THE ORIENT me. Edith Sliter had eloped w.th Everett Walker. Otto Kennedy had gone through a series of divorces and finally having found his old-fashioned girl, she refused him and Ignatius Scarpitta was entertaining with Barnum Bailey’s Circus. Just then Lucille Littig and Anna Shead came along. They told us that they were respectively owner and editor of the new periodical, “Cheerio.” We discovered that Bruno Becker was the advertising manager of the famous weekly magazine “The Advertising World.” Mabel Mitchell was giving lectures in Maine. The topic of these lectures was the proper enunciation of words. Norman Conrad as Mr. Stick-to-Church had become famous by the number of reforms that favor the church. Matilda Del Negro and Highland Beaman were known as the hermit pair because of their isolation from the rest of the world. Dorothy Geortz, a famous dancing teacher, was giving lessons in Hawaii and Mildred Cohen was editor of the “Sarcastic Sarcasm,” the school paper of the high school in which she was teaching chemistry. At that moment 1 startled up. The alarm was ringing. 1 had been dream- ing, dreaming of the future. WE SENIORS The Senior stands with hat in hand, He pauses to look back, Before him lies the unknown land. Behind, the finished track. Out there the new life will begin, The old leaf will have turned. Out there he knows he’ll lose or win And add to what he’s learned. Out there new trials await him. And friends no doubt as true As those he found in East Side’s halls, Then why is he so blue? He knows that he may not return And live those years again. He knows that leaf will never turn Though countless years may wane. And as he goes outside the door He makes a solemn vow. That he will fight to very core To make his East Side proud. MARION DUNN, ’25. VIII f
