CLASS OF 1901 As each class is graduated and leaves the protecting wing of its Alma Mater, and enters the great university of life, the events associated with this important D6I'iOd seem indelibly stamped upon the memory. But time, the great eraser, slowly dims thoughts of the past, so lest we fcerget, let us fzeeshen the Footprints of Time. When the alumni editor asked me for a history of the Class of 1901 the thought brought home to me more forcibly than ever that it has been thirty-five years since a lucky dozen of us departed from the old brick Temple of Knowledge that used to stand where our beautiful new building is now located, armed with our diplomas, ready to settle all the world's difficulties, and even to regulate the movements of the stars if need be. Do not think the Class af 1901 belongs back with tottering King Tut, even if we were the fifth class to graduate from the old school building. Although We did not have the larger opportunities which the Class of '36 enjoys, we are grateful for those we had and rejoice with them in the greater facilities for an education. One thing cf which we are justly proud is that we gave an oyster supper in the old Methodist church, clear- ing S30.00 which was used to start our present school library. We, the Class of 1901, hope and modestly think that we have fulfilled the expectations of other classmen. Eursel Munns White after being graduated taught in Union county school and at Lapel, Ind.

Nuw I must end these rambling remarks or someone will say what one of our class- mates once said at the close of a lecture by one of the teachers. He asked, Have I c-verlooked anything? Yes, came the r'eply, Several good places to stop. The Class of 1901, through the writer, welcomes you, the Class of 1936, into our alumni with the best wishes for your future. - By Mabel McDill Buck.
