PANORAMA ANNUAL Mentor Hotes June, One Thousand, Nine Hundred and Thirty-one, and another graduating class is leaving B. C. 11. S. Another group of young people have completed that period in their lives that becomes sweeter even as it recedes. When one looks back upon all the joy of school life, loyal friendships, and happy memories, one realizes how much has been gained. There is but one shadow on this happy event in that our dear friend and adviser, Mr. Rushmer, is absent. For the first time in twenty years, he is not present at the commencement exercises, but somehow his encouraging, helpful presence, that will always linger in our mem¬ ories, will make this graduation a little less incomplete. The excellent record that the 1931 class leaves behind in scholar¬ ship, participation in debate, public speaking, dramatics, athletics, and fine school spirit deserves commendation. As a climax to all these activities and a celebration after a breath¬ taking week of examinations, the unusual class day, consisting of a trip to Owasco Lake, brings down the curtain on the graduation of the Class of 1931.
