HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING jforeworb In presenting the third volume of the Clintonia, we put forth a book managed entirely by the Senior Class, a souvenir of events of C. H. S. during the year of 1917-18. While it is fundamentally the work of the Class of 1918, its object is not for the glory or fame of o.ir class, but for the greater honor and glory of our High School. Through the medium of drawings and pictures wc have endeavored to bring back to the mind, many of the good by-gone days; as Briggs would say, “The days of real sport.” We hope then in presenting this volume that our object has been attained and that it will be a friend wherein you may lighten many a dnary hour. —The Staff.
