ARTHUR WILLARD Senior Qflass ARTHUR WILLARD. The man worth while is the man who can smile, When everything goes dead wrong. In 1906 Mr. Willard entered our school for the nrst time. In a short time he left to accept a position in the Elba School where he was a marked success. This year he again entered the school. His credits from the Cheney Normal, which he at- tended, placed him in the Senior Class with light work for the year. During the year he taught a four months school at Elba and returned to graduate with his class. He is energetic and enthusias- tic. He enjoys talking, running bluffs, and working people. If necessary he can work himself. He has won success on both gridiron and diamond. He is very popular and during his stay at the Normal has won many friends and made no enimles.

Little do the cooing Juniors think that their efforts furnish the material on which the Seniors grow and stretch above them. Thus we say, All hail to the intrigues of Freshmen, Sophmores and Jun- iors. - In September, 1908, when the A. S. N. S. began another year 's work, everyone looked around for some benign Senior on whom he might hurl his thunder bolts. But such a personage was hard to find as another year had been added to the course and it was a question whether there would be a graduating class at all. But yes, four bright-eyed seniors soon greeted the eyes of the beseeching students and faculty-four diligent and energe- tis students who were destined to do much lin shaping the events of the coming year. Early in September the 'first class meeting was held at which plans were arranged for the year 's work. To this meeting tl1e Normal owes the publication of the first annual in the scl1ool's history.
