1922 (the lirtlrdor Page 23 Ijiatury of 22 Turn back, turn back, Oh, Time in thy flight, And make me a child, just for tonight. When we look back to the fall of '18 it seems as if we were but children, although then we thought we were quite grown up. Early in the year the commercial members of the class gave a party for the classical students. The honor we soon returned. The last party of the year was the one we gave in honor of our basketball team. We closed our social career for ’18 with a picnic for the Sophomores at Buhl Park. Our Sophomore year was rather uneventful. We were beginning to realize that we didn’t know all we thought we did when Freshmen and with the realization came harder work. The first social event that we participated in was a farewell party for Mr. Downs. Our Sophomore year brought out the dramatic ability of ’22, when Sophomores took the leading parts in “Aaron Boggs,” and “Mr. Bob”. The last play, out of a cast of seven characters, all but three were Soph-mores. The second social event of our Sophomore year took place on the fifteenth of April. A Sophomore “bawl” was held in the Hi School Gym. A series of mock dances were the interesting events of the evening. Our Sophomore year closed with the usual Sophomore-Freshmen picnic. After a much needed vacation we returned to school in the fall of ’20 to the elevated position of Juniors. We started our Junior year with a Hallowe’en Party in the Gym. Everyone helped to make it a success. Many members of the faculty were present. This year we organized our class with Milton Klein as president. The other class officers were John Hetra, Vice President; James Willard, Treasurer, and Nelle Stillstrom as Secretary. No time for parties now! All our efforts were bent toward making the Junior and Senior banquet a success. Our efforts were not in vain. In spite of all, our boys were not too busy to bring back the “CUP”. We were proud to know that the team that brought back the “CUP” consisted of Juniors with the exception of two members, Jack Laur-rell, a regular, and John Gatzy, a sub. Our Senior year has been one of hard work and concentration. Our first class meeting was held the fifth of October. Idris Morris was chosen from our list to lead us, James Willard as Vice President, Miss Eckles, Treasurer, and Mildred Phillips. Secretary. The first class party was held at Prof. McCullough’s farm. It took place in the form of a weiner and marshmallow roast. The enjoyable time made up for the lack of further parties. Now the class of forty members has almost completed its successful career. More ardent supporters of High School athletics cannot be found. Our athletic career has been very successful. Both the varsity teams, boys and girls, consisted entirely of seniors with the exception of one girl on the Girls’ Varsity. Now the class of ’22 has almost finished its High School career and it will soon go forth into the wide, wide world to follow out its motto, “Strive Upward.” M. P. ’22

Page 24 «.hr Slrtlrdur 1922 (Elaafi Prnphmj of 22 One afternoon as I was walking in the woods, I found a small sparrow with a broken wing. It looked so pitiful and forlorn that even my adamant heart was touched, and I resolved to take it home and care for it. In a week the wing had healed and I was ready to send the sparrow back into the woods again. Kissing it, I said: “Farewell, little sparrow, farewell.” But what was my surprise when I saw before me a maiden, wondrous fair. Her hair was long and golden; her dress fell in soft loose folds around her; on her arm was a basket, woven of sweet scented grasses and filled with luscious fruit. Then she spoke. “I am Pomono, goddess of fruit and youth. The wicked Loki though he could deprive the gods of life by enchanting me. It only needed a human kiss to set me free. I offer this mirror to you as a reward. You may have one wish and the mirror will show you what you most desire to see. I would give you some fruit but eternal youth is for the gods alone. I must hurry away or Aesir will die before I return.” Thus speaking, she vanished. But I was still holding a small mirror in my hand, thus proving to me that I had not been dreaming. I pondered as to what the wish should be and I thought, of all my desires, that so see my old friends of the class of ’22 would be the dearest wish I could make. Quickly I wished before the opportunity of a glimpse of the impossible might be snatched away from my grasp. Scarcely had I breathed my wish when a stately mansion loomed before me. The door opened and Mrs. Bullock, formerly Miss Ida Allen, came out and entered her limousine. Then that picture vanished and another took its place. This, the science department of Harvard University, where a lecture was being given by Professor Bobby, discoverer of perpetual motion. I looked again, Miss Evans, physics teacher, speaking with the President of a Girls’ Seminary in Tennessee, James Willard. Then at Wellesley, I recognized Carl Bissett, who was now a very, very successful coach of girls’ athletics. Carl has chosen for his assistant, Billy Moder. Both were held in high esteem by the girl devotees. Then another picture flashed across the mirror. This time it revealed a low. white, rambling bungalow, on a large ranch, and in the drivewray a Stutz Bear Cat was parked. On the porch the wealthy Joe Carroll was apparently waiting for some one. As this picture faded, I saw Mrs. Morris, formerly Goldia Hinkson. who professed herself a man-hater, had finally fallen to the charms of Idris, who is now a successful business man. A picture of an opera in which Belle Collins, pianist, was the big feature of the evening, then one of George Dvoryak, also a noted pianist, and Ella Rosenberg, leading a jazz orchestra, flashed before me. Then a foreign university, one in Berlin, in which David Gregory was finishing his course in voice culture. It was then proven to me that Sara Heizler was a famous violinist and
