FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY Early in September the freshman class enrolled with five members. They were Raymond Wilson, Danny Sawyer, Morris Rod- velt, Frances Bindle, and Ruth Ann Jacobson. Raymond and Danny were graduated from Willis Grade School, Morris from Maple Grove, Ruth from Temple Rural Grade School, and Frances from Hickory Grove. We elected our class officers early in October. Our president was Ruth Ann, vice-president, Frances, secretary, Danny, and treasurer Raymond. On September 19, we were initiated by the seniors. During the day the boys had to wear shorts and green bows in their hair. The girls wore boys trousers backward. We were supposed to carry raw eggs in our pockets too, but instead we carried hard-boiled eggs. We wore our hair in pig-tails tied with green ribbons. Later that night, we went to the Horton Lake for a picnic. The freshmen were the first to have a class party and for this we went to the show HCluny Brown in Horton, and afterwards had re- freshments at the cafe. We gave an assembly play on Wednesday October 16, entitled, '6Greek Meets Greekn. This was followed by songs and jokes on indivi- dual members of the student body. The representative selected for the student council from our class was Frances. The freshman class was the only class that contributed lOO95 to the March of Dimes. We paid 159 monthly class dues. The freshmen took active part in music and sports in the school. The girls were re- quired to take English, citizenship, home economics, and typingg the boys, agriculture, health, English and citizenship. At the beginning of the second semester Mary Gamble from Kansas City joined our group of five. Ruth Ann Jacobson CARNIVAL The school carnival was given this year by the juniors and Seniors on the 18th of October. The evening was started with a show called s'Tommy Takes a Wifew. Following the play there were cake walks. Afterwards every one went downstairs for games. For refreshments there were snack bars--- one with coffee and sandwiches, the second the popcorn stand, and the third anice cream and pop booth. Paul Willich

' CITIZENSHIP AND WHAT IT MEANS TO ME Citizenship means that a person is a citizen of a country and as a citizen has certain rights or privileges and also certain respons- ibilities. Citizenship means building our life together. In this adventure of building citizenship, youth plays an all important part. Our personality as citizens counts in a very import- ant vvay, our interest and support will be invited, even sought for, by those who would control the building of our life. together. Every strong movement in the World today is a youth movementt Good citizens will be urged to enlist in this cause or that because through our hands comes the control of our American life of tomorrow. People are needed now who can think clearly and are willing to Work actively in the task of building our life together. We have many rights and privileges in our country. Our peop- le are tried by juries and have the right of free press and free speech. We have the right to express ourselves freely and obtain fair treatment in the courts. We have the protection of life and property. We also have responsibilities. The responsible citizen is loyal in defending and providing for his country. The best citizen is the one who feels that his right to vote, to hold office, and to serve on juries were given to him as important tools in the task of building a better world. , Morris Rodvelt SEWING The first semester there were three girls enrolled in the clothing classg Florence, Ruth Ann, and Frances. Each girl made an apron and a cotton dress. At Christmas time two of the girls made Christmas presents besides their regular work. At the beginning of the second semester Mary Gamble entered our class. The second semester's project included Work with wool, rayon or silk. Florence Pautz
