gpg- g THE TRIPLE D - FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY A merry band of knowledge seekers, twentyftwo in number, entered Paragon High School, September 10. These people, by inheritance, were called Freshmen. In the way of class organization they chose for their class sponsor Miss Spencerg President, Darrel Burnett, VicefPresident, Richard Stines, Secretary-Treasurer, Olive Lewis. They decided that blue and white would be their class colors, and the class flower should be an American Beauty Rose. They selected what they considered a very appropriate motto-- At the Foot Hills Climbing. The Freshmen are a jolly bunch, and they are glad that they still have three more short years at 'Paragon High. They have, however, lost two of their number, Arlie Pettit, who left school on account of ill health, and Norva Ray, who has gone to another school, thus leaving twenty members. On Saturday night, November 23, the Freshmen gave a class party in the High School Gymnasium. Guests were invited, and Miss Spencer was in charge of the event. - There are two students in the Orchestra who belong to the Freshman Class. There are eight others who are training for service. The Freshmen are looking out for the rainy day as far as finance goes. Each member is required to pay dues per month. By so doing they hope to give a reception to the Seniors when, and if, their time comes to do so. CLASS POEM We've been in school a few short weeks, We've scarcely made a start, But each of us for knowledge seeks With all his mind and heart. We envy not the ones who go From Paragon High today, For high school days are best, we know, And we are glad to stay. Page Thirty-two

1 THE TRIPLE D 1 JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL We've got a rep for plenty of pep, And live up to our name. The Junior High of P. H. S. Is surely bound for fame. just give us time and elbow room, We ask no other favors. We'll row our boat, let her sink or float, For our courage never wavers. Our goal is far before us. Our journey toward it is like that of a ship which is lost in a fog, which is nearing its ownlland yet unable to recognize its route, while friends stand ashore and beckon the vaguely outlined ship onward. We are truly thankful, for this page which the Seniors have given us, and we at this time pledge ourselves to work, in the years that are to come, with might and main for the glory of the name QP. H. SJ that is dear to us. IN THE YEARS 1953934 We wish to be a Senior In the years to come, And step around quite gaily, And probably work some. With knowledge on our shoulders, And both feet in a stirrup We'll- gallop 'cross the earthly plains And accomplish all kinds of work. We'll be necessary creatures, With diplomas by our sides, We'll say goodfbye to P. H. S. Before we start to ride. Page Thirty-four
