Senior Class History In the beginning of the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and twenty-six. there entered into this land of learning three and seventy seekers of knowledge, with Essie Lawing as their leader. Some came up from the seventh grade, where they had been busily engaged for some time in storing their minds with the wine of wisdomg others, from more distant halls of instruction. As they entered into this new place they were received with great rejoicing by those who tas it was decreedj should henceforth lead them up the perilous byways of knowledge. As they dwelt long in the land, their greenness wore away, and they each became accustomed to the ways and inhabitants thereof. At the beginning of the second year ot' their sojourn, it was dis- covered that thirteen classmates had fallen by the wayside, and it was with much sorrowing that the class went on its way. In the spring they found that they were to carry the daisy chain for the dignified Seniors, whom they had admired and held in such awe for the last two years. Immediately were th-eir best efforts put forth to make of the occasion a great event. First, came the extensive drill up the chapel aisles so that straggling sophomore feet might learn to rise and fall in dignified marching rhythm on the night of the real processional. Then appeared the spring dawn, when shadowy figures, armed to the teeth with rusty knives and old scissors, met at the school house, bent upon a mys- terious, rural pilgrimage. The sophomores were going up hill and down dale in search of thousands of daisies to be woven into their chain. At last came the gala night, towards which all endeavor had turned. The girls in soft white dresses, the boys in neat white trousers and blue coats, formed a long flower-aisle, and accompanied their sister class up to its triumph. This event, so long looked forward to, was over and past in a brief few minutes, just as the wind bends the slender grasses and is gone. A still smaller group assembled in nineteen hundred and twenty-eight to begin the third year of its journey. At this time, casual observers might have noted a change in the junior attitude towards life. Dating from this point, all full-fledged juniors adopted a paternal kindness towards lower classmen and a fraternal ease in the presence of the once deitied seniors. This feeling of near-equality with seniors soon brought the juniors their reward. They became every day more conscious of senior glances linltlt' IiLL'l'l7ILf .seven
