Senior Will It was a warm day in April. A great crowd of young people stood about the entrance of the City Hall of St. Marys. Their faces peered anxious- ly into the darkened doorway from which a figure soon emerged. An awed hush fell upon the crowd as the familar voice of Carl Grimm addressed his fellow students. Dear Friends I have here a copy of the last VVill and Testament of the class of 1927, wherein he preceded to read: VVe the class of 1927 of Memorial High School, St. Marys, County of Auglaize, State of Ohio, U.

Senior History A gray haired old man sat at a table piled high with huge books. Beside him, leaning against an hour glass, was a long spider-web, covered scythe. As he pondered over The Twentieth Century a faint smile spread over his face and a merry twinkle appeared in his eyes. His book was opened to the record of the class of 27 . Ah! he said, gazing upon their laurel cov- ered record, A most illustrious class, in fact, the largest and greatest that ever entered St. Marys High School, over one hundred and thirty members. They began their career with a bang. Eudora Hudson was chosen their pilot for the year 23-24. During this year they entered into all activities, sup- porting each other with their well known Now or Never spirit. Some of the activities in which they took were Athlethics, Dramatics, Music, and the Music Memory Contest. of which they more than per- part In all formed their duty. Their good record was excelled only by those of the following years. They completed their High School Course in the New Memorial High, being the First Soph- mores to enter that wonderful build- ing. Leonard Schroer was chosen captain of the ninty-eight Sophomores of that year. As before, they were un- excelled in class spirit. The class was the only one in school with enough pep to get up a Halloween party. Again they were well represented in the activities of the school. Their Junior year was one of their most brilliant and successful, judging from the way they entertained, the Sophomores and Seniors. Edward Ruble was elected President by the eighty-six loyal supporters of the Green and Gold Banner. The rapidly diminishing class roll must not be al- loted to their dumbness but to their wisdom. Many students having taken summer school, graduated with the Senior Ciass of 26 . The reception given by the Green and Gold to the Scarlet and Gray was adjuged the best ever given by any Junior class not only the spirit of hospitality, but also in every detail. Again another chapter closes, said the old man as he closed the huge book. Tage 30
