THE ECHO An Attempt to Explain Before you turn another page, oh readers of this book, Before you take another peek at what you want to look, We Seniors want to thank you very sincerely, For all the help you’ve given us so generously. We hope that you’ll enjoy the bit, That is to be enjoyed, And that you’ll not take sore offense At what so long we’ve been employed. We’ve tried to scatter here and there, Some scraps of truth, some thoughts of care; We’ve also tried to mingle in Some lines wre fear no praise will win! But all was done in jest and fun, To rouse no anger in anyone! And so, dear readers of this book, We bid you now—go on and look!

THE ECHO 9 Salutatory Members of the Board, Faculty, Parents and Friends: It is with deep regret that we realize that tonight we are making the last appearance of our High School career. Our search for knowledge to fit us better for the battles of life has been beset by many obstacles and disappointments, but we have finally reached the goal we set for ourselves four years ago. In deep appreciation of your efforts to help us reach this goal and for the interest which you have shown in our success, we, the Class of '31, extend to you, tonight, a sincere welcome. WALLACE ALDRICH. Valedictory “May we do our duty in that state of life unto which it shall please God to call us.” As we, the class of 1931, stand here tonight we have reached not the end but the Commencement of our lives. It is pleasant to be able to look back upon the past and at the same time to see the future dawning bright before us. For four short years we have traveled together. Now we have come to the crossroads, where each one must choose his own way and do his duty as he sees it. We have been well prepared for our struggle with the hardships of life and as our last act as students in this High School, we wish to thank all those who have helped us so willingly. Mr. Sabine, we wish to thank you for the time and effort you have spent in helping us to go to Washington, a trip long looked forward to and much enjoyed by all. We wish to thank our friends and the townspeople who made this trip possible. We also extend our hearty thanks to the members of the Board of Education. And finally, we wish to thank the members of the faculty of the High School who have done their work so ably and have put forth every effort to make us better men and women. We are very enthusiastic at the prospect of going out into the world. But are naturally somewhat sad at leaving our school and our friends behind. Yet it is with a feeling of pride that we extend to all our heartfelt thanks and sincere farewell. ELSIE PUGSLEY.
