The Caerulean The Junior Trom A GREAT social and financial success. It was given in the Town Hall on Friday, February 13, 19x5. The Hall was artistically decorated. Lattice work of blue and gold hid the unsightly beams and ceiling of the Hall. Flowers, ferns, and streamers adorned the stage, walls and exits. The Prom commenced with a Grand March in which all those present could participate. Following the March was the dancing which continued until twelve o’clock. Our success was greatly due to the help and suggestions of Miss Katherine Burgoyne, our class adviser. Kay. ■ e The Turton Debating S ociety T he Burton Debating Society was organized by Mr. McGrath in March, 192.6. All the members of the High School are eligible. This society has been dedicated to the memory of our past-principal, Mr. Burton. Considerable good work along public speaking and debating lines has already been accomplished. We hope and feel confident that under the able supervision of its adviser, the club in the near future will become a valuable part of the school activities. g The Stentype Club T he Stentype Club was organized in 192.4 by Miss Curley, and by the Class of ’14. It is composed to the Senior Class, and the graduates of past years, who have taken the commercial course. The purpose of this organization is to further the education of its members. A second biennial Business Show was given by this club on June 4, 19x6. The officers for the years i92.5-i6 are as follows: President, Kathryn Collins, Vice-President, Virginia Collins; Secretary, Marion Mahony; Treasurer, Ruth Hutchins. Page sixteen

V ' Sharon High School Senior Tlay “NO TRESPASSING The Senior play was presented December 17 and 18, 1925 THE PLAYERS Peggy Palmer Mrs. Palmer Barbara Palmer Almeda Meader Lisle Irving Mr. Palmer Cleveland Tower Herbert Edmand Raynor Bill Meader Jim Meader Mr. Irving Jean Caldivell . Betty Peck . Venita Baker . Cathella Wright . Vivian heighten George W attendorf . Herbert Nutting Donald Stockman Henneth Broivn Kichard Rafter Carlton Holbrook Gee! I’m hungry. I wonder if any of the Palmer family is home. As a farmer’s wife Mrs. Palmer sure takes the cake. Just to think of her pies makes me feel empty way down to my boots. I wonder if Palmer has still got that funny looking suit that Pa swiped one day and then that Palmer made him shed when he caught him. Humph! That Bab Palmer sure thinks she is the whole show trying to scare me away with that spider. Yesterday I saw Peggy and Tower, but they didn’t see me as they were too busy with each other. I yelled at Peggy and asked her if Tower had shown her how to get up out of a chair like a lady yet, but she didn ’t hear me. I haven’t seen Lisle since she and Raynor were married. She certainly got sick of the country soon enough after she got Raynor. Well, I suppose Jim will have to pull Pa around again soon as he’s been collecting contributions from the neighbors to get the old wheelbarrow fixed. I wonder if Mr. Irving still sits in fly paper. He sure was a stupid guy. Even Pa would know better than to sit in fly paper. Almeda Meader. Page fifteen

Sharon High School Classmates Cathella We’ll begin at the end, And tell of our friend Our “Thella,” Cathella Wright, Who wishes some day. To become if she may, a politician, bright. As Almeda Meader she took the cake’’ — And also much other food,— But as to being Cathella herself. She’s jolly, and nice and good. Venita Then comes our Venita, she’s number one On our alphabetical list — And that’s the way she would stand in the row If it came to being missed. She’s happy and busy and vehement, too, When she needs to assert her way. And the wink of her eye is so quick, cute and sly “Deta’’ could not be spared for a day. Jean Dark-eyed Jean plays with our hearts Just about as she pleases. She can give you a glance That’s melting sweet or one that almost freezes. I’d sometimes like to be her book. If she at me would so steadily look. But Jean’s quite a student and a sport Of a very, very pleasant sort. K.enneth C. Kenneth is gracious every day I can’t tell you why, but it’s just his way. He has a wonderful gift of speech; ’Tis said the Supreme Court some day he’ll reach. And the Judge thereof will be the man. We know now as Kenneth Callahan. George George Wattendorf is a kindly soul. And a brilliant student, too. But when it comes to a social dance. He shirks a partner, it is true. George has handsome hair and eyes. And might be a beau all right. But instead of that he aims to become a literary light. Page seventeen
