PORTER, HOWARD Always found playing pranks, his spare time to beguile, His most constant companion, an innocent smile, SUNBERG, ELLEN In spite of all the bright and handsome boys this class can show, She needs must tum to juniors to find herself a beau. TESTNIAN, VIRGINIA I love my books and classmates, and all the High School joys, But more than all of these I love those creatures they call boys. SWITZER, AGNES Seems to think boys were a dreadful mistake, A rest from her studies, scarce ever will take. STEARNS, MARJORIE The teachers have at sometimes feared, of voice she'd been forsaken For it, as well as she, are as quiet as they make 'em. THARP, FLOYD A gridiron hero well known in the state, But for football C-'I 'tis said would have quit in 'O8. VEIT, ERNEST Seems to be indifferent to boys and girls alike, Has a smile for most occasions, be they gloomy ones or bright.

Senior Class SO O N our Senior days and our school life will be behind us. Each of us will choose a different path and venture out into the world to seize the op- portunities it offers and accomplish our work in the best possible manner. The school has formed its opinion of us and decided just what we have meant to it. We, in tum, must decide what the school has done for us. l'm sure we have all enjoyed every one of our years in High School. We have worked devotedly and played in the same spirit. The details of our school life are too numerous to mention here. But for fear we might become too con- ceited in regard to our famous class, we here give the opinions of others concem- ing us, and follow the advice of the poet: O, wad some power the giftie gie us, To see oursels as ithers see us! especially the faculty. The name Senior indicates, as very properly it should, the position the class has made for itself in the High School. For the Seniors are the stay and dependence of their teachers, and an invaluable aid to their work, by a habit of always being on the right side of all questions. They are elder brothers and sisters of the other classes, a little inclined to snub the pretensions of the juniors, but submitting with kindly patience to the devotion and admiration of Sophomores and Freshman, while they cheer these little ones on their hard way, by pointing them to the fact that they, too, may some day be Seniors. Oh, distinctly l remember how they pondered long and weary Over statesmen and explorers long since dead, There were bills, wars, treaties, current events quite often Bringing forth discussions serious, mirth provoking, From the two and two score lads and lassies Of the noblest, nerviest of all classes. Now the object aimed and sought for By our dear departed heroes was to conquer, love and honor. But the object of our Seniors was to firmly clinch the facts of history And they did it, yes-they did it, with the spirit and the dash Characteristic of the naughty class.
