CANNERY MISERY They say ambitious people go places, so, a few of the Seniors decided they would try it. We started out for the tomato cannery at New Madison, on September Z8, 1948, It was very chilly that morning, but we didn't mind, We all trudged in, with our big rubber boots on, ready and anxious. At first the odor was terrific but we soon got used to that. The boss told us where the office was. This was where we were given tags with our names on them. These were for keeping track of h0W many bucketfuls of tomatoes we peeled. Rubber aprons were also given to us. Some of the boys had snap-jobs, working upstairs, at least the odor wasn't quite so bad. Tomatoes, tomatoes and more tomatoes. We peeled so many we thought we would see them in our dreams for the rest of our lives. Some of us quit work about two hours after dinner. This wasn't quitting time, but we girls just couldn't take it any longer. We turned in our aprons and our cards and then washed up. Since the boys we re not through yet, we went out and sat in the cars. Soon the boys were done and we said goodbye to the tomatoes fsome other girls were working there, and departed. The few boys who did not go to the cannery, picked up potatoes at J'ordan's one day. They turned in the money they made that day, just as we had at the cannery. With the se two projects we got off to a flying start for our Senior year. J BOOKS At the first of the year the Senior Class was anxious to go to Washington. So, in or- der to do this, we knew we had to make some money. The re was a project that had been mentioned several times but had never been car- ried through, so, we decided to try it. A' committee was chosen to see several printers in Richmond. Miss Kemp made a phone call to the Lewisburg Leader office. The next thing we knew we were selling J books. These little books contained just about everything you wanted to know in the line of school activities. They were made up of a Senior Page, containing officers of the class, class members, our motto, colors, flower, and class sponsor. Next, was the Faculty page, and following this were the offi- cers of the under-classmen. On the next page the organizations were mentioned with their cabinet officers. Then came the school calendar. In the back of the book was the Basketball Schedule, school song, pep song, two yells, the names of the Board of Educa- tion, the bus drivers, the cafeteria cooks, and the janitors. The very last page of the book was for notes for the owner's use. These J books sold for twenty-five cents each. They brought us a fairly good pro- fit and we hope everyone enjoyed them. GOING AWAY PRE SENT As you all know, graduating classes always leave some article to their school before they graduate, After much discussion our class finally made up our nminds. We are pre- senting a new showcase with a fluoresent light inserted. We hope you will like this new attraction, and that whenever you are at the schoolhouse and you see this purchase of our.s, that you will remember the good old class of nineteen hundred and forty-nine. . . I MIMICK ELECTION On election day, November 2, our school had an election of our own, We set up long tables in the Senior Room and had Seniors for the election board. Miss Kemp, the Senior Sponsor made ballots for us to elect President, Vice-President, and other political nom- inees. At the bottom of the ballot, there was a space for voting on the field house that was to be set up at Eaton. We had private booths along one side of the room, for voting. In these booths were little stands with pencils on them. Grades seven through twelve were eligible to vote. The Faculty also took time to cast their votes. After counting up the votes, the returns were given over the P.A. System. The re- sult for the presidential election was Dewey over Truman and for Vice-Presidency was Warren over Barkley. This proved to be very interesting and educational, as it gave all of us a good experience. Z3
