W I' as cv Class History N the 17th day of May 1909 we a class forty three strong ascended the steps of Bonne Terre High School as Freshmen How wonderful and pretty did we think we were ln our gay plumage with our class colors waving' And too we were a business like lot for we had already organlzed our class and elected its officers who were the following Presldent Will Norwme Vice President Thomas Vogt Secretary and Treasurer Frank Murphy Class His torlan Florence Williams After being told what great things were expected of us we were dlSmlSS6d to run free for three whole months How time did fly' For soon the morning of September 5th came and we were again gathered together not to enJoy the easy sailing hitherto experlenced in the grades but to combat with the tempests of High School life A schedule of our work was given to us and we were told by our prlnclpal what he expected of us Then the history teacher Introduced us to dear old Ancient next followed a lecture by the mathematlc s teacher and lastly we were told by our English teacher what a large amount of Enghsh she expected us to acquire Some were so frightened that they quit school while the others went bravely to work On this first day the notorious Freshmen were requested not to run up and down the stfnrs and were notlfied that they were not to leave school durlng school hours Before the week was past some of them got to converse with the principal ln the office In the latter part of September the second School Fair was held The Freshmen worked nobly and some of the best work was exhibited by them At last the year rolled by and we found ourselves gay young Sophs When school opened we got right to Work for we were now accustomed to High School life Durmg the winter we entertained the Freshman class at a recep t1on given at the Natatorlum Later a basket ball game was played in which our boys defeated the freshles At Christmas a nice plano bench which some of our boys helped to make ln Manual Tralmng was presented to the High School Later ln the year our boys made a fine library table for the study hall Durlng our Sophomore year some of the best work in athletics was done by members of our class In this way time passed and in September 1911 we again found ourselves gathered together as Jumors The first thing that made us shiver was the Ill troductlon to our new prmclpal At first we were given the privilege to leave school after our last class phvslcs in the afternoon but soon that was taken from us In January 1912 we gave the Seniors a reception In February the Seniors rave us '1 ieception at which we enjoyed ourselves very much 0 . 1 9 1 ' 1 1 - 7 1 ' 1 1 ' y 1 7 v ' y . 1 , .

The Juniors did the best of work and the year passed swiftly by. Then we found ourselves Grand old Seniors How great we thought we were! During September we elected an Annual Board and are proud to be the first class of this school that has ever published an Annual Alia Murphy Mabel Simms and Eva House from the class of 1914. Also Mar- garet Baugh from Doe Run Missouri and Carrie Biggs from Hume Missouri. We pride ourselves that these girls are a part of us. They have done some of the best work that has been done and we feel that they are a credit to our class. Now our four years work is completed We leave High School probably never to be gathered together again' Our class has grown smaller since we entered High School. Two of our class mates are married' many others have moved and we do not know where they are' and death has claimed three of our class-mates whom we had learned to love so well Thus ends the history of the class of 1913 But we hope that within a few years the names of many of our number will go down in the history of our state and nation to be read through many centuries and at least be recorded in the Great Book of Life ETHEL GENEVIEVE BERRY In Memorlam STELLA KATHERINE THORNTON BIRDIE L MALUGEN DEAN THOMPSON Bra 1 84 Y . ,I v ' ll yy il, ,Y At the first of the term, we gladly welcomed to our class, Mabel G.
