PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE FOUR years have passed swiftly by and we, who once entered our dear Alma Mater as students with little knowledge of the great school of life, now prepare to enter that greatest school in the universe—a school where no kind teacher lends a helping hand to those that stumble and fall by the wayside; a school where everyone is judged by that which he alone accomplishes. It is a school of countless hardships and trials that can only be overcome by persistent effort and struggle on the part of each individual. We look forward with eager eyes to the day when we may enter that school as bigger and better individuals with all our once hidden qualities.-then evident to those with whom we associate. . We have looked forward to the day when we receive our diplomas; we have prepared for that day and have had it as a goal. Now that day is at hand, and you expect great joy. Yet there is really a great sorrow in everyone’s heart, for leaving our Alma Mater is like being turned away from one’s home and friends. We go however with a firm purpose and a goal in mind. We will struggle all the more to be successful and reach our end. Is it not said. “A child’s actions reflect on its parents?” We will strive our utmost, bathed in the most illustrious reflections of our character and high ideals. We must always try to live up to the lesson we have learned while we were at Amboy High. “Service is the key that unlocks the treasure house of everything.” And although we leave our school in body our memories are always there. Albert Jochen, President of 1925. ----------o---------- G It’s great to be graduating. R you glad you’ve finished four long years? A good reason I'd like for your hesitating— D you mean to say you’re going to shed tears? U ought to be glad that you’ve finished problems, A lot of other work you’re rid of too. T think that we must leave this place forever, I feel rather downhearted and blue, O I said I'd not cry. I said that for weeks and weeks, N after all 1 tried. Did you say I’ve teardrops on my cheeks? ----------o--------------------- B. Jorgensen. SENIOR INTELLIGENCE TEST These are the answers given in a test asking students to define a few subjects found in our curriculum : English—A course that is distinguished in that all pupils must take it four years—more if you wish. Problems—A course inflicted on Seniors only. At times we wish we weren’t Seniors. Latin—A course instituted to revive our interest in Oratory. Chemistry—A course which aims to teach how to cultivate a more acute sense of smell. Algebra—New way of writing hieroglyphics. Geometry—A course which is preparatory to taking art lessons. This course teaches you how to draw lines and circles. Drawing—It is studied in a room where the walls are decorated with futurist and cubist pictures. Music—A course which cultivates our voice so that we may yell louder and more correctly down in the “Gym,” also when going through the halls. I. Wood.
