THE SENIOR FLICKER PROLOGUE When a book brings pleasure to even one person, its author may justly feel a glow of pride. Whether the pleasure is transitory or lasting is of no consequence, for moments of laughter and happy recollection come all too seldom to most of us. We seniors, whose yearbook this Flicker is, do not anticipate being remembered be- cause of it ; its composition will not assure our place in the annals of the high school. But we enjoy it, and we hope that you also are diverted by it. This Flicker is an integral, personal part of our class. It has been written by us, for us. If our work pleases you we are doubly rewarded, but in any event the thrills of one year and the triumphs of four years are permanently recorded in this, our class-book. So long as we keep our Flickers those experiences are our possessions. And if in a few years our ambitions seem naive and our prophecy ironic in its absurdity, we can not wonder. There are few things in life which are im- mutable.
