THE KYOTE OF ILLINGS FOR 1923 Greetings To the layman it might apjiear that a principal would become so accus- tomed to graduation that he would take it as a matter of course and give it little attention. Yet. I can truthfully say that this is not true with me. Each year as I line up the seniors, ready for their march to the commence- ment platform, my smiles or my scowls, as the case may l e, are forced in an effort to cover the ache in my heart as 1 think that my chances for association with another hundred or so of my cherished young people are practically at an end. With the passing of the class of 1923. this feeling will 1 more pro- nounced because this is my first class from Billings High School, the first class to graduate after spending the full four years under my supervision, and I will write it just as I would say it: “I hate to see you go.” In the energv and enthusiasm of the staff which made this book possible we see the spirit of the class typified, for the group is made up entirely of seniors. With their faculty advisor, to whom this book is justly dedicated, they have spared no effort to make their publication a credit to the class and to the school, and they have certainly succeeded. But when their ambitions along this line have l een realized, and the class of 1923 completes its work in the recitation room, we trust that they will not leave Billings Hi to its own fate, but will return often as loyal alumni to help keep alive that spirit for which the school is so widely renowned.
