8 THE QUIVER boy, it becomes a place where hard work and play are mixed, a plan; where one tries to do as little work as possible and pass, a place where, if he is that kind of a boy, athletic opportunities are opened. But it is, perhaps, by the man who has been out of school for several years that the keenest emotion is felt. His Alma Mater! What would he not give to be back there with nothing to do all day long but prepare lessons and recite them! What a life! Weren’t those teachers the best people ever? They were always anxious to help a fellow. What a pity those chaps in high school didn’t realize it! The nightmares he used to have while walking to classes with a lesson only partly prepared! No, not at night. Studies seldom worried him at night. Oh yes. once in a while he brought a book home. Too bad he didn’t study harder! There was one teacher of whom he was rather afraid. He never forgot to take all his books to that class for fear of having to stay after school. It seemed cpieer at the time, but even now when he goes to the office, he always stops to think whether or not he has forgotten anything. He somehow feels that she may be there waiting to see. Oh, the Algebra problems he struggled with! Wish to goodness all he had to do now was to study over an Algebra problem. Took so much time when one wanted to play ball. Algebra and ball! Hadn’t thought of them for ages. They certainly did develop a fellow. Wonder what he’d do if he went back now? He’d like the opportunity to try again; he would get much more out of it. He’d like to give those “kids” some “pointers.” They’d probably laugh. He used to. How crazy it seemed for old folks to come back and tell what they did in school! He remembers one man who talked when he was there. He talked a long time about something or other. Oh, } es! What they should get out of school. He had thought it a good joke at the time. He knew what he was getting out of it. But. come to think about it. that was a pretty good speech. School! a complete existence in itself. No place like it. No, sir!
