OUR EDUCATIONAL HERITAGE The Arcadia community has always been interested in a sound educational program from the very earliest log school until Washington Township boasted of its nine district schools, and now is proud of its modern centralized school, which employs sixteen teachers who instruct its 470 pupils. Two outstanding leaders our community has given to the country are Dr. Wallace Campbell, former President of the University of California and a noted world-wide astronomer, and Dr. Will Anderson, head of Mathematics and the Department of Astronomy at Miami. The first high school, a high school of the third grade, was organized at Arcadia in 1893. The school year of 1907-1908 found us without 11 high school due to factional disturbances within the township. In 1908 school was resumed again, and a second grade charter was obtained. In 1914 the school was granted a first grade charter. Admittance to the North Central Association of High Schools and Colleges, the highest recognition given any high school, was gained in 1924. The school has held continued membership in this organization since its admittance. The following have been superintendents since the high school was organized in 1893: 1893-1894 rr..,i,,,,-,,,,,..r..,,,.,,. A. C, Freed 1908-1912 ,..,......... . ...., . ........ V.

CLASS POEM e Four years ago we started fresh Upon unchartered seas, New friends, new guides, new tasks to best To shape our destinies. We toiled and fought to conquer, gain Ideals to make a future, Things foreign and strange we had to learn Our thoughts we had for nurture. We had our fun, but struggled too, These pathways were not smooth, Our tasks were difficult to do But, then we dare not lose. Our challenges we took like men And with our best surpassed, We came up smiling, thus to wing Our goal we reached at last. Now comes the time to start anew Unchartered paths to travel, With hopes set high, our prospects few, Our fates begin to ravel. So comes the hour to bid adieu To teachers, friends, so dear, We're ready now to die or do And master every fear. -Dxzssns BovEE E. rf: '1 - 1 :,.i : :A il ,WLAN yi: ra fr ,ai f ,ILL I,-T ,ii li, 5 'T sw , ei, ,J , 5 .
