1920 T R A X SC E N D E NT A LI ST 1920 He just smiles and wins them all. Erich always comes up smiling, All day long his face is bright. Never studies, never worries, Things will always turn out right. Miriam wants to go to college; No one knows just where or when. A degree is her ambition. It may be an M. A. N.

They call him “Chuck” and he sure slings it When helping “dad” down at The Star. His ambition is to travel, See tbe world both near and far. Nona is a quiet girl, Very much so when she’s peeved. Still she knows a thing or two, So be sure you’re not decieved. Alma came to us this year, She is business through and through; As a typist she’s a wonder, At dictation “beat” by few. Elda, tall, sedate and stately. Came to us from Ohlman town, No matter what may be her life work She is sure to win renown. Now I have this poem finished; 13
