E - -- - ---'-- 1 9 OLLEPAW zz '------- ------- m CLASS HISTORY It was on a bright and sunshiny day in September in the year of l909, when the original Class of 1922 embarked upon the stormy sea of school life. Perhaps one of the things which helped us through the strenuous work in the grades was the patience and capable supervision of Miss Anna Warren, who was our instructor from the time we entered the fifth grade until we completed our work there. During the fifth year we were saddened by the death of Edward Boorn. Al- though a great deal of time has elapsed since, we have always held him in loving re- membrance. After two years of diligent work we entered Seventh grade, being the first class entered under the Junior High system. At the close of this year the friendly feeling between the classes of 'Zi and '22 was established, when we invited the eighth grade to our picnic at Meyerholtz Lake. This feeling remained throughout our High School days. ln eighth grade a debating society was formed. The latter part of the year a debate was held between the eighth grade and the Freshmen class. Those representing the eighth grade were Twyla Shipman, Robert Willson, W'illiam Baker and Sharon Pease. The honorable opponents were quite dismayed when they were defeated by the little eighth graders. During the year they defeated all the higher classes but the Juniors who refused to debate them. During the winter months many parties were enjoyed. One of these, a masquer- ade, was held at the home of Alice Foster. The prize captured by Mable Edwards was a big cake donated by Bishop's restaurant. Another party was given some weeks later by Mr. and lVlrs. Henry Winter in honor of Twyla and Nliriam Shipman and Richard Winter. This event is well remembered by every one present, as each was forced to wade knee deep in snow in order to attend. At the close of the year Mr. and Nlrs. Ed. I-licklin entertained the class at a banquet in fulfillment of a promise made by Mr. Hicklin at the beginning of the year. He said he would banquet the class if everyone passed their eighth grade examinations. During all the work in the grades, the janitor, Mr. Dan Thomas, served the class faithfully, cheerfully, and in such a manner that he won the esteem and admiration of its every member, The Freshman class of 1918 began their first year as verdant as is usual on such occasions. They organized early in the year, electing William Baker as president. During the year the United States entered the world war and the class exhibited their patriotism by buying a fifty-dollar Liberty Bond. The most exciting thing which happened during the year was the day the Jackie Band was in Wapello. On this day the Freshmen were initiated. The only thing that saved them from all having to give stump speeches, was the appearance of City Marshal Nearhood, who pulled off the tormentors and saw the Freshmen safe home. ln the fall of I9I9 the Class of '22 rushed gaily into the school activities, as usual and soon reorganized. The officers for this year were: President, Max Bum- gardnerg Secretary and Treasurer, Florence Johnson. Many parties and Weiner roasts
