e.dal1THE TALISMANnC-Av ear IQ' YORK FACULTY We, the class of '25, cannot hope to he hack to York t'entralized School in l92ti, although we do hope to see all the instructors of this year hack again. As the school year is nearing an end, eaeh pupil regrets the thought of the time when he inust part with his teacher. Miss Morris has now finished her third year of teaching in the first grade room. The first graders would like always to stay in her room, hut they must trav'el along with time and leave her. Miss Kline was the instructor ot' the second grade, and this was her first year of teaching. She fills the vacancy left hy Miss Ries, who taught the first two years. e Miss Jones and Miss Strother. instructors of the third, fourth, and fifth grades, are two more teachers with whom the children do not like to part. Miss Jones has taught for three years, and Miss Strother has now finished her second year of teaching, taking Miss .lackson's place. Mr. Rhoades and Mr. Jones taught the sixth, seventh. and eighth grades.

e4onTHE TALISMANn6N 100 IGN with her in California, where she was taking care of infants in an orphans, home. As Fauna and I had quite a long wait we 'thought we would go to a lunch room and have a lunch and then we would attend a vaudeville afterward. As we entered the lunch room we noticed a young lady at the farthest end of the room singing. Fauna said, lVhy, that is Harriet Jones singing back there, and, sure enough: it was. We went right back to talk to her. She was just as small as ever and had just as good a voice. llarriet had heard from Ilo Faurot, who was in California teaching Mathematics in one of the largest universities. After lunch Fauna and I went to one of the largest vaudevilles in New York. When the players came out we noticed one of them to be Eleanor Uhl. another of our class-mates of '25, After the vaudeville we went up to talk with Eleanor and how surprised she was to see us. She said that since she had been on the stage she had received four divorces and was now looking strongly for her fifth marriage license to appear. As we had a few more hours to wait yet we went to one of the athletic universities of New York. VVe met the professor of the university and he noticed our rings and then he said that two of the pupils from York had graduated from this university. VVhen we questioned him and asked him who they were and where they were now, he surprised us by saying that they were Harold Gamble and Elizabeth Thomas. 4'Elizabeth is the girls' coach at Oberlin College, Ohio, and Harold is the boys' coach at the same college. By this time our ship was ready to take us abroad. As we got on the deck we recognized the sea captain as Kenneth Morris, and with him along, we didnit have much time to get sea sick. Kenneth had heard 'from Walter Phelps. He was still in York Township on a farm and was known as one of the best farmers in Ohio. The first place that we went when we landed was to Paris, France, and then We Went over to view the scenery of Germany. Here is where Fauna had to leave me and go to where her duty called her. While I was in Germany I thought I would go and visit the Strassburg University, a large science university that I had heard so much about. As 1 was walking through one of its halls I saw a young man coming toward me. I thought the face looked familiar. VVhen he passed me I recognized him as Clifton Hosier. He said he was teaching Science in this university. He cor- responds with Lester Morris. Lester was traveling with the Jonestown Circus, which has sprung up in the last few years. Clifton said that it was better known than the Barnum and Bailey Circus. , A From Germany I went over to Denmark and at the edge of Copenhagen was a large cream station owned and managed by Russel Brunni. Now that I had seen or heard of all of my class-mates of '25 I toured over the rest of Europe and enjoyed my visit better. -A.D.
