by much study and experience the heretofore untried field of high school. For years we had looked forward to that day as in the grades we were instilled with knowledge and high aims. With this knowledge, these high aims, and the help of our beloved instructors, we were soon no longer green and fresh, but were able to assume almost as much dignity as we now possess as Seniors. Although, Freshmen we captured prizes from the Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. Among these being three half holidays and a large picture of our class room. With the exception of a few who fell by the wayside, thus we covered the first year of our high school career. Chapter II. The second year of our high school career was started on September 14, 1925. As Mr. Erwin, our class supervisor and home room teacher, could not be here the first two weeks, we had a substitute. But after we got started the days went so fast that Christmas vacation came and we were free for the time being. $ tarting back to school we went to work with a will because ex- aminations were coming and we had to keep up our reputation. This year as the year before, we were honored in getting prizes and the best one was a very large cake presented to us by the Parent-Teachers’ Association. Also one of the important features of our Sophomore year was our play, “The Little Clodhopper,” directed by Mrs. Rinker, and pronounced quite a success by our appreciative audience. Throughout the spring, although Caesar was our nightmare, we managed to keep such a cheerful and busy class that we were bringing joy to our teachers. We were all glad when vacation time came so we could rest after the hard winter’s work. a ie “e rapier, THE COMET SENIOR eG AS Smaruonne iey, Chapter I.
