Commencement Number T H E R E D A N D B L A C K Page Thirteen in Class Poem of '28 Life resembles a garden plot Brimming with flowers and weeds Both struggling for supremacy And the stronger one succeeds. Strife continues in ceaseless rounds Between the enemies keen Weeds always threatening to kill the flower Growing neglected, unseen. Temptations grow in yduth's garden fair Uprooted by virtue's spade, And the flowers flourish daily, While the weeds of evil fade. With the lily of spotless purity, The rose of hope and love, We will hearken to 1ife's calling To please the One above. Classmates, let us our garden till Let's make a heaven of good will With blossoms of splendid, noble thought, Unharmed by cold and wind -and drought. Winter may come and earth's blossoms die As the year's swift seasons roll, But our flowers of virtue will live for aye In the garden of the soul. Lena Corcimiglia.

Commencement Number T II E R E D A N D B L A C K Page Fifteen HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY OF LE ROY Faculty The students of Le Roy High regret to think that sev- eral members of the faculty will not be with us when we return to school in the fall. We thank them for the patience which they have shown in guiding us through our high school work. Often they must have been ready and willing to let us go our own merry way but then refrained, realizing what was ahead of us. Now that we are farther along, we appreciate what they have done for us and we shall do our best to show them that the effort was worth-while. It is gratifying that so many of our faculty have chosen to be with us for another year. We shall gladly welcome them back next fall. Those who are leaving us are: Mr. Taylor, Miss Hyde, Miss Wilson, Miss Wood, Miss Frey, Miss Otis and Mr. Hager. Faculty Notes At a party given by Miss Combs at her home in Ba- tavia on Monday evening, May 21, the guests were pleasantly surprised by the announcement of the engagement of Miss Wood to Mr. Wilfred Batchelder of Syracuse. At the same time, in honor of the members of the high school faculty leaving Le Roy in June,-Mrs. Taylor, Misses Melvin, Frey, Wood, Otis and Hyde, were presented parting gifts. Misses Sanderson, Calvert, Crellin and Clapper enter- tained the faculty at dinner and bridge at the Rock Garden in Batavia on Tuesday evening, May 22. Prizes were won by the Misses Combs, Bitter and Jacks. On Monday evening, May 28 Miss Otis entertained at dinner followed by a theatre party in Rochester in honor of Miss Wood. On Wednesday evening, June 6, the faculty had dinner at the Applewood . In the program following the com- mittee in charge were very clever in presenting Mr. Taylor with a farewell gift. They presented a humorous personality rating of several members of the faculty with the award, a Cogswell chair, given to Mr. Taylor. Thursday, May twenty-fourth, we had an assembly of especially fine character. Mr. Taylor read us a commenda- tion from the State Department of Music on the work of
