.I12rfffL.fVo-1 B i HOME ROOM THIRTY-EIGHT gf NFS.. v- S 7,53 79 . J I We, the B9 group of Home Room 38, were quite small upon our arrival at McKinley. How big the buildings looked to us! Older and wiser pupils told us that elevators were used in some of the buildings and we believed them. Now we see how green we 'must have been. Our home room teacher's name used to be St. John unftil she changed it to Sprenkle to avoid confusion in regard to the lock- ers. Pupils didn't know which Mrs. St. John really had charge of the lockers. Our A7 term proved better than our B7 term because we had learned to be better McKinleyites. One thing we did to make our room more cheerful was to bring pictures from magazines, which we made into posters for decorating our walls. Several other rooms followed our example. Every clay in every way we grew better and better in schol- arship and citizenship. Among other things, we formed a Citizenship Club, which has been the means of many helpful suggestions toward our being better citizens. Our room was honored by having Kenneth Cowles as B8 and A8 representative on the Board of Control, and at the present time many of our members are holding positions of trust in different de- partments throughout the school. Now we are on the home-stretch toward our goal at McKinley. Space will not permit me to tell of the wonderful development of the members of our home room as B9's. The only way to find out about us is to take a peep in Room 38 any sixth period. See for yourself how we delve into books after knowledge. Later on, look us over when we are A9's as the finished product of McKinley.-Mercedes Emzngeline Wright.
