Grades Five and Six We might be called the OverHow of Jefferson Center. Then, too, we might be accused of havi-ng a rather migratory spirit about us, since we'vc changed our habitat at different times. When school began in fall, grades five and six were with grade four in Room Z. After three weeks in this crowded condition, grades 5 'and 6 were moved to one of the high school recitation rooms with Miss Sprunger as teacher. By means of careful calculation it was made possible to accommodate 40 pu- pils in that room, but Jefferson Center grew so fast and her numbers increased so rapidly that we couldn't even accommodate all who should have been in these two grades. In November a second move was made. This time still farther down. The Manual Training room had been equipped in one of the basement rooms. In order to remedy matters, one of the school buildings of the township was moved on the school grounds, and the manual train equipment was moved there. The M. T. room was then changed to a class room, and here is where grades five and six spent the rest of the winter. During the year 42 pupils were enrolled. At Christmas time Herschel Walker left us, and moved to Illinois. In February, Vilas Wendell dropped out, and in March, Opal Bollenbacher and Ruth Grace were forced to leave us on account of sickness. The number on the roll at present is 38.

Third and Fourth Grades On the morning of September 12, forty-five pair of willing little feet found their way to room two, each little owner eager to do his share towards making a happy and profitable year. A book shortage caused a few days' delay but soon this obstacle was removed-everyi3!ne began to pull and kept pullingfuntil the end. A , ' This happy band was almost complete-so good was their attendancef until the :Hu epidemic came upon them. Nearly every one was forced to be absent on this account. Elizabeth Mosser and Chester Adams probably had the worst attacks. '- y Our fame spread so far and so wide that Glenn Hall of Muncie, Virginia Sapp of Fort VVayne and Helen Fogle of Oklahoma hastened to join us. As long as the weather permitted these little enthusiasts could be found enjoying their midday lunch in the pretty grove at theirear of the play- ground. Each new day brought its wonder-bright green moss, beautifully colored leaves, nuts, a squirrel, its nest, a cocoon-until at last the pussy wi-llow made its appearance and one bright spring day the first wild Hower was discovered. A . Now vacation time is iiear and those who worked hardest will enjoy it most. - A Some of our number hope to be engineers, carpenters, farmers, teachers, housekeepers, cooks in restaurants, lawyers, poets, storekeepers and dish- washers in restaurants. One boy .expressed the desire of being an 'fold bachelor.

Seventh and Eighth Grade It so happened on Sept. 12, 1921, that we in thevseventh and eighth grade assembled, together with the teacher in the Jefferson Center High and Consolidated School building on the upper story in the southwest-corner of said building to make out our program for our studies the coming winter. We all expected hard work ahead and certainly we had it. We went over the work as laid down by the State Course of Study. How well we did it remains to be determined later. It took us a few days to get adjusted to the new order of things but after that we had much to do andmuch to remem- ber-our studies, our jokes and our quotations, all went to round us out for High School work which we all expect to engage in when our opportunity arrives. We feel that we did our best and our only regret is that school closes so soon. . 6 , L , H ' CLASS ROLL Teacher-jesse W.
