YEAR BOOK OF 1939 - MSGR. PREVOST HIGH SCHOOL .,.. -' ........ ,.- while another read: 'Tm glad I can still walk . On inquiring. I discovered that the employees of the great Briand and Remy Shoe Store were on strike. It seemed that Messrs. Briand and Remy, insisted on making their employees wear the shoes they advertised. Proceeding on my way. I was suddenly stopped in my tracks by a piercing shriek of agony that disturbed the calm morning air. I looked around. found the cause of this annoyance. and laughed. It was only Dentist Forcier glee- fully working on income tax assessor Gagnier's teeth. I walked absent-mindedly from then on, and before I knew it. I had reached Lafayette Park. An immense crowd was there to witness the play- off of a baseball series. The Royal Bulldogs were playing the Notre-Dame Street Cats. On the former team, I recognized the great star Bert Laprise. contentedly picking his teeth with a baseball bat. while Lussier on the latter team was pitching to Vannie Marcoux who was shouting his signals in Latin. On the sideline. Lussier's family of 15. fincluding his mother-in-lawj, was cheering him on to victory. On the bench. I perceived Mr. Francoeur. the Bulldogs' manager, worried- Iy tearing out his hair. From what I found out later. he was trying to figure out a way to chisel undershirts for his team. At the other end ofthe park. I saw Boutin on a soap-box. shouting vociferously at a mob of kindergarten pupils. He was practicing his speech for the next assembly of the State Legislature. I turned around, and there. on a little rise. stood a stately five-storied, red-bricked school:-Mgr. Prevost High School:-my Alma Mater! . I walked in through the arched doorway. and had proceeded but a few steps when. from a class room in front of me. a babel of sound suddenly arose. The door was flung open, and Euclide St. Amand, now a teacher, rushed out fol- lowed by an avalanche of books and school paraphernalia. He had been talking to the Freshmen about the importance for the government of dividing property equally among the citizens, I continued my tour of inspection. and entered the new large auditorium where Lapre, the great orator. was speaking to a group of open-mouthed students on How to express yourself clearly in 10 easy lessons! My little stroll was over. and I happily headed back for my private laboratory where I was just finishing an invention. I had just discovered a laughing gas that would eliminate the tears shed at sad moving pictures. This discovery was going to net me millions.-I hoped!!! Philippe Deschenes, '39. 0 Page 24 1. o .
