1 9 2 7 THE A X T L E R 1927 THE SENIOR CLASS Cukioid I’almqcmt ------- President Malcolm Petemox ------- Vie President Beatrice He llano ------- Secretary Violet Johnson - -- -- -- - Treasurer The campus of Minnehaha Academy was resplendent in the beautiful yellows and browns of late September, but inside the buildings there was a plenteous scattering of green, through the halls and in the class rooms. A new bunch of ' Fresh-ics” had arrived, ami they were as proverbially green as ever to the eyes of the austere Seniors, aspiring Juniors, and self-confident Sophomores. The first day it seemed to them quite true that they were “green,” but after that, to the disgust of the upper classmen, it was impossible for them to believe that their knowledge was meager in any line. That their wisdom had increased to a marked degree was apparent when the time came for the scholarship to be awarded. No one could make an accurate guess as to which of the many brilliant class members would receive the award. The names of many of them had appeared on the Honor Roll at the end of every period, all through the year. As Sophomores the class of ’27 turned eagerly to the task of obtaining more knowledge, but in their struggle for wisdom they did not forget to be of service to their schoolmates. One of their members was chosen to help in the formation of the 1925 “Antler,” and several of this class were on the staff of the Quiver.” The number of the class hail increased, and with this increase had come more brilliant students, so the class was still well represented on the Honor Roll. During the year in which they were Juniors they strove to develop true character. The class had a special kite rest in the athletic contests as several of its members were prominent on the basketball, baseball and track teams. In this manner they strove to show real character in their contact with students from other schools. When the Juniors entertained the departing Seniors they tried to show the appreciation they felt for the help and guidance their older school mates had given them. And now as Seniors the Class of 1927 is ready to take upon itself the task of leadership. Although not always successful in this undertaking we are trying to be shining examples to our fellow school mates in their work in classes and outside. One of our real tests as leaders is to be in the editing and publishing, with the aid of the rest of the graduating class and the Juniors, of the 1927 “Antler. Since wc have succeeded in past undertakings we sincerely hope to fulfill our aspirations in this as well. As we look back upon our four years of high school life, we remember many of the trials as well as the many joys of our careers as students. 'File tasks have not always been easy but with the faithful guidance of our teachers we have reached this milestone in our lives. We believe that through our training wc have obtained not only knowledge with which to make our way in the world about us, but Spiritual wisdom which will guide us over all the rough places of our life s pathways. —M. G. II. ’27. Fifteen
