THE ANNUAL 9 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1908. It was with a hurried beating of our hearts that we, as a class, first entered the ‘Train” which was to carry us on our journey for the next four years. The damp, foggy morning is well remembered, and we now know that is true that a poor beginning makes a good ending. When, at a tap of the bell, and with Prof. Hall as engineer, the train started, we were, to be sure, rather frightened, but we were confident that the motion would soon be familiar. There was a great preliminary pulling and running to and fro before the different coaches were safely attached and we were well started. The train, of course was M. H. S. and the coaches the different rooms. As our class was so very large, we filled several, and needless to say were very proud of the fact. We were even proud to be known as Freshmen, although it did bring down upon our heads many taunts, and muc h ridicule, for it showed to all who wished to know, that we had attained a position cf some importance in the world. During the first year, life passed smoothly; our class was organized with Bennet Cooke as our first president. Soon, however, came field-day and the first long stop—vacation. As Sophomores we again pursued our journey, this time in coaches which showed our more advanced station in life. Although we steadily increased in wis¬ dom, it was not until our Junior year that we were looked upon as being of some account. The reception given in honor of the Seniors marked this year in our memory and it need only to be said that we upheld the honor of the school. Last September we again resumed our places, having our special car with Miss Aberle as our conductor, now well known and respected, for we are Seniors. Although many of our members have been forced to leave school, yet we are still a large body of students, and each day we are becoming better acquainted with each other. Our class has been singularly fortunate, as we- have had no vacant chairs, caused by a visit of the Reaper. This, our year of hardest work, is also about the most pleasant of all, for we are more fully awake to the benefits which may be obtained from our school. Many are preparing for college, while others do not yet know what the future lias in store for them. All too soon we must graduate and enter upon new duties and occupations. Truly, our past work and play have been but the preparation for the part of our life which is so soon to commence. With great pleasure we will look back upon our schooldays as we remember the joys and even the harder things which came to us in M. H. S.; for our school days are some of the happiest of our lives.
