As I sit and gaze dreamingly, through the windows of the past, my memory collects all the pleasant incidents and happiest days of my life. They all come crowding in as if it all occurred within a few days; hut it was two years ago. How well 1 rememl ered two years ago when 1 tried to look into the future. How gloomy it looked, and how I thought it would he. “all work and no play.” The future of two years ago. is now the past. These have been the most eventful years of our young life. The honor is not entirely due to the teacher, as we are a brilliant, jolly class, ready to absorb, like a sponge, all the wisdom that falls from the lips of our instructors. I'll admit that we have found hard, immovable objects in our educational path, but we managed to remove them. In the meantime, we did not neglect our social gatherings. Besides a sleigh ride, a hard time, and a number of other successful parties, we found great amuse- ment in initiating our under classmates. W e have chosen our last year's flower and colors which are the “ white rose ” and “ green and white. ' Our class consists of eighteen ambitious .and unfailing classmates. Our group of well chosen officers are: Ross Stines. President; Arlene Hastings, Vice President; Alma Tinkham. Secretary; and Eugene Mitchell. Treasurer. You may Ik sure that they are living up to their offices. As our class chaperon, we chose Mr. Taft, who is doing his utmost to help us. I'm again trying to penetrate the future, and it does not look to me now. as it did two years ago. I'm now declaring that the class of 1927. when it reaches its goal, shall stand out prominently beneath Maroon and White. M a m i e Rosen berg Dagc twenty
