GRADUATI» FROM ARLETA
At the close of the January. 1920,
term Arleta turned out a class of 19.
13 girls and six boys. Most of them
entered high school. On Thursday
afternoon of last week the 8a grade
tendered the graduates a reception in
the assembly room. It was a surprise
and was a well arranged and highly
enjoyable affair with games, pro
gram, and plenty oi good eats, and
needless to say was appreciated by
the recipients.
On Friday night there was a class
party at the home of one of the
graduates. Miss Elsie Schmidt, 4115
63rd street, at which was given a
splendid program of games, tests,
»'citations, rcudings, etc., with all the
usual class poetry, prophecy and
wills. Refreshments wort' served by
the class. All the papers are worthy
of publication but space forbids. The
following class poem by a 13-year-
old boy is printed The author, one of
the giaduates, has never attended
any other school than Arleta, has
missed very few days and was never
tardy:
Eight long years I’ve gone to school,
In the same old place, over the same
old way.
I am sorry to say I’ve broken many
a rule.
But the years have been full of study
and play-
Have been brimming over with pleas
ure and pain
(The pleasure has mostly been ours,
I fear.
While the pain fell in showers on
teachers dear).
There aiv eighteen others, more or
less,
I’m not certain, I must confess.
But there will be plenty unless some
did flunk.
Then some heart went to his throat
kerplunk.
If so some teachers feels sorry and
sore.
And some poor kid will try it one
term more.
But Winnifred Johnson, who tops the
line.
Goes without question—her grades
are so fine.
Look who comes next; not Homer
who wrote the llliad.
But “our Homer”—the silly kid.
Right after Homer comes Eva S.
Did she pass? Of course, yes.
And after her. so round and fat.
Comes Kenny Ames with grades all
pat.
And on Sylvia Seymour, who never
saw less
Than E’s and G’s on her card. I’ll
risk a guess.
And about George Killetts, so long
and thin.
We are not worrying a bit, we know
he’ll win.
Virginia Russell, like Ichabod Crane,
Is not only tall but good of brain.
B. D. Davis, our boy so new,

fuse to worry about Is the recent dis
covery of scientists that light does not

FRANKLIN BASKETBALL
Franklin high school opened
its 1920 basketball campaign on
Tuesday afternoon with a vic
tory over the High School of
Commerce on the Washington
high floor. The game was ex
ceptionally free from fouls and
.ended 33 to 10 in favor of the
Franklin team. '“Chuck” Hob-
son was the scoring star for
Franklin, getting seven field bas
kets in all. three in the first half
and four in the second. -"Chap-
pie” King, the other Franklin
forward, played a great game,
’getting two field baskets and
converting two fouls. The small
forward covered the floor In
great
shape..
Bill
Poulsen,
Franklin forward, dropped three
field baskets through the hoop
ami converted one foul.
The
Franklin lineup was as follows:
Hobson, F.; King, F.; Poulsen,
C.; Kelley, G.; Jones. G.; Camp
bell, S.; Farley, S.
Proved in no time that he’s true blue.
Elsie Schmidt is a jolly good sport, a
comrade true.
And always has her lessons, toa.
His last name is Workantine, his first
is Russell,
la order to get thru he had to hustle.
But Frances Janes, so stately and
tall.
Got thru without any trouble at all.
Gladys Shipley, the slender miss,
Must not be left out of thia.
Dorothy Jessap. so merry and gay,
Will go without doubt the high
school way.
A society belle is Millicent Morrey,
If she don’t work more she will be
sorry.
Miss Barnes, whose name is Kathleen,
Will go to the top of the ladder, I
we’en.
Only three more and then I’m »hru;
Can’t think of a rhyme—what shall
I do?
There’s Helen and Alta—no rhyme
for each;
Helen’s last name describes them
both, it means peach (Crawford).
Oh, yes, there’s Harriet, they call
her pretty,
So her name completes my ditty.
Did 1 say thru? That would never do
Without mentioning Miss Fawcett, so
true.
"Learn means to acquire, teach
means to impart.”
•
With patience that will never tire,
she excells in the art.
We love her dearly and will miss her
sincerely,
So let us try as the years go by
To reach the goal she taught us in
school.
