Jacksonville High School - Crimson J Yearbook (Jacksonville, IL)

Page 6 text:

The Nautilus E are justly proud of the Jacksonville High School. Another successful year has passed, and a class of fifty-Beven has stepped out into the future, a part of which are ready for college and higher education and a part ready to take up life’s work. This issue of The Nautilus wishes to take you into close confidence and convince you that J. H. S. is a worthy institution and demands the appreciation and support of the general public. Also that a High School education is a too important and essential thing to be neglected. It wishes further to recall fond recollections of the many pleasant as well as toilsome hours spent within its walls and to cause you to have greater esteem and regard for your dear old Alma Mater. Long may “Old J. H. S.” stand as one of the best High Schools in the State of Illinois, and from year to year continue to grow in popularity and worth. You are, no doubt, enjoying the pleasant, invigorating, outdoor air and sunshine, which you do not get in the school-room, but which comes only in vacation time. A pleasant vacation to you all is the wish of The Nautilus. “Snatch gaily the joys which the moment shall bring, And away every care and perplexity fling.” N. B.—Get extra copies of this number from the Business Manager or at the Roach Printing Office- Price, 25c. Greeting Frank W. Rucker, Editor-in-Chief.
