She had been planning to teach Home Economics in a High School, but ended up by applying the principles of Home Economics in her own home. After graduation Sally jackson became a telephone operator, but her interests were elsewhere, and at this date we hear she has made a very successful housewife for a former Airman. They now have a half interest in a silver mine in Wyoming. lncidently he discovered this when he was stationed there in 354. Ruth Costello took a trip to Maine after graduation and became very interested in the turkey business. Now, some three years later, she is taking in an old classmate, Dot King, as her partner in the thriving new business-turkey farming!

He has expanded the business to such an extent that the BGB Store now occupies a large part of the east side of River Street.

Lois Holcombe went on to study music at Metropolitan Music Hall and is now a famous pianist at Carnegie Ilall. However. she has not forgotten Milton and may soon take up residence here once more. Bernard Lareau graduated from M. H. S. and completed college in the amazingly short time of three years. He came back to M. H. S. and taught English and Acrobatics for eight years. Now some years later we find him in Milton on a farm where he is raising Florida dates. Eight years after graduation we find Rohert Brisson has married his high school sweetheart, and has settled down in California where he is owner of one of the largest sports ear and hot rod shops in the nation. For relaxation he often drives one of his models in the stock car races. WVe find that seine years later that Albert Parker is settled down in a mid-western city where he is making good money as a foreman in a steel mill. He is now centering his efforts upon improving the processing of steel. Richard Miner was married a year after leaving school. His father-in-law set him up in the cabin business in which he was a great success. They now have five little miners,'. After janet Fienemann left Milton she went to Boston where she entered business college, From here she graduated with top honors. She is now secretary in a very large jewel Hrm, the Eastern Gem Co., which has its headquarters in Mecca, Arabia. After Lee Patno left high school he entered electrical school from which he graduated with honors. He is now master engineer of the St. Lawrence Seaway project in Messina, N. Y. Of course Peter Caclreact had his life pretty well planned. He bought a very large farm in Alaska and was a great success. He now has five men working for him. Last year he returned to Milton to marry a certain class mate. After Thelma Blow graduated from high school she went into nurseis training in a New York Hospital. We are sure that she would have become a successful nurse but she became more interested in one of the doctors, than in nursing.

Days later, at Grand Central Station, as she was ready to leave for home she began to sing to herself. Someone heard her and she is now a popular radio-TV. singing star.

Four years later we learn that she has been lured away from her hum-drum existence as a secretary and is once more delighting capacity audiences with her juvenile portrayals on stage and screen. WVhen Agnes Dunakin left high school, she went down to Brattleboro to take up nurseis training. We are sorry to say that she didnlt finish the course because she decided that a certain junior boy was more important to her than nurseis training. Dorothy King while going through her first three years at high school, was seriously thinking of becoming a secretary. During her senior year she decided to take up farming, and not on her fatheris farm either.
