A Mineral Ridge Senior Class Prophecy It was a bright, sunshiny day in August, 1950, when we landed in Paris on the first lap of our journey around the world. We were walking along the crowded thor- oughfare of Lafayette Avenue when we bump- ed into a policeman. Upon looking the second time it proved to be our old friend, Russell Lewis. After chatting awhile and discussing old times he told us we would find our class- mate, Fred Chittock at the airdrome. We boarded an omnibus for the air-field. When we got there we found that Fred was one of the leading aviator's of France. Jrourneying on we arrived in Germany. That evening we went to the opera and whom should we- see, but Gladys White, whp was delightfully entertaining the audience with her melodious voice. Leaving this country, we journeyed to Venice, Italy. The first place we went was to one of the famous sculptor's studios. On entering the studio we were delightfully sur- prised to see professor Shook who was modell- ing the bust of the Prince of Wales. After leaving Professor Shook, we went to the American Consulate. There We were re- ceived by the wife of the Consul who proved to be Ruth Williamson. She was gaining much prominence as a public speaker and charity worker. As our sojourn in Europe. was over, we boarded the Columbia for America. 'On ar- riving in New York we went to visit the city schools. On talking to the superintendent of schools, to our amazement we learned he was our old school mate Donald Rudge. ,J After spending a few days in New York we returned to our homes where we assumed our duties as a beauty culturist, and accountant.

Newton Falls i DOJ Glee Clubs 1928-1929 The Newton High Glee Club have a large membership this year. The boys' Glee Club is now at its height having a membership of sixty-three. The Girls' Glee Club is slightly smaller, totaling sixty-one members. The Glee Clubs present varied types of pro- grams, arranged to please the most widely as- sorted audiences. They range from humorous to spiritual songs, from solos to the unison chorus, singing of one hundred twenty-four voices. Vfithin its ranks it includes several very capable soloists, an excellent quartet and a pleasing select group. The Glee Clubs appear frequently through- out the year in assembly, in Parent-Teacher meetings, and once each year they present an operetta, which up to the present has been more than successful and has even greater expectations for the future. This year's oper- etta will be Miss Cherryblossomf' a delight- ful Japanese musical. There is an added incentive for every mem- ber to do his best because honest effort to im- prove the music of Newton High is rewarded by a beautiful pin. For loyalty and good work a silver pin is awardedg for long service and good work, a gold pin, and exceptional work in addition to real talent receives a gold pin set with a pearl. g The Glee Clubs are above average this year. They are daily improving under the very able leadership of Miss Nelle Davis, our eiiicient and accomplished music instructor.
