On the fifteenth day of September thirty-one students assembled in room five, but eight of this number were removed to room seven due to overcrowded conditions. Penmanship was added to the usual curriculum for the boys and Home Eco- nomics was substituted for General Science for the girls. The girls of our class have the distinction of being pioneers in this field, for never before in the history of the Milan High School has serving and cooking been offered. The girls made considerable progreis in making their own clothes as well as planning, preparing and serving meals. Another interesting feature of this n0W depaffmem WSIS the SWIG Show, held in the High School Room, April Sth. ' ' In November a class party was held in the Agriculture building. Games were played and refreshments were served. On the last day of the first semester we were assigned to room seven as our home room. The most difficult, but yet, the most interesting feature of our work was to write career booksg each person wrote in book form about the profession he or she was most interested. On April third, we chose Blue and White as our class colors. Calista Barrett and Taylor Goodhall are the honor students of our class. The Class is now looking forward to class day when we shall receive our diplo- mas. Twenty-six

At the first class meeting, llarcld Miller was elected President: Leon Messler, Vice-Presidentg Leona Bushong, Secretwvy and Trearurer. A baseball team was or- ganized soon after school started. Will am Neilly was chosen Captain. At Christ- mas time gifts were exchanged and received by all members of the class. Early in January a sleighing party was enjoyed, two large sleighs took the crowd for a merry ride. After serious consideration a student cyruncil was chosen. This group met and drew up a code of laws. These were presented to the class, who after some discussion voted to accept them. This council met several times when special problems arose and after combining their ideas, were able to discuss the topics in a forceful manner. From time to time debates were arranged and short talks given by members of the class on current topics. When the High School decided to have a student council two members, Vivian Grannis and Harry Loveland, of our acting council were chosen to represent us in this new group. A great deal of good has been derived from this work, especially along the lines of Public Speaking. We have been well represented on the Honor Roll, having one-fourth of our number listed each term. We are looking forward to our spring party as an enjoyable close to a busy and profitable year. Twenty-seven
