Mrs NJ. F. Johnson was called on for
a speech, and said she left that branch
to other members of the family. She
was very glad to see the formation of
an association. Only one other member
of her class was present and there We're
only seven in the class, all of whom
were girls. She anticipated many
pleasant reunions that would bind the
graduates more closely together.
Mrs w H H. Wiley, the other men,
Der of the mystic" seven that COM
posed the class was also called on, and
responded briefly.

Secretary Arnold, being called on.
said he thought that much might be
done by the association in securing a
new High School building that would
be a credit to the city and was so much
needed if the members would all work
unitedly for that end Such action
would have great influence in the mat
ter, and he hoped the association would
take hold of the subject
Mr.. Waring also spoke to the same
effect and hoped that by the next meet
ing of the alumni they would not have
to talk about the necessity of con-
structing a new building, but would
find the matter well under way. A mu-
nicipal campaign will soon be on the
carpet and such are the times in which
such efforts can be successfully made
D. E. Alexander said that, when he
came to Sacramento in 1854, the united
number of the pupils in the city schools
did not exceed that of those present
He gave a sketch of the High School
since that time and said it's necessities
now far exceeded its capacity.
Wilton Shuhaw of the class of '97,
gave a graphic description of the
crowded condition of the High School
and the sufferings of the pupils from
the heat. on that account.
