JUNE, 1921 5 I fu ' SWEDITORIALS ' I ,A V I TO THOSE WE'RE LEAVING The Class of '21 takes this opportunity to say good-bye to the faculty and to the school. VVe have all enjoyed our four years' for morej stay here, so much so that several of our mem- bers have decided to put off leaving till another year. fBe good to them, Juniors, and perhaps they will give yo11 some good advice IJ Our many comradeships here will be missed a great deal, more even than the cheerful aid of our good friends, the teachers, or even their scoldings, which we no doubt deserved. All these things, and the good times we have had, written down in our memories, will be a source of joy to us for many years to come. We hope, oh schoolmates, that you will miss us a little, that you will not let the class of '21 go out entirely from your memories, as we must go from your school. It seems rather hard, at first, to think our school will go right on with- out us, that others will fill the places we have filled, just as well, perhaps better. But we will find other places, outside of school, in which to work and play. We are proud of the record we are leaving behind us, the youngest class but with the high- est scholastic standing, which will now be set before you as a standard to live up to. NVe can not wish your way to be any easier than ours ...-oss - 0+ 0 has been, for hard work is one of the joys of a High School life, but we do hope that your suc- cess will be as complete and happy as ours. So with the best wishes and all encouragement for your struggle, we leave you now to find wider and more varied fields to conquer. This issue of THE ORACLE marks the end of its seventeenth year as the school paper of G. H. S. The retiring Omcmz staff is not a little glad of the fact that it is The End and not The Beginning of the seventeenth year. However, we have all tried to perform our duties to the best of our ability and it is our hope that these efforts have met with the school's approval. For next year's ORAULE staff We have only a few words of advice and wisdom. Try to issue 'PHE TJRAULE not more than one month late each time and follow closely the advice of Miss Yerkes and Mr. Wiggins. They have proven themselves time after time, and we wish to take this opportunity to heartily thank both of them for their efforts in behalf of THE ORACLE. We also wish to thank our contributors, subscribers, and advertisers, for the splendid support which they have given us during the past year and We sincerely hope that they will all favor the next Board of Editors in like manner. ' QEI Hlinete The canyon of the Rio Blanco measures thirty feet from side to side. Looking down between its dark walls, one can see the river gleam like snow and hear the echo of its wild roar. Black rocks that lift themselves from the water look like pebbles, tho they weigh tons. On one side of the canyon lies the land of F11 Verano with a populace of dusky Mexican guitar tl1ru11m1ers. On the other side sofme Americans operate a silver mine. For several months everything had been peaceable, but now a difficulty had arisen. In the last two weeks a lone maurauder had made away with several bags of silver. Once he had been seen by moonlight among the shadows of the alamos, and he had been riding a giant horse of deepest black. On account of his skill- ful riding, the Americans called the man El .linete, or The Horseman. CContinued on Page 343
