Three years ago we assembled at the new brick schoolhouse for the purpose of adding to our lives the knowledge which we knew was necessary to fight life's battle, for we know that each person is responsible for his future and that We build the ladder by 'which 'wc riso From the lowly earth to the valnted skins And mount to its summit round by round. That, year 119143 a new superintendent, Prof. Grubbs, came from his home in the North to take charge of our school. He was a splendidly educated man and much devoted to his profession. and labored earnestly and well for our school during the two years he was here, and often we think, when our lessons are hard, of his favorite motto: Genius is the ability to labor. 4 Those of the present c'ass, then present, were: Wesley Kemp, Percy Short, Charles Coates, Bess Walace and Dillie Heald. At first Charles was not liked very much by the girls, because he was noted for his pranks and unexpected jokes: but finally he won favor by the use of a large vocabulary and by his constant good humor. Percy was very popular from the beginning, being noted for love-making and wit, always making you laugh at the wrong time and in the wrong place. Wesley, better known as Red, because of his red hair, expected to be a bacter- iologistg but prefers to be a baseball star now. Bess, the pet of the class, wishes to become famous thru her domestic science work, but is content now to be the baby and a very popular young lady. Dil'ie, who on account of her sweet and cheerful disposition, is loved by the entire class and by her example of sweet womanliness has done much to help us build high ideals of character. She expects to be a teacher in the future, but is content now just to be a Senior. I The next year we were told that we could take as many subjects as possible and began to scramble for more units. That year added several more classmates to our number-they were: Bernice Nisbett Otis Jones and Oakley Thorp. Bernice came from Arkansas and did not seem to be ashamed of it. At tirst she thought our school very rough, but due to her present environment, has lost some of her dignity and has won a place in our hearts and become one of us. Otis, very handsome, a favorite of the girls, a pet of the teachers, because he says nothing to vex them, joined our list and won all the honor and praise possible, is now a full-fledged member and an ardent worker of the class. Oakley, a product of the lfVest, which probably has had an influence on his physique, as he is large and strong, is the genius of the class-better known as Oakley the Perfect. Our Junior year was a year of great joy. We did everything that we were allowed to do and enough more to keep the teachers always frowning, and us in trouble. During the latter part of the year we became more cultured. That year our parties and picnics afforded us much pleasure. ln the beginning of our Senior year a new superintendent came to take charge of us, Prof. C. H. Parrick of Oklahoma City. He is a man well qualified for his position, and school work seems no burden to him. By his congenial cheery ways he has won the friendship of all his students. Our Senior yearghas been one spent mostly in the school rooms and office with the faculty for: Labor 'with :cal as we will. Somclhing remains undone, Somclhing ffllllCl'0lHf7ll5l16'd still, Awaits' the rising sun. ,There were no new members added to our class this year, so we close this simple record of our class life with the hope that after this life is o'er we may be reunited ln that great beyond, where no one enters except those with a life well spent in service w ere . . . Only the lllaslcr shall pnaisc ns And only the Master sllall blame, And no one shall wo:-ls for money' And no one shall 'work for fame, But each for the joy of working, Ana' each in his separate star, Shall paint the thing as he secs it, For the God of things as they are. ..12...

PERCY SHORT lluuzorous Editor of Tl1e Stout. What would we do without Percy when we are blue and need some one to make jolly times for us-Percy wh! always looks on the bright side and who is a good fellow with everyone. We hope and believe that he will al- ways be the cheerful fellow he is now. ...ll- frv 2-- WXXQ is cxkxgxs- .db I '

Riley A Reverie I sit tonight by the fireside 1 And think of days that are o'er In the dear old Broken Bow High School- The days that are no more. How often do I see pictures Made in the fire-light's blaze Of school-mates, class-mates, teachers And scenes of remembered days. Some days are dark and dreary But teachers kind and true, Cleared away the clouds about us- Let the golden sunshine thru. - Many days we spent together . Happy days of bliss and glow Many years will be remembered In our school of Broken Bow. No school of all the nation And its teachers as we know, Will compare with that we honor In the town of Broken Bow. QQ? Class Yell S-E-N-I-O-R-S Seniors, Seniors! Yes, Yes, Yes! Rah, Rah, Rah!
