fLi'.LT'i,ii'.,'..4 f T H E M O N R O V I A N Commencement again, and again we must bid farewell to our friends, the seniors. For four years we have been accustomed to meet them in the halls, in the classroom, on the ath- letic field or, perchance, in the office. We trust their association with us has been profitable to them and, as they go forward to their new adven- ture, whether it be in college, in business or in the home, our best wishes go with them. Commencement again and another milestone is passed. This year has been one of triumphs and failures as all years will be, but both successes and failures have their value from an educational viewpoint and it is my hope that our mistakes and achieve- ments of this year will spur us on to greater effort in the year just ahead. Best wishes for a happy vacation. A. K. WILSON. To Our High School Students:- The nations of the world are today learning slowly and painfully that neither individual nor national self- ishness really pays, and that only by uniting in efforts that shall be for the good of all can they hope to pull the world out of the morass of confusion into which it has fallen. How can you, our future citizens, learn this truth here and now? You can pre- pare your lessons thoroughly, not for the sake of grades, but that you may become intelligent citizens. You can cheerfully observe our rules so that the progress of our school shall not be hindered. You can help to pre- serve the beauty of our buildings and grounds and so prevent unnecessary expense. You can fulfill any special duty or office bestowed upon you, not for your own glory, but for the glory and honor of the entire student body. Yours for co-operation, 'GRACE A. osBoRNE. fffx f I Y 1 . . .yi ,. WH! , la: w. N 2.6, . ' . 24

Dltllj Why the Chimes Rang, an im- pressive one-act play, was the high- light of a Christmas program given before the student body on December l5. The same play, with a different cast, was given in the evening for the general public. The casts were made up of mem- bers of Mrs. Doty's dramatics classes. Members of the Nine and Nine acted as the choir in the cathedral scene and furnished the music for the production.
