We all know of your ability in the classroom, but it is not for this alone; it’s for those little things,—the fine Christian example, the unfailing sympathy, the understanding counsel and advice, the hours and hours of tireless work and energy that have been spent on each splendid program and on each edition of the Rainier Vista which you have helped to grow into existence,—for these and many other reasons we are proud to dedicate this, the 1947 RAINIER VISTA to you, Mrs. A. J. Olson. Lovingly, The Associated Students of Auburn Academy eJicahon

ormiior ¥ And as we start to recount the interests and the scenes which this year has imprinted on our minds we begin with that absorbing theme of the new dormi¬ tory for girls. This is, after all, our big interest and our big need. Last year our A. S. B. project was toward this building; this year our eyes are turned toward the few people who are carrying the heavy responsibility of raising the funds to complete it, and of seeing the building finished. These men are our board members: Don H. Spillman, chairman of the board; A. J. Olson, secretary, D. L. Olson, M. G. Dealy, A. J. Gordon, J. L. Osborne, A. E. Green, Clyde Nelson, V. R. Jewett, Cree Sandefur. These men, we realize, bear a heavy burden for its completion. We want them to know that we appreciate their interest in the young people of the Washington Conference. We realize the fact that if these men were not working untiringly to discharge this heavy responsibility toward us, as the young people in need, and if we should fail to back them up, it could still be possible that this great need would not be filled. But they are seeing it through, and we will back them, and we do thank them! The new dormitory is a three story building 240 feet long and 40 feet wide. The ground floor will house the cafeteria service consisting of modern kitchen, cold storage and freezing room, serving room and dining room, seating over 300 students. There will also be a Rose Room or banquet hall which can be used for faculty, senior and junior as well as other class events. The ground floor will also have a worship room seating about 170 girls, as well as ping pong room and girls’ private laundry. The massive appearing front entrance leads to the upper floor or dormi¬ tory section of this building. There will be 65 rooms for 110 girls. The first of these two floors will be a well planned parlor, music room and a reading room in one end. The fireplace will add a “homey” touch to the parlor and the two large plate glass windows will afford an unusual and unsurpassed view of Mt. Rainier. On the same floor are located the dean’s apartment, the guest room and the matron’s suite as well as the medical room.
