RETROSPECTION • To reminisce the events of the past is always an interesting pastime, whether it be of joys or of griefs. So many things have happened during our stay at this school and so many benefits derived that it is impossible to name more than the high spots. The Freshman Class of 1934 and 1935 was very small, as were the members who composed it. This fact made it even more impossible for the Seniors to notice our insignificance. We did our part that year, however, studying hard, and succeeded so well in filling our craniums with diversified knowledge that we were permitted to become Sophomores the next year. The class swelled that year with talented students who caused our class to be noticed. Some of them sang in the choir, some worked on the Quiver, Carol and Joyce Johnson competed in the declamatory contest, and others debated. Study was of minor importance this year, because so much had been learned the year before. Our Junior year came, and we really began to amount to something. I he class was distinguished by having two members win prizes for essays on safety; namely, Charlotte Anderson and Joyce Johnson (although Joyce had been hit by a streetcar the year before, and Charlotte claimed she almost ran over a car while walking just after she had received her prize). Honors were carried off in the annual North Park Debate through the aid of Dean Kngstrom and Millard Haley of the Junior Class. The Quiver claimed the attention of some; the paper coming out anything but bi-weekly as was originally planned—but such is life! This was the year Mr. Peterson had so much trouble about our coming late occasionally. As a remedy, we were told to knock on the door when we arrived to inform him of our presence. He would then come to the door, open it, and escort us in. This caused a lot of amusement, but it almost cured us of coming late. The Junior Christmas party furnished a rollicking good time, but wc went home feeling rather “ba-loony,” which resulted from the decorations. Spring soon came and plans were started for the annual Junior-Senior banquet. With stars as the theme, the committees saw stars wherever they went before the night was over (both literally and figuratively speaking), and even managed to sit on star tacks weeks after the event was over. The affair was a success (in the Juniors’ eyes) despite the fact most of the work was done the same day. With this gone into the past, our day of importance was over, and we sank into oblivion, due to the coming graduation of the Seniors. Our time was spent thinking of ways to fill their shoes when they were gone. With the Junior girls in their glory as ushers, the longed-for graduation finally came. Rodney Rosengren was given the Junior Scholarship, although he wasn’t there to receive it. Swedish prizes were awarded Minnie Carlson and Eleanore Westlund, and they walked up to receive them full of surprise and wonderment. As Seniors wc were entering the higher branches of learning; this inflated our egos to be respected and feared by underclassmen. We were swept into a whirl of activity immediately. Of great importance was the organization of the Engstrom-Loomis-Engstrom Photographic Supply Company, which was watched by the student body with great interest. Helen Ewbank became noted for being the only girl able to survive debate through two years' stay. Our chapel
