JJ J'1'.r J 'a i1-J' 'se of the moss Howers showed their faces at the party, and everyone enjoyed the gay festival. When the football season was over, four scarlet and grey Howers thought that it was their place to display their winning faces in our moss garden. They were Gilbert Pils, Erwin Stoller, Charles Myer, and Raymond Lenington. VVe were favored with another visit of the bumble bee on February 10. This time three pale blue flowers were seen in the moss garden. They were Ray- mond Lenington, Vae Hogan, and Idelle Augspurger, who upheld our ideals throughout that season. Again the garden of moss flowers enjoyed a party at the gymnasium. It was in the form of a Maytime party, and was very frivolous, and beautiful. Many flowers nodded tired heads and weary petals after this elaborate event. On May 29 our garden of moss flowers disappeared, but on August 31, forty- six brilliant Howers peeped their faces into the garden of green moss. One warm day in September a robin came chirping to us and sang that it was his wish that three cerise flowers would appear in our garden of moss for a few months. These flowers were Erma Sandmeyer, Kenneth Tapke, and Vae Hogan. Two gay Flowers, Miss Barth and Mr. Twardock were chosen to direct us. Again a butterfly rested upon our Hoat at the Community Fair Day parade, and told us that we had won fifth prize. This season, three scarlet and grey flowers came to our door and asked to be welcomed to our moss garden. They were Raymond Lenington, Charles Myer, and Denzil May. The moss flowers enjoyed a Weiner roast at the Tourist Park on October ll. The flowers of the moss garden were fading in color on January 18 and 19 when a big wooly worm came crawling around with semester examinations. A snowbird perched itself on our window sill one cold day in February and delivered a message to the moss Howers, that four golden Howers should enter our moss garden for the remaining months. The golden Howcrs were Kenneth Tapke, Raymond Lenington, Robert Streid, and Charles Myer. Our moss garden then went to rest for the second time in this wide world, but the moss flowers of '34 hope to bloom brighter than ever the next two years.

THE MOSS FLOWER OF '34 It was a bright, sunshiny day, in September, when a garden of moss with Fifty-four green buds entered the Chenoa Community High School. Along came a bumble bee buzzing to us on September 10, that three small buds were to show themselves in our moss garden for the first season. VVe chose the Streid delegates, and elected Robert Streid as president, Ferne Streid as vice-president, and Francis Streid as secretary-treasurer. In a few days these small buds opened and showed their color of delicate pink, that along with the green moss would make our class colors for our four years in this wide world. It was thought necessary that two bright yellow Howers should be chosen as class sponsors, and we chose Miss Holman and Mr. Elson to guide us. A butterfly flew into our midst on September 25 and brought us a message that we had won fourth prize with our float which we entered in the parade on Community Fair Day. Nothing surpassed the joy of the moss Howers when a jolly grey squirrel came to tell us that we could have a Hallowe'en party at the gymnasium. Several l26l -i.1 -17 l1. Ql nl i
