I-I IE! In October four Juniors were instrumental in forming the T. E. T. Club. This club is directly concerned with school activities and the promotion of good school spirit. Von Klepinger was elected president, Robert West vice president, and Harold Bangh- man secretary and treasurer. In the Christmas Seal sale the Juniors were victorious. They sold 2,025 stamps this year against 150 for last year. The Juniors have been successful in all their schemes to finance the Junior and Senior Reception. They have signed a contract agreeing to put on one of the best Lyceum courses to ever come to Lanier School. JUNIOR CLASS PROPHECY As I, Signor Eikenberry, the world's renowned crystal gazer, look into my glass, I predict the following future, ten years from now: First, l see a large, awkward gawky, professor of Agriculture at Ohio State, I see him as Glenn Barnhart, who attended Lanier High School and then went to Ohio State where he won high honors in Agriculture. Glenn always was a book- worm and is no better now than he was then. Now I see The NVelsh Art Studio where Mr. Von Klepinger is chief cartoonist for three daily papers. His helper and companion is Mr. Vernic Eby who edits a column for the Footlights Magazine in New York. Both of these fellows were always drawing cartoons in their books at school, but I Can't understand the name of the firm. Next I see a hard-boiled coach of football at the University of Southern California. VVhen these fellows get yellow, Harold, for it is Harold Baughman, gives them a speech on when he was a quarterback on the Lanier Varsity eleven. I don't know whether Harold's married or not, but he doesn't look as if he were living at a boarding house. Now I see two of the toughest fellows I have ever seen. They have a mining claim in Alaska,iwhere they are trying to get rich without working, as usual. It is Forrest Bell and Freddie Nieman, and Forrest still has his prominent upper lip, but he can't curl it now! Now I see an Automobile Sales and Service Station in Dayton, Ohio, under the name of The Berry Auto Sales Company. It is run by the Berry boys and Kenneth is the president of the company. They are very prosperous and Kenneth does not look the same as he did when he was in school. Now I see a large area of ground in New Jersey covered with White Leghorn chickens belonging to Brubaker, and Miley's Lay Neveri' Farm. Virgil is part owner and president, while Glenn is vice president and part owner. I don't know, but I think Glenn cleans out the coops and gathers the eggs when he's not down in Jersey City eating Marshmallow Fruits. Ralph Meyers used to burn up all of Frank's gasoline going to Gratis, but now he and Norma have settled down on the Meyer's homestead near Wheatville, and Ralph is a very influential farmer. I think it is about time he was settling down, for Ralph was of the roving sort. Next I see one of the leading prima donnas of the time, Miss Ruth Pottenger, with the Chicago Grand Opera Company. You know Ruth always was quiet 'and hard- working in the music class at Lanier. Now last I see a large Pineapple Farm in Cuba near Havana, owned by Suggs K lVest, with Ehler as their foreman. Bob is too busy to catch bugs but of any evening when the three gather around to tune in on H. C. R., the Hamm Radio Corporation, owned by Pearl Hamm, they always bring up old high school days and it seems George can't resist the temptation to say something about football and the A. X. formation. lil El l15l

CRobert Rust and Evelyn Hartl. Twenty are in the Eighth: thirty-two in the Seventh. So long has the present incumbent held sway in Kingdom No. Seven, that eight milestones have become moss-covered. The Cognomens of Room Seven's inhabitants range nearly the entire length of the alphabet,-ambling from A until they nnally wag out at VV. The size of its citizens is so distributed that even the most iinieky are pleased,-- expanding from baby Elmer to the more graceful of the contrary sex. The Boys' Basketball Team had a perfect season,-in the lost column. The girls' team did as well. The satellites of the cinder path consist of 'fljoofyf' Shorty, Radio, VVag, Shif, the Coops, the Moseys, Tommy, XVak, Lucer, 'fBrown, and Hanini. Artie Brubaker brought home the bacon in the county eipherin' contest, while Shorty Tamplin had a look-in in the spelling. In retrospect we should say this has been a most prosperous year for us. l17iI
