FAREWELL TO GARFIELD In a few days the high nines are leaving Garfield. We are going to a new school, where we will meet new friends and teach- ers. We shall never forget Garfield, though, and the friends we made there. We hope to make records next year, and all of the years to come, of which Garfield and our faculty will be proud. Our teams have played those of other schools, and have taken their victories and defeats in a sportsmanlike manner. They have always played fairly. Like these we will be fair about everything. As they have lost games so will we lose the things we have worked for, but like them we will be brave and try again. Look at our prophecy! There are among our number budding artists of every des- cription. In nineteen thirty-five, you will be looking at great pictures, hearing great singers, and reading great books for which the high nines of 1925 will be responsible. We have great explorers and discoverers in our group. Time will tell. Therefore with such promises and hopes for the future, we will leave Garfield, with the resolve always to do our best, and no one can do more. Wherever we go we will remember our Junior High School Days. Deep in our hearts, we will be faith- ful to the Orange and White, and watch her victories with pleasure. Edwina Putnam. HIGH NINE PROPHECY I went to see the movies on a summer afternoon, And listened to the orchestra drone out a sleepy tune, Then snuggled back into my chair prepared to have a treat, And see Tom Mix do horseback tricks and watch him keep his seat. But when I glanced up at the screen, imagine my surprise ! The future of my schoolmates was unrolled before my eyes. I saw them as they will appear when twenty years ensue. And as it was revealed to me, I ' ll tell it now to you. REEL ONE Vivian Best On the stage she ' ll dance and sing. Turn somersaults and everything. Jean Crawford A sweet Salvation Army lass, For nickels and dimes her hat she ' ll pass. Edna Caflisch A secretary she will be. And do the work of two or three.
