IN MEMOBIAM we-- To know them was to love them. Eddie and Otis are no longer in our midst-and yet-wherever we are, they are there. Their cheerful dispositions, friendly manners, and happy smiles are painted on our hearts in glowing colors that time cannot erase. They are missed by all with whom they came in Contact and they shall never be forgotten. Into my heart's treasury I slipped a coin. That time cannot take Nor thief purloin: O! better than the minting Of a gold-crowned king ls the sate-kept memory Of a lovely thing. 1 OTIS ZEIGLER September 30, 1921 . . .

CLASS HISTORY, 1939 Four years ago! But inlretrospect it seems more like four months. How true is the saying tempus fugit. We have worked as a group to promote cooperation, mold character, and to help improve the future citizenship of our town and community. In September of 1934 we approached the threshold of our Freshman year with great anticipation. Most Freshmen look forward to high school days as a time of fun and enjoyment. Did some one suggest studying? Not we. After a delightful three months vacation we returned as Si1ly Soph- mores, and upon returning we made new acquaintances and friends. In try- ing to increase our knowledge we gave a colored minstrel, which came off with a bang. The Iunior Class was considered an organization, through the election of class officers. It was organized until some one began to filibuster, and how! We were able to participate in the social whirl-wind. This was due to the organization of the Sub-Deb Club. But to our minds the grandest of all is the Senior year. The height of dignity, without being dignified, might describe the present Senior Class. Our main purpose thus far is to produce an Annual that will be treasured by eachland every member of the class. It has a much deeper meaning because it was the goal toward which two who lost their lives strove. This emptiness over the loss of the two grand personages is one that can never be filled. Out of thirty-eight Seniors, eleven started out in the Primer to-gether. That, my dear children, was eleven years ago, in 1928. We shall look forward to the class of the year 1938-39 with the same anticipation as that evidenced upon entering high school. We are an appreciative group to all those who made these four memorable years possible. Happy sailing to the Class of '38-'39. ll
