THE SPECTRUM 1935 Edited by the Senior Class ot Dupo Community High School Dupo, Illinois FOREWORD ■ As the raindrops produce the beautiful spectral arch across the heavens, so does Nature produce these colors in the flora of the bluffs which form the background for D. C. H. S. It is the hope of the SPECTRUM staff that we may catch and portray that glimpse of the various phases of school life which will serve as a rainbow memory. As decades pass and you make your quest for the pot of gold may this book rekindle your youthful ambition and paint in spectral colors a panoramic vista of old times, old joys, and old friends. DEDICATION H To Mr. Faulkner, our Senior advisor, who for two years has served as the shock absorber of our class and is still able to sustain his sunny disposition with a cheerful smile,— who has shown an abiding interest in all student activities, —whose personality and ability as a teacher will long be remembered by those now departing from the school,—in appreciation of his untiring efforts to present us as a class that might be a credit to the Dupo Community High School; to him, as an expression of esteem and gratitude, we, the Senior Class, respectfully dedicate the SPECTRUM. k CONTENTS ■ THE SCHOOL ■ THE CLASSES ■ ACTIVITIES ■ FEATURES THE SCHOOL VOCATIONAL BUILDING MAIN BUILDING FACULTY PURL VOGT SMITH DYROFF SOPP BARTON MURFIN McNELLY LIEBIG BARKER LAURENT ■ R.

JUNIORS ft We come to Dupo High School in 1932, and were divided into three groups. Miss Goscho. Mr. Baldwin, and Mr. Maas were our faculty advisors. During our Freshman year we enjoyed many parties and other activ-ies. The next September we were more polished and could then look down i.pon the Freshies. That year we elected Ruel Bean as our president. We lived up to the old adage Sophomores are those who knoweth not, but knoweth that they knoweth not ; however, we began to open our eyes and take prominent positions in various organizations. This, the third year, has been more exciting. For our class officers this year we elected Antoinette Sauget. president; Trevor Kirksey. vice-president, and Helen Hofstetter. secretary-treasurer. We sponsored a chicken dinner which was a grand success. Another activity was the selling of candy at basketball and football games. We enjoyed a theater party at the Avenue in East St. Louis. Our class is very proud of our school and its bus system which enables us to have many enjoyable trips. We also gave the play Clarence which proved to be very entertaining and financially successful. The mcney was spent to royally entertain the Seniors with a boat excursion. As Juniors we have passed through the days of those who knoweth, but knoweth not they knoweth ; and now that we know, and know we know, we are ready and eager for our Senior year. Eighteen SOPHOMORES | In the loll of 1933, we entered this high school os Freshmen. Although we were inexperienced in the ways of a high school, we soon caught on and ranked along with the rest of the students. The entertainment of that year was marked by parties and hayrides. In January, 1934, a new class joined us with Mr. Maas as advisor. It had a membership of sixteen pupils. Miss Gascho was our class advisor while Miss Hartman, Mr. Kipfer. and Mr. Keys were our home room teachers. With the return of autumn D. C. H. S. once more became alive. We proudly returned with the sophistication that accompanies the sophomore rank. No longer were we to be pointed out os freshie , gourd , or greenie . Registration was finally completed and we returned to school life in earnest. During the first semester of our second year, Marion Deken reigned as president: Harry Francis as vice-president: John Alspach as secretary. and Genevieve Kelling as treasurer. During the second semester June Onstott was president: Virginia Peters, vice-president, and Naomi Schlichter, secretary and treasurer. The activities of this year have been parties, hayrides, and individual homeroom theatre parties. An outstanding activity was the serving at the N. F. L. Speech Meet which was held here.

FRESHMEN | Ninety-seven wide-eyed people entered the portals of D. C. H. S. lost September to be known as the class of '38. At an early class meeting Margaret Francis was elected president; Charles Gill, vice-president; and Eugene Pierce, secretary-treasurer. June Adkins and Leroy May represented the Freshmen on the Student Council the first semester, while Wynona Patrick and George Kimbrell were elected the second semester. A hiking party on the high school campus started us off on our high school social life. This was followed by a party in the cafeteria that was chaperoned by our sponsors: Miss Jones, Miss Picken, Mr. Maas, and Mr. Smoot. January twenty-seventh we felt ourselves rise a notch on the scale of seniority when twenty of us became Sophomores. These were replaced by fourteen new freshmen who launched out on their high school careers the second semester with Mr. Barker as their advisor. They showed their interest and activity by having a party soon after their entry. With one year at D. C. H. S. finished we realize more fully the opportunities offered by our school. May we journey through our remaining years with fond memories of our trial and error experiences as Freshmen and establish ourselves as a vital factor in the annals of our alma mater. twenty SENIOR HISTORY |f We, the Senior Class of 1935, entered D. C. H. S. in 1931 with an enrolment of sixty-eight. We broke the record for being the largest class ever to enter. Atter initiations of various fcrms we settled down to barn the routine of High School. The class was divided into three groups under three class advisors: Miss Dyroff, Mr. Maas and Mr. Kipfer. J. B. Chaney was elected president; Dallas Smith, vice-president, and William Onstott, secrotary. Our first social event was a hayride. The second step into the social world was a party in the cafeteria. Most of us managed to slide by the first semester and become advanced Freshmen. A new class of e:ghteen Freshmen were started at the beginning of the semester with Mr. Smoot as their class advisor. With a party in the cafeteria we ended our lives as Freshmen. In 1932 we entered D. C. H. S. os Sophomores. Mr. Minier was advisor cf the boys, Miss Martin of the girls, and Miss Smith of the mid-year Sophomores. We elected Marian Weinel, president; Don Brubaker, vice-president, and Kathryn Miller, secretary. Our Junior year saw us swell up with pride for we were now upper class-men! Walter Frederick was elected president; Ruth Westerbeck, vice-president: Bob Goodwin, secretary, and Marian Weinel, treasurer. An outstanding Junior-Senior banquet was our constant goal. With that in mind we presented That's One on Bill. Mr. Faulkner, our class advisor, coached the play. We loyally entertained the Seniors and Faculty on May twelfth with a dinner-dance. September tound us enrolling in D. C. H. S. for our last year—a year that will remain outstanding in our chain of memories. We were fortunate to have Mr. Faulkner as our advisor, and Miss Oesterle and Mr. Minier as our home room teachers, this year as well os last year. We elected Reba Crawford os president; Don Brubaker as vice-president; Walter Frederick as secretary, and Willis Lohman as treasurer. We presented Three Wise Foci; early in the year and The Family Upstairs in April. Mr. Faulkner directed both of them. After an eventful and happy year, forty-seven of us joined the ranks ot the Alumnae. The remaining eighteen were the members of the mid-year class. We were Pioneers in this respect. The school nurtured us carefully and offered us a splendid curriculum with many selections. We have filtered into every phase of school life and now, as school leaders, plan to reign next year. What shall January ot 1936 bring us? Time alone can tell. Twenty-one SENIOR HONOR ROLL H One of the difficult problems encountered in publishing the SPECTRUM was that ot selling enough books to make it a financial success.

Three Wise Fools. It was the story of three bachelors (Virgil Gaines, Raymond Rose, and Robert Stoner) who, having sunk deeply into ruts , suddenly found themselves to be the guordion of the daughter (Reba Crawford) of their former sweetheart. Much exciting action came about through her love affair with the financier's nephew (Bobby Goodwin) and the introduction of her father. The supporting cast did much to make this a worth while production and a credit to the director, Mr. Faulkner. GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Illinois League High School Girls Athletic Association has a set of required standards in scholarship, sportsmanship, games, posture, and hygiene that must be net before receiving a school letter or state award. Dorothy Dashner, Geraldine Goley, Constance Lee, and Eulo Spindler have been successful in earning awards in the class tournaments in tennis, basketball. volley ball, and soccer—a new sport to most G. A. A. members. Kathryn Miller is president: Beverly Eostridge, vice-president: Geraldine Goley. secretary: Elizabeth Miller, treasurer: and Miss Vogt, faculty sponsor.

HY-SCHOOL ECHO Serving os o medium between the school and the community, the HYSCHOOL ECHO has done much to keep the community informed of the activities ot the High School. The comic element in the form of cartoons and jokes is an interesting feature of the paper. This activity is designed to create journalistic skill in the students who choose it. The students act as reporters, bringing in the news and writing it up. The HY-SCHOOL ECHO has appeared weekly on one page of the HERALD TRIBUNE for the last two years. This year Rebo Crawfcrd served loyally as its editor, while Miss Smith was the faculty advisor. DEBATE Q The debate team in most of the meets this year was composed of Dorothy Dashner, Leona Franklin, and Morris Sussman on the affirmative; and Jeanette Hamilton, Merle Reed, and Pauline Jerome on the negative. Dupo v.-as represented in the Waverly Invitational Tournament, the district at Car-bondale, the Mascoutoh Invitational Speech Meet, and in the Chicago N. F. L. Meet. A special girls' team consisting of Dorothy Dashner, Leona Franklin, Jeanette Hamilton, and Esther Lillman, entered an invitational meet ct MacMurray College. Mr. Barker was the debate coach this year. Twenty-six HONOR SOCIETIES R Election to either the Junior or Senior Honor Society is a coveted honor at D. C. H. S. After a student has completed one semester's work with a B average he is eligible tor nomination and is voted upon by the faculty. Equal emphasis is placed on each of the four cardinal objectives of this national organization: Scholarship, Character, Leadership, and Service. Freshmen and Sophomores are eligible tc the Junior Honor Society which is sponsored by Mr. Laurent and is known as the Prairie Du Pont Chapter, while Juniors and Seniors strive for election to the Cahokia Chapter of the National Honor Society with Mr. Faulkner. STUDENT COUNCIL R The student council is rightfully a part of the administration. The personnel of the Executive Committee of the Student Council consists of two r members from each class and the principal. This organization represents the voice of the student body and encourages democracy and understanding in the executive policy of the school. The achievements which mark this year’s activities are: a revised handbook, rules and regulations for organ- izations. dances, the receipts of which were used fcr letters, and a reception committee tor the N. F. L. tournament. HONOR SOCIETY Back Row: Reed. Cunning- ham. Mr. Faulkner. We nel. Frederick. Doerr, H. Seymour. Second Row: D. Mosbocher Franklin. C. Seymour. L. Busch-mon. Schlichter. H.

Although under new direction the members showed a fine spirit of cooperation and accomplished excellent work. The Board of Education furnishes the instruments and an opportunity is given to every individual wishing to learn instrumental music. Mr. Murfin, the director, is a tull-time instrumental music instructor. Reviewing the work dene by the new and old members this year, it is expected that the future m years will find the D. C. H. S. Orchestra bigger and better than ever. BAND IQ Minutes, hours, weeks, months, the band has practiced faithfully. Was it werth it? There must have been some attraction to cause so many boys end girls to give up other activities in order to practice. What student hasn't been thrilled to hear the familiar strains of the band at football and basketball games? We are very proud of our bond, which has complete instrumentation. Mav the band continue to increase and progress rapidly as it has this year with Mr. Murfin, director. We trust that future bands will be a source of pride to D. C. H. S. Twenty-eight BELLE CF BAGDAD H With a street scene in Bagdad as the background the Belle of Bagdad was very effective. The operetta was a marked success with Esther Lillman ar.d Virgil Gaines in the leading roles. The delightful music and story were closely rivaled by the comic element introduced by Don Brubaker. Morris Sussman. Lucille Buschman, and Harlan Seymour. Claudine Barton's sob dance, the dancing chorus, and the vocal choruses added much to the beauty of this annual musical event which is presented each year by the vocal music department under the direction of Miss Oesterb. £ With the impressive play, Smilin Thru. the N. F. L. began its activities for this school year. The lighting effects and musical accompaniment were enjoyable innovations. This ploy and other N. F. L. activities were coached by Miss Smith. The proceeds of this play were used to purchase screens and furniture which are invaluable to the Speech department. This group also gave the contest play Cabbages. The N. F. L. is a national organization of high school students who participate in speech events. Dorothy Dashner is president of our chapter, and Esther Lillman is secretary. operetta Back Row: H. Seymour. L.

SCIENCE CLUB | The chief aim of the Science Club is to create on interest in the scientific activities of the world. At the weekly meetings science magazines are distributed. All students who ere active members make at least twenty reports each semester. The Science Club annually enters exhibits in the Junior Acodemy of Science meetings. Mr. Maas, the faculty advisor, is cne of the directors of this crganizaticn. From the twenty-two members Richard Hooch was elected president: Vernon Hoepfinger, vice-president: Jack Foarty, secretary; and J. V. Loless, librarian. LINOLEUM BLOCKING AND PRINTING £ We must have a ccricature fer the paper today. That is a familiar call to all students in the linoleum block printing club. This activity, supervised by Mr. Smoot, makes various cuts that ore used in the HY-SCHOOL ECHO and in school advertising. Closely allied with this organization is the printing club sponsored by Mr. Baldwin. The members of this activity print many of the forms (as report slips) so familiar to the student body. They are invaluable to many of the departments because of their readiness to be of service in printing programs, tickets, advertisements, and the like. Thirty GIRL RESERVES H Freshman and Sophomore groups of the Girl Reserves spent the second semester working on hobby projects for display at the spring open house. This group was joined by the Senior Girl Reserves and the Home Economics Club in giving the Mother and Daughter party early in May. The party was p.anned for all g'rls in school and their mothers. A buffet supoer was followed by an appropriate Mother s Day Program. Mrs. McNelly was the guiding hand in the underclassmen groups, while Miss Jones led the Junior-Senior group. The Girl Reserves offer a somi-dovotional program to girls interested in a religious activity. HOME EC. CLUB K Our Home Economics Club is affiliated with the state and national organizations. Fortunately it was able to send two delegates. Reba Sims and EJeen Mayer, to the state convention at Springfield. Miss Liebig, the club sponsor. Ruth Westerbeck. and Marian Weinel also attended the meeting this year. Among the other activities of the club were the purchase of twenty dollars' worth of equipment for the department, assisting the Girl Reserves in the Mother and Daughter party, and giving a tea in honor of the faculty members and tho r wives who were newcomers to D. C. H. S. in the fall of 34. GIRL RESERVES Back Row: I Harris. Sharp. J. Keddick. M Elliott. L Muehlhauser. I Boschman, Smelter. E. Hof-.tetter. H. Hof trttar. V Bow?rs. M Elliot Burke, Zebos.

VOCAL MUSIC 4 f| Vocal music is encouraged through classroom courses and activities. Emphasis is placed on both group and individual work. A popular feature of this year's program has been the general assembly singing. The last two years the class of 35 won the attractive trophy in the annual preliminary contest which is held as an intra-mural event. The winners of this contest are entered in the county contest. Contestants are sent to the various divisional meetings of the Illinois High School Literary and Music Associa-4 tion and the Washington University contest. Much credit is due Miss § Oesterle, the instructor of vocal music. SPEECH | The enthusiastic response to speech was a result of the interest created by the National Forensic League. The N. F. L. sent representatives to speech meets at Woodriver, MacMurray College, ond Mascoutah. Our chapter sponsored a large speech meet on March second with more than two hundred contestants representing thirteen schools. There were representatives in the sub-district meet at Carlyle, the district meet at Carbon-dale. the county meet at Dupo, state finals at Chicago, and the National contest at Kent, Ohio. Miss Smith coaches this very interesting ond worthwhile activity. Thirty-tw'' FOOTBALL ■ Football at D. C. H. S. is still in its infancy. The 1934 season started with twenty-five on the squad of which cnly five were lettermen. Although the vast majority ot the squad were inexperienced in gridiron tactics, they made much improvement under the leadership of Coach Keys and Captain Fred Gill. Entering each game with fighting spirit the Tigers emerged victorious in the last gome. The seven leHermen who are left as the nucleus for next year's team hope that they have broken the spell and will claim many victories next year. Harold Dashner has been elected captain. BASKETBALL ■ The basketball season was opened ouspiciously with a victory over the Highland quintet and at that time prospects looked very good. The ensuing contests showed that the team lacked esprit de corps, and consequently, did not make so good a record as was predicted. The conference placing was a tie with New Baden tor third place, with a percentage of .500. Dupo placed fourth in the First Annual Cahokia Conference Hcliday Tournament held ot Mascoutah during the Christmas vacation. The season’s record is far below the pertcrmances of our teams in the past. BASKETBALL Back Row: Lynch. Becket, F Gill. Bostion, D. Stott. Second Row: Mgr . B. Ad-kins, and DuMahon; Ferry, Lo-less.

Every student is required to take gym and study health and hygiene. Competitive games are scheduled in football, basketball, baseball, and track. These games are characterized by hard and square play. Members of the various squads are required to observe rigid training rules which encourage a healthy and vital life. f The student body, faculty, and community enjoy and support athletics by following the teams in the various encounters.

In the schedule were included three dual meets, one triangular meet, the district meet, and the conference meet. Three of these meets were conducted on our own track. The outstanding prospects were Captain Chaney, William Onstott, and J. 9. Loless. Our entries in the distance runs and broad jump were below the par of our past contestants. Only two Freshmen were contenders in track this year; they are Ray Johnson, Jr., and G. C. Riddle. BASEBALL £ Baseball accompanied football as a fall sport for the first time this year. Of the twenty-five who responded to the first coll issued by Coach Keys, three were lettermen. Walter Frederick, a senior, was elected Captain for this season. Due to the conflicting schedule between baseball and football few outstanding events characterized this year's team; however, Bill Onstott pitched the first no-hit game in the history of our school. With the abundance of raw material this year, we anticipate and prophesy more favorable results for the team in ‘36. !hi !y t FEATURES BOB GOODWIN A MOST POPULAR MAN Thirty-eight WILL | We, the class ot 1935, being of sound mind and body, being about to pass out ot this sphere of education, do make and publish this, our frst and last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills or promises by us at any time, heretofore made, or mayhap, carelessly spoken, one to the other, as the thoughtless wish of an idle hour.

PROPHECY | One rainy afternoon while engaged in the delightful occupation of paging through some old memory books, I was suddenly interrupted by the mailman. Not having expected any mail, I was greatly surprise to see a long white envelope. I hurriedly broke the seal and recognized the handwriting of our class secretary, Wolter Frederick, on the familiar school stationery of my Alma Mater. It was a reunion of the Class of ‘35. Immediately I decided to attend and made the preparations. Upon my arrival the first person that my eyes fell upon was a large portly gentleman who was talking quite loudly with a small henpecked gentleman. I greeted them joyfully for they were none other than Morris Suss-man and Firmin Pluff. Upon talking to them I found that Sussman had made his first million in a nation wide chain of meat markets. It seemed that Firmin had devoted a great part of his life to raising a large family, but was amply rewarded tor his nine sons composed one of the finest ball-teams in the country. Accompanied by gasps of delight and excitement an important personage alighted from a black limousine. Yes, indeed! It was Fred Gill, the famous movie idol. Fred had become famous overnight and was the idol cf every woman's heart in America. His arrival was followed by the appearance of a famous track star who had just set the new world's record for speed and endurance. It was none other than Marshall Berger. Turning to the gatheing I noticed Sherrill Sellinger, the leading crooner over station B-U-N-K. Standing by his side was Willis Lohman, our class Treasurer, who told me that he was enjoying life as a swivel chair farmer and chicken raiser. Everyone seemed to be commenting of the fiery young crator who was to address the gathering. It was Don Brubaker, now a noted politician. A lady in somber black, whom I recognized as Beverly Eostridge. told me that she was spending her life as a Missionary to China. I inquired of Beverly about our class president, Reba Crawford. She replied that she had been jilted by Russell Kelso and to hide her feelings she became a torch singer. A tall cultured lady joined our group of old classmates. As the head of an exclusive girls' school near Annapolis, Marian Weinel set a splendid example ot culture and poise to her students. I sow Elizabeth and Kathryn Miller surrounded by a group of admirers. They were discussing their position in the front row of Earl Carrol's vanities. Among this group was Bob Goodwin, now a successful Parisian gigolo. When I joined them I learned that Robert Stoner had been recognized as the world's finest tenor by the Chicago Civic Opera Company. Robert attributed all his success to Miss Oesterle and her training rules in music. We were interrupted by the pretty Ruth Westerbeck who leads a charming life teaching French in the high school of her home town, Columbia. Some one touched me on the shoulder. Whirling around I found it to be Dorothy Snyder and Selma Sinclair. Dorothy is the new proprietress ot the Ranch, a popular dancing resort. Selma is married to an aviator. She has great difficulty trying to keep track of her husband. We were joined by the great inventor, Robert Maze. As Robert had always been an active person it was not a surprise to learn that it was he who had made the great discovery ot perpetual motion. Duane Van Scoyk had purchased a trick monkey, with this and his accordion, he is gradually making a small fortune. It was rumored that the glamorous movie actress, Dorothy Sharp, would not be able to be with us today. I turned to see Lorraine Burke surrounded by o happy flock of youngsters. She is one of those stenographers who married her boss, and is now dictating to her husband and children. Mildred Tipton came toward me and greeted me affectionately. After waiting many years for Harlan Seymour she was grieved to find that he had secretly wed Necio Bowers. In order to forget her deep grief she became a chorus girl in the follies. That evening we gathered to re-live our high school banquet days. For entertainment brief reports were given of members who were not present. From these reports I learned fate's decree fcr the remaining members of the class of 35. Dorothy Doerr, now America's most famous pianist, is making a tour of Europe. Josiephine Reddick, a lover of sports, is now a gym instructor at the University of Illinois. Esther Lillman is now engaged as a traveling director tor home talent productions. She is accompanied by Tom Brown who directs the Vaudeville skits between the acts. William On-stott, cross country runner of high school days, is manager of a transcontinental trucking system. In the business he employs Robert Houseman as shipping clerk and Silvester Koch as head mechanic. Eleonora Hofstetter, a loading stylist ot America, recently won the title of the best dressed woman in the U. S. Mary De Mange, whose son and daughter are students in the D. C. H. S., is an active member of the Alumnae Association. Judy Abel who was noted for her ephemeral knowledge of the facts and dates of history is now teaching it. Henry Mosbacher is president of Co-Colleges for those who especially desire a rigorous education. Wilbur Bryant is still stalling along in no particular direction. Lloyd Riebeling, a husky athlete, is the manager of Washington University's basketball team. As yet he has not won Judy's hand. Helen Zebos, after winning two potato sacks ot medals, is trying to perfect her toe dancing. Viola Phillips is settled down and is putting her Home Economics into practice. J. B. Chaney, our star athlete, is now coach at Notre Dame and insists that all his men follow his exemplary standards.

Harlan Hosier who had a knack at making A's in Chemistry is teaching that delight-subject in Vassar. It was surprising to learn the number of girls that take an interest in Chemistry, or is it Harlan that interests them? Paul Jones is leading a happy life as a bachelor. We wonder how he does it. Some of the boys would like to know his secret formula. Rebo Sims is seeing America first. Perhaps Reba couldn't quit riding on busses. Irene Micheal is teaching ping-pong on the S. S. Leviathian passenger liner between the U. S. and Europe. Irene says it is a great game. Nicholas Adele, who married Irene, accompanies her everywhere as he is employed on the same boat as a swimming teacher. Constance Lee was in Dupo and came to the reunion. She told me of the trip she had just completed. Constance had just seen all of her old classmates. She found Mildred Elliott in her home near Parks Airport. Together they had seen the great comedians, Virgil Gaines and Raymond Rose, who were giving o performance in the largest cities of the country. In Chicago Constance found that a large circus was creating a great deal of excitement. She resolved to see what was causing all the commotion in the fair city. It was Kussmaul and Stuckey's wonderful circus; Stuckey's portion was Forty three a trained flea act. She left the circus and went to Hot Springs by airplane. Upon her arrival she heard the familiar voice of Donald O'Brien crying, Taxi, taxi! Harold Dashner was the most popular guide at this famous resort. He had been hurt when driving an ambulance and was in Hot Springs to recuperate. On her way to California she stopped at Salt Lake City where she met three famous clarinetists in the Symphony Orchestra, Freida Mae Sims, Laverna Muehlhauser, and Irene Brooks. Leaving for California on a conducted tour she found Milan Warren was a fellow passenger. Milan was now a man of leisure and was touring the West. Much to their surprise Joseph Thieleman was conducting their tour. In San Francisco she found Lucille Buschman and Geraldine Goley were performing in a grand opera. Lucille was the leading lady and Geraldine the special toe dancer. Returning home by airplane, she had a narrow escape when the motor went dead. The pilot landed safely and called for help from the nearest airport. Arthur May and Raymond Becket were the mechanics who met the emergency call. She learned from them that Bernice Monroe was delving into Latin Literature in Rome. We were parting when I realized I had forgotten to ask Constance what she was doing to make herself useful. She replied that she was teaching typing in a New York high school and had now made 120 words. JOKES My face is my fortune, said J. B. Chaney. A beautiful girl looked at him and yawned. You are unfortunate, she said, but that gold tooth could be pawned. Mr. Baldwin—(arriving home after midnight)— I'm tired, I’ve had my nose to the grindstone since early morning.

Freddy Gill: No, they hod been expecting it for years. Found on Edward Boker registration card: Name of parents: Mama and Papa. Mr. Barker: I had an awful fright last week. Minier: Yes, I saw you with her. Sherrill Sellinger: How come you go steody with Mildred? Harlan Seymour: She's different from other girls. Sherrill: How is that? Harlan: She's the only girl who will go with me. Raymond Rose: Virgil's mouth wasn't shut a minute all the way to the contest. Miss Smith: Was he talking all the time? Raymond: No, he ate too much candy. Morris Sussman: I wish I had a million dollars. I'd go to the picture shows every day then. Firmin Pluff: You'd take me with you wouldn't you, Morris? Morris: Now! If you're too lozy to wish for yourself you can stay home. Miss Oesterle: What is the matter with your singing? You are simpl howling. Willis Lohman: I'm only hitting on one tonsil.
