Our little Sisters So let us reminisce about Our days of work and fun. Now our big year has ended And yours will soon begin, First row--Anne Simpson, Gainor Small, Sylvia Clement, Shirley Jones, Alice Allison Krygier, Ty Learn, Sibyl Reese, Second row - -Setsu Inoue, Delores Russell, Frances Vollenweider, Paddy Stull, Joan Bennett, Chung Al Youn, Third row —Margaret Economidou, Effie Brown, Harriet Blankenbuehler, Robin Dougher, Bernice Johnson, Connie Ptvnicny. Absent: Pauline Grosso, Louise Leondiadou. Remember when School started-You knew not what to do. One flower looked like another And milking was Greek to you. As the weeks passed quickly by Our friendships grew the stronger. The corn roast and the Square Dance-We wanted them to last longer. The fellows from N. A. C. Caused a big sensation. But when Peanut week came ’round, We were ready for vacation. Two long weeks went slowly by As we struggled through exams. You vowed that when finals came You would not be one who crams. The spring brought our May Day, With gaiety and flowers. And everyone hoped and prayed That there would be no showers. And now the time has swiftly come To bid you all adieu. We won't forget the happy days Spent, Little Sisters, with you. We wish you in the coming year-Good luck and all success; And hope the days at S of H Will bring thoughts of happiness. 16
