Page 20 THE CHIPMUNK for 1922 Fletcher Walker. our former president, is living high up in the Sierras. His only communication with the outside world is through his radio. In one of the letters which Miss Ball shows me, there is a clipping from a New York paper. It states that the famous Spanish dancer. Lillie Maud Birdsong, has arrived in New York and is delighting the entire populace with her performances. Just as I am leaving I meet Louis Dixon. “Why! Lee Norah Roberts, where did you come from?” “Mrs. please,” I promptly correct him. “How do you like Westwood by now, Louis?” “Success has come to me at last, but I am still an old bachelor. I have just completed a famous book called, “Love Will Find a Way.” and the editor of the Sugar Pine has offered me a big price for it.” Indeed, that is wonderful. Do you believe in the title of your story. Louis?” Finding that we arc blockading the traffic I bid him good-bye regretting that I must leave so soon. After a few days' visit with friends I return to my position as private secretary to my husband who is a proprietor of a large shirt factory in Georgia. L. N. R.. '22.

THE CHIPMUNK for 1922 Page 9 Class Will We, the solemn and prudent Seniors, hating to leave our Beloved High School without some fond remembrance of the flower of its Student Body and realizing how hard it will he next year for the school to continue in its usual fashion without our inspiring and enlightening presences, and realizing how- many wonderful accomplishments and tokens we have to bestow-, do hereby, believing ourselves to be in a magnanimous and bountiful mood, bequeath, bestow and endow- certain members of the Junior Class as follow-s: I. Lewis Erbes. being of unsound mind and light head, do hereby w-ill and bequeath my bow legs to Kenneth Walker; my hearty laugh to Agnes Johnson; and my curling iron to Monk Morrison. I. Peggy Jacobsen, believing myself to be a fit patient for the insane asylum, do hereby will and bequeath my long black tresses to Mona Sevems; my $1,000.00 pitching arm to Kuth Gadehon; and my queening ability to Vera Jones. I. Lewis Dixon, having maintained my mental equilibrium during the past four years do hereby will and bequeath my ability to annex credits to Mona Sevems; my superfluous avoirdupois to Carl Allen; and my ability to play baseball to Doggie Dixon. I, Lee Norah Roberts, believing myself to be old and feeble-minded do hereby bequeath my ability to write examinations to Capitola Quigley; my ability to take rapid dictation to Agnes Israelson; and my position on the Executive Committee to Vera Jones. I. Fletcher Walker, believing myself to be mentally, physically and morally the cream of the 1922 class, and believing myself to be efficiently deficient and effectively defective, wish to bequeath and bestow my superb ability to control and coerce my fellow- students to Agnes Johnson; my maidenly grace and beauty to Mildred Garrett; my fairy feet to Carl Allen: and my singing voice to Monk Morrison. I. Lillie Maud Birdsong, being in a most generous mood do bequeath my superabundant accomplishments to Ruth Wilson: my esteemed social position to Edith Williford and my abbreviated skirts to Joyce Ricketts. Class Prophecy Ten years have passed by with noiseless tread. Filled with a longing desire to visit the mountains and breathe the invigorating air of the high Sierras. I hie me away to Westwood w-here I spent my high school days and was graduated with the class of 1922. The first sight of the old home tow-n certainly reminds one that many changes can take place in the course of ten years. The Red River Lumber Company has more than doubled its size and a new modern structure has taken the place of the high school building. I meet Miss Ball, my class teacher, who is now married to the speediest stenographer in the United States and is spending a year of rest and recupera- tion in Westwood. She invites me to her home where she tells me about the 1922 class. Peggy is now married to Lewis Erbes. They are living on a farm near Red Bluff raising Erbes and oranges.
