Freshman History
Class of 1923
We entered the High School in the fall of 1917. In the Junior High
School we were a class of sixty-five strong. Our membership has been
swelled to ninety members Ily boys and girls from farms of the surround-
ing communities. During our short stay in Junior High School we pre-
pared ourselves for the coming years.
At the beginning of our Freshmen year the atmosphere surrounding
us held a greenish tint. Now that has disappeared and we are a class
to be proud of. We lived up to the High School standards by entering
heartily in oratorical, debating and athletic contests. Many of our
members were very successful and those who did not win high honors
gained much experience.
We have given many parties during the past school year. At the
end of the year a class picnic was held at Charley Bluffs. Here the
classmates enjoyed many sports such as swimming, rowing and base-
ball. After these were held a picnic dinner was served. These picnics
are rare treats and are long to be remembered.
We have worked trying to do our best and therefore declare our
Freshmen year a success. We are all proud to say that we are members
of the class of 1923.
