Y 1 IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 1 IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII A Long Deferred W ora' of Appreciation E who are about to graduate, salute you, O members of the Faculty. Now that we are no longer dependent upon you for grades and favors, we can unburden ourselves of many things which, coming at any other time, would cause us to be numbered among that most despised and miserable clan, The Jerkersf' All that a Terrill boy holds cursed, all that he feels he can afford to look down upon, be he himself ever so lowly, is summed up in that one worcl, jerker. The jerker- branding habit started out to be reasonable, but has come to be anything but that. It started out to abolish an existent evil and the rebound of it has caused a greater and more noxious evil to take root in its stead. Thus much by way of showing our position. What we want to say here is that, relieved for once of the scorn of two hundred boys, we wish to doff our respective hats to you and tell you what good folks you are. In many in- stances you're not only good folks, but you're good fellows as well- therein proclaiming your independence of the old pedagogical notion that a teacher is merely a taskmaster, a being aloof, whose dignity would totter to its fall at the slightest unbending. We want you to know that we ap- preciate you and your efforts for us during this and past years, to assure you of our respect, to promise that we shall have pleasant remembrances of you in years to come, and to hope for you the best of good fortune in whatever you undertake. Cheap enough, all this, as words, but valuable when those words are meant as we mean them. 26 65 mag Egg

What class could ever boast of as good looking a president as can the 'L6eIE? or such handsome men as Robert Lenoir and Louis Burr Paine? It can not e one. It is without a doubt true that the '16 class was the most athletic class that has ever gone out from the Terrill School. Twelve of the Fifteen letter men in footballg four of the First string men in basket ball, and seven men of the baseball nine are in its number, and its president won the tennis tournament. Along other lines of school activities, the '16 class can claim a large part of the 'I' Glee Club, all the students in the orchestra, all the assistants to Harmon, and over half the Terrill School News Staffs I 28
