'Wi 14 l' r t fix' Auf'- mhs Glasses Napoleon, Ohio, Sept. I3, l925. Deer Pa :-Well I got to town O. K. I didn't even get lost on them there bug streets. I finally found Aunt Sarah's house and got acquainted. Gee, she stays up most all nite. She never went to bed before 9:30. I got up late, about 6:30 and washed all up, brushed my hair and everything. Then I went to school. I got there kinda early and was wandering around in the building when I went and run onto a grate big feller who said his name was Brillhart. He took me up stairs and said I should sit down in that there big hall they call the assembly. Then he told me I was a freshman something or other, I just coulcln't make it out. Purty soon some more kids kum in the room and sat down. After while a bell rung and Hon. Brillhart came in to make a talk about our school work. He made us sign a piece of paper and tell what course we wanted to take. Then he took up the slips and told us what books to buy and then said we could go hum. ' After dinner I went down on the meadow and watched some guys have a hght over a funny looking egg. They called it a pig-skin but I know bettern' that. Pigs don't lay eggs. Ennyhow these guys had on funny looking clothes and they chased the pig-skin all over the skillet. C I guess that's what they call the meadow., Gee, it musta been hard boiled cause it didn't even break. The next morning I went to school again and sat down in the same pew l was in the day before. After a bit Hon. Brillhart came in and looked kinda dignified and then all at once he hollered my name right out. Then he said I was supposed to kum to the office. I thought maybe they was gonna promote me. Well, I went down to said office and there I met Mr. Ash and Ora Green. Then Hon. Brillhart took me in his office and said he saw that I was a green one. But I stopped him and told him that my name was Perkins, not Green. Then he go-t mad and told me he wanted to talk. So I says go ahead. Then he said that I must be purty dum, so he was gonna tell me something about school. Well, he did, fer about half-hour, me a soaking it all in. He told me all about the classes too. Gosh, it's funny they got names fer all the guys here. He said I was a Freshman. CI don't know where he gets the fresh stuff but I sure am a man.J The Freshmens is the first class he says, and that they are all dum and get lost a lot. Then the next class is the Sophmores and that they is a lot smarter'n the Freshmen. He said they is a sorter big brother to the Freshmens and does all their initiaion for 'em an' everything. I don't know what initiation means but I suppose it is some sort of a lesson. lt's kind of the Sophomores to help 'em that way. The juniors come next. He says they is about perfect. They is too dumb to get stuck-up and too dog-gone smart to be a Sophmore. The last bunch is called Seniors. They almost run things, bein' so awful smart. Well, after him and Hon. Ash have talked with me I feel real smart. S I got back to my assembly to tell the rest of the kids how smart I am. , THE BUCKEYE We spent the rest of the clay in going to our classes and meeting our teachers. Gee, I run around the building so much trying to find my classes that I'm all in. l'hese here classes are different they is called Algebra class and Latin class and all kinds of class. So I don't even know what class I'm in now. My stars! It's getting after 8 o'clock and I ain't in bed. So long. Yer son --Percy. Page Twenty-four 1 ' I 1 'IA r .5Y JL'-li: J' it .I 5 0
