Bloomington High School, The Gothic, 1918, Page 23

Description:	To Congress goeth Marjorie along,First Indiana Senatress so strong;There Roscoe gets his orators degrees,And fame that rivals old Demosthenes;Fair Olive will be wooed by many lads,And then will settle when she tires of fads;John Campbell is a protege as yet,But soon his Art will start to strut and fret.Our Lessie, with her noble, lofty mien,Will make a high school teacher, wise and keen;And Glen will join the agriculturists.And fight his many battles with his fists;Heres one whose ambitions we know quite well,Cleon wall lead a band, we do foretell;John Huntington four years from now youll seeWearing a gold Phi Beta Kappa key;A voclist so renowned, in Europe sings,Much fame to our clear class, Fat Pleasants brings;And William H., good wisdoms own sage king,Doth now perform in Barnums circus ring;Yes, William Rawles at last has changed his ways,Through common sense, imbibed in later days;He passed by all the other girls he met,And tied up with a woman suffragette;And Marie Scholl, our literary star,Has nought her splendid triumph to debar;While Mary Thornton is one of our stars,The leading; girl in Lucks musical farce;And Muir Kenney will be a judge, no doubt,With knowledge of the law criminals rout;Oh! Step aside, let famous painter pass!Tis our E. Andrews, once a high school lass;So M. Louise rejected each in turn.Behind her all her bridges did she burn.Now all alone she dwells in solemn state,Morose, remorseful, hers an old maids fate;And Ralph, once captain of our high school craft,Is captain still, and of no less a raft.To U. S. Jackies he does give commands,And steers his ship to far and distant lands;Aubrey isnt what youd call a loafer,With high ideals, he started as a chauffeur;And Clara Borden teaches school in Maine,Much knowledge through her do the children gain;Fern Deckard enjoyed single life untilShe married the good mayor of Smithville;May followed after his old man, you know,He runs a lunch across from the depot;Then Hally Ratliff lives on navy beans,And tells how he once chased Hun submarines;And Gladys M. becomes a preachers wife,And lives next door to Dona all her life;Elizabeth Fergusons dream ship finally cameAfter shed taught four years at Notre Dame;Contrary to the single days gone by,Pearl R. her common sense does not deny;
