T H E O R A C L E At last, we have reached the dignified heights of Seniors. We find our ranks reduced from the original twenty-eight boys to only fifteen, and the num- ber of girls from thirty-six to twenty-four. ' The first important matter which confronted us was how many units each had. Mr. Webb's oflice was thronged with Seniors, eager to find out how many subjects each had to take so that at the end of the year we might not be told that we could not graduate. Next was the Class organization. As President, we chose Chan and time has proven that we have not made a mistake. He has been very successful, except for the lack of forceful words by which he might induce us to pay our Class dues promptly. After the Class had become more settled we began to think about whether it would be possible for us to have an Annual or not. Of course, it was a lack of finances as usual. The subject was fully discussed, and after a few convincing speeches by the Business Manager, Red Vest, we took as our motto, Where There is a Will, There is a Way. We held bake sales and candy sales, and both Roanoke and Salem were thoroughly canvassed for Ads. With this money and a few Class fees, we came up to the requirements and the Annual was making its way by the middle of November. After this, all went well until the first reports appeared. Physics has been the topic of Senior conversation from that day until this and will continue to be until each of us has a diploma tucked safely under his arm on the night of May the thirty-first. One of the first questions asked after the first reports was, Who passed enough subjects to play football? But, of course, all Seniors were eligible. Mid-year Exams are over! Still talking Physics with some few talking French. We were all excitement over who should be valedictorian of our Class. One morning Mr. Webb announced to us that Miss Sarah Goodwin had won the honor of being the most brilliant member of the Class of '23. We all congratulate her and we sincerely hope that her college career will be filled with as many honors as her high school career has been. We are beginning to wonder how the Faculty will get along next year without Letcher strolling through the halls at all hours of the dayg Stratton's dignityg Charlotte's giggling: Joe as Business Manager of the High Schoolg l-larmon's debatingg lrvine's accents, Bill Seller's witg the high ideals and good-behavior of the Class as a whole. But you will hear all these things before june and we can't help wondering who will take our places next year. As we go out into the world from our high school life, we go with hearts loyal to S. H. S. and its Faculty: loyal to every member of '23g and with the hope that those who come after us may feel that they have derived as many benefits from their four years in High School as we have. -HISTORIAN. 1, C331
