THE MIRROR OF 19 3 3 We were fortunate in that we could hear Dale Gaflin, the speaker of the House of Representatives, giving a speech to the members of the House. Later in the day we read an account of Dale’s speech in Alice Lofte’s newspaper. While inspecting the offices we were told that Idella Wendt was in charge of the large library on the next corner. Our first stop on Earth was at Hollywood where we saw the sets for Lillian Ehlert’s latest picture which was being directed by Kermit Cooke. I went with Lillian to Madame Nita’s shoppe where the actresses’ clothes were designed. To my amazement Madame Nita was none other than Juanita Claflin; here assistant was Velma Ede. Our stay at Hollywood was very brief, for we had to see our classmates in New York City before our vacation was over. In New York City I entered Daphne’s Style Shop” to see a fashion show in which Norma Marum was a mannequin. Norma took me to a theatre where we saw Rachel Smith in her latest feature dance. Rachel had risen from the position of chorus girl to that of a featured dancer. The next day we saw Ellen Wyman, author of several satires on society, who lives in a penthouse with her imported Persian cats. Although it was predicted by our high school teachers that we would come to nothing but the dogs,” this visit has proved that even teachers sometimes may err. —Rachel Smith ONE WORD MORE Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time. Footprints that perhaps another, Sailing o’er life’s solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother, Seeing, shall take heart again.” —Longfellow As we seniors are about to depart from our schoolmates, the lower classmen, we begin to realize too late that we might have served better as guiding influences in their budding lives. Hence we offer herewith a bit of advice gleaned from our wide and varied experience, hoping that our friends will accept it is the spirit in which it is given and that they may profit from following it. The first step to take in order to get A’s” is never to pay any attention to the class assignments. You can have a very enjoyable time looking out through the window while the others are wasting perfectly good theme paper copying down the assignment. You can get a fuller benefit from your paper by writing notes on it. Be sure never to study the assigned lesson unless you are positive that you will be called upon for that particular type of work. Even then you can save a great deal of precious time by copying the work of your classmates who are foolish enough to exert themselves in preparing assignments. During your study periods be sure to spend your time gazing lovingly as the opposite sex or writing notes. You’ll find that several trips to the library or to the key-holes of other classrooms will also be very beneficial to your marks. Whenever you have an examination, be sure to sit by someone who is smart” and persuade him to allow you to copy from his paper. The nearer you sit to the desired person the less you’ll have to strain your neck and eyes; you’ll find that practice makes perfect” and the more numerous the attempts the lesser the after-effects. —The Senior Class of ’33 Page Twenty-Three
