Fa roy Hanrahan. assembled at the Liberty Center High School to take up the studies of the Freshmen Class. The latter part of Sep- tember. Hazel Collins joined us. but left again at the end of the first semester. All the above pupils name from Lilierty Center, except Grace U nl erg. Genevieve Figolah. l'earl Wheeler, and Marjorie Cuson. who came from Pharos school, while Iva Cole. Ida Cole and Hazel Collins came from Cole school. All those that had gone to Liberty Center lM fore felt quite at home. Those that came from other schools in the township were rather timid at first, but soon they recovered. We were taught Algebra by Mr. Welch. Mr. Davidson tried to teach us Botany, but we found it rather difficult, while Miss Deopker taught us Latin and English. We found that Latin was rather hard to master when we failed to study, so we thought that the best plan was to work a little harder. We all hope that the present class will come back in full force next year and the years to come and that all will graduate in 1927. —RCTH ESSERMAN. '27. Mr. Welch (in Physiology class)—“Oakley, how big is a hook worm?” Oakley—“As big as an angleworm.” Gertrude—“Well, then you could see one when it crawls through your skin!” Mr. Davidson—“What is Chicago noted for?” Alice S.— For people.”

This leaves our class with seven pupils. While the boys are studying Agriculture with disgust, the girls are studying Domestic Science with pleasure, as the following poems show: We’ve a dear little teacher in Domestic- Science In whom we place our reliance. Her knowledge is great. What she keeps in her pate Can always withstand our defiance. The hoys poem : Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. If Civics don't get us. Agriculture must. Besides these subjects we have Ih-cii studying English. Heading. Arithmetic. Physiology. Geogra- phy and Spelling. We are of a stern and very studious type, never doing anything out of the way. Of course, no class is perfect and so it is with ours. We find several of our studies rather hard to get. but we always take the bright side of a thing. The High School has been lacking in one thing, which is of great importance that we. Eighth Graders, have found out. that is. the following commandments: (1) . Thou shalt not whisper. (2) . Thou shalt not leave the room without permission. (3) . Thou shalt not copy from they neighbor. (4) . Thou shalt keep fingers out of ye neigh- bor’s desk. —ALICE SHAW.
