rFmP jMHSR IIIIEII Junior Class Poem We have had a happy school year, As Juniors strong and fine, But we pass on in the river of life tVith good old Father Time. We haven't forgotten our Sophomore days, Or our Freshman year of strife; These always will live in memory, At; we travel on through life. Our new class hardships we look straight in the face, And think with a glow of pride Of our present teachers, whose training will help In the future troubles of lites tide. There isnt a Class that is equal to 0111's, VVeH'e proud of it one and all, And with courage weill climb the Senior Hill That waits for us next fall. Junior Class History Let us focus our thoughts on the beginning of the year 1923, when we just began to 21p: preeiate school. There were seventeen mem- bers in this memorable class. We were just a group of jolly, happy, good natured young- sters, knowing nothing of troubles and wor- ries. This group started their studies to- gether in District No. 10, with one teacher teaching the entire eight grades in one small building. There were four pupils of the group, that stayed until the new high school was built. They were: Robert Manning, Helen Dzienis, Grretta Darrock and Helena VunMeter. The next to join our number was Robert Stevens and Louise Hawks. Our newest and last pupil to enter was hlary Brunson. The year 1924 will ever he remembered for two memorable events; first, our debut into high school with all the accompanying excitement and thrilling changes; second, the opening of the newer Madison. W7e esteemed it :1 great honor to he the hrst eighth grade class to he graduated from the new building. As Freshmen we began our first real tasks by delving deeply into Latinj trying our ability and wits in debating and indulging in Algebra. This was :1 bewildering year, but nevertheless we came through successfully. The Sophomore year was not an active one, however, as we were laying plans for the future. The Junior year has been the full- est, jollist and the nlerriest. XVe have had plays, basketball games and many successful parties, and have taken an active part in the glee club, athletic and art clubs. Febru- ary 22, we organized our class and chose our class officers, who shall represent the class in its many projects, one of which is raising money for the Washington Trip Fund XVith hard work and good scholarship, we hope to carry on our work next fall to such a degree that it will conform to the high standard set by the senior class of ,29, and add new laurels to our record.
