We Must Give The Class Of Nineteen Hundred And Four The Entire Credit For Establishing The Publication Of This Annual. The Class Of Nineteen Hundred And Five Deserve A Share, Also, For Her Annual Is A Splendid Remembrance Of The "Orange And Black."
We, Of The Class Of Nineteen Hundred And Six, Have Written This Medley For You. We Give It To You With The Hope That You Will Forgive All Its Shortcomingd(For We Know They Are Many) And Its Imperfections.
Rather, Will You Remember That It Is Written With The Idea To Inspire In You A Love, A Respect, Or At Least, An Interest In The Danville High School, That You May Promote Its Peace, Strengthen Its Congeniality, And Perfect Its Educational Abilities.
To Those Who Have, In Any Way, Assisted Us In The Publication Of This Book, We Are Sincerely Grateful. We Have Been Happy In The DHS And With Our Happiness We Intend To Push Eagerly Forward Toward The Best. We Leave Behind Us Those Whom We Hope Will Every Year Try To Publish A Medley Which Will At Last Reach Perfection And Be An Honor To Our Alma Mater.....The Staff.

History Of The Class Of Nineteen Hundred And Six
We Originated As Members Of The Danville High School In 1902, And For Four More Years We Have Kept Our Reputation For Originality. Our Freshman Year Passed As All Other Freshman Years Pass--Our Minds Were In A Process Of Absorption.
We Took In Everything That Came Our Way And Did The Little Things Well, Waiting For The Greater Things To Come To Us Asking To Be Done.
When In 1903 Our Second Year Began, We Did An Unprecedented Thing By Organizing Our Sophmore Class. With All Due Solemnity We Elected Our Officers With Helen Wick As President And Chose Crimson And Gold To Be Our Standard Through The Years Of Strife Which Lay Before Us. At First The Seniors And Juniors Were Inclined To Regard Us As A Joke, But Our Action Was Not Fruitless, For All Sophmores Since Have Followed Our Example. We Did Not Attempt Much. We Were Content With A Few Laurels In The Literary And Oratorical Scope And Confined Ourselves To Conventionalities In A Social Way.
Our Garb Of Timidity Fell Away From Us When We Assume The Name Of Juniors. We Were Ready To Put Forth Our Best Efforts For DHS And 1906. We Re-Elected Helen Wick To Guide Us On Our Uncertain Way To Seniordom And Glory. The Juniors Were Represented In Almost Every Form Of High School Life--In Football, Basketball, Baseball,(Where We Shone Particularly), In Tennis And Track Work, As Well As In Literary And Oratorical Contest. We Found Recreation In Picnics, Receptions, Parties And Hayrack And Bobsled Rides. In The Spring The '06 Medley Staff Was Chosen, And In June We Vented Our Artistic Temperament In Decorations For The '05 Baccalaureate And Commencement.

When We Again Turned Our Faces Toward High School---Sadder, Wiser Seniors, "Si" Supple Was Exalted To The Place Of Honor Among Us. We Now Gave Our Thoughts To More Serious Affairs. To Raise Funds For The Medley, The Staff Presented "Mrs Wiggs Of The Cabbage Patch," Which Became So Popular That It Was Several Times Repeated. In Athletics, Literature And Society, Events Took Their Usual Course, And As The Time For Graduating Grew Near We Began To Regret That The Happy Reality Of High School Life Must Soon Be Only A Memory.
We Have Laid No Claims To Superiority Or Pre-eminence, And Yet We Believe That By Some Chance The Elements Have Been So Mingled In Our Class That We Have Attained More Than An Ordinary Degree Of Success. O)ur Purpose Have Been Earnest And Our Methods, Honorable. We Have Finished Our Lesson Here, And Before Each One Of Us The World Lies, Enticing In Its Breadth And Freedom. Soon We Shall Be Engrossed In Learning Other Lessons--Bitter And Sweet--But In The Midst Of It All What One Of Us Will Not Gladly Hail The Memory Of "Dear Friends Of Early Times" And The Crimson And Black Of 1906?
