4 PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK Grahuates EVELYN IONE BEE The world is but a stage Where every man must play a part. Cn a memorable day in December, 1918-the thirtieth to be exact- there came into the world a blue-eyed baby girl, soon to be known as Evelyn lone Bee, and later as Buzz. Soon this little girl learned how to creep, and before long she was trudging off to the Stone School near Paris. For a year Evelyn left her friends at the Stone School and went to Heglance Creek, just outside of Toronto, where she attended school for a year. Then she returned, and after successfully passing her Entrance in 1932 she entered the portals of P. H. S. where she acquired many friends as well as knowledge. She graduates this year with the best wishes of the '38 graduating class. She is now attending Day's Business College in Brantford. Good Luck pal! G.M.S.

PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 5 MARY ELIZABETH CAMERON Great was the excitement and great was the cause for excitement at the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. V. Cameron of West Lorne, Ontario, on June 19, 1920, when the birth of twins was announced, Mary Elizabeth and Wil- liam Bruce known far and wide as Betty and Billy. After six years of en- tertaining each other the twins entered school in Winnipeg, Manitoba, to amuse the teachers there for a few years before moving to Brantford, On- tario, where they passed their Entrance. Betty entered High School in Paris in 1934, and in her four years here her sunny disposition and blonde hair won her many friends both feminine and masculine. She was an all-round student and sport, having served on the Girl's Athletic Executive and on the staff of the Quill, and having played forward on the Girl's Basketball and Hockey Teams. Having completed her Junior Matriculation here, Betty is now attend- ing Ontario Ladies' College at Whitby. To say that you will be missed, Betty, is to put it mildlyg but we wish you every success and happiness in whatever you may undertake in the future. F.L.S. EVELYN MURIEL CASSADY Here is a spirit deep, and crystal clear, Calmly beneath her earnest face it lies, Free without boldness, meek without a fear, Quicker to look than speak her sympathies. . -Evelyn Muriel eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Cassady, first awakened to the light of day on May 20, 1920, in uthe prettiest town in Canada -Paris. Seven years later this charming little blue-eyed blonde started up the Upath of knowledge to South Ward School. Her eager quest for know- ledge speedily swept her along to Queen's Ward School in 1929 and to Central School in 1932, through the Entrance with honours in 1933, and brought her to the threshold of P. H. S. September, 1933, found her conquering new fields of learning in P. H. S. During her sojourn there, her quiet manner and ready wit won her a host of friends. Casey, as she was often called, took a keen interest in school life. She served as form reporter of the Quill for the spring term of 1937, and was a member of the Editorial Committee of the Year Book in 1937. In 1934, while Evelyn was in Second Form, she was the winner of the Legion Essay Contest. This November she is graduating with full Junior Matriculation and Honour Matriculation in five subjects. She will also receive the I.O.D.E. King George V. scholarship in Modern History and the Dr. Bell Memorial Scholarship in Latin. Now she leaves the halls of P. H. S. to continue her studies as an Hon- our student in First Year Arts Course at Western University. We wish her every success! R,P,W,
