llinrrwnrh HAT, in the future, we may review with satisfaction our four years in the halls of Canton High School, and to .keep green the traditions of our school, we, the Class of 1934, have recorded here some aspects of those years. At the commencement of this undertaking, we set for ourselves high standards of excellence. Clredit for whatever measure of success we have had in adhering to those standards is due the friends and advisers who have so willingly contributed their valuable time and services. To them, our sincere M Erhiratinn O George V. Smith-just George to seven- teen years of Canton boys-than whom we have never known a truer friend or a more loyal rooter, in grateful appreciation of his friendship and good-humored services, the Class of 1934 dedicate this seventh Algonquin , gratitude.

CLASS POEM 'Tis four short years since we set sail Upon our ocean blue, Manned by Captain Williams, And the faculty, his crew. These years have been most happy ones, Both toil and joy combined. But now 'tis time to disernbark, To leave our ship behind. And now that we have reached the shore, The goal we sought is won. Many others stretch on before, For life has but begun. But through the years that are to come, We'll live these four again, For the memories will linger, And the friendships will remain. -Frances Howard. Class Motto- Gras ingens iterabimus aequor -Horace Class Colors-Blue and Gold Class Flower-Rose CLASS SONG fTune: When We Build a Little Homej Now we're leaving C. H. S. We are sad to have to go, But we feel we're taking something That is really quite worth while. Every single little dream That we've cherished through the years Has come true to us, the seniors, Now we're leaving C. H. S. We've been happy, oh so happy, But now we find it's time to leave. It's been our school, and we loved it, Now you must carry on. And with every step we're taking, We are going further on, All our troubles are not over, Though we're leaving Canton High. It's a school of great advantage, And we've had its benefit, Now we're thanking all you teachers For your understanding bit. The road of life is right before us And we've got to work our way, But the thoughts of this old schoolhouse Will be with us every day. We've had a good time, but a hard time Now w-e're free to p-ick our wayg Life's before us-but we're ready, This is all that we can say. We can struggle up the pathway Of the fame that is to come, Then we'll thank our dear old high school For the 'help it gave us then. -Marla Snyder and Aldine Stevens
