While no doubt Stephens has not reached the height of its ambitions, it certainly has not striven in vain, as evidenced by its past and present success. The value of a Literary Society in the High School can scarcely be over- estimated. The conjugation of Amon and of Sprechen, the figures and formulae of mathematics, and the compositions of chemicals, may fade from our mindsg but the memories of the heated debates and lively discussions, that have taken place in Assembly Hall will never grow dim. The real value of the opportunities afforded by a first class literary society, are perhaps never fully appreciated until the student has begun the actual battle of life. Then it is that he rejoices in every golden opportunity he has embraced , While the Stephens is yet in its infancy, its progress has been such as to be a rich reward to its founders. The outlook is bright, and, strengthen by a successful past, We bespeak for Stephens Literary Society a bright and prosperous future. . C13 f' Qi? ff 'rv' MQW? W in f .

This idea, of the necessity of men being brought together in common interests, is daily gaining a firmer hold upon the race. It was this fact that led the students of the Caroline High School to organize a literary society in 1900. i . T The society was named Stephens in honor of Dr. M. Bates Stephens, State Superintendent of Public Education. Mr. Stephens,' having efficiently served this county in the capacity of County Superintendent for fourteen years, is especially dear to all students and school Workers in the county. - The aim of the Stephens Society has always been to develop oratorical abili- ties and to bring out literarytalent by urging the Writing of original essays. Among- the students of the different years, a number of first class Writers and debaters have been found. 86 1 N M 5
