JUNIOR CTIUITIES —— • • — —■ Ye Juniors! Our Seniordom looms before us monstrous and spectral. Gone are our emerald days and times of humble, askant glances. We are proud, lusty Juniors. Under the haughty glances that are so grudgingly bestowed upon us by the lordly Seniors, we flourish, rather than wither. They are loath to let pass the dignity and honor that accompanies their brief reign. As Freshmen we numbered thirty-six which number was decreased to thirty-three in our Sophomore year. There are now thirty-two lusty Juniors. We are justly proud of ourselves as we have made an entirely satisfactory showing in our high school career. Ever since that first eventful day we have been represented in athletics by various members, namely, Connie, Nutz, Jack, Norris, Lute and Haverly. Connie had the honor of being basket ball captain this year and president of the Boy’s Athletic Association. We have been represented in oratory by John Braun. We have promoted Evelyn McEldowney to second place declaimer and Lottie Cau-lum to prize reader. Next year is our last in W.S.H.S. It is said the last is the best, so it’s up to us to follow an established rule, and, necessarily take first in athletic, scholastic and social activities. —— • • —— JUNIOR OFFICERS President Vice-President Secfetary-Treasurer 17 Roland Norris John Braun Eldor Horstman

OUR JOURNEY ON LIFE'S HIGHWAY When first we embarked upon our caieer as timid, green Freshmen, we were amazed at the self confidence displayed by the Juniors and Seniors. To add to the agony of that first year the upper classmen labeled us with green ribbons and soon we shuddered at public observation, so intense was our fear of ridicule and the remark, “There’s a Freshman!” Soon we began to yearn to reach the Sophomoie class where we would be able to get revenge for the tricks played upon us by initiating the new Freshmen. At last we reached the goal safely and we had a pleasant, merry time. Our Sophomoie year is swiftly drawing to a close and although we yearn to enter the learned ranks of the Junior class, we leave with regret the year in which we shared the joys and sorrows of Sophomores together. However as we cannot stand still on life’s highway if we hope to continue together we must all advance, if we can, to the Junior year. As, with a sigh of regret, we look back over the cheerful, enjoyable year we are leaving behind us, we lift high our invincible banner “Forward” and face about ready to advance on life’s highway.
