lass Dear readers, we hereby submit The labor of many fair days, Now if it with favor you greet, Your kindness this labor repays. Now, please, ere we start on this Venture Give audience first to a word, It is, that we've written no slam- ming Nor should any slam be inferred. And also we crave of your patience, A great deal of it we shall need. Our words have to fit with our rhym- mg, So little to quaintness pay heed. So, after much long delaying, We'll now our epic present, A It's time! we hear you all saying. Let's go, then! Are ears kindly bent? We know of two maidens, the sort Who are now satisfied with their lot- Miss Heller just longs to be short, While Miss Mary Abata does not! Straight and stalwart -the Major , A veritable hero is he. Our play brought forth his abil'ty, But he'd practised before that, you see. Gladys Andrews Cmay Fortune exalt her!J Her talent in writing's no mystergy And one thing's as sure as Gibraltar, She made a good job of our History! Albert Casale likes the French, And how he can sling it - Oh My! In the French play he sure did repay His teacher's hard efforts. Some guy! s Page Twenty-t'wo get CHRONICLE Ives'- 08771 Miss Arbour may possibly be A hairdresser great some fine day. The gentlemen all you will see Asking permanent waves sans delay. O'er our ship of state he presides, And wisely and well has he done. His name - have you guessed it? - is Dortg He shall find his place in the sun. Miss Beebe's a talented lassie Who plays the violin very well, Her stories are also quite classy, Some people would say they were aswell. Our class boasts a giant, no less, From Milldale comes Lou - quite a way. In sports he excels every time, An upstanding young man, one would say. , Do you know that Miss Bingham's a lawyer? In equity she doth excel. Just think of the lucky employer Whose lawsuits she'll manage so well! Up in the clouds is our Howie, At least, there his thoughts often gog To aviate is his ambition, The great world his genius shall know. All hail to our young Mistress Mary! Whose last name, you know, is Bitel. She never is one bit contrarv, But behaves most remarkably well.
