An education is the retention of the review of our own and other people’s thoughts and experiences. The limit of education is the limit of review and reten- tion.”—N. D. Moon. An education is a requisite if the Ameri- can Ideal is to flourish. For seme formal education will soon be finished, but education will ever march on. It is our hope that you, our students, will bear aloft the torch of learning with chedit to yourself and your institution. Louis R. Fiscus Principal The year at Arlington Fligh has given every student a chance to find and to prove ability, to make new friends, to de- velop thinking power, to acquire useful information, to enjoy a recreational activ- ity, and to broaden life plans. Some have made excellent use of the opportunity, many very good use, and others very little. But. whether you have advanced much or little in your year, may it be for you a step toward a happy, useful citizen- ship in the grandest country on the globe —our United States. I 6 ] A. S. B.

In one corner of the ring we see the Freshman in an array of bright colored short dresses, knee pants, and ribbons in their hair. In the other corner we find the Class of '35 with plenty of bight ideas. Round 1 I he referee, Miss Dyer, and Manager Betty Bird stand by as the battle begins. As it progresses the referee announces that the Frosh are putting up a good fight and are ready for many more. Then they begin to weaken because of the terrific mixer, but soon recover by throwing a left uppercut to the Sophs with a successful Frosh-Soph party. The bell rings and the Frosh, with their many Honor students return to their corner cheering one baseball letterman. Ladies and Gentlemen, at this time I would like to tell you that the Frosh are doing excellently because we all know the first round was a cinch. Round 2 After a refreshing summer vacation the Class of '39 return to their corner for an- other round. Mrs. Bean, a new referee, has been sent in for this round. I he bell—They re off!! Manager Lind'ev Smith sees the Sophs deliver a neat right to the Frosh with another smashing party. The girls th'n send a left to the rest of the school by becoming Volley Ball Champs. The Sophs drop back a little but begin to show up again by bringing in one Football, one Baseball, one Basketball, and two Track let- termen. With about seven months to go, and the Sophs putting up a swell fight, the rest of the school receives a striking blow from the fifteen Torch-Honor Society members. After a smashing skit in the vaudeville, some Sophs in the All-School play, and some in the operetta, the round ends in the new Arlington High School. Round 3 With Miss Dyer back as referee, and Manag'r Phyllis Tiland, the third round begins. The Juniors leave their corner. They give a hard punch to the rest of the school by winning the A. H. S. ticket sale, followed by the vaudeville and All-School play ticket sales. I his was work but they are rewarded a salesmanship plaque. They re down—they re up—masquerading around in what they call the Junior Madri Gras. As the Rest of the School wabbles in to the prom, the Juniors dance in to the theme of Blue Hawaii, under a blue sky dotter with silver stars, and surrounded by silver palms. The twenty-one Torch Honor Society students sneak in a neat right to the body of the Rest of the School. The bell—and a good thing, because the ten Football, seven Baseball, four Bas- ketball, and three Track lettermen have just staggered the Rest of the School. Ladies and Gentlemen this IS a thrilling battle. I don t believe there has ever been one just like it before in this school. What a fight—what a class!! Round 4 The Class of ’39 are in the right corner while the Class of ’42 aTe shaking in the wrong corner. With the sound of the bell the Senior Councilors start toward the Frosh. A mixer— No—the Seniors merely show them aTound the building and end with a soothing program. The Seniors jab a hard right to th? Associated Student Body by putting Lindley Smith in as President, and they capture the Salesmanship plaque by winning three more ticket sales. Oh, oh. something new!! T he Annual Alumni Homecoming Assembly. The Rest of the School weaken, but the Class of '39 force ’em in followed by the Honor guests— the Graduates of the Classse of 1906 to 1914. I 25 ] Senio% Class SKistoly—( onlinuecl The Senior Play, “The Boomerang, was a tough one, the Rest of the School could hardly take it. With a hard punch the Rest of the School are down! As Manager Bill Fowler stands by, the Referee, Miss Dyer, counts one—to—three-—four—five—six—seven— eight—nine—and ten. They're out!! They hear the sweet strains of School Days and the music of the Senior Ball as the Baseball, Track, Fourteen Football, and five Bas- ketball lettermen carry them away. Loud cheers for the eighteen Torch-Honor Society students are heard from the crowd. —Lloyd Williams, Chairman.

[ 49 ] c % vnu’ ( mmq The Homecoming program held December 16, 1938 was strictly in honor of the old graduates from the classes of twenty-five years ago, or 1905-191 3. The Seniors who were responsible for the affair, had fellow classmen posted at the doorways to direct the guests and have them sign the guest books they had prepared. In the afternoon the gradu- ates were entertained in the auditorium by the Seniors. At the close of the program each graduate was asked to come on stage and say a few words. Prizes were awarded to the person coming the farthest distance and from the oldest class. In the evening the Homecoming Ball was held in the gymnasium. The scenery followed the schoolroom theme and the programs were little black slates with a red and white finish. Shortly before intermission the Grand March was led by the class officers and followed by the honored graduates, then the faculty, and following them the visitors and friends. Well known school songs were played all through the evening. Everyone en- joyed the lovely evening and it is the Seniors wish that following Senior classes will make this an annual event. I 50 ] c {isto'iy of Jhlington SKigh School Arlington's sons and daughters first went to school in Ned Lewis’s homestead house in 1885. A Mr. John Condit was their pedagogue at the princely salary of $90 per month; however, his students remember that his wife, Mrs. Condit, did most of the teach- ing. One white child, Isia Smith, attended the school—the rest of the pupils were Indians. A little later in the same year a fin� new school house was erected at the unheard of price of $1 50. Everyone was tremendously proud of the new building and well they might have been for it was born of a1 deep need and more finely constructed than any homestead house for miles around. Its floor boards were cut at Utsalady, shipped up river by canoe, brought inland on horseback and finally laid bv local labor. When the school was completed in 1886 School District No. 6 was organized. Mr. C. J. Murphy, who was the first school clerk, walked to Port Susan to telegraph for a teacher. It took a whole day to get the wire through to Snohomish (then the countv seat). A brave young lady finally accepted the position. At the date agreed upon, Mr. Murphy met her in Stanwood in a canoe. They started up the Stillaguamish River to Arlington and got as far as the city of Florence. While they were stopping here the inhabitants so frightened the would-be teacher with terribl� tales of her wild destination in the forest, that she finally stayed in Florence to teach. Then Mr. Murphy came home empty handed and the next time they hired a teacher, they insisted that he must be a man. So the first teacher in the new school house was a Mormon preacher, Mr. John McEwan. In 1887 a terrible sickness came to the little children of the community and so many died that the school was closed. Teachers came, stuck it out a short term and then left. A Miss Larrie Minn taught the last term in the little log school house. In 1892, the Gar- field School, a fine two-room building, was erected in Arlington and the pupils moved there. Not to be outdone, Haller City erected the equally fine two-room Lincoln School. Later on both of these schools were added to, and in 1904 a high school program was inaugurated and carried out in the Garfield buldmg. Grover Hmman Was the first princi- pal. The next one was Mr. Lancaster, who is remembered chiefly as the man whose cow was painted green by the high school boys on Hallowe en night. 1 imes haven t changed much, have they? _ School spirit was very prevalent during these dear old days in the Garfield. One nice custom they had was planting maple trees on Arbor Day. With each maple tree was planted a bottle containing the names of the planters and that s where our fine old trees came from. t Evidence of the rapid growth of thfe little pioneer community was shown by the fact that this school soon became too crowded. An active interest was now being taken in high schools and in 1908, to obtain a more commodious and efficient high school, Edgecomb, Island, and Trafton districts consolidated with Arlington. A new high school (which is the front part of the present Washington School) was opened with 50 pupils and 4 teachers. . Mr. Will Verd says that it is hard to imagine how preud everyone was of their won- derful “higher seat of learning,” and that a particular point of pride was that it had thr K school busses serving it. These busses, it seems, were drawn by horses and started out at 6:00 o’clock in the morning to get to the school on time. That year local pride bubbled over into the 1908 edition of Prospectus, a book- let concerning the high school, which resembles the college catalogues of today. This book- let, only a few copies of which now exist, is very interesting to read. Its purpose was to attract students from the Stillaguamish Valley and it stated that beard and room were of- fered at reasonable rates to non-resident students.’ In enumerating the best points of the school, the author became very exuberant over the fact that in each hall is a bubbling fountain without cups, the source of much contagious disease ! Some other excerpts from it are: Two courses of study are offered—a Latin Course and a Scientific Course. Athletics are: Tennis—A club consisting of 30 members, an annual tournament held. Baseball—Passed through one season undefeated. Football—Seriously handicapped by lack of opponents. Other Sports—Quoits (!) and fencing. Prospectus tells of an Alumni Association which planned to keep a student loan I 51 ] i ftsto'iy of _Arlington Mgh Sell ool-‘-conti uieJ fund and whose other aims and ideals sound very good. Pictures of the three classes are shown. In the first graduating class was Miss R. Lee Persun, Miss Artie Brown, and Mr. Warren Brown. (The latter two attended the 1938 Homecoming and Ball, gave a class pin to the school and told us many interesting tales about the first school days in the first high school.) The booklet ends by summing up the discipline and motto of the high school as “Everyone is expected to do right. In a few years the horse-drawn busses passed out of existence and model-T Fords brought the students to school. There must have been some good track stars in those days for Charles Bloxham, while in the fervor of athletic training, raced a bus from Oso (I 2 miles) and beat it to the school! In 1912 the Manual I raining and Domestic Science buldings were erected. In 1920 there were 233 pupils attending this building which was made for ninety. In 1921 several things for the furtherance of education occurred. The east wing of the High School was built, the athletic field purchased and the Roosevelt School built. In the summer of 1934 the high school burned but was rebuilt and re-attended. Then in 1936 an old familiar land mark was destroyed and a new one erected as the Garfield School was torn down to make room for our fine new high school. The fruit of the untir- ing labor of many local citizens. This building is occupied by 433 students and 19 teachers and we are as proud of it as past generations were of their new schools. No doubt in thirty-one years some of our modern innovations will be as funny as the “Water foun- tains without cups. School District 324 is composed of 1 6 districts consolidated into one. Graduates of the high school (beginning with a class of three and increasing to a class of 97) number I 350. The Senior class this year has 1 I 0 members who expect to graduate. Though it is housed in a different building and the pupils are different, Arlington High School is still the same in immaterial and moral ways. Its high ideals, school spirit and many of its original customs still exist. One instance of the survival of an old custom is the Campus Day which is held each year. At the early Campus Days the students dug stumps, cleared land, burned brush and did a remarkable lot of work; later they cleaned the rooms, repaired fences and kept up the grounds. We no longer have such feats to per- form nor is there any work to do, but the present modification of our Campus Day is the annual intramural Sports Day. The underlying principles of the things we do are still the same. However, many things have changed, the development of our vocational work is noteworthy and interesting. Extra requirements have been added but in an effort to main- tain a balanced program, athletic teams, dramatics, clubs, and many extra-curricular ac- tivities have been taken up. Stabilization of the characteristic policy of our High School has been made possible by the continuous years of services of many of the school board members and long terms of some of the faculty. Ours has truly been a priceless heritage and in the complacency of our modern life we should be proud of our humble beginnings. We must strive to perpetuate the aims for which our high school was founded so that its high ideals will endure as long as the school.
