That fall and 'tlhe following spring a goodly numb-er of us took part in and profited by the various forms of athletics conducted by our school. During the year :the class of twenty-four conducted a successful Lecture Course, there being five numbens in all. A conltest for selling the 'tickets was held between the girls and boys. Although girls are supposed to be among the front ra'n'ks when th-ere is talkin'g to be done, the boys proved themselves the best salesmen and won a good square meal as a result. Yes, there were parties-numerous parties-of the variety that always carry a good' time with lthem. Following 'the custom establish-ed by previous graduates, we -secretly hired away on a Ente morning in May to Wamplers Lak-e. Our absence was undoubtedly welcomed by the juniors la'nd underclassmen als it gave them plenty of room for lung expansion, our dignity ordinarily 'serving as a check on th-eir loquacious tongues, especially the Freshmen. Oh, morning of all morniings! Alas! tlhe horrors of which are known only to 'the experienced on-es of yore. You've guess-ed it- Senior morning. Hlow we all enjoyed CPD taking part! After the hurly-burly of the Forum programs was past, the Seniors showed their talent on the stage by presenting 'the three act play, Kicked Out of College. And now there remains but one more day, the day we have been looking forward 'to 'for four long years, and still-we regret 'to think that it ends our Golden High School Days.

Fall athletics began right away with our class well represented in the football anrd basketball teams. On the morning of November the tenth we were gr-eete-d in the main hall by a great stack of books. Om furthler investigation it was found' that these books oame from nearby rooms and We spent part of the forenoon digging around in the pile trying tio find our own. N Winter was ssooln upon us, bringing the Forum programs in which we all took part with great acting ability. K When Spring camle, w.e began at once to practice blaseball, basket- ball, tennis and track. It passed very quickly for most of us and, almost before we knew it, semester examinations were at hand. The tests were passed 'successfully by 'the majority of us. Thus we parted, each hopi-ng that w-e would all be together the n-ext fall. W Junior Year By FANNIE DAVISON , Summer vacation ended and school resuming, we met each other as Juniors. The faculty was composed' of Mr. Marshall, Mrs. Smith, Mr. Hilton, and the Misses Saun-ders and Raymond. Athletics of various natur-e were enjoyed by the members of the class. Football and basketball were played during 'the fall. Before we hardly realized the fact, winter was upon us, and' we began to pre- pare for the Forum programs. Spring' soon approached, bringing with it baseball, basketball, tennis and track. On March twenty-sixth, our class treasurer, Walt-er Dental, died which brought great sorrow to the cllass, as 'he was a cheerful and willing helper. The ninth annual J Hop was held on May tenth at Coon's dancing pavilion, Manitou Beach. It proved a success, both socially and finan- cially. Several plartiles were held, at two of which we were entertained by the classes of twenty-three and twenty-six. An 'enormous amount of electricity and oil was used' by the stu- dents in mastering chemisltry, literature, and history, these seemingly being the subjects of the year. Much time and labor were spent in decorating the church for Com- mencement, it being customary for the Juniors to perform this work. We also acted as an escort for the Seniors. Senior Year By , MARIAN HOFFMAN When the fall term of th-e year nineteen. hundr-ed twenty-three rolled around, it found a group of dignified Seniors assembled at the high school building. To be exact there were twenty-two in the class. Of cours-e things seemed to take on a very different aspect as all ob- jects vere viewed through Senior eyes. 1921 Omen?-olze

Though wie worked hard, yet we must say A part of our time we spent at play. Our little class consists of twenty-two, All taken together make up our crew. Some got discouraged and another we will meet In after life in Yeternity. Many times along our happy way Some few of us would say, I know I won't be back next year. Then anoth-er would give us cheer. We are truly proudaof each othler, ' Though we've had quarrels with one another: Some day we'll be here and t'h-ere, With cares, hardships, and fad-ed hair. Now to 'th-e members of this class, just a word for each one as wie pass: A little comment will be fouxnd Of teach of us as you read on down. The Hrst individual to mention here Is Bob Harper, our president this year: Good, capable and he isn't a fake, He's a business man and no mistake. Hubert Van Camp is a brilliant lad, To look at him you'd think him sad: Then he will smile and show his wit By springing a joke that makes a hit. Stanley Shoemaker is one of 'the class, Who appears to be quiet, but alas! He is clever, jolly, and full of fung Still, he's as studious as anyone. Qlje were 7- fl ree
