all The 1917 “Copa de Orn” HE 1917 “Copa de Oro” greets you. Tis with a glad heart that we say this, yet ‘tis with a tear for we are on the threshold of life. South Pasa- dena High School, with all its splendid environments, has given to us knowledge, efficiency, and spirit for four years and our time has come to depart. So with this frail volume of the “Copa de Oro” we greet you and at the same time say farewell. But a word about the book. First and foremost we must extend our apprecia- tion to our advisor, Miss Agnes F. Murdoch, for her ever willing and helping counsel in the compilation of this book. To the Art Staff and Mrs. Emma M. Bartlett we wish to express our gratitude. We are proud of their work and further mention of this department will be made in later pages. Then the Busi- ness Manager who so successfully financed the whole affair, we thank with all our hearts. And to Mr. Kinney, our loyal Principal, the Class of 1917 wishes to extend their appreciation and gratitude for his help in both a literary and a busi- ness way. In this edition of the “Copa de Oro” the staff has endeavored to present hap- penings of all kinds that will be of interest to those who glance at it in the years to come. So we'll tarry no longer on this note of introduction and farewell; with heart, mind, soul and body, and in the grand old spirit of 1776, judge the contents for yourself.

Do we make our own opportunities as we are so often advised, or do we seize those which present themselves to us? After all, opportunity is not a tangible thing to be accepted by some and passed along by others. Rather, it has its personal appeal to the individual just so far as it has any relation to his work, It exists in the separate mind amenable to each need, and useful only as a stepping stone for a particular line of endeavor. So, when the class, as Juniors, adopted the motto they had no feeling that they should lay siege to every school activity; or that they should adopt a policy Page Ten
