THE JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY By Ethel Leenhouts When our class organized in 1923 as Freshmen, we had thirty-three members. It was the largest class in the high school. In our first meeting we elected our class officers: James Whitbourne, president: Ralph Casey, vice-presidentg Edith Monroe, secretary and treasurer. Mr. Campbell was chosen as our class advisor. In our next meeting we chose old rose and sand for our class colors, and adopted the motto: May Knowledge Increase. Our class had greatly decreased in number when we organized in 1924 as Sopho- mores. We had twenty-five members. In our first meeting Anna Moque was elected president, Ethel Leenhouts, vice- presidentg Rexford Ransley, secretary and treasurer. Miss Du Mont was chosen as our class advisor, and we kept the same colors and motto that we had in 1923. After Miss Du Mont left, Mrs. Bridges was chosen to take her place as class advisor. Some members of the class attended the Shakespearian play, The Merchant of Venice. The Sophomores together with the Juniors gave a farewell party for Miss Du Mont at her home. The Sophomores with others celebrated Grace Bushart's birthday at her home. A picnic at Pultneyville given by the Sophomores and Fresh- men completed our second year. When we met as Juniors in September, we organized with seven members. lVIax Ver Dow was elected presidentg Myron Leenhouts, vice-presidentg and Anna Moque, secretary and treasurer. Mrs. De Long was appointed our class advisor. We kept the same colors and class motto that we had the preceding years. Werchose sweet peas as our clas flowers. VVe selected our class rings, with which we were all very much pleased. In January the number of Juniors increased to ten. VVhen we are Seniors we'll shine. VVait and see. 13 :E-L
