FOREWORD Once more has Commencement arrived at l... H. S., and once more is the annual edi- tion of the Lore submitted to the public. This has been a year of many obstacles to over- come in the edition of the High School paper, but yet we feel we have come through with victory. Changing from a magazine four times a year to a monthly paper has been, at times, a very hard task. We of the Lore Staff, who will leave l... H. S., feel we are leaving the issue, Shall the Lore continue a monthly paper or magazine in competent hands. Knowing the hardships and criticism often endured by the staff on a school paper, we ask the student body to stand back of their paper, to give their hearty co-operation and help when possible. To boost, not knock. To all those who helped in any way, students, advertisers, teachers and Mr. Gibbs, we thank you. And we wish the best of luck, progress and success to L. H. S. and the Lore. To the Faculty of l... H. S. the Lore feels it owes a few parting thoughts. There may be times when discouragement at the shortcomings of students have al- most overwhelmed you, but with perseverance you try to overcome our faults and show us what is best for us. The Class of '23 may forget much text book lore, but they can never forget nor outgrow the tendencies for good that you have developed in our characters during the last four years. Often in the years to come our minds will turn back to you, to your faithful and patient teachings, and the kind endurances of us as shown by the advice and help of your counsel. Q Gracious teachers, if bewildered, We have halted by the way. If low bowing o'er our failures, We have lost hope's cheering ray: Then thy gentle guidance lending Thou hast bade us lift our eyes: And behold, the goal seemed nearer. Brighter shone the glorious prize.

There are many big men who do little things, thinking of the evil they may do, but there are also big men do big things, thinking only of the good they may do. One of these latter is Palmer Mitchell, the leader of the school orchestras. With quiet enthusiasm and small recompense he works with the students, helping them in their efforts to show the com- munity that there is plenty of talent here if encouraged and appreciated. During the past winter during the two musical comedies, lVlr. lVlitchell's untiring efforts to help along cannot be too highly commended as well as that of the nembers of the orchestra. To Mr. Mitchell and the orchestras, the Seniors bid a sad farewell, thanking you for the cheer of your music and wishing you all the credit you justly deserve. THEY COME NOT BACK Remember, three things come not back: The arrow sent upon its tracks- It will not swerve, it will not stay lts speed: it flies to wound or slay. The spoken word, so soon forgot By thee, but it has perished not: ln other hearts 'tis living still And doing work for good or ill. And the lost opportunity- That cometh back no more to thee: ln vain thou weepest, in vain dost yearn, These three will never more return.
