Class History ln the fall of IQIS there entered into the room at the upper north-east corner of St. Stephens one of the most brilliant and energetic classes of Freshmen that have ever been enrolled. We were thirty-one in number, in- cluding six students from St. Joseph's School, Teresa Warsalla, Margaret Cashman, Catherine Kraus, Margaret Kearns, Mildred Richerd and Philo- mena Noetzelg Teresa Tyson and Ruby Emery from South Parkg Charlotte Allen from Marysville, and Helen Falkert from Marine City. Wfe were all a little barbarous at first as all Freshies are but were soon brought to a civilized state by the kind instructions of our teachers. At first we occupied a portion of the High School Room and had recitations in the small two by four room downstairs. This however did not last, for one morning we were informed to pack up our treasures and depart. We found that our new quarters were next door. VVe were somewhat offended over this change, but what could we Freshmen do with three higher grades against us?

Before the term came to a close Charlotte Allen, Gertrude Causley, Helen Falkert, Clarence Fountain, Margaret McCarther and Teresa Tyson had all left us. But this year joseph Easton from Croswell was added to our num- ber. When we assembled after our vacation rest and took our place on sec- ond base. we looked in vain for three members, Anna Bryant, Catherine Kraus and Mildred Richerd. During that year we thought that we would never reach to the depths of Geometry and that June would never come and release us from our angle troubles and place us on our Final goal as Seniors- the big sixteenf' During the close of this year we lost Harvey Simpson. In September we were happily surprised to learn that We had grown to seventeen, for Margaret Byrne came in from Emmett to finish with us. The first month of our Senior year was spent in the old ninth grade room-fond
