that the physics class, that in
which the brilliancy of Homes
dale High school has reached the
eliminating point, should meet
in the south class room. We I:
adjourned thither fully expect
ing that we would be allowed
to expound some theory that had
been figured out two thousand
years before, or, if luck were
uncommonly favorable, to do a
little janitor work in the labora-
tory. But no such luck, for in
less than half an hour it was
made known to us that all who
wished might go on a tour of
inspection to the Office of The
Citizen, where but a few weeks
previous a new Linotype ma
chine had been installed. We
agreed to go even though by so
doing we were not exempted
from any study. Arriving at
our destination we were cordial
ly greeted by the editor who ex-
planned in detail every part of
the wonderful machine. After
pleasant and profitable time we
were about to start for home
when one of the employees pre-
sented to each of us copy of
that days publication. AS it
was late when / left the Office
placed the paper in my pocket
without examining it. Arriving
home l was about to persue it's
columns when my eye fell upon
the heading, what was my sur
prise to dis, but by the way
| have the paper here, this is
what l read: The Citizen, Wayne
County's Organ of the Repub-
lican Party, weekly founded
1914, semi-weekly founded in
1908, daily founded 1920, SD
year, Honesdale, Wayne County,
Pa, Wednesday, June IS, 1925.
l was of course greatly surpris-
ed, but Immediately became so
intensely interested in the con-
tents that the question of the
date was entirely forgotten.
The first item that fell under
my gaze was this: The Glass of
1925 conducted their class night
exercises in the auditorium of
the McGraw building; the dona-
tion of the late Miss Susie Nc
Graw, who passed away about
two years ago. The exercises
were complete success and
were eclipsed, in our estimation,
only by those of the class of
1909, whose praises are still
sung. The class was trained
by Miss Abigail Baird, who for
the past five years has been an
instructor in elocution. Turn
ing from this | discovered in a
rather conspicuous position some
ads. to this effect: Your fortune
told free. All matters of love,
business, marriage, and health
explained. Office hours 10 a.

building. The reading of gen.
tlemen's palms specially.
Miss Clara Nj. Saunders, Palmist

Partisan teacher, with pleasant
method, who has studied French
for almost one whole year.
Miss Laura Van Horne, East
Extension st. Manicuring done

Hazel Dein.
Fearing ads. though interest
ing may become monotonous, l
will with your permission in
spect the Home Topics: Miss
Faith Clark recently attended
the 18th annual alumni Of Vas
sar College. Miss Clark was
graduated from Honesdale
High School in 1909, from Vas
sar with the class of 1913, and
for the past ten years has been
local manager of the Boston
Baked Bean Company.
Miss Flossy Policy has accept
ed a position as chief operator
in the Honesdale office of the
Bell Telephone Company. This
is one OF the most progressive
companies in this state ana now
serves about 5000 subscribers.
II the progress of a community
is to be measured by its aoop-
tion of the most modern con-
Veniences, Honesdale is certain
ly getting ahead. We hope Miss
Policy will be successful in her
new situation. Miss Helen
Beck has signed a contract to
sing in the Metropolitan Opera
House of New York City. Miss
Beck is very proficient in her
chosen profession and we wish
her continued success.
Among the buildings recently
constructed in Honesdale are two
tenements owned by Miss Alice
Turnburger. For a number of
years Miss Turnburger has been
in the real estate business and
owns seven large tenements be-
sides her own magnificent resi-
dence on Church street.
