mint ifefffe Time flies. Four years ago we entered the halls of dear it seems as though it were only yesterday. Our entrance as commonplace as any other class's entrance, yet when we seem so to us. We all remember how we would wonder if we class, and if we were supposed to go to activity period or yet was not old Highland, and into high school look back it does were in the right not. How we ever blundered through the maze that was our freshman year we will never know, but we do know that as we entered our sophomore year it was with a firmer step and with a much lighter heart. No longer were we ngreen freshies.n Yes, it is true that we were sometimes addressed as freshmen, but our retort was given quickly and with a flashing eye, nWe are sophomores.n - It was during our sophomore year that we moved into our present school house. Horrors! We would once more have to be embarrassed by getting in the wrong class at the right hour.' This time our fears were ungrounded, as we soon became adjusted to the new routine. Our sophomore year passed as did our freshman year and our high school career was half over. We were juniors almost before we realized it. What a memorable year! For the first time in the schocl's history we defeated Seaman on the gridiron. Will we ever forget the post-game bonfire? This was the first year that we ever presented a class play. We all remem- ber nThe Charm Schooln and the remarkable success it met with. Our junior year was filled with social functions, one following another in rapid succession, and the crowning event of the year, the junior-senior prom, was here and gone before we knew it. Yes, our junior year was a whirlwind of activities--activi- ties that made the year seem like the passing of a moment. We entered upon the threshold of our senior year all too soon. Our senior year! The last and perhaps the best of all our years of school. Do you know--perhaps you do--that twelve of the seniors who will be graduated this year enrolled in the first grade together and have since then gone through all twelve years together? Yes, it is a long time to be comrades together. We all remember how not so many years ago we wished we were out of school. Now the time has come and we wish we had it all to do over again. We've done our work and had our fun at Highland and we've all grown to love her. We'll always have that same peculiar feeling when we hear the school song. We don't want to leave Highland and yet we must do so. Though we realize that we are now ready to delve into a still larger realm and that life is really just beginning, it will be hard to. keep a tear from the eye as we bid dear old Highland High adieu.
