Those that started in Miss Stough's room that were in the Senior Class at the beginning of this year were: Carl McDow, Allie Lane, Fern Garner, Myrtle Sherrill, Selma Cole and Maggie Mooreland. On September 15, 1919, forty boys and girls were classified as Freshmen of Stigler High. Freshmen are usually called green, but this class well deceived the name, for from the time they entered high school until the present date they have been well represented in all school activities. In the freshmen year they were well represented in the school activities in football, baseball, basketball and track. The second year the class was somewhat smaller for there were only thirtyqthree. But this year they took a more active part in school life. They were now getting over the excitement of being in high school. The Junior year they were getting rather dignified. Now the class had increased to thirty-four. The Senior year dawns, bright and clear on the morning of September 11, 1922, thirty-three boys and girls with happy hearts were waiting to take their places in different classes to be called the Dignified Seniors, of '23, little realizing how much work was before them. .F , Oh! the joy of being a senior was the realization of an ideal dream of all these school years. ' A few weeks after school started, thirty-three gold rings bearing the high school emblem, The Buffalo, were ordered. Something always takes the Joy out of life. Next came exams and what misery does each senior have on exams? 'P ? The class elected oilicers' Carl McDow was elected President, Russell Johnson Secretary, and Vera Logan Vice President Next came Christmas vacation but happiness will not last always, for March 4 1923, one of our most loving and most honored seniors, Selma Cole, passed away in a Muskogee hospital. It has been the aim of our instructors to help us discover ourselves and make us self reliant boys and girls On May 11 1923, thirty seniors will receive diplomas this being the largest class that has ever finished Only too soon will come the sad departure from dear old S H S and in future years sweet will be the memories of our school life in Stigler Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime And departing, leave behind us Foot-prints on the sands of time. -Peg Garner. , 1 'g ' fa I 'if 11 ' ll ' if 1 'E 1 ' 1 'llIIIIllllllllllllllIIllllllIlllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll C I S 1 1 1 111 1 u lllllllllllllllllf' Ll F H H H N N H l . 1 nun nn 1' 4 PAGI Twmrn nv: . . . . . . .
