The import- ance of this history remains to be seen: yet it is recorded with the high hope that the future will reveal the deeper significance of the events recorded here. In the third year of the founding of the Wayne County high school, on Monday September 15 in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred twenty-four our class entered as freshmen. The new building Cwhich we believed to be built especially for usj had been completed. Early that Monday morning high school pupils might be seen carrying chairs and other pieces of school equipment from the old combination store and dwelling house used as a high school building during the first two years to th? new building. The freshmen were working harder than any of the others because they were so eager to begin their duties as high school pupils. . No class advisers were appointed for us that year. Is it possible that such ex- traordinary children had no need of advice or advisers. Freshmen were not permitted to take partin any social activities that year, and it seemed an eternity to us before the final examinations. Perhaps if the freshmen had studied harder, time would have pasied more quickly and more of them would have been better represented among the stars of the school. All who were alive and had not married came back to be sophomores in the fall of 1925. Our former principal was missed but the new board of directors furnished us with a new one who proved to be very efficient. Our class advisers that year were Mfss Margaret Whittle and Mr. McClure. Many pleasant and exciting things happened during our junior year. Misa Peterson and Mr. Garrison were appointed our advisers. The outstanding events of the year were a Hallowe'en party in honor of the football boys, a series of three one' act plays, The Neighbors , Trying Them Out and The Revolt and the first Junior-Senior Banquet in the history of the school. Our officers for the year were: Lola Smith, President: Hezekiah Adkins, Vice President, and Audrey Watts, Secretarv- Treasurer. Finally the freshmen of 1924 have become the dignified seniors Qexcept when dignity is forgottenj of l928. It seems to us that being a senior is the most difiicult, the most important and the most helpless situation in the whole world, for it's Seniors should do this and Seniors should not do that till some of our members have seriously proposed that we change our name, and we shall after commencement, to honored alumni, provided there are no mishaps. Our class has contributed to all the extra-curricular activities of the school in- cluding boys' and girls' basketball, football, plays, parties, agriculture and literary teams andthe orchestra. .
