At that time twenty-one of us poor shivering children entered upon a career, which we thought our ambition would make a success. We struggled bravely against criticism and had hard roads to travel through Latin and Algebra. Fourteen swelled chests appeared in the Sophomore class of 1910. Seven having lost a good footing and slipped from school; the preced- ing year. At the close of this year to the great distress of those re- maining we discovered that six more of our honorable classmates had withdrawn, leaving the small number of eight to tread the thorny paths alone. But at the beginning of our third year, 1911 we welcomed with joy a newcomer; who withdrew again at the close of the first semester. Right able and ambitious members still remain who are able to main- tain the honorable name of a 1912 Junior.

BUTLER HIGH SCHOOL, 1912 26 JUNIOR CLASS POEM. We’re the jolly Juniors Of the B. H. S. Ten we are in number Wide awake? Yes, oh, yes. Yes, we’re the jolly Juniois As happy as can be, Ruby G. bade us adieu And westward bound was she. But still we are the Juniors, If only nine in number, But fate’s decree was kind to be And sent to us another. And again we are the Juniors, Ten faces bright If for debate we’re called upon, We’re equal to the task. Jolly Juniors? that’s what we are For wisdom, brains and knack, We’ll not go back, take off our hats To any of the “fac.” Loyal Juniors? Yes, that’s we Forget a friend? not much, For Joe has prove ! himself to be And to the end as such. And so as jolly Juniors, So soon we must all part, But in the fall of 1912 As Seniors we will start.
