Now I'm Going Back
To High School!
When I saw lights burning in the
High School auditorium last night,
I looked in to see what went on.
About twenty people were listen
ing to Buzz Ellis, the electrician,
talk about television.
I slipped into a back seat and
asked Hap Thomas what was up.
Hap told me it was the new Self
Improvement Club. I stayed to lis
ten and learned a lot. Bmz really
knows his stuff.
Turns out this club meets every
Friday night Each member gives
a talk on the subject he knows most
about. I joined on the spot because
learning new things is one of ruy
favorite hobbies.
From where I sit, it's willingness
to learn from the other person that
makes Americans tolerant towards
so many different viewpoints and
tastes in things. Just because Buti
E'lis goes for chocolate malteda,
while I prefer a mellow glass of
beer, doesn't mean I'm right and
he's wrong. Incidentally, next week
I'm going to talk on how to rua a
newspaper.

what knows
"Naw,l'm no distinguished aloom
nus. 1 just slipped into this disguise
to get a word in edgewise to you guyl
and gals.
"You've been listening to the hearts
and flowers all about how you are
about to cross the threshold of life. All
about the great opportunity yonder.
"But here's what they didn't tell
you. It's gonna be one aitch of a hard
row to hoe from now on.
"It's okay to tack a sheepskin on
the wall, but what really counts later
on is the green stuff, the do-re-mi. A
diploma can't be hocked for a wed
ding ring, baby shoes, or a cottage in
the country.
"And ten years from now, those are
the things that are gonna count. Take
it from a guy who knows. Class of '39.
Before most of us wised up to U.S.
Savings Bonds, worse luck.
"But that's a break made to order
for you guys and gals. Here's a real
opportunity you can sink your teeth
into. A chance to pad your future by
stashing away part of what you have
or make in U.S. Savings Bonds. And
you don't have to be a math major to
know that any deal paying you back
$4 for every $3 after ten years is worth
latching onto."
So tell the world how smart th
class of '49 is. Say it with U.S. Sav
ings Bonds.
To off alumni: Now is the time to en
rol in the Payroll Savings Plan.
