Lincoln High School students assembled around the school's statue of Abraham Lincoln during this Memorial Day (May 29) 1924 celebration honoring veterans as well as the martyred President after whom the school has been named. The outdoor ceremony replaced the indoor ones of previous years and was sponsored by school service organizations, Knights of Lincoln and the Takolah Club. Lincoln High School can be seen in the background with the original stadium bowl to the right. (TNT 5/30/1924, pg. 13) TPL-3199, Boland-B10167

During the 1924 Memorial Day ceremony at Lincoln High School, Eunice Huseby, left, president of the Takolah Club, and Florence Anderson, right, president-elect, placed a floral wreath at the foot of the school's statue of Abraham Lincoln.

Santa's helpers. Six members of the Lincoln High School News returned to school on December 19, 1922, loaded down with used toys that were donated by generous Lincoln High students. The newspaper staff had traveled to student homes to collect the toys, most of which were in need of repair. Thanks to the school newspaper, and the hard work of the manual training, sewing and art classes at Lincoln, many local children would receive toys that had been refurbished until they were as good as new. The steady and skillful hands of Lincoln's students repaired toys ranging from tricycles, drums, kiddie cars, and sleds to automobiles, toy horses, chairs & beds and hundreds of dolls. The school hoped to make their Santa's Workshop an annual event. An article in the December 24, 1922, Sunday Ledger identified the students in the above photograph as (l to r): Carl Schmid, Lloyd Eberhart, Morrill Folsom, Constance Markuson, Norma Huseby and John McKown. G20.1-209 (Tacoma Sunday Ledger, 12-24-22, magazine section).

Lincoln High School students were Santa's helpers in 1922 when they reached out to make Christmas a merrier time for many local children. Students had donated used toys which were refurbished and made "new" by the sewing, art, and manual training classes on campus. The newspaper staff of the Lincoln High School News started the drive by traveling to various homes to pick up donations. They are believed to be pictured above along with the numerous dolls, balls, books and other toys they collected. G21.1-172 ( See Boland B7041 for additional article and photographs of the enterprising students)

In February of 1922, Manley Edwards (extreme right, front row) was elected president of Lincoln High School's newly organized Radio Club. The club had attracted over 40 male and female students, many of whom were licensed radio operators, and was looking to add more members. Faculty advisor A.J. Bell had organized classes in radio which were held during school hours and were taught by club members. The Board of Education had given a gift of $150 to buy a radio set, but the club members decided to build their own instead using the school's electrical shop. Names of the club members were listed in the Tacoma Daily Ledger's April 5, 1922, issue. TPL-3196; G47.1-003 (Lincolnian March 1922, p. 16-article; Lincolnian April 1922, p. 12-article; TDL 4-5-22, p. 4)

ca. 1913. The cornerstone for Lincoln Park High School in Tacoma was laid on Labor Day September 1, 1913, and it opened on August 31, 1914. The Patriotic Sons of America petitioned the school board to change the school's name, and in 1917 it officially became Lincoln High School. That same year the first edition of the school publication "The Lincolnian" was published; from 1914 through 1916 Stadium H.S. and Lincoln Park H.S. shared "The Tahoma" as a joint monthly journal and yearbook. Enrollment the first year was 850 students, of whom 100 were seniors.
