The sky seemed blue and promising when they entered, lured on by the riches awaiting them -ten counts. A week passed and dark clouds began to loom up on the horizon, and they were tossed about on the rough waters of the French verbs. Seasiekness overtook some and one by one, they perished. At the end of the first year only seven were left to enter French II. On the first day of school these seven courageous students faced Mrs. Scripter, who held in her hand the key to the door of the French lan- guage. One morning I-Ielen Wells reported that she had overheard an interested friend say to Murray I-Iendricks,, I suppose you have a good place in your class P Oli, yes! replied Murray. I sit right by the radiator. Margaret Lindsley and Agnes Flint are the two really conscientious members of the class. They never come to class unprepared. The rest of us make daily resolutions, but goodness! s Lives there a man with soul so dead? Who never to himself has said, 'I'll learn my French clear through , and throughf ' No, never! For it he would rue. -Q VVe must not forget Mildred Cos- grove and Irene Travis, for even if they are small, they do not follow the old rule that children should be seen and not heard. Frances Kranze and Helen Wells are certainly flappers, but they evi- dently believe French to be a very useful accomplishment, for they man- age to pass at least one-half of the tests during the yearl Next June we hope t.o close the door to our' French career and to enter a new life, which lies beyond graduation. We feel that some last- ing monument should be left to our greatness: . Flow on, ye river of Learning- Flow on to the dead, dead sea. We were an illustrious French Class And our memory e'er green will be. -M. COSGROVE. - El A Training Class THE WILDS I took a trip ,to Washington with two companions, Thelma Little and Gladys Perkins,' and of course we followed the best Rhoades froadsj. We went to Fulton on the Travis Bus and then. took the trolley to Syracuse. ' We waited 'at the sta- tion for a train to Scranton. There was no one in the station when we arrived but soon the crowd began to gather. Who do you suppose was in this crowd? It was Vera Chaffee and Adsen McNett. They informed us that they were eloping to get away i r , X l

HANNIBAJ. HIGH SCHOOL . . 13, from the teacher. -They said that Maude Rhoades and John Fuller were to join them at Albany, and at New York the four were to sail for Europe. The train pulled in and we were again on our way to the end of the rope. . At Elmira a familiar couple boarded the train and ,after listening a few minutes We heard a man's voice sing- ing, No, No, Nora . We recognized them as a Hannibal Training Class girl and a Hannibal Mason. They were on their way to Washington, so they accompanied us. Gladys tried tovamp the conductor but Thelma interfered saying, You must not lose your dignity. This, of course, was a speech we learned in Hannibal. You have often .heard about riding on a railway and the many funny sights you see. ' Well, we saw Alice Weiss getting Riley over' the tele- phone. - ' When tl1e train stopped at Harris- burg, we saw Bob driving a new Cro- foot Carr . He had brought the newly-Weds to the train. You may be interested to know that the newly- weds were Doris and Gordon Sturge. After traveling fort twenty-four hours, we were very much pleased to land in Washington about eight o'clock. Near the station was a tax- icab and VVilson's name was on the hood. We decided to take this to a hotel. We were passing down the avenue, when all of a sudden-the car stopped-the driver turned around- oh! It was Muriel Manning. One ,by one we picked up tlfe other members of tl1e Training Class. They knew all about Washington so they took us to the most interesting places to see the most noted men. Ioan and Louise insisted that we go to see Brigadier-General Forbes, and General Grant. There was one of our party that wanted to go to a different place than the rest of us. We coaxed but it was of no-avail. It made Lu- cille so angry that she yelled, Oh, let 'er go Gallagher. The hands of the clock were ap-- proaching twelve so we started to a restaurant for lunch. As we neared the corner we saw a sign, Randall's Novelty Store . Edna says, Oh, 'let's go in, but we were in too big a hurry to stop. Nearly everyone was hungry and ordered a big lunch, but Dorothea insisted that all she wanted was a Cracker. In the afternoon we went to see Spooning in the Kitchen . The her- oine was Gladys Randall and the hero, Harold Morley. On Sunday morning we went to church and, as it was Easter morn, the Kings were singing Easter Car- rolls. They were sungso sweetly that other Hannibal girls would have been jealous if they had heard them. There was one more place we wanted to go before our departure, this was the university. On Monday morning about ten o'clock we went there. Phillips was the superinten- dent and everybody was in their Place. After we left the university we went on a long excursion in Mc- Intyre's truck. No one could ride on the front seat with the driver but Mildred Washburn. We went to Scranton, Pa., to see the Cole mines at Helen and Bernice's suggestion. VVhen we arrived back at the hotel a telegram was waiting for us. It was from Mildred Harper, Marguerite Phillips and Evada Randall, saying that they would join us for the last day. VVe knew it would be of as much interest to them as it was to us, so we we11t where Winfield wanted us to go on the last day of our visit. It was to the Scott Beauty Parlor . This long trip was so enjoyable that we wanted some souvenir. We looked around and found a store with the sign Reed Baskets For Sale . We decided to buy some of these as Dor- othy was in our happy group. We had done a great deal ,ot Schouten around and as Bertha Youngs wanted to stop at the Irvin Tourists' Lodging at North Sterling, we decided to return. Gladys Perkins was so intent on looking for a man that she left us and went to Florida. D . A peach was walking down the street, She was more than passing fair. A smile, a nod, a half-closed eye, And the peach became a pairq -K. S. Krazedp
