CLASS NIGHT rnor.RAM
AT TIIK 111(211 SCHOOL
CLASS OF '20
Lonft years ago as we toddled off
To school from our mother's knee,
And took our place with other kids
As proud as we :ould be,
We gave no thought to this proud
day
Then In the future hid,
For we were small and swamped
with work.
Our brains were prone to skid.
And while the years swept swiftly
by,
Our tasks still greater grew.
We lost no time with future views
Until as Freshmen new
We caught a gliir.'pse' of this great
day
.Wb?n, full of wisdom grown
We took our leave of teachers true
To face Jhe world alone.
We bid good-bye to all our pals
Who have helped us tote this load,
And hope our paths may after
cross
On our Journey down life's road.
Harold Gavin.

STATISTICS OF THK CLASS OF '20
(By Eva Simpson.)
In spite of the easy access of sta
'.Htlcs, there are many items of in
terest about this class that have
never been brought to light. There
fore, by a system of our own we
have succeeded lii colliding these
various Items together, to place on
record for future reference. For a
class so illustrious as the Class of
1920 cannot fail to be an example of
intelligence, industry and general
good behavior to thone following.
The report Is as follows:
The class enrollment is twenty
flvo. It la not necessary to give the
names of the members but it is
enough to say that not one has for
gotten his name.
Average age, 19 years; average
weight 140 pounds; average height,
5tt feet.
Ancestry
In order to understand the un
usual brilliancy of the class, we must
mention our ancestors. As a class
we recognize Adam and Eve as our
very first ancestors. Among the
most noted ancestors are Washing
ton, Napoleon, Alexander the Great,
Caesar, Lincoln, St. Fatrick and
Noah. Katharine claims Virgil as
one of her remote grandfathers,
wfilch no doubt accounts for her skill
in translating that relative's master
piece, "The Aeneid." Some trace
their ancestry to Ireland, some to
the Teutonic irfvasion. Mildred
having lost track of her family tree,
can trace her ancestry only as far
as Antioch, and Marjorie to Heming
ford. We all realize, however, that
If the missing link were supplied,
our ancestry could be traced back to
the Ionian Itace of the Jungles.

Athletics and Amusements
During our high school days the
; boys have taken an active part in
j athletics. Some of the boys have be
I come noted football and basketball
players. Besides athletics, many
i forms of amusements are indulged
! in. Harold's favorite pastime is
holding hands, that is, not his own
hands. Madelaine's is talking. Rose
enjoys thinking, Just thinking. Hel
en's, studying; Asenath, novel read
ing and Horace likes most of all,
eating. The theater would be the
most popular form of amusement if
it were not for the price.
Education
Reasons for attending tue High
School:
There are various reasons for at
tending H. S., namely, to get out of
work at home; to have a good time;
to study Latin; rr.rental persuasion
and for the benefit of the school.
Sorry to say, there are a few in the
class who don't know why they at
tend 11. S.
Our hardest studies are Latin.
Trigonometry, English, Algebra and
Ancient History. Latin was the
hardest of all, therefore all approve
of cramming, provided the teachers
do not know it. It the Board of
Education would do away with these
branches and put In, in their place,
poetry, music, drawing, rules lu eti
quette and theater parties the H. S.
course would be much easier.
Music
Music is beneficial to a poron in
any station of life. Therefore, we
have taken great Interest In music.
Varied Is the choice of songs. Leah's
favorite song Is, "Will You Comej
Back?", and she sings It so charm
ingly that he goes back real often.
Alberta sings, "Don't Stay Away,"
and he doesn't. "Horace Bings, too,
and we have his word for It that he
never sings to the same audience
twice. j
Most of us have a good opinion of
ourselves which accounts for our
self-possessed manner, Indeed Glen
snys ho Is the only bright and In
telligent pupil In the class. John is
too modest, to give his opinion of
himself.
Yet we realize that we have many
personal weaknesses. For instance,
Wray's over-fondness for slumber.
Clinton's personal weakness Is study,
altough few people know It. Ase
nath's great falling is bashfulness,
which is unfortunate for her. But
she will outgrow that, perhaps. Le
lia says she has no personal weak
ness, but everyone knows she has a
great fondness for talking.
Future Occupations
Everyone must plan for the future,
and I find that each one of the class
has thoughtfully chosen his future
course. Helen expects to spend her
days teaching school, but we are sure
she will change her mind soon. Les
sle's greatest aim is to play the piano
like Rubenstefh. Here's to her suc
cess. Leah's wish is to get the right
one she wants. If she would tell us
who it is, we might help her. Joe
thinks life would be bliss, if the time
would come when women voted and
earned the living while men did the
cooking and house work. Madelaine
will climb to the topmost round of
the ladder of fame by writing poetry.
Russell will be a suffragette and
make stump speeches securing votes
for women. John's heart's desire Is
to inherit wealth or be a civil engi
neer, Ray's highest ambition is to be
a football player but as it is too
much work, he will be a fortune
teller. Alberta wants to be a million
aire's wife. You may look for Grace
out In the country teaching the little
folks their "A, B, C's". Lalthea
would like some day to bo governor
of Nebraska, or a kindergarten
teacher, but It Is. our opinion she
will bo a housewife.
