ALICE BARNES. Alice is our most studious and observ ant classmate. As Latin is her specialty no doubt in a few years she will be teach- ing unruly youngsters to amo, amas amat. SAMUEL MOWRY. Samuel has walked many miles to Ob- tain his start in the educational world. Altho' Sam is an agriculturist, he is very poetical and we expect him to follow in the footsteps of Robert Burns. HAZEL POORMAN. Hazel receives her mail by the rural free delivery. She is a quiet, serious girl, never neg- lecting her studieseno matter how dis- tasteful. She is very careful about jump- ing at conclusions, and her decisions are unquestionable. ROWENA CLAY. Rowena is the 'langelicesf' one among us-providing there is such a word. VVe can't describe her and do her justice, but if Tennyson were here he could write yards and yards of poetry al wut her. 1

SENIOR CLASS POEM. Still sits our school house by the road, Its doors wide open swinging. Around it still the children play, And loud the bell ringing. XVithin the teachers all are seen- Assistant and Professor, And Principal and all the rest, Some greater and some lesser. Thev are not all the ones we knew Wihen we first came to school here Tho' we'll admit they are as true As any known to rule here. 9 XVe all have failings as we know, XVe do not fear to own them, But we are here to End them ort And light them, not bemoan them. NVQ may think teachers, too, have faults That make them hard, unfeeling, But if we knew their trials all Perhaps there'd be less squealing, Sometimes to see us you would think Our sole aim here was playiii, But in our hearts, for ends in view, The deepest plans we're laying. VVe hope in ages vet to come, The work we do will live, Our influence be for the best, And help to others give. So let us do the best we can, Our talent has been seen- And make our High School proud of us, The Seniors of '15. Alice Barnes, '15
