CLASS MOTTO: Not Evening, But Dawn HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '27 CONTINUED FROM LAST YEAR FTER a three months' vacation, which to some of us was an education in itself, the Class of '2 7 again enter- ed the doors of Nl. H. S. Seniorsl The goal to which ' we had long aspiredg the goal which in the dim past looked so far distant! How proud may those twelve be who have remained in the pursuit of knowledge thus far. However, being a Senior does not give one reason to be proud. It is the responsibility, and even power, of that posi- tion, and if one may have reason to exult in it, it is up to the individual. To be a worthy Senior one must work and strive to achieve all that which 'in former years had been neglected, possibly through ignorance or carelessness. Yes, our new responsibility weighed heavily upon us and one of our first adjustments was to eliminate many festive class meetings for business ones. One point, first of all. which must not be -overlooked, is our increased seriousness concerning school life and life's school. This has been manifest in various ways. For instance. La Vie de l'Ecole has been given whole-hearted support and owes its existence this year to Seniors. The other classes have followed, but the Seniors ledl ln the Held of athletics, disregarding the lack of numbers, a Senior volleyball team competed with those of other classes and made a not unworthy record. The girls of the Class con- tributed the Captain of the basketball team, while Senior boys formed the majority of the boys' Varsity. One of the greatest athletes of which lVl. H. S. has ever boasted belongs to the Class of 'Z 7. Various means of raising money were employed during the year, but again due to our smallness fin numbers, our ability to present a Senior play was doubted. We bravely stormed the doubts and successfully staged Go Slow, Mary. This Class is the first one from this High School to make a Senior trip. Lacking the necessary finances, the plans for the journey to Washington, D. C., were abandoned and others made for going to our State Capital. This was a very memor- able occasion to all concerned. Now we have come to the end, and of our school days we may say, Tout est fini. Nxfhen we were children, the thought of graduation was scarcely formulated in our childish TWENTY-TH REE e,.,.c.-,.,....e.e. 1927 ..,e......,-....e-,.
