The good feeling and united action of the class appeared when we unanimously chose as our class sponsor. Mr. .1. o. Watson, on March J5. 1914. and again when we gave an April Fool reception in his honor. I Miring the evening we lunl the pleasure of listening to a speech from our sponsor, which Mr. Rosier «lid was the longest s| eeeli a Watson was ever known to make. We were also given a sample of the musical talent of our « lass. Not only does our « lass show talent in music hut it has an important part in all the activities of the school. We had a basket hall team of considerable ability and also re| iescntalives on the school basket ball team as well as star players in base hall. Our girls are active in Y. W. C. A. work atul Camp Fire. When the « lasses were represented in a chapel program, our representative compared very favotably with the other people on the program.

We have been tohl that this is a “hard job,” but we will ; love that when we attempt anvthing. w« can finish it. M. C. II.. itl. ma
