i 95 1 Tells the Tale of the Class of 1941 Lillian Sharpe has kept the old habit of study¬ ing ALL THE TIME BUT WE FEAR THAT SOMEONE HAS COME ALONG WHO CAN CHANGE THAT.ONLY A FEW WEEKS WILL TELL. Wait and see for yourself. Ruth Wells, that happy-go-lucky girl, has had ABOUT ENOUGH OF CAREER AND HAS DECIDED IT ' S THE BEST THING TO STICK TO YOUR MAN. Margaret Lynch has led a most successful life. At least, Billy and the children think so. Elaine Jobe has succeeded at last and is proud TO WALK BESIDE HER HEN-PECKED HUSBAND. Jack Finley has at last got a patent on his new type airplane. Gee, is he proudi Edmund Copple is settling down at last. We hope HIS BRIDE WILL BE PROUD OF HER FARMER HUSBAND. Annie Mae Lope is in love again, but it seems HARD FOR HER TO MAKE UP HER Ml NO. Fred Compton has kept his ball playing spirit AND HAS ACCEPTED A THREE YEAR CONTRACT TO COACH BASKET BALL AT CAROLINA THIS YEAR. I THINK HIS WIFE LIKES THIS SETTER THAN SHE DID ELON. Eulalia Ward seems to be quitting her job after so long a time. We wonder why. I suppose all OF THE NEWSPAPERS WILL TELL. Roy Clayton’s future is undecided, but i don’t THINK IT WILL BE THAT WAY LONG, AS HE WAS SEEN RECENTLY ESCORTING A GIRL TO CHURCH. ThAT IS GETTING CLOSE TO THE ALTAR, ISN’T IT? Mary Elizabeth Rogers has at last got that HOME SHE HAD DREAMED OF SO LONG.HER HUSBAND SEEMS TO BE QUITE A BRAG, ESPECIALLY ABOUT HIS Wl FE. Berneice Compton has been away .for some time NOW, BUT WE HEAR SHE BROUGHT HER MAN HOME FOR THE WEEK-END RECENTLY. Charlie Compton carried his bride-to-be to Ce¬ dar Grove last week-end. I hear she made quite A HIT WITH THE FAMILY. Louise Hopkins is about to marry an Aycock gra¬ duate. She seems proud to hang on to her same OLD PALS. Lulu Frances Compton has just had a wonderful home built. She is ready to quit teaching now. Dan Dixon’s new theatre draws the crowd. Every one considers him Carr’s most handsome million¬ aire.

Ellen Frances Laws has for a long time been set¬ tled DOWN ON the FARM WITH HER HUSBAND.A GRAD¬ UATE OF ANOTHER SCHOOL. WE ARE SURPRISED THAT HER HIGH-SCHOOL ROMANCE WAS NOT A SUCCESS. Henry Lea Roberts and his wi the COUNTRY. I SUPPOSE THEY WELL, AFTER ALL. Wilbur Poole doesn’t seem to be able to make up HIS MIND WHETHER HE’LL BE A BACHELOR OR GET MAR¬ RIED. We think he will prefer the latter. Alene Crabtree has had a promotion but she re¬ fused. t suppose you know the rest. Claude Hopkins seems to enjoy his work a great deal. We wonder if romance will never enter his life! Edith Clayton seems to be a wonderful secretary. At least. I suppose her boss thinks so-her hus¬ band, IN OTHER WORDS. Estelle McCulloch seems to be flying on air, but WHO WOULDN ' T, WITH A BIG CHURCH WEDDING ONLY 2 WEEKS OFF? Jack Williams seems to 8E a wonderful doctor. I HEAR HE HASN’T LOST A PATIENT YET. Ellen Frances Laws AYCOCK ( Tune: ’Must A Little Bit Soujh of North Carolina”) Just a beautiful spot in North Carolina, That’s where I long to be. In Aycock School in North Carolina Education waits for me. In each room, they say, each teacher is fine, And the students are fine and gay. All the rules are well and strictly kept, As THE CHILDREN MERRILY PLAY. Just a wonderful spot in North Carolina, That’s where I love to stay. I can haroly waid to see the gate And my friends who wait to play. Just a flourishing school in North Carolina- I’M GOING THERE EACH DAY’. Edith Clayton
