SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY—(Continued). Hazel Maclnerney married John Gibson and is employed in a laundry. Can you imagine my astonishment when I made a trip to Washington, I). C., to be present at the inauguration of “Rudy” Jacobs as president of the U. S. and found Jack Harney acting as Secretary of War in the cabinet? Mabel is president of the Veteran Football Players league and has done a great deal in this line. Opal Porter, Evelyn Propst, Wilma Rettel, Zelma Stiles, and Marjorie Bailey were giving soap box speeches in order to encourage a protective association for cowless cowboys. Gladys Hunt and Mary Louise Hawkins were chasing Wilbert Zetzman and Kenneth Thomas to South America for no good reason at all. Lawrence Williams holds the heavy weight championship of the world, having licked Dempsey and A1 Barclay. Eugene Yadon, John Richardson, and Jimmie Jefferson own a transfer line; they transfer their work to some one else. Of course the chief justice of the Supreme Court is “Buzz” Smith. Thus I traveled on. In every town I visited I met some old friends. Adam Detroit, Bob Huntley, and Vincent Kemp own and operate a big automobile company in Medford; Charlie Kendle is the football coach at Malin; Bob Morrison is leading a marvelous orchestra in Keno; Clifton Molatore works in a mattress factory; Roy Nine is a plumber. Hazel Farris and Isabel Jensen are giving underclassmen lessons in love making, and Vera Moore got a divorce from James Hall and is running a chain of swimming tanks. And what am I, do you ask? Why I am the world’s greatest story teller.” K. L. HICK DAY In the halls and in rooms twenty and five there was great excitement on Thursday, April 18, 1929. The underclassmen stared with amazement. The seniors laughed with glee. What could the meaning of this be? Why were the sophisticated seniors attired in such garbs? “I have it,” came the wee voice of a rook; “it’s senior hick day.” And that was it. Many laughs and much merriment were caused by this celebrated day. Bowery girls, farmers, rag-a-muffins, children, and women of the gay seventies were represented. Many also dressed in loud colors. With the consent of Mr. Jackson, principal, the class had charge of an assembly, which lasted fifteen minutes. Although the assembly was short, much was done. The class gave the rest of the student body an up-to-date style show, each member showing his costume. The class trio, Don Harlan, Jack Harney, and Harold Robertson, rendered two selections, which proved to be very entertaining. Mabel Moore, the orator, gave a very mournful reading about the little dog Alice and her flees. 19

Remember when we were so young, And our little lives had just begun? Then tlie time was only fun, just fun, Just at the time when life had just begun. Remember, huh ? Remember all the fun we’d have Katin’ ’at sample Mentholatum salve? Remember all the tar we’d chew. And all the paraffin and licorice too? Remember, huh ? Remember the time we ran away And didn’t come back till late that day? Anti also to the circus once we went, Right through the hole and in the great big tent? Remember, huh ? Remember when you had candy and I had none, And I was mad ’cause you wouldn’t give some ? And we fought as long as we could fight And then went and stayed together that night ? Remember, huh? You know ’at stolen watermelon—good, oh my! But we didn’t eat it, and you know why. And when that fellow came, how we did run Until our breath was almost done? Remember, huh? Remember little Mary Jane ’at said she was your gel, And how I differed then with you? And shall I tell? I up and wrote her a note for her to tell true Which it was she loved best—me or was it you? Remember, huh? Remember when we swimmin’ went, an' tried to hold our breath? And we went down clean under, determined to be best, And when we came up, gosh, but how we hollered. Of course we wouldn’t tell, but 'twas the mud we’d swallered. Remember, huh ? And so it is that pleasant things always may come back Upon that supreme faculty, that memory railroad track.
