THE KCHO Another term has almost ended, and twelve sober (?) Seniors are soon to say, “Farewell! to High School Days.” Seniors—what is your attitude toward the days you have spent within the walls of S. R. H. S.? Some of you are rejoicing over the fact that these days are soon ended, while others regret it. You realize that you have reached a mile-post in your lives—a fork in the road—where you will pause to consider which road you will travel, for commencement is not a closing of your schooling, but a starting point, where you will commence the real school of life. Perhaps some of you feel that you have gained practically nothing from your studies of the past four year. 1t would be well to listen to the experi- ences of many who have traveled far beyond the fork in the road; but prob- ably you would listen non-believingly, when told of the benefits of the High School education, so that you yourselves will learn only by your own ex- periences the value of the studies through which you have plodded. During the next term we will miss you not only in the study hall and in the class rooms, but also in the work of the different activities. Now, as you are leaving High, we wish you happiness and success in the future, and hope that you will have both pleasure and success in that which you are choosing as your life-work. : k o 4 s this is the last of the term, we are all looking forward to the begin- ning of the spring semester. How eager we are to begin work in the new annex! It is to be hoped that the students will appreciate the splendid new building with the new furnishings, and not try to detract and spoil the ap- pearance by markings of any sort. Let us endeavor to prove our appreciation and thanks to the community by respecting the property. There has been a change in the school system ,by which the pupils of the seventh and eighth grades will pursue some of the new studies afforded us by the annex. It is hoped that these younger students will be well treated and that their rights upon the new premises will be recognized by the upper- classmen. In looking back over the events of the past term, we realize that we have enjoyed many pleasures in addition to our studies, and that the school has continued to make itself known as one of honor and power, under the super- vision of our new principal, Mr. Montgomery. The track team, the basketball team, and the debating team have made the strength of the school known to the neighboring communities, winning for us many beautiful trophies. The faculty has supported and aided us in all that we have done. The members of the school board have planned and supervised the completion and furnishing of the new annex. The Mothers’ Club has given us several enjoyable entertainments, and the High School journal has enjoyed a prosperous term, because of the loyal support of the student body. [Page twenty-nine]

Miss Mills has been working hard, too, and ought to be very pleased with the results which she has brought about. One reason for the success of the club is the fact that at the first of the term, a try-out was held, which de barred those members whom it was thought would not be benefited by the work. All of the school activities have progressed this semester, and have ac- complished much. This is due to the attitude of the students as well as to the ability of those in charge of the various departments. Miss Nesbit’s selections were very much appreciated. The students rarely have such a treat, and showed their appreciation for it. On the last day of school, December 20, the following program was given: Plovesssweer Dreams and encores.....)..000.6..5. l'remont Orchastra Wireylrge trolley, HuNuiled Use Sir aneKile: San onan me bees Geos eeteen he Perry Bonar Milton Sayer, accompanist WO CaImGO Ore aNeMNOSAL Vie cr Eee matty We ane ene Sh.
