Svvninr Gllaan igiainrg En At last we are Seniors in dear old P. ll. S., which a few years ago, seemed but a childish dream. Although four long years have passed since we entered its portals, there is no one who does not remember that eventful day. It was a beautiful day and the sun seemed to be trying to give us courage, which we surely needed. We gathered together from the Grammar Schools and entered the awe- inspiring auditorium, in which we little suspected our happiest days would be spent. Before our schedules were fixed, with the aid of our Sister Class we had formed new friendships, renewed old ones and were truly a united Class, the Freshman Class of 1923. Miss Short soon found out how united we were, when she found out that exactly 30 girls had decided on the same schedule. Vile began our Freshman year by seeing how much trouble we could cause. The first thing we did was to have trouble with our sponsors. How- ever. that was settled satisfactorily and none of us will ever forget Miss Smith, now teaching in japan. The upper classnien soon began to think they had received a group of Bolshevists in their midst, for iwe had enough class meetings to make plans for the VVorld XVar.

When Christmas time came. we proved ourselves worthy of being part of P. H. S. by' having the finest programme and the prettiest tree fso we thoughtj ! Vacation came and went and we were sophisticated Sophomores. That year we had enough socials and parties to last us for our four years in High School. That year R. O. T. C. was started for the girls and we found our class had some crack shots chief among them being Alta Taylor and Sara Louise Hoeffer. In the beginning of the year the girls won the Hockey Championship and Captain Glenwright had reason to be proud for it was a hard fight to defeat our Sister Class, the Class of '2l. They- still remained our friends, however, and neither the boys or girls'-will forget those parties given by them at the Out Door Club. Then with spring came the botany ,16
