difficulties will surround us. Whatever pursuits we may enter upon we must expect enemies, competitors, and misfortunes. But let us not allow this to cause our efforts to be failures. We cannot escape difficulties. They await us on every pleasure, every path and every pursuit. Will trouble be any excuse tor us to neglect opportunities when they come? If we do not neglect our oppor tunities when difficulties come, we invigorate our souls and become more strong. Then let us face the world with courage, and every time we have mastered a difficulty, feel we have won a victory on the pathway of our life. Consequently, Fellow Classmates, I leave the thought of this stanza as my final message to you: Before our feet the ways divide: One path leads up to heights sublime; Downward the other slopes, where bide The refuse and the wrecks of Time. Choose theny nor falter at the liney 0 choose the nobler path and Climb. Friends, we, the class of 1922, do most humbly thank you for coming and trust that you may have every cause to long remember with a thrill of pleasure the associations of this hour. But may we, too, ask you for your lenity and kindly sympathy, and crave from each of you the warm hand shake and the cordial smile, that will assure us of your joy at bidding us welcome, as we journey upon our various pathways which interwind among yours.

Kmma Laberdy Hii.ua DbWitt Ardis Baker Gladys Momany Miss Skinner (Class Officer) Florence Rosenberg Rolland Moody Donald Clark Delight Morrow JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Our third year of High School is nearly gone, Are we happy? We’ll say we’re not. Senior Themes are becoming pleasures, And the rest of the work is what? es, we’ve lost some classmates, Two have left our ranks; But Delight has filled one empty chair And helps us with our pranks. Good times? Sure, we have those too, Even though we’re always so rushed, For two in the morning might seem late to you But to Juniors? Oh; no, not for us. Toward the first of the year we organized, And Donald so tall and merry. We elected him for our President, For we were sure his voice would carry. For Vice-president we chose Ardis, Although she isn’t so tall, But to all the meetings she might not attend, For her mind is too full of Basketball. Then knowing how well Delight likes to write, And money is Emma’s pleasure, We thought we’d give them jobs they like, So we elected them Secretary and Treasurer. You must surely know by this time, All this work is not for nothing, To be Seniors is now our highest aim, So we’re working hard and—puffing. A. B.— ’23 Twrnty-four .
