Cbitorial In the spring of 1912 the Pine Buee was launched forth into the journalistic field. For each ensuing year the Senior and Junior Classes have pubUshed the Annual, trying, at each step, an amelioration of same. The booklet has been improved each year in all lines, until we have reached the place where we feel that any High School would justly emulate it. We are proud of it, for it contains a culmination of thoughts, produced from some of the purest boys and girls in the South. The Pine Buee — we would not change its name, for the title signifies unity. The many petals woven together Ijy nature into a substantial bulb. The burr hangs high above the heads of all, waving in the jnire, fresh Southland air, as it whispers through the pine. So it is with the Annual of ' 16: we have worked in unity, and tried to make this Annual soar above all the editions of previous years. It is no intent of ours, in this liooklet, to catalogue all the events that have happened during our term of Seniority. But our purpose is to record a few of our many accomplishments and aims, that the coming generations of our school, as well as the number of friends who are interested in us, may get a clearer con- ception of our ambitious outlook upon life. Even though our achievements hereafter may be far more praiseworthy than we can now hope for, yet will we look upon the class of ' 16 with exultant pride and admiration. This year has given us a taste of preeminence which has stimulated our youthful amliitions to greater and nobler things. To those who have kindly contributed toward the collecting of the material for this book, as well as the diligent coeditors, I am indeed grateful. To our esteemed and much beloved Principal, we unfeigningly extend our thanks for his paternal watchfulness over, and unceasing interest manifesti ' tl in us. Our Faculty Editor we cannot laud too highly; our gratitude can never be commen- surate with the interest he has shown in helping us make this Annual what it is. Now just one final word to our fellow-students: the Editors have given the best that is in them, in order to get out a book which you may be proud of, and one that would do credit to our institution; and if, in after years when turning these pages, they bring back to you pleasant thoughts of the scenes of your difficulties and triumphs, tlien our efforts will not have been in vain.
