ilin-1 limi! illlilillilllllillF1llill1-T H E A R O R A l1 l!IlCVl1l l 'i 'l? 1'lll7lll 'lll'?l Philosopher's Page Education is the door to success. It brings out possibilities you never dreamed of having. It shows you your self-activities. Self-activity is the spark of the fire of life. It spurs your inclinations toward imitation, par- ticipation, curiosity and sociability. Self-acitvity is best developed by its own exercise. Therefore, get into the life of the school. Don't you be the one to sit back and watch the other fellows par- ticipate in thle school activities. Give your self- activities a chance to show their nature, for they are there waiting for you to give them the op- portunity to earn their due appreciation. Education gives you a solid foundation on which to builkl your ladder of success. But re- member- There are all sorts of ladders by which to rise in the world, but, so far as has been observed, there is none of them that does not have to be scaled one rung at a time. In life you start out with a smile, then comes the doubt and the strife. If you admit that life has not been worth its time, then you are a fail- ure. If, in spite of all, you keep up your spirits, then life is a success. Always remember that position, not money, is the deciding factor of failure or success. These words of the Philosopher will appeal to some only momentarily, while for others it will give genuine suggestiveness. lun!!-vlliunaznnnunllqullnl- l Ll 1 Il 1 H ll R I 1 1 1-4 1 I 1: 1: H Fl 1: i1 1 u ll l 1: 1 1:11.11 ,Q I liiuuiuxn-qu-un-up-.pl-.qp-nu-nut...-.pg-.ug-.gq.-qu... 1-..n..ul-.gl-41.1u--qu.-qi..-gn-mu-.un1un.-nu.-qp-q.1.uQqp.-qp14p1qg-.gp-..1n-1qu1qlS Page 2 5

The class of '25 followed the custom estab- lished several years ago of giving a play the last day of school before the Christmas holidays. The entire program was in charge of the Seniors and after several selections by the school orches- tra and the Glee Club, the play Three Pills in a Bottle, was presented. This was a good repre- sentation of the true Christmas spirit. After the final act Santa Claus gave each member of the faculty a gift and the Freshmen and other children in the audience each received a bag of pop-corn and a candy cane. FRESHMAN RECEPTION. The first social event given by the Seniors was the Freshman Reception. It was held some- what later this year but everyone had looked for- ward to it for some time and when that night came, we all had a very enjoyable time. We assembled in the gym but soon went to the auditorium where a trial was being held. Charges were brought up against the Freshmen by members of the Senior Class. One by one, or in small groups, they were called to the stage and fully punished for their offenses by Judge Wackstetter. After their initiation we again went to the gym to dance and later refreshments were served in the lunch-room. THE SENIOR SLEIGH RIDE The annual sleigh-ride of the class of '25 was held on January 12, 1925. Two well filled sleighs left the corner of Madison and Halsted Streets at 7:30. When we reached our destination, which was the home of Laura Budd, we found some of our classmates who had taken their sleigh-ride in automobiles, there ahead of us. Laura's home was decorated with purple and gold crepe-paper, our class colors, and each per- son was provided with a bow of purple and gold. We played games until every one was ready to rest. After delicious refreshments we started home. On the way home it snowed and hailed, but this did not spoil our fun. We came into town atfibut there's no use divulging the class secret. 1.1-qs.-nip.-1.1.1-.gig -qp1nn-gli:-1451.11uu1uuq-na-an-.llqglue-lugs!-4911.
