To begin mildly, my advice to you:is never dress i n 't h e dark. I .shall always remember the time I appeared at a friendly gathering wearing one brown shoe and one black one, just because of dressing in the dark. I was highly embarrassed the time I mistook a general for a railroad conductor and asked him what time the next train would leave for Lafayette. Practically the most humili- ating thing that I have ever done was to try to make a good impres- sion upon a room full of people, but when I was making my exit, I chose the wrong door and found myself shut up in a closet. I had to walk awkwardly across the floor over to the right door. There will he some period in your life, in which you will be attending a rather dull or boring p a r t y and this next incident could occur to almost anybody who is not watching his Pfs and Q's. Well, please be sure of the per- son to whom ycu're speaking. I was an unfortunate attendant at such a party a n d just hap- pened to say, nwhat a beastly partyln to a man who was none other than the host. Was my face red! 3 I I would prefer to tell you of other people's embarrassing momemts, but I can never seem to remember theirsg I can tell you only of my own. I was even the center of attraction at a wedding reception once--just stole the whole show away from the bride. 1 was com- pletely flustratcd when I found myself locked in a second-floor bathroom in a big homeg I had to be rescued via a ladder, while thousands cheered. ' Such arc the incidents which you,yourself,might face.

TRD XLAR iffjwhaii- fee -e- Q W c c The 1941-1942 semester began on September 2, V amid hammering, bpiCk-1aying, and cement mixing. The new buildins had finally and J magically taken shape. The class found that the sim hour schedule had returned during the summer with a half-hour home room period added and rejoiced. School was dismissed thirty. minutes earlier than usual. Freshman Day rolled around, making the seniors feel j u s t a s important as they really weren't. CNever-the-less, they were a kingly group and to show the Freshmen that they held no grudges, gave them a dance.j Class rings were selected-'en October 8, HftOP several anxious weeks arrived. B this time the Q , ' public address system had been installed and school life had be- come fully Ureutinizedn. Near the end of October, the Home- coming Court was chosen and for the first time, the names of the girls were publicly announced. Thursday before Homecoming, the annual pep meeting was held' and the next day, November 14, the Homecoming queen and c o u r t reigned. After Homecoming there was nev- er a dull moment at M. C. H. S. America declared war on Japan during the first days of Decem- ber. After the first shock, life went on almost as,usual until the new high school building had been completed and dedicated on Decem- ber l9. December 19, the class went a- round in sort of a daze, every few minutes touching the walls to reassure themselves that the new building was a reality. Saturday night, December 20, they discov- ered that the gym was a-wonderful place in which to dance. Next in the parade of events came the Glee Club Pageant, mid- term'examinations, the bend een- Gcrt. and Rotary Club dinner given in honor of Gpverner sam Jones. While we wcren t looking, the clocks moved ahead an hour and the Whole schedule was re- vised. After Mardi Gras some of the seniors USpring presented the p l a y, Feveru, a fever which seemed to be eentageous. Each one was suddenly seized with a severe ease of what is known as Ugraduation gleesn. Suddenly they were caught in a frenzy and realized that a yearbook must be produced, class motto and colors selected, Junior Prom, picnic, and senior dance attended. New with commencement around t h e corner, a certain seriousness has settled over everyone. Plans for the future have been aired and discussed. Secret ambitions have come to light--and now the senior year is over and the class of '42 is all together for perhaps the last time.' T h i s print suddenly blurs, and you quickly blink your eyes several times, being careful not to let anyone know that maybe you, too, will miss this old place just a little bitt. r ' - ' ' , oo.
