C ollector Martha Johnson ......,.. ,...................... ..................................... H i storian Class Flower, Carnation. Class Colors, Blue and Rose. Class Motto, Im- possible is Un-American. Class Advisor, Miss Stephenson. After the initiation we became members of the Student Body, a privilege of which we are very proud. At this time, Julius Nielson and Jabez Elam, tiring of school decided to work on a farm. Jabez, however, found farming too strenuousg so he returned to school. Olive Lawson resigned as secretary and4Elizabeth Budnick resigned as treaf surer. At the following meeting Olive Lawson was elected treasurer and Eliza- beth Budnick was elected secretary. Drusilla Enos left us in the, first semester. Her loss was replaced by Blanche Hickey from Roseville. Our class presented Miss Stephenson with a silver compact at Christmas time. During the second semester our class was increased, as Philip Koeler came from Grass Valley, Carmen Pery and Sebastian Hernandez both arrived from Sun' nyvale. Olive Lawson resigned as treasurer and Evelyn Guisti was elected in her place. With the aid of Miss Stephenson, we gave a Costume Dance, March 11, which was a success financially and socially. At the present we have the honor of being the largest class in the school, with a total number of thirtyfthree. This year has been a very successful one to us, and we hope to continue our success next year, always remembering our motto: Impossible is UnfAmerican. LA PERITA 'Y l 9 2 7 Twenty-.seven
