As you continue your education in the future years may you realize that, “The right kind of an education teaches us, how to use what we know and how to find what we wish to know. It gives us ideals of private and public virtue and the culture to follow them. It distinguishes between the real and the sham. It sheds its clear bright into the earth’s dark places. It leads us out of bigotry and intolerance and points the way to broader sympathies and a fuller regard for the rights of others.” 2L -Hinton - nu'Mcy Business Our Year Book contains an illustrated record of the activities of the entire school year, and will be a memento of happy school days and joyful friendship and associations. The “Cuckoo” has become a firmly established tradition of our high school, having expanded in various ways from year to year, and having spread the name of D. H. S. far and wide. This year’s edition has been produced jointly by the students and faculty, with special supervision by a Faculty Committee and a Junior Editorial staff. Our object has been to construct an interesting and authentic history of the current school year, with a liberal mixture of humor and fancy.

To our other pedagogues we leave the knowledge that we aren’t as dumb as they think, even though they never taught us anything. In witness whereof, we the Senior Class of 1935, have to this, our last will and testament, set our hand and our seal this 29th day of May in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-five.

As usual it is our duty to publish this Cuckoo now is our chance to get even with our Classmates! Our class climaxed its history of progress and achievement by winning first place in the I )ramatic C ontest of the Senior High. On the social side of our Junior year was the Junior Prom, attended by a large number of friends and classmates. Many of the prizes of the Chester County Art Exhibit were awarded to Juniors, incidentally, Roy Eshleman won the Grand Prize. In the Declamation Contest the awards were again given to two Juniors, namely Roy Eshleman and Evelyn Brown. Our Duca, Holman, Shaw (D. H. S.) trio has performed for many school programs. We also have contributed much to the betterment of the athletic teams having such stars as Farrell, Norris, Muzzi, and Pollock on the teams.

This year our number has been increased by students entering from surrounding townships. This year we sponsored our first dance, and it proved a great success, it was the Sophomore Hop, it shows the school spirit and cooperation for which we would like to be known. Our class has been ably represented in varsity athletics by such famous people as Osborne, Collins, Brittan, and others. Our class is well known in dramatics, declamation, music, and at the other activities we have mentioned, and many of our number obtained honor roll fame each month for scholastic achievements. Our chief aim is to be a class that will and one of which they will be proud. long be remembered by Downingtown —Jack Welsh.

The schools have been interpreted to the public, and the citizens of the town hive cooperated to a high degree, with the school teachers and administrators. Every phase of school life has been brought to the attention of the parents through the P.T.A. programs, and there is cer' tainly no barrier of misunderstanding between the public and the classroom teacher. The teachers are encouraged to do their best by the fact that the fathers and the mothers of the pupils are taking an ever-increasing interest in classroom activities. This cooperation between home and school augurs a bright future for the youth of Downingtown. Page Forty-five Mrs. Bei.t.e M. Hutchison . Mrs. Howard Baldwin Mrs. J.

Dot Strouse 20 to 40 teaspoons of salt. This is to stop her from being too fresh. 2. Mary Rodgers—8 to 10 gallons of water. This accounts for her good supply of tears. 3. Elizabeth Greenleaf Enough lime to whitewash a big chicken coup. Perhaps that’s what makes her so fair. 4. Thelma McQueen—Enough glycerine for the bursting charge of a heavy shell. That’s what makes her so explosive. 5. Betsy Downing—Enough glutin to make 5 pounds of glue. Apparently that’s what makes her the clinging-vine type. 6. Rebecca Manley—Phosphorous enough to make 2200 match heads. No doubt that’s why she's a “hot mama.” 7. Helen Baldwin—Fat sufficient to make seven bars of soap. That’s why she can soft-soap the boys. 8. Nan Sheeler—Plenty of iron to make a six penny nail. That’s what makes her so “hard.” 9. Florence Dunn Sulphur enough to rid a dog of fleas. That’s the reason she’s so yellow. fmt Know? That Jean Zook thinks she is Jean Harlow? Well, there’s no harm in thinking that. That John Houston’s car is like a person with bad nerves?

Johnny, can you tell me what a hypocrite is? es m, it s a boy what comes to school with a smile on his face. Hill Peck—My views on bringing up the family are— Mrs. Peck—Never mind your views. I’ll bring up the family, and you go bring up the coal. Lillian Paige On the radio today I heard an address by a high woman official, and she said that women are naturally braver than men. Andrew—That can't be true, because a woman is afraid of a mouse. Lillian—Yes, and a man is afraid of that same woman! Margy Holman—“The man I marry must be as brave as a lion, but not forward; handsome as Apollo, but not conceited; wise as Solomon, but meek as a lamb; a man who is kind to every woman, but loves only me.” Charlie—“How lucky we met!” THOSE CRAZY SPEEDERS He drove his auto through the street, Cutting the air like a knife; To see the fellow you’d have thought He was fleeing for his life. He passed all cars and reached a spot As far as he could get— And then he stopped—and parked— And lit a cigarette! Miss Watkins—“You can’t sleep in my class.” Owen Fitzgerald—“If you’d talk lower, I could.” Mickey—“I met a beautiful girl this summer in the West Indies.” Ossie—“ J amaica ?” Mickey—“Not quite.” Ida—“Why is there no depression in Ireland?” Chink—“Because the capital is always ‘Dublin’.” Page Sixty-seven TEE CECECC Autmiraplts Aituerttsimj THE CUCHCC ■patrons anti patrmirssrs Mr. Mrs. Harold Kuhns Ernest Smedley John Heffner Dr. J.

She’s slower, and she’s still playing.” Arthur Nordlund (as he finished a piece on the violin)—‘‘Don’t you think that rather pretty?” Nels Olsen—“Oh, I don’t know; I think I could get more music out of my new shoes.” Miss Philips—“What’s a budget?” Ruth Hashinger—“Well, it is a method of worrying before you spend instead of after.” Mrs. Clark—“I notice your husband always has his hair cut short.” Mrs. Heist—“Yes, the coward!” A rather stout lady was making herself a nuisance in Brown’s store the other day. Nothing, it seemed, would suit her; and Evelyn was beginning to get a little weary. The Customer—“Haven’t you anything ready made that will fit me?” Brownie—“Yes, we have some umbrellas and handkerchiefs.” Mrs. Kuhns (to her husband who has fallen asleep at the wheel)—“I don’t mean to dictate to you, Harold, but isn’t that billboard coming at us awfully fast?” Mr. Fretz (rushing into the room)—“Wife, the house is on fire! We must hurry and get out! There’s not a minute to lose!” Mrs. Fretz— You beast, you’re always hurrying me!
