I CLASS PROPHECY T no time in the history of the world has there been such a change in things as during this age. Ideas, which LTI? were once thought to be irrevocable, have been altered Nu-.-f:'LJ . . ' . . : until they no longer show any relation to the initial thought. The Class of 1927 has kept pace with the times. Where will 1937 Find us? What may happen to us in ten years of competition in the game of life? The future can only be foretold from the shadows of the past. This fact must be kept in mind when the following predictions are considered, for in them may be found our class-mates of a decade ago.

minds. To a great extent we have put away childish things and the dim thought has become a reality. ln a sense we are sorry for many th-inlgs-for not attaining to a nearer perfect ideal of Seniors, for having lost so much valuable time before the realization of what school means to us. But we are proud of our Class in spite of all its shortcom- ings and will carry with us many pleasant memories of dear M. H. S. and many thanks to the Teachers who have given their best to us. The Class of '27 bids you all a grave adieu. CLASS POEM, '27 For four hard years we labored, ln dear Old Armagh High, And all our joys and pleasures W'e'll now bid fond good-bye. We now pass out into a world . Of larger, larger trials, But 'ere we 'turn back in our quest The world shall lose its smiles. Whatever path we follow, Faithful, loyal we shall be, And try to give the best we have, For the dear old Nlilroy High. TWENTY-Fl E L eco-,-...,e,.,., 1927 .,-,...:......,-,,..
