Rowena Hawkings Well here's an ode to Miss Hawkins Of languages heed to her talkin's She bakes in the sun, T And all fun doth shun, Till her hair turns brown like her stockinfs. Miss Diamond Of Miss Diamond Illl tell, Her name she will sell, To some lucky guy, Some day By 'n By, In the meantime with teaching she'll dwell. Miss McIvor Miss McIvor's the one, ' Piling marks by the ton, Her aim to be teaching All alone to be screeching, At some poor urchin-what fun. Dorothy Machin She answers to the name of Miss Machin, From the states she doth get all the fashin On Fridays she goes Whether it snows or it 'blows From the city in a little Ford dashinh- Wilfred Brown There is a young chap in -1 A, His name is Wilf Brown by the way ,Tis said he did chatter, And the girls would he flatter, Till his seat was moved from them for aye. Charlotte McKechnie Tho' Charlotte is her name, She has the craze for fame, Her chief hobby is cats, Snakes, lizards or bats, To her they all are the same. 42

Annie Armstrong Young Annie was a maiden so prim In the air ever up was her chin She walked always just so And her Latin did know When she didn't, O Gosh! what a din. Olive Tufts s Olive Tufts was a clever young lass, Who never a-tall temptation could pass To rhyme us in poems Which have oft caused us groans, When we heard them all read out in class. Margaret McMurchy Of Latin she never did tire, But soaked in words wire upon wire, For loafing she was quite aware, Led not indeed to the golden stair, But was the prirnrose path To the everlasting fire. Edith Causey Some call her Carrots-that's right, Round the head especially she's bright, To the form of 4 A, She comes not to play, So in future she'll be a Bright Light. Harry Hettle Who is it that drives a new Star? VVho travels very quickly and very far? Who is it whose engine boils like a kettle? Oh, I know, its Harry Hettle. Ella Brentnell Oh Ella-care-free Ella, In this form happened to fella, Though she does all her work, In her spares she will shirk, To study and let us as well-a. 43
