Elilgllillfillillilill '5 Class Poem We Seniors all of '29 Send this message to you All our habits we reveal And bring before your view. Just ask Vivian Adams If you wish a thing well done She always leads the class with A's For her it is mere fun. Earl Bradley is our president And a worthy one is he The president of U. S. A. We're sure some time he'll be. Anna is always busy We, all know that of course She's manager of the B. B. Girls And chief of the Police force. Elsie is so quiet That you don't know when she's round, Ten words a day's her limit, She smiles, but makes no sound. Next is Gerald Jean He's very short, but spry He always has his lessons His motto's Do or die. Louisa is a dainty miss To sing is her delight. To say she has the sweetest voice I know we are quite right. Next is Agnes Mathas fEach one has his choicej But she has an interest in all Especially the boys. Bob Ho'd is an athlete He always takes a care What ever the game may be To play it fair and square. Howard has helped us four long years. Success in life to gain He has done his very best You'll see 'tis not in vain. Hazel is a dark eyed lass Without her We should think That is thi's chain of seniors There would be a missing link. Audrey's a pretty Senior girl I'm sure you know her well She has a purpose in life, That, you can surely tell. - When every thing goes wrongx And life don't seem worth while We just call Genola For she always wears a smile. Albert is a ladies' man He's better kn-own as 'Bake' He laughs and jokes with all the girls What difference does it make? Max is a man of words And you can plainly see He's as good at anything As a senior ought to be. Carl is always ready For duty at any time If we were all like him Our lives would be sublime. Helen is reliable In all things great and small And when it comes to lessons She's sure to have them all. Ralph is a good student He's very lean and tall His steps he always watches Cause he'd have so far to fall Grace has helped us along Through many a struggle and strife She is a friend of all And sure of success in life. Charles is very serious Does his work with a smile For four long years he's studied We are sure its all worth while. Dora is our Editor Think of her as 'Ad-a-line When you ponder o'er the Seniors Of the year of '29. The author in our Senior group Is Evelyn, calm and prim. When her heart is in her labor She works with force, vigor, and vim We bid you all farewell Our High School days are done If one heart we have gfaddened Then we go with object won. WI!
