U, IIC! TI-IE SENIOR CLASS, JUNE, 1923 UR CLASS, that of June, 1923, being the first to graduate from North Dallas, has had the privilege of founding a standard for the succeeding classes. We have tried to establish a precedent that other classes will be proud to follow, as we have endeavored to make the Senior Class stand for the highest of ideals and accomplishments. So with this as our goal we have marched on, ever onward, to be remembered always as the first graduating class of North Dallas. Orange and White, Viking, Norther, N. D. H. S.-each and everyone of these is dear to all of us. It seems impossible that in one short year we could learn,to love them. But, on the other hand, how could we help it, with Mr. Com- stock as principal, teachers as real friends, such dear classmates, our wonderful sponsor, who possesses the love and admiration of every senior, and the North Dallas spirit! Believing that All work and no play makes Johnnie a dull boy,', we seniors, with Miss Snidow as our ever dependable and enthusiastic leader, planned numer- ous good times. Uur social committee was the entire class, and in all instances a large majority of the 75 responded. For those who are not familiar with our events of this type we take pride in telling them of our fun, and for all who par- ticipated it will be a pleasure for these glad times to be recalled to their memories. Those delightful picnics, theater parties, and dances constitute only a small part of our entertainments and were decided successes. Then came the proud day in our history when our pins and rings arrived. Oh, aren't they darling? and Just look at the little Viking ship in the center! were among the many expressions of joy both from seniors and underclassmcn. The latter looked at them with a sigh, as if these pins and rings were medals of achievement and awards for reaching our goal. But, alas, is it our goal? l'm sure all members of the class will readily answer, UNO. It is just a beginning in the race of life. It is true we have completed perhaps the first lap, but our future accomplishments remain to proclaim our success. However, a start in the right direction, as we have undoubtedly had, promises a bright future and a winning of the race. Q' The spirit of co-operation of the class of '23, which is no less characteristic of the entire student body, predominated in our last year. Merely Mary Ann, June Blizzard, and, most of all, Commencement, were products of our spirit, for we wanted to make them representatives of our bestfi It is with glad hearts but tear-filled eyes that we leave North Dallas. We feel that it is our school and our love for it will be everlasting. As a word to the remaining students of the school and as an expression of our best wishes for the future of the Orange and White, we waht to urge that our successors do justice to themselves and to North Dallas, the grandest school on earthf' A li 1:1 V in Page Seventeen
