The Freshmen ONT judge people by their looks, for the Freshmen of this year are not half as bad as the picture that represents them. The grammer schools of 1907 and 08 brought the South High something unexpected. Even the usual sarcasm of the obnoxious Seniors was ignored and we entered as though it were nothing unusual to be doing so. How eagerly we listened to every word that was uttered, and were finally conducted to our future abodes. Some of us stopped at Weber Junction and were given courage by its pleasant countenance, while others went on to Squyer Station, and a few stayed in the Fish Pond. Keeping in mind the old proverb that perfection is no trifle, we started the right path with only an occasional one being led astray by their elder classmates, much to their amusement, for of course we all know they are inclined to be a little jealous. When we received our first monthly reports most of us could boast of doubles. Of course some could not obtain such high honors but have been steadily advancing toward the front. We devoured Greek Mythology with gulping throats, but we went over it quite safely and hope the coming ones will not choke over it. For awhile Algebra was the only giant in our pathway, but we managed to pass him with a sigh of relief. The Freshmen have been going fast, for Algebra means ambition, Drawing stands for diligence, English represents elegance, and Latin is loyalty. Among us there are some very brilliant debators, one being Robert Moore, our Daniel Webster of the day. We can also boast of Francis Savage, who will some day be the world’s champion at football. The Freshmen now number about three hundred and seventy-two. With these prominent members, not excluding the more bashful ones, we hope to attain greater honors than have ever been won by South High before. COMMITTEE Pas:e twelve
