WS eS One Nee N And behold, as th: Class went on its way in great rejoicing through the land of plenty and of promise, they did decide to give unto their leaders the Seniors, a great feast, and did send messages to all members of the class in the different parts of the land, east, west, north and south, saying, “Come ye and make merry with us, for we know you are about to depart into a far country, and all things are now ready for a great teast.” And it came to pass when the guests had feasted and were departing from the festivities, they were exceeding glad that things were as they- had been proclaimed, and did give much thanks to the Class of Two-and-Five for the pleasure they had provided for their enjoying. And thus the Class of Twenty-and-Five passed through the third year in the land of learning and lo, the whole umber at the end of this third year was twenty- five. CHAP IER LV: Now this, the fourth year in the history of this great and wonderful Class of Twenty-and-Five has been one of much hard labor, and but little resting by the way- side; for preparations have been making ready for them to take their final departure from the land. Now it came to pass, as their pride grew to a great bigness within them, that the Class began to wish for rings befitting their station; and many messages were sent to the big cities and all the towns round about for samples of their fine jewelry ; and at last, after much considering and reconsidering, the Class professed itself to be satisfied with its choice, and rings were purchased with which they rested weli content. And it came to pass that some members of the Class were again stricken with that fever known as basketball and did once again try to be the victors. It su happened that five of the six on the team were members of the Class of Twenty-and- you, that broad is the gate, and wide is the way that leadeth to the High School, and many there be that go in thereat ; but straight is the gate, and narrow is the way that leadeth to graduation, and few there be that find it. Four years hath the Class of Twenty-and-Five sojourned in the land, and gath- ered in large portions the fruits from the Tree of Knowledge. But it is written, “In - the day when ye shall have eaten of all these fruits, ye shall surely be driven forth from the land!” Now, I say unto you, they must depart thence, to go each a separate way, to lands they know not of, to do, they know not what. But “let us not be weary in well doing, for in due season we shall reap if we faint not.” And now may the blessings that ever attend the noble and good and true, follow and abide with us, each and all, now and forevermore. Amen.
