We thought only of how lucky the graduates must feel to be through with High School. Little did we think then of what the termination really meant to them. Now, after all these years, we find ourselves in the same position as they, with a much greater knowledge of how that Senior ( ’lass must have felt. It becomes our solemn duty to bid our Alma Mater good-bye. We alone can tell how grad- uation affects us. and of the various emotions that compel us to write these lines. We feel as the explorer does in leaving friends and associations to seek new lands. The future seems so vast and strong that we are half afraid to tackle it. The goal for which we have striven -the moment for which we have longingly waited, has at last arrived. Now that the time has come, who of us would not like to remain— just a little longer? To say that we are the best class that ever graduated from Cary High would be putting it mildly. We are without past or future parallels. No branch of school activities can be found in which our class has not deeply carved its impressions. It is such impressions that we leave behind that will carve the spirit of the (Mass of ’23, in the minds of those who have grad- uated and those yet to graduate. To Mr. Dry and the faculty we owe a great debt of thanks for their help- ing hand which has firmly guided and restrained us. Although our relations were at times a bit strained, all is now forgotten, and we leave with a deep- set appreciation of what they have done for us. To Mr. Ranks, our (Mass Advisor, we can offer only the best of thoughts and memories. It has been a pleasure to work under his guidance, and we sincerely hope his impressions of us have been as pleasant. Much of our success can be traced directly to him. As a parting toast we hope his future may be crowned with success. Green and White—our time has come. The curfew has sounded. As the sun sinks slowly below the horizon, closing another day and bespeaking our graduation, we can only murmur good-bye ('arv High. May you grow greater and stronger every day, and all your efforts meet with that success that has made the name of our school synonymous with all that is manly, clean and fearless. Adieu!

We’ve tried to live and work unto our motto true: “Be Square” we’ve said in all we think and do, And ever striving in our youthful, eager way We’re helped each other upward, onward every day. We’ve made mistakes, we grant you, by the score, Yet each time we have said, “This same mistake I’ll make no more.” Of knowledge, we have gained a large supply, And more, or else our happy memories would fly, And love for Alma Mater dear would quickly die. Friendship and love and great joy to be For these, Alma Mater, we are grateful to thee. Thou hast given us much from thy store of wealth And rejoiced in thy gifts, we drink to thy health.

And the hearts of their brothers and sisters were bowed down with a burden of grief, for their ways were parted, so that they knew not when they should meet again. And heralds went throughout the land, telling of the loss and asking that new sons and daughters be given unto the Alma Mater. Then did two score and four arise and go thence, and find favour in her sight, for they were goodly to behold; and lo! lamen- tations were changed into rejoicings because of their coming. And these were called Twenty-three, after the year of their graduation. Now this was a place of mingled study and merry-making, and a dangerous place withal for those who were afraid of toil. But Twenty-three did face the monsters of Math and Foreign Languages with a stout heart, and did perform her duties with a zeal that was worthy and becoming unto her. Then soon did she take counsel together, and elect one Helen Elliot for her first president, unto whom was given the leadership for the entire year. And she ruled wisely and well. Now it was the custom at this place for the boys’ societies, by name Clay and Calhoun, to entertain the girls’ societies, called Lowell and Irving, in the Autumn of each year. So the boys of Twenty-three did co-operate with their brothers and send invitations unto all the girls, and to old members of the institution, inviting them to a reception. And there was much feasting and merry-making. And about this time, three boys of the institution were selected for the State Livestock Judging Team, for they did win in contest above all other schools of the State. And these three did win honors in judging livestock at an International Livestock Exposition in the city of Chicago. And one of these same boys was a certain Bernard Tillman, a member of the Class of Twenty-three. And behold! it was soon Christmas-time; so the classes and the several members of each did separate one from the other, and return with rejoicings unto their homes for the holidays. After having tarried there for a short season, they returned for the Spring Term. And Twenty-three did go about her duties in a manner like unto that of the Fall. But after a time she began to desire more social life. And so her girls did join together with their elder sisters and prepare a reception for the boys which was heralded far and wide. And many came and were filled with pleasure. And the time did pass rapidly away until suddenly it was Vacation Time. Then did Twenty-three arise and go into the land of her fathers, where she remained for four months. -4 3 o L- At the end of this time she returned a Sophomore Class, abounding in grace and wisdom. And she assembled herself together and elected one called Marvin Poole as president for the remainder of tin year. And he had a prosperous but uneventful reign. And Twenty-three did take upon her- self the duties that fell to her lot, and she laboured steadily throughout the term save at the times of socials, the Boys' and Girls' receptions, and the Christmas holidays, in order that she might pass the tests, and stand before the Examinations, rather than fall. But her work was interrupted by a serious plague, called influenza, which caused much sickness and suffering. Notwithstanding this, the plague was soon overcome, being utterly wiped out, and Twenty-three completed her tasks by the end of the term. And it so happened that at the time Commencement, prizes were given unto those who had kept the cleanest rooms in the dormitories throughout the year. And three of the four who received them were members of Twenty- three. These were ones known as Azeline Hatcher and Elizabeth Page, of the girls, and Tom Reynolds, of the boys. And since their work for the session was complete, the boys and girls of the class bade each other farewell, and went their ways rejoicing. And when the Vacation Time had come to an end, Twenty-three arose and returned unto the Alma Mater. And after taking counsel she entrusted the leadership for the term in the hands of a certain Willie Adams. And it came to pass that two of the three boys chosen to represent the school in livestock judging were of the class of Twenty-three. And these did win above all others in the State, so they were sent to the town called Macon, in the State of Georgia, to compete in an interstate contest there, at which they won second place. And one of the two won the Amateur Beef Cattle Judging Championship for all the Southeast. And Twenty-three went about her duties, both before and after Christmas with a light heart. And the receptions and socials gave unto her a merry countenance. And in those days her members began to say, one to the other, “Let us entertain the Class of Twenty-two. And it was done, for a mighty recep- tion was prepared for her. Then it was that the time of Commencement drew near, and suddenly it was at hand. And a certain one called Glenn Yarborough, a member of Twenty-three, received the Scholarship Medal for that year, for she had made higher grades than any of the others. And when the Commencement exercises were over, Twenty-three arose and departed hence into the land of her fathers. And when the month of September came again, she was found assembled together at the Alma Mater. And she numbered forty-eight souls, and these were called Seniors. And a new dignity of manner and bearing was mani- fested in all their ways. And after holding council, they gave unto one Calvin Meconnahey, the presidency. And they had to labour with greater m diligence than ever before, for more was required of them. And the boys gave unto the girls a great, joyous reception, but few other socials were granted to make their burden seem lighter. And they continued thus stead- fast in their labours until the time of Christmas. And after the holidays were over and the Spring Term had commenced, they began anew their labours in order that they might receive diplomas which would entitle them to graduation from the school. And in those days the school purchased a moving picture machine, and they did attend the shows that were held upon the fifth night of each week with glad hearts. And they also made merry and rejoiced greatly at the times of the Girls’ Reception, and other socials. During this time the Class of Twenty-four sent invitations unto them say- ing, “Come, feast with us, and make merry.” And they did as they were bid. Now about this time three of the class were chosen to represent the school in the Triangular Debates. And these three were called by names Robert Moore, Ennis Thorne and Cephas Christian. And when the Spring Term was come to a close, the members of Twenty- three received their diplomas, and bravely wen their ways out into the un- known pathways of tin region of Life. And they were exceedingly glad of the preparation they had received during their four years of high school life. Rut it was with much sorrow that their ways were parted from each other, and from those who were left behind at the institution. They are now crossing the threshold of life with resolute hearts, in which the sadness of farewell and hopes for the future are mingled. And they are striving in all things to be worthy of their beloved Alma Matci. Claude Pipkin, Historian of Class ’23.

Instead of employing a teacher for one of the grades in the elementary school, or as an assistant in some one of the high school subjects, who could devote part of her time to public school music, or sight singing, and the rest to the academic subjects, the School Committee, after consult- ing with and getting the approval of the County Superintendent, decided to employ a teacher who had specialized in public school music, to give her whole time to this work. For this position Miss Jeannette Cox, a graduate of the North Carolina College for Women, was chosen from a large list of applicants. Miss Cox had had several years of successful experience in this line, and had done institute and summer school work in different parts of the State. During the past session Miss Cox has given her full time to this work, and instruction has been given regularly in both the high school and the grades. It is the purpose of the school management to continue this department next year, and to give credit for the work done in it along with piano, violin and band music. 5 9 F Music Class “ The man that hath no music in himself, A or is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, Is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils; The motions of his spirit are dull as night, A nd his affections dark as Erebus: Let no such man be trusted.” —Shakespeare. -A go f-- Band ' f HE first ( ’ary Band was organized in the Fall of 1921. Band music was then a new thing in the High Schools of North Carolina, and Cary was the first school in this part of North Carolina to have one. From its beginning with ten pieces it has steadily grown to the present size of over thirty members, including the violins, which we intend to convert into an orchestra in the near future. In addition to furnishing music on special occasions, the band has also given concerts at neighboring schools and public gather- ings. While we have been handicapped in the past by the lack of proper instru- ments, we are hoping that in the near future the school will be able to buy some instruments of the kind needed, and will rent them to some of the students. We expect to have one of the finest High School Bands in the South by the end of this term. Vocational Agriculture Endeavoring to meet the needs for practical education, Cary High School was one of the first in the Stale to establish a department of agricul- ture. The department has grown rapidly. During the past year over sixty students were enrolled, requiring the services of three teachers. Training is given during the entire four years of high school, in the following courses: Crops and Soils, Animal Husbandry, Horticulture and Farm Mechanics, and Rural Engineering. A shop has been erected on the Campus, where practical farm shop work is given in the use of tools and the construction and repair of farm machinery and conveniences. Each student taking the agricultural course is required to carry on a project at his home farm. Home Economics Class The Home Economics Course is organized to cover two years of work, and is designed for eighth and ninth grade students. One-half of each year is de- voted to foods, and one-half to textiles and clothing, two double periods daily being spent in the laboratory on actual practical problems of text book study and recitation. One unit of credit is given for each year’s work. a Teachers Traininq ( lass ' HE Slate Normal Training Class for Teachers was organized at Cary in September. Cary was fortunate to se- cure one of the four organized in the State, especially since this is a progressive step not previously undertaken in North Caro- lina. The purpose of (his training is to give a more thorough preparation for teaching than could be otherwise secured for those who are denied the College Training Course. The course includes reviews and summaries of the subject matter of Seventh Grade English, History, Geography and Arithmetic and methods of teaching. A library of two hundred volumes for reference, maps, globes, typewriter, special desks and supplies are furnished by the county, while the instructor’s salary is drawn from the State appropriation. 9 9 }c- Last Will and Testament of Class of 1923 Office of Chsite, ) County of Wake (in the morning) Publication Day State of Inqcuous Desuetude To Ye Who are Crazy or Otherwise Mentally Unbalanced: the Graduating Class of 1923, in full possession of sound mind and foolish looking bodies, realize that the years spent at Cary High School are ever to be remembered as the (happiest)? we have known. We do hereby make and declare and publish this our last Will and Testament in the year of our Lord 1923, on the 20th day of April, in the one hundred and forty-seventh year of the sovereignty and independence of the United States of America. SECTION ONE Subject to the State laws of North Carolina concerning the execution of wills, we hereby will and bequeath to our heirs and friends the following: Article I. To our mothers and fathers we leave a heart full of gratitude for sacrifices made in order for us to attend this seat of learning. Article II. To Professor Dry we will a vote of thanks for his faithul efforts to overcome our ignorance; also we leave him a more intelligent geometry class that will know the difference between a circle and a rhomboid. Article III. To the town of Cary we leave our sincere appreciation for the good times we have enjoyed while in school here, and also for the interest taken in our school. Article IV. To each and every member of the Betterment Association we leave a vote of thanks for the help, interest, and good times we have enjoyed through them. Article V. We, the Class of 1923, do hereby leave to all future Junior classes forty times as many privileges as we have enjoyed here. SECTION TWO. Article I. To Miss Wofford we leave a long, successful political career and in the end a happy marriage with a future President of the United States. We think this will be her very highest ambition. Article II. To Professor T. A. Banks we will a quiet class of more intelli- gent, less absent-minded, less self-dependent and more capable young Web- sters and Suffragettes to whom he is to teach English. Article III. To Professor Jesse Roller we leave a more angelic bunch of boys for the future year. We sincerely hope that he will not be as hard on them as he has been on us; we also hope that he will not have to refer to them as a bunch of young mules. We leave a cement sidewalk for the right hand side of Academy Avenue down to a certain house so Mr. Roller won’t get his dainty feet wet in visiting said house in the future. Article IV. To Messrs. Coggin and Meekins we leave a more intelligent bunch of clodhoppers who do not think a mule has horns, and who will be more attentive while said teachers are trying to explain the difference be- tween a two-horse plow and a moving picture show. Article V. To Miss Cox we leave the exclusive right to use Garber-Davis Jazz Orchestra at her future (wedding)? She can also use the same orchestra to help her in teaching public school music in the mountains of Tennessee. If she comes back to this school next year, she will have full control of all music played in the dining-room. May there be many records entitled, “Kiss Mama, Kiss Papa.” Article VI. To Miss Respess we leave a home in Apex so she will not have to visit that city so much; Miss Williams is also to live with her. Article VII. To Mrs. Dry we will a long life and happiness, and may the future dormitory boys and girls enjoy such good eats as we have had this year. Article VIII. To Miss Nichols we will a French One class which is com- posed of students who have Cephas Christian’s great intellectual ability to master French. Article IX. To Director Prince, master musician, we will a band of tooters who will be able to toot without a tutor. We also hope that his long, silky hair will grow down to his shoulders. SECTION THREE Article I. To the Junior Class we leave our troubles. Article II. To the Sophomores we have a large bunch of green Freshmen SECTION FOUR Hoping we make no mistakes in the following bequests: Article I. J. D. Gooch will keep permanently the name of “Little Girl” applied to him by Mr. Coggin. Cephas Christian’s appetite to Conway Elliot. Calvin Meconnahey leaves a sorrel pony to Meredith Swain, so she can ride over the college exams. Mary Lee Starling leaves her “An-gelic ways” to Julia Griffin. Floyd Buffaloe’s tremendous voice to “P. G.” John- son.” Edith Clements and Edwin Dowell are to receive Mary Ford’s and Ed. Nichols’ ability to make love on Physics class. Helen Rhodes leaves a large supply of paint, powder, and lipstick to Katy Buflfaloe. Cephas Christian’s beauty to Waldron Shearon, so Waldron cjb make a hit in the big town of Cary. James Satterwhite is to receive an entire Beauty Shop, with a complete line of beauty lotions. James Hunter will receive Curtis Muse’s ability to cut up on class. (Signed) LeUoy Gay. Witnessed on this 20th day of April by Calvin Meconnahey, Cephas N. Christian, Glenn Yarborough. 6 8 b' Class Prophecy IT’S a far cry from Cary to Rhodesia, Africa, that desolated, lonesome, roof- of-the-world. Rut here I am, a man of thirty-five, living alone, except for the natives, with the nearest white man fifty miles away, and he is an ignorant old sot at that. Rich! oh yes, my mines have made me a multi-millionaire. But God! what a life I have led, what a life I am leading! No one to love, no friends even; I have even lost sight of every last one of my schoolmates. Schoolmates! Ah, if I could only see and talk with some of those students I went to Cary with, so long ago. How I enjoyed those days, the work, the sport, the fellowship; yes, that’s the thing that counts, fellowship! And here am I, a multi-millionaire, buried alive in a mining camp. Yes; I am down and out of it all—out of the running at thirty-five! Great shades of Bill Shakespeare! what are you talking about, Mack? You don’t have to stay in this hole. Take your money and get out! By the old Harry! I know what I’ll do; I’ll hunt up all the members of my grad- uating class, and we’ll have a glorious reunion with this useless money of mine! How like a dream it seems! To think that I am actually living in Cary again. And that reunion; what a time we had! The day I left my mines in Rhodesia, a missionary expedition came through headed by the Rev. Dr. David Elijah Bobbitt, who had as his co-workers Victor Sorrell, who had given up athletics for the spreading of the Gospel, and Herbert Allen, whose curly acquaintance with the negroes of the South made of him an ideal African Missionary. Rev. Bobbitt told us that Cephas Christian had run out of money before he had a chance to set up his Dentist Office, so had undertaken to sell false teeth to the natives, and that Clelon Allen and Ernest Pope both died five years after getting married in 1924, leaving their families well provided for. Floyd BufTaloe and Bernard Tillman were officers on board the tramp steamer which took me to Cairo, Egypt, whence I took a liner for Philadelphia. They said they were only doing that work for a pastime, having made a killing in the New York stock market a few years before. They gave up their jobsj and came along with me, when they heard about the proposed reunion. After boarding the liner, we found among a party of globe trotters five of our former classmates, Meredith Swain, Doc. Sorrell, Mary Ford, Ed. Nichols and Tom Reynolds. They were delighted with the idea of a class reunion. On landing at the new municipal wharf, just below the Delaware River Bridge, an imposing structure the final work of which was done by Dacosta Stephenson (the original contractor having died before the bridge was finished), we were greeted by Customs Inspector, David Pleasants and his assistants, Eula Mae Baskin and Maria Broughton. I left my friends and made my way along the elevated sidewalk to the Eaton-Page- Walton Hotel, on the site of the old home for feeble cats and dogs, and other stray animals, owned by Dorothy Smith and Sybil Brady, at Broad and Walnut streets. My baggage was taken in hand by the head bell boy, Samuel Robert Moore, Jr., who had risen to that position through sheer hard work. At dinner A 6 9 pi- Mr. Patrick Dowd Gray sat at my table. He informed me that he was then president of a well known Trust Company owned by Lula Lee Little andNovvie Smith, two very successful business women (still unmarried). That was an excellent dinner! What more could you expect with LeRoy, Gay as chief cook and bottle washer. That evening we went to Keith’s Theater where we saw, much to our surprise, our old classmate, Mary Lee Starling, dancing in the chorus of Pleasants-Pipkin Musical Comedy Hits. I had to pass the city jail on my way to the station. I happened to look up at one of the windows, and who did 1 see but Ennis Thorne. I asked the poor boy how he happened to this bad fortune. He told me that he had been caught vio- lating the game law (catching “ bass’ ’ out of season). I also saw Cleo Matthews Mildred Clifton, Virginia Cat hell, Ruth Daniel and Pansie Little. After taking, their successful course in the Normal Training Class at Cary, they had succeeded in getting a position teaching the old maids and bachelors. The next day I was greatly surprised to hear that a circus was in town called, “The Hardy-Bailey Stupendous Spectacular Eight Ring Circus and Wild West Show.” Craving more amusement than anything had been able to afford me before, I hunted up my side-kick, Pat Gray, and we went to be taken in at the circus. On the way to the grounds we saw Irma Cox selling balloons. She was doing that sort of work in order to get material for a novel she was going to write’ While we were yet some distance from the grounds we could see several mammoth, signs on which we saw some familiar names, “Don’t Miss Stones’Side Show!” “Eat Hatcher’s Cotton Candy, It’s Great!” On entering the grounds we were pressed into buying the latest eating fad—hot- dogs—a la mode—by three girls, whom we recognized as Margaret L. Smith, Valley Smith and Helen Rhodes. They were doing a howling business. As we left them, we encountered what we took to be a kindergarten on a rampage, but we soon found out that it was only our old friend Franks bringing his family home from the circus. Franks was in charge of the traffic in the Broad Street Subway at that time. It was getting rather late, so Gray and I parted, he hailing a taxicab, while I walked to my hotel. Upon looking over the register at the hotel, I saw the name of Glenn Yarborough. Immediately my heart went pit-a-pat. I sent the bell boy up with my card, requesting her honor at dinner that evening. She accepted, and great was the time we had. That night after we had the class reunion, Glenn and I prepared a surprise for them. David Bobbitt had returned and was present. He married us, and every- body celebrated with a huge reception. It is needless to say that we lived happily ever afterwards. C. M., “ Class Prophet.” •d7op- Jokes The sweet young thing was being shown through the Baldwin Locomotive Works. “What is that thing?” she asked. “That is an engine boiler,” answered the guide. She was an up-to-date young lady, and at once became interested. “And why do they boil engines?” she inquired. “To make them tender,” replied the guide. MEAN MAN “Mighty mean man I’s wukin’ fer.” “Wat’s de mattah?” “Took de laigs off de w’eel barruh so’s I kain’t set it down an’ rest.” There once was a young lady from Guam Who said, “While the ocean is calm I’ll plunge in for a lark!” But she met with a shark! We’ll now sing the twenty-eighth psalm. A Michigan mis? struggled three hours before she landed a fish. We know a girl who struggled three years, and she hasn’t got him yet. ■ Glenn—“Are you sure your arm is where it belongs?” Mack—“Why—er—it’s not even touching you.” Glenn—“I know it.” WISE Mother—“Richard writes that he has been burning the midnight oil every night this week.” Father—“Yes; he’ll have the bus all worn out if In doesn’t watch out.” IGNORANCE IS BLISS. A tramp rang a doctor’s door bell and asked the pretty lady who answered if she would be so kind as to ask the doctor if he had a pair of old trousers he would give away. “I’m the doctor.” she said, and the tramp nearly fainted. NATURALLY. “Vee haf a new baby goil at our house,” said the happy male parent. “Veil, well,” said the listener, “and wot did you call her?” “Vee call her ‘Rose.’” “After ven did you name her dat?” “After she was born.” J 71 fc- Two health enthusiasts were discussing methods, when suddenly one of them said, “You still take your morning hath, I suppose? ' “Never miss it, my hoy,” said the other. “Sometimes I take it hot, some- times cold, and when I am in a rush I take it for granted.” Lives of editors remind us We can reach the same high station And by phrases injudicious Risk our chance of graduation. LOOK OUT, UNCLE HENRY. Franks—“Please give me just one kiss.” Kate—“I can’t.” Franks—“Why?” Kate—“It’s Lent.” Franks—“Will you, when you get it back?” We always laugh at teacher’s jokes No matter what they he; Not because they’re funny, But because it’s policy. THE TRAGEDY OF IT ALL. He sits apart; the dance goes on; He looks with saddened gaze upon the merry throng; And why? Because he’s betrayed by the one he trusted— 11 is suspender button’s busted. ? 21 GIRLS' DORMITORY AND THEN IT RAINED. Scone—An old Office Room. The Time—Just before noon. Characters—Rastus, the office boy, and his employer. (Enter Rastus, three hours late for work and swathed up in bandages.) Boss (throwing up his hands)—“Rastus, what in the world is the matter with you; you look like a mummy.” Rastus (in a painful, subdued voice)—“Well, Boss, I'll tell you in poetry. It was this way: Dis mo’nin’ I rose From sweet repose, Put on my clothes, Down the street I goes, Meets one of my foes By the name of Mose, Who runs wild wid de hose. And I, bellicose, Jumped on his toes— ’Twas done on purpose, As you may suppose. A quarrel arose, He struck out some blows Which I couldn’t oppose, So down I goes Wid a busted nose, From which the blood don’ rose, In the gutter, you knows, Where de water flows. Den home I goes To dream of my woes And my bloody nose. Dat’s all I knows, And what I knows I knows I knows. , Mr. Roller—“Edwin, how often do you bathe?” Dowell—“Whenever I think I need one.” Mr. Roller—“You’ll have to quit such shallow thinking if you stay here.” CHRISTIAN’S LAMENT. I’m taking my exams as I find them, I hope that I find them all right; I remember the last time I took them, My neighbor kept his out of sight. I’m a safe-cracker,” said the Uneeda Biscuit, as it was placed in the moisture proof package. OOH, DEATH. Stevenson (trying to cut a steak)—“Say, waiter, how was this steak cooked?” Waiter—“Smothered in onions, sir.” Stevenson—“Well, it died hard.” “Are you Hungary?’’ “ Yes, Siam.” “Den Russia to the table and I’ll Piji.” “All right; Sweden my coffee and Denmark my bill.” v He knelt at her feet. He gazed up into her averted face searchingly, but be- yond a silent, suppressed biting of her lip, she betrayed no flicker of emotion. As his gaze fell, a shadow of pain crossed her features, her eyes closed, her lips twitched as if controlling an intense desire to speak to the man at her feet. His hands moved convulsively; his long, glossy black hair fell down in disarray. She leaned over suddenly, softly, and hysterically laughed. “At last,” he said. “Yes,” she answered, “it was a tight squeeze, wasn’t it? I’ll buy this pair, and you may wrap up my old shoes.” .4 Take big eyes and ruby lips, Soft felt hat so dapper, Hair that’s bobbed and coyly curled, There you have a flapper. ,4 v 4 “Far down below lies Elizabeth Batts, She mistook a skunk for a pussy cat.” ,4 ,4 Sign in front of a florist shop in Salisbury, N.

A HARD CHARACTER. “You don’t dissipate, do you?” asked the physician sternly of the little worried- looking man, who was about to take an examination for life insurance. “You’re not a fast liver or anything of that sort, are you?” The little man hesitated a moment, looked a bit frightened and then piped out: “Well, I sometimes chew a little gum.” v S HOW FAR? Father (to co-ed, after examining expense account)—“Do you think silk stock- ings absolutely necessary?’ ’ Valley Smith -“Certainly, up to a certain point.” A watch may have no gender, But you really can’t efface The fact that nearly always There’s a woman in the case. V DARK AGES. When Rastus Johnsing’s son arrived He looked just like his poppy; In fact, the doctah done declared He was a carbon copy. I woke to look upon a face, Silent, white and cold; O friend, the agony I felt Can never half be told. We’d lived together but a year; Too soon, it seemed, to see Those gentle hands, outstretched and still, That toiled so hard for me. My waking thoughts had been of one Who now to sleep had dropped ’Twas hard to realize, O friend, My Ingersoll had stopped. 4 7 7 fc- Horton Studio “Portraits” X Pictures of children a Specialty Official Photographer for “Chsite” 504 Masonic Temple Building : : : : Raleigh, N.
