12 PURPLE AND WHITE ECHO Class Poem Smith Academy! A stately old building- we shall always admire, Where our aims and aspirations rose ever higher. As we say good-by, we give a sigh, A wave of grief dims our eyes with tears — Dear old S. A., we go — But we shall not forget! Our years in S. A., those four short years, Will live long in memories that oft stir us to tears. The friends we have made, the games we have played, The teachers and books that have opened the door To the realm of knowledge from days of yore — Dear old S. A., we go — But we shall not forget! But now it is finished, the work and the fun, Forward we march toward new tasks to be done With courage strong, with hearts firm and steady, We go on to the work for which we are ready. Dear old S. A., we go — But we shall not forget! HELEN KACINSKI ' 43 CLASS FLOWER CLASS COLORS American Beauty Rose Maroon and White CLASS MOTTO Vision and Victory '

SMITH ACADEMY 13 Class Day Program ADDRESS OF WELCOME We, the class of 1943, bid you — our friends, parents, teachers, and classmates — a cordial welcome. In our seemingly short but pleasant journey through Smith Academy we have received the utmost of encouragement and cooperation from all of you. We are glad to have you with us tonight, which foreshadows a turning point in most of our lives. In school we have followed a straight road, which in the near future will branch into many new directions. So tonight this informal program will hold for us its share of both happiness and sorrow. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we have enjoyed preparing it for you. PAUL DICKINSON ' 43 CLASS GIFTS Mary Cybulski — To Mary we leave this roll ' ing pin. You know, Mary, it ' s very small, but it will give him the general idea. Irene Harubin — Irene, we tried to get you a load of lumber, but you know, prior- ities are priorities. So, instead, we got you a box of toothpicks. As it is, you can at least make a miniature house with them. Helen Kacinski — Helen, how can I ever face you? I know that you want to be a nurse, and I honestly instended to give you a good start by giving you some first-aid bandage. But that dumb store clerk gave me this cheesecloth for dust- ers! Please, will you forgive me? Luana Eberlein — Luana, you can keep up your writing for a long time. It ' s not my fault. That dumb clerk!!! I asked for some air mail stationery and she gave me this giant writing pad, instead. Oh well, think of quantity and not qual- ity!!! Julia Niewinski — Julie, you lucky thing. Guess what I have for you? A beach wagon!! A priceless gift! Four perfectly good tires, and no gas needed. Now you will be able to amuse yourself until that Marine comes back. Anna Burda — Ann, miracles do happen. Look what we have! A wrist watch for you. And it really goes, if you follow di- rections. Ail you have to do is let the cold water run on it, jump on it three times, and give it a vitamin pill before each meal. Jeanne Wickles — Aha,, Jeannie. Guess what? Uh-huh. It ' s a comb. This will at least make it one time less that you have to look for one. Stacia Slovikoski — Stacia, we have often heard that you want to be a secretary. Well, you know what a helpful soul I am. I was going to help you by out- fitting you in small way. Here is an eraser, a paper clip, a ruler, and a rub- ber elastic. Rubber is so scarce that I could not get more than one slimsy rubber band. Take good care of it! Dorothy Majeskey — I wanted to get you a typewriter, but you know there is a war going on. So, instead, I got you some typing paper and a pencil for the future use. Do you think you will be able to print as well? Phyllis Zembiski — I honestly didn ' t know what to get you. But, as I walked around the five-and-ten, I noticed those flags, so I thought I would ge you one. It will come in handy, won ' t it? Richard Belden — Look, Belden, what we have for you! A nice little phone and a private line, at that. It ' s much better
