Earned by each student were: Red Cross First Aid, Teachers Palmer Method Penmanship, and State Teacher’s Certificates. The social calendar was a full one. The first big event was the “Teacher’s Institute,” with a schedule very similar to that of a State Institute. The “Show Boat,” a variety program, was presented for the public on February 3, 1942. Mothers of the children in the Training Room were hostesses at a tea given for the students. Another event looked forward to by the group took place on March 20, when they visited the rural schools in the County. To end the year the group went to Chicago on “Skip Day.” Thus ended the year with hopes for a successful teaching career. Top Row: Shirlee Kenstner. Wanda Heistund. Edith Mittccr, Phyllis Wieber.

IN MEMORIAM Frank Dillingham, Junior In memory of him who went before us We, the graduation class of ’42, Reverently dedicate this portion of our book To Junior, always happy and true. A boy scout for his country, A classmate in his school, A friend to all who knew him. His motto, The Golden Rule. We miss his cheerful smile. His absence makes us sad, But our memory glows brightly Of this kind and cheerful lad. —Wanda Berger In memory of Frank Dillingham Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Dillingham, who was born March 16, 1924; and who passed away at his home on May 5, 1938, while in the ninth grade, we, the class of '42, dedicate this portion of our yearbook. Junior will always remain in our memories as a boy whose trust in human nature, love of outdoor life, sweetness of disposition and whose joy in living could be outranked by no one. Junior found and made happiness wherever he was and in whatever he did. His happy carefree presence is missed by all who knew him. [20]
