CLASS PROPHESY The other evening I was invited to the home of a former classmate, Mrs. Elson (nee Bessie Sanders) to a dinner in honor of our graduation anniversary. During the course of the evening we discussed and wondered what they were doing now. After returning home I felt the affects of too much mince pie and grape juice. I retired early. I was soon fast asleep and in my dream I saw: Phyllis Poulin, as the world renowned drum- mer, still shy and pretty, heading the top line of the Orpheum Circuit. Accompanying her is a well known Winnemucca boy whose job is to carry the drum. Walter Case, who has just promised to “love, honor and obey” sweet Viola and henceforth will be head of a large Mercantile Store away up north. Ruth Hubbard signing a check for $10,000, the royalty on her latest book, entitled “Why They Called the Annual Winnada.” Margaret Weber, still bright and happy, flit- ting from ward to ward in the Letterman Hos- pital entertaining the wounded soldiers. Charles Fishburn stepping along jauntily with a suitcase in each hand. He is going from door to door peddling platinum cooking uten- sils far cheaper than tinware, since such great quantities of platinum are found near Winne- mucca. La Verne Richardson taking an active inter- est in politics since leaving school, and now I find her seated in the Mayor’s chair of Winne- mucca. Laura Kranz peddling hot popcorn and gum on the Western Pacific and when questioned as to her motive in taking up this work blush- ingly admitted that her name was “Mrs. Smithe” and did this so she could accompany her husband on his trips. Ellen Wells, a famous pianist, touring the world as accompanist to McCormick. Then my eyes seemed to be blinded by the brightness of the spotlight and I saw dancing across the stage amid a deafening applause our old classmate, Blanch Guthrie, who has far eclipsed the famous Pavlowa in dancing. My dream was suddenly terminated by a loud knocking at my door. I jumped out of bed and bounded to the door to find Mother there. “Get up,” she said, “there’s a whole week’s washing for you to do.” WILMA BLATTNER, ’22.

CLASS WILL WE, THE GRADUATING CLASS OF ’22, feeling worn and decrepit with old age, but kindly disposed toward the younger students of H.C.H.S., and having a high opin- ion of our many worldly possessions, wish to pass them on to those people whom we know will appreciate them most highly, do hereby make, declare and publish our last Will and Testament: First: To the Faculty, we leave the memory of happy hours spent in leading us “In the flowery paths of knowl- edge.” Second: To the Sophomore Class, who are badly in need of “Pep,” we wish to leave our particular brand, for which we are famous. Third: We wish to leave all the class parties we failed to give to the Juniors, providing they will make all of them as enjoyable and original as the ones they have given in the past. Fourth: To the Juniors, who will be Seniors next year, we will the Senior privileges that never materialized. Fifth: To the noisy, obstreperous Sophomore boys we will our cjuiet, lady-like manners. Sixth: The feminine members of the class wish to leave to those Freshmen girls, who bobbed their hair, our long and fair tresses, to be used for rats, when they start putting up their hair. Our personal effects are to be disposed of as follows: 1. I, Phyllis Poulin, will and bequeath my unbroken tardiness record to Helen Adamson. Also my ability to write my own excuse in case she accidentally should be late. 2. I, Charles Fishburn, leave my latest dance steps to Carl Diess, providing he will guarantee to shake as wicked a foot and swing the girls as merrily as I. 3. I, Ruth Hubbard, do will my position as chaperone of two certain couples to anyone who can keep as close tab on them as I did. 4. I, Margaret Weber, do will and bequeath three bottles of superfluous pep to Mary Hurtado, and my eyebrows to Rose Erringer. 5. I, Laura Kranz, wish to leave “Smitty’s” Ford to next year’s Girls’ Basketball team. May it serve them as faithfully as it did me. 6. I, Bessie Saunders, will my one year of Stenography to anyone who wishes to begin second-year work in that subject. 7. I, Wilma Blattner, beoueath my position as jumping center on the All-State Basketball team to Frankie Beatty. 8. I, Blanch Guthrie, leave my basketball shoes that Mr. Scott so generously donated to the cause, to James Moore, providing his feet fill them up as well as mine did. Also my art of shooting baskets to Margie Otis. 9. I, Ellen Wells, wish to leave my bashful ways and shy manner to Frances Stuart. 10. I, Walter Case, wish to leave my track suit to Altman Reil, nnd my saxophone to anyone who will make better use of it than I did. 11. I, LaVerne Richardson, leave my gracefulness to Joe Legnrza, providing he shares it at times with Hampton. In witness whereof, we have hereunto set our hands and seals, this first day of June in the year of our Lord Nineteen Hundred Twenty-Two. Witness: Miss Colyer. BLANCH M. GUTHRIE, ’22.
