FRANKLIN ACADEMY HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL OUR GANG By HELEN COMSTOCK, '27 is for all of us, so studious all day. But what a lot of fun we have, when Prof goes away. is for the bell, Prof rings with such care, It means, if we are not in study hall, we must soon be there. is for Constance, the bad old girl, At her teachers, saucy words, she often does hurl. is for Dick and Donald, two little boys, Dick is the one that Florence enjoys. is 'or English, which we all need, A First we have Grammar and then we read. is for the French I Class, which we think is so nice, If Paul were not in' it, it would lose all its spice. is for Green, that is what the Freshmen seem. To make a hit in Hi h School is their fondest dream. is for Miss Harris, so kind to us all, But oh how strict in her study hall! is for Idioms, taught lcy Miss Harris, We couldn't say them very well, because they came from Pa is for John, so noisy and loud, Of that En lish pupil, Miss Bedwin is proud. is for locker keys, which we must use Prof says if we don't, our possessions we'll lose. is for Lockers, built in the wall, Used by everyone, and enjoyed by all. is for Melva, a Senior so bright Editor of the Post and of her class, the shining light. is for Noon, the time we go home, At one fifteen back to school we must roam. is for Orren, so quiet and shy, He doesn't dare look up when a girl passes by. is for the Post on which we've all worked. We've all done our duty. no one has shirked. is for Questions, asked by the teachers. To ask us no more we always beseech her. is for the rules we obey with such care. They really are tiresome, but I suppose they are fair. is for Summer, in June the graduation, And after that the long-looked for vacation. is for Time, Tone, and Tune, the old piano lacks all these. Frances, you do your level best, but play it slower, please. is for Uoroar, when school is let out All the teachers and pupils begin to sing and shout. is for Vrooman, who leads in the singing While the whole chapel with discord is ringing. is for Weiners we used at the roast, Of how many we ate we are not going to boast. is for Exercises, Mr. Brindisl g ves with a vinq, There are lots of them, about ten for each limb. is for Yeast, that some of the girls eat, To make them rise so high, that they can't be beat. is for Zero we sometimes get on a test, We'd get more than that if we did our level best. ril
