We are composed of twelve bright and stu¬ dious members, who having labored through the happy years of High School, have now thrown aside the jester’s garb and assumed one of seriousness and dignity. It is needless to take up time and space in relating of the brilliancy of such a class. Words fail me in express¬ ing its greatness. Hitherto we may have been somewhat of a care and an¬ noyance to onr kind instructors, but this year has brought us to the point where before us we see the path of life down which we must tread; and we must proceed toward the appointed goal leaving behind us fond dreams and fancies of our happy school days. These years have been profitable to us in many ways. They have, under the careful guidance of our teachers, been the means of opening to us innumerable fields of soul-inspiring thought and action. We, the seniors of ’09 can say in all sincerity that this fountain of learning has not only filled us with a desire to drink of the crystal waters of knowledge, but has created in us a craving for its refreshing sweetness. And to you, under classes, who are rapidly approaching the gates of the world, the only fitting motto we can leave behind is, “Follow in our path. Do as we have done and you will leave behind you a monument which will stand firm through the storms of life.” . Anna E. Keeler, ’09.
