? isJtorp of opfjomore Clagg We are the animal class. When we entered school last year we impressed everybody so much by our abilities that whenever we passed such expressions were heard as : My ! she has the grace of a fawn, the strength of a lion, the agility of a monkey, the timidity of a hare, the fierceness of a tiger, the instinct of a bird, or the wisdom of an owl, and so on. Each was recognized as repre- senting the characteristic peculiar to some animal named, one of the class. There was no flower, great man or race of men that could represent us. It took the whole animal kingdom to do us justice. Helen Brett was our manager, and very wise was she in attending to us dur- ing our first semester. When she spoke in our class meetings her voice roared so much like a lion ' s that you could see Madam Tigress (that ' s Rosebud Nowell) raise her bristles and Sis Coon (that ' s Maggie Duke) would slip off and hide in one corner of a bench, not to speak another word the whole evening. When spring came there was a change made in our manager and her assist- ants. The tigress took the lead. Under her care, we learned a yell and adopted class colors. At the beginning of the year 1913, Mary T. Evans, our stately giraffe, be- came our guardian. In high flown ideas, aspiration and dignity we reached our height. Under Mary T. ' s leadership the strides we made in so short a time have been surprising. The spirit to e.xcel in athletics was developed on the part of the class. Muscular training appealed to them rather than mental. The ability to ski-p (piano practice), cut (classes), and saw (tough beef) attained perfection. Now, we have reached more mature growth, and are chiefly in charge of Myra Aumack, our gentle lamb, and are looking forward to great achievements this spring. Already we see the .Juniors looking back in jealousy, wishing there was the strength of character, the definiteness of purpose and the ability to com- mand in their class that we possess. The Seniors have given up in despair and secretly (when no Junior is around) ask our advice, judgment and assistance in their essays. But why need we any further history? Let the picture speak for itself. Hlstorian.
