As you read the following lines, close your eyes for a moment and think how grand it must be to be a member of the Junior Class. We, the Juniors, have had a very good representation in all High School organizations this year. In football, eight Juniors; boys’ basketball. five; girls’ basketball, two; declamatory contest, four; Ethel Clary, winning in honors and representing that division of the contest, at Sidney; Homer Barnes, winning place on team in debates; Demosthen-ean Club, thirty;—and when Uncle Sam stopped in Alliance and called for volunteers, six of our boys, and our Sponsor, Mr. Truman, were among the first to enlist. The Junior Class Play, given by members of said honorable class, was a great success. April 12, the Juniors gave a theatre party, after which they were very enjoyably entertained at the home of Esther Nation. Light refreshments were served and games played, until late in the evening, when the party disbanded each one seeking his bed of rest, to gain the much needed sleep in order to do themselves credit in the next day’s classes. III. Far and wide our way doth lie, A weary way and long; Yet we laugh at Algebra and German, And chase studies with a song. W’e’ve a book that keeps us safe, It teaches us civics And bids our spirits never chafe, At grim discouragement. IV. She measured out the German with a very solemn air, The Algebra and Geometry also, and she took the greatest care To count the problems correctly, and to add a little bit Of Latin, which, you know beginners oft omit; Then she stirred it all together, and pondered over it an hour But she never quite forgave herself for that gum she chewed before. 21

Class Sponsor ......... ..Floyd Lotspeich ...Grace Spacht ..Frances Collins Corrine Mollring .....John Carey ...Marie Kibble ...Mr. Stockdale A Sophmore party was given in the Gym for the purpose of raising money for the class debts. This was put in the form of a birthday party, the boys bring twice their age in pennies and the girls donating the lunch and also their birthday collection. The evening was enjoyed by all who attended. “Ever read “Looking Backward?” “Yes, once in an exam and got expelled.” The last sophmore program consisted of: Piano Solo..........................Thelma Larson Songs ..................................Sophmores Violin Solo...........................Leon Alters And so it is. Here we are on the second step of the four-rung ladder. Here we are, the Sophmores, foolish Sophmores! But still Sophmores who beguiles the innocent freshman! Who smiles at his teacher with a knowing air? Who causes all the trouble? Who owns the school with a lordly manner? The Sophmore! Cast your eyes over the honor list. Linger a moment here and there, and you will discover that the biggest part of this list is composed of Sophmores. Turn your gaze to the list of noted athletes in the Book of Fame. There are many Sophmores; turn to the page of renowned orators and de-bators. What? Sophmores! Look at them all. Who stands straighter (who causes more trouble) than the Sophmore? And so it is indeed wherever you may go, wherever you may gaze, your eyes will behold him, the Sophmore. (Gee! but we’re glad we’re Sophmores). And so in anything and everything there are representatives of our class. Oh, Sophmores, hold your heads high! Cast down your eyes to none! Keep high and true your aim, and on, on, let awe be confined. The class is now composed of 42 members, and next year there will be at least 42 smiling faces of Juniors. Then as Seniors—who could beat the record. 23
