I had heard from various reports that there was a very excellent airport in Republic, I decided to drive out and on the way I could stop at Scipio-Repubic College, It was headed by Professor Carl W, hall who also teaches a class in agriculture. Carl said that the school nurse was Marjorie Echelberry who had just finished a course in nursing, I stopped to visit with her in the hope that she miQht he able to inform me about my former classmates. When I inquired as to the whereabouts of her close friend Freda Wenner,she told me that she was employed as an army hostess at a nearby army camp, and that Jerry Holmer was also employed there, making the soldiers forget about the girls back home, When I reached the airport I found Hobest Chaney at the Controls of onezof the new trans-continental liners, The charming hostess walked up,and I san that it was Mary Roope. 1 Paul Yates, one of tneir best machanics, was warming up the plane for a flight. They were getting ready to take-off so I said 5ood-byeTand left, As I drove away I rapidly concluded that my fellow class mates were certainly Doing HOnWard In Their Aimsyn by Regina stark f B School is likeean apprenticeship, To life's greatest work, I Each day isn't measured in dollars and cents, But in registration of intelligence. So commencement night has crouched upon us, In a cold, and silent tone, We are now entering life's bus, And on our route of life alone, When we're traveIing doin life's boulevard, Or on misfortunes highway, We'll come to many Hby roadsn of tempting folly, Which will lead us from a perfect day. SQ let's keep onward in all the deeds we do, And when the driver shouts, USuccesslH Let's hand him a clean ticket and confess, Here we are the class of nineteen hundred forty-two. Although, those dear teachers made us build our road strong, Teaching us to patch4 the Hrutsn as we went along, And as we look back over the long, long way, Eetls remember it as Ha port of memories.H So again we say good-bye, to teachers and to friends, For we are at the crossroads, but our journey doesn't end, 1 In saying, nGood Luck,H we are ready to depart, From all our other classmates, with a kind and loving heart, 4
