The members have felt rewarded for their work by the many pleasures which they have enjoyed. The accomplishments of the Class of '39 were numerous and will always be viewed with deep admiration by all. Their schol- astic career will go down in the record books as one of commenda- tory achievement. At present their goal is resting 'high on a hilltopn. It will indeed be a goal for us as Juniors to shoot at--high schol- astic records and outstanding ath- letic feats. To accomplish a spirit as exhibited by them, is undoubtedly one that will take considerable labor and worry. On behalf of the Junior Class, I hereby pledge myself to further the fine ideals that you have so nebly established, and shall endeavor to fill the niche which you as graduates shall va- cate scholastically and in the hearts of the faculty.

Your minds today are under the spell of two great forces. The one is memory. The other is hope 0 Q From this day en, we occupy a different position and live a dif- ferent life. I NTime fliesu. The years of separation will flow between each one of you as an ever widening flood. It will be spanned only by a common memory and a mutual re- gard. Mates! I started with you four years ago. and so may I talk. It is my wish that the days be full of what each nature craves, and I trust that each one of you WBC to the last the lord Of all that man can call his own.u ,ID p X 61,1-:JJL X . I Russell, tetlcr. WHAT COMES NEXT? Soon we shall mount the stops and receive what is usually a com- mon piece of paper. Though but a piece of printed paper it may bo, it represents a few years of hard work and study. This period in our life will soon be over. What comes next? Undoubtedly you have asked yourself this question. To some of us graduation will be a basis of more study and fur- ther educationg to some, more un- fortunate, it is the start in life We are no longer children and now we must take on responsibil- ities. We must work hard that we might accomplish something to show these years in Canton High School were not spent in vain. As to what comes next--more hard work and hard work brings success. and that is ultimately our goal. RobcrtfM..Northrup SO LONG A 'typical editorial around graduation always reads like a book of praises. each member being so praised. As we are the seniors to be graduated, we know that we are not ideal. As to stubborness. our ranks are literally lined with the Uderndest, orniestn people. We do not contend that we are the best class: we are, however. GHG of the best. In all seriousness. the Class of '39 will miss Canton High. and. the members of the class hope that the school will also miss them. To the Juniors coming up. may I say: Bc seniors all the way: bo proud of the same fact and den't be afraid to let people know that you are seniors. To Mr. Stetlcr and Miss Bunyan, your kind consid- eration has afforded inumcrablc pleasures otherwise quite imposs- ible. To the rest of the faculty, thanks! Los Packard

As your reporter rominisced last night a long galaxy of memories came trooping one by one. The memories of the faculty of Canton High School for the. year 1938-59. I wrote these memories down and to you Seniors who are graduating I herewith give you these memories so that you too in the years to come may reread this page and re- capture the personality of those who have labored so hard to make your graduation possible. Like a slow moving film the picture of September and the be- ginning of school rolls past my eyes and there I saw new faces of the faculty. There was Miss Mc Laren, Miss Watts, Miss Monroe, and Miss Motyer. The picture fad- ed and I saw the school year start then another picture seem to throw itself before my eyes, and I saw Mr. Jaffin leave because of ill- ness. Treading softly in his place strode Mr. Worthington. The scene changed and before me there marched a proud and strutting father-there in the dream I could see Mr. Lewis beaming at the joy of a new son. Treading closely came crowded scenes so rapid that I was able to get only a glancing view of the past happenings--Miss Thomas granted a leave of absence to attend State College--The ap- pearance of Dan Cupid and the long list of hearts pierced by his ar- rows-Mr. and Mrs.Watts--Mr.Pruyno --Mr. Houseknecht--Miss McGillbra. and the latest of his victims Miss Matelski. The first of April and the loss from our midst of Mrs. Fulton--another new face appears, Miss Katherine Langley to fill Miss Thomas' position. The pic- ture grew dim and it seemed for a moment as though my Reveries of faculty were at an end when sud- denly there flashed before my eyes a picture that produced a tinge of regret. It was the picture of Mr. Lewis resigning from the faculty. Following closely came another picture of Miss Monroe and her resignation. Again in quick sue-- cession I saw Mr. Livezey coaching another championship football tems I saw Miss McGillvra coaching one of the best Senior Plays ever pro- duced hereg I saw Mr. Lloyd direc- ting the Operetta for which he composed the music. Then in less splurge of light and brilliancy I saw the entire faculty walking with slow steps into the gymnasium they were clad in their full aca- demic robes and I was upon the faces of each and particularly on the faces of Miss Barnes, Mrs. Westgate and Miss Bunyan a look of Joy and happiness-a look which seemed to say: HI had my share in making graduation possible for each of these boys and girls.u Then as the dream faded there seemed to be a voice--a voice speaking for the faculty to the graduating seniors--a voice which seem to say Good Luck and God Bless You!
