O fortunate times! Decreed to usher into the world our famous achievements: achievements worthy to be engraven on brass, carved on marble, and delineated in some masterpiece ofipainting, as monuments of our glory, and examples for posterity. The achievements are, of course, those of the knights of Johnson Castle so univer- sally made known by fame. In c.ur long struggle for this said renown, we have en- countered many surprising and stupendous adventures. One bright September morning we entered this magnificent, gorgeous castle. We were at once welcomed by the lord of this majestic stronghold, the Duke of Guise. There were many dangers and difliculties fespecially those Merciless Riddles of Lady Brennan and Lady Nicholsj which we had to conquer. After we had surmounted these critical situations, we passed on to the rank of juniors. In this period of life we were able to participate in some of the activities and enjoyments of castle life without fear of being scorned by our superiors. We managed to make the Thanksgiving assembly a success fat least, we hope it wasj. Our dictators even received our all-powerful aid in executing those mighty spectacles, the junior-Senior play and prom. But now at last we have reached the goal which we have undoubtedly deserved. For us to have attained this eminent degree of learning has cost us time, hunger, dizziness in the head, and other inconveniences too numerous to relate here. But we have by some hook or crook and also by the guidance of that peerless personage, Senorita Tackels, acquired this selfsame knowledge. We have also contrived to score a success in the Christmas assembly, the Juniorg-Senior play, and to issue this peerless, peppy, painstaking, puzzling publication. I 'Q Now we are about to sally forth into the ruthless, frigid, expansive worldg and we give this warning to our fellow knights: Many who go to seek wool come back shorn themselves. So watch out lest you be saying a few years hence, Yesterday I was a knight at Johnson Castle, now I haven't a gallon of gas I can call my own. Adios. There are no birds this year in last year's nest. Page I8
