W km Ii CLASS HISTORY Oh the great and glorious class of 29' Is it possible that this is our last year? Time has flown by with the fleetest of wings Four years ago we entered the portals of high school as neophytes seeking for knowl edge How exciting was that first day when we climbed the second flight of stairs to take our places' Almost before we had time to turn around the Sophomores welcomed us gaily by a dance given in our honor We sailed along safely till turkey gobbler time when the Juniors came walk ing down the hall smiled benignly upon us and said Will you ioin us in a dance? With great pleasure said we and a delightful evening was enioyed by all Now all this was rather bewildering until after mid terms when Howald Brown took the helm as oui president with Ph1l1st1a Smith vice president Harry D1 ake secretary and Alfred Cough lin treasurer Life was exciting-especially when one of those big Seniors smiled at us Our treasury was nearly empty when our presl dent went overtown pelsuaded the merchants that they wanted The Athenian returned and dropped in ten dollars the prize given for ob taining the highest number of paid subscriptions to the Annual These are the high points of interest in our first yeai And soon We were full fledged Sophomores gay and light hearted We elected Paul Hair president Esther Winters vice president Milrae Matteson secretary and Harry Drake tieasurer The speaking contest came along with Wilda Connelly carrying off first prize and Phyllis Lynch second The year crept to a close and track meet time was nigh It was a warm day and we neaily baked but it was worth while for We won' Juniors' Just the sound of the vsord filled us with pride As soon as Halloween came round, we gave a party at which strange figures flitted around the gym and there was a regular fortune teller. That was a great success. Noon and night there was a table down in the hall at which we sold box after box of candy. But still we did not have enough money for the big banquet. What should we do? Some wise person rose in class meeting and made a motion that we give a picture show. Ah, that was just the thing! The house was packed and oh, joy! we had nearly enough money for the banquet. But first came Junior Stunts. I don't believe any of us will ever forget the marvelous Spanish dance by Baker and Daniels, the orchestra with all kinds of unheard-of instruments, our trilling prima donna, Isabel Loveland, The Taming of the Shrew, our most knowing magician, Vernon Carle, or our mock class using the Seniors as models. And now we had the full amount of money needed. Time crept swiftly onward and the banquet day ar- rived. Bethel Hall was the rendezvous. All day we were busy getting great masses of buttercups, phlox, and ferns, decorating the hall with 'N 4 I ff f--, 1. Wf:ffiff,ggf4Q--f-11..FQs----.- .
