15 ARLINGTON ANNUAL HISTORY OF UPPER ARLINGTON SCHOOL In the fall of 1916 the village of Upper Arlington had grown so much that a school was needed. The village employed a teacher and a school was started in Mr. King I hompson s basement. Only the first three grades were there. By the spring of 1917 the village was quite a bit larger. Up to this time all the children who did not go to our school went to Grandview. The school board was organized and a temporary school was built at the corner of Tre-mont and Arlington Avenues. It contained the first nine grades with three teachers in charge of three rooms and an assembly room. At the end of that year there were about fifty-five pupils enrolled in the school. I hat summer the school was moved again to Waltham Road near Devon. Six rooms and a gymnasium were added to the old school. This May will be the end of the fourth year it has been occupied. Near our present school a new school building is in the process of construction. HIGH SCHOOL PROPHECY (Continued from page 13) That Frances Sayers is Fannie, the bareback rider of Barnum and Goggle circus. That Cornelia Shaw is billed on Broadway with Alfred Amato. That Mary K. Kern is a taxi-driver for the Red Top Cabs. That Edmund Dwyer is running an exclusive men’s beauty shop. That Eleanor Harrop is the Smoking Idol’’ of a first-class Cuban Cabaret. That Mr. Jackson had broken all records for endurance dancing. That Mis9 Huit, although now a grandmother, is still Griffith's leading star. That Miss Irwin is an expert at tossing flap-jacks at a Mills restaurant. That Mr. Jones is the traffic cop at Broad and High Streets. Then strange faces came into the globe and 1 could see no more of my companions’ faces. As time was fleeting fast I took my departure, happy to know what my school friends of Upper Arlington would be in the future.
