DEP If BX li MEN F ourleen THE SENIOR'S PARE- WELL We have finished all our schooling, VVe are through with all our fooling, Like a football team, at last we've reached our goal, Like a ship in harbor hidden, After stormy seas are ridden, Where occasionally we struck a snag or goal. Up the steep incline we've Hivvered, QPlease excuse the slang deliveredl VVhile the yellow slips and D grades raged or stormed. For our patient loving teachers Then become most haughty preachers When the late or flunking habit we had formed. In the days when we were newer To this school-and maybe fewer, We would try to get away with lots of stuff. But we found to our displeasure That it was a risky measure, As some one was always sure to call our bluff. VVhen at times we were caught sleeping In Spanish or Bookkeeping, Then the teacher always woke us shout- ing, Say, If you must sleep, do it nightly ' ,For in school, it is unsightly. Don't expect to sleep all night, and half the day. When we'd pass a note quite slyly, Though our faces were all smiley, VVe were sure to be discovered in the act. And the ones who had offended VVere severely reprehended, But they usually got out by using tact. And in spite of all endeavor, VVe could never, never, never Get away with anything against the rules. Though we worked it like a master, It was sure to bring disaster And to make us out to be a bunch of fools. VVell, the journey is completed

And we stand here undefeated For the hard and lengthy lessons now are o'er. We are through with preparation, VVe have reached our destination, And we need not fret about it anymore. -REVISED BY LEOTA SMITH. I SENIOR CLASS HISTORY-A RETROSPECT The summer of 1940 found George Dingle, a well known graduate of Citrus '22, at the old game-queening the latest social arrival, Miss Barbara Crow, of Cali- fornia. The summer moon was kind. It sheened and shadowed the tropical shore of Honolulu. A California girl was still supreme. True, Dingle had left a trail of girls from Azusa to this far distant land. So you're a Citrus man, too? What class, Mr. Dingle? asked Barbara. Why, don't you know the celebrated class of '22 ? was Dingle's quick response. Isn't it strange I've heard so little of that class ? teased the innocent Barbara. VVell-we have sent a fair number through college successfully. Some of us have traveled around over this old world and landed some pretty good jobs, even if you didn't hear much about us back there, rejoined the rich Hawaiian merchant, feeling rather proud of himself. But maybe you can remember some of our old luck, he continued. We were the class that had all that vacation our 'Freshie' year. Oh, yes, I remember, the 'Hu' year, added Barbara. Yes, worse luck! It cut all our social events that year in spite of the fact that we elected llflivie lkiiller as our president, and had as class teachers lVIr. Smith and lVIiss Ryle. - . Miss Ryle was the famous toe dancer, wasn't she ? inquired Barbara. , Yes, we had both her and Mir. Smith for class teachers our 'Sophie' year and 'Nlivie' was re-elected president. Where did you go for your class picnic ? We went to Fairmount Park and our class party was held at 'Milly' Ashby's, George explained. Barbara smiled at her companion's enthusiasm. Our Junior year, we kept thnigs going with Glenn White as president and llfliss Wood and lVIr. Herdeg as able assistants. We won the Junior-Senior Debate. Then we set a record with our formal banquet for the seniors at the Azusa club house. Then came your crowning year, anticipated Barbara, a delightful listener. Yes, I suppose you have seen our annual-not so bad? We had some worthy football stars, too-Dell, Linder, and the much-quarreled-over Jimmie. Mfrs. Tal- bert and lVIr. Herdeg watched over Glenn, our president, and he, in turn, guided our strenuous course that year. In the spring, the juniors QI believe your sister was in that class?D gave us a lovely banquet. I wonder if you remember that long ago ? This was intended as' a subtle compliment to his pretty young companion and as a reminder, too, perhaps, that he, lVIr. Dingle, was much more mature and experi- enced than she. Well, replied Barbara, knitting her brows in attempt to recall, I ran across an old program the day we sailed and that has refreshed my memory. The program was that of your Senior Play, Peg-o-lX'Iy-Heart, and all I can remember about it is that I was just recovering from chicken pox and had to stay home. Too bad you didn't see that play, lVIiss Barbara, because Yours Truly had quite a--er-well, that is to say, one of the leading parts. Lois, Clarinda and Eliz- abeth lVIiller were the stars, of course, but lldills, Mivy and I were moons, and Fifteen M l JI
