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.

O l Dehcatessen HAM AND EGGS Ham and eggs, the typical American dishl Every true American is acquainted with that wonderful combination. Every .country has a dish of its very own, a dish for which it is noted, for instance, the minute you speak of Italy, you see a heaping dish of spaghetti, everyone knows how fond all Germans are of sauerkraut, and pictures of Spain always bring to one's mind chili con carne or hot tamales. And with the Ameri- cans it is ham and eggsl Every foreign restaurant specializing in American dishes always feature ham and eggs because they know how fond we are of them. But can you imagine the one without the other? Can you imagine setting down before a plate of ham minus the eggs or vice versa? It is too horrible even to think ofl What could be more perfect than to wake up in the morning with the odor of ham sizzling in the frying pan and the knowledge that in a few minutes you will sit down to a breakfast fit for a king. FRANCES DWYER, '28, DISCARDED SPEARMINT VVhat becomes of chewed gum? VVell, if it was the non-parkable kind that was invented in the newspaper not so long ago, this problem would not be quite so hard to solve. VVith this nonparkable kind as soon as it was thrown away it turned into a vapor and immediately disappeared. VVouldn't that be wonderful, though, if we had nonparkable chewing gum in school? If you were enjoying a good chew during class and you heard a stern voice, Are you chewing gumln, you could quickly slip it out of your mouth and away it would go. You could reply, uNo, Sister, and there would be no time to be made up after school. But as we are not so fortunate as to have this kind of chewing gum we will have to find out what becomes of the other kind when we are through with it. The first, and most convenient way of getting rid of it, is by throwing it into the Ere. In this way it is melted almost instantly and goes up the chimney in fumes. Another way would be to throw it out the window on to some soft ground. If it rains, the gum will he pushed down and down until it is Hnally buried in the dirt. If it doesn't rain immediately, the birds might be looking for something to put in their nests to make it nice and soft and they would pick it up and probably cover it up with grass, and they would have a nice soft nest for their young birds. Chewed gum can be, and very often it, thrown in the street. A machine will come along, run over it and carry it along on its tire. It is run over so many times that it becomes very flat and, in the course of time, is made a part of the tire. This is a pretty good way of fixing blow-outs. After this we will try to throw all our gum out in the street and thus be a help to people walking on the walk. By throwing it in the street it gets on the tires and keeps it off of people's shoes. Gum can also be used for mending purposes in place of glue. Many times an old chair or any old furniture can be more easily mended by means of chewing gum than glue. Now, I think I have enumerated enough ways to get rid of chewing gum that in the future we will know what becomes of it. IAIELEN HALEY, '28, 108
