On the morning of September 9, 1918, thirty three eager and excited prospective Freshmen, just as the sun peeped over the eastern horizon, trugded nervously, yet an- xiously toward the High School building which was to be their new field of learning. 1 Those who enrolled for the Freshman day were Gordon Merrick, Forest Carpenter, Clarence Griffin, Clarence Hautzenrader, Herbert Abel, John Blevins, Mabel Charles, Gaylord DeHart, Paralee Elder, Elsie Elwood.

After a rew days we had become acquainted with the new routine of things and to the faculty, consisting of, Florence Lawson, Supt. Charles Marble Jr., Prin. Ethel Hunt- zinger, .Ada Potts, and W. C. Mulvaney. - Our first year was uneventful except for the usual number of parties and wiene roasts. Before the close of the year several of our class had left, being unable for var- ious reasons to finish their first year. ' ' - .Q One ,morning shortly after schoollstarted we elected the following officers, Pres. Katherine Gsell, V. P. Adolph Kloeppel, and Sec. Treas. Clarence Hautzenrader. Four boys from our class entered the county track meet and five of our students, the music contest. - 4, , Twenty-six of our number survived the Freshman year and came together again Sophomores. After the football games, in which some of our number participated our time was more than full with the inter class contests, in one of which we were victorious, winning the vocal solo. , The following officers served: Pres. Adolph Kloeppel, V. P. Ellendean Wynkoop, Sec-Treas. Mabel Charles, Reporter, Marie Fahey. The members of our faculty were, W. O. Mulvaney, Supt. Chas. Marble, Jr., Prin., D. W. Banie, Miss Ethel Huntzinzer, Miss Viola Malm, Miss Edra Lake, and Miss Sarah Wynkoop. From the class history we extract the following. concerning our first party of the year, We had to go home in the mud but we had such a good time we didn't mind such a small thing. A royal feast was given by the D. S. girls in the spring, for the M. T. class and the boys later returned the favor. Our greatest success of this year was thc result of the excellent training that we gave the Freshmen. In our Junior year, John Blevins and James Kloeppel acted as pres'dent. Edward Morgan as V. P. and Herbert Abel as Sec- Treas. We occupied a very important posi- tion in school life, taking three first places in the class contests, and five of our class being foot ball regulars. f The Junior box social, the biggest event of this kind ever held in Troy, netted over one hundred dollars. This was used in entertaining- the Seniors with a banquet at the M. E. Church,fo1lowed by a party at the Merrick residence. Seven of our boys were in the track meet and three girls in the literary-musical contest, a junior winning first place in tthe essay. and two Juniors taking parts in the six voice glee club which also won first place. Trov captured all first places except twoj Seven Juniors had leading parts in ACollege Town, the school play, which was so much of a success that it was repeated in Bendena. Our faculty was comprised of W. O. Mulvaney, Chas. Marble Jr., D. W. Banie, L..P. Whitehead, Miss Viola Malm, Miss Maude Duncan, Miss Myrtle Hunter, and Miss Rachel McKoy. , . Page 14

We got down to business the second day, electing Edward Morgan Pres., James Kloeppel V. P., Hazel Waters Treas., and Mabel Charles Secretary. From the beginning school activities have been numerous, especially for the Nor- mal Training students. There were five mebers ofthe debating teams, seven onthe an- nual staff, and six on the Trumpet staff. The regular football team was wholly a Senior organization. Seven girls and 'three boys were in the Glee Clubs, with two boys and two girls members of the quartettes. The Senior play, given on April 11, was a decided success. ' ' Now that our High School life is coming 'to a close, our-class motto, Finished- Yet Beginning fs becoming an actuality. Fare 'the well, our Alma Mater. - A ' U g Hazel M. Waters. +A, .

On being questioned as to what he did with the other nickel, he replied, I spent theem, father. This happened four successive Saturday nights. On the fifth night his father said, What you been doing, Clarence, keeping a woman? ' A wise old girl is Katherine Gsell. The more she learns. the less she'll tell. And so, of course. the sequel shows The less she tells, the more she knows. Rev. You know him freturning thanksj, Bless this food for its intended use. ,Distant voice over phone, 'Tm sorry, but I can't, I've got a date. Did you ever notice this, when a fellow steals a kiss, From a righteous little maiden, calm and meek, That her scriptural training shows, in not turning up her nose, But just by turning round the other cheek.
