JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Upon enrolling in High School in September 1918, we had a very exalted opinion of ourselves, but when we went into the assembly room that first morning and the rest of the High School shouted “Freshies” and “Hurrahs” and clapped their hands, we began to think a little differently. We thought, however, we had received the whole of our initiation but when we had our first Freshman Class party, some of the higher class boys came over with clippers and clipped our bovs’ hair. It was a rainy night and they held some of the girls in the rain. That was enough for our first year. In our Sophomore year we thought we were pretty ‘big’ for wa sat in the same room with the Juniors and Seniors. They say that in the Sophomore year you learn that you are a ‘‘wise fool” and ws certainly learned it. In our Junior year we were so busy putting on plays to entertain the Seniors that we had little time for anything else. At the beginning of the year, Mildred Snyder, Ida Pennington and Harley Aungst were among our number, biP during the course of the year Ida and Mildred transferred their memership to other schools and Harley Aungst left to work on the farm. Our class has been very bright and original and we feel sure that we have many future musicians, orators, poets, actors and actresses, statesmen and presidents among our number. All through our High School course we have been striving to qualify ours Ives mentally and every other way, so that we may be worthy of occupying those benches of the dignified Seniors.
