The old school was alive with spizerinctuni . The school spirit was something wonderful. It was a living, throbbing, contagious something which made the school quiver with loyalty and joy. Now you may well ask what caused the school to awaken from its Rip Yan XYinkle stage. The class of l2I's push, punch, and pepg paid coaches, and successful athletics answer this question. Mountains could be moved and worlds halted with the combination we had last year. lt was great and should continue next year. Mr. Strum and Bliss Heighway, we thank you. S F w H S It may be well to say something about the Senior Play. lt is well worth writing about, for never did a Senior class attempt such a difhcult play. Xlilef stones was a great play, admirably written and admirably acted. lt had a plot. and its success depended not on clever phrases but on clever acting. The coach is not to be forgotten either, for in Miss Suter the cast had an able and efficient director who knew what she wanted and how to get what she wanted. Mile- stones was a real dramatic effort and it set a standard which will be hard to maintain. 11' w it S Aside from settinff ' . g tl new standard in athletics, dramatics l' activities, the ,215 have also set a nex' Q ' has never be ' ' iterarv 'ind st w stand'11'd in l en appioach l l , 5 ucial . sc iolarshim Q ' 1 ' ec vy former 'l' ' uture classes ' ' 1, a standtid l L asses and o to ittain lih l . .' wiich .. . ne which will l 1 t . e 11321 cla .'.i has the rl' va edictorian, l' ' ' Th it dithcult for ss 1.

liiALrr6r,g, ..eifitvM-Q! and received our first diplomas, we thought we were in the eighth heaven of delight, but our wonderful ecstacies of delectation were sadly undermined when we entered the portals of the F. VV. H. S. We looked for the elevator and became Freshmeng we began to think we knw somthing and became Sophomoresg we knew we knew something and became Juniors, and finally we got the faculty to help us run the school and became Seniors. If we were in the eighth heaven of delight when we graduated from the grade schools, we were in at least the millionth when we passed out of our dear old high school. It was wonderful! We, the high and mighty Seniors, had completed our four years of advanced study and were ready to face the world. The rest of this editorial is entirely presumption, but it is very possible that many of us will fall from the height of heights to the depth of depths when we become college Freshmen. We will learn how to part our hair in the college style and bcome Sophc-norsg we will adopt college mannerisms and become Juniors and finally we will learn about all there is to know and become Seniors. Aboout this time our feelings will be similar to those which we had when we received our high school diplomas. They will only be more exaggerated. This period of ourilife will be the one in which we receive the greatest shock for our next step will be to embark on the stormy sea of life. Here again we will start as lowly Freshmen and will advance according to our respective abilities. As a closing word: May every member of the IQZI graduating class of the Fort Wayne High School receive a generous measure of health and good fortune and may every solitary person speedily become a Senior in the great game of life. . 11- To Poets CArletta Schmuck, y22j When one is weary and longing, And his sad heart seeks for rest, He loves to muse o'er the memories Of the poets who knew Life best. Who loved with the hearts of lovers, And lightened the world when they smiled, VVho wrote with the minds of masters And prayed with the soul of a child. Oh, would we all were poets, Inspired by so deep a truth, That we might make our mortal lives An eternal poem of youth. And might so learn to live and love, From the pattern of our dream, That we to God might dedicate Our lives-as a lovely theme! Ptlgrf TIFGITPP
