THE TREASURE CHEST -- SALUTATIJRY ADDRESS By HELEN EMMONS Members of the Board of Education, Parents and Friends, my classmates have conferred upon me the pleasure and privilege of welcoming you to our Class Night exercises. Your presence here tonight symbolizes to the Class of 19410 the sincere interest you have felt for them during the four years of struggle and hardship to complete their high school education successfully. ln a very short time we shall take a big step forward. Each student is soon to be a member of an innumerable caravan en route to seek the riches of the world without the guidance of our teachers. We passed one milestone when we graduated from grammar school into the intricate workings of high school life. As a group my classmates have striven diligently to satisfy their teachers and themselves. They feel that they are now ready to pass their second milestone. Without the reassurance and understanding of you, our audience here tonight. the people who have been forceful in securing proper facilities for our education, and the general attitude of the surrounding communities, we feel sure we would not have come through with the excellent records obtained in the last four years. We must not look back into the past. We must think only of the present and the future. We are here in acknowledgement of what we have accomplished, but we are also here in the capacity of a group having one last chance to share the friend- ship and enjoyment that we have always found together. We have finished the course that has been given us and we are now ready for a step forward along the pathway of life. What a big thought it is that from now on we have the shaping of our destihies in our own handsl May we walk out into the world bravely with a full realization of all that will be expected of us. And now, once again l extend to you all, in the name of the class of 1940, our most grateful and sincere welcome. A FABEWVELL TRIBUTE By MATILDA ROBCKE Four years ago when we hrst entered the halls of Manasquan High School we found our Supervising Principal. Mr. Crosley, our Principal, Dr. Wcwolstvn, and the members of the faculty awaiting our arrival and ready to guide us through our course of life in this institution. Our path has been a long one and at times hard, but the enthusiasm and kindly interest of the faculty have lightened the hours of lessons and helped to make classroom work a pleasure. Under their faithful leadership, we have climbed to the heights where we stand tonight. Life in Manasquan High School has taught us that education is capitalg and that by investing it wisely we may become factors in the worldis progress. With this truth ever before us, we feel confident that we shall be able to face the problems of the world today. This chapter in Lifels Book is completed and now before the closed doors that confront us are new scenes and associations which we are eager to grasp. Never shall we lose sight of the guiding stars which our teachers and adminis- trators have proved to be. So to our Supervising Principal, Mr. Crosley, our Principal, Dr. Woolson, and to the members of the faculty, we pay this farewell tribute. Then here's a smile for the future, And for our parting. a sigh. Here,s God speed and bon voyage, Eighteen And to all a fond goodbye.

Looking at Kentucky I was surprised to see SAM FRANKLIN as caretaker of a beautiful horse farm. His stable crew consists of MILTON TILTON. HAROLD LONGIEAR. and LEROY .f1Pl'LliGATE. Ten years ago we would have read Emily Post. but now it is KA Y Sl'RAGUE'S famous booklets on MI Do. Do You? ,lust as I was leaving the beautiful blue grass country with the intention of traveling to Florida. a delightful surprise temporarily ended my imaginary trip. CA!llll.LA ECIVMANN, secretary to the Governor of Kentucky, was spending a few days in New York. and had suddenly appeared at my apartment where she would be my guest for several days. On learning what I was doing. she became interested in my search for former classmates and expressed a desire to help me. She will develop the rest of the trip. ltesuming it in the state of Florida. we found that the most popular newspaper. The Whosisf' is edited by MATll,DA ROBCKE and managed by CHARLES ROBIN- SON. One of the interesting features is the daily society column by GRACE VLIET. xx ho advises a new book of poetry by Laisy Daisy. which proves to be the nom de plume of ELIZABETH NEWMAN. The editor of the column, l'Advice to the Love- lorn, is PEGGY ROYAEL. Over at the Morocca Club, DON R1SHIiR'S popular swing band was playing MI Still Love You, Dear composed by COUNCIL MILLER. with a trumpet solo by STANLEY KRAVITZ accompanied by pianist HILL ANDERSON.

Here a large l,I4Ll'lN ALLEN Neon sign directed us to the 'llVlorris Inn. the proprietor being HOB MORRIS. lnquiring within, we learned that IIIYRA STILLE is his very busy hookkeeper. All the vegetables served are from the RAYMOND SCIIANR farm. the largest of its kind in six states. His bookkeeper and manager is little DON .IIC KELVEI' and his secretaries are AUDREY CIFFORD and EVELYN JOHNSTON. Sitting in one corner at a table. were FRANCIS LA YTON.

LEIGHTON has achieved four of the five college degrees she hopes to posses.: and that ANN COMES and ARLINE .1IlTCllEl,l.. are touring Europe. Continuing on to Manasquan. we saw the JIMMY MILLER. We-Sell-and-liuyw lfverything Company. .Iimmy,s success is due to chemist IVALTER IIOLDERERIS discovery of a pencil to fold up when desired, and sale of it to Jimmy. FRIEIJA IVIARFAX was overjoyed to hear this as she has been kept busy composing and rccompanying her own song hits.
