lDlElDlICCATll N ! ff Make new friends, but keep the old, Those are silver, these are gold: New-made friendships, like new wine, Age will mellow and rehne. Friendships that have stood the test- Time and change-are surely best: Brow may wrinkle, hair grow gray, Friendship never knows decay. For 'mid old friends, tried and true, Once more we our youth renew. But old friends, alas, may die, New friends must their place supply. Cherish friendship in your breast, New is good, but old is best: Make new friends. but keep the old, Those are silver, these are gold. RIENDSHIP is the subject of many poems and essays written by some of the world's finest authors. Of all the memorable lines that have been written, none are sweeter than the ones quoted above -none have a more direct application to friendships formed in high school. Upon entering high school we cultivated many new friendships which have endured throughout the four years. Although we shall, Without doubt, make many more in the years to come, these high school friendships will always remain dear to us. There are ties of affection binding us to our instructors and fellow-students which time cannot sever. High school days have brought us friends who have inspired us to live better lives, to accomplish greater things-friends of whom we wish to be worthy. We feel their influence in our lives: and wherever we may roam, we shall never forget them. To these dear friends. to these lasting friendships, we dedicate the 1931 Crest.

Many are the achievements for which these energetic people strive individually: but, for their settlement, all have the same aim: to make it a hap- pier, better place in which to live and work. We students of Peoria High School are the in- habitants of this thriving village, of which we are all justly proud. Because each of us does his utmost to make our school a friendly, cheerful place in which to study, we take the liberty of comparing ourselves to Indians, who, of all peoples, best typify love for and loyalty to their race. 'Thus in the development of this book, we por- tray our friendship theme by depicting our school as an Indian village lying peaceably surrounded by the fires of friendship. Our four classes are repre- sented by the Indian children: the faculty is our digni- fied advisory council, by whose judgment we are guided. In our organizations we work together in a spirit of good fellowship as when, peace pipe in hand, Indians hold their tribal Pow Wow. Student activities afford us a festive native war danceg and in the same gay and sportive mood, we offer our young brave to compete with the athletes of rival tribes. The features correspond to the Medicine Man of the Indian village, for they keep up the spirits of our students: and as news of other tribes is brought by the Indian runner, the messages of our patrons are brought to our readers through our section of adver- tisements. We have kept a concise record of the important events that have occurred in our camp during the year, and about these we have built our book. Now as the sun sets upon our high school career, we Seniors present this 1931 Crest with the hope that it will give you the pleasure it has given us.
