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.

X FRESHMAN CLASS PAUL D. ELLIS, President. HELEN H. STUART, Sec'y and Treas. CLASS COLORS Red and Green. HISTORY s I , ONSIDERING that We are only Freshmen, a class history is something out of the ordinary for us, but as nothing succeeds likepsuccess, I will endeavor to tell you something of our class. During the first Week of school we received the usual initiations, and also since then We have received the Worst of the jokes and knocks. While still retaining a tinge of green, 'We Will soon be through our first yearvand on a smoother road to our distination. D While not claiming to be in the front rank in the mat- 4 l I K, l ter of brains and Wit, We hope in the course of two or three years to attain much knowledge, and perhaps more of it than those Who have gone before us. We have representatives on the base ball and foot ball teams, and during our High School course hope to turn our many athletes Who Will succeed in establishing the prestige of the Red and White to a point never attained before. Remembering that this is our first production for our interested readers, We will not trouble you with any more remarks, but ask that We be not judged too harshly. ' - HISTORIAN.
