Before any process was evolved L for its preservation, history was kept alive by tradition. It teaches the earthly reward that awaits valor and victory, or courage and cowardice. But, it is my purpose tonight to recount to you the his- tory of the Class of '24, After many tedious years of application, a harvest of vast possibilities was sown in the year of 1920 by thirty- two green laborers who were called the Freshmen of C. H. S. During that First season the thirty-two laborers enjoyed all privileges that ever attend Freshmeng the reaping of the harvest seemed to us far distant. Although we were eager its coming, we did not miss the pleasures that came our way. Then in our Sophomore year, under the intiuence of the coalition of our instructors and our own efforts, the cultiva- tion of the harvest progressed, although our numbers had been increased to thirty-nine. XVe felt our destiny to be marked out and we were striving to eliminate the tares, in order to fulfill it. Not fearing the outcome, but living up to the ideals set before usg not forgetting the immediate duties while planning for the harvest. VVe found on entering the third year that to thirty-six of our number was left to us the completion of the work we had started together. Although with fewer numbers, our steadfastness was not diminished. VVe felt the first throb- bings of the desire to realize the fulhlling of our efforts. VVe sensed the nearing of the end, and so persevered through the remaining months. The sands in the hour-glass of Father Time seemed to trickle through faster. NN'e found ourselves in our Senior Year, with mixed emotions we realized the magnitude of our undertaking, more so, as we could remember the seasons that had passed. They have passed, but the effect can not be obliterated. X-Ve could now discern clearly, not only the harvest, but also what its culmination meant to us. The reward of all of our struggling, for We have won through our vigorous endeavors a fair heritage and it is ours to make or mar. The knowledge acquired and associated with interest- ing details will be indefinitely retained. The times that have tried our souls are over, the harvest is reaped. VVe stand today upon the threshold of newly-made ambitions which will carry us into the struggle of the World around us. It may carry ns into the world of letters or into the limitless employments of the business life. The dangers are more subtle and menacing, but if our ideals be worth the struggle they need not affright ns. Undaunted we await what' lies before us in the untried fields of life, never forgetting the painstaking labor of our faculty who have freely given us such valuable instruction. VVe, the Class of '24, have not set our ideal too high, we have done our duty and an abund- ant harvest is ours. -EVELYN A.

GORDON LICTCI-IER TIXYLOR, Notary Public. iv 'Q rupberg ci f F N THE Spring of 1934 I went on a lishing trip which I will not i Kay. 5 v - PQSQU soon forget, not on account of the number of hsh caught, but for an entirely different reason. Thereby hangs the story which I shall relate. I had linished my lunch and was lying on the cool grass, S55 JQX watching a white cloud in the sky, which was cloudless except for this one beautiful cloud. After looking for a while at this cloud it turned into the letters, Class of '24. Presently a fairy touched my shoulder and told me that if I would come with him he would show me what my former classmates were doing. I followed him without hesitation. Soon we were sailing through the sky, using the beautiful cloud as an airship. ' It was to my surprise that the cloud stopped over the Postotiice building in VVashington, D. C. As we entered the building I was amazed to see there our former class president, Sparky Bailey, who was making quite a name for him- self as Assistant Postmaster General. After speaking to him for several minutes we sailed on, until we reached New York harbor, where the largest ship I had ever seen was at anchor. As I looked over the side I saw the name, The Coviwzgton. I asked a man standing near the name of the commander. He replied that Admiral Delaney commanded the ship, and that he was approaching us at that minute. Then I recognized old Bo, our Bell hop. VVe then moved up Broadway. As we were passing the stores I noticed the most beautiful picture I had ever seen in my life. I went inside to ask the name of the artist. I inquired of a beautiful young lady about this, and as she was talking I realized that I had heard that voice somewhere before and it dawned upon me about this time that it was none other than Charlotte Smith. As the time was passing rapidly, we sailed through the sky without a stop until Buffalo was reached. VVe entered the door of a large and magnificent- looking building, At the desk inside the door was seated our little Wallace Harris. He informed us that he was owner and general manager of a group of one hundred and one stores located all over the country. The next place we stopped was in Pittsburgh before the laboratories of the VVestinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company. As we entered the door we noticed on the door the following: Experimental Chemist-W'alter T. Owens. On opening the door I recognized- Ted seated at the desk, very busy. We could not linger very long at any place, because our time was limited and there were many more of the Old Students to account for. This time we sailed in the direction of Richmond. The Virginia Legislature was in session and we decided to visit the meeting. XVhen we- entered the door we heard the speaker say that the next speaker on the program would be Representative Carl V. Harris of Alleghany County, who would speak on the subject, 'ilietter Roads in Alle- ghany County. VV e listened spellbound to his talk, which lasted about twenty minutes. VVhen it was over I went up to congratulate Sommer on his line speech. He then invited us to take dinner with him, for there were several interesting things that he would like to tell me about our former classmates. ' NV e entered a cafeteria near the Capitol Square, and who met us at the door and welcomed us in, except Anna Keller, the owner of this place. NVhile we were eating Sooner told me of several more of the class. Harry Owens was the man- ager of The Hotel Richmond, and owned the controlling stock in it. Harold Armentrout was traveling for the Covington Electric Curling-Iron Company, and was a great salesman because his orders far outnumbered the output of the factory. Miriam Barnwell was head nurse at St. Elizabetlfs Hospital. After we finished eating I bade Sooner good-by and we headed for Cov- ington, the old home town. W'hen we arrivedqwe did not recognize the place, because it was about three times as large as it used to be. W'e stopped before a handsome edifice on Maple Avenue, which we found out later was the New Epis- copal Church. As we entered the door I met my old friend and partner in busi- ness, Fish Taylor. l-Ie told me that he was rector of this church and next in line for Bishop. He would not consent for me to leave until I had seen his wife and home QI didn't know he was marriedj. Then we stepped next door to the rectory where Dora Gleason opened the door, then Fish told me that she had changed her name. They had been married about three months. They invited me to stay and talk with them a while. In our talk they told me of the following: Dot Crawford was running a candy shop on Main Street, and her specialty was Fridge Iiila Watts was teaching school at old C. H. S. and was fast becoming the typical i'Old Maid School Teacher. QVV e remember very well how she hated the boys.j Flivve1'l' Foard held the position of head chemist at the mill, and had just discovered a new way to make home-brew without the loss of life. ' As we were talking I happened to glance out of the window and notice that Irvine's great three-ring circus would visit town that night. The name attracted my attention, so we all decided to go. VVhen we went to the ticket box to get our tickets a man with a little black mustache was standing by, then I recognized my old friend Bob Irving. He told us that he was owner of the circus, and if we wanted to walk around a little he would tell us something more about our old classmates and show us a few of them. . The lirst place we visited was in the elephant tent. Here we saw Louis Dame carrying water for the elephants. NN e entered the main tent just in time to see Mary Jackson riding bareback. VV hen she saw us she became so excited that she fell off of the horse and ran to meet us. VVe talked for several minutes with Bob and Mary and learned of several more of our classmates. Elizabeth was helping a fellow in Clifton Forge named Smith along in life, and was very happy. VVe remember how popular that name had been in faculty circles in '24. Lucy, quiet little vamp that she had always been, was teaching school, but not for long, because she had decided to change her name. The addition Mc--. Evelyn Pedigo had taken the position as community service worker at Low Moor, and was doing a splendid work. VVe didn't realize that Evelyn was so athletically inclined. Virginia McCarthy was teaching domestic science at C. H. S. They said she was ready to enter upon the sea of matrimony. Ruby Harmon was head clerk of the Young Men's Shop of Covington. She sold more articles to the young men than any other clerk in Covington be- cause her attractive personality and good looks were her great assets, as in the days of school. Gertrude Tanner was the assistant of Dr. Pullemout, the leading dentist of Covington. Her ambition to become a dentist was about to be realized. N elle Matheny was married and living at Alleghany, having the time of her life with the young men and the Fire VVater. Mary Conner was selling insurance at VVhite Sulphur, and also owned an agency where they would assure you of getting a wife. It was said to be a very proiitable business. Reba, our class poet, was still following the old line, writing poetry, but this time in the form of love letters. Ora was the owner of the finest cafe in Covington, and was becoming very popular with the male population on account of her delicious eats. Lola Mae had followed the example of a good many of the other girls and had settled down at Barber, She always did like Barber, or some one up there. Ella, last but not least, the hardest working and the quietest one of the class, was one of our representatives in Congress. Her dream had come true. About this time something stung me on the nose and I awoke. It had been only a dream, but the most wonderful one I had ever had. I had lost about an hour of fishing, but had traced all of my classmates. Here's to my old class of '24. May they all fvrosjvcr. -JAMES A.

For the last eight years outsiders popularly called ringers have been members of the school team. The Student Body under the guidance of the principal decided to cut loose from this practice, and allow only bona fide members of High School who were making passing grades on subjects as re- quired by the Athletic League to play. Therefore, the scores, although not as favorable as they have been at times before, really were very good when this is taken in consideration. The success obtained was in a part, and that not a small one, to the school spirit and the hearty sup- port of the Student Body. GORDON L. TAYLOR . . . ELIZABETH COVER ....

The teams they played against were all stronger than they were, but in all games the old C. H. S. lighting spirit was present. The only time that the team played on a Hoof was in the Five games which they played. This year rela- tions were formed with several new schools. Our team did very well in scoring sixteen points on Charlottesville, the '24 State Champions. ' Prospects for next year look very good. The only man lost is Captain Payne.

At that time the score stood two to one in Covingtoifs favor with the strong aggregation from Buena Vista holding the unit score. Although many substitutes were tried in the next game with Ashwoocl High School the final count stood nine to three in our favor. , This augurs an exceptionally iine showing for the team this year, whose future record must be told by the annual of the class of '25, as we now go to press.

Love and trust, you taught me, dear, VVhen all the world seemed dreary, And you, so merry, kind and true, Brought out the best that's in me. Life and fate forced our hands apart, And yet we're still, dear, joined in heart. 0911 the nun NVhen shades of night have fallen, And the stars begin to peep From beneath the darkened curtain Wfhere they've been all day asleep. The moon comes out in all its splendor, Lighting earth with a mystic glow That rests the weary souls and minds Of mortals here below. Lovers walk beneath her light Entranced with new-found joyg Qld men see its brightening gleam, And wish for the purity of a boy. O, wondrous work of Nature's hand A light and guide for a dreary land. burials KNO NHXJ HE Social Editor of Puffs and Patches is 19549 sorry that our school socials are so few in number. On account of the size of our High School Auditorium it is impossible to have a gg, wndwgh great quantity of socials, but we are proud to say that they excel in quality. On Friday evening in November, the students of C. H. S., chaperoned by the Faculty, and with the help of Miss Ella Thomas, of the Community Service League, enter- tained the football team of A. C. l. Refreshments were served at an early hour, because our visitors left for home on an early train. The visiting team was composed of a number 'bf Shieks and Cake-eaters. So of course it was natural for the girls, especially Bug Revercomb, Phyllis Pedigo, and Dot Crawford to lament when the boys de- parted. The Domestic Science Class, a new department recently added to our school, charmed and delighted the.Town Coun- cil by serving them a delightful dinner in the High School Library. The way to a man's heart is through his stom- ach. The large table was decorated very pleasingly with attractive vases of Howers. The dinner was served by the expert waitresses, Florence Miller and Margaret Agnor. Wlhen the Council adjourned they voted the dinner a huge success. Glaring lights, streaming colors, jazz, jazz, jazzllllll It all shows the spirit of C. H. S. when on the night of De- cember fourteenth they trooped unto the Carnival. Fancy costumes, confetti, and kisses all contributed to the effect, while gliding snake-charmers presided over tortuous instru- ments. The Siamese Twins attached by a' safety-pin, clowns, vagabonds, and Yama-Yama girls trailed around in holiday comradeship. All good things have to come to an end, so Miss Jones and Mr. Costen began chasing the crowd away about eleven o'clock. ' On january 26, 1924, the girls of C. H. S. took advan- tage of the fact that this is Leap Year. They gave the boys a party which caused much excitement. The evening passed away quickly, and soon the girls began scrapping over which boy they should take home. As a result of the evening, several proposals and acceptances were reported. The Boosters Club scheduled a Phund Phest for April ll, 1924. Fancy Howers, a lolli-pop in the heart of each, candy, ice-cream, and doughnuts were the menu. Visitors from Clifton Forge and V. P. l. added spice and pep to the evening. At eleven o'clock the High School Orchestra played Home Sweet Home and the crowd dispersed. The crowning glory of the year from a Senior's point of view was the lovely party so graciously given them by their under-class-mates at an early date in June.
