Page 14 'Twentfv-t o H. 15. S. :mil the Eliuturnz The time is fast approaching when we must say adieu to grand old V. H. S. Four pleasant years have passed since we entered the portals of this school as mere timid Freshmen-four years filled with pleasant associations, delightful experiences, and Wonderful companionships. a We felt something of awe in our regard of the school then. And now we have come to an understanding of this feeling. It is part of our being, it is intermingled with, and is a part of, all the ties that bind us to our high school. It is partly of gratitude-gratitude to our teach- teachers, strong men and women who are devoting their lives to the betterment of ours. People of vision, with limitless patience and a knowledge of our weaknesses, trying to make us stronger and more use- ful, and trying to teach us to see the beautiful and useful in life. It is partly friendship. The spirit of friendship is perhaps the greatest force that we encounter. The associations of high school life are conducive to the forming of lasting friendships, friendships that will endure through the years to come, and benefit everyone concerned. We have a friendship for the school as an individual, greater than our friendship for any of the individuals that compose it. It is partly duty. The sense of duty is supreme. Our school life aside from teaching us our duty to our teachers, teaches us our duty to ourselves and our duty to our country. It is partly veneration. We have worked to build that frail structure called school spirit. And thus We forged the chain Which binds us to the school. Her athletics, the desire to win, and the joy of effort, all link us to our school with strong ties. It will not be easy to leave V. H. S. And it seems that every June we must remember the school and our graduation. But we must leave. The years to come will be busy ones, yet there will be moments of quiet solitude when we dream of our youthful days and as We trace down the procession of the years, our own path and the paths of those who are now our close associates ,We shall see that the world is good and that old V. H. S. is one of the best parts of it. p ,
