T H E R E C O R D Page Thirteen CLASS HISTORY 0F '25 ln September, IQ2I, forty-live young boys and girls entered Pikeville College as Freshmen. They knew not, and they knew that they knew not, but were willing to learn all that the illustrious faculty should put before them. 'We were a distinctive class that year, as most Freshmen are, but one reason for the attraction to the class was Aunt Eppief' the best-natured fat person with whom we have ever come in contact. The class we liked to attend was llotany, where we fathomed the mystery of plants and the usquarsh. seed, under Mr. Magee. The first of our class to leave us was Sydia Coleman, who changed her name to Runyon. A goodly number of Freshies became tSophs and started the second year of our High-School course. XY'e had learned through the experience of our first year that it pays to study. A number of girls started to learn the art of sewing under the direc- tion of Miss Jean Nash. By the end of our Sophomore year we could sew very nicely. lt was in the Year the Model Cottage was opened, and the girls of our class had the honor of cleaning part of the cottage and washing all of the dishies. We also welcomed two new arrivals to our class this year, one, Miss Blanche Foglesong. who came to us from the frozen North, or the 'State of Wfashingtong the other, Mr. Denzil Lester, from Columbus, Ohio, who in all respects seemed a model boy. ln this year our class lost four more in the cause of matrimony-Miss Zella Martin, Miss Co-ra Mims, Miss Truda NVilliams, and M r. Alfred Sowards. Everyone felt that you get out of a thing just what you put in it, when we began our third year as juniors. We braved Geom- etry. Cicero and American Literature, and most of us came up smiling. Each one knew that he must accomplish something this year, and the faculty soon became accustomed to the sight of us studying. ln the course of the year we presented to the town tive numbers of entertainments, one of which was C'inderilla: or, The Glass Slipper, a sparkling operetta, given by the class. lt was a success, and the memory of it will stay with us all for the years to come. Another feature of the year was the ban- quet we gave to the Seniors. lt was given in the church, which was prettily decorated, and a faultless menu was served. ln our -lunior year and the summer that followed we lost through matrimony three of our classmates. Margaret 'Cornett became Mrs. ,lack Hatcher, and Zenobia VVood married her classmate, Elster Smith. ln the fourth year we welcomed to our class E-verett Sloan, from Stanton. Durie Hlanton, Bess. Trivette and lva Roberts are also newcomers to our class this year. As the fourth and last year of our leligh-School course opened by our say- ing among ourselves, 'Tl can't imagine l am a Senior, Doesn't it feel funny? I can't believe it's true, but it was true, and now that our Senior year is coming to a close, we realize that the happy days and years that are passed can not be recalled. tW'le really believe we are Seniors now, although we may not look as dignified as some of the classes. that have preceded us. The Seniors, in leaving, wish to the under- classes the happiness and fun that we have had in our High-School course, and may we all he loyal Alumni of Dear Old Pikeville College!
