WW- Wf m, , . .i-'31 , .I . . I . . , THE GOLDEN ARROW 23 MEMORIES OF HIGH SCHOOL DAYS It was a cold December evening and the night before Christmas as I sat in front of a blazing fire in the library of a large New York Hotel. Now and then as I glanced out of one of the large windows I could see the softly falling snow that promised to cover the ground by morning. Eager Christmas shoppers hur- ried to and fro and the rumble of vehicles and the clang of the street car could be heard on the busy streets. How happy and cheerful it all seemed, but here I was all alone on Christmas eve. December twenty-fourth, ninteen hundred and thirty in this great city. As I sat in deep reverie, the busy streets grew quiet as weary people journeyed homeward. The hotel corridors became silent and the hands of the clock crept nearer and nearer the hour of midnight. Suddenly the huge log in the fire-place fell apart, and hundreds and hundreds of little sparks merrily danced up the chimney. Each one seemed to recall the days that were past and gone, when suddenly I could see the dim outline of the desks of the assembly room of Milton High. Yes, they are all there in their seats, Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. The roll is taken by Mr. Uren, and the first classes for the morning are called. Miss Borden takes her place at the main room desk and the hour passes uneventfully except for a piercing glance at some noisy restless scholar. The periods pass quickly, one after the other. The fifteen minute period ar- rives which is very trying to certain pupils. as they must give recitations, read- ings, stories or solos before the school. Then comes .English II. Have all the Sophomores Hnished their themes? By the woebegone expressions on some of the faces, we judge they possibly will receive a nice round zero. Finally noon arrives. XVith warning from Mr. Uren to straighten up absent and tardy excuses. and to go down the right side of the stairs, school is dismissed for the noon hour. The day slowly passes and is followed by many others. Oh! those happy High School days, and that jolly class of nineteen hundred and twenty. Where are they all. Myrl Davis and Rolland Sayre are noted senators. Anna McBride and Anna Hanauska are teachers in the VVisconsin University. Katherine Maxson? Oh yes, she is a noted pianist. Constance Bennett and Beulah Lanphere are with the Redpath Lyceum. Ellwood Shumway is manager of the world's champion base
