The Senior
Class Papers
Salutatory, Prophecy and Valedictory of
of the r. III. S. Class of '16.

1918, eight of the class, Emily Heit-
man, Ruth Whitfield. Bertha Fehl
haber, Irma Feely, Frank Webster
Chester Mulledy, Perry Pierce and
Charles Richmond, were ready to face
the struggle as before, the rest haying
concluded that life was too preciuu
to be wasted in this manner, except
Ing Ernestine, who took up her WORK
in another school. These eight ad-
vanced step by step, with the loss OF
only one member, Perry Pierce, who
became tired OF this monotony, and
took up new phase of life when
spring came; until another summer
vacation approached, to be heartily
greeted.
In September 1914, this class, which
now numbered seven with the return
of Ernestine, were once more willing
to try the struggle. However, it did
not seem to be so much of a struggle
this year, because they we're allowed
to take more active part in the
social and athletic activities of the
school. Therefore, this year passed
more happily than the two preceding
years. And while they heartily re-
joiced to think that one of their class,
Ruth Whitfield, was able to complete
her course in the three years, yel
there was sad feeling in the hearts
OF those who were left, to have this
beloved member no longer among
them,
So time passed and members of the
class dropped OUT until only four
remained to complete the course in
1916. These four led very smooth
and serene life through the fourth
year, and heartily received the honors
bestowed upon Seniors. While
they dread TO leave the school, to
which they have so long been devoted,
yet they are anxious to pass on to a
higher life.
But what Will become of this class
of 1916? Perhaps, that is a more i'm
portant question than what they
have done In the past, for twenty
years from now will 6nd this class
scattered. far and wide. First let us
see what will be the fate of Emily
Hetman. She, having great regard
for children and much practice in
caring for them, will perhaps take up
the management of an orphans
asylum, in so doing will gladden. the
hearts of many sad children. But
laws regarding this may need TO be
changed, and as she seems to be quite
strongly in favor of Woman's Suffrage
she will no doubt do great work along
that line, changing the ideas of many,
who are very strongly against it. So,
she will advance until she holds the
important position of Secretary of
State of the United States.
Ernestine Drennan's greatest am
bitlon upon leaving High school is t +,
ge married ard settle down, but as
the one who she estet ms, is not ready
to settle down to that kind of life,
she assisted by her beautiful counte-
nance and melodious voice will soon
become the main actress in one of the
largest theaters in New York city.
She will charm every one who beholds
her fascinating appearance; and, after
many years of this life, If she still has
the desire TO settle down, she will not
fail to express it either IN words or
action.
To keep track of Frank Webster
will be very hard task. He will
first 20 on the stage, but this will not
be adventurous enough for him, and
the next thing that will be beard O:
him. he will be flying thru the air in
an aeroplane trying to solve some of
the problems which will he brought
ON by the coming Of that mode Of
conveyance. Perhaps some day he
will be heard of as greater inventor
or discoverer, for who knows what
lies hidden in the worlds broad lleld
OF possible achievement. No doubt
his name will 90 do va in history as
one of the worlds greatest men.
