Y we X CLASS 'HISTORY just four years ago, in sweet September, Is a time we will all remember. We entered High School, as shy little Frosh, - But we soon learned our fears were all bosh. Of course, the weird tales that the Sophomores told Made our hair stand up and our feet grow cold. But nevertheless, we showed our pep, And from the first established our rep. y As Sophomores, just twenty-one returned, And at last came the day for which we had yearned. What we did to the Freshies could easily be seen, I'll say, we surely made them feel green. As juniors, we worked with a right good will, Never making a mountain out of a hill. We ended the term of 'Twenty-one By showing the Seniors a lot of fun. At last we are Seniors and rulers of all- Among our bunch are short and tall. Our class is well represented in school athletics, And also in music as well as dramatics. Though it seems we've come to the end of our rope, We never intend to give up hope. There are always higher things in view, But with heavy hearts, A. U. I-I. S., were leaving you. Irene Gould '22 , . CLASS PROPHECY Perhaps no one has imagined that in the thrifty days to come, Rose Trautz will be a dress designer in Paris making things hum. Close beside her, sitting erect on a little stool, You'll find her chief stenographer, Irene Gould. Merrill Williams will leave all he once thought his heart desired, To fill the vacancy when our noble Charlie Chaplin has retired, There is one who, after having three times become a widow, A great historian, will resume her maiden name-Mildred Kitto. In this valley's favorite farmhouse, Jessie Gittings you'll see Watching for her stalwart husband-Noble McGee. At first, Mary Reilly will be an actress on the stage, Then become a foreign missionary at thirty-one years of age. N . lPage N inel
