HISTORY H f ODESTYN is the best policy in Writing this short history and description of ourselves. Writing is an art in which We claim no precedence, and We are espe- cially ill-adapted to this egotistical branch of literature. So after many dismal, blundering attempts in Which are included not a few failures, and having carefully and thoroughly 'pursued the most promising trials, which We have as carefully and thoroughly destroyed, We have de- cided that our talent lies in other than literary lines. If We could . Sing our own praises In high sounding phrases,- as can a poet, We might tell in very elegant paragraphs how it came about that We are now to become the flow the Urbana High Schoolg how that, although our nu: is small, our spirit is boundless, how it happened tha have a plurality on both the foot ball and base ball te But We recognize our inability and do not burden you these facts. If we were skilled in literary art We might dyye some victorious Junior Hshinney games. or possibly at length on a few minor virtues, but We will lay asid pen with a consciousness of a duty ill-performed. leave some material for some future historian Whose osity and zeal may lead him to narrate the past if Senior Class of 1903. -Hrsrosrax

HISTORY INCE the Sophomore class has, in the last two years, shown itself to be a model class in all respects, and an important factor in the school, I think it would be a benefit tothe other classes and to the world at large to know something of its past and of its prospects for the future. I, Before entering High School the members of this class had attended school in many different parts of the state, there was the city bred boy, the girl from the small town, and a number of sonsland daughters from the rural dis- tricts. 'A Upon entering school the genus homo division of the class was subjected to the usual' treatment, viz: bumping, pinching-better known as browning --and various other pleasures. During the first year. we were little noticed, except when someone had a criticism to offer on our greenness. Being desirous of pleasing our elders we turned red when reminded that we were green. . During this year the class became noted for its appli- cation to study, mischievousness, and the like. Some, weary of ,well doing, fell behind in the race, while the rest in due time became Sophomores. . In the Sophomore year the class organized and pro- ceeded with more energy than before, to disturb the peace of the school, to criticise the other classes, and, as a side issue, to study lessons. For these reasons the class has be- come widely known, and we only hope that its future may be as glorious as its past. , ' - Hrsromax.
