You might not expect it but this four-act play has been something strikingly dreadful, since the rise of the curtain in 1925. But At Last! How grand that word Senior sounds to our ears. We have almost reached the goal whichvwe have been striving so hard to attain. When the curtain rose on the first act in 1925 it was a horrible one. The cast was composed of green, ignorant and bashful boys and girls who knew nothing in the line of knowledge. Each one soon knew what part he was to play. As time rolled on the majority acted their part splendidly, but others fell by the way before the act was over. The second act displayed our Sophomore work. Knowing a little more this time than before. We thought we knew it all, however we later learned that there was plenty we didn't know. The way was very rough in this act, but most of us reached the end safe. The next important feature on the stage was marked Junior. This third act was proceeding very successfully until French and Geometry stepped before the most of us. They were not as dreadful after we became acquainted with them as we thought, so we soon captured them and hurried on. During the third act of the Junior feature a very great sorrow came to us. One of our most dearly beloved classmates and actors was taken from us- the parting was sad, but time can never erase his picture and works from our minds. The last act started briskly with a long hoped for triumph, Seniors Everyone was in a rush and hurry to reach the end. There he or she was expecting a good and successful beginning. During this play some of the actors have developed into good athletes. Among these are: Louise Donaldson, Louise Gay, Ruth Eddleman, Catherine Hogan, Harold Blackwell, Joe Morris, Fred Brooks and D. A. Pirkle. We have also developed many literary leaders. Some have become Musicians. We are looking forward to a bright and prosperous future. The end being in sight we wish to say a word before we go. We, the Class of Twenty-Nine, have done our best to uphold the standards of dear ole Chamblee Hi and be loyal to our Motto. Our minds will always be happy of this in future years. All the pleasant and tender memories of the school faculty, and classmates we will use to drive our blues away and bring us chasing back to Chamblee. ' I, For some this has been a long play, for others, short. Some call it a comedy, others class it with tragedies. But the cast will agree that we hope the audience has enjoyed watching it as much as we have enjoyed playing it, and that we will have many curtain calls in the future. -RUTH EDDLEMAN, Historian. so i 19 2 9 Fmt Page Tu enty taco
