Editor-in-Chief, Mirfuvt A. Perkins
We've got a newcomer in our
neighborhood,
He seems so quiet, old fashioned,
and good;
He has brought weak Latin scholars
in the light,
And I mean he too engaged in this
fight.
We should indealize this professor
in his chair.
Oh, don't let us forget that wavy
hair;
He owns strict duty as his first
control,
With the discipline too wonderful
to be told.
He wisely hides his heart from you
and me.
He has known quietness to be a
necessity,
Salute this man, oh. praise him!
He's a grand young man, dear old
Mr. !
Through every happy line I sing,
I feel the tonic of the spring,
The day is like an old-time face,
(That gleams across this high school
place. _
An pld-time face?an old-time chum
Who rises from Georgia to come
And lure us over to the land of
France.
Where she has trained R. H. S. stu
dents
That they might have a chance.
I see across the school room planks
This dark-haired lady in view.
Her personality is of highest rank;
Her interesting facts she freely
gives me and you.
