4 THE T I «; E K Another scene revealed a slender young lady. She was working in a college laboratory on the cure of cancer. The operator turned around, and I recognized her as an old school friend. Virginia McCormick. I again turned the reel and I saw Helen Overman, an artist, in a beauty shop getting a permanent wave. The beauty specialist turned to ask me what I wanted and I saw that she was Margaret Jones. The Scene was in a large library in Chicago. Whom did I see hut Helen Franklin and Isabel Montgomery! I had always thought that their two years' experience as librarians in dear old W’averly High would lead them toward something bigger and better. A room in an art school next appeared. Margaret McDowell and Hallie Ware were students there. At the sight of Margaret, my thought drifted hack to the drawing which she had made for our Junior-Senior banc|uet in 1931, which so beautifully decorated the dining rooms of the cafeteria. rite next scene was that of a church wedding. Bernard Way was answering, I do,” which was the result of a romance beginning in his senior year at W. H. S. Rev. Arnold Murray “tied the knot . Again. I turned the reel. Ralph F.mmitt was making a campaign speech at Columbus, announcing his candidacy for Governor of Ohio. In the audience I saw Paul Streitenberger, Guy I .eat her wood, and Burnice Crabtree, all classmates of mine and prominent farmers of Waverlv. The next scene revealed the business section of Waverlv. Rol ert Taylor was a prominent hanker, while I.eon Ratcliff held a responsible office as Sheriff of Pike County, Virginia Lee Hamilton was editor of The Waverly Morning Sun”. The next picture was that of good old Waverly High. In the music room, I saw Prof. Harold Brown directing his music class. Back on the huge gym floor was Coach Adrian Crabtree showing his basketball team how to drop the hall in the basket. I saw another school scene (I do not remember the town) Kmma Wipert held the responsible position as Supt. of Schools, and Marie Robinson was coaching a group of girls in basketball. I was becoming tired turning the reel. Surely there couldn't he many more scenes, hut the very next picture showed the resemblance of myself as I was staged in a play given in Dayton. The last, hut not the least, was a picture of the exterior of W. H. S. building. Wonders had been done! The word improvement spoke from every corner. Another story had been added making the school three stories high. Good old prosperous Waverly. All at once 1 heard my name called. I looked up and there stood my mother. She came to tell me that it was time for me to meet the Sand Man”. I must have been asleep! What I told you must have been a dream. The aged man and the “Visionary have vanished. The night is slowly stealing away. The flames of the fire are burning low, hut the memories of my classmates of 1932 will live forever. —Marie Osborne. Twenty-three
