 C. L. H. S. ECHO .........iiiiiiiii........................... JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY. The dignity of juniorhood brings with it the difficult task of producing a class history which will reveal us as one of the greatest classes that will leave the theoretical paths of school for the practical highways of life, or for some higher institution of learning. To understand why there is so little history connected with the class of 1917, one must be told that we con sist of odd specimens of humankind We represent different nationalities. Each member aims to be a leader in something. One would reform the world, another would be a professor in history, a third be a leader of some political party and a fourth a teacher of music. Thus to do justice to the class it would be necessarv to write four individual histories instead of a general one. Should the historian write these ever so briefly the annual of this year could never realize enough monev to pay for its printing, in every stage of our progress we have been an ambitious and dutiful class. In attendance at recitations we have been punctual, nor have we been wanting in attention to our brothers and sisters of the other classes. May the rest of our school days be a blessing to us and to those whom our school life may influence. OSCAR CLARK. Junior Class Roll.

 C, I,. H. S. ECHO i!llllll!llllllllllllllllllllI]lllllllllll|lll®IIIIIIIIIIM € | SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY. Among the days long to be remembered by our class, August 31, 1914,- is the important one. From the East, West, North and South we came. Restless little bodies looking for work, and with a clash we met at the Clear I ake High School. There we decided to stay and become friends and classmates. The first event of importance was the class meeting called for the purpose of electing class officers and choosing class colors. Oh! how nobly we fought the combined efforts of the jealous Sophomores and Juniors. But through thick and thin we kept our colors, the dear old Maroon and Gold. We were the largest class in the High School, and we proved that we not only had the quantity but quality as well. Talk about a class party! Well, maybe we did not have one! We were called “Fresh and Green,” but. Hm, what did we care? We were a happy-go-lucky bunch. What fun we had, seemingly always into mischief. After a seemingly endless vacation we met again, not twenty-two strong, however, as we had been, nor were we quite so shy but with the same old spirit. How we pointed our fingers at the newcomers, calling them “Green Freshies. And now that our High School days are half over we are all going to try very hard to make the remainder of them even brighter and better than those gone by. O. B. JOSEPH FELI.AND—“He is a quiet Youth.” EDITH JOHNSON—“Always looking for the thing to do and doing it.” ALFRED KIRK BRIDE— Recreation is my work.” LLOYD LARSON—“All are not so wise as he.” BENEDICT LIEN—“He hath a lean and hungry look.” ESTELIA MARQUARDT— Goodness is beauty in its best estate.” MARTIN REED—“ft is becoming to a young man to be modest.” NORMAN REED—“A sincere lad, we wish him well.” WELLAND SUTTEN — “My tender youth was never attaint With any passion of inflaming love.” REUBEN WALLEN — There is no place like home.” CLASS OFFICERS. Benedict Lien .............President Lloyd Larson..........Vice President Olga Boeris......Secretary-Treasurer Sophomore Class Roll. OLGA BOERIS—“Surpassed by few in powers of mind.” CLINT BOOTH—“When a lady is in the case Let other things give place.” WILEY DAVIS—“None but himself can be his parallel.” AGNES FELLAND — “Would there were more like her.” GIG GLUTS. Mr. G. (teasing Clint): I think you need a chaperon.” Clint: “There it goes again. I’m always getting it. Here is Louise giving me a calling down, too. (We wonder why.) m Freshman Girl: “The meridians run north and south of the equator.” Teacher: “How fast do they run?” The Freshmen are glad to learn that sulphur is not needed to make all kinds of “matches.” 1IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIM
