H l C lx U R Y l, O U Senior Class History The world is but a sphere: its children merely architects. They endlessly design their hopes and in accordance build their characters: yet only those with strong foundations stand. We, as architects of future lives, designed, now four years hence, the struc- ture we have built. We wisely chose as cornerstones four solid rocks, whose names themselves gave reassurance. These stones-Latin. algebra. English, and science. proved to form a firm foundation which could easily endure the jolts and scars of life. lt took one year to deftly shape and strongly form this, our foundation, but we considered none of these, our precious moments, lost. The second year we found much easier, because we knew just what to do. We attempted to fulfill no new design but skillfully developed that which we had formerly begun. When we realized that our structure soon would be half-built. we became unjustly proud and boastfully reviewed our work for those following in our steps. We reached the end of our successful second year with strong determination to uphold the standards which had thus far guided well the forming of our characters, The third year brought our structure to a soaring height. which would indeed have caused the loss of much its firmness had not skilled architects well- guided every move. Our many planned activities gave our building a more pleasing effect, which added to the nearness of its perfection. Our school paper, The Red Tornado. added new experience: our Junior-Senior Theatre Party gave grace and elegance to our fast developing pattern. The end of our third year found us unsubdued and willing to exert more effort toward a worthwhile completion of this phase of our lives. Our fourth year and-our last-held new glories for our band of striving architects. They skillfully gained the touch of dignity which smoothed the surface that had heretofore looked uncouth and incomplete. Our ambitions and desires added an unforeseen splendor to our nearly completed structure. We were satisfied. As we gazed at four years' work, we observed that our character was a graceful. lofty structure looming against the sky of Success. MARY BETH KUHN. Class Historian. Page Thirteen IQS7
