ECHOES OF 1935 GIFTATORY BETTY KOPKE MARY HEATH BRAINARD We, in a way, consider it unfortunate that Jeanne Allen is so peaceful and quiet. We shall furnish her with a teter board to thoroughly acquaint her with the ups and downs of life. Most people have had trouble in distinguishing Don and Ron Filter. It might be disasterous if the girls should do this, so we feel that a blue bow for Edna Brees and a pink bow for Elisabeth Anderson will take care of that difficulty. Violent tempers should be pacified. Harold Anderson might find this pacifier useful in the future. Sun rays often play havoc with dazzling blondes. We feel that this sun shade would serve a good purpose for Lillian Auten. The workman deserves the best of tools. We feel sure that such an able cook as Leona Avery deserves the best of measuring cups obtainable. Good Luck Leona! We are told that many people are sceptical as to whether Loren Avery ' s car should continue to function. We hope to avoid such an accident by giving him this new car so that he shall be prepared tor any emergency. Emily Schreder and Dorothy Babcock are very proficient at making faces but to conserve tneir energy for better things we are presenting them with an extra face. For Mary Bell, we have provided an alphabet in order that she may become familiar with other letters than A ' s. One member of our class is noted for his fluent oratory. So for Donald Bene- dict, we have an hour glass that his words might be measured. Judging by his excellent work in Speech Class, we believe that Theodore Brooks will find much use for this book on Parliamentry Rules. To Knowlton Brown we present this sneeze muffler which may relieve his em- barrassment in the future. Believing an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, we have provided a curling iron for Frederick Bryan just in case his hair should refuse to curl. Since Mary Heath Brainard has done such splendid work in oratorical work I believe this map of the United States will help Mary find her way around while she is on those oratical tours. For Frederick Buchheimer we have a sparking machine. Use it in the way you think best, Fred. We believe in preparedness therefor we are presenting James Buck with this miniature pillow so that he may always sleep in comfort. We have inquired into the ambition of some of our class mates. Virginia Conklin wishes to be a nurse. Every one knows that every nurse needs a thermome- ter so we are sure Virginia will value and cherish our gift of this thermometer. Gerald Craig has an extraordinary ambition — that of retaining his youthful- ness. Such an ambition has never been realized. We shall present Gerald with a bottle of water from the Fountain of Youth, so that he may be the first to be for- ever young. Twenty three

ECHOES OF 1935 SALUTATORY By BETTY LINGER Members of the School Board, Parents, Teachers and Friends: Another June has arrived and it is again time tor a graduating class to depart from Tecumseh High School. Tonight marks a new era in the lives of fifty-eight young men and women, and we welcome the opportunity to extend cordial greet- ings to each of you who have come to this great event. Hitherto, our ships have sailed on a narrow and sheltered stream. Our lives for the most part have been quiet and calm because of the efforts of our parents and teachers to make them pleasant. We owe our sincere gratitude to them, for they have sacrificed at all times in order that our lives might be tranquil and happy ones. Often on this short voyage, we have been tempted to permit our fragile little ships to drift idly along the way with no apparent goal ahead, but we have been guided safely onward by our parents and teachers. They have taught us that our aim determines our true worth, and that we cannot rise higher than our aim. They warned us against the dangerous sand bars and rocks on which our ships might have been wrecked had we not aspired to something higher and more worth- while. Tonight, we, the class of 1935, are going to christen a new ship and are going to set sail on a vast and unknown sea — the world. There have been failures in the lives of each of us, but this one success which we are enjoying tonight gives us re- newed hope, and so we venture forth seeking new worlds to conquer. Each of us will aim to do this with a greater degree of success than he has attained in his high school education. Each of us will strive to guide his ship in the direction which he most desires, and although by the time we anchor we may be separated by many miles, still our purpose is the same. Even if we do not reach our goal nothing will be lost if we have given our very best. What I aspire to be, And was not, comforts me. Before departing from Tecumseh High School, we glance backward at the things we have accomplished and look into the future to the things we shall do. We shall be confronted with many hardships and difficulties; our ships may be tossed many miles from their course, but we shall quide them safely back to their original route with great skill and care, because we know that somewhere in the sea of life there is success and that we must not anchor until we have attained that goal. A winner never quits, and a quitter never wins. As we pause for a brief time before launching our ships on this unknown ocean, I welcome the opportunity to wish you, dear classsmates, success and happi- ness. To our parents and teachers who have guided us so safely to this goal and who have prepared us so diligently for the future, I wish to offer thanks from the bottom of my heart. I hope you w ill consider your time well spent and I hope that you will feel through both words and actions my sincere gratitude. And to you, dear friends, who have also contributed a large part toward our success — to each and everyone of you, I bid you a most hearty welcome. Twenty-two

ECHOES OF 1935 It is not yet known but Clara Eyler wishes to be a school teacher. We hope that this ruler will be of much use in the future, Clara. Donald Cook has shown such an aptitude toward agriculture that we felt that he should be encouraged along that line. So we have for Donald a tractor as a start toward his equipment for this vocation. There are two members of our class whose stature makes it rather difficult for them to make much headway. In order to remedy this we have provided a pair of stilts for Clover Guy, and Imogene Crittenden in order that they may make great strides in the future. William Damon is a talented violinist and that he may have what every violinist needs, we are presenting him with this bit of rosin. Smile and the world smiles with you. is the motto of Robert Erlenbush and a very good one it is. But at times the very brilliance seems to blind one. Therefore we feel that an umbrella which would dim the brilliance of his smile would be very appropriate. Edna Graham is noted for her popularity and for her we have provided a magnet to use in case her magnetism fails. To not have an ambition is a serious thing. After reviewing all signs we have decided that the role of a truck driver would be especially suitable for William Feight. This book of rules and instructions will help you, Bill, especially notice the one on taking the curves. One of our classmates has an excellent store of knowledge, yet as we under- stand things there is always room for more, so we have provided an Encyclopedia for Julia Freer to add to her store of knowledge. Melvin Greenwold says all he lacks is pep. That was easy — here it is. Melvin. For Betty Ann Hall we have provided her favorite song, Show Me the Way to Go Home. Henry Hamilton ' s greatest desire, as we understand, is for speed. To endulge in that desire for speed, we have chosen a Blue-Bird for Henry. As Joyce Harriot ' s hobby is collecting baseball pictures, we feel that this picture of The Tigers will be acceptable. For Frank Harris, we have a badge, as a Dicks emblem of success. We believe that perseverance should be rewarded and that a medal for William Hastings would be the suitable reward for his outstanding work as laboratory di- rector in Physics. To be the only boy on the honor roll is a great accomplishment as John Heeson will testify. We hope that this candle will aid him to continue to be a bright shining light. There are many members of our class who drive cars, but the expert is Sarah Jane Heilman and for that reason we have procured a chauffeur ' s license — whether she uses it or not remains to be seen. Iris Jones says she likes to argue and that she always likes to win. In order that she may do so we have provided Hints For Argufiers. That girl who always has a smile, accurately describes Betty Kopke. In order that nothing shall ever change the description of Betty ' s face, I have selected this joke book that she may always have something to laugh at. Twenty-Four
