Reporter. Dictator.
A history consists of tae"actions and
doings of mankind, which are to he
kept as an unbroken chain to be handed
down to the coming ages. This chain
would surely be incomplete if the link
which the history of our class forms
was left unnoticed. In looking over
the events of the past which relate to
the history of our class, if I could only
have found some heroic deed accomplished, or some high ambition realized, what a pleasure it would be to
sound the praises of the author or possessor; hut instead of this as historian
of the class I am compelled to forego
this pleasure, for the lives of all have
been very uneventful. Our only hero
appeared at the time the school house
caught lire, and he, who is usually so
calm and self-possessed, was seen running down stairs without hat or books
and with a tooth-pick firmly clasped in
his hand. Many pleasant times have
we had during the four years passed in
the high school: among these the evenings spent at the homes ofthe different
students are always to be remembered
with pleasure. The social and entertainments given by the school, though
few in number, have always been pleasant, and the library cause, for which
we have been so anxious, has succeeded
well. Another pleasant event of our
school life was the German play given
by the German class of '88, under the
direction of Miss DePuy. This took
much time and, judging from appearances, was a success. The gentlemen
of our class distinguished themselves
as actors in the play called "The Heroic Dutchman of '76" which was given
in this hall during the winter term of
!S9. Nor must we over-look Mag Day.
After appropriate exercises in the hall
we assembled in front of the school
building and there, after singing with
great enthusiasm a national song, we
raised the flag of our country. Mr.
Jewett, our janitor, has been a staunch
friend of the class. He entered upon
his duties twelve years ago, at which
time some of the members of this class
commenced their school life. He says
that he has been waiting all these years
to graduate with us and thinks that he
should have been class historian. We
do not doubt that he could give a more
accurate of our actions than we would
wish to have given. Only once lias
death entered our ranks. James Williams, who was a member of our class
two years ago, was taken with dreaded
disease consumption. After" a few
weeks illness, on the 19th of April, "God
called him and our ranks were broken.''
We organized as a class last October,
electing Fred Webb president, Will,
Collum treasurer, and Miss Anna Cobb
secretary. We have held our meetings
every fourth week. They have been
very interesting and though many
different opinions and wishes were expressed they were always settled satisfactorily. From September until April
tho class was represented in The Saline Observer by the school column.
This was conducted by the members of
the class with the assistance of Prof.
Hendershot.
As every class history consists of the
important facts, such as the size of
shoes, color of eyes, age, height, etc., I
can but follow in the same line. The
aggregate weight of the class is l,0ifl
pounds. The average weight of ladies
is 120, of gentlemen 145. The height
is thirty-eight feet, two inches. One
gentleman is six feet, one inch, the
other is five feet, five inches, at his.
tallest. The tallest lady, who is the
baby, is five feet, seven inches. The
combined age of the class is 150 years.
The aged member is twenty-one years
old; the youngest ia seventeen.
Three of the ladies are eighteen, oue
nineteen and one twenty. Tho size of
hats worn by the gentlemen are six and
seveu-eighth aud seven and one-eigth.
The ladies are unable to tell the size of
theirs but say that they usually get ono
that fits if such is to ba found. Average size of ladies' shoe is three.   Aver-
first vote for the democratic party last
spring. The ladies are not personally
interested in politics, but all favor
woman's rights and oppose free trade.
After much coaxing and imploring
the historian has succeeded in obtain-
the answers to a series of questions
relating to the manner in which the
past life has been spent, the intentions
concerning the future, the greatest
failing, also the greatest virtue and
highest ambition of each member of
the class. One young lady went so far
as to say that her highest ambition was
to get married. We admire her frankness, and do not doubt that soon her
fondest hopes may be realized. I will
now give a brief sketch of each life:
The president during his school life
has been a great traveler, although he
has not crossed the ocean and viewed
the wonders of the old world yet he
has traveled, during the five years that
hehas attended our school, 10,000 miles.
Mostly between Pittsfield junction and
Saline. As we have not Hurd the distance traveled in other directions we
will make no mention of it.
The orator was born in Ganandaguia,
N. Y. Came to Michigan when quite
small, even smaller than he is now.
He is very studious. His greatest desire and highest ambition is to be a
professor in some university. May
success attend his efforts.
The elocutionist when not attending
school has passed her life on a farm.
In giving account of herself she says,
that she would prefer city life to town
life; wears a hat size of her head and
finds that her greatest failing is that
she is never where she ought to be.
She has no profession that she expects
to follow, but will always remain under
paternal roof.
The first essayist was born in Canada,
but could not tell the place until she
had asked her mother. She is the
daughter of a carpenter. Has always
lead a very quiet life. She has a great
desire to play up lady but expects to
wash dishes. Her favorite study is
geometry, especially the angles.
The second essayist was born on a
farm and prefers country life. She
considers her greatest failing to be
"putting off 'till to-morrow what should
be done to-day."' Claims that her
future is to be spent as being a well
digger's assistant. .What can she mean
by this but to be his' wife. We would
advise her to be careful as to her choice
for she may have to furnish the bread
while the well digger is getting the
water.
The valedictorian is a farmer's
daughter. Has attended our school
five years. When asked about her
future she replied that her present occupation was churning but was undecided about the future, She does not
give a very glowing account of herself
for she says that her failings are too
numerous to mention and her virtues
none.
The prophetess has always lived on
a farm but thinks that she would prefer
city life. Her-future occupation will
be house work if she can't get out of it.
Her highest ambition is painting.
And now one glance at the future. We
think there is a good chance for scenery painting among the Woods and
Hills of Lodi Plains and if she carries
out her desire she will be very near
Bliss.
The class of "90 has met for disband-
ment. It is with pleasure and yet
sorrow for we know that we have passed
many pleasant hours with our friends
and studies that we can never recall.
This night means the beginning of a
hew life, The future is yet to be made
known to us. We may enter different
schools and form new acquaintances yet
we ean never forget the pleasant hours
! passed at the Saline high school.
