CLASS OF '41 April I3, 1938 The Freshman Class - I I Tipton High School mi Tipton, Indiana Dear Freshies: It's really awfully hard for a Senior Class to think of something constructive to say to a group of Freshies. You're a bit too young to appreciate whatever we might be able to give you in the way of advice. Thinking the matter over seriously, there's only one really outstanding thing about you, yet. You've contributed only one important thing to the welfare of the world. And that's yourigreat ability to amuse the upperclassmen We can still think back to last September and roll on the floor with laughter. You came to us from Junior High-just as bewildered a bunch as it haslever been our luck to initiate. The first day after you succeeded in finding the Assembly, you came in the door and looked for a seat and as there weren't any in the back of the room, you stood up, rather than walk clear to the front. When a few obliging Seniors escorted you to a seat, the wan smile you gave us was proof of your shaking knees. Then it fell theduty of the Seniors to help you with your registration. Speaking of hard work, it was worse than one of Mr. Stemen's Physics tests. You weren't just sure where you were or why. We asked what course you were going to take. Maybe we were rushing things a little, because you hadn't the slightest idea. The old joke about a Freshie never knowing where he is certainly held true for your class. For two weeks after school started you would pop into Mr. Hiatt's Chemistry Lab and ask where the English room was? Our laughter didn't seem to make you angry. It only made the look on your faces a little more crest-fallen. And the poor teachers had a terrible time for the first few weeks trying to find anyone brave enough to raise his hand in answer to a question. Yes, indeed, you were a sorry bunch, but nine months of school seem to have sand-papered most of your eccentricities and polished those good points with which you are endowed. In fact, we might even go so far as to say you've definitely improved and now it's getting harder and harder to look over the Assembly and dis- tinguish you from an upperclassman. Well, Freshies, we congratulate you for whatever progress you have made along the road to higher learning, We wish you all kinds of luckf--soupy tests ,A grades, State Championships, and when you're Seniors, an Annual that goes to press on time.

We struggled, we sweat, we labored, To make our grades all goody And when we got report cards, We knew just where we stood, Our first three years of higlrfiiclmool Passed by, it seemed so fast! And when this year we started, We knew 'twould be our last. We earnestly labored for our grades, And seldom tood in doubtg ' We believed nothing was too hard, But search would bring it out. We do not wish to have you think That learning's been our sole employ, For with our faculty and friends We've had a lot of joy. - -Ruby Cloe. .........Twaunette Peters Fauniel Schwyhart 3' I s
