Senior Obituary The end has come. The Class of '24 has left the portals of Niles lligh School and now enters upon fields more liroad. For four wonderful years the members of the group of nineteen hundred and twenty-four fought valiantly the earthly battle for education and now comes the lmeginning of the new and unknown life. The preface is concluded. The hook lies opened to the first page of the story. XVhat shall its chapters unfold? Cod alone knows. First let us turn hack to sweet reminiscences of the last four years hcfore leaving forever on the lmroad journey through life. .Ns history has it. all Freshies are green. Undoubtedly we were highly colored. NVe lirazened it through nevertheless and to show our composure fwe really had nonej we gave a backward party. It was of course understood that we could not he expected to work and we fulfilled expectations. Our officers the second year in N. ll. S. were Clayton McCoy. llenry Mason and :Xllene XN'hisman. VVe did not give a party. Our excuse was Too much school work! Yea. the mighty Juniors appear on the horizon. Clayton Mefoy. Marguerite Parent. Margaret Moon and David Pammell were elected to the class offices. The first social event on the junior calendar was a llallowe'en party. Then we picked our rings, avowed the most beau- tiful as yet. The junior Play, Peg O' My Heart. was given in .Xpril and a packed house greeted the production. In june we lianqueied the Seniors and afterward, in the new gymnasium. we gave our .I llop, the greatest event of the year. XYe entered Niles High the fourth year with only forty-five mem- lmers left in our once large class. David Pammell. Richard Cltstot. Rus- sell Hart and Clayton Mcfoy were selected as officers. XVe immediately gave a Get Together party for the school. Then we pulled off the freakiest of Freak Days. Soon we chose our Tattler Staff and commenced work on the Annual of '24. Our second play, Secret Service, was another overwhelming success. XYe had a wonderful Pot-Luck supper at Margaret lNloon's and intend to have numerous other social events during our last year. VVe have grown to love our Alma Mater and regret to leave its protecting halls. XYe now leave it in the tender care of the honor- almle juniors, D. T. l'ammell 29
