At thif most eventful time, when our thoughts are saddened because we must part from our schoolmates, it is yet a distinct pleasure to review what have been profitable and happy years. Therefore we wish to take this time to thank the many people who have directly and indirectly contributed to our class to make its success. Now that the events of this class have become past history, it is fitting that this record should close as each schoolmate wishes the other the ample fulfillment of every promise of these school years.

This famous and popular product first came into existence in the year 1940 in the town of Wiflson, New York.
