31509334113 Twcnly-five CLASS HISTORY NOT AT THE HEIGHTS BUT CLIMBING ow swiftly the years pass by! They crowd upon one another's heels in their haste to slip into the dim past. Before we write the ending to this chapter in our lives. let us look back for a minute and reminisce. Young and inexperienced, we entered high school, and now, as we graduate into the world to take our places as men and women, we leave our youth buried here. How dear the old familiar halls seem as we wander through them for the last time. Here is peace and security, but outside-what? A wave of nostalgia, of longing to remain in the present life, sweeps through us. Here we learned our lessons, not merely from books but from life itself: we learned to live in harmony with our fellow-students. VV hat could be a more valuable thing to know when one becomes an integral part of a community? In this place we have been taught what to expect from life and how to meet it. Perhaps we cannot see now how all of the lessons we studied may be put to practical use in the outside world. Many of them are impracticable and were merely given to teach us to do constructive thinking. And what good times we have had together! Will we ever forget the Prom? Soft music-bright dresses fluttering about on a background of black-happy voices! One thrills to the memory of it. Now has come the parting of the ways. It is only with pain and regret that we prepare to leave this place so filled with memories and friends. Perhaps We have not done all that we should-in the haste of life much is overlooked. Never- theless, we have strived each day to do our best, that we might make our school proud of us. Though we are not at the heights, we are climbing.
