HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1926 It xx as the second day of September 1922 a calm peaceful autumnal day radiant with the sunsmne of hope good cheer and joy ous promise that the Dirigible ZR 4 Tolono High School lay at anchor at Tolono The same old dirigible that had carried so many passengers to safety in the Land of Great Wisdom but this particular day stands out in the history of Tolono High School Many people galed upon it in great awe and wonder for they of Success As the airship lay at anchor on this partciular September morning familiar passengers began arriving Among them was a small girl with bright blue eyes dark hair and a cheerful grin commonly known as Peggy Then Harriett a small girl with a sweet look and a kindly word for everyone Mary Adams the belle of the group noted for her popularity among the boys Howard famous for his wit LaVanche for her charm Harry for his knowledge HaLel for her giggle Opal Barnhart for her smile Opal Reifsteck for her pleasing vsays Dollie for her doll like characteristics Louise with her curls Mary Dams with her casual grin Beulah Kidd who loved to study Marguer ite who was so determined Ferne with her red hair Bernice McDonnell Philip McDonnell Arlie Lewis Everett Colee John Bialeschki Gladys John son Glen Colee Nezzie Wilson Evelyn Barnes Florence McDaniel Elmer Hollemann Russell Parry Sarah Bates and Frances MacDonald The group was very enthusiastic over the voyage and thrilled to know that it was to last four years so with hopeful hearts and smiling faces they bade their friends and parents farewell Then the large airship left the earth for a four year absence on its voyage of High School Life The tr1p was entered upon with Mr Mullins as commander and Mrs Duell as pilot The first stop was in a beautiful green country called Fresh manland and while in this country the angel of death our took us and carried away one of our fellow voyagers Opal Riefsteck, Soon we suffered other casualties while in this country Florence McDaniel Gladys Johnson Evelyn Barnes Arlie Lewis Elmer Hollemann and John Bialeschki were lost in the Jungles of Algebra and Latin and we vsere forced to leave them behind. In the summer of 1923 we were forced to land. and upon resuming our cruise three months later our old ship was abondoned for a more modern and up-to- date one along with the additional officers Miss Burnside Mr. Weber and Mr. Rodgers. Our cruise now took us to Sophomoreland where we received two new passengers, Frances Daeger and Marguerite Syers. Time sped on and it was soon time for us to start again for a distant country. We sailed along peacefully for three months and in September 1923 we landed in Junior- land. In Juniorland we picked up three new passengers Marjorie Fisher. a girl with such winning ways that she was soon loved by all her fellow passengers, Thomas Wright and Stanley Ring. While in Juniorland, Ferne and Hazel sailed away on the sea of matrimony. Here Mr, Mullins, who had been commander for two years. left to command another vessel, and Mr. Peter- son joined us as commander, with Miss Starr and Miss Ireland as assistants.
