THE TALISMAN Hughes Blake Smith's a comic boy, And whom you all know wellg He's always glad in English, When Trinkle rings the bell. There's Mary Fern, Edith and Katherine Who seldoin get called downg For they are always busy, And never look around. Next comes Walter, Earl and Everett, Three good boys, you seeg But they get called quite often For they're noisy as can be. Maurine, Gladys and Sarah Study every day, And they always have their lessons, As is the usual way. Then come Magnus, Don and Arthur, Who are very quick to learng But they're always into mischief When Trinkle's back is turned. Then last are Lois and Gertrude, And both you know quite well, So I'll not say much about them But go right on and tell What I think of Miss Rutger Who teaches English, you seep You might search throughout this land But would find none as good as she. There's Mr. May, a fine young man, And a very good teacher, toog I-le's fine in teaching Botany And he knows just what to do. Miss Miller teaches German And Latin just as wellg And you might search about the town But would find none that could excel. Miss Colliver teaches Mathematics And also Domestic Art And she's very good in sewing For she's very, very smart. Mr. Trinkle is Professor, And you bet he is no foolg And I hope they get him back to teach Another term of school. -Jennie Turman.

We always have our lessons, No matter how hard they may beg And you will never find us loafing, Each one's as busy as a bee. And there's one good old Prophet VVhose name is Ross, you knowg He's a very good old fellow As the look on his face will show. He's a very good student, And studies most of the timeg When he goes into English, He always makes a nine. Then there is Gladys Watkins, Who is a very good student, you see, And there are many others Almost as good as she. There's one by the name of Edwin Who is quite a mischevious ladg He gets called down quite often, But it never makes him mad. There's little Cubby Burgett, Who is quite a cunning herog He made me laugh in German And the teacher gave me zero. Then there's Nina and Tina Dudley, The two little twins, you know, They always have their lessons, Because they study so, world
