4B Class History IN the midwinter the present 4B’s were doomed to enter the E. H. S., which was to them very wonderful and which made them keep their eyes, as well as their mouths, open. Everything had been pictured to them as horrifying and yet pleasant as could be imagined. But nevertheless they kept up brave hearts and safely passed into the second year. Now came the “glad time” when they could organize and for the first year they elected: Donald Mahoney President Byron Faust Vice President Mary Lee Secretary-Treasurer Thoughts were now turned to social affairs and parties were given at the homes of Miss Edith Cockerham, Martha Charles and Mildred Morgan. In the Fall, the same class returned with a few members withdrawn, among whom was the secretary. Louise Clark was the new secretary appointed. Only one party was enjoyed by the class at the home if Irene Lewis. In the 3B term Carl Renner was elerted vice president and the other officers were reelected. This year Miss Ruth Wershing, Miss Louise Clark and Miss Edith Cockerham entertained the class at the home of Miss Wershing. As many members have withdrawn, the class has risen now to a small, but brilliant group. We hope that it will remain so- As 4B’s they have elected Louise Clark, president; Donald Mahoney, vice president and Mildred Morgan, secretary and thearurer. The closs colors are purple and gold. The motto, “Work to Win.’' Pago Twenty-fly

History of Spring Class N that never to be forgotten morning, that eventful, happy Monday morning in September of 1916, a cheerful crowd of Freshies hastened into E. II- S. All at first were frightened at the teacher but soon learned to write notes, eat candy, and whisper on the sly. The first year was uneventful in comparison with the other years but, of course, to the Freshies everything was new. At the end of this year a picnic was held and everybody enjoyed themselves. The second year proved to be more eventful but perhaps no more interestingn (how could it be more interesting?) than the first. Soon al'tr school began, a class meeting was held and ollicers elected, as follows: 1 Donald Massy President Marcella Koons Vice President Gladys Daniels Secretary-Treasurer ' Colors Old Rose and Black Several big, jolly parties were held this year. First a Hallowe’en party at the home of Marcella Koons,. then the Thanksgiving “stunt” at Beulah Pugh’s. Other most enjoyable affairs were held at the homes of Helen Ferguson and Velma Griffin. Thus the Sophomore year passed with all its fun and nonsense, its laughter and its tears, its sunshine and its rain. Many reached the Honor Roll, the first and second years, while others, as always, attained the dishonor roll. This year a member of our class was a worthy forward on the Basket Ball team. Everyone longed to be a Junior. Oh, just to be called an “upper classman!” The next year this crowd of happy “kids” again entered E. II. S., this time as Juniors. The officers elected to guide the class this year were as follows: Marcella Koons President Don Massy Vice President Philip Lock Secretary-Treasurer The class had lost some of its members because cf various conditions, but new ones had come in- Parties were held at the homes of Arthur Keever, Agnes Singer and Fern Kinsey. This class was well represented on the foot- ball tram and also on the basket ball team. It took an active part in all the other activities cf file school. 1 Then came the year of all years. The “kids” were now dignified (?) Seniors. For their officers m this, their last and all important year, the class elected the following: Lester Helms-------------------President Agnes Singer--------------Vice President Phillip Lock-------Secretary-Treasurer There were many things to be looked after. First and foremost preparations must be made for the Mid-Winter Reception. The committees were not appointed at once but everyone was thinking of the coming event. Then the class play had to be selected and produced. The play entitled “The District Attorney” was undoubtedly the best ever given in Elwood High. Everyone agrees that it was a grand success. The Reception was given on the night of January 9, and it, too, was a success, as this was a most successful class. All enjoyed a fine program and a most delicious four-course banquet. Class parties have been held at Agnes Singer's, Marcella Koon’s, and Marian Campbell’s, which pleased all who were present. The class is well represented in the Clio Club and all other organizations in the school. Three Seniors were on the Basket Ball team; others were in football and other athletics. All are looking forward to the Reception, Baccalaureate, and Commencement and are glad that the end is so near at hand, and yet are sorry to have to leave dear old E- H. S. where the happiest days of life have been spent. Preparedness. One morning when the temperature in the class room was 50 degrees. Teacher—“The girls may be excused to get their roats.” All the girls except Ruth Rapp leave the room. Teacher—“Ruth doesn’t need to go, since she always carries a (W)Rapp with her.” - Page Twenty-four
