Many of the boys Cane girls, tooj received punish- ment from Miss Edna Jackson, but we deserved it, as she was very kind 1,f :hen we did behave. The home economics class served hot lunches, and me often had catastrophes, spilling our milk and food. However, we managed to pull through, all happy and healthy. Seconn promotion, Excited rgain? Yes, of uou.se. It was an event for us. Miss Dolores Adams put ner link in the chain of education by teaching us addition snu subs- truction. He were very proud of that knowledQe, too.

Qur mix .o h year oassed all too soon, and we were ready to entei into cdr TurLer High School, which sounded, oh, so grown up. We were timid around the high school students, but soon became accustomed to so many in one room. The seventh and eighth grades came and went with few events. However, the American Legion, of Kempton presented a medal to Anna Mae Moon, who was chosen by a vote from the class as the out- standing all-around student in the 8th year. On January twenty-second, an event which will be told tc our children, made Prairie High School known the country round. We were snowbound! We had plenty to eat, fs the teachers served us very nice meals. Then came the much-looked-forward to event of our school lives - entering into High School. We were initiated with a splendid p rty given by the other classes. We also be- came full-fledged members of the Sunshine Society. Yes, we were green Fresnies, out weren't those stern Seniors once in our seats? Well, our class of once-thirty is now twenty-five. Some have left, only to come back to dear old P.H.S. Some have gone all their nine years here and hope to finish high school. A few have been with us only a short time, then left to enter another school. We have all changed in char- acter and stature, but we shall never change in our attie tude toward good old Prairie High School - in thinking it is a grand place to be. -Marjorie Tyner 993-4?-lf-9-'vii There was a young miss from Decatur Who went to sing in a theatre The poor little thing, When she started to sing, Got hit with Q rotten tomator. - mins Pyke
