There’s a bright and winsome bonny lass Among this distinguished Senior class. From Eastman she came And Allen’s her name Now, down through the years to fame she’ll pass. There’s a girl named Ethel in our school Who lives right up to the Golden Rule, She’s not very tall But she’s a friend to all And we’re sorry that she is now through school. A Senior there is and Weighner’s her name Theres a smile on her face, for all is the same; She sits in row one Is just heaps of fun And we’re all very fond of this likable dame. Among our Seniors there’re two named Ruth About whom might be said very much, forsooth, They are both shining stars, Probably seen way on Mars, These two brilliant Seniors by the name of Ruth. And then there’s Agnes who’s a jolly good fellow With a voice that is meek and peculiarly mellow Of mischief she’s full And marks she does “pull Nine Rahs! For this happy and jolly, good fellow. There is a young lady named Kramer, For her marks there’s no one could blame her, For she always is steady With work always ready, And her shy, quiet manner becomes her. Our Helen was always a favorite of High And when she’s mentioned we hear Hank sigh: “She’s sure some girl I’d call her a pearl, When Helen’s a nurse to fame she will fly. We all know that Lea and Ina are tall, But that is certainly no fault at all, For in reaching the top, They won’t ever stop, In life’s journey they certainly never will fall. (Continued to On the other hand Leone and Nona are small, And neither in her studies does fall, Both good books have read, And that’s quite ’nuff said And renown to them someday will call. O’ shy little maidenly “Viv , At the top of Fort Hill she does live, Her manners are mild, About her painting we’re wild, Fame will greet this Senior called “Viv . There is a young fellow called “Buds Who washes his face in soap-suds, He has curly hair, His complexion is fail, And he wears the “niftiest duds. Our Senior Irene is tres, tres, tall, But that really makes no difference at all She has a smile on her face And her marks are first rate, And she’s ready to help when you call. “A semi-circle we all say When Hannah comes our way But if she is fat, What difference makes that? For we all like this Senior who is gay. Our Mildred from Eastman did “hail And through our High School did “sail , She’s not large or small And she’s a friend to all And in life’s journey we’re sure she’ll not fail. And now for the Senior named Baumer, In history she sure is a “hummer , She studies all day Yet she finds time to play And we’re sorry to lose her this summer. And then there’s a lady called Andy Who has “come in very handy, And since she came ’Tis not quite the same, At driving a car, she’s a dandy. When it comes to a fashion plate rare Then Hank Vanek is certainly there— He has clothes galore, Nor did we realize before, That Hank’s presence is sought everywhere. A bright little maid is she A smile on her face we see, She studies all day, It’s just Esther’s way, A success she will surely be. In her studies Grace never did tarry, And of mischief she never was wary, To her music you’d hark, For she could sing like a lark, This “Strawberry Blonde of old Prairie.
