THE TOOT Vera Kilts, who showed much promise in her home-making class, is now a dress designer at Clockville. Eva Pon- ticello is known in Hollywood’s smart- est circles as ‘‘Theda Bara, the sec- ond.” Minnie Olcott has climbed the ladder to success and is the assistant kindergarten teacher at Peterboro. Her main duty is to put the little children’s coats, hats and rubbers on when they go out to play. “The Crystal becomes blank said Catherine, “I can see no more.” I wanted to talk some more about the good old school days, but people were waiting in a long line outside Catherine’s tent to see what the cry- stal held for them. I sadly said “good- CLASS We, the class of 1930, of Canastota High School, village of Canastota, Town of Lenox, County of Madison, State of New York, being of sound mind and body, do make, publish and declare this our last will and testa- ment, hereby declaring null and void any other document which may be drawn up by any one of this imbecile body. To the Juniors, we leave our dignity and the front seats in Chapel, pro- viding they get there ahead of the Freshmen. To Miss Powers and Miss Jutkie- wicz, our worthy advisers, we leave our deepest appreciation for their un- tiring efforts in our behalf thruout the year.

As I walked along, lost in my thoughts, I bumped into some one with a force that almost knocked me over. It was Mr. Cox, my old friend, who is still sweeping the floors of the high school and making loving couples leave the building at 4:30. It seemed good to see Mr. Cox again and we had a long visit. This was a memorable day in my life, to hear about my school mates again, and as I started home these words came into my mind: The thoughts of you, so good, so true, Will fill our eyes with tears.” —Mary Frost WILL We thoughtfully dedicate the park- ing place in the library to Kenneth and Marion.

1$ THE TOOT CLASS PROPHECY In 1930 I parted with my dear class- mates, wondering what the future held for us all. For these many years I have not heard or seen anything of them, but one day as I passed a cry- stal-gazing tent at the State Fair, I decided to see what fortune had dealt each one. I entered this very bizarre looking place and was thereupon told to cross the lady’s palm with silver. As she spoke, it seemed as if I had heard her voice before. I gazed at her for a moment and then shouted—Catherine McCullough! She immediately recog- nized my loud voice which had not changed much in ten years and we began to talk about old high school days. I asked her about a few of our school mates and she knew no more about them than I, but she said that she would consult her crystal and see what pictures would be brought be- fore her. We sat in silence for several minutes and then Catherine spoke— I can see many things—our old friend Marie Roberts is the assistant music teacher at Wampsville Acade- my. Earl Lockerby gives daily radio talks on the home life of the Tomato Worm and other insects harmful to agriculture and Mandalay Grems has world fame as a chemist. It was she who discovered the tonic that is guar- anteed to preserve the color of red hair. Madeline Woolsey is an opera singer in Gruber’s new Metropolitan Opera and is well known on the rad- io. Katherine Greiner owns and runs a tea room at Oneida Creek. Charlotte Church, who had journal- istic ambition is the Editor of the “Peoria Daily.” Carl Dentler is the champion xylophone player of the United States and a collector of sib verware. “Eudie” Sykes is somebody’s “Stenog” and Pearl Venturine has risen to a great height as private secretary to Mr. McLean. George Her- tel is the originator of that famous Hertel’s Hair Restorer. Hazel Allis and Ruby Stone main- tain a school for dumb animals— mostly boys, with Curtis Cronk as Assistant Principal. Bessie and Rosie Kolar, the only twins our high school could ever boast of are back in Can- astota and their main occupation is gum samplers for C. H. S. “Peg” Cady has realized her greatest ambition— head Football coach at Colgate. Lillian Morse is keeping the home fires burning for Roland. Sam Sorbello is now the chauffeur for the Indian Opening school child- ren. Betty Musacchio is a special nurse (dark, curly-haired boys pre- ferred) in St. Lawrence University’s Infirmary. Gordon Klock is still the answer to a Maiden’s Prayer and Alice Stoner is a model at Gimbel’s in New York City. Inez Wells is the hostess of Perryville’s foremost night club. Irene Margrey, the girl with the megaphone voice is now the champ- ion husband caller of Perryville and Muriel Buhrig is way over in Sweden trying to teach German to the little Swedish boys and girls. Dorothy Cal- houn teaches the Canastota High School boys hotel management. Alas! Poor Charlie Sykes, whom the teachers used to pick on, is now married and is head of the Henpecked Husbands’ Union. Miriam Walton is still declaring that she will not sup- port a husband and is an old maid school teacher. Charles Ostrander has become one of the most impressive of all the lecturers on me Redpath Chau- tauqua’s summer tours. Charlie doesn’t even turn pale at the sight of women in the audience. Mary Calli is a chorus girl, the sixth blonde from the left, in Ziegfeld’s Follies of 1940. John Dinneen is a high pressure salesman for “Flit”. Mary Carr is the precep- tress of Union Corners High School.

To Emerson Welch we leave an au- tomatic wind-shield wiper for use in History C class when cleaning his glasses. The girls’ basketball team leaves to the boys’ basketball team a ground- hog for a mascot. To the Chapel students we leave a supply of grass blades on which to sound their pitch. To those students who possess strong criminal qualities we leave a pair of footpads with which to walk past Miss Clines’ door when going in the wrong direction.
