F. Queen. In 1915 the structure of the building was completed. In this fi same year three teachers were employed, one teaching the seventh and eighth V grades. The increased enrollment brought forth a demand for some type of social activities. Mr. Queen with the help of the student body formed two Literary so- btw cieties, the Excelsior and the Grant, a Glee club, and a Dramatic club. Four years soon passed and the first class--the Pershing class-graduated in 'qw 1918. At this time Mr. C. V. Davis was principal, and with his advice and that of the class advisor, the first Year Book was published under the name of Echoes 4 This name was changed in 1920 to Memories ll The students continued to come to the Hill of Knowledge in such increas- y N ing numbers that a new addition was made to the building in 1921.
