'6Also, during this year, the Class was entertained at the suburban home of Augusta Woddell and the country home of Grey McCord. n The most pleasing and enjoyable event of all, however, was the Hspreadw at E. E. Neal's summer cottage, Indian Point. No one molested us, no one knew anything about our movements until the next day. At that time the chagrin of the Seniors was very noticeable, because on all previous oc- casions they had bothered us very much. But the crowning glory of our-High School course was our Senior year, When we started in, we chose as President, Albert Tucker, Vice- president, Chauncey Craig, Secretary and Treasurer, Blanche Carlin. At the beginning of the year, we were entertained royally at the beautiful country home of Lura Mallery. Soon after this, at a class meeting, we decided to publish an annual. Of course, if we published a year-book, we would have to give some kind of an entertainment to raise the necessary funds. So, with the help of our English instructor, we decided to give, a play, entitled, Mice and Men. The cast was selected and many nights were spent in rehearsing for it. At last, the night came on which we were to show our dramatic ability. That was March twenty-fourth, at the Opera House. Never before had a Senior Class taken it upon them- selves to give a play in that place, because they considered it too expen- sive. However, we netted the neat sum of one hundred seventy-seven dollars and sixty-eight cents. Was the play a success in every way? ' broke in the reporter. HThat is hardly proper for me to say, but I think if all newspaper reports were true, that the class showed much ability in that line of work, at least, they were praised enough. ' We had some in'our Class that distinguished themselves in athletics. The most note-worthy of these were Albert Tucker, Albert Hare, George Bowen, Raymond Wise, Evans Dierlein, Charles Nash and George Tescher. 6'We had, too, a few who distinguished themselves by being members of the Contest Chorus. Those were Ruth Caca, Bertus Farlow, Evange- line Jenkins, Blanche Carlin, Albert Tucker, Chauncey Craig, Albert Hare and Noel Young. i'Now we are separated. We will start on life's journey. Whether we succeed in what we attempt is not to be told now. We will leave those who are to come after us to say that, and to praise us, I hope, for all that we tried to do while studying and preparing ourselves for work in dear old N. H. S. HThese days will always rise before us as the most pleasant of our lives. We can think of these and smile as we solve the problems which will confront us in the future. So they separated, one to write us up, the other to think of the past and look forward to the future. I AUGUSTA WODDELL , '11,

ia: HISTORY I :rv 1 , I WAS the morning after Commencement that one of the graduates came face to face with a local newspaper reporter, who stopped him saying, '6Are you not a member of the Class of Nineteen Elevenif' 'CI am, sir. Is there anything that I can do to help you?', HYes, yes. I would have you give me the history of your Class. But is it not unusual to have a newspaper reporter ask for the history of a graduating class? It is not an every day occurrence, but I have a motive in doing it. We Wish it for publication. Very well, I will do my best. Although we floated our banners be- low those of the Class of Nineteen Ten, I am very proud of my Class. We entered' N. H. S. in the fall of the year nineteen seven, inexperienced, but thinking we knew all there was to know. At our first class meeting we elected as President, .Ianies Stevenson, Vice-president, George Tescherg Secretary and Treasurer, Blanche Carlin. At this time we chose old rose and green as Class Colors. That year we were decidedly in the back-ground. The principal thing of note was the class party given at the home of the Misses Mabel and Gladys Metsker, a short dis- tance west of the city. In our Sophomore year, we elected as President, Chauncey Craigg Vice-president, Albert Tucker, Secretary and Treasurer, Blanche Carlin. This Year we seemed a little more prominent because we were a little nearer the Seniors. But we had found out that we did not know quite everything. This hurt us very much, and we were beginning to feel down-hearted and out of place at the end of the school year. HI-Iowever, by the time school began that fall, we were very enthu- siastic and elated over the fact that we, who two years before were called the insignificant 4'Freshies, were now Juniors with more responsibilities than ever before. This year we elected as president, Albert Tucker, Vice-president, George Bowen, Secretary and Treasurer, Blanche Carlin. Early in the year we decided to give the Seniors a banquet, such as they never hoped to have. This note-worthy event was given at the Grand Hotel in the latter part of the school year. After the banquet, we con- ducted them to the K. of P. Hall, Where we enjoyed ourselves dancing until an early hour. Whether we succeeded in doing for the Seniors what we intended, is for them to say, not us. 'lIt was during this year that Chauncey Craig represented our Class in the Primary Oratorical Contest. In this contest he did not win first place, but I feel sure that he will, in time, become a great orator.
