' AI-IISTORY or THE CLASS or '23 HE Class of 1923 must bid farewell to Sherman High School. And at the time of parting it is only natural that we should look back over our high school days with a little touch of pride at the things that we have accomplished and perhaps a pang of regret that they are now ended. When we came from junior High School, we were fittingly compared with the verdant isles of the South Sea. The juniors, with the traditional feeling of responsibility which characterizes their class, felt it to be their duty to impress us with a sense of our lack of sophistication, and right well did they perform the duty. We bowed to the earth in our humility and made our mere existence a cause for the most abject apologies. But, as Socrates remarked to his desciples, 'Tempus fugif' and the long, long session finally came to a close and our verdant hue was dimmed to the more sombre color of juniors. We had reached the estate of human beings. Our football players made good on the gridiron, and we managed to take a credit- able part in every branch of the school activities, and an ef ficieut faculty saw to it that we became more or less proficient in the arts and sciences. The pleasant months passed swiftlyg we became seniors. Much water has flowed 'neath the Tiber Bridge since that day in September, 1920, when we came to high school as sophomores. We feel that we may justly be proud of our record. We have marks on every mile-post along the way, and now that we are passing we have consciousness that not a single standard of virtue and achieve ment has been lowered at Sherman High School by reasons of our short- coming. Perhaps those who-.come after us may do better,-it is our hearty wish that they may do so. l Vi 1 tl la Tl fir . tl . ll: -Historian ' , CLASS OFFICERS i l Bvnon VESTAL .... ............................... .....
