1 I Weive ome a Lon Wa . . . The gay nineties . . . high button shoes . . . the horse and buggy . . . today these ancient, whimsical expressions have a special signilicance. For this is the middle of the century, a time of reflection . . . And here at Arthur Hill we have a special appreciation of the contrast between then and now' ,... a contrast made vivid by the construction in l94O of the modern building which we now attend-a schoolhome modern not only in its construction but in its principles of administration and teaching . . . compare this with that nostalgic era of l9OO when the first Legenda was compiled at the red brick 'structure on Court Street. Arthur Hill students of that day will remember it as a time of inkwells, rickety desks, and gas-lights. In the pages of this, the 1950 Legenda, we shall accentuate the progress of half a century at Arthur Hill with reminders of those byhgone days when men were men and unruly Hillites got the hickory stick instead of eighth hours. Golden Jubilee!
