The Senior Class THE LAST GRADUATING CLASS of Weber High School-that is the proud title held by Class Twenty-three. To have graduated from Weber is in itself an honor; to have attended Weber High during its last year is also quite a distinction; but to have been a graduate of that year is a thing of which to be truly proud. The class of nineteen twenty-three culminates the long list of graduating classes which started with eighteen ninety-six. The number of graduates has steadily increased year by year from four in eighteen ninety-six to about one hundred twenty-five in nineteen twenty-three. This, the last of our four years here, has been one of remarkable success. As the last class of student- friends to depart from the old Weber Academy, we have endeavored to earn, honestly and completely, the name of being the best one as well. Our first three years' experience has all been combined to make the fourth one glorious. In our contests with the other classes we have done well. We succeeded in winning the inter-class debates, and filled all the positions on the school debating team with seniors. In the Barker extemporaneous speaking contests we also took first place. We tied with the sophomores for the inter-class basketball title. Lastly, we won the main inter-class event, the ticket sale contest for "Merely Mary Ann." The class play, abandoned since nineteen twenty, we revived. "Her Husband's Wife" was the name of the play presented, under the direction of Mrs. McKey. It has been the custom of graduating classes in Weber to leave some gift as a memorial to the institution. A bronze tablet, dedicated to Louis F. Moench, one of the founders and the first president of Weber, is the parting token of love to our Alma Mater from the last graduating class. This tablet, two feet high and three feet wide, is to be hung in the Weber Gymnasium, when the latter is completed. It contains the names of the hundred twenty-five graduates below the name of President Moench and the dedication. The total cost was about two hundred fifty dollars. And now, four years of happiness and friendship are ended. Although many of us will come back to Weber College, there will be some who will leave us for a while, and some who will go away for good. Like other true ties of affection, however, the spirit of the class, which is the spirit of the school, will never be lost, though the members be scattered over the earth. It is an undying fire, and perhaps it may at some time be the Inspiration for some man or woman to do something great. We close our life in Weber with the hope and prayer that she may still go on, and succeed in instilling in the hearst of future Weberites the same ideals and ambitions that we have obtained.
