On a bright smmy September morning tin doors of tin high school were thrown open to admit sixteen freshmen. Ambitions and enthusiastic, yet hest.it a ting, they marched into the assembly and neeupied the desks on the “east side.” Wll went wall until the fatal day of September, tin thirteenth, when the sophomores performed the annual feat of initiating tin timid freshmen. The activities were carried out in tin wide open spaces at tin Teton river. I'pon resuming the activities in the school after the initiation the fresh men found themselves to he more at “home! 4 It is queer to note that only an “introduetion was necessary to bring to light 1 Ik hidden fine qualities of Some ot tin members ot tin class The first semester found lnosl of the mem- bers of the class sailing along clear of the ruts, and with added enthusiasm and determination the second semester began. We selected “Face tin sun and you will not see your shadow' for our class motto and blue and gold for our class colors. Lenore Kow and Marthelin Kincaid have taken part in ttlee Hub.

Fcfore starting onr work we were duly initiated by the Sophomores. Whatever success, achievement and honor we may claim, is tine entirely to the spirit and effort of the croup. During the first year Some of the group failed to carry out the activities and thus lingered behind. These were: Alfred Fliristman. Teddy Weist, Robert Reedy, and Karl Ihomp- 8on. We soon found the first term closing on us Seventeen of ns had climbed the first step to success. The second step seemed much easier than the first. Our first privilege was to initiate the freshmen. We determined to take a good foothold and hang on. And we did! Alf was still president; Mary was vice president; Florence, secretary and treasurer; Anna, reporter; Father May. our repre- sentative to the student council ; Miss Xelson, our sponsor. The class was grief-stricken on November 21 to hear that one of onr class- mates, .Mary Johnson, had passed away in the Fourth! hospital, of pneumonia. Mary was a well liked citizen in the community as well as in school. To solve the problems and carry out each task that fared ns. we used ns our basic rule: “Rut forth every effort you are capable of. so that yon may accomplish the best of things.'” Xow the second term is coming to a close. We have about taken the first two steps of inr journey. Therefore, we must say “goodbye until another yea r. 19 Florence Kauk.

Junior High History BACK ROW i Ivft to riiihti: Mr. S ibert. sponsor: Electa Peeler, Richard Weikum, Helen Blake, Hal Goilehon. Wilma Johnson, Howard Schlepp, Gladys Johnson. MIDDLE ROW: Mildred Thompson, Irene Stinson, Russel Wikstrom, Lueile Burdick, Clarence Mustoe, Rachel Jermunson. Roy Garner, Anita Mowbray. FRONT ROW: Bobby Kincaid.

This year for tin first time in tin history of tin 1 Irmly schools the work of tin 7th and 8th grades was departmentalized, giving the students the oppor- tunity of more intensive training in the four major fields of study— mathe- matics, social Science, English, and science, together with work in manual training, home making, and music, all under teachers trained especially in these fields. The junior high school pupils may tako part in certain school activities formerly open only to the senior division. Electa Peeler, Mildred Thompson, and Gladys Johnson are in the hand. Until Uouns, Gladys Johnson, Wilma Johnson, Kachel Jermunson, and Viola Zimhelman are. in the Glee Club. For many students the break from the eighth grade to high school is too great. The change is apparently too abrupt. With the junior high school arrangement the gap is filled and the passage from grade school to high school is more gradual. 'Though the junior high is new to us. we realize that it is not new in this country. It has been in use in the larger and more progressive schools for years. The idea is a natural growth from the study of tin needs of hoys and girl —another step in the progress of education. . s the modern truck and car is advanced over the ox-cart and horse and buggy days so it is felt that the junior high school provides enriched oppor- tunities only dreamed of in the crowded country school, with all grades and only a few minutes devoted to each recitation; and that the chance tor con- tacts, development of initiative and self-reliance, and varied program is far in excess of that possible in ;i one leaclier, one room nrrniigeinent.
