And each one worth his weight in gold. They're studious, honest, brave, and true, Polite, upright, and intelligent too. They all know their lessons from stem to stern And oil special assignments they easily learn. They're never found empty-handed, And oil lessons ore done before they're demanded. They shine in studies, work, and ploy, (Golly, I wish we were really that way.) 4 Pag« Nirw S

How I feel! Guess I must have that morning after feeling. Didn't get home until two this morning. You see we Juniors swung our prom last night and was it a WOW! Last night was the first time a Junior Class of Montello High School has ever presented a prom on its own floor, and we were out to make the best of that privilege. Say, but Jimmy Clark and his Orchestra cer- tainly know how to put it across. King John Draeger, with his queen, Lucille Vaughn, led that gala array of glamour and gal- lantry, known as the grand march, just as though they had practiced stepping out together for some time heretofore. The gym simply glittered and gleamed as the gay dancers held forth. President Jack Robinson, Vice President Lucille Vaughn, Secretary Marian Zierke, and Treas- urer Donald Wetlaufer, under the guidance of Advisers Wohlfert ond McAfee, had been racking their brains and wearing down their resistance for weeks in an effort to make this night an out- standing one on the Hilltop. Those memories of decorating the gym will never be forgotten. But the worst of it was—the teachers expected us to carry on our regular classwork in spite of all this expenditure of time, strength, and originality. How could they expect us to know English, physics, geometry, or history, when all that floated around in our minds was Prom! Prom! Prom! Even the vocational instructors of agriculture, home economics, manual arts, and shorthand showed no consideration for us. In.the fall most of us Juniors purchased class rings for the purpose of identifying ourselves from the lower classmen, but after a short period of display many of us parted with our distinguished em- blems. While we were going through this era of ring-swapping, we took time out to sponsor an all- school dance and handle the concessions at a couple of games. Our M. H. S. pennant sale again helped to stuff our coffers as well as decorate our sleeves. Yes, Sir Diary, after what we have gone through, we Juniors feel entirely capable of filling the Ranks of the High and Mighty for next year
