A:-A as V gave-Tqfazmaomafk 3l7'7'i'f'A and three creditably represented the school in the debating league. Moreover, all have been intimately connected with high school activities, two have held positions as president of the Student Body, one as Editor, and now as Business Manager of Waunomah. All these achievements we count as nothing compared with those far greater ones, the education of the mind and the broadening of our interests. How we shall profit by this and how it has fitted us to meet 'the hard problems of life yet remains to be seen. Here's to the class of the year '16, The jolliest one that ever was seeng But our High School days are nearly o'er, And the dear old school will see us no more. We've tried a model class to be, But, of course, some failings you'll always see. For Edith and Ethel, tho' bright as sun's rays, Like to play hooky on warm spring days. And Winfield, well, for the greater part, Is always considered our English Shark. And Edward, tho' he's very bright, Stays out of sehool 'til his grades are a fright. Icophene is the dreamy kind, Who generally leaves the world behind, Until called back to earth by the frightful tests, Which we all regard as terrible pests. Athletic stars we do not lark, And tho' we all work for the orange and black, l'is Clark and Booke and Harland, too, Who have played as no one else can do. ln our Senior year a new member we greet, Then June came in, her course to completeg For she, too, felt this class was best, ln choosing it from all the rest. Of her who w1'ites these bits of verse, I.et's say but littlcg to be terse, 'Twere better said of her that she Is happy in this class to be. And this in number is the Senior class, The third from Washougal High to pass. And in the future we'll do-oh, well, Of course, that only time can tell. ' Runv Fnssnxm-:N, '16,

seem freeing .Qffaamomah ee A Juniors When we CIIIIIO back the next yea: as Sopholnores we immediately began to gain a position of still more honor in the school. Our first deed was to teach the Freshmen to honor the upper classes, which we did hy giving a recep- tion for them and initiating each one into our midst. Additional athletic honors were XVOIX by the members ot' the class, and Illtllly ol' our number held important Student Body offices. The track pennant became our property again that year, a11d we also won the Pacific University Clee Club trophy. Four Sophomores held positions on the iiilllllllllllllll staff. where they worked hard t'o1' the success ot' the Annual. Then the examinations were again passed with very creditable grades. Now. as .Iuniors, we are very proud ol' our class. We have lost some students, but have gained others, so, although the names on the roll are quite dit't'erent than when we were Ifreshmen, we still have twelve members. Those twelve students tAlma Kern, Ellen Geer, Rhoda Henion, Kathryn Keep, Wallace Weger, Arthur Jones, Lester Kiser, Howard Kiser. Walter Strong, Loren Cochran and Clarence Strongb do not intend to stop working upward, no, indeed: Still more athletic glory has been gained this year. Again the majority of the Annual staff are Juniors, and in the play given for the benefit of tl1e Student Body three ol' the important parts were filled by members of our class. Though exceptionally proud of our honors as Juniors, we still feel that our best year is yet to come. Next year. when we are Seniors. we will do our best to leave the most brilliant record of any class that l1as ever yet graduated. .l is for Juniors, above others we tower.
