I The time draws nigh when with fond goodbye We leave these dear halls, Washington, And scatter far as the dead leaves are, When our happy school days are done. And so we want you to truly know That we will love you where e'er we go. Chorus: We love you, Washington, And we will all endeavor To keep what we have won,- Honor and truth,-forever. Though we go into a new life we will Try to keep obeying your teachings still: So, till our lives be done, We'll love you, Washington. II Till time grows old and the sun is cold You'll live in mem'ry and heart Surpassed by noneg all our work and fun Grow dearer as days depart, And always, ever, the whole year through We'll think, dear Washington, most of you.

2 f -iTTFi2i.4..jgg1l Glbrunnlngp nf the Glass of Blanuarp '22 On January 28, 1918, we, ninety lively Freshmen, became citizens of Washington Hig.h School. We came fro-m various scattered grammar schools. The first few days, the honorable Seniors, taking advantage of our manifest ignorance, sent us about on wild goose chases to diverse parts of the building. But, at the third assembly, we made our first impression on the school at large -by rendering Santa Lucia in what we thought was harmony. We wondered why the entertainment the Seniors gave us on Feb- ruary 18, 1918, was called a Freshman Frolic, because the Seniors froliced like spring lambs. After several days' anxiety and misery during examinationsf we became Sophomores, January 27, 1919. Here we spent ten months of hard study. The end of our second football season found us true Washingtonians. R-ah! Rah! On January 26, 1920, having again passed the scrutiny of our eagle-eyed teachers, we beca-me Juniors. So that we might know more fully who were who in the class, the girls gave a get-to-gether party on January 7, 1921. The apple pie a la-mode was enjoyed by all. We stepped gravely into -the building on January 31, 1921, for we were Seniors, though as yet unorganized. Mr. Boyd called us into solemn conclave to elect officers, February 17, 1921. Our noble Pres- ident was Robert fTriple 'LJ Maiutz: our small but fire-eating Vice- President, Lois fShortieJ Day: our pen-wise Secretary, Florence fFuz- ziej Fitzgerald: our honest Treasurer, Charles CHandso,meJ Norton: our weighty Editor, Corbly ffThI'68 CJ Church: our skilful artist, Gladys tBonheurl Young: our lyric Poetess, Doris tDoJ Ogdeng our Historians, Alice Soderwall and Fraln Walker: our witty Prophets, Katherine-Jane QK. JJ Seel and Harold CScottJ Cook: and our daunt- less Sergeant-at-Arms, Everett CPul1backJ Baker. Our honorary mem- bers were Miss C. E. Lamrberson, alias 'Dean: Miss E. K. Lafmmers, alias Adv. : Mr. A. R. Hedrick, cell 11. April 1, the boys amazed the school with the Biggest Show on Earth. May 1, they entertained the girls, the main features being the dancing school tProfessor J. R. Keating, Masterj and an old-time May-pole dance. On April 6, we all shone forth before the school our resplendent gold class pins and our silky .ribbons of zephyr and sea-green. Again we weathered the storm of examinations. ' The bright d-awn of 'September sixth revealed us to 'the school as THE SENIORSK' On October 6. we chose for our class flower, the Ophelia Rose because we sympathized with Hamlet. Our turn to frolic came. We entertained the Freshmen in the Gym, October 13, with frozen milk, cooked sugar, jazz and other t'sober a-musements. Merry Christimasf'-4December 25. Hello, Santa.
