eff Lily! Ilforo' From the Sefziors It is customary for the Seniors to speak a word of farewell. and perhaps give a little advice to those who stay behind. Four years we have labored together, sharing our work, our pleasures and a few sorrows. Most of us can look back over our high school days with pride and have the thought that we have done our best. Our class, as a whole, is one which will not soon be for- gotten. NYe have entered into activities of our school zeal, doing all that was possible to keep alive file needed pep and spirit. WVe have been represented in oratory, music and athletics. And what is more important. we have a large number of honor students to prove that we have not forgotten the purpose of school. These lines from the Psalm of Life to express our sentiments: And departing, leaves behind us. Footprints on the sands of time. Footprints, that perhaps another Sailing o'er life's solemn main: A forlorn and footsore brother. Seeing shall take heart again. To those who are left to follow in our footsteps we wish the best of luck. May they strive to attain the high places, and may they succeed. Let them try to keep dear old C H. S. from sinking into the ranks of a common place school: keep her sailing proudly. triumphantly. ahead of the rest-a school to be envied and honored for her talent, her sportsman- ship, and her high ideals. 53 4 , ,,4c'f1'f ' W SY' it ,,.... 1 X ..., 5 fzafzge 1.11 Our Hzgh School in the Tas! Years No doubt the greatest change in our High School has come through the change of appearance. Recall the number of girls, when our Senior class started our career. with bobbed hair. Or just for another diversion think of the boys in long trousers. NYell. we all agree that it doesn't take much of our time. , Again, there has been a great change in our faculty. Some of the faculty that the class of '26 were first directed under. have entered into the matrimonial sea. others 'are still starting Freshmen out on their gay career. Another change we can all be proud of is the change in our school building. If only our wonderful gym had been added we would have a right to feel proud, but several new and spacious class rooms have been added, and also a hall. not so dark as the otherg for no doubt all Freshmen had the same feeling of terror as we. when we passed through its gloomv recesses. Our curriculum has also been enlarged during our high school career. Convoy has a course in its school that anv school its size can well be proud off Perhaps the best of these and the ones of most interest to the boys and girls is the manual training and home ec courses. Also there has been a change in the recreational life of the school. Four years have shown a marked increase manifested in basketball. The interest shown toward baseball and football is also increasing. The success of our teams has partially been on account of added athletics equip- ment. This year the picture shows. being introduced. have presented a new form of wholesome entertainment. Not only the intellectual side of the pupil's life is cared for. but with the introduction of Bible training in the school the spiritual side has been increased. W'ith our large gym and start toward playground equipment and our numerous' sports we have a good chance toward physical development. If the name of Convoy High School is carried on with the zeal experienced during the past four years. every graduate can well be proud of his Alma Hater. . 24
