PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK, 1943 9 decided to experiment with her var- ious husbands, and after pouring three down the sink in test-tubes and exterminating two others with heavy electric shocks, she Wrote her famous best seller, 'How to Handle Husbands the Test-Tube Way'. We are still hot on her trail. Her colleague, Ma- rie Cressman - you remember her -after inviting her two friends, Jean Maus and Bertha Hamilton, out to tea fed them Arsenic sandwiches with Nitric Acid, then roasted them and fed them to her two Ubangi ser- vantsf' Well, really! exclaimed I, flabber- gasted almost beyond words Ca rare event in my lifeb. I thought Marie would take up singing for her ca- reer. Oh, she did, but that was just a means of getting into Society so that she and Betsy Jane could carry on their devastating work with less fear of suspicion. Well, that is something! Say, have you heard how Austin Sibbick is, lately? Oh sure, we have him lock-ed up now-just brought him in the other day. He is the most dangerous crim- inal the world has ever known. He admits having learned his tactics from discussions during Mr. Smith's History class. Say, do you remember Bill Ronald and Art Elson? Well, after the War, they joined a travel- ling theatre company and enacted a gangster ,skit which they presented very cleverly. One night they pre- sented it so realistically on the main street of a small town that the police took them in. They are still trying to prove their innocence. Marg, Veit and Bob Hough went into partnership and owned a Chemi- cal Factory. They raked in millions by blowing it up periodically and collecting the insurance on it. But the last time they tried this the fuse went off too soon and they were blown up with it. Dora Guthrie became a school teacher and, fearing that she would catch the disease so common among teachers-that of living forever -she went to see that eminent authority on diseases of the brain, Marjory McKeen. Marjory stated that she couldn't shorten' her life by degrees but that she could gladly take her out of her misery any time that she was tired of living. Well, that's interesting, isn't it? That just goes to prove more than ever the truth of the words, Time changes everything. Activity is the only road to knowledge. Bernard Shaw. Culture is to know the best that has been said and thought in the world. Matthew Arnold. i A teacher affects eternity, he can never tell where his influence stops. Henry Adams.
