ow owe 4 . SENIOR CLASS HISTORY One dismal day in early September 119215 seventy-seven children assembled at a filling station, where some new Fords stood. The children wore upon their faces a look of doubt, but they were told that the Fords were there for their use and for the purpose of starting them upon their career. These Fords represented the Freshmen. They had for their chauffeur, George Moeller and for their guide, Mr. E. E. Rademacher. They traveled a road of contentment, and showed their spirit toward their superiors by entertaining the Sophomores with a delightful party. But in the early part of June, they were taken back to their respective garages, in order that they might have a rest. Feeling that their last year's Fords were not comfortable enough for them, they purchased in September 119221 a new supply of Fords with all the modern accessories, including shock absorbers, which were very necessary, foot warmers, which kept them from getting cold feet, and cut glass flower vases, holding beautiful bouquets of carnations. These car- nations helped to keep the Sophomores in spirits, when they glanced at their Geometry grades. But with their chauffeur George Moeller and Mr. E. Rademacher as advisor, they were able to overcome most of the other difiiculties which they encountered. Following in the ruts of their pre- decessors they entertained the Freshmen with a party in February. By June, however, the accessories had somewhat decreased in quantity and so the Fords were discarded. For their Junior year, they purchased the most beautiful car in America, the Paige. The Paige was driven by John McGhee and guided by Mr. E. E. Rademacher. It purred softly over the macadamized road, until it came to the Batavia system. This hill was passed after a lot of engine trouble and break downs. The Paige gave an elite banquet to the dignified HJ Seniors in that beautiful and romantic month of June. How- ever, owing to an explosion in the Chemistry department, nothing re- mained in the latter part of June but the chassis of the Paige. It was one of those beautiful days in September H9245 that a lux- urious Cadillac fin the form of Seniorsl was seen at the N. T. H. S. A glance at it was enough to convince one of its superiority to all other motor cars. It traveled a road of success with the aid of its chauffeur, John McGhee, and advisors, Miss Yackle and Mr. Crepin. It had a hard time, however, passing up those subjects known as Civics, English and History. Jacking up its dignified body, it entertained the Juniors with a very delightful Valentine party. It hopes to reach its goal with high honors and then enter that educational institution known as The College. EDITH BOSONETTO. Twenty-one
