14 Snxioia Cmss Boon 'tThe I'ica,yune has attained is due in a great measure to the repre- sentatives of our class who worked on it, and also to the loyal sup- port. of the class itself. Our fourth year has seen the establishment of a new organization, the Literary Society. -We directly helped in making this new venture a. success. Then too, our newly-established musical oi-gani.zations, the glee clubs and orchestra have -all called for a show of our interest and support, which we have cheerfully given in unstinted measure. This year as well as in former years, we have watched the boys of our class win fame in athletics. The glorious records which have been established in all branches of sport, have been due in some part to our loyal support. Then on that memorable Arbor Day we maintained the traditions of the school and planted the class tree. Then last but not least, we were ena-bled to aid in scoring a brilliant artistic success in the High School play. June, 1914, has a record-breaking class in size, has shown evi- dence of intellectual as well as social and athletic ability. It has been due to our direct eiforts. That debating has been established on so firm a. basis and the high scholarship attained is very gratifying. V After a few more glorious times-, 1914 will pass out of the im- mediate life of the school, and will be only a memory. And now let us turn and look out again into the future which lies in waiting, close-folded and hidden in beautiful mists. The real test of our metal is at hand, and our coming successes will reflect upon our Alma Mater. Let us enter upon our new life with Kfor- ward face and unreluctant soul,'7 a.nd directing our endeavors toward the worth-while things in life, with the determination. to make the future history of the Class of 1914 more brilliant, richer insuccess than ever its past has been.
