Editorial AST year the pupils of Pleasant High .School published the first volume MXN of our annual, THE ECHO. ' The pupils published it With no experience to aid them, and this may account for the few mistakes that were made. fQ , The Echo Staff of 1921 has hoped to eliminate these mistakes and to ful- 'ifx-1'e,ef'o H11 our hope of raising the standard of education in our High School. The work of this year is being placed before the people of the community by the Senior and Junior classes of the High School. In the educational society of human minds there is an unwritten law, which has been followed by many schools, as a custom for many years, giving the publication of .a school paper to the Junior Class. Owing to the small number composing the Junior Class it is necessary to publish this annual by the creative power of the two combined classes. The success of this work has depended a great deal upon the assistance of the enterprisers of education. We especially wish to tender our thanks and best wishes to the merchants who have so amply offered their financial aid. To Miss: Wytten- bach, faculty manager and Staff adviser, we desire to place before her our oierings for her sound advice and the concentration which has characterized her work during the past year. Toward the close of this yean, these books will be distributed to those people who answer the call of Pleasant High School. The Echo Staff realizes that it is their duty to make this book serve as a 'mirror that will reflect with clearness the Work that has been done during the year of 1921. It is an old adage that breaking a mirror will bring seven years of bad luck . Let it be our ambition to continue the publication of this book and in this way, prosperity will enter the halls of Pleasant High School and will abide there as the guiding star of the pupils who will come to Pleasant to lay the corner-stone of their success. With these few words we pass these books .among you.. We have tried to make this book a fitting memory of the class of 1921 which will soon leave Pleasant High School to begin their journey over the rough road of life.-f-T. B. To The Echo Staff When the Echo's last joke is written, And those whofve been slammed will he When the Echo's last slam is done, furious. When the last of the proofs are cor- They will come with fire in their eyes, rected, They will swear that we're mean and And to live once ag.ain We'll begin. revengeful We shall rest Cand faith we shall need And all that we've said has been lies. ith And each one who has been mentioned Just rest for a moment or two Will wait for .a chance to get square, Till the Echo comes out in April, And those who were not so unfortunate And our troubles will begin anew. Will be sore because they're not there. And tho there is no one to praise us And tho all creation shall blame us, We're poorer than last year in money, Our labor has brought us no fame We are sure there is reward for us somewhere. A halo perhaps 'for each one, For all year we have worked and worried, O'er ai task that has not been all fun, V -T.. B.
