HISTCRY OF THE. CLASS OF 11906. tin cups, and the post prandial program, although diiierent from what tramps might be supposed to give, was very entertaining. During this year the class took charge of the Phoenix, and made the record of not only putting out a good paper, but also of putting money in the treasury. As Seniors we came back half a. hundred strong and all were de- termined to pull through this last part of the race and again their diplomas. We took upon our shoulders the responsibility of welcom- ing the Freshmen, which we did with a reception. Again our football players distinguished themselves on the first team and in the class games, won the cuplfor us. Again our speakers entered the medal contests and showed the results of their four years by winning three 'medals-in Oratory, Extemporaneous Speak- ing and the Athletic essay. Again our track men stood tl1e best in- the track team, and entered the State meet. This year the school had one of the best basket ball teams which it had had for many years, and four of its members were Seniors. The girls' team was composed entirely of Seniors and made a good showing. The Senior year is now almost gone. No-thing remains but the closing up of our studies, giving our commencement work, receiving our diplomas, and bidding farewell to the old school and its dear asso- ciates. For dear they are to us, although sometimes the way has seemed long and weary, and despair would come upon us. But look- ing back now, the time has been in reality very short. We realize how much we have enjoyed it, and are loath to leave. We find ourselves entering upon a much greater life, a school life--the.World, and realize that what we will be there, will depend a great deal upon our school training. It is, therefore, our sincere hope that each of us will make no poorer showing in our coming life than welhave in school and if that may be, we will be satisfied. I G 1 ..-- V. - AQ . al 25
