CLASS PROPHECY To prophecy is hard to do; Each case takes thought and study; To tell who fortune will pursue, Is a scourge on anybody, 20 Years From Hew Gordon Sutherland is a friend of all; His talent is so quaint; He took old fortune for a fall By being proclaimed a Saint, Politics is a hard row to hoe, But is conquered by ambition; Ken Loop, as we all know Has won by intuition. Howard Granger a man of means; Undaunted by misfortunes, Is stuffing money is his jeans By going through contortions, Joe Hawkins is the Mayor of Peseyville; The metropolis of the Y est, He scaled the knoll called political hill And passed fates every test. The markets trembled and profits fell, The financial world grew pale. Ken Lundberg put the globe on its feet, By releasing his hoarded kale. Melvin Granger is fond of motoring, He has purchased a model T. He says, There v ill be no more loitering On life’s highway for me. A scientist is amazing the earth, Howard Madison is his name; In the field of science his name ranks first His prestige none would disdain. The forests are now under control; They cannot withstand science; Woodrow Matson and his patrol. Gave them bold defiance. Richard Philp, a sterling lad, Is setting the world aglow; He sent the bankers raving mad By hoarding all the dough.

•I must need toil at home, therefore I cannot graduate. ,rI am dull and cannot learn; I pray thee have me excused. I am going to be married, and therefore I need not graduate. And thus did the Class decrease in number. Chapter IV Non this the fourth year in the history of this great and wonderful Class of nineteen hundred and thirty-two has been one of hard labor, for we have been making ready to take our depart- ure from this land. This year there was organized at the high school the assoc- iated Students of Lake Stevens High School. It was comprised of an Executive Committee of whom the following were officers: Bernice Lindstrcm, president; Bill Hawkins, vice-president; Kenneth Lundbcrg, secretary; Robert Knudson, treasurer; and Kenneth Loop, representative at large. As the Class pride grew, many messages were sent tc the big cities and towns roundabout for samples of their fine jewelry; and at last the Class professed itself to be satisfied with its choice, and rings were purchased. After rings were purchased the next big problem was pictures. The girls freed themselves of this problem early in the fall while the boys carried it with themselves until the spring. After a lot of practice and hard work, on Ilarch 4th. the Class presented to the people a great and wonderful play, Home— Again Harry . On Friday May 13th. the Class gave a sport dance at Lun- deen’s. Everyone had a good time even though it was the jinx day . One bright and early spring morning we wended our way to Maloney's Grove, there tc be away from school one whole day, free from all worries of tests and classes. Nov the time approe.ched which ha.d long been looked for; Class Day, Baccalaureate Services and the Commencement Exercises.

Musical tunes are hard to produce, But they fell before William Hasko; He can produce any tune you choose, Hail I to the mighty maestro. A former drugstore soda clerk, Has captured fame and glory; Among Bill Hawkins recent works Is the day's most popular lovestory. Linnea Halldin is informing natives The difference in right from wrong. Her teachings, they say, are creative Of enlightening the heathen throng. Five year plans did come and go; But the last one--it took seed. Rebellions arose and blook did flow, But Julia Onustack made it succeed. Pursued by misfortune and hunted by fate; Altheia Johnston won her degree. She rose early and studied late; She is now a doctor of philosophy. Pearl Sholberg is reigning in Hollywood; From the stage to cinema fame she climbed. Her old maid roles are really good And as a grandmother she is divine. The nation is ruled by a woman; Pauline Mitchell is the womens' choice| Sad and depressed is no one, Because of her musical voice. Harry Whitford h?.s become a botonist, A wizzard with plants and weeds. He recently compiled a catalog, On the first and origin of seeds. Allver Olson is a celebrity. His name is trimmed with fame, He wrote a book on integrity; And excelled in the writing game. Bernice Lindstrom has discovered the fountain of youth; She looks to be sweet sixteen. She is putting her looks to commercial use By endorsing a beauty cream. Don McLean is a War correspondent. He has reported fourteen wars. The public will never become despondent As long as it has his reliable source.
