Page is THE AMYGDALOID CLASS DAY SALUTATORY MILTON GRAMS For four long years we have worked ac- quiring knowledge, and storing up facts, of which we expect to make use some time in the future. These have been, on the whole, four years full of happiness and fun, although at times tinged with worry and disappointment. During this period of our lives, we have been nurtured and cared for by our teach- ers and parents, who have tried to the best of their ability to guide and teach us so that we may profit by their experiences. They have watched over us lest we commit some rash act or carry out some foolish, whim- sical thought. Now, at last, this period of our life, the period of preparation and growth, ends with the program of this evening. To- night is the last time that we shall be to- gether as a class. Henceforth, we must shift for ourselves, we must think for our- selves, we must act for ourselves. It is now that we must use that knowledge, and apply those facts which we have stored up in solving the problems of life and the world. We must make good for the sake of those people who, for the past four years, have made it possible for us to obtain an education. We must give them a return on their investment, lest we be guilty of lack of appreciation. Perhaps, to you, this night is one of the many class nights which you have attend- ed: to our mothers and fathers, this night is one full of joy and parental prideg per- haps, to others, it recalls another class night in which they participated. But to us. the graduating class, this night is of the utmost importance, indeed a night of nights in our life, since it marks our departure, out of school life into life's school. Dear Parents and Friends: It has been my privilege and honor to welcome you this evening. VVe hope that you will enjoy our program, and will enter into the spirit of the occasion, the spirit of youth and hope. CLASS HISTORY GAGE R. COOPER There entered Houghton High School in the fall of 1919 a group of students known as the class of 1923-but more commonly called the Freshmen. Mr. Willerton was principal at that time. When he addressed us on our first day of attendance, we found his words more encouraging than those of the upper elassmen. With his statement in mind that we would be freshmen for only a year if we worked hard, we went to our studies. At our first class meeting, Floyd Burr was elected to lead us through that first year when we most needed the active guid- ance he was most capable of giving. Dur- ing the year we were represented in football and basketball by a few players, and the winner of the sub-district declamatory con-
