K, ff Lewiston High School qi HHH of the Class of 193.7 -ff iw 7 iliturials L i FOUR YEARS AT LEWISTON HIGH SCHOOL S we turn back the pages of time to the fall of the year 1933, we see a large freshman class receiving instructions from Mr. Butler in the armory. After final instructions, we entered eagerly the new building where we have been happy to spend four happy years. Our four years passed rapidly and smoothly. Our class represented many creeds and races, but we were one happy family cemented by the glorious friendships of childhood, l.ike one big happy family, we toiled at our lessons, played at our games, shared each other's joys, and sympathized in each others sorrows. XYe know the teachers, their likes and dislikes. NYe know the popular subjects and Why they are so, and also the less popular ones. XX'e know fairly well how the school is run. After graduation, each of us will go his separate way. .XS we go forth from here, the road is forked. NX'hichever road each of us is going to take, herefs good luck to everybody! -Carrie Wong A GYMNASIUM FOR L. H. S. The demand for a gymnasium and auditorium for our school is becoming more and more noticeable every year. XVe have been fortunate in having the Armory so conveniently located and available for our use, as it has been indispensable to us in many cases. Many times, however, it has not been available for our use when it was needed and this has been a great inconvenience to us . This is due to the fact that the Armory is used for many other things besides school activities, for this building is at times the home of anything from a chicken or dog show to a Charity Ball. At such times our school is unavoidably and disgracefully without a gym. XYe have been forced to get along without one. It is indeed a pity that a school so large and so line as ours should be without a gym of its own, and We sincerely hope that in the course of a very few years, ways and means will be found for providing one for dear old I..

if ff' W- Lewiston High School mlm JIHUHU of Ihe Class ol' 193.7 ---W .. l IN MEMORIAM lt is with reverence that we pause here to honor the memory of our late junior-English teacher, Miss Harriette Lucy McCann, who passed away this winter. XYQ, the graduating class of l937. were fortunate to have had her last year for the full year. Her memory will live on forever, not only as a great teacher, but as a good friend to all of us, as well. She helped us to see the beautiful side of life. she saw it. She had indeed given us a better understa-nding of good literature. Not only do her pupils mourn her death, but our faculty as well. In the many years to come. I am sure that her memory will always be cherished by those fortunate enough to have been her pupils and her friends. -Helen Scolnik A LIFE'S PROGRAM Forget Yesterday. Do not be tormented by past errors you have made. Do not brood about something that is without remedy. Do not start the day with a sigh. Do not start your daily work with a frown. Yesterday is passed and you can do nothing about it. Brighten up today. Get the most out of today. Do not lose your time. Fill the day with sunshine. Act as if you had but the present day to dispose of. Make the program for to-morrow. Make a note each night of the work that is to be done on the morrow, and do not let anything stop you from doing what you have planned for each hour of the day. Appreciate the value of time. Your time is worth as much as that of a prince. Talking of minutes, you are millionaire. Do not let millions go by unnecessarily. -Germaine Therriaiult A SENSE OF HUMOR A sense of humor is a splendid thing to have, but you must know how to use it. lt is not humor to laugh at every trifling remark, to pun constantly while others are having a serious discussion, or to retell jokes from newspapers and magazines.
