We’ll not forget in later years, In this big game of life, About the friends we held so dear, Thus early in the strife. And may the records we have made In the short years we were here, Give us freely of their aid To conquer trials severe. But though we may be gone afar, Our hearts will be with thee; And still we’ll watch the guiding star You set for us to see. We’ll hold thee in our memory A treasure none can buy; Fear not that we’ll forget thee, Our dear old Auburn High. .................................................................................................................. fl 7 T verity

We were the largest class yet enrolled in the school, larger in numbers, ambition and accomplishment. At once we or- ganized, electing Mr. H. C. Torreyson and Miss Albinson as class advisors, and Lowry Clark, President. We chose yellow and white for our class colors, and the motto, “Up and Coming,” which was much relied on throughout the year. As Sophomores we started the year right by electing Jacquelin William- son as President. This year we were confident of success,—success in finan- cial, athletic and school affairs. At the end of the year we had gained even the highest of our ambitions, but not without hard work and class spirit. Our Junior year proved many things; the capability of our class advisor, Mr. Torreyson, the capability of the members, in athletic events, in studies, in the success of the play “Adam and Eve,” in good taste which was shown at the Junior Senior Banquet, and in our wonderful organization and co- operation. Also we started something new, we organized a class cabinet con- sisting of six members. They were to carry on the business affairs of the class. At last we are Seniors, we have the respect of the freshies, and the good will of the teachers, but, on the other hand, we are nearly through with all the cares and joys of High School. We have struggled very hard to keep our record clean, to work for the school in every way possible, and to uphold the standard of honesty and loyalty throughout our career. Through the untiring efforts of Mr. Torreyson we have won through the final year, flushed with success. F. W. H. Twenty-One
