There, is still enough difference to give us a personality of our own. In the year 1920, early in September, there set sail over the Sea of Knowledge, a magnificent fleet, proudly bearing aloft, floating banners of gray and crimson. This fleet, proudly bearing aloft these banners, was headed for a far distant land called Graduation, which could be reached only after a long voyage of four Fong years over this much travelled, but to them, unknown sea. Among this magnificent fleet of twenty-two voyag- ers were Olga Beck, Vera Jol'y, Louise Frye. Rosezella Miller, Jean Smith. Lena Ashcraft, Lowell Creighton, Bert Fisher, Frank Andrews, Thelma Miller, Mable mvans, Margaret Kitts, Sadie Kitts, Nellie McAdams. Arleene Wright, Reva Cook. Cleo Hamer, Ethel Weber, Carrie Rayburn. Verna Banks. and Donald Vannatta, each firmly resolved to succeed or go down with the ship. Mr. Brown, Mr. Bass, Miss Galster, Miss Patton, Miss Sigfridson and Miss Dove started us off on our voyage. Miss Folk came after Christmas and finished the unexpired term of Miss Dove, who left.us. Late in Sep- tember we organized as a class, electing Thelma Miller as President. The first social event of this class was the annual Christmas party for our superiors. We had a Christmas Tree 'n' everything. In June we left school in a most carefree spirit, anticipatingthe va- cation, and most of us fooking forward to becoming Sophomores in the fall. We found the Sophomore year very hard. But Mr. Brown, Mr. Bass Miss Folk, and Miss Sigfridson were still at the helm assisted by Miss Glenn and Miss Tumlinson. Miss Glenn succumbed to the call of the Fijii Islands and under the protection of her newly acquired husband left us in April for the Philippine Islands. Mr. Lawrence then came to our rescue. The biggest social event was a party given for the school. The result was that we learned how to drink punch out of a cup with he aid of our fingers as they do in Texas. We didn't seem to amount to very much for the upper classmen scarcely noticed us. Il n-wr u at up-Q 1924 u 1. :ilu-lil
