Preface In September of the year 1907, we entered Meriden High School as the Class of 1911, or in other words, as Freshmen. Each one of us had a firm purpose or intention in entering High School. We knew lthat we would have to spend four long years of hard work and study, of toil and worry. But, nevertheless, We were determined to start on our hill to success, and climb it, no mat- ter how difficult the climbing might be. lVe had resolved to gain our end, and as facts show, we have succeeded most admirably. Sixty members of our class are about to receive diplomas. Sixty scholars of Meriden High School are about to leave their fellow students, as well as their dear old M. H. S, Sixty students of Meriden High School are about to go out into the world, some to make a living, others to learn how to make a life. Must we part from our fellow students with whom we have enjoyed ourselves for four years, without leaving them some memento of our happy days together? Must we bid farewell to the students and faculty, to be forgotten forever? Certainly not! VVe have decided to discover some memorial by which the undergraduates may be able to recall to memory their joyful times with the Class of 1911, at the socials, Senior Play and the Reception. We have agreed to let the Annual,' be that memorial. The staff finds it necessary to apologize for all mistakes and errors found in this book, but hope that you will not be too severe in your criticism. We also heartily thank the advertisers, who have helped us publish this Annual. With the dedication of this book the Class of 1911 do graduate from Meriden High School after striving and gaining their last end, and do advise the under- graduates to follow this motto, Certum pete finem.
