1Ha1Phirinrg Wfe, the Class of 1915, are now about to sever our connections with the BRILLIANT HIKYH Sex-1ooL. lt is with pleasure that we recall the happenings of our association here, and loath are we to part with them. Broken and checkered has been our history, but our faith and loyalty throughout it all has not swerved from itspoint, and tonight as we stand upon life's threshold it is with a feeling that we owe a debt of gratitude to those about us. 'So hear me in behalf of the class, oh, Board of Education, and accept our thanks for the opportunities you have given us that we might better prepare our- selves to play our part in life's drama. life trust that in the future you may be able to offer even better privileges to the youth of the community. NVC wish to thank our teacher for his kind and patient efforts in his en- deavors to guide us along the path of knowledge. Ofttimes have our innocent pranks proven an eyesore to him. lint now it is over, and may his precepts and examples prove to be an inspiration to us all through life. i And now kind and loving parents we wish to acknowledge our apprecia- tion to you who have made it possible for us to attend high school. Vlle know that ofttimes we might have been of service to you at home. but you have toiled and labored that we might have opportunities which you yourselves were denied. Classmates, the time l1as now come for us to take our leave of each other. Thus far we have traveled together, henceforward we must travel diliferent ways. Each of us 'have our calling, and how we shall respond to that call depends entirely upon ourselves as individuals. May we choose that for which we are best fitted so we may be able to discharge our duties with the greatest elliciency. XV ith this thought in mind let us now say to one and all FAREVVELL.

PEARL BELVILLE. Pearl comes to us from Rush Run. She was born at NVarren Ridge and has attended school at Hopewell, Connorville, Tiltonville, Glens Run, Scotch Ridge, Brush Run and Steeple Valley, before coming here. Pearl, like most pearls, is certainly a gem. She is a hard worker and a sociable companion. MYRTLE B.-XRRICKMA N. '- Myrtle was born at Franks Run, Dodgers County, XV. Va. She came to Brilliant in 1913, after having at- tended school at Ravenswood, W. Va.: Campton, Ky.: Hartford, Gibbstown, Cottageville, all in Xvest Vir- ginia, and Haggans, Pa. She expects to soon leave us to go to a farm near Atwater. VVe shall all miss Myr- tle aud her pleasant smile, but wish l1er success, and feel that her NVest Virginia experiences will count for much in her rural life. VVe trust also that there are sotne young men about Atwater, for Myrtle is very popular with the Fellows, ROBLEY E. ROBINSON. Rob is a native of xVCllSlJl1l'g', VV, Va. He began his schooling in that State, but shortly after came to our little village, where he has chosen to remain ever since. He has a very promising career. And perhaps we shall hear of him some day as he relates his mid- night walk Cor laterj beyond Empire. HAZEL YOUNG. Hazel was born at Martins Ferry. She has attended school at Tolleston, Ind, but is now a Brilliant young girl. She has a captivating heart and a winsome smile, which sometimes breaks into a laugh. She seems to feel very much at home. even when in school, and sometimes thinks she is addressing her mother, as she addresses the professor.
