As if that were not enough or surprises, Madame Heffelgfinger gazed into the crystal ball again and saw a trim brown haired woman sitting in a steamer chair on a streamliner headed for Hawaii. She was dressed in the latest style and was accompanied by her husbandg he was dozing behing a newspaper, so we could not see who he was or what he looked like. We were surprised to see this, though we had always wondered if Maisie Sale would get her wish to go to Hawaii. Well, on to the last senior. Mme. Heffelfinger did not have to gaze far, for off the coast of California there is an island. This ball stopped there. She saw a short young man wearing a gray suit and a small cap and had a pistol strapped around his waist. He seemed to be surrounded by bars. The man had merry brown eyes and seemed contented. We thought that it was no one we knew, so we asked Mme. Heffelfinger to go on, but before we could say more, Mme. Heffelfinger said the man was Don Knudson. Well, what do you know? We did not think that Donnie would get into such a place, but we put our fears a- side and searched on. It came to us when he went to his office, for the door bore this inscription, 'sDon Knudson, Warden of Alcatrazfs ' With all our class accounted for, we paid our fee and left the English room, wondering if this would all come true. Evelyn Sale TRIP TO TOPEKA Would you like to shake the hand that shook the hand of Governor Carlson? This was the question going around Wil? Tuesday january 30, after the students had the opportunity to shake hands with the governor of Kansas on Monday. As a part of our educational pro- gram the faculty took all students to Topeka Monday, jan. 29 to see the Kansas legislature in session. Thetrip from Willis to the state capital was made in style with a police escort. Highway Patrolman, W.W. Smith of Hiawatha led the caravan of cars on the round trip. Besides seeing the Kansas legislature in session, we went to the capital dome and visited the Art Museum. The day will be remembered by those making the trip, especial? y the thrill of shaking hands with the governor. Betty white

AMERICAN HISTORY The American History Class learns something that is useful and true. We read of the heroes of yesteryear. American History helps citizens who are not certain of the kind of government they want. When they have studied history they will knowwhat kind of law their forefathers had and whether it was successful. lf it was not satisfactory they will know that they should not adopt this kind of government. Altogether it gives greater know- ledge and conversational ability on some of the subjects of antiquitv and the beginning of our country. - To know something of the lives and the works of some of the men and Women who have started our country is a great privilege and pleasure. By patterning our lives after great men We may live better. Evelyn Sale ST: PATRICK TEA The Kayettes entertained the mothers of all the students at a St. Patrick Tea on Wednesday afternoon, March 19, in the high school auditorium.

Each student who eats at the cafeteria pays twenty cents a meal. Mrs. Heffelfinger has planned the menus and Mrs. Tom Swear- ingen has prepared the food. There has usually been twelve students who ate there each day. - I Marvin Kale
