20 THE ORACLE Senior Class History Four years ago we as a Freshman Class, consisting of thirty-six mem- bers entered High School. eager for the course which lay before us and appreciating the opportunity of being the first class to enter upon our High School career in the New Building. During the first year we, as did the preceding classes, endured the scoffs and' jeers which every Freshman must undergo. As Sophomores, we passed out of the first year's humiliation and found ourselves a true part of the High School, from which time we have on several occasions displayed both our literary talent and athletic prow- essg nor have we in the least failed to show our capacity for performing pranks. As Juniors we looked forward to the following year which would make us Seniors. It seemed so impossible-for we thought it would be so different and so nice to be members of a body of such distinction as the Senior Class. But today we realize that those were mere fancies, for being Seniors is not so different after all. Some who were Freshmen with us have dropped out, others have moved away and few have been added to our number giving us a membership of twenty-five, the largest Senior Class in the history of P. H. S. We look back over these four years as a past which can never be repeated and we regard that past as the happiest days of our livesg but we look into a future, which has a place for each of us to fill,-a future moulded by the knowledge gained in our school days, embellished with the happy memories of the past and glowing with high ideals and hopes.
