When were those days that are wonderful enough to be wished back? After much consid- eration, it is our conclusion that in the minds of many, the Gay N ineties seem to be thought of as one of the most glamorous pe- riods in the history of our country. It is thought of as a time when family life was closer, living was at an easier pace, styles were love- lier, and school life was full of traditions to be long remembered and cherished. Were things actually as rosy as they have been pictured? After all, most of our opinions could only have been formulated by his- tory books, novels and motion pictures. Should we be desirous of the era and attempt to relive it or could it be over-rated? Mightnlt our lives today be pleasanter and more complete? Come with us as we try to discover by comparing our school days with those of sixty years ago. This area might have the greatest influence on our final decision, for it is here, at school, that most of our young life is spent and which dominates our thoughts above all else. 4
