SCHOOL AGAIN Wlhen vacation time is ended And the school year has begun It means that all of us youngsters Must leave all our fun And go to work in earnest For I'm 'sure you will agree That if we are a success in life There's work for you and me. There are some who're really trying To climb the ladder of success But in spite of this the most of us Are calling them fresh , However, if they keep on trying As we see they're started out, By the time that School has ended They'll know what it's about. The Sophomores are a funny group They're neither first nor last, But they are very happy to know The freshman year is past. And that they now are venturing Toward the Junior Class And after they've left the sophomore year, They have nothing else to fear. The Juniors are a busy bunch, For they have much to do. They have to bolster up their bank And give the senior's banquet, too. And when the term is ended They leave 'school with a cheer, For all successfully have Reached their senior year. We wonder as we gaze around Upon the senior class Why the happy days of High School ln spite of all-must pall. With tears and sighs and fond farewells We bid our friends adieu As they hand us our diplomas We know that we are through. Teachers, classmates and dear friends 'Tis true that we must part, And out into this cruel world Each graduate will start. We hope our friends good wishes As we go on our way And that we will grow better With the passing of each day. Ida Norland -l-P.H.S.l STRONG VERB If you had a little more -spunk, Miss Mc- Pherson said sternly to one of her boys, You would stand better in your class. Now, do you know what spunk is? Yes, Ma'am replied Rex, f'It's the past participle of spank. --P.H.S.l-- TIT-FOR-TAT Ray Laughlin: Woman is nothing but a rag, a bone, and a hank of hair.
