THE ACORN 25 OJLAlSS REPORTS FRESHMAN A rather cool way of revenge was experienced by a Preside the other day. The defensive elements used by the Juniors was in the shape of ice cream cones. A number of the Freshmen boys and girls have left Bethel of late; we surely miss them very much; and wishing them the best success, we hope to see their smiling faces here again next year. Just to let you know where you would find most of the freshies during nonschool days and nice weather: Payne Ave.. Phal-en Park, Lake Harriet. Minnehaha Falls, tennis court, out in the green reading Silas Marner and also picking flowers for the Botany class. “Farewell, ye Freshie days, with all your mirth and happiness. We leave you with great regret, knowing that nothing more of importance ‘will again be beard of us until the gloomy senior days.” As Freshies. we are exceedingly happy to bear this name at this time of the year, when the “Freshie” element in nature is so exquisitely being revealed everywhere; a fact which illuminates the countenance- cf the beautiful dark eyed lassie and the mischievous happy-go-lucky laddie, and makes the world at large truly joyous over its existence. SOPROMOR Nine sophomores are we All happy as can be Wait until exams are over Then we will be Juniors. Victor Larson, our president and de-bator. Elmer Turnblom one of our nine, Always smiling on the baseball diamond, (lust Boberg with some more baseball practise, Wi.l make his fellow class-mates take notice.

Lydia Fran sen has day dreams of which we have no trace, 'I he only answer we gel is a smile from her innocent face. Lillian Stonestrom our Latin shark, Always singing like a lark. JUNIOR There’s an ancient college saying, and it runs somewhat like this. That a student’s right is clover, when he reaches senior’s bliss. The 1915 class has lately begun to realize the truth of the above statement. As the other students are looking forward to the vacation, so the Juniors walk around, as dignified as old country parsons, thinking of the opening of the Fall-term 1914. The class has held monthly meetings throughout the school year, has chosen its pennant colors: “Green and White Motto: Know thyself. Flower: Lily or the Valley.” Thankful to the Faculty and fellow students for the favor done us the past year. We are the Class of '15.
