(EIubb nf uJumitij-fnir We, the class of twenty-live, Arc but pioneers who strive. We came o’er sweeping prairie With a cautious step and wary Of hostile Indians, who haunt The road with warlike taunt. To challenge our way. We went on and on and o’er Rugged road and weary miles wore Past. Some came to join our band. To travel to the promising land. Tire the journey half complete Wrought with dangers yet to meet, Caine to an end. Dangers, fears, and heavy load Were not all that with us abode. Pleasures, joys, were also ours; Friendly spirit filled the hours; Love in toil .and love in work. Patience, duty, forbade us shirk That to l o done. The journey long and hard to end Has come; and you and 1, my friend Have yet to build this prairie life. With character and honest strife Into a land of ideal beauty. We shoulder now that duty To make it what we will. —T. W

THE plain of Wisdom lay far in the background, but on traveled the prairie schooner, the Class of ’25, toward the hardships and happiness of the land of Experience. As the members gathered, so they scattered—gone to parts unknown. At last in the summer of 1935, only one remained aboard. Mr. Hal-sted, the faithful sponsor, weary and worn by his journey, paused by his campfire. Memories closed the eyes of the tried traveler, while thoughts of the carelfree, happy past crowded to the present. Suddenly he sat bolt upright. From out the firelight rose a shining, silver curtain; while a queer-looking pencil came darting from space to poise itself upon the silver surface. Then as if guided by an unseen hand, it began to write slowly but without hesitation. Thus read the mystified nomad: Thyra Worthman is a great authoress. She established her fame through her biography of Thurman Wadley, an authority on electricity. This book shows an unusual amount of genius. Another of her favorite works is, “Famous Sayings of the Seniors of ’25”. The Tecumseh Beaute Shoppe business has progressed rapidly. Leona Boyer is now proprietress, capably managing her one hundred and fifty employees. She still spends a great deal of her spare time with a certain young man, who has developed what seems to be a permanent wave. Doris Townsend, contrary to all expectations, and against the wish of at least six gentlemen, became a spinster school teacher. Dorotha, the better half, after several years training under Dr. Emma Ruegnitz, succeeded her as practitioner in Vecumseh and vicinity. The universal radio favorite, Thelma Crook, has recently been winning her greatest applause by presenting, “Why Old Maids Love Cats,” by Velma Richardson, who is mourning the death of her last feline. “Little Miss Mischief,” or in other words, Gertrude Ward, having been disappointed in love, is a companion to the rich Mrs. Vanderbilt, formerly Miss Gail Mc-Auliffe, of Tecumseh. Eileen Fink eloped several years ago with her electrical engineer, of the Class of ’24. It is reported that they are living happily in South America. Marjorie Anderson, star reporter for the New York Tribune received the distinction of being the first to obtain accurate knowledge of the plans of Dorothy Evans, who just recently obtained a divorce from her sixth husband. Miss Evans announces her engagement to Ling Sang Chow, an advisor of the Chinese Emperor. After a quiet ceremony, the couple will spend a few days in Paris at the mansion of Lenora Weber, now a specialist in horticulture. They will make their home in Peking. Zola Gardner, still as dependable as in her high school days, is traveling through the United States and Europe, displaying her exceptionally well painted landcapes. It is thought that Miss Gardner will become the next candidate for the Hall of Fame. The firelight flared giving the night a ghastly hue. The pencil paused, then as
