The Quest Virginia Douglas Ye know, no doubt, of a pilgrim band That set forth years before To seek a shrine and worship there The god of high school lore. The pilgrim party traveled far, But always in its soul There shone the light of great desire To find, at last, its goal. At times, indeed, the road was rough. At times the path obscure; But with great faith and hope all odds The party could endure. The band has reached the looked-for end; It seeks, now, fields anew. It goes forth now with other aims And other goals in view. 20

THE REFLECTOR -• ■■ The Court of Learning Ernest Scarboro CHAPTER I Now the history of the class of 1927 of the Greensboro I ligh School is in this wise: In the beginning, in the nineteen-hundred-and-twenty-third year of our Lord, on the first of September, there entered into this Court oi Learning a band ot Freshmen. Most of this bold group came up from the eighth grade, where for many months they had been storing their minds with great wisdom. And it came to pass as they did enter this court, that they were received by wondering glances from the members of the court. But these glances did prove to be directed at the weeness of two of these wee strangers, Mary Elizabeth King and Mary Lynn Carlson. Likewise it came to pass that several of the timid boys of this band were received with great shouts by a wild horde of creatures known at court as “Sophomores”—they verily did possess a great taste for Freshman blood, for they immediately pounced on the newcomers. One Jack Coble and one Ernest Wyche. by name, did seem to suffer the most at the hands of these hospitable courtiers. It happened that just after these Freshmen had recovered from their welcome and had settled down quietly that a great honor system was installed, which caused all to wonder with astonishment, and to girdle their armor with determination.
