SbuckS Glass bong We took the biggest man in all this school And we made him presidentg We took the pick of all the boys and girls, Far away and resident 5 They make the finest class I've known, Wherever I've roamed. Nothing there is lacking, Not even backing From the teachers to the study room. And then we chose a sponsor all our own, To keep us from all harmg She will watch our course as we progress, The best class at the farm. We have plenty of muscle and of brawn, We win victories all season longg Then cheer you every lad and lass For the 1918 Class! , Glass Zlaistnrp On the morning of October 12, 1914, a dull green spot was seen on the campus. At first it was thought to be a new variety of plant, but closer investigation revealed the fact that it was the new Freshman class, the Class of '18. In order to conform to all traditions and maintain all precedents we retained our verdant hue thruout the year. We cheerfully sacrificed our interests to the upperclassmen whenever occasion demanded Cas in the inter-class basketball gamesj, but in our own sphere we were very active. We carried out successfully several parties, thus becoming acquainted with each other and sowing the seed of future class unity. Among other achievements we dismissed a dairy class with the aid of a bent pin, and were the first Freshman class to give a class play. As Sophomores we began to lose some of our verdure, but only to reveal the buds from which were to spring the blossoms of class accomplishment. Four football A's were awarded members of the Class of '18 in the 1915 season. Our Sophomore banquet was the first of its kind in the school and was only one of the many things which went to show our originality as a class. ' Thus from a humble beginning we have grown and blossomed as the rose until now as a Junior class we have a record of which we feel proud. Six football A's went to Juniors. Four basketball A's went to Juniors. A Junior is captain of the basketball team. The Juniors won in the Olympics. More than half the working force of both literary societies is made up of Juniors. In fact there are more 1918 Juniors in the limelight of school activities than of any Junior class in the history of the school. We are the Hrst class in school to adopt a constitution and set of by-laws as Juniors, fthe other classes adopted theirs as Sophomoresb the first class to dare lock an instructor out of the room, the first class to take a hayrack ride Cand incidentally hog-tie an intruding underclassmanl, and we are the last class to back down on anything we start. Truly we are a great class and one which lives up to its motto: Deeds-not Dreams.
