6 ahr (Omuaumts Martin, during the same year, changed the three year to a four year course. When Mr. Hockenberry was again made superintendent in 1906 the four year course was fully established, and to him is given the credit of graduating the first class from the four year school in 1907. Since that time we have had a graduating class each year which has steadily increased in number. With this growth there has been a correspond- ing growth in the course of study. In 1908, Mr. Stout took Mr. Hockenberry’s place. This date marks the beginning of a new epoch in the history of the La Grande High School. The first work Mr. Stout did, after taking our school, was to divide the course of study into distinct departments. At first the Classical, Commercial and Scientific courses were established, but since then the Eng- lish, Teachers and Manual Arts courses have been added. Mr. Stout also made many other important changes, all of which have tended to raise our school to the rank of the best institutions in the state. The last three years have been the banner years in the history of our high school. In 1907, there were but two graduates; in 1911, there were nineteen, and this year thirty students will be graduated. The enrollment in the last three years has shown a marked increase. It has grown from one hundred and thirty-seven students in 1909 to two hundred and forty-one. The faculty as well has grown; it has increased from four instructors in 1907 to ten at the present time. But the most convincing evidence of the remarkable growth of the La Grande High School is the fact that a new building recently became a necessity. The new building which was completed in January, 1911, is one of the finest for its purpose which has thus far been erected in Eastern Oregon, and we are assured that it need not shun compari- son with the best high schools in Western Oregon.
