HISTORY With one hundred and seventeen strong hikers looking forward to a long and pleasant journey, there started from the mountainous land of 1931, the earnest seekers of the rich treasure of Education. Our main thought on this trip was to reach the Land of Graduation. We could spy it from where we stood on the high mountain peak in our own land. All of us expected a smooth, gliding way to this destination, but instead we found it harder than supposed. The roads were rough, stony, and very hard to cross, but we were determined and kept on. We must remember that not all stayed with us during this long hike because several felt it undesirable. Many saw the tiresome trail ahead, and the reason being for others, heart-condition or matrimony. As we went through this Land of 1931, many citizens watching us go by merely laughed and called us “grecnies.” Wei', all we could do was to try. One citizen told us we must journey through the next Land of 1932 in traveling. What a hardship that would be! When we got to the foot of the immense mountain, we were met face to face with the Land of 1932. What a future it held for us, for we were no longer “grecnies,” but “Sophs.” Here, in the Land of 1932, the world’s transportation was much more advanced and we decided to go a part of the way on stage-coach. Of course we needed several of them, for what a large crew we really were! It was now necessary to select officers for these coaches and this was accomplished by electing four presidents, two from each home room. They were William Wright. John Bracken, James Rorabaugh, and Garnet Shaffer. It must be still remembered that we had older advisors, called teachers. For these teachers, we can always be thankful because they helped us along the hardest sections of this monotonous path- way. At this point of the distance, we disbanded for the short period of three months, in order to become more effie’ent in the following years. Eighty-seven students banded together this year as Juniors.” What a glory it was to have gone on our course for two years already and still making more ad- vancement. In this Land of 1933, we were traveling in a more modern style, trans- portation by train. The heads of our railway cars this term were Robert Ford and Charles Moore. This lap of our journey meant several things. First rings were to be received by us in this term, and secondly, during this time we were to celebrate our first reception. As it was impossible for all of us to purchase rings, only a few in the crowd wore them. The standard Fcrndale ring was retained. Towards the end of the year, we held a reception in a beautiful, yet simple manner. Everyone attending this fete, was very much pleased and enjoyed it immensely. The law-enforcing body for this class was comprised of five members, William Spotz. Olivia Horner, Rayford Feather, Ruth Hindman, Vera Schrock, and Melvin Rhodes. Everything had been successful for us, and we approached our last school days together.
