iAE5lLm1lAN CLASS OF '23 THEODORE HAX - - President HELEN L. ATWATER Vice President EDWIN DAVEY - ---- Secy-Treas. Seniors may come, and Seniors may go, but the school goes on forever. Very, very true in most cases, but the Class of '23 firmly believes that it will leave a lasting impression behind it, and that old M. H. S. will realize after it has gone what an unusually exceptional class it was. We don't want to boost ourselves unnecessarily or boast, but we do wish to be appreciated. There has been practically nothing going on in the past four years in which we have not participated. Athletics have felt our influ- ence, and such noted clubs as the Glee Club, Dramatic Club, Band, Qrchestra, etc., could never have been the howling successes they were without us. Our members have all been enthusiastic club workers and have thoroughly enjoyed every thing they undertook. Our pep is not to be compared to that of others. We have actually en- joyed taking up every campaign, or suggestion of Mr. Gorrell, and have cheerfully done the work connected with them, in order to keep up the repu- tation of our school, and after all, work done cheerfully is not work at all. And our studies! That is where we shine! As timid, teacher-fearing Freshies, Qalasl they are no morej we started in to work hard because we were afraid not to, and we have forgotten to stop. Each year we have been carefully warned by the class ahead, that its studies were dreadfully hard, and so each year, scared almost to death, we have started to conquer those studies, Finding them to be good friends when we became acquainted. Thus we have come safely thru to the Senior year, working just as hard as when we started at the foot of the ladder of fame. We have been sitting in Chapel day after day, week after week, and year after year, and now that we are ready to make our maiden flight into the great unknown, we feel perfectly safe because we are equipped with the wonderful wings of wisdom fashioned from Mr. Gorrellls daily Chapel talks. If we ar- rived in school with any perverted ideas of duty and morals, we have certainly been most glad to cast them away, and to fill the fast increasing spaces of our minds with good, pure, and true thoughts, amply be-fitting future citizens of the United States. And so, although Seniors may come, and Seniors may go, and the School goes on forever, we, the Class of '23, and proud of our name, feel that we are an exception to the rule and that as long as Massillon High School shall stand, a part of us at least, shall stand with it. L. W. '23.
