THE W. H. S. ANNUAL, 1928 35 The Elizabethan costumes and enthusiastic acting have im- printed this historical fact on our minds for all time. An interesting feature of one of our recent class meetings was a debate on a question suggested by the class U ls co- education desirable in a High School? U The affirmative argu- ments were well thought out and carried the day. Our class dues are to be spent on buying a framed picture, a handbell and vase for our classroom in the new building. We wish our successors as much fun as we have had this year.

34 Tl-IE W. H. S. ANNUAL, 1928 SEVENTH STANDARD OFFICERS Ruth Dudgeon . . Governor Esta Hermann . . Commissioner Pauline Thomas . . Secretary Marvin Keislar . . . . . Treasurer Q2 HE. Seventh Standard this year have, on the whole, done quite well in Student Government. Indeed, we are reported to have improved considerably in the matter of class- room behaviour! It is our hope that next year we may have a class room of our own which we can keep spick and span, and we are already saving money out of the class fund to buy something useful for it. At a meeting held on July 19th we drew up a code of rules for the class. Our later meetings have been devoted to a discussion of the subject of H Duty. At the beginning of the year a committee of three was appointed to plan for class entertainments. We had our share of work and fun in the High School Party, lVlay 5th, Since then we have had only one party-a class party given to us by Miss Marley. We are planning, however, to have another one some time this month. Class Spirit has been fostered by our Student Government activities. Our class plays have been entered into with zest by both boys and girls. At the High School party we contributed a play called U A Triangular Duel. Violet as the rotund and pugilistic Mr. Easthupp caused much merriment. ln August at the Bible Society entertainment we acted scenes from lVlary Johnston's book U Croatan depicting the story of Sir Walter Raleigh's Lost Colony at Roanoke.
