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.

TRUE BLUE 15 TO SENIORS OF TWENTY-SEVEN One by one the years have passed, One by one the moments fall, Some are coming, but we are going, Leaving soon these dear old halls. One by one new duties wait us, into different lines we each will pass; Soon new occupations will serve to part us; We, who now are the Senior Class. One by one new friends we ll meet with, As farther from our school we’ll go; One by one new faces greet us, That in time we'll learn to know. One by one, through all the cares Of high school days we’ve passed together, First as freshmen now as seniors, Many a storm our friendship’s weathered. Every hour that’s passed so slowly, Now at last has reached its end, As through the years we’ve struggled soulv To reach the goal on which we stand. But. often in our hearts regretting The passing of these carefree days, Remembering ever, ne’er forgetting The happiness of high school days. And so our voices, one by one, We raise in loyal cheer to heaven, That in memory, you’ll hold dear This departing class of twentv-seven. G. M.
