On the fir-st Monday of Sep- tember in the year of .nineteen eleven we, a band of sixty bright and happy boys and girls, enter- ed the Greenfield -high school. Vile were at once nicknamed '4Fresh- ies but as all new comers were called this for the first year we did not care. The faculty seem- ed to take great pride in us and, as the old song goes, said, there is always something doing when the freshmen come to class. Our freshmen days soon passed and we lived for nine months the life of the dutiful sophomores. Our little- band was somewhat de- creased during this school year, but this only -caused those who re- mained to cling closer together. Witli theteachers' lore still grow- ing greater for us, we, by study- .Tunior oiass Prophecy. g Miss Theo King, a winsome lass, The beauty of the junior class, The wonders of the world shall see.

I suppose you have heard the story th-at hasbeen repeated again and again throughout this town, that the junniors are the l-aziest class in school. People may think so by our -daily school records but we have our standards set high in life, and, by being true and faithful, we eipect to reach them. Vile all do, not expect to come presidents or presidents' wives. We do not expect our paths to be strewn with roses but instead to be filled with rocks and thorns. In - We are an ideal class. In spite of our hard work we always have time for fun. We are great lov- ers of mischief, the spirit of our class being due to.,a certain few, l ., And shall marry a pretty school marm, Clara shall be an artist clever And her renown shall live fore- ever, Zola shall go away from home To dwell in the fairest of cities, Rome, Lack shall be a millionaire And always be bold and debonair Fair Lois shall be an actress gay, Her fame shall last for many a day.

The members, taken either as individuals or as a Whole, are pleasant, agreeable, studious, and bright. NVe have fought many battles in our high school career, each time being on the side of victory. This shows our real char- acter, no matter what our reputa- tion is. It is of no use to take up much space in telling things about our class, you doubtless know them. The other classes will probably need to tell of their unknown fame. It is sufficient to say that we will enter! szhool this f-all, n'ne- teen and fourteen, fully determir- ed to make cur last year our best and happiest. -B. F. Glass Song.

Senior Class Prophecy. As I sat meditating one even- ing after the sun had shed its last feeble rayshupon the beauti- ful landscape my wandering eyes were of a sudden focused on a stream of light that seemed to immerge from the horizon. It as- cended the sky, then receded, but was once more projected upward even higher than the first. Then it occurred to me that I must be the proud witnesser of so com- mon a physical phenomena of the artic circle, the Aurora Borealis. But words cannot express the frightful attitude I was in when to my astonishment but deep in- terest the lashing fire was sten- ciling real words on the blue sky. The first .words were Mary Em- nor Stringfield shall increase her knowledge in- music and tour France to enjoy the combination. By .degrees I had awakened from my slow wits and realized I had a supernatural force before me writing a prophecy for me to in- terpret. The next name was that of Ruth Hughes, who is destined 1:0 finish ia higher institute of learn- ing, then scatter her knowledge by teaching school. The projecting flame acting as a flag pole hoisted a suffragist banner on which was the inscrip- tion world-Wide leadership for 1916 to be conducted by Dorothy Stringfield, assisted by her able secretaries, Ruth Warren and Freddie Draughnf' Ralph Hartfield will have the management of the government telegraph system in 1918 so we will 11ot be compelled to wait long to know the destination of men and the measurements of events.

The lights next became extreme- ly bright, brighter even than the sun's spectrum, and I was com- Delled to withdrraw my gaze. I resumed it soon to be witnessel' 01' a beautiful art production and '--11: - ' - - ' rw . -. ...e:.v:e1ee-nea.a,s,zs,7.eIq-:..7.gan-:--A,- ..-. . -.-.,,, 5 the .brush had been delicately manipulated in one corner, reveal- lllg the Dame of the artist as Al- ma Finley. For some time after graduation Vesta Cotner shall teach school in the future consolidated schools of our county, after which she will live on a farm, but not alone. With my mind puzzled and working rather sluggish at times I was forced to surmise a little, but nevertheless I caught a great picture of a. farm with vast fields of ripening grain waving in the breeze and magnificent buildings, suggesting home itself. But the center of attraction was a person feeding the pigs whom I recog- nized as Norma Quarles. Wholly contrary to- the previous rural scene but one of an equal industrious nature was that of a schoolroom filled with children. At the taecher's desk sat the teacher, small, but yet bus-ily en- gaged in work. None other was it than Nanette, Thomas. The illustrative views Suddenly ceased and -script again prevail- ed. The stenciling light wrote that Hobart Roberts would be- come a lawyer of matchless fame. I knew he would because of his splendid argumentative nature. And Cytha Shouse, our modest member, will become a famous music student, proving a never ending delight to her friends. The Borealis next revealed that Mabel Edwards will teach domes- tic science in New York. Wliile Katie Freedle shall be artist of a fashion concein in the same city. I was then awarded by the vis- ion of a sign painter wielding a brush over his faultless task of preparing a sign for Harold King the painless dentist of 1920. I could not imagine who the paint- er was but after remembering the person's anatomy being rather out of proportion the thought came to me it must be Leslie Renfro. Sylvia Hughes is destined to be a worker in fashionable fancy pat- terns, and Lenore Allison to teach Indians for the government in the fm. urgst' .l.M.F. g Senior Class Song. Tune: You made Me Love You. Prof. Made Us Study. Let us tell you just one thing, We are in the Senior ring, And we always do the right, When the teacers aren't in sight. Why, oh, why should we stay here All our work has now been done, And now we 're leaving, So don't be grieving, Senior class of -G.H.fS. Prof. made us study, V We didn't want to do it, We didn't .want to do it Ctra, la, la, la, laj i And all the time we knew iit,,,,.,-5 I guess we always knew it, I, .T And now we 're leaving, somehow it makes us glad, - ' Until we think of the good old times we've had. Our grades are high and you needn't try to beat us You needn't try to beat us, We want our fun 'tis true, Yes we do, deed we do, you know we do. Got the class spirit that you cry for, You know that we got the kind of grades that you'd die fo1'. Good bye to old G. H. S. We have pictured in our minds, Some day we would surely find, Something for each one to do, Something noble, honest and true. Now our dreamsfof study arej o'er, And we'll think of books no more Come on you Juniors, Y0u'll soon be Seniors, And work as you never did be- fore. ' Juniors worry all day long, Don't know if they're right or wrong, They can't help just what they Say, I I' Seniors made them talk that way. Someone got their white and 'blue Cheese cloth, twenty-four yards too, And now they're crying, No use denying, There's nothing but cheese cloth will do.
