In looking over the class histories of all ages you have no doubt observed that each class is a little better than the previous one, thus forming a climax so to speak.

As no climax is complete without a "cap" it has been rumored that our class may some day become the "cap" for this peculiar climax.

Although our names are not to be found in either Webster's International or the Encyclopedia Brittanica, we have not giv-up hope, "for while there is life there is hope."

We have always been peculiarly original and originally peculiar as a class, from one member who "bisects" human dodies [sic bodies] to another who constructs "opposite internal " angles.

It was indeed a day famous in history(?) when we entered the high school. We have no distinct recollection of any such occurrence, although it is highly probable that some of our members wandered about like lambs in a certain parable.

After one of our Botanical excursions "Woodward" the question was raised, " should young people be permitted to go botanizing in couples,without compasses?" This roast does not hit a "Younglove."

Our class can always be warm and well fed, since we have a "Coate" to take with us and a "Porter" to "Cary" our "Blocks" and also a "Miller" who can furnish us with flour, and a "Durkee" who makes salad dressing.

The "Lock" of our "Strong" box is indeed gone, but no one "Weary Willie" and we also have a "Martin" to entertain us
with its song.

The Seniors say we have to entertain them, but we didn't know we "Od'em."

Our class is not without nobility for we have a "Laird," a house of "Sanford," and a castle "Osborne" surrounded by "Motz," on the bank of which many "Burrs(is)" are growing.

But we will cease punning, for you know what J.G. HOLLAND says about puns.
