unior Chronicle Now it came to pass that in the year of our Lord 1920 there came to Georges Township High School a certain number of young men and young women from the different tribes that inhabited the various syna- gogues in the district of Georges. Now these are the names of the members of the tribes that did report on that day: Garolus, otherwise known as Sibert, son ot' Jepthe, a sheep-herder. Daniel .otherwise known as Swaney. son of Ferdi- nand, a farmer. Theodore, known as Pinkos. son of Abigail, a water carrier. Benjamin. or VVilson, son of Shobal, a cartman. Barbara, or Kasonovic, daughter of liozo, a fifer. Dorothy, daughter of Hans. a goose-herder. Evelyn, or McDowell, daughter of llagar, a pedagogue. Leona, or Reese, daughter of Malachi, a warrior. Martha. or Dailey, daughter of Noah, a woodoutter. Hetha, or Smith, daughter of Abi- nadab, a pugilist. Mildred, or Blosser, daughter of Beriah. a horse jockey. Eleanor, or Thomas, daughter of Maria, a chimney-sweep. Edna, or Harvey, daughter of Moses, a junk dealer. Myra, or Thomas, daughter of Saul, a base-ball pitcher. Christine, or Thompson, daugh- ter of Eliza, a 'hod carrier. VVillie, or Redmond, son of Pete, a horse Doctor. Mabel, or Fields, daughter of Susan, a railroad engineer. Fred, or Hague, son of Emanuel, a clown. Now, when these members came unto this place they were in- deed, very green, so green were they that when they came over the hills in the morning they gave a greenish tint to the sun rays as it fell upon the land. Moreover this crowd of knowledge seekers were sorely afflieted with ignorance. Indeed, very grievous was the af- fliction. But after many strenuous weeks of labor these pilgrims did snow vague signs of improvement. And the members of the faculty after serious debate did determine that each and every member of the tribe of Freshmen should be promoted to the group of tlwise fools or sophomores. Now, on the 5th day of the 9th month of the year of 1922, one, Theodore Pinlos became grievously afflicted with anti-school virus and did maliciously and premediately withdraw from the tribe of Freshmen and betook himself unto the tribe of hod-carriers and truck 36 it

drivers in habiting the coke yards in York Run. There was much weeping and gnashing of teeth amongst the daughters of the tribe because of the absence of the fair Pinkos. Especially did Mable, daughter of Susan bewail the absence of her fair one. Then, there came amongst us Fred, son of Emanuel, a clown, who began making things lively for the tribe. His advent was a bless- ing to the tribe, for the fair maidens forgot Theodore in their adora- tion of Fred. So these boys and maidens wandered through the year of ttVVise foolsil without mishap until near the end of the term when great dis- satisfaction arose in the tents of the tribe concerning the annual feast, known as the annual picnic. After much fighting and unholy argu- ment these did agree to postpone said feast until another year. Then in the year of 1922, the tribe again assembled in the halls of G. T. ll. S. as jolly Juniors. Fred, son of Emanuel hetook himself from the old tribe and joined a new tribe, and is new attendingschool in Monessen-. Myra, daughter of Saul, joined our tribe and became one of our members. Huey, Son of Belshazzer, joined the tribe of Fog Foundry workers near VVymps Gap. VVillie, Son of Pete, decided to cast his fortune in the district of Georges instead of following the pro- fession of his ancestors he is going to join the tribe known as f'tusk pullers, otherwise known as Dentists. Now Christine, daughter of Eliza, left her happy home in Kentucky in order to be a member of the class ot' 'QL . Now all these important members of the various tribes having been iinally drawn together for common interests, proclaimed Daniel, Son of Ferdinand, a farmer, the grand worshipful presiding officer in this the third year of the tribe's existence. This being easily accom- plished, the tribe then proceeded to proclaim ltetlia. daughter of Abin- dab. a pugilist. chief Scribe. Dorothy, daughter of Hans, a goose- herder, as keeper of the tribe treasures. These things having been accomplished with great labor and ex- ertion, Garolus, son of Jepthe, a sheep-herder, most seriously weakened of all, called for food and the other members ol' the tribe hearing this call with one voice gave the same assent. NVhereupon the grand wor- shipful presiding otiicer announced the feast to take place on the first moonlight night after the first full moon in the month of May to which each and every member shall come with overflowing baskets.
