CLASS POEM. When in the course of school-days fair The time of graduation comes, To separate old friends so dear And part old pals and long sworn chums, We think with gladness of years gone by But the thought of parting brings a sigh. We know that together no more we may stay, That each of our classmates will take his own way, That the old school-days are past and done While we the goal we sought have won. And so it is with this class of ours; We’ve toiled on together thru sunshine and showers. For four long years we’ve clung together Thru joys and sorrows, and all kinds of weather. It is true we have lost from our class over half One way and another they’ve strayed from the path, Till now at Commencement time we stand With only twelve in our little band, But we realize now, yes, every one Though we thought we had finished, we’ve just begun.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY. President—CLYDE MORGAN. Vice-president—MARIEM SMITH. Secretary-Treasurer—WILL ORVIS. When the class of 1911 entered High School it consisted of twenty-two members. When we passed from the eighth grade into the Freshman class we numbered eighteen, but six more joined us from other schools. Probably on account of our large number we received a great many slams. We have not been wholly free from them thruout our high school life. On entering the Sophomore year we lost Ora Ferris, Hazel and Maud Hansen, Louis Merrill, and Charles Underwood, but gained Lida Best. Our Sophomore year proved very successful. Our Junior year was our pleasantest and most eventful. Among the hair-raising and side-splitting events were: stolen Sophomore feast, Junior reception, Senior return, the ever-to-be-remembered Brandon trip, and the two successful debates against the Seniors’ victorious one. During this year we were fortunate in gaining Ethel Ryder, unfortunate in losing Nellie Hitchcock, Jassie Reynolds, Ora Ferris, Lloyd Filbey, Kelsey McChain, and Lida Best. We gained our first experience in entertaining the Seniors at the Bank Hall. The evening was pleasantly spent by playing games and dancing. We surpassed all previous receptions in the serving of a four course luncheon, but we were certainly repaid for our work by the “soiree” given by the Seniors at Lamartine. Now we have finally reached the coveted goal, for we are Seniors. We cannot boast the large number of fellow classmates with which we started out but are proud of our dozen remaining members. This has been our busiest year, altho the routine of daily work has been broken by numerous pleasurable events. The first of these was the Hallowe’en party given by the faculty, which proved to be a “howling” success, especially when we were welcomed by Messieur Skeleton and enchanted by the green eyes of the wriggling snakes. (Of course, one worthy member of our class got stuck in the barrel.) We spent another pleasant evening at the reception given us by the Juniors. Remembering the pleasant time we had enjoyed, we in return entertained them at a Progressive Party, which proved
