We must not forget to mention, too, that it was in this year that our basket ball team won the eup at Grove City. e returned again as Seniors. This year of all years, seemed to have passed the quickest. We held many social affair’s. W'e passed through a record basket ball season, winning the much coveted Grove City cup for the second time in as many years. Literary work was re-established in the High School. Many plays were given, each of which was a decided success. Our Senior boys organized a dancing club and held many dances. On the whole our Senior year was the most active year of our High School career. Xow we are about to leave your halls, dear Alma Mater, where we spent tour years of joyous High School life. Justly we can look back and say that we gave our best to thee. When we leave thee, we will take with us sacred memories which in later life shall lead us on to success. So verily we say, “Farewell, Farrell High, farewell dear friends and teachers, farewell to thee, our Alma Mater.” G. L. ’19. Twenty-one
