NVhen the class of '97 entered the Freeport High School, it numbered in all, thirty-three, twenty-three girls and ten boys. Since then our num- ber has somewhat decreased, owing to sickness and cold weather, but chiefly to the fact that some are pur- suing their studies in the district schools during the winter term and will join ns in the spring. 'We follow the example of our pre- decessors by entering upon our work with great zeal, our favorite study seems to be Higher English, perhaps because it is the easiest. Latin we also find very interesting. Under the guidance of Mr. Morse, we are mak- ing good progress in Algebra. The Swedish system of gymnastics has recently been introduced inthe school, and it is a pleasant sight to see us in line with Heads backward bend. We have not been in the High School quite two terms, but We al- ready feel the responsibility of our position, and the upper classes recog- nize our growing abilities. When We have been here four years you may expect a more graceful bow from '97. L 0 CLA LS. Wake up, there, Georgie. It's not moss QMorsej we're after. It is worth while to take a look at that waste basket in the corner. Boys, what do you think of the girls' hall this term? Look out for the rope of evergreen, Cornie! They burned the altars by vote. Give him a clay pipe and a plug of T. D. tobacco, and let him smoke. The early Jews were rich in pack- pedlers. Miss L. Wfho was Dido? Pupil. She was a god.

Some of our class were obliged to leave us during the winter term. lVe hope to see them back again in their accustomed places next spring. .PIIIL OSOPIIIUA L APPARA TIES. The philosophical apparatus is somewhat deiicientg much ofthe ap- paratus has been broken or worn out, so that few ofthe implements remain unbroken. The force pump is broken g so is the lifting' pump. The electric machine is out of order and of course the Leyden jars and ap- paratns'tl1at are connected with it are useless. The air pump is in good condition, but we have no receiver, this renders the air pump almost useless. One of the induction coils is broken and the other will not work more than half of the time. The skeleton stands up as ghastly as ever, striking with terror the su- perstitious Freshmen. Mr. Morse has collected quite an assortment of chemicals and acids since he came and we also see that he has occasionally replenished the sup- ply of glassware. Herman F.

16 rm: or..-xmox. Miss L. Then who was Dido's brother ? Pupil. Juno Chewing gum is not quite so much of a passion with us as it was last year 5 and a certain young lady in the Sophomore class actually remarked the other day, O, my jaws are tired? Don't fail to keep your feet dry, A. O. Miss M. Did Athens rebuild her walls? ' Pupil. No, she built them over again. The two parts of a Latin condition- al sentence are the protases and apod- osis, says G. E. B. Miss M. In what metre is ' 'Evangeline written? Pupil. Simile and metaphor. What is it, Blanche, a mouse? A great many of our schoolmates have been aiiiicted with bad colds, and one of them s1u'prised us the oth- er clay with the rather startling an- nouncement that a certain Latin word was ablative of bans er or beans. Benedict Arnold was borned. Cicero said: I place in your care my little small boy. Who was Czesaris? lVIr. M. says H. D. is a bad little girl, and there are some larger than she who are almost as bad. Query: Anything personal meant? Climbing the belfry is a lost art. Weeping a tear, said Miss L. ' ' VVeepin0' atear. l' Let us U0 on with D . . D the translatmn, - ' weeping a tear.' A daily occrurence in the Virgil class - I haven't a very good trans- lation, and I would rather hear some one else read first. Miss M. Describe Longfellow's personal appearance. Senior. He had whiskers and a mustache. The sweetest, the prettiest, The smartest and wittiest, The noisiest, the stillest, The oddest and silliestg All may be found in the P. D. O. F. We have been pleased from time to time, to see the ever-welcome faces of F. H. S. graduates. All of the class of '93, except Maud and Silas, have visited the school, and shortly after the beginning of the fall term, Mr. Mitchell gladdcned our hearts by a call. He spoke a few words, to the school, and we girls could not keep the tears back when he spoke ofthe friendships formed during the time he was with us, and of his leaving' us. Surely we all wish him joy and suc- cess in his new field of labor, and would have him remember that he will always find in us, true friends. Last term, the question- Resolved that intemperance is a greater evil than war. was discussed. The dis- putants were: Arifinmmivia. Robert Randall, Edith Bennett, Fred Green, Lucy llurr. Nncmriiiva.
