THE OCKSHEPERIDA and shaking a warning finger emphatically, said, “Madam—one toot and you’re oot.” Many people always avail themselves of “making better” by New Year’s resolutions, and others think they can be made no better, for they have already attained the highest degrees. But they find themselves mistaken, as did a physician who had practiced his profession for fifteen years. He said, “I thought I had answered almost every poosible ‘fool’ question; but a new one was sprung on me, recently. A young man came in, who had an inflamed eye, i pre- scribed medici 17 office, but returned in a few minutes, poked his head in the doorway, and asked, “Shall I drop this into the eye before meals or after?” Just take notice to recognize the effects of our resolutions. Though some people appear deaf, to the dictation of others, they always hear something, as did the old gentleman whose hearing was l ecoming very ineffective. As he was crossing over a railroad bridge, a train underneath gave a deafening whistle. “First robin I have heard this spring,’’ he calmly remarked.

16 THE OCKSHEPERIDA Alumni Notes Ruth Evans We were glad to have so many of the Alumni members, who were absent itom Sheridan, to return and enjoy the Christmas season with us, among whom were Myrtle Smith, Mabelle Goehring, Georgia Sheldon, Helen Stuby, Irvin Smith, Helen Huffman, One Toland, Charlie Miller, Josephine Adams and Eva Williams. DeRoyce Dudley of Basin spent a portion of the holidays in Sheridan. The Alumni association of the S. H. S. gave one of the most successful dances of the season on Christmas night. Its attendance of about one hundred and twenty-five couples, exceeded those of previous occasions. The four-piece orchestra was exceptionally good. Light refreshments were served, and dancing was continued until I o’clock. Those who participated in the pleasures of the evening said that it was the best ever. During the holidays Mr. and Mrs. George P. June, of Buffalo, Wyo., were the guests of their daughter, Mrs. Harry Wood. Mr. Percy Metz of Basin, Wyo., spent Christmas with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Metz. Hazel Stahl was in Sheridan to attend the Alumni dance, on Christmas night. Eva Williams entertained the Daughters of the King on the evening of December 26th. Prof. Herbst gave a 6 o’clock dinner at the Great Western hotel on Decem-! er 29, for the members of his German class of ’11, namely: Misses Mabelle Goehring, Josephine Adams, Georgia Sheldon, Helen Stuby, Ruth Evans, Claire Cone, Nelle Polly and Lorena Dunning. Geneva Messick, a member of the class before its High school career, was also present. Unfortunately the boys of the class, Peter Paul, Will Metz and Seymour Sharp, did not return to their homes for their Christmas vacation. “Fessor” extended the pleasures of the evening by giving a theatre party. On December 31st, Florence Pate became Mrs. Henry Warriner, at her home, 204 Sherman Avenue. We wish Mr. and Mrs. Warriner the many greetings of the new year. Ada Brittain of Buffalo, Wyoming, spent a few days visiting in Sheridan, previous to the holidays. Fred Portz is in Omaha, where he has undergone an operation. We hope his recovery will be speedy. Of course we have made numerous good resolutions, and determined to execute them. Sometimes one’s motives are misrepresented, as were those of the old Scotch lady’s. She was compelled to carry an ear-trumpet wherever she went. Upon visiting a small church, she was watched very suspiciously by the sexton until she reached her seat. Then, as if he could stand the suspicion no longer, he went to her,

18 THE OGKSHEPERIDA Sophie—“We had a turkey for dinner Christmas.” Freshie—“Huh! That’s nothin’. We had a preacher.” A Freshy entered a car and left the door open. “Say,” bawled a Senior in the corner, “were you raised in a barn ? Shut the door.” The Freshy closed the door and went to his seat and wept. “I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings,” said the Senior. “You didn’t hurt my feelings,” grinned the Freshy, “but I was raised in a barn, and every time I hear a donkey bray, it makes me homesick.” Freshmen Notes E.

Mr. Sherman—“Now that is the way to work this example.” Anna Axton (in a whisper)—“That is the way I got it, only I didn’t get it.” Teacher—“Sam, you don’t know even that George Washington is dead.’’ Colored Boy—“No, indeed, suh; didn’t know he was sick.” Jack Moody just returned to school this week. I guess he did not know when vacation ended. One of our girls seems unable to stand up. Anyone finding a remedy, please take to Anna Axton. Teacher—“What sensation have you when you first begin a public speech?” Bright Pupil—“I feel like there was a vacuum inside my ribs.” The Freshmen held a meeting to decide upon a sleigh ride. But since the snow has nearly all melted we have postponed it. Anna Axton was chairman of the meeting.
