A A Faculty . A A guiding hand for builders, A means for the foundation, The army of regilders A To brighten an old structure, A With eyes upon the future, 3 Holding good from out the past. . 1 Seniors 1 For us to make the crossing 1 With eyes upraised, not down, 1 To carry priceless treasures A 1 For usefulness in life, To shape a better future Through work and faith and love.

THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER ' 9 COED:OEOEODOEOEOEOEO:OEOEOEOEOEOEOEO: Finally the Senior Class installed police patrols to watch the iioors and to bring about order and less congestion. The Senior Class forged to the front with their clever performances on the Halloween parade as well as in the Variety Vodvil. This year the management of the Recorderii was entrusted to our class, the girls joined the Better Bred Club, and many social activities resulted. The Photo Club, a newly developed organization, has been under the super- vision of a Senior member and great work has been accomplished. During the holidays the Senior and Junior class Combined to give a successful Christmas party and dance. Throughout the entire year this class has been prominent in educational and amusing pro- grams in assembly. A fitting Masque was given by our Class to honor the George Washington Bi-centennial, The members of the Secretarial Club attended a luncheon given by the Business and Pro- fessional Women to acquaint the graduates with the many fields open to women. The nurses 0f Saratoga Hospital invited the Senior girls to a delightful tea. For two years oratoriical prizes were won by members of our class and place in the National Public Speaking Con- test was won by Elizabeth Lasher and Virginia Phair, two classmates of ours. The Drum Major of the Drum Corps was a Senior boy. In the Skidmore Music Festival credit came to the school through the selection of J oan Davenport as soprano soloist. In this, our final year, we had the honor of approving a design for a new school ring which symbolizes our city. The school play, iiA Pair of Sixes, by Edward Peple was a unique presentation of great success under the direction of Miss Lena Smith. We were proud of our class. We have already had our pictures taken for the Recorder , our announcements are ordered; Donald Tillotson and Dorothy Nachman lead our class in merit and we anxiously await the happiest moment of our lives-graduati0n from high school.
