To treat successfully so great and growing a subject as the Alumni of Madison High School would require the serious efforts of an historian, in which office our Alumni Organization seems lacking. To one. however, who has even glanced at the later history of those who received their early training here, it becomes evident that Madison High School may well be proud of her Alumni. Since the opening of the high school in 1875, there have been over one thousand and eight hundred graduates. Only to mention those who have attained marked success would make a list too long to be written here. To mention a few would be scarcely fair to the many of equal importance who would necessarily be omitted. Many have entered the legal profession. and of those a goodly number have won positions of great honor; many have joined the medical fraternity and enrolled their names high among those who help their fellowmen, others have become teachers, engineers, publishers, electricians, ministers, missionaries —in short, few indeed are the callings in life to which our high school has not made numerous contributions. Many graduates, seemingly lost in obscurity, are really holding the highest position of all. that of the makers and keepers of homes. In view of all these facts, we feel that we do ourselves honor in dedicating the Tychobeiahn of 1912 to the Alumni of Madison High School. Tlhe Association The Alumni Association of the Madison High School was formed in June. 1900. The purpose of the organization is to promote friendship and good fellowship among all the high-school graduates and to advance the interests of the school. After the commencement exercises in June, the society meets for the purpose of electing the officers for the coming year, of paying the annual dues of ten cents, and of transacting other business. It has been the custom of the society to hold a banquet every year. These banquets are always well attended and the participants take great pleasure in talking over old times. The association now has a membership of about three hundred. Every high school graduate is eligible to the alumni association and may join at any time by paying the required dues. Contfndleir ces of a Receirnt Alumnus Oh where are those happy days when I was once an honored Senior in the high school? Gone are those days and all the joys they brought me. No longer do I command the respect of the lower classmen. No longer do they tremble with fear at my glance. I feel no more the hearty approval of the teachers and cheering comments of my parents. I see no more their admiring glances. Instead I am trampled underfoot. Upper classmen laugh at me. Officers stand on guard over me I am looked down on by everybody. Nobody admires or imitates me. Nobody respects me. For although I am an honored alumnus of M. H. S., I am simply a Freshman in the Varsity.
