Ellendale High School - Redbird / Microphone Yearbook (Ellendale, ND)

The Microphone For the second time, the Ellendale High School through its Senior class is publishing this little pamphlet known as the Microphone. The first issue was so successful that the present graduates were unanimous in their desire to continue the enterprise. It will serve as a chronicle of the interesting events of the year 1935-36. It will prove interesting reading matter not only to students now in high school, but to alumni and friends as well. In years to come it will be picked up and re-read from time to time, keeping fresh in our minds pleasant mem- ories of high school days. OUR BOARD OF EDUCATION AND FACULTY Board of education: A. R.

IN RETROSPECT In our Freshman year, we, the mighty Seniors, felt almost as important as we do now. We were a little awed by being in the first year in high school and took our duties quite seriously. Quite seriously, I say, because of course we enjoyed good times, too. There were many new students who came from country schools, strangers to us then, who are now old friends. In our Sophomore year we were really in high school, and we looked up to the Juniors and Seniors, especially the Seniors. We thought they were quite all right and tried to copy their ways, just as the Sophomores try to copy our ways this year. Our Junior year was one of study and meditation, as well as one of strenuous outside activity. We had long honor rolls and made our teachers notice our presence. We distinguished ourselves in dra- matics and music. We also worked hard to give the Seniors a farewell banquet, just as the Juniors this year have done. Now we are Seniors. Several of us have come up from t he first grade together. Of course we are grown up now and have the larger freedom of the Senior. Even the teachers say they notice our in- creased dignity and poise! Our graduation is a happy, exciting time, but it is also a little sad. We will go forth determined to do our best, but we will not forget our school and our pals. We will see each other again, we hope, and wish each other all the health, happiness and success that life can hold. ■ o SENIOR CHURCH SERVICE Sunday, May 17 - Methodist Episcopal Church Processional Mrs. L.
