i?., 13,14- years and out 'Way back in '37 a large, large group of small, wet-behind-the-ears, big-eyed kiddies ontered Senior High School, with protruding gulps stuck within their throats, with stuttering tongues, stumbling gait, and minus all kid bravado so very prevelent down in familiar ole Junior High the preceding spring. Their hue was bright and very noticeable- -green. Ono year, two years, throo years, all pass hum-drumingly by with school work, cram and jam sessions, athletics, convocations, plays, successes and failures all interspersing the long, long days and months of hated, horrid school. Then,--a senior! Then a senior! Ah, what fun! Lenient toachors, obsequious, flattering underclassmen, loss work, more play, privileges galore—oh, lovely senior year. Important last year, last month, last wock, last day, last minute ovonts and they're out--school is over! Darn! School is over! No core up-at-sovon, school at 8 14; no more ossay worries; no noro quiz-crams; no more hours-aftor-school. This class of '41 bolongs no longor. It nay come back to visit, to see old tor.chcrs, roview old good tinos, but it will belong nevermore. It no longor has that right tho student hes to driticizo its own school; it can nevermore slam tho locker doors, break tho rules, race down the halls, arrogantly take ovor some room, use tho sehool equipment with all the far’.fl-iar assurance of an owner;--nevermore, because this class is in no longor. And so, the class of 41 stands looking back, rominiscontly....It gently closes tho door, releases tho doorknob, and permits the lock to click. Let us hope that as it turns to another door of life that it has the proud confidence, tonporod with humility; tho young optimism, ton-perod with sagacity; and abovo all, the sonse of humor, tho toko it-on-tho-chin, novor-say-dio that a graduato of N. H, S. should havo, Horo's to the class of 41. Goodbye, good luck, and God bloss you!
