Well do we remember the glorious day when we marched up to the portals of R. H. S. with our grade diplomas in our hands, and a timid look in our eyes. We soon overcame our fears, however, and began to take our share, and of the many honors won in High School our girls basket ball team carried off many prizes in our Freshman year. As Freshmen we were handled with care by the hands of our fellow students. Why, we cannot tell, but suppose it was because we all gave such great promises of better things to come. In our Sophomore year, many of our school mates left us; some because they were learning too much and brain fag threatened them, and others just longed to start a bank account. Our Junior year began with a few more vacancies, because some of the girls feared leap year was too far off and they thought of the old proverb of Franklin, “Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.” and thus seven members of our class are now keeping house in various parts of the world. They are Elizabeth Robinson, Charlotte Stevens, Ada Kuykendall, Emily Wester, Myrtle Barker, Franklin Gates and Glodia King. Our Junior year will always be one kept in mind. It was during this eventful year that the High School strike occurred. We are now Seniors! Small in number, but great in the eyes of our fellow students. We have continued our successful work thus far in the last and greatest year of our High School career. We have added to our number two charming damsels, namely Helen Arthaud and Juanita Howard; one of whom has captured a number of the Junior hearts. We are now twelve in number, named and characterized as follows: Eva Anderson, our best shimmie dancer. Helen Arthaud, our sunshine. Ruby Carlson, the vamp. Hope Edwards, our song bird. Kathleen Faye, our peacemaker. Juanita Howard, our main attraction. Marion Johnson, the chief adviser. Macey Lackey, our class coquette. Frances Olson, our dream of dreams. Frances Phelan, our walking dictionary. Andv Peterson, our lonesome, bashful (?) boy. Emily Mueller, our life saver. Having acquainted you all with the class of ’20, we, the Seniors, wish to thank our teachers for the great interest they have shown toward us during our four happy years in Rawlins High. „ MACEY LACKEY, 1920. 1920 in 1925 With all of her maids at my service, a cool drink placed conveniently on a nearby table, I made myself most comfortable in the cool, shady library in the home of my friend, Mrs. Sunderland, with whom I was planning an extended motor trip. As I sat there my mind busied itself with the events leading up to my good fortune. Mrs. Sunderland, as all of you must have heard, was an old friend and classmate of mine, whom all of you will recall much better as Frances Phelan. For nearly a year I had been private secretary to Mr. Sunderland, a wealthy broker of Chicago, and had, just two days before, learned that his wife was an old friend of mine. She had long wished for this trip, she said for her health (all very wealthy people I find do things for health’s sake), but as she planned, I more than half suspected that her purpose was to find out, if possible, the present location and occupations of the different members of the R. H. S. class of 1920. Not even a chauffeur accompanied us on our tour of the United States. Frances and I took turns at the wheel. We left Chicago on June 25, 1925, for our memorable trip, and drove directly to New York City. Finding our supply of skin cream and other beautifiers nearly exhausted, we sought a beauty parlor. The powder suggested by the dainty, dark-haired young woman was named “Juanita’s Face Powder.” “How funny,” laughed Frances. “How that reminds me of Nita!” “Why,” said the young woman, “I believe this is Frances Phelan and Emily Mueller, isn’t it?” This was a surprise, for here was Frances Olsen, owner of a well known New York “Beauty Parlor.” She suggested that, as a means of entertaining us, she should be allowed to take us to the place where the powder was made, for, as she expressed it, she was “sure we would be interested.” No wonder “Juanita” sounded familiar! “Juanita Face Powder” was being manufactured by Juanita Howard, and I am sure you will agree that she really should be a judge of fine face powder and soft powder puffs. After a delightful two days’ visit, we made a promise to return soon, and left for the south. After several days driving, interwoven with days of rest, we arrived at Palm Beach, where we had planned to spend several days for Frances’ health. What days of comfort, and luxuries which only a purse like that oi Robert Sunderland could provide. Beautiful rooms in expensive hotels —only the best would do for Frances—idle hours in which our greatest problem was that of personal ease and comfort. As I lounged on the wonderful, largo veranda of our hotel one drowsy afternoon, I saw someone pass, who caused me to jump excitedly from my comfortable chair, take Frances by the hand, and run madly after the fast disappearing form of one, whom 1 was convinced was none other than Eva Anderson. As we hurried along, 1 explained my “suspicions” to Frances, and was amazed at the wonderful ability she displayed as a sprinter. Eva was as surprised as we were over our meeting. Her rich uncle she told us had left her vast wealth, and she spent all of her time traveling around the world and enjoying life to the fullest extent. As she talked, and I watched her languid gaze traveling along the beach, I might have expressed my thoughts thus: “Some people have rich relatives thrust upon them!” From this place, after buying two new tires, we drove on, and after some time, came to St. Louis. One day as I scanned a newspaper, a picture seemed to fairly jump at me, and if the name beneath had been in letters four inches high, I am sure it could not have stood out more clearly. Eagerly rousing Frances from her beauty nap, I read to her: “Pretty young settlement worker, Miss Macey Lackey, leaves for her girlhood home in Rawlins, Wyoming.” Following this, a detailed account was given of this young woman’s activities as a settlement worker. The rest of the afternoon we spent in trying to imagine this old classmate in the charitable position she now held. When at last our driving brought us to San Antonio, Texas, where, as you may have heard, if you are interested in the matter, had been established a Gregg school for shorthand, we decided that since we were old friends of that system we would call upon the principal of the school, and see how many people were learning the subject and gather what other information we might. When we were at last ushered into the presence of the principal, we tried to think of some excuse besides our curiosity, and our old association with shorthand, for our call. No doubt the principal thought we were coming to join her classes. When she turned toward us—surprised? Oh, no! and you will be just as surprised as we were to learn that Helen Arthaud was still following shorthand as a means of earning her daily bread. From this place we went to San Francisco. Long had we admired a certain big liner from a distance and when a friend of Frances offered to introduce us !o the captain we gladly accepted. The captain was from Wyoming, and though you guessed for an age, you would never name him. If I introduce him to you as he was introduced to us, you will no doubt be as delighted as we were to meet Captain Andrew Peterson, U. S. N. On one of our trips by rail, through California, a young woman came up to us and said: “I wonder if you would be interested in Underwood typewriters?” We looked up with a sharp reply on our lips, but when we saw her smiling face and her eyes twinkling with mischief, our reply was mingled with gladness and relief, for here was Marion Johnson, traveling saleswoman for the Uuderwood typewriter company. As too much detail would only bore you, I will be satisfied by merely telling you that at last our motoring brought us to our old “home town” of Rawlins. It had grown quite a bit since our residence there, but we found many old friends still. We heard that Ruby Carlson was owner of the old Rawlins opera house, and had remodeled it quite a bit. We called on her one afternoon, and she laughingly told us iust “how it happened.” “Surely you remember,” she began, “the story Mr. Robuck told us about the two boys who began driving the delivery wagon, and how finally the one became owner of the business, and the other remained as his delivery boy? Well, his advice to ‘keep at a thing till we are successful’ led me to try to be owner of the opera house, and I really was very successful.” As Frances’ thoughts of a certain Chicago bungalow and someone who lived there, were always luring her on, we left, after a few days’ visit, for Denver. When we arrived in Cheyenne, we were driving about one day, and passed a modiste shop. The windows were so attractive that we decided to investigate. On entering, our eyes met with the most beautiful hats and gowns that we had ever seen, in fact the lure of one hat of georgette crepe was so irresistible that I finally added it to my wardrobe. It was a mass of fluffy white ruffles, with tiny pink rosebuds nestling here and there in its soft folds. A superb white chiffon afternoon gown next attracted my attention, and Frances added it to her already beautiful wardrobe. The beautiful young woman who had attended to our needs had retired to another room to get change for us, when a voice from behind us said: “I thought so; I thought I knew your voices.” After a moment of silence, caused by our susprise, we nearly knocked each other over in our hurry to embrace the owner of the modiste shop. “Hope,” I exclaimed, when surprise had at last released my tongue, and allowed us to speak, “How, when, why—tell us all about it?” So she told us in detail of her ambition to be a milliner, and how easily she had worked her way up to owning the most fashionable shop in the state. As Hope begged us to remain for a time, a week passed most delightfully before we again took up the trail. When we were within a few miles of Denver, bang! a tire blew out with all the noise that accompanies such occasions. Together we started to change the tire and were getting along famously, laughing and joking, when the jack suddenly fell and caught one of my fingers under the wheel. Frances finished changing the tire and we drove to St. Joseph’s hospital to have my finger dressed. The head nurse was the only one who could do anything for me, because all the doctors were busy. My hand was entirely forgotten when the pretty brown-haired nurse entered the room. Here again fate had a surprise in store for us, and also, I might state for Kathleen Fay, for she was head nurse at the hospital. As my hand had only been bruised a little, we filled up our gas tank, bought a new tire and soon left Denver far in the distance. How full of interest the rest of the trip was! What beautiful country we passed through. One break-down added spice to the trip, for nothing is quite so lovely as to walk to a nearby town for help. All the way to Chicago we laughed and talked over the four happy, care-free years in Rawlins High. At last we drew up before the bungalow. When Frances brought the car to a stop she said: “Now before we leave this car, let us draw up some resolutions. We set about our task with serious faces and soon drew up the following: “We here highly resolve that the class of 1920 of the High School of Rawlins, Wyoming, was the best that ever was, is or will be, and that the Rawlins H. S. and the Rawlins schools as a whole, are the finest possible.” And we solemnly signed our names. Doesn’t this make it a fact? EMILY V. MUELLER, ’20. Last Will and Testament of Class of 1920 We, the class of 1920, feeling that the end of our career in R. H. S. is approaching, do hereby give and transmit the possession of the class of 1920 to the various members of the other classes in the aforesaid R. H. S. We do give and bequeath the following: Juanita Howard leaves her powder puff to Mollie Morrison, feeling that Mollie well knows the use of one. Her position in the orchestra she gives and bequeathes to Charlotte Draper. Frances Phelan bequeathes and transmits her ability to play “Forward” to Chrystie Anderson; her lack of verbosity and her zeal for study, to the Freshmen, feeling that they stand greatly in need of the same. Hope Edwards, by these same presents, gives her premises to Marjorie Baker, believing full well that Marjorie can use it to advantage; her rosy cheeks she bequeaths to Alice Peterson. Eva Anderson gives her love for and grace in Jazz to Dale Magor; her standing room in Mr. Anderson’s office to her brother Harry. Andrew Peterson leaves his love and devotion to the fair sex, to Virgil Patrick. Frances Olsen wills her dainty appearance to Norma Meason. Marion Johnson gives and bestows her speed in typewriting upon Elmer Nelson; her position as editor-in-chief to some capable member of the class of ’21. Helen Arthaud leaves her smile and charming manner to Feme Mclnturff, to make as good use of it as she herself has done. Macey Lackey leaves her heart and soul with the class of ’22; her comedian ability to Billy Clifford. Kathleen gives her silence to Elizabeth Anderson; and her shorthand lessons to any one who wants them. Ruby Carlson leaves her position as H. S. vamp to Mabel Rexford, feeling that Mabel will undoubtedly advance in the same art before her Senior year arrives. • Emily Mueller gives her ability to write stories to Edith Smith. Her love for chemistry to Ruel Armstrong, so that he may star in this subiect to the great delight of Mr. Robuck. Whereupon we have this day set our seal and taken in manifestation of our sincere desire to leave our best possessions to R. H. S. in order that all may benefit by the same. Given under our hand, this twelfth day of April, in the year of our Lord, 1920. .JOHN LARSEN “Slow and steady wins the rac?.” NELLIE COHAGAN “Her very frowns are fairer far. than smiles of other m lidens are.” STANLEY SUNDELL CHRISTIE ANDERSON “I am here and here I shall remain.” “Witty, lively and full of fun, a good friend, and a true one ” LOTTIE COULSON ' My tcrgue within my lips I rein, for who talks much must talk i,i vain.” ARNOLD LARSON “Struck blind with beauty, shot with a woman’s smile.” GEORGE EDWARDS “I don’t know where I’m going, but I’m on my way.” DALE MAGOR “A most studious lad—sometimes.” JIMMIE O'DONNEL A holy terror.” EARL WILKES “Will do anything for a good time.” REUEL ARMSTRONG “He who holds no law in awe.” WILBUR WALCK “I am the unhappy (?) subject of many quarrels.” ELMER NEILSON A natural born tease.” DOROTHY ZINGSHEIM “That laugh of yours will get you into trouble yet.” She has the heart and the hand to execute.” “Come not under the measure of my wrath.” NORMA MASON DORTHY YERXA ‘Whispering, whispering, forever Where smiling spring its earliest whispering.” visit paid.” Rawlins at the Tournament The outlook wasn’t brilliant for the Rawlins five that day; The score stood nine to two with five minutes left to play. But then when Harold missed a goal and Tippy did the same, A sickly silence fell upon the rooters of the game, A straggling few got up to go in deep despair, the rest Clung to the hope that springs eternal in the human breast; They thought if only Johnny could get a chance once more We’d put up even money now with Johnny on the floor. But Ted preceded Johnny, and so did Fritzy lad, The former was a hoodoo and the latter just as bad. But Tip put in a basket, to the wonderment of all, And Close, he took a foul shot, and through the basket went the ball. But when the noise had ceased and the people saw the score There was Johnny, mighty Johnny, advancing on the floor. Then from 500 throats and more there was a lusty cheer. It echoed at a distance, it rang both far and near It knocked upon the windows, it rattled near the door. For Johnny, mighty Johnny, was advancing on the floor There was ease in Johnny’s manner as he stepped into his place, There was pride in Johnny’s bearing and a smile on Johnny’s face, And when responding to the cheer he waved his head quite low; They knew ’twas Johnny, mighty John, the one they usta know. One thousand eyes were on him as he spit into his mitt. One thousand tongues applauded as he clenched his teeth with grit, And while the writhing referee ground the ball into his hip Defiance gleamed in Johnny’s eye, a sneer was on his lip. And now the poor old basket ball went hurling into space, And Johnny stood there watching it with smiles upon his face. Close by the sturdy center the ball took to the air , But Johnny stood a watching it in haughty grandeur there. Up went the other center, and he tipped the ball his way. And it might have been a basket had not Wilbur spoiled the play. Up went the sturdy Wilbur, and he knocked the ball toward John, But Johnny stood a watching it and let the ball go on; The ball, it took its onward course (he knew it wasn’t long) Then Johnny made a splendid dash, but bingo, went the gong! Oh! somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright, The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light Somewhere men are happy, and somewhere men are gay. But there is no joy in Rawlins on this most gloomy day. —Billie Clifford. History of the Class of 1921 On a well-remembered day in September of 1917, forty Freshmen entered the Rawlins High School. For the first week or ten days, the teachers were busy arranging the blessed forty so that they couldn’t congest one corner of the Assembly Hall. Then on about the thirteenth day the gallant and noble Seniors, Juniors and Sophomores presented us with a cradle wrapped in gold and white ribbons containing a little doll. That was all right, but—after school that evening some fellows from the upper classes got together and initiated us. We took it (because we had to), figuring that we could do the same to the next year’s Freshmen. We were the sole attraction for the rest of the year; learning the school’s rules, meeting the other students, and studying hard. This is the line-up for the Freshmen of 1917-18: Christie Anderson, Fridolf Anderson, Reuel Armstrong, Nellie' Cohagen, Lottie Coulson, George Edwards, Catherine France, William Hobbs, Annette Hugus, George Balogh, Leo Keefe, Arnold Larson, John Larson, Louis Larson, Dale Magor, Philip Mahoney, Elmer Neilson, James O’Donnell, Patsy O’Melia, Harold Peterson, David Sheltron, Stanley Sundell, Carl Waeckerlin, Wilbur Walck, Earl Wilkes, Eva Brown, Viola Jorgenson, Sadie Keefe, Morene Kuykendall, Agnes May, Mathia Miller, Paul Vermillion, Feme Mclnturff, Treva Lawler, Clara Stevens, Dorothy Yerxa, Dorothy Zingsheim, Curtis House and Arthur Vanderbeck. Our work consisted chiefly of mastering algebra, English and the Latin language. Of course, there were no special difficulties encountered in the complete mastery of any of these subjects. As a side line and to fill in unoccupied time Tippy and Treva delved into astronomy and made several important discoveries while star gazing. We had so much talent in our class that at this late date it is difficult to say who was the peer of the student body. Many learned debates took place between teacher and pupil, and on one occasion well do I remember that Miss Henry remarked: “Earl, there are many things you never know until you find out.” As a whole, the year was a great success, because Dale said so. There were none flunked except the flunkies. It goes without saying that our class of ’21 could not fail in the Sophomore year with the sound foundation which we made during our Freshmen year. A good portion of the year wras spent in wars and rumors of wars. Until matters had become so tense that in order to save the day and prove to the world that our contentions were right, it became necessary for us to enlist our fathers and mothers in one of the wordiest conflicts in history. Geometry proved to be a mere pastime for most of us, but I remember when Elmer was troubled with a theorem that Miss Sherman said: “Elmer, your mind seems unclouded with a single thought,” and also when Christie said: “The Greeks must never have amounted to much, or why would Pythogorus think he had mads such a wonderful discovery when he learned that the square of the hypotenuse is ecjual to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Any ordinary parson knows that, and it isn’t half so difficult as ought times naught is naughty ought, and I discovered that myself.” During our Sophomore year our class corraled two members from the country. One was a pretty damsel from Encampment; the other a real sheep herder commonly known as the “Saratoga Ranger,” but in his early life he was christened Louis. At the close of the year our gallant number was twenty-nine. Upon entering the Junior year an impression generally prevailed among the members that we had learned practically everything worth while, and that no more hard work would be needed, so that the “midnight” oil has not been rapidly consumed. ’Tis well, too because oil is very high in price. Our class has become far famed from a number of angles. The High Schools basket ball team is the best in the state. With Close forwarding (not that we need him, but to encourage the Sophs to emulate our prowess), Philip also forwarding, Pat centering. Wilbur “the fort,” and Arnold guarding, we have the team’s lineup that may well be emulated in ages to come. For many years there has been a dearth of music in the Rawlins High School, and it remained for the Junior class to revive this lost art in the school. With George as cornetist, Lottie and Fridolf as violinists an excellent orchestra has been organized. In our Spanish class Dorothea primera and Dorothea segunda are a pair to draw to, and they frequently tell Mrs. Boyd that they will have their leccion en la manana and Arnold says explaining, “How different my lesson would have been had things only been different.” “Quae cum omnia ita sint,” as Stanley says; not only are many facts recorded but history has been written of a class that will be renowned for years to come. Finis. REUEL ARMSTRONG, ’21. The Juniors in 1935 I have always longed to travel; so after graduation from R. H .S., when I accepted the position as cartoonist for the Saratoga Sun, I determined to put in the bank ten dollars each month ,with the hope of some day making an extended tour of North America. In the year 1933, I had both cash and inclination to start my journey, so on May 25, myself and a wealthy friend started on our way to California. We boarded the “Slow and Easy” at Saratoga, and, after an hour’s ride, arrived at Walcott, where it was necessary to change cars. There we had a wait of an hour or two, so decided to look about the city. As I left the depot, the first thing that attracted my attention was a brilliantly colored sign, which read: “E. Nicholson, Pawn Shop, Watches and Clocks a Specialty.” When we reentered the depot I noticed an old maidish sort of person— her hair combed straight back, high collar, a long, full skirt, a shawl about her shoulders, and a severe black hat balanced on her head. Her face looked quite familiar and in spite of her altered appearance, I recognized her as Dorothy Yerxa. She, too, was waiting for a train, she told me, after our greetings were over. She had been visiting her aunt in Walcott, and was now on her way back to Rawlins. When at last we were again on our journey, she told me that the owner of the pawn shop was indeed our old classmate, Elmer Nielson. When she learned that I intended to wait until my return to stop at my old home, she promised me a great surprise during, my visit, but would not tell me what it would be. She left me at Rawlins, much to my regret, for I would probably have learned a great deal more of my old associates of the Rawlins High, had she remained with me. As it was, I picked up a pamphlet which my friend had been reading, so that I could pass part of the time—you all know how interesting travel is west of Rawlins. The pamphlet was entitled, “Reduce Your Fat!” by Chrystie Anderson. Could it be that our fun-loving Chrystie had become an authoress? Perhaps she was adapted for that kind of work and well versed in her subject. I will not mention much of my trip to California, as I have many more important things of which to speak. On my way to the coast I decided to change my route, and go by way of Texas, so that I might visit some relatives there. During my visit we went to see the aviation field at San Antonio. Imagine my surprise on finding my old classmate, Wilbur Walck, in charge of the field. How handsome he looked in his uniform—and so very, very much different than he used to be. While I was talking over old times with him my friend was struck by a shining black limousine, driven by a liveried chauffeur. A passing roadster took my companion to a doctor, and I told the chauffeur to follow the roadster. He turned to receive his mistress’ sanction of this order, and as my glance followed his, I observed a handsomely gowned woman who very excitedly commanded him to proceed. I recognized her as Feme Mclnturff, but as she was plainly very much agitated by the accident, I said nothing to her. The object of my interest was in the chaffeur, who also looked decidedly familiar. Who was it but Dale Magor, in the most immaculate uniform, and scarcely recognizable. On account of Feme’s nerves, which were badly upset, we were unable to go very fast; so when we at last arrived at the doctor’s office the office girl told us that Dr. Edwards would soon have my friend “fixed up.” As I waited I pondered over the name “Edwards”—it seemed so strangely familiar, but my thoughts had not wandered far before the doctor appeared. He was tall, well built, of dark complexion and very professional looking with his Vandyke beard and tortoise-rimmed glasses. But not until he spoke was I convinced that he was indeed a former member of the class of ’21. After the customary greetings were over. Dr. Edwards, the noted osteopath, invited Wilbur, Dale, Feme, my friend and myself to dinner that evening. We gladly accepted his kind invitation, for was it not an honor? We arrived at a large cafe—Dr. Edwards said he always enioved going to this particular place—and we soon found out his reason for this. James O’Donnell was the head chef! In his cook’s apron and high white cap he looked like the chef pictured in the advertisements for Van Camp’s pork and beans, with the exception of the French air, entirely assumed by our Irish friend. W’e were, of course, very glad :o see him, and to learn that he had succeeded so well in life. But I seem to be getting away from my subject. Dr. Edwards also told me that Louis Schilt was at present, a teacher of Caesar and Cicero, in a neighboring city. I was not surprised, as I remembered how fond Louis used to be of these particular subjects, back in the R. H. S. days. As we were talking of the various members of the class of 21. Wilbur informed us that Pat was athletic instructor at Fort Steele, and that they then had the best basket ball team in the state, due, of course, to their efficient coach. Altogether we spent a very enjoyable evening, and the next morning my friend and I set out again. We had a grand time, but not until nearly a month later did we see any more of my old classmates. But you will never guess who it was and where he was. He—Philip Mahoney, was in Alaska, an agent for the Pierce-Arrow Motor Co., and he was having wonderful success. While in a small town of that same countrv, I decided to find out what their shows were like; but there was nothing to find out —they have movies the same as we do. Theda Bara’s successor, Norma Meason, was acting and I enjoyed the picture immensely. I did not tarry long in Alaska, as I was not very fond of that climate, so, after several more days of travel I decided to return home. I did not forget my promise to Dorothy Yerxa, however, and stopped at Rawlins This place had grown steadily and was now a large city. Dorothy took me to her home, which looked, as I imagined it would—a trim little bungalow out in Park Hill—fully as tidy as herself. After a day or two of rest, she invited her friends to visit me. They came. Who should they be but Dorothy Zingsheim and Nellie Cohagen, and from their looks I judged that they, too had let the leap years pass without taking undue advantage of them. The first thing she did (and this was one of her surprises), was to play a new (?) record for me. This was her favorite piece, and it was entitled “Silver Threads Among the Gold,” by Stanley Sundell. No wonder she was so fond of it? y ,,But {.s5a11 endeavor to tell my readers everything, in one talk, for that would be quite impossible. Such talkers! I never have heard or expect to hear gam. But I will try to relate briefly the facts I gathered from this interview. First: Arnold Larson and Clara Stevens were married in 1925, and they have the loveliest home, also in Park Hill. Second: Clara Fridolf Anderson has made his fortune in oil; and third, Johnnie Larson is still handsome, rich and single—that he was to be married, but his girl changed her mind, and since then he has been a regular “woman hater.” Before I left Rawlins 1 met Reuel Armstrong, now a great lawyer, and he informed me that Corinne was just fine, also that Reuel, Jr., had two teeth. After I left the city I stopped at Granville to see my old friends, Lottie Coulson and Agnes May again. Granville has also grown to be a city. Lottie and Agnes have their sign, “Beauty Parlor—Hair Dressing a Specialty.” They do quite a paying business there. I believe I have either seen or heard of every member of our class of ’21 except Earl Wilkes. I am still a subscriber for the Gregg Writer, and when I again reached home I found two copies had arrived since I departed. In one of these was an interesting item, and a picture. The item concerned the winning of the typewriting medal for accuracy, and the picture was of Earl Wilkes, the winner of the medal. I was glad to know that one of our class had had such an honor bestowed upon him. And now, friends, I can turn to my work with more ideas to work upon, and some pleasant memories of the good old class of ’21. MORENE KUYKENDALL, ’21. A Team There Was A team there was and they made their prayer, Even as you and I. Only to beat the Sophomore there They called them the team that did not care, But wow! Didn’t they rave and swear? Even as you and I. Oh! the goals they made, and the way they played, And the work of the five men band, All spoiled by a team that did not know, ’Twas the wildest kind of a rotten throw, But still we kept them on the go And they could not understand. The rooters there were and the money they spent, Even as you and I. For a little balcony seat, even that it went, Seeing a basket ball game, and so they went, Even as you and I. A basket! A goal! some fellow cried, Even as you and I. There were two minutes left and the score was tied. When Kim put one on its fatal ride Right through the basket the ball did glide, Even as you and I. Oh! it’s not the defeat or the being beat That stings like a red hot brand, But to think being beat by a team like that, That never knew where thev were at And could never understand. The end.

Dear Friend: Well, here I am in dear old Rawlins once more. I have seen many of our old friends of the class of '22 and have much to tell you. I arrived on No. 3 and went up to the Ferris Hotel. At supper I almost fainted when I saw Ellen Martin juggling trays just as unconcerned as you please. I saw her wink at a drummer, too. Now who would have believed that of Ellen? I looked over the paper next morning and discovered that Ava Mclnturff is happily married and is now residing in Evanston. I remember she was always speaking of letters from Evanston. Don’t you? There was also a writeup about “Miss Helena Jamerman going to San Francisco to take charge of the Orphan’s asylum.” Helena always was so fond of children. I noticed that “Mrs. W. B. Walck, nee Miss Nellie Murphy, was in Rawlins Saturday from the ranch near Snake river.” Oh, well! we all expected that. Next came this item: “Judge Close will preside at the next session of court. Rawlins has been very fortunate in having a man of such high ideals and good morals appointed to decide her legal questions.” After having finished my reading I went down town and did some shopping. I wandered into the beauty parlors of Feme Christensen. She certainly fixed my hair up in great style, too, although rather too fussy for an old maid like me. Don’t you rememb3r how charmingly she always arranged her hair in R. H. S. days? I bought a new “bunnit,” too’ as these Wyoming winds take a big hat right with them. Charlotte Draper has the most cunning little mode shop. We surely had a dandy visit and she told me heaps about our old bunch. You know what a little gossip Charlotte can be. Corinne Kinnaman and Fonitta Hansen have taken the veil. Can you imagine those two becoming nuns? I heard they were disappointed in love, so I suppose things are very well as they are. Kimbrough Breitenstein is a very successful dry (?) farmer near Wamsutter. Same old Kim! He specializes in “chickens.” I heard that Elizabeth Anderson is in the movies and that she is now starring in New York. Imagine our quiet Elizabeth on the stage! Dorothy Durant is said to be the most dependable nurse on the county hospital staff. Her cool-headedness and non-faint qualities speak well for her. Our old friend Marjorie Baker is distinguishing herself by arranging bridal boquets. Her love of the beautiful is expressed in the flowers with, which she surrounds herself. I went to church Sunday and listened to a most interesting sermon by Rev. Mr. Clifford. I heard that he once tried to buy suspenders at the Draper Mode Shop. Aren’t preachers absent minded sometimes? Edna Anderson is acting as a plain-clothes detective on that big murder case in Chicago. She showed great ability along this line in high school days. I have seen a new book advertised a great deal lately. It is “How to Refrain From Blushing,” by Francis Bahan, and was written for the special benefit of bashful boys. However, I find that poor “Fatty” remains a comfortable bachelor. No doubt you have seen in the papers that Mabel Rexford has gone to Rome to complete her vocal training. She is booked for a concert tour upon her return, and we must make a supreme effort to attend, as it will no doubt be the opportunity of a life time. Warren Potts is now here as “Wild and Wooly Warren.” His latest achievement is the capture of one of the native wild horses from the Haystack Mountains. Elmer Kell is herding sheep for Lillian Strandberg’s father. Do you remember Lillian’s smile? Can you blame poor Elmer? Lillian is a stenographer in a law office and goes out to the ranch for her vacation. No doubt you know that Harry Anderson has won some fame as a literary critic on the Denver Post staff. His criticisms were always given quite freely in school. As I was boarding a West Buffalo car yesterday I was assisted by a very polite motorman, who was no one else than Virgil Patrick. His ambitions, at last, for an electrical career, have been realized. I really believe my campaign for the “Elimination of Soft Drinks, Tobacco, French Heels and Bon-Bons” will be a huge success. Several noble women pledged themselves at the last meeting, and I expect many more to follow. Having gossiped sufficiently about our old classmates I will end this epistle which at least deserves the distinction of being called a novelette. Yours as ever, EDITH M. SMITH. What the Alphabet Means to the Sophomores A is for Ava, happy and gay. B is for Billie, joking all day. C is for Corinne, shining eyes and glossy hair. D is for Dorothy, with a California air.

N is for Nellie, somebody’s little lass. 0 is for Out of class we go. P is for Pictures, we always do show. Q is for Quizzes, which come every week. R is for Religion, which we all do seek. S is for Study, which we always do. T is for Things which never get through. U is for U. S., the big thing of the school. V is for Virgil, by far not a fool. W is for Whispering, our pastime in school. XYZ is just an unknown rule. History of the Class of ’22 September 4, 1918, was a very eventful day in the R. H. S. for the class of ’22. One by one twenty-four of us strolled into the High School Assembly hall, which seemed very odd to us. Of course we were very timid and all of us stood in one corner of the room until someone told us we could take any seat we wished. Gradually we began to make ourselves more at home and we were just getting settled when the Sophomores decided to initiate us by coloring the boys’ faces with red paint. Somehow the Sophomore girls were always threatening to give the Freshie girls what was coming to them, but we have never been able to find out why they didn’t do it. Everything went on finely and we were gradually coming to life. When we had seven weeks enforced vacation on account of the influenza, this rather put us behind in our work, but after working exceedingly hard and also going to school on Saturday mornings for a while, we succeeded in making up the work we had missed. Then came a day I think we shall never forget. This was March 10, when we went on a strike because of the expelling of Waid Wilkes and Pat O’Melia for a minor offense. We were out of school for a day and a half, but finally succeeded in having the boys reinstated. All during the year we seemed to be knocked about somewhat. We took it goodnaturedly, for we knew we would have our chance next year. During the past year five of our members—Edward Hughes, Alma Strandberg, Emma Miller, Malcom Jolley and Cecil Johnson dropped out, much to our disappointment, but we had four new members added to our class—Mabel Rexford, Warren Potts, Edith Smith and Feme Christensen, who are still with us to keep our class roll up to standard. Our Sophomore has proved much more pleasant than our Freshman year. We are no longer green, although the Juniors sometimes suggest that possibility. We are all hoping we will become dignified Juniors next year. And, oh, boy! What a Junior class old R. H. S. will have!

I came to praise the team, not to knock it. The games teams lose live after them, the games they win are often interred in their bones, so let it be with Rawlins. The Cheyenne people told us we were rotten. If it were so it was a grievous fault and grievously did Cheyenne answer it here before the eyes of Rawlins, March 4th. Cheyenne is honorable, so are they all. all honorable on their own floor. Cheyenne has played many a hard game whose actions did the general teams offend. When Rawlins lost Cheyenne won, which all happened on Cheyenne’s floor. Thrice did we think and hope to win out of four, but thrice did we lose, due to the different floors and poor referees. You all did praise the team once and not without cause, so what cause withholds you now to back it. My heart is with the Rawlins team and must pause until March 4th.

It is with considerable pride that we look upon the achievements of our five, ably seconded by four loyal substitutes who carried the red and white to victory in fifteen out of twenty games. Starting off with a rush that characterized all of their season’s work, in a close, fast game, their newly organized team functioning with considerable precision. Rawlins High was victor by the score of 30 to 28 against the local Alumni team. In passing it is well to mention that our opponents had in their number several star basket tossers famed all over the state for their clever throws, making the initial victory even more promising in its forecast of coming success. The first game with an out-of-town team was scheduled for December 6th to be played at Laramie with the University High School. There were a number of loyal rooters who believed it their duty to accompany the team and help make this first out-of-town game a big success. We returned with the honors—18 to 6. December 17 our team left on the western trip to play Rock Springs, Kemmerer and Evanston. With Rock Springs we scored our third victory Rawlins 35, Rock Springs 24. On this same trip, December 18th, we played Kemmerer. Again the glorious news came home—29 to 4 in favor of Rawlins. On December 19th, under several difficulties we met the Evanston Five in a good fast game, with a close score throughout the game, but ending 21 to 17 in favor of Evanston. Then came the game with Laramie High at Laramie, January 9th. Our boys were in very good condition for this game and surpassed the Laramie High in basket shooting, foul shooting and guarding. This made our fifth victory out of six games. A fine start! We say. January 15th the “Preps” came to Rawlins with minds set upon winning their second game with R. H. S. Rawlins had beat them on their floor, now it was their turn to beat Rawlins on its own floor. Fate was on our side again and the score was 29 to 14. Our return game with Rock Springs was scheduled for January 26. These two teams were well matched and both teams played a good clean game. Another winner for the Rawlins High! The score was 27 to 23. An eastern trip, playing Cheyenne Wheatland, Douglas and Casper, caused much anxiety in H. S. All expected these games to be “hard ones.” It was a long trip for our team and they had four hard teams with which to combat. We lost to Cheyenne—10 to 4. February 4th a continuation of this game was to be played again—iust a month later—having three differences: 1, a different floor; 2, a different coach; 3, a different spirit. The next team was Wheatland. This game was a victory for our opponents—36 to 14. We have one cheerful thought about this score—“It might have been worse.” At Douglas, the third game on this trip, we resumed our Victory Banner, and beat them to the tune of 29 to 18. In our fourth game Casper was given the privilege of winning by a majority of three small points— hardly won at that. This trip was the last one, until the tournament beginning March 25th. Except that on our home floor we played and won over Evanston. This score was 37 to 6. February 26th, Laramie High met defeat at Rawlins to the tune of 48 to 11. A small score—that is 11 points is a small score. The game which was afterwards called “The game of the season,” between Rawlins and Cheyenne, was played March 4th. This game brought in too many exciting details for me to attempt to describe it in full. The Cheyenne five had bravely boasted that this time they would show no mercy for the Rawlins five. However, we turned the tables on Cheyenne, unaware of their challenge, and defeated them 34 to 12. We played Encampment March 12th. Encampment received their defeat in a real sporting spirit. This score was 72 to 10. The last game of the season played on our own floor was with Douglas. This game gave us the right to say that we had won every game played on our home floor. We beat them 53 to 16. March 24th the Rawlins five left to enter the third annual basket ball tournament at Laramie University. We drew four games, one with Torrington, the score being in our favor, 15 to 11, one with Worland, 8 to 6 in favor of Worland. One with Rock Springs, 24 to 8 in favor of Rawlins. This game is said to have been one of the best games during the tournament, having the highest majority of points in any one game. Laramie High defeated us—9 to 6. I feel that the less said in the winning of the tournament the better. Not that there was a better basket ball team than ours represented—no —but other teams, such as Cheyenne and Rock Springs, happened to be in better condition and luck was with them. We hope to have profitted by our loss and prove next year the statements made that Rawlins High School has the best basket ball team in the State. The tournament closed a long and very successful basket ball season —probably the best R. H. S. has ever had. The team and its loyal rooters in Rawlins High School owe a great deal of their success to the fact that encouragement and support never weakened on the part of the ball fans of Rawlins. Too much thanks cannot be given nor appreciation shown to these loyal backers and we wish to take this opportunity to extend our heartiest thanks and appreciation. FRANCES PHELAN, ’20. ORCHESTRA GIRLS’ GI.EE CLUB Rawlins High School Orchestra The first orchestra in the history of Rawlins High School was organized and directed this year by Miss Rice, the Musical Instructor of Rawlins High School. Attempts of this nature have been made in preceding years but none have been so successfully carried out as this. The orchestra has on several occasions, furnished music for the High School, for chapel exercises and has accompanied two musical plays which have been staged during the year. The memebrs of the orchestra are: Piano—Juanita Howard. First Violins—Fannie Feldmann, Fridolf Anderson. Second Violins—Lottie Coulson, Oswald Seaverson, Robert Bible. Cornets—George Edwards, Reuel Armstrong. Drum—Kimbrough Breitenstein. Clarinet—Elmer Neilsen. Flute—James Mahoney. Saxaphone—Dale Magor. The High School Glee Club In September, the first of the school year, the Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs were organized, having had no such opportunity of this sort before we were at first miserable failures. However, the interest of the members was held the first month and from then on things began to go more smoothly. All seemed to enjoy the singing classes and soon the boys put on the minstrel show. This took place in October on the thirtieth and thirty-first in the high school auditorium. It was such a success that the girls gained courage and decided that they could do as well as the boys. Besides they couldn’t stand to be beaten by them. But when the second semester began, because of the re-arrangement of the classes, the Boys’ Glee Club was entirely broken up and all that is left is the Boys’ Quartet, which is represented by Billie Clifford, Fritz Anderson, Pat O’Melia and Tippy Mahoney. Although the membership of the Girls’ Club was somewhat decreased, the classes continued. In February, on the twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth, the girls and boys included, gave “Love Pirates of Hawaii.” Of course the boys may have a notion that they caused the operetta to prove such a success. Then again, perhaps the girls have a clear idea to whom the success was due. We have progressed more rapidly of late and are now preparing our songs for Commencement. Much credit is due to Miss Rice for the success of our Glee Club work and we are hoping that she may continue this work next year.

During the first month little progress was made and most of the class decided that art was a hopeless undertaking. We started on designing and after trying several weeks we could see the resemblance between our own work and the pattern. After we succeeded in designing we were somewhat encouraged and our work began to gradually improve. The course this year consist of designing, lettering, work on bookplates, placards, decorative, still life, modelling, posters and calendars. The work on the posters advertising “The Love Pirates of Hawaii,” displayed the artistic ability of various members of the class. The latter part of the year the class have devoted most of their time to the working out of posters and headings for the different department' of the annual. The class have exemplified the practicability of their work by painting the interior walls of the Art Room. Not satisfied with the work of the regular art class various boys of the Sophomore and Junior classes have decided to further decorate the walls by placing in conspicuous places am. in flashing colors their own initials. CHARLOTTE DRAPER. Jokes Mottoes for All When passing through halls make as much noise as possible. It breaks the monotony of recitations. In the library talk loudly. In class—be seen and not heard. If you see anything lying around loose just take it. Question—Why is a pupil like a banjo? Answer—Because the teachers are always picking on them. Boy—Mr. Robuck, can you be whipped for something you didn’t do? Mr. Robuck—No. Boy—Hooray! I haven’t done my lessons for a weex. In the physical geography class, Mr. Robuck asked Mollie what caused thunder, and Mollie said, “Oh! the clouds rolling in the air and bumping against each other.” Ruby seems to be quite patriotic. Everything she says concerns U. S. (Waugh). Bill L. (in English)—“He reached in his pocket and found it was gone.” James M. (in Ancient History)—“The great Ottoman Empire had Greece in it.” Bill L.—“The sun came up next morning, altho it had frozen hard during the night.” Ava—“Say, I don’t believe I will get married until I am about 21 years old.” Eleanor—“Well, it is always polite to wait ‘till you are asked.’ ” Wilbut Walck (when marching down to the laboratory on the lower floor where the kindergarten is located)—“I will now take a drink from the Fountain of Youth.” Feme Christensen (after being asked a question in Civics by Mr. Anderson)—“Well it’s this way, well, you know what I mean, don’t you?” Billy Clifford (in Biology)—“Mr. Robuck, if a man died and he petrified, and supposing he had a red mustache, would it still be red after he petrified ?” Kim.

C. KINNAMAN, Manager Happiness Slumber Mountain was located in the pleasant little corner of the island of make believe. Also was the valley of happiness through which runs the silent river of peace. The little town of Comfort was situated near the peak that never was, and guarded the fading hopes of yesterday. Here lived the King of Laziness, who longed to win the daughter of Mr. Laughter and Smiles creators of joy. Here also lived his brother, Thriftiness, who longed to make her his bride. But the King of Laziness lost when he was too lazy to propose, and his brother, Thriftiness, won. And now the sun of sometime shines on the little church of perfect Happiness and on their little castle of Dreams that is located near the peak that never was. Here the daughter of Mr. Laughter and Smiles reigns as the Queen of Beauty, with him, the King of Happiness. They are now seen strolling down the path that should have been (guided by their child called Love) that leads to a Heavenly Home and Happiness. While the King of Laziness lingers in the lane of hazy memories. BILLIE CLIFFORD. Tippy was our Captain bold, Harold rolled ’em in. Every time that Pat was right The red and white would win.

A Kiss in the Rain One stormy night, after a basket ball game, I chanced to meet a classie jane, Her locks were like the ripened wheat, Her sparkling eyes were brown. I watched her as she tripped along, Till madness filled my brain; And then—and then—I know ’twas wrong, I kissed her in the rain. Oh! let the clouds grow dark above, My heart is light below, But it’s always summer when we make love, However winds may blow; And I am proud as any man, To hold her little hand, She says I’m her rain-beau Since I kissed her in the rain. F. A. Mr. Robuck—“Did you ever look an arc light straight in the eye?” Eva—“No! I never knew it had one.” We find that even the faculty think and say funny things now and then, and that they too, make mistakes. For instance; nearly all year they had labored under the impression that John and Chrystie had a terrible “case” on each other. Imagine their surprise to learn that they were only cousins! Mr. Tudor begins calling the roll of his first class of girls. Fonitta (interrupting)—“How did you hurt your finger, Mr. Tudor?’ “Bit it,” growled Mr. Tudor. “Who bit it?” asked Mabel. Mr. Tudor (continuing to call the roll)—“Charlotte Draper.” Mrs. Dunlap (in English I.)—“It’s just like taking a baby lamb and letting the mother lamb cry for it.” Ralins, Yoming. March 8, 1930.

A Vital Point For Young Men A very good indication as to a young man’s future is the amount of salary he receives—it’s usually in proportion to the amount and value of the services he is rendering to his employer’s customers. But a Far Better Indication is the amount he saves. If you receive $100.00 a month and save $10.00 of it, you are worth far more to yourself and everyone else than he who earns $200.00 a month and saves nothing. There is just one way for a man to figure his cash value to himself, and that is the amount of his surplus at the end of a year’s work. Now is the Time to make yourself worth more to yourself and others. Open a 4% interest bearing account for your savings. Plan how much you will add to it at regular intervals, and plan to leave the interest with the principal so that your savings may be compounded annually. Delays pay no interest—Act Now! Choose Early, Young Man, and Rightly. Whether you are in business for yourself or working for others we want your account and your acquaintance. “Speak of the First National as Your Bank—it identifies you.” Have a checking account as soon as you can. Business men will see that you have something more than the change in your pocket—that no matter how young you may be there is something substantial about you. “Pay with checks on The First National Bank,” it identifies you.” The First National Bank Rawlins, Wyoming ♦ ♦$� «$� ♦ 5 •$ •$ •$ $� •$ 4� !4 i t4 •S 4t4 4t4 $• t4 t4 J4 • t4 •J4 !4 4 J� •$ «|� j� «$� 4« «$� g� ♦♦♦ .♦. ?« A Day in Caesar Class Down the stairs responding to the bell to pass to classes, comes the Caesar class, pell, mell, bank! There goes Fonitta and Mabel, head over heels, downstairs. “Mabel and Fonitta, go upstairs and try to walk down decent,” growled Mrs. Boyd. Francis, the first one into Caesar room, slams the door and holds it for several minutes. Finally we all succeed in getting seated. “Hand in your verbs,” says Mrs. Boyd. “There was too many verbs today and I got tired o’ writing ’em,” replies Virgil. Francis climbs on the radiator to pull the shade and burns himself in the act, sending out a dismal wail. “Mrs. Boyd, does exeo mean ‘come in’ or ‘go out?’” asks Charlotte. Say have you heard the latest?” whispers Corinne to Fonitta. “Girls, let’s have the talking stopped in the back row! If you want to talk you must talk Latin.” A loud noise is heard in the hall and we all crane our necks for fear we’ll miss something. “It’s only chairs. If you have never seen them before, you may go out and look at them,” replies Mrs. Boyd. “Let us get to Caesar. Kimbrough, you may begin reading.” Kim reads about two lines and stops, asking, “is that enough ?” “No! Read to the period.” Kim starts translating, “Caesar led his army to the river, where they found fords and crossed it. I knew it would take a Ford to get ’em across.” The boys quartette are practicing downstairs and Fonitta, who sits by the pipe, gets the full benefit of it,.as their “oo-la la” detracts her mind from the Caesar lesson. Ellen Martin, always perfect behavior and perfect silence. Helen Arthaud as usual is the only one who has her lesson. A miracle happens and we finish our lesson in thirty minutes and ten glorious minutes are left for a conversation with Mrs. Boyd. Of course her recent marriage is mentioned. “Did you know you were going to get married when you went down to Laramie?” pops up Mabel. “Yes,” calmly replies Mrs. Boyd. Nellie then chimes in. “How does it seem to get married?” “Aw! Write a book and then they’ll know all about it,” yells out Virgil. Mrs. Boyd then pleases the class immensely by saying, “When I get out on my ranch I will fix up a box of goodies and send you.” “You can send it in care of me,” replies Lewis. We all become hungry at the thought of good eats, whereby Francis takes the opportunity to pass some gum. Then, the bell rings and we all make a mad rush for the door before the lesson has been assigned, but unlucky as we generally are, we are stopped by the loud voice of Mrs. Boyd, “Take the next two chapters for tomorrow.” IRVING LARSON I COAL DEALERS PHONE 68 DRS.

After a large part of the students were present, some one brought word that President Wilson’s special would arrive at 10 A. M. Upon hearing this everyone was very much excited to get out and see the President. At 10 o’clock the classes were all called to the Assembly, where Mr. Anderson told them they would be given the privilege of going to the train if they would come back to school . ust as soon as the train pulled out, and of course every one was in favor of coming back! The school was dismissed and about one hundred students rushed down the street as if the world was coming to an end. A crowd had already gathered at the depot, but the train was yet to come. After the H. S. students had been there for about five minutes it was noticed that every one else had been pushed aside that they might have the best place from which to view the President. After some time of waiting and chattering the train came puffing in and every one was well satisfied with seeing Mr. Wilson, but not with the address he delivered. Soon the train pulled out and all of the students of the High got together and decided that the day was too nice to go back to school, so they all went out to the hills, where they had a very enjoyable time for the rest of the morning. At dinner time they all broke up as each one was feeling pretty hungry and all went home to get something to eat. That afternoon they met at the Opera House and all but about ten of the same bunch was there. An idea struck some one, and after looking around for some cars, they found them and went to the river. Oh, boy! They sure had some time swimming, and when the afternoon had passed they returned home, all well satisfied with the time they had, but worried about the time they were going to have when they got back to school next day. Well, they all went back the next day, and everything went fine until the closing hour, when the names were read of a group of students who were to remain. Well, to make a long s';ory short, they remained that night and a whole lot of other nights, each night for an hour, until the time lost was made up and that bur.ch was well satisfied.

Does Macey Lac Key? Does Frances Phel an anything? Has Kathleen Fay? Is Emily Mueller? (muller) Can she be merry on every day? Mr. Robuck Says: “Class, there is a good deal in ingenuity. Did I ever tell you the story of the Australian?” “An Australian once found himself in a place where he was starving to death. He had a pet dog that he thought a good deal of, and he also was starving. At last he became so hungry that he decided to kill the dog and eat it, but he thought he would wait until the next morning. During the night, he thought of the following plan. He cut off the dog’s tail, cooked it, ate the meat and fed the bones to the dog, thus saving both of their lives. “Anything that stops class, is called a stopper.” “Some of you girls here should wear fresh paint signs on your faces.” “I think that most of you students are blessed with good forgetters.” His favorite expression is. “In my boyhood days.” THE WAY QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED IN DOMESTIC SCIENCE 1— Three leavening agents are: spatula, cup and tablespoon. 2— A false hem is put on the bottom of skirts which have grown too short. 3— Micro-organisms are food principles that are invisible to the eye. 4— A facing is a business that joins a dress and its collar.

A tack was found to be the cause of such rapid emotion. Mr. Robuck suggests that the Seniors be presented with clothespins for their noses; he thinks that perhaps then they would not talk quite so much. � � ««J� � J« «J� «J «J-� «$• «J «j J «J «$ «J «J «J «J� � « ► « «J «$ «j J A «j� «$� «$� «$• «J� J J «$ ♦• J «{• J «J •£� «j� A A A A «J A A A A ♦£• «J� J J� «j «j J � « «j «j «g� «J� J J« J J ❖ OUR CLAIM: The Best Furniture Values OCR AIM: TO PLEASE ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ 4 I ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ •j. ❖ « ❖ ♦ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ CHARLES MILLER “The Furniture Man” %♦ $ v ❖ ❖ ❖ Bennett’s Hardware Store I V ♦ V V —HAS A COMPLETE STOCK OF— HARDWARE TINWARE ENAMEL WARE STOVES FAINTS, OILS and VARNISHES GUNS AND AMMUNITION CUTLERY it L Our Prices Are Right—Call and See Us 4� l $� ♦ «$� 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4� 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 ❖❖•J ❖ ❖❖❖ � ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖❖❖❖❖❖•!•❖• ❖ ❖❖ • ❖ RENDLE’S DRUG STORE PRESCRIPTION DRUGGISTS :• • ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ Some Things Worth While-We Do Well f ❖ ♦ ❖ •: ❖ f f V f f ❖ § •: •: Our aim is to keep our stock complete and up-to-date.
