DDD 'DDD0000D-Q- i fa , , , , Presidentfs Farewell Fellow Students: I started out this way because I believe that all of us have studied some time or other during our two years stay at Burdett. Anyway whether we have or not most of us have held the pace and graduation is with us. I We have all believed that a forced smile is better than a held back laugh and so let's say ishkibibble and go out and enjoy the picnic. Let'slook on the bright side of life, don't think that we are forever parting but that men have more fun than rabbits, and that we will be together often in our class reunions. We have gained many things during our two years'stay here Qwho doesn't think that his winnings exceed his assetsj and for these things we are grateful to blackjack-pardon-Burdett. We owe much to her which can never be fully repaid, but we shall ever try to hold enough out of the proverbial sock to meet our obligations-back tuition, twenty cents for November Lion, and seven dollars and ten cents for class dues-but why go on-we're getting near the bottom of the page and we have nothing-er, er,-much to say. Let's heed seriously the sign placed above railroad crossings: STOPl LOOK! LISTEN! Stop and take account of stock-our equipment, our determination, our attitude toward our fellows, our moral and physical strength, our aims and ambitions. The thoughts we think make the life we lead. Look out upon the world and see that it is splendid. Always place the good above the evil. See the best in our fellows, not the worst. Listen to the hum of industry, to the song of achievement and to the call of service, for it is our service to mankind that will measure the success of our lives. Let us thank Burdett for making it possible toheed these things and make her proud of us by accomplishing these things. I s health, happiness and prosperity. let's On closing, I wish my fellow student Soby Pud P. S.-Said I knowing nothing about farewell SPGGCFICS, HCMFCSSGS, and other methods of filling up space.

The first place I visited was the school and lo' a fifty story building greeted my eyes. On top of the building an enormous sign announced to the world that the entire building was occupied by that now most famous of institutions. In the entrance was a directory to various departments and to my surprise the list of officers was as follows: DF. A. Eflyaft President Harold L. Goodwin Vice-President Christian Ehrles , . , Treasurer Then I realized how the school had attained such a phenomenal success. Under the guidance of such capable officers how could Burdett do anything but grow. The Doc and Harold told me however that they had tried to watch Chris very closely. It seems that, excellent treasurer tho' he was, his eyes were poor and he couldn't tell the school's money from his own. In defense of himself Chris said that all money looked alike, being facsimiles, and was it any won- der he made a mistake. After a good talk with the Doc, I inquired for my old school mates and expressed a desire to see them all again. To my surprise, Doc said Icould. I really thought the poor fellow a bit balmy until he explained that two of the twenty-niners, Bill Gentleman and Sandy Wil- son had left the business field and become inventors. It seems that they had their ability by in- venting excuses for absences during their school days. The boys had discovered that every per- son sent out a distinct electrical impulse so they had, after years of effort, perfected a machine which they called the 'fDetecto-Vision. The machine would pick up the image of any person no matter where they were, and throw it on the screen. Following the Doctor's directions, I arrived at their laboratory and after shaking hands was greeted by the familiar query, Got a cigarette? I furnished them with Drew's Synthetic Cigarettes made from the finest cornsilk. His slogan is After you draw on a Drew you'll never draw on another. I never knew whether that was a threat or not. VVe then entered the room where the machine was. I immediately sat down and started to move the dials until a picture appeared on fthe screen. Slowly it materialized and then who? where? what? Surely enough, even as in school where he came first on the roll, came Anderson's image. .There he was, running about among icebergs clad in Wong's Finest silk underwear. He was in the ArCt1C SUDQFVIS' ing the construction of a pipe line which was to carry enough cold air to :Washington to Counter- act the hot air dispelled by our favorite Senators, Cliff Hathorn and Eddle FHIICY- These two were Causing much Suffering from the heat and the pipe line idea was suggested and financed b I the countr 's leadin banker,-Blood. H 5 The nextiimage wai hard to focus. First I thought it Was Hpfld, Blew and then I tliolight it was 'fBOb Beard. It Seems that thru constant association their impulses were very similar. Finally Hpudfsff image Cleared and imagine my astonishment. There was Pud in darkest Africa, surrounded bv natives most of whom were wearing Spirella Corsets. Plld had found ' .
