Junior Class History kNE SEPTEMBER morning in the year of 1914, twenty-eight of us boys and girls took our seats in the High School Assembly Hall as Freshmen. Oh, but we envied the privileged Seniors! We were prepared to tackle anything and everything except the jests and jeers from our fellow-students. Algebra and Latin racked our nerves and we longed for the time when we ourselves could laugh at the “Green Freshies.” The next year, as Sophomores, “We came, we saw, we conquered.” Then, twenty in number, we entered the second lap of our race, became better acquainted with “dear old school life,” and labored hard with almost unconquerable difficulties. We strengthened our knowledge with Geometry, Caesar and Modern History. We must have made Caesar turn over in his grave by our translations. W e are now finishing the third year of ourschool sentence. We will soon be free. We jolly Juniors now say “I should worry.” No more Caesar, no more Geometry and no more H istory. We shall enter our last year with adifferent opinion of school days. Take it from us, “school days” are the best of days. JWotto: Laugh and the World Laughs With You. Colors: Purple and Gold.
