Through the Years . . . 1 he life of a student as he travels down the years ith all its joys and griefs, with all its laughs, and fears. Has been written in poems, has been sung in song, and verse Has been written into novels, and the movies—even worse. So why should we, who have no claim to literary fame. lake on a job that has been done by those who have the name? They’ve done it sad. they’ve done it glad, and every other way, So what is left for those who know not even what to say? But let us try, at any rate, to see what we can do And take a look at our school life as it looks to me and you. hirst things first, and so we went to school at the age of six And started in the lowest grade to begin to learn the tricks. Readin’, ’ritin’. ’rithmetic, the simplest form you know And drawing things and cutting-out and now and then a show. Then on we went to second grade, and then the third and fourth. And learned such things as geography, east, west, and north. The fifth and sixth were harder still, with other studies new. History, science, social stuff! What they did to me and you! Then came that great and fateful day. when we—both you and 1 Quit our roles of grade school kids—we now were Junior High. Classes came in different rooms, with different teachers, too. But studies also got quite hard, and sometimes left us blue. But on we worked and finally made the ninth or freshman year And joined the band, played some ball, and yelled with each school cheer. General science, typing, shop, were among the subjects new The girls were learning how to cook, and couples paired off. too. 1 he sophomore year was next in line, with more and different things Htr boys were Varsity players now—other things a new year brings. Other things we think of, now and then, remember, too. What better records we would make, could we begin anew! Our junior year brought more new work, responsibility, too We ran the paper, gave our play, (the stars were me and you) Oh. yes, we held offices—and positions, we surely had them. Organizations, group, and class ran on our enthusiasm. The senior year—then at last, the ladder’s top was won The days went by and finally we reached that last big one Graduation filled our life, it soaked through every pore It swelled through our entire day. and there was even more. e could look back on our whole school life, and stop to think awhile And maybe frown a little, and yes. perhaps smile. The frowns of course, for moments lost when we were not too bright Rut smiles come through when we can see. it all came out all right. —Pi. E. Hathaway.

Looking- hack across a span of 12 years, back to the good old days of 1937, we find nine of our present class. Ruby Moore, Zuma Roberts, Patricia Bur- key, Janice Habel, Gerald Snyder, Robert Putman. Dorothy Snyder, Harold Martin and Betty Shipman, shyly entering the first grade of Fulton School. Miss Lucille Grime started us on our ABCs and Miss Hope Varner con- tinued the process through the second grade. Miss Thelma Luke was our guiding star through the third and fourth grades. During our third year in school our membership was increased by the enrollment of Dolores Schmitz, from Utah School. After the fourth grade, we graduated into the upper story of the school building, which was a big advancement: twenty-two steps, to be exact. Miss Marjorie Hutchinson, who later became Mrs. Weber, was our patient helper during our fifth year. In the sixth grade we were guided by Mrs. Mar- guerita Mires. Although we were somewhat confused by the changing of classes, we managed to struggle through the seventh grade. During this year Claude Simon, from Assumption, joined our class. Our eighth year in school was a busy one because of our eagerness to be eligible for high school. After the excitement of initiation we resumed our duties as Freshmen. ith Harold Martin as president of our class and Mrs. Mack as adviser, our first year in high school was a successful and enjoyable one. The outstand- ing event of the year was a one-act play entitled “Elmer,” which we pre- sented for an assembly program and a P. T. A. meeting. Betty Shipman was our class president during our Sophomore and Junior years and Mrs. Mack remained our class adviser during that period. Our Junior class play. “The Daffy Dills.” was given on April 23, 1948, and was very successful under the direction of Mrs. Mack and Mr. Gens. During this year we also purchased our class rings from the Herff-Jones Company, and to draw the year to a successful close we chose for our theme “In An Old Fashion Garden” what proved to be a beautiful one for our (r.-Sr. Banquet held on May 15. Next we found ourselves electing the following officers during our Senior year: Janice Habel—President, Robert Putman—Vice President, Zuma Roberts—Secretary and Treasurer, Dorothy Snyder and Marion Dowling— Cabinet Members, and Mr. McLemore as our faithful adviser. We had our pictures taken at Northland Studios and spent a very enjoyable day touring through the Toledo Blade, and WSPD. We chose for our class play, a three act play entitled “Aunt Tillie Goes To Town.” given on November 5 under the direction of Miss Stoneczek and Mr. McLemore. Also during the year we purchased our invitations from the Smithcraft Company. Last Will and Testament of the Senior Class of 1949 . . . We, the Senior Class of 1949, Fulton Centralized School, of the city of Swanton, county of Fulton, and state of Ohio, being of sound mind and memory, do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking any will or wills heretofore made by us. First, to the teachers, we bequeath our gratitude for their guidance throughout our twelve years of school. Second, to our janitor, Mr. Britegan. we leave the school house, trusting that once more on the first day of school, it will look like a school. Third, to the Juniors, we will our lockers. Fourth, to the Sophomores, we will our seats in English class. Fifth, to the Freshmen, we will our ability to behave in class. Sixth, Claude Simon wills his wavy hair to Mike Martin, in order to save him the price of a “Toni.” Seventh, Dorothy Snyder wills her ability to square dance to Jean Bryan, with the understanding that he will make good use of it. Eighth, Janice Habel wills her editorship to Bob Dowling, trusting that his hair will not turn gray. Ninth. Marion Dowling wills her height to Mary Utz, hoping she will add a few inches. Tenth. Bud Putman wills his athletic ability to Wayne Watson, knowing that he will graduate from manager to the varsity team. Eleventh, Harold Martin wills his seat in the bus to Marvin Shipman, knowing that he will have as much fun sitting with Carol Huber as he did. Twelfth. Betty Shipman wills her personality to Lloyd Poorman, hoping he will not be so shy. Thirteenth, Dolores Schmitz wills her ability to get along with Red-heads to Tom Mizer, with high hopes that he makes better progress with that cer- tain Red-head. Fourteenth, Pat Burkey wills her ability to get a ride home every night to )ane Parker, certain that it will save her a little shoe leather. Fifteenth, Gerald Snyder wills his shortness to Kenny Strong, with the understanding that he will strike a happy medium. Sixteenth, Ruby Moore wills her ability to play ping-pong to Murle Wea- ver. so that she may some day become a national champion in table tennis. Seventeenth, Zuma Roberts wills her ability to type a flawless (?) stencil for the “Echo” to Joyce Rardin, knowing that the “Echo” will be an even better one. In Witness Whereof, We. the Senior Class of 1949, the testators, have set our hand and seal hereto this twenty-seventh day of May in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and forty-nine (1949). The Senior Class of 1949 (Seal). Signed, sealed, published and declared as and for their last will and testa- ment by the Senior Class of 1949. the above-named testators, in the presence of us, at their request and in the presence of them and of each other, have subscribed our names hereto as witnesses on the day and year last aforesaid. Ella Caroline Hallet. V. V. Griesinger. A Bite of the Future There was no avoiding the issue any longer. I simply had to visit a dentist. But what dentist? After all, when one needs a denture repaired, he can’t trust just anyone. Having been gone from Ai for several years. I hadn’t kept up with the various local professional men and their abilities. A friend told me of one in Metamora who was supposed to be accjuainted with all the latest developments in dentistry. In fact, he was becoming known as the atomic scientist of the dental profession. It seems that he had per- fected radio-active dentures which produced rejuvenation of the patient’s mouth. Two people who wore his dentures were reported to have been so benefited by them that they actually sprouted second sets of permanent teeth. After hearing these wonderful reports, to Dr. Claude Simon I went. He repaired my upper plate very well. Of course, when old friends meet, one of the easiest ways to keep up con- versation is to trade information about mutual friends and acquaintances. One advantage of false teeth is that no matter what has to be done with them, the owner can keep talking. W’e have both become enthusiastic television fans and compared notes on favorite programs. On one thing we agree heartily. That is what a wonderful thing Dorothy Snyder is doing with her pro- grams. She has become a leading authority on electronic cookery. She appears every week on television, demonstrating methods and giving recipes. These programs, along with her articles in magazines and newspapers, have revolutionized the life of many housewives. The changes twenty years have brought are astounding. None of us is surprised, however, that Betty Shipman composes large choral works and conducts a large choir. Her third concert in Carnegie Hall, in which she conducted three of her own compositions, brought such favorable comment from the critics, and such an enthusiastic response from the audience, that she started her second world tour with her chorus of seventy-five voices. Of course she took her hats with her. She makes them for a hobby, and has designed some striking creations for every one of our ten best-dressed women. I could never afford one, for 1 never seemed to have one hundred twenty-five dollars which I could spend for even one of Betty’s simpler hats. The class of 1949 seems to have developed a great deal of musical talent, for not only have we enjoyed Betty’s concerts, but we have also been literally transported by the clarinet artistry of Ruby Moore. It is reallv thrilling to hear what she makes her clarinet do. Not only has she become a great artist on her instrument, but she has invented a new type. She became so impatient waiting for ber clarinet to be repaired when she was a Senior in high school, that she resolved that such a thing wouldn’t happen again. She set up a A Bite of the Future (Continued) workshop and began taking the instruments apart and putting them together again. She used all her spare time that way, and went about getting all the information she could. As a result, she has revolutionized the clarinet. Her instrument is so unusual she has bequeathed it to the Smithsonian Institute. Claude informed me that supersonic aviation has received a helping hand from Marian Dowling. Not only has she made some spectacular flights, but she has taught many others most of what they know in that field. She gave last year’s Bendix winner his final instruction. Experienced fliers go to her for extra pointers all the time. Janice Mabel, it seems, has become an authority on psychology and philosophy. She has written a number of books, that latest of which is “The Art of Faking Your Time.” She has become so influential that the new fad, “slow vacations ’ is attributed to her. W e may zip through the air almost as fast as light when we’re bound for work, but more and more of us are taking the older, slower means of travel when we vacation. The slowest way to travel was employed by Dolores Schmitz and her hus- band. Dolores married a wealthy Texas oil man. Claude told me that last summer they decided to take a vacation which would mix business and pleas- ure. They went by ox cart exploring the wilds of Mexico for new oil de- posits. 1 hey found some, too, but they were gone four months. How slow can one go? Patricia Burkey has taken on a new interest. I was delighted when I used my new stationery a few years ago. and found that the glue on the envelopes was flavored strawberry, raspberry, cherry, orange, lemon, and lime—each flavor on a separate envelope, of course. Since she came out with that idea, people have been writing more letters than ever before. She sold these six delicious flavors, along with spearmint, doublemint, and juicy fruit, to the United States Post Office for use on stamps and stamped envelopes. She then turned to this other activity. She is once more interested in mer- chandising. Not only does she head a school in store methods, but she also has an experimental store in which she tries out new ideas. Her latest in- novation is new to this generation, though not entirely so to us old timers. She has placed clerks at a few of the sections in the grocery department. It adds a personal touch and the customers seem to like it. It is catching on. and already clerks are appearing in a few grocery departments in regular stores. Claude, having repaired my denture (not my two front teeth). I finally left after taking too much of his valuable time. A Bite of the Future (Continued) acation time was coming, and after making certain inquiries, I found that I could spend two weeks loafing on the island called Yap. I’d always wanted to, after learning about it away back in the fall of 1 )48. Janice’s idea of a slow vacation seemed a good one, so I started to Yap on a tramp steamer. 1 he trip was uneventful, except that the owner happened to be aboard. He, too, was going to Yap. but not for a vacation. It was nice to see Gerald Snyder again, and even nicer to learn that he is so successful in an interesting occupation. He owns a fleet of tramp steamers and is really cashing in on slow vacations. His ships travel the seven seas just to take people to places they’ve never seen before, or. having seen before, want to see again. Gerald suggested that I plan to stay at a certain resort hotel while on Yap. By a strange coincidence, my reservation was for that hotel. Gerald told me it is the best of several on the island. On reaching the island. I found that it is built up considerably, seeminglv planned exclusively for vacationers. Changes have evidently been made since we studied about it. The hotel is excellent. Imagine my amazement when I learned that the owner of this beautiful place is none other than Bud Put- man. It seems that he and Gerald have some sort of partnership which is working out well for both of them. Bud told me that Zuma Roberts first interested him in the project. Zuma is a world traveler. She became fascinated by the Polynesians and has made an exhaustive study of their culture and languages.’ On one of her brief visits to Ai after she had done considerable work in this field, she met Bud. Her glowing account of the tropical islands and their people interested him. He visited a few of the islands, and liked them so well that lie’s still there. Bud told me of Harold Martin’s latest venture. Harold had been in the wholesale grocery business. While busy with that lie had come up with an invention. It is a device that can be attached to the top of frozen foods. Then the whole thing is inverted, and before you know it. the food is cooked. It became such a success that it threatened to make the cooking range ob- solete. As a consequence, the whole range industry is indignant. Harold decided to leave the United States and develop the possibilities in China, lie hasn t been there long, but already more of those people are using his product than ever dreamed of frozen foods before he arrived. Harold usually goes back and forth between China and the United States by the fastest means possible, because he makes the trip frequently. The last time he went to China, however, lie was on a slow boat. My jaw feels peculiar. It feels like a new tooth coming through. Do you suppose Dr. Simon’s radio-active repair work is getting more results? —Mrs. Verna Shaver.

After a seemingly short vacation, the Sophomores returned to Fulton to start a new year. They had an addition to our class in the form of Boh Cole, a boy from Michigan. We chose the following officers: President .................................. Hob Cole Vice President ...................... Kathleen Rardin Secretary and Treasurer ................ Carol Huber News Reporter .......................... Ilena Borck Cabinet Members....................... Phyllis Burkey Tom Mizer Adviser .............................. Miss Stoneczek The first happening of the year was a class hay ride. We took a picnic lunch along and went to Swanton Park to enjoy it. In December. Michigan reclaimed the new member. Bob Cole, and so the class enrollment was reduced to eleven. A Christmas party at the school was another event in December. We danced, played games, and prepared our refreshments in the kitchen. On January 6, Ilena Borck was “sweet sixteen” and her family invited the Sophomores to a surprise birthday party in her honor. She was sur- prised and a happy time was enjoyed by all. The class gave its assembly program in March. The boys gave a short skit entitled, “Boyhood Friends,” and the girls gave a one-act play entitled, “Our American Girls.” We enjoyed working on them and it gave us exper- ience that we will be able to use next year for our class play. Also in March was the Fulton County Music Festival. Several Sopho- mores participated: four girls and one boy sang in the Glee Clubs and three girls played in the Band.

During the year several of the children had birthday parties at their homes, where they had many good times. We had a Christmas party and a Valentine party at school. New pupils who came from away were Raymond and Margaret Jones, Janet Sensabaugh and Robert Gillen. We have enjoyed our supervised noons and recesses in the gym. where the boys and girls learned how to play basketball. We have also enjoyed our ping-pong games in the lower hall and the merry go-round in the garage, especially since we helped to earn it ourselves. The hot lunches were especially appreciated. But our story is not all parties and play. We have worked hard at our lessons and civic duties for the community. We helped with the magazine sale to the amount of $68.75. The pupils received individual prizes for selling subscriptions. We sold tickets on the radio for the Seniors and our Junior Red Cross contributions amounted to $11.33. We packed four Junior Red Cross Boxes for over-seas school children. Our Echo subscriptions amounted to $14.90. The March of Dimes contribution from our pupils was $6.28. We sold seeds again this year. This money is used to buy indoor bats and balls for spring practice. We also solicited for P. T. A. memberships. One week we sold assorted cards. Each child received some reward for selling, either a Testament, a Bible, or Bible story book, all of which were very nice. It gives us a feeling of pride to be able to assist our community and ourselves. We gave our assembly program the third week of February. We helped with the community Christmas program, too. We feel this year has been crammed with happy times of study, work, play, and assistance to others.

The Third and Fourth grades began the year of 1948-49 with thirty-eight pupils, fifteen girls and twenty-three boys. We had twenty-one pupils in the Fourth grade and seventeen in the Third grade. Two of the boys in the Fourth grade were new pupils—Paul Sensabaugh from Swanton, and Dennis Donavan from Toledo. In October we gained a new girl in the Third grade— Nancy Jones from Toledo. Besides our regular school work we have done many extra things to aid in our civic duties. First in October, we secured “Echo” subscriptions. Quentin Burkey won first prize and Dicky Owens, third prize. We also sold sub- scriptions for magazines to help raise money for new playground equipment. (We now have a new merry-go-round.) In November we sold tickets on a radio that the Seniors gave away at a basketball game. In February we sold P. T. A. memberships. Quentin Burkey received first prize and we had seven pupils tie for second and three for third prize. During the year we did our bit as good citizens by contributing very gen- erously to the Junior Red Cross and the March of Dimes drives. We also packed seven Christmas boxes to send to children in Europe. We have also had our share of sickness this year. Three were out a week or more with tonsil operations; Linda Elliott, Diane Patty and Billy Bratton. Allan Vaughn was out nearly two weeks with an eye injury. We have had our good times this year. In October we had our Halloween party with costumes, prizes and refreshments. In December, we had our Christmas party, with a tree and exchange of gifts. In February we had a Valentine party with very pretty individual Valentine boxes made by the children. Then in April, we all enjoyed our egg hunt at Easter-time. In December we worked very hard to get ready for our assembly, which was December 23. We gave a short play. “The Christmas Fairy and Scrooge,” besides several other numbers. We have had a very good year and we hope that we’ll all be back next year. First and Second Grades . . .

The first day of this school year found thirty-nine boys and girls in the First and Second grade room. There were four girls and fourteen boys in the First and eight girls and thirteen boys in the Second grade. However, the first week of school had not been completed when we re- ceived word that Harold Bloomer of the First grade had polio. We were all sad to hear this. We decided that we would each bring some toy to put in a box so that his hours of sickness would pass faster. We received a very nice thank-you letter from Harold’s mother. He was able to visit us at our Halloween party and soon after this he started coming to school half days, and finally full days. Our first party was at Halloween. We certainly had some cpteer looking people in our room that day. We also had visitors—mothers, brothers and sisters. At Thanksgiving time we gave the chapel program, in which all of us took part. We didn’t have a Thanksgiving party. Christmas was the next big party. We were excited for weeks ahead of time. We all helped to dec- orate the tree and make the other decorations for the room. After Christmas vacations it was soon time to make Valentines. Some of our Valentines that we made were very nice. We learned about Lincoln and Washington during February and made log cabins and hatchets. For St. Patrick’s Day we all wore a little green. Did you see our big cot- ton lambs at Easter-time? We made them ourselves. We decorated eggs, of course, most of them got cracked. Best of all we learned the real reason for Easter. In May we entertained our mothers. We exhibited some of our work for the year and had a program in which everyone took part. We have had a lot of fun this year. We have learned more about flowers, food, birds, turtles, frogs, bees and ants. We have written original stories and illustrated our poems. We have celebrated our birthdays. We watched a daffodil grow, our fish eat. and we learned to work and play together. A lot of us missed school in February because of flu and chicken pox. We have had a very busy year. We need our summer vacation, but we’re all looking forward to another happy year beginning next fall. ORGANIZATIONS Echo and Annual Staff . . . SEATED: Zuma Roberts, Patricia Burkey, Janice 1 label.
