-.>. . THE AGGIES 19284929 VOLUME II Published by THE SENIOR CLASS OF THE FOURTH DISTRICT A. & M. SCHOOL CARROLLTON, GA. Foreword This is the foreword, and the Portal, To the rehn of our endeavor, Where we've planted our devotion For the school we'll cherish ever. Our book, inferior to its prompters. Every thought and gibe combines, But those things beyond expression One must seek between the lines. Dedication To fondest memories, which Fainter and sweeter each year, Will live to l)righten The days of our future, We dedicate this annual. "And when the stream Which overflowed the soul was passed away, A consciousness remained that it had left, Deposited upon the silent shore Of memorv, images and precious thoughts That shall not die, and cannot he destroyed." *<^* THE AGGIES, NINETEEN TWENTY-NINE ** FRANKLIN D.
