The Senior Cists History—( Continued) However, the vacancy left by Mr. Simpson was well filled by the promotion of Miss Cope, who was our teacher when we were Freshmen, to the position of head of the English Department. Not only in scholarship, literary ability, and numbers do we excel, but also in athletics. This prominent part of the School activities has always been well represented by many of our Class, who have gained honor for themselves, and for Easton High. Thus have we spent our time while within the portals of Easton High. Our leaving causes us regret, yet we also feel a sense of joy at having finished our course. Whatever may happen in the future, let us remember our motto— Ducemus, alii sequantur —and let us live it wherever we may be. Historian. m

Senior Class History HE end has come. The time has arrived to once more board the train of progress, and hurry to the next stopping place on life's schedule. As Seniors we have struggled and fought through our course of four years, and now we stand upon the threshold of this stage of develop- ment, ready to push forward towards the goal of success. These four years which we have passed here have been short indeed. It seems as it were but yesterday that we entered as Freshmen, and to-day we are preparing to go out, each to his and her place in the world. The events of four years ago arc not dim and hazy, but loom up before us with surprising clearness. Our four years have been filled with many ini| OTtant events. Lack of space forbids the recital of many of these. Every one knows that we began as Freshmen, 166 in number: that we presented the School with a picture of Cornwallis’ Surrender at Yorktown, in our Sopho- more year; and that as Juniors we had a most novel celebration on Arbor Day, and before that held our Class meeting in spite of the Seniors. As Seniors, we have by means of 112th Day, the Bazaar, the Historical Readings, Class Day and Commencement, easily upheld our reputation as an unusual Class. One of the misfortunes that befell the High School in our Junior year was the resignation of Mr. Simpson as head of the English Department. His withdrawal at this time was a distinct loss to the Class, as well as to the School, for he was held in high esteem by all. '3
