H. S., We acted as do all new recruits--green. Of course, We had adequate reason to do so-We had so much Green in our ranks. Most of us remained insig- nificant privates this iirst year. In our second year of service we automatically became corporals and some of the brighter ones lieutenants. And how We ordered the poor private about! We began to go out into branches, and the upper classmen recognized our exist- ence. As a Whole class we made an excellent record, and therefore received com- plimentary remarks from the training Officers.

Our third year marked a great change in our rank and a rise in our prestige. We were instantly recognized for our offensive warfare. This first manifested itself in the Siege of the Carnival, which we captured by a decisive victory and set our queen and king, Elise and Rogers, on the throne. Erom this en- counter to the end of the 1924-25 campaign we were in friendly warfare with our rivals, the Seniors, Even our opponents recognized our ability and gave us good positions. The correspondent division was inaugurated under the leadership of one of our company, Paget, with two of our classmates as lieutenants, Elizabeth S. and Joe Key. In the popularity contest one of our number, June, was chosen as prettiest girl. Among the literary events, the red ribbon was Won for poetic honors by a Junior, Madeline, and the County Essay medal by Elizabeth S. Written on the camp's Hall of Eame many of our classmates' names can be found, in fact, they are too numerous to men- tion. In the Battle of Elags the Juniors claim a decisive victory. The mem- bers of the Athletic Squad, for the rnost part, wore Junior uniforms. This year, the class of superior officers, captain, majors, and generals, have a clear field, for graduation eliminated last year's enemy, The Siege of the Carnival was again Won by our class, with Myrtle Flora and Elliott as leaders. In the Favorite Race four of our division achieved mention-Best Looking Boy, Layton: Most Beautiful Girl, Eleanorg Most Popular Ciirl, Elise: Best All-Round Ciirl, Constance, and Best All-Round Boy, Roy. In the Athletic field, our troop has proved itself one of heroes. No fray has been too severe for our boys. With this class go out most of the out- standing fighters in football, basketball, and baseball divisions, not to men- tion tennis, track, and golf. Cne of the divisions which has attained a rank is the Blue and Gold. Its staff members are for the most part Seniors. This paper has done much to reflect the camp life of C. H, S, This company is also noted for its good scholastic record, By strict attention to the prob- lems before us, the majority has successfully conquered the Lessons, and quite a few have been so brave as to merit the medal UA Average. In the great camp bulletin, The Corsican, Will be found the personnel of this company under A'I,a Reveillen or Hroll call , the activities under i'La Revue or RevieW : and the rating of each under A'La Reporte or i'Report . It is to be hoped that the graduating cadets will conduct themselves in the same brave, intelligent, never-say-die spirit on the Battlefield of Life as they have done in the Training Camp, Corsicana High School!
