dluninr (Elaas liiaturu I O' Not unlike Medieval History, the Junior class history may be divided into three periods. The Freshman year of our school life may be compared to the “Dark Age,” the Sophomore to the “Period of Revival,” and the Junior year to the “Era of Reformation.” Now the reasons for these comparisons are very plain. For was not the inrush or entering of us as Freshmen (1912 into the High School like unto the inrush of the barbarians, which almost eclipsed the light of “Classical Literature?” Also we have found out in our experiences that we were criticised for our actions as much, if not more, by the higher students, as were the barbarians. And then it was also the beginning of new languages and methods for us. Next the Sophomore year is similar to the “Age of Revival,” for it began with us (once barbarians) in discovering a new world. During the time before we were slowly being civilized to the ways by which we might gain knowledge. We were, little by little, being recognized as the coming class which would command the respect of all. Our class showed great possibilities. The one thing we lacked, during this period, was the right to hold our own on equal basis, with the best of them. At last.—we have attained that right. We are now like unto the “Era of Reformation.” We are free to do as we please. We are beginning a series of reforms, by organizing ourselves into one party, which can dispute any policy that the other party (Seniors might suggest, providing it is not pleasing to us. We have envoys in all the different courses of the High School, not omitting athletics, music and debating. Having now as much as any one body can wish, we only look forward to the last period, “The Era of Political Revolution.” In this we can stir up interest in the lower classes, by putting into words and actions that which we shall have learned, and so be “SENIORS” in every sense of the word.
