The first freshmen meeting was held October 13, 1909, in order that the officers for the coming year might be elected. There was a splendid assembly of Freshman present, and a rousing good meet¬ ing was held. The following officers were elected: President, Henry Jeldness; Vice President, Wallace Eakin; Secretary, Minnie Noe; Treasurer, Tong Sing; Sergeanh at Arms, Carl Sanders; Artist, Rudolph Kinkella; and Class Editor, Emma Wootton. A second meeting was held October 27, 1909. The meeting was called for the purpose of selecting class colours. The Freshmen again turned out in great numbers. The famous colours “green and white” were elected by the majority. The boys of the class formed an exellent football team, choosing Leroy Jones for Captain. The largest class that the Astoria High School has known, has great hopes that it may be the best. We mean to make it so. The Sophomores of spirits light, Higgle away from morn till night. But for sober lad and quiet lass, See the dignified Freshman class.

Exchanges Last year a nnmer of school papers were on our exchange list, and we hope to see all of the oid ones this year and many new ones. As yet but few copies have arrived, so we shall mention some of the June numbers. The commencement number of the “Courier from Monmouth is very good; but a few drawings would improve it. A very interesting exchange is the “Skookum Wa Wa from Centralia, Washington. ' 1 he drawings and cuts are exceptionally good and add much to the attractiveness of the paper. The Hood River “Mascot” for June has some good editorials. ' I he “Junco-Ed from Junction City, Oregon is well gotten up but would be better if it had more illustrations. The “Tangent” from Ontario has some very good stories. The October “Lens from Portland is a very good number. Its stories are interesting and from the editorials we see that the pupils then have a good shan of Cass spirit. The “Hesperian from Hoquiam, Washington is well gotten up but it would look better if the advertisements were confined to the first and last papers instead of being inserted among the editorials.
