 Our class is one of the largest in the history of the Seward school for We number eight. We are some class. Our combined height is 35 feet, Thel- ma making most of that, Our total grain measure is12 3 inches, and at that we only had one swellhead in the class. We did not graduate last year on account of measles. We had to wait to finish our work this year. We entered this fah with five, Thelma, Helen. Mary, Robert and myself, and now we have another pupil. Dorothea Woolley. Robert went away and here | am alone again. l wall have to get l am alone again. l will have to get boys to help me. There is nothing but girls all around me.

 The girls have got up a club. l don't know what they do there for they haven't asked me to join. They can't find a name for it but l would suggest the Giggly Gigglers or the Babbling Babblers.
 As a class we are very patriotic. We have shown our patriotism in our choice of our class colors which are, "Red, white and blue" Our class mot to is Stand by your colors.' Our class poem is as follows: Stand by your color, classmates all, Tis a glorious motto for life. Be ready to answer your country's

We went to the little school on the hill until Christmas. By that time the new schOo. was finished. There were three in my class that year Elizabeth Towey having been added. She also had Co look down to see me. Jimmie was the artist of the school and he spent most of his time draw ing pictures of Elizabeth. ] was very glad to have a new pupil in my class but Jimmie was still gIadder.
 The next year another pupil was added to my class, Percy DOOlitt.e. He was about my size and we made a good team. Neither one of us seem ed Co get along very well in English. So we made au agreement. It was that ] would help him and he would help me. He couldn't help me and ] couldn't help him, SO we didn't get along very well.
 About the middle of the year Jim mic and Elizabeth went into the eighth grade They thought they were too big Co be in the seventh grade. That left Percy and me alone. Percy didn't like to work and he was sorry when Jimmie and Elizabeth left us, for our reCitations would be long er when there were only two in the class. At the end of the year Jimmie and Elizabeth graduated and ] passed into the eighth grade.
 Now comes the big year when the class is the largest for the seventL and eighth grades are put together. Percy left and l was alone for the first part oi the year. But the sev- enth grade wanted to do two years work in one.

There were only two in my class, Jimmie Hawkins and myself Jimmie had to look down Go see me for l was the smallest one in school. All the chil- dren looked at me as # was cir GUS freak. ] had a small start but from small beginnings great things sometimes grow.
 The seats were wide and two chil- dren sat in one seat. The school was old-fashioned and small The children had to buy their own books. At the end of the year when schoO, was out the children gave a program at the church. The teacher and the children sat up in front. Helen ROmig who was in the seventh grade spoke a poem. She left out the main part but kept right on going and nobody knew that anything vas wrong. l understand the art she began culti- vating so young in life still stands her in good stead.
