I Anna is the only one Who can sit near the boys. She is very modest And never makes much noise. Amy has a wandering mind We often wonder why Her thoughts will stray so far away Sometime they’ll reach the sky. Velma prim and so sedate She never likes to smile Tho’; we have heard, there’s someone Whom her sweet smile doth beguile. Maybelle is a dear As more than one has said. When the teachers quiz her She is always scared to death. Grace is our only poet At these rhymes, she probably laughs But if she ■ an do better We’ll give her a life long pass.

MCMXII. Come listen little girls and boys While we a tale relate, About a certain Senior ('lass Who never stayed out late. Iva is a willful, headstrong- girl. Who thinks it lots of fun; To have a dance in Albright’s Hall And dance till rising sun. Kate is as meek as Moses. Never breaks a rule Always stays in nights Is never late at school. Ruth always was an awful flirt But has of late reformed. Will probably become a nun And by no one will be scorned. Joanna is like a Fairy She is so small and slight She is like a shark in history Her side will win alright. Edna is so frivolous! But to the commandments true. She likes to fight with ‘‘Bricktop” And always is true blue There’s Beulah too, who likes the lake She loves Themistocles? Her pastime is debating But the country’s sure to please. Ethel is the stubborn one For a Singer she must be Although we’ve tried to reason Her error she can’t see.

We haven’t heard Earl play it in so long, we have nearly forgotten. Miss Lewis doesn’t notice the girls the first period in the morning. They must feel slighted. Have you a pony in your class, Pass it on -- ’Twas not meant for just one lass, Pass it on--- Let it travel down the aisles, Let it help another’s trials; Help us win the teacher’s smiles, Pass it on. Ethel Hayden has accepted a position in the Central Milling Co. We do not know as yet, when this takes place. Ask Nettie if she likes Wilson’s chocolates. One good thing about La Baron. He is always “reddy.” The students in Ancient History better save their appetites for that spread in January.
