History of the Class of 19112 N 1908, only four short years ago, 162 pupils en- tered M. H. S. Since then sgcfgfiog gr be 02. fp,m':xggl, the class has dwindied H5 down to 77. Lillian Hathaway will graduate Los Angeles, Cal., Mar- guerite Free, in Piqua, O., and Esther Tedrow in Middletown, O. We have been glad to welcome into our midst several from other schools. this year in During the first two years we did not organize, and although our class spirit was sadly lacking, we were dis- tinguished from the first by the gen- eral high standard of our work. In the spring of 1910, the whole school was saddened by the death of three of its pupils, Hattie Miles, James Best and Ruth Terhune, all of whom were our classmates. In the middle of our Junior year, we organized and our enthusiasm rapidly rose to a high pitch. We elected Lemuel Fowler, president, Lillian Hathaway, vice president, Russel Beck, treasurer, Marie Stauf, secretary, and Wendell Lewellen, sergeant-at-arms. We soon decided upon steel gray and scarlet as our class colors, and chose the Amer- ican Beauty rose for our official iiower. Our heads fairly swam with plans for good times together. Our Senior friends looked down upon us with a knowing smile as much as to say, You will get over it. We gave our first party at the college and a happier crowd of young people would be difficult to find. Just before the close of school we gave our only formal entertainment, the Ju- nior dance. 'We met again in the fall of 1911, prepared for the home stretch, and many of us realized the necessity of diligent work. We organized imme- diately, electing Herbert Eiler, presi- dent, Helen Vance, Vice president, Ruth Williams, secretary, Paul Leffler, treasurer, Warren Freeman, prophet, Ruth Doyle, poet and Wendell Lewel- len, sergeant-at-arms. We selected Nihil sine labore as our class motto. In January the girls entertained the boys at a leap-year party at the home of Elizabeth Throolp. Later in the win- ter, the boys returned the compliment by entertaining the girls at the home of Mary Abbot. Under the auspices of the Senior class, the Wabash Glee Club gave a concert in the Commercial Club hall, April 5, which was greeted with a crowded house. And now as we near the end of our last year in high school and many of us realize that our school days are over, our good times are tinged with a of sadness at the thought that the class of 1912 will be nothing than a matter of history. note soon more Hazel Hardsog, Historian.
