S. was startled by a body of seventh graders about to embark upon their high school career. Never in the history of the Junior High had there been such a large class. The first semester we were very quiet for we thought it necessary to impress the upper classmen by our good behavior. The next semester we had a Valentine party which was a very great success. The decorations were in red and white, and the time was passed in playing games. Soon we were called upon to entertain in assembly. The boys’ quartet wras so well liked that they were asked to sing at other social activities. By this time we began to be recognized as a class with a future and not just as insignificant seventh graders, getting under the feet of the upper classmen. Toward the end of the year, we decided that a picnic was next in order so after much debating we planned to hold the picnic at O’Neil’s and invite the eighth SEVENTH GRADE EDITORIAL We just came over from the other building not so very long ago. At first it seemed kind of queer not to have recess and to go from one room to another to our classes, but we’re used to that now, since we’re full-fledged members of the Junior high. We always used to forget which books to take along and when the bell rang we’d ju t run and forget all about our books. But that was a whole year ago We’ll let bygones be bygones. There’s quite a few of us and the teachers find it difficult to handle us sometimes, especially during this nice spring weather we’re having: but what can they expect of us, the first year in Junior high? Our sponsor is Mrs. Johnson and we all like her fine. Our other teachers are Mr. Zimmerman. Mr. Yuhasz, and Mrs. Hawver. Our subjects are as follows: English. Science, Geography and History, Domestic Science and Shop. At the beginning of the year we found it difficult (Continued on page 35) (Continued on page 41)

They we e a frightened, shy-acting group of children an they trooped into Miss Anderson’s room to be enrolled. The things uppermost in their minds were to procure a seat and to keep it—which they did if they were good. After many troubles and embarrassing mistakes they learned their schedules of study and managed to get to their classes without more than knocking down, or running into, five or six upper classmen. When they organized their class they made Roy Maney president. Mary Fredlund vice president, and Alice Easbey secretary and treasurer. By the end f their first year in this great knowledge factory they had nearly forgotten their childish way8 which they had brought with them from the other school building. In 1926 nearly all of them returned to this “said knowledge factory.” Mrs. Williams was to be their home room teacher; and after electing their class officers they settled down to do some real good hard work. But like all the other well meaning children they grew tired of all work and no play so they decided to have a party—they invited the seventh graders to this. After their party they found that the semester exams were just around the corner. After they had breasted thh new menace to their happiness as well as could be expected of them they were called upon by Mr. Julian to do their stuff in Assembly—and they did. by giving several numbers, the best of which was “That Love of a Bonnet.” Tiring again of hard work and no play they gave a St. Patrick’s party—which was a great success. This was the year that old C. H. S. gave the exhibition, and this gave our bright little freshman class another chance to show their abilities. They made Montana Government booklets and displayed their musical talents by singing in the Glee Club. In 1927, their class had become so large that they found it necessary to be enrolled in two home rooms. Mrs. Williams’ and Mrs. Zimmermans’. Una Barber was elected president for this year. They have not seemed to find it necessary to have as many (Continued on page 35)
