‘Fige nineteen r -------------—— ---------------------—— - Sophomore Class History One fine autumn morning in September. 1914, a group of excited boys and girls gathered in the assembly room of the Kouts High School, ready to enroll as Freshmen. As members of our class there were twelve boys and nine girls, namely: Harry Maxwell. Wilbert Dunkel, Dorothy Ander- son. I .aura Kosankc, George Wandry, Anita Rosenbaum. Walter Thatcher. Bethel Wheeler, Leonard Pietsch. Harry Folsom. Cameron Betterton, Herrold Cannon. Josephine Cincoski. Jessie Rlachly. Dorothy Dctlcfs. Ruth Wandry. Jessie Mansfield. Marion Williamson. John Wandry. Hiram Berlin, and I. The teachers were then introduced to the school ami our work began. We were to take German. F.nglish and Zoology under Professor Rol crtson, and Algebra under Mr. Alexander. In German we studied in Y'os’s “Essentials and translated “Gluck Auf.” In English wc studied Rhetoric and read some interesting hooks. In Zoology wc learned how to dissect and learned the various names of the parts of fish, snakes, etc. Mr. Alexander taught us in Algebra, and he soon made us accustomed to finding the value of x. During the year the number of our class was lessened when Walter Thatcher moved away and entered another high school. We all kept struggling on to the end of the year hoping to be Sophomores next year and never to be “Freshies” again. In the autumn of 1915 wc returned as Sophomores. Count- ing over our number we found that six had left us. We found ourselves under Miss Goodcnough’s guidance in English and wc studied hard on our various works. In German we still studied in our Vos's “Essentials” and translated several interesting books. This year we were taught Geometry instead of Algebra by Professor Alexander. In this we learned how to bisect angles and other similar easy( ?) things. The hoys of the class took Agriculture under Professor Alexander, hoping to be great farmers some day. while the girls took Domestic Science under Miss Krueger. Nearly all the pupils are still in the class, and may they all remain until the year nincteen-eighteen. which will be the last year of our career in high school. Enw i n Koester, ’ 18.
