Class Memory Book from 1935-1936

This little gem of a book is a School Memory Book of my Grandmother’s – Maxine Platts Morgan. In 1935, my Grandmother would have been 10 years old.  Her classmates have filled her memory book with the most hysterical sayings and endearments.  Here are a few:

“When you grow up and have some twins… Come to me for safety pins.”

“In your chain of friendship, consider me a link.”

Or my personal favorite: “When you get married and your husband gets cross.  Pick up a rolling pin and show him who’s boss.”

When rocks and rills divide us...

“Lyman, Wyo. Dec. 25, 1935  Dear Maxine, When rocks and rills divide us and you no more I see, just take a pen and pencil and drop a line to me. Your’s till the little cubs have mice, Elaine Walker
