 During the past school term we had almost forgotten the litlie old school house on the hill. It seems to frown down upon us like a deposed Monarch who knowing his day is ended, still yearns for that power that once was his. I said we had almost forgotten it—but no ! we still remember. Who can forget the little incidents that took place there ? Who does not remember Prof. Sheetz’s smoking stove ? Who forgets the big fire in which the entire school marched out in perfect (?) order? Who can truthfully say they disremember having a part in the sneezing pow der incident ? Friends, those wore (he good old days. No more do we see the boys strolling out Blaine Avenue, enjoying a peaceful noon’s smokp without interference from the faculty. No more do we see Prof. Sheetz with a malignant look in his eyes working at the old stove, (beautiful stove), with the thermometer below zero. No more do we la ar of a freshman losing his wearing apparel and going home in a barrel No more do we see the Professor toting coal from the basement. All this has passed and we alone are left to grieve. But cheer up ! Do not pine for the loss of M. H. S. Be up and doing ! Ther ' is a future to be made for the new School that has taken the place of the old. Let M. II S. lie in her glory but do something for G. T. H. S. —Charles Patterson.
