May. 16, 1934. v THE IRONIIEAD Page 9 SliNl0lt CLASS PR0l'llliCY One beautiful May morning I awoke feeling sure that something was going to happen. It did. After breakfast I opened my date book. This is what I read. May 5th, Sen- ior Class Reunion to be held at Eufaula May 19. My heart gave a leap of exultation. I was going back to the dear old high school and see all my schoolmates. I went to work to get my house in order, for there were servants to be considered, Paris creations to be purchased, so I made haste to get my house in order so I would be ready for that long-looked for- ward to trip. And I informed my husband that he would have to stay at the hotel during my ab- sence. It seemed as if I had ridden for days, when the porter came through and announced Eufaula, and on my arrival at the hotel, I was presented with a letter saying that the Reunion was to be held in the Study Hall of the High School. We were to go on a hike out in the country, have a regular picnic. and act like we did when we were all young and frivolous. I shall tell only of the banquet as it seemed to be enjoyed more, and the happenings of the hike are somewhat vague to my mem- ory. Of course, I wore my prettiest evening dress. The Study Hall was very prettily decorated with our 'hesitation she answered: Married, I ithat some of unmarried friends might be able to catch him. . Nadine Yarbrough was the next Ispeaker. She was as beautiful as, lever, probably more so for the' ,years had given her a sweeter ex-I I .pression. Her old way of makingl fabsurd statements had not left! her. She hesitated to speak, so' I iBill, thinking that he could help, ,her along a little, said: What, have you done Nadine? Withoutf i 4Bob. She said they had lived int Checotah where her heart had a 'longing for years before, but at this she was teaching dancing. while Bob was a Professor of the High School. r The next speaker was our belov- ed President, Roy Rousey, year, even as today. he was in all his dignity and majestic bearing. and his words were heeded by that day iand generation even as we today Jof the Class of 1934 had heeded and attended unto themg for his 'ambition had lead him ever up- iward and onward until he was the Governor of his state. We all know Charles Janeway -very well, when he gave an account of his past five years, he said he sat in a large office among many 'men of many minds a prosperous lawyer, the boy who is our high school days had never learned to lie. Charles said not even on the right would he say a word that 'could be untruly interperted. All the while I was pondering over these things, when our nex.. ,...-....l.-.- vwl,a..:,.,a vv..u -,:,s Qi.- ,.l-,.,., i i l I I 1 new steps to put to practice when she opened her theatre in New York. Garland McKee had fooled all of us. said that he was living in Cali- fornia running a chicken ranch. and that he was an authority on incubator chickens. He had mar- ried a California girl, but .she did not accompany him on his trip as she had to stay and care for little Garland and the incubators. He invited us all to visit him in the land of sunshine and flowers. Mildred Murphy was living in Hanna where she had finally suc- ceeded in winning the red headed boy of that twon. they were living happily at this time with their three lovely children. Betty Lou Nichols was a success- ful commercial teacher, and had taken Miss Simpson's place, but during the meantime she and Jim Moore had been married. He per- suaded her to quite teaching. so she could make hirn a real house, while he worked at the garage where he had succeeded his father. As we all could see Geraldine Ransom never liked the boys while she was in high school, well she was in the same state of mind, she had never married, and was still living with her mother and father out north of town. Edith Marie Henshaw had final- ly given up all hopes of bringing Lundy Allen up to suit herself as he had found new interest at Council Hill. At is happened that night some l Bruce Conley was an old bache- lor as the girls never interested him, while he was in high school, he Said he had rather read his books than to be bothered with children. Dorothy Day had won Everett Grose and they were happily mar- ried living on his farm at Tex- anna. Dorothy Howell had succeeded Miss Alden as Home Economics teacher in our high school. Ruby Howell had never married, but was happily writing articles for the well known magazines. Viley Johnson had been living in McAlester since his graduation, but he managed to leave the little blonde-headed wife and come to the reunion. Edith Nunn and Lonnie McPeak were living at Tahlequah with their two children while her hus- band was the teacher of science in the college. Gladys Osterhout had returned to her home in Arkansas. She was a teacher there, and was happily married to a cute boy of that place. Arthur Palmer had never mar- ried and was still working for his father in the wholesale business. Jim Taylor had heeded the waves Of Merle Allen that she had given from her office window, and he was up there with her now.

Every one took his place according to the place-cards, and to my surprise I found that I was sitting by the two Dorothy's, Doro- thy Day and Dorothy Howell. We paid no attention to the food that we before us as we went ahead talking, and then we started to the left which was our well known friend, John Timothy. When he arose to speak we involuntarily gasped with admiration, for John was a very striking looking man. He was tall and straight with an air of assurance about him some- what dlfferent from' the quiet, bashful, self-conscious boy of High School days. He told us that he had never married, and was an i children. Not bad Elouise! When Wanda Parris rose to speak she told us that she had won Sam Brotton from Nelline Know- les, and that they were living in Kansas City, where Wanda had made 3 Sl1CCESSfUl mllSlC lf6Zl.Ch8I', while Sam was a football coach in that city. Margaret Lee Burton was still living in Eufaula, had a number of Beauty Shoppes in the state. She was a good advertiser, because she always dressed in the latest die- tations from Paris, and her hair 'i was always arranged in the latest styles. Mary Hansbro had finally suc- ,ceeded in winning the Indian boy whom she had longed for. She told us that she was a tap dancer and had her own troupe of followers. v good looks and fascinating waysi had done much for him while in high school, but now they were do-r ing wonders.
