SENIOR CLASS PROPHESY The U. S. went wild today when Miss Helen Russell was elected as Vice-President of the U. S. Miss Russell is one of the best educated young women in the world ajid is the b est speaker and orator that we have ever known. HELEK RUSSELL Flash! Flash! the news flashes—daring young woman makes solo stratosphere flight. Kiss Ruth McGrath has now reached the heighth of one hundred miles. Everyone is now wondering whether they will ev.r see her again» Ruth has gained fame but alas! she is an old maid! RUTH KcGRATH I was badly in need of a drink so I went down to Mr. Dean Zimmernam's saloon to quench my thirst. Upon entering I no- ticed some very rowdy young mt,n who Wvjre getting well or- ganized. The men kept getting noisier so Dean, showing his old football ability, collared them one by one and botted the m out of the door. DEAM ZIITERTAM I received a letter the other day from my old friends Alta (Williams) Gentry and her husband, Jack, inviting me to be their guest at their Dude ranch in northern Arizona. I headed the invitation. As I arrived I saw three little red headed boys with big brown eyes. The Gentrys have a very beautiful ranch. ALTA WILLIAMS Cn passing through a little town I had to stop while a school bus was unloading some children. I happened to glance into the bus and almost turned my car over for I saw James Forehand sitting up in the driver's seat. JAKES FOREHAND One day I decided that I had better get me a new suit as my old one was not good enough to wear as Sunday best. I de- cided that I should get me a very good one so I went down to what Mew York boasted as its best store. A large sign caught my eye for it read Heskett and Ueskett Brothers: Best Dress- ed Men in Hew York, Come in and have them Improve Your Appear- ance. I went into the store and sure enough, Carl and Reo were the owners. CaRL AMD REO MUSKETT « When I was in Los Angeles I met my old class-mate Bill Wi- lson and his wife Helen Stover selling pictures on the streets. The Wilsons are very happy in spite of the fact that they dont have a steady income. BILLIE WILSOK I visited Kr. Leroy Raineville and his wife Laura Cranford Raineville the other day. I was one of the first to have a look at the Raineville ouintuplets (What a man) Leroy is a very proud father and thinks that he will have to sell the dairy to make? both ends meet if business doen't pick up soon.

On my way back to Jerkwater, Texas, I ran across Pearl (Brid- ges) Romney who is now traveling, v ith her husband, Ianthus on trucking trips. Pearl said that if her old man would quit the in- fernal trucking business, that she would be kind enough to make a living for him, as tap dancer in a Vaudiville act. (Poor Pearl, she always said that she’d be a tap dancer. While I was in Phoenix (attending important business)I accep- ted the kind invitation of Mr. Robert R. Aker and his charming wife, Iona Wilkins Aker. Robert still thanks Miss Hoover for her careful training of Iona in Home Ec. It made my heart turn over when I saw how Bob expressed his love for his little kiddies (Bob always loved kids.) After leaving the Aker’s I want to the Capital to see Gover- nor Alfred Attaway, to attend to business transactions I was dis- apointed by not being able to see him for he was in a special legislation session. (Poor Alfred is a bachelor yet.) I decided to go home through Duncan and see my old friends.On arriving in Duncan I noticed a very beautiful home with several children playing in the , yard.One little child looked very famil- iar to me, so I stopped and went into this home. Marlin Aker and Margaret lived there. Little Marian was just a chip of the old block. On looking in the Duncan Valley Messenger I read: Mr. Roy Trewitt and his wife, Mary Jane, and the little kiddies were visitors in Duncan last week. The Trewitts are now residing on a goat ranch in the Black Hills. Little Mary Jane, (who resembles her mother) is spending two weeks with little Margaret Aker. Miss Velma Burleson is home on a vacation from her dancing institution located in Hollywood. Velma not only teaches the people to dance but teaches them how to be graceful. Mrs. Katherine (Gordon) Mayo,who has been visiting her mother for the past month, has announced to the public her intentions of getting a divorce from Wayne and marrying her old school-boy sweetheart—Bill Boyd. If you ever need gas go to Bill's Station. Bill Dean and his charming wifeK(Curry)Dean are now so prosperous that they have taken charge of the Texaco Oil Products through-out the United When I want to be entertained I never fail to go to the Gale Circus.Alvin Gale is now a famous Lion trainer in his own Circus. Alvin's mighty voice certainly has power over those fierce lions. Do you ever listen to the radio? If you do turn to Station O.K.in Dallas and listen to Buddie Nunn's famous Men's lee Club. Mr.. Nunn is the director of one of the most famous Men's Glee Clubs in the World. We can all remember when Mr. Nunn was the leading barritone of D.U.H.S.
