The Snyder signal. (Snyder, Tex.) 1887-????, 1920-06-11

Lois Sears, who always delight
ed the school and town with her de-
lightful readings After special pre-
paratory courses at Belmont and the
State University. took up her work
as an expression teacher. With her
talents and efforts, she couldn't help
but make good, and she is now teach
ing at Simmons. To hear her read
selections from James Whitcomb
Riley or any other popular writer, is
delight to both young and old.
We all knew that 1t was in Wray-
mond Sims, our class president, to
be a lawyer as he was such a force
full and convincing speaker, and, l
might add, quite a bit OF ability TO
change things around and tell them
to suit the occasion. He is one OF
our foremost lawyers and is almost
capable of making his client believe
himself innocent even when he knows
himslef guilty He has made spec
ialty of defending wealthy ladies in
divorce suits So, ladies, II you need
any assistance along that line call on
Judge w. ID. Sims of Abilene. He is
making serious consideration OF
entering the gubernatorial race as
soon as his age will permit and II he
dies. there is no question as to VINO
will win the race-his strongest OPP
ponent, of course.
When | think of Loree Stokes, /
recall a little incident that happened
in the history class in the fall OF
1919. Some one flashed a mirror
| in the sun and caused reflection
on the wall which mysteriouslydanc-
ed around and disturbed the class.
The teacher saw 1t and when no one
would own up to being guilty she
gave orders for the whole class to
stay in after school. Perhaps ! should
not make light of such a serious sub
iect as a bad memory, but the strang-
est thing about It was that the afore-
said whole class forgot to stay in.
Well in the history class next day
there was a regular court and at the
end. Lore came forward, extended
feigned seriousness and trembling
voice confessed Ter sins.
Perhaps that was one of many
confessions and perhaps ii was the
only one she ever made, but however
that maybe. Loree is now a foreign
missionary. She has married a Meth
odist minister and together they are
doing great work in foreign fields
They say that curiosity killed
cat but II that is so 1t only goes to
prove that Agnes Teter is no cat
For her unlimited curiosity led her to
TT herself for the office OF county
clerk. Her efficiency has been prov
edbv her recent reelection to that
office and she Is consequently the
first one to know who is going TO
marry next.
Mabel Teter, after taking a cor
respondence course in millinery mas
connected herself with one OF the
leading dry goods firms in the pro-
gressive city OF Snyder. So efficient
Is her service that. 1t is said. she
is prepared 10 make your lid while
YOU wait. You may have to wait
quite while though.
virgia Thompson decided she new
or could hear the trials OF school
teacher knowing so we'll towhat they
we're subjected, finished her course
in shorthand and is now reporter Tor
one OF the leading dailies OF Texas.
Wayne Williams, the youngest
n, smber OF the class, after brill
liant university course at the The
state, buried himself among his
books on his fathers ranch. Az long
as ne had something TO read, the
world was not bothered win MN
Bat suddenly when oil VIC, discover
ell Ut the rancl, he begin to ap-
pcir 1T all tirr-s and all places. In
fact his popularity knew no bounds
and ro more 90 )ks and solitude for
Wayne He was riding in his air
T. ar.t some time ago and f.H. Good
rews. EN-? Well he landed on his
bead and 1t didn't hurt him enl he is
nov off or a tour of European bat
tie grounds. Who knows hut that
he will bring back French wife
as q souvenir?
Mable Wilson, who always mis-
RELIED three words out Of every two

a very useful stenographer for the
firm of Dobbs & Company of Dallas.
