Class of 1902 entered the High School in September of 1898 The rest followed them in February of the next year As we did not wishto show our ignorance and appear like children before the eyes of the . ' OST OF the members of the l - QQWT S ' ' zf 5 ' X rest of the class, and the Seniors, we came in the after- noon for the first two or threeidays. We thus became acquainted with the building, and the ways of the teachers, and when' we hnally ventured to put in an appearance at the morning session we felt as though we knew as much about High School life, as any of our predecessors. Our first year did not seem long as we had so many novelties to attract our attention. Every two weeks we had the pleasure of listening to the Fourth Year Rhetoricals, sometimes en- livened by the Glee Clubs. In this manner our Freshman year quickly passed, bring- ing june and the departure of the Class of P 99- SECOND YEAR.

We did not look forward to this year with very much interest, since we had learned all about the building we desired to know, and now fully understood what was expected of us. One ofthe most interesting events of this year was the Christmas Rhetorical of the Class of 1900. At that time the window given by the Class of ,QQ was unveiled, followed by recitations and a charade.

President Jones of Hobart, 'Mr. Thomas M. Osborne, and many others served to ease, to a certain ex- tent, the pressure of weary toil. After all it did not seem so very long before another class left us behind to plod on toward the long desired goalf I ' 1 THIRD YEAR . The Third Year seemed to be the short- est and most enjoyable of the whole four. We were in a peculiarly happy plane, above the exacting labors of the lower two years and yet free from cares of the Senior year. As the number of students pouring into the High School kept increasing each succeed- ing year, it was found necessary to reserve the West study room for the sole use of the Freshmen, while the upper three classes were to occupy the East room. just here
