“There is a tide in the affairs of men Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and in miseries. —Shakespeare. Only a few short years ago. five “Little Red” schoolhouses dotted the shores of Minnetonka. Today there stands an imposing, modern High School building equipped to carry on the process of school education and offering opportunities equal to the best—a fitting monument to the wisdom, foresight and generosity of those men and women in this community who have sought to stem the advancing tide of illiteracy and ignorance which is rising in our land. The boys and girls, and young men and women of the Mound Consolidated Schools have caught this spirit and are showing their appreciation of the o] -portunilies for learning and service so wisely provided for them. Gradually and consistently, enlarged courses of study and new educational activities are being offered designed to teach self-control, leadership, strong character. and independence in thought and action. It is with much pleasure and satisfaction that we welcome the latest and very important school enterprise, “The Minoway presented by the class of nineteen twenty-three. We believe this, the first High School Annual to be published in our school, will be the forerunner of many more. Hail to the Class of Nineteen Twenty-three! S. M. PINNEY. SUPERINTENDENT $. M.

MINOWAY—“THE MAGIC VOICE” of Our Alma Mater On the shores of old Lake Langdon, Near the mighty Minnetonka, In a clearing near the lake shore Stands our dear old Alma Mater; In the. rooms so bright and sunny Learn we from the books ot knowledge, Many are the lessons taught us Lessons always worth the learning, Mow the teachers try to help us With their-patient careful training, Try-to make us what we should be Try. to tell us what we can be; Give, us visions of a future Like the sun-rise, bright and golden When we leave our Alma Mater For the world beyond the lake shore. Marjorie Schoening, 1926. + 5
