V C 8 R C B G K - me' Senior History Un a bright, sunshiny day in September, 1910, our awestruck visions beheld a mighty pile of brick before us. Its tower rose heaven- ward, the first to greet the rising sun, the last to bid the setting sun good night. On every side stretched spacious squares of green. On several sides we beheld gigantic oaks, those won- derful relics of time and age, which formed a very canopy over our heads. XYe entered the portals of the old school and after ascending many intricate and winding stairways, arrived on the third Hoor where we were given a hearty reception by our elders who, much to our embarrassment, continually clapped to welcome us into their ranks. After several weeks we organized into one great army, chose our leaders, formed our plans, and selected our colors, navy blue and gold. We were hound together by strong cords of fellowship, one in thought, in deed. in act, for well we believe that in union there is strength. After having successfully begun the jour- ney we enjoyed a class party held at the gym. The occasion being St. Patricks Day, every wall, nook, and corner was festooned with the reigning color, green. After a few social hours we adjourned to our homes. Again we proceeded on our way, each day becoming better acquainted with each other, the teachers, and the school, until we encountered the two hardest battles during the first year of our siege, the 'Tixamsf' Most of us suc- ceeded in suppressing the rebellious monsters, but many, not yet acquainted with the spirit of battle, were overpowered by them and we passed on without them. Yacation came, and so ended our first year. The wheel of time moved around and brought us together again with happy faces and confident hearts, in the halls of the old school prepared to begin our second year. XYe were in love with our work, and so with much diligence we bent toward our tasks. Uneventfully the year passed, and again we crushed the mighty Exams VYe passed on then to take up our duties as juniors. 'What an important position we held! Half of our trials were over. VVe realized that each day we were nearing our coveted prize. XVe toiled on and on. Our duties and pleasures were many. XVe attended several parties given by others, and we, in turn, gave one in their honor at which several of our class gave a play entitled, The Last Day of a Country School, which had been so well prepared, and was so skilfully presented that it was greatly enjoyed and was received with great enthusiasm., lt will always be remembered by those who were fortu- nate enough to have had the opportunity to see it. XYe pressed on, again overcoming many dif- hculties, nearer our Senior year. Far ahead, on a gigantic cliff, a thousand towers and pin- nacles glowed and dazzled in the sun. Our happy vision gazed with longing upon the won- drous structure, XYhat a picture of grandeur and magnificence to behold! Yes, it was the goal. We were nearing it day by day. XYas this not enough to spur us on? Once more we stepped from our path of toil. The Gym again was the scene of another occasion. An- other party predominated. XYe bade farewell to the Seniors, and with hearty clasps and many handshakes they departed forever from our midst as the Senior Class. Soon we would take their places. Time goes on and on. XYe stood at the threshold of our Senior year. lint, alas! XYe saw with sorrowing hearts that many of our class had been impeded with difficulties and were now not with us. But we went on without them. Now, our work here is finished. Time has brought us here and our four years have for- ever passed away. XYhatever years may bring, whatever years have brought, we say. Dear old Alma Mater, you'll dwell throughout the years to come. in our thoughtsf' Aura I.. Baslzt, 'I.1.
