THE ECHO distinguished itself. In dramatics some of its members have shown remarkable ability, and no play has been put on without its representatives. Several students have won fame in speaking, both in competition with their fellow-students and in competition with those outside the school. In athletics the class has been unusually successful. In every sport where physical strength and mental alertness were essential, or where speed and accuracy were necessary, its teams have been foremost. On the diamond and on the gridiron, on the gymnasium floor and on the cinder path, men of the class of '24 have been prominent and have helped to bring victory to the College. For example the basketball team finished high in the inter-class race for three years, and as a fitting climax to its career, it swept through all opposition in the 1924 tournament and won without apparent effort. As a keen mind goes with a well-developed body, these athletes are almost certain of success in any line of mental endeavor. Such is the present graduating class of Seattle College High School. Soon they will pass out of the High School for the last time. Many, let us hope, will return next year to pursue their studies yet further in the College department, but never again may we expect to see the whole class united together. Some may seek other institutions of higher education, but most of those who do not return will find it necessary to enter immediately into the busy world of trade, there to put into practice the tenets that have been instilled into their minds by their years of Catholic training. And we may well expect that they will meet with abundant success in the world; for the education which they have received is essentially the same as the one which for centuries has been turning out the highest type of Christian gentlemen; men whose lives are molded upon the principles of honor and righteousness; men of character, with courage to do their duty and to hold unerringly to the path pointed out to them by their conscience. If these young men, so soon to enter the lists of the world, preserve the standards of their past, they need have no fear of failure. For them no task will be too difficult, no obstacle too great, while they arc spurred on by the memory of their early instruction. The teachers who have guided them during these four years, and the companions with whom they have associated, will all exercise a beneficial influence, and though their faces will no longer be seen, their words of advice and their sincere friendship will always be remembered.
