Class of '24 Music ................ Orchestra L. M. ’24 -----4 — Eighth Grade Commencement On Wednesday evening, .May 21, the graduating class of the Eighth Grade staged a very en- tertaining commencement pro- gram. The main feature of the pro- gram was a farcical comedy en- titled “A Bunch of Fun.” The plot of the play centered around the “bunch,” which was com- posed of a grouD of Alice Hunt- ley’s friends, Alic° being a pop- ular college girl. Mr. and Mrs. Grardon prepared to entertain the “bunch” when they arrived unexpectedly. They were all in for a good time at which they all choose partners. The play was well presented, each one in the cast taking his or her part es- pecially well. The orchestra played between the acts of the play. The play was followed by the class prophecy given by the en- tire class. Supt. Peterson then gave a verv interesting talk on the value of education. The last number on the program was a song by the entire class, “Wel- come Sweet Soring.” The pro- gram as a whole was well pre- sented and much appreciated. The members of the Eighth Grade graduating class are: Thelma Anderson. Ruth Baird, Louise Clapper, Margaret Dew- ing, Alice Johnson. Katherine Kemmer, Anna Mace, A,nna Meade, Tessie Micken, Edith Potter, Lulia Lenoir, James Barnard. William Britton, John Connolly, Archie Corrigeiux. Ar- mond Freed. Harold Hieland, Eugene Hull, Francis Jones, Forrest Kindle. Earl Peterson, John Stahl, Stanley Strohl, Lewis Warde, and Edward Bach. This is the largest class that has evev graduated from the Eighth Grade in the history of the Cut Bank public schools. It is a class to be proud of. H. J. P. ’24 + Simple Equations (They need no proof for solving) Ralph is to Isabel as glue is to a postage stamp. Chewing gum is to Mr. Griese as lipsticks are to a girl. Food is to Lester as steam is to a locomotive. Wasting time is to Mr. Peter- son as intelligence is to the Freshmen. The Seniors are to the High School as an eraser is a pencil.

A. H. ’24 -----------m----------- OUR HIGH SCHOOL Our High School is more wonderful than any in the land, The students are all perfect and easily kept in hand; We have a corps of teachers whose judgment we cannot doubt, And when a tyrant misbehaves he’s sure to be kicked out. Peace and quiet reign supreme in every hall and room, During the hours of study all is silent as a tomb; The great offense of tardiness has now been long extinct, All crime is now abolished by our superior instinct. It never enters our minds to waste the shortest moment; We love to plug along with energy most diligent; Each month the whole enrollment is placed on the honor roll, The principles of scholarship are deep within our soul. At parties we conduct ourselves with perfect dignity, We gaze on noise and boisterousness with all hostility; The girls are fair and beautiful as you could wish to see. The boys are clever and handsome as any boys could be. But now, dear reader, we must say that all this junk is bunk, For every time there is a test two-thirds of us do flunk. The faculty can’t seem to see the virtues which we boast; We have to study hardest when we want to loaf the most. L. P. M. D., ’24

The banquet was given in the Home Economics Hall, which was artistically decorated in the High School colors, purple and gold, and the sweet pea, the Sen- ior class flower. The same color scheme was carried out in the table decorations and in the dainty place cards, menus and favors. Toasts were interspersed throughout the evening, forming pleasant interruptions between the courses of the banquet. Ralph Micken acted as toast- master and gave the address of welcome. Paul Hershey’s talk on “What Have I Gained From My Four Years at High School” contained some wrell worth-while thoughts. Alma Heath in telling “What We Hone to Have Left to the Lower Classmen” added a humorous note as well as bring- ing out some serious meaning. Other toasts were: Miss Miesen, “What I Think of My Seniors”; Mr. Peterson, “Senior Intelli- gence” ; Mr. Griese, “An Opinion of the Seniors and Juniors”; Mr. Frank Seal. “What the School Board Thinks of Our High School”; and a farewell toast by Mr. Bakeman. The fac- ulty members in their talks ex- pressed appreciation of the work done in the school by the Sen- iors and the members of the other classes, especially com- mening the way the students have cooperated with the facul- ty. Mr. Seal and Mr. Bakeman gave interesting and instruct- ive talks, their words displaying the interest both men have tak- en in the work of our school. The four-course dinner was very delicious and was much en- ioyed by all. It was served by the Freshmen girls and prepared by the mothers of the Juniors. A pleasant and wholesome spirit was felt throughout the evening, testifying to the suc- cess of the banquet. Those pres- ent were the Seniors, the Jun- iors, the members of the High School faculty, and the members of the School Board and their wives. The members of the class of 1924 wish to take this opportu- nity to thank the Juniors for the good time afforded them. P. E. H. ’24 ----4 Junior-Senior Prom The Junior-Senior Prom was given Friday, May 16th, in the High School Auditorium. Those present were the High School students, the High School Fac- ulty, the Alumni, the School Board and their wives, and a few others who at one time had at- tended the Cut Bank School. The Auditorium was decora- ted in a very artistic manner in the High School colors, purple and gold. The music was furnished by the Davis Orchestra and was ap- preciated very much. A good time was had by all and we, the Seniors, especially enjoyed the Prom and wish to thank the Juniors for showing us such a good time. q »24 -------4»----- Mrs. Shannon—You had the same topic to report as Lester, didnt’ you, Harold?
