In April the special chorus presented ‘'.Jewel Maiden. in the Parish House. Five members of our class took part and helped make it the success that it was. In June. Regents were again inflicted upon us. This time we with- stood them better and lost only a few' members. When we returned as Juniors, we found a larger number, some of whom are yet Juniors, waiting to join our class. This year we were destined to receive more honors. One of our members was chosen manager of the football team, while some of our classmates were members of the team. When the Glee Club was organized one of our members was chosen secretary. During the first half-year, one of our representatives to the Athletic Council was elected treasurer. In the spring, the assistant manager of baseball was one of us, while many of our members played on the team. In May, we joined with Seniors in holding a picnic at Cross Lake. The Seniors furnished the eats' but the Juniors provided the chaperons. During the second half year, the vice-president of the Athletic Coun- cil was one of our representatives. On Memorial Day, a member of our class delivered General Logan’s Orders at the cemetery. And then came June Regents, which would decide whether or not we were to be Seniors. This year we were especially lucky, as we lost only six members. At length, late In September, twenty-six Seniors, recognized rulers of all they surveyed, entered the new school building and were assigned to room 107 under the supervision of Miss Wormuth. This year, although our last, was one most enjoyable. In every line we were able to capture honors. The president and the secretary of the Glee Club were chosen from our class. The vice-president and the secretary or the Athletic Council for the entire year were members of our class. Early in October an orchestra was organized, and of course, the Senior Class was represented. During the football season we furnished the team with some of Its best players. The manager of the boys’ basketball team was one of us. while many of the players on both the boys’ and girls’ teams were Seniors. Late in January we organized our class and elected our officers. Although the Class of '22 boasted of being the largest class ever graduat- ed from the High School, we take that privilege away from them, as we have four members more than they bad. With all their enthusiasm and •pep the Seniors began their activities early. On February 21st. the Seniors held a dance in the Grange Hall. Of course, who could help but have a delightful time at a dance given by such a class! In March the Junior-Senior banquet was held in the gymnasium. The Senior girls saw that plenty of “good eats’’ were furnished, while the president of the Senior Class very generously provided a toast list. Every- one had an enjoyable time. Then the baseball season—always full of school spirit. We gave our best students to the baseball team. In April for the first time since 11)18, the Bigelow Prize Speaking con- test was held in the auditorium. The Senior Class furnished two speak- ers for the occasion. Late in May, the Seniors held another dance in the Grange Hall. That it w'as a complete success. goes without saying. During the month of June we have had many enjoyable times, and we are here to-night, happy, since we know we are graduates, but sorry that we must leave B H. S. ANNA Kl'RLEY. 5
