How well we remember the first stretch of our trip, our freshman year! We may have been green but we were at least recognized. With such boys as Strain and Gower fighting for us we contributed our share to the fields of honor. We came through it all a happier and wiser bunch. Then came our eighthfgrade year! Which was full of excitement for every one. We began to be known now, and felt much larger. We shown very well in athletics but not as good as we really wanted to. Then last but by far not the least came the dear old Senior year. Again we have shown up very well in athletics. Almost half of the boys and girls who ref ceived basket ball letters were from the senior class. In fact, our class has been well represented in all school activities. h We leave our dear old school with the best wishes to future graduates and with the feeling that in the three short years of our Junior High School career we have taken a great step toward our ideal, a bigger and better life. BERDENIA THOMAS.

But these pupils we leave behind us, In your watch and word, we leave them See if ever you can teach them, Mysteries of science and language, See that never Doubt rnolests them, Never lack for faith and hoping, Never want for inspiration, In this dear old Alma Mater. Then they spake to all the pupils, Bade farewell to all Low Sevens, Bade farewell to all the others, Spoke persuading, spake in this wise: We are going, O dear students, On a long and distant journey Many rules and many lessons Will be learned and then forgotten Ere we come again to see you. But the teachers we leave behind us S' Listen to their words of wisdom, Listen to the truth they teach you, For the Board has sent them to you From the land of broad experience.
