Chi ' § iuunr QUasa as lU ' flrrtrii by a Junior Senior —“Something seems to have cast a greenish hue about the entire building. Hark! What’s the commotion?” .Junior —“Aw, that’s one of the “raw recruits” stumbling into the assembly room.” Such were the comments that were made when the class of ' 08 entered the Wabash High School in September, 1904. Everything has to have an origin, however, and the members of the class of ’08 who are seniors now, look back over their high school career with fond recollections of the errors made at the be¬ ginning—errors which are common to freshmen. ' 08 lias won a reputation for itself in a variety of ways- in foot ball, basket ball, and the publication of the high school paper. The girl ' s basket ball team is worthy of notice on account of contests in their junior year in which they defeated the seniors. Moreover, the class has the distinction of having a member who has been captain of all the athletic teams in the W. H. S. In their sophomore year the boys distinguished themselves from the freshmen by wearing neat blue jerseys adorned with an old gold ' 08. The same year class pins were chosen with very good taste. When juniors they awarded the seniors an elaborate banquet and dance, and as “all things come to him who waits” this year they are to be the honored guests at a similar banquet. As seniors, this year the representatives of ’08 have endeavored to set a good example, and doubtless we juniors would have found their example worthy of following if we had not had ideals of our own.
