E LIZABETH FLOYD Class History The year of 1912-13 marks the beginning of the educational climb of a band of about eighty eager students, struggling toward the hilltop of success. Through the passing years, each new teacher gave an inspiration, until now, at last, the summit of the first hill has been reached. This class, gaining and losing, reached the seventh grade with about seventy students, two years' later only about fifty were presentg now the Senior class is a perfect group of forty. Some have entered other schools, some have drifted away. Margaret Fosdick, Robert Fitzpatrick, Isabella Parker, and J. W. Burton chose the more adventuresome path of matrimony. We shall never forget our untiring efforts in the classroom, in the Debating, Science, French, Glee, and Dramatic Clubs. Nor shall we forget the declama- tory contest in which Kathleen Montgomery won a silver loving cup, which will remain in the old school, as will the flag presented by this class, as memories of our presence. In athletics, too, we have played our part. Our girls, Evans, Wray, Wooldridge, Rains, and Durham, and our boys, Delong, Goggin, Ervin, Southwood, and Lester, have proved their mettle in all the Blue and White sports. The Danville School News, published by the Senior Staff, has been a success, and each later edition proved to be better than the previous ones. In social activities our class has done its part. The parties and picnics remain as delightful occasions in our memories. The Junior-Senior banquet of 1924 was a perfect success in. every way, and the pleasures of that evening mingle still in our thoughts with the goodbyes of the Seniors, who from that day could be only visitors in the dear old school thereafter. In spite of tests and examinations and all the perils of high school life, we have come to the closing days of this period of our education. As we reach the top of the hill and glance back into the paths by which we have come here, we drop a silent tear for the old days, and their comradeships. RAYMOND LESTER, Class Htstortan Nmeteen
