PURE ORD EARBooKs come and go, and with them marches an endless procession of themes. Some are awkward conscripts from remote lands and subjects, others are natural and suitable volunteers. This year's theme is in this latter battalion. The Medina of the past is, and should be, one of the most interesting subjects to the citizens and the younger sons and daugh- ters of this village. In the 1936 Mirror the editors have endeavored by drawings, maps, and articles to re- capture some of the fading and perhaps completely for- gotten early Medina. Besides these features, the 1936 ' 'Mirror contains a complete and enduring record of the school year, omitting no phase of student activity. To present these two subjects has been the dual aim of the Editors. C O N T E N T S if Qfltliiiiiiisttfettioiz, . . . . 12. Cletsses . . .

Until in 1822 Mr. Eggleston, a not too scrupulous contractor, arrived to build the Erie Canal through this section, the future site of Medina was an uncleared woodland. A deep- rutted road that ran from the flourishing village of Barne- gat, or Shelby Center, to Ridgeway was the only trace of civilization. In the train of this canal builder followed fifteen frontier drifters and three barrels of whiskey as working capital. Quickly others of the local settlers were hired for the pro- ject. These men were forced to hew out crude dwellings similar to the one in the illustration to shelter them on their three-year digging task. Soon, in the cluster of cabins about the canal at the foot of Shelby Street, now Main Street, the center of frontier life, a tavern, arrived. This elegant and luxurious hotel, kept by Uri D. Moore, was a structure of logs and rough hewn timbers. With the com- ing of the tavern, Medina was on its way. vkvkflf Not only was the Erie Canal the direct cause of the found- ing of Medina, but it was also one of the chief factors in its growth and prosperity. The stream of commerce that moved on it ranged from black rascality, negro slaves, to all kinds of commodities-all passing through Medina. Moreover, the raceways, which supplied it with water, furnished an excellent source of power for mills and manu- factories, which was first utilized by David E. Evans. In 1825 this man laid the foundations of a stone flour mill, pictured on the left, on the present site of the Bignall plant. Gwinn's Mill, as it was known from the man who soon acquired it, was connected with the canal by a navi- gable raceway behind Shelby Street on the east side. Canal boats would unload their grain at its elevator. This was the forerunner of a long line of mills of every sort from Hedley's saw mill to Becker's oil mill. Pkilsbk Simeon Bathgate, an emigrant from Scotland in 1788, was the founder of one of Medina's chief industries. About 1829, the town's first foundry was built in Center Alley, now Main Street Alley, near the raging Erie. This building, depicted on the left, served for about forty-five years until it was burned. It was the pioneer in a leading phase of Medina's economy. Pk Pls Pk Medina grew rapidly.

In 1829 a post office was established, and three years later Medina was incorporated as a village by the legislature. An Indian agent was also appointed by the government to maintain peace and harmony among its red-skinned charges surrounding Medina, and a night watchman was hired. This completed the framework of local government. Among those prominent in establishing Medina as a political subdivision was Justus Ingersoll, a tanner. In 1826 he came to Medina and built a large brick tannery, shown in the illustration on the right, on East Center Street west of Oak Orchard Creek. However, the tannery business faded out completely, although it was a leading industry with the early settlers, and the building was converted into a flour mill. Justus Ingersoll was also the first post- master of Medina and Indian agent. In addition, he was Justice of the Peace and one of the trustees on the first Village Board. The other members of the Board were N. Sawyer, the Hrst lawyer, Asahel Woodruff, James C. Evans, and Halstead H. Parker. vkvkvk Transportation facilities on land for some years were con- spicuous by their absence. The Erie Canal was the main outlet and the chief means of travel. The roads were nearly impassable to anyone not on horseback, except at favorable times when two-wheeled carts and oxen were used. To meet this condition, in 1834 the Medina 84 Darien Railroad was built. This was a horse car line with rolling stock similar to the picture to the right. However, since its operation proved unprofitable, this road was discon- tinued after a few years. Traces may still be seen of its road- bed. Another railroad venture, the Medina 84 Lake Ontario Railroad, although incorporated, was never built. In 1850 the Rochester, Lockport 8: Niagara Falls Railroad was put through. This now forms a part of the present New York Central System. Dk Bk Pk As roads grew better and the country about Medina was settled, there was a growing demand for wagons and car- riages. Accordingly, in 1849, a carriage factory was estab- lished here by Edward Davey. This building on the right is one of the several that made up this plant. For many years the industry was very successful, but it will never again attain the prosperity it once had. Thus is shown the mutability of human affairs. 7 - , ,YW i'+.-.,M - -,Tir Y ---- L - ...- -1 -'-lMT - H, 111 - xl f- '- as -2-22 :Q .1 'F- sas X-A Y - HH! IIII un my NZ l7 . I Y? , 9 i I I: E?

One of the first of the so-called blocks was the Arcade Building, which was erected some time in the 1840's on the charred ruins of the burned Eagle House. The Arcade Building, which is shown on the left, had many alterations and survived many vicissitudes. At first three stores occupied it, but in the 1870's H. N. Bancroft added a tower to it and changed it to a hotel called the Bancroft House. It was finally burned in 1922, when it was known as White's Hotel. Pk bk if Educational opportunities were extremely scanty in Medina for many years. In 1825 a log cabin was erected to serve as a school. School terms were uncertain, and teachers were more so. Intemperance and ignorance were common faults, since the chief qualification for an instructor was his ability to maintain discipline among the older boys. The first district school was organized in 1835. It was a one story building, which was later enlarged to serve as an arsenal for the local militia. This structure still remains as a barn in the rear of the Walsh House. Not until 1850 did Medina secure a high school or acad- emy, as institutions of learning were then called. Before this date, students from Medina attended the large and flourishing academies at Yates or Millville. The Medina Academy proved an instantaneous success with over five hundred students. A stone building, pictured on the left, was erected and served as the center of learning for about forty-five years in Medina. Fkfkvlf The first citizens of Medina early gave attention to the spiritual needs of life. In 1827 St. Luke's Episcopal Church was incorporated. Shortly afterward the name was changed to St. John's, and the Rev. Richard Salmon was called as the first rector. In 1836 a stone edifice, depicted on the left, was completed. On February 19, 1829 a Baptist Church was organized at Medina as an outgrowth of a weak congregation at Ridge- way Corners. The first minister was the Rev. E. Savage, and the first edifice was dedicated in 1832. The Presbyterian Society in Medina was organized March 19, 1829 with the Rev. George Coan as first pastor. The first church to be built in Medina was erected in 1832 by this organization. The Methodist Episcopal Church in Medina was formed on September 27, 1830 with the Rev. Thomas Harker as first minister. In 1833 a stone church was built. In 1849 the Roman Catholics began to hold regular serv- ices with the Rev. John Boyle as first priest. 8 Y . Nothing has spread abroad the name of Medina more wide- ly than the sandstone that takes its name from this town. Buildings, pavements, and curbs broadcast it throughout the eastern part of the United States. The business of quarrying this stone has been a leading industry about Medina since 1837. The honor of its dis- covery is uncertaing John Ryan and Artemas Allen are rival claimants. The existence of the stone, however, was known long before their time. When excavating for the abutments of one of the bridges over the canal, it was first found. Very mistakenly, as it turned out, it was thought that it would not withstand exposure from the weather, so stone was imported at great cost. Such is the irony of events. When once the durability and the utility of Medina sand- stone were recognized, quarries similar to the one in the picture were opened in the vicinity. The layers of sandstone run from a few inches in width to about four feet, and may be worked with ease. During the last few years, however, the depression has cut deeply into this important industry. bkvkvk In the days before the automobile, when distances seemed longer than they seem now, the need for hotels in small towns was greater. It is not surprising, therefore, to learn that in the 1840's and 185O's, Medina boasted from three to five first-class hostelries. One of the spots wholly de- voted to this business was the corner of Shelby and Center Streets. Here, Otis Turner built the Medina House. In the 1850's the hotel on the corner, depicted on the right, was called Paddock's Hotel. Later, this became the site for the Union Bank Building. Ikfkvk Life was a serious business to the settlers and the older residents of Medina. The main diversions, if they can be so called, were attending church and listening to political speeches. Thus, it was not until rather late in its history that Medina secured a so-called opera house. Even then the features represented in Bent's Opera House, which is shown on the right, would seem decidedly humdrum to our more sophisticated taste. On one night might be seen Rentz's Minstrels, which employed no indecent dress- ing or undressing and which might be attended with al- most as much profit as divine worship. On another night the original Buffalo Bill would hold forth, while on still another occasion Professor Reynold would mystify the populace with mesmerism. Gilbert and Sullivan, Uncle Tom's Cabin, East Lynne, and Ten Nights in a Bar- room were the most popular dramatic fare. 9 f c- -A-,ea e ,vliinn ..-2 ., a 4 wg ,, - lun B 53 wa 1 Ng- nu, ,My HI lrdl fw Q if-. 14,1 -K 2- L I luslluiu rmnizlglum yi? it Mx' mlm -i lllll T ll U Z g!! ! ! 5 4 um! , r---f 1--T F ?

'SARA TEASDALE BOOK I The 506001 Y MR. ARTHUR E. TRIPPENSEE, A.B., M.A. Superintendent of Scbaalx When a new school administration assumes the knotty task of guiding a modern high school, almost invariably it meets with criticism. To this rule, Mr. Trippensee, out new supetintendent,has served a happy exception. By his candor, his tact, his sparkling sense of humor, and his considera- tion for the welfare of others-as evidenced by his noon- hour recreational projects and his augmented program of assemblies, athletics, and dramatics-Mr. Trippensee in a short time has made a real place for himself in the hearts of the faculty and the student body. 12 Hugh .Sh Whipple, E.

Garrett BOARD DF EDUCATION The character of a school is determined by its administration. lnevitably a superin- tendent and a board of education stamp a school with their ovvn imprint. Especially was this so in the 1850's in the pioneer days of the Medina Academy, the hoary and respectable ancestor of our alma mater. Whether it was intended or not, the imprint of the hrst principal was deep-in fact, as deep as it could be made by a strong pair of arms, which one of his pupils in after life compared to those of a blacksmith. Major Thales Lindsley, if tradition may be relied upon, was an especially vigorous man, famed as much for his discipline as for his pedagogy. He had come to Medina from a military school in Paducah and was afterward to be a major general in the Civil War. The first Board of Education, while not so picturesque and eccentric as the redoubt- able general, was composed of a group of Medina's most prominent citizens. Silas M. Burroughs, the chairman of this Board of Education, was one of the local capital- ists and a highly successful politician, being assistant floor leader of the House of Representatives during the Lincoln administration. john Ryan was one of the pio- neers in the quarry business as Well as the architect of some of Medina's most beauti- ful buildings, one of which is the present Baptist Church. The other members were Davis Starr, after vvhom the street was named, Christopher Whaley, Isaac Swan, and Archibald Servoss. Such were the first predecessors of the present school admin- istration. 13 GRETA M. AMES, B.S. History, Dramaticsg Adviser, Dramatic Clubg Home Room 304 CPost-Graclu- atcsl. ERMIE M. BOARDMAN, B.S.

Clyemiftgf and Public .Ypealzing Englixb Formed with the Junior College as a model, the Collegiate Center at Medina was organized to give an opportunity to those students who could not otherwise attend college. Students who matriculate here may work in the daytime and go to school evenings with very little cost. Regular college courses, accredited at most colleges, are offered under the auspices of Alfred University and the supervision of the State Department of Education. Besides having over sixty students enrolled, the Medina Collegiate Center claims eight teachers including the librarian and the supervisor. Classes begin at 4:40 P.M. and continue until 9 P.M. The subjects offered include English composition and liter- ature, Spanish, French, German, public speaking, chemistry, history, economics, business law, trigonometry, analytic geometry, psychology, logic, and calculus. The extra-curricular activities comprise the publication of a magazine, occasional assemblies, dances, and basketball games. 18 I CLASS OF 1936 OFFICERS JOHN LYNCH . . . President PHYLLIS FARRELL .

The passage of seventy years brings in its train many changesg but hardly any of these are greater contrasts than the differences between the first class to be graduated from the Old Medina Academy and the Class of 1936. To the mathematically minded, there may be some mystical significance in the fact that numerical comparisons between the classes seem to run to sixes and multiples of six, for the Class of 1936 is twelve times the size of the Class of 1866, whose nu- merical strength was one-half of twelve or six-all Of which is a long-winded way of saying that the number graduating has increased by leaps and bounds. In the Class of 1936 the balance between girls and boys is fairly even, in the Class of 1866 there was not a single male. Apparently equal rights for women were realized very early in Medina. Nevertheless, in the midst of all these changes, one perennial feature has been left unaltered. That is the graduation exercises. In a sweltering heat in Bent's Opera House, the only auditorium of the day, on June 29, 1866, the same type of program was given to which the Class Of 1936 also may listen On a swel- tering June day. Thus do trivial details live on after all else is changed.

Time: Twenty years hence-in 1956. John Lynch, president of the '36 class, is on the reception committee, greeting his old classmates. His secretary, Mildred Webber, has accompanied him from the news- paper office in New York City. While flying here, they met james Carrel, pilot of the airliner, who also was planning to attend the reunion. At one end of the auditorium Burton Kleinsmith is in deep conversation with sev- eral very attractive ladies, namely: Arlene Morgenberger, Ione Meland, Beatrice Oliver, and Louise Vail, who have collaborated in establishing a beauty parlor in Los Angeles. COne of their daily customers is Geraldine Davis, America's beloved actressj Leighton Voelker, who has just returned from abroad with his dance band, is furnishing the music. His instrumentalists include Phiz Watts, piccolo player, Johnny Lacy, trumpeter, Ed Adkins, drummer, Reggie Allen, pianist, Skunk Hall, bass player, Gerald Manley, odd tooters, and Mary Monagan, blues singer. Junior Wilson, vvorld's heavyweight wrestler, is taking last minute instructions from his little wife, the former Teresa White, while near them stands Dorothy Corlis, renowned author of Why Doesn't It Happen to Me? heatedly discussing crime and its QbeneD factors with Chief-of-Police Robert Botsford. Keith Armstrong, cartoonist, is drawing pictures for little Leo Houseman jr., while Leo Sr. is introducing his French wife to his friends. Behind them Sam Jackson, authority on locomotives, is relating his autobiography to an eminent psychiatrist, none other than Gordon Payne. Gordon's attention, however, is fixed on a unique personage. Entering the auditorium and clothed in sables and satins is Ernestine Pask, prima donna of the Metropolitan Opera Company. Her press agent, Edgar Rook, is accompanying her. Allen Winter has found it necessary to change his paper suit, as he has had the misfortune to step into a mud puddle on his farm before coming to the banquet. Mr. and Mrs. Yagge, nee Alberta Parker, have grown prosperous in their little grocery store selling Behee's Better Beans for Babies. They are now thanking Miss Behee for her contribution to their wealth. Audrey Boyce exchanges sales talk with Joan Male, manager of the local f1ve-and- ten. Audrey has since gained renown as a hat designer. A heated argument is in prog- 27 ress between Bob Hay, football coach of Notre Dame, and Wilson Shurgour, CBS announcer. Something Announcer Shurgour has said over the hook-up during the broadcast of a game was offensive to Coach Hay. Mlle. Leah Oakes has acquired a French accent and is using it to increase her in- come. She knows Ze exact hairdress for ze bee-u-tee-ful head of Madame. Leah is conversing with Doctor Robert Dennis Michael Murphy, brain surgeon. Leah and Bob have something in common-both deal with the head, exterior and interior respectively, thank you. A sober and fatigued man hobbles into the room on a cane. Leonard Gaylord has found it quite a task keeping books for the Secretary of the Treasury. His assistants, the Condon sisters, are accompanying him. Robert Maloney and Robert Schrader, two knights of the highways, have just left their luxurious conveyance Ca rumbling box carb and are arriving. However, they are thinking of settling down, now that Eleanor Rehorn and Ida Vincent have become such expert cooks, having received national prizes for the best chocolate layer cakes in the state. Doctor Mildred Shaddock, or Mimi, as she is better known, and the Reverend David Pearson are renewing their Schoolday courtship, while Chef John Duquette is busy in the cafeteria preparing the banquet. CDukie had to tear himself away from his hot dog stand in Philadelphia for the occasion.D The Misses Lowrie and Grapes, school teachers in Jersey City, still have no de- signs on anyone! Mr. Rolland Lindke, brilliant mathematician, is assisting physical training in- structor, Inez Perry, to the banquet table. The entertainment is to be furnished by Ken Lewis, stage and screen comedian of the Gallagher Follies. Mr. Gallagher is here in person with his fiancee, Miss Ellen Goheen, celebrity of the Follies. Harold Reak, good looking airplane designer, has most of the women in the clouds or is literally sweeping them off their feet. Among those absent from the Class of '36 are Ralph Perkins, Geraldine Brust, Earl Collins and Harriet Tillman, who had met with various accidents, all of which had proved fatal. The accounts of the deaths were published in the obituary columns of the Medina Daily Handbill edited by Mary Whitmore and Dot Higgins. All funerals were conducted by the city's ardent undertaker, Donald Butler. Now that all are assembled, debonair Jack Lynch attempts to quiet the gathering so that the banquet may get under way, but his greatest obstacle is Kenny Lewis, who is as insistent on a good time today as he was twenty years ago.

This association exists to stimulate cooperation among the vocational pupils in the high school. It aims to inspire high ideals of leadership and character. Among other activities this year, the organization held a banquet for fathers and sons which was attended by seventy-five persons, and injanuary the entire association membership attended the Rochester Exhibit of farm machinery, trucks, and other The Junior Glee Club The junior Glee Club consists of 38 members from whom were chosen the following ofiicers: Jeanne McKane, president, Samuel Orwig, vice-president, Robert Van Nor- strand, secretary, Virginia Cromwell, treasurer. This year the club has been working on duets, trios, solos, and unisons. In a student assembly in March the boys of the club rendered Yo! Ho! For the Rolling Sea by O'Hara. Miss Cooper, the club's instructor, is teaching these young students the proper pitch and volume for the voice and also the principles of music composition. The Stamp Club The members of the Stamp Club study stamps, learn the fundamentals of stamp collecting, and form many desirable character moulding habits. They are provided with an educational hobby and learn to observe, think, and concentrate. They have mounted many of their stamps this year and exhibited them. Members have dis- covered much concerning history, geography, artistry, and literature from their efforts to learn all about the various stamps which they collect. Mr. Needham, adviser of the club, has secured magazines, pamphlets-in fact, a varied assortment of literature-on the subject of stamps, a collection which will prove very useful to the Stamp Club's members. Une Act Plays of the Senior Dramatic Club The Senior Dramatic Club distinguished itself, as usual this year, by the presentation of two three-act plays, To the Ladies and Charley's Aunt, both directed by the club's adviser, Miss Greta Ames. In addition to these, however, a one-act play, Lotus Flowers, directed by Velma Verbridge, was presented in a student assembly. A few weeks later the second of its kind, Not Quite Such a Goose, directed by Geraldine Davis, was enacted. These one-act plays, staged and directed entirely by senior members of the club, give a larger number of members a chance to gain dramatic education. agricultural implements. The Junior Dramatic Club The Junior Dramatic Club of Medina High School exists to provide wholesome entertainment, stimulate appreciation of the stage, develop a sense of what is and what is not worthwhile in the theatre, and incite greater familiarity with literature. Through the study of some of the good plays, those which are intelligible, in- teresting, and strongly appealing to boys and girls of Junior High School age, it is possible to establish a greater incentive to further reading of the drama. Under the direction of Miss Frances DeLisle, the club's adviser, eight members presented in assembly a one-act play, entitled The Traitor, by Percival Wilde. 43 35 FOGTBALL HIGH SPOTS t' t TOP Row: Adkinf, Palmero, Prexton, Hagerman, Laqf, Coach Evanx, Wood, Butltr, Grant, Punrla SECOND Row: lorio, White, Monagan, Hay, T.

Failure to score the extra point following Monagan's block of a Lockport punt, cost Medina a tie with the conference leader. Medina-25, East Aurora-7! The Evans boys hit their stride and rode roughshod over East Aurora to register their highest score in four years. Medina46, Lancaster-O! A long pass from Hay to White, followed by a line buck by Pegelow enabled Medina to hand Lancaster its first defeat of the season. Medinav-O, LeRoy412! Medina's hope for a conference title burst as the team suffered a collapse and fell before a weak LeRoy eleven. Medina-O, Oakfield46! The followers of the Red and Blue team were dealt another stunning surprise as Oakfield handed Medina its second straight defeat. Medina-6, St. Mary's-6! Failing for the third straight week to secure a margin of victory, Medina, riddled with injuries, tied the Irishmen from St. Mary's. Medina-12, Albion-24!

Cox, Farrell, Bateman FRONT Row: Moone, Stielow, Prahler, Perg Because girls' varsity basketball was almost entirely discontinued this year, Mrs. Evans organized an intramural tournament to hold the interest of the girls. Joanna Moone and Barbara Cox, acting as captains, chose their teams from the group which played on Monday nights. Competition was so keen that Mrs. Evans was forced to change her plans and award varsity letters to all girls who had not received them in previous years. Although the first game was won by Jo's Ergos, Cox's Army staged a strong comeback to win the next three successive games. In spite of the loss of their captain, the Ergos took the two following games making the score 3 to 3. The finale came Monday, March 23, when the Ergos again trounced Cox's Army, thus winning the tournament. Girls' Basketball Schedule December 20 .... MEDINA 43 ALUMNAE 27 January 31 . .

Bob Hay was elected captain, and with a veteran out- field and battery Coach Evans expects to build up a baseball team that will give a favorable account of itself in the coming campaign. INTRAMURAL SPORTS Touch Football In 1935 touch football was introduced in the Medina High School. Under the super- vision of Mr. Arthur Gaiser, a league of four teams was formed for the purpose of training up-and-coming grid stars in the fundamentals of high school football. Over fifty boys took part in the new sport and received training in ball-carrying, passing, punting, and dodging, which will 'make them valuable additions to the varsity squad in the years to come. Basketball The high school gym was occupied every minute from November to March. Besides varsity basketball practice for both boys and girls, intramural leagues used the gym. A great deal of interest was displayed in the boys' intramural basketball. Major and minor leagues, each composed of four teams, were formed. Before the supremacy of each league was decided, the Grid Club and the Army, the final leaders, found a great deal of competition from the other six teams. The Grid Club was forced to beat St. Mary's in a play-off game, inasmuch as both teams were tied with seven wins and three losses at the end of the regular schedule. The final standings were as follows: Major League Minor League G. W. L. G. W, L. GRID CLUB . . 11 8 3 ARMY . . . 10 9 1 ST. MARY's . . 11 7 4 NOTRE DAME . . 10 5 5 NAVY. . . 10 3 7 SHELBY TECH . . 10 4 6 TIGERS . . 10 3 7 ARROWS . . . 10 2 8 Boxing and Wrestling Boxing and wrestling became two of the most popular indoor pastimes. Under the tutelage of Coach Fuzzy Evans, boys of all sizes were taught the art of self-defense. As a part of the noon hour recreation program special bouts were staged in the Little Theatre on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Softball Intramural softball, coached by Mr. Arthur Gaiser, gained in popularity in the High School building this spring. Last year's league of four teams was increased to a six team league with each boy's home room being represented. A twelve game sched- ule, beginning about the first of May, was arranged so as to end about June 10. Games were played on Tuesdays and Thursdays after school. 48 Goin' to town! 2.

Cburacterr' The crystal gazer, Prince Ali-Bendo A Medina octogenarian The Mayor, Mr. John Lynch A young society matron, Mrs. Leah Oakes Van Ruthe A promising novelist, Mr. Burton Kleinsmith His present wife, formerly Ernestine Pask Congressman George Butts Mrs. Butts A scientist, Mr. Harry Smithinsky Mr. John Lacy, Miss Louise Vail Various guests at the reception An orchestra Prologue: A scene in the studio of Prince Ali-Bendo, the renowned crystal gazer, who is describing to Medina's octogenarian a scene in the future. Prince: Ah, I perceive that Medina has developed into a most charming suburb of the great metropolis of Lockport. Many of its citizens are attending a reception at the home of the Mayor- CAS the mystic personage continues, the scene fades, and we find ourselves Cabout the year 1950, ADJ in the unique black and silver reception room in the ultra- modern steel and glass home of the suburb's pompous and intellectual mayor, Mr. John Lynch. Many of Medina's most prominent society leaders are present. The re- porter for this occasion is the very quiet and unobtrusive young man, well-known or his anomalous newspaper work, Mr. Gordon Payne. At one end of the room an orchestra, under the direction of Leighton Voelker, is playing one of the latest tunes. As we listen to the low hum of conversation we overhcar the astonishing remarks of an impetuous young society matron whom we recognize to our astonishment as Leah Oakes Van Ruthe. Leah: Have you heard that new news reporter over the telio? Bert listens to him every night and considers him the best of them all. But imagine this! Ifound out that it was Wilson Shurgour! I was so much surprised I almost forgot to read my new book. Burton: Well, speaking of former acquaintances, I have just read about a marvelous brain operation performed by a Dr. Shaddock. I wonder if she could be our old loqua- cious friend, Mildred? It hardly seems possible that she could keep quiet long enough to perform an operation. But wonders will never cease! Mfr. Butt: Cwbore hueround ir Medinefx contribution to Congre.r:D rurloing up to the group: Oh, Mr. Kleinsmith, I think your new book is just too, too divine. It thrills me to the very core. George likes it too. Don't you, George? George: Uh, what? Oh yes, yes of course. Allow me to congratulate you on your success, my dear sir. I suppose you will compose another operetta very soon? Mfr. Buttr: George! Mr. Kleinsmith is an author! QTurning to Burtonj I'm so sorry, but you know George is so wrapped up in his new Congressional speech on Representation but No Taxation that he forgets everything else so easily. Don't you, dear? Oh, there's Miss Vail. I simply must go and tell her how divinely she sang in the opera, La Traviata, last week. I think she's absolutely marvelous. Burton Cas Mrs. Butts leavesD: Well, I certainly think she's a character! I must put her in my next book. But I certainly wonder at George's judgment. Ernertine Cwho is Burton's present wifel: Now, Burton, be careful. I think we SO l Y v should go and say goodby to John before . . . why, look! Isn't thatjohn Lacy? I have heard that he has just accepted a position as curator of snakes in the new zoo. I must say that I certainly don't envy him his job. Harry Snzith: No, I can't say that I do either. It certainly must be much less pleasant than working with radium as I do, but I suppose each person thinks differently about such subjects. Barron Qvehementlybx I should say so. Well, my dear, I think we must go if we expect to arrive in New York in time to catch that air liner for Moscow. Well, good afternoon, everyone. Do come to see us when we have our new London home com- leted. P CAS they walk away the scene fades, and we find ourselves once more in the studio of the crystal gazer. Prince: . . . and so I have related to you a little bit of the dramatic future of our ineluctable Medina. Medina's Political Problems in 1970 Prologue-fSince 1935 Medina has grown to be a city as large as New York City. It has the largest airport in the world along with the greatest port on the Erie Canal. Women have taken the places of men. Claaracterx DOROTHY CORLIS . . .,.,, Mayorerr of Medina PHYLLIS FARRELL . . Chairman of the Bureau of Hnrbandfj' HARRIET TILLMAN . ...... Chief-of-Police MARY WHITMORE ....... Fire Chief EDGAR RooK ......... Xujfragirt and henpecked hurbana' Scenew-The Mayoress is rapping for order in her ofiice on the fiftieth floor of the Cook Building. Corlir-Miss Farrell, chairman of the Bureau of Husbandry, will take charge of the meeting. This lack of housekeeping knowledge on the part of our husbands is a scandal. On your shoulders rests the responsibility for the solution of this momentous roblem. p Farrell-Complaints are pouring in by the dishpanful. I only wish the weaker sex had our practical intellects, so that we could settle this right. What do you recommend, Chief Tillman? Tillman-Racketeering is on the wane, but sabotage in the kitchen persists. The thickness of spud peels is alarming these days. Ought I to crack down? Farrell-Have you a plan to meet this tremendous metropolitan emergency, Fire Chief Whitmore? Whitmore-No, but I have a memorandum on the state of the Union in this huge city. CShe reads.D Unless the destruction of the municipal preserves and food by our husbands ceases, it will be necessary to prohibit the laying of biscuits beyond the margin of the oven. Only yesterday we were called by a triple alarm to Put out some smoking biscuits. I formally present this suggestion. At this moment a disheveled figure bursts into the sessions of Medina's kitchen cabinet. It is Edgar Rook, one of the local embattled enthusiasts for equal rights for men. This potent one-time Romeo is leading a demonstration. Rook, shouting--We demand men's suffrage and a suitable allowance. I have not been able to shave for weeks since I could not afford razor blades. Duquette is even worse appearing. We demand . . . At this point the muscular arm of Chief Tillman ejects the unfortunate Rook by the nape of the neck, and calm descends again. 51 El? The Sultan of the Adirnzzdackx. 2, Chgw, 3. Tent matef.
