Edyth Mallory, all from the Junior class, were added to the roll. During the month of April, this class presented a play which was very successful. The Juniors also entertained us with a lovely banquet. All four years Mr. Estrich has been our kind and patient Superinten¬ dent. Mr. Hayes was with us as Principal until this year, when he was succeeded by Mr. Bangs. Much of our excellent training has come through the efforts of these very capable teachers. Altogether we have had a very happy and profitable time in the Angola Public Schools and hope that all of the younger students will enjoy their twelve years with these devoted teachers as much as we have.

Senior Class Historij September of 191G found Mrs. Nina Keep in charge of the first grade. Among her pupils were Alice Cline, Miriam Louise Stevens, Malinda Shank, Wandilee Brooks, Clara Clark, Ethelwyn Carpenter, Robert Field, Jack Croxton, Wendell Jarrard, Wendell Covell, Allen Clark, Aaron Markham, Clifford Van Aman, and Burton Handy. The second grade, taught by Miss Maude Scoville, was increased by Maxine Stafford, from Ashley, and Harold Powers, from Metz. The third grade was instructed by Miss Grace Crain and the fourth under the direction of Miss Oradell Parsell. The fifth grade was instructed by Miss Mabel Luton and Miss Dor’s Pogue, each serving one semester. During this year, Gladys Shoup and Bertrand Elliott were transferee! from Fairview and Paul Burns came from Morenci, Michigan. The sixth grade was taught by Miss Ina Lemmon. There were no addi¬ tions nor withdrawals from this circle. Miss Helen McWilliams was the able guardian of the seventh grade, Paul Beaver, from Fort Wayne, and George Barron, from South Whitley, entered this class. In the last year of our elementary training, we were supervised by Mrs. Utter and well prepared for the next step in our education. Picture us, eight grade graduates, with that well-educated, grown-up feeling, as we received our diplomas from Mrs. Utter, on Memorial Day of 1924. We felt that we had mastered education, but when the first peal of the bell summoned us, as Freshmen to the assembly, where we rubbed elbows with Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, we began to realize that we could scarcely stand alone. During this year Doris Carr, from Crooked Lake, Margery Wells, from Oiland, Velma Apple from the seventh grade, Loretta Sanders, from Loon Lake, and William McConnell, from Bigler, entered the class. The Sophomore year was one of hard study and deep thought. We were then more accustomed to the new surroundings, so different from the grades, where we had only one teacher in charge of one room. The Junior year was one full of social events as w r ell as of hard work. The Junior-Senior reception, held May 19, 1927, was the leading social function. Mr. Shank, who had been our class overseer during these three years, was toastmaster. The Senior class also entertained us with a delightful party, held in the gymnasium. Carrie Shrider, from Montpelier, Ohio, and Lewis Letts, from Scott Center, Indiana, joined our happy circle. The next year we assumed the title of Seniors. We became the example for the Freshman and felt that we were shouldering a great responsibility.
