12 D. H. s. 4 Orange and Purple 5- 1 9 Q s future holds in store for us? Tomorrow our little ships will embark upon that vast sea of Life. Some may return to harbor safely-others may be wrecked by stronger forces. If we have faithfully lived up to our motto, Labor Omnia Vincet, we may feel safe in saying that few of the little ships will be lost. If each little one is prepared to overcome the obstacles which it is bound to encounter on the sea of Life, what can change its course? We realize many will be encountered, but four years in Danville High has taught us how to overcome them. Our days in Danville High leave pleasant memories and wherever the future finds us D. H. S. will be spoken ot with reverence and honor by the members of the Class of '28. p TO THE JUNIORS: 'To you we throw the torch, Be yours to hold it high. ll, 5 fyqlla 6.1-4 ,gm 'xffif' l l lu tw

D. H. s. 4 Orange and Purple an 1 9 2 8 11 Editorial Our High School days have terminated, as is customary with grad- uation. In years to come, we 'shall recall the many incidents cxperi- enced in Danville High, and it is with regret that we leave its portals to enter into that Great Unknown that is now facing us. Perhaps. we will forget Problems in Democracy and Cicero's Orations, but the lessons of co-operation and the experiences in school activities are things that will linger with us through out the coming days. If we have played an honest and clean game during our school years, so likewise will we play the game of Life. The burdens which we have born in High School successfully, will aid us in shouldering our burdens of Life. Not only is knowledge gained from text books essential, but also the happenings in our school life which have the greatest influence in moulding our characters. We have learned the fundamental principles under your tutelage, Danville High, and now we are departing to enter into the various careers which we have chosen. As we leave Danville High, we ask the future students to make themselves worthy of their trust and stand back of it. Just remember it is your school, your paper, and your teams. The stall' has tried so hard to make this issue a success and we feel that our hopes have not been in vain. Next year, the Orange and Pur- ple will be managed under an altogether different staff. So we take this opportunity to thank everyone who has helped to make this publi- cation what it is. To one and all, we extend our best wishes and bid a fond farewell. Commencement As members of the class of '28 we begin to realize what this word means. Our first real goal in life is reached! It is a joyful thought and still it holds a touch of sadness for it means-farewell-to our teachers, our friends, and our dear Alma Mater. How can we be joyous when we are conscious of the fact that those sacred ties are about to be sev- ered forever? It is with a feeling of sadness mingled with joy that we close the first chapter of that great book of Life and eagerly wait to turn the page and glimpse into the second. Who knows what the
