Lee Heineman owns a filling station and daily supplies Donald Wyse with gas for his travels around the country selling patented buttons for buttonless shirts. Needless to say that Lorena Batzli travels with him to keep idle fingers out of mischief. Cwe often wonder what has become of dear Martha Alice.l Zella DeCort and Marion Grooms are the stenog- raphers for the company and daily rid it of many dollars. Some more of our classmates are in business. Out in Nevada we find Bill Geiger and Darrell Carpenter as big Butter and Egg men. They also have their efficient Secretaries Beatrice Hoffman and Marjorie Stoffer, who is, we are sad to say, in danger of being fired because of her unceasing chattering and incessant gum chewing. Let's look around New York. we might find someone we would be interested in, You'll be surprised to see whose name we see in blazing lights five feet high. It's none other than Mary Mountz thrilling the playboys with her indescribable dancing at hae West's new night club on 42nd street. Also we see Agnes Kelly and Margaret Hobbins in a sister act doing the light fantastic. Let's look on the social register and see if we recognize anyone. Why, here's Wilma Stanley, a highly sophisticated young matron of the U4OON. Marjorie Courtney is her personal maid giving her facials and making her beautiful. Why, there's Martha.Mather, the diving champion of United States, featured on the stage at the Roxy Theater. Oh here's some astounding news. Orlan Stoffer's uncle died leaving him a handsome legacy and now he's spending all his cash rushing women and drinking-etea, we find Ellen Weingart in New York also. She has given up her idea of Hforsaking all othersu and has seven or eight boy friends. Not bad, Ellen. Out in Hollywood we see them filming the movie, NHis Allureu with Ralph Sangree as the hero and Genevieve Holloway as the fair heroine. Betty Arnold has a singing part in this famous picture. She surely does sound broken-hearted. Did someone say that Mike wasn't with her? Dorothy Bricker is in Hollywood also. She has had four husbands and is now looking for her fifth. She must be racing with Peggy Joyce. You.have our congratulations, Dot. The crystal-gazer was surprised recently to notice in the paper that Eula Hersman was advertising for respectable unmarried spinster ladies to live at her comfortable home in the quiet district of Patmos. Why, there goes Arthene Bye, still pretty and chic, she's nursemaid to a poodle, now isn't that nice? We surely do have to cover a lot of territory to find Naomi Jackson. She's -- 52 --

Mildredityers who makes an exceedingly capable s 'Y 1-an 1 G O S H 0 N I A N Early in the,year we decided to edit an annual. Margaret Hobson was made editor-in-chief: Evelyn Long, assistant editorg Bill Geiger, business manager: and Oren Jones, assistant business manager. The annual was named NThe Goshoniann by Helen Greeneisen, a sophomore. It is a new project at Goshen but it and UThe Tattleru have our best wishes for a continued success. The officers of our class now are: president, Evelyn Longg sec- retary, Margaret Hobson: and treasurer, Letha Venable. The size of our class has greatly diminished. One half of the seventy-two wide- eyed freshmen who gathered that September morning have become Seniors. As the Goshonian goes to the printer's we are looking forward to the presentation of our class play nTiger Housen on May 17: baccalaur- eate on May 19g JuniorqSenior Banquet on Nay 20g and the last event of our school lives--Connmncement on Nay 24. Our class has been well represented in the different phases of school activities and we feel we have made a creditable record in all of them. - Margaret Hobbins Class Prophecy A particular custom Cand one which seems very unnecessary and bothersome to the writer, at least? is that of giving a prophecy of the great things to be done in the near future by the brilliant graduating class and so I will wipe the dust off the crystal sphere of time and will try to rob it of its secrets. As the curtain lifts a bed appears, a hospital bed, a doctor and nurse stand with anxious frowns on their brows gazing desponde ently upon a patient in the bed. Oren Jones, after many years of struggling with the deadly Hsleeping sicknessu has succumbed under the watchful and careful eye of the doctor, Drexel Knoedler, and and sweet looking nurse. And, oh yes, lest we forget Joe Batzli, is at his bedside either hastening Oren on his awakening him. The scene shifts and reveals a vast panora In the distance is a ranch-house.
