, lllgl lllh Sophomore Class History The Sophomore Class or the t'lass of YU as we delight in ealling ourselves, because it reminds us of the two years we have still to spend in our dear old K. H. S., entered with a goodly membership. 'l'llil'ty-three ol' us took up the honorable name of Sophomore on September 18. 1917. For various reasons a mnnber of our members have left us but always with deep regret on both their part and ours. Last year we entered K. ll. S. with a queer ftuttering feeling in our hearts. for it was like entering into a beautiful orchard where the big luseious fruit was on the highest branches aml it seemed almost impossible to ever be able to reach it. However with the help of some splendid teal-hers and the gentle butts and knoeks of the Sophoinores we began to see that it was not quite impossible to attain the heights we sought. This year has been quite an interesting one to us. We have gained confidence in ourselves, for we have learned that we ran do things if we really set out to do them. tYe have had several Grand Doin's. among which our Hallowe'en Masquerade Party is best remembered as an evening of fun. Fun indeed, for after you entered the gym which had been transformed into a Mystery Land you did not know whether you were fairy. ghost. witch or goblin. All the witches gathered in our mysterious grotto that evening and getting into heated discussion among themselves chased each other through the air on their broomstieks. Black eats prowlcd around among the eorustalks. blinking owls looked wise from their per:-hes and ghosts and goblins moved and nodded in the dusky eorners. Weird music and happy voices. half-luished. mingled with the flying witehes and fantastic calls of the spirits. When the crowning feature was presented everyone forgot the fantastic sounds and movements about them and enjoyed heartily the appro. priate lunch. This is only one of our interesting social events. But we do not wish to be remembered for this side of our sehool life only. It is but a side issue, yet essential for as the old adage says, All work and no play makes .lack a dull boy. Our t-lass has taken an active part in both the literary and athletic fields. We were the first of the classes to give an entertainment, several of the Juniors and Seniors. however, giving us their assistance for which we are duly grateful. In Basketball we boasted of two players on both the Varsity Teams. Several important places ou the football team last fall were Hlled by boys from our class. We are all good routers so there is usually a good delegation at the games. In our class work, we necessarily have some Stars who even go so far as getting oneshundred in some of the exams. Although we do not all elaim to be Stars, we do say that our class holds the reputation of doing high grade work. We are still climbing the trees of the beautiful orchard we entered last year and expect to reaeh the very top and secure the fruit which we once only looked at with longing. Q 27 .1- t 4
