CLASS SONGS The Long, Long Trail AYS we've spent With you, dear Oakhurst, All have reached the end. Though the wide world we travel, Youtll still be our friend. 01d remembrances are thronging In memory and heart. Though we all are going far away, In spirit we'll never part. Choruse We've a long, long trail a-Winding Into the great big Beyond. Old Oakhurst, we are leaving you To tread on unknown ground. There will be our tears at parting; For all our school days are through. Wetre going down that long, long trail That leads us far from you. The Rose of No Man's Land AREWELL O. C. S., we are leaving you, To blaze an unknown path. We will sail the sea of things to be, And reach the goal at last. Dear old 0. C. S. to you we owe our best, Our thanks and our praise are true, Let us give three cheers for your guiding years And well bid farewell to you. 23 Rainbows T THE end of our school days With happiness, Comes the sorrow of parting from you. We will close the school door, to enter no more; 'But our hearts will ever be true. Teachers, forgive our failures, We've striven to do our best. To you we owe our gratitude. Farewell to you and all the rest. Choms- We all are leaving Oakhurst. Oakhurst, you are our pride. Now we will try our little wings, Laying books aside. Sometimes we look and fmd the sunshine, But now we only find the rain. Oakhurst, we do not want to leave you, The years we've spent with you have been a gain. Wetre sorry That we must go from Oakhurst, But Well think of you always the same. J OANNE BOYLE.

off to see my customers, spending the night on one of the new airplane sleepers and arrived at the operatic center of the country, Earlsviile, Where the first per- son on whom I called was Gillian Brammer. I found her drilling a chorus of that exquisite new opera, The Boys Beautiful. She has had much experience in this work and her boy pony choruses surpass any- thing heretofore seen. I next called on Ruth Selser, residing at Middle- burg, and while all of my classmates that I have seen so far were carving out careers for themselves, she seemed to be the one exception, having a very pretty home of which she takes complete charge, seeing to all of the housework and personally taking care of her three children. She is devoted to her husband and has a great many warm personal friends among the gentlemen in the neighborhood in which she lives. She cares nothing for out-of-door sports, and can not be induced to drive an automobile or an airplane. While at Ruth's house, she asked me if I would not like to see Alice West, and upon my saying that I 22 should be delighted, we started out to find her. Being one of the most popular ladies of the town, this was rather hard to do, but at last we located her at the ttLadies' Athletic Club, of which she is the presi- dent and the largest member, weighing two hundred and fifty pounds. I had now completed my eastern trip and started for home, but before I arrived I had made up my mind to stop at Middletown, Ohio, which, as is well known, is the center of fashion of the world, and here, over the door of the emporium, was the name of Ruby Roegge, Who has become justly famous for her skill in designing ladies costumes. She, personally, showed me her newest models which were wonders of beauty. After spending an entire day with her, seeing her most exquisite and elaborate creations, I returned to the small village of Cincinnati where I found that my potted peanut factory had been burned to the ground, having been set on fire by a villainous man, jealous of the great business successes of the female sex.
