n.n. s. ' 'run courrr 1 9 2 3 Senior Class History and Poem Four years ago we started as pilgrims on the mighty road of learning to one great goal---S U C C ,ESS . Perspective had so dimmed our view, we saw our light to be but four short years awayg but still within the distance it is dim. Our pleasures and our troubles have so blended as to make a perfect whole. When Juniors, our members gave the best Junior-Senior banquet that has ever been given in the annuals of R. H. S. The class of '23 is the largest that has yet been graduated from the Rupert High School. Its size has brought .certain complexities which as Seniors, coming classes will suffer, making this allowance for our size, we have the livest class in R. H. S. - Time will show our class to have more than her fair share of renowns . Our colors are Purple and White, and our motto is Strive. POEM 'Tis close of day and all have said good-by, The school bell tolls its mournful last adieug The students wave farewell to you and me, The class who to the school was ever true. As Freshmen they would taunt usg call us green, And little babies, we oft' got the name, As Sophomores we showed them a good team, XV e had arisen from disgrace and shame. Faithful the Senior class of twenty-three Carried the work which others here begun, They're gone, we from our high school days are free To battle 'till another fight is won. And every year our aim much higher grew, First in the distance gleamed a spark of light And day by day advancing nearer drew, And now the goal is chining far more bright. May we remember that good motto: Strive , Also, the pansy which to us is dear, Long may they stay to guide us all thru lifeg Remaiin to help us and be ever near. ' Four years we battledg high school days are o'er, Another Senior class has won the fight, The shining goal we've traced up to the door, As guarded by the purple and the white. MARY I. HANSEN. h Page Twenty-Om'
