Without delay We became acquainted with the surroundings and soon organized, choosing class oliicers, class colors, a class flower, and a motto. Initiation took place on September 20 in the High School gymnasium and after being shocked by electricity and subjected to many harrowing experiences, we shook hands with the High Mogul and were duly entered as students of the C. P. C. H. S. With the exception of four-Fern Boyce, Cecil Hasselbring, Walter Geyer and James Hurt-we have all survived the first year of high school Work and no longer have the feeling of green freshiesf' Mr. Anderson, as class advisor, has made possible many enjoyable events which will be remembered in future years, and he has directed our work as a Whole very Well indeed. With this start We hope to continue next year, coming up to the stand- ards set by our predecessors, and, if possible, setting higher standards for our successors. W 'VIIXE1' W

SPECIAL COURSE 1928-29 On December 3, 1928, fourteen boys were enrolled in the Short Course consisting of Business Arithmetic, Business Spelling, Sociology, Penmanship and a short course in accounting. The course, lasting until March 4, 1929, was open to all boys of high school age in the community. The students of the Short Course were boys, in most cases, needed at home during regular farming seasons. The course tended well to aid the boys in arithmetic, writing, and spell- ing, while the new course introduced for the first time, being sociology, tended to aid them in views of our Society in general. It is expected that four of the boys will start the regular high school course next year. The Short Course has been offered three different years, 1925-26, 1926-27, and 1928-29. In the year 1927-28 there was no class because there were insufficient students. It is felt that at least twelve students must be enrolled to make a course profitable. The board of education intends to continue offering the course as long as there are students enough to justify it. We hope that those who read these pages and have not finished their high school course will see fit to register with us next year. l27l 9 V115
