Class History ln the fall of 1940, forty-one new and eager students trooped up the stairs to begin our 13 years of hard labor. We admit there were a few tears shed: nevertheless, we re- gained our composure and enjoyed ourselves. Those who started were Wanda Andersen, Martha Argotsinger, Harvey Brasel, Nancy Brink, Leland Buck, Luan Chowning, Viola Mae Coleman, Bryce Cross, Helen Ann Dillavou, Lois Ann Dryden, Dennis Gibson, Gene Goeser, Clifford Gorman, Jim Griffin, Adella Hansen, Faye Hansen, Alma Higgings, Bill Houston, Dean Jenkins, Kenneth Kinny, Harold Kuhlman, Bob Lahr, Owen Leslie, Hans Malone, Alice McCoid, Leonard Mitchell, Ronald Mortenson, Wilmer Norris, Paul Paulsen, Shirley Penniman, Joan Riddle, Pat Riley, Glenda Smith, Loren Smith, Edward Segebart, .Tack Thomson, Jerome Thompson, Bruce Tillit, Edith Wingrove, Arlo McCutcheon, and Mary Mar shall. ln kindergarten, we labored with our ABC's and we learned to count. We all looked forward to our afternoon naps and story telling. We certainly enjoyed those rugs. We will always remember Miss Agnes' famous drawing of the birthday cake and the singing of Old Shoes, New Shoes. The dog house in first grade always seemed to be fascinating for some of the boys, and possibly a few girls. The fruit drink always tasted good at recess. This was the first year we had the use of desks. lt was quite a thrill to have books, paper and pencils right with us. We also started a tonette band which was a lot of fun. Second grade seemed to be a little harder- We began to learn to write and also to work more with numbers. We will always remember the plaques we made and also the Lifebuoy Health Charts that we kept. Third grade was one of our most memorable years. The girls built grass houses-- then the boys ran through and'wrecked them. A lot of our recesses were spent in playing Pomp Pomp Pull Away. The tale can now be told of some of our antics. Dennis, Bryce, Owen, and others left school early one day--by the use of the fire escape. They were never missed. When Pat was sent to the cloakroom she had a feast of crackers. Joan used to enjoy her noon lunches in the middle of the morning. Wanda brought her jewels to school and with the help of her classmates threw them on the floor. The boys crawled all over the room picking them up for us. We remember the day we let some bees out in the room after gettingthem at recess. We remember our Thanksgiving party, and march- ing to other rooms, also the marches that we took around the room, and don't forget the yardstick. The boys didn't get by with playing marbles during school time. The teacher had quite a collection. We did some studying by the way--we learned where we lived and something about ourselves by the use of geography. We also began to take science- We really thought we were grown up. Fourth, fifth, and sixth grades were also eventful years. In fourth grade, the teacher didn't show up one day. We proceeded to teach ourselves. Boy, did we learn a lot. We also had a flower shower for our teacher. The room really smelled nice after that. This was the year we really had a picnic. We went out to McCutcheon's timber and had a wiener roast, played games and other things. What a year!! ln fifth grade we began trying to master fractions. After a lot of patience from the teacher, we finally got it through our thick skulls. At least we think we did. This was the year we took part in the grade school operetta. Some of the girls even put on plays during the noon hour for special enter- tainment. Sixth grade, we began on decimals. What a time! We were taking penmanship at full swing. We are sure that our instructor thought we were writing with our noses be- cause of the ink on them. Some of the high school faculty still think we do. This is the year we had our pictures taken. At last we arrived at seventh grade. We were really grown up. We remember the numerous spelling Contests, the fruit rolls, and other activities that we participated in.
