XVhen a student body, that is full of life and pro- gressiveness has a united faculty of men and women who areinterested and willing to help back them, then they can accomplish wonders. Our faculty this year was full of educated men and women, broadly and rightly informed, in fact, I challenge you to find a better faculty. They entered into every activity and lent their support to every undertaking. No matter how busy they were when approached for help or advice, they never once failed us. Vtle students have seemed unappreciative, We've often taken their services so much for granted, but we do appreciate and we're going to more every year. To our faculty we wish every success and happiness, for they deserve the best the world has to give. As evidenced by the appeal for new buildings and the support given athletics, our Board of Education was strongly back of Murray this year and working hard to see it progress. XVhen they called a bond election for the improvements so obviously needed, we are sorry the people of Murray failed to support them. The board 's interest in school this year was plainly evident by their attendance at all activities, and we sincerely hope that before long they may succeed ingetting for Mur- ray High those things she needs. 2'!:ff':'.::W rurfiim-' -V ' 4.mil'eH I '. 2-

Qlliurrag High Srhnnl 1 The first attempt at high school work in Murray City was made in September, 1913, when the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades were as- sembled at the Hillcrest building under the name of the Hillcrest Junior High. .The faculty for the year was composed of the following members: C. E. Gaufin, principal, E. E. Boggess, Nettie Peterson, M. L. Rowan, Bessie Eaton, Laura Stevens, J. E. Russon, Lenord C. Neilson, NV. F. Rob- inson, Jean Yvinder. Of this number Messrs. Boggess, Rowan, Robinson, and Russon devoted only part of their time to instruction in this school. Each year after its organization an additional year of high school work was added until the full four-year course was offered in 1917. The teaching corps now numbers sixteen and the enrollment is 385. So rapid has been the growth that the buildings, erected in 1914, are now entirely inadequate and new buildings will be necessary if the school is going to continue its growth. Since its organization twenty-seven students have been graduated. They are Irma Sanders, John Wood, Muriel Foster, Elmo Gillen, Verl McMillan, Gene Tripp, Milton Swenson, Ruth Sanders, Margaret Nelson, Denzil Watts, Blanche Jenkins, LaVern Watts, Eudora Watts, Regnal Turner, Lenore McCloy, Madge Howe, Wilford Robinson, Minerva Frame, Clifford Watts, Sylvia Farrer, Arthur Aamodt, Elmer Chris- tensen, William Peters, Nellie Clay, Edward Foord, Hope Gaufin, Gordon Whipple. These graduates are at present the best kind of boosters for the school, as evidenced by their campaign for a new bond election in order that their alma mater may have the same modern facilities that are enjoyed in other progressive high schools. To this number will be added the twenty members of the graduating class of this year. Not only is the influence of these high school graduates felt in school welfare work, but already their influence is being felt in civic affairs. With a civic conscience developed during their high school life it is expected that their participation in community affairs will result in much good, for these young men and women of high ideals will study new situations carefully and line up their strength and influence on the side of Wholesome and progressive movements. Little wonder that M. H. S. is being the most talked-of institution in Murray. 4.533533 4 V T. 'N
