Wasn't Hester a great vamp, and can't you just picture that last scene and hear Canada with her I'll shoot to kill ? I remember hearing one member of the Faculty say that it was the best thing ever given at the College, and, though we were modest about it, we thought it was pretty good ourselves. Surely it can't be twenty years ago! e As I write all the little things keep coming back to me-wouldn't it be great if we could talk it all over? Do you suppose you could call a class meeting in Room IV at five o'clock, June 8, 1943? Of course, the new buildings are wonderful-how we used to dream and talk about them- but l'm sure we all wish we could go back to the stable on Michigan Boulevard to discuss all the things that have happened since we left there. Our three years were short, but many of the girls have said that they meant more to them than any other years of their lives, for they gave us the training and the ideals to start out with. Do see if we can't have the class together next year-you always did manage things for us. ln the meantime I am sending greetings by radio to nearly every state in the Union to some Senior of the class of l922. Love and greetings from Alabama. Mal'-x' Mood-v. llllllIllllllIIlIIlllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllll PROVINCIAL NORMAL SCHOOL Calgary, Alta. Dear Miss Craig: I am returning herewith what, from a comparison of handwriting, seems to have come from you, in order that, if you had anything on your mind, you might transfer it to this paper: or were you sending me samples of note paper, or, again, have you used invisible ink? If you are not the party concerned, please pardon the imputation. Yours very truly, E. II . Coffin, Pl'l-1I4'IfLlI. . Editor's Note fRe Application for Positionj.-On applying for a posi- tion it has been found advisable to enclose the letter of application rather than the blank note paper which you have left over, although under certain condi- tions this method has been used very successfully. IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Mr. Arnold- My idea of heaven is a place with a blackboard big enough to put my whole series of outlines on at once. Gladys W.- And my idea of the other place is having to copy the blinking things. ' 2 I

Senior Class History june 8, I942. EAR LARRY : - As l sat here on my verandah this morning sipping my breakfast coffee Nels brought me a News Bulletin from N. K. E.. C. While reading it I came to the sudden realization that it is twenty years ago today that we, the Senior Class of l922, in our caps and gowns, were handed our sheepskins and told that we were considered ready to face the World. Do you remember how green and funny we all were when we entered as Freshmen? You must have had many a good laugh over us, but under your guiding hand we learned the ways and byways of college life, and we must have made good as Freshmen because you were willing to accept us again for better, for worse when We returned as Juniors. How we made things hum that Junior year when we, sixty-odd strong, came to the front and won our rightful place in the College routine. Will you ever forget our week-end at the Dunes. l never ached so much or had such a good time in all my life. The rest of the year is rather a blur-it went so fast-but our luncheon to our directors stands out very plainly. What fun we had planning that so as to make our scanty treasury go as far as possible. Your May party at Riverside is another bright spot in the year-how did you always manage the weather-man so well? Best of all was our Senior year. How lost we twenty dignified Seniors felt with that terrible crowd of juniors and Freshmen whirling and pushing and crowding around us. We certainly missed the rest of our old class, but that made us appreciate fully the ones who did return and the new girls who joined our class. The first matter of importance that came up before our class that year was our party to the Freshmen, and that was a real problem, because the Freshman class numbered II6 and we were only twenty-and only Seniors at that. We were short on time and on funds, and though we had lots of ideas most of them were impractical. Finally we put our heads together and began to make plans for a Beach Party at Jackson Park. We were beaten in numbers, but not in pep, and, even if we do say it ourselves, that was usome party, wasn't it? And then that l-lalloweien party to the Juniors-l don't believe you dare say cat to some of them yet. After that, time just flew, and before we knew it everybody went home for Christmas. How happy everyone was to go-and how happy they were to come back! Of course, we all of us loved our kindergartens, but they nearly drove us to distraction before the end of the year. Perhaps the hardest blow of all, however, was the news that we were expected to put on an Assembly program in three weeks. My, how we worked! The Potboiler!! 20
