Gained knowledge, apprehending masters, Accepting any sort of guide, O'er-running disasters. The seniors love the days of yore. Those freshman days of green misguidance, The sophomore days of scarcely more, The junior year of wise ascendance. But the spirit of the class of twenty-eight, In number half a score and four. Aiming for success so great, Shall live forevermore. —Edna Hess. Class Song Words by Edna Hess Tune: “Drifting and Dreaming.” Now we must say “Good bye,” For the time is nigh And we wonder why. We must leave good old Byron High Teachers and Board, too, We will all miss you, But you know why that we must sigh. Chorus: Good-bye to High School And everyone. We thank our Class-mates For all past fun. Mem'ries are sweet, yet We must regret That we are leaving Byron High School. iMiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiinimiiiMMmiiiiiiiiHiiiiiiiiiiimnmiimmimiiiiiiiimiimummiiiiiiiMiiiiiiuniii ............................................................... mi 1 9 2 •Hiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiir ’iiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiin.il........linn............................................................. linn page nineteen

mmmmimimmmmimmimmmmmmmmmmmiimmm mmmmmmM The Wanderings of the Tribe of ’28 In the moon of golden fruit of the year 1924, the tribe of Fr-es-hman, meaning beginners, numbering forty, including nineteen squaws and twenty- one braves, entered a new land called Hi-sc-ho-ol, ruled by the chief Ach-vi- Ly-n. Upon learning that in this land an individual tribe must have its leaders, the tribe held council and selected as chief, Jack Calvert; vice chief, Harry Woods; chronicler, Roy Etnyre; and keeper of the-treasures. Ruth Miller. Because the chief Ach vi-Lyn and his assistants could not ru'e our tribe as a whole, we were compelled to divide into two sections of twenty each. We were allowed to live in our own part of the hunting grounds, but had to be guarded over by an assistant squaw, Edna Le Card. Being jovial and full of fun she participated in several of our feasts and pow-wows. A few of our stalwart braves were allowed to participate in the races and games of all the tribes under the leadership of Pi ja-Yoe. It seems that all the tribes moved each year. There was a fruitful hill in this country and those living nearest the top were the most victorious and resourceful. When the summit was reached, according to Indian legend, these tribes one by one went over the top into a world of doubt and labor. It was considered an honor to move over this hill, so our tribe strove to near the top. Thus in the next year of 1925 we moved all our belongings to the camp next to us and were compelled to change our name to the Sof o mor tribe. Our number was limited in the year since many of our members wandered off alone, in hopes of finding a shorter way to the other side of the hill while some had not been strong enough tribesmen to continue the journey with us. A new tribe of Fr-es-hmen moved into our old camp so we gave a feast for them that they might be encouraged on the way. Being an ambitious tribe we began to make plans to reap harvest for our coming interests. We gave several sales of sweets made by the hands of our own squaws. W e also gave a show. After much labor we succeeded in presenting our play, “The Empty House,” supervised by squaw Agnes Franz, now our tribe adviser. Most of our braves were now participating with enthusiasm in the athletics directed by Chief Reginald Queen. The squaws entered their sec- ond year of singing in the Glee Club of Miss Franz while some tried to beat their tom-toms in the band and orchestra of squaw Helen Zick. In the year of 1926 we again moved camp. Wre were now just beginning the last half of the ascent of the hill. As we climbed higher and higher the way became more difficult and disasters presented themselves more often.
