TI-1E MIRROR 5 hiturials It seems rather trite to begin our farewell with the old stand-by 'iXVe sincerely hate to leave the dear old sc-hool--etc, but since it is true, why iry to be original? The reason this sentence is so overworked is the very fact that it is so true of every class leaving XValtham High. -ind the class of 1927 is no excep- tion. We are sincerely sorry to leave the place, down deep in our liearts, no matter how vociferously we may protest to the contrary- no matter how enthusiastically we look forward to the future. We could not stay here for three years and not become more or less at- tached to the place and all its as- sociations. Of course things have not been all pleasant and easy, while we have been here, but now that we are leaving, it is easy to overlook the disagreeable things and retain only pleasant memories. All our hard work seems Worth while, now tha.t it is a thing of the past and we have reached our goal. We are parting from many friends, both teachers and classmates, but we hope to see them again, and per- haps their companionship will seem more agreeable tif possible, ahemlj when it is a privilege and not a necessity. It seems hardly possible that the time has come for us actually to say good-bye to Wal- tham High, but since it has, we must make the best of it and leave our best wishes and sincere good will to those who are still to enjoy another year or two here. May they appreciate every moment of their stay. In a few days the members of the class of 1927 will no longer be students at the Waltham High School. After the last diploma has been presented and the last song sung at the graduation exercises they will have become proud, se- rious alumni, ready to face the world, always, we hope, to look back fondly at their school days, always ready to stand up for their alma mater, Waltham High School. The rest of us will be sorry to see them go. It will seem queer, next fall, to return to school and find so many of our friends gone. We shall all miss them. They, too, will probably find it queer not to return to Waltham High School when fall rolls around again. Some will go on to college, others will take positions in offices and shops, but very few will come back to their old school for HP. Gr.'s With so many of our athletes grad- uating it will be strange enough to see so few cheery Waltham High smiles beaming above white Wal- tham High W's on red Waltham High sweaters. It will surely take time next fall for the rest of us to get used to missing our friends of this year 's class. Good-bye and good luck to the class of 1927 ! J ARVIS FARLEY.
