y y T IT!! rr 7! TT H ? ?y : T! TffC 192 3 tft fSACffC Air At fntu M1C.M school OUR ALMA MATER t As you leave Main Avenue High Sehool for the last time, what pleasant memories are recalled! You think of all the old familiar places that you have seen day after day and never thought about; yet they seem to have made a deep impression upon your memory! You like to remember the cafeteria, where you had twenty-five minutes a day to eat hamburgers and peanuts, to step on everybody's feet and everyone on yours and still not to mind, and to gaze at all the teachers perfectly happy on their miniature stage. And the auditorium! Can’t you remember the many times you pushed and shoved to get a seat at assemblies, when you had such a glorious time talking; in the meanwhile snatching a minute or so to listen to the speaker. Surely you've had a study hall there, where you've developed your mind by trying to study, talk and watch the teacher ull at the same time. Hut your favorite pastime was the library. As you think of it you probably remember that chair farthest from the desk where you used to enjoy the period; or, if you were a bookworm you remember that favorite shelf from whose books you gained such a wealth of knowledge. 1 0

You’ll remember the domestic science and manual training rooms, but a more prominent feature was the saw, which seemed to sound like the saw always in the corner near the sleeper in the comic sections, and which always seemed to correspond exactly to your humor. It was congenial to say the least! No one could forget the front hall—you passed there or danced there so many times that you’ll always want to remember it. Hut what Is that your eyes behold? The front steps—those steps to knowledge! You have sat or stood, baked or frozen there; you went up those steps when you entered Main and now you are leaving by the same ones. So, we beg you. always remember Main and your happy school days there; hut there Is no use entreating you to do so unless you haven’t already realized that you can’t forget so— we bid you good-bye and good-luck!
