AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT Once again we feel that we must make one more effort to express publicly our thanks to Lewis S. Gordon, Jr., for his earnest efforts on our behalf. Through difficulties and troubles, he was our guiding star, and the fervent appreciation of the Class of Nineteen Twenty-Two goes to him as we depart from the school we loved so well. 16

Joseph f. McCaffrey Our successes in the sport- ing ' line are due to the fin- ished coaching ability of this man. Starting his first year as a member of our faculty, he has made many friends and future years are sure to spell success for him. The best of luck is his in every venture lie may under- take. MARTHA LINTON Almost everyone in the Senior class have spent some very pleasant hours with Miss Linton during our stay in Clinton High. The won- derful work accomplished by the orchestra and the Glee Club, and the complete suc- cess of the Operetta, illus- trates what a capable and talented teacher can do. 15

FROM THE CLASS BOOK SCRIBES Hey, all you good-looking Seniors, all you clever people, just a second. We would have u few words with you. You haven’t got time? Oh, you have. That’s better. AVe did not realize you were so busy, and it is certainly very good of you to allow us a part of your time. Now, when you read your class book, if there’s anything written in it that you do not like, forget about it. AVhat of it if you are given -a. few slams by the editors? Whatever you do, don’t kick up a fuss or get sore, because everything is meant to make the book a success. So take everything right, (but don’t get caught taking it). As we said, don’t get mad, for in days to come when your hair is turning gray, when you’re rocking the baby to sleep, or if your better half has just slipped a flatiron at you, (or for the other sex, if your hubby has just thrown your new-made flap- jacks out the window) turn to your class book and what you are angry with now, will then be your cause to smile. So buck up and smile. Amu know life cannot be all sun- shine, but with this little book to turn to, why it can be one substantial smile. Remember, “ laugh and the world laughs with you.” We’ve tried to make the book a success, and, if it isn’t satisfactory to you, why we’re not worrying. So, how do you like that? That’s all we have to say. We thank you for the time you have taken to hear our apology and now we shall close, because “that’s all there is, there ain’t no more.” 17
