The TRUMPET - I Q.. Senior Academic Class History Continued from Page II After much discussion and parley the follow- ing oliicers were elected to govern the affairs of the class: President ........... ...... J oseph Brislin Vice President ..... .... F lorence Hoben Secretary ......... ..... J ames Garrahan Treasurer .... .... M ichael Johnson journalist .... .... D oris McKenna Journalist .......... . .......... Edward Lynch Our first act was to establish a new custom -the institution of a year book, which would place our name in the history of Saint Gabriel's to last through the years. Work began at once with great fervor and enthusiasm, for all were eager to do something for the honor of thiis, our beloved school. Later we formed Debating, Dramatic, and Glee Clubs, which resulted in several interesting and instructive debates, plays, and programs. Then came Hallowe'en when the class held a bake sale to aid in financing the Year Book. It exceeded the highest expectations of the most sanguine and it seemed as though success was reaching out to us. Preceding the Christmas vacation we had a dellightful time, even though it seemed rather childish, when we had a Christmas tree from which a real Santa Claus gave each one in the class a small gift. We realized the full meaning then of the old adage, that, A little fun now and then is relished by the best of men. The happy days of vacation passed quickly and again we returned only to find mid-year 6 i N xr, exams staring us in the face. After five eatless days and sleepless nights we were all joyful again. Success was the keynote to our Valentine Card Party and Dance, and the decorating har- monized very beautifully with the occasion. Then came another event when we held our food sale on March 16. This proved more of a suc- cess than we even dared to hope. Then for the last time, came our trial by the jurors of the Catholic University. Although they seemed merciless we escaped with the sentence Not Guilty - Acquitted. The broad sea of life confronted us and we were cast out upon the madly raging waters. Our days are spent in Saint Gabriel's. We have rejoiced, we have suffered, we have made mistakes, we hope we have corrected them. Each class in its career achieves some distinc- tion and brings honor to S. G. H. S. Then may it be said, that among those classes of greatest renown in the history of this school- the class of 1926 heads the list. Parting is never easy and to part from friends and home is the hardest task of all, and it will not be easy to leave the home and friends we learned to love so well. Farewell Saint Gabriel's. May your name shine forth in the very portals of heaven and may the Trumpet proclaim your glory to the world. MAME A. JORDAN, '26, XXVI . Illllllllllll X Q Q Q f , X Q T521 .
