W. ...-A--.-nn- SENIOR CLASS HISTORY A , I THE GROUP OF PROMISING WFRESHIESN WHO EMBARKED UPON A HIGH SCHOOL CAREER IN I936 AEE NOW THE ILLUSTRIOUSWSENIORSTOF'I940. AAT LEAST WE THINK WE HAVE SDMENHAT or AN IN- CLINATION TOWARD THAT NOBLE QUALITY.f LET us GLANCE BACK OVER THE FOURIYEARS we HAVE SPENT IN M. H. S. PERHAPS WE HAVE AESDMPLISHED SOME DEEDS WHICH MAY MERIT RECOGNITION IN THE FUTURE ANNALS or MARENGONIAN'HISTORYq WE WERE THE TYP8CAL'GREEN FRESHMENQ IN APPRDACHIND THE CLIMAX or OUREDUCATIDNAL CAREER, WE, AS c SCIENTIOUS SENIORB, ENTERED INTO THIS NEw ADVENTURE WITH CARE AND OILS IGENCE. MAYBE ouTwARD APPEARANCES ARE DECEIVING, Sur we STILL RETAIN OUR LOFTY AMSN TTIDUS WHICH DRID NATED DURING ova FIRST YEAR or HIGH ScHooL LIFED ' WHE OUR SDPHOMORE YEAH WROLLED 'ROUND,' WE WERE NRARINS' To So' AND PROVED IT BY SPONSORING THE PUBLICATION or WTHE MANENDD BEACON N A SCHOOL PAPER UNSDRPASSED BY ANY PREVIOUS SOPHOMORES2 WE EVEN PDSSESS so MUCH EGOTISM AS T0 HOPE THAT IT WILL BE UNSUH- PASSED BY ANY ASPIRINS CLASS IN THE FUTURE. UNDERSTAND, wc DO NOT SAY 'UNEquALLED.N THERE IS MUCH MORE SAFETY IN THE HORD nUNSURPASSED ESPECIALLY SINCE THE PRESENT SOPHD' MORE CLASS OF I940 HAS DISPLAYED REMARKABLE JOURNALISTIC TALENTU ' WTHE PAMPERED DARLING,n AH YES, THAT WAS OUR ONE'ACT MASTERPIECE'OY DRAMATIC-ARYD' WE, THE SOPHOMORES OF I938, WERE RATHER PROUD OF OUR EFEQRTS IN PRESENTING OUR FIRST HIGH SCHOOL PLAY EVEN IF NE DTE FATL'TO DISCOVER A FUTURE JOE E BROWN OF MARTHA RAYE. A PLEASE DON'T ARR VE AT THE CONCLUSION THAT Oun IS LACKING IN THE'QUALITIES 0f' UMOR ORII HILARITY HOWEVERQ As SOPHOMORESA WE HAD SuccESsruLLY ovEncDME THE RESULTS or OUR FIRST STAGEIAPPEAR' ANcE: NAMELY, TREMBLING KNEEBg QUIVERING LIPS, GASPING BREATH, ASHEN COUNTENANCE, AND ALL THE OTHER ELEMENTS or STAGE FRIGHT. 'THEREFORE, ws, A5 JUNIORS, DEEMED OURSELVES CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SOMETHING MoRE'cDMPLIcATED IN THE FIELD or bHAMATIcS. AND LD, WE APPEARED UPON THE SCENE WITH NTHE HIGH SCHOOL MVSTERY,n A THREE'ACT PRESENTATION ABOUNDING IN FASCINATINGTTHRILLS AND HAZARDOUS ADVENTURE. THE WJOLLY JUNIORSW or 1939 NILL ALWAYS DE REMEMDERED, we DPE, Sv THE FLAG POLE WHICH MAINTAINS SUPREMACY ON THE SCHOCLHOUSE LAWN. IT STANDS AS A MEMORIAL TO THE DISCREET USAGE or OUR SURPLUS FUNDS AND A SINCERE DESIRE TO CONTRIBUTE SOMETHING DSEM PUL AND LASTIND TO DEAR OLD M.H.S. MR.

NOT ON YOUR LIFET' IT w'S THE EMBODIMENT OF OUR SOCIAL DEMIGHTS OF THE YEAR. WHAT A TIME WE HADI' COMPLETELY IGNORING THE TIRED, ACHING FEET AND DESTRUCTIDN OF MY LADYIS HOSIERY, WE THROUGHLY ENJOYED OUR SIGHP'SEEING EXCURSION TQ COLUMBUS AND THE APPETIZING DANQUET WHICH WAS SERVED AT THE SCHOOLHOUSE UPON FUR RETURN, AFTERUARDS, FOR A DIT DF DIVERSION AND ENTERTAINMENT, WE ALL JOINED MERRILY IN A NUMBER OF ROLLICKING FOLK DANCES UNDER THE' DIRECTION Of MR. ELWOOD DAVIS, OUR COUNTY EXTENSION AGENT. ' ' ' ' THE FINAL CHAPTER IN OUR DRAMA OF HIGH SCHOOL LIFE IS SLCWLY DRAWING TG A CLOSEo LET US LINGER AWHILE UPON-THE PAGES WHICH MARK OUR EXPLOITATIONS AS SENIORS. THE LAST HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OFFICERS WHOM we SHALL EVER HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF - ELECTING ARE REPRESENTED IN OUR CHOICE OF DEAN PHILLIPS AB PRESIDENT, LAUEAMAE WEBER AS VICE PRESIDENT, AND KENNETH DUNHAM AS SECRETARY AND TREASURER. ' , THE PROBLEMS WHICH CONFRONTED US HAVE OEEN OF THE SAME NATURE AS THOSE WHICH ALL ETHER SENIOR CLASSES UEFORE US HAVE FACED- OUR FIRST DECISION NAS IN THE SELECTION CHOICE OF THE GROUP MATERIALIZED INTO A TINY A QUITE SINGULAR AND INDIVIDUAL APPEARANCE9 US PECIDED TO INVEST A SMALL AMOUNT OF MONEY OF OUR COMMENCEMENT INVITATIONS.
