To the Seniors As you are about to leave the “little red school house” to go out into the wide, wide world, we the Juniors, who are to have the privilege of taking your honored seats, feel that we should give you just a few parting words of suggestion. Having had so much more experience than you, we feel more than competent to hand you a few remarks which we trust you will deign to heed as life thrusts its problems before you. To the Senior Class in general. If you wish to make a success in life and have the name of your class held in the highest esteem, you will have to work harder than you have in the past four years. George Moore, we urge you to be fast in nothing but typewriting. It never pays. Maurice Long, in your dignity, although you will make your way through the world by means of your gift of gab, you should once in a while agree with other people. Freda and Elizabeth, always remember that red hair is more attractive than a red headed temper. Elva, always let your music tune you up to work in harmony with the world and never in discord. Leland, you will find that your habits of sleeping when other people, especially teachers, are trying to talk to you and also your habit of singing when others are trying to make the best of their time, are habits which you should try to overcome. We might give definite advice to each and every member, he needs its help, however we, will refrain from this. It is difficult to speak without telling the truth, and how the truth can hurt sometimes. We know you will not be offended by the brotherly and sisterly advice we have handed out. We are wishing you Seniors the best of luck as you leave Tecumseh High. She will miss you and we will try to fill your places. Come back at times to see how we are succeeding. We will fully expect to hear of the success of the various members of the Class of ’27.

1 he 1 hirteenth Chair’’ ‘•One of the best plays ever presented in Tecumseh,” was the comment which followed the presentation of “The Thirteenth Chair” by the Junior Class. The play is a difficult one and requires skill in presenting; however the cast fulfilled the highest hopes. Each member of the players portrayed the character assigned him in a manner which left little to be desired. The plot of the play gets under way early. A “fake” seance has been arranged in the home of Roseoe Crosby with the intent of forcing a possible confession from the murderer of Spenctr Lee. While in the dark, another murder m committed. The search starts for the guilty party. The suspense of the audience is h?ld until the final curtain. Suspicion alights first on one and then on another of the party. The instrument with which the murder was committed is not to be found. Madam La Grange at her wit's end plans a fake trance. Through her efforts the guilty party is forced to a confession in the final dramatic scene.
