Senior Class History It was on the first day of September, 1922, that we, the Class of ’26, filed through the study hall door as freshmen. Through the kindness of the faculty and some of the older students we soon got our subjects straight, and learned that Algebra was something to he studied and not a wild animal just escaped from the jungles of Africa. The other students soon learned that we cared not for their disdainful stares and let us go our way. And thus the agony of being a Freshman was soon over. On entering High School for our second year, we, the “Sophomores,” fell our importance. We had made a good record the first year, and we intended to keep our “Rep.” Margaret Prine was our president, and ours (at least in our own opinion! was the banner class of the year. “Hail,” for our Junior year had come and with all our joys came our much dreaded Geometry, hut Mrs. Peeples managed to pull us through in some way or other. It was during this year that we were so highly entertained by the Freshmen at the home of Aldine Fort. After considerable work our play “The Deacon” was put on and over the top it went. Then as it was near parting time for the class of ’25, we gave them a banquet which (if those present told the truth! was en- joyed by all. At last the impossible has happened, and we are Seniors. We have chosen Myron Varn as president and started out to make this, our last, the best year of all. One of the first things we put on was “Kid” day and quite a spectacular scene we made with our dolls and all day suckers. Nowr we are sporting handsome rings and proudly too because they signify twelve years of hard labor. Now since our carnival is over and a nice sum of money put to our credit in the hank, we are looking forward to putting on our play, “Nothing But the Best.” And then we shall he saddened by the thoughts of parting from all our friends and classmates, hut although we scatter to the utmost parts of the world we shall never forget the wonderful days at Fort Meade High School.
