As Freshmen, we soon discovered our place, For always we stood at the head of the race. In Latin and lVIath., were never such sharks, A nd ~>c i e nce and E nglish don't need our remarks. In history, too, we all learned so well, There scarce was a date we all couldn't tell.

As Sophomores, we learned that we could be jolly, And to study forever would only be folly. T hat bunch in room six will never forget How many good times they enjoyed in their set. O ur first party, too, was one grand success, A nd we won in track, J uniors had to confess.

As Juniors, we continue our fun and our mirth, But still ·we remember to show our real worth. This year we purchase our classy class pins, A nd again on the track our plucky bunch wins. vVe lose one good president, hut soon find another, A nd enjoy four parties, one good as the other.

APPENDIX

As it has been the custom fo r centuries to end a book with an appendix, we felt called upon to perform that duty. Since it is the style among the moneyed folk to eliminate the appendix, we hope that this w ill offend no one. Ordinarily t he . appendix is the place w here you can turn to verify the author's arguments. Since none of the facts in this book need to be verified, cur appendix must be short. H owever, since we have not omitted this division of our annual, its approval mat­ ters little.
