vT was four years ago last September when we came into the Chaffee High School, twenty-five happy, care tree Freshies. We scarcely knew what to do as we stood before the assembled body of higher students who laughed at our lack of courage. During our first year we outgrew our shyness, and greenness, that characterizes Freshmen and did not have to succumb to the tortures of the upper classmen. We entered in our second year of school as Sophisticated Sophomores, but with the loss of ten members: six, through matrimony and four through quest of' fortune, and with the addition of five there were twenty members. During this year we rolled through the tunnels of Caesar and Science, and rounded the dark and perilous curves of Geometry and Medeival History, but we saw the bright lights of the Junior year welcoming us. And with the loss of seven and the gain of one member, we rolled safely into our Junior year. We started this year with fourteen students who were precise and willing to work. After drifting this year over Junior Sea with “EV’ and very little worry, we were ready for the last year. During our fourth year we added four to the number of our class. And we were enabled by our knowledge and past experience to make fair progress, and now we have completed our very enjoyable journey. The billows of examina- tion questions have at times almost overwhelmed us, but we have not faced any gale which we were unable to overcome. During our four years in C. Hi. S. we have gained much knowledge and ex- perience which will be useful to us in our future years. Now our voyage of high school is at an end, but the voyage of real life has pist begun.
