SCENE V: AT DISMISSAL IN THE HALL jackie: fmuch disgustedl I just came from 1ny stenography class and was it hard! Agatha-Ann: Now you've got me mixed up. vvllklf on earth is stenog- what is it you said? jackie: Stenography or shorthand. lt's just a quick and shorter way of writing. Of course sometimes it's just a way of writing that you can't read back. Agatha-Ann: Things have certainly changed,in one hundred years. I'm sure you can't appreciate this wonderful school as much as I do because you are so used to it. Wlhen I think of my school as compared to this one, I'm at a loss for words. Here you have a large building surrounded by trees, grass, and shrubbery. Each class has a separate room except, of course, the seniors in the auditorium. How grand it is for each pupil to have a desk and slate to herself! Jackie: finterruibtingj I guess you haven't seen the rooms where there are twenty more girls than seats, but on the whole, that's true. Agatha-Ann: fslowlyj I inspected one room while you were in class and I noticed some sayings on the desks-'In memory of those who died waiting for the bell to ring,' 'In case of Ere, jump in,' and 'To pass an examination without studying, go to the infirmaryf jackie: fquicklyj And of course there are those who insist on carving their names and those of their boy friends all over the desk. Agatha-Ann: I still have a vivid picture of my school in mind-a red schoolhouse, about thirty feet square, six small windows, usually broken because of the rough games the boys played. Jackie: I've seen pictures just like your school in magazines and books. Wlmat was the inside like? Agatha-Ann: Inside were rows of benches made of oak, scholars sat ac- cording to their grade. Shelves were our only places to keep the school's equipment. In winter we sought refuge from the cold by sitting as close to the stove as possible. The walls were bare and looked so gloomy! fsighingl How very fortunate you are, Jackie. Jackie: fafter a momenfs thoughtj I suppose that's how I really have felt all along, but I just couldn't Hnd the right words to express it. I know I shall have a great many pleasant memories to take away with my graduation. Good-bye, Agatha-Ann, it's been a pleasure showing you around. - Agatha-Ann: Good-bye, jackie, I'll always remember this wonderful episode. Good luck! EMILIIZ BRUSKO, RUTH SHAIKIN
