SENIORS 1-' l in 1. in X I g X . .x - THE EMBLEM Pagenve if sl ' . .Q ig' 'H ill 1 Q ft! ' I -ri ,rw 'liacrsga IN a very short time your high school days will be over. Soon the members of the Class of 1920 will be scattered all around. Some of you will go to higher institutions of learning and some of you will start working as soon as you can get a job. In the course of ten years you will probably not even remember the names of more than two or three of your high school classmates. Each will be filling his place in this busy world and there will not be much time for you to sit down and call back to memory those days spent in high school. When the class first organized there were many more than at present. Dur- ing the four years, some moved away but many more dropped out. You have stayed with the class, have reached the goal of your high school career and you will be the ones who must go out and prove to the world what Lewis High graduates can do. Will you make good or will you fall down on the job? That depends on you. In high school your work was not half so hard as it will be during the rest of your life unless you inherit much money. A noted army officer stated that at NVest Point reunions, of each class, the members of that class generally stood in the same rank comparatively as at graduation. NVill your class be like that or will some person with only an aver- age grade rise above his classmates and gain fame and renown while the honor pupils are regarded by the world as only average? That, however, only time can tell. As you leave Lewis High School let every one do his best and forge ahead as best he can. Farewell, Class of 1929, and remember your motto: Lift not Lean! At this time The Emblem wishes to thank Miss O'Neil and all students who did any typing for it. NVithout this co- operation we would not have been able to get The Emblems to press as prompt- ly as we have done. Again, we thank you all.
