Pag® Twenty Sesti i Cla i oUtilosuf That's what education means—to be able to do what you've never done before. —George Herbert Palmer. If Mr. Palmer's quotation is true, the class of 1939 will leavo Minnehaha Academy with more than an adequato amount of knowledge, for wo have succeeded in doing many things heretofore unaccomplished. With heads high and noses proudly in the air seventeen of us enterod Minnehaha Academy in 193S. feeling not at all as lowly Freshmen should. From the beginning we took part in school activities, making ourselves seen and heard everywhere—especially in Mr. Peterson's office. In the fall of our Sophomore year we had a weiner-roast in honor of one of our class members. David Edwins, who left us to go to China with his parents. During this year we continued our escapades, but by diligently applying ourselves to tho task of studying, wo gained sufficient knowledge to allow us to become Juniors. In the annual North Park Debate, wo gained another victory over our friendly enemy, through the debating of Orloue Glssol-quist. Departing from traditions, our Junior-Sonior Banquet was held at the Y. W.C. A. in S . Paul, instoad of in the school dining hall. At commencement the Junior girls were gracious as ushers. We were in our glory when wo returned in the fall of 1938 to fill tho shoes of Seniors. This year football was Introduced in our sport schedule, but the one gamo that was played, we lost. Another innovation, the school orchestra, was organized, the Soniors taking an important part in this. The Minnehaha Singers gave several concerts, and early in May journeyed to Gustavus Adolphus College to participate in the annual music festival. Ellen Gerdlund represented our class in the North Park debate, and again we were victorious. Breathlessly wo rushed into the excitement of graduation events. Tho Junior-Senior banquet, this year held at the Y. M. C. A. in Minneapolis, Senior Day, and Baccalaureate Sunday came In rapid succession. Now on Class Night. June 7, 1939, wo are anticipating our two final class evonts. The first of these is a Class Breakfast in the school dining hall on the morning of our graduation day, Friday, June 9. Sharing special honors at tho Commencement exercises will be LaVeme Larson, valedictorian, and Ellon Gerdlund. salutatorlan. Then, with our diplomas clasped tightly in our hands, we. the Class of '39. will confidently take our places among the illustrious alumni of Minnehaha Academy. After having spent four happy years horo where we have been constantly impressed with the truth that the end of all learning is to know God , we reverently breathe in parting: Father, Thou, whoso mighty arm ruloth over land and sea Bless and shield from every harm—Minnehaha Aca toniy. The Last WUl and Testament of the 1939 Graduating Class Re-Scramble We. the Class of '39, in order to form a more perfect unitty, establish fairness.
