CITY TDEWWQRWICK - 4 I THREE HUNDPEDTH ANNIVERSARY YEAR XJ MJ KJ MR. AND MRS. Mrs.-It's a long time since we graduated from Lockwood High School, but I can remember it, can't you? Mr.-Well, it's awfully hazy. I can't remember what it looked like: I can't remember many of my teachers or my schoolmates: but I remember how I felt when I graduated-like saying goodbye forever to an old friend. Mrs.-It's just some particular classes that I recall. I forget what grade it was, but once we had an English class of all girls. We formed a club and called it Girlville Exclusive, and we used to go on all kinds of excursions to- gether. That was when Miss Wallace was teaching and before half of our class went into a new school. We missed them: school just wasn't the same without them. Mr.-Yes, we certainly had a good time in school. Were you in my Early European History class? Mrs.-You mean the one that Mr. Fernald taught? I was in that one. I'll never forget it if I live to be a hundred years old. Mr.-Oh, I'll remember it longer than two years more. Remember We're nigh on to one hundred. But it seems like yesterday that we were enacting the scene from our history book where a vassal swore the oath of allegiance to his master. Let me see-seems like that girl's name was Avis something- or-other. She was the lord. and that boy named-oh, what was his name? Mrs.-I'm not sure but I think it was Brown, He was the vassal. Re- member how the kids in the next room thought he was proposing to her because he was down on his knees in front of her. Mr.-I remember how everybody laughed so hard they had tears in their eyes. Mrs.-We used to laugh and have fun in lots of our classes, didn't we? Remember The Great White Father? We had more fun in his class than in any other. His name was Mr. Flanagan wasn't it? I still smile when I remember the way he looked when he came into class one day and we all got up and bowed down to him. That's when we started to call him The Great White Father, Mr.-I still remember some of the poems he made us learn when we didn't behave. I wonder if Bob Fisher likes poetry now. Mr. Flanagan tried so hard to make him like it. I could go on for hours remembering such choice little incidents of my school-life that I recall, but it's eight-thirty and we must be getting to bed. We're not as young as we used to be, you know. Mrs.-Yes. I almost wish I had some homework to do. My mother used to have to beg me to do it: but she wouldn't have to now. No, sir' Mr.-I'd much rather be worrying about tomorrow's chemistry exam, instead of worrying about that great-grandson of ours. He just won't go to school. Mrs.-Huh! We were just like it when we were his age. Didn't know what we were missing.
