J unior History Three years ago, in September 1918 the present Junior Class first entered the halls of the Pleasant High School. Most of us had graduated from the Pleasant Grammar School and did not experience any. strange feeling, for we felt that we knew every one in the school and that everyone knew us, whether they favored us with their recognition or not. During the lirst year we did very credible work in pursuance of the courses in- corporated in the school curriculum in social activities and in athletics, one of our members, Bob Straw, being picked for ,a forward position on the basketball team in his Freshman year and has remained unquestionably the star of the quintet during the past three seasons. At the beginning of the term in September 1919 we were all glad to return to Pleasant to further continue our course. We as Sophomores were shown considerably more recognition than was paid us in our Freshman year and endeavored to warrant the faith placed in us by the faculty and by the other studentsf We at this time decided to include in our studies ,a course in Agriculture for our personal benefit and in conformation with the purpose for which Pleasant High School was erected and can say that we have continued to pursue this course with much pleasure aind profit. In the beginning of the school year in 1920 none of us had as yet withdrawn, all of us being here for entrance to progress in efficiency of our school work and of athletics. At this writing each member of the Junior Class holds a regular position on one of the basketball teams. The Junior Class has never indulged in useless raillery at the classes labor, als in fact we appreciate the efforts of the lower classmen and believe that they will do credit to that institution in which they seek an education. Nor have we passed hours of torturous envy of those above us for we believe that graduation from high high is at this time within the power of any one whosoever wills. And while we do not Claim to be infant prodigies nor come forth with the usual assertion that we are the best class that ever was or will be in Pleasant High School we de believe that we shall be remembered for our integrity, spirit of fairness, and for individual ac- complishments.-vV.
