Mary drove a ten-cent taxi for the Gordon Company. The tips she received were most liberal ones. Catherine VVagner has become the wife of the President and is busily engaged in the many social functions given in her honor. Alice Ford refereed St. Mary's games fchampionship games of coursej and proved to be the most efficient referee in the Recreation Department. Mary Loviner turned out to be a schoolmarm and was stationed at the little schoolhouse in Shadesville. Chuhhie was a mannequin at one of the most exclusive shops on Broadway. Her cleverness usually ends in a clever little sale. Mercedes moved to New York and has recently made her debut as a society debutante among the elite of the city. And last but not least Veronica, the pride of Class '28, has chosen the better part. She is now entering upon the third year of her novitiate and in two more years she will be ready to leave for the leper isle, where she has decided to sacrihce her life for others. I had now seen every one of my classmates as they really are and exhausted was glad at the suggestion of Peter to return to my place among the rest of the Cherubs and join with them in playing on their flutes and harps in rejoicing for their and my own good fortune. LEONORE REEB, '28. WE GO The time has come when we must go Away from the scenes so dearg Nevertheless they'll be with us l'Vhether welre far or near. l'Ve'll remember the old schoolhouse Wlzere we studied day by day, l'Ve'll always remember the old school bell That called us out to play. l'Ve'll newer forget the lunch room bright Wlzere we bought good things to eat, Sandwiches, candies, cakes and pies, From waitresses so neatg Kind sisters and priests and boys and girls And that certain faery best churn, lffith whom we always studied and worked ind had so very much fun. The time has come when we must go Away from these scenes so dear, Nevertheless they'll be with us Whether wa're far or near. MARCELLA BAUMBUSCH, ,28. 105 f WT 151' U 4.

the journey, but I offered my apologies and we hastened on. Soon I saw more familiar faces. Charles Kerscher turned out to be a most ardent church worker and delighted in what was always his life's ambition. Marguerite Heatherman, who always desired to be a history teacher, met a young Spanish gentleman and being deeply engrossed in him, gave up history and began a purely Spanish post-graduate course. Charles VVidmaier, who was always fond of thousand-word themes, was writing essays on the average of ten a week for the Literary Digest. Statistics show that subscriptions to the book were falling off rapidly. I expressed my desired to travel farther, and my wish was granted. St. Peter certainly proved accommodating. I had no more than entered another section of the vast region when I spied Pauline., She was being crowned Queen of May at the Annual May Day exer- cises at Vassar College. Theodore Eisenmann was heading the program at Loew's Ohio in his own conception of the musical comedy, Money, Money, Money. Madame Sullivan took great pride in displaying some of the greatest paintings in the world, especially those of Master Beckstedt, who delights in painting beau- tiful women, which may be accounted for by taking just one glimpse at his beautiful model, Miss Devine. Alvesta Miller, much to my astonishment, was a cabaret dancer. Her agility was remarkable and a source of envy to her many, many friends. Of course Theresa's fate was determined long before she left her Alma Mater. Neuhie and Theresa always were good friends and of course they mar- ried and as the old saying goes, they lived happily ever after. Paul Falter had made three successful transatlantic flights and was preparing to make his second trip around the world. Marcella Baumbusch had chosen a most delightful task. She was matron of the Girls' Reformatory in Marysville. VVilliam Miller, whom I always pictured as a future President, was busily digging the foundation for the new St. Mary's High School, and Willizlm Bierburg was as equally ambitious mixing the mortar preparatory to laying the cornerstone. Elva Inkrot was making use of her most melodious and voluminous voice, broadcasting bedtime stories-Station U O I. Helen Fischer achieved great success as an efficiency expert and was the president of the VVomen's Temperance Club. Eleanor Flavin, who always possessed the virtue of patience, brings it into play now, for she taught kindergarten, a class of fifty pupils, ranging from three to five years. Elsie Casey won innumerable medals and trophies as a bathing beauty. Helen Haley had become a missionary in far-off Japan. Marie Grundy's ability to debate and to hold her own led her to the governor- ship of Ohio, a position she is well capable of Hlling. Mary Moore, if we judge quality but not quantity, turned out to be a champion high diver. Coletta wrote for a popular magazine. You must order your book in advance now, in order to secure a copv. They sell like hot-cakes. Marie, the most popular belle of Broadway, is envied by the elite of society. Marie holds a position as secretary to the Sergeant-at-Arms. 1 104

MEMORIES OF OUR HIGH SCHOOL Saint lVlary's High School has always been for us essentially the place where we could look out on the world. Our memories of what happened inside the High School are bright beside the dim pictures of the things seen outside of its windows. I will always remember the old-fashioned walls of buildings that have stood nigh half a century. I will remember the painted and cracked windows, the splintered and worn floors. I will remember the old winding stairway in the hall of fame. There's never a Senior that will look on the old winding stairway, the painted and cracked windows, the worn floors without a sigh of Oh, how well I remember. VVe have now reached the end and we must leave the tender guidance and protection of our Alma Mater, to make room within her loving arms for those that are younger, those who need her now just as we did four years ago. We must go into the world and take with us everything that Saint lVlary's has given to us. We must fight alone against the evils of that world. We must ever keep with us our education, our religion, our strong molded character, and last but not least, our Memories of Saint lVlary's. The world may take from us all our earthly treasures, but it will never take from us those treasures that we received within the walls of Saint lVlary's High, for they are memories, No fear, no sorrow, Merzsories that will last forever, lllemories of our Old High, llfemories that shall newer Any earthly treasures buy.
