They are of gold. Many of the children have them to wear for graduation. CLASS GIFT The class of 1926 gave as a gift to the school a sum of money for visual education. During the past years we have enjoyed the slides so much that we thought it would be fitting to give this sum for the purchase of a few more slides. We hope that they will be appreciated as much by future classes as they were by the class of 1926. WHO’S WHO in 1920 Name Nickname Hobby Aloisa, Vincey Studious Studying Ambrosini, Mary .
