HISTORY of the CLASS of 15 (MYRTLE LINVILLE.) The class of 1915 was perhaps the most enthusiastic if not the largest ever entering the High School. The class soon organized and elected the following officers: First Semester—President, Wetzel Griffin; Vice President, Margaret Barry; Secretary, Nancy Welch; Treasurer, Lorens Logan; Editor, Mildred Copeland; Sergeant-at-Arms, Duane Souden. Second Semester—President, Robert Malarkey; Vice President, Nellie Larsen; Secretary, Maude Larsen; Treasurer, Myrtle Linville ; Editor, Jessie Garner; Sergeant-at-Arms, Adolph Drilling. During the second semester a party was given in the A. O. U. W. Hall. This was in the form of a reception for the February class and proved a grand success. The Freshmen Picnic was held at Columbia Beach and was greatly enjoyed by all. SOPHOMORE TERM. First Semester—President, Ivor Ross; Vice President, William Sigurd- son; Secretary, Claudia Malarkey; Treasurer, Nancy Welch; Editor, Helen Dahlgren; Sergeant-at-Arms, Adrien Ford. Second Semester President, William Sigurdson; A ice President, Rose O Farrell; Secretary and Treasurer, Louise Morgan; Sergeant-at-Arms, Frank Roller; Editor, Jessie Garner. All through the Sophomore year a great deal of interest was shown in school activities. Several of our members were on intersociety debating teams. The Sophomore girls also won honors in Basket-Ball. The Sophomore picnic was held at North Head and was an event long to be remembered. And the ice cream! How good it tasted, especially to those who wheeled it in a wheel-barrow over all those weary miles. JUNIOR TERM. First Semester—President, Wetzel Griffin; Vice President. Lorens Logan; Secretary, Claudia Malarkey; Treasurer, Myrtle Linville; Editor, Jes- sie Garner. Second Semester—President, Lorens Logan; Vice President, William Sigurdson; Secretary, Jessie Garner; Treasurer, Dale Howard; Editor, Rose O’Farrell; Sergeant-at-Arms, Claudia Malarkey. The Junior year was a busy one, because of the necessity for raising funds. The biggest “event” of the year was the Country Fair. On Saturday, Maich , at :30 P. M„ the parade slowly wended its way through the crowd¬ ed streets and assembled at the Fair Building. Inside the Vaudeville claimed the most people and the Japanese Tea Garden, presided over by quaint [ap maids, also attracted many. Besides these were the “Fish Pond,” “Kiss Booth,” “Hall of Fame,” Chamber of Horrors,” and many others, A lar°- e sum was cleared from the “Fair and the class considered their hard efforts were well rewarded. — 24 —

The Junior Prom, was given at the A. F. S. C. Hall. This was a decided success and can well be said to have been the best ever given. The hall was decorated in the class colors of yellow chrysanthemums and greens were hung from each chandelier, giving a very pretty effect. Ferns were used profusely in decorating the Balcony and Punch Table. SENIOR YEAR. First Semester—President, William Sigurdson; Vice President, Jessie Garner; Secretary Myrtle Linville; Treasurer, Ruth Spande; Editor, Helen Dahlgren; Sergeant-at-Arms, Claudia Malarkey. Second Semester—President, William Sigurdson; Vice President. Dale Howard; Secretary, Martha Jackson; Treasurer, Ersie Mathews; Editor, Helen Dahlgren; Sergeant-at-Arms, Lorens Logan. The Senior class gave a very successful ‘‘Cafeteria - ’ during the first se¬ mester. Several ice cream sales were also given. We are proud to think that some of our class—Eva Bower, Ruth Spande, Sverre Halsan and William Sigurdson—won honors for the school in debate. The class have purchased rings and pins as a remembrance of our High School days. We are also planning to leave a momento to the High School which will be a lasting remembrance of the Class of ’15. And now, after four years, our High School career is drawing to a close. And though we anticipate with pleasure our graduation, yet it is with a feel¬ ing of regret, that we must leave behind us our many friends among the students and faculty. ADVICE Freshmen, Freshmen everywhere, There’s nary a place I roam, But I see a bit of dazzling green, Alone,—just fresh from home. These Freshmen are no earthly use, They’re all to small for the team, ’Tis best they should sit on the nice big lawn, And help to keep it green. 25 —
