While in the show, Gerald told me that Elnora Dickey married a wealthy man, who was the janitor of an Orphanage, and she was helping him with the work there. Coming out of the theatre into the street, I bought a news¬ paper, and in large letters were these words: “Perpetual Motion Discovered.” Reading on further, I found that the inventor of this great machine was Paul Nelson, our former student in the Physics class. Upon reaching the Station, Mox found his party waiting and took his departure, thus ending the conversation, and I realized that such brilliant careers would never be attained by any other class than that of ’16. Fred E. Melby. Economy. Mr. Wheeler—“Wife, I wish you’d buy me a pair of 5c collar buttons.” Mrs. Wheeler—“Alright, as soon as someone has a sale.” PAGE SEVENTEEN Senior Class Poem. What dearer memories, old friend, May come to you and I, As we grow old, and our journey’s end Reflects in the western sky. Than the beautiful thots of our Senior year, When we faced the world of strife, With a parting sigh for the friends held dear, And a happy view of life? We were the Seniors, the graduates! The winners, the privileged few— With secret meetings and many ‘dates,’ And ‘mountains’ of work to do! It’s all gone by, old friend of mine; But memory will never pass, And gladly we’ll answer the challenge divine— “Why, we’re the Senior Class!” R. R. Smith Listen my children, I’ll tell you all, The wonderful tale of motorcycle Paul, He mounted the wheel with a cheerful mien, The doctor got Paul—Billy Rags the machine.
