, l'HE P HOG RESSUSH HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '28 It seems a long, long time ago since that bright and peaceful September Morn- ing when we first presented ourselves at the door of this splendid institution. Many people gazed in wonder at the thirteen charming young ladies and nine bold and dashing young gentlemen as they started on the road for The Land of Great Wisdom. At first each teacher seemed more severe than each of the others and tried to see how unbearable he could make life for the timid Freshies. After a while-we learned that it was no personal enmity, but what they called discipline. We were told that was a necessity in every high school course, but we would have liked this new world better had that part of the curriculum been left out. ' .4 ,v After we became acquainted with the teachers and their exquisite manners, we loved them all, and our affections have not ceased to this day. Our introduction to the teachers was mild compared with .our experience with the upper classmen. Early in our Freshmen year, we were officially received into the high school by an initiation party given by the upper classmen of the school. We were then made true members of the high school, and the upper classmen didn't seem like such a strange, wild crowd as before. This first year our class loyally supported W. H. S. We were represented in the music, athletics,and scholarship events of the school. With. what a different air we entered high school as proud sophomores to that of the preceding year. Our class continued its loyal support of W. H. S. and won many triumphs as sophomores. ' As we entered our Junior year the world seemed to expand and our greatness enlarged in our own estimation. We entered all activities of the school and won great laurels. The crowning event of the year was the Junior-Senior banquet at which we acted as hosts to the seniors. ' With what pride and joy we entered high school as seniors! How different things seemed from that of three years before! We now had a feeling of personal responsibility and wanted to make the most of every moment, since we were on the last lap of the journey that 'would place us Out of School Life into Life's School. In many ways our Senior year has been verv' successful. Mrs. Sutherland, our class sponsor for two years. coached the play Professor Pepp which was our first play. Members of our class were prominent members of musical. athletic and scholastic organizations. We are the second class that has published a year book. As the years went by our members decreased until the final list of those who are to receive the honors of graduation number seventeen. We attribute our success in high school not only to ourselves, but to our teachers who have so carefully watched over and encouraged us, more especially to Mrs. Sutherland, our class sponsor, and Miss McLindon who has proved herself a true friend to all. Mrs. Sutherland and Miss McLindon have been with us all four years of our high school life. We are about to go out in the wide world with those who are doing the use- ful things. Let us not weary in well doing, for in due season we shall reap our reward. - 1928
