Page 26 THE REFLECTOR 1921 Sophomore year. About the last month of school the class bought a hundred dollar Libert} bond, the class of ’21 being the first and only class in the High School to take this step,. After a much needed vacation we returned as Juniors to Farrell High School. The class of ’21 featured in nothing else except hard work this year. Very few social functions were held this term due to the fact that our class was preparing for the annual Junior-Senior banquet which was an elaborate success. Then, too, our Junior play, to say the least was a decided success. Our 1 mior year ended by bidding the Seniors good-bye and taking upon ourselves the responsibility of Seniorship in the High School. At last we entered the High School as Seniors, 0 what a relief! After three years of hard study we were about to gain the height of our High School education, but this meant more hard work ami study for our class. In our Senior year, we have had many new teachers but we soon became acquainted and we got along with our teachers just as usual. Our Senioi year has been one of concentration, hard work and many business meetings. The class of ’21 has some very good oratorical and dramatic talent and the members of the class have shown their talent in numerous “plays” and debates throughout their High School career. More ardent supporters of High School athletics cannot be found than the members of the class of ’21. The class of '21 has the distinct honor of being the only classi in High School during the three periods the basket ball team has won the County Championship and it also carries with it the honor of graduating in the year the Farrell High School basket ball team has won the permanent possession of the cup for the Mercer Co. Basket-ball Championship. The members of the class of ’21 have carried with them from the Freshman year their patriotic sentiment. The girla! in the class of ’21 have also shown their desire to ecomomize by limiting the price of their graduation dress to $25.00. The class of 21 has been a hard working class and a class that has kepi i p with , the times; although many of our classmates have left us year by year as we rose thru the educational ranks of the High School. Our graduating class numbers thirty-four (34) yet the losing of oui classmates did at times make us lonely. But now the class of '21 has just about finished its lour years of joyous High School life and it goes iorth into the wide world to bring honors to itself and the High School. We owe our success and our future success to our ever encouraging faculty. Farewell Farrell High, Farewell Teachers and our dear Alma Mater. “The bird of time has but little way lo flutter and the bird is on the wing.”------Fitzgerald. Sam C. '21
