THE BLUE AND GOLD making the hens believe there are two days in twenty-four hours. As a result the hens are laying twice as many eggs and the families are considering buying :i new areoplane in order to spend their vast wealth. As we were leaving the hotel the clerk called to us, and there stood Allen Moyer, owner nl the hotel. He said that two of the federal detectives were in the lobby and he thought we would like to sec them. We were certainly surprised to see Gertrude Drais and Dorothy liiler of F. H. S. '21. That evening we failed to catch our regular aircraft because we felt we couldn't miss hearing Ruth VVisner give her stump speech on tVhy W'omeu Should Do As They Please. lt was a wonderful speech. I would not have missed hearing it for anything. In New York we went to the Art 'Gallery to see Leonard Smith's masterpiece, The Sunset. I al- ways knew Leonard would make a name for himself. Our business finished, we starte'd back for dear old Findlay. How I longed to get back and find the rest of the class of '.21. We alighted from our plane at the Findlay Grand Aero Station, Dr. Dukes took me to the General Office, where our old friend Gerald Hendricks was giving information as of old. He gave me a copy of the Air Traffic Laws and said Joe Mitchell had the day before been lined S100 for spee'ding in a cross current of air and not stopping when Air Cop Grooms lired his gun. Mr. Hendricks pointed out to me the managers office thinking I might be glad to meet again Irma Dice, for that is who it turned out to he. With her was her secretary, Miss Donna Carter. The first thing I wanted to see. now that I was back, was the school and football field. NVhen we turned the Court House corner a lump came into my throat. The familiar building of my school days was gone, and in its place was the modern one we had prayed for way back in our senior year. It is a mammoth building, occupying almost a block and has all the latest improvements. The superintendent is Virgil Barger. In his otfice I found that some of the class have returned to teach in this new l . H. S. They were Mary McCartney, Spanish teacher, Lorine Moore, who used to teach for Miss Hill occasionally has charge of the French now, Grace Rinehart is doing her best to teach the pupils to tight Caesar's Gallic Wars. Mabel Tucker is teaching Domestic Science. I was also informed that Anna Dunford tried to secure Miss Mills' position as A. Y. Z. instructor, but Miss Mills would not give it up, so Anna is teaching in Blue Pigeon which has grown to the size of Mortimer. Mildred Meeks is Music Instructor, but her orchestra is not able to surpass that of '.?1. The girls' basket-ball team is ably coached by Mary Palmer, whom we met as she was coming out of the building with Harry Shaffer, the boys' coach and military instructor. They took us to dine in the school lunch room which is in charge of Lenna Foreman an'd Iva Grossman. I was told that Frances Fuller was at the head of the kindergarten department located on the west side of the building. After finishing our tour of the building, we started for the Athletic Field, where another shock awaited me. The Blanchard River which had afforded us so much pleasure. was gone. Lionel NVas I hack in the hospital. No, all that was left was the bathing beach at the park, of which Ruth Baker had charge. Dr. Dukes said that since the mayor. Richard Martz, had been in office he had with the help of the State Waterways Director, Cecil Woodward, finally succee'ded in getting an appropriation to straighten the channel of the river and prevent future floods. The ball Field had been improved until it is now one of the best in Northern Ohio. Its improve- ments were planned and supervised by Don Fellabaum. On my way back to the City Hall to see the Chief of Police, Clyde Chain. and the truant officer, Annabel Barnhart, I bought a newspaper from the News Stand in front of Clyde Radabauglrs grocery. It turned out to be the paper of Clarence Fox, of which he is owner and editor, calleld the Foxy News. The personnel of staff includes Mary Teatsorth, Society Editor, Lucy Fox has charge of the Out in the Country column which rivals Nelda Geary's Over the L'ity g Helen Sterling takes care of the Want Adsg june Slagle contributes parodies on famous poems, and Marguerite Gaines writes appreciations on the Great Men of Today. She has just finished one of james Bope. Both the young ladies have pub- lished their works in book form. I discovered while riding through the town that many of the beautiful houses had been erected hy the firm of Burson, Roberts an'd Norris. Again it was the class of '21 that improved the town. Cloyce Norris plans the houses, NVilbur Burson superintends the building, and Harold Roberts does the repair work after they are finished. Then I rode down Main street. XVas the town owned by the class of '2l? It seemed so. There was Gineth Steen's confectionery shop with Ida Mae Rudolph posing as the French Chef and turning out the best French pastry I have ever eaten. Mabel Spangler is in charge of the High School girls who serve the hungry public.. A little further down the street was the Imperial Movie Theatre, man- aged by Marie VValters. It is a wonderful experience to go there as you have the speaking and silent drama all in one. A new invention has been ma'de whereby the actors which are being shown on the screen, speak. Fern Williams is hired to censor the pictures before they are shown. Norman and Leon Blackman's Dog and Pony Show was scheduled for the matinee on the day 1 attended. Next to the theatre was the Long, Binkley and Johnson Ready to VVear Store. Helen Long and Lillian Johnson have charge of the ready-to-wear, an'd Rowie Binkley supervises the millinery depart- ment. In the Haberdashery and Barber Shop of Hugh McKay an'd Howard Henderson, I met Harold Eckhardt, who is manager of the Buckeye Traction Ditcher. He buys all his material from Raymond George, who is connected with the Bethlehem Steel Company. Across the street from the Barber'Shop the large departvnnt store owned and managed by Harold Burket and Violet Hutch. Some of their efficient clerks are: Ruth Reed, head of the glove department: Opal Fickle, notions, Doris Sharp, men's furnishings: Fern Hosman and Regina Blankenhorn have charge of the household supplies. Q Near the department store isrthe sign rea'ding Cosmetic and Hair Dye t'o. ln charge of a Specialist. The specialists are Caroline McMurray and tlertrude Wilbur. l feel quite certain they are :i big Success for I knew them when they did business on a smaller and more private scale. . The City Dairy is in the hands of Helen Huffman and tfharlotte Gerlinger, They keep the babies supplied with milk from the farm of Eugene Krouse who lives just outside the city limits nf Mortimer. 'Oh, how I have enjoyed finding all my old friends. But am l going crazy again? I have just let Mike Crohen sell me a section of the Main Street lVood Block Pavement. -FRANCES lf. FULLER, 'l1.
