I Class History To do »ur class justice, it may Ik well to no back to its beginning. Several years a no one or our members entered tin lirst grade of the primary depart- ment, ami. after years of plodding. Is now a Senior. From time to time there were additions to the small beginning, and now there is a membership of sixteen, coming from two counties. Our class individually as Seniora was consummated Septemlter ! , 1014. At this time officers were elected, and true Senior enthusiasm was instilled in the hearts of each member. What has lxsen accomplished? Through the influence of the Xineteen-llftoeners. the three lower high school grades have organized and are thus prepared to take up and continue the im] ortant work of Seniors. In addition to the regular school duties, our (’lass has inaugurated an aid to the instructors in the management of the reading room and library. This plan was approved by the principal, and the class took charge of this department. The results have been satisfactory, and many a miscreant has been made to bite the dust.” The class of Nineteon-llfteen is issuing the lirst annual of our worthy institution; and. after much consultation and persistent work, the annual has been made a success. In order to raise funds for this undertaking, a 1n x party was given, resulting in the realiza- tion of an encouraging sum. Next a play, “Scenes in a I'nion Depot.” was ventured and successfully given to the public. There has been earnest school work done by our members, but not to the exclusion of pleasant social Intercourses. We have the honor of being the lirst class to graduate from our completed new building and also the lirst class to issue a State High School Annual. Our worthy class is made up of a well balanced variety of sizes, ages, complexions, and temperaments; and according to home economics principals, the finished loaf will take blue ribbons.” —Historian. 1’.
