men, together with the extremely hard course, made the Sophomore year a difficult one, but the class emerged victorious, leaving their burden to be taken up by the coming Sophomore class. When the third year began, each member of the Class felt they were well on the way to the final goal. All minor things were laid aside that they might apply themselves more closely to the work of preparing for the dignified position of Seniors. Notwithstanding the fact that in each of the first three years Cupid had entered and stolen a girl from the Class, the proportion of girls to boys is two to one. During this last year their energies have been spent in raising the standard of the High School and have cheerfully given suggestion and words of advice to all from the Freshmen down to the Faculty. Although these seem to be slow in meeting our expectations, nevertheless the class has been patient and for-bearing. They feel justly proud of their accomplishments and the talent which they displayed in various ways. They hope their example may prove a help in overcoming difficulties of the following classes. ☆ ☆ — 16 —
