Then, as we advanced we looked forward to Eighth Grace Commencement Time, and when that came we considered ourselves real young men and women. But now we realize that we were mistaken; that even today as our High School Commencement draws nearer we are but ycung irn a- tured folk—soon to face the trials of life. Our eve? watch- ful guardians at home will not be with us always to shield rw from the many temptations d which we aie so often unocr- scious. The Baccalaureate, C’ ass Day, and Commencement pro- grams each means a sincere farewell to our high school ca- reer. And far more important to os is the fact that with each farewell is extended a welcome farther into the world. In other words, that we shall each be giv- en the opportunity to accom- plish the aims and the plans for the future. We shall be given the “great life’s test,” and it is up to each of us to make good— to be a credit to our school and to our community L. C. K. ’23. ORION PROGRAM PLEASES The Orion program which was given May 4th, for the purpose of raising funds for the «Live Wire was one of the best enter- tainments of the year. The two main features of the program were the Freshman play, “Men Not Wanted,” and the Fashion Show. The cast of the play was made up entirely of Freshmen girls and they ad played their parts unusually well. With such a good begin- ning the members of our class are wondering what they will do when they b.e c o m e Seniors Those who took part in the Freshman play are: Olive Mace, Helen Novak, Gladys Mussel- man, Olga Berger, Mamie De- zort, Marian Beenish, Thelma Vasboe, Bertha Evans. The Fashion Show of course was a scream and Monsieur de P cuche with his troupe of charming models made ns won- derful a “hit” as they did their first visit with us. Mon- sieur de Rouche and his troupe were introduced by June Madi- son. Idolph Milsten took the part of a French modiste ex- ceedingly well. Those in his troupe were Francis Hilla, Ar- thur Zion, Sam Dunbar, Lestev Bush, “Humbert Pearce, Edward Seal. Ralph Micken. Robert Micken, William Yunck, George Dezc t Paul Hpvshev and Har- old Plowman. The honors of the cecasion went to the bride, Paul Hershey. Besides several instrumental solos, there was a vocal duet bv Othelia Bach and Helen Novak, and a pianoloeue bv Hazel Strohl. Evelvn Dewing furnish- ed a splendid reading, “Anne of Green Gables,” and the violin trio which consisted of Evelvn Dewing, Harry Campbell and Charles Smith was well given. The closing number of the uro- gram was a. selection nlaved by the orchestra. J. M. ’23. SUNSHINE AND SHADOW These correlative words repre- sent two of the most interesting correlates of life. Without the sunshine we would not have the shadow, and without the shadow we would not appreciate the sun- shine. It is the sunlight that causes any object to cast a shad- ow. As jlong as objects cas? their shadows on the earth be- neath we are not conscious of them; but when they obliterate the sun’s light we realize both of these correlates. If everything w ere sunlight how little we would appreciate it. It would become a common thing. But when it is taken from us for a time, we appre- ciate its merits through its ab- sence. In life sunshine and shadow play a similar part. The sunshine of life we call happi- ness, the shadow sorrow or dis- appointment. In a child’s life all is sunshine, so he does not rea1- ize his happiness. The disan- Tmht ents and sorrows f life cause us to merit so highly the snatches cf happiness as we grow older. Thus we never real- ize the sunshine until the shaw- ows fall. B. V. O. ’23. THE CRIMSON CARNATION There’s a flower so fragrant, so bril- liant of hue. An emblem of beauty and perfectness too; It is ever a symbol to brighten our way, Refreshing our courage, our hopes day by day. And the red of its petals our va'or de- clares Midst the green of its foliage, a set- ting so rare. May we ever abide by the sign of its hue And live lives that are ever courage- ous and true. —D. B. 23. Clarence—I thought you could keep a secret. Kathryn—Well, I kept it for a iveek. Do you think I’m a cold storage plant?

LIVE WIRE Page 10 OUR SCHOOL Our school is a uniformity of four nomogeneous parts. These similar components we call class- es and each is an essential mem- ber of the whole. Unless these factors function in unison, there will be lack of harmony. For- tunately in the Cut Bank High school the four classes work to- gether for the good of the school In campaign drives of any kind the '.lass spirit is strong enough to produce a good school spirit. By combatting each other in friendly but earnest strife the school is helped along. The Freshman class is not similar to the usual rule. They are most angelic but bright. The excellent work they have pro- duced will suffice to prove this. In debates they stepped out to the forefront, showing how ener- getic and accomplished they are. We certainly know there is a fu- ture in store for the Freshman Class of 1923. In the Senior play we needed dramatic ability. The Sopho- mores boldly stepped up and of- fered what they had. By the Seniors this was most heartily appreciated. The initiative and originality of this little class is to be commended. Never before has a class shown such ability along these lines as has our Sophomore Class. The Junior year in high school should be one’s happiest year, tor if they have been able to get that far there should be no trou- ble in getting farther. Carefree, jolly, and talented are the char- acteristics of the Junior Class in Cut Bank. Look at the success they had in their carnival! Not only in material receipts but the jolly good time every one had. Isn’t that what the Junior Class is supposed to be? Now the Senior Class. Her accompMshments have been many, but to dwell upon them to any length would be to acknowl- edge conceit. She wishes to say that she has enjoyed her four years in the High School, her friendships with the other class- es, and the due respect they, as ower classmen have shown her as the highest upper-class. But her place is now no more. Truly, we the Class cf 1923, can say the members cf our school are to be commended; and we wish each of them as happy a career aswe have enjoyed. B. V. 0. ’23. Senior Banquet and Prom The Senior Banquet and Prom was given Friday, May 18. The banquet began at 7:00 o’clock and was held in the domestic science room. Those nresent were the Seniors, their friends, the school board, and their wives and the High School Faculty. The Domestic Science room was beautifully decorated in the Sen- ior Colors, crimson and black, an dthe tables were decorated with the crimson carnation. The o1ope cn' s and favors also car- ried out the color scheme. The toastmaster, Ralph Micken, gave the address of welcome which was responded to by the Senior Class President, June Madison. Other toasts were: “Sandwich- es,” by Miss Conmey; “Pickles,” Walter Halvorson; “Coffee,” My Peterson; “Cocktail,” Mr. Yrmck “Desert.” Mr. Bakeman. The music was furnished bv Evelvu Dewing and added much to the eniovment of the banquet. The delicious four-course dinner was served by Mrs. Long. After the banquet, the toast- master led the way to the ball room where the Alumni, the teachers, and the rest of the high school studejnts were al- ready assembled. The ball room too was beautifully decorated in crimson and black. One novel feature of the decorations was the balloons which played in the air as the dancers glided over the floor to the strains of the Davis orchestra. The patrons and patronesses were the par- ents of the Seniors. The Seniors very much enjoy- ed the prom and banquet and wish to thank the High School and Faculty for the good time afforded them. J.
