Junior Class History

We Juniors, arrived in L.H.S. in 1923, as all Freshmen do - fresh and green. Our first year of High School was not marked by any particular incident or accident, except the unavoidable accident of acquiring knowledge. Our class gave valuable help in all activities, especially in athletics.

The class came rapidly to the front; and as the Sophomores of 1924-25, we became important factors in the routine of school life. We gained the reputation of being the best class in school; and although some of the upper classmen liked to call us "goodie-goods," we boosted our class and have tried to keep up the good name we obtained when we entered High School.

The success of Lexington High School has been partly due to the athletics, and the Juniors are proud to say that they have given men for the football field and basket-ball court that are as loyal and sportsmanlike as can be found anywhere. The girls of the Junior Class are also good sports, and are willing to do their best to put over anything for the success of the school.

The talent of the Junior Class is almost unlimited. We boast of several good readers, musicians, and singers. The dramatic talents of our class have not been tested by the public, but the first play to be presented by the Juniors of 1925-26, "When Jane Takes a Hand," promises to be "the berries."

The present Junior Class has forty-six members. If all these enroll again for next term and earnestly endeavor to reach the goal, the graduating class of 1927 will be the largest class to finish Lexington High School.

We intend to try to do our very best to further the success of our High School. We appreciate the efforts of our Principal and the Faculty and the parents, who have put so much of their lives into making our school a success and who have endeared themselves in our hearts; for as we grow older, we realize more and more every day what our school means to us. Students of Lexington High School, let's boost our school!
