-------T II E A R R () W--PAGE TWENTY-TWi SENIOR FAREWELL As in each great joy some sorrow Comes creeping o’er our hearts, So cross our graduation 1'iie Senior class departs. How we’ve longed and waited for it. This, the very best of days; Just to have our fair dreams shattered By the parting of the ways. We have been so long together; Four long years, and yet so soon Has the time come for our parting On this first of merry June. Not a one has been disloyal. We have loved our class right well; Now the time has come to leave it, No words can our sorrow tell. Beyond a curtained hallway. Beyond a fast closed door. Lies the future of the Seniors, There success awaits in store. For within our ranks are statesmen— There are soldiers—artists too; There are nurses, doctors, actors, And of authors not a few. We shall help to make a nation, And our country’s history --- Will be infinitely strengthened By our love of unity. In far years, when on life’s journey. We shall look through memory’s eye At the past and at our school days— O’er our lips will pass a sigh. And a mist of tears will gather In our eyes and blind our sight, As memory backward leads us To the sadness of tonight. Tonight dear friends, we leave our dear old High School, The cross roads have been reached and we must part; Clasp hands once more, once more re- peat good wishes, And pledge a lingering mem’ry in each heart. And now, goodbye, and may the dear God bless you And keep from you the pain and sting of years. May Fortune’s steps for aye and aye attend you. Goodbye—God banish all your fears. —DOROTHY SMITH, T7. ------

T II E A R R () W—page twenty-one THE L. T. L. CLUB On October 17, E)JJL-the M. H. S. girls held a meeting at which they organized a Girls’ club, the purpose of which was to bring the girls together in a social way, and to do things for the school, such as helping the Athletic as- sociation, and buying pictures and necessities for the school. At the first business meeting held in Octo- ber, the following officers were elected: Presi- dent, Celeste Mundschau; vice president, Eliza- beth Youmans; secretary, Clara Wollenzien; treasurer, Mildred West; club advisor. Miss E. Shapiro. Committees were appointed to select a name for the club, to draw up a constitution, to plan parties or social events, and to arrange pro- grams, with Alta Guthrie, Hattye Kalk. Mary McAdams, and Jean Betts as their respective chairmen. It was agreed that each member should be assessed dues of twenty-five cents per semes- ter in return for which they received member- ship cards to the club; and further that busi- ness meetings were to be held every other Tuesday and social meetings once a month. At a business meeting held in November the name committee submitted several names to be voted on by the club. “Live to Love” (L. T. L.), or “Lambda Tau Lambda” ( T ) was the name chosen. Plans were also made for getting club pins. A constitution was drawn up by the constitution committee and submitted later in the year. The first social meeting, a “Thanksgiving Party” was held in November. An appropriate program was given after which a light lunch was served. In December a “Christmas Party” was given. The “Holy Roller Sunday School” rendered an unusually interesting program, after which “Santa Claus” distributed “presents” and stock- ings filled with “goodies,” from the Xmas tree. The remainder of the evening was spent in playing games. In November the L. T. L. club gave a “Penny Social” at the High School building. A penny was charged for admission and also for each of the special features which afforded much amusement. The social was a great success in every way and a good time was reported by all. The sum of $45.00 was taken in and divid- ed between the Athletic association and the L. T. L. club. The girls put their money into the treasury toward their fund for wiring the class rooms and the girls’ cloak room for elec- tric lights. In January a “Riley Program” was given, consisting of the “Life of Riley” and a number of his poems. This program was not only in- structive but also very interesting. In February an “International Social” was given. There were thirteen different booths, representing as many different nations, in which lunches and drinks were served. An in- teresting program was also given and $65.00 taken in. Half of it was given to the boys and the other half kept by the girls. A “Farewell,” a “Marshmallow and Wiener Roast.” for the Senior girls has been planned and will be given in the near future. The L. T. L. club has been a great success this year and we hope that it will thrive as successfully next year. —GLADYS M. WEST, ’17. -------------«
