One morn a whispered word went 'round the school That Future, to men's eyes her ample page Rich with the spoils of time did now unroll, A man there was who destiny could gauge. The class of naghty eight their lot obscure, Did wish this naughty re'rend Old to now relate The manly boys, also the maids demure, Did curiously of him inquire their fate. A man of years he was, but soul sincere, He laid his hands on each and then he spoke, Now smiled, now frowned, and then l1e'd drop a teal 'Twas gladness or 'twas sorrow he awoke. . it W ' w' ,.1?7.'l 1 A 3 1 lf Y E.7faf'?6'1 And thee, who mindful of neglected sick 'L 1 Will ope the gates of mercy to mankind, , 5 W ,N E.

1 opened and in came the principal accompanied by a gentleman. Although we had never seen him before, we instinctively knew that We were in Dr. Thomas' presence. Our knowledge had never seemed so insignificant as then. Tremblingly we answered the kindly put questions until our nerve return- ed. It is with pleasure that we recall that not a single member of Naughty Eight failed on that day. After the last recitation we thankfully assembled in the study hall to listen to Dr. Thomas' address and it was most welcome news to hear that, altho he would have to visit us again the coming year, yet our graduates might enter California without examinations. - As our own graduation was but a year off we organized the class, electing Miss Mildred Ring, president, Miss Myrtle Simpson, vice-president, Miss Emily E. Koehan, secretary and Mr. Kenenth Bugbee, treasurer. We then established a precedent that each Junior class should give the Senior class a reception and ball at their graduation, we setting the example. A most enjoyable evening was spent iirst at the reception in the Knights' parlors, and afterwards at the dance in Roberts' Hall. Feeling the dignity of their position the nine sober Seniors of Naughty Eight made out their schedules, realizing that this was the last time they should do so in High School. The last vacation had gone and now they were reunited for their iinal High School term.. This time it was under Mr. Moore as principal and the Misses Smith and Falk. Work was taken up in earnest. Physics, Trig. and U. S. History and Government were found to be heavy subjects and demanded much time and atten- tion. ' The school decided to publish its Hrst annual and entrusted the same to the Senior class agreeing that to each succeeding Senior class should be given that honor. The class of Naughty Eight held numerous class meetings throughout the year and selected its colors green and gold, the class Hower, the single daffodil and the class motto, Make Good. The selection of the class pin was carefully made and the pins procured in time for graduation. V Naughty Eight elected Mr. K. W. Robarts, editor-in-chief of the annual. He appointed his staff as follows: Literary Editor, Miss Emily E. Keohan, Art Editor, Miss Mildred Ring, Athletic Editor, Mr. H. Bonnicksen, Joshes, Mr. Horace Winslow, Business Manager, Mr. J. N. Fulmor. Q In looking over the records of Naughty Eight the historian iinds that the class has furnished two members for the basket ball team, four for the track, baseball and football teams, four for the tennis, the one debater which the school was permitted in the League and two for the Operetta-all this in one term. From a small class such a record is praiseworthy. May the members of Naughty Eight always show themselves as ready to enter as heartily in all their undertakings in life as they have done in the Ferndale Union High School!-Emily E. Keohan, '08.
