This year marks the retirement of Mr. Balch from the Board of Trustees, lie has been a trustee for six years, and in that capacity has been most success- ful. He has found his work, he says, congenial. The accomplishments fulfilled throughout his term have been furthered by the administrating body because of respect for each other’s opinions and moves. Dr. Yanatta, our new trustee, has conscientiously worked throughout this, his first year, for the betterment of the school, and has carefully and broad- mindedly examined the questions which came to his attention. Mr. Hughes, the senior member of the board, who is serving his third term as trustee, has worked carefully with each succeeding new member since his entrance, to form a board which has the best interests of the schools as a goal.

Any literary production should be true to the lives of the people it repre- sents. The (Mass of 1930 endeavors to represent to the greatest extent possible in this volume of the annual, by name and by theme, our school, our vicinity, our state, our West. After a school vote, a faculty vote, and a vote of some of the townswomen, on fifty or more suggestions, the name Ketochi was chosen, which means hilltop in the Indian language. This name not only gives the location of our school, but it also suggests the topography of our vicinity, and intimates that our ideals and our aims are placed high. The theme chosen is the development of the West. Through this volume can he traced the growth of a land in all its stages: -Indian scout; prairie schooner; log cabin home on the prairie; the hand plow, representative of early farming; and finally the tractor, which represents the scientific farming of the present period. The Senior (Mass has put forth its best efforts in endeavoring to reflect the activities and scenes of the High School during 1929-1930. Papre Four

31 =3D THE KETOCHI or —Jl-- -=} =0 The success of education might be estimated by its influet e upon the lives of the graduates from a school. The one hundred and seven graduates from the Cascade High School have gone forth into a variety of activities and occupations. Over forty of these graduates have finished some higher institution of learning or are in attendance there now. Twenty-four of the graduates have taken further training for some vocation such as commercial work or nursing. The rest of the group either have entered into some vocation which they hope to follow during life or are still looking about for such an opportunity. The success of the graduates is of keen interest to all educational workers and to prevent failures among students, modern schools are developing de- partments of guidance both for educational and vocational activity. In this field the Cascade Public Schools are making a beginning in order that the school may render a better service to the students and diminish the number of failures among its graduates. Efficient service endeavors to bring individuals to higher standards in society and not merely to overcome some obstacle in the path of life. Through many types of service it is becoming increasingly difficult to fail. The many safeguards that are built to prevent failure all tend to place a demand upon youth that they make a success of their lives. The public demand today is for services which prevent the wastes of failure. Thus the Cascade schools are making an earnest endeavor to meet the demands for success placed upon mod- ern youth.
