School of Horticulture • ( Class Song Oh! we’re the class of ’28, But we’re not so sedate. Although we’re learning how to farm, We don’t dance in the barn. We’re leaving here this very year To learn to earn our way. And we hope some day to make good pay, So you can hear us say: We have some girls out here, Who love to work and play all year. We sure have lots of fun, And we’re sorry when it’s done. More girls should learn this trade, And then they’ll not be in the shade. For it’s the “rep” that we get, ’Cause we’ve got lots of pep, This class of ’28. —“Sunny” and Han sell Borst. -4 23

Wise Acres •♦4S Class Will As there are so many Juniors and so few Seniors, we have decided that each Senior has at least three good points; and as we would not like to appear selfish one can’t help thinking that if we give one-third to each Junior the world in general will be better. “Sunny” Borst wishes to will Rosalind her social ability and hopes she may enjoy her class meetings as “Sunny” did during her two years. “Pat” Brautigam leaves her “It” to Lucille Porter. “Ducky” Dornbirer bequeaths her reserved nature to “Robin.” “Dougy” gives Mike Bryant her courage so she will not be frightened by De Wolfe. Anna Nagy leaves to Clara Reed her ability to reduce. “Smitty” gives her taste in color to Miss Meyers. Drayton Taylor wills to Adele Walker her love for the school. “Teddy” Wenz leaves Mary McBride her far away look. “Sunny” wills the living room to Virginia Wilson so that she will not be forced to entertain her friends with the cows. “Smitty” bequeaths her success as a bicyclist to “Jerry.” Sue leaves her laundry and radiators to Gisela. “Pat” gives her enthusiasm for church to Joan Hogg. “Sunny” wills her sunny disposition to “Penny.” “Ducky” bequeaths all things profane to “Polly.” Sue gives her surplus relatives to Jack Hornor in case of necessity. “Teddy” wills her English sense of humor to “Rosebud.” “Pat” leave her excess baggage to Betty Ridgway. Sue, our council and guide, leaves all the gray matter she can spare, that she may find peace and rest in the future. The entire class solemnly bequeathes all the little Juniors to the wise and benevolent Faculty to educate and dispose of later on as they see fit, and also to atone for their (the Faculty’s) great sorrow in having to bid us “Farewell.” - 8( 22 )§►—
