CJust recall how he used it in getting his 'Trig'J. When Gladys Daniels, having captured a number of hearts, Settled down to tranquillity and domestic arts In her old home town, Elwood, with an old home-town man, Harmon Ward, to drown all his sorrows, began In marine engineering his service to lend 3 And vows that for women ne'er more will he bend. The Rappeport Syndicate, a great candy concern, With Louie at head and 'Gene' Schrader at stern, Puts the once famous Palace of Sweets in the shade, And men everywhere talk of those two as 'self-made'. After years of hard labor Olive Surman has gained Reputation and millions for an invention world-famed Which fills all who use it with joy, spirit, and pep , Miss Alschuler into her dad's shoes did step And as a manager there she has had such success That it rivals e'en Mandel's, you may well guess, For o'er two city blocks now reaches the store, And soon will extend its dominion two more. Margory Clark is now shown in a great photo-play, And thousands their hearts at her feet would lay Were it not that the new star of all movie-land, Al Johnson has already captured her hand. Gladys Hancock, tennis champ, of all nations the best, Has giv'n up her career and traveled far west To Hawaii, where, called by the lure of the beach, To the native kids swimming she endeavors to teach. Though offers of marriage she's had time and again, She vows that she never' did 'fancy' the men. Mr. Heydorn always did shine in managing plays, But now in the Orpheum he'll spend all his days. Clara Hogan is seen in a small western town Teaching the three 'R's' to the natives around. Back to old Emerson now shifts the scene. Three prominent figures are still there, I ween, Miss O'Hara expounds for her class in the gym The value of exercise in becoming slim. Miss Onson in music has taken her place And no time can ever her triumph erase, For her chorus has tak'n cups and trophies a-plenty, Which brings mem'ries of happy old school days of '20. In principal's chair Ardath Ralph doth preside, 'Tis rumored, however, that soon she will glide Into wide and untried matrimonial sea, Accompanied by a master of Ancient History. Pk HF fl: As the oracle ceased, a great sigh through us thrilled, For each member, we knew, would an ample fame build And make Emerson ring in each corridor and hall With the name of these Seniors-the best class of all! -Clara H ogan, 220. Twenty-eight,

But during the months of the war that had passed Kate Witwer's rich voice even Melba's surpassed, And the soldiers in cantonment often did boast That her voice inspired courage to kill the dread host. In these stirring times still another star shone: B. Wilson, who played in the comedy J ones. In surgical work does Doc Stimson perform The most marvelous deeds upon all the forlorng 'Tis his greatest accomplishment, to my belief, To make a man from one leg and a false set of teeth. His ablest assistant's Miss Hammond, I vow, And happy are they in life partnership now. In quieter scenes now the crystal portrays Professor Greenwald, installed for the rest of her days Teaching English to freshmen at Emerson UU . Miss Ellen Strom's fame as a poetess grew When, after her Love of ct Village M alcl-deep She published a classical treatise on Sleep.

Heart cmd Soul, cmd Where Pclrclclise Lurlcs Firmly asseverates that each poem and all Isinspired by his wife Crlee Marjorie Halll. Mr. Rearick's M emoirs of Cl Lonesome War 'Vet' Is published each month in Bill Phillips' Gazette, The most flourishing newspaper Gary e'er knew, Which put Hearst out of business and the Gary Post, too. His wife, Enid Holmes, with her gay parties fills The society column- the expense is poor Bill's. A rural celebrity I now come across- 'Tis Faye Holmes, who is tilling the rich soil of Ross. She says that her country life, scms care or harm, Rivals Emerson's experiment out on Brook Farm. Not alone does she till, for Miss Winter stayed Faithful, as ever, and to Faye lends great aid.
