1936 % THE TOQT . % 1936 iimmmmimmummimmmmmmimiMimmimm EDITORIAL Reveille’ GRADUATION seems to represent a very definite step in our lives. It is the gateway through which we enter a new world, a world larger in every sense—in its responsibilities, its hopes, its possibili- ties, and its achievements. But let us not forget that as we enter this new world, we will not be magically changed into ideal human beings. Unless we realize this, we shall make the same mistakes in the future that we have made in the past. Wake! Wake up to the fact that it is we, and not the world we are in, that count. We are the ones who must remedy our faults; only thus will we be ready for the future. Wake! Wake up each morning, live each day to the full extent of its experi- ence! Learn to follow the stirring words of A. E. Housman’s “Reveille:” “Wake: the silver dust returning Up the breach of darkness brims, And the ship of sunrise burning . Stands upon the eastern rims. Clay lies still, but blood’s a rover; Breath’s a ware that will not keep; Up, lad, when the journey’s over There'll be time enough to sleep.” Lore Riedel r oc j cs -! Vinnie Mass: “Say, Basil, when you go o er to your girl’s house, how does her father let you know when to leave?” Basil Davis: “He just casually passes through the room with a box of breakfast food.” r o Mrs. Milmoe: “Who originated the first geometric proposition?” Student: “Noah.” Mrs. Milmoe: “How is that?” Student: “He constructed the first arc. ” We understand that a sophmore (Bruce Ellis) was arrested the other day for speeding. “But officer,” said Bruce, “I’m a high school student. ” The officer nonchalantly answered: “ Ignorance is no excuse. ” (T 0 Stranger: “I came here to make an honest living. ” Native: “Go ahead. You won’t have much competition.” Page seven

C Pie DOOt 9 BOARD OF EDUCATION of CANASTOTA HIGH SCHOOL r- o Judge Albert E. Campbell May C. Phillips Charles H. Hoffman Norman L. Stafford Dr. David M. Hoyt Glen F. Bogardus, Clerk NOT every High School is favored with a School Board whose members are as outstanding as is the Board of Canastota High School. Each from a different vocation, the better qualifies the members to judge of the needs of the school. It is of the highest importance that there be unselfish cooperation between the Board of Education of any institution of learning and its student body. The Senior Class of 1936, not only feels that it has had the interest and cooperation of the Board of Education, but the hearty support of the faculty. The spirit of unity and harmony has so characterized the efforts and labors of all as that the year 1936 will witness the largest graduat- ing class in the history of the school. We are not unmindful of the part our school superintendent, Glenn F. Bogard- us, has taken in directing the policies and aims of the school to the end that it has attained such a high standard of efficiency. J. Robertson HISTORY OF CLASS OF 1936 ON a rainy September morning in the year 1932, seventy-five freshmen strolled noisily in C.H.S. Assembly was held, and we of the freshmen class were told to make less noise and sent to our home room. We held a meeting and chose our class officers as follows: President............................Grace Hallagan Vice-President.......................Nancy Bogardus Secretary..................Marian Cardner Treasurer...................Francis Drury Our first event was a picnic at Chitten- ango Falls, where the frankfurts and marshmallows simply decided to walk off by themselves. Many of the ambitious freshmen tested their energy by seeing who could walk around the falls the most number of times. At Christmas we furnished the tree and also held a party. At the party an auction was held, with peanuts as money. The music was simply divine as someone
