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.

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.

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!
