There are twenty-one girls and fourteen boys with Miss Peachey for homeroom teacher. Our days are full of studies and different activities. Our subjects are Civics, General Business, Science, English, Bible, Algebra, Shop, and Home Economics. We had a choice between General Business and Algebra or Science. Some students decided to take two electives, while a few ambitious ones took all three. This year the singers in our class were in either the Mixed Chorus or Girls' Chorus or in both. We enjoyed singing at various programs both in our school and in different churches of our district. In Science Class we went star gazing, and our ride to LeRoys was the beginning of a happy evening. The Snappy Shutters, where we learned much about photography, the taking, developing, and tinting of pictures, was a lot of help to camera fans and was enjoyed by all who attended the meetings. We thank Wfarren Wenger for his guidance in this club. This year we have learned new things and reviewed old things and we have increased our knowledge greatly. Class President, jon Clemens 28

But we also lost three that were with us last year. This year we have Five teachers instead of one. Going from one classroom to another gives us exercise, Miss Bergey is our home room teacher. We enjoy our shop period, which is a new subject. The girls have Home Economics. We also enjoy our Physical Education periods better since we have our new Gymnasium. In our history class we studied about France and made different projects: homes, castles and manors and other interesting things. We are now looking forward to eighth grade.
