' Perhaps we should be happy To say at last we're through, elk., . fs.. But once we re from your shelter ,,'2'11f4'i Q Our past days we'll ne'er rue. Cruel fate will oft' times lose us On paths not tread before. Be patient, dear old G. H. S., Don't turn us from your door. You've always understood us You've helped us make our gain. We'll honor and respect you Forever you will reign. Reba E. Dowds, '26. Senior Prophecy What do you say? We'll start out with the red hair-huh? Ethel,-you know- Miss Morris. She made a tour of Mexico and was grabbed up by the cold Tomale Bull Fighter's Club :-they use her for a taunt. Very agile and slim she has grown,-in fact you'd hardly recognize the lady. By the way, this is supposed to be fifteen years hence, so use lots of imagination, and make allowances. Now we'll switch off to the opposite sex:- Hello! hello! Malt Extract 3.7515 A-, Montgomery! Yes! O-oh, I see. Well, we'll,-yes,-we'll take the back page this issue. A-all rightie. N-uhuh! Good bye! Raymond, a big ad man from Philly, is in charge of Curtis Publishing Magazine broadcasting. His income last year looked like the Allied war debt. Now back again: A certain Miss Doris Kurtz has been acclaimed by Manhattan papers as Ann Pennington's successor. Ziegfeld himself came rushing up to her after the primiere, emanating enthusiasm, called her the kitten's ear muffsu. and said he'd do any- thing for her 5-told her she could have his cellar key anytime. She, incidentally, is running Peggy Joyce a 'marry' race. Miss Kurtz lives just next door to the eminent elocutionist, Lucille Rice. Lucille wants Doris to get her in the Follies, and the latter says she'll see. Now for some more maroon locks,-Mr. Red Osborne. Red is a photo- grapher,-guarantees to shoot you so you'll look like a movie actor. He got his idea from his own senior picture.

.-Ir-mira-1 e.. H. s. resw'-911' Senior Play Adam and Eva, the play chosen by the senior class to be presented June l and 2 in the high school building, has been staged various times with great success both on the acting stage and the screen. The cast of the local presentation, picked by the faculty, is made up of seniors the majority of whom have unusual talent and have had experience in dramatic work. Supt. A. D. St. Clair with his usual thoroughness is making a finished product of the performance which will be a fitting close to the work of the Class of l926. The list of characters and a short resume of the play follows: Iames King .......................... ..-Frank Steadman Corinthia ................ ---Annabelle Hammond Clinton Dc Witt --- ------ Hamilton Fisher julie De Witt ----- ---Margaret Thomas Eva King ---------- ----- J ean Ebaugh Aunt Abby Rocker-U ---- Marie Bigelow Dr. fuck Dclamatcr--- ------ Eugene Jones Horace Pilgrim ----- ---Fletcher Nicholas Adam Smith --------------------- .- -------- Abram Flory Lord Andrew Cordon ----.----------------- James Young James King is a man who has made a large fortune but has allowed it to spoil his two daughters. Julie, the elder one, is married to a rather worthless young man, Clinton De Witt. Both she and her husband are living off her father. Eva, the younger daugh- ter, is a frivolous young girl who is trying to decide which of her two suitors, Lord Andrew Gordon and Dr. Jack Delamater, she will marry. They are both fortune hunt- ers. Aunt Abby, a prominent club worker and King's late wife's sister, is also living with him. Horace Pilgrim, King's uncle, came for a week-end visit and stayed. Corinthia, the maid, is an admirable maid. Adam Smith, King's business manager, is romantic al- though he is practical: he thinks a home is a wonderful thing. I The first act is in Mr. King's home on l-.ong Island. King is cross because it is bill day. The family persuade Dr. Delamater to get him to believe he is sick and needs a vacation but Uncle Horace gives away the scheme. Adam Smith comes on business and the act ends with King installing lVlr. Smith as father and he himself leaving. The second act is ten days later. Adam has been disillusioned in his ideas of family life. He reads of a Hurry in the market and tells the family that Mr. King is ruined. He steals their jewels so they cannot pawn them. They all believe him and begin to plan what they will do. The third act is on the King farm three months later. King comes home and finds his family changed. They are no longer frivolous people. Adam marries Eva whom he had loved when he first met her on Long Island. The play is a modern popular play with clever, interesting conversation, and plenty of opportunity for talented acting. An Appreciation We, the Seniors of the graduating class of nineteen hundred and twenty-six of the Granville High School, wish to express our most gracious thanks to one whom we love with all our hearts. She has been a loyal friend, a true companion: one who has sym- pathized with us in all our troubles and sorrowsg one who has helped share our joys and good times: one who has held her place as a teacher with graceful dignity, and yet been full of fun: one who has always been ready to help us in anything we do. To her we owe much of the spirit that has been shown through all our various class activities. We do, therefore, use this space in our Annual to pay tribute to Mrs. Shepard. 20
