Perhaps the greatest addition of the year, and one most pleasing to the High School students, was the erection of an athletic building on the football field, which was ready for use last fall. The building is 20x40 feet. and contains dress- ing rooms, showers with hot and cold water, and a place for the football clothes. Part of the materials came out of the old Klaple Street building, and it cost approximately 34000. llutchinson is one of the first schools in the state to have the convenience of dressing quarters on the field. Through the efforts of the lioard of liducation during thc past vear, two buildings were erected and ready for use at the beginning of the first semester. The new Lincoln building now stands where the old Maple School building had been. Because of crowded class rooms, the fine addition at Sherman was built. This comprises a gymnasium, a large auditorium and several class rooms. During February the stage in the auditoriuin was furnished with a curtain. scenerv and furniture, in the purchase of which the board supplemented the Sherman funds. The lioard of Education has six members: Rlr. A. XY. KlcCandless, Mrs. I. F. Ifontron, Mrs. lf. D. XYolcott, llr. bl. lirownlee. sludge Charles Fulton, and Mr. C. D. -lennings. Mr. RlcCandless, chairman of the board, has been serving his 38th year as a member of the organization. Mr. xl. li. Geyer is the clerk of the Board of Education. The place of Mrs. Vvolcott, whose services have won for her the appreciation of everyone, is to be filled next year by Mr. R. ll. llammond, to whom we extend a most cordial welcome. The financial support which the lioard of lfducation kindly rendered the Annual Staff is in a large measure responsible for whatever success we have obtained. Page 7 X

We can't live without 'em, we can't live with 'em. .Ns the term of our association expires, our hearts grow tender at the thought of our coming separation. ln days past. in situations almost forgotten, we did not always hold these tender sentiments. Many is the time that we have felt abused. Many times we have felt that to give up was the nobler thing. But each time we have stayed and worked and struggled until at last we are about to be rewarded. Hut this brings us back to the fact that we and the Faculty are about to come to the parting of the ways. Maybe the lfaculty has been hard on us at times, maybe we have felt they were unjust. even cruel. Still these be honorable men and women. XYe come not to praise them. XYe, the class of '25, come to bury in memory what has been a living, vital rela- tioziship between the Faculty and ourselves. XYe feel a distinct responsibility for the thinning of the golden tresses of some of our teachers. Perhaps our sins of omission and commission have in part been the cause of so many 'fspecsn among them. XX'e know that developing the culture and nature of the class of '25 from its babyhood to its apparent sturdiness and strength of the present moment has been a strain on the Faculty. Of course we do not assume responsibility for all the grev hairs and frowns twhich, by the way, are very fewj. Many Seniors have gone forth from old H. ll.S. before our time, Some of these perhaps were good, still others were as bad or worse than we, the reverend and dignified Seniors of the present moment. Still we admit that we have done our share. And as we go forth upon l,ife's various highways we feel that anything we may do of honor or worth may be traced back to lligh School days when our Faculty was guiding our steps in the finer paths. As our valedictory statement we would like to say that no group anywhere has had finer ideals, worked more conscientiously, or shown greater forbearance than our Faculty. Page 9
