OF I t e Qlll ISENIORS' SEASONS Patricia Dellinger Spring-buds burst forth with bright green to cover all trees and shrubberyg daffodils release the earth around them, the sun shines bright. So it was that the group of students with sunny faces came to the school house labeled Freshmen . They were considered just a bit green. They quickly adjusted themselves, as the green grass does to the blue sky, after they had elected officers: Bonnie Chain, presi- dent g Barbara Palmatier, secretary, John Moyer, treasurer. Summer-a Warm sun, trees fade slightly on the tops, grain begins to head. The students, sophomores now, were beginning to fit into the picture. They had lost most of their greenness. A future could be seen for them. They, too, realized this fu- ture as they chose leaders: Arlis Fairman, president, George Fitch, vice president, Bonnie June Chain, secretary, Robert Meulman, treasurer. Autumn-the sun beats down on the earth to see what can stand up under its heat, wheat is cutg trees are browning, all nature seems mature-advanced. Our students were advanced. They were juniors. They were enduring their hardships with smiles. Profits beamed forth. Already forms could be detected from the moulds. Progress was helped by the aid of: Richard Habicht, president, Jack Hess, vice presidentg Arlis Fairman, secretary, Harold Hyink, treasurer. Winter-cold Winds, snowdrifts, blinded routes, warm fires, all are signs of the last season of the year. Students donned their heaviest apparel in the form of the pre- vious knowledge, and marched forth as seniors. They faced the teachers, waded the subjects, and studied through the text books. The leaders: Lorraine Morley, president, Arlis Fairman, vice president, Ruthe Montgomery, secretary, Suzanne Mc- Kinnon, treasurer built the fires. The students kept it going strong with the play, Pollyanna , baccalaureate, and commencement. Spring-we have seen our students go through four seasons. They overcame all obstacles. They came forth, grew, harvested, and saw themselves through the hard- est season of all. But what now: When each grasps that little white roll in his hands and walks that isle for the last time as a student, he goes into a new spring-a new world. What lies ahead cannot be seen, but he is able to face it for he has learned to endure hardships. He will not be forgotten. The seniors of lil will be remem- bered, and the four seasons will live long in the heart of each . Thirte
