We, the Seniors Deep problems were to be solved by the class of 1940 as we met for our first legislative session, with Donald Johnston acting as Speaker of the House Our 77 representatives were sponsored by Miss DeVoe, and we elected for our Class Mother, Mrs. Rath. Harold Reichert opened the session of our second term, with Miss DeVoe f erving again as Sponsor, and Mrs. Moberg, Class Mother. Our congressional records show that no outstanding events occurred in our first two terms, bi t mighty ideas were being expounded. Our third term was more complicated, but the class was also more experienced. Bernice Prince was elected to preside over the House for this term. The representatives chose Miss Peterson to sponsor them. Mrs. Moberg was again elected to serve as Class Mother. The class play “Polishing Papa,” revealed some outstanding dramatic abilities. To entertain th • mighty Seniors of last year, we gave a banquet, and used as our theme, a circus. This was a success with which we were proud to close our th'rd term Dick O'Neal opened the fourth and last session. Miss Fortna was selected to sponsor us, and for the third year, Mrs. Moberg was elected Class Mother. Throughout the last term, our ideas crystallized and we solved our problems, one by one. The class chose as its colors. Royal Blue and White. These were to represent qualities of purity and truthfulness. Work on the annual was started at the beginning of the second semester. Deep study and much hard work were required to make this annual bigger and better than ever before. The class sponsored several projects in order to finance publication of an annual in 1940. The cast for the class play, Seven Sisters,” was selected' and work on the play was started in April. There were whispers in the “House” as Sneak Day approached, for we Seniors had been looking forward to this for four years. Because of the many tasks that still lie ahead, we have chosen as our motto “Finished—Yet Beginning.”

During the year she accepted a position in Iowa and Mr. Poulson was our adviser the remainder of the term. Mrs. Doher served as our Class Mother throughout the year. As Juniors, we had .39 girls and 26 bovs—a representation of 65—with Miss Barta as Sponsor and Mrs. Moore as our able Class Mother. Our class play, “Tons of Money, was presented in November and received many compliments. We received our class rings just after Christmas.

All in all, we have had a successful year as Juniors, and are eagerly awaiting the time—next year—when we will be the graduating class.
