T. H. S. AS I FIRST SAW IT HE first day that I ever saw Timber Township High School building at a close range was the first day of school in September, nineteen twenty-three. It was the first day that students had evere graced the halls of Timber. That morning I walked up an ungraveled, unshaded pathway and gazed at a massive, brick structure situated on a level, treeless plot of Eve acres. I was thrilled by the naked, sing- ular beauty of the building. As I advanced nearer, I espied a row of large, cement letters placed high upon the front of the building. Those bold, impressive letters seemed to speak a great deal by their plain. clear-cut design. At that moment I became proud of the fact that I was now a member of that school and that feeling has never left me. The sunlight gleamed upon volumes of window-panes that made up about one third of any side of the building: and it shone white upon the smooth cement and dull red bricks. I wondered if it would look so clean and new a few- years hence. The two entrances at the front which were identically the same seemed to be persons welcoming the pupils with outstretched arms and turning them into a nobler and greater life by their sug- gestion of knowledge. As I stood on the steps of the south entrance I thought of a time when Timber would be sur- rounded by a green lawn and rows of trees but I knew that it could never mean so much to me in that adornment as it did then in its own, naked, youthful splendor. RECENT IMPROVEMENTS The growth and development of a new institution is simi- lar to that of an individual. Progress is made slowly and pos- sibly this is for the best. An individual should not reach a point where improvement is impossible. Neither should an in- stitution be perfected in a year. As we look at Timber High we see that much is to be done before a perfect institution is evolved. VVe feel that a decid- ed step has been taken toward this end during the term just closed. The Board of Education has made plans to beautify the school grounds. A drive way, filled with red shale, has been constructed on the south side of the campus. Many shrubs have been set out and in time we shall have more. Our plan also calls for many trees. In time Timber will have a beautiful campus. one of which every person in the com- munity should be proud. MABEL FULLER. Class of 1927. A ONE ACT DRAMA Scene: Assembly.
