This makes a very embarrassing situation for Mr. Stepsome for his fiancee, Margaret Styles, refuses to have anything to do with him. In order to win back her love, John Stepsome decides to ive a big dinner in honor of her birthday. He engages the well known dietitian, Lotta Fat, to arrange and: prepare the meals. He chooses for his guests an ill sorted group. The three acts reveal them just before and after dinner on the evening of their arrival and on the following morning. Their brief associa- tion becomes an unbroken series of hilarious tragedies. This play brought forth genuine hilarious laughter at its New York production and is warmly recommended to furnish an evening of highly amusing enter- tainment for your local theatregoers. 1933 Page Twenty-:even

WIN-NEL SALUTATORY HELEN SPLINTER In behalf of the Senior Class of 1933, I welcome you as a guest at this, our com- mencement. We believe that this program climaxes all our school year activities and to us, personally, this certainly should be a milestone in our lives. Those of you who have graduated know the joy and sorrow that is ours tonight-joy to think that we have successfully completed a worthy task and sorrow to think that for most of us, our school days are over. School days are overfilled with memories. Each personally must pass judgment if those memories are pleasant or not. Ours is a class of rural school pupils. Upon our entrance to high school we numbered only fifteen. Ten of that number are here on this platform tonight. Four others have joined us since then. We have become accustomed to the fact that we were always the smallest class in schoolg but that has never lessened our ambitions. Have we not been very successful in scholastic work, and play pro- duction and were not three members of this year's basketball team from our class? Have we not successfully issued another publication of the Winnel? Such achieve- ments have not been easy, but we are proud of the confidence and courage which has been shown by our class through these years of effort. School days mean days of work. Occasionally we find a student attending high school who proclaims he does not work. Usually such a student finds that his school days are numbered or else he must begin anew. I, personally, find that the reward follows effort. School days mean days of acquaintances and friendship. It means living with other people. During this time we have found many new friends. The friendship which we have formed will last through life. We have learned to consider the wishes of others. We have mingled with others. Are not these things a source of success and happiness in later life? - School days mean days of preparation. During this time our likes and dis- likes have pointed to our future work. The subjects in which we are interested, the activities in which we participated and our attitude to our work are factors which shall determine whether we shall continue our education. These factors also determine our success in later life. May we, as a class, regard our school days as very worth while. The high school is a typical American institution which is open to rich and poor alike. May it always be such to future generations and may we cherish its con- tinuance. In this real American spirit and in behalf of the class, I extend to you a most cordial welcome to this, another commencement. 933 i Page Twenu-.fix
