SOPHOMORE CLASS ETHEL SCOTT When we think of Ethel we think of one who is always alive, in- dustrious and full of fun. She abounds with surplus energyg giggles at every turn of her head, has a smile for all whom she meets and like most women. always has something to say. She takes great pleasure in studying Bible men, such as David and Samuel, and has a special liking to anything Brown, Her yellow curly hair, blue eyes and fair complection cause many an admiring eye to be cast in her direction, DAVID THOMPSON David as every one knows is the most mischievous boy in school. He likes to tease the teachers and all his class mates too. David al- ways did like to make a noise and is always known hy his walk downstairs. He is great on playing trieks and can look so innocent. Among David's g'ood traits-this we must admit-he always wears a smile. From his autobiography we quote the falloiviiigz In the Ilall of 1917 I entered C. T, H. S. and was soon shoved in public life. Right at nrst I was admired for neatness in writing. Immediately I got to work, stayed up late at nights, worked and crammed, yet it pleased the faculny lwhat else is there 1 i school life anywayj and so I have kept up through the entire two years. THE SOPHOMORES A Sophomore class, in number eight Attend C. T. H. S. They're always there, but sometimes late, Tho this, we hate to confess. There are four girls, there are four boys' All happy, bright, and gay, Some day they'll be of great renown As 'those who know them say. Mary Ethel Scott has curly hair, Of a somewhat yellow hue, She's tall and slim and nicknamed Specksg Her eyes are a grayish blue. 9 A cheerful blond with a sunny smile Is Catherine Richerlt, gayg She's always in for lots of fun And is singing all the day. Mary Walker is 'the smallest one In all the Sophomore classy Brown hair, blue eyes, and very small, Surely a Winsome lass. And yet one more in all she does Is very sure to win, 'Tis Mary Wallace, whom we know Excels with her violin. A comic boy, with very light hair, Five feet, nine, that is his heightg Surely that is David Thompson A Sophomore young and bright. Lzon Clayton excels in flees, He spoke at the contest too, He's five feet, eight, and wears his hair Straight back, and his eyes are blue. Brown hair, gray eyes, with spetaclesg That's Boite our debatorg He started to s.hool just one week late. NVe're glad he was no later. Jules Beaumariage gives great orationsg He can give one any time, He has brown hair and hazel eyes. And in study he does shine. The Sophomores work so very hard They work while they work, you knowg But if Miss Kendall says, go for flowers, They're always ready to go. Dave and Jules always ask questions That have no meaning at all. John and Leon are not so noisy, But oh, how they can play ball! The girls all play basket ball, And sometimes they ride a hikeg But they'd rather go for flowers For they certainly love a hike. And last, hut not least of all. tYou will be surprised at this.l An orchestra, we Sophomores have, When WE play, the music is hliss.

SOPHOMORE CLASS MARY WALKER Goods goods is done up in small packages. Mary is a member of that illustrious class which Dave calls Suphymore. She is so tiny the others often crowd her from view, but when it comes to basket ball she's seen for she's ever where y . In studies Mary excels manyg she never asks foolish questions as do some of the gentlemen of her class, but recites in a brief, concise way, giving just the desired informationg and this can be given on divers subjects for she is one of our lasses who hails from the coun- try and has become well informed on natural phenomenon. MARY WALLACE Mary, Mary, not quite so contrary How does your knowdedge grow, With doc to admire in the grandest attire You sure ought to make things go. Mary has been bothered with heart trouble of late, but is under the strict care of the doctor and bids fair to recover, She is a member of the high school orchestrag takes an active part in all the activities of school life, and has a charming personality which quickly wins the favor of all with whom she comes in contact. JOHN BOLTE He studies hard from morn 'till night And shows he's not a foolg And when it comes to History class The rest all look real cool. He talks and talks a whole book through 'Till the periods must be lengthened, And those around just realize Their minds are being strengthened. He very little mischief knows, To all he is kind and trueg What ever you ask he willingly does And proves what he can do. 20. JULES BEAUMARIAGE Jules is a Sophomore, but worse than the rest. He is wise and full of pep and always up to some trickg then has the fun of standing back and seeing some one else punished for it. He has many arguments about Algebra and generally thinks he is in the right. This will do him good for it is the asking of questions that teaches boys things. He will soon be a Junior and a wise one too. When he is studying American Literature I bet he will say, I am going to be a poet, for all these men have bad habits too. CATHERINE RICHERT Catherine started as a Freshman in High School And with her we're not allowed to fool. She has had her lessons every day And can say all her A B C's 'cept the letter J. But now she is a Suph,-Suphymoref' And talks of quitting school o'er and o'erg But we hope .she banishes that thought and will stay To see the bright dawn of her Commencement Day. LEON CLAYTON To soar, Sir! To soar, Sir! Pap has been with us two years and he's always with us-never misses a day, and the puzzling thing about his being here is that hefs first here to every classg but this is just the way of Me Too. 'tVarie'ty is the spice of life, and Clayton is our varietyg he never carries the same expression two seconds at a timeg neither does he carry his trombone practice days, but must go home for it last period. Without the least bit of effort he can entertain a whole room by just going about his usual work. However. we're mighty proud of Claytong he's a good fellow, a hard worker, splendid athlete, always to be relied upon and considering his wonderful gen- ius as an impersonator we predict for him a brilliant future on 'the platform.

Class Colors Maroon and White. Class Flower Red and White Roses. Class Motto Esse quam videre. VELMA SCOTT Scotty as she is most generally called is a member of the Freshman class and also the Philo Literary So- ciety, both of which she is a popular member. Whenever you want to find Velma just go to Miss Kelso's room and you will find her working Algebra or studying' Latin. There is not the least doubt that Velma is going to be a strong supporter of C. T H. S. It is the hard work of Velma after school which keeps our rooms and desks so nice and clean. Immediately at 3:45 o'c'lock .she is seen with her broom and soon begins to make the dust fly, which chases us very quickly. FRESHMAN CLASS Back row: left to right-Velma Scott, Margaret Powell, Hazel Shephard Alphonsine DeBlander, Grace Allan. Front row-Lamar DelaneyLMark Kelso, Harry McEwen, Joseph Chupinsky MARGARET POWELL Margaret a Freshie of 1918-1919 escaped from having the flu. and proceeded to quit school. She decided to work her way up in a department store and influence her customers with her voice so soft and low. Thi.s business got old and the bank roll small. The boys got wise and said: We want you to come back, Miss. And so she did. Now she can pat herself on the back for she is safe from those bar- gain counter raids. Margaret has been a beautiful writer since her childhood days and now in the Freshman class she can not be excelled. As for the character of her work we've never heard anyone make a fuss, but she is well known for her beautiful poetic productions. 22.
