Ode to tos mm W O herels t0 Mindeis memory sweet, and to his Nibs K. J,! We've lived With you in sorrow, but with many a gladdening ray: You've earned your little salary. for oft we made things hum But we are it the undersigned. the real LUX LUMINUM. Iim Lillian Pence, the short brunette nor thick nor thin you see. But watch me walk and hear me talk tin Germany to O. B, Salutatory? yes that's llmell-I play in classic style, And bluff my loving teacher as I meet him with my smile. And I am lll'ii'. the nervous blonde. I live on Willard Street, My coat is brown. my furs are brownel walk with both my feet ; And do I skate? straight Just watch me drop a faint or two and fool the native5-wait! O quit, now, Sprigg, or I'll tell lIrloodie' And Iim a bulky, brief brunette; my name is uCousin Gert, My sailor suit is filled with me and so is my short skirt; I fix my hair with proper care on Main Street where I live, And use my switchiness 0n Tramp when driving out with Viv. And I am Minde's little Lamb, who goes to school each day, I'm 5hort and slender, not too smart, a blonde, a triHe gay; I part my hair upon the side, I'm solid with the boys, My chief delight is limburg cheese, the kind that makes the notse. And I am Houdieu bashful boy, pale. straight back, funny walk. I try to beat the others time. tho' I am not much on talk; I have no girl especially. but Minnie loves me true. If I am slyi I'm innocent, and, Minde, here's to you! okeiooiaotwiooeweootwwemtoowotootcoiootcotooieoiwtroiooieoicoiookoemw .L- And I am Captain HSpecs, you know, I'm editor, bedad, I lay on salve and am beloved, a very proper lad; I'm bright and know itkhear me blOmey all the best ene dorsed, There's nothing thatls impossible, for I can dance when forced. And I am also Captain. but a difterent crowd for me, Heart smasher, base ball pitcher. I'm the Fiery sport l'O. B. ; I like the Park 'tis sweet to loafe ethis is the joy of life, Cash register's not needed here, I know nThis is my wife.u And I'm cometist, talking Doc. the General History shark, I call on older girls, but then, you've heard the name of Clark; Piano stunts I do which sound. loud pedal. like my socks, I dance in double parlors. and thus save my feet some knocks. I sign myself mere Johnson, but I'm Gloomy Gus, the Dude, Ilm always late and in hard luck, but neverV never rude; N0: Petersburg is not my home. and Smith's a common name, I come to school just twice a month, but get there just the same. The last is celebrated Bud, salt spreader, Kisser, Sprigg, A walker tor J. Walkery and a winder, but no prig; An eater and a swiper, who is never donef but ltraw, A writer of ten hundred words, renowned for cheek and jaw. We're glad the past is over. and that we can start anew. That time will cast its smiling ray on things we now must rue; But when we sum all strangers in the change of now and then, Wherein you'll see us as we were. the merry, happy ten.
