THE NEWTON HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL Class Hymn By ALICE GORDON Bovnaw OD preserve our Alma Mater, Guard and keep her we irnplore Help her glorious work to do In the years that are before her, As she has done in the pastg May her infiuence be about us, Guiding us while life shall last. . 'We who now go from these portals, Witnesses desire to be Of her strength and of her wisdom, Showing by our lives, that we In our hearts have kept her teachings, And by loyal service true, In the joy of helping others, Give unto her honor due.

Thanks and blessings we bestow, And tho' soon we're widely scattered, This our prayer where'er we go:- God preserve our Alma Mater, Newton High School, tried and true, Guard and keep her we implore Thee, Guide her all her journey through.

FORE WORD T would be impossible to print in any volume all the school events S 2' I y which have occurred during this year, and it is far from our desire .Iliff Q '4 to do this. On the contrary we have attempted to make this book V, one that will interest every member of our school, and each of its all many friends. To do this it has been necessary to pass over many things interesting to a few, but not of such a character as to be interesting to all. We give this as our excuse for the many omissions which must be necessarily noticed. It has been the honest endeavor of the Editorial Board to select material worthy of appearing herein, and to give as much space to each department as seemed proper, considering the limitations that we were forced to meet in regard to time and resources. From the outset the enterprise has met with enthusiastic support. Many of our teachers have given their co-operation, and much of their careful thought and suggestion, to promote the undertaking. Mr. Thomas has kindly guided and furthered the movement from the beginning, and we are grateful to him, beside other things, for reading much of this book in manuscript and proof. Miss Dix has given her time and thought to the artistic side, and we are indebted to her to a great extent for the excellent drawings which head the various departments. Most of these headings were done in her classes, and under her direct supervision. If we should attempt to mention all who have helped us in the work, we should have little space left in the book for other material, and we shall have to be content with merely thanking them all for their assistance. However, there are a few other things which must be mentioned. Among these is the fact that other people besides scholars have shown an interest in the Annual. It is only through the liberal support of the advertisers that this book could be pub- lished. It has taken almost incessant work on the part of the Editorial Board to assemble the material so that the Annual might appear by the middle of j une, and the business managers have been equally busy. We hope that the success attained by this first Annual of the Newton High School will warrant a similar undertaking by each succeeding class, and that this will become a permanent institution of the School.
