There is one who has made our school life more
happy through his understanding and fair consideration
of the pupils' viewpoint, his honesty and sincerity in
dealing with us, and his good fellowship at all times.
Be-
cause of the spirit of progress, which dominates him to
the degree that self is forgotten, he has striven to give us
the advantages of modern methods in an educationalsystem;
by so doing he has placed our school in a foremost position
among others of its size.
This one is MARLIN M. ScHNURR, who has served
the Union Free High School for several years, first as
teacher and later as our principal. To him we appreciatively
dedicate this EcHo of 1935.
In accordance with the precedent of issuing a book
every fourth year, reflecting life in the Union Free High
School, we are again publishing the EcHo.
To review the events of the year 193+35 and to
serve as an echo of the past when this year has become
but a memory -
this is the earnest desire and motive of
the staff in compiling this book so that coming years may
be enriched by fond memories as we leaf through the pages
of the EcHo of 1935.

THE ECHO
Senior Class History
It would be impossible to tell about all of the pleasant events of the class of
nineteen hundred and thirty-five, so I will give a brief sketch of the more important ones.
On September eighth, nineteen hundred and thirty-one, thirty-three timid little
"freshies" entered Union Free High School. Of course, ·the sophomores did all they
could to pester them, but they all lived through it and since proved that they were
capable of doing good work.
Several of them made the honor roll. Several of the boys went out for baseball
and basketball. Most of the girls joined the Girls' Athletic Association and the Girls'
Dramatic Club. A few members of the class took forensic work.
When the class returned in nineteen hundred and thirty-two, we found that our
number was reduced to thirty people. We had several new members, but many of the
old number had dropped out. Several members of this class took up forensic work. A
few of the boys made the first team in athletics. Several of the students again succeeded
in getting on the honor roll.
The Junior roll call of nineteen hundred and thirty-three found twenty-nine
members. This year proved very eventful to the class. Quite a sum of money was
earned by the sale of candy, popcorn, etc. at the basketball games. The class rings were
selected and proved quite satisfactory to the majority of the class.
The class sponsored two one~act plays-"Nancy Orr's Day" and "Thanks
Awfully." Every Junior took some part in the event-either a part in the play or a
part in a special number. The plays were very successful and netted the class a considerable amount of money.
The Junior class ended their year with a very successful prom. The gymnasium
was decorated to represent a Dutch scene. Boxes filled with gayly colored tulips were
placed in every corner. The punch well was built to represent a Dutch mill. The
punch girls were dressed as girls from Holland. The ceiling was interwoven with light
and dark blue crepe paper. The balcony was decorated in like style for the spectators.
The Juniors decorated the stage for the senior commencement.
ated to represent the motto: "Climb tliough the rocks be rugged."
It was decor-
When they came back in nineteen hundred and thirty-four for their last year,
there were twenty-seven members in the class.
/
One of the. important events of this year was the Carnival sponsored by the
Boys' Athletic Association. The senior class presented the "Magic Pill" at this Carnival.
It was a humorous litt:le skit and brought in quite a profit for the Boys' Athletic:' Asso-;
. .

-~
All in all the. class of nineteen 'hundred and thirty-five was very suc~es~fuL
great deal of this success was due to Miss Thomas who is our class adviser.
A
As the year draws to a close, the seniors regret that they must leave UnionFree
High School with all its teachers and schoolmates who have helped them enjoy their four
years of high school life.
'
Every senior feels that these four years were spent as a great benefit" to themselves and hope that Union Free High School will always rememher them. . ·

ROBERS, DONALD, President
VINCENT, EVA, Secretary- Treasurer
Don had always been a 'leader of
the class from the start, and a real
leader he has turned out to be. Don
has also shown his ability i'n all kinds of
sports and his schoolwork. It is also
well known that he spends his spare
moments in Twin Lakes.
We are very proud of our Secretary
and Treasurer because of the fact that
she is also the high school Treasurer.
Because she has had much experience in
this kind of work, she handles our
money with extreme care. Most of her
spare time is spent with a certain Junior
boy.
NELSON, JOHN, Vice President
John has been the talented member
of our class as far as sports are concerned. As we. know he has shown his
ability in sports, we also know that he
could show his ability as leader of the
class. His greatest problem~the opposite sex-has not as yet been solved.
MISS ALICE KUENZLI; Class Adviser
We are decidedly grateful to Miss
Kuenzli for making our. class one of the ·
leading ones in schqol, also for the great
success of our Minstrel and Prom. She
has always showed her willingness to
help us in any project we have undertaken.

THE ECHO
Junior Class History
It was a great day in September for some 3 0 Freshman girls and boys that were
about to enter the Wilmot Union Free High School. Their first few days, when they
were very timid and bashful, were spent in getting accustomed to the different rooms,
teachers, and classmates, which they seemed to enjoy vety much. But after a bad initiation this small group settled down to do some hard work.
Some of the boys in the class immediately participated in basketball and football.
Among these were John Nelson, Donald Robers, Norman Lischka, Howard Lovestead,
and Arthur Schultz. The girls also found recreation in the Girls' Chorus and the
Girls' Athletic Association.
We elected for President Lawrence Hansen; for Secretary and Treasurer, Dorothy Buckley; for members of the Student Council, Olene Smalfeldt and Norman Lischka.
In our first year we had a little longer and a little more tragic Christmas vacation than we had expected. Our old school building had burned to the ,ground. Only
after a week or two the gym was remodeled and used for a school-house-which served
the purpose very well. Thus in this queer looking school building we ended our first
year of high school.
Coming back to school again the following fall, we were delighted to find th;lt
a new school building was nearing completion. This time we were not disappointed
to go back to the gym for a few months, and immediately settled down to work.
This year we elected Josephine Larwin as President; Harley Shotliff, Secretary
and Treasurer; and Olene Smalfeldt and Howard Lovestead as representatives for the
Student Council.
Our Sophomore class was badly in need of money, so in order to raise the much
needed money we decided on giving a class minstrel. With the help of our class adviser and with the cooperation of the entire class, we were able to have our first. big
project a success.
Our third year in high school was to be a big one for most of us. We were
looking forward to putting on a class play, the Junior Prom, and helping the publishing of the Echo.
The :first project and success was the Junior Play. With the excellent help of
Miss Thomas and the cooperation of the best actors we were able to make enough money
to pull our class out of the red. This was only a prediction of the Prom, for this was
also a huge success, One more thing was very important in our Junior year-the purchasing of class rings, and we were very glad that most everybody in,the class could
purchase one. With this event we ended our largest year in high sch$~1.
'"1
With success crowning our efforts in every way we know that we shall also succeed in our fourth year of high school.

DEAN, ROBERT, President
As the president of an extra peppy
class, Bob has been successful. He not
only is president of our class, but plays
an important part in all our activities.
Being , a great sportsman he made the
second basketball team and plays almost
any game with great capability.
MARK, MARIE, Secretary - Treasurer
To keep record of all our business
transactions is the job of our efficient
secretary. Although her arithmetic need
not be very good in handling large sums
of money, she is v·ery accurate with the
little we have in our treasury. As for
her music, she plays the saxophone.
RICHTER, ROBERT, Vice President
\Y/hen our president, Bob Dean, IS
absent it is up to Bob Richter to carry on
the business. Although he had the
chance but once or twice, we found him
to be very capable of the duties of the
position he holds. In all our class activities in which there is a pianist needed,
Bob is .always called upon.
MR. WILLIAM LIESKE, Adviser
We have all enjoyed having Mr. Lieske
as our class adviser. At our meetings
and in all our activities he cooperates
with a lot of fun and enthusiasm. We
owe the success of many of these things
to him. We all hope we can have his
assistance as our adviser during the rest
of our school li£e here.

THE ECHO
Sophomore Class History
We entered as green freshmen, and took our front seats with everyone staring
at us and snickering, in September 1933, with a total number of thirty-one. We still
don't know if we were such a funny looking bunch or what it was that made everyone
look at us so much. In a few weeks two more pupils enrolled. This made a total of
thirty- three.
At our first class meeting we elected our class officers as follows: President,
Robert Blood; Vice President, Mildred Zmrzly; Secretary, Mary Runyard; Representatives on the Student Council, Jeanette and Melvin Wertz, with Mr. Lieske as our class
adviser.
Two of our boys made the second basketball team, some joined the Agriculture
Club, several girls joined the Dramatic Club, and some the Athletic Association.
Quite a number joined the boys' and girls' chorus and the band and orchestra.
We were initiated in October by the people, now Juniors, in a most terrifying
manner. During the day we had to write a theme, "What I Think of Initiation." We
had to pick up rubbish on the lawn, carry books, and do almost anything the sophomores
asked us to for fear of a worse punishment that night. In the evening we all thought
we were going to our own funeral, but two in our midst found it to be their wedding.
We were forced to walk on bottle caps, ride in a wheelbarrow over a ladder blindfolded,
and many other interesting things.
Three persons, Mildred Zmrzly, Robert Lois, and Charles Groff dropped out
during the course of the year.
We entered as sophomores this fall a little more dignified and a lot more confident than the year before with a total number of twenty-seven. Now it was our turn
to laugh at the green freshies, and watch every move they made.
Our class officers were elected as follows: President, Robert Dean; Vice President,
Robert Richter; Secretary, Marie Mark; and Representatives on the Student Council,
Lillian Robers and Robert Scott.
The honor of initiating the freshmen was ours! How it rang in our ears, and
how we took advantage of it. In the daytime they had to go up and down stairs backwards, not speak unless spoken to, the boys had to curl their hair, wear girls' shoes while
the girls had to wear boys' stockings, wear their dresses backwards and wear a tie. At
night they got a few electric shocks, had to walk a plank and other things, after which
everybody had a very enjoyable time dancing.
Our first great undertaking was the "Sophomore Jamboree" or minstrel, which
was very successfully staged in the latter part of March. It included jokes, harmonica
solos, Jew's harp duet, and vocal selections. Some of the characters were Lassis, Honey
Tango, Bones, Ivers, Rastus, Hayes, Coots, Gold-Dust Twins, and Liza and Jane.
We are now looking forward to two more years of school here, and to the years
that follow with great hope of success in everything we undertake.

THE ECHO
Freshman Class History
On September 4, 1934, twenty-five shy, green "freshies" crept into the assembly.
Each of us almost feared to move, afraid that all the upper classmen would mock us
should we make a mistake. On the following day we knew each other a little better
and became well acquainted with the daily routine of class work. After a few more
days, we were. still better acquainted and felt more free.
In a short time we heard of the various organizations, and we decided to JOin
some of them. Several members of our class joined the Boys' Athletic Association, the
Girls' Athletic Association, the Girls' Dramatic Club and the Future Farmers of America. "Only a few joined the Commercial Club. Joe Rausch and Harvey Beaster made
the second team in basketball, while Lawrence Freeman and Joe Rausch made the football team. At some of the conference basketball games the girls staged an attraction
game. Of our class the following played: Irene White, forward; Doris Berry, forward;
Edna Lake, guard; June Pacey, running center; and Ardyce Lischka, substitute guard.
On October 12 came the big day of initiation. The girls were required to wear
boys' shoes and garters, which was perfect nonsense to them. The boys had to wear
make-up and only one shoe. All of us had to walk upstairs backwards and bow to our
teachers when we met them. We all survived that day, but we hated to see night come
because of its terrors. The high lights of the entertainment that evening were Robert
Mooney and Betty Galliart feeding each other molasses and the class officers . singing a
song. All of us had to climb a stairs and tumble off. Then they made us walk over
pop bottle caps and gravel stones stocking footed. After all this torture we had a
dance, and when we left the gym we couldn't have been merrier.
During the year our class had to raise money, so it sponsored a series of candy
sales at the basketball games.
In April our class gave its return party to the sophomores.
enjoyed it and had a good time.
We hope everyone
When the basketball season came, a cheer leader and assistants were wanted.
The latter were. chosen from our class. They were Doris Berry and Ardyce Lischka.'
During tl~e year our class was unfortunate in losing three of its members. ,
Martha Ellsworth dropped out about a week after school started. Helen Wagner was
transferred to Chicago after being here about a month: She was transferred to here
from Ableman. Public Scho()l. Louise Neumann was transferred to Kenosha after the
second semester started. We now have a total of twenty-three with which to start our

THE ECHO
School History
It seems only fitting and proper that a brief history of our high school be preserved in our Echo, so that when years have passed and memories have grown dim we
may be able tolook back and read again the history of Union Free High School, Wilmot.
The gr,ound on which the school is located was donated to the village by Mr.
Benham for a park and schoolground. Since the village at that time needed a school, in
eighteen thirty-five, through the efforts of the people, one was built, consisting of one
upstairs room and two rooms downstairs.
In the year 1879 the school was enlarged to accommodate the increased number
of pupils.
In 1904 the school became a common district high school. The first high
school class to finish its work was the class of 1905, which consisted of ten members.
The school remained under the direction of two teachers until 1912. To meet
the needs of the people parts of the townships of Salem, Randall, and Wheatland were
concluded into a Union Free High School District.
In 1918 another wing comprising two rooms was added to the building. The
same time this construction was taking place a modern hot air heating system was
installed.
In 1922 a petition for a gymnasium was circulated by Mr. R. S. Ihlenfeldt and
Miss Ermine Carey. With the aid of a great many others in the community a gymnasium was erected. In 1924 a heating system which complied with the state requirements was installed.
Further improvement on the building was made in 1929 when a class room and
boys' and girls' rest rooms were added.
On the memorable New Year's morning of the year 1933 the high school building was completely destroyed by fire. Throughout the surrounding vicinity the loss
was deeply felt. High School classes were conducted in the gymnasium, which was
converted into temporary classrooms to accommodate the pupils.
Various plans were advanced relative to construction of the new building. Special meetings of both the High School District and Joint District No. 9 were held, and
it was finally decided to place the new building on the same grounds. Construction
was started in May, 1933. During that summer we watched with interest the progress
of the building. It was completed in early fall and classes made their entry on the 3Oth
of October, 1933. Landscaping of the grounds and laying out of playgrounds and athletic field are at present under way.
Dedication of the building was held on November 30th, with John Calahan,
State Superintendent of Schools, as the speaker. Members of the district had every
reason to be extremely proud of the new high school building.
Progress is a reflection of unselfish interests and sacrifice of the members of the
community. We hope this brief history of the struggle to make adequate educational
facilities for the children of the community will be an inspiration and guiding star in
the future.

Girls Dramatic Club
The Dramatic Club, since its organization in 1929, has continued its activities
under the advisership of Miss Thomas.
This club was organized to further social life in school and to afford an opportunity of self-expression through dramatics.
During the past four years, of which this resume treats, the following have held
the office of president--in 1931, Helen Loftus; 1932, Amy Harm; 1933 and 1934, Edna
Neumann.
Among the activities of the Dramatic Club it has sponsored the Forensic work,
in which pupils have been trained in orations, declamations, extemporaneous speaking
and reading, and are then sent to compete with other schools. It has also directed the
Christmas parties-decorating the tree, and putting on a program.
Each month a meeting is held, where a dramatic program is given, after which
light refreshments and dancing are enjoyed.

THE ECHO
Boys• Chorus
One of the problems of the music department of the Union Free High School
was to organize a Boys' Chorus. In 1932 Miss Bufton stimulated sufficient interest
among the boys to begin a class in vocal instruction.
That spring the boys assisted in the production of the operetta "Bon Voyage."
Those that participated believed that their efforts were well spent. The following year,
the old members and new members joined the class with much more enthusiasm. The
new class was greatly improved because of the added interest taken. They were combined with the Girls' Chorus to sing several numbers at the Patrons' Club. Later a
sextette was picked to sing at other public entertainments. Again that year the charas
took part in the operetta "Ask the Professor." This also was a success.
This third year of the existence of the Boys' Chorus has brought forth many
more activities. They are now working on the operetta "And It Rained."
The success of the chorus is due largely to the efforts of Miss Bufton, who has
directed it.

to judge-mainly livestock, meat, butter, and cheese. Some members from our school
have won prizes which are presented to the persons with the highest judging scores.
This trip gives a great amount of experience to the boys. The team always finds time
to have a great deal of fun as well as work. Each year a Big Ten Football game is attended. This proves to be a big thrill to the boys making the trip.
Persons who make this trip stop at the Park Hotel. They stay here for about

At the present time there are twenty-seven pieces in the orchestra-four cornets,
five saxophones, two drums, two trombones, two bass horns, six clarinets, one flute, one
piano, and four violins. Each player has had one or more years of experience.
Within the past four years the orchestra has played at school entertainmentssuch as class plays, operettas, minstrels, and commencements. A concert which was

Band
Under the able leadership of Miss Bufton a band was organized in 1932. The
mus1c students who had played in the orchestra under the direction of Mr. Aldrich
offered good material with which to start the band.
In the past four years the band has increased in number from nineteen to thirtyfive instruments. As the band progressed, it was called upon to play at many school
functions, and many good concerts were given.
Several members of the band were selected to present musical numbers at many
neighboring school entertainments.
The band assisted greatly in advertising the school carnival which was held in
November. A trip was made through all towns in the vicinity. Many peppy numbers
were played, which created a very enthusiastic response from the residents.
This organization offers opportunity to any student in school wishing to play
any musical instrument, gives the advantage of group playing, and offers a one-fourth
credit course.

For the past few seasons our football team has been down and has been playing
below the five hundred percentage. This year it picked up to an even five hundred
percent, with Mr. Lieske having a good working bunch of players on the team. They
started out against Walworth, a team that was of higher class than we were, which was
proved by their defeating us by a score of 3 2-0.
The team consisted of: Nelson, right end; Bailey, right tackle,; Collignon, right
guard; Bieneman, center; Yanke, left guard; Schultz, left tackle; Maves, right end;
Mecklenburg, quarter back; Kowalik, right half; Axtell, left half; Fox, full back.
The second game was against the alumni and the team took them 13-11, our
first win of the year.
The third game was played against Mukwonago, and after a nicely fought game
we were on the short end of a 19-6 score.
The fourth game was our first conference win. We played Rochester and were
victorious, 6-0.
Our fifth game was against the Waterford team; here was a game which all of
the boys wanted to take. The team played hard and missed on a break which would
have counted for a touchdown. We finally ended up against the rivals 7-0.
The next game against East Troy was another win for us by a score of 6-0.
Williams Bay was another prey for us as we scampered over them to a score of
19-0. The boys were just getting their start and 'wery hard to stop.

THE ECHO
Baseball·
"Always on top" has been our motto at Wilmot. For the past three years we
have won the southeastern conference in b;1seball. It seems as though our team has a
charm for winning conference games .. All the games which we have lost have been
non-conference games, and last year both of our defeats were handed to us by Mukwonago. Our team has suffered the loss of several good players, such as: Leonard
Ward, Arthur Hartman, and Dick De BeU the first year; Alfred Oetting and Lyle
Neumann the se:::ond year; and last year we lost Floyd Zarnstorff, who was a mainstay
on our team for pitching and hitting. 'All these men have been· replaced by others
who have shown that they also have ability to play the game and have shown it in the
past four years.
The first year we started our winning streak, the only team we were beaten by
was Waterford by a score of 5 to 3. This was played at Waterford; of course, it was
a thorn in our flesh, because the one team we wanted to beat was Waterford.
The second year we were at the top again without any defeats; Waterford again
gave a tight game, but we beat them by a score of 5· to 3. Hartman and Zarnstorff
shared the pitching duties.
Last year, 1934, our baseball team was as good as ever. They won another
championship an.d suffered only two defeats all year, both of them by Mukwonago.
Our players had an idea that the Mukwonago pitcher was too good, and we were unable
to hit his pitching. We played the final play off at Burlington against Palmyra, the
northeastern champions. We were the winners at the long end by a score of 14 to 3.
The game was easily ours right from the first inning. This ended our baseball year.
For the third consecutive year we had won; here's hoping we win for many more
seasons to come.

Basketball
The basketball season was quite successful, due to the fact that we had four of
last year's players on the team. Those who came back were: Maves, center; Runyard
(co-captain), forward; Nelson, forward; Mecklenburg (co-captain), guard; Robers,
another guard, was on the second team last year.
This team had several potential scoring threats but did not always click. Runyard led the team throughout the year.
Maves improved as he went along. At the beginning of the year he had more
trouble handling himself than the opposition. Toward the end of the year he began
sinking rebounds and was playing the pivot position well.
Runyard played a consistent game through most of the year. He had an
accurate eye for the basket and could bear in and get one when it was needed.
Nelson's play was inconsistent. At times he could handle himself well and
then at times his play was ragged. His weakness during the 'first part of the year was
on the free throw line. During the last part of the season he improved in this
department.
Mecklenburg was a fine defensive guard and could sink long shots. He was
good on the free throw line also.
Robers was an excellent defensive guard and could drop free throws with con·sistent accuracy.

Fern Berry; Vice President, Dorathy Pepper; Secretary and Treasurer, Eva Vincent.
Meetings are held each month in the form of some athletic competition. The
different forms of exercise may be ping-pong, basketball, or roller skating. Girls
usually obtain roller skates and skate in the school basement. Teams for basketball
are organized, and a great deal of rivalry is shown.
During the first semester of school a ping-pong series was sponsored by the
organization for students. Pupils had their choice of playing singles or doubles,
which were played off during the noon hour.
Members of this organization held a roller skating party at Fox River Gudens. Some of the girls who had never been on skat~s were very frightened at first,
but gradually they became accustomed to the heavy weights at their feet, and no
serious accidents resulted.
For the school Carnival that was held November 16, the Girls' Athletic Association put on a style show. Many old-fashioned dresses and capes were modeled.
Modern hats, coats, and dresses were displayed also.
The main object of this organization is to keep the girls interested in outdoor
and indoor recreatwn, which promotes better sportsmanship. For different forms of
recreation, if a certain number of points are obtained, the girls are presented letters.

Alumni Greetings
The Alumni Association was inactive for many years until 1929 when, through
the cooperation of faculty and alumni, a banquet was held, and since that time, it has

Alumni Greetings
The Alumni Editors wish to thank all members of the Alumni for their cooperation and the interest they hav.e shown in making this section as complete as possible.
These pages of autographs show you a small portion of the assistance given us. It was
impossible to reach every alumnus since, because of varied interests and vocations, they
have drifted to other parts of the country. The High School Directory is glad, at any,
time, to receive news and the whereabouts of members of alumni.

When in the course of human events it becomes necessary to laugh-laugh.
This section is devoted to those things which we hope will tickle your funny bone to
some degree. What seems funny to us may not seem funny to you, and we agree that
what might be the funniest thing about this section would be a picture of the humor
editors trying to tell a story.
You are either happy or else you are sad, or some other way. H you are sad
people don't like you, and if you are happy some people don't like you; but regardless
of how you are the best exercise of the world is laughing-so put your feet upon the
kitchen table, chase the cat out the back door, open to these pages, and get your exercise. In addition, if what follows isn't funny to you call on the humor editors and
we'll give you a chance to write the humor section for the next annual, of course we'll
laugh at your attempts; so good bye, good luck, and "come up and see us some time."

Or it may be the weather,
Or it may be the building
Or all of them together;
Or it may be the system,
Or it may be the season,
Or it may be the lighting
That constitutes the reason,
Or it may be the textbooks

Or it may be the grading ·

Miss K.: What do you mean by saying that
Benedict Arnold was a janitor?
Joe S.: The book says that after his exile he
spent the rest of his life in abasement.
F. L.: Say, I went to college, stupid.
V. R.: Yes, and you came back stupid.
E. V.:
D. R.:
Is that a dray horse you have there?
No, its a brown horse, and stop your
baby talk.
-Clarence Edwin Flynn.
A class in English was given the task of writing
four lines of dramatic poetry. The results were
various, and selecting the verse of a usually bright
boy (Floyd Lubeno) the teacher read" A boy was walking down the track,
The train was coming fast,
The boy stepped off the railroad track,
To let the train go past."
"This verse is very well done," said Miss
Thomas, "but it lacks drama. Try again, Floyd,
and make it more dramatic." Whereupon, in a
surprisingly short time, Floyd produced the following verse:
"A boy was walking down the track,
The train was coming fast,
The train jumped off the railroad track
To let the boy go past."
A nickel's not supposed to be as good as a dollar, but it sure goes to church more often.
Miss K.: \\?hat is a strait?
Lovestead: A neck o£ dirt stretching out to
sea.
Scotchmen live such good lives so they won't
have to pay for their sins.
She is so lazy that she puts pop corn in her pancakes so they will turn over by themselves.
Bill Scott said that the show was so bad that
he had to stay three times to get his money's
worth.
Do you think your boys will make a success of
your farm?
Well, it's hard to till.
John Schippers: Which way do you play
bridge? Auction or contract?
Kenneth Maves: Neither! I play London
Bridge.
City Slicker: Why are you running that
roller over the potato field?
Farmer: I'm going to raise mashed potatoes
this year.
Jerry: Bob S. has something worthwhile in his
face.
Richter: You mean character?
Jerry: No, I mean the gold in his teeth.

THE ECHO
A Little Boy
The only way I have to know
Is cause my teacher told me so.
She says that some day I'll be a man
With a wife and lots of land,
And maybe if I study hard,
And behave myself in school,
Some day I might be president
With the United States to rule.
But just the same I surdy hate
When April comes around,
When the fish are coming down,
And the palm of my hand begins to itch
For the feel of the old baseball,
And a sneak to the creek
For a dip in the deep
Of our old swimming hole.
And pretty soon the flowers peep
And there are beautiful birds galore,
And once in a while a green apple or, two
Which makes my stomach sore.
And then in days when there is rain
And the mud is all around,
I take a short cut through the lane
And of course I would fall down!
And then I go home all muddy like
And try sneaking in the door,
Pa by accident is coming outNow, more than my feet are sore.
But just the same it's lots of fun
To be a little boy.
I love my teacher, yes I do
And believe whatever she says,
Buti am going to stay a little boy
And let some dumb bell be the pres.
