King CLASS OF ’46 LEAVES GIFT Each year the graduating class leaves behind a remembrance, something beautiful or useful, appreciated by every department of the school. This year’s class has chosen a mimeograph to replace the warnout one, given by the Class of 1936. The new memeograph is an expensive one and much credit must be given to the business management of the Hi-Lites, of the Magazine Subscription Drive, and of the Class Play, as well as to the members of the senior class for their initiative and energy in raising money to pay for it. May those who use this machine be occasionally reminded of those who gave it. Senior Class of 1946 FRANK T. ARMBRUSTER -BETTY BAUER ROBERT M. BLAND' HARLEY R. CARTWRIGHT JR.

+ Don’t overlook the advantage of the finer I A MON D It’s a mistake to let such things as size and price influence your choice of her diamond. Brilliance is what really counts. And brilliance depends upon the quality of the diamond. There is a much greater difference in the quality of diamonds than is generally realized. That’s why we suggest that you drop in for a talk about diamonds before you step out to buy. There’s no obligation. Come in any time at your convenience.
