1913 WOLSNIWANOZIRA “Her locks were like the links of gold.” Entered in January from the Flagstaff State Normal. ESTHER ROSS Present Senior Class History Oil one September morning, 1910, there assembled at the North Grammar School a little band of eight students that formed the nucleus of the present high school. As there were only six teachers in the schools at that time. Miss Buxton, the Principal, and Miss Myers taught all the high school Cora ('reswell from the San Diego high school. We were one class of freshies that escaped hazing by upper classmen for the simple reason that there were no upper classmen. As a whole it was an uneventful year. Ada Taylor was married in February, 1911. As Sophomores we were too busy with our studies to bother with the Freshmen. Our number at this time had decreased to five by withdrawals. We organized a High School Literary Society this year, but it was short lived. The basketball team played a couple of games with the eighth grade, but as a whole but few high school activities were compassed. At the beginning of this year we did not feel the need of organizing, as all of the larger classes did. as there were only two survivors of the rigor of the course of study. However, as our number has been augmented by the entrance of Esther Ross from the Flagstaff Normal and Florine Xeugebauer from the Pasadena high school, we have since organized regularly and obtained a charter from Miss Powell. We are all very proud of the met that we will be the first class to graduate from the Winslow Accredited High School. N. H. 13

WOLSNIWANOZIRA 1913 True worth is in being, not seeming: In doing each day that goes by onie little good not in the dreaming Of great things to do by and by. For whatever men say in blindness. And spite of the fancies of youth. There’s nothing so kingly as kindness. And nothing so royal as truth. Wo get back our mete, as we measure; e cannot do wrong and feel right: Nor can we give pain and feel pleasure. For justice avenges each slight. The air for the wing of the sparrow. The bush for the robin and wren. But always the path that is narrow And strait for the children of men. 1 lie student is not inclined to measure life by years or decades, but rather by the wholesome culture of the mind. This culture brings an enlargement of power, a greater capacity to discharge the functions of life and makes it possible for the mind to range in a more splendid field. Although such mental development enlarges the duties and responsibilities, it also greatly multiplies the joy of living as well as the hopes and ambitions of future years. 14
