Let the World slip, we will never be younger. l..,. Mid- Term Senior Class Ifstory pp---. T the beginning of the second term of school in the year 1911-12 there assembled from the various primary schools of Denton one of the most promising classes that has ever appeared at the D. H. S. There were about one hundred and fifty pupils in all and in their studies they were as versatile as they were numerous. This class entered the High School with the determination to make for themselves a record such as had never before been attained by a Freshman class. Although we were not accustomed to the routine of work prescribed by the faculty, we soon settled down to our studies with earliest a11d determined efforts and soon acquired fame, not only as students, but al- so as orators, athletes, and in other achievement of high school pupils. Our efforts were duly rewarded when at the Glld of the first month, to the joy of all the pupils, there was a large number of A's, a smaller number of B's, a few straggling t'C's, and as for t'D's, there were 11one. This was indeed a reputation considering the large number in the class, the realization of which caused us to renew our efforts with even more vim and vigor than be- fore. ' At the final 'tExamsH the class made a showing which did credit to themselves as well as the Faculty, and we -were admitted to the Freshman A. In September, 1912, most of our band of warriors was back with their never-tiring efforts to make our class the pride of the Faculty.. This term was not very eventful as we had now become full-fledged high school pupils and we were well started on our journey to the Sophomore class.
