During our three years of high school we have retained the same class motto and colors. As juniors we published a Junior Echo and purchased class rings. One event which will not be forgotten was the party which Florence Baart gave to entertain her classmates on the evening of April l9. We, the Junior Class of l929, leave these words as a useful guide in the future oftgggtigouwgroglsigai 15

A sausage roast held at Pultneyville May 29, l928, and a Freshman and Sophomore picnic also held at Pultneyville June 25, l928, were enjoyed by us during our Freshman year. Having escaped the misfortunes which steadily lurk in the paths of the Freshman year. twenty-three arrived safely as Sopho- mores in the fall of l9Z8. The class oflicers were elected as follows: Floyd Norton, president: Marion Weeks, vice-president: Geraldine DelVlallie, secretary, and Ruth Draves, treasurer. lVlrs. DeLong was appointed class adviser. We retained the colors blue and gold of the preceding year, but selected a new motto, Ad astra per aspiran f to the stars through difficultiesl. A Sophomore party was held October 26. l928, at Thomp- son's cottage. This party was thoroughly enjoyed by the members of our class, and also by the Juniors and Seniors, as was shown by the hearty welcome given them by the Sophomores, when they unex- pectedly arrived at our party. Next year we all hope to meet as Juniors and to work to the best of our ability to insure that our class as a unit may be the graduating class of l93l. 17
