SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Four years ago our fathers sent forth to Brimfield Township High School, a new class, thirty in number, wonderful in talent, and dedicated to the proposition that the class of 1924 is greater than others. Its members, twelve in number, have finished the fourth year of their high school course, having tested and proven that at least a few of the original class, so dedicated, and so talented, cannot be surpassed. We would now express our appreciation of those who here gave their all that this school might excel. The renowned Seniors who struggled here have won a reputation which is far above my power to improve. The world will little note nor long remember what I say here, but it can never forget what the Seniors did here. The gifts to the school, the successful Lyceum course, and honest labor given for the Alma Mater all reflect creditably. It is for the following classes to be dedicated to the lifework left before them, that from these celebrated and illustrious members of the Senior class they should take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion. That we here highly resolve that those renowned students shall not have worked in vain, that the class of 1924 shall be blessed with even greater accomplishments, and that this class, the Seniors of Brim-field High School, and the pride of their teachers, shall not perish from the earth. — M.
