1921, The champion W. H. S. A TRIBUTE T0 MY CLASS Slowly, surely, spring draws near With breezes soft, perfume inlaid, And 'ere it comes my fond adieus To friend and teacher must be paid. Faithful my class has been to me, Stood by me in every trial. A tribute I'm sure I owe to them And so I make this avowal. That before my pen has ceased from work, Before my school is ended, To each and every member here A tribute shall be tended. A critic, Lyden, I see in you, But a well learned critic I admit 'tis true. For debating Henry is one I would dare With any other debater compare. Diamond, what does thy name signify? A Jewel precious to a loved one's eye. For fabulous tales, O, Thaddeus, 'tis true The fame will undoubtedly fall to you. For a short and plump, good-natured friend You'll find Louise the best in the end. A basketball star the school will lose When Garth gives it his last adieus. Joking, laughing, scolding Marie Is the bookkeeping belle, 'tis plain to see. O John, thou sleeper, I bid thee awake And cease your dreams 'ere 'tis too late. Joyce, my dear, you'll always be A good and true kind friend to me. Mildred, or rather, Mid, I should say, Is always ready to smile gloom away. Bryan, taciturn and quiet- ' I'll wager he studies home at night. Tie, your wistful eyes of brown They seem to speak of world renown. Charles, Charles, you little man, You stay as quiet as you possibly can. Lucille, named the star of the class, I have no wish to dispute it, my lass. Wrex I am sure is the ladies' man, You can never see him without one at hand. For a girl who is industrious and jovial I beg to present our blue-eyed Hazel. Our class comedian Elmer plays, He's brimming over with jokes and lays. And I know Lorraine is really not shy, She on? pretends so when teachers are mg . I think Byron came from the Golden West Where bronchos are broke with fun and jest. Writha, virtuous and youthful too Is another student of the faithful few. There's Waldo who of course you know Is an enthusiastic fan of the radio. .. l 1 I ' Orval, you would not think so, but say- 1-le's the brilliant star of the Senior play. 'l'o myself there need no tribute be For I am just palin little me. To designate you, John, from another h I'll call you a jolly good Bonenberger. E MILDRED POEIILHN. THINGS OF IMPORTANCE Red's Tie .
