Speech by aCandidate, take Everthing into Consideration. - Z CLYDE MCLEMORE. -3-1-gg.. A Letter Home. ' - ' Greenfield, Mo., Sept. 15th, 1905. Dear Pa and Ma: . I have been in school one week and have seen and learned lots already. A Things' here in the Greenfield High School are so different from what I thought they'd be. , I am just chuck full of things to tell you but I can't find a good place to start in. I guess I'll tell you about the teachers-the faculty as they was labelled in the cat- alog I got last summer. Well, about Prof. Melcher, I don't know much about him for he don't associate with me very much except I see him every morning when all 'of we students assemble up-stairs to hear his daily lecture as the juniors call it. The very second morn- ing another fellow in my class, a freshman-for that's what they call us that's just starting in well this boy was whispering to the boy that was sitting with him and pretty soon he look- ed up and Prof. Melcher had stopped his lecture and was just standing there a-looking right at him and it wasn't a minute till everybody in the house had turned on his seat and was looking at this boy. Gee! but his face got red as fire and he said afterwards that he felt like a fool. But they say itis a way that Prof. Melcher has. l The other teachers are mostly women and I don't know much about them, but I'm sure they are good teachers for don't you remember it said in the catalog they was all grad- uates from some big college or other? But nobody could tell it by looking at 'em, though in the classes they seem to know what they're talking about. They board at the Washington. I hear some of the students say they're taking music and some that they are taking elecution. I have located the room where the seniors take physics and the library where everybody takes naps, but I can't locate the departments of Art, Elocution and Music. They must be around somewhere 'cause they was all in the catalog, but so far I haven't run across 'em. They have two literary societies just as the catalog said, but I guess- I'll have enough to keep me busy getting my lessons without joining any literarysocieties, and anyhow they've not asked me to join yet. - I .Well, I will close for this time and get to studying my lesson for we have to sign a paper that we'll studytwo hours every night. Pm just now beginning on my Latin lesson, It's the funniest stuff. Good-bye for this time, . ' Your Loving Son, I TOBIASB P. S. I will tell you about some of the students next time. Some of them don't study hard- ly any and then put idownlon paper that they've studied two or three hours. Windy Martin, I got acquainted with him the first-day. And some of the girls I know are: Madge Harrison, Helen Carr, Beulah and Zetta White and a whole lot more. They say there are more of the feminine gender in school than there are boys anyhow, but I must study some. ' I wish you folks could hear me read some of this Latin. It's the funniest stuff. L' As Above, ' CCLARENCE MCLEMOREJ TQBE' '
