EDITORIAL As lias heen the custom of former graduating classes we have at- tempted to publish the Senior issue of the “Lyre. We shall let the pub- lic judge whether or not we have succeeded. We wish to thank the Board of Education for this beautiful build- ing with its fine auditorium and gymnasium, without which the fine orchestra and basketball teams, both of which have brought much credit to our school, would have been impossible. It is with heavy hearts and tear-dimmed eyes that we glance back over the pleasant days of the past. But with still heavier hearts that we come to a realization that our good times in this building have at last drawn to a close, and that we must bid farewell to members of the faculty and fellow students, all of whom we have loved and highly respected. Our class is the last one which has not had the benefit of the entire four years in this new building. In this issue of the “Lyre” we have tried to he humorous without intentionally hurting anyone's feelings. If we have offended anyone we stand ready at any time to make apologies. We leave our best wishes for all possible success of the future graduating classes. JOHN CLARK, Editor-In-Chief. THE SENIOR PLAY Lucile Weston is working her way through college; she longs to go to the college dances, but has no dress. She meets John Prince, who calls her his Cinderella Girl. Two of the girls have played a prank on the boys and are afraid of the police. Mary, who wants to help Lucile, gets her lover, Pat Quinn, to pretend he's u detective. The girls are scared and try to bribe him. Mary tells him to demand Isabel’s party dress as a bribe. She gives the dress to Lucile, who wears it to the dance. She loses her slippers and John helps her find them. Isabel recognizes her dress. Lucile confesses. John claims his Cinderella girl and all ends happily.

THE CLASS OF 1926 In September, 1922, when we entered B. H. S. as Freshmen, it seemed to us that 1926, the year when we would be acknowledged leaders of the school would never come. But indeed, that time has come alto- gether too quickly and now that our high school days are at an end, wo begin to feel a certain sense of responsibility, knowing that our future success depends upon the course we follow from now on and the reputa- tion we make for ourselves. We are proud and filled with joy to know 'hat we have reached our goal, graduation; still, we regret that the good times we have had within the walls of B. H. S. are over. The merits of this class will, we hope, never be forgotten. Members of this class have brought much honor to themselves and to the whole school. We have the honor of being also the largest, class that has yet graduated from B. H. S. and in our own opinion, we are the best. Our motto, Crescat Scientia (May knowledge increase) will always be with us. THE CLASS OF 1927 This is the first class that can boast of having spent all four years of high school in this beautiful new building. Having had the training af- forded by the Junior High School, they will doubtless be a class of which wfe may be proud. We wish them luck. SOPHOMORES This is the largest class of our present Senior High School. There is a large amount of intelligence and talent in this class and we are sure that they will be worthy graduates after they have received the training we have had. Good luck to them! E.
