re' 'Qc f e ss . Wifj! Q. BGHS. Ii- fr we-M1922 iClass of '22 ENlORSl Again Seniors, can it be possible? After all what does it mean? lt means that after four of the happiest possible years the class of '22 is about to be graduated. lt will leave the high school, go beyond the limits of the past four years and compete with others who are trying to draw from the stone of opportunity, the sword of success, with which the pathway of life can be carved. The plan of the year-book is that it shall contain accounts of the activities of the school during the current year. But since this Hi-Echo is edited by the class of '22 it is to be expected that the attention of the reader should often be called to this class and to its contributions to the school since the fall of 'l8. YVC wrote a page in school history when we put ourselves on record as the first class to complete the junior-Hi system. At the beginning of the Freshman year we took another step toward the hall of fame bv instituting the custom of organizing as a class. VVe elected ,lonathan Ladd for our first president and so well did he serve us that he was reelected to office for our Sophomore year. Our motto, NVhile we live let us livef' which we chose at this time has been a constant reminder of our ideals as a class. Not only the class colors, purple and gold, but also the dallodil as Ji class llower give evidence of the good taste of the Freshmen of 318. ln the spring of our junior year, with VVallace VVagner as our president we served one of the best banquets in the history of the school at which the attractive decorations were a prominent feature. lt was also during this year that our class began to take a prominent part in school activities. Some of us gave onr best to both boys' and girls' athletics while other with different abilities took their part in Debate and Literary Societies. Our record for this year needs no special reviewing for it is familiar to even the youngest among us-the Freshmen. As we look back over the past four years of our school life we realize that there have been many opportunities which we have grasped, but also too many which we have allowed to slip by. VVe can see the students in the under classes taking the same course and in the same way disregarding the well intended advice which is given for their direction. But let us remember that we should not dwell on the mistakes of the past but use them as stenping stones to greater success in the future. Let us carry our motto with us as we leave old B. G. Hi for the world needs us with a belief in such a motto. WVe have had privileges during our high school course wvhich many have been denied and the world has reason to exnect more of us because of these opportunities. Although the class will undoubtedly be separated in interests because of the various vocations into which we may enter and tho we may be scat- tered over the world, memories will always return of our high school dars. l'lac'i member will be proud to say that he was graduated from B. G. Hi and that he still believes in its ideals and work as he progresses year by year. H. W. o. '22, t 4. -if--A - 1--..-5-f- 15 -...-.--..-.tl 1-.. - --4 4.
