ner. Who wouldn't know that face in a thousand? Dick had been traveling around the world as leader of the U. S. National Orchestra. I asked him whether he had been married or not. Thank the Lord noJ Haven't time to bother with women,11 and with that he hurried on. In Glendive one beautiful white mansion attracted my attention and I visited there. The women who met me at the door seemed familiar but I could not quite place her until she told me her name was Mrs. Roscoe Harpster. Then I knew it was Margaret Hardy to whom I was talking. Any Children? I asked. Heavens, yes: don't you hear them yelling? They are probably throwing mud at Della Johnston1s children next door. You know that Della is married again. This is her fifth husband and he was a widower with six children. She now has quite a few children to ckre for. In Dillon I stopped at a boarding house. Two of my old school mates were boarding there. They were teaching school in Dillon. Georgia Griffin was teach- ing Science in High School, and Mary Scruggs was a very successful teacher in the primary department. I could not help talking to these people and I learned that Mrs. Schneider, formerly Alberta Pangburn, with Sherrill was in China converting the heathen and doing missionary work. I inquired where Ina May was and discovered that she alone had stuck to Ekalaka. She and Ted with their four children were living on a ranch several miles out of town, and that Ina May was submitting some very good journalistic work to high class magazines Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Cunningham were living on a ranch in North Dakota. Mrs. Cunning- ham was formerly Blanche Davis. That night I thought of a.ll the members of the class of thirty and their situations and decided that even though I had a blind mother-in-law to take care of, didn't I have six darling children waiting for me when I got home?

S2YIGR CLASS PQE1I By Richard Tooke We the Seniors of 1930 Linger as re close the door Of our High School where re’ve labored Where we’ve gained our endless lore. Through the years so‘ bleak and barren H ve we struggled toward our goal Fearless, braving all obstructions Building character, mind anc soul. Through the four years we’ve been learning Hany friends like us are through And each tine we’ve witnessed their passing We’ve longed to be among those few. Yaw. that we are gallant Seniors. Like many classes in the past We tearfully loiter at the parting Lest Friendships formed can never last. With diplomas v e fondly hasten Yet e lingor r.t the door Then a triumphant group of Seniors Part cs in the days of yore.
