mm 'iPo4:1f Cla. ,l!5,z.,., O0 While Old Man Time continued on his listless way, we the class of '42 have passed from the green Freshman stage to a more lofty position of dig- nified Seniors: repeating the history and tradition of the many classes before us. History has proved if we are to progress the old order cannot stand. So the old order changeth giving place to the new. When we think of bidding good-bye to our class-mates and teachers, there is at first thought a tinge of regret, but it is quickly replaced by the pleas- ant anticipation of the beginning of a new era in our lives. In 1939 a group of fifty-six eager boys and girls met at Nancy and became organized as the Freshmen class. Throughout the first year we worked rather faithfully and passed our subjects without any difficulty. The second year we acquired the new name of Sophomores. We were struggling onward and were proud of the fact that we were one year nearer our goal-a high school diploma. Our rank had decreased considerably. There were now forty-three members. Our third year as high school students came quickly. More of our class- mates had dropped from the roll, leaving our class only thirty-eight. The J unior-Senior banquet was one of the outstanding events in our Junior year. This school year found a class of thirty-seven assembled here again. We were beginning to feel the responsibility of being the Senior class. We realized more than ever that our high school days were drawing to a close. Together we have striven hard to make this our most successful year. ' We hold a deep gratitude toward our principal and faculty. They were al- ways ready to lend a helping hand when we needed help and advice. There- fore, in behalf of the entire graduating class of 1942, may these words sa- lute the future of the new organization. May a better Nancy continue to contribute to the good of the world.

And to this wonderful school We've all tried to be true, Now you class of Juniors We set an example for you. And for the seconds: the Sophmores We feel you are as great, As we Seniors of forty-two We think that they are straight. Oh! Now the Freshmen Though they are very green, Anywhere on the campus There is one to be seen. Now our beloved teachers We love them best of all, They sure have helped us They've answered every call. Now dear friends of Nancy We hate to say goodbye, Do all you can for our school Dear ole NANCY HIGH. ' -- -PAUL GODBY sf Q , ,W 05
