We continued our work through the first semester with much pleasure. The final examinations and mid-year promotion came. We lost fifteen of our number, who were in the A class and were promoted to 8th grade. But, nevertheless, we have twenty more sent on to us from the sixth grade, thus making our number thirty-seven. The work in the junior high school is much more interesting to us as we have six different teachers and are permitted to take domestic science and manual training, both of which are instructive and entertaining. On March 3, 1921, we organized our class with the following officers: Belle Cheadle, president: Guilford McGlone secretary-treasurer; Susie Middler. class poet; Belle Cheadle, historian and Miss Watkins, class teacher- Our class colors are crimson and gold. Our class flower, crimson rose and our motto, “Let us be helpers.” Please accept this offering from the wearers of the crimson and gold The Historian Twenty
