OUR LITTLE EXTRACTS To begin with- And Here ' s How- Now we know you ' ve often wondered Just what we have to say To our prepossessing diaries At the closing of the day. The Twins My! we hope that by and by They ' ll learn to tell my twin from I! And Lucy No, not another dance for me (There ' s none in sight that I can see.) Gin next Dearest Diary — What do you know! Next Friday he asked me to go to that show! Then Welthyan I received a T L concerning my hair. ' Tis said it ' s arranged with the utmost care! Florie too I ' ve decided at last to get those shoes. The heels are four inches — so hang the room dues! Jane next Went to the movies and saw — Guess who? and , and oh, too! . And Irene We went up-town, Marcelle and I And some brand new wavelets did I buy. Then Virginia Je veux dire que j ' aime Francais. Get E plus — one some day I may! Emma too Oh, there ' s a young lady named . In her presence I dunno know what to say! Next Liz Twenty baskets in a row — with my ball. I shot at one — and made them all. And Barbara ' Tis a hard life — but up at five I do get. For, for combing my curls my alarm I must set. Then comes Bunny Dear Diary — but, oh wait! — there goes the phone. (He ' ll talk for an hour and my work isn ' t done!) And Al Oh! For some room dues! This class is degrading. I fear that my broad hints they ' re carefully evading! Page 2 6
