B1 uffing Your Way Hurrah for school! We'll have our fun, Although our work's not rightly done. If we're not sure we know enough, Then we'll rely on a chance to bluff. In English class how we do smile- And think it is quite worth our while- To make a dash for the back row- Perchance we can bluff it through, you know. O, then we go to Geometry, And listen quite attentivelyg To show our skill we're not so slow, Besides, we often bluff, you know. In History III we all pretend That we know just which points to blend, If we can't tell of friend or foe, Why, then we try to bluff, you know. In Latin class we learn the story Of Great Aeneas, and his glory, 'Tis really hard to get just so- And harder yet to bluff, you know. The German class, ne'er relate, How many lines are left to fate: Although the way indeed seems rough, There always is some chance to bluff. The sewing and design come weekly, And we all answer the call meekly, For we do like this kind of stuH Wherein there's no need of bluff. But as exams approach, O my! From every corner you hear a sigh, We think we cannot learn enough, So eagerly we prepare our bluff. Alas! When we get our cards, 'tis true We feel mighty dog-gone blue- Regu1ar dummies, they all say, Who always tried to bluff their way. Moral-Don't be a bluffer. LORAH STANFIELD 15

Senior Eulogy It has been said there are three elements in High School life: society, athletics and education: that it is impossible to be pro- tlcient in more than two of these lines, and that the ilrst two are decidedly opposed to the third. Although this statement does not apply, to a great extent, to our own High School, because it is not so large, is situated in a smaller community, and composed of students from bo-th city and country-more the latter than the former-yet it holds good to a certain degree. The 'tsociety' part of our career has been its pleasant fea- ture. It has not been society in the true sense of the word, of which NV. H. S. has experienced little, it being limited to our jolly class parties, receptions, and a few other activities. It is the friendliness. good-fellowship and hearty co-operation of our rlassmates,and the fond l't'f'l'lllllSCGHSl?S of these associations we will cherish most after we have left its halls. liuriiig our four years in XV. H. S. xve have seen the gradual waning of her athletic prestige, due partly to lack of material and partly to t.he lack of interest on the part of the school and community. However, we have seen the introduction of bas- ketball, and enthusiasm displayed in good games and teams. But for the most part our class has been inconspicuous in these pursuits. It is in the last line, that of education, that the class has spent its energy and demonstrated its ability. For a class of our size we have been industrious and reliable in the way of getting our tasks and getting them well ever since We were Freshmen. In Langauge. Algebra, Geometry, Physics and English we have particularly shown our knowledge in diflicult problems and assignments. We may declare, and not boastfully, and our teach- ers Will agree, that it would be hard to find a more alert, en- tliusiaistic, eilicient, all-around-class with brighter prospects than the CLASS 'IL J.
