I left San Francisco, June 24, 1973. When I arrived at Arlington I hardly knew whether it was safe to get off the train or not. The buildings were shabby and many were torn down. It was hard to recognize any of the old scenes. I went into a store to inquire my way and see if any of my old school- mates were still living. The store- keeper and I carried on a long con- versation and I found out I was talking to Everett Sunman. I noticed a lady sitting behind a desk writing on a type- writer and I asked Everett who that was and he said she was his private stenographer, Lavaughn Hardin. I soon began to feel like I was home again. Everett asked me to remain at his house for my visit and this I did. Everett told me that Paul Kennedy and Mary Barnard had graduated from the same Bible college and they were going around over the world holding revival meetings. Mae, Celia and Pearle had continued their education and were teaching in mlllllllllllllllllllll Il Illll Il1lllll1llllVll SQ -- 22 great Universities. Mae was teaching chemistry, Celia had charge of math- ematics, and Pearle was in charge of gymnastic department. I was proud to think some of my schoolmates had gained so much by their education. I was so surprised when Everett told me that Lucile Gardner, Helen Dow- ney and Constance Noble held good positions at the 5 and 10 cent stores in New York, and were making good. I found out Harlan Lee and Francis Readle are in partnership and they are working on a great plan to build a rail- road to Europe. They have had many difficulties but they are about to finish the plan. We had talked about all of the old schoolmates except Maud, and Everett told me that she finally married Leonard Bland and they had charge of the poor farm, east of Rushville. Anna Ridlen had lived to be an old maid and was going to run for Presi- dent the next election. After I had spent. a week here I was- due for another trip around the world, so I left Arlington feeling much better and hoping that I would see some of my old friends once again. -Zelda Hutchinson. - ,Illlllllllllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllllllllw

Immun MS-gmllllllllllllllllll IllIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIII SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Only four short years ago seventeen little Freshmen came to this same dear old school to begin their high school career. At first we found it very strange and different from anything we had before experienced or imagin- ed, but our teachers were glad to help us so we soon got acquainted with everything- Some of these teachers were also strange, but Mr. Wagoner and Mrs. Grimsley had been here the year be- fore. Miss Carr and Miss Scraper were our new teachers who taught us English and Domestic Science. We found the work quite hard at first, but we were determined to win, so we kept struggling away, trying at all times to do our best. I did not come here during my Soph- omore year, but learned from my old classmates that they were still keeping the class standard aided by Mr. Prots- man, Miss Archer, Miss Welker, Miss 'Plummer and Miss Titsworth. They said they could not have fought their battles without the aid of these true helpers. On returning to A. H. S. to complete my work, I found that several new students had taken their place in our wllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllillIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-M - 23 class and that some of the old ones had left. We had two new teachers, Mr. Lockwood and Mr. Hyatt, who were glad to help us in our work and also in our jolly good times. When I became acquainted with those teachers who had taught the previous year I found they were quite worthy of the praise given them. Mr. DeMunbrun, who had taught us before was also one of the faculty. Near the close of this year, a school play was given in which many of the Juniors took part, with great success. We also gave a Japan- ese reception for the Seniors of which we were proud. When it was time for us to begin our fourth year we were glad and sorry, glad to be together again, and sorry it was our last year. Mr. De- Munbrun and Mr. Hyatt came back to help us complete our course and Mr. Goode, Miss Harrington and Miss Parrish also aided in speeding us on our way. Now that our high school career is ending and we are leaving our dear old A. H. S. with sadness, we hope that each of our lower classmen will reach with success this goal which we have attained-Seniors! Pearle Macy.
