Oh, what a surprise it was-so many that I cannot quite understand each, but I hope you may. Also, I could not print everything. New York City, N. Y. To All: I certainly feel at home when any one says New York Opera House, as this is my permanent home. I was Madame Butterfly the other night. I made a big hit with a Fifth Avenue guy. RUTH FUSSELL. , Memphis, Tenn. Read All: ' This mountain social work just fills my heart with joy. I love horse- back riding and seeing .the joy I put in each home as I arrive. This work is very delightful, but I am afraid it will last only six months. HELEN WAGNPIR. Hollywood, Calif. Well! Well! Did you all see me in that last movie, The Star Winner ? I just love stage life, for there is always something exciting. I tell the world there are some fine actors here. ELINOR WHITLOCK. Richmond, Va. Decor Ones: The Retreat is a swell old joint. It's the most interesting thing in my life. Especially since we have a young doctor here who likes sweet nurses. ELMA MILAM. I25l

After a very pleasant vacation had passed, we came back together to and ourselves still nearer our eoal. We were really Seniors! Who could believe it? Seniors! Yes, really Seniors! We quickly greeted three new Seniors who dropped into our class from the preceding class, and three of our old classmates did not return. After we had settled down and started back to work, Emmett Lipford and Stan- ley Fussell decided they liked home better than school. This year our class is interested in all school activities. We have eight members on the basketball teams, the president and secretary-treasurer of the Athletic Association, the president of the Junior League, the president ol the F.F.V.'s, the president and secretary of the Carrie A. Lyford Home Economics Club, the president, vice-president, secretary-treasurer of the Chemistry Club, the president of the French Club, the president of the Chorus Class are all from our class. All the debaters this year are from the Senior Classg they are: Helen Wagner and Wilmer Hedrick, afiirmatives: Thelma Day and Christine Sweeney, negatives. The best girl public speaker is from the Senior Class. She is Ruth Fussell.

We use the motto of The Three Musketeers, which is, All for one and one for all. We Seniors have always taken up for each other. Some may be professorsg some may be housewives, nurses, doctors, and lawyersg some may go into the business world, but whatever We take up, we sincerely hope that each of our class chooses the road to success and happiness. --LOUISE SADOWSKY, HlSt0!'tf!!l. l24l
