Y .' . .:, --I Class History It seems a long time ago that we iirst entered High School, for the boys wore knee trousers and the girls were in sho1't dresses, yes, even shorter than they are now. Peo- ple gazed in wonder at the fifteen beautiful young ladies and the eighteen bold and dash- ing young men, as they started in quest of the Fountain of Perfect Understanding. We entered into a new world and found our surroundings most novel and interesting. The first thing that seemed strange was having a different teacher for each subject and going from room to room for recitations. This was not nearly so bad as the strange and ferocious conduct of the Sophomores, who pounced upon the boys, seemingly to destroy them, but for the girls they had only the sweetest of smiles and sweets. In athletics most of our members were content to sit and watch, but there were some adventurous souls who did, by their efforts, gain much glory and hard bumps in baseball and basketball. And one tried delighting his soul with music in the orchestra. We were all very brave that first year and did bear ourselves proudly thru the tumult. At the beginning of the Sophomore year our class had decreased somewhat in num- ber, but there was a similar increase in spirit, for we did assault the Freshmen, even as we were assaulted.. We entered more into the school activities, too. Four of 'our number went out for basketball and two for baseball, while our president contributed his valuable services to the debate team. Our musical member still remained in the or- chestra, but did not remain still. Some of our number reaped much glory in play acting and in our Junior year, the Athletic Association did present to the people a great play called Miss Cherry Blossom. The multitude cried out in their hearts, Heaven for- give them for they know not what they do, but aloud they said, it is wonderful, beyond all description. At that the heads of the class became swelled to a great size and they prepared to murder other great plays. So the same year we put on Wives to Burn, which was likewise a great sucess. Many of our class did partake of sports this year. Four of our number were on the baseball team, while five boys and three girls helped the basketball squads gain much fame. We were well represented in declamation by Daisy Fullerton and on the de- bate team by Earl Metz. The orchestra was increased in value by the presence of War- ren Knepp and Leon Guthrie. Never did we feel prouder than the day we entered school as Seniors. How differ- ent everything seemed from that of three years before. We now had a feeling of responsibility and a desire to'work exceedingly hard, which, unfortunately, did not last long. Our boys and girls took part in the basketball games and came off with many victories and bruises and loss of cuticle. Three of the class won much glory for themselves and the debating team, while our two musical souls remained in the orchestra. This year we put on the play, When Jane Takes a Hand, with fine success, and with the co-operation of the school, we have produced this year a school book, called The Year Book of 1925. As the years went by our number kept decreasing until the final list of those who are to receive the honors of Graduation is only sixteen, and in spite of mistakes and in' descretions, we have successfully completed the course. Our aims, our inspirations have been in a manner reached, but as we start a new year we shall still strive for that perfection we hope to attain in the fullness of time.

Then it stop- ped dead. It was right in the thick of the traflic in one of the largest cities and on one of the busiest streets. A traffic cop came bustling toward me, shouting and cusslng as I had never heard anyone before. I was thinking fast and was getting ready to tell him all about a sick grandmother or something-I didn't know just what, when to my sur- 1151
