Miss Lincolnian and her attendants have shown their royal blood in their excellent sales record. Miss Mildred Robinson, the Queen, reigns stately over the Class of ' 41. We bow humbly before her. Page Seven Also in the royal limelight are Miss Lillie Bryant and Miss Laurice Hestle, second and third of the contestants. The total subscriptions of all three young ladies were exceedingly close. This year ' s race proved to be the most exciting for Queen in years. Our salutations to all of the other contestants whose ener- getic efforts made possible the Lincolnian of 1941. ICGSIA worthy, and dependable. He has made an outstanding name for himself in the com- munity as well as in school. Ruth Brashears, a member of Mr. Bryant ' s Advisory has fulfilled the position of treas- urer admirably. She is an honor student and served as cashier on the Business Staff. Lincoln High; School corridorsj are still echoing) the: I proposed to set forth . . . , If I am elected . . Fellow students, now is the time . . . , and the many j campaign platforms taken by the j candidates running for offices of the class. The Senior Advisories, tense Ruth Merritt, a member of Miss Smother ' s group, has assisted Caroll Tolbert as secretary. Jerry Evans, a captain in the R. O. T. C., is an honor student. One of the most successful undertakings of the class was the establish- ment of Senior HQurs. These were hours spent after school by Seniors in the hope of getting better acquainted with each other. The inauguration of this entertainment was a very colorful affair. While the band played the Senior Class members walked by twos, under sabers held high by Senior R. O. T. C. Officers. President Pittman made his inaugural address, and other Seniors participated in the program. Among them were: Caroll Tolbert, master of ceremonies; Ruth Brashears, piano player, and Dorothy and concentrated as each candidate marched in and delivered his speech, cast their ballots, and elected the following: President, Keith Pittman; Vice-President, Paul Gray; Secretary, Caroll Tolbert; Assistant Secre- tary, Ruth Merritt; Treasurer, Ruth Brashears, and Sergeant-at-Arms, Jerry Evans. I Keith Pittman, a member of Miss Smothers ' Advisory Group, is an honor student, Major in the R. O. T. C., and one-time President of the Student Council. He served as a Councilman during High School Day at the City Hall. Wilburn and Josie Silvers, dancers. The Senior Class of ' 41 has thor- oughly enjoyed itself.. Much of our advancement was due to aid from our Senior Ad- visors and we appreciate it j deeply. Paul Gray, Vice-President, is from Miss Rhodes ' group. He is a student of many professed abilities. He has served as an enthusiastic team manager, played on football and basket ball teams, and he is a winning track star. He has the students ' admiration and respect. Caroll Tolbert — the Sleniors ' Juniors ' , Sophomores ' and teachers ' friend — is a member of Miss Wynbush ' s Advisory. The first year in high school marked him as loyal, trust- Page Eight fillSI ■■■■ I II Page Ten ADAMS Girl Reserves ADAMS Special Deputy Boosters ALEXANDER Student Council ALLEN a Cappella Choir ALNUTT Dramatics Choir ANTHONY APPLETON Choir ' 39, ' 40 National Honor Society BAILEY Basket Ball Track ' 40 BAKER Student Council Deputy Committee BATES Girl Reserves BASKERVILLE Dramatics Choir BEARD BELTON R.O.T.C.

That our attempts at successfulness May pay homage to Lincoln ' s name. After four long and happy years, we stand on the threshold of Lincoln High ' s door for the last time ready to pick up our life-strings and assume places of worth that are creditable to those who have helped us step this far. As we entered Lincoln High, we brought our share of honor students, leaders and athletic stars. Bright were our faces as we walked through the beautiful corridors and then into our various classrooms. This marked a new period in our youth, a period in which we were to grasp much knowledge. Frisky Mildred Franklin leaves her friskiness to Vivian Gaskin. To Lois Arnold, Flora Baskerville leaves her poise (dramatics). To Doris Younge, Lillie Bryant ' leaves her voice (dramatics). To the oncoming Seniors, Ruth Brashears and Shirley Thomas leave their pads and pencils for shorthand. Frances Anne Davis leaves her norf-seriousness to Freida Longshaw. Serious may she never be. Spanish speaking Kathleen Julius leaves Virginia Wilson the ability to continue speaking Spanish. Vincent Carter leaves his genteelness to William Dancey to prove the days of Chivalry have not passed. In the Sophomore year, those crossing the line with high scholastic rank were: Lavern Merritt, Yolande Meek, Willie B. Mitchell, Eula Mae Fisher and Jerry Evans. Laurice Hestle became the first Sophomore Vice-President of the Student Council. Gene Burwell made his debut as a track star. Such boosters as Rosie Blair, Ruth Royal, Dora Ella Martin, Bernice Appleton, John Ware and Tracy Scott cheered the football and basket ball teams to victory. Edward Caruth leaves his dramatic ability to Monroe Gilmore. To Zel la Mae Moten, June Williams leaves her acrobatic ability. Lois Payne leaves to Ann Watkins her modesty. To Mr. George Ellison, the Senior class leaves a silver plated fog horn and a siren for a little extra. Td Roy Miller, Oliver Reid leaves the right halfback position for greater glory. In a few short months we were Juniors. We gave our Junior play, Something Old, Something New, an entertaining musical comedy. During the year, the orchestra held such ardent musicians as: Kathleen Julius, Cozetta Dewey, Eddie McClelland, James Herndon, Odell Sylvester and Paul Gray. Members of A Cappella Choir were: Mary Dixon, Burnell Franklin, Fannie Lovingood, Charlene Coulter, Doris Green, Aaron Johnson and Clarence West. Honor Students were: r Yolande Meek, Lavern Merritt, Carmen Robinson, Lois Payne, Wilbert Howell and Keith Pittman. September, ' 41, we were Seniors. Our last happy year here, and we endeavored to mak e the most of it, and as a result: we took honored places in school drives; we gave Lincoln a charming Homecoming Queen in the person of Carmen Robinson. We gave our support to the establishment of the school newspaper, headed by Marguerite Johnson; we had some gallant officers in R. O. T. C., such as: Vincent Carter, Jerry Evans and Bernard Bryant, with Keith Pittman, Major; a dynamic basket ' ball team, captained by Mallory Walker; a Senior play with a two starred cast, consisting of alluring Ruth Royal and captivating Lillie Bryant, both as Karen Andre in The Night of January 16th ; and a Senior Class consisting of 174. members, loyal, courageous and determined. And at the close of a perfect four years of longing we prepare to leave Lincoln High, treasuring every moment until the end. Marilyn Williams leaves her deputy pin to Virginia Wilson. To Wand a Collins we leave a few points on How to Keep Him, so she will not have to worry so much about that lucky TOMORROW (Turn to Page In he March, 1955, issue of The Star, I came across the names of several old classmates. First, I looked over an article about Yolande Meek who had entertained some of her former teachers with a luncheon. Miss Smothers, Miss Claggett and Mr. Jefress were present at the luncheon. They talked over old times. The air of the conversation made a whirlpool around music. Miss Meek probably blew it that way. Another article informed me Miss Frances Alnutt, surgical nurse, was working with Dr. Flora Baskerville on the serious case of an infant girl. I remarked to myself: Two female heads to- gether; it ' s bound to come out a success. Ruth Brashears was scheduled to play a two night perform- ance at Ciro ' s, a swanky place in California, tickling the ivories. Co-starring with her was June Williams, dancing. Lillian Dolman had an ad in the paper. She has one of the swankiest dress shops in California. Miss Dolman does her own designing. TODAY Close by, another ad read: Brookins, the Photographer. Martin always loved photography. He probably had always dreamed of a large business like this. As we, the students of the good ol ' class of ' 41, leave Lincoln to make our way in the world, we feel it our duty to tradition and to those honorable students we leave behind us, to bequeath our qualities, characteristics, and best wishes to them. First, to Mr. Dunlap we leave some new tales, since the old ones are getting rather boresome. To Mr. West, we leave a book on How to Win Friends and Keep Them, when they start taking Chemistry. To Mrs. Edwards, we leave a pair of hip restorers so she ' ll not wear out her sides. To the Boosters we leave the place of cheer to someone who will do as good a job as Rosie Blair. To Merrill Charles, we leave some new jokes so that he may really amuse those who are bored with his stale cracks. To Richard Dixon we leave the place Gene Burwell played (Many Girl Admirers). Clarence Hill leaves his typing ability to Betty Lou Cespedes. Cleo Wright leaves Yvonne Austin the place of runner-up in typing with first place now and then. Mallory Walker leaves Jack Bush and Leonard Thurman a basket ball, so they may continue victorious for Lincoln. To Marva Jean Tivine, Mirian Walder leaves the chance just to be in a play. I came across a very interesting letter written by Miss Mar- garet Johnson, editor of the Nebraska Herald, to the editor of the Star. I laid the paper aside and prepared to attend the evening performance of the symphony concert. Vincent Carter ' s orchestra was starred, with Ruth Royal as soloist. And believe it or not, Kathleen Julius was on the front row playing the violin. I had to shake hands with Mr. Carter, and in the course of the con- versation, I learned that Carroll Tolbert was a banker in Omaha, Maurice Caldwell, a postal clerk, and on the door of a nearby office was inscribed Paul Gray, lawyer. The next day I received, through the mail, an invitation from Mr. and Mrs. Donald Fields (Marian Walder), asking me to spend the week-end with them in their cottage in California. I accepted with pleasure, ' for close by was a cottage with an interior of my own desi gn. While there I visited one of the schools, and, to my surprise, Eula Mae Fisher was a teacher of History; James Campbell was principal. Miss Fisher informed me that Fannie Lovingood was a laboratory technician in Boston. I returned home and visited dear oT Lincoln High school. I just had to go visit Miss Boswell, but she wasn ' t there. In her place was Laurice Hestle. I never dreamed I would come upon so many of my school- mates but I was glad to see them doing many different things. — Lillie Bryant, Class of ' 41.

Page Nineteen BUSINESS STAFF Under the capable supervision of Mr. Mayberry, the Business Staff had each of its members solicit Ads from various business concerns which made the contest for Business Manager highly competitive. Advertisement has played an important role this year. The Business Staff secured the largest volume of advertising in the history of the Lincolnite. Other departments of the Business Staff functioned as smoothly. Secretary, Bessie Pierce; Asst. Manager, Lucile King; Associates: Tracy Scott, Mildred Franklin; Circulation Department: Manager, Andrew Howard; Asst. Man- ager, Barbara Burton; Associates: Maxine Cooper, Wayne Nelson, Henrietta Tellis, Helen Brown, Eula Fisher; Asst. Cashier, Ruth Royal; Asst. Auditor, Fannie Lovingood; Typists: Sarah Price, Marion Walder. EDITORIAL STAFF The Editor-in-Chief, Miss Marguerite Johnson, and the Sponsor, Mr. Bryant, ably assisted by the staff have put together each little piece to this giant “jig-saw” puzzle to make it a pictorial record of student life. An unusual contest was held in April, and each student desiring to be on the Editorial Staff designed a dummy. Miss Johnson’s dummy was judged the best. Miss Willa B. Mitchell, Photograph Editor, ranked second; Miss Laurice Hestle, Organizations Editor, third; Miss Bernice Richardson, Art Editor, fourth; Miss Carmen Robinson, Technical Editor, fifth; Miss Lillie Bryant, Literary Editor, sixth; and Miss Frances Edwards, Sports Editor, seventh. Technical workers and typists have contributed to this book to make it unique among Lincolnians. Page Twenty The club year 1940-41, GIRL RESERVES saw many interesting, intellectual, and entertaining STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council, the governing body of the school in 1940-41, gave to the students a Junior candidate for President. events for Girl Reserve members. As Junior workers of the Y. W. C. A., such projects as Candle lighting services, Christmas party. Palm Sunday breakfast, Birthday celebration, Pie and Cake walk, and Mother and Daughter reception were held. This year the Council participated in the governing of our city for one day, namely High School Day, when some of our students were king for a day. Odell Sylvester was chosen candidate for mayor. Although he was not a winner, his enthusiasm is worthy of mention here. Keith Pittman was elected City Councilman for a day. This was quite an experience for these boys. SENIOR OFFICERS ARE: President Marguerite Johnson Program Chairman Margaret Ann Motin Treasurer Helen Brown Social Chairman Gaynella Stevenson Publicity Chairman Margaret Rucker Inter-Club-Council Representative Willa B. Mitchell The Student Council has deputized the corridors, provided music for the cafeteria, furnished each room with a flag. President William Dancy Assistant Secretary Wilburta Howell Vice-President Roscoe Hayden Sergeant-at-Arms Eddie Saunders Secretary Jacqueline Green Treasurer Bobetta Sypes Page Twenty-one The new instructor in the music Department, Mr. -Williams, found the students very adaptable to real music. The group has made appearance at assembly programs, and church pro- grams. This so very recently organized useful organization is what every city with youth needs. The Jr. N. A. C. P. has done more than any other organization for our own race. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, proves even the title is worthy of all interest. The new president, Lillie Bryant, has made the success of this organization possible. WV-h. ' v v i Mr. Morrison ' s SENIOR CLASS PLAY of 1941, put forth its dramatic ability so well this year that no other class has duplicated it in the past. The play, The Night of January 16th, was highly dramatic. Two performances were given. The two leading ladies, Lillie Bryant and Ruth Royal, in the part of Karen Andre, ably assisted by the cast, proved good acting still exists. Page Twenty-two The Majorettes were first organized by Mr. Cordell Norman and Miss Novella Jackson. In the first year, they made quite a reputation for themselves. At the end of the year Miss Jackson left Lincoln High to marry. 1941 brought a new sponsor, Miss Guinivere Guy, who has worked with Mr. Norman. In the future years Majorettes of Lincoln High will continue to be successful. — By a Majorette, Carmen Robinson. Lincoln High School ' s instrumental music began branching out with the organization of the band and the orches- tra under the direction of Mr. Smith. The assembly programs were lifted to a higher standard with the music by the orchestra. A group of both boys and girls playing the various instru- ments, added a tremendous variety to the appearance as well as a new synco- pation to their music. The Students have sincerely enjoyed Lincoln High School ' s Orchestra and Band. R. O. T. C. training offers many advantages to a boy of today. Sergeant Banks has taken advantage of this by training every R. O. T. C. private and officer to perfection. Keith Pittman, as major, has successfully mastered the military tactics so important when Pur country is at a crisis. Page Twenty-three Page Twenty-five QTUSQ ODE TO LINCOLN HIGH In short lament or dirge I say Four long years I have toiled for thee To approach the throng on promotion day A world of knowledge confronting me. I have borne you through thick and thin; ' Tis true I grew tired along the way, But knowing a reward was at the end I trod through the hours of each day. To you I came for a solid base To place me for a future bright, And as I stand here face to face I ' ll swear you ' ve done what ' s right. I must go now and get my robe, My board, and it awaits for me. This poem to some is a Morse Code But to the wise, it ' s thanks to Thee. — James Campbell. HATS OFF TO LINCOLN Hats off to Lincoln, Is the song we have sung _ And the memory of its melody Will last for years to come. Hats off to Lincoln, We seniors must go; Don ' t think we want to leave, But we really must, you know. Hats off to Lincoln, Seems the only thing to do, So take your opportunity now Juniors, For your time is coming, too. — Carmen Robinson. SO LONG L. H. S„ SO LONG So long L. H. S., so long, The time has come and we are gone, We ' ve had our thrill upon this hill, But the time has come, so long. So long, to those high school days, To those hours we have slaved To keep the stride to save our hide, So long L. H. S., so long. You ' ve made our life so gay, We ' ve had some time to play, Each day we prayed for this great day, So we could say, so long. So long to the ringing of bells, To the horrible Chemistry room smells; So long to the beautiful walls, To those long concrete halls. We say so long, and not goodbye, For if we did, we ' d almost die; We ' ll be lonesome when we ' re gone, But yet it ' s time to say so long. — Edward Carruth. GOODBYE Through days of joy or years of pain, To serve thee e ' er will be our aim; And when we say our last goodbye; We ' ll always love Dear Lincoln High. —Floyd Hill. FAREWELL DEAR -LINCOLN! ! Farewell, dear Lincoln, we are leaving you, It ' s due to your help that we so do, This class of ' 41 leaves you with a sigh But with memories of dear Lincoln High. In Memory of Mr. Cook, Among the finest type of gents; When you need lunch money, He ' ll lend you fifteen cents. In Memory of Mr. Ellison, A teacher very bright; Meant for what he stood for And stood for what is right. In Memory of Miss Brydie, As cheerful as a bird, Whenever she would greet you, She ' d say a cheerful word. In Memory of all our teachers Who struggle with us through pain To help us win this victory To develop a higher name. So Good Bye, dear old Lincoln Our eyes are full of tears, Our hearts are over burdened To have to part this year. — Irene Martin. SONG OF A DREAMER Oh, I love to lie in the shade of a tree With a rippling stream close by, And dream of the things I ' m going to be And do before I die. First a poem I ' ll write of nature sublime And in oils I ' ll paint this tree; Not today, of course, but in a short time When the urge will come to me. There ' s a symphony, now running through my mind, And a plot for a novel that ' s new, I ' ll be hailed as the century ' s greatest find. Yes, I ' ve plenty of work to do! But day after day I ' ll come and lie In the shade of this old Willow Tree, And I ' ll dream and I ' ll pl ow the hours by, While the stream just laughs at me. But years roll by, I ' ll be an old man. With none of my dreams come true, For it ' s so much nicer to lie and plan, Than to get up and ' go and do. — Paul Gray. STUDENTS I WARN YOU: Don ' t ditch school and be in fights; Don ' t participate in things that aren ' t right. Come to school and stay in sight, Learn to be a loyal Lincolnite. To go to school is a wonderful thing, For at promotion time you will have a class ring. And if you don ' t get a ring, it won ' t be a sin, For you will still have that old class pin. When you graduate, don ' t quit school, For you will only be some person ' s tool. Go to college and get further education, Then you will not be on the road of starvation. If you can ' t go to college, Then take up a trade;. If you don ' t, Out of this world you will gradually fade. — losie Silvers, Class of ' 41 Page Twenty-six MY -BEST EXPERIENCE DURING MY YEARS IN LINCOLN It was in my Junior year when I had one of the greatest experiences of my four years in high school. I was invited to attend a conference at Westport High School. I thought I knew just what my life ' s ambition, Teaching, would be like. It was very shocking to find out that I knew but very little about it. But after going from one room and teacher to another, I had a pretty good idea what I would have to do to get to the top shelf of my Life ' s Ambition. I returned with a resolution to do all within the limits of my ability to prepare myself fully for my life ' s ambition — teaching. —Willie B. Mitchell. FINDING A PLACE Since school is almost out, temporarily for some, permanently for others, it is only fitting that we consider the future activities of those graduating. Many students will be going off to school in September, but others won ' t be able to make it. Let us speak of these less fortu- nate ones who cannot continue their education in the manner in which they wish. Many students leave school without the proper training for jobs calling for skill and an understanding of what they are attempting to do. Now that the National Defense program has been put into action it will give many students a great chance to fulfill their dreams. By going to school and learning a skill and getting a job because of their ability and not discriminated against because of color, this end can be accomplished. Color is one of the main hindrances at the present time, but it has been, and is being, gradually set aside. We are getting more chances than we had before. It is my belief that all of the students in the future will have a much greater opportunity to get jobs and be able to live instead of just existing, as in the past. — Wesley Ellington. MR. SENIOR ' S HEAD While visiting Dr. Monteau ' s laboratory the other day, I noticed a stack of papers and peculiar looking objects in bottles. I immediately became curious and went over to the table to in- vestigate. Upon my discovery I found that Dr. Monteau had been experimenting on a Senior ' s head and the stack of papers were his results. The first picture attracted my attention. It was the picture of the Senior. I asked Dr. Monteau to explain this experiment to me. He said that Senior ' s head consisted of the skull or cranium which contained the brain and the face. In the skull eight bones were connected together by sutures having tooth like serrated margins which fit into or overlap each other. The whole structure is marvelous for its lightness. At the very top of Senior ' s head, about three inches were vacant. I was surprised at this, but Dr. Monteau said that the space would be filled as it learned more. Then Dr. Monteau opened a bottle which contained Senior ' s brains. It seemed all tangled up with little gray particles scattered here and there. There were million of little scars, all over the brain. Too much thinking had caused these scars. Dr. Monteau emphasized the fact that all Seniors had the same amount of brains only some were a little more scattered than others. Being weak minded, I told Dr. Monteau that I didn ' t care to look any more at his experiments. We left the laboratory and went to his office. Laying on his desk were the conclusions of the same experiment. He read them to me. The gist of it all was — Senior had worked hard for eleven years in school. There had been much strain 1 on his head in the freshman and sophomore years, but he sort of declined in his work in the junior and senior years. On the whole he had worked very hard and deserved all the credit that was due him. I thanked Dr. Monteau for giving me his valuable time. I left the laboratory feeling very happy over what I had just learned about Senior ' s head. — Lois E. Payne. CLASS OF NINETEEN FORTY-ONE N is for the Nice things we have done. I is for the Ideals we are leaving behind. N is for our class Number one hundred. E is for the Eagerness with which we have accepted our work. T is how True we have been to dear Lincoln. E is for indicating that we have been Ever Ernest. E is for Energetic pursuit of our ideals. N is for the Neat way we have kept our building. F is for the Fun we have had. O is for the Obedience we have tried to give our teachers. R is for the Respect we have for the faculty. T is for every Thing we have been taught. Y is for the happy three Years we have spent at Lincoln. O is for the Onward path to success which we hope to follow. N is for the good Nature that every senior possesses. E is for the dearest and most precious Experience we have had. Put them all together and you are bound to get Nineteen Forty-one. — Carmen Robinson, Class of ' 41.

' 41 basket ball squad FOOTBALL The 1941 school year saw some pretty good football. Due to financial difficulties, the football team was un- able to take any trip, but the games that were played on the old gridiron were exciting. Our first game was Lincoln versus the Alumni. We lost this game but the loss only built up a stronger morale within the team. The next game against Lexington was a Blue Tiger victory. The next two games, with Columbia and Sumner, brought the following scores: Columbia 9 — Lincoln 7; Sumner 6 — Lincoln 0.

They were quite popular with the student body. Our Chief Tumblers Were: Richard Ewell Roscoe Hayden Mallory Walker Edward Luther Robert Marshall Andrew Wise Albert Hay us James Miller Page Thirty GIRLS SPORTS SWIMMING One thing that the gym teachers are impressing upon the girls this year is to learn to swim. Miss Guy and her assistants (a few of the good swimmers of the different classes) are teaching the girls to swim. A few of her students that are learning to swim are Dorothy Gardner, Mable Killingsworth, Clytee Jones, and Norma Rand. They are making progress. Miss Guy also has trained life savers who act in case of an emergency. They are Geraldine Ham- bright, from the Junior College, and Helen Baxter, from the Junior Class. QUIET GAMES The girls of Miss Rhodes ' gym classes have en- joyed a great number of quiet and active games while she was out of school. If the girls don ' t play an active game, they can enjoy Chinese checkers, plain checkers, bingo, dominoes, jack letters, and sticks. Some of the active games that they play are ping pong or table tennis, paddle tennis, bottle ball, Mr. Jeffress: If John had four pies and gave two away, son, how many would he have left? Son: He wouldn ' t have any left! Mr. Jeffress: Oh, but he would have two left. Son: Not if he was hungry! Seniors practicing on graduation song in assembly: Mr. Williams: All sopranos sit in rear, altos sit in middle section and bass sit in front row. Buddy: Mr. Williams, where do the ones sit that sing out of tune? A new teacher came into a small town one day and was in- quiring as to the location of the school. Being a new arrival in this place, he was mixed in his direction. He saw a little boy sitting on the curb and said to him: Little boy, how far am I from the school? Boy: I do not know. Teacher: What street is this? Boy: I do not know. Teacher (disgusted): Do you know where you are? Boy: No, but I ' m not lost. Teacher: Little boy, if you show me the way to the post office, I ' ll show you the way to Heaven. Little Boy: If you don ' t know the way to the post office, you don ' t know the way to heaven. Mr. Jeffress: Why don ' t you study your Geometry, Carol? You know the test is tomorrow. Carol: I should worry! Mr. Jeffress: I know — but you never do! table shuffle board, indoor horse shoes, aerial darts, hand ball, and a game composed by the class, which they call hockey golf. When the weather is favorable they play soft ball out of doors. DANCING Miss Guy is teaching the Majorettes to dance as well as march. These girls enjqy their dancing and cooperate with her very well. They have advanced a great deal in their dancing and were asked to appear at the fashion show on May 28. The Senior Class wishes to encourage more girls to get in the dancing classes. Sorry Miss Guy was reluctant to give an interview about her favorite avocation. SOFT BALL GAMES The girls have played soft ball in the gym classes throughout the year. The fourth hour class played against the third hour, leaving the score a tie. Some of the outstanding ball players of the fourth hour were Mildred Walker, Phillis Hicks and Juanita Anderson. TODAY (Cont.) To Beulah Vaughan we leave a big room with a board full of shorthand so she may yell out every word she knows. To Mr. Bryant we leave more board space so he may demon- strate with his drawings, his work. To Muriel Ellis we leave the studiousness of Yolande Meek. Laurice Hestle leaves a cafeteria to the one that enjoys eating more often and more than she does. Frances Alnutt leaves her position, as secretary to Mr. Griffin, to the one that likes to take .time off. To Mr. Jackson, the shorthand and typing IV classes leave a book on Your Kindness Has Been Appreciated. Bernice Richardson leaves her fine arts to Dollie Smith. To Eddie Saunders we leave just the memory of Odell Sylvester. To those who fell and failed to graduate we leave the book entitled How to Get a Diploma. Fannie Lovingood, representing the Chemistry class, leaves the Chemistry Laboratory to the next Chemistry class. Wilberta Howell leaves Grace Julius her book on How I Got a Bit Taller. To the girls of the oncoming classes, Dorothy Stewart leaves her pleasing personality and lovely smile. To Muriel Chapman, Maxine Cooper leaves her dignity and poise hoping she will use it. To Geraldine Haynes, Carmen Robinson leaves her drilling ability, and hopes she will learn to twirl better than any Majorette in Greater Kansas City. To all students we leave the opportunity to appreciate and grasp all they can for their own good. — Lillie Bryant, Class of ' 41. Page Thirty- one The 1941 Lincolnian is unique in that it is entirely the product of Senior effort. For the first time Seniors have completely planned their yearbook, made their own photographs, printed titles, posed for covers, produced and corrected copy, planned page layouts and actually made them. The Seniors have also marketed the yearbook and obtained sufficient advertising to guarantee its financial success. The combined business and editorial staff wishes to thank the sponsors of the yearbook, the Senior advisers, Miss Claggett, the head of the art department, Mr. Morrison, and all others who helped make the 1941 Lincolnian a success. Page Thirty-two candles for ONE NIGHT cost more than your electric light for a M HOLE MONTH Washington once gave a ball for which the candles cost over seventy dollars. Of course this was an extraordinary expense, the average evening ' s candles cost much less than that, and yet they cost more than the average monthly cost of electricity to light our modern homes. Tallow candles burned fast, and had to be replaced at least once in the course of an evening. They cost about a penny apiece. Kansas City Power 6 ?
