I CURWENSVILLE PUBLIC SCHOOLS PAGE 25 Saying farewell to Chicago I went to Billings, Montana, where I had relatives. My uncle took me out to see some of the ranches. Stopping at one ranch for a drmk he insisted that I meet the owner as he knew him. We entered the .house and I was confronted by Reuben Moose. He said he liked the west very much and added that other members of our class were enJoy1ng the west. , M Pearl Mumma was teaching school not far from there and Olive Eckert was matron of a chi1dren's home at Billingsu Some days later I started for Colorado Springs. There I met Helen Benson, recuperating from a. broken heart. She asked me if I should like to see some one else Lknew. She took me to a large kindergarden School where Marjorie Murray was at the head. Hours later I arrived at Los Angeles. Some days later I went into a if shop to buy a few souvenirs. A tall stately looking Woman came to wait on me, but stood staring at me. She said she was Lois Vaughn but so changed was she that I did not know her. She was happily married and lived in the city. She said that Wava Newcomer had been in there not long ago and that she was a traveling saleslady. W-hile walking through a park one Sunday whom did I meet but Lucy Brunetti and Elda Yacabucci. They were both living at Los Angeles, Lucy was a secretary and Elda a stenographer. Going to an opera one night I heard the great opera singer Lillian Taylor. And what dog you think?

CURWENSVILLE PUBLIC SCHOOLS PAGE 27 JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY It was the Hrst day of school in the yearof our Lord, 1919, that it happened. hike all other great days in the history of Nations, peoples and even High Schools, it passed away with scarcely any comment except that which was so loftily offered by the unsophisticated Sophomore. But what happened? You will ask. Why is it so important? You will wonder. 'The answer is simple. On that never to be forgotten day, the Freshmen Class of 1919 entered the halls of learning, maintained by the worthy citizens of Curwensville, and presided over by Professor- R. A. Shields. It was a large class, numbering some thirty pupils. On that well re- membered' day, we were ushered into High play,,its pains, and its pleasures. School 1ife,lwith its work, its Here I will attempt to recall to my memory, the names of the class- mates who entered as Freshmen, but who dropped out before our Junior year was reached. Burton Knepp, Hugh Leach, ,yJames Strickland, Dale Kephart, Cecil Hummel, Rosa Gia, Jessie Pifer, Leon Test, Fredrick McLaughlin, Clayton Dale, Earl Bloom Carl Downs, Beatrice Solly, Emery Fasoli, Robert Hadden, Clara Errigo, Clifford Kelly. A year has passed and we have begun life as Sophomores. The class is not as large 'asf it was' a year ago, for some have dropped by the road- side as we passed from the land of Freshmen to that of Sophomores. We have attempted to do our work faithfully and perhaps have succeeded. We have many times grown discouraged, but kept on, thus acqwiring that great necessity in life,-perserverance. Our trials are, shall I say pleasant? yes, when overcome they are pleasures indeed. Another year has told its tale, and now we are Juniors looking forward to graduation. The class decreased during the last year, but not much. Today we try to do our work so as to be a credit to the Curwensville High School. Already we are anticipating that memorable day, which shall be- one of the lanrdnnamks in our lives. That day when we sit upon the platform and receive our diplomas, prep- aratory to going forth into, a new life, no longer- as boys and girls but as men and women bent upon serving humanity and its cause.
