Calhoun, M.A. Principal of Denton High School Remember me as one tv ho tried To make your uorld a bit more wide; As one who yearned to smooth the hills To flowing plains, and bridge the rills; As one who labored joyfully To loose for you the best in me. Remember me as one who sought To give you wings—white wings of thought A. O. Calhoun Someone has said that the most congested, timeworn street in the world is not Broadway or Fifth Avenue. The street upon which the greatest human traffic jams are to be found is Rut Street.” It is a broad, level, easy stretch which leads to oblivion. If you go through today just as you did yesterday, without new plans, thoughts, ambitions, and if you are satisfied with doing as you did last week or last month, you are pounding the pavement of Rut Street,” a thoroughfare which leads to nowhere. If you would avoid this street to nowhere, decide where you wish to go. Profit by past experiences; dream dreams; see visions; but above all, work hard. Work diligently. Do thoroughly and with a willing heart what you find to do hour by hour, week by week, and year by year. Then on some fine day you will find that you are where you wished to be. The sentiment expressed by Walter Adams in his little poem, TO MY PUPILS,” expresses my wish to you as you leave old D. H. S. for your life’s journey.

The First Class In 1886 when the first class was graduated from Denton High School, there were twenty-four members of the class. Our class, which marks the Golden Celebration of that class, is composed of one hundred and twenty-five members. We could not express a higher ambition than to remain as loyal to Denton High School as these lads and lassies of fifty years ago have. CLASS OFFICERS FIRST TERM President . . .
