Sophomores Isn't that some sophisticated sound? No, not sophisticated. that's not the right word. Then let me say there is something high-sounding in the magical word of Sophomore . Of course there is. I myself, clearly remember the remarkable senw sation I felt When referred to as a Sophomore . Didn't I feel 'ibig though? See! Didn't I tell you so , is just ring- ing in my ears. Someone is saying: HIsn't she the most ego- tistical piece you ever came across? That will never do. So I must start on the assigned subject Every Freshman looks forward, oh, so eagerly, to her Sophomore Year, the time when she will no longer be looked upon as ignorant. Nevertheless, they do not receive as much attention as the Freshmen. They are merely insignifmant Sophs; still they can and do exert their superiority over the Freshmen. There are at Elder two Sophomore classes of girls. These classes struggle With geometry. Spanish or Caesar; they become acquainted with Shakespeare, Gray, Milton, and other famous authors; history holds no terrors for them; and they tackle biology with vim; perhaps some have mastered the difficult art of stenography, and as for bookkeeping, why they could keep : books for a king. Who says the Sophs have a snap? E The Sophomore girls turn out in full regalia at all the ath- mmmmmm munummm'nm u mum letic contests. The A Division even traveled to Milford to attend a football game. They surely have school spititl Do the Sophs miss any dances or receptions? Just try to tell any one of them that they do. It would be beyond their E comprehension Here is at fitting opportunity to say Farewell to those students who have completed the Commercial Course and who will not enter the portals of Elder next semester. So. Sophomores, keep at it. Make your class one hundred per cent in studies, in athletics, and in social affairs. It sounds difficult. but try it anyway. Oh. I almost forgot to say that the Sophomores possess the gift of indefatigable humor, which . helps them over the tough road of a high school career. I am E sure that this class will measure up to all that Seniors are ex- E j pected to be. MARGARET NABERHAUSl Twentyenine

unnmummumaummwunuuumum anlmnmrjg HIHHuuLHHVHHHH H l .. lnllH u Hmmmmmn m - mmmm u .u The Juniors Said one advertising man of the Juniors of Elder High School: They Satisfy . Said another: Ild walk a mile for any of them . For With their school girl complexions and skin you love to touch , they are indeed a charming class. They need not envy the charm of others . Theres a reason . they are per- fect pupils. It is rumored that their President, Miss Brunsman. at- tributes her matchless cream and white complexion to Pond's Cold Cream. Another one of the 57 varieties is Miss Broer- man. Who says: llI will show you how to make from $250.00 to $500.00 a month Writing essays . Among their characteristics they have that sensible habit . They are prudent also for at the first sign of rain they put on their chains . Their Willingness to work is well known as they always say: UEventually, why not now? They always heed llTheir Master's Voice and work With 'lMight and Main in classes for they know that llIt's best in the long run to study and in later life they Will say: Mother, I have just received a fifty dollar raise and I owe it all to dear Old Elder . The Juniors' table at lunch time is always a scene of much excitement and of course After every meal, Wrigley's . But Mum is the word concerning their appetites. They tell us that HRecess Peas, Please , and like ';Children, cry for them HAt every meal . When they start to canvass, for instance for their Prom, they are untiring. HThat's the insidious thing about them and not Four out of every live escapes them. HWhat a whale of a difference just a few cents makes and believe me they sure can Count the cents . But then their spirit and pride in Elder is HIOOWO pure and They'll accept no substitutes still Beware of the Danger Line . Perhaps When they become seniors they Will become haughty and proud as all seniors do. Yet when Ask- ing the man Who owns one we are assured they Would uphold the honor of Elder to ilThe exclusion of all else . For they are not adept in everything; Miss Callahan can tell us What Robinson Crusoe needs . Miss Donnegan Wrote USears, Roe- buck, The Thrift Book of a Nation while Miss Hummel llCuts her work in two with Chipso . In fact they are HRough on Rats for like Bull Durham They roll their own . Their own Class poet sayscae ' UIfs Campbellls fine that makes us shine, And do our stunts so neat. The soup within just makes us spin And sparkle on our feet. um um .40; Wiblelnwumuummmnmnmmmml llllllllllllllllllll mm: x hxi , y - thrtg-one
