' 131113312 3312: Qfsplh , an ll, H In Our -class got together in the month of January, and held a class party. with invited guests, at the home of Margaret Reece. This was the real be- ginning of our class activities. It seemed that the Freshmen were especially busy that year and found little timel for amusements, until the last week of school when the students and teachers joined together in another XVeinei- Roast. VVeiners seemed to be the favorite dish that yea1'. With this weiner roast we ended our Freshmen Year. When, the class started in as Sophomores in the fall of '22. we were not so large in number. During the year we lost several of our class mates, bc- cause of the changing of schools. As a class, we were proud to say that. those who departed from us intended to attend schools at different places. School rolled by with nothing taking place in the class with the exception of the class Tournament. In this tournament the Sophomores received third place. We took the honor and were determined to do better the next year. Time passed and we were soon ready to go for another vacation, Before the Faculty would entitle us to a vacation they gave us a picnic dinner in the woods the last day of school and then they set us free. In the fall of '23 with a change in teachers and course of tstudy, we entered the Armstrong High School as Juniors. The Junior year seemed a very busy year to begin with. Towards the end of the year the Seniors in- formed us that they thought it would be still busier as they wished a banquet from us. This we planned out with our own heads and hands with the help of the teachers. Before it was over we found out that the Junior year was a very busy one. We hope that in the fall of '24 we shall enter the Armstrong High School as Seniors. Let us give a last word to the Seniors: To the Seniors of twenty-four, We have spoken of this before, We bid you good-bye And part with a sigh At the Armstrong High School Door.

In the year 1921, twenty-five students from the vicinity of Armstrong, stared into High School. This was what we, as Freshmen, considered the greatest time of our life. We thought we were promising students, but we appeared Hgzreenu to our other classmates. Thcv did not only tell us that we were green but they showed us by our initiation. The first few days ot' school was like a circus, hut when Mr. Brown, then Principal, explained to us what our duties were, we changed our opinions of High School Life. VVQ cannot say that Mr. Brown only made us work, for he also helped us ini our class activities. During the first Week of school our classmates gave a Weiner Roast in our honor. At least we considered it in our honor as Davey and Dorothy really ate eighteen weiners a-piece. 1 u-Q 1 32 4 Q'-152'-1: -are ur' ur'-In
