- A Seed - by Lyle Smith Gr. X If in the soil we plant a weed A weed will spring to light, But if a little blossom seed A flower will greet the light. What e'er the seed we chance to sow we know that we shall findg The harvest that from it will grow Will be its own in kind. ' O.D.H.S. by Marie Wilson Gr. X I think that I shall never see A school where I would rather be. A school with such a patient staff - A time to work, a time to laugh. Where readin! and writin? are carefully taught And battles in science are thoroughly fought. When leavin' it's doors I!m quite contentg I feel the day has been well spent. The school that tops the hill to-day, I will remember when old and gray. - A Substitute - by Betty Ann Richardson Gr. X If perchance you cannot sleep, No longer try to count the sheepg Just count the bills you haven't paid - The line is longer, I'm afraid. by John Hughes Gr. X. There was a young man from New Ducket Who too soon in life kicked the bucketg His friends were all sad But his wife was so glad 'Cause now she could get a new bucket.

- A Day At O.D.H.S. - by Frank Speers Gr. As we enter the hall Utis hard to tell From which end of the hall we hear a bellg I hurry to French at no slow rate For the motto in French is, WNever be laten. Says Mr. Percy, uwenve got all weekn When no one even ventures to speak, For in assembly we were cast down Especially those who live in the towng ' Mr. Cline had said in a very deep voice, WAt noon the seniors make a great noise, . So now the juniors will get out earlyn. Now wouldn't that make your hair turn curly? Then after French we move up the hall In a line like the path of a rugby ball To history, and ?tis sad to say, We're due for another test toaday. After History we proceed to Maths In which is written our epitaph, Where we learn rules to add and divide If we donUt'want a very rough ride Down the hall to the Principalus station Where you always can get a two-week vacation. we then go on to the Latin class If fr m Grade Ten we wish to pass. With nae'sN and nam?sU, being very wary, we struggle through the vocabularya Then after dinner when all do dine, At Mr. ClineUs door appears a line. He's running a history film toeday About Mickey Mouse, I heard them say. The bell soon rings and Science comes next Q I pity the person who has no texto And so drags on the afternoon And the 4,10 bell rings not too soon. Then Mrg Rawn cleans up the m es, Concluding a day at O0D,H.S. ESE There was an old man from Kentucky, Who walked down a road that was muckyg He sank to his neck , And said, 90h by heck, Now I wouldnnt say that I?m.luckyN. by Barbara Durkin Sta Peter: WHow did you get up here?W John P.z nFluN.

- The Seasons - by Bill Harper Gr. X The autumn leaves are turning browng Old man winter is comin' 'round With plenty of snow and lots of sleet - Just enough to wet our feet. Out come our skates and hockey pucksg ' Next come the chickens and roasted ducks, with gravy, dressing and trimmings too, I like Christmas. How about you? Now the snow does really blow, Oh! yes, there's some one needs a towg I find he's a stranger in this part, And the old towhtruck, just will not start. Spring is coming around, I hope, When I can take off this heavy coat - Exams are coming, the teachers say, And then, O happy holiday! - Homework Q by Sheila Welsh Gr. X Homework isn't what you call fun But according to teachers it must be doneg You sit and think 'till its ten o'clock But now itfs time for you to stop. At school next day - that busy hive You find you're still there at half-past five. The teacher says, UYou now may leave But, do your homework, will you please? - gl Poem - by Marion Hunter Gr. X A few lines of poetry I'm requested to write, But to tell you the truth, I can't think to-nightg The baby is crying, she's ready for bed, The radio is blaringg the Lone Ranger!s dead. So in all this confusion, try as I might, As I told you before, I can't think to-night.
