But upon entering the immense structure and S. H. S. and walking down the long hall which leads to the study hall of knowledge, I'm sure many of us felt very small and unimportant and most uncertain as to Where to turn next. We were piloted into a spacious hall with several hundred desks and seats, and We all sat down nervously, as a stately gentleman, with large glasses and a studious appearance, a large book under each arm, walked into the room, stepped upon the high platform in front of us all, rang a little bell and called for order. Then the aforesaid professor, assisted by several others, laid out before us our plans of work for the year, and thus our first year in High School began. It was, indeed, an eventful year for Freshmen, and we proved ourselves to be fine entertainers and students. We then topped the year by challenging the three upper classes to a game of baseball. Thus we established ourselves as good sportsmen by defeatingour opponents. Of our brilliant and studious class Margaret Downer was elected president, with Miss Wells as sponsor to guide us through the year. 1917-This fall we entered S. H. S. once more, somewhat diminished in num- bers, but Oh! so much more intelligent and world-wise. No more blank looks and uncertain steps for us, we were no longer green . Our year was passed very wisely and profitably by all, establishing a firm foundation for our career and approaching responsibilities as Juniors. The crowning glory of our class was that one of its members, James Withrow, was chosen captain of the foot ball team of 1918, an honor seldom bestowed upon a Sophomore. 1918-Of course, in this eventful year we had many trials and tribulations, but we became very gay and enthusiastic that we were advancing into such heights of knowledge and importance. We took up dramatics, under the direction of Mr. T. C. Diers, and succeeded surprisingly well by staging one of the best Junior plays hitherto produced. Foot ball, basket ball, debating and' oratory held terrors for us no longer 5 we were coming Seniors. 1919-But where, oh, where, are the jolly Juniors? We may be seen now studiously occupied at all hours, going between classes, our brows knit in thought and carrying great arm-loads of books about with us. We look upon this year very seriously, and the problems of graduation hold their difficulties for us now. We have come through our nearly finished four years with flying colors, carrying honors in studies, athletics, dramatics and all, with Miss Halden our sponsor and a pleasing memory of our school days in S. H. S. J. C. H., '2O. SE NI OR WILL The Senior Class of 1920, being of sound mind and memory, do hereby make, publish and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills, good or bad, by us at any tin1e heretofo1'e made..
