 Q »?===fr =-----------------■ - -(0 - == 0 Valuta tun) Kind Triends, who are here today to see us close with our exercises the school work of the term, while we welcome your coming and are honored by your presence, we beg of you not to expect too much from students in the way of intellectual performance. We beg of you to overlook our shortcomings “Be to our faults a little blind,” and to our merits, if you find them, very kind. Be satisfied with the intention of my schoolmates to do their best; and, though their best might be better, it is not likely, with the training they have had, to be very bad, unless their bash fulness should get the better of their knowledge. Whether we please you or not, we are glad to see you, and we welcome you to the place where we close our studies for the term. These exercises tonight are meant to add to your amusement, while they form our enjoyment. You may forget them all in a little while, but with us they will be an abiding memory. A triumph won today, however trifling it may be to others, is a serious thing for the victor, for it proves that his industry has been well bestowed and the labor of our teachers Inis not been thrown away. EDYTHE GILKISON 0 0 llsdciuctont The time for the class of 1925 to bid farewell to high school days forever, has come. With it come a pang of regret, a feeling of lonesomeness, a welling of emotions and often a mist before the eyes. How could we look back upon our years of learning, their triumphs and defeats, their joys and their sorrows, the many friendships formed through such associations; and then look ahead, trying to picture an unknown future with all its uncertainties, which will take hold of us and shape our lives, without such a feeling. That would be almost superhuman. We also realize that we are on the verge of separation, never again to meet as the class of ’25. if in the dim distance of time we should all be together, the bond of common interest that now binds us would be lacking. Board of Directors, we know that you have always done all you could for the betterment of our school. We wish you success. Patrons and Citizens, we thank you for the support you have given us and our school. As we enter our new life, may we still have that helping hand? Members of the Faculty, we thank you for the training we have received through your patient and well directed efforts. We honor you, not alone for your authority, but for what you are. We will try to show it by helping others. Underclassmen, we desire to thank you for your friendly companionship during the past. What could we have done without you? We would like to ask that you will sometimes, in the years to come, think of the Class of ’25 Now Classmates, our high school days are over and though we would like to linger here, “To the shortest path and the longest lane, there comes an end.” The time for the parting of our ways has come and we must say the hardest of all words—farewell. It will be remembered by all of us for each time it is uttered it has a new meaning and each time a friendly hand is chisped in goodbye it has a new thrill. Let us then, knowing that this is the last time, forgive and forget a fault a classmate may have, as we clasp his hand wish him farewell and— Godspeed. STELLA EDVALSON Page Twenty-one
