Lower Left-Isn't she the sweetest baby you ever saw, and you can still see she retains some of her Baby ways. Center-Who is this sweet little boy? No it is not a boy either. Although she is not wearing her brothcr's clothes she resembles him a great deal. Top Right-Even her early pictures show her large, brown, eyes. She can't hide them yet. Lower Rightm-You can still see marked resemblances to this owner for she still looks so very proud. CSee ad sectionD 9 3 3 r s be Earnest Page Twengf-four

Top II-We're all dressed up in Sunday clothes! Surely you can guess this one by the curls. Top III-Here he looks sweet and innocent but he has lost all those qualities now. Bottom I-This plump baby happens to be .... . Now guess until you get the right one. Bottom II-The background is much different in this picture. Well, it is, for it was taken in the Golden West. She is not sucking her thumb but we know it was a terrible habit she had. Bottom III-Can't you see it in her eyes? She seems quite content to pose for the camera man. We wonder who he was?

W I N - N E L VALEDICTORY BY LEONE STARR Dear Parents, Teachers, and Classmates: With the closing of tonight's activities the high school careers of fourteen young men and women are being brought to a close. This event occurring at a time when our country is in such a state of unrest should bring many questions into our minds. We all realize that as we stand at this meeting point between a bright and event- ful past and an unknown future, that the time has come for us to begin our life's work. Just how we are going to begin this work depends largely on the way that we have prepared ourselves while in high school. We all know that we have had the opportunity for gaining a great amount of knowledge while in school, now the question left for us to ascertain is whether or not we will make use of this knowledge. These questions will soon be answered for when we step forth to take our places as the citizens of tomorrow, we will find that the way is not so bright as it has been in the past. The task of proving yourself a good citizen in this day is going to be much more difficult than it has been in past years, for the problems which wc are going to meet are numerous and large. If we are going to make our lives successful it would be well for us to consider some of these questions which we will have to face. Our first great problem is going to be that of unemployment. What are we graduates going to do now that we have finished our high school careers? If we cannot obtain employment we still should make valuable use of our time and educa- tion. The next great problem is the financial crisis, which we will have to meet with a clear understanding if we are going to have any part in solving it. Then the repeal of the 18th amendment and with it the moral issue. Is the piece of legislation which again brought this question into view going to make the morals of our country any worse? These are the questions which we must recognize,for that is what our education has been preparing us for. Such questions as these will require citizens of a much higher standard than they have been in the past-they will require citizens who are intelligent and who take a part in governing instead of leaving the task to one man. just what is your attitude toward these questions, students? Do you think you can become a good citizen and meet these problems with a determination to settle them in such a way that all will be benefitted? We as a class, of course, cannot settle them but we should be better able to deal with them for having had the training that we have, so let us each do our part and maybe with the combined efforts of millions of others who have realized the value of an education we can make this world a better place in which to live. Now dear classmates the time has come for us to say farewell. This is the last time our class will meet as a body and from now on the name of it will exist only as a memory. We will all probably travel different paths through life but Wher- ever we travel let us always hold in mind that we each have some work to perform during our life and it is our duty to accomplish this in as successful manner as we are able. 193 Page Twenzy-Jive
