Ernest v as alw ays one of the leaders in scholarship, athletics, literary and cade. work, and he has l een missed from every line of work. Even the Seniors join hands with us in the hope that his recovery will l»e permanent and that he will ! e able to resume ids school work in the fall. The class of ’oh had a regular monopoly on the declamatory contest this spring which was t,o determine the representative of the A. II. S. at Heat-rice on the 3rd of April. The contestants were: Helen Stowell. Opal Ball and Edna Barnes. Edna Barnes succeeded in taking first place wi h Eli .a-lH‘th Stuart Phelps' “Mary Elizabeth.-' The mem-Im»rs of the class escorted her to the train in high glory, and, although the Fates were not with Edna when the judges made their decision, the students have great faith in the judgment of their teachers, who say t hat she would certainly have taken first place had they been judges. When she returned she was given an informal reception at the home of Rosa HutTman, where the girls laughed and the hoys ate ice cream to their hearts content. m The annual Junior-Senior reception, which is to Ik held at the Keedy Convention hall on May U will Ik too late for account here. w The April Fool social, given by the Junior class, at the court house, on April 1st, was a rousing success. There were about one hundred and fifty present, and about $10 was added to the class treasury outside of expenses which amounted to s. It is the old story. When the Juniors undertake to do anything it has to go. They are only waiting for their Senior year to make things hum in earnest. c The Juniors have not stood as high as they might in athletics on account of the small number of Inns in the class and the ahsence of some of the members on account of sickness. Roy Kuhlman. howerer, has made a name for himself by making eight points in the interclass meet, and will lie one of the leading at hletes next year. c The Juniors have l een wrestling with Milton's “Paradise Lost. in English. We find this text very difficult, and have to go very slowly, but it is so different from anything we have studied that we find it very interesting. W have also completed Tennyson's, “The Princess. and Sliakespear's “Merchant of Venice. ' c It is the general opinion of the scholars that Physics is t he most interest ing study of the course, and certainly of the Junior year. Our class had an especially fine time the evening Prof. Simpson conducted us to the X ray and power. Dr. Lutgen was kind enough to give us an evening in his office, where he showed us each in turn the bones of our hands, wrists and elbows. as well as several other electrical phenomena in connection with his machine. We then went to the power house where the dynamos and engines were explained by the teachers as well as the employees. Everyone had a fine time as well as learning lessons they will never forget. ..

C7 The social functions of the senior class were rather scarce the first part of the year, hut we have l een making up for lost time the last two months and a general time, which the class of ‘07 only knows how to have, was reported by every member of t he class who was present at each event. m The “Pie Feast” given by the senior girls, in the club rooms of the court house on the evening of March 0, being something quite unique, seemed to take well with everyone and both old and young came out to enjoy the contest of those good old home-made pies A. .L L.

Their attitude during their short stay could no have l een better and we hope they will come again. They were invited out to supper by different members of our class and a hurried reception was given them in the evening, in the club rooms of the court house, which were beautifully decorated for the occasion. They departed at a late hour, each declaring they had had a fine time. On Wednesday, April 17, tlie seniors took a half holiday, which had been earned by perfect days.

Every one entered into the work with pleasure and good will and in the course of the semester were glad to welcome Edith Lambert, Mary Barnes. Hazel White, Cozier Oilman and Earl Elliott from other schools. c Several of our class took Parliamentary Law during the first semester. We organized under the name of “High School Regulators” and had many exciting discussions and a great deal of fun over our mistakes. When this class was brought to a close by a change of studies for the second semester, we felt that we were capable of presiding over almost any meeting. c Fate was against the class of l!XM in April, for several, including Edna Hanks, George (vuilliatt. ( uy Rhodes, Mabel Bath. Edith Lambert and Minnie Bath, were detained at home on account of the measles. «r The Botany students welcomed the early spring for we are required to get forty specimens for our herbariums. A few excursions have been made to the woods by the class accompanied by the Botany instructor, Miss McCartney. i The Juniors are wise! The Presides are green!

It is noted for its foolishness, smartness, determination and perseverance, but it makes its best record in school work for they have endeavored to make this year one worthy of mention. mr We enjoy the distinction of l eing the first and only class to gain a quarter holiday for twenty perfect days in succession, spending this in making preparations for the party for the boys. We also spent one-half day in order to attend the trial, in which we were disappointed as the court room was already crowded. The class then separated, many wending their way to the skating pond where one of the girls was reminded of the coldness of the water by falling through the opening in the ice. We still have at our disposal a quarter holiday which we are expecting to use for a picnic near the river m.
