WARM SPRUNG ECHOES HISTORY OF SENIOR CLASS Now the history of the Class of Thirty, of the High School of the Town of Bath, County of Morgan, State West Virginia, is in this wise: In the beginning, in the nineteen hundred and twenty-sixth year of our Lord, in the ninth month, and on the fifth day of the month, there entered into this Land of Learning, forty-eight seekers of knowledge. Some came up from the Eighth Grade, where they had for many months been busily engaged in storing their minds with the honey of wisdom; some were green and fresh from a far country; some came from farms, where they had been tillers of the soil; and some were from other halls of instruction. And it came to pass, as they did enter this land, with their banner of green and white, that they were received with wild welcomings and rejoicings by those, whom it was decreed should henceforth lead them up the slippery by-ways of knowledge. And as they dwelt long in the land, they fell in with the customs of the inhabitants thereof, and their strangeness wore away, and they each became as one among the rest. They soon found that they must have a leader, so a council was called and Henrietta Crowell was chosen as leader, with Philip Hunter and Helen Miller as helpers. Shortly afterwards, Henrietta was called away by the “Angel of Death,” and Philip Hunter then acted as leader for the remainder of the year. With memories of their first leader still clinging to their hearts, they traveled on. And it came to pass, after some months, that their eyes were turned toward graduation, but many, with one consent, began to make excuses. So, thus did this class decrease in numbers until the whole number at the end of the first year was twenty-six. Now it came to pass at the beginning of the second year, new leaders were chosen, and as the class did journey through the land, under the leadership of Henry Ruppenthall, and his helper, Iva Lee Yost, many hard battles were fought and won. Thus, the year passed by and we journeyed far into another land under the leadership of Willard Braithwaite. But a cry went up from the throat of the greedy class: “Lo! If it doth happen that we are to graduate after many days, it appeareth that there is much need of many dollars, wherewith to provide the song and dance thereof!” (Continued on Page 58) »930 Paye nineteen
