It is our greatest pride to know, At least we're not considered slow, The envy of all classis here. As for our pepg and worse, we fear The faculty despair this set to teach Or 'ere our ivory craniums to reach. Illustrious have taken root In this class of our institute. Among our group of shining lights Is Oather Cummins, who put up such fights For A. H. S. its games to win. But Bernice helps our foes to trim: Pep she's got up to the brim. There's Conny Rielly, too, you know, Who is ever ready to blow and crow, Thus brightening many a dreary day, With his foolishness banishing care away. In short, there are so many shining lights, That will some day reach iunthought of heights-- Whose names down through the ages Shall ador the history pages. , That we must stop: But you shall hear more of this noble crop When in nineteen twenty-five Will Seniors be of Akron High. -Theodora Yeaton fa x-.

Colors' Old rose and Blue Flower: Wild Rose Presidente-Bernice Burnett Secretary and Treasurer-fOma Ogden , We are the hardest worked class in the building. Geometry, English II, Ancient History, Manual Training and Domestic Science are our troubles. However, our teachers like us, even if We don't spend all our shining moments bent over booksg so life is not so unbearable as it might be. As to parties, it is true we have passed them up, but not being fortune tellers, we have never been able to see so clearly into the future as to tell the faculty just what We are going to do and how everything would turn out. That's because We are conscientious and never make rash promises.
