FOREWORD Long, long ago, when the toga was the correct dress for evening wear, when the four horsepower chariot per- formed the service which we now exact from the Ford, when the gladitorial exhibition, and not baseball, was the most popular sport of the day, a Latin sage laconically observed, “Tempus Fugit.” We, who have seen the years of our youth speed by, realize the truth of that remark. And now, as we look back on our High School days, how we wish that we might retard the progress of Time, how we wish that we could overturn his hour glass and bring back the years that are gone forever. If we could recall the days that are passed, if we could begin all over again the years that we have spent in High School, there is not one of us but would gladly relive the five years on which the final curtain has recently fallen. We must accept them as irretrievably lost; they are now only memories; pleasant, happy memories. In future years, when we are doing our little bit in the world and carrying on in life, it will be a pleasure to return in spirit to our High School days, to recall the places and faces that were dear to us. But memory is fickle; oftentimes those with whom we were most intimate become, after a few years of separa- tion, a hazy recollection. So, as an aid to memory, we offer to you The Meta. Our purpose was not to make of it a splendid literary achievement; we had but one aim — that it might help you to remember and cherish the features and characteristics of classmates, teachers and friends. We sincerely hope that this aim will be realized in the years to come, when the members of the Class of 1925 are scattered, when “All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.” Trusting that you will overlook whatever faults you may find herein, that you will accept this your year book in the same spirit in which it is submitted, we offer to you, Classmate, THE META, 1925
