om(r ereial Ias5 history, s i C AST year there were four graduates from the Com¬ mercial Department of our school, three girls and one boy. This year four girls and one boy re¬ ceive certificates. When we entered our class num¬ bered ten. Changes of residences and other reasons have reduced the class to its present number. To those who w r ere our former classmates, Edith Wilson, Ruth Winans, Charley McNally, Rudolph Peterson and Ernest Wilder, we wish the highest success in their .several undertakings, and regret their absence from our number this evening. Cut in half as it was, our class still retained five very happy members. In our school life we were noted more than less for mischief, for what one failed to think of the others did, and the poor lone boy’s vote was hardly if ever considered on any question. Really Ernest Jacobsen deserves special mention and credit for remaining with a class of four frolicsome girls for two years. Ernest has learned one good lesson that may be of advantage to him through life, he never argues a question, especially in the presence of girls. We name, in order of their mischevious inclinations, poor Ernest’s associates for two long (?) years. Sophie Thompson, the playful kitten of the class, a genuine giggling girl, bubbling over with fun and un¬ controllable merriment. Popping in at one door and out at the next, a veritable jumping-jack, but withal one of the brightest students in her class. In fact dur¬ ing the first half of the Senior year she accepted and filled with credit to herself and teacher, a position as stenographer in the Petaluma Savings Bank. Her employer spoke in the highest terms of her ability. So after all we are proud of our Kitten. Mabel Breckwoldt and Til lie Fredericks, the insepa¬ rable twins ! What would the one do if the other dear charmer were away? Forever and forever tantalizing each other. Is it to assist in the putting on of a coat? Presto ! A sleeve is instantly turned inside out, and no end of struggling ensues. Is it to get the book¬ keeping sets from the closet. Act one, scene one, from “Alfonso and Gaston.” Continually the students are treated (?) to some gigling performance by the two
