jEvrflectiiB 1324 (Ulciss ntpltcrg As we stare into the depths of the future, our imagination pictures our classmates in different walks of life, according to our knowlerge of them as members of the Class of '24.

Ah, the Comedian is Louis Morinere with Freeda Moder as his leading lady. Of course there are bathing beauties, (a comedy isn,t a comedy without a troupe of balh ng beauties who stay away from the water) We recognize some of them as old classmates. They are Agnes Sparano, Anna Evans, and Mildred Hazlett., Frank Kreaps was the villian. We enjoyed the comedy as Louis is so realistic that it reminds us of our school days. The next thing flashed on the silver sheet is a seiiall, one of those hair-raising spectacles, written by Ellis Haislip, The poor heroine (and that was still more exciting when we found her to be Christine Wilson) is on the top of a fast moving train, which being on flip, is pursued by the villian Farmer Williams, and his accomplice Doris Monks.. All seems doomed for the heroine when out of the clear sky comes the rescuing hero, George Wachter. in an airoplane and snatched his fair lady from the clutches of the villian who was so sure of getting her..

Julia Lucas is accompanying her as she is to become the Secretary for the Prince of Wales. They were always good pals, and had to go abroad together. That ends the programme so Aimee, Marie and I leave feeling that we are very well informed concerning the old Classmates. The Motion pictures certainly are wonderful and we thanked them for the information we had just received. A. W. K —M. W. 1 . —G. W: S: ’24 “THE COURSE OF TRUE LOVE” (The experience of many Senior Boys) “She was a blushing country lass, And he. a farmer lad. They both to school did daily go, And each meeting made them glad. But ere the time did pass away, Their meetings were less few, For of him she soon did tire, And w:fh him would have aught to do. The weary lad kept plodding on, His past love to regain. But cruelly Fate did with him play, Mis eff orts were in vain Thi.u many months the poor lad toiled, And everyday grew graver. But she, of anoother fonder grew Who’d give his life to save her. But fickle was the newer love. And from the lass did wonder: The poor girl’s heart did heavy grow. Her plans were wrought asunder. Time passed on as e’er before, Forgotten were the lovers, In opposite pathways each did turn, Their tho’ts were e’er of others. But again the pang of love returned. And with it the lad grew bolder, As a modern Apollo, speaks to his love, Such were the stories he told her. Then Cupid did pierce her heart cruelly. And to the dear lad did she flee, So we find that each who desperately tries To him in the end comes the Victory.” L. M. B. ‘24.
