Francis Sce our dancer is A shiek no less is he, And may he dance the years away All through eternity. In our class we have a flirt, And we've always called her Gert, Up from Milldale she does come With smiling lips and chewing gum. From out the west comes our own Joe He hasn't got a single foe, For he has never deigned to frown On anyone around the town. Gladys types at a merry speed Fast and perfect is her creed. Whenha teacher's away or ill, Her position she capably fills. Bob lives out on a farm, Where crickets chirp 'til dawng But rustic scenes dull not his brain For he general honors did attain!

Now, don't you think that's quite an art For one who is both clever and smart? Mildred with her tresses long Lives on Academy Hill, She can make a cake that's light, And sing a song with many a trill. Harry's taken a course in Ag , His interest there will never lag. In after years upon his farm, He'll practice it without any harm. Another who on committees does serve And a lot of credit deserves, Libby Wallace, an old friend, Who to the Dramatic Club's business attends. Marie is a maiden, Slim, and tall and neat, And if you ask the boys, They'll tell you she is sweet.
