Inscriptions

The Blue Bird Girls this Saturday night
Assemble to gather Join with delight
and pray that God's blessing may guide every part
and crown with success the aims of your heart
Although for a while our Club [work must sever?]
Our friendship remains and you can't change it ever
Our team through lost members received Mary + [Jar]
It was Madeline Tighe filled those spots with a star
Not only in Ball but when there was a race
It was Madeline Tighe gave the club a first place
Although in life you accept your own call
We'll never forget the ways you play ball
And offer this token that it may remind you
The loyal support you had always behind you
And when you return your sure of one thing
Your suit will be waiting for you in the spring
We repeat our clubs wishes and know no better way
Than to all join togather with a loud Hip Hip Hurrah
