Each of the classes put on a stunt in front of the court-house and to my great joy the Seniors were declared winners and received the ice cream. One morning I was wakened from my sleep by one of those bad Junior boys pulling a feather from my tail. Just after I was through chastising him I noticed a gentleman. who proved to be a representative of the Auld Jewelry Co., walking clown the hall. About a month later I noticed the Seniors conspicuously holding up their hands which showed rings flashing on their fingers. About this time they began to feel the need of a class patron: they called a meet- ing, and chose Senator U. G. Young. One night while on my way to the Domestic Science room for my midnight lunch, I happened to look through the transom of the English IV room and saw Miss Boylen and a few Senior students looking through some papers. There, she said, it is all ready for the printerg a few days later French Hyre handed me a copy of School Life and I realized then what they had been doing that night. I read that copy and all the rest and found the paper better this year than ever. Early in tlfe fall this class presented a Kipling program in chapel. In the football squad of 24 were found many stars from the Senior Class, and several of these were found on the basket-ball team which played up to the finals in the State Tournament. During the holidays Dan Cupid was very busy among the members of this class and extracted at least four members from the ranks. One evening while visiting the High School gym, I found it all decorated with red hearts and many lanterns and colors. I found that the Seniors were giving themselves a Valentine party, so I stayed and watched the proceedings of the evening. They played progressive hearts until about ten o'clock and then were served with ice cream, cake, candy and salted peanuts. I would like to tell you about the Junior-Senior banquet, but I am not feeling well because I was not invited to it, so I will let you find out the details for yourself. No doubt I will swell with pride as I witness the commencement exercises of my favorite class. ,,..' t I ..,, I wx F l37I
