The Army of Valor OW in the city of Waukegan on the shores of Lake Mich- igan, there grew an ar111y. Mighty in valor were tl1e menibers of tl1is l1ost, who set out to conquer the Phil- istines, Bighead, Idleness, XVise Foolishness and Envy. All these men of war that could keep rank came with per- fect heart unto the city, to make the Class of '06, as was tl1e army called, famous above all classes. Great was the fame which spread over all tl1e neighboring towns. And hearing of it, others pressed on to the Class of Honor. Now, therefore, they entered tl1e heart of the City and marched to their Castle, the High School, where they kept them- selves close. And the Philistines came, and spread themselves about the eastle, pressing elose upon the army. Then did they go out upon the two enemies, under tl1e Cap- tains Bighead and Idleness. ' So tl1e army drew nigh before the Bigheads, and they tied before them. And when the children of Idleness saw that the Bigheads were fled, they likewise lied out of the city. But the army of valor followed close upon them, and set the battle in array against them. And the mighty host destroyed the enemy and slew the cap- tains. Now did the host make merry, and they went out of the city to a hall. Feasting and dancing there was, for there was joy in the hearts of the children of the Class of '06. And it eame to pass that after the first year was expired, and the second year was begun, the spirit came upon others of another host, and they eame unto the mighty army. And they said, 'Teaee and strength be unto thee and thy helpers? And the army took them in and made them members of the band. So strengthened, the army went out upon the new enemy, the YYise Fools, who had gathered themselves up before the eas- tle whilst the army was absent. 13
