THE TATLER 9 scope, I saw a millinery shop where many smart styles were created. It was run by Ofeglia Casinghino and Louise Luke. Next I saw a large market garden in New York state, where all sorts of vegetables and fruits were raised. Many workmen were employed by the two owners of the business, Sam Frangimore and Stanley Trachimo- wi cz. After seeing all my classmates in their present surroundings, I heaved a sigh of relief, for I was satisfied with the surroundings in which I saw them, all so prosperous and successful. Class Jingles Matteo Alaimo What would happen to Alaimo’s store If Matteo wasn’t there to sweep the floor. To sell the canned goods and the beans, Also the potatoes, vegetables, and greens. Anna Alongi Anna Alongi out West To Hollywood may go. To act there with others In the moving picture show. Henry Angell Henry Angell is an angel indeed, ’Cept when it came to the American’s Creed, And then when asked to write He blushed and said, ‘T’ll learn it to- night.” Mary Arventeley Mary keeps you guessing.
