We were initiated into the good fellowship of the ,Emi school with the due pomp and ceremony, and, as with all Freshmen classes, we soon learned to enjoy our enviable position. During that year We distin- guished ourselves in the class rooms. While we were Sophomores, we became famous in athletics and in music. For this reason, and the fact that we were the largest class enrolled in W. C. H. S., we became very important in the school activities. Our Junior year was a great success. Our athletic prowess and musical-ability was greatly augmented, wand our dramatical attainments reached the limelight. We enter-- tained our companions, the Seniors, with a. banquet that was said to be the greatest in the history of W. C. H. S. - As our Senior year comes to an end, our hearts are heavy, for we cannot bear to think that we shall no longer share the joys and cares, the victories and defeats, the achievements, the anticipations, and the glory of our old school. But, when we look back over our record, we feel cheered to think of the good we have wrought, and we sincerely hope that it may serve as a lodestone for the future under-cllalssmen who may have the honor of serving our beloved W. C. H. S. Now, with the permission of my readers, I should feel relieved if I may be allowed to unburden myself of some secrets that have been bothering me for many weary months. I hope no one will bother to ask how I have been able to keep the following quotations of my classmates secret, for I could not assure you of an answer. I do hope I won't forget the opening -and closing sentences of my speech this morning. They sound so intellectual. --Corwin Hamilton. Pd like to know why Clarence R. talks to me the way he does. He's so hard to fathom, that I can't tell when he's flattering and making fun of me. -Omah Barnett. I c.an't decide whether I'll study for grand opera, attempt play-writing, or get married. --Hazel Clawson. I wonder where my compact has gone? My nose is shining right in my eyes. - Lottie Elliott. The boys here aren't half as attentive as they are at Stewardson. Thats why I don't like Windsor as well as my home town. -Opal Quigle. I don't know whether I care anything for the boys or not. I used to think I knew all about them, but I'm not so sure. -Genevieve Edwards. I don't think dark-haired boys are half as attractive as the blondes. -Iva Dean 7 Krummel. Dark, though it may seem, To me, life's one great dream. -Frances Hood. I wonder where that boy is that said I was so charming? I must find him. - Virginia Richardson. I don't knowlwhether to let one girl run my life or not. Yesterday I thought not., but today I feel as if 'I might. -Wilbur Bence. Maudine's all right, But Evelyn's better. -Eugene Jfackson. I am certainly in a terrible mixup. A boy just asked me to go to the show with him, and I accepted his invitation. Now, I've forgotten who it was. -Ruth Wilson.

I don't see why people lalways laugh .at me when I say anything. I don't think I am so funny. -Ora Fritz. People 'mtust think I consider my personal letters very highly, Since that letter of mine was posted on the bulletin board. -Marie Storm. I'd like to know why Miss Bake lets me whisper so much in English class. This is the first ,year I ever got by that easy. -Lucille Jones. My, I can't even restg I am simply rushed to death. I have just simply got to get these Physics Experiments in before the Quarter ends. -Opfal Walker. I certainly will be glad when school's out, and I won't have to come back here anymore. Maybe the boys will be more attractive where I will go next year. -Velma Rentfrow. --Russel Boling, '24.
