THE ECHO 15 TO THE CLASS OF 1927 Already to win, already to joke, Already to laugh, already to smoke, Already to die for Sumner High — That ' s the spirit to get them by. Already to lend a helping hand To those in need in every strand, Already to give, but never take — Each heart is as clear as a big blue lake. Some are slow; some are fast; Others are lost in a lonesome cast. Silver and green, their colors high, Lift them upward to the sky. May their motto carry them far, “May Knowledge Increase” with every star. So here’s a prayer to God in heaven, May He always be just to the class of “1927.” Hazel Tibbetts, ’29. JUNIOR CLASS NOTES On November 15, 1926 the Junior Class held their first meeting. After the noise and jabber had ceased, or partly stopped, we started in cn the business of the day, which was to elect officers for the coming year. After a little debating the following were chosen: President, Arthur Therrian; vice- president, Helen Gray; secretary, Lindsay Hiltz; treasurer, Herbert Reckards. The meeting was then adjourned and there was a grand rush for the door. The second meeting was held on Novem- ber 22, 1926. The business of this meting was to elect a new secretary and a new treasurer as Herbert and Lindsay had handed in their resignations which were ac- cepted. We believe Herbert thought that he was “hogging” the office of treasurer as he had held it for four years, and we sus- pect that Lindsay was afraid of becoming too popular. Marion Hill was elected secre- tary and Robert Jardine, treasurer. On November thirtieth we assembled for the third time. The question of dues arose. Someone suggested raising the dues to twenty-five cents a month, but this was voted down and it was decided to let the dues remain at twenty cents a month. There was considerable talk concerning the mat- ter of paying last year’s dues. A com- mittee was chosen to select the class rings. The folowing: Katherine McCool, Marion Hill and Herbert Reckards have been inter- viewing salesmen and have at last selected the design which they deem worthy to grace the hands of the high and esteemed Juniors. Katherine McCool, Junior Class Representative. JUNIOR CLASS ALPHABET J — is for Jessie so prim and so neat, Who to the teachers is always so sweet.
