No indeed! It will always re- main green and fresh in our memory. 'Twas upon a warm sunshiny March afternoon that this fwhat'll I call it?J occurred. The Botany class fboys, every last one of 'emi very kindly in- vited the girls to accompany them on a hike, and, as Mrs- Paden pressed the invitation we did not like to refuse them the honor. For we are very obliging, especially when the preference hangs between Geometry and the budding forest. So we accompanied them. Off' we went, across field and dale, logs and fences, with an occas- ional pull of a hill that was almost a young mountain, until at last, tired and loaded with all sorts of specimens, we reached the beautiful Yanuba. There upon its banks we seated ourselves to study our speci- mens. 'Ere long some one rising from among the leaves, branches, rocks, spiders, lizzards and a thousand more or less other things, looking around over the crowd, noticed that Wilder, one of our number, had disappeared. Wild were our ejaculations when this fact was made known to us. Whatever had become of him? Just a few minutes be- fore he had sat there among us, apparently very much interested in the study of a butterfly's heart. But so great had been our interest that we did not know but that he was still there in our midst. With our fears and excitement growing higher and higher each minute, we began a systematic search for him. Some climbed trees, the highest points of observation, to see if he had wondered off' chas- ing butterflies. Others sounded the depths of the creek to see if he had fallen therein, whiie others looked from tree to tree, under rocks and brush piles, with a constant shout of the lost one's name. Another thrill ran thru the, crowd when it was discovered that Black Joe our faithful Class Dog, was also missing. Great indeed was our excite- ment, but still the search continued. Suddenly our search was arrested and everybody stopped right where he was standing flinging a protective hand over his nose. Was there ever such an odor? Surely the German's poisonous gas had not found its way to our peaceful little district! But indeed, so it seemed. Can you imagine our wonder when directly from the direction whence came the wind, appeared Wilder and Black Joe, lost ones- what on earth was that object? It was a black kitty, so we found out later, with a broad white strip down its back- But let me tell you there was not a member of that party ready to stop and examine it, for the nearer you got to it, the sicker you became. So we moved, as fast as our feet could follow our heads toward home. But Wilder and Black Joe were not willing for us to leave them very far behind, and as both are good travellers, they were soon in the lead, and very unfortunate for us, in the same direction of the breeze. Gradually we dropped back, but tthat loathsome'odor seemed'to envelope us like a winding sheet. Sicker and sicker we grew, until at last Wilder withdrew, carrying along with him Black Joe and their catch-THE SKUNK. UTantaene Anfnfs Caelestfleus Iraefy' .-14...

Atho we rceeived many jeers for .being Freshies, we labored with untiring efforts, for we then realized that Honor lies in honest toil. Thru the kindness shown us by our two instructors, Prof. E. C. Grubbs and Mrs. Paden, our work was a pleasure to us rather than a task. We will admit we had a few short-comings, as all Fresh- men do. But by the close of the term we had proved that we were in the race to win, for every one made a standing of ninety and was ex- empt from the exams. . Those of the class then present were Dixie and Dollie Elledge, Nannie Holcombe, Laura Roberts, Ester Stevens, and Flora Wright. Dixie, who does not love the name of Dixie? True, she is the genius of' the class, and is truly a type of our beloved Southland- Dollie, by some might be termed an old maid, on account of her fondness for cats. She will confess she is a coward when cows are around, but she is ever ready to aid those who are in need. Nannie, better known as Nan to the class, can not help being so popular, and is always missed when she is absent from class, because of her good nature and jokes. Laura, our baby, is petite, it is true. Altho small, she stands high in her class and is loved by all for her sunny disposition- Ester, altho her red hair might suggest ill temper has as lovable a character as my be found any where. Flora, when once you have made her acquaintance, you cannot keep from loving her. She loves everybody and is kindness itself. At the beginning of the term of '15 we felt very much relieved, as we had once and for all thrown off the yoke of Freshie's. Now it was our turn to enjoy High School life. That year there was no new pupils added to the class. Our Sophomore year was one to be long re- membered, as we enjoyed various amusements and especially the hour and a half spent in the drawing rooms. Many a time did the halls echo with laughter. Some member standing guard would give the warning nod or word for all jokes and pranks to cease as he saw Prof. Grubbs emerging from one of the other drawing departments. Then were the T squares and triangles used with all diligence possible. During our Junior year a new Superintendent, Prof- C. H. Parrick of Oklahoma City, came to take charge of our school. There was also another instructor in the High School department, Prof. A. M. Mc- Cullough. These men were well qualified for the positions they held,, and soon won the honor and esteem ofthe entire class. Our class He- ing composed only of girls, we were termed, The Pet Class of the Faculty by the other classes. That year we became more cultured. We worked with more zeal and enthusiasm than was ever before shown. AAfvvfAA xfefxfxfxf-.fx,x.,xfxf-xfxfxz .
