money-making project proved to be successful. We wish you as good luck, friend Juniors, for you know, as we understand it, last year ' s Seniors were not quite so successful as we were. ' Tis not the strain of the wedding march that strikes our ear, but we hear the wail of our graduation march as we proudly step forth to greet the brother mortal more advanced in years than we who stands before us. The curtain falls, and we are no longer bona-fide members of old Arthur Hill, but only in the realms of memory can we cherish such thoughts.

The Club held its first meeting of the year on October 19, 1920. At this meeting, officers were elected for the first semester. We chose for our President, Ruth Avery; Vice-President, Isla Jones; Secretary and Treasurer, Martin Martzowka. With this body of competent officers, President Avery began her term by appointing a Social and Program Committee. At the opening meeting Miss Vanderhoof, Mr. Rickerman, and a few other faculty members, were the guests of the Club. The speaker of the evening was Mr. Boyd, one of Saginaw ' s prominent surveyors. The second meeting was held at this High School on November 9, 1920. At this time, the program committee presented the program w ' hich they had prepared. The program was very interesting and was accepted unanimously. The third meeting was held November 30, 1920. The ready response of the members to our requests for music was a source of en- joyment. Several good musicians gave us enjoyable additions to the regular program. On Monday evening of December 20th a Christmas entertainment was given in Pioneer Hall. A splendid and amusing program was given

Senior Class Notes Not being of a ranting turn of mind as most Seniors are inclined to be, but of a cautious, watchful, and penetrating nature. We, the members of the Class of ' 21 make no claim to pomp or ceremony, but pass that by as being something that kings alone can enjoy. So, when we sailed into port and dropped anchor as members of the Senior Class of 1921, we sought not to amaze and beguile the other members of our barracks by publishing a list of projects that we intended to put into practice; but set about to organize and become fitted to equal the pace set by our predecessors. We made excellent use of our time, and by the seventeenth of September, ha d elected the finest group of officers that ever under- took to pilot the flagship of any fleet through the boisterous seas of edu- cation. Here they are, folks. Remember them always as worthy repre- sentatives of the Class of ' 21. Having now organized our executive forces, we turned our thoughts to moneyed matters and succeeded in extracting from each member of our class, a promise to pay, to the treasurer of the class, the sum of two dollars. Now that we had some money, the question was, what would we do with it? Now isn ' t that a foolish question to ask a Senior? Well, just to start the ball a rolling, and just to see how fast we could get rid of it, we appointed the Seniors who were to edit the Legenda. The Legenda, you know, is the paper in which all the note- worthy happenings and history-making events that occur during our stay in Arthur Hill are recorded, so that they might be referred to as a guide by the aspiring and worshipping members of the lower classes. Now, having succeeded in expending all the money that we had been fortunate enough to procure, we had to devise a plan whereby we could make money. This necessitated the appointing of a committee to select a play, so upon Sept. 27, 1920, we launched our first money- making project by selecting a group of five Seniors who were delegated to choose a play which would be suitable for public presentation. This committee labored incessantly to procure a play that would approach somewhere within the realms of novelty, but as time wore on, and the much sought for play failed to make its appearance, the play committee had to be contented with one of the very first plays that had been con- sidered and so this year, we Seniors presented The Man on the Box, a rollicking comedy in three acts. Somebody page the fellow who invented mottos, at least, the one who wrote the motto under which we have been promenading. Just think of it! We, the Seniors of the Class of ' 21 took an oath upon the high altar of education that from the third day of January, nineeen hundred and twenty-one, we would be square to everyone we met, be he friend or foe, Freshman or Junior, said oath to be considered binding until we, as a class, sever our shackles and strike out for an individual goal. Well, it was as a New Year ' s resolution, made to be broken. Jove, did you go to our party? Oh, boy, wasn ' t it great to walk about under that nifty arrangement of blue and white streamers and just gloat upon that fine musical program! But that is nothing compared to what really took place, for we actually made money and so our second Bessie Close Duane Chamberlain Herbert Wettlaufer Robert Allardyce President Vice-President Treasurer -Secretary

through the efforts of our members. Our program consisted of several short playlets and recitations, and at the close of it Santa Claus dis- tributed gifts to all of us. Our next meeting was held March 8, 1921. At this meeting, Mr. Humes of the Y. M. C. A. spoke on a very interesting subject which he entitled Keep Agoing. Immediately after this talk, we elected our officers for the second semester. Miss Ella Haines was elected President; Frank McDermid, Vice-President; Martin Martzowka, Sec- retary and Treasurer. The Club has been a success throughout, and those who neglected to join or attend the meetings surely lost something which they will never be able to regain.

The programs given this year have been greatly vained, from the best music played before the various Parent-Teacher ' s Clubs, to the popular programs given before the High School Assemblies, all have been received with enthusiasm. The first formal occasion was the Junior Play at which time, the orchestra played an interesting program before the curtain and between acts. On April sixteenth they furnished the music for a successful All-School Party, playing for the dancing from eight to ten. On May twentie th the orchestra goes to compete in the State Musical Contest at Mt. Pleasant, along with many older and more experienced players, but they hope to bring back some recognition to
