Gllaaz I-Iintnrg As a history always begins with an ac- count of the first happenings, we will be- gin with the time, twelve years ago, when we entered upon our journey of hardships and pleasure of school life. Not more than five or six of our class of twenty-four have enjoyed together the twelve years of school life in St. Edward. Through the ups and downs of the grades we finally reached the grammar room and under the skill and effort of Miss Hehnke we became better and wiser students, and we owe to her a great deal of credit for our later achievements. In the year of 1920 a group of 28 green and awkward, but ambitious freshman entered the doors of high school. The first thing notable was the fact that when the sponsors were announced we did not cheer, but in the following years, as our sponsor, Miss Scriven, was re-assigned to us, we redeemed ourselves by correcting the short-coming of our Freshman days. It is useless to try to name the numer- ous activities in which the class of '24 through different contests, many fourth and half holidays. It was the class of '24 that introduced the new ideas, always coming out on top in every undertaking. Our achievements as Sophomores were unusual, as all Declamatory winners and two members of the debating team were from our ranks. We shall never forget the fourth h-oli- day taken at Woodville on Hallowe'en. Will the Juniors ever forget the half holi- day spent at Fullerton? Wasn't it the Junior class that put in full swing the first Junior play ever given in the history of S. E. H. S? The Beaver is our record achieve- ment and one of the brightest ideas ever formulated by the class of '24 and we hope to see an edition every year hereafter. And now as Commencement approaches and our high school days are ended we will enter upon life's work, assuming the duties and responsibilities of men and participated but, we can boast of winning, women in our several walks of life. As we travel the rugged pathway of life, May we smooth all the way with loveg May the milestones prove to be stepping stones To reach the Goal above.

Euninr 0112155 66-66-36 We were Freshies happy and gay On a bright September day. But, Oh, so green, that's what they say On that bright September day. We were Sophies, in mischief f'ound, We never took our outs or downs With a sigh or scowling frown. And now We're Juniors as you see, A group of happy-go-luckies. As busy as bees in a lively bee-hive, For we're the class of twenty-five. In 1921 we started as Freshmen gay, about thirty-five in number, with Miss Cook as sponsor. Our first feat was to display our colors, of green and White. As Sophomores our class was smaller in number but increased in brain matter as all Sophomores do because we had our Freshman year to look back upon and profit by. Miss Grant was our peppy sponsor. The Junior class is one of the best classes in high school. We always have -taken part in music, dramatics, athletics and other high school activities. The annual Junior class play, Excuse Me, was a decided success. Class Officers are: President-Beulah Smith Vice-President-Ella Hansen Secretary-Treasurer-Dorothy Masten
