A LAST WORD I know that my redeemer liveth. For unto me he giveth Hope, peace, joy. And I to him shall give: All that I am. as long as I live. L. W. In my two years at Minnehaha I have felt a definite strengthening in my Christian life. I have felt definitely drawn closer to my Master and hope that it may continue. G. S. My heart is filled with gratitude to God for the life He has imparted to me through Christ. As I leave Minnehaha Academy where Christ has been exalted it is my desire to serve Him by a life of devotion and sacrifice where ever He may lead. R. R. As I look back upon the years before my conversion they appear to me as one long dream. What the Lord has done for me since I yielded my life to Him means more to me than human words are able to express. Being able to attend a Christian school such as Minnehaha has greatly influenced my Christian life. M. E. 19 i THE 1936 QUILL CLASS HISTORY ’ WHAT a host of memories I have within this diary of mine. ' said the young graduate the evening before her commencement. “Guess I'll sec what all we did during our four years at Minnehaha.'' And so she fell to reminiscing. “My. but it doesn't seem like four years ago since we first entered the Academy. I wonder if there were ever seven more bewildered looking freshmen than we were on that first day of school in September of 193 2. What a change’ Now we arc thirty-seven intelligent-looking seniors ready to leave the halls of our beloved school. Imagine! a leaf from our first Campus Day. 1 still remember the fun we had on that day. As a rule, freshmen are not very well represented in the school activities, but it didn’t take us long to get acquainted. Perhaps they felt sorry for us because we were such a small class. Oh! here are some of the calling cards I got from some kind-hearted seniors on the last day of our freshman year—and then a long vacation. We certainly had a large representation on the honor roll during our Sophomore year. It also looks like most of the boys went out for sports in a big way and at the end of the year were awarded with the first 'M's.' By the time we were Juniors we felt that we were really getting up in the world. We had to be real business like, of course, and have a lot of class meetings. The biggest event of our Junior year was the planning of the Junior-Senior banquet. We thought it was quite a success and I wouldn't doubt but what the seniors thought so too. And then the declamatory contest. The two winners out of a total of three were from our class. My! we won quite a few basketball games that year. Most of the high-point men being juniors. Once more the juniors displayed their ability and that was when the girls won their annual basketball game with the senior girls. The boys seemed to think that this game was especially entertaining. Just think of all the things we ranked so high in and those seniors had the nerve of handing some baby shoes to us at the banquet. Well, our junior year certainly did go fast and now' our senior year has passed even more quickly. We think it s lots of fun being seniors—all the other classes look up to us thinking we arc quite intelligent—too bad we aren’t. The Minnehaha Singers have really proved to be a real blessing to us this year. I am sure that having that privilege of singing has made us more fit for the things that lie before us. Here it tells of that marvelous chapel service just before Paster vacation. I never could forget how so many of my fellow classmates found Christ as their Savior for the first time. The North Park debate proved to be a special adventure to some of us as we went to Chicago with the team. Campus Day—our last one—perhaps that's why we thought we didn't have to do so much w'ork. It certainly was kind of the juniors this year to give such a grand banquet for us. I hope they arc given one equally as fine. Thus our senior year has come to an end leaving precious memories never to be forgotten. —Evelyn Strom 20 MINNEHAHA ACADEMY THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT of the CLASS OF 1936 WE THE Senior Class of nineteen hundred and thirty-six. of Minnehaha Academy. Minneapolis. Minnesota, being one hundred percent efficient in mind and body, but realizing that school life cannot always last, and that the future will bring a great separation of the members of our body, do hereby revoke all previous wills, and do publish this as our final Will and Testament FIRST—-Wc desire that all deeply-rooted sorrow, felt by our faculty and underclassmen be dispensed with immediately. SECOND—To our most esteemed Minnehaha Academy we do give and bequeath our staunch loyalty and love.

Item 3—To Mr. Schoultz whose brilliant lectures filled with technical terms and allusions to all the vaguely-involved branches of science which fill us with confusion and agitation and finally bring us to a state of psychiatry, we leave an automatic gas detector to protect him from the unscrupulous chemistry students who are wont to leave all the gas jets wide open. Item 4—To Miss Fellroth whose mathematical mind has guided us through the maze of figures, wc can only leave our love, best wishes and praise for her patience and endurance in the hours of tedious and tasteless teaching to a nonplussed group of students.

One of the most important events which the juniors sponsor is the Junior-Senior banquet. This year it was held in the school dining-room. The school paper, the Quiver, is put out bi-weekly by the staff which is composed entirely of juniors. The Quiver also sponsored the exhibition of foreign relics and moving pictures of the eminent foreign traveler. Elmer Albin-son. Surely the junior year is fraught with activities and enterprises, but these experiences only fit the juniors more fully for their coming position as seniors. 22 MINNEHAHA ACADEMY Bitk Row—B Four. D.

Although its history is as yet very brief, still it is very complete. The sophomores have participated with an outstanding representation in debate, declamatory. Quiver and Glee Club work. They have enthusiastically entered into the activities of Minnehaha Academy and have truly lived up to her ideals. If one may judge the future by the past the graduating class of ’38 will have accomplished much. 23 THE 1936 QUILL Bj(1 Row V Johnton, G. I� «win, A H«m. H Tromtimi, C Wigrtn. D. E iwin«. A Ncl� on.

The freshman is considered very verdant and unsophisticated by the mighty senior. He is subject to much degradation at the hands of the upperclassmen. However, if he has any hopes to attain the position of valedictorian, he is urged to form his ambition early for this coveted stage is reached only by sustained effort throughout the entire high-school career. In an attempt to acquaint the freshmen with their fellow students the Reception and Open House Night were held at the beginning of the school year. The reception was held exclusively for the freshmen and their parents while Open House was held to acquaint the families of all the students with the teachers of Minnehaha Academy. In September the Freshman Class numbered only sixteen, but by the beginning of the second term it had increased to twenty-six. The Freshman Class has to a man pledged its loyalty to Minnehaha Academy. MINNEHAHA ACADEMY Bjck Row—P. Djhlbrnf. I Wrnle, A Juhiuon. W, Cook. B Carlton. A Jcnirn. M Wigwo. G Berg. E.

E Serin BIBLE INSTITUTE President Vice President Secretary Hazel Danielson Oscar I.arson Ardelle Griswold A KING’S business involves such an extensive territory that it is necessary for it to be entrusted in different fields of work to worthy representatives. Therefore any one who receives an appointment as an ambassador is looked upon as having a high and honorable position. The King demands efficiency of His servants. Therefore the two years spent in the Bible Institute of Minnehaha Academy have been years of preparation. The inspiration, true wisdom and Christian fellowship have been vital parts of that preparation. The experience gained by the practical work at missions, institutions, homes and churches has contributed much to the spiritual development. An ambassador who does his work well and remains faithful to the end will receive recognition from the King. He will receive his just pay and honorary medals. But you who serve the King have your reward in a fruitful ministry, experiencing the joy of being a blessing to some one and always with the hope of pleasing Him. watching and working until that day when you shall receive the crown of the faithful and hear those blessed words. Well done, thou good and faithful servant. SNOWBOUND MINNEHAHA SINGERS DEBATE STUDENT COUNCIL C. C. A. QUIVER QUILL ATHLETICS THE 1936 QUILL lljck Row—H Hallquui. M l’fl i� oo. D. Palmer. P.

Pearson, have made notable progress in their singing during the past year. They have had an especially busy season of eleven concerts in all. The majority of these appearances have been in local churches, including The First Covenant and First Lutheran Churches of St. Paul, and the Swedish Taber nacle. Elim Covenant. Broadway Temple and First Baptist Church of Minneapolis. Besides this, they have been on two tours, one to Lund. Wisconsin and the other to Duluth. On May 8. they, together with the North Park Girls’ Glee Club, presented an all school concert at Minnehaha Academy. A request program was also presented at the Swedish Art Institute. Robed in white gowns, they have not only attained a unity in tonality and spirit, but also in appearance. The Minnehaha Singers are purchasing these gowns through their concerts with the aid of the Junior Women’s Covenant Auxiliary. The repertoire of the chorus includes twenty-one selections. Among these are Reissiger s Lord of Spirits. Hallelujah Amen from Judas Maccabaeus by Handel. Sunbeam. and Christ Is Here, both by Christiansen. Ivanoff's majestic writing. Bless the Lord. and Three Men Trudging by Gaul. Besides these are Fireflies. Minnehaha Memories.” and Hospodi Pomilui. Also appearing with the choir at their concerts have been the Trumpeters, consisting of Mary Ellen Peterson. Luverne Carlson. David Currer. Carl Elving and Wesley Roos. MINNEHAHA ACADEMY hj k Row—D.

H DjmrWon 1 HE STUDENT Council consists of the presidents of the various classes and the vice presidents of the Junior and Senior Classes. One main purpose of the Council besides preparing the weekly chapel programs is to act with the faculty as a body of student representatives to maintain the best spirit of cooperation in all school relations. i The Council of Christian Activities is a recently-organized group of high-school students. Its aim is to have more high-school students participate in Christian activities. It has realized its aim during the past year by giving programs at more than twelve churches with about sixty students taking part. Ri(V Row R Rotrngrrn. D. Id win Front Row— SI Erirtnn. N. Andrrton.

I Wot in DEBATE TWENTY-TWO candidates reported for practice when Coaches Levander and Ahlstrom issued the call for forensic participants. Of this number only four were veterans of previous inter-scholastic debates. Candidates made up in interest what they lacked in experience and improved so rapidly that of the thirty-one debates they entered they dropped only fifteen. Later in the season the squad was cut to twelve and still later to seven. These seven formed the nucleus of the squad for the remainder of the season. Three of them joined the National Forensic League Chapter at Minnehaha. Two of the veterans achieved the degree of excellence which is next to the highest honor a debater can achieve.

Norman Anderson Gladys Swanson .... Evelyn Strom President Vice President Secretary Treasurer STUDENTS who enjoy writing or studying literature find an interest in the Quill Club. Some enter with the purpose of using the ability which they already have and others join to develop ability. We have all profited by our periods of study in Quill, becoming acquainted with the different phases of prose and poetry. There are forty-eight members this year. Every two years a Quill is published as the school annual by the Quill Club, and the Antler is edited by the Senior Class of the alternate years.

Adviser 32 MINNEHAHA ACADEMY A MORNING REHEARSAL WITH THE MINNEHAHA SINGERS “ALL RIGHT. The desk gets a couple of raps with the baton. Lord of Spirits. our dear director's voice rings out in a commanding tone, and the twenty-four of fifty in the choir who have bravely arrived at eight o'clock begin weakly on the selection. At about 8:15 the whole choir is there and ready for work—and a good time—with the exception of Marjorie Hognander who strolls into practice dewy-eyed and sleepy at 8:25 (it seems to be a habit). After a bad attempt at Fireflies. Mr. Pearson stops us and commences to read announcements, usually made quite interesting through his genius at clowning. He tells about the gleaming white robes that are being made for us so there'll be no excuse if we don't make the choir lofts look like an abode of angels: and oh! the collapsible stands, they add to our dignity by making us appear as symmetrical as a fir tree. Occasionally a word is put in about approaching tours which elevates our spirits. Then we begin the haunting strains of a Russian Folk Song that we call Minnehaha Mcm'ries.” (It brings thoughts of a pumping German band to our minds.) Our Bachelor of Music soon discovers that one of our best (most depressed in scale of pitch) basses, namely Numie (Norman Anderson) has laryngitis and is unable to sing. Mr (Simon Lcgree) Pearson gets the pretty notion to lend the trained baton to poor Numie and have him direct the singers. His queer antics arouse laughter: but. all kidding aside, he's really a swell conductor! Then our beloved director pops the “pleasant surprise that he intends to give each member an opportunity to direct the chorus .... sighs, ahs. and ohs from the singers. So. it has been the plight of many of our dear friends to get up in front and do the best possible not to make a complete nit-wit of themselves, and at the same time swing the baton around. Only a few of us more fortunate, have been allowed to remain peacefully at our places during rehearsal, but we hear cruel reminders that “our chance is yet to com:. Again a sharp rap of the baton on the desk, and we are told that our attempt at Sun Beams wasn't as beaming as it should have been. Now watch me. and nothing else.” we are warned. “Now I'll test you to see if you know what my signals mean.” With clenched fist and determined look on his fair countenance. Mr. Pearson asks. What do I mean when I do this?” He, expecting an intelligent answer like “more volume. was more than slightly surprised when the smart-aleck Holmberg yells. Look out! After going through many queer, laughter-provoking facial expressions and exercises for fingers, hands, and arms, we youngsters have it down pretty well what he means and expects us to do hereafter when he performs thus for us. The 8:55 bell rings and we close with the song. Now th. Day is Over (although it has hardly begun). “Bow your heads when we reach the second word. we are told: but instead of getting a pretty, graceful, reverent effect, all heads jerk downward at the same time like a placid wheat field suddenly struck by a gale—but we arc consoled by the thought that practice makes perfect, and that after more attempts, we will lock like gentle daffodils bowing their heads in the lazy summer breeze. ii THE 1936 QUILL Back Row—W ObrrR.

A Andrrtoo ATHLETICS ATHLETICS at Minnehaha have been given considerable attention during the past two years due to the renewed interest in this phase of school life. With basketball marking the beginning of the athletic season and tennis climaxing the school year. Minnehaha athletes are kept physically fit throughout their high-school career. In the late fall all basketball candidates were called to the gym for practice. There were nineteen boys present. Finally, after considerable shifting of the various members, the squad was cut to nine members. The season opened in a thrilling victory for the Minnehaha Quint, with Echo high school as the losers. Songs, cheering and distinguished athletes added to the entertainments. With victories over White Bear High. Augsburg Freshmen. and Bethel Junior College and close battles with Breck and Concordia the season ended with twenty victories. 3-1 MINNEHAHA ACADEMY Baseball Cheer headers Girls' Athletics Tennis ATHLETICS THE baseball team boasts members that show their ability at the plate and in the field. With many seasoned veterans and many younger stars occupying positions of importance the season wound up with the alumni game on homecoming day. Tennis is a sport which is annually growing in the favor of the student body. Matches arc arranged at which Minnehaha Academy stars exercise their skill against that of stars from other schools. Not only are the boys given an opportunity in athletics, but the girls, likewise, have their weekly classes. Their basketball ability, which for the most part had been acquired through the capable coaching of Miss Fellroth. was climaxed in a brilliant game between the junior and senior teams with the juniors conquering the upperclassmen. 35 OPEN HOUSE DIARY SNAPSHOTS WHO’S WHAT THE 1936 QUILL DIARY September 9- 10—Registration 1 1—Opening chape! service I 2—Rev.
