jForeworft HE Senior Class of 1919 presents this Crimson J as Oa memory books and as a reminder of the many good times and severe trials of their high school days. This books is a brave little book for its existence has depended on the surmounting of many difficulties, the greatest being the fire, the flu and the War. One of the most patriotic things the class of ’19 ever did was to decide not to have an annual on account of war conditions. The cessation of hostilities on November 11 reversed these conditions. As school was closed because of the flu quarantine until January 2. it was not until then the class felt able to support a year-book. Also, the loss of our building made hours in which to work very difficult. Ws are sorry indeed to leave old J. H. S. but we sincerely hope that the following classes will graduate from and their Crimson J’s will be issued from a fine new J- H. S.
