llttl RAINIER Auburn Academy stands out in beautiful vistas. our memories as the school of the When Mrs. Cubley and I first came to Auburn to teach in 1925, three beautiful evergreen trees were growing up through the floor of the Crow’s Nest Lookout. One of the first things we did was to stand beneath these trees at the lookout rail and marvel at the loveliness of the beautiful Green River Valley be¬ low with its picturesque pattern of farms and peaceful homes, high-lighted by the sparkling clear waters of the Green River dashing aong toward Puget Sound. From our windows in the annex we looked out, as we arose each morning, to see magnificent Mt. Rainier. The serenity of her eternal snows seen in the early hours seemed to give us the needed inspiration and strength for the duties of each day. The warm pink of the afterglow reflected from her glaciers at set of sun warmed our hearts and seemed to breathe a benediction upon our efforts for that day. Withal, four very pleasant years at Auburn Academy left upon our memories the indelible imprints of beautiful rivers, picturesque lakes, restful vistas of forest green, joyful picnics and excursions into dozens of ageless beauty spots, and surpassing all, the changeless yet ever changing Rainier Vista looking down benignly upon the glistening white of the academy buildings. Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Cubley (Auburn Academy 1925-29) REMINISCENCE OF A PRINCIPAL My days at Auburn Academy are among the most pleasant memories of my life. When I went to be principal there, the school was young. There had been a disastrous fire and a new main building had been erected and had been in use about a year before our arrival. Our dear Elder Wyman was the baker; Mrs. Gyes was the matron; and such gardens and such food! I think that while we were connected with the school the first annual under the name “Rainier Echoes” was published. Everyone of our schools possesses marvelous advantages, but it seems to me that Auburn has so many more than the others. Truly no other school is so beautifully located, nor do the others have a more loyal and helpful constitu¬ ency. I shall always remember “Auburn, sweet Auburn, etc.” Well, it is not on a plain, but set down in the midst of majestic loveliness. God always keep it fair and beautiful! H. H.
