Miss Rat Lclaiul is a native of Minnesota and graduated from High School here, after which she went to Columbia where she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree. She has taught school in W inona and Duluth before coming to the I'niversitv of Minnesota High School. She is an instructor in English as well as History. Miss Leland might be called the big sister to the girls and hoys of the school, and she looks after them with the greatest of ingenuity. She has winning airs that force you to regard her as a friend upon her first appearance. (The (Class of Nineteen Huuhrch IFiftecn The Senior class not only feels a pride in being the first class to graduate from the new building, but also congratulates itself upon being the largest class that ever passed the portals of the University High School. W e were indeed fortunate in having half of our class old members of the school, which fact greatly helped to establish a mutual feeling of friendship among the newer members. What a skilful artist one would need to he to appropriately portray our Senior class. There are the commanding stature and dignity of Paul Dudley; the blue eyes and penetrating look of Ida Kiel; the ponderosity of Emily Anderson; the woolly facial crop of Warner Hagbcrg; the ambition of Leon Schall; the congenial disposition of ()ra, and the winning smile of Bernadette. Enter the classroom on a busy day, and every day is a busy day, and you would find everyone, especially in our grammar class, engaged in the unending struggle of bringing words into subjection and whipping phrases and clauses into line, and this is the day Thelma would like to have played hookey. Our education is not being confined to books alone. W e have learned that only by industry, honesty, cheerfulness and a tenacity of purpose may we hope to reach the goal: that, after all. nothing worth while can be acquired except by-hard work; that the mastery of self is the great thing in achievement. W e acknowledge our indebtedness and express our gratitude to our teachers who so painstakingly guided us through difficulties and over rough places as well as along the more rosy paths. We are. I believe, pardonably proud of what we have accomplished, and we think we can hear future classes singing— ‘In the world’s broad field of battle. In the bivouac of life. They, unlike dumb-driven cattle. All were heroes in the strife.

(Class of 19 Mi As our time to leave the old school draws near, we find that our former anxiety is giving place to a regretful reluctance. Although anxious to see what the world has in store for us. we dislike breaking away from our old associates. ()ur ambitions are varied. Some are in search of social prestige: others are hoping to obtain further athletic prominence, and some few are determined to give their entire time to work, in order that they may become prominent citizens and powerful factors in the business life of our great city. Whatever our line of endeavor, we are going into it with a whole-souled determination to stand for squareness and principle, hour years training in the best school in Minneapolis has imbued us with the determination to stand for the right.—John Jerome. (The (Class of (Direr There were three boys sat on a tree. ()h. hip. hip. hip. hurrah. They formed the famous class of three. ()h, hip. hip. hip, hurrah. ()h. one carried five and the other three.

And as the time to leave drew near. They worried and worried and shed many a tear. I hit the teachers felt sorry for these poor boys.
