A SPRING VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL 17 of their own, which were almost forgotten when it was made known after the event was over that they were nine cents ahead! A grand celebration was held. and they fcastcd on chocolates. At last these people were Seniors. Their goal was almost reached, although they realized that there was a goal beyond this, which, as eighth graders. they had not seen. Mary Kellner, at this time, found it necessary to leave the class. They were all sorry to see her go. There still were left Bernice Ayres, Mabel Bliesner, Stella Davis. Gail Davis. Charles Fitzgerald, Henry Kirk, Ilelma Lohn, Leona Miller, Arthur Nyeggen, Rachel U'lirien, Ethel Pence, Aylmer I'etan. Ilarry Preston and Ilenry Whitbeck. This class of extraordinarily bright Seniors went cheerfully to work at the beginning of the school year. They realized their position and lived up to it in all matters. During this year it was not necessary' to publicly settle class differences, as the Seniors from the first received the honor due them from other classes. Une ot' these bright Seniors invented a perpetual motion machine, which will be patented as soon as that person is twenty-one. Vommencement week was full to the brim. The usual Senior events took place: the baccalaureate sermon, the class play Nephew or Ifnclef' the Senior Ball and the graduating exercises. This class finished their Iligh School career under Blr. Olson, who was principal of the school during their Sophomore, Junior and Senior years. S'l'I'1l.I.A DAVIS. 1
