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! Refrain For all the conquests of high school days, Will bring us conquests on future waysg Our class-our loyalty-will serve always Will serve always. -Carzncfa lfVaItr'r.s'.

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.

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.
