In $4,000 Trys
1t Happens Once

A special, not anticipated by
the committee, featured the
Eighth Annual Shaw High re-
union and dance at Mentor-on-
theLake Saturday, last.
A crowd of about 300 former
students braved the showers to
attend the affair. Each was
given a card to fill out for a
door prize drawing.
Shortly after 1880, Jim
Stratton and Herb Luxenberg,
dance committee co-chairmen,
stepped to the bandstand and
opened the box containing the
cards. Turning to a nearby
couple on the dance floor,
Stratton asked the young lady
to draw a card, SO as to assure
everyone an impartial selec-
ton. The lady, not looking,
reached into the box and pulled
out a card. Stratton read the
name, Una Mae Eisenhut, 1889
Prospect, Rocky River.
That's mel" exclaimed the
young lady. She had pulled her
own card, out of the box. At
the insistance of the alumni,
she was given the door prize.
The mathematical odds Of be-
ing selected to draw, and then
draw ones own card are well
over $4,000 to one.

Edwards Funeral
Home Retained
By Golden Rule

One Of the penalties Of living
in this modern age Of faster
than-sound travel is that too
many people, perhaps, try TO
get things done in hurry, re-
gardless Of the consequences.
A refreshing note Of encour-
agement, for those who con-
tinue to believe in dignity, cour-
tesy and respect -. regardless
of the age in which we live
was received today from the
Edwards Funeral Home, Inc.
For the ninth year, this dis
tinguished organization will !
continue to be a member of The
Order of the Golden Rule, an
international affiliation of de-
pendable funeral directors. This
announcement of reaffiliation
with the Order comes as the re-
suit of having met the Orders
rigid standards for continued
membership, which include the
search for new and better ways
to serve the people Of our COM
munity.
The distinction of member
ship in the Order is usually
conferred upon only one funeral
director in each community, al
though in a very few exceed
'ingly large cities, more than
one funderal director is selected.
To assist anyone, no matter
how unfamiliar he might be
with the merits of local funeral
directing organizations, mem
bers of the Order display an
identifying symbol; the Knight
and Shield emblem with its
motto, "Service Measured Not
by Gold, but by the Golden
Rule!" Individuals selecting a
member of the Order thus know,
in advance, that a funeral di-
rector offering outstanding SER
vice has been chosen.
The Order is now beginning
its thirtieth year of service to
it's members upon five Of the
six continents.

Under its policy the board

At Lakeview, one of the most

At Shaw Stadium, where en-
