if, ll Ag If I A SENIOR'S REMINISCENCE On one bright day in the long ago, When I was a kid, as you all know I went to school by my mother's side, For the apron strings were about untied. There in the room for the very first time I met the school ma'am of ancient rhyme. She lacked the things that made her grim, And goodness me, she was not thin. I fell for her from the very first day, As she helped to put all my things away. She showed me all about the room Before I thought, it was full noon. And as the days and weeks went by To hold my friends I dared not cry, Joys and sorrows we learned to share, Of others to think, their burdens to bear. Each year new friends, some false, some true We learned to love, and friendships grew. Instructors, too, would come and go, Examples for us, ideals, you know. Now as we stand at the top of the hill, We all look back with a homesick thrill, Remembering that we can never more Experience the joys and sorrows of yore. Then as I slowly turn to see What the future has in store for me, New visions like a mirage stand clear That call and beckon, they may cost dear. We will go forward whate'er the cost: If all stands still, then all is lostg ,Tis sad but true, few heed the call: Fame is for those that give their all. MARTHA Hows, ,32 4 I Page T zcel ve

VALEDICTORIAN John is well deserv'ng the honor of holding the worthy position of Valedictorian. Through four years of hard work and patient study he has at- tained this mark, and we, his classmates, con- gratulate him on his success. Although he was in earnest with his school work, he did not let this keep him from participating in many other high school activities. He has always been appreciated for his musical ability. He has been a faithful member of both Band and Orchestra all four years of his high school career. Since he is talented in so many lines we know that he will make his mark. JOHN RANCK A Student who studies hard for four years and then comes out at the top of the class is well deserving of the honor he or she receives. Not everyone can be a Valedictorian or a Salutatorian, and we must appreciate the work a student goes through to reach this mark. Dorothy and John are both outstanding students, and we wish them success in whatever they undertake after leaving high school. O SALUTATORIAN Dorothy, as Salutatorian, was a close second to John. We admire her for her excellence in her school work. Her earnestness and determination won for her this title. She is very outstanding in the other activities of the school. She won her letter in basketball all four years while in high schoolg she also received a letter in debate. Known for her cheerfulness and ability in the class room, Dorothy has won a large c'rcle of devoted friends. l DOROTHY PARSONS Page Fourteen O 5. ey if JR sh '1 Vi! . 17 if gg, gi i if 1- ' 4 ' it .
