CLASS I-IISTORY September 2, 1919, eighteen timid Freshmen entered the Academy building to prepare for climbing the ladder of success. Like all Fresh- men, we were at first green. The Seniors claimed they took us for grass, but they were mistaken and soon changed their minds. We grad- ually fitted into place and studied our lessons which were, English, Latin, Mathematics and Agriculture or Domestic Science. One evening after school we all ascended the steps to our much beloved English room Ca place where we have sojourned so often in the past four years to witness many wierd scenesj to hold our first class meeting. Our class was organized with Charlotte Rosensteel, President, Sara Long, Vice President, Anna Strawn, Secretary and Treasurer, Helen Warner, His- torian, and Paul Coulter, Poet. We selected blue and gold as our class colors. We studied very hard, obeyed our teachers and never, never sassed until at last the finals came and we nearly all passed. Having accomplished what we did, we were glad to enter into the joys and pleasures of vacation.

We entered the sports as well as our lessons, with all our hearts. Two of our girls made first team in basketball fpretty good wasn't it?J. The days sped swiftly on, soon the term came to an end, and we again passed exams and thereby proved as the expression is What we lacked in quantity we made up for in quality. August 29, IQZI, once again the Academy with its ivy clinging walls was greeted with our merry laughter. We no more were Sophomores, but jolly, jolly Juniors, with our aims set higher than ever before. We realized that we had climbed a few steps of Life's ladder since we en- tered as Freshmen, and were just a little nearer the heights and still climbing. We began to realize more fully that those days were merely stepping stones to the monument that we hope some day to erect as a
