CHESTER HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL, NINETEEN SIXTEEN Hiatnrg nf the (Class of HUG President Leon Bagshaw Vice President Elizabeth Eggleston S we, members of the class of Nine- teen Sixteen, finish our work and look back upon the four years of toil, if one may speak of such pleasant and happy work as toil, spent in the Chester High School, it can be only with a feeling of happy sadness that we leave our Alma Mater. “Of all sad words of tongue or pen, The saddest are these: It might have been.” It is true Sixteen might have been more illus- trious and have done greater things if she had but tried harder; but it can none the less truly be said that no laxly of young men and women ever entered Chester High with greater determ- ination and higher ambitions than did Sixteen. It has also been shown that no determinations were ever so fully realized and convictions so faithfully pursued as in the case of Sixteen. It is by varied incidents that we all remember Secretary Mary Melville Treasurer A. Watson Tongue the ninth of September. 1912. Freshmen were never so scarce before. Fntil the first of November, 1912. most of us had as fine a sense of direction in the corridors of Chester High as we would have had in the “catacombs.” On that evening we. with our parents, were entertained by the Seniors. All spent a most enjoyable evening. Henceforth we felt ourselves a real part and factor of the school and its work. Sixteen’s first achievement and one that augured well for the future of the class along scholastic lines was the winning of the prize for the highest girl student’s record by a member of our class. Not only in scholastics, but in ath- letics, too. the first sign of Sixteen’s future supremacy was displayed in the winning of second place in the annual cross country run by a Sixteen man. For a Freshman to place in such a race was a hitherto unheard of feat. Following tlx custom inaugurated by the Fifteen
