THE GLEAM. - Lives on her farm so great and fair, And Grace became a farmer's bride, And now she ruleshher acres wide. Alas, alas, Vida has come to be A teacher of solid geometry, ' Here, there and everywhere may be seen, The popular, Sister Lucy's Magazine, But William, early drifted out 'west Where he owns a ranch, Uncle Bills Rest, And Morton went to the busy east Where he became rich to say the least. Bertha journeyed back once more, To her native state, of the golden ore, Where she teaches the science of song, Labors incessantly and long. Spurgeon wen-t to a 'Varsity far away, And now he is Bishop of Ballarat 5 Allie vowed she'd be an old maid, But that air castle sure did fade, For she, too, has changed her name, Edna has forged 'her way to fame, She left her home for dear old France, ' She learned to paint in the home of the dance, But she returned to Missouri once more, Preceded by honors and fame galore. And Jessie, too, to fame did climb, The greatest musician of her time. U Kathelene married a merchant well-to-do, And julia is working and fighting too, For temperance and woman's rights, And May, after seeing the old world's sights Returned, and ended at the bridal altar, Myrtle with many a trial and falter, ' At lastdid scale the heights of fame, And on -every tongue is Annie's name, . Q She writes for many a magazine, Such as Sister Lucy's and The Gleamf' Georgia, too, became a bride, One man's treasure, one man's pride. Nellie eloped with an English prince, And hasn't been seen or heard of since, And Margaret's book's are all the rage, Read by people of every age. But Eva left to return again After catching one of -the richest of men. , Sybil, too, has made her mark in life, In busy, strenuous, commercial strife, And O-tto switched from prose to verse, But found he had gone from bad to worse. Twenty-four names are here told in rhyme, Soldiers living in every land and clime, Who fulfilled their school-day's ambition In high and responsible positions. OTTO A. SCI-IMID
