 JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY. As wc. the Juniors of 1915, Arc asked to give the history of former days, l.et us turn from the present happy screen Aud back on the records of the splendid past, gaze. Of course we nil had to be Freshies green To be laughed at atid teased about the blunders wc made. But we, for knowledge, like Cassius, very lean. By those “Sophies were not left long in the shade It was in that first year of High School life We learned our Prof s kindness and generosity. For when we wanted to rest, beiug tired of the strife, Wc would to him, with the pitiful request, lice. Miss Miller taught us the sciences drear. In those horrid subject wc saw our doom; As for Arithmetic, wc did not fear; English—our delight—a tea party each afternoon. But those horrid Frcshie days quickly passed— Much toour delight aud joy you may know wc became learned Sophmores at last, What we knew to the 'Freshies to soon show. In Latin, though it was pretty hard, we did fine: In Algebra, wc learned all about A and U; In Englished, Miss Hutta still drilled each mind, In Ancient History, no starlights were we Then come the year bv far the very best Of all the three years of High School life gone by. Our Juuior year, with victories always blessed. We trace without the aign of a tear or a sigh. In Geometry, none were the circles we couldn't draw; Caesar’s life ill Gallic War by heart we knew; We read Latin and French without a flaw. And never, never will we forget 1492 In debating. Mercie was onr stand-by; She even put a Senior down—finel And James’ oration, so great—Mvl On in the steps of Demosthenes he'll climb. At Christmas we lost Mis Spiller so dear. But Mr. Woolard took her place at that same date; He made us all to tremble aud to fear. And kept u« in if we were a little “bit late. Iu basket-lull, Phil and Bart brought us fame; In all athletics our boy did fine, too; Our girls played Elton a close game; But ‘twa in the quartette they showed what they could do. In spelling, that is where we all did shine. Each one deserving honorable mention; We were the envy of our friends so kind, Even attracting the state's attention. Our Physic reports were spotless and clean, Without even a stain or inky spot; But low? up in a corner what was seen? Only a tiny round for-get-me-uot.“ Four silver medals did our renouned class get At the field-meet, in an honest manner; They were awarded to Mercie, George, James aud Bartlett, And’ Margaret I.ee helped to win the banner. But altogether as a class in whole Wc are the finest class in old J. H S. yet; I'm going to say it, though some friend turns cold, We now have the highest record. I “bet.” We’ve stuck together through thick and thin, Always the pride of our instructors dear; May bur Senior cai be as bright us the past ha been. A glorious, successful, happy year. FRANCKS GILL.
