- HISTORY This is the recorded events of the past of a horde of black sheep, who entered the institution lcnown as school on a bright sunny day in Sep- tember, 1925. We started in the old Grammar School that burned on Christmas in our fourth year. This was a glorious event due to the fact that ex- aminations were to start in a few days. At first we thought we were going to get a vacation, but our superintendent decided to let us come in the afternoon to Deshler. This plan of going half of the day continued for a year and a half. We had the best of the bargain because the high school students had to come early in the morning, most of the time before daylight. The next year the Grammar School was built. Our class was the first to have graduation exercises in the sixth grade. That year a new lighting system was installed in our room, the electric eye. The next year the class started to Deshler. We were expecting a good time in the old habit of changing rooms, but we were disappointed. That year the seventh grade started having only one classroom. We were denied this until we entered the eighth grade. Our eighth year pass- ed uneventless. Then dear old ninth grade and graduation exercises again. This made the second diploma we had received. This was the year we had about eight different teachers in civics. Our tenth grade was very exciting, although we had to study hard. And now our junior year, how we had to ralce and scrape to get money to feed those seniors! It was hard worlc, but when we had the banquet and dance we found our time and energy had been well spent. This year the Public Address System was installed. At last the twelfth grade, our Senior Year! This year was the most enjoyable of all. We had to study hard but good times made this easier. Now that our graduation is so near I wonder if we aren't just a little sorry. The teachers have all been telling us how glad they will be when this noisy crowd graduates, but just wait until the junior class fill our shoes. Poor Teachers! THE 1937 TIGER'S ROAR 18
