jgl l The 19 12 Seq uelle Senior History The lime is fast apjiroacliinL; wIk-ii the (lass of i()i ' will he hut a nieiiiDry ; a inciiinrN- wliich shall iu ' cr he fdr i itteii. Kind reader, take a glance with nie in the far distant past when the Class of nju made its appearance nn Septemher 13, i )ou. as t; ' reen and iinimpnsint; Jiininrs. I ' liit this verdancy gradually disappeared when we organized our class, elected officers and chose oiir colors, red and white, under which we resolved to conquer all thinj s. The L;Teat event of mir first year was the Junior promenade in the Spring;-. W ' e were the first to have an outdoor program, wdiich jiroved a grand success. We see again this class and. lo, they have blossomed out from our bashful Juniors to studious Midillers. The Middle Class for the fir,si time in the history of tlie School gave a class plaw entitled The Register. In the class basket liall games we u])held the honor of the class and the School. In both the Junior ami Middle year the Class of ii)i2 took a worthy part in the campus pageant at Commenccement time. Then in the Fall of njii we entered that glorious year, the Senior year, at whose end we wished to see our efforts crowned with success. Thus far the greatest event in our history has been the Senior Class play, The Rivals, on Thanksgiving evening, a date which will long be remembered. Shortly afterwards our players produced it in Knox, wdiere it was received with great enthusiasm. In the inter-class basket ball games, the Senior boys and girls car- ried away the honors both against the Middlers and Juniors. After these weeks of tireless efifort, the Seniors relax their nerves and apply themselves diligently to their studies to jirepare for the great finale. This brings us u[) to the present day. The worst and best is yet to come. We have aimed to do ourselves justice in all phases of school life and to reflect credit on those under wdiose care we have been. We often hear it said that history rejjcats itself, but we doubt if any other class will leave the glorious record that we are leaving. And now we go out into the field of life, wdiere a future brighter than the past awaits us and where we will strive to overcome difficulties and come out successful. But we are eager and ready to meet the demands and success and glorious triumph are inevitable. Pa e Trrenh ' -Si ' .r

The 19 12 Se q u e lie Class Poem OUR ( )UK IS DONE. Our wnrk is dnnc, bill imt ilarknrss Xor night c.!o vc see in imr way. But instead a hri,L;ht nim-nin;; is ilawnint; Of a lony ami a ])nisi)cnius clay. We see bright dreams of the future (ileani through the mist el the years, And a feeling of sadness conu-s o ' er us .Mingled with doubts and with fears. A feeling of pride and affection In wliich iiain has a trace. At leaving our Alma Mater. With an unknown world to face. Come, bates, unroll us your pages, Some leaves from the future display To give us the strength and the courage To do what may lie in our way. Mot pictures of German or Latin. Not of angles or men. For they cannot help remiml us (H the days at C. S. X. For as just one strain of music Will to us a song suggest. So one picture of our school days To our mind recalls the rest. Not that we wish to forget thee, ( )ur Normal and our class. But what hardships will we conquer If we linger in the past? But some scenes of well done duty Whose call we have tried to obey, To do as we learned in our school days And honor the truth alway. Then bright may the l-ates make our future. And the cares which worry us now Will float on the breeze of summer Or melt as the winter ' s snow. Ptise Tweuty-Eighl
