Glcuil tJliAtosuf. Dear Friend: I’m a senior now and it seems as though it was only yesterday that my mother scrubbed my face, and peered into my ears and sent me off to school. With apple in one hand and my shiny” pencil box clutched in the other, I met my best friend and we started off, happily, to school. It was in the first grade where I made new friends and started my studies. Miss Dorothy Porter was an understanding teacher and I learned many necessary fundamentals which I have never quite forgotten. In the second grade our teacher was Miss Alice Dwinell. It was this year I went through the painful experience of doing arithmetic. In the third grade under the leadership of Miss Irene Butler I learned more difficult things and began to learn to spell. My first three years in school proved pleasant enough and I looked forward to climbing those stairs. In the fourth grade I found school the most difficult but came through with flying colors,” thanks to Miss Thelma Stearns. I remember we built an igloo and made Eskimo costumes. We also exerted our artistic talent and arranged an Indian village in the sand box. I guess the high light of the year was the operetta, 'Hansel and Gretel. One of our class- mates was Hansel, Arvid Barney. In the fifth grade I remember how thrilled I was when I read about King Arthur and His Court.” Under Miss Ila Marshall we had a truly pleasant year.
