State Bank now stands, nine students ,Qldltlllflltttl from what was then known as the Ludington iligh Hehool. At that time the course of High School Study was lor three years only. Since that time the course has been changed and the number oi' graduates has steadily increased until in 1912, a class of thirty 1-ight reeeived diplomas, the largest class in the history of the High t-iehool As the number of graduates increased, the Alumni believed n a good plan to l'orm an organization in order to better preserve the interests and traditions ot' the High School. ln 1888 an Alumni Assoeirition was formed. The purpose of this organization was to keep the Alumni together. The Association held annual meetings in the late spring' just before graduation time. 'l'hey elected ot-

ticers and planned the place and time for a reception given for the graduating class. These receptions were generally held the last Friday in the school year. The first reception was held at the old Filer House located on the city park site, since removed to make room for park purposes. Later receptions were held at the Club House, the school building, the Russell House and at the Stearns Hotel. They continued to do this until 1912, when a reception was given the graduates at the K. of P. Hall. These receptions have become an annual event of great importance with the High School and those vitally inter- ested in its welfare. Over eight hundred have received diplomas from the local High School, and are Ludingt.on's leading business men today. Others have scattered to foreign countries while in every state in the Union some loyal son or daughter of the Ludington High School salutes the Stars and Stripes. Some have become doctors, law- yers and ministers. Others are now High School teachers, princi- pals and superintendents. Some of our graduates We find have chosen agriculture as their life work. Many are recognized as the leading business men of today or are occupying responsible posi- tions in the business world. Even college professors have received their early education within the four walls of our High School, men that the High School can well be proud of. One of these, Mr. Axel Yestling is Professor of German at Yale and a member of his class occupies a position of like importance in another Eastern college. CLASS 1877.
