THE HISTORY OF THE EIGHTH GRADE ■J'ORTY pupils of the Sixth Grade entered the Junior High School in September, Tj 1921. We were a jolly, laughing bunch. Nothing seemed to bother us, but we soon found out that we would never get through the world laughing. Nevertheless, we survived the Seventh Grade and are all studying with great diligence, hoping to enter Senior High with our classmates. The Equinox Society won the contest last year with the help of the Seventh Grade, but the Oddians are planning to defeat the Equinox this time. THE HISTORY OF THE SEVENTH GRADE 3N SEPTEMBER. 1922, the best grade in the history of the school entered the Wayzata Junior High. Our Class numbers thirty. Not all of its members are residents of Wayzata, but, recognizing the excellence of our school, some have come from neighboring towns to attend this institution. We feel already the responsibility toward its support and try to show it by ever-increasing respect to our superintendent and teachers, by careful study of our lessons, clean sportsmanship in all athletics, and loyalty to the school. The Equinox and Oddian Societies welcomed us as new members. There was great excitement when each drew the lot which cast him into the society to which he will belong during his sojourn through the Junior High. We will earnestly endeavor to keep the standards of these societies high and to help them to become a strong factor in the school. We have participated in public programs and two of our members have joined the school orchestra. Ruby Berg won the Lake District prize for the best composition in the “Better Homes Contest. Our “Toboggan Party and Picnic Supper” have gone on record as being a successful social function. We hope to have other social gatherings before the year is over.

HISTORY OF THE FRESHMAN CLASS HE schoolhouse on the hill was again awakened from its heavy summer slumber, for we, the brilliant Freshmen, came to astonish the world with our superior mentality. At the beginning of this first semester, high school life passed smoothly, but when we received our report cards, we must admit there was a break in that calm which resulted in a gnawing and gnashing of teeth. We are the better for that break because there is a little studying going on, which was not thought necessary before. One thing we shall always remember is the carnival. Just think how many of us Freshmen took part in it, and how many of us came out so unsurpassingly well in raising money for the school! It was here that Henry Hyberg showed his great ability as a wild man. Another thing in which we excelled was showing our parents how bright we were. Oh, they were cjuite taken off their feet when they saw the things made by the sewing class, the things made by the Manual Training class, when they watched the girls do their gymnastics and the boys do their acrobatic stunts, and when one of the English classes recited. Ah, we are the most brilliant, best looking, most courteous class ever known in Wayzata or there-a-bouts. Undoubtedly, several pages of history will be devoted to us in later years. M. B.
