announcements by Mr. Gary. Follow
ing these, Amelia Paulin, salutatorian,
gave her address, .
The class poem, written and given
by Annette Adcock, was well applaud
ed.
. The class history by Ruth Lund
told of the many social functions
which had been given by or for the
class of ’24 and of the many activities
in which they had taken a part.
A vo<?al solo, “Out on the Deep” by
Mr. R. E. Jackson, science teacher,

very fitting account of the future, fif
teen years after the class, of *24 left
