Fifty-five, the, largest number ever, cast their lot with the ci Si ,of 1915 and enrotied in a Senior Class, and thereby became grave, grave Seniors. Alter much serious thought the lollowmg people were honored uy tne class in being made its otiicers: Earl Ganschow — President. Wyatt Harper — Vice-President. Ulareuce itoeser — secretary.

Next we ordered our cards and announcements which in our mind are extremely well chosen. Then came the Senior Play which was an immense success. The cast rehearsed for ten weeks under the skilful direction of the Misses Morgan and (Joney and nnaiiy pre- sented the play without a flaw. The play paved the way for a feel- ing of ease on financial matters for approximately eleven hundred attended the play. The class then finished its school work and entered into the strenuous Graduation week. We were right royally entertained by the Juniors and made an effort to repay by a Senior Return. Then on June 24, 1915, we said good-bye to old Arthur Hill and entered the world. ; . i u ■ Farewell to high school life ; but our work has merely begun. May we carry as much energy into the good works in the world as we have shown in those school affairs with which we were con- nected. , t Where, Oh where, are the grave old Seniors?

A yearning that the class do something was expressed by all. As a result of this desire for action the members of the class estab- lished the first precedent in their career and gave a dance calling it the Sophomore Social . The party was a success both socially and financially. In its second year the Sophomore class supplied its first quota of athletic men for the various teams of the schoo . Where, Oh where, are the gay young Sophomores? Where, Oh where, are the gay young Sophomores? Where, Oh where, are tbe gay young Sophomores? Safe, safe, in the Junior class. The next year with a class role of ninety we. entered upon the career of the merry, merry Juniors. Tndeed they were merry days and days of solid enjoyment and pbasure. The class chose very capable officers to guide them thru the social activities which are sure to come to the least responsive body of Juniors. The officers were : Richard Khuen — President. Earl Ganschow — Vice -President . Orton Goodsell — Secretary. Ford Curtis — Treasurer. The first opportunity for the school to appreciate the Junior class was at the Junior Dance. The ext time honoring function + be undertaken was the Junior Hor The Hop proved to be the most successful both socially and financially that had ever been given by any preceding class. The next event was the first annual Jimior Play — a precedent which startled the school. The cast under the direction of the Misses Morgan and Coney presented a very pleasing comedy in the play The Merchant of Venice Up to Date . The play was a srreat success financially also, the class reaping about one hundred dol- lars. The Juniors certainly made a good impression upon the retir- ing Seniors in the annual Junior Bannuet. The Banquet took place at the Fordney and proved a very delightful occasion. After being served a real banquet, after-dinner speeches were heard, followed by the presenting of the horn. We srot away with it too. After being the guests of the Senior Class at the delightful Senior Return Banquet, the class retired for vacation before their strenuous Senior year. Where, Oh where, are the jolly, jolly Juniors? Where, Oh where, are the jolly, jolly Juniors? Where, Oh where, are the jolly, jolly. Juniors? Safe, safe, in the Senior class.
