]THE ARGUS t Senior X itorial iwwBumrioif HE four years spent by us as students of the Ottumwa High School will always be remembered as the most eventful, fruitful and happiest which we have ever ex- perienced. Here we have formed friend- ships and acquaintances which can never be forgotten; here we have experienced joys and pleasures of lasting remembrance and here we have gained through study and application the training which shall serve its useful purpose for us in after life. We are grateful to our Alma Mater for the things which we know she has given us; we shall remember her always and cherish the days spent within her walls. ]1917[ 19
