W' MEN 2 VM comm' 80v3!J! SOPI-IOMORE CLASS HISTORY S Freshies we, the grand Sopho- more class of 1917 commenced our high school life in 1915. VVe were not treated with as much respect as were the more experienced high school students. There were twenty students in our class, ten boys and ten girls. In a few days we were organized and arranged, and we soon grew accustomed to high school life. We studied algebra under Mr. Few- ell, Miss Sutton was our German teach- er, Miss Michael our English and Do- mestic Science and Mr. Eilar the ag- riculture teacher. We prospered splendidly and our standard was about the highest through out our Freshman year. Hut, alas, our large class was not long to keep its size for only a few weeks after school opened, Edythe Nixon left our ranks. We then held the remaining nine- teen until several othe1's, one at a time dropped out to take up some new occu- pation. VVhen we started in as Sophomores only thirteen of our original number and Elsie Rhoton a new member were there to take up the work. Thus we sta1'ted our Sophomore year with four- teen. A few months later Frank Hol- singer left to take up life on a farm and soon Frances Ball moved to Mun- cie. Then in a few weeks Ernest Dil- lon joined our number. VVe not only hope to finish our Sophomore year, but to complete our high school work without any more leaving our class.
