NEARING SENIORITY Could we but turn back the pages of time to a day in early September, 193 6, we would behold a familiar scene, yet, somehow, a different one. Up the steps come an un- usually active group of boys and girls eager to be recognized as Freshmen. Yes, we were reen and timid but We have overcome that. Nothin of reat im- g g g ortance occurred durin our Freshmen ear but we ave the u erclassmen to under- 3 Y 3 PP stand that we were an im ortant art of the school. P P In our Sophomore year we began to take on new responsibilities. We very success- fully presented a play Here Comes Charlie. Now that we are Juniors and our school life is nearly finished, we realize more fully the value of our high school career. We are striving to be good citizens. As our leaders we have chosen Ralph Leonard, president, Harold Bayless, vice-president, Richard Bame, secretary, Dale Huffman, treasurer. Our class play presented this year was A Ready-Made Family. XVe are looking forward to entertaining the Seniors at the Junior-Senior banquet. Page 22 v v

Robert Binger has secured a job as pilot of a trans-continental airplane. He says the best feature of his job is the large number of stewardesses he meets. Margaret Fenstermaker and Gertrude Peters are both married and live in the community. Luella Myers and Mary Shafer are not at Arcadia anymore but operate a millinery store in New York City. Of course, a large town has its slum problem. Glenna Peters and Evelyn Fruth are employed as full-time social workers. Evelyn has, as a cook to help feed the under- nourished children, a man said to have received his training in a hamburger shop in Fostoria. It was originally planned for Glenna to do the cooking but every one is fearful of her culinary art since in Chemistry Lab. she got her baking soda and washing soda mixed. James Kinsley took up art work and is now traveling in Europe as a famed artist. Please don't cell anybody, but his first famous painting was the result of two of his chil- dren fighting and upsetting the colors on his picture. Carolyn Fisher is a famed lecturer in the larger cities. She started this career after another girl stole her boy friend. After this occurred, she wrote an essay on Why Crime Doesn't Pay and it was so popular she kept on writing. She later branched off to lecturing. Martha McKee has retired on the money she made from her improvement on the shorthand system. She cut the time required, to take shorthand in half. It is reported she thought of this system when she saw some chickens walking around in the mud. The largest garage and machinery shop in this part of the state is owned and man- aged by Allan Thomas. Raymond Bowman is one of the outstanding farmers of the state. His main specialty is hogs. He became interested in this because of the ton-litter contest in vocational agriculture. John Gilliland is in Congress at Washiilgton, D. C. His main policy is soak the rich . He won the election because there are more poor people than rich people in his district. Esther Schubert decided on marriage instead of a career and is living a happy life on a farm southeast of Arcadia. Lloyd Taylor is classed as one of the leading men of his day. As you know, the country was in bad shape economically because of run-down soil and surplus crops. Lloyd was working to get wheat that yielded more, but, by an accident, propagated a variety of wheat that solved the economic problem of the United States. The variety he introduced is a legume, and has half as much grain as other varieties. Government decree made this the only wheat to be raised. This built up the soil and did away with the surplus of wheat. Please write soon and cell me about yourself and family. Are you still head book- keeper at the Canadian Oil Company? Your friend, Virden H. Smith. Page 21
