C l' M T !' X 2!) Again, the crew of now only twenty-one, for many had been lost and some new ones had joined, gathered on deck one f ne morn- ing in September. The whistles blew and the bel's rang and the “Class of 1917” sailed off on her hard and tedious Sophomore journey. Who should they meet but the squares and cubes of Al- gol.in. but the red headed pilot Mr. Warren never once worried over the safety of his crew for he knew that they were capable of doing anything and could be easily led through Algebra and be ready to meet Oieomctry. The little boat was tossed about cruelly both by the deafning storm of Latin under Miss Selmlze, and French under Mr. Calloway. Led by Miss Shaw, they passed through Kn- glish; they were soon the pets of Miss Schulze as they recited learn- edly the mythical stories of Greece and Rome and how Rome grew. Talent had been developed in that little crew for had not many been received into the Glee Club and did they not produce great debaters, declaimers and even athletes? At last tin Junior shore was sighted and with joyful hearts they disembarked till summoned again. On September twenty-first Nineteen hundred fifteen the steady crew once more assembled to begin as Juniors, llow might' and big thev felt as they looked back on the days when the had been trembling Freshmen and were just starting on their long vojage. How long ago that seemed. Kven when Sophomores, they had not always been sure of themselves but, now, why! they were almost Seniors. And how proud they were of Holton High building, the pride of those to whom it belonged and the envy of those who did not possess it, with its brand new staff of teachers, excepting Mr. Brame. Mr. Galloway. Mr. Snodgrass, Miss Clemens and Miss Shaw, for no one could get a'ong without these, llow they feared the right angles, parallelograms and such in Geometry, but were to] not to fear by the 1 aimed Mr. Smith! How Caesar and French piloted by Miss Irene Miller and Mr. Galloway held terrors for them, llow they were led thru English, first by Mr. Dutton and then Mi- Elmore! llow Miss Reek held them spell-bound by her lectures on Modern and Medieval History at “night” as they sat on deck! How they experimented in Physics aided bv Mr. Snodgrass! All these things made the really long voyage short and. at lftst. the success- ful ones, on deck one day saw land; and as they put their feet on the ground became happy Seniors.

The little crew, number- ing forty-three, felt very small and insignificant by the side of the mighty boats of the Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors. The current bore them on and on and they met the flowers and plants of Botany lead by Miss Perkins. They entered into the hardships and gales of English, but capable Miss Schulze safely guided them to harbor and. of course, they were led deeply into ihe study of Zoology by Mr. Snodgrass. And oh! how hard they wrestled with the big waves of higher Arithmetic, aided by Mr. Caldwell. Even these storms and others that bore down upon the young heads of that crew did not stop nor sink them but they passed everything and sailed into the Harbor of the Learn- ed Sophomores and were praised by the worthy admiral Mr. Brame.
