12 TRUE BLUE CLASS HISTORY One bright summer clay an old Ford started on a long journey across the road that leads to the diploma. These occupants were young, frightened, but determined to win their purpose, hopeful and ambitious. They had embarked on a difficult voyage through the 1 ludson high school. The Ford needed pushing, cranking and steering. All the occupants did their share, but some pushed into prominence and others through their attaining prizes kept it moving. Our efficient class officers and advisors did the steering. Towards the Sophomore year the wheels sank into the sands of toil, and many began to realize that the road of school life was not al- ways a jiavement. Some left us unwilling to bare the jolts or lumps of our failures and discouragements. The rest put their shoulders to the wheel, and through their honest endeavor helped the Ford to gain the next stop, Juniorland. It was this journey that required perseverance, endurance and will lay toil and strife and then at last success. As the Ford entered Seniorland with new vigor the tired travellers continued on their wav, until at last the four year journey had ended— the city of Graduation was reached. The reward for earnest endeavors was the diploma. Ahead lay the journey of life for which the journey through school was preparing us. Certainly we can face the world more bravely and confidently after our four years sojourn in Hudson High school. A. P. E. P.

Margaret Nelson Celia Faraday, a woman of twenty-nine, finds that she is not mar- ried or has any prospects in view, her family makes her life unbearable for her, so she announces a ficticious engagement to a man named John Smith. After eight months, her family reads the announcement of his death (Celia has sent it to the paper.) However, instead of this ending, the situation becomes more interesting when a gentleman calls telling Celia that Colonel Smith was his best friend and that he has his last dying message to deliver. Celia is trapped but is able to bear up under the situation. This stranger, however, proves to be Colonel Smith him- self (although Celia had no idea that such a man existed.) The story ends happily, however, and Celia’s family has no cause for having to wear green stockings at Phyllis’s wedding.
