The next thing that attracted our attention was the football season. Both the boys made the team, and Elmer Christensen was chosen on the county All- Star team. VVe were well represented in track as well as basketball and other activities. The girls also did their share in school athletics. It has been the custom for Senior classbs to take charge of Christmas dances. In accordance with the custom we took charge this year. The dance was a success in every way. W ' Commencement is now receiving our full attention, but we sigh a whopper of a sighy' as we think of leaving dear old F. U. H. S., where we have spent the most enjoyable days of our life 1 1.

6. THE FATE OF THE SENIORS. Oh where, Oh where, have my classmates gone Oh where, Oh where, can they be? I'll go and ask the magic man Their steps in life to see. The minute I looked in that great round ball A sight came to my eyes. There was Lucille Kelly upon the stage, In a great big opera hall. Then next came Lois in grim despair, With a rolling pin in handg She had her husband dancing round, In time to her rolling pin band. Oh and there was Del. in a maid's costume, NVith breakfast tray in hand. She waits upon the Presidenfs wife, As nice as e'er she can. And then the next thing that I saw VVas a house full of splendor and fame. An old man's darling owned them all, Florinda was her name. Oh, and there was Lawrence Cummings, A barber of great renown. A-shaving whiskers and cutting hair Off men around the town. The next brought horror to my eye, For there was Marie so fair, A-making pills full of poison For people in despair. Then what should appear but a dear old maid With white morning cap so stiff. I looked again and then I saw It was dear little Margaret Smith. An old maid schoolma'm next I see With etiquette book in hand. It was no one else but E. Slingsby, Who was teaching away down in Alabam 16
