6 THE CRIMSON RAMBLER ' N SCHOOLDAYS RUTH LIBBY, Valedirfcmzn I wonder if anyone ever realizes the value of his schooldays until they are over: really knows just what help they lave been and what good times they have furnished?

The friendships formed at school are thc-.sc that last a lifetime. The friends that one can go to, to be helped when one lxas been unfortunate as well as to be praised when one has done some- thing great. Friendship is what makes school life so happy.
