We then had an idea that we would take the school by storm. Our success as a class has been gradual and, as we slowly climbed, we have built a foundation so strong that it cannot be shaken down. Our class is not built upon the shifting sands of sudden success, but upon the firm rock of supremacy. Our first year in high school was spent in getting our bearings. In other words, surveying the land on which our tower was to be built. We then began laying our foundation which is proving solid. In the second year, we built the frame work of our tower. It was a frame to go with our foundation. A success in some new activi- ties added another steel girdle to our lower. In social life, athletics, Dramatics and other activities we ranked first after the best. Our third year is being spent in finishing up our tower. We are giving more to athletics than ever before. The Senior boys beat us in basket ball but we won from the Senior girls. We also spend much of our time in dramatic and social life. Next year we will complete this tower, and it will stand as a monument of our great work. When we go through the door for the last time, the school house will look down on us and with a smile say, Well done, my children, well done. W-Norman Dahl JUNIOR CARNIVAL It was held Thursday night, Nov. 9. 1922 and turned out to be one of the biggest in the school yet. The beautiful bathing girls in the swimming match drew a large per cent of the male gathering. It even drew more than the 'l'men only booth. - The fish pond had to be re-stocked with all kinds of fishes be- fore the evening was half over. The hunger of the joy seekers was satisfied at the Hot Dog stand. While the more dignified ones were satisfied with tea served by beautiful Japanese ladies in very dainty and well decorated rooms. Arrests were made quite frequently by two heavy set cops-- Swede and Cross. Those who wanted their fortunes told, 'were surely satisfied with the line that the keen gypsy gave them. f Vi by '3 Li J., rg' Q-.. l.-.f . .
