Q1 U ML1'tlJ'UlQJflUM'l-JHU'lUH Il fl J'U 'l Jl '1 'l 'i ll 'i ll UW HU Q 0 ' '13 L History of the Class of on ISTORY is written in order that the future may be benefitted by Q the experiences and mistakes of the past. No history has been E written previous to this, so we have had no help to guide us through our school life. But our judgment has been good and we S1 0 . . . Q have prospered well, having made no mistakes. Then be not afraid to fol. low in our footsteps, ye under classmen, for none can guide you nearly so well as the wearers of the Purple and Gold. At our first appearance at chapel, in September, 1909, the faculty and 3 upper classes noticed the intelligent, yet quiet and unassuming look which we wore. They foresaw a great future for us, and we were held in high an esteem, instead of being scorned, as all other Freshmen have been. We A . immediately began to get in wrong with the faculty Cwhose good graces have never been fully regainedl and to make a name for ourselves in athletics. Our athletes have formed the backbone of the major portion of the teams since then. In our Sophomore year the Freshmen lived in deadly fear of us, for l they were hazed with far more vigor than before. The most notable event gf of this year was the addition of the class Basket Ball championship to our , list of achievements. We were also well represented in the cast and Q choruses of The Captain of Plymouth. Q Everything went as it should in our junior year, our only hardship was E in giving the annual reception to the Seniors. However, it was given after a great deal of trouble, and was the greatest success of all. Without our gi aid, the oratorio The Prodigal Son would hardly have been successful. 1 At last our dreams came true. We were Seniors, and in that role we 5 did great services to Phila. High. 'Twas we who started the real class spirit Q , in school, and to keep it from going too far, we were forced to hang '14, '15 and '16 in effigy. To the class of '13 must go the credit for the publi- 2: cation of the Corona. We also won all of the school contests by a goodly we margin. 6 The class of '13 is the first class that Principal G. A. Davis has taken through N. P. H. S., so there can be no reason why we should not be Q' above par. Among our numbers are the leaders of all lines of work con- nected with school life, always faithful, and ever ready to lend a helping hand to their duties. If we were permitted to glance into the future, we would find these same persons the leaders of meng scientists and inventors, astonishing 9 the world with their worksg grand opera stars and talented musicians de- ' lighting large audiences: politicians who are not grafters, con-- but all Qi this must be left to the historians of our future life. t ' R.
