I found this old book in some of my Mother's things, and thought you may like a copy of it. Mom (Catherine Roberts) was born in 1915 in Nebraska, but spent her life in Milton. This spelling book is listed as 6th grade. I guess, that would put it somewhere around 1925-1926, depending on when they started school back then.
The second page is a list of the girls in her class. Don't know why she didn't list the boys, but she was around 11, so that may be the answer right there.
