THE ORACLE ORACLE STAFF Editor-in-Chief: RALPH GABRIEL. Board of Editors: LAFAYETTE ARGETSINGER ALBERTA J. SMITH ETHEL M. WILSON ARTHUR R. ELLISON EDITORIAL. Seven years have passed since the publishing of the first “Oracle” by the students of the Watkins High School, and as many “Oracles” have appeared, each with its good qualities and each with its de-ficiences. And now, as in its turn the class of '08 gives its efforts to the public, should any be disappointed, we say, “We have done our best.” As will be noticed in the perusing of these pages the “Senior Boast is lacking. This we omitted because we thought that our “Oracle” was the best “Boast” that we would make. But do not think that we are vain or consider our publication as in any way excelling its predecessors because our “Oracle” is different from all these, for we have endeavored to make it the embodiment of our thoughts and purposes, our aims and our desires. We have showed our feelings as we leave our school and friends and have tried to tell a little of what we think of the great world before us. And we leave this “Oracle” to the students and the public, hoping that its pleasantries may be entertaining to many and offensive to none, and sincerely desiring that we have not striven in vain but have done our little share in making our friends happier and better. Our hearty thanks are due to the under classmen who have given us so much encouragement and help. Furthermore, we beg to acknowledge our gratefulness to the Board of Education for their financial aid, without which it would have been impossible to have published this catalogue. And now. heaving a mighty sigh and shaking the ink from our editorial pen, we give the Oracle to the public to judge it as it may. R. G., ’08. W ATKINS HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, Senior Class.
