JANUARY ' 24 CLASS POEM O years, j ' ou have vanished like shadows, Like ghosts you have glided away. And the light that was yours has faded . nd darkened before the da} . You have faded and fled and left us. And only now and then In the weird wild night of memory Your faces glimmer again. We follow y(.iu will-o ' -the-wisp like Across the meadow of time; But your homes are hid from the eye of heaven, And you ' re gone e ' er the sun gins climb. (Jh, tell us, here is }our dwelling And safe abiding place, When }-our life in the world is over. And run is your mortal race? Are you Ijuried in shad(jwy ca erns Where the thought of struggle and pain Comes only in far-spent thunder Like the ri])])le of pattering rain ? vSorrow o ' er my heart has won mastery. That I should see no more as now I see ( )ld E. H. S. full of faces dear to me, And so familiar, and a kind of awe Possesses me pondering, If again I draw Xear this loved place, ' twill be a stranger ' s home, ; nd I as from a different world will come. Classmates, to you I need not say farewell ; We bid farewell to pleasant years now past, )l light-souled H. S. life we toll the knell, Jiut not of friendship; let us still hold fast To Twenty-four, though scattered by time ' s I last, In lo ' e united — good is every state; Take heart; go forth; obedience con(|uers fate! — Erma Super.

' - 1 w EARL SMITH Oh, this learning, what a thing it IS. uur eli. mi.st is Earl, who is always seen (Iring up something for rheniistry. He is another one of those rare persons who will help one out when in a tight pinch. I know for I was in his Physics class. RUTH POYSER— •■Rufus She has an eye that can speak though her tongue were silent. Ruth is always ready to start something. She puts life into the dead at our cUis.s parties. Ruth likes nice dates and nice times. She is destined for a great future, she wishes to become a costume de- signer or a director in domestic arts. Ruth seems to he going pretty steady just now, so we would advise Domestic Science in place of the Domestic Art. CHARLES LOCKTON— Chuck Know more than others if you can, but do not tell them so. President; A ice-President. Chuck is one of those rare persons who always comes to class meeting. He is never seen at parties hut is probably occiipied at dancing and other interests. ERMA SUPER— Erm Victory belongs to the most persevering. IIA President; IIB Chairman of Social Committee; IB Vice-Presi- dent; ID Treasurer; Member of Announcement Committee, Annual Xominating Committee, on Annual Staff. By the looks of the number of offices Erm has held, you would think she was sure some hustler. Well, she was and still is and most likely always will be. You should have taken a glance at her report card. It looks like a Penmanship practice in E ' s. Erma likes almost everything and her ambitions are to become a private secretary of some government official. EDWARD CHANDLER— Ed A power for good among his fellows. IC. IB and lA Social Committee; IIB President; Fair Committee; Annual Staff. Here we have the famous funmaker of our class. Ever a loyal supporter in everything our class does. His favorite pastime is telling jfikes at class parties. He particularly delights in telling the joke about the dollar and ten cents. But we have never found out the answer to that one. Ed says his ambition is to get more sleep. My. arf-n ' t he and Lewis Arnold a good pair? Pag ' ; T enty-six
