Such exclamations were frequently heard as we began our career as Freshmen in Tamaqua High. We were bullied and shunned by the upper classmen, but bore these insults heroically with the thought that our turn was gradually coming. One of the outstanding events of our Freshmen Year was the parade on Armistice Day. We were very conspicuous with our green ties, ribbons, and dolls in our hands. At last came our deliverance. We were now the mighty Sophs-proud and sophisti- cated! We were termed the boldest class in High School. Of special notice was the winning of the inter-class championship in basketball, the participation in the county spelling bee, the numerous sleigh-riding parties, and in the spring the mounting of Biology Specimens. Our status as a class of real importance was not firmly established until our junior Year. We were no longer persons of such little influence. As Upper Classmen we lorded it over the lowly Sophs and the more lowly Frosh. At last we entered the inner sanctum of our Alma Mater, we were now all seated in the main room. This year was marked by the large amount of work we accomplished. There were class ollicers to be elected, pennants and rings to be selected, and our studies-Latin, Shorthand, French, Bookkeeping and Chemistry, which for a time held our undivided attention because of the new nature of the work. And then our Class Play was put over big and we were on our way to Washington as we supposed! In the Interclass Track meet we easily ian lg- 1 9 V 7' i, f' 5 an ! lpi' FQ- Page Tzumzly-scum:

And then at last the day came for the Seniors to pass on and join the Alumni and for us to take our dignified places as Seniors. Seniors! Our destined goal! We were now in the last stage of our High School career. Never was there shown so much enthusiasm in athletic events as in this year. No Washington Trip came to us as a blow, but the decision to put out a bigger and better year book lessened and finally erased all disappointment. Work on the Sphinx, the class play and the numerous other senior activities made the days fly and the time has come to begin looking forward to Commencement. Preparation for this event awakens us to the fact that our High School days are drawing to a close. We feel the thrill of a battle won, and yet a pang of regret that these happy days are ending.
