12 ALFALFA BLOSSOMS Zllumni The end has come, as come it mast To all things: in these sweet spring days The teacher and scholar trust Their parting feet to separate ways. They partg but in the years to be, Shall pleasant memories cling to each, As shells bear inward from the sea, The murmur of the 'rythmic beach. So the heart of every loyal Alumnus often turns for inspiration to the Alma Mater from which he has been graduated. Memories, both sad and sweet, cling about the institution which is Alma Mater to us. Such memories of trials and sorrows, gladness and happy days passed in our school, dear old C. H. S., rise often to us, although far from home we mav be. The influence of the lives and efforts of our teachers and the asso- ciation of fellow students, that have inspired and encouraged us during the years of our school life, will not cease as we pass into a busy world. -It matters not into what environment, condition or circumstance we may be thrown, the recollection of the strong faces of our teachers will come to us, faces upon which were written strength of purpose and traces of service and sacrifice. In memory we shall hear their voices in encour- agement, kindness or rebuke. Emerson says: I am a part of all I have ever seen. So everything passing our eyes and the people we meet from day to day will always im- press and influence us in some way. This influence will perhaps change the entire course of our future life, but still our school days are the blocks on which we build. Considering all things it is only right and natural that our hearts should always be with the school where we spent four happy and carefree years of our youth. But, Life is realg life is earnest, and we must not tarry on the threshold of this new life stretching out before us, however pleasant these memory dreams are, but must go forth with the same spirit of earnest en- deavor to attain worthy results in our separate fields of action. We dare not linger, for The voice of tomorrow is calling us. The Alumni Association of C. H. S. consists of seven classes. The Alumni was started in 1908 with two graduates. By the addition of six other classes the membership reaches seventy. Each is filling his niche in life. Sixteen are in institutions of higher learningg eighteen are school teachers, three professors, one deaconessg nine homekeepersg one Pullman conductorg one grocery clerk, three far- mers, four bank clerksg one Y. M. C. A. Secretary, two Business College studentsg one chauffeurg two telephone exchange girls. And as the years go by, other classes will be added to the ranks of Alumni and increase the band of well-wishers for old C. H. S. FERN CRUM '14.
