We feel that We must make the speech for there are so many of our achievements that would oth- erwise go unrecorded. Then. too, we wish to give our successors some advice, that may enable them to shun pitfalls into which we have unxvarily stepped. In membership our class numbers about sixty-tive. A finer lot of graduates you have never seen,-pardon us for saying' it. We certainly out-strip any of the former classes in many respects. First, we have more married men than any other class has ever had. This adds wisdom and pru- dence to our class. Second, we have more men who 'want to get married. than any

Che ilnbcg I7 class of former years, s sto say nothing about the women. ln these two respects at least we know we are paramount. For strength of character our class cannot be eflualed. Our class meetings have proven this. Nevertheless we have a class spirit which the lower sections will do well to note. Think of it! One of the boys went so far as to offer to pitch hay for two days this summer to pay for his class pin. fearing' he might destroy the class unity in not buying' one. Harmony is our watcliword. We spent only two days deciding' where we should have our pictures taken, W'e have heard that former classes have talren a weelf to decide this all-important question. Still. some people declare the world is not growing better. W'e looli back with pride on our school record. We have certainly 'come up through great trihulationf' but our trials have made our success the sweeter. Our struggle for freedom against many limitations has been long' and hard, but for the benelit ol' our friends. the lower sections. we wish to say that the prize is worth the effort. Even oni economics teacher confesses he never saw such a lot of papers or a lot of such papers. as we handed in on examination day. Our worlf in economics has been very successful. YVe are sure of this. When it comes to giving statistics concerning' wheat and other products. we cannot be beaten. Then we have all learneil to manipulate the teaching' process to such a marked degree that some of us actually walk by the tive formal steps. Our power is felt even by the faculty. for our president remarked one day that Section .X ran the school. Hut with all our successes our heads have not been turned. ilve are very modest indeed. But in truth our jesting' covers up a far deeper feeling' than we care to show. -Xl- though we have longed to try our pinions in the wide. wide world. still as the time draws near when we shall leave 0LlI'1l1lIlll lIlIlfl'l'. our joy is mingled with sorrow. Our school life has been so happy. and so many. many sweet memories cling' 'round the dear old school that we almost wish we were not Seniors. The beautiful inlluence of our teachers
