We, the class of '36, after deep thought and consideration, have made our last will and testament, and being sound of mind and clear of judgment, hereby make this will and revoke all others as to date.

And now I find it rather hard to write a little rhyme About our teacher who's been with us only a short lenght of time. Our efficient commercial teacher- Miss Mutti is her name. We're all sorry to say good-bye--but we are not to blame. And now we are all very sorry To say good-bye to our friend, Miss Shorey Who has made us solve problems in arithmetic But I prefer to do rhythmetic',. With Miss Child's guidance We've learned much about science, About the weather, moon, and the stars Of Venus, Saturn, jupiter, and Mars. To Coach Fontana we bid farewell And is it necessary for us to tell About the donkey who down and fell When he made a basket, Oh, did the crowd yell! Miss Bedford who teaches English II and III Keeps her home room very quiet and orderly, And after the tardy bell, each pupil as he rises Continues for live minutes doing morning exercises! Mr. Stowe has been with us but a short time But we all know him and he teaches Civicsg Mr. Rathbun who's home room teacher of large Room 9, Helped direct our plays and teaches Science and Physics. ,b Page Sixteen -+91 CHRONICLE 144'- We'll say goodbye to Miss Edstrom Who taught us long ago About Ben Franklin and the Mohicans Of Long john Silver and Ivanhoe. Miss Beach is busy most of the time Teaching the glee clubs rhythm and rhyme. U She teaches music and directs the orchestra too, My! but she certainly has a lot to do! Farewell, Miss johnson, we don't think you could find A secretary who is always so willing and kind To help any pupil who may be in need Of a pass or etc.-you were our friend indeed. Although Miss Bristol worked in our school We didn't see her much as a general rule. She was busy typing, and such and such But we all knew and liked her very much. And now this poem wouldn't be com plete If I forgot to tell you who furnished us heat. I-Ie's .gone to school for a good long time, Mr. Stewart, and his dog Pal-rain or shine! A This 22nd verse-this 19th day of june Completes the final thought- Completes the good days our school time has brought Those same days we'1l never see again As we're leaving from here to see what we can gain. So now until the other classes come back in the fall, We'll say farewell to underclassmates, teachers and all!
