CLASS OF NINETY-EIGI-I T. The junior Class of B. C. Il. S. was organized November iz, 1896. It was then that the election of othcers took place, resulting : President, Gus VanWormerg First Vice-President, Lucia B. Mussong Second Vice- President, Roland llarrisong Secretary, Caroline E. Manng Treasurer, Halbert Lacey, and then for the first time did the seniors show a broth- erly interest in the class of ninety-eight. They tried to direct the pro- ceedings in Number Five from the other side of the transom: but their good intentions were shortly put to flight by the window stick. During the winter the seniors so far forgot their dignity as to pro- pose a joint skating party. Notwithstanding the fact that the ice was not in the best possible condition, and that ginger cookies were scarce, the party was a success. There was a rumor abroad that a certain few ot' the ninety-seven boys and also some of the ninety-eight girls wanted another skating party right away, but the warmth of their enthusiasm melted the ice. The event of the year to which the class of ninety-eight looks back with the greatest pleasure, is the delightful reception that Mr. Wales gave the class. Again our older brothers took an active part in the evening's entertainment. Quite unexpectedly the guests were received by a committee out-doors. And what a warm reception! O! the sere- nades! They sang until their voices were hoarse, and as they departed'- Say an revoir! but not good-bye - came iioating back. But it was good-byeg and the juniors, glorious in their green and white, watched the departure with deep regret. Then the arbutus party, the seniors wanted that a joint affair too, but-the juniors didn't. The president enjoyed himself enough for all the absent members, that day. The next Monday, the seniors, with sun-burned faces and scratched hands, but with no arbutus, longingly eyed the pink and white clusters that the juniors wore. Many other good times we have had, and we go on our way rejoic- ing that we have atleast one more year in our beloved B. C. H. S. Where, O! where are the jolly juniors ? Safe, now, in the senior class.
