You are often accused of being egotistical, of emphasiz-in- g your virtues and overlooking your faults. But as we are called upon to do so we shall begin by telling you what we are not. We are not the largest class in the school, we are not the best class in school according to four other classes; and we are not the worst class in school according to our own decided opinion. What are we then? Just the jolliest, liveliest set of students that ever came together to make the most of an opportunity. After three close association of we are years more than ever delighted upon meeting each other at the beginning of this school year. Have you ever stopped to think what this association means to you?

What memories there are back of it no one knows but those who attended it. And on Founders Day we wore our green caps and had a dinner and a matinee dance. These things have passed into history, but it is history we are writing about, so it will be proper to dwell upon it. Between times we have been just digging as we should. What great things we mean to do in the future we would rather talk about after they are done. It is safer. With years of memories and experience back of us and the bluebirds before us chirping-happinesin our ears, who can say fail! Not the Fourth Years. s Besss Excuse Honorable V. ll. Fanner Fsq.
