oil-THE EPOCH, 1927-Y.-aim, U Freshman Diary IH September thirteenth and we are in high school at last, and have the east side of the assembly for our very own. A new course of study must be planned, new lessons prepared, and good grades must be made in order to get our credits. All of the girls except four are taking the academic course, Algebra, Latin, English, Art, and Home Economics. The boys are taking a commercial course, Commercial Arithmetic, Art, Manual Training, English, and Vocational Civics. We have been initiated and now feel ourselves more a part of high school life. It seems so long a time until Thanksgiving and then the weeks fly until it is Christmas and vacation time. After Christmas, examinations loom in the distance and we work all the harder so that we may get ex- empted. There was not anyone who got exempted in everything. One was exempted in four subjects. Promotion time comes and most of us move over. A few are left be- hind to take up their work with the new 9B's. There are only fifteen in the new 9B class. I often wonder if they feel as bewildered as we did when we came into high school. We have had supervised study introduced and at first we had some difliculty in adapting ourselves to it. We have also elected a new president, Edmond Vironet, in place of the old one, Kenneth Simmons, who has gone into the tenth grade. We initiated our new members early in the semester and hope it was as successful as our own in the fall. We have five girls, one regular and four substitutes, on the girls' first team, and one boy on the boys' first team and one on the second team. We have enjoyed our first year very much and hope to make our second one even more interesting. -Myrtle Belle Coy, '30 201 The teachers are the queerest things That ever I did see. If I don't stand and talk all clay It means salvation for me. No matter what I want to do It's always wrong with them. So I start praying at 3 o'clock But prayers never affect her or him. And when at last the bell doth ring And I've gone and got my cap, H. R. stands up and reads a list And salvation knocks me flat. -W. C.
