We Juniors thank the Class of '41 for its kind advice and hasten to return its good in- tentions with a few sage words of our own. Charles Hurlbut, we are indeed surprised at your inability to conduct yourself in a manner befitting your position as President of the Senior Class. And we do mean on your bus! We have heard of teachers' pets who get front seats-but a bus driver's pet is rare. Helen Ryan, we Juniors wonder why you like Rochester. It 1sn't because of a certain Smith boy, is it? Do you remember how he liked to skate in the dark? Sally Keough, you don't have anything to do with Shy Sh1eld's orchestra practicing at your house every Sunday, do you? It looks suspicious. And mighty convenient, too, --if you can get around the interference of your younger sister. Harold Alexander, wouldn't it have been more convenient for you to have sat with Mil- dred on the way to New York -- instead of sitting in front of her, and having to crane your neck all the way down? Ruth Wyant, a fickle girl is man's worst enemy. When you get a boy-friend like Jimmy Stein, don't drop him for a grasshopper like Sid Curtis. when you pick out a boy-friend, don't drop him like an old cloth: keep him tied to your apron strings. Paul Gallery, now that you are leaving LHCS, you will have to furnish your own milk at lunch time, and buy your own pop. It's been hard work this year for Vincent to bring enough milk for the two of you. Wally Duck, we believe you're girl-shy, but behind the scenes, we find a little girl, named Helen. we advise you not to take so long on the tennis court bench-maybe someone else would like to look at the moon. Geraldine Flynn, what we would like to hear from you is a good old-fashioned Indian war whoop. You should know how, after being among us a complete year. Lester Chapin, we heard the other day that you wanted to be an aviator. If you are serious in this ambitlon, you'd better avoid arranging meetings at the school-house with Mildred Wood. Aviation is a stiff course, and there is little time for diversions like that Doris Garlock, you have done wonderful things for yourself these past months. But we doubt that all that reducing has been solely for your own personal satisfaction. Can it be for that gentleman from Union Springs? Lois Myers, you are a good actress. From your daily ,aversion to the boys in school one would never dream that vou and Sid Curtis 'EHcs A are such very good fr1ends.And, oh Lois, that one night affair with a young Junior boy! Margaret Dickinson, we wonder where you go on those nights you go to Auburn.Hm, three times a week. Could it be that Bob is taking up your precious time? Russell Chapin, whenever a new girl comes into school, don't be so anxious to meet her. We are afra1d,Razzle, you fall short of Emily Post's dlcta on meeting young ladies. Rita Shaw, we think you should drop your boy-friends from Holy Family High School. You know Confucius say:WHoly Family boys teach un holy tricks to little crickets like you.' Tom Costello, one girl is enough for one night. We think three is carrying it just a little too far..And also, when swimming, just be sure you lock up your clothes, especially when there's a candid camera fan in the group Jerry Chamberlain, you of Sherwood,we suggest that nice girl who is fancy-free you with a car all your own Soothing Songbird you pick out some . A nice guy like should not have a bit of trouble-especially if you sing to the young lady. Muriel Bishop, for a dignified Sen1or,we are sure that you are leaning far too much on a certain nPost'. Yes, Muriel, we know that you like to attend Guild Meetings, but do you have to stay across the road from Posts to at tend them? Eleanor Joslyn, you must learn not to hide your face. You get few chances during your life-time to have your picture taken on top of the Empire State Building. Next time just stick your neck out a little further so that the camera can catch lt. Charles Hickey, though Ruth Thorn's dark, chestnut hair takes your heart, remember it belongs back home. Remember that there are more where she comes from. Mildred Baker, we advise you to choose someone nearer your own age.We know it gives you a comfortable feeling to know he wo be caught in the draft, but you ought to have enough sporting blood to take a chance on a young man. Leon Brewster, we want you to leave the members of the younger generation alone. If the fellows fathers trust them with the car, it ought not to be necessary for you to es- cort them home. 'Lin . gnu Francis McGarry, we thought you werea one-girl fellow until this year. After that New York trip we began to wonder. Well, 'out of sight, out of m1nd,' we suppose. From your successors, dear Seniors, BON VOYAGE, and lots of good luck!

anim We, the Senior Class of 1941, feel that lt is our duty to leave, to the Juniors, a few bite of sound advice, in order that they may more ably fill the positions from which we step. Thomas Powers, you should prepare to accept the great responsibilities that sre,no doubt, to be placed on your shoulders. We advise you to follow your basketball training rules bet- ter than you have in the past: this will get you in shape for executive positions, as well as for upholding your fame as a basket-ball star. Gerald Beebee, you should mix a little more in social life. Don't be afraid to talk. If you follow this advice you should have, in no time at all, a lovely young companion to ac- company you when you take those frequent,long drives in your car. Vincent Cahalan, we advise you to cultivate your voice. After your supreme success in the operetta WThe Mikadon, we expected you to ac- complish great things in this field. You have disappointed us during the last two years,but we feel confident that you have it in you. We expect you to bring fame to Sherwood. George Casler, you present a grave problem to us. We advise you to refrain from taking any more science. This year of biology seems to be having strange effects on you. After a little rest and quiet this summer you may be normal once more and able to resume your work 'EHcs A at Sherwood. Evelyn Van Lieu, we advise you to make a trip to a G.L.F. store ply of G.L.F. Fleshing you need to do this to uoue year ahead of you. vice, we feel that you of your class. and lay in a good sup- Pellete. We feel that prepare for the stren- If you follow our ad could compete with any Virginia Heath, we are really concerned about youg you must settle down and be a lit- tle more serious and dignified. Take pity on Miss Beck. Let her see that the Homemaklng Course has benefited you.We expect you to be- come as studious as Lois Myers. Bradley Mitchell, the seniors are really quite elated over your prospects as a Senior. We commend you for your scholarship, for your participation in sports,and for your interest inuschool activities. Our advice is nKeep it up . hilce Colley, we want you to be sure to keep ln mind that Sherwoods your Alma Mater. Don't let the boyirlends from King Ferry im- press you so much that you cheer for the wrong school. We advise you to get your boy- friends in this vicinity or keep Sherwood in mind-otherwise you'll be classed as a trait- or. R e Dale Sullivan, we advise you to stop ag- gravating your teachergyour marks are likely to go down. We think that the best thing for you to do is to organize a debating club.Af- ter that Wilkie-Roosevelt debate we rest as- sured that you will become famed in that field-if you follow our advice. Irene Jacobs, we advise you to reduce the number of dates and boy-friends. It might be wise for you to take one year of Homemaklng before you leave school. We feel that you will be needing it. bo enroll in Miss Beck's class the first day of the new school year. Louis Shaw, we advise you to concentrate on basketball next year. You should be pre- pared to take the place of one of our worthy senior players who is leaving. Mr. Maddaloni is depending on you! Ruth Powers, you should get in a little earlier nights. Dances do last Wil 1:00 A.M. but what do you do all of the rest of the time? Just because his name is 'Parker' you don't have to -- well. Barbara Richardson, we advise you to ln- slst on V1nce's getting at least a couple of spare tires. Really, it is terrible to be stranded at such late hours with a flat. Raymond Drake, we can understand your pre- dicament in being so popular with the girls, but we advise you to walt until your senior year is finished before indulging in such a round of gaiety. Like Tom, you, too, should obey training rules. Everett Allen, you should not think of Rival Dog Food, but rather Rival Wally Duck. Haven't you noticed Marie and Wally in those little tete-a-tetes? Margaret Nolan, you should cultivate your voice, so as to be soprano soloist in 'Shy' Sh1eld's Orchestra. e advise you to begin studying music right away. Margaret Ann Dougherty, we advise you to give up a few of the boyfriends and Margaret Ann, don't attend another Pol1ceman's Ball. Really-- Billy Nolan, we advise you to quit rais- ing Cain in Homeroomg settle down a little. You distract the teachers until ---- well, the situtation is serious. David Nolan, you seem to be always pick- ing on the g1rls.We advise you to leave them alone and concentrate on filling Chas. Hurl- but's shoes as Basketball manager.These lit- tle men seem to succeed at this position. Thus end our words of wisdom. Please don't be offended at anything we've said. We only hope that it has been beneficial to you, so that your class will be second to only one- the Class of 1941.
