But was often the ''deestrict''
called,
And the worthy people who dwelt
therein,
Their own school and highway
ruled.
Each district had a committee,
To hire a "schoolma' fine,
Who should ring the bell and begin
her sway,
Just on the stroke of nine.
She was sometimes a thoughtless
person,
This schoolma'am you're reading
about,
She and pupils oft drank from the
selfsame cup,
Simply rinsing it carefully out;
She ate the first wild berries,
PIucked by chubby little hands,
Although moistened by perspiration
And garnished with grains Of sand.
She wore the earliest blossoms,
Which were gathered to deck her
Germs" were unintroduced in those
days,
Teachers must not do so now.
v.
All! our dear district school-ma'am,
Though she be short or tall,
With sunny hair or tresses of brown,
She strictly governed us all.
She taught the three RS" with un-
sparing hand,
To draw maps Of the world with
glee,
To teach history's dates or the laws
Of our land,
Who need do better than she?
VI.
At last winters social function
Held by the witty and wise,
Among his tOwnspeople's smartest
set,
An old classmate won first prize;
The prize was won for spelling
And the winner may well be proud,
Though he learned to spell in those
quaint school days,
When double o's'' were allowed.
must mention one pretty young
schoolma'am,
Now an honored statesman's wife,
Who took big boy by the collar and
gave him smart, sound
shaking,
Which proved good perhaps for
life,
For he since has preached the gospel,
Upon becoming a man;
With some pupils moral 'suasion
Was not always the better plan.
VIII.
When recalling names of dear
teachers,
Who are yet on the shores Of time,
/ find some of them talented lawyers
And all of them citizens fine;
May grim adversity's shadow
Never darken their onward way,
But prosperity bright, with it's
smile of light,
Be theirs from day to day.
TX.
Do we not read of teachers
Whose deeds are brave and grand,
Who brave threats of flame and bill
lows of smoke
In saving their little band?
And that when the merciless bliZ-
Yard
Comes with it's icy breath
How back to home and love and life,
Each child is led from death?
x.
''Uncle Sam delights to pension
His boys in blue SO brave,
Who have fought for home and coun-
try,
Or have freed the dusky slave;
If you sped not the fatal bullet,
Aimed at the lives of men,
You have faithfully taught
young ideas to shoot" and guild
ed the peaceful pen.
The ''pen which is mightier than
the sword
Though free from its crimson
stain.
district schoolma'am'
Though you wear no hero's
crown,
You've cheered and frightened full
many a home,
AS you patiently boarded
around"
You led wisely and well up learn
ing'g path,
Pausing a song to repeat,
Though never again may you be
with us,
For our "deestrict" frs obsolete.
But some lines of the lesson you
taught Us,
OF poetry, prose or prayer,
VIII tenderly linger unto the grave,
Who shall say all endeth there?
