There is absolutely no doubt but that we all like and admire this steadfast school friend of ours-and it is so com- forting to see her hand go up in answer to some such question as: Who was the Attic boy '? the rest of us get occupied with shoestrings or searching for a pen- cil. Her full strong voice lends no doubt- ful aid to the Glee Club, and she can take tenor beautifully in chorus. 'Illlllllllill-illll2IlII'.. 5 ,, MAX WILLIAM CARPENTER We don't want him any longer, he's long enough already. Joke Editor Mirror g Footballg The Touch-Down. There couldn't be any hesitating about what we mention first in this fellow's makeup-he is our foremost humorist. He's quite a help in a scientific way, too -not only because of his great variety of experience but just his presence is enlivening! The innocent confidence with which he informs us that William Shake- speare was one of the foremost writers of the 18th century would melt a heart of stone.

Wie Were seated by Mr. 'l'wineham in the southeast assembly room together with the Sophomores who, although very superior, condescended to enumerate for our benefit some of the rules and regulations. After a little of the green had worn off and the upper classes had held their regular class meetings, the Freshmen proceeded to organize. Robert Little was chosen president: Charley Johnston, vice-president: Doris lflicks. secretary and treasurer, and our colors, lavender and white. Immediately the class scraps began, but after about a week died down 3 and as soon as our first wienie roast was over we settled down to hard work on Latin, Algebra, Botany and English with a little Domestic Science. Manual Training, Music and Drawing thrown in as extras. XVhen we had been going to school about two months, we came to school one morning to find our books all moved and Mr. Twineliani waiting for us in the hall. The new assembly room had just been completed and we were to begin our work in it that morning. For once the Freshmen were not the only ones who gazed about them wondering where to go. Freshmen, Sopho- mores, Juniors. and Seniors all wandered about together with one common obiect in view-to End their respective places. llowever, soon all was reor- ganized and the work went on smoothly. Before the term was over we had lost tive of our members, one leaving town and four concluding they did not like Freshman life. . When we came back to school again it was with the privileges of Sopho- niores. XYe, of course, had the green spectacles we had received from the last year's Senior class and if we had thought we were very bright, when the Freshman class began to arrive we found them a much brighter green. This year we had two new teachers who, to all appearances, considered us as a hopeless case, for they both left before the term was over. We now studied Caesar, Algebra, Geometry, linglish and History. XVe changed our colors to red and white and selected the American Beauty rose as our class tlower. By this time we had lost live more members. Three of these seemingly prefered Freshman life to Sophomore for they had stayed behind at the be- ginning of the term. This year closed for us with nothing more exciting than the final exams. llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillll1lllllllllllllllllliiilllllilillllilllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!l'1VlUll!ilfll!IlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllil
