The next year we chose for our motto so true, Be thou of Service, and then too, For our colors, green and white, so bold, Which to this day so dearly we hold. That was the year that we acted less green, But still the Seniors were inclined to be mean. We showed them that we didn't care at all, 'Cause we were to become juniors the next fall. Then-we were Juniors-what a relief! That we were the best was our belief. . We treated the Seniors, Oh! so fine, When at the Country Club we asked them to dine. Uur junior play went OE with a bang, fTo use the modern collegiate slangj And to the football team we gave, Those men of ours, so valiant and brave. Finally, we're Seniors, and there's no doubt, That into the world we will go out, Perhaps to work, perhaps for more study, And maybe some fame will come to somebody. And now that we are ready to go, - We wish our exit were more slow, Because of happy days we knew While in our Alma Mater true. IACQUELINE RANDEL.

Twas a bugle ringing out summoning a new band to Robin Hood s Retreat of the Sherwood Forest of Parnassus County. The merry youths and maid ens who gathered that fall of 1926 were eager to learn the secrets of becoming full' fledged leaders and masters of their arts. To aid in distinguishing ourselves from other bands in the woods, we chose green and white as our colors, lily of the valley H as our flower, and the motto L'Be Thou of Service. We tried to do our best, and ifgj with Bernice Caldwell as our Maid Marian, we thought we succeeded in our iirsl nl- , r'y' ' ,Sf , fegs, , - - T--. . f l1iv' T 25' J 'fs' :Ji .'i ,ag , :j!7? aa ff W 'MI Nl n.

The second year we started out with Maid Marian again leading us. This year we were able to display our skill in the various forms of activities round the forest, and were succeeding in assimilating knowledge all the while. Among our activities were included playlets which we presented on the woodland green. In sports, too, we proved our worth, showing ourselves to be not only an active band, but also a versatile one. The next year we worked under the leadership of Robin Hood, the name given to our leader, Tommy Sabetta, who aided us and worked with us to make our tasks easier. Throughout the year we contributed many of our band to the various sports and activities of the woodland. We struggled hard to earn money for our annual woodland revelry, called by some the junior Prom. The sale of candy when our day's work was done helped make this possible. Most important, how' ever, was the pageant, The New Poor, in which our fair maidens and gallant youths proved their ability. The day of revelry came at last, and after a royal feast at which our senior band was honored, there was a gay dance where wandering minstrels set our feet to weaving fantastic patterns on the woodland green. At last our Hnal year had come. With Kenny Powell performing the duties of Robin Hood, our merry band, now older and wiser, was filled with the determinaf tion to make the last year a most successful one. Ne'er before had the welkin rung with shouts of joy and glee as when our band received their rings, emblems of their seniority. Then we presented our senior pageant which made possible The Tat' ler, a record of our doings as Robin Hood's merry band of youths and maidens dur' ing our four years' stay in the Sherwood Forest of Parnassus County. Now that the year is ended-we have been commanded to go forth into the world, ever folf lowing our motto: 'iBe Thou of Service. Hark! The trumpet blows and the merry band fades away into the distance to start a new life. HAZEL LEE HOWELL. 1vQ15frC.'Nr 'N.'9,Q,C-',5 5' 29 ' ' - i M '21 1: 'ff sv' ' f 4- -7 .-.,, ..-., - I, . 1,6

The class of 1930 has chosen as it motto, Be Thou of Service. In doin Y 'iff' ,, .. 4, , , , s .J 5 2, xml so, we have had in mind the examples of such people as Thomas Edison, Florence gi! Il Nightingale or Charles Lindbergh. They have given their services to the world in 2 if Q' different but important ways. The business world's fundamental requirements is ,lf M ' ' service, and the higher the type of service we can render, the greater will be thc ref - UUIT1. The world is always willing to reward service and Alfred B. Nobel, who was himself of great service, has expressed the universal idea of rewarding others for service. He is the donor of the 'famous Nobel prizes for service and achievement in science, literature, and world peace. The winners must be people who have shown outstanding service to humanity. Such well known men as Roosevelt, Wilson, and Dawes have won these prizes. However, great service is often performed without public reward and many of the most faithful public servants do their work without recognition. Pasteur, famed for helping stamp out contagious diseases, Fulton, inventor of the steam' boat, and many others have done their work without receiving contemporary acclaim. We can not and indeed must not expect to receive great reward and public praise for what we can do. Our duty is to do the task at hand the best way we know how. To serve is to follow in the footsteps of the Master whose whole life was spent in helping others. We have completed twelve years of school life, and to what end, for the purpose of preparing ourselves in every way for whatever type of service the world may require of us. -JACK ALTER. if 31 , M Q , Q1f lua
