Verne Kaub, Isabel Luers, Mabel Huston, Jean McFarland, Nina Martindale, Joseph Moosmiller and Ray Yeoman. Those who have decided to continue their education are Trevor Eger, who will begin a commercial course at Wisconsin University, Arthur Tuteur, who will study law at Michigan University and Edna Wildberg, who will enter a music school at Chicago. Glen Wishard has begun working for the Illinois Steel Company in Chicago, Rufus Knox will clerk in McCoy’s bank, and Orabelle Duvall and Roe Yeoman will probable remain at their respective homes.

Eight members of tbe olass are 17 years, six are 18 years, and the remaining four are 19 years of age. The average age of the class is only 17.8 years. |The pleaeant and profitable year’s work in our High School has, in no small degree been due to the helpful attitude of the Senior olass.
