In the year 1902 the following of the present Senior class enrolled in the first grade: Vera Ralph, Ivy Taylor, Agnes Assenmacher, Christine Iles, Fredrica Haug, Frances Herold and Arthur Leak. All of these completed the eight grades in this school, with one exception, Agnes Assenmacher attended the Parochial school for four years. She again joined the class in the Freshmen year. While in the second grade, Otis Smith joined the class and in the seventh grade Edward Ochse became one of the number. The other class was composed of the following: Bertha Campbell, Margaret Dennis, Mildred Guffy, Erma Leak and Herbert Jordan who began their school life in 1903. This class had the advantage that by the time they left the eighth grade, the ninth had been discontinued so they entered the Freshman class in 1911. Of this class, some have married, some have moved to other parts and others have gone to work here in Seneca. The married ones are: Sylvia fHockJ Grimm, Susie fBendonj Bennett, Vera fGunnJ Forbes. Gladys Alexander, Ella Bendon, Tryphenia Jones, Helen Purviance, Grace Britt, Martha Michailis, Geneva Kellar, Irene Brewer, Palmer Jones, Merrill Schlaegal, Harry Myers, do not reside in Seneca. Wilda Stine, Gladys and Lila Ott are telephone girls in Seneca, Cecil Bendon, Cecil Nash, Helena Neely, and Lesh Neely, are still at home. Erma Paxton, Grace Hassen, Virginia Bruner, Fannie Wetmore, Zella Bruner, Helen Zimmerman, Harold Gage, John Crandall, Earl Henderson and Williiam Crandall are planning on being Seniors next year. Early in it's Freshmen year this class showed lively spirit in organization. Officers elected were: Gladys Alexander, Presidentg Grace Britt-, Secretary, Philip W'eyant, Treasurer. Class colors were chosen and a collection taken to purchase the fine pennant which now adorns the east wall of the assembly hall. At the beginning of their Sophomore year officers were again elected: Herbert Jordan, President, Erma Leak, Secretary-Treasurer. A new member Everett Price, joined the class that year. About this time they began to look down from the dizzy position upon the Freshmen below, although some members became aware that they had to get down and work to hold this high position. When the class enrolled as Juniors there were but sixteen members in the class. The following officers were elected: Herbert Jordan, Presidentg Erma Leak, Sec- retary-Treasurer. All worked very hard and looked forward with pleasure to the day when they would be noble Seniors. There was much discussion and excitement over the annual banquet to be given the Seniors, but all went well and it was re- marked that it was the best arranged banquet ever given a Senior class by the Juniors. The next event was the Junior-Senior playg The District Attorney given May S, 1914. The Junior class as usual was well represented in the cast and helped materially in carrying that production to a success. A pa1'ty was given at the home of the president and thus ended the eventful year of 1914. We hope the history of this class will have been faithfully depicted in this year book for the year 1914-'15.
