SENIOR CLASS HISTORY S|c) Vi Yd Yd Yd V V YJ Yd Yd WHEN? A bright and sunny morning in September in the year of our Lord, Nineteen hundred and twenty-one. Where? On the hard clay grounds of the Coquille High School. What? A slight chastisement of an ignorant-looking group of young people, who had for their chastisers and audience, another group of pupils who did not look a bit less ignorant. Why? The members of the class of ’25 were getting their first christening into Coquille Hi. (I say first because these christenings occurred at intervals for about a year.) It was not until the other classes found out our worth that they ceased to annoy us. Our class, which entered in Nineteen hundred and twenty-one, was the largest up to that time, since it consisted of fifty-four members. N V y Yd Four years have passed—years that we would not sell for love nor money, because of what they have meant to us. In this time we have grown from the green and ignorant bunch of freshmen to the dignified seniors of today. Yd Yd Yd Yd Yd Yd Yd Yd Yd Yd Yd Yd YJ Yd Yd Vi Yd Yd We have struggled onward and upward along that rough and rugged road to knowledge. For some of our number, this road proved too rough to follow and consequently without a sufficient effort, they failed. Then too, there are those who strayed away to the other places, and are now probably awaiting, as we are awaiting, to step out into the world of hard knocks. Those of us that are left, however, who have made the grade, after four short and successful years of high school, now wait upon tne threshold of the future. We might ask ourselves this question. Have we played our part in activities. This would be the answer. We have. It is useless to name our stars in basket ball, football, or in any other athletics; they are too many. Our class has contributed its share to all the activities. We know that our adversaries in other schools of Coos County will be glad to see the class of ’25 pass on, and that they will breathe a sigh of relief, when they know that our stars will no longer be there to deprive them of their honors. In dramatics, music, debating, oratory, we have always aimed to do our best. When ever we had the opportunity to please the public we did our best. Tomorrow is coming. Each one will do his utmost towards filling his place in the world, and we feel certain that this class, which has conducted itself so brilliantly and successfully here in good old Coquille Hi, will find a place of honor and respect in the future; that each one as the years roll by will look back with fond memories to days of joy and gladness ai Coquille Hi.
