Va ., p-X . x-zer DEDICATION In appreciation of the high standards she has always demanded of her students and of the fairness she has always shown us, we wish to dedicate the 1950 Milestone to Miss Augusta Brandriff Smi'th Page Three FOREWORD Because We have so thoroughly enjoyed the last four years of our lives, the years we spent, among other ways, in making friends and establishing a basis for our future, we want those years to be forever remembered and loved. This book is a record of those years as we knew them; our classmates, teachers, organizations, and happy occasions are all set down on the following pages and Will serve as constant reminders of the years we never want to lose from sight. In the hands of a mischievous group from the world of fantasy, with which you are no doubt familiar, we have placed the responsibility of guiding you through the story that you took part in. and which we call The Best Years of Our Lives.

Page Forty-m'ne THE MILESTONE The Milestone Board has continuously endeavored, in spite of lack of much-needed experience. to present to its readers a book which is representative of all the activities and all the students who take such important parts in our lives here at CPS. Through meetings which were often marked by a great deal of cross-discussiori, confusion, and deadlocks, but also much spirit and determination, we have achieved the finished product. It is this product which we present to you as your book, and which we hope is a true picture of school life and experiences as found at C.P.S. THE STUDENT COUNCIL The job of writing an article telling of the Student Councills events of the year is a diflicult one. To begin at the beginning, this year we attempted. as every Student Council has, to enforce both old and new rules and to make it quite clear that the Council is extremely necessary to make a school l'tick . The honor study hall remained the same, with the exception of a few rules. such as making the girls with two points stay in supervised study hall until four o'clock for a tworweek period. Another innovation. although it was in operation a few years previously, was that of a Junior Student Council, This council is run exactly as that of the upper school, with representatives from the fifth through the eighth grades. A president, Carol Donnelly, was selected from the eighth grade and a secretary, Mary Todd, fmm the seventh, and the repre- sentatives frOm the eighth grade were included in the upper school council meeting. One act of Which we are exceptionally proud is our help in supporting a war orphan, a little girl named Ricka Hoppenbrouwers of Czechoslovakia, who is ten years old. Our money for the support of this girl was acquired through the tainng of two UAC.-Miami football tickets and the sponsoring of the annual skating party. This is a full account of our activities, and as we lay our pen down to test we hope that we have the school's approval of them. THE STEPPING STONE We, the stall of the Stepping Stone, C.P.S.'s school newspaper, have tried to express all news and facts of interest to the best of our ability. We have enjoyed our work on the paper to a degree beyond our imaginations, and we hope you have enjoyed the paper just as much, This year we have learned from our job that to put forth a good paper. or anything else, requires cooperation We hope this spirit of cooperation among the staff has shOWn itself throughout our paper, We also hope that the paper has promoted a more friendly feeling throughout the school and brought both faculty and students more close together. At least, this was our purpose. So, in looking back, we, the staff, deem it an honor to have served a paper such as the Stepping Stone, whose purpose is to promote a feeling of friendship. Page Fifty THE HONORARY ATHLETIC CLUB This year, the Honorary Athletic Club, commonly known as the uH.A.C.s , is in its third year of operation. The H.A.Cls were originated by Miss Martha W. Carey, Director of Physical Education, and have thrived under her adept supervision. One change introduced by the club concerns the athletic letter which distinguishes members of the H.A.C.s. It has been improved and now is a larger blue D trimmed in gold. For our activities, we plan to have in May an AlumnaeeHlAC. game followed by a minstrel show staged by the H.A.C.s. We hope this show, Which is the second of its kind given by the club, will become a tradition in the schools The H.A.C.s are looking forward to Tap Day, when new members Will be chosen frOm the girls who have contributed outstandingly to school athletics during the year. We will be proud and glad to welcome many new members. THE DRAMATIC CLUB This year the Dramatic Club gave a very successful rendition of The Barretts as its major production. The cast, parents and friends all cooperated by generously lending furniture and costumes. Plans are now being discussed for two onevact plays to be given later in the spring, and the Dramatic Club and the Student Council are making tentative plans to combine forces to sponsor a school dance to be given in March. THE GLEE CLUB The Glee Club can always be heard singing from the studio on the third floor every Monday and Wednesday afternoon It is here that we practiced for the numerous recitals that We gave during the year, while Miss Jett, our wonderful director; Charlene Simons, the president; and Grace Milbutn, vice- president. tried quite to no avail to keep peace. Also an important hgure, but often overlooked in the club's success, is Judy Shepard, who willingly gives her time and patience to accompany the Glee Club at the piano. Judy will always be remembered for playing one verse of the school song and for attracting a group around the piano after the bell rang. to hear another popular number. She has done a good job and deserves a lot of credit. The Glee Club is a happy combination of both fun and work. In the fall, the club furnished entertainment for the annual Silver Tea, and soon after that went to work to turn out a very effective Christmas program with which we entertained the school and the Widows' and Old Menis Home. These programs were fun to do and seemed to be enjoyed by all. At this very moment a spring show is being planned, and is to consist of a musical review of songs from great Broadway hits such as Show Boat , Carousel , and i'South Pacihc . With this in store, we have had a busy and wonderful year. Page Fifty-one SCHOOL CALENDAR 1949-1950 FUN EVERY MINUTE!

Cooperative story by the First Grade MY FIRST DOG by SALLY HARRISON, Grade 3 I wanted a dog so very much that I wished and wished, but I never got one. I gave up wishing and never wished much more. Boots, the dog next door, was cute, but I wanted a dog of my own. Even on Christmas Santa diant give me one. Even on my birthday I diant get one. But one Valentine morning on my pillow in a basket was a little puppy. I carried it in my Mommy and Dads room and said, Look what I have. I was so surprised. I shouldn't have given up wishing. I could have gotten it before, I guess. PRIMARY COMPOSITION PRIZE FOG by WYNNE PAFFARD, Grade 4 Used to see the spinning mill, Standing high upon the hill, Now the fog has passed the sill, Cannot see the spinning mill. JAMES P. CHIPMUNK by SUSAN CLANCEY, Grade 5 The gentleman I am going to mention is very shy. His name is James P. Chipmunk. I am sure you have heard of him. He and his uncle, Mr. John D. Otter. were. walking by the stream one day. James was worried because his sister knew how to swim. His uncle told him not to worry. Still James was restless and worried, and too, a little jealous. He wondered what it was like to go in swimming. Then he had an idea. He went home and got a pair of shorts. When he got to the diving board, he started to shake. Finally he went in. It was cold, but nice, He realized how much better it was to go in swimming than to be jealous.

It bridges the gap of ignorance. The purpose of some books is not so much teaching you something as arousing your interest. Of course, many books are not bridges. They wander purposelessly, getting nowhere and getting you nowhere. Whether books are long or short, fascinating or dull, they can contain valuable information in almost any subject. Only think of how modern libraries can transport you to any land of thought! One consideration must be made, however. You must completely yield yourself to your book, and try to get all you can from it. Then you Will be transported over the bridge into realms of oblivious happiness. INTERMEDIATE PROSE - SECOND PRIZE WINGS FOR OUR SOULS by CAMILLA MCDOWELL, Grade 6 A minister. Mr. Hugh Bean Evans, spoke to us at a convocation this morning, January 9th. He talked about UWings for Our Souls . It was a very good way to begin the new year. . One of the things which is a T'Wing is A Sense of Humor. If you have the ability to see yourself as others see you, you are well on your way to the first Hwing . Another nWingll is Patience, something which very few people have a lot of, It helps in school; and When you graduate, in getting a job. If more people had patience, the world would be a better place in which to live. The third Wing is Truth. The greatest men were truthful, and that is one of the main reasons they became great. You will hardly ever get into trouble if you tell the truth, for everyone will believe you if you have that reputation. The fourth HWing is Hope. No one can live without hope. It is almost the greatest Hwing . Hope can bring an uplift to any soul, and most often does, if people have faith, too. Faith! That is the last Wing'H Without faith, a sense of humor does no good, patience is turned to indifference, truth to martyrdom, and hope becomes ironical. If you have faith you will always have one of the other 'iWings . You will never have all of the llWings , but if you have a few, you are happy and content. Page Fifry-er'ght INTERMEDIATE PROSE - HONORABLE MENTION ICE. SLEET, AND ROBINS by CHARLENE DISERENS, Grade 8 The morning before the ice storm was quite warm and balmy. The birds were singing. and there were a few robins and blue-jays chirping and fighting on the lawn. It was a little cloudy and slightly damp. In short, it was a perfect spring day. About an hour after I had arisen, I turned on the radio for the weather report. To my amazement it said the temperature, which was standing at sixty- three, would drop sharply during the day, and that there would be sleet and freezing rain during the night. I did not believe it, but almost hoped for the bad weather in store. About lunch time I looked at the temperature which had dropped about ten degrees. Still I did not believe we would have any more winter. The birds still were singing, Even the flowers had pushed their green sprouts through the cold brown earth. During the afternoon the temperature dropped rapidly. Toward evening a chill wind began blowing. I went to bed that night lulled by the Hsong of the wind . At about one A.M. I awakened with a start. I heard a rapping on my window, but it was only the wind and the rain. The next morning I looked out of my window upon a cold, silver world. I threw out bread to the birds that sat dejectedly in the trees. The evergreens were weighted to the ground with their burdens of ice and sleet. Branches, which played so merrily in yesterdayls warm breezes, were twisted and broken Even the trolley cars could not run. They had to be pulled up the hills. The cold weather. which I welcomed so, caused misery and accidents to many. That evening a warm rain fell and the trees dropped their burdens. The next morning all the ice had melted. The birds were singing. One would not believe we had had an ice storm except for the broken branches and wires, the loss of lives, and the threat of a Hood.

UPPER SCHOOL SHORT STORY - FIRST PRIZE AN UNBELIEVABLE ADVENTURE OF ULYSSES by NANCY BOYER, Grade 12 this is a story written for small cbildrenj One day when Ulysses and his men were sailing far out from land, he saw something strange ahead of the ship in the waters At first he was a little frightened that it might be a sea monster or some such dreadful thing, but when the ship got close to it, he saw that it was a huge, huge pink bubble, He was very curious as t0 what was in it: so he sailed the ship around it until he came to a door that was large enough to sail a ship through. He called out and the door opened; so in went the ship. Once they were inside, Ulysses saw that there was a regular community there. The only odd thing about this community was that everything was pink like the outside bubble, and everything was rounded: even the people were pink and rounded! The houses were round; the flowers were all pink: the dogs and cats and all the other animals were pink: even the grass and the trees were pink! Because of the pink bubble. the whole community was covered with a pink light. There was a small group of people waiting to greet Ulysses and his men when they got off the ship. Ulysses walked up to the man who seemed to be the leader of the group, and asked him, HWhat land is this? This is Bumgubble Land. and I am Blowa, king of the land. Who are you, and what are you doing here? Ulysses explained how they happened to come upon their country by seeing their huge pink bubble. Blowa was honored to have them on his island, as no White man had ever been on the island before; so he invited Ulysses and his men to stay and visit a while. Ulysses was very much interested in some. of the odd things as he was shown around the island by King Blowa. He especially marveled at the pink dogs and cats and trees. While he was looking at the trees, he noticed that there were some people doing what looked like tapping the trees, but even the juice they were getting from the trees was pink! i'What is that juice those people are getting from the tree-trunks? Why, even that juice is PINK! What do they do with it? Ulysses asked of Blowa. 'iWe use that sap to make our bubble gum. HWhat is bubble gum? I never heard of a thing like that either. Ulysses wondered about this because in those days there wasn't any gum of any kind. UYou mean to say you don't know what bubble gum isI Why u the people here practically live on it. He was amazed at Ulysses! I'll tell you how We get it. We take that sap from the trees and boil it until it becomes rubbery; then we chill it and cut it up and chew it. We have learned to make bubbles with it: that's why We call it bubble gum. Here, try some. Ulysses took the piece of gum and tried chewing it. At first, it seemed strange, but the more he chewed it, the more he liked it. So Ulysses and his men stayed on the strange island for a few days, getting their fill of bubble gum. Then, when they were ready to leave, Ulysses presented Page Sixry-rbree King Blowa with a large chest full of trinkets in return for their enjoyable stay on the island. Then King Blowa came up to Ulysses with a basket full of seeds and said, HWe have enjoyed having you on our island, and I want to give you some seeds from our gum trees to take back to your people. I hope they get as much enjoyment from the gum as my people have. Good-bye. So Ulysses boarded his ship and sailed out the opening. When they were a little way out from the pink bubble. Ulysses blew his horn in a salute to the Bumgubble people; and as he did that, the whole bubble seemed to lift off the water and hoat through the sky on the heavy wind that had come up. While Ulysses was busy watching the bubble, he didn't notice that the wind had picked up the basket which held the seeds and had blown it into the water. So all the evidence of Ulysses' strange encounter was gone, until, hundreds of years later, chicle trees were discovered. UPPER SCHOOL SHORT STORY v SECOND PRIZE A DINNER WITH SIR ROGER DE COVERLEY by PATSY GEIGER, Grade 11 The other day my good friend Sir Roger de Coverley invited me to his country estate to dinner. Naturally my great admiration for this amiable country squire led me to anticipate the dinner with great pleasure. At the appointed hour I arrived dressed in my finest, for it is well known that Sir Roger expects his guests to be properly dressed for all etcasions and to be prompt. All the other guests had. I am sure, been anticipating this dinner with as much pleasure as I, for excellent as well as enjoyable reasons Our host greeted each one cordially, and soon dinner was announced. We filed into the dining-room and seated ourselves at Sir RogerIs perfectly set table. Throughout the meal we were delightfully entertained by a small band of musicians playing lovely airs and altogether charming pieces. Of course, the music was not our sole entertainment. Sir Roger himself provided it most decidedly by his mere talking. He told many quaint and amusing stories. tmany of which we had often heard before but which were, nonetheless, still as mirth- provoking as at the first telling because of Sir Roget's inimitable style of speaking . But what I remember particularly of that evening, over and above even the most excellent roast of beef, was Sir Rogerys treatment of a poor. frightened. new table-boy. It seems that this young fellow was attending the table at a large dinner for the first time; consequently, he was quite nervous. Because of his nervousness he spilled an entire bowl of soup over the carpet Instead of the expected reprimand, Sir Roger called the trembling boy to him and whispered something in his ear. At that the boy began beaming from ear to ear and continued with his duties with never another slips And, try as we would, Sir Roger refused to disclose his secret with the boy. I went home from that dinner feeling contented, satisfied, and happy. I went home, too, resolving to try a little more kindness toward others as the good Sir Roger had. But, sometimes I still wonder, IiWhat could Sir Roger have said to the boy?

Truth is indeed an old man. but he is strong and vigorous for his age. Which one of you daughters shall I give him to be his Wife? Love and Honor, the two eldest, remained silent.

UPPER SCHOOL ESSAY-FIRST PRIZE THE PEACE OF CHILDHOOD by ELIZABETH SAGMASTER, Grade 11 Peace is the Warm sun creeping across a room, the buzz of a fly, the rustle of a windoweshade. It is the pungent odor of brown leaves decaying on the trees; the stiff, beautiful, cold ice on the fit; and the drip, drip of cool water on the green moss of the creek. Peace is the squish of soft mud through your fingers, the tickle of green grass on your feet, the damp sand in your sneakers. It is the warmth of a bon- fire, the taste of charcoal black marshmallows, and the shelter of your bed in a rainstorm. Peace is the silence under the stars, the wet nose of a faithful puppy, the trusting and simple love for God. Peace, untouched by fear, prejudice or insecurity 5 such is the peace of Childhood. Page Sixty-ifue UPPER SCHOOL ESSAYrSECOND PRIZE FIREPLACES by CAROL PETERSON, Grade 10 Have you ever thought what the fireplace has meant to people in all walks of life through the ages? This thought came to me one cold dreary evening as I sat watching the tongues of flame licking the huge logs in our fireplace. A feeling of warmth, contentment. and security swept over me, even though the wind was howling drearily outsider My brother sprawled on the hearth rug, reading a comic book and unconsciously scratching the ear of his dog. who stretched beside him. Mother was curled up with a book. My father was in his favorite chair smoking his pipe and absorbed in his book. No one was watching the fire as I was. but its presence added to the contentment of everyone in the family. Fireplaces have been used through the ages. their uses changing with the needs of those who had themi In the Early Stone Age the cave man, after accidentally learning that roast meat was better tasting than raw meat, built tires to cook by. He gradually learned that if stones were piled up in a certain way the fire burned better, That must have been the beginning of the fireplace. After people learned to build houses, the center of the home was the fire- place, used for heating and cooking. We read about hearths being used in the Middle Ages. Minstrels often told of their adventures to those gathered around the fireplace. An early English custom was to bring in a huge log with great ceremony and to place it on the hearth at the center of the fire. This, we know, was the YuIe-log. The colonists in this country used the nreplace to cook all their meals. They used spits on which meat was turned to roast it. Copper kettles were hung over the 1ire to cook other food. When not in use, the kettles were hung from the mantel. Today, copper utensils are hung from the mantels of fireplaces to adorn them in memory of this old custom, How many great events have had their beginning in the mind of someone dreaming by the fireside.T Men have built castles in the embers of the iire only to see them consumed, toppled over, and reduced to ashes before their eyes. The hearth played a part in Ivanhoeis future. Ivanhoe, who was disguised as the Palmer, took compassion on Isaac the Jew and gave him his place at the hearth, and the shivering outcast so appreciated the thoughtfulness of the Palmer that he used his riches to make it possible for Ivanhoe to appear in the tournament. Abraham Lincoln, among other great men, during his boyhood pursued his studies on the hearth, using the light of the fire to read by. Fireplaces have lost most of their usefulness in these modern times. They have been relegated to the back yard as grills to be used for Wiener roasts and steak fries . They have become in many homes more of an ornamentation. We often find beautiful tile fireplaces, the mantels of which are adorned with precious figurines. or antiques, or modern figures, but the iireplace itself is cold and unused. In many homes gas logs have taken the place of real wood. I have been in homes where the fireplace has been ignored entirely, a sofa or some large piece of furniture having been placed across the opening. I often Pace Sixty-six think of What these people are missing. In New York I have seen mantels, or the hollow shell of a ftreplace. moved from one apartment to another and used for ornamentation or as a piece of furniture.

My family must have built our house around our fireplace. It takes up one Whole wall of our living room and we burn thirtyvsiX-inch logs in it.

Page Sixtyeseuen UPPER SCHOOL ESSAY - HONORABLE MENTION THE MUMPS AND I by JOAN DREWRY, Grade 12 The alarm, and Monday morningf I stumble toward the bathroom with eyes closed and mouth open. What a feeling! Can it be that the thought of school affects me like this? I Will not admit it. I reach for my tooth brush. and it moves away from me. Likewise my wash rag and towel are evasive. I grab the towel rack as it goes past and call Weakly, Mother . Up comes Mom in a hurry, shaking the thermometer and saying, It wont be nearly as bad after you get there and see the other girls. Youill forget it's the first day and feel fine. I have no temperature and my mother gives me the quick once-over and insists that some hot cereal and fruit juice will fix everything. Dad backs her up with buttered toast and a promise to drive me to school. I am chilled to the bone at the very thought of it, and apply two sweaters and a coat, pick up my books and weakly say Hgoodbye, feeling abused at having to go to school when so near to death. y Time drags by. History. English, Spanish! My throat is dry, my head spins, my stomach hurts. I cannot sit through Biology. A consultation with Miss Faran and a call to Dad, and I am on my way home again All I ask is permission to go to bed, but instead I am whisked off to the doctor, who thumps and listens and peers suspiciously into my eyes, ears, nose and throat and sends me off to another doctor. The same process is repeated with instructions to go to the Hill TOD Laboratory for a complete blood analysis. This, I know, will be the end. All of my pleading with mother does no good. She explains, persuades, then pulls and pushes until there I sit limp and White in the presence of a white-robed attendant with a smile on his face and a very sharp little knife in his hands He demands I hold out a finger. All is over, and what a surprise e no pain - and I leave with all ten fingers. At last at home and in bed! That is all I asked in the hrst place. In comes my industrious mother with hot water bottle, thermometer, and iinally, two little green pills she has fallen heir to somewhere along the line. Then I am left alone, I want only to be alone. Morning and woe is me! My head aches, my neck is stiff, and I can scarcely open my mouth. Mother stands over me with the thermometer, an- nouncing the presence of the doctor, Who holds a mirror before me, with the information that it is a good case of mumps. He also gives me some lovely little capsules with a fancy name and says that I have that in common with the wife of President Peron of Argentina w the same kind of capsules flown to her bedside during the night. I sip soup through a straw, swallow pills, cling to the hot water bottle, refuse to look in the mirror, and await the miracle of the pills. Slowly my dull mind begins to be conscious of time. Here it is Saturday, a whole week missed from school, With my head resembling a pumpkin in size and shape, book reports to get in. compositions to write, and chapters of History. Spanish and Biology to review. IIMother, could you bring me the ice pack? Page Sing-eighr FULFILLED AMBITION by JULIA CLARKE, Grade 10 I wonder why I sit here so often gazing far off to the horizon, where nothing is visible but the tree tops and the azure sky. The tree tops, a maze of fluttering green leaves in the summer, are but a bare entanglement of branches in the winter, though beautiful, delicate, and lacy, Sometimes the sky is an indescribable blue, spotted With clouds that resemble oversized meringues; some- times it is bleak and gray. Why do I come here so often? Because here I see only the tops of things! To me the ambition of a tree is to grow tall and stately - to stretch its branches toward the sky. Here, I see just that. The sky? Perhaps the sky is the floor of heaven e the only part of paradise visible to man. Perhaps it is a reminder to us that somewhere there is a perfection ? a life of happiness and peace. Yes. this view is extra meaningful to me. Without the slightest effort I can clearly see in it two great aspirations e the realized ambition of a tree and the promise of realized ambition to man. All our lives we look upward; we strive for something beyond that which we have; we are discontented; we wear ourselves and others out, ever desirous of more, more, more. Some of the things for which we strive are good: others are note But, no matter What the goal is, to reach it, involves work and anguish. Here where the tree tops seem to brush the sky it is restful to sit gazing OK to the horizon where nothing is visible but the tree tops and the sky. Here is fulfilled ambition! AN IMMORTAL WAVE by RUTH CLARKE, Grade 10 It is born on a calm day, a minute ripple on the still water. Nursed along by Mother Natures winds, it gradually grows, until finally it is an immense mountain. Then it takes its place with fellow waves and roams the high seas. A gay and an exciting life these rough waves must lead. But like that of human beings, a wave's life must end. Old and travel-worn, it finally dashes itself violently against a rocky shore, or sometimes it finds its way into a still bay. Not like its old self, laughing and reckless, but sad and subdued it quietly makes its way to the shore, where it laps upon the sand, and silently ends its life. Yet part of this wave must live. Perhaps not the old body; but, unnoticed. the soul of the wave slips back into the water, where it will find eternal paradise among its old familiar haunts. Page Sixry-m'ne , L: CW? Kr I . K42 a .

Page Seventye th ree CLASS HISTORY 'iWhen I was one, I was just begun, when I was two I was nearly new a to be more speciiic, the nucleus of the class of 1950 did not enter until the third grade, in the form of Ann and Jill. When I was three, I was barely me , then my first accomplishment was learning to say the Lord's Prayer in what passed for French. When I was four, I was not much more a no additions were made that year. My major diversions were playing house in the pine trees and kick- the-can in the playfield. HWhen I Was five, I was just alive , but rather pleased to be in Mrs. Hall's room, having been promoted from ubiggest of the little girls to Hlittlest of the big girls , HWhen I was six, I was learning tricksh a my major vices being playing ball in Singing and hiding from our speech teacher. Our friendship with Miss Faran was cemented by numerous trips to her ofiice. When I was seven, 1 was just past eleven and joined by three blonde ex-Kilgore-ers a Charlene, Greta, and Barbara. Greta acquired her first ruler, and our vocabularies were enriched by several phrases: Cest Ia cioche qui sonnel , HHOW vas you? , and you all , the last by our 'iChattarioogie shoe-shine girl. iiWhen I was eight, I could hardly wait to join the life of the upper school: we became members of the Dramatic and Glee Clubs, and Student Council. When I was nine. life was hne . Joined by Ann Garretson. we survived Freshman Week not much the worse for wear and with the added knowledge that lamp shades make becoming bonnets, and that Adele could write lovely poems. When I was ten, I was learned thenh, and Nancy, Marian. and Betsey came to add to the general chaos. I believe we did not endear ourselves to Miss Walsh during our Sophomore year, though we faithfully did our geometry after lunch and tried to amuse her by our hand-clapping chorus. We heard a rumor that Miss Walsh asked for a ten-cornered room to accommodate more of us, UWhen I was eleven, I was seven and sevenh a that is, we became fourteen With the addition of Lucille, Joan, Betsy, Anne Day, and Di. We entertained Mrs. Juhel with heated debates as she administered a few drops of nourishment to our failing vocabularies from Word Wealth, which we now quote freely. Finally, in our white sweaters, we proudly took our positions for con- vocation, strewed apple skins about the senior room, and devoted ourselves to the task of producing The Milestone. So now we are Seniors i'we're as clever as clever , a and we'li probIly be Seniors for ever and ever. Page Seventy-four dfcao'd dramas Page Seuenzy-Iiuc Lucius, ' Th5 LOOK pgnnid ha 5a anon ?
