So, in the spring of 1945 I started from Portland. I changed cars at Seattle, and the first person I saw was Louise Erickson. She was standing near theiticket office and I walked up to her and said, Hello . She was as surprised to see me as I had been to see her. She said she was just going to take a trip to San Francisco, later going to Honolulu, where she was intending to teach foreign languages. Her life- long friend, Edna Vandenberg, was also going to Honolulu, where she was to become head nurse of the Soldiers' Hospital. I had to run to catch my train but I succeeded in buying the Seattle Times . After I had found a seat and become settled I started to read the paper. In the first column I read about the great naturalist, Clara Jensen, who was going to Peru. As an assistant she was taking Thora Malmer. In the lower right hand corner, I was surprised to see a clever cartoon with another school1nate's name on it. This was Isabelle Gray. On the editorial page I noticed that the editor was Alice Schwartz. In the poet's corner was a cute little poem called Dreams by Dolores Alexander. In the stage column I read about Ruth Simpson, whowas taking the leading part in a comedy being given at the Star Theater, which was owned by Amy Tuller. I was sorry I couldn't stay in Seattle to see Ruth act, but I had to start at once for New York. I put the paper away and glanced down the aisle, and who should I see but Helen Shere. She was talking and laughing with a man who was sit- ting beside her. They looked so happy together I decided that they must have been married and were on their honeymoon. She glanced in my direc- tion and recognized me, said something to the man, stood up and made her way up the aisle to me. In our conversaiton I learned that she and her banker husband were celebrating their tenth anniversary instead of being on their honeymoon, and they were still happy. I learned that she had married a cousin of Edith Hanke's. Edith was now teaching millinery in Los Angeles Polytechnic Schools. Viola Fuhrer was teaching History there. Helen also told me that Viola Fuhrer's two friends, Donella Hadley, and Margaret Brugger, had become missionaries and were now in India. Helen had to leave me at Spokane, so our visit was soon over. It was two days later that I reached New York. I found that my boat would not leave until two the next day so I prepared to stay over night. I stayed at the Sicilia. Hotel, which was owned by none other than Rosina Sicilia. She happened to be at Palm Beach for the opening of her new hotel, so I was not able to see her. After dinner, I decided to go to a circus that had just come to the city. It was owned by the Bolliger Sisters, P. B. CAsE W. j. HANSEN TIGARD SERVICE GARAGE SALES ssizvics ACCESSORIES, TIRES, GASOLINE, OILS HUDSON, ESSEX TIGARD, OREGON Y THE POLYTECHNIC-MAID 19 Lily and Erna. At first I couldn't place them, but at last I decided they must be my old schoolmates. IYhen I arrived I was surprised to find the following attractions: Rose Deardorff. trapeze performer: Leola Down- ing, fortune teller: Elvessie Gregory, tight rope walker: Dorothy McIntyre, lion tamer: Jennie Linn, dog trainer: Irene Vickers, living skeletong Mae Teegarden, fattest lady in the world, and Mary Shevick, clown. I decided to have my fortune told and soon discovered that Leola had certainly mastered the art as she knew more about me than I did myself. After this I looked up Ellen Schultz, the world's shortest lady, and a special feature of the show. I asked her what she had been doing since she left school and as I remembered a little of the shorthand Miss McCain had tried so hard to impress upon my mind, I am able to repeat Ellen's exact words. This is what shesaid: Irene Vickers and I, traveling to- gether with the Circus, have been able to go from city to city and in this manner meet many of the girls we used to go to Poly with. Once when we were in New York at a fashionable restaurant for lunch, we ran right into Antoinette XYeaver. Vie learned that the four children sitting by her were hers. They seemed to be just as disobedient as their mother was when she was a girl. She told us she had been married to Gwendolyn IYendeborn's brother for five years. She said she had had quite a lot of trouble keeping her cooks. Her last four we learned to be Alice Emerson, Elizabeth Graves, Mable Okuda and -Iosephine Amato. To our surprise they were the same girls we used to go to 'Dear Old Poly' with, and all four were widows. just then two waitresses came in. Both were chewing gum. One was Lola lilosser and the other Lauree Hinshaw. VVe were surprised to hear that Rose Malsey and Margaret Isenberg had become secretaries in a large banking concern, the manager being Florence Hansen. It was getting late but Ellen went on with her story: It was time for us to leave, so we asked them all to visit us before we left the city. It was rather late so we hurried to catch a car when Irene slipped on a banana peel which had been thrown away by one of Bertha Chundelak's children just ahead of us. Irene fell against a woman carry- ing a large bundle of clothes. After she pulled her hat from over her eyes, we recognized it to be Louise Hush. She was a washerwoman carrying washing to Della Campbell, who was married, living in a fashionable part of town, and had a Star car all her own. NVe hurried on to the Circus and started working. IYhen we had finished our performance, people came to us and congratulated us on our excellent work. Among these were Carolyn Bradley, Mildred Hegen and Izola lfllack, teachers at Polytechnic schools. Margaret Berger and Gladys Clark were History teachers at Lincoln High School. Olive Collinge had dyed her hair black and was on the stage as a chorus girl at the Baker. Mildred Gilbride was her partner. After we , A M.Frutiger I Dairy Hillsdale, Ure. - ' 'I Home of Quality Milk Atwater 2185 20 THE POLYTECHNIC MAID had talked to them for some time, we bade them farewell, for we were going to the beach for a vacation in another day. We reached our destination with very little annoyance or trouble, but when we reached our hotel we heard a loud cry for Mama! We turned around to see Monica Ruhl and Clara Brown pulling their children apart. While we were registering we saw a familiar name above ours, Miss Agnes Sherman. Of course we knew she was not yet married as she was a toe dancer at one of the New York Theaters. We hurried into our bathing suits when there came a knock at the door. Wle opened it but were disap- pointed to see only our maids, who were Anna Spitulski and Gertrude Doehlerf' As she concluded her story Ellen told me she had been so busy working since that time, that she hadn't seen anyone else. So about mid- night I went back to my hotel and prepared to leave New York the follow- ing afternoon. The next morning I decided to take an airplane trip over the city. Mary Gudge was now the owner of the largest airplane field in the United States. Eva Hesgard, who was the most reliable aviatrix on the field, took me for a long trip over the metropolis. In the afternoon I found my way to the dock and took the steamer VVyss , named after Elma, who had married the President of the United States. The owners of this big steamer were Bernice VVinters and Mildred Hegen. In the dining room of the ship I found Leona Luke and Beulah Holfert, who were going to London as private detectresses for the Queen of France. Kathryn Bresney, the noted model, who had been visiting in America, was on board too. Also on the' boat to entertain us was the Kenner quartet. The pianist and director was Ervena herself. The singers were Bertha Smith, Ida Bran- denburg, Helen Hawley, and Margaret Brugger. The world's greatest saxophone player, Misao Koboyashi, was also with them. VVhen I left the steamer at London, I met Dorothy Bang, who was the American consul there. She was glad to see me and said that one of my old friends, Viola Hansen, was making a tour of Europe as a singer. I left London and went to VVales just in time to see the wedding of Lela Rue to the Prince of YVales. After the wedding I went to Paris. After I arrived in Paris I went to a hotel, where I found Anita Neuman, who was the American ambassador to France. The next day I decided to go to a modiste and have a real Paris gown. A French lady told me where to go and to my surprise, it was my old friend, Ruth Nelson. She told me her friend, Hazel Stevens, was a dancing teacher in the city. It took Ruth only a day to make my dress, which showed she had improved since her school days. I decided to have my hair shampooed and marcelled so Ruth recommended Lucille DuHaimeis Beauty Parlor. VVhile I was in Lucille's shop, Bernice Benson, the lady who created all the styles during 1940 and 1944 came in. She was wearing her dresses up to her knees with a long train behind, short sleeves and very high starched collar. The dress was elaborately decorated with embroidery. She wore long earrings, and her hair had been grown out and done up in a funny little knot on top of her head. She was still wearing bangs which helped me remember the dear old Bernice that everyone liked so well. With her was a famous comedienne, Ruby Norwood. During my stay in Paris a champion tennis game was held. I was glad to hear that the winner was NVilma Maxwell who also attended Girls' Polytechnic at one time. Ever since the VVorld War they had been looking for a plan of peace. They had offered a prize of one million dollars to the one who would submit the best plan. Before I left for Egypt I learned that Charlotte THE POLYTECHNIC MAID 21 Plank had won that. But then, I remembered that Charlotte had always been clever. In the winter of 1945 I went to Egypt where I found Margit Nelson, Lela Woody, Ruth Redmond, Jeannette Robson, Frieda Sinn and Leona King digging up the mummies of early Egyptian kings. Marie Maes was the supervisor of their expedition. She had discovered a way of making sand into a metal more valuable than gold, and stronger than steel. I decided then to go to South America. I went through the Panama Canal of which Eva Borelli was caretaker and Margaret Voll her assistant. The boat stopped at a Peruvian port, where I decided to get off. I heard that an exploring party had found some Inca ruins, that were, as yet, un- heard of. Much to my surprise, Martha Battin and VVilma Cromwell were at the head of this exposition. I decided to go home in a balloon. This method of traveling was made possible by Marion VanHook who had been given the fortune of Henry Ford. I got back to Portland in time to bid Myrtle Gibney and Helen Parsons good-bye. They were on their way to Scappoose as delegates to an Old Maids, Convention. One week after my return to Portland, Edna Jones, was elected Mayor of the City of Roses and Margaret Stone, Governor of Oregon. It seemed so good to be home again with my cats and birds and parrots. Last night I called Mrs. Grahame, who is still the Dean at Poly, and told her all about the girls she knew and helped so much when they were in school. I know that she and everyone will be glad to know that thus have various members of the june '25 class found their roles in the huge cast of life. -Barbara Kirkland -Ellen Schultz il I .

They were both well dressed. Babe was a blonde and very pale under all the drugstore complexion she was obliged to use. She would have been a very attractive girl if she could have gone to the country for a while and had good, wholesome food and plenty of fresh air. Peggy, her companion, was healthy looking. No one could rightfully accuse her of using rouge or lip stick. Her snappy black eyes were so expressive that when you looked at her once you wanted to look again. Peggy lived just outside the city of Portland with her father and little sister. - Babe lived in the upstairs of a private home. l-ler brother stayed with her whenever he was out of college. Babe clidn't know much about cook- ing as she had never had anyone to teach her. Peggy, canlt you tell me something to cook for supper ? Babe asked. 'Tm so tired of living out of cans. - I'll tell you just what I am going to have, - Peggy answered. XVhat she told her was enough to make anyones mouth water. That night, Babe was spared the problem of cooking her own supper as the lady downstairs met her at the door with a letter from her brother, and as Babe looked tired she asked her to eat dinner with her husband and herself. After eating a well balanced meal, she felt better. She went up to her room and opened the letter from her brother. Her brother wrote that he was coming home in june and wanted his sister to cook a big chicken dinner for him. Babe didn't know what to do. She didn't know the first thing about F.

After she went to bed she lay thinking about Peggy, who had gone to the Girls' Polytechnic School and learned to cook so well. Peggy made all of Babe's clothes and now Babe wondered if she should ask her to cook this dinner for her. Much as she hated to, she decided to ask her. The next evening she invited Peggy over. Peggy made some chocolate creams and, while they were eating them seated on the lounge, Babe ex- plained the situation. They planned to have Peggy cook dinner. She had decided it would be better for Babe to be alone when her brother came or he might guess she never cooked dinner. Peggy said she would keep her hat and coat in the kitchen near the door so when they saw the brother coming up the street she could sneak downstairs through the back way and come up a little later after him. After this was settled the girls started cleaning house. They cleaned the kitchen thoroughly first. The next evening they took another room and so on until they had given the rooms a thorough spring house-cleaning. All the furniture was rearranged more artistically under Peggy's super- vision. VVhen they had finished no one could recognize it as the same place. The grand day arrived and all was ready. Peggy was busy cooking and Babe was setting the table. They were so busy they forgot to watch for Bill. 'KHello, kid! Vifhat smells so good ? Bill called from the dining room. There was no time to get out the door then. Peggy jumped into the broom closet and closed the door. Babe took up the work Peggy had left so hurriedly and called back: Come in here, Bill! I can't leave this a minutef, Bill came stomping in and Peggy could not resist the temptation to open the door a tiny bit and see the man they had made such a fuss over. She wanted to see if he was thin like his sister. VVhen she saw him her heart turned a flip-flop and then beat rapidly. It was only then she realized she had been so busy preparing for him, she had not thought to ask about him. He was not a blonde, just a happy medium. His eyes snapped as he surveyed the neat little kitchen and his sister's prim little house dress. Then he kissed her and Peggy wished herself in her friend's place, he seemed so strong and handsome. Gee, kid! Vvhat have you done to the place, it looks pretty catty I claim. I never really expected this, I just thought I'd give you a little scare. I intended to take you over town to dinner, of course. I guess the joke is on me. Yes, I guess so, Babe said, glancing guiltily at the broom closet. Bill strolled into the living room whistling and looking around. VVhy is the table set for three P I am expecting a girl friend for dinner, but you don't mind, do you, Bill? she asked. I'll say I don't mind. Is she good looking?l' VVait and see, Bill. I'm going to shut this door so the smoke won't get in that room. I'll be back in just a minutef' After she shut the door she motioned to Peggy to get out before Bill came, and come in the front door. Peggy was in such a hurry to get out she caught her foot in the mop and down she went. Crash! Bang! The broom, mop, duster and stove rag all fell on top of her. Bill came running into the room. He looked first at one girl and then at the other. Oh, Peggy! VVe can't keep it any longer. Bill, this is my girl friend I was expecting, Peggy Low. She is also the cookf' THE POLYTECHNIC MAID 27 Well, I might have known something was up, Bill said. VVhen Peggy had gathered herself up, Bill asked, You didn't fall for me, did you? Well, I don't know. It was all your fault, anywayf' That night Bill invited a boy friend of his from college over and all four went out canoeing. The four young people went together all summer, and when the boys returned to school in the fall, the girls were both wearing diamonds. That winter Babe went to live with Peggy, where she learned to cook and sew. When the boys graduated from college the next year, Babe was as plump and pretty as her little friend. Peggy and Bill are now living in Laurelhurst in their home they planned together, and Babe and her hus- band live next door to them. -MARTHA BATTIN, English IV.

It is located on the Snake River, sixty miles south of Spokane, VVashington, and has a population of between three and four thousand. Colfax was built in a long, narrow valley, completely surrounded by hills and had very little chance to increase in size. The main business sections are located in the valley, 'while the residences are built on the sides of the hills. In reality it has only two streets running lengthwise. There are numerous cross streets, but they are short and end abruptly at the foot of the hills at either end. It was in this quiet little town that my parents lived, and that Ireceived most of my early training. I had two sisters. Elsie was six years old and of a quiet disposition. Vera, my youngest sister, was three years old. I was nine years old and being the oldest had more or less responsibility. My father was engaged in a successful business, and all together we were a happy and contented family. ' But in the Spring of 1915 my mother was taken suddenly ill and died. The loss was greatly felt and could never be replaced. Left with three motherless children, my father faced a great responsibility. My mother's last words to him were, No matter what happens, be sure and take good care of the children. A housekeeper was immediately secured, but as was natural, she took no interest in us. She did not care whether we were clean or had the proper things to eat. Several other housekeepers were tried, but of no avail. They were all the same. Finally my father decided to take a trip abroad and visit his old home in Sweden, which he had left as a small boy. He thought in this way that he would be able to overcome his great sorrow, and also that he might find some means of giving his children a better training in the old country. Therefore, in the fall of the same year, preparations were made for the long trip. Finally everything was arranged and it was with heavy hearts that we bade our friends and old home good-bye, not knowing whether we should ever see them again. But as the days wore one, there were so many strange and wonderful sights to occupy our attention, that we soon forgot our troubles. We arrived in New York the day before the sailing of the boat. Being so excited and filled with anticipation of the following day, we were with great difficulty persuaded to eat or sleep. The next morning we were up early. To get to the boat we had first to take a ferry to the pier where it was anchored, so it was nearly noon before we went aboard. About three o'clock in the afternoon the anchors were taken up, and the boat was ready to leave. The bands played and there was much cheering and waving of handkerchiefs as we sailed out of the harbor. Soon the Statue of Liberty was passed and we sailed out into the rough waters of the Atlantic Ocean. It was the first time that either of my sisters or I had been on a boat, so one can imagine our sensation when we could see nothing but the sky overhead and the rolling ocean below us. At this time a gong sounded and we went below to the dining room. It was a large room with many tables scattered about. These tables would seat from six to eight people. On each table was a white table cloth with a bowl of flowers fof course this was only at the beginning of the tripl. The waiter seated us at a table near a porthole, so we could very readily see the waves splash against the windows. Wfe occupied the same table through the trip, so the waiter knew us quite well before we landed. P THE POLYTECHNIC MAID 31 During the meal the passengers were favored with music, both vocal and instrumental. After dinner, father took us to explore the ship. There were rooms for all purposes. Among them were ladies' rest rooms, men's smokers, a library, a writing room with individual writing desks, having stationery. ink, pens, pencils and such things as are necessary in writing. There were many other rooms, but the one that really interested us most was the nursery. lt was a large room furnished in white with toys of all descriptions that would make any child happy. It was in charge of a trained nurse, and it was here we spent most of our time playing with other children. Every evening whenever the weather permitted there would be music and dancing on deck. They also had what you might call a regular hospital, with a doctor and several trained nurses to look after the sick. There were three deaths on the boat going over. One of the saddest and most pathetic one I have ever witnessed was that of an aged man, who was accompanied by his daughter, and who knew he did not have very long to live, therefore wanted to spend his last days in his native land. But the trip proved too much for him and he died six days from land. It would have been too long to keep the body so it was buried at sea. It was a very simple ceremony, held early in the morning before many people were on deck. A few words were spoken by the minister and a hymn sung. The casket Qwhich was a wooden boxj was placed on a plank that extended out from the railing. The end of the plank was slowly raised and the casket slid into the ocean and disappeared from sight. After sixteen long days on the water, we finally reached Christiana in Norway. My father decided that being so close to Denmark. we might as well see some of that country. So the next day we continued on to Copenhagen. XVe stayed there only a few hours as we were anxious to reach our destination. XYe arrived in Gotenburg, Sweden, late in the afternoon and the same evening took a train to jonkaping, which was a two days' trip. VVe were met at the station by an uncle and he took us to his home. It was several days before we felt really rested. Continued on Page 33 l - H -- S h- C C. D. KENNEDY -meI'10'2lI1 EIWHIIGU YCHIHS IP OIUPSHY 201 Ry.Exen.B1dg.

Imagine yourself in a strange land, among strange people not able to speak or understand their language. But I started to school and with private instructions in the evenings, I soon was able to read, write and speak the language quite well. After six months, business matters compelled my father to return to the United States. He left my sisters and me in good care, with the assur- ance that he would either return or send for us in a couple of years. VVhat happened during the three' years that followed would take too long to write. ' But one day in June, 1918, the relatives we were staying with received the following cablegram: Get all my children ready. VViring tickets. Come at oncef' You couldn't have found any happier children than we were, being informed that we were soon to see our father. But it didn't prove as soon as we thought it would on account of the World War. There was but one liner running between the Scandinavian ports and the United States, two months being required for the round trip. VVe had just missed one boat and the next one to sail had been booked up months before. But fortune favored us. One passenger who had a passport for the next sailing changed his mind about going and turned his ticket into the ticket office. The agents, knowing how anxious we were to leave and being American born, let us have this stateroom, although there were many ahead of us on the waiting list. A trip from Sweden to the State of VVashington for three little girls and with the world at war, required careful handling and my father did everything he could to make the trip as easy as possible for us. IVhen the passengers learned that we were traveling alone they did everything to make the trip pleasant, and we made many friends. We were fifteen days on the water. Never did or ever will the Statue of Liberty mean so much to me as when we sailed into New York harbor. Arriving in New York, we were met by some friends whom my father had instructed to look after us. We were to stay in New York for a few days in order that we might be rested before going on. They were also to see that our baggage was properly checked, and that we should have plenty of fruit in the lunch that we were to have on the train. VVe were also provided with funds for our meals, and were placed on board the train for the West. The morning of the fifth day we arrived in Spokane. My father was there to meet us. Words can't express our joy at seeing one another. We arrived that evening in Colfax, and many friends were there to meet us, some of whom were former schoolmates. During our three years of absence my father had remarried and had a home awaiting us. -THORA MALMER, English IV.

Here we met two girls who were coming to America on the same boat we were. N'Ve stopped at Chiavari, a city as large as Portland, which was situated by the ocean, where we stayed for one day at the home of my aunt. The next day we took the train and arrived in Genoa at seven o'clock in the evening. How beautiful the city looked to me for it was the first time I had ever seen it. Here I saw many strange and beautiful things that I had never seen before: for instance, the street cars running on tracks, the crowds of people going to and fro, and the city all illuminated with elec- tric lights. It was a strange thing to me when my uncle, who was with me, told me that when I should arrive in America, I would take the car every morning and night when going to work. He didn't mention school, because I would have laughed at thinking of a big girl like me going to school. XYe went to sleep very late that night, and the next day we took all our things to the port Cdepotl. Here we were examined and vaccinated. XYe boarded the boat at ten o'clock in the morning and six hours later the ship started to move from the land which we knew, to face another one strange to our eyes. XYC gave the farewell to our country with tears of sorrow and joy. --MARY BATTILEGA, English IV. il: 0- if! ,Cp ff- vb? ., Miss F lacks rench hocolates Are 31.25 a Pound Delicious fondant made with real cream, then dipped in pure choco- late and rolled in green pistachio nuts, chocolate rice, cocoa, chopped nuts or eocoanut.

And we, as well as those poor cats, Are often known to fuss. -Janette Duncan, English III. VVay down South, where bananas grow, The ant stepped on the elephant's toe.

VVe're glad our work is finished lint we're sad at leaving Poly'l. -EDITH BLACKER, A SENIOR'S FAREWELL Of all the events of our high school life, The troubles, the joys, the work, and the strife, There is one that stands above the rest, The one which all Seniors consider the best, This, our Graduation Day.

Towards our Graduation Day. Farewell to the juniors, we wish you luck: For Seniors you'll find, need both courage and pluck. Farewell to the Sophomores, to Freshmen adieu, XYe wish you success, and happiness too On your Graduation Day. -Thora Malmer, English V and VI FOUNTAIN PENS KODAKS Rose City Pharmacy E.
