22 THE TATLE R—1 9 2 6 Miss Erwood is one of the Siamese twins. For without Miss Wootton you seldom find her. But all the same in her English class, She can work it so her pupils mind her. What I could say about Miss Straughn, Would not be half good enough, For she surely has lent us a helping hand, Over discouraging places, deep and rough. In Mrs. Disharoon’s reception hall, Where English is taught every day, The “Sophs” are shown all the rules and things, Which somehow in their minds won’t stay. What could we have done without Miss Dryden? I hardly dare to say, For she has given us life’s great lessons, Which we can never repay. To Miss Parker and Miss Messick The girls owe their Domestic art, For such are the things each girl should know, If she desires the key to a young man’s heart. I’m sure you all know Miss Mildred Morris, For everyone thinks her a dear, And when she finishes with the Dramatic Club, We will all claim kin to Shakespeare. There is always a promise in room number four, From Miss Porter, we often hear, That if we listen to her set of rules, We’ll all be stenographers in two years. “A man’s chief art is the use of the saw,” And this, Mr. Unger has instilled in our hearts, For he teaches the boys Manual Training, Which is one of our School’s fine arts. There is one well loved young lady. Who teaches English every day; She comes from the town called Pittsville, It’s Miss Davis, in her Ford Coupe. Algebra has been studied through and through, By Miss Ida Morris, and carefully stored Away in her mind, until I’m sure she could Teach in some large college from her algebraic hoard.
