G D1JC DOC DUC duc DOC DUC DUC IX 1C Senior Class History X T WAS in September 1915 that we, as Fresh- men, began our career in C. H. S. Of course we were very proud to be entering High School — still we couldn’t avoid feeling shy when the other classes, especially the Sophomores, cast such glances at us. They told us such terrible tales con- cerning the lessons, teachers and rules that we fear- ed the very entrance of the study hall. We soon overcame this fear however and managed to pull thru our first year. When we returned as Sophs, we learned that a number of our former class mates had not come back to be with us, but we made several valuable acquisitions, Saline Armstrong, Lee McMullen and Lester Chaffee. It is generally quoted that the second year is the hardest, tho we brilliant students did not find it so with the many parties and other means of recreation. It seemed a very hard matter for this class to keep the members acquired, for at the beginning of our Junior year we found we had lost the ones gained in our Sophomore year, but six other pupils joined our jolly class. We haughty Juniors of 18 could not under- stand why the Seniors tho’t it appropriate to enter- tain us at a “Tacky” party. But we paid them back by giving a circus and requesting them to come dressed as young as they acted. They all come dressed as twelve year olds. Oh! the dignity we felt when we returned to C. H. S. as Seniors. Owing to the Influenza epi- demic we lost a month of our valuable school year. On account of this we have had to do extra work and have not had much time for play, tho we did find time for several (?) parties and a feast. Now as we leave dear old C. H. S. we realize as never before how we have enjoyed these four years and hope to have imparted our genius and ability to the coming Seniors of future time. LULA MAY BECKETT, ’19.

E? ZAKZ DIK Z DiKZ DUC TkeS eni In this garden there now grows Flowers and trees in orderly rows, Seniors are they in best attire, Laden with courage, knowledge and power. First is seen a stately oak tree Handsome, tall, and strong as he, Chalenging all the winds that blow Never to outdo Paul Bolles. Growing near the great oak tree This bewitching dahlia you see, Careful of all rules and forms Lula May Beckett heeds no storms. We must stop and see this rose; It is known wherever one goes, Full in bloom is Ardys Poppler, Busy always, nothing stops her. Surely as this poplar grows We can depend on Edwin Rousseau, He is our President you see So proud are we of this tall tree. DTC diic DC)C djk: Garden Underneath a poplar bough Grows our daintiest, sweetest flower, With no faults that can defile it, Lois Freeman is our violet. When there’s frolic in the air Everad Mann is always there Posing for the fun of all, Our plum tree is not very tall. In our garden you must know Where this dainty daisy grows, Lucile Fussel has all beat In talent, and in being neat. • Blushing, blooming, coming, then gone, Dropping blossoms all day long, Smilling on all flowers he knows, George Selby, a peach tree grows. On a tall and slender stem This carnation straight and trim Bobs her curly head and feels No flower is happier than Ida Seals.
