PESSIMIST Deoi' Classmates At last, af ter toiling for four long years, we are about to become men and women of the world. (?) And don’t think for one minute that we’re shedding any tears. Now comes the climax of our school life------the time when we can put into words, the thoughts (JJoncerning our teachers) that have been running through our Binds ever since we entered Saxton Liberty as freshmen. In previous years it has been customary to take Mr. Howe, our supervising principal, and r.Jce him over the coals first. Thio year will prove to be no exception! If you ever break any laws or do anything that the teachers disapprove of, you must pay him a visit, because he must know the why’a -nd wherefore's of everything. Ix i pur opinion that he would have made an EXCELLENT district attorney. Next is r ?iik comes Mr. Sherpe. He’s iru puy tLnt keeps track of our wayward pupils. You «iso Lave to «.nsuer to Liu for ab- sences and make up a WHOLE HOUR if jou ore as much as J minute tardy! We Leer from the Physics students that his tests are terribly tough. I guess Miss Long is our next victim. First, we wish that, instead of preaching about the terrible way we chew our gum, for nine whole months, she would take just one English class period and teach us the proper way to chew it. We thought her high tops were quite the nertz this winter, when she wan.practi- cally marooned Way out thar in them that hills . Underclassmen, you are a hopeless case, if you don't know any English after receiving her instructions in that subject. It is our opinion that Miss McCahan could outtalk the windiest, fastest, most extemporanious speaker yet discovered, especially those trovel alks. We hope, that in time, the Press Club will wear down he» insistence to do oil the talking. Mr. Stinson’s opinion (of himself)hesn’t changed in the least since last year. He's just as tough as ever. It DOES nelp to keep those noisy study students a little more quiet, doesn't it? We always knew when he had attended a banquet because he never failed to have a new story or joke to tell p.t the next assembly. They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, but that can't be the way Mrs. Stinson got her man. We think her un- limited source of advice shouldn't he wasted, but put into a column known as Advice for the Lovelorn . We hear that when she loses her temper, a combination of Latin end French explode. That's sort's bad because after it's oil over, you can't prove a word she said about you wasn't true. Soy, did you know that she tried to coach the boys’ bssketbell team? Mr. Shoemaker is still slap-happy about the whole thing. Thak is, the whole thing except for a few mino» details, such as: (1) Bill Blenkley's clarinet playing. (2) The commotion that ori- ginates in the drum section every Thursday night tt reheorsel. (3) Wombaugh in general. (4) Some music classes, (5) Everyone's advice concerning his private sffairs. - 27 -
