6 THE PARTING SHOT Editorial In one of our meetings, the question of a class memorial arose, and natux-ally the first thing that appealed to us was to give a play, a precedent long ago established by former classes. Many objections to this arose and were discussed at length until we finally decided to br«ak the custom, and print a book to defray the necessary expenses. As a result we have this pamphlet. In it we have endeavored to put such remembrances as will be pleasant in after years. We do not give it to you with apology, but with a hearty desire for your approval. Be- yond the memories which remain, this book w ill be the principal connect- ing link between the members of our class and between them and their high school days. Of necessity then, this volume should be a record of the pleasant incidents which have fallen to our share. We now place it at your mercy, hoping that all jokes will be received in the same spirit that they are given. EMMA BELLOWS. Salutatory We, the Class of 1914, extend to you, our friends, a most hearty wel- come to our last exercises as Seniors of Southampton High School. It is a source of pride to us to feel that the efforts of four long years of hard study have been successful. We have just gone through one of the hardest weeks ox our lives, and regents examinations are “has beens”; nut, now, with hearts llight and minds free from care, we shall endeavor to make this, the last afternoon that we spend here together, an enjoyable one in oi'der that we may, in after lxfe, look back to it with pride and pleasure. We are glad you are to spend this hour with us, and beg that you do not take offence at any of the things which may be said by us, but re- ceivc them as they arc given, in a good natured and friendly spirit. To- day neither principal nor teachers can reprimand us for our actions. It is our day, that of the class of 1914, and we cordially invite you to share it with us. BERNARD HIRSCHFELD.
