The pages are quickly turned, the end is almost in sight, 1903 has entered its last year. The new honors were borne with great dignity, it had been a long hard struggle, but 'filled with sweet memories of the other years 3 victory was almost won and they could feel proud. Words fail to describe the Senior picnic, the junior picnic was voted a grand success, but nothing can be said that will give you the faintest idea of the pleasures of the Senior picnicg memory alone can bring it back to its participants. The vacation time passed quickly, but none too quickly for the Seniors, they were eager for the last battles. October 19, 1902, was Senior Pennsylvania Day. The essays showed that the fair sex of 1903 possessed great literary ability and could win laurels just as easily as the boys. The last victory in foot-ball was wo11 by IQO3 on November 27, 1902. It was the game for the championship, the score was 1 1-5 favor of the Seniors. In the first game of the Freshmen year, victory was recorded for 1903 and victory is recorded for the last game as students of the High School. The days of Auld Lang Syne were recalled on December 25, 1902. It was the class re-union tl1e first of its kind ever held, many of its members had dropped by the wayside or left school. Eat, drink and be merry was in truth carried out by the merry revellers, and like the Epicureans of old, they thought life held only pleasure and enjoyment, the hours were danced away until the early morning warned them of the approaching of the new day. Night's candles are burnt out, and jocund day Stands tiptoe on the misty mountain top. f This re-union is long past but memory still recalls it as one of the brightest pages of 1903 Pleasure and misfortune, victory and defeat alike, enter into the pages of history. Time, that impartial judge, will soon look upon the history of 1903, its true worth will be searched for, and remembered, its mistakes will be forgotteng as the class goes forth into the world 'l Mehr Licht H will be its cry, and as the years go by only the echo will come back as the last farewell of the CLASS OF 1903. So the multitude goes, like the flower or the Weed That Withers away to let others succeed, So the multitude comes, even those we behold, To repeat every tale that has often been told. MARY CLECKNER. 40
