If, in future years, the turning of these pages will bring back the smiles and tears of our school days, the effort of the staff and class will be amply repaid.

The faculty, the Sophomores, The Freshmen are included, too, The Juniors, who will take our place And head the school, as Seniors do. The teachers, each and all, have done Their part to help us play the game, To do our work. to join the throng VS'ho face the World with high-held aim. Inspiring our work toward higher goals Is Mr. DeJonge of character high. And Withenbury, a friend to us all, Who inspires within us a zeal to try. Of the other four men of the faculty group Theres Henderson first, in the grades all the day, Then Hukill and Greene, both favorites here, And Tillotson, who coaches the boys at their play. 1 M.ss W ylie, Miss Shaffer, Miss Dickie, Miss Doub Teaching classes this year we daily have seen, Then Miss Rottschafer also is following on, As S. G. A. advisor we crown her a queen. And then in the various grades will be found Miss Killmer, Miss Seelig, Miss Hook, who all please. As does Mcliinlay, the coach of the girls who like sports, And Miss Hawley who teaches the Glee Clubs with ease. There is one not classed with the faculty group, Perhaps I should tell you and not make you guess, Our office girl, Marian, a friend to us all, The type of friend that we all like the best. Some others not found in the faculty group, Are the school board members whose help in the past We duly appreciate and now thank them, too, Their aid is not least though they're listed as lust. One thing we shall cherish through all our days Old Shelby High gave us-a spirit that strives For the highest and best in our work and our sport This shall be with us throughout all our lives. -LaVerne Oberlin 7 8 , ff- iw l X!

Donald Henrickson 20 SHELBY HIGH SCHOOL FLEUR DE Lyra,- Class History When we, the class of 1936, met to begin our first flight together- in September, 1932. we hardly realized what the ensuing four years held in store for us. As we took off we chose Miss Dickie to guide us through the fog. Richard Kroll took the controls as our pilot with Robert Ferris at his side. Jo Baun carefully listened for calls and signals and Mary Read kept the metal on the plane shining brightly. Our first party was held the first week in November. We had a potluck supper in the control room. Afterward we danced and played games. It rained hard, but we had a delightful time, nevertheless, and Miss Dickie escorted as many of us to our homes as was possible. We were on the lookout constantly for some of our upper classmen who had threatened to initiate us. . In the fall the six grades in the studyhall took part in the presidential election. In the back of the room booths were set up and an honor student from each class was chosen to preside over the election. Alberta Royal was chosen from our class. On March 31, a group of 135, including high school faculty, and board of di- rectors, were entertaine-d by the Sophomqres at a party held in the gym. They called it the Moonlight Minglef' It was the first party of that kind held in our school and it proved to be a grand success. Our first year ended in May, 1933. XVe had planned a picnic to be held at Stony Lake but we were disappointed by a downpour which lasted until mid-afternoon. How- ever, tables were set up in the gym and we had our lunch there. lYith very few tears we landed our ship for three months of play in the sunshine. Again in September our enthusiastic group, now Sophomores, climbed aboard our plane under the eagle eyes of Mr. I-Iukill. Alberta Royal promised us a safe and sound trip with James Ensign as her helper. John Near and Dorothy Kelly took their places as Secretary and Treasurer. Our first stop was on November 3, when we entertained by giving the first party of the year. IVe called it Halloween Haven, and our decorations and the program carried out the effect. In the fall of 1933 the band and orchestra were organized under the direction of Mr. Louis F. Peterson, of Ludington, who is well known for his excellent work in this field. After exams were over we packed our lunch baskets, climbed out of our plane at Pentwater and had a joyous time. It was warm enough to go swimming so many doned their suits and vowed not to take them off again for three months. When we took off from Junior fleld in the fall of '34, we were much more accom- plished in the art of flying. This time we were carefully guided by Mr. Greene. We chose Mary Read for our pilot, and Jo Baun for co-pilot. Stanley Burson was our See retary and Richaid Kroll our Treasurer. . Our class was made somewhat larger by a group entering from outside schools. On December 14 we entertained the high school by giving a party called the Ever- green Dancef' We gave a radio broadcast for our prom-am. Our Junior Play, Mammas Baby Boy, was well attended on March 22. The High School Operetta, Tune In, given April 5, was also a success. We left our airship once more for summer vacation. hoping to come back again after three months to take our places as dignified Seniors. We again boarded our ship for the last lap of our journey on September 4, 1935. Ive chose Mr. lVithenbury to help us make this last year our best. lVinston Lewis took the controls and John Achterhof was elected Chief Mechanic, Dorothy Kelly, Secretary, and Mildred Tracy, Treasurer. lVe were glad to receive the high school news in the first edition of the S. G. A.'s Spotlight on October 11. IVe interrupted our journey two days to present the play, Kid Colby, on No- vember 28 and 29. It was a grand success. The S. G. A. put on a very good comedy called the Wild Oats Boy on March 18. Two days later we entertained the other classes by giving a party called the Springtime Frolicf' 21 SHELBY HIGH SCHOOL FLEUR DE LYS Perhaps the biggest event of all took place on April 30 when we skipped off to Ann Arbor to spend the day. We stopped off at Grand Rapids to eat our breakfast and then journeyed on. We arrived at our destination about noo11. We had a delightful time-different groups returning at all times. However, most of us got back in time to attend the Freshman Party given May 1. Later all the girls took parachutes and landed near Stony Lake where we spent the week end. The fellows followed our example and landed too, to spend Saturday evening with us. As our trip drew to an end, the Juniors gave us a royal banquet. The gym was beautifully decorated in the Senior colors, blue and silver, with their flowers, American Beauty Roses, on the tables. XVe leave our plane of Education with sad hearts. but with our motto. Our ideals are near the stars, we are sure we will land' our planes in the field of Success. -Ina Morse Class Prophecy As we, the prophets, look searchingly into the magic crystal globe, the years swiftly drop by-until suddenly 19-16 looms up. What has 'happened to all our classmates of 1936? Where are they? What have they been doing since their graduation from Shelby High School? These questions, and many others concerning our classmates keep running through our' minds. Therefore by untiring patience and divine inspiration, we glean how our classmates fare in their ways of life in the year 19-16-just ten years after our separa- tion. We find that John Achterhof. after experience in the stock market the past few years, has become a broker in New York City. Forrest Acker has at last realized his ambition and after years of training has become Lieutenant of the U. S. Navy Corps at Annapolis. We see Gerrit Adema, the well-known hunter and trapper, preparing to make an expedition into Northern Canada. William Ames, formerly called Bill, has given up his position as dancing teacher in a private school in Chicago. He has made a contract with a picture corporation in Hollywood. They expect him to become a second Fred Astaire before many months. Ellen Babinec, the famous lecturer, is touring the United States giving talks on Governmental Problems of the Day. Josephine Baun, who was the first nviatrix to fly around the world in a non-stop flight, has returned to join up with Paul Whiteman, Jr. and his orchestra. We wonder if Jo has been able to solve any of the radio's unexplainable electrical phenomena. Jesse Beckman is now football coach at Notre Dame. We find Thomas Blackaby a famous motion picture producer in Hollywood. We hear he has just completed a very successful year. Fred Dawson never did care for the big city, so he bought a farm and has become a very successful and prosperous farmer. Max Dekker, after completing a theological course, was placed in charge of a large Wesleyan church in Chicago. Theron Echelbarger, the noted movie star, has returned to Hollywood. He has spent the last few months touring Europe. James Ensign has married the -farmer's daughter. He makes hay while the sun shines and sows wild oats while the moon shine . Remember how good Esther Fox used to be in shorthand? She has the position of secretary to the president of the Ford Motor Company. Lera Griffith has achieved an honor never before held by' a woman. She has been appointed ambassador to France. Lester Hansen, the celebrated fruit grower of Western Michigan, has just pur- chased himself a fleet of trucks to go with his business. Donald Henrickson has held the position of janitor in the Senate building for several years. 22 SHELBY HIGH SCHOOL FLEUR DE LYS Carl Johnson lives on a farm west of Shelby. He is still a bachelor living on pork and beans and sardines. Kathryn Johnson has the position as helper to one of the leading specialists in the University hospital at Ann Arbor. Dorothy Kelly has the position of kindergarten teacher in the Shelby Public Schools. Ralph Kemink, returning from the literary game in the Ballyhoo, has dedicated his life to missionary work in China. Richard Kroll is a professor of Science at Harvard University. Winston Lewis is now practicing dentistry in Baltimore and from reports is doing a big business. Fredrick Lound was recently appointed mechanical instructor at West Point Military Academy. Ina Morse and Harold Wilson are married and living on a farm in Brazil, rais- ing nuts. No cracks. Alta Moschke and her husband are now touring the world on their honeymoon. Roger Mathews has the position of Fuller Brush representative. Don't be sur- prised if he knocks at your door some line day. John Near, our expert fisherman, is now enjoying a quiet but pleasant life at Isle Royale. Mildred Near has given her life for a career. She is Portia in a new version of Shake-sneare's play, Merchant of Venice. LaVerne Oberlin is now in the Senate debating on Child Labor. Mary Read has taken over the responsibility of the editor-in-chiet of the Chicago Tribune. Norma Roth owns and operates a beauty shop in Chicago. Alberta Royal. whose ability was so markedly shown in the 1936 publication of the Fleur de Lys, has a position as president of an Annual companyg rumors are her salary is 525.000 per year. Ethel Rumohr is teaching in a deaf and dumb school. She is doing it to save her voice. Edward Sanford has accepted the call of the wild and at the present is in the heart of Africa looking for vicious lions, wild cats and tigers.

Why I Should Buy a School Annual Most of the pleasure of life is based on our present circumstance, but only one short day and our present becomes our past. The memories of the past have been the cause of many a pleasant moment and fleeting day dream. Everywhere about us we see how mankind seeks to recall the past which was once the present. Observe the American dollar bill. Upon its face is the imprint of Washington, the Father of our Country. Turn to the tive dollar bill, you see the imprint of the great Emzuncipator. Turn the bill over and you see Lincoln Memorial, the greatest single con- tribution ever built in memory of one man. Recall the printed page how the present will he preserved for the future. As High School students our present must be recorded in a small way that those who fol- low may beneiit by our experience. We cannot build monuments in our memory, but the School Annual affords the greatest single means of recording our experience. It is first of all a permanent record, securely bound and beautifully printed. It records the imprint of those whom we have learned to appreciate and whose photos we prize. The School Annual records the happenings and experiences of one large happy family, the memory of which we shall always cherish. High School is often the turning point in our lives. Many important decisions are made during this time, and who of you dare forget? The School Annual becomes our re-ference book, and as we grow older we turn its pages to recall how Smith and Brown were always together, but time has made one a cook and the other a secretary. The Annual becomes a pastime as we sit by the iireside and relate to our chil- dren the things their Dad and Mother did. This book of memories will be used as a guide book for our sons and daughters. lt will inspire them because of our accomplishments. My motto is, An Annual for every Student. -Angie Vannette. 37 Q 18 MDM? SHELBY HIGH SCHOOL FLEUR DE LYS BACK ROW-llelen Ruker. sub Running Center: Mureuret Rowley. sub Jump Center: lleieu M4'Kinluy.

Our graduation seemed far away But an object of height when won. As Freshmen, we envied the Seniors, And it seemed it forever would be I'ntil Sophomores we were christened, lVe were Freshmen no longer, you see. This was one step toward our graduation, We began to enjoy 'all the fun. Then as Juniors we felt quite important For by each there was much to be done. Those three years had flown by very quickly Then at last our promotion received, Our goal was obtained, we were Seniors, We were Senio1's, the class in the lead. That year is the one in our me1n'ry To be found uppermost all the time, And our four years at Shelby will always Be of 1ll9lllUl'iL'S noble and fine. Now, although we're graduating, XVe're leaving llllIC1l behind, Wa-'re leaving all our high school friends, Students and teachers kind. We're under obligations To Shelby High School days, Here we received our greatest help To speed us on our ways. 'Twas here we started out to gain Our knowledge that through life Would help us solve our problems, And contend with daily strife. So, for the past four years WVe want to thank you one and all, For with your aid we've started out To answer our life's call. VVe're leaving Shelby High School, VYe're leaving friends so kind, And though we're graduating The best is left behind. But in the years to come we ll dream- Each member of this class - Of our Senior year at Shelby school, A year that's in the past. With n1em'ries fond of classmates, then VVe'll wonder where they've gone, What things they've done, what places seen What honors they have won. VVe'1l wonder if the ineunbers Of this class, both near and far, Have cherished the motto that we chose- 0ur ideals are near the stars. This motto which before us stands Is ours, to guide us on. We'1l hold it high, that in future years We shall have tried-and won.
