If we have succeeded in achieving this purpose, our satisfaction is completeg although our Work may not have surpassed that of preceding years. The Staff wishes to extend its thanks and ap- preciation to those who have aided materially in making this book a success, and likewise express the hope that those who read this volume derive as much pleasure from it as we derived in creating it. was 33 DEDICATION T is only fitting that we should dedicate this fifth volume of the Algonquin to the Father of our Country, George Washington, who spent half a lifetime in the service of his country. To him, who by his self-sacrifice and devotion gave us our liberty, we owe our most heart-felt gratitude. We feel that we can celebrate the bi-centennial of his birth in no more appreciative manner than by this dedicationg the first to anyone outside the ranks of the living. was .fx 1 B ,Q v I 2 , l l THE FACULTY PRINCIPAL-Hugvh C.

Howard We are the class of '32, Sailing around, we are the crew. In '28 our Freshman year, We had just loads of things to fear. The Senior class, they picked on us They called us green, we were, I trust. We had a dance on Hallowe'en, And gave ia prize for king and queen. Cider, apples and ice cream cone We had for lunch, then, all went home. Our Sophomore year in '29 We certainly had a peachy time. Again, a dance on Hallowe'en A great success, is what I mean. Our Junior year, I'd like to say, Was full of fun, so clear the way, Had a food sale and made ten bucks. Now, that is what A-h calls good lucks. And then there was the Junior Prom, Now, all who went, had lots of fun, The girls were dressed to look their best. Just ask some kids, they'll tell the rest. And now this year, a year of years, Is full of joy, but yet, there's tears. Our Senior Ball was not 'till May. We'll ne'er forget it to this day. We hate to leave this dear old school Never to hear the golden rule. We wish all luck to those next year That they may have days full of cheer. Irene Given. GV-'S ivfxill A XS lla 9 I 3 , THE CLASS PHOPHECY OF 1932 Everyone is amazed now that the secret is revealed. What secret? Don't you know? I'll tell you. About a week ago, the Senior Class of Canton High School visited a small, cozy place of business on Main Street. The sign read: We foretell the future. The students ventured to enter without being seen, but this was im- possible. As they entered, they had to place their name and age on a slip of paper. Then they proceeded up a long stairway into a suite of rooms. The rooms were very well furnished but not elaborate. As the students entered, they took seats around a small table which was placed in the center of the sitting room. After everyone had been seated, a tea cup and saucer was placed upon the table. Everything was buzzing with whispers from the students, when two old ladies, brightly attired, walked into the room. The atmosphere of the room changed im- mediately, and the buzzing became silence. The ladies pulled the curtains on the windows and turned all lights off except o-ne small lamp in the center of the table. Everything began to look dark and cloudy. Hands stretched forth, and words were spoken, but no faces could be seen, as they were in total darkness. Ah! what is that voice in the distance? It is coming nearer! It is growing stronger! What's it trying to say? Yes, watch the cup closely, you shall see, - What?-1945-What can that mean? Sh! listen. Frances Phalon! You should have been aware of the future. 'That 'tAggie boy was bluffing you. You should never have married him. Get a divorce! Don't move, people-listen closely! Ruth Banford! You are v-ery happy! 1945 has brought you luck! Nothing else but being a baby tender would have satisfied you. You are earning S5 a we-ek, room and board. The light is blinking! Alfred Walters will you leave it alone! We do not have to look into the cup to see that you're a clown. Barnum, Bailey, and Ringling Brothers are lucky to have you with them, to say nothing of the B. E. C. Circus, your last year in High School. You certainly can make people laugh. Well, well! This looks like Walter Howard. No, it's Everett Clark! Everett, what have you been doing with yours-elf? Gee, you look great! How's your busi- ness? You have? Gee, that's great, old man. We knew you'd succeed as a sales- man. So you're selling Rodgers Romping Rompers! I hear you made a great sale to the inmates at Ogdensburg State Hospital. So your best custom-ers are the three Taylor girls ? Leona, Doris, and Dore-en? Studying did this? No, no, they're not inmates here, they're the three chief nurses. Have I met your boss? I'll say I have. I knew Bill Rodgers would succeed. That's a great business manufacturing rompers. Imagine that sign before you: Rodgers Romping Ro-mpers. ' The tea grounds are changing. Oh! I see a beautiful mansion-Hollywood- and Marie Place. I knew it, Marie. I'm glad your dreams have come true. No, she's not in the movies. She's married and is she happy? We wonder who the lucky one can be? Can anyone give a guess? A little more water, please. Here, I have it. Don't move around, students- here it is! A crowd, music, laughter, and a theater in New York City-there's Marion Burrowes. Why, she's dancing the barefoot dance! How well sh-e does it! I wonder what gave her this inspiration? Maybe the Dramatic Club initiation in C. H. S. Sh! What a sweet voice! Madam May, the wonder of the world. Yes, May Spicer is a great singer, now. I can remember when she used to sing in C. H. S. Why, there's Freddie Clark's Chevie in front of the State Hospital in Ogdensburg. What can this mean? Why, you know Doris Taylor's a nurse, here. But that's not all, Freddy owns a pharmacy in Morley and he's doing well. White? White! Yes, a hospital-ther-e's Jessie Snyder! She's a beautiful nurse. Why, sh'e's leaning over a bed. Who can her patient be? Why Don Place, what happened to you? No wond-er, Jessie's all excited. We don't blame you, Jessie. Love is a beautiful thing. i X . . .J 5 I Gbps .fi A S l,l.- 9 r 3 ' What can be the meaning of all this? Everything is lining up. Why, just look at the history books, Guitteau, Schlesinger, Young. What! Why, Helen Stone. Who can believe it, you.'re a history teacher! What! More history? Y-es, a large building- Howard, Inc. Why that must be Walter Hofward and he's manufacturing History Review Books. Canton High School i.s very fond of these. Dirt roads! A Ford! And Ken Nipe. We knew you'd be a salesman. Oh, these travelling salesmen! But, Ken is not really selling just now, he- is on his way home to his wife, and two kids. ' More water, please! O-h! I poured all the tea grounds out! No, there's one at the top! What? An airplane! Her'by How-e, I knew it. Getting kinda high aren't you? What's the name of your plane? Just Herby Howe. Well, I got some more grounds. Don't be impatient. Yes, Betty, I'll see what you're doing. Here we are-Betty Ashley! Still going with' college boys. We're surprised that 13 years has not brought you luck in marriage. Whispering Leota - Whispering Jack Smith's competitor-Leota Hemingway is not whispering in school any more-she's whispering over the radio. What can be the tea grounds at the side of the cup? A tall dark haired girl is standing on the street corner, near Canton High School. Why, Irene Given! Who'd ever think it? What's she saying? Alarm clocks sold here! Just the thing to wake you in the morning! First it whispers, then it shouts! Experience has proved that alarm clocks are necessary-right this way! I wonder if she's thinking of her high school days when she used to be late for school every morning? Alarm clocks! What, again? There's Annette Rebert. Buy a Given, Rebert, alarm and be at school on time! Did you ever see these two when they wern't together? The curtain rises and falls-we see seated at a desk, Vincent Riley, dictating to his stenographer, a treatise to be printed in the St. Lawrence Plaindealer. It is not Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, it is Gentlemen Prefer Brunettes. What thirteen years can do to a person! Bob Heffernan is now a lawyer--he's following his father's footsteps. Now, when he's in an accident, he consults himself in his own favor. Earl-dear old Earl Kennedy! At last his dreams have come true! A cute little bungalow and a beautiful wife! Who is she? Ask Earl. Why Jean! Jean Tait is busy selling Freddie's Flavored Flakes, breakfast food. Oh! boy! are they good? These two seem to stick together. If he's not courting her, she's selling breakfast food for him. Aggie school! and then-a beautiful farm. Doris Han-ey is now making some farmer a good wife. She met him at Aggie School. Yes, she's very happy-they have a large farm on the Pyrites road and keep two cows, sixteen chickens, and one pig. We have enough tea grounds for the rest of you I believe-Catherine and Marion, will you change the grounds around. Thank you. There's a circle in the bottom of the cup! What can this mean? Oh, yes- You will now hear the famous C's, Carney and Collins, the world famous singers! They're appearing 'before a large, appreciative audience. And believe it or not-they're better than Kate Smith ever thought of being. Here we are! Agnes Cotter and Clarence Conant. No! No! They're not mar- ried or engaged, either. Just partners in business. Clarence i.s giving Agnes some hints in Beauty aids. Clarence is the barber and Agnes the 'beauty operator. Right this way! See the world's most beautiful pianist-Carmeta Walters. Why she's playing classical music. No more jazz for her! There's Pauline Dishaw right near Carmeta-the inseparable pair-Pauline's cracking jokes as usual. This leads away from the monotony of classical music, which Carvmeta plays. Oh! ice, snow, and a hockey champ , None other than our little George Perry. He's playing hockey now instead of hockey , Up on the sidelines can be seen our eminent lawyer, Thelma Planty, who is very famous for her success in divorce cases. was fi A S f a 3 ! Thirteen years has not brought her hard luck.- She and George- are still the same lovable pair. Married? Well, I guess! 5 Tall, straight, and severe islthis tea ground. It's noneyother than our pal, Eunice Dodds. Eunice enjoysffteaching in country schools. No one can skip class with her! She preaches what she,.didn't practice during her high schhool days. Too much sugar in the cup-Hattie, you must have a sweet tooth. What's this? Another hospital-it's in Plattsburg. Why Hattie Gallinger a nurse. I wonder if this is her only inter-est-you know tginers a boy's training camp near by. Sh! don't tell anyone, but iI'll let you in on a secret-Arloeen Howard isn't working any more in 5 and 10 centktores. She's now manager of the Howard De- partment Store of family accessqrges. .By the way, I can see Elizabeth Howard buying some dishpans. She's married and lives in Piercefield with her husband. What's this? A female politician? Why, it's Margaret McCormick. She must have gained her ability from being a publlc speaker in C. H. S. Why Bob Flynn! Who'd expect it, but he's in Hawaii financing a la1'ge pineapple corporation. They call him Pineapple Bob ! ' Oh Boy! Just look att' those lights--f Earlyne McDonald now featured in 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes'. She'.s a great hit on Broadw-ay. Just a few grounds left-there's Irene Rood. We can se-e that she's attending many neighborhood parties, lately-there's some initials-Bennie G.-who can that be? Ask Irene, she'l1 tell you. Those grounds have a queer smell to them. Smells like a doctor's office-yes, it is! Mary Taylor ha.s just received an M. D. degree. Sh-e's followed her brother's footsteps and is now one of the greatest doctors in the United States. ' Why John! Who'd think it? John Sawyer is head of a big firm in the Middle West. Sawyer Kr Sawyer's B. V. D.'s. fBigger Variety in Diamondsl. We've all heard about the cotton king and the wheat king, but have you heard of the speed king ? Well, here's George+Daredevil George Thomas, with his thunderbolt speeding along the Florida coast, breaking the world's record. Better be careful George-don't break any love records. Taffy! Oh, boy! Mary Tobin .still has a pull but not with the teachers this time. She's pulling taffy in a 5 and 10 in Ogdensburg. Sticky business, but it's sweet! Who's last? Come right up Rex and fix your future. Rex Crump, the famous strong man. Rex is in the circus. His famous saying is Me, I'm the big cheese around here! I wonder if he's too 'big to ride in Ausitins now? What's that noise? Bob Healy owns a jazz band now. He's the drummer, you know, and is h-e good! There was a great laugh as they descended the stairs-and back to C. H. S. and graduation. Irene Given and Annette Rebert. 0 S ,fix A S 4' 4 , CLASS SONG The days are ended, work and play together Have brought us happiness to last forever, These friends may leave us, we may journey far, The years may burden us with toil and care. Refrain But, oh the memories of high school years Will drown the memories of doubt and fears: Our school, our memories, will give us cheer Will give us cheer. The years are ended, high school days are gone, But thoughts and memories will linger ong Like knights of old, seeking Holy Grail, The world before us lies, to gain- We shall not fail!

Dr. J. B. Pike, the director, was there, and talking with whim about the recently completed building were Mr. Merton Smith, the contractor in charge of its erection, and myself. Soon, as I rose to leave with the contractor, I said, You two were marked for The doctor fell to reminiscing about our school days. I wonder, he mused, what ever became of the members of our class-what they're doing now. I closed the door and we sat down again. Remember Leonard Fisk-the boy who never had any difficulty in writing poetry and getting nineties in Caesar? He's a poet and a naturalist now. finished his latest book, and it certainly is great. Dick Given's another that shone in English, added Mert. I hear he's a journalist with the Times now. Speaking of high grades reminds me of Bernita Rexford and Madgeline Cota, saiid he and concluded, They're both up-state social workers. Dr. Pike made mention of the situations that used to arise in Miss Barber's English classes and in the Latin classes. Sometimes Miss Schwartz cou1dn't make us understand 'Caesar's point of view. We were like Myron MicDermid, who could read The Belgian War like A Tale of Two Cities on Monday and on Tuesday had trouble with translation. Caesar is the least of his worries now, for the last time I was in Canton I found that he and his brother Larry, with Arthur Spicer and Ben Pierce, are runnirig the biggest and best dairy farm St. Lawrence County ever knew.

I demanded of my friends. They chorused, Haven't you heard that he's the Director of Manufacturing in Tucker Lawrence's lens-making concern? Merton put a question up towthe doctor. Spud, you kept track of the girls pretty well in those days. Canftfyou tell us where some of them find themselves now? Winking at me, he replied, as if offended, That from my best friend! Well, take Martha Clark-an architect, with an office in this building, in fact. And take Doreen Cornell, who's a star on Broadway.

THE FRESHMAN CLASS When we graduated from Grammar School in June, 1931 we were the highest class, but now we are the lowest one again. The Senior Class has -the place we held last year. Every Freshman knows that if he works hard he will soon be at the head again, so Freshmen let's show 'Canton people and our teachers what we are made of. Last year we thought the grammar school was the best in the world, but now that we are in high school we like this equally well. The Freshman class is good and we are here to win.

This year, we have tried to make it more successful than ever. With the aid of our washing machines, the mimeoigraph and typewriters, we have put forth clean, read- able laundry in the form of our school paper. Our laundrymen, the Wash Staff, have scoured the High School every week for school news. They have made true the saying that It all comes out in the Washg for little has escaped their prying eyes. Each Wednesday night, the student body has produced its nickels to buy the Wash. The entire Wash Staff wish to thank the students both in the High School and Grammar School for their cooperation. We sincerely hope that the Wash may ever be successful in many years to come. Editor in Chief .... Art Editor ...... Athletic Editor .. Exchange Editor ... Business Manager . Feature Writer ....

The season was started with a team of new men, few o-f them had any experience, but under the leadership of Coach Oliver, and Captain Rex Crump, this same team of greenhorns played like veterans. The first league game of the season ended in a stinging defeat. This merely served as a whip does to a lagging horse, for the next week Po,tsdam's mighty team was held to a scoreless tie. After this small taste of victory, Canton struck her stride. Gouverneur was beaten by a decisive score. However, the best game of the season was the Malone game. Canton's small team went down to Malone, played a larger and more experienced team off their feet to earn the right to play in the championship the following week. The championship, played at Weeks Athletic Field before a record crowd, was a battle royal. It was not until the final whistle that Ogdensburg was sure of their victory. The best play of the game was Captain Crump's run of fifty-five yards through the entire Ogdensburg team for a touchdown. In honor of the team, three very delicious banquets were given, one by Frank Sanford, the freshman tackleg one by Rex Crump, ex-captaing and one by the Canton Advertising Club. At the Hrst banquet, the captain for next season was elected. Th-e Class of 1932 wishes Canton teams, and Captain Wilmer Thomas another successful season. was 32 BASKETBALL Canton High Schoolls basketball team experienced a season of ups and downs. The team showed possibilities, but for some reason, they did not work right at the right time. The brilliant part of the season was the defeat of Malone, Ogdensburg, Potsdam, and Watertown. At the end of the season, they were tied with Malone. It was necessary to play the deciding game at Potsdam. Canton lost the game by the score of 19 to 16, and the right to play in the tournament the following week, slipped through her Hngers. The team was made up of: Captain Rex D. Crump, left guard, Wilmer Thomas, right guardg Kenneth Nipe, centerg Glenn Wright, right forward, Lysle Snyder, left forward. The following substitutes made their blocks: Alfred Walters, Robert Coakley, Frank Sanford, Carl Barbour, and Charles Kahala. Donald Crary was manager. Wit-h Glenn Wright elected as Captain for next year, and the return of such men as Thomas, Coakley, and Sanford, the prospect is quite good. Mr. Oliver will again re-turn as Coach, and will probably develop a smooth-working aggregation, in spite of the loss of Nipe and Crump, two old veterans, and one of the most well- known pair of players in Northern New York. was , il ,V .

One irr-eat disadvantage this year was that, with the excep- tion ot' lVlartha Clark, all the grirls were quite short.

The shining man of the team is Lawrence O'Brien. Larry runs the hundred yard dash, the two-twenty yard run, and is anchor man on -the relay team. There have been two meets, both held at Oigdensburg. Larry has taken first in his events with comparative ease. Harry Wheeler and Donald Place are O'Brien's running mates in the sprints. Both are on the relay team. Place runs Hrst, and Wheeler third. It is notable that both of these men are freshmen. The fourth man on the relay team is Oscar Howard, who, in the two mee-ts, has given his man a lead, and then beaten him to the finish line. The relay team is another bright hope for the track team. Donald Crary is the bright spot among the distance men. Cabbage has finished second in the first meet, and third in the second. He has apparently loomed out of nowhere. But who cares for that, as long as he gets there? In the mile, there are a number of candidates with possibilities, Carl Barber being the leading one. Ralph Dona and Vernon Lawrence are out getting some needed practice, and are progressing rapidly. The hurdles and field events are rather weak. John Sawyer and Mark Banks are both trying for the hurdles, but as yet, they have not mastered the art. In the field events, Wilmer Thomas is the best aspirant up to date. Willie trys the high jump and the pole vault, and in the first meet, he captured first in the high jump and second in the pole vault. Robert Coakley and Lysl-e Snyder are also candidates for t-he pole vault, but they both are still in need of practice. The shot put is represented by John Sawyer and Harry Wheeler, as well as Frank Sanford. There has been no captain elected for this yar. However, Larry O'Brien is the most possible candidate. Canton High has never been as interested in track as in football and basketball, but the boys who are out, show the correct spirit, and that is half of the game. -Clarence Conant. was .fx f r -a, ORCHESTRA Although the orchestra lost several valuable members last June, the band has given it two, making the present membership as follows: First violins, Richard Gaines, Martha Clark, Robert Helfernang second violin, Alice Priestg clarinet, William Butlerg trombone, John Sawyerg drums, Mary Hoff-ernang piano, Helen Tupper.

A dish-pan full of sudsy hot water! What memories, girls, does this scene 'bring to you? Pleasure or drudgery? Pleasure to me. One Saturday morning, I was enacting the above scene when suddenly a bubble detached itself from the suds and floated into space. It had almost reached the ceiling' when the bulbble 'burst and Miss Gage appeared, I am the Dramatic Instructor at Canton High School. All these bubbles are the members. I will introduce them to you. One by one, the bubbles floated into the air, bursting as Miss Gage intro- duced them. Then, to my aimazement, 'a large bubble in the pan began to open. Out popped a large living room, the very replica of the room in Annette Rebert's home, where our first meeting was held. Slowly figures began to appear. Yes, there is our President, Marie Place, our Vice-president, Jack Sheridan, and Secretary and Treasurer, Irene Given. Who are the others, there? Th-ey are our ten old members and Miss Gage. By the way, this was not our only meeting. We had many others, one being an alumni meeting at 'Bill' Cornell's. Five large and quee-r looking bubbles, expressing joy, dance merrily from the pan. We are December 11-15 or initia-tion week. We added fifteen new members and ended on the fifteenth with a Christmas party. Just ask the initiates about us! Whwt's this? A string of pearls? No, just a row of bubbles- T-H-E I-N-N-E-R C-I-R-C-L-E. Ah, yes, this play went over great and half the proceeds went to the unemployed. All this happened on January 22. I am George Washington. In May you presented a bicenitenniial program in honor of me. I am very grateful and I'm certainly glad it was a success. What! The bubble's not going so soon? Yes, I must go now, but I leave my memories with you. Good-by and the bubble floated away. -Irene Given. ads PWL- 3 SCENE FROM PLAY INNER CIRCLE THE ANNUAL PUBLIC SPEAKING CONTEST Back on the evening of March IS, 1932, a group of public speakers, headed by Miss Gage, contended for the prizes, this year donated by the Board of Education, which were two five-dollar gold pieces and two two-and-a-half-dollar gold pieces.

The question is constantly asked, What does the question mark after XYZ? mean? The answer is simple! The boys wondered if the fraternity would be a success-but we've only to look at the present XYZ? fraternity to know that they not only have been successful but can proudly boast of a fraternity with a high morale and a fraternity that is proud of its boys who are prominent in the school's athletics and clubs. This y-ear our Good Ship XYZ? is lead by none other than Rex Crump, who was this year's football and basketball captain and Senior Class President. Bob Healy is our able Vice-president and Ken Nipe, Secretary and Treasurer. Several new members have been initiated into the fraternity and they have tlhe same XYZ? spirit and willingness to help that is prevalent in our group. Our membership now totals 26. During the year we sponsored our annual tea dance which proved a huge success. We again upheld the honor, glory and prestige of the fraternity by defeating the O. A. P.'s in basketball. In March, we had a sleigh ride, on which everyone had a malgniiicenit time. We'll lose, through graduation, several members, and they'll be missed greatlyg but we wish them lots of success and good luck in whatever they undertake. And so- We've got a great long history But it would take too long to tell, Three letters tell the story It's XYZ ?-so all farewell! -Robert Healy. ads srl K tix Y V, 9 1 3 l OMICRON ALPHA Pl The Omicron Alpha Pi Frat-ernity, which was found-ed in 1904, has completed another very successful year in Canton High School.

Initiations were held early in October, eight members being received into the fraternity. Members of the fraternity have been v-ery active both in athletic and social functions throughout the year.

Social functions during -the year consisted of a tea-dan-ce, which was very successful both socially and financiallyg a picnic and a banquet.

Very few members were left over from 1 t h l as sc' oo year. The 'ten members left made provisions to get new memlbers. Trhe Club increased to over thirty.

We belong to a state honorary society Les Babillardsf' of which we are the Theta Chapter. Last year, there were fourteen meinters in th club who were charter members, but we soon took in four more. Since many of last yt-ar's members graduated, we began this year with quite a petite club, but with a new leader, Miss Frances Scurrah. Early in the year, we initiated three new French linguists, Cecile Peters, Jessie Snyder and Ernestine Taylor. Our officers elected for the first sem-ester were: President, Walter Howard, Vici- president, Annette Rebert, Secretary, Jean Tait, Treasurer, Ruth Banford, and Social Chairmen, Doris Taylor and Marion Burrowes. Cnce, la.st semester, we sent in material for Le Journal Bavard, a French paper printed in Rochester, the head- quarters of Les Bahillardsf' Of all the material sent in, they printed only one little joke. Imagine that! After Regents in January, according to our constitution, we had to elect new officers. Here are the results: President, William Rodger, Vice- president, Jean Tait, Secretary, Annette Rebert, Treasurer, Jessie Snyder, and Social Chairman, Ruth Banford and Cecile Peters. At this same meeting, we voted to admit into our circle, Beatrice Sawyer, Patricia Gratto, Katherine Benton, Mark O'Driscoll, Ev-elyn Fraser and Philip Reynolds. Due to many other activities around school, we have not done much this year except to hold meetings, but we hope that, when the club becomes more firmly organized the members next year, and after, will make it on-e of the leading societies of Canton High School. -Jean Tait. S l I !JL , D v Orrl I A ff ,. .- ., i . K 'I S ,. v i - ' i MISS PURDY'S REGINALD It was early this afternoon that it all happened. I was playing the piano and singing, when suddenly a terrible yell sounded from the back yard. I rushed out at once, and ther-e was Miss Purdy. She was running up and down the alley, shrieking and wringing her hands. Oh, Reginald! she was crying. Oh, Reginald! Oh, Reginald! Reginald? I said to myself, who's he? And just then I saw him, away up at the tsp of a telephone pole. He was her cat. When Miss Purdy saw me coming, she made a rush for me. Oh, I'm so glad you've come, she squealed. Oh, save my littie .black and white kitty! Save him! Save him! What's the matter? 1 asked. He's all right, isn't he? All right? .snapped Miss Purdy, away up there on the top of that pole. Why, how ridiculous. Well, having nothing else to do, I joined the chorus, and together we made the alley ring with our calls to kitty. First Miss Purdy would call, then I would have a try at it. Then both together in duet style, we would plead with Reginald to come back to earth. Suddenly Miss Purdy stopped and seem-ed to have an idea. She looked at the telephone pole and then at me. I felt chills playing tag on my back. Oh, please do it, sh-e cried loudly. Please save Reginald and I'll give you anything you want. Before I could get my breath, 1 was being pushed up the pole by Miss Purdy. At last I was almost to the top, and I looked up to see if the cat was still th-ere. Yes, he was, but h-e was looking down at-me with sort of a greenish light in his eyes that gave me the shivers. I lookecfdown toward the ground and there was Miss Purdy doing a war-dance around the foot of the pole. That, you know, sort of encouraged me to go on. Hello, kitty, I said, when I got within speaking distance. How's the weather up here? For an answer, Reginald turned and hissed in my face. Hold still now, while I grab you, I told the cat, and hanging on with one hand, I reached out with the other. At that Reginald struck at me with both forepaws. I became desperate, and clutched Reginald around the neck. Whew! I can still hear the assortment of screeches, screams and yells that cat gave me. And without apology whatever, he left his trademark in several places. Meanwhile ,from down below came' other sounds of noises. ' Talk gently to him, called Miss Purdy. Tell him that if he comes down, he'll have some nice cream for dinner. Well, I was certainly up a tree then. Pardon me, I mean up a pol-el I didn't know what to do next. Should I save the cat or save my face? Which was worse to battle with-the cat on the top of the pole or Miss Purdy at the bottom? I looked up and then I looked down. I decided on the cat. The next thing I knew, Reginald landed square on the top of my head. His claws felt like sword points digging into my scalp. Then I felt him taking the trail down my back. And after that there was just a streak of black and white as Reginald set out for land. When I at last reached the ground, feeling like the last rose, of summer, Miss Purdy and Reginald were sitting on the porch and Reginald was licking his chops, having just dined on the promised cream. As I was about to leave, Miss Purdy called to me and told me she had something for me. At that I che-ered up because I remembered she had told me that I could have anything I wanted. She soon appeared again on the porch. Thank you, so much. Here's your reward for being so brave. With these words she handed me-a cookie! Doreen Taylor. GTS fi A M 'X sa ' t '. 1, . Ig: ' ' . if' V SLEEP vu f p A few days ago Rex Crump walked up to Ken Nipe, who hxasfbe-en suffering with insomnia, and ,told him a sure cure. He told Ken to eat a pint of peanuts and drink two or three glasses of milk before going to bed. Ken did as Rex suggested, and now for the benefit of others who may be afflicted with insomnia, Ken feels it is his duty to report what happened, so,far as-he is able to recall the details. Here is what Ken's report said: ' ' First, let me say Rex was certainly right. I did go to sleep very soon after my retirement. 'Then a fri-end with his head under his arm came along and ,asked mgyif I wanted to buy his feet. I was negotiating with him, when the dragon on I was riding slipped out of his skin and left me Hoating in mid-air. While I was considering hofw I should get down, a bull with two heads peered over the edge of the wall and said he would haul me down if I would first climb up and rig a windlass for him. So as I was sliding down the mountainside the brakeman came in, and I asked him when the train would reach my station. The brakeman politely told me we had passed my station four hundred years ago, and th-en he folded the train up and slipped it into his pocket. At this juncture the clown bounded into the ring and pulled the center pole out of the ground, lifting the tent and all the people in it up, while I stood on the earth below watching myself go out of sight among the clouds above. Then I awoke, and found I had been asleep almost ten minutes. Ken readily recommends this cure to anyone suffering from insomnia. Pauline Dishaw.

The librarian diligently searched the catalogue and came back with: I don't think we have such a book. Flushing a bit, Marie sweetly said: Maybe the title is 'The Scarlet Yacht'? Again th-e librarian looked, with the same results. Then with her pretty fingers she went into her bag, consult-ed a slip of paper and said: Oh, I beg your pardon. I mean the 'Rubaiyat'. One day Mrs. Walters gave Alfred Walters an apple. Here, Alfred, is an apple. Divide it politely with your sister, How shall I divide it politely, Mama? Why always give the larger part to the other person, my child. Alfred thought a moment, then handed the apple to his little sister, saying: Here, Sis, you divide it politely. Not long ago Ruth BZlI1f01'll,S father took her to a ball-game. It was the first time Ruth had ever been to a game, and she wa: 'very interested in the different players. It was plainly seen that the catch-er, with his mask, breast-protector, and big mitt, was the hero in her eyes. t'Which player do you like best, Ruthie? her father iinally asked. The expected answer, expressed in an unexpected way, came without hesitation: I like him best-that big man with the dog face on. Bob Healy was rec-ently vaccinated, and after the operation the doctor prepared to bandage the sore arm, but Bob objected. Put it on the other arm, Doctor. Why, no, said the physician, I want to put the bandage on your sore arm, so the boys at school won't hit you on it. Put it on the other arm, Doctor, repeated Bobg you don't know the fellows at our school. Rex Crump was fixing his automobile. Trouble? asked Mr. Williams, who was standing by. Some, was the laconic answer. What power car is it? Forty horse, came the answer. What seems to be the matter with it? asked Mr. Williams. Well, from the way she acts I should say thirty-nine of the horses were dead.

I'm very glad to see you, said Miss Thornhill, the hotel dietitian, as she met them at the door. By the Way, I saw an article in the 'New York Times' concern- ing several of our classmates which I thought you would like to read. How funny, said Miss Dona, the woman traveler, I thought of the same thing and brought the 'American Daily'. I brought the 'Saturday Evening Post', said Miss MacVey. Will you please read it to us? said Margaret Dona. Yes, I will, said Erma Thornhill. Canton Students Successful. March 9, 19 . Today the famous actress, Rita Murray who recently played in 'Blondie of A.thens,' left for Paris to have her hair prepared bly Janet Wight, a noted Parisian hair dresser, who graduated from Canton Grammar School, in Paris she will also visit Esther Church who owns a fashion store. Why isn't that strange, said Barbara, Rita was such a quiet girl. I'm sorry I interrupted. Will you continue? Professor R. Leonard of psychology at Yale University is married to Margaret Carrie, a nurse from the Adirondack Mountains. Yesterday, James Crary, the United States representative from Northern New York spoke to the 4-H Club. A meeting held by the Northern New York W. C. T. U. had as its guest speaker, Murray Collins, the great temperance leader. Last week while on my travels, I saw a picture on a billboard of the Dean Twins, the Metropolitan Comedians, said Margaret, also, I saw Helen Phalon in Nova Scotia. She 'is the head nun of -the convent and she told me that Charles Burdo is a priest. As long as you are interrupted, said Barbara, I will tell you something very laughable. One day I had been visiting my mother and was speeding through the streets of Canton when a police whistle blew. I stopped. Who do you suppose it was? We don't know, answered the other two. It was Robert Barr. the girls all laughed. That reminds me, said Erma, that I invited Mary Elizabeth Pike. She is one of t-he great social leaders. The door openedg at this moment Mary Elizabeth stepped into the room and was warmly greeted by the girls. We have been discussing our classmates of '32, Have you heard about any? asked Margaret. Why yes, replied Mary Elizabeth, I saw Orpha Gillett a while ago. She is head coach of the girls gymnastics at Columbia. They say she's a wonder, too. 'x Alix .' ' v G'-'Q .fi ,A B r 3 ' Now, said Barbara, let's see what's in the rest of the paper. Certainly, said Erma. At that moment, a small poodle jumped upon her lap. Oh, get down. What a cute little dog, where did you get it? asked Barbara. I bought it from Betty Church, who owns t-he cutest little pet shoppe in Syra- cuse I ever saw, replied Erma. Do you know whom I saw? asked Mary Elizabeth. 'tl was at a small circus outside of Philadelphia. John Ives and his sister Rose, were the leading acrobats. They were really good. I was surprised. I can iharddy believe it, chorused the girls. Oh, yes, how do you like my hat? said Margaret. I bought it of Delilah Robinson. She owns a millin-ery shoppe in Canton. Yes, I've noticed your hat. It is very pretty, said Erma. Shall I finish reading out of the paper? Yes, go ahead, said Margaret. A Alice Priest who painted the portrait of King George of England has accepted the position as professor of art in St. Lawrence University. That's the end of that article, said Erma. Oh, say, Banbara exclaimed, I've read some of the best poems in the 'Satur- day Evening Post.' They were written by Marion Cotter. As I see, she is a poetess. Daisy La1Pierre is a designer of this magazine. I went to an entertainment last night, said Mary Elizabeth, Gertrude Brown played the piano, Mildred Hicks, a radio crooner, sang, and Emily Alexander tap danced. The dance was the main attraction. While talking of music, said Margaret, I saw John Heaton play Gabriel in the grand opera 'Evangeline'. Yes, said Barbara, I took my cousin as the children's nurse maid, Arlene Borden was there. Oh! Girls, exclaimed Mary Elizafbeth, I read in the 'Commercial Advertiser' with Don Barbour as its editor, the announcement of the marriage of Dr. John DePue, the famous doctor against diet and Jeanne Burrowes, former manager of J. J. Ne'wberry's store. Among the visitors and attendants were Harriet Dafoe, the champion tennis player, Pauline Nowlan who owns a bird shoppe. Richard Lofbdell, a New York broker, Garold Stone, radio announcer, he also tells bed-time stories to the kiddies and Harold Russell, lawyer. Rev. Gertrude Hennegan carried on the ceremonies: The bride's gown was made by the seamstress, Glad-ys Arquitt. The groom's suit was made by Charles Fox, tailor. Beatrice Rosenburg, the fiorist of Canton, provided the' fiowersf' What a coincidence, said Margaret. Betty McCartney, the advocate of con- tract bridge is wearing glasses. She got them from the oculist, Edna Wight. At the Delta house the other night, they had a party. It had a famous or- chestra from New York with Walter Heffernon as its leader. They also had a special attraction, Frank Heyer, the lime-light of New York night clubs. Gertrude Ames, the dean of women acted as chaperone, said Erma. Say, I read the funniest thing in the paper the other night, said Mary Elizabeth. What was it? cried the three together. Well, Theodore Bisne-tt is th-e aviator on th-e school line from Morley to Canton, and that Frank Thomas, the Colonel in the U. S. Army has accompanied John Smith, the famous African hunter, to the Congo, replied Mary Elizabeth. Guess who took Mrs. Banford's place upon her resignation? said Barbara. Who? asked the girls. It was Mina Cuglar who is one of the best Algebra teachers I know of. Kenneth Hennegan, the professor of etlinobo-tany at St. Lawrence University, left two days ago in the company of Harwood Schwartz, a scientist, with Richard Todd, an Adirondack guide in search of a plant which is the breeding place of a H, H H was V, 3 cer.ain bug and were held up by a snow storm. They were rescued by a snow plow driver, Harold Burk-e of the township of Clare, said Margaret. Richard McKenny owns a large fruit farm near Lake Ontario. He sells his fruit to Donald Congdon's Fruit Truck Co., Inc. Donald sells the truit throughout the country, said Erma. Can you imagine it? I don't know as I can, said Barbara, 'tbut I can telrl you something equally unbelievable. Just a while ago, Leon Caroline whom Elizabeth Rebert married for money, gave a large sum of money to build a new condensary with William Ince as its head. Rex Rexford was its architect. Dcrothy Whitton, the missionary, accompanied Helen Woods who turned out to be a splendid nurse, to Alaska where there is an epidemic, said Mary Elizabeth. A new school was built at Eddy during the past summer. Among the teachers were William Guyett, protessor, Grace Poole, professor's secretary, Celin Reed, Latin teacher, Margaret Dillabougih, music teacher, and Dorothy Goodbough, public speak- ing teacher, said Erma. I wonder what has 'become of Ida Stiles and Doris Howard? asked Barbara. C-h, Doris Howard is a social settlement worker and Ida Stiles is the state presid-ent of W. C. T. U. in New York State, said Mary Elizabeth. What time is it? asked Barbara. It'.s about ten to five, answered Erma easily. Oh, my goodness! I have to catch the five-thirty train at Washington. Good- bye girls, I had a good time. I hope yzu have good luck with your next book, cried Mary Elizabeth after her. Farewell authoress, chorused the girls. I must leave, too, said Margaret. Both girls rose and bade good-bye to their hostess. GRADUATION SPEAKERS Valedictorian . . ........ ' ....................... Barbara MacVey Salutatorian . . . .... Robert Barr Speaker ..... . . .

The following Saturday the first team played the seventh grade. At the end of the game the score was 1 to 8, in the eighth grade's favor. A few weeks after that, the team played again, this time against the freshmen. We lost to them by a score of 18 to 14. On Wednesday, March 16, 1932 the las-t game of the season was played against the seventh grade. We left this season in hopes that next year there will be many improvements. -Orapha Gillett and Jeanne Burrows. ous .fi gd-x-,.!

All girls must have an average of at l-east eighty percent to be members of the chorus. They meet Wednesday nights from four until four-thirty o'clock. They first sang at the Washington program on February twenty-second. About a month later they sang at the Canton High School prize speaking cont-est. -Margaret Currie and Janet Wight.
