BROCKTONIA TO ARMS, JUNIORS! INQQQQGI Juniors! The call has come! We are standing on the threshold of a new period in our lives. It has be- come our privilege to assume the lead- ership of the Brockton High School. We can do it! Let us square our shoulders, step into the place left vacant by our Senior friends, and show the world that the class of l928 does not lack initiative and ability! May it be said, when our turn comes next year, that we were the finest class ever graduated from B. H. S. Remember our class motto: Best, Highest, Sincerestf' Let us strive to emulate the splen- did example set before us by those leaving us today. Not only must we take up our new responsibilities in a worthy manner. but, also we must exercise our influence among the low- er classmen, inspiring them to follow our example. To our friends, the Seniors, we offer our best wishes for good fortune and happiness in the future. They deserve great commendation for their work. Their memories will always be enshrined in the hearts of their lower class mates. May their careers be prosperous! Class of l928, President, Edward Farley. Vice President. Ruth Bolling, Secretary, Dorothy Cooper, Treasurer, George Keith. l 1 I 4.1

LT, BROCKTONIA ONWARD TO SUCCESS The hour of departure has arrived, Seniors, and we must leave dear old Brockton High School, where we have now completed our four short years. Truly, it was not so very long ago that we entered the school as Hrst-year students. During that probation year, school-life and school-spirit did not mean a great deal to us, as we were considered mere children . We frequently lost our way in the cor- ridors, and survived many other slightly distressing incidents, such as occur in the life of the average pupil. Growing older and wiser, the class members became organized, and everyone assumed a more enthusiastic attitude toward the various activities, attended social events, and, in general, felt better acquainted with the school and its routine. As Juniors, we be- came still more progressive, and pushed forward until we reached the point which is the goal of every low- er-classman: our senior year. As Seniors, we hope that we have set worthy examples for others to fol- low. After pleasant years of comrade- ship, it is no easy task to separate. But in spite of regret at the severing of ties of friendship, we must not falter in our progress. It is incum- bent upon each one of us to 'lcarry on , with added zest, and ever keep in mind our motto, ONWARD TO SUCCESS . We have been highly indebted, this past year, to our faithful teach- ers, and especially to our new head- master, Mr. Rye, whose kindly guid- ance and ready helpfulness have solved many of our problems. Let no one of us leave without shaking his hand, and wishing him the best of success in the years to come! Robert Tonis, '27.
