PRES.-Milton Willeford SECY. 8: TREAS.--Tony Hays Jessie Foster, Rose Grigg, Faye Harris, Arthur Hartwick, Antonia Hays, Alma Hueter, Harold Largent, Kingsbury Browne, William Lehn, Frank Chasey, Nellie Corson, Carl Denton, Vivian Elliott, N the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred , and fifteen, a collection of some eighty-two future celebrities was ushered across the lortals of the Greenville High School. Such a stupendous and unrivalled aggregation of Edith McVey, Ruth Mahle, Vera Martin, Douglass Merry, 22 Dorothy Mills, Hazel Morgan, Laura Mulford, Louie Monroe, Rolland Neathery, Agnes Potthast, Pearl Price, Oscar Smith, Nina Thompson, Inez Watson, Milton Willeford, squirrel food was never before seen We were the original Goat Grabbersf' Were we all frightened and appalled by the massive gran deur of the building and the strangeness of our- surroundings? Did we shiver and shake be
fore the stern glances and scathing remarks of our instructors? Nay, not so! We were awed by nothing. We were the first Fresh- man class in the history of the school to be an organized body, and-whisper it gently- we were the last. Remember on that fair institute day in the fall of 1915 when we de- cided that Freshmen should rule and put the Seniors so ingloriously to rout? lt was then that Prof. Long said that Freshmen should organize no more. You win, brother Long, pick up the marbles, for it has been through you and your constant efforts to keep us on the straight and narrow that we have reached the threshold of great achievements. As Sophomores we attained another step in our evolution. Our roll call was not so large this year owing to the failure of some of our contemporaries to stay with us. Did - -- 49 they flunk? Oh, no, no! They had simply developed a liking for their studies and wished to enjoy them another year. At this period our motto was woe be unto him who let's his studies interfere with his high school educa-- tion and we all struggled heroically to live up to this motto. . But now-now look at us! Just let your glance stray back into the south west corner ol' the assembly room. Who is that dignified and studious looking group of young ladies and gentlemen? Ah, there we are! That's the Junior class of such noted fame,-a fine bunch withal. No more do we engage in the frivolities of our Freshman years, for now as exalted Juniors we must assume the Qfgnity that befits our rank and must strive ever to l-e a bright and shining example for our lower classmen. p ..g Senior Class Poem By Ruth Matney We've toiled and worked together for ages to us it seems, And now at last the time has come to realize our dreamsg We're happy and rejoicing to think we-'ve almost won, But can we think of such a thing when life is just begun? Beneath all our rejoicing, defying all restraint This sentiment lies deep seatedg though traces are but faintg We'l1 work no more together, for us no more one endg But soon we'll travel singly, as our different ways we wend. No matter where time finds us, though we're lost in foreign lands Though we're weary of life's burdens, or have too much on hands We'll ne'er forget our high school with its golden glorious days, But receiving inspiration will set the world ablaze. But now the class of '18 goes out these doors so wide To wonder far through valley, o'er plain and mountain side, We're bound for greater aimsg we'll strive to hear well done On that eternal day when all things we have won.
