Junior Cla ss History ’Way back in 1918 we entered Lowell High School, a class of unsophisticated Freshmen. In the beginning we were just shy little folks but now we think we have quite outgrown that stage, at least the “bashful” side and our childish faults. With what awe, we regarder the brilliant upper classmen, those “high-browed” Seniors, and accomplished Juniors. One of our first social endeavors was a masquerade ball, to which the faculty was invited but sad to say, no one came but our class advisor. That was hard luck, nevertheless our attempt was better next time. For all the advice that we received from the “delightful” Seniors, one of our Freshmen girls carried the victory, in the Liberty Loan Essay Contest, over several upper classmen—but we might also add that she was so nervous that she nearly snatched the prize, a German Helmet, from the hands of Mr. Hugh Clark, before he had finished his presenta¬ tion speech. In this same year one of our boys won second place in the local oratorical contest. Of course we felt real “puffed up” ovei ' this new fame. We completed our Freshmen year with a few failures and we left school for vacation with pleasant memories of our first year. The next fall we again entered Lowell High School, but this time with much more knowledge and experience. Our second year brought better results in every field of activity and was much less embarrassing than our first. How much above the insignificant Freshies we felt! Now we were really somebody and felt as though we were a vital part of the High School. We engaged in several affairs which were carried thru with success, until at last we marvelled and wondered “how our small heads could carry all we knew.” In due time vacation came and we left the “house of wisdom” with happy thoughts of the past year. When school opened this autumn, we again returnea ap¬ preciating more the noble attempts of our several faculties in helping us reach another milestone of our High School career. We Juniors really don’t know what will become of us because you see, everybody is so interested in the class welfare and gives counsel and assistance so freely. However it is a great help since we receive inspirations and advice “galore.” Never¬ theless we are really and truly upper classmen now and are “0” so much more dignified than those “children” below us. We entered into the social activities this year with more vivacity and earnestness. First among our many successes was the picture “Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come,” for the benefit of the class. We have taken part in Athletics, espec¬ ially Basketball. Three girls were on the team, one of them being the star. Not only did we shine in Athletics, parties etc., but also in our studies. Out of the eight pupils who were ex¬ empted, four were Juniors.
