CLASS NIGHT EXERCISES
UNUSUAL AND ORIGINAL
Prophecies High Spot OF The Eve
ming

The most unusual and original
class night exercises in recent years
we're held last night in the Junior
Senior High School Auditorium
when the Senior Glass put on view
their annual concoction of mirth,
music, and mimic. The class was
aided greatly in the success of the
evening by the orchestra under the
direction of William Miller.
The high spot of the evening,
from the audience reaction. was the
series of prophecies arranged in
playlet form by Fay Ferguson and
Theodore Townsend. In these sket-
ches the pupils portray themselves
twenty years hence. The first sketch
had as its locale the city Of Balti-
more in 1855 and the second the
city of Milford with the newly Gre
ated Court of Domestic Relations.
The friendly, good natured presenta-
tiOn of the future was interesting
and amusing, especially when Mar
garet Brennerman accused her hus-
band, Burton Colt, of striking her
because she peeled the socks and
darned the potatoes"
The faculty take-Offs caused much
comment especially by the pupils of
the school and the faculty, who we're
to see themselves as others
see them. Following was the pro-
gram of the exercises:

there's one thing about this engineer
that explains his good record better
than anything else. He believes in
signs. All along the way there are
signals that tell him what 10 do, and
he does exactly what they say. When
a semaphore says slow down, he
slowed down. Whenever he gets the
sign Of a curce or grade. he adjusts
his speed accordingly. Every red and
green and amber light that comes
winking through the darkness means
a definite order that he'd never
dream Of ignoring. And when q flare
warns him OF danger, he just stops
until he gets the go-ahead Now.

May the Republican State of

his speech. The Oklahoma Democrat
he referred to was Representative
