You can hear it everywhere, 1917! From the east to west, 1917 is the best You can hear the ech-o; hark 1917! CHORUS. Then wre’ll sing to the praise of our class, Yes we’ll sing; And we’ll up with a cheer for cur school, Make it ring. And never for a minute will we forget, We’re in it, So hurrah! for this grand McClellandtown High, Oh, it’s hard to put us down, 1917! And we’re known all over town, 1917! For our colors clear and bright, Rich purple and purest white, We defend with all our might, 1917! On the field or at our books, 1917! It is plain to him who looks, 1917! That we’re studious and fleet, That we never broke defeat, That we’re pretty hard to beat, 1917! When we graduate at last, from M. H. S., And the work and play are past, at M. H. S., We’ll come back and shout again, Till hills repeat the strain, From the school without a stain, M. H. S. —Irene Haines. 1 : '” 3«3 'S 3 3,,3» '3mS i3m3 3 '3 3m3h3k3k3h3h3 3k3m3, 3’ t3K3M3H3M3H3 ,3 3K3 3 3,43H3 3 3,t3K3 3, 3, 3 3H3’ 4)'3 3x3h3m3 3m3m3k3k3k3 3k3k3 3 3 3k3k3h3 3h3m3w3m3i 3kBhSm3kS m3mSkS 3 3h3 3 3 3k3 3h3i S 3 3 24

Within a few days after our arrival at M. H. S., September 2, 1912, we, the Freshman Class, knew that we would have a history well worth its reading by all who can read. It was a dreary day for such a noble Class to start upon its journey of success, but at our arrival M .H. S. had never before witnessed a brighter one. We numbered forty bright and willing youths, although a few of us have left our school for higher hopes. We were well liked by the other Classes, of which the Sophomores tendered us a Moonlight Reception. A delightful evening was spent during which we were highly honored by the presence of the Professors. We chose for our colors Purple and White, our Motto: “Via facienda est,” meaning: “Our wav must be made,” which we have successfully followed. Since we came to M. H. S. the Literary Societies have made a change for the better, which can be seen in all periodical:; and great magazines of the time. Although we played pranks on the Professors and were greeted with “De merits,” we were still in the lead of honor. Our dear Professor Sheetz finally got married and we greeted him with a kitchen shower. Now, as one of our four years ol' toil is coming to an end, and our history is, as yet, a short but noble one, we hope that our next three years of study will pass as this one has, bright and pleasant. - Eddie Jankey. 23
