S 4 7 . ii , ggjlwiw 'v , ff? i T , wi- ai ' 557 if ' T' if-y i f ll ymmgll g Q Salutatory The early morning with its crimson sky and singing birds inspired the Greeks and Romans of ancient times to originate the beautiful myth of Aurora, the goddess of the dawn. Aurora was the sister of Apollo, the Sun-god, and mother of Lucifer, the morning-star. In the Trojan war, Achilles slew her mortal son, and in the evening she went to his side to weep and lament his death. The heaven became dark with clouds and all nature mourned for the offspring of the Dawn. Aurora remains inconsolableg her tears still flow and may be seen at early morn as the dew-drops on the grass. The poet paints Aurora as a fair virgin who wears a star on her forehead and carries a torch in her hand. Enveloped in her rich cloak of violet hue, she leaves her home before the coming of the day. She touches the moun- tain-tops with rose and saffron and opens the gates of heaven for the chariot of Apollo. The Greeks and Romans were so impressed by the rosy-tinted dawn that they deified it. We do not believe in their myths-yet poets and artists have been moved by the inspiring beauty of the early day since time immemorial. XYho is not revived and refreshed to behold the glories of the night dissolving themselves into the glories of the dawn? The stars go to sleep, and the scenery of the heavens is changed by unseen hands. The sky becomes a soft grayg the gray gradually turns to crim- son and yellowg the sun bursts in a flood of light over the horizon and transforms the dewy tear-drops of flower and tree into rubies and diamonds. Each person goes to his duties with happy anticipation of what the new day may bring. Even though on the previous night Despair may have seemed the master, with the rising sun, Hope is again the mistress of all God's creatures. The winter dawn, with its keen, cold atmos- phere, makes us feel that no task is too dif- ficult for us to accomplish itg while the early summer morn delights our hearts with the beauties and wonders of field and forest and stirs our minds to nobler thoughts. On a june dawn, All the world is making music. The ibrooks tinkle and the breezes whistle. The birds are singing and the frogs in the marshes pipe away bravely. VVhat messages a June dawn has for usl Four years ago was the auspicious dawn- ing of a new day for the class of 1911. On that bright, glorious morning. as we entered upon our high school life, Aurora had the out- look of ouricoming years painted with the gay- est colors of her palette. At times our tasks seemed difhcult and clouds darkened our way,
