CLASS OF 1916. THE Sophomore Class is greatly respected by every one, and no wonder. We are no longer “flats, and, therefore, demand great attention from all. The most predominant characteristic of our class is its abundance of knowledge concerning the subjects, mathematics and book-keeping. However, as Sophomores are in the habit of sitting up until eleven or twelve o’clock every night, preparing lessons for the ensuing day, and as we do not believe in parties, dances, or social events of any kind, it stands to reason that we should know a little more than the average Junior, or even the Senior. Another characteristic of the Sophomores, which should be strongly brought out, is our great love for the “Flats. This is fully demonstrated by the many little kindnesses which we do for them daily. (We also take great pains in teaching them to show appreciation of our kind deeds.) The Sophomores show a good example to both the higher and the lower classes by excellent behavior during rhetoricals. As wras said before, we are very fond of study of any kind, therefore, during the rhetorical period, some pupils may be seen sitting with their eyes and ears wide open, taking in everything that is being addressed to them, while others are so industrious that it is impossible for them to stop studying long enough even to listen to the speaker. When teachers come to our home room, they are surprised beyond measure to find every one studying diligently, none gossiping. Can this be said of other classes? Even our teachers are congratulated for directing such a well-bred class. A great future is in store for the Sophomores in all Commerce subjects, but especially in the lines of art and athletics. Already the great skill with which these subjects are handled creates surprise. As we are the first class to be so proficient in everything we undertake, we deem it best that we, ourselves, attend to initiating lower classes into the methods of work which we so successfully pursue. We hope, when their time comes to be classed as Sophomores, that they will have made a record and that their teachers may say about them, as they have about us, “Are not the Sophomores wonderful?
