18 THE TATLER—192 7 Faculty Poem As I wandered through the spacious halls And gazed at the pennants on the walls, I pondered upon what I should write About the teachers so wise—so bright. They all deserve an account of fame If a pupil fails, they’re not to blame. I don’t really know just what to say, Each one is so good in his own way. Mr. Cordrey must come first of all Our principal—so smart and so tall For four long years he has guided us Through every kind of tempest and fuss. Mr. Smith comes—close following him Always looking neat, always so trim. He teaches Physics in such a way His pupils love him more day by day. We have our dear class advisor One who is excelled by none wiser; Her name is Miss Dryden, don’t you know She makes friends wherever she might go. Junior English, Miss Morris teaches To great heights her ambition reaches She is, too, our mother confessor And tells our sins to THE professor. Mrs. Pope, so jolly and full of pep, Has earned for herself a brilliant “rep.” Out of “can’t” she has taken the “t” And taught the word “can” to “goofs” like me. Miss Porter just loves to seem so wise, And at Mr. (?) she rolls her eyes, But he has long been captivated And for a year has gladly waited.
