'lihree of our members had parts in the school play, 'l'he 'l'ouch-Ilownf' ln our -lunior year we organized with a menihership of twenty-one: seventeen who had been with the class during our two years in high school, and four new ones. The class colors were changed to green and white and the white carnation was adopted as our class flower. Early in the term we enjoyed two large wienie-roasts. XYe soon began making plans for the an- nual ,lunior-Senior Banquet. Now as we close our third year we are eagetly looking forward to the year when we as Seniors may wear the cap and gown. WIA JXX'lil.l. 9P.eXNlil.lf. '21, Eluniur lass mast 'lihe .lunior class roast was held the second week of school on 'l'hursday evening, between rains, with the high school faculty as chaperons. Almost the entire class attended, all meeting at the Library. Three cars packed full set out, each driver thinking that one of the others had the honorable Bob- bicf' But when we got to the Taylor school house we found that we had left Bobbie in town. Immediately a car was sent back after him. There on the Library steps patiently waiting, sat l'lobhie, holding the kerosene Can. Hy the time the rescue party returned the fire was burning and all were busy feeding their faces, Xthile a few were getting a drink at the well a ghost appeared before them, but soon disappeared down the road towards a farm house. Cecelia had been the thoughtful one and brought watermelons, so that we could wash our faces after having eaten a superfluous redundancy. Next the marshmallows were applied as a substitute for powder. After this elaborate toilet had been completed and the teachers' head gear located, we started for home: and. notwithstanding the fact that two cars made the re- turn trip by XYolcott. everyone got back at a respectable hour. fHEl.liN PA Rlilili, '2l.

Full of enthusiasm we gathered in the assembly room thirty strong on the morning of September tenth. Some, in their new-felt pride as high school students, walked boldly about, discussing their new work and teachers. Others, the more timid of our own grade class and those coming from other schools, quietly took their seats and waited the proceedings with great anxiety. The class was soon organized, and the following officers were chosen: Thomas Porter, president: Lloyd jones, vice-presidentg and Oressa Julien, secretary and treasurer. Our first social event was a wienie roast which served the purpose of making us all better acquainted. Not unlike other classes, perhaps, we were all convinced that our class was a truly remarkable one. The conviction was borne out by the fact, partially at least, that during that term there was not an athletic enterprise that did not count among its leaders at least one Freshman. lt was the Freshman, Lloyd jones, who at the critical moment in that memorable color scrap of l9l7, took the initiative that animated all our followers and turned the most fierce field engagement into an undisputed victory for the ulunior-Freshman alliance. Our accomplishments were not all athletic, howeverg from the start we settled down to work and made good records in all our classes. Our lfreshman year was not all sunshine, however: we lost our Algebra and Latin teacher, Mrs. ,'Xnderson, early in the term which caused some change in the teaching force. Near the close of the term Miss Larrick also left us. This second change handicapped us somewhat but we managed to cover all of our work. There was also some change in class leadership. .Xt the close of the first semester, Thomas Porter withdrew and Lowell Spangle was elected president, Lloyd and Oressa not changing office. The second year brought to our school an entirely new faculty, Mr. Baker, Mr. Baer, Miss Kolb, and Miss Hoover. XYe were making good progress under their instruction when we received a severe set-back in the form of a six 'veeks' vacation on account of the influenza epidemic. Cressa was not with the class this year and Helen Parker was elected as our new secretary. We gained, however, one new member, Madge Puckett, who was to honor our class greatly during the year. During the last semester, much to our delight, a class in Public Speaking was introduced in which nearly the entire Sophomore class was enrolled. A bone-head spelling class was also organized under Mr. Baker during that semester. Near the close of the term several Sophomores took part in a high school Carnival, which proved to ll .l 'l'llll'llll'il , Y!'l 'lllll!ll'lll llI'lf 'l l'llllll 'lll'l 'll'lllllll'l'llll'll'i 'l'l'll'l'llllllllllllll '?,EWUllllllllll,llllll'I'lEl'l'lllllllIlllll'lllllllllillllllllllllllllll'lllll lI'llll'lllllllllllllllll4l'llIl'f.lIllllllllllllllllf
