THE SECRET LIFE OF MISS KEMPYH OR USENORISNI- Miss Kempy was a teacher. Miss Kempy was an unusual teacher. She was a teacher with a smile, a sense of humor that peeped through the iron curtain of re- strain that ordinarily drapes a teacher's face. Miss Kempy was a happy teacher, even carefree was a correct adjective. Perhaps you, readers, have noticed l speak in the past tense, Miss Kempy was a happy and carefree teacher! That was Miss Kempy before the school year 1947-1948. Nowadays, Miss Kempy remembers that year more vividly than any other date in history---and she knows them all. I shall tell you why she remembers. You see, she can't forget it because of dreams. Yes, dreams that began to plague her sleepless nights shortly after September, 1947, and then gradually ceased after May, 1948. lt was then that the class of '48' grad- uated from that southwest room. Oh! She remembers that class, but in an odd, strange way--the way dreams drift into sight, startle you, then fade away and leave you face to face with the question, How could I've stood it? There was that first dream, for instance. Blue walls, a white bookcase, aneat teacher's desk and Miss Kempy standing on the globe of the world. Stretched out before her were the members of the class of '48'. King Kemper was watching Dicky Boy Nelson count a stack of gold coins. Yep, we have 'noughl Let's buy something for dear 'ole jefferson that will help us be' heard everywhere. Oh, I'd rather buy a television system--we could be seen too g this coming from Blonde Miriam slowly stroking the comb through her hair as she gazes a- cross the room. Be sure and - 1 a long pause here while he yawnsj - have punch-buttons put on it. I'd hate to have to - fanother yawn, - work using the thing, Sleepy Rob- erts blinks his eyes as he finishes and is out again. About this time the world turned, and Miss Kempy rolled down the hall to the office. Thus, the Public Address System was ordered. So the first dream ended and Miss Kempy began to realize that Senorism ala' class '48' had set in. That was in November. From then on, dreams were plen- tiful and swirling activities of the class haunted her throughout the nights, as well as the days. To be truthful, it was difficult to distinguish between actual happenings and dream sequences. Confusing as it seems, here is Miss Kempy's memory of the class of '48'. fDreamly speaking, that is., lt was in December when a nightrnarish dream presented itself several times. There gliding about the southwest room was stately Betty Lou, her quiet being and .demure smile camouflaged by a terrified look as she mumbled things like Is this a dagger I see before me--or is it Mr. Allen? Tomorrow and tomorrow and to- morrow , or in a hawkish voice question-mark Delk would say, The raven him- self is hoarse that croaks! Allie Smithy fthe delight of Zanny Zur of the South roomj brightly yelled out Who wouldn't be hoarse with all these lines to remember? And he wants them in order, too! So life was reflected to Miss Kempy when the class of '48' was learning Macbeth. l8
