Any Senior Class who has undertaken the task will eonlirm that statement, and incredulous .luniors will soon learn it, and learn also that a little outside assistance and co-operation is a big help. We appreciate the fact that we have the opportunity of profiting by the mistakes ol' those who have gone before, and we hope that the many we make will prove to be ol, assistance to those who come after. Still we hope to make the TIGER ol' ,I7 stand as a worthy memorial ol' that year in the life ofthe old L. C. H. S. ln this book, an effort has been made to combine community doings with High School afliairs. Therefore history, legends, industry, agriculture and illus- trations of the town have been included, because we want our Annual to be of interest, not only to active students, but also to those who have been students of the same institution, or are supporters of the same. This is the hrst attempt in the history ol' THE TIGER to do this and we sin- cerely hope that we have succeeded, and won the approval of the public. Senior Poetieal Advice l I - HERE, there, little Freshmen, don't cry, You were caught passing notes we know, And were kept after school For breaking rules, And reports often made you sigh. There, there, little Freshmen, don't cry, For your president the girls all adore, You are green, welll admit, But you have the grit, And will soon be a gay Sophomore. II 'Twas an evening dark and dreary When gay Sophies weak and weary Pondered o'er neglected school books, Gloomy, knowing on the morrow Exams were coming-to their sorrow. VVishcd that they had not forsaken Vows they had as Freshmen taken To be students-Mnever shirkers- Ardent and industrious workers, As they pondered books once more Quoth each Sophomore, Never-more But, gay Sophomores, you'll be Juniors yn 7 N L

Xagfy- :-1' THE TIGER, 1917 0 ll ' 15 illllil lim A Il' you mix more work than play, So in parting we advise you Get your work from day to day. Then not pondering weak and weary For exams you now hold dreary You can answer bright and cheery XVe'll be flunking UNever-more. III Juniors, Freshmen and Seniors one day Sailed into the assembly room, Some earnest, some nervy, some very gay, Into the sea of doom. VVhere are you going and what do you wish? Mr. Wichman asked the three. We have come to hsh for the knowledge fish That lives in the dreadful sea, Brains of green and gray have we, Said these strange Fishermen three. A quiet little smile, smiled he at them And to their classes they passed But returned rather meek, not daring to speak, For they had found their knowledge not vast. Mr. Wicliinan laughed, but steered their craft As they sailed thru the stormy sea. But they had to fish right, He kept them in sight, And said, You must good Fishermen be. The little zeros were the herring fish That lived in the beautiful sea. Now cast your nets wherever you wish, Never afeared are we! So cried the teachers to the Fishermen three. Education AVING spent four years of study in this high school, we are now in a position to give some valuable QD advice to the undergrads. Some people seem to consider that the years devoted to high school study are not profitable. But we do not think that such is the case, and feel confident that our sojourn in this school will never be an object of regret. VVhen we look over the successes and failures of life, we hnd that the high places in the world are reserved for the trained men. Chances for success in meet- ing the problems that confront the world are in favor of the high school graduate as against the grade school graduate. It has been estimated that every day spent in high school study is worth nine dollars. Can a person afford to lose nine dollars a day in this age of high prices? The answer shows the value of a high school education. So we say unto the undergrad, Keep working. Stick to your job. Re- member the race of the modern age is not to the swiftest, but to the keenest, the most far-sighted, and the most eflicient. 8
