We ' ll keep doing our very best Until at last we ' ve won. Excelsior for a motto. And God above for a guide ; Upward and onward shall we go ' Till we ' ve reached the Great Divide. And when at last we ' re through The I ' oad to sure success, We ' ll know ' twas made by you, Our dear S. A. H. S. —EDNA ANDERSON. 18

(Ha s History A( ' l ill Scptciiilici-, ;ili(iii1 si ' cii1, ' of llic iiiosf vcrdaiil jirnducls of Siiiit ' lowci- and adjciniiij; ' counties caiiic to .Mcorlicad. wiici-c, under the tutelajie of Professor Vandiver and liis associates tliey were destined (o make liis- tory and bring more fame and f lory to tlie dear old institution. After ()injj ' throu ili tlie iieeessaiy process of rentin 2: eliapel seats and pur- chasinfj ' shoe-wearin - privile ies, tliis green ])uiieli was enrolled as members of tlie Fi ' esliiiian Class, and passed an uneventful year as such. When the Sophomore year rolled around most of the old gang was back. Being Hophomoi ' es was not so bad, for they were one year nearer Seniordoiii, and felt that they were due much respect from the Freshmen. The third fall found the Junior Class altout si.xty strong. Several old mem- bers had dropped out, but their places were taken by new ones who had learned of the S. A. II. S. spirit, and desired to become a part of it. Many notable things were accomi)lished in the thiid year, but in the fourtii, especially, were we to be heard from. When the call was issued for Seniors, almost all the last year ' s Junior Class were present. To start off a brilliant year, four men of sterling ability were named as class officers. IcCain was re-elected presi(l( nt, his ability and leader- ship being unquestioned ; Thomas Hutchins, one of the outstanding figures at this institution, was chosen vice-president; Alex Drane and Kinchen O ' Keefe were made secretary and treasurer, respectively. No men could be found who are abler than these. At a late meeting, Martha Stillions, a girl of sterling qual- ity, was elected reporter for the class. This class of ' 26 had done many notable things in the history. Part of them even assumed school leadershij) in the -lunioi year. The class has stood out in literary work, athletics, and leadership. We believe this to be the greatest class in the history of our Alma Mater. Now, as lay Day approaches, we are expecting to see fifty-six mighty and proud graduates march out of the portals of our noted institution. Ill llillfplllli Pin 17
