Junior Class Poem

The time is coming for us Juniors

To take on airs on lofty Seniors;

The days are coming to a close

And before anyone knows

Out on Life’s great path we’ll be, Ready to serve Humanity.

The days have been but few

Since our Freshmen days we knew

But delightful is the feeling

To dip in the Pierian Spring

Into realms of majestic learning

For which our hearts are ever yearning.

In the fall of twenty-four

When first we opened Neillsville’s door

Seventy-five on our roll appeared

Now but forty-four are reared,

All striving for nineteen twenty-eight

Though the path is narrow and straight.

Glen White is our class president

Chase, football star, a rural resident

Is always ready to crank

The Ford that’s owned by Zank.

Acheson always is a merry lass

And Arndt is ever able to pass;

Borde is getting passes his time away

Watching Chapman in her pranks

Chase Cooper with slivered planks.

Though Gall is a shark in English

Gluck is the girl to by stylish;

Gress ‘round girls is often found

Whereas Hannah is said to be bound

Revenge on Helwig now to get

While Hoesly’s on the job, you bet!

Krause is our Mathematician of late

While Kubat is never without a date

Kurth on the honor-roll is seen

But Martens-he’s lank and lean

Nelson is our orator great

His name is known o’er every state;

Parrett sweeps the walks as we pass

But Quinnell-she heads of the class.

Raine is tying has always stood

Next to Reimer-very good.

Schlinsog is a stately brunette,

Schoenherr’s as smart as Lafayette.

Louis Schmoll is our debator

Irma is trying to be greater.

Ruth Johnson is a student new

Who has plenty of work to do.

Seif is the lass that’s full o’ pep

Selves the girl who watches her step

Shaw is our basketball star

His name is known ever so far.

Sillick and Skroch History know.

While Short is never without a beau

Slagle with his squeaky voice

Takes Bernice Smith for his choice.

Kenneth is our cheer-leader loud

Who of his “N” is always proud.

Terman’s as coy as a little bunny.

Thoma to everyone is “Honey”.

Timmler who is bashful still

Wathces for Vande Berg on the hill.

Wagner is as light as a feather;

Walk and Wetzel are always found together.

Last, but not least on the way to fame

Comes Warlum, the Junior’s sweetest dame.

C.H.N. 1928

Chant of the Juniors

This life is most distressing,

It’s driving us insane,

Whenever we see History

We have an awful pain.

Latin grows steadily worse

We don’t know what to do;

We fear you’ll see us in a hearse;

Before the year is through

Shorthand is simply frightful

Typing is just the same;

If the way is all like this

We’ll never climb to fame.
