As narrower grows the earthly chain, The circle widens in the sky, These are our treasures that remain But those are stars that beam on high. —O. W. Holmes

®ljr (Durum WILTON JOHN HUGHES (Joe) 1039 Ridge Row, Scranton, Pa. President of Class, J-2, S-2; Student Council, J-2 lo S 2; Sec¬ retary of Student Council, J-2; Vice-President of Stt dent Council, S-l; President of Student Council, S-2; National Honor Society, J-2 to S-2; President, National Honor Society, S-2; Glee Club, J-2 to S-2; Girard News, J-2 to S-2; News Editor, Girard Nezvs, S-2; President, Journalist Club, S-2; Conference Committee, S-l; Vice-President of Class, 1-1; Lieu¬ tenant, Battalion, S-l to S-2; Editor-in-Chief, The Clarion Staff. Ambition: To work up in one of the Governmental Departments. When one has a pleasant memory, he usually associates it with some distinct person or experience. We shall always see Joe as a symbol of our life at Allen Hall. Willing and able, more than popular, modest—our President is associated zvith these characteristics by those zvho knezv him only slightly, but zee ex¬ press all our sentiments in the zvords, “Hey, Joe!” Dear Classmates: The day we have long waited for has finally dawned upon us; a day which we somehow wish were still many months off. The ten years which we have spent here will some day prove to be the most profitable and most enjoyable of our lives. We will remember that here at Girard our dearest and closest friend¬ ships have developed and that here we have been taught the best in knowledge and the finest principles of character. Let us not forget that our acts in the fu- ture ' jwill not only reflect upon ourselves, but also upon the name which has meant so much to us—Girard. What you have given me in the way of cooperation has been ideal, and I wish to thank you all for it. May your lives be what they by all rights should be — successful. Sincerely, Wilton J. Hughes President of the Class of January 1040
