On May 25, 1955, fifty-one proud seniors will walk up to Mr. Lowe and receive their diplomas. This signifies that A Student has completed twelve years of schooling and is ready to take aplace in his community. No meri- torious awards are given for time and energy donated to make class projects a success. No signification is shown of the fun, disappointments, homework, lessons or know- lege which have been accumulated in those years. Aswe took our seats for the first time in an educational institution, we were scared and alittle apprehensive. The first thing we learned was obedience to the teacher. Nextcame the get-acquainted period. We played games, read stories, sang and participated as a group. We learn- ed our ABC's and began to read and print our names. We received our first report cards and took them home to face the music . We went on to the next grades, learn- ing to write, multiply, divide and write themes, among other things. Like other kids we got out of line once in awhile and a session after school or a talk with a board made us see the error of our ways and we speedily repented our misdeeds. Besides readin', writin' and 'rithmetic, we got in a little recreation. The annual Christmas operetta, the Easter egg hunts, the Christmas exchange,the Valentines and the plays we gave inclass were interesting deviations from scholastic worries. Then as we entered junior high school some changes were made. We would soon be in high school, almost adults, and we were supposed to act as such. Finally came eighth grade graduation and at last we were full-fledged high schoolers. The feeling of queasiness we had as we entered the halls of Butler High School for the first time as students soon disappeared. The choosing of classes with a glint of proudness that we had finally become high school stu- dents. The almost haughty acceptance we gave the new freshman as we became sophomores. The hayrides when perhaps we stayed out later than we shouldhave, but it was all in fun. The teacher who loved to give us home- work, and the homework we didn't do. The envious looks in the eyes of underclassmen as we showed off our class sweaters and class rings. The clubs and extra-curricular activities in which we participated, The scrapes we got into and the sessions in the principal's office. We weren't really mean just a little ornery. The horseplay at the old concessions stand. The lectures we got for being a little lazy. And at last the big day. We're seniors Gosh, we finally made it! The thrill of being on top. The paper drives, chili suppers and other money-making schemes. Our senior pictures, name cards, announce- mentsg it's a wonderful life! There are many other in- cidents that come to mind and they combine with what's already been listed to comprise our high school library. It's been a lot of fun and a lot of work butwe wouldn't have it changed! g Compliments of EYSTER DRUG STORE, Butler. 8 1 L.. - .... M .... - tl. ..., ..., ..,.. -
