IN FAREWELL MANY smiles have parted our lips and many tears have wet our eyes during our stay at Glenville, and now we come to the inevitable end, the parting of the ways. Three years have passed since we arrived here, years of mingled joy and sadness, but years that have been beautiful to us, and years we shall never forget. One does not realize what high school means until the time to leave, graduation, comes a-knocking. It is then one reflects upon the things that have passed in those bountiful, overflowing years. How well you remember your first class dance, or how thrilled you were at that first football game. Those moments have passed, but they are not dead to us,- far from that, they shall live for a lifetime engraved in our fond memories. Deep is our appreciation for all the excellent teaching and aid we have received from the Glenville faculty. Their work, I am sure, has not been in vain, for, even though only a very few of us may attain great success, the rest of us have, I am sure, benefited tremendously through their fine work and to them go our heartiest thanks and our sincerest appreciation. And finally, you, dear Glenville, what can we say to you? What we really want to say is that we shall never forget you, no, not any part of you. For you are now part of us,- you are in our very blood. How could we forget you? Long may you remain to give your services to posterity, and long may your ivy-covered structure be embedded in the heart of every student that passes through your ample corridors. But now we have passed through those corridors and are about to pass out of those golden portals which lead to life, a life that you have prepared us for and which we now face unafraid. Once more, then, farewell to thee.

DEDICATION TO MISS HELEN HUMPHREYS our adviser and good friend, whose unceasing efforts for our welfare and whose genial personality have been our guiding light and inspiration, we, the class of January nineteen hundred thirty-six, in appreciative remembrance do dedicate this annual. TO the class of January nineteen hundred thirty-six the principal of Glen-ville High School extends greetings. You have completed another phase of your education. To some, this means an intermediate step,- to others, the end of education. You will discover two choices in life: either your satisfactions will open up before you or they will close in upon you. You are in a living world where no one is permitted to stand still. Outwardly a life may be successful while within its satisfactions are shriveling and closing in. After all, if the life you live within yourselves fails to satisfy, no outward success can be a compensation.
