Thr Elninnruu FHESHH Motto: Labor Conquors All Things Teacher: Miss Bloomfield. Flower: Clover Leaf. Colors, Green and Silver. Our class of 1918-1919 started in September with twelve members. We dropped to ten. then increased to four- teen--all under the name of Freshmen. We have had several class meetings, some exciting and some every day af- fairs. They were conducted by our ever faithful President, John Wilhite. In athletics the Freshmen Class has done quite well and has always turned out loyally to all the school games and has joined heartily in all the songs and yells. Early in the spring we gave a party in honor of the Sophomores at the home of Florence Taylor in Wildomar. This was considered a great success. As the end of the term draws near the Latin class has fewer members than it had at the beginning of the year. Nevertheless we have gone this far through the year without many mis- haps. The trials of English, Algebra, Latin and Science are as nothing com- pared to the fun we have had. As Freshmen we have tried to do our work faithfully and keep up our grades as well in this more advanced work as we have done in the past. We have enjoyed the whole year very much and have liked our teachers ever so much. We thank our class teachers, Miss Bloomfield and Mrs. Johnson for all they have done for us and wish them to know that we appreciate it. HELEN SMITH '22. fb ' 44 iyfg sg! '- X,-Q , . ' -Y,

0511: iilainnrua ilainnrr Hninn high Svrhnnl School Trustees. How much is their rightful due. In 1891 the grammar 'school trustees, Messrs. Washburn, Leech and Schanck, realized the need of a High School for students ready for advanced work. By co-operation with the surrounding valley Elsinore was chosen as a center and in Septem- ber, 1891 Elsinore Union High School opened her doors with an enrollment of fifteen students. The first year was full of enthusiasm and school spirit. On entering the second term the class had diminished to ten in number. An average attendance of ten for the term is required by the state to continue a High School. These loyal ten, known as the Immortal Ten, pledged them- selves to the support of the Elsinore Union High School. Through diffi- culties and hardships. by diligence and application they won their cause. Honor to the Immortal Ten. The third term found them ready for chemistry in their course of studies but, alas, no laboratory. They were not daunted, but by a series of entertainments pro- cured the funds for the necessary equip- ment. In 1894 the first graduation class were ready to embark on life's stream. The members were Mabel Yates, Ger- trude Lawler, Rulief Schanck. Raber Schanck and Harry Dutton. The High School had had its quar- ters in a small room of the Grammar School building until 1897. Growth in numbers necessitated more room so the High School was domiciled in the Bank building. This year marked the second graduation class of two members. The next term found a class of six ready to receive their diplomas, as the banner class. The High School was again moved back to the Grammar School building, remaining there several years, when apparently migration ap- peared to mean progress and the old Armory Hall was secured for High School rooms. The Trustees realized the need of an efficient High School build- ing in a growing community center and eight years ago our building of today was made ready for occupancy. Could a more ideal location have been chosen for. a High School site? You have to stand but once on the portico to realize the inspiration and incentive the stu- dents gather from the wonderful pano- rama ever before them. Elsinore may well be proud of the oldest High School in Riverside county and may the educational activities keep abreast the growth and improvements of our community. Welcome to those entering our sanctum next term and may the numbers be much greater than the graduation class of this term. B. Z. C. '19. ALUMNI 1894.
