. LESMEMOIRES ra . I 4 CLASS HISTORY In the month of September, 1926, great excitement reigned in Wilson High. The world-famed circus with all its curious monkeys, in other words the freshmen, was about to open its gates. Our barker, Mr. J. H. Dew, had his hands full trying to get the folks into the right tents. Then too, the monkeys would insist on slipping away from their keepers and running to and fro across the grounds. He finally caged every one of them, and the show was on. The second year these same monkeys were not much better behaved than the first. Somehow, even against the rules of the show, these monkeys obtained peanuts, candy, chewing gum, etc. These refreshments gave them much indi- gestion so that most of the time they were unable to perform serious acts. Nothing but monkey business seemed to be their field. The next year found the circus folks back at their old standby, Wilson High. They were still young enough to cause their keepers many trying hours, because of their uncanny love of chewing gum. The class had been promoted to the side show. Curious folks came to watch them perform at the Operetta and at the Junior Hop. Some were stuck in the mud and so could not get much closer to their goal-the Big Top. Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the all important year-one thousand nine hundred and thirty-one. In the three rings of this Big Top you will see the biggest performance in this show now starting. So bellowed the class barker. This year was well known as a period of depression, but people managed to pay for Come Out of the Kitchen, The Tea House of Sing Lo, The Echo , and the Les Nlemoiresn. In the right ring the seniors were seen con- ducting campaigns , giving plays, attending Proms, and rushing towards a great white building. Finally, eVeryone's attention was centered on the great and solemn act going on in the middle ring-graduation! This was the great performance that distinguished the Wilson Circus. Instead of the usual laugh- ter, one could occasionally hear a sob. Long may such circuses live in your halls, dear Alma Mater!
