THE ECHO. EDITORIAL Vacation is here once more, and with it comes the graduation of another large class. Their faces will surely be missed when next term comes with its new plans and enforce- ments. The graduates have had not a small part in school activities, especially in boys’ and girls’ athletics, where they will be sadly missed. .A glance at the athletic depart- ment of this issue will show that they have made and helped to make many high rec- ords for the glory of our school. With the Commencement number of The Echo, comes another change in the editorial staff. Tere, too, the Seniors will be missed when next term brings about the selection of a new body of workers. However, we feel certain that there are many who are ready, and fully competent to take the places left vacant by them. The editor, therefore, in handing over the responsibility of the paper to the new management, wishes to express her sincere belief in its future success, and the hope that the coming year will see many improvements in its pages. No one could have had a more loyal support than she has had from the staff this term. May the work of the new staff be as har- monious aid as prosperous. We wish everyone a happy vacation and the best of times this summer. Result of Student Body Election May 20, 1910. President—W. Hastings, 51; L. Mermann, 42. First Vice-President—C.

Ma- In Farewell To us, the world is full of beauty ; The flowers that grow, The winds that blow, Are all for us; we know no duty. The seas of bending grain stretch out In billowy wavelets blowing, The laden fruit trees drop their store Of wealth, so richly glowing. The leaves that dance, The lights that glance, Sing songs with jfiy o’erflowing. For us, all things are filled with gladness. The summer sky, The clouds that fly Are lightly gay; we know no sadness. The days of June are warm and sweet, The air with incense filling; Its lazy hours invite us now With bird notes gently trilling. The sunny hills, The merry rills, With jov our hearts are thrilling. To us, the world gives all its treasure. Its ancient lore, Its modern store, Of knowledge deep; ours without measure. Phe gifts to us have been as free As summer sunshine mellow ; The best of all there is we take, More gifts are sure to follow. We know no care, The earth's as fair As spring-time’s fields of yellow. ‘lo us, the world for help is calling. Our play-time’s past, We'll try at last Some work to do, ere play is palling The sunbeams lightly dance with glee While birds their fleetness borrow ; The flowers bloom for you and me, We know no fear nor sorrow. The world is wide And glad, and so We'll wait for the tomorrow.

McDaniels of Santa Rosa, went 5 ft. 534 in. in the high jump, breaking the record. King also broke the record in the hammer-throw with a throw of 129 ft. 8 in. The sprints brought out a bunch of good men. Wilson and Hud- son both won their respective heats in the 1 ] 50 yard dash in the fast tine of 5 2-5 sec- onds. In the finals Hudson, with a poor start, succeeded in getting second place. The relay was as usual the prettiest race of the day. It was won by our crack relay team, which was composed of Hudson, Pot- ter, Clark and Wilson. 5S. Ru Ho (S. has never been beaten in the relay in this lea- eue, nor in the N. W. Sub-League. and it makes no difference whether it is a mile relay or an 880 yard relay.
