§ rntnr ijistunf When we entered school four years ago, we were very timid and ambitious. However, as our class was a “live one” we soon through this stage passed. We passed through such epidemics as failure, love and marriage, and while so doing, lost a large percentage of our class. We were not very conspicuous as Freshmen, but with our Sophomore year, there came an awakening and we lead the school in social activities. In our second year we organized early, electing Esther Hart, president, Oakley Rotramel, vice president, and Da'e 15rown, secretary-treasurer. Our class was well represented in the High School play. A valentine masquerade party was given this year by the class which was very picturesque. In 1919 the Junior Class of F. C. H. S. was organized the first week of school, with Maude Musgrave, president. Lloyd Shipp, vice-president, and Helen Burpo, secretary-treasurer. With these oficers we felt that we were able to do the many tasks which present themselves to Juniors. We started the social ball rolling by giving a party in honor of the Seniors. After this came the Junior play, Junior Christmas party, Junior box supper and last but not least the Junior-Senior reception, which ended in a magnificent banquet. This year we are Seniors. Our class of officers are as follows: Gwendolyn Fox, president; William Howe'ls, vice-president; and Nina McClintock, secretary-treasurer. Our first social event was a truck ride given in order to get on intimate terms with our teachers. This was followed by a fareweU party for Miss Grosse. As we felt very proud of our B. B. team, we gave them a banquet in March. We are glad to be Seniors. We have had four happy years in which to contribute our bit to our Alma Mater; and we here advise the under classmen to make the most of their opportunities to do the same. We are the second c'ass to graduate from the newly organized community high school; and as such, we wish to thank the citizens of our community for placing such a wonderful opportunity within our grasp.
