A REAL COMMENCEIVIENT The .lungle is the enemy of man. Its nature is to spread and destroy. But the iron hand of civilization holds it in a frm grip, and each year sees the Jungle growing smaller, while men and machinery flourish on its very borders. Senior A's, this is your challenge! The A9 Class of S28 has shown itself strong and steadfast. But per- haps you, as individuals, have .lungles in your natures which could spread and destroy you. Have you will power enough to overcome them, to check them with the strangling grip of truth? If you have, prove it now, and let your Commencement really be a Com- mencement of new ideals, and new purposes. Enter High School with the desire to conquer your Jungles, and persist until, like civilization, you are triumphant! -FRANCES JACOBS. ' TO SUIIIMER '28 Do you remember how it felt when you were told of your being Senior A's? After that, remember how you changed? Most of you thought that you were lords over all of the other classes, and looked down on them. Later your head shrunk until it was its nat- ural size again. After that you continued your climb towards the pinnacle of the Junior High hill. Now, that pinnacle has been reached! A9's, I think that you have climbed well and had the stick-to-it-iveness that was needed! You have proven yourself worthy of belonging to .lohn Burroughs. Q But-although you have succeeded in this, John .Burroughs .lunior High was a mere foothill! Now, get all your natural ability, plus reserve ability, then add some more, get ready to hike, and show High School Peak that it also can be climbed! -MARTIN N oR1Ns.
