The whole school body knows the history of our class, but just to refreshzyour mind on this subject. we will review it for you. The best football team produced in the last four years was honored with eight mem- bers of our class, who helped us win second place in the conference. Three of our members represented our class on the high school basketball team: a senior captain led each team. The senior girls' basketball team captured the championship for three years, while the boys' team carried off high honors for two years. ln baseball. the senior boys won first place for three years. But outside of the athletic teams, the senior class was well represented. In debate, al- though we lost the class contest in our junior year, we refer you to the present class of '27 as to the results of this year's debate. In triangular debate we were well represented by three members of our class. Our class representatives carried off tirst and second place in the extemporaneous speaking contest. In declamatory, a member of our class received first place in the district contest. In our junior year we staged the best prom in thc history of the school. All in all. we feel our four years in high school were very successful, and although we don't like to hand ourselves any bouquets, we hope we may gracefully say that we have done our share in building one of the best high schools in the state. -JO MCCORhilCK, WlI-LIANlS, Class of IN r lurvri ons GRADUATE l l v1oLA GREENING Sensible, self-possessed people do things quietly and efficiently.

Through our achievements we carry out our motto, "To the Goal," in every line of work or play we undertake. Juniors stand high above all others in each branch they undertake. It was the juniors, nine of them, who upheld the honor of the school and the glory of their class on the football field. We are proud of them! Our class upheld the majority on the basketball team-live out of the nine on the squad-truly a remarkable record. Can we not be proud of them? Vlfe accepted defeat from the seniors in thc annual Junior-Senior debate. Sportsmanlike, we said. "We will do better next time." We won by raising our ambitions: now who really did win, the juniors or seniors? XVe have representatives in other lines-the debate club, extemporaneous speaking, interpretive reading-who if not the juniors. are on the top rung of the ladder of Success, Can we not be proud of our achievements? -DAN Dmscoti..

It belongs to the class of '28, that peppiest of peppy classes, that entered Antigo high in the fall of 1924. Their colors are green and white and they have served as decorations for many occasions. The freshman spread was a valentine party and everyone had a "scrumptious" time. The first year of high school was very exciting and the days were crowded with work and play. But the freshman year was over all too soon and the green ones were sophomores then. They were much more important and entered into the spirit of high school life at once. Officers were elected and an adviser chosen at the first meeting. while later meetings were occupied by discussions about the spread, which, it was decided, would be in the form of a summer party. It was a thrilling sensation to come from a land of ice and snow into a room where palms grew and butterflies flut- tered about. Japanese lanterns and wicker furniture made an appropriate setting and. if one used his imagination. the effect was delightful. Basketball games always brought out the sophomore class, and contests or outside activities were backed by the class at all times. The class of '28 was further distinguished when Alice Sleeter won first place in the local declamatory contest. There is plenty of talent in this peppy class and the junior and senior years will give the '28s a wonderful record. -MARJORIE DUCHAC. P KCI- FORTY-THREE 1 ff f ATE I I I+ L- .. - I ARVESON.

It is the only class which has come very close to the 1001, mark in payment of class dues. The freshmen had a debate squad this year, and, although they did not make the school team this year, they give proof of making championship teams in the next three years. In athletics, the freshmen did very well. In football they had three men on the squad. In basketball they had one man on the first team and eight men on the second team. With a bit moreexperience these boys will be making names for themselves as high school athletes. The freshmen had a good class basketball team, but the breaks seemed to be against them and they usually were on the short end of the score. But because they lost is no sign that they haven't the stuff, Just watch them next year! In all other activities, freshmen have been well up in front. They have supported every school activity in the best manner possible. Of their pep, it is not necessary to comment. - With the experience they gained this year, the freshmen ought to go "over the top" in the next three years. -NORMAN RQCK, PXGE POKTX il! 17 uv' ,ff'51f53v5 ' g -'IY1s:IsG I E 13265142 - If.

We have always striven to play the game fair, and, if we must lose, we lose with fair play rather than to take a victory won by foul means. We take our defeat with a smile, saying that the best team won: if we win, we treat our opponents with courtesy. Every man on the team knows what it means to be a good sportsman for each one has the reputation of the school in his hands, and if he fails to play fair his school must suffer. Our school can be proud of the way its students have striven to live up to the standards of Good Sportsmanship this season and in the past. Undoubtedly, in the future, we will continue to turn out teams composed of men who are True Sportsmen. Pkfl' FIFIX THC P7 iff? '-msc? A I 1826 'flea' l I ! l l COACH EMIGH Antigo may turn out championship teams, but always through their victories show the efforts of Coach Emigh. During the last several years. while he has had charge of athletics here, Mr. Emigh has worked untiringly with the fellows, training them in the ethics of good sportsmanship and developing them into winning teams for the glory of the Red and XVhite. XVinning or losing, he was heart and soul with them, sharing their joy or their sorrow. Vlhen they lacked pep, he instilled it in them, and when they were downcast and embittered by defeat, he encouraged them. To all the fellows he was "Coach." Coach Emigh has been singularly successful with his teams, winning high honors in both football and basketball. He hails from Ripon, where he won his letter and got his experience. XVe hope he will be with us next year to coach our teams to victory. IA I' FIPTX TH ill 1 . A "4i1sasG : U l926y,f8e FOOTBALL SEASON The lirst football summons brought out a crew of warriors that any school could be proud of. The prospects looked bright for a successful season with eight letter men back from last year and experienced sub-string players to Hll the vacancies. A few weeks of hard training put the team in trim for their Hrst tilt. At Merrill, September 26. on a muddy field and in a drizzling rain. our warriors started their season. In spite of the weather. both teams played real football. but run- ning and passing were necessarily difficult. and Merrill held us to a scoreless tie. On Saturday, October 3, the fast Stevens Point aggregation invaded our city for the football game. A hard light followed. but the game ended with Antigo holding the short end of a 12-0 score. The Pointers were a fast lot. playing an excellent brand of football, but the game was much closer than the score indicated. October lO found our Red and NVhite warriors and most of the school at Marshfield. Our team was falling into its stride and decisively whipped the Orange and Black, mak- ing two touchdowns and holding its opponents scoreless. Our old time rival, Rhinelander, was our next victim, Half of Rhinelander came over to see the game. but our team, playing in mid-season form, put the Green and XVhite utterly to rout, defeating them to the tune of 48-O. ix I- FHM FOIR fig "kl1aasG A I E : 1326 1 Our next tilt was with XVisconsin Rapids on their field. The game was played in slush and sand and ended in a scoreless tie. Antigo threatened the Rapids goal several times, but always lacked the Hnal punch to put the ball over. Antigo had bowed before XVausau for four years and so on October 31 our war- riors were all set for revenge when the former visited us. One of the hardest games ever played on our Held followed, but our team, playing in their best form, annihilated XVausau 7-5. East Green Bay High is a much bigger school than Antigo, but, somehow, a game was chalked up between us. Naturally, the Bay won. 34-3, but Antigo could get a great deal of consolation from the fact that they scored the only points made against the Bay all season. Our final game was with Shawano on November 14. The Shawanoites proved to be a fast bunch and gave us quite a tussle, but the game ended with the Antigonians on top, 7-6. Undoubtedly this season was one of the best Antigo has had in years. Out of a schedule of seven conference games we suffered but one defeat. Two games ended in a tie. Antigo won second place in the valley conference, being beaten only by Stevens Point. , l IAFI' PIFTX FIXF 14' if asf V GRAD ATE ,mp f FOOTBALL SQUAD BOTTUM Row 1l.t-ft to ripzlltl lloffmau, Boll, Iii:-sc, l..

That's what the All-Americans were and that's what they did-through the whole season. When it was cold and wet they gritted their teeth and made the first team light for every inch. Because of their pluck and fight Antio developed the best team they have had in years. Without the help of the second team this would not have been possible. May we always have their spirit with us. IVF- FIFIE SIX G me 'f. ALL-CONFERENCE ELEVEN The Antigo football squad selected an All-Conference Eleven from among the teams they played this season.

YA I rf5"55?, ATE JOHN XVALCH 1CaptainJ QUARTERBACK "Johnny" Walch, quarterback and cap- tain. piloted his team through one of its most successful seasons in years. Even in the heat of the game, "Johnny" kept cool. encouraging the fellows. and choosing his olays with discrimination. Much of Antigo's success was due to his ability to make the right move at the right time. He will be missed next year. FRANCIS HOFFMAN HALFBACK "Mike" Hoffman, veteran of three sea- sons, was a consistent ground gainer. When- ever he carried the ball he went for yards and yards before he was downed and then only after a fight. Left end runs were his specialty, and it took a mighty good tackle to bring him down. This was "Mike's" last year. ARLOW GIESE GUARD Arlow was one of our hardest lighting linemen. His build was ideal for a guard, and his pluck and fight made him a most dangerous player. He never failed to make a hole in his opponent's line when it was needed, and very few men ever got through him for gains. LAWRENCE ROCK HALFBACK "Larry" was a veteran of last ear's squad. This year he played half, iinuch to his opponents' dismay, who found him harder than an eel to catch. He squirmed through all kinds of lines. making gain upon gain for the Red and White. He will carry the old pigskin no more for Antigo high, ATE GLENN NOWOTNY GUARD "Pete" Nowotny donned the helmet and corks for Antigo high for the first time this year. His build was ideal for a lineman, so into the line he went, and he proved him- self to be an exceptional guard. Hilton's graduation left Antigo without a punter until "Pete" stepped into his boots, and. like his predecessor, he was one of the best punters in the conference. GEORGE TOOLEY TACKLE "Fighting" George was a new man this year. but, although new and inexperienced. he earned his name by fighting every min- ute of every game he played. Runners never found easy ground through George's territory, and they had to fight hard for every inch they gained through him. JOHN KAPKA END This year "Johnny" played end, and his build made him a good one. He had won- derful ability for catching passes and break- ing up end runs, and it took a mighty fast man to get around him. This was "Hansa's" last year. EDXVARD CONRAD TACKLE Although "Eddie" was rather light for the tackle position, his pluck and fight more than made up for his lack of weight. and he proved to be a very dependable player. Very little ground was ever gained through "Eddie's" territory, for. somehow, he was always right in the runner's way. bringing him down with a thump. He will be .1 mainstay in the line next year. ,,. 'Z' 1326 1, 9 fxshil' if l 'I 2 X N IXTY ATE FRED WILLIAMS TACKLE "Fritz" was a veteran of last year's eleven and a stone wall in the line. No ground was ever gained through him that pluck and iight could prevent and "Fritz" had plenty of both. He was a favorite with the fans and much to everybody's regret finishes high school football this year. CHESTER MILLER CENTER "Olie" Miller was one of the best centers in the conference. Whenever his opponents tried to make ground through him they found him as immovable as the Rock of Gibraltar and as strong on the offensive as he was on the defensive. Chet has one more year to go. FRANCIS CALLAHAN GUARD "Crainie" was a new man on the team this year, but his Irish and his fight more than made up for his lack of experience. He was a hard man to put out of the way, and his tackles were fast and sure, always bringing the man promptly to the ground. CLAYTON BOLL FULLBACK 'AClate" was a born fullback-big, fast, fearless. When our halves found extreme difficulty in running ends. or when there were a few yards needed, "Clate" took the ball and always netted the required ground. He will be the mainstay of next year's back- field. G ATE BENNIE BLAHA END The end position is a hard position to fill, but Bennie filled it admirably. He was an expert at hooking passes out of the air and breaking up end runs. Although he was a new man, he proved his ability as a football player, so watch for him next year. JOE MULLEN GUARD By constant hard work. Joe earned his "A" early in the fall. and luckily, for he was laid up during the rest of the season. Joe is a big man and although this was his nrst year, he proved to be an excellent guard. Next year, if luck stays with him, he will be able to show everyone what's in him. ALECK BECKER HALFBACK Aleck Becker was one of our most de- pendable halves . Whenever he carried the ball the fans were sure Antigo would gain ground. "There are more ways than one," says Aleck. If there was a man on the ground, he traveled through the air. ROLAND JONAS GUARD "Rollie" Jonas was a born fighter. and he found his stride in football this year. He played a fast game at guard and was a con- stant source of trouble for his opponents, for he was always tearing holes in their line through which our backs made huge gains. "Rollie" will be back next year. Folks. just watch him go. X fy. FY V"i'isasG A I 1926 PvASKETBAl.l- SQUAD 'l'ul' Row-W XY. YValcl1, Fri:-ill, Xuwntny. Kelihle, Strong, Hcnricks.

After a few weeks Work Coach Emigh selected his team and put them through some stiff practices in preparation for their first tilt. Minoqua Was our first victim. The game was remarkably fast for so early in the season, but Antigo's team work was far superior and We finished on top 10-6. Wabeno was another practice game but the locals had a stiff tussle to win it. On passing and shooting we showed much improvement and our team Was finding its stride. The game ended with Antigo on the heavy end of a 16-12 score. We suffered our first defeat when the Wausau basketeers invaded us the next Friday. Our basket was hoodooed, and the locals only found I l IXIXIXX ATE o it three times while Wausau's basket seemed bigger than usual: they found it for 18 points. After a week of hard practice the wearers of the old Red and White wiped Merrill off the map, defeating them by a score of 19-10. Thus encouraged, they awaited Shawano. Antigo suffered its second defeat at the hands of Shawano. Shawano came close to winning the championship last year, and with most of their letter men back they proved too much for the locals, defeating them 19-8. Antigo was all set for revenge on Wausau. The game was fast and clean, but the Wausauites proved to be the better team and again they defeated us, this time 19-8. Neenah visited us on the following Friday and sadly routed our team in a lopsided game, winning 27-8. Rhinelander was "doped" to win the next game, but when Rhinelander and Antigo play, "dope" doesn't count. In one of the fastest games ever played on our floor the locals triumphed over the Green and White by the close score of 19-18. Nekoosa would have been an easy victim if it had not been for an acci- dent to our captain "Mike" after which the team could not hit their stride and Nekoosa triumphed 17-8. Antigo hoped for a victory over Shawano when they met again on February 19. Shawano a second time proved too much for us, and we suffered a 36-10 defeat. Encouraged by our former victory over the Green and White we sent our team to Rhinelander. The loss of Hoffman was keenly felt in the game and we lost 29-14. Our final game was with Stevens Point. The champion Pointers proved too fast for the locals, running up a score of 30 points and hold- ing Antigo to 5. If we consider the number of games won and lost Antigo did not have a tremendously successful season, but we can get a great deal of consola- tion from the fact that we won from our old time rivals, Rhinelander. Hard luck seemed to pursue the team. At the beginning of the season Coach picked Rock and Hermann to fill the forward positions. Rock quit, and Hermann fell tearing a ligament in his ankle. Next Hoffman broke his finger and was out of several games. To top it off, just be- fore the tournament several of the men contracted the grippe. Considering the games we won and all of our misfortunes, we have had a fairly successful season. 5 ' Maas E Sl YTY FOUR U me Q53 FRANCIS HOFFMAN fCaptainj GUARD "Mike" was one of the hardest men to get around, and when his opponents work- ed the ball down into his territory they al- ways found him there to get them. He play- ed a fast game at guard and had a "dead" eye for the basket. Sorry, but this is his last year. CLAYTON BOLL GUARD "Clate" was a veteran of last year's quin- tette and one of our ablest guards. He played hard and fast and had a good eye for long shots. XVith two years of exper- ience, much can be expected of him next year. ' ELMER McGLONE FORWARD "Umps" was a born basketball player. His shooting and dribbling often won shouts of applause even from his opponents. He was fast on his feet and much of our suc- cess was due to his playing ability. JOHN WALCH FORWARD In basketball, as in football, "Johnny" showed his usual supply of fight. Every minute that he played he fought hard, and the score usually showed it. He was an accurate passer, and, if given half a chance, he was sure to make a basket. This is "Johnny's" last year and his loss is much to be regretted. GLENN NOWOTNY GUARD Though this was "Pete's" first year on the squad, he played like an old-timer, fill- ing the guard position, which is always a hard job. Pete has another year to go, and with this year's experience he should be an all-star guard next season. EDWARD CONRAD CENTER Eddie" was a player of unusual ability. was very fast, always making sure of He his passes and cooperating with the rest of the team. He netted many baskets during the season and his guarding on the five-man defense spoiled many a basket for his oppo- nents. LIONEL PALMER CENTER It was "Shiek's" job to lill the center position left vacant by Hilton, and he did it admirably. He was a good shot and his floor work was remarkable. "Shiek" will be back next year to make baskets for the Red and White. EUGENE HERMANN FORWARD "Nigger" was a new man on the squad this year, but his ability more than made up for his lack of experience. He played hard and fast, handled the ball like an ex- pert, and was dead on all kinds of shots, long or short. He will be back next year.

O 1 1 SECOND TEAM It's easy to practice for two hours every evening if you are on the first team where you have a chance to play and hear the crowd cheer for you, but when you're only a second string man, and, although you work as hard as a regular, there's no glory com- ing to you, it's pretty hard to go out and practice. To keep up the spirits of the second team, Asistant Coach Amundsen scheduled several games for them. They appeared for the first time in a game with the seniors as a preliminary to Antigo's first tilt on December 3. The game was fast, but it was early in the season, and both teams lacked practice. The second team, though composed mostly of under-classmen, soundly trounced the seniors 8-5, Their second game, a fast preliminary with the juniors, ended in a 4-4 tie. The second team, encouraged by one tie and a victory, traveled to Wausau for a game with the Junior high. The Wausauites proved too much for our aggregation, and they came home with the light end of a 13-9 score. While the regulars were battling the Green and White at Rhinelander, the second team again played Wausau, hopelessly outclassing them in the first half. The Wausau- ites, coming back in the second half, however, whipped us for a second time 13-9. Next year, undoubtedly, many of these men will be regulars and Mr. Amundsen de- serves much credit for developing them into a strong team. PAK E. SIXTY SIX f chili-GRADUATE DISTRICT TOURNAMENT Although we had won only a few conference games we had beaten Rhinelander once and so received an invitation to the tournament to see if they could put us to rout. When the tournament started, our team was not in the best possible physical condition, for three of our men were just recovering from sick- ness contracted at Stevens Point. Although we were determined to whip Wausau and although we gave them a stiff tussle, we came out on the short end of a 30-5 score. Tripoli appeared to be an easy mark for our passing and team work were much improved. They gave us a good tussle, but we won 10-3. The next game with Medford was a warming-up match for the finals, as we still had hopes of beating Rhinelander again and winning third place. Medford put up a good fight but lost 13-16. The iinal game was on Saturday evening with Rhinelandew The Green and White shattered all of our hopes by beating us 21-6.

Class games aroused almost as much enthusiasm as the high school games. Coach Emigh appointed members of the faculty to take charge of the various classes,-he himself acting as coach for the freshmen, Mr. Amundsen for the sophomores, Mr. Fehlandt for the jun- iors, and Mr. Roith for the seniors. Immediately after Christmas vacation practice began when teams and their coaches Worked hard, each determined to win the cup. Nothing could be judged from the outcome of the preliminaries as to who would be the winner because all of the teams showed up in line shape, and all of the games were close enough to give the fans some real thrills. After the first few games the seniors began to pull away from their op- ponents by beating their old time rivals, the juniors, in a very close game. The freshman-sophomore game attracted much attention. Both classes paraded around the gym decked out in their colors, singing their songs. The sopohomores won the hotly-contested game. Both teams were ready for revenge on the seniors and sophs, when their games came around again. The freshmen fought their hardest and whipped their rivals, the sophs, but the juniors were not quite as success- ful. The seniors were determined not to lose and stemmed the on- rush of the juniors, beating them in the overtime period. Next the Frosh surprised the whole school by beating the juniors in one of the final games. The end of the season found the seniors in the top berth. As a re- sult the Blue and White will decorate the interclass cup another year. The juniors took second place and then came the freshmen and sophomores in third and fourth places respectively. The class interest in the games this year is probably due to the fact that all the teams were evenly matched and were working hard for the championship. 2 2 UATE i7 "Ka, N- '- h f I ' 'f Miffk I".Ull1 SI XTX'-Nl N GIRLS' BASKETBALL Basketball has been one of the chief sports this year. It has proved very interesting and exciting to all those taking part. Such enthusiasm was shown, that teams were organized and chosen to represent each class. Tournament games were played.

All the teams were well-matched. No game was an easy victory. All had to work hard and well. For the high standards and good playing that were shown at the games, much credit is due to the careful coaching and supervision of Miss Phillips.

It is the Girls' Athletic Association. The purpose of this association is to promote among the girls an interest in athletics. A point system has been worked out by which girls can earn letters for their efforts in the sports. The girls chosen to represent this association and to have charge of the activities this year were: President - Wilma Heinrichs Vice-President Marjorie McKenna Secretary - - - Juanita Prehn Treasurer - - - Wilma Peterson DEPARTMENTS Outdoor Sports - - Angeline Fierst Indoor Sports - Marie Jones Hiking - Dorothy O'Donnell Track - Mildred McKenna Faculty Adviser - - - Miss Phillips This organization included not only the efforts of the students in gym class, but also promoted an unexcelled and pleasant interest in all sports. Those enjoyed were skating, coasting, skiing, hiking, and tennis. In school, basketball, baseball, volleyball, track, and distance throws furn- ished opportunities for exercise. Every participant looks back with pleasure not only upon the excel- lent exercise and training this organization has provided her but likewise upon the fine enjoyment and good times she has had for her efforts.

JUNIOR-SENIOR DEBATE Accordng to the usual custom the juniors met the seniors in debate on November 20. On this occasion, one of the most remarkable events in school life, the high school auditorium was filled beyond seating capacity. The vast crowd gathered not only to witness a debate but also to see if the hoodoo, which had favored odd numbered classes, would be broken. The junior debaters, Edward Eriedl, Erdman Bassett and Hazen Raettig were well strengthened with confidence by the loyal support of their peppy class. The junior team upheld the affirmative side of the disarmament ques- tion. Through the untiring efforts of their coach, Miss Koten, they did their share in giving stiff opposition to the mighty seniors. After many weeks of hard work under able guidance the juniors accepted defeat at the hands of the seniors. In spite of this defeat, however, they stood up against it in a true sportsmanlike manner. The class, dressed to represent the many countries of the globe, march- ed in to the tune of, "Yes, Sir, That's My Baby." After a promenade about the main room, singing, their song for victory, they discarded the swords they were carrying in keeping with their side of the debate ques- tion. The canopy under which they were seated was artistically con- structed with yellow and white, their class colors. The mascot stunt which greatly helped to stimulate the interest in the debate was very cleverly carried out. As the curtain was parted, the god of war reigned supreme on his throne of power. The god of peace, how- ever, vanquished him, thus acquiring possession of dominance. This made clear the junior's advocations. y G HADUAT E NVnans'rx-:R Ct..xRK VV:-:HKS Gnznmz J UNIOR-SENIOR DEBATE On November 20, the high school auditorium was filled with a large audience which gathered to hear the annual junior-senior debate. Both teams were determined to win. The juniors were favored by the jinx of the odd-numbered classes while the seniors kept the defeat of the year before well in mind. The question for debate was: "Resolved, that the United States should make an agreement with the nations of the world to further limit all forms of national defense." The question is a vital one to all citi- zens and attracts much attention today. The senior canopy in the class colors, blue and white, represented a beautiful hall. On the top of the canopy was the " '26." The seniors, dressed to represent the nations of the world and armed with balloons and confetti, had a typical Mardi Gras. The senior stunt was also of different character. It was put on by members of the senior and sophomore classes. The playlet was an interpretation of the nega- tive side of the question. The senior team was composed of Lu Verne Webster, Donald Clark, and James Weeks, who ably upheld their side of the question. The decision of the judges was unanimous in favor of the negative. The judges were Mayor T. J. Reinert and Mrs. R. B. Johns. Much credit for the senior work must go to their coach, Miss Greene, whose constant and unsurpassable work led them to victory. MR. TIPLER TRIANGULAR DEBATE On February 20, the triangular debate season opened with a dual debate when Antigo's affirmative team composed of Emmett Below, Jean Can- non and Donald Clark met Shawano's negative and came out with a 2-1 decision in their favor. The negative team traveled to Shawano and put up a good fight with Shawano's affirmative, but the decision was unanimous in favor of Shaw- ano's affirmative. The question for debate this year was: "Resolved, that Congress be granted power by federal amendment to the Constitution to regulate all forms of child employment." The subject is an extremely interesting one for the late twentieth amendment is a duplicate of this question. The high school auditorium was well filled at the debates. The second debate was held with Wausau on March 4. Antigo's negative composed of Stewart Johnston, Hazen Raettig, and James Weeks debated Wausau's aflirmative here. Debating ability and team co-opera- tion enabled the Antigo negative to gain a decision unanimously in their favor. With a 2-l victory to their credit, Antigo's affirmative journeyed to Wausau and met Wausau's negative. They were unable to withstand F. 3 F15 1 ,J H926 G 1926 Q,-' 3 CLARK jon xsrorr Fluent. YVEEKS lismw Bassmrr VAN xox RAETTIG the attack made by their opponents and received the short end of a 3-O decision. Triangular debate was operated somewhat differently this year. Early in the year Mr. Tipler, debate coach, divided his squad into the freshman and senior squads, each having separate meetings. This made possible more individual work which is essential in debating. After try-outs were held and teams picked, the senior debate teams were composed of Emmett Below, Jean Cannon, and Donald Clark, with Erdman Bassett as alter- nate, affirmative, Stewart Johnston, Hazen Raettig, and James Weeks, with Edward Friedl as alternate, negative. Another added feature to the debate work was the use of extemporan- eous speaking. No learned speeches were used. As usual, much credit is due to the patient work of Mr. Tipler, the tri- angular debate coach. His untiring devotion in making Antigo stand out in the debating field was not alone his purpose but to develop better debaters and debating in the high school as well. Debate next year will be well backed by Emmett Below, Jean Cannon, Hazen Raettig, Edward Friedl, and Erdman Bassett, who will be back to help make debating an important feature in high school activities. PS I TX XIX .7 ' ui I ,fp ,AL , V4 3 ' -:sas G A I E may - , EXTEMPORANEOUS SPEAKING The Extemporaneous club, whose activities have been substituted for oratory, began its functions early in the year. The regular meetings were not held until after the be- ginning of the second semester. One of the projects the club conducted this year was the Junior-Senior debate, which was capably handled by members of the organization. Officers were elected as follows: Donald Clark. president: William Fisher, vice- president: Blanche Wolpert, secretary: and Irvin Dreher, librarian. Meetings were held each week when topics which were to be used in the contest were discussed. On Wednesday, March l9, tryouts for the annual contest were held. and two mem- bers from each class picked to speak in the public contest. Stewart Johnston and Donald Clark represented the seniors. Emmett Below and Erd- man Bassett the juniors, Maybelle Stevenson the sophomores. and Clarence Marmes and Harold Klessig the freshmen. Those who won places on Vfednesday, March 24. were: Donald Clark, first: Stewart Johnston. second: and Emmett Below, third. Much credit for the progress of the extemporaneous speaking club is due Miss Mary Keating, who acted as critic, Her earnest endeavor in this type of speaking has made it possible for extemporaneous speaking to be substituted for oratory, in debate, and other spee:h work, Extemporaneous speaking is much more effective and is much better training. INTERPRETIVE READING Interpretive reading, new to our high school, was introduced this year. This type of work is open to both boys and girls. It is similar to oratory and declamatory. yet those who take part are given but an hour to prepare a selection given them. which is read lO the audience. Those of the girls who were selected for the contest were: Marie Jones. Marjory Canfield. and Blanche XVolpert: of the boys: Donald Clark, James Weeks, and Kenneth Popkey. At the finals. which were held on the twenty-fourth of March, Blanche Wolpert re- ceived first for the girls and Kenneth Popkey first for the boys. At the girls' contest in New London, Blanche Wolpert won Hrst place. The school wishes her the same success in the coming contests. YAIZE SEVHNTY-lilti HT A A l E BLANCI-IE WOLPERT DECLAMATORY After winning the league and district contests last spring. Blanche XVolpert took first place in the final declamatory contest held at Madison on May 30. 1925. with the declamation "Mon Pierre." The Antigo high school is extremely proud of Blanche's success. and we take this opportunity to express our congratulations to her. On Monday. March 2, the declamatory finals were held in the high school auditor- ium. Those who took part had taken places in their respective classes at the prelim- inary contests. The freshman declamatory tryouts were held on Friday. March 19. From several contestants. Janet McCarthy and Mary Ellen Janes were chosen to represent their class in the final contest. The sophomore tryout was held Tuesday. March 16. Seven sophomore girls par- ticipated in the contest. Only two were chosen. however. for the nnal contest, these being Alice Sleeter and Catherine Morse. Owing to illness, Catherine Morse was unable to be present in the finals, and Mary Kelly, being next highest. took her place. Neither the juniors nor seniors had preliminary contests. as only two members from each class entered the contest. The juniors were Arleen Van Doren and Fern XX'in- centsen. The seniors were represented by Dorothy O'Donnell and Carol Bishop. The nnal contest attracted unusual attention, and the auditorium was filled. A banner was presented to the class of which the winner was a member. Alice Sleeter was given first place in the hnals with the selection. "Yellow Butterflies." Carol Bishop received second honors with the declamation. "The Flower Shop." Third place was given to Mary Ellen Janes. speaking "The Bear Story." The winners of first and second places were present at the league contest held at Clin- tonville. Friday. April 9. Carol Bishop took first place. which entitles her to represent us at the sub-district contest to be held April 23. XXINIX XIXI GHADUATE 56 5 KXISIGG A I 1826 S' SCPHOMORE DRAMA CLUBS The senior class is not the only class to boast of a dramatic club .for, in the fall, the sophomores also organized their drama clubs which have proved to be a great suc- cess. All sophomores who were interested in this type of work tried out. and those chosen were divided into two groups. Miss Adams had charge of the Powder and Paint Club which elected officers as follows: President - - - John Collins Secretary - - Harold Bessey Business Manager William Flatley Librarian - Marquette Healy Stage Manager - - - Dick McMullen Mr. Moran had charge of the Silver Wig section of the drama club whose officers were as follows: President Forrest Wanninger Secretary - Bob Yaeger Librarian - Lorraine Matthias Stage Manager - - - William Merrill On the same evening that the Masque and Wig Club gave their four one-act plays. the Powder and Paint Club verv successfully presented "The Ghost Story" by Booth Tarkington. Both groups held regular meetings every Monday night. The club has been very successful and doubtless will be continued in the future. Pkfl' lflfll X IXO 3 ,Tri Tuff ." 2 'I E MASQUE AND WIG One of the most successful clubs and. judging from the large membership, the most popular is the Masque and XVig drama club which was organized early last fall. At the first meeting, the club elected officers as follows: President - - - Lucille McKinnon Vice-President - Marie Flatley Secretary-Treasurer - - - Carol Bishop During the course of the year, the Masque and Wig have been very successful in pre- senting their plays. On March 12, the Alpha group of the club entertained the D. A. R. with the play. "Suppressed Desires," and on the last Friday before Christmas vacation the Beta group entertained the high school with the Christmas play entitled "The Toy Shop." The plays. "Mechanical Jane" and "Two Slatterns and a King," were given in a program for the mothers of the girls in Miss Keating's advisory group. On March 5, the Masque and XVig also presented the following one-act plays: "My Dear," "Difference In Clocks," "At the Movies," and "Two Crooks and a Lady." The plays were very interesting. and the players did exceptionally well in their interpretation of the parts. Much of the credit for the successful work done by the club must go to Miss Keating and Miss Harrison. under whose supervision the club worked. IA I' LI!

This organization goes on from year to year with a steady improve- ment. The club has favored us several times in the main assembly with very good selections. Everyone wishes they would sing oftener. Think of the enthusiasm there must be back of this club to prompt them once each week to leave their downy beds and speed to the school for seven-thirty o'clock practice. lt is no wonder that their singing wins the approval of all when so much spirit is put into it.

We all know how many good voices there are in the boys' glee club. We only Wish that the occasions on which We heard them Weren't so rare. But all in all we are very satisfied with the showing they make. This club helped a great deal in making "Once In A Blue Moon" a suc- CCSS. lt is certain that work in this division of the music department has been of benefit to the members. Unlimited talent is shown in everything in which they participate. Miss Mabel Verhulst is the director. i ATE f Probably the most prominent organization in school is the band. There is something particularly novel about having a band in Antigo. This is perhaps because we never dreamed of having one before this year. XVe can feel that the formation of this organ- ization is one of the main achievements of the year. It will undoubtedly become better with leaps and bounds in the future. judging from the present enthusiasm. Our band will very soon prove to be a great asset to our school because it will inspire us with pep for all our activities. Many of us have stayed in the main room on Thursday and Friday nights and heard the band practice under the direction of Mr. Phillips. They play very well. and we are all anxiously awaiting the time when they will give their first public performance. LE FLEUR DE LIS President - - Marie Flatley Secretary-Treasurer - John Walch Program Chairman Lucille McKinnon This year there has come into our school a new club. It is the club formed by the senior French class. The meetings haven't been restricted to the discussion of French architecture, art, literature, and customs, although these things were given some study. Programs consisting of French musical numbers and plays have been enjoyed. The French dinner given in April, which was a very sumptuous affair. was the climax of their many parties. Of course, at all these meetings and events. everyone had to parle. parle. and parle in the beautiful tongue of France. ALPHA GAMMA President George Tooley Vice-President - Mabel Utnehmer Secretary-Treasurer Loraine Friedl An interesting light is being thrown on mathematics through this new math club. According to all reports. quite lively times are had at the weekly meetings. Everyone interested should join a club of this sort because a broader understanding of mathematics is derived therefrom. Seventy-five students responded to the call of the Hrst meeting. This is a very large number for a club so new. With this successful beginning, Alpha Gamma ought soon to win an important place in the list of high school organizations. PAGF FICIITX l'll H1 F?

What would we do without the orchestra which is ever willing to lend its services on every occasion? And proud we can be of its ability, as there is much talent dis- played therein. The orchestra has played for our main room assembly. our contests of all sorts, our dances, our operetta, and even for our movies. ' Too many of us do not realize the work put into the making of an orchestra. There must be faithful and steady practice the year through. The members of our club have done their job well. They have kept up the long-standing reputation of musical ability displayed by our high school orchestras.

Cl'm glad my English teacher can't read my diary.3 It was the last one we'll ever have a chance to remember, and there's so much to remember, too! First, we all came in costumes of different kinds. You could see cowboys, little girls, Chinamen, sailors, and almost every conceivable nation- ality. Even an Egyptian visited the scene. In the beginning, games were played, and a pie-eating contest was partaken of by some of the men teachers and senior boys. We wondered why our principal had such an aversion to blueberry pie. We danced to most heavenly music before we ate, and then did we eat! Mrs. Fehlandt surely knows how to make good sandwiches and such oodles of them. We all went home happy, but. oh! with such a lost feeling in our hearts to think we never could have such a time like that again: but then, it's always fun to remember. January 16, 1926 The juniors all came to the gym last night, costumed and masked. The faculty far surpassed the juniors in originality of costumes. Miss English as a Christmas tree. Miss Daskam as Amelia from the pickle factory, and Mr. Moran as an Indian were the life of the party. After dancing for several hours, during which confetti, horns, and rattles were dis- tributed. lunch consisting of sandwiches, salad, pickles, ice cream, cake, and cocoa was served. About eleven-thirty everybody went home claiming that it was the best party ever. January 30, 1926 Dearest Diary: The sophomores had their party last night, and from the sounds I think they had a really spiffy time. Here it is the middle of winter, but they had a summer party. Every- body came all dressed up-the fellows in flannels and the girls in fluffy summer dresses. lt was lucky they could make believe it was warm, 'cause I bet some of them almost froze getting there. But after they got there it was all right, because they fit right into the scenery, which was a lovely veranda on a summer evening. They had a clever stunt-the sophomores always were a peppy bunch anyway-it was a take-off on the famous Murton boarding house. A good many of the teachers saw themselves as others see them. After the stunt, they danced, and, just think, they didn't stop dancing until eleven- thirty! Isn't that dreadful! What is the younger generation coming to? lXl XIX!-l! SIX ATE 2 . Then they ate. I guess it was awfully good, to hear them tell about it. There were sandwiches and lemonade first, then ice cream and little green and white cakes with a '28 on each one. Here's hoping the '28 is as lucky as its sister, '26. Everyone went home saying he had had the time of his life. February 13, 1925 Dearest Diary: Oh! They let me peek in at the Frosh with all their pep last night, and they were having such a good time playing three deep. Then they had some races. You see, diary of mine, it was a county fair, so races came in the natural course of events. One was an obstacle race. There were four couples, each one had to put on certain clothes from a suitcase, then carry an umbrella, chair, suitcase. and a few more things down to the opposite end of the gym, take them all off. put them back into the suitcase and come back to the start. It certainly was a treat to see "Micky" McCormick put on his overalls. The kiddy-car race by the tallest boys and girls in the class also furnished the freshies with much fun. But I really was surprised at the talent displayed by the Frosh boys in putting on their musical comedy. I never saw such realistic chorus girls. Later they danced. and then the "eats" were served in paper bags, with bottles of ice-cold pop. All the freshies went home happy after a night's revelry. That's all I have for this time, diary, but I had such a good time out of it. April 9, 1926 My Dear Diary: I feel so old today because I'm almost an alumna-almost out of high school! I can hardly make myself believe it. I went to my Hrst alumni reception tonight and certainly enjoyed it. The programme came first. and it consisted of an address of welcome by President Horace Kellogg, the senior response by our worthy president, Edwin Williams, readings by Mrs. Engle which were so greatly enjoyed that she was forced to give four encoresg and Mr. Fred Berner gave some reminiscences which were especially interesting. After the secretary, Mr. M. Olk, gave his report, there was the election of officers. Mrs. James Collins was elected president and Mr. Ted Dvorak, secretary. Soon the gathering adjourned to the gym where Tobey's orchestra played for danc- ing the rest of the evening. Oh, I almost forgot! Punch was served to keep everybody cool all evening. PAGE NIWETX SENEN :A A i dmc: me April 17. 1926 Oh, Diary: My last prom in high school is a thing of the ages now. but it was heavenly enough to supply material for day-dreams for at least fifty years. We all went to Venice in a great big gondola to enjoy the most delightful evening of the year. It's loads of fun when you can be whisked to as romantic a place as that for a whole evening. Many helped to make this lovely Venice for us. Marjorie Canfield planned the gondola. Joe Mullen had charge of the ceiling that had the light for us to see by, and planned the little balconies with window boxes all around the second story, too. The lighting effect was so clever--there were small lanterns, the kind one always sees in Venice, placed in the arches. This was done by John Dolsen. Even when one is in a romantic place like that, one gets thirsty, so there was a regular fairy something to drink that was called punch. Wilma Peterson was in charge of that. Tommy Durfee planned the booths from which they served the punch. Folks say he's awfully witty. but he must be artistic, too, because the booths were most attractive. Of course, when we got tired dancing, there was a place for us to sit down. Under the balconies were big easy chairs for the fair ladies and footstools for their escorts. This plan was all worked out by Arleen Van Doren. The music was superb! I'm sure I should love to go to Venice every night if I could hear music like that. Thelma Berner and Dan Driscoll arranged for that and also the little programmes they gave us to keep our dances straight. Around the edge of the room. covered with wisteria, were lattice work arches supported by pillars. All this building was supervised by Harold McGinnis. "Punk" Marx had charge of the walls which resembled those of a portico with colonnades and windows quite different from those we are used to seeing. Of course, the lords and ladies wanted to show off their fine laces and brocaded satins. so we had a grand march. The queen of this ball was Marion Below. She and the prom chairman, Lester Maxson, led the march. It was most solemn and dignified. but I enjoyed it immensely. The patrons and patronesses of the evening were: Mr. and Mrs. Waddell. Mr. and Mrs. Maxson, Mr. and Mrs. Miller. Mr. and Mrs. Roehm, Mr. and Mrs. Peterson, Mr. and Mrs. Below, Mr. and Mrs. Canfield, Mr. and Mrs. Van Doren. and Mr. and Mrs. Daskam. After it was all over, we left Venice and went to eat merry mixups to our heart's content. It's all over in reality, but I'll never forget it. no matter how white my hair gets. Goodnight, diary. PACF NINETY EIGHT LI TERAR I J I 1 i tim G U E nu POETRY CONTEST i A poetry contest was conducted in our high school this year by the Antigonian staff. Each edition carried some of the poems entered. The contest was open to all students of the high school, and there was no restriction as to the number contributed by each contestant. About forty poems were entered and ten of these were exceptionally well done. The contest was judged by Miss Adams, Miss Marston, and Miss Bryan. Bertha Reeves, a senior, was awarded first and also third place, and Margaret Brenner, a sophomore, received second place. Mable Anderson received honorable mention. Collections of poems were given as awards. Bertha Reeves received Untermeyer's "The Singing World," and Margaret Brenner received "Dawn," an anthology of student verse. The winning poetry follows: DISTANCE There is promise in the distance. Far and faint but sweet it calls. Telling of an endless freedom Not enclosed by narrow walls: Telling of a world of living All untouched by petty strife, With its bright, enchanting promise Of a better, freer life. There's a charm that comes from distance. From beyond the meadows far: There's a lure beyond the sunset And where shadowy forests are. Oh, it beckons me to follow, Where I know not, but it seems That beyond this boundless distance Lies the land of all my dreams. -BERTHA REEVES. THE WORLD'S CLOAK The winter set in cold and hard, And snow fell from the sky. While Mr. World put on his cloak To keep him warm and dry. The cold wind howled among the trees And drifted snow banks high, While Jack Frost with his painting brush Drew pictures on the sly. PAGE ONE HUNDRED 5 f J 4' -uc: ATE Not long could winter reign supreme. For soon the World awoke, And, looking at the calendar. He quickly changed his cloak. A lovely, light. pink suit he wore, And called the southern breeze: Then drove away the North XVind Some other land to freeze, -MARGARET BRENNER. COLD TODAY! Cold today. and the crisp. clear air Makes fleecy columns everywhere: Sparkling with glistening gem. the snow Reflects the glitter of the sun's bright glow. As a summer's sky is the sky's clear hue. But the warmth is gone. it's a hard, cold blue. Like pale blue marble the frozen lake lies Hard and immue from the blue of the skies: While the bare. gaunt trees stand still' and still. Silent and frozen as the snow-clad hill. Now the sparkling stream is a silver thread. And its banks of green are white instead. Across the meadows of snow-drift dunes The hazy purple of the mountain looms With the only color to be seen- The rich. deep splash of the evergreen. Yet beneath the frozen cloak of all winter's array There's a vivid life lurking. though it's cold today. -BERTHA REEVES. SPRING From the snowy depths of winter Came a warm. enchanting spring. Rousing. with her birds and flowers, A new hope in everything. Chased away our petty sorrows, Showed us how to live anew, Bathed us in her wondrous beauty. Made us young and happy too. Taught us it was worth while living. . For to all our troubles here There will sometime be an ending. Just as spring comes every year. -MABEL ANDERSON. PKG? on HLNIRH ox: f +i1azsG 'I me ,, ig A RACE FOR LIFE "There stands my murderer!" With these words on his lips, Judge Pemberton passed away. The accused was the judge's nephew, a young man of twenty-one years of age. His sister, Jean, stood beside him in the wildest amazement, only conscious of the words of the dying man and of his pointing to Derry. Stunned for the moment, Derry stood motionless: then realizing what it all meant, he cried, "How can he die with those lying words on his lips! Oh, Jean, you do not believe him? Tell me, tell me, Jean, that you believe me innocent!" Derry and Jean were orphans and had been living with their uncle. Judge Pemberton. The judge and Derry had had a misunderstanding that day and both had spoken many Hery words. As a result. Derry had resolved to leave his uncle's house. Late that night, when he was packing, he heard his uncle scream, and, rushing into his room, he found him lying upon the floor, a dagger beside him. He stooped to pick up the dagger just as Jean entered the room. It was then that the judge opened his eyes and, seeing Derry with the knife behind him, believed him to be his murdered. As a natural result, Derry was imprisoned. Days passed and finally the trial started. These were days of great fear and fore- boding for Derry and Jean. The circumstances were against Derry and they both real- ized this, but they did not give up hope. Jean spent all her time at the jail trying to cheer and comfort Derry. She was brave so she kept his spirits up. As the trial wore on, hope began to ebb for the brother and sister-the judge's dying words seemed all that was necessary to condemn Derry. In his weakest moments Derry would say, "Oh, Jean, what can I do? I am innocent. you know I am innocent. but how can I prove it? I can see no way out of it, but, oh. to die as a murderer!" These were the moments when Jean needed all the courage she could grasp. She would answer lovingly, "Derry, dear, all we can do is to hope and pray for the best. God will help us somehow. He knows you are innocent, and He is too good and too just to let you die as a murderer." Thus she spoke, though her heart was breaking. for she began to realize the fruitlessness of trying to prove Derry's innocence. Finally the last day came, and it was a pitiful sight to see the brother and sister, so dear to one another, pale and haggard and almost hopeless. The verdict came. The judge read, "Guilty! The criminal is sentenced to be hanged." There seemed to be a slight murmur of discontent among the crowd, for everyone pitied these two-so young and fair. From that time the days passed quickly, and the time drew nearer for the execution. Derry had given up all hope, but Jean was resolved not to give up. She wrote to the AGF GNP HK NDRED 'DVIO A ' 'K1aacG me Q governor, "Can't you please spare my brother's life? He is all I have, and I know he is innocent. Pardon him and some day we will prove his innocence. But if you take his life-remember-you are taking the life of an innocent man!" All her efforts seemed to be in vain and Derry would try to make her realize this, but she was resolved to save him at any cost. The day before the execution arrived. The governor's sister was to be buried in a small village thirty miles from the county jail on the day of the execution. This news reached Jean and she resolved. as a final attempt. to go there and make one last plea to the governor. The hour of the execution was set for three o'clock on Friday. Early in the morning of that day she set out for the village-it was the village where her uncle had lived. When she got there she ordered one of the servants to have Rocket harnessed and ready for her at any minute. Rocket was a thoroughbred, well-known throughout the coun- try for his fleetness and endurance. He was the fastest runner that ever set foot upon the turf. Then she went to the house of mourners to await the arrival of the governor. It was about a quarter of two when the governor's carriage was seen in the distance. As Jean stood on the step, waiting breathlessly, a man made his way through the crowds and. stumbling up to Jean, cried, "Are you Judge Pemberton's niece?" "Yes," she said. Then the man, almost distracted, cried, "For God's sake, save your brother's life! He is innocent-I killed Judge Pemberton! Here are the proofs," and he handed her a bundle of papers. Just then he breathed his last and fell upon the ground. When the governor's carriage drew up. Jean frantically ran to meet him and, giving him the paper, cried. "Give me a pardon for my brother! There lies the murderer!" The governor hastily glanced over the papers and said, "Alas, I'm afraid it is too late!" Then, in a louder tone, "I will give a reward of live hundred dollars to the man who will save this young boy's life." XVhereupon three young men mounted three of the fastest horses and started for the place of execution-a chestnut. a black, and a bay. Then Jean. falling on her knees before the governor, pleaded, "Please give me a pardon, that I may reach the place on time." The governor looked at her in surprise. "XVhat could you do. my dear?" And, looking toward the road, he saw the three horses quickly disappearing. "I fear even they will be too late. May God speed them on their way." PAGE ONE HUNDIFD THIEE f UATE But Jean was not satisfied, "Please, I cannot leave my brother's life to strangers." The governor smiled, but he gave her a pardon to satisfy her. Then quickly she ran to the stables and in a flash she and Rocket were off. It was now two o'clock, and Rocket seemed to realize all that depended on him as he started off, putting forth his best efforts. His long strides made every step faster than the last. Jean leaned down in her saddle and patted Rocket's neck, saying. "Rocket, we must make it! Derry must be saved! On! On!" Soon they were over the hill, leaving the village behind, and as they sped along they discerned the bay far ahead. On, on they went, faster and faster, until finally they passed the bay and left it far behind. "On, on, Rocket, every minute means life or death to Derry." and again the iron-grey sped on. It was now two-thirty, when suddenly they saw the black ahead, traveling at great speed. At last the iron-gray came abreast the black, and as though this was a chal- lenge, he gave a spurt and they were off. On they went and still the jail was not in sight. A quarter of three, and far ahead they saw the chestnut and its bold rider. As Rocket overtook the chestnut, Jean noticed that horse almost fatigued-foaming at the mouth and all but sweating blood. Just as the iron-gray came abreast the chestnut, that horse stumbled, fell, and hurled its rider from its back. Now everything depended on Rocket. So on and on they went. In the meantime a great crowd had gathered around the place of execution. At ten minutes of three Derry was led to the platform and his last words were with the chaplain. The sheriff stood beside him, looking toward the distant hill-he had promised the last minute to Jean. The time slipped on, minute by minute. The tower clock showed five minutes of three and the hands moved on. The black cap was drawn over Derry's face, the noose was ready, when suddenly, like a ship on the horizon, a horse and rider appeared on the top of the hill. The sheriff was almost exultant-he knew it must be Jean. On and on came this fleet horse and his noble rider. As they drew near they noticed her waving something in the air. Just as the clock in the tower began to strike, Jean jumped from her horse and made her way through the crowd. The noble iron'gray could not rejoice with the crowd. for his great task was finished and, bereft of his rider. he fell. The sheriff read the pardon aloud and as the clock finished striking the black cap was withdrawn. Amid shouts and cheers, Derry was restored to Jean. -DOROTHY O'DONNELL. PHP ONE HLNIRPI l-Oll t UATE 2 GRUMBLE DAY Mrs. Carnes was a woman of resources. That she was helping live sons through high school and college, with only their father's slender salary as a bookkeeper to help their own earnings, showed this. But the way she disciplined these tive sons was an even more vivid illustration. She seemed never to resort to harshness and yet her control amazed the neighborhood. For two weeks of this vacation the sons had been home, earning money for the coming year, and their mother was not exactly pleased with them. It seemed to her that they had grown much too fond of complaining at real or fanciful ills and that they were abusing even a college student's privilege of slang. This particular Sunday had aroused her exasperation. 'iMother, why on earth did you roast us out so early-no Sunday school for mine." said Dan. "Bacon and eggs every day, six months on a stretch, twice a year, makes me weary." said Frank. "What the cleuce did you fellows do with my pipe?" "By Jove, you can't put a thing down in this place without employing a detective to trace it," grumbled Carl. "Mother, I wish you'd tell these sons of yours to leave a clean towel in the bathroom occasionally," said father, just entering the room. Mother's eyes began to flash. "Boys," she said, 'Tm not a complaint bureau and I can't handle so many complaints in one day. I'm going to appoint a grumble day for each of you. On that day I shall expect you to present all your troubles to the assembled family, who will keep silent. For the remainder of the week that person will keep quiet and listen to someone else. Father, as the head of the family, will begin on Monday." Father looked decidedly surprised and embarrassed. "I did not suppose I was includ- ed in this," said he. ' The boys laughed. "Come on, Daddy, play the game," Dan said. "We'll let Dan have Tuesday, since he's the oldest son," Mother continued "and the others follow also according to their age--the twins, Paul and Carl can draw 'straws for Friday and Saturday." The boys were smiling. but they looked uneasy, as they used to when Mother was devising some new punishment for rifling her cake box. "There is one day left, Mother," said Paul. "Who is to have Sunday or is to escape the general desecration?" Mother smiled. "Well, Sunday is the Sabbath, you,,know, whereon we rest, even from grumbling. Besides, you usually have guests on that day and I don't think they'd quite relish your complaints." "Ten thousand thanks for one gloomless day," said Paul, bowing elaborately. With accurate aim. John sent a balled-up napkin in his direction. "But," continued Mother, "on Monday I shall take your father's place and grumble in my behalf." A groan arose from all. "That's the day I have an engagement away from home," asserted Dan. "Just think of Mother's grumbling!" A chorus of assent followed. "No," said Mother firmly, "after l am compelled to listen to you all week. surely you will play the game squarely and hear my complaints!" Then a queer week began. "XVhat did you mean by swiping my tie-pins last night, IK l UNI' ULN-IRl'l FINI- , 1 1-1-G TE Carl?" John grumbled in surly greeting to his brother as he came late to the breakfast table Monday morning. "Close up!" came a chorus. "This is Dad's day." The odd look on Dad's face brought an uproar of laughter. to which Daddy himself finally yielded. It seemed to do him good, too, for he brought home some jolly stories and told them at dinner and supper, and appeared in better spirits than in years. Queerly, Dan didn't seem to find anything to grumble over Tuesday morning, and during the rest of the day, when a complaint did rise to his lips. he found himself oddly embarrassed to make it plain before the expectant audience. And so it was through the week: every man of them was afraid to grumble on his own day, because of his family's ridicule, and could not on other days because of its forbiddance. Day in and day out it was continuous fun for the boys-this humorous situation. They soon began to find a new zest in living-liking their home and its company. So Sunday came, and not one of rest for Mother either. The sons had brought guests, so Mother's time was filled with tasks to be done. The sons did not grumble after the week of discipline, but their belongings were everywhere but in their own place, and mother sighed as she thought of their still being there on Monday, but still she smiled. Following a custom they had fallen into since coming home this vacation. the boys slept a bit late on Monday morning and straggled tardily down into the dining room one by one. But there was no mother to be found downstairs and no sign of activity in the kitchen. The boys stared at one another blankly. Presently father entered. "Why, boys, where is your mother? Is she sick?" Instantly they all rushed upstairs, with such a roar as only masculine feet can make, to Mothers room. Mother was dressed and sitting calmly, reading. "What the deuce do you mean rushing in like this?" she asked. Frank and Carl nudged one another. That wasn't a nice expression and Mother so often asked the boys to refrain from using it. They all looked embarrassed. "Why, Mother, we thought you were sick." Mother looked at them. "By clove." she said, fDan and Paul blushed. After all. that was a silly expression.j 'gif one of you wouldn't be a girl, I don't see why all of you can't get something together and cook it. Rising early every day for six months. twice a year, just to cook breakfast for a bunch of men makes me weary." It shocked them to hear Mother talk so. They had always taken their breakfast as a matter of course. They started at their task and soon made a good mess of things. Soon she was down with them--to their intense joy-making order and getting some- thing to eat. When they were all seated at the breakfast table she started talking again, but in such a sad voice it brought tears to her sons' eyes. "When I think of the nights I have sat long hours sewing that my boys might have as good clothing as other children: when I think of extra bookkeeping your father has strained his eyes over-" She stopped. The boys had had enough. But mother was crying softly. Amidst the confusion, Dan's voice rang out, "I move we abolish Grumble Day." "Until we need it again," added Mother. "We won't need it again," they promised. On Tuesday morning the Carnes home wore a different air. lt was tidy in early morning for possibly the first time in years. The boys had all done their share. -MARION BELow. I I HKNIRI-l SIX 'i1va0G me . Calendar SEPTEMBER -One and all trudge back to the institution. -First senior class meeting.

PAG ONE HUNDRFD ELEYFN' AUTOGRAPHS xl PSV if 7, r 11---GRADUATE 1 The Antigo High School alumni association was organized in 1886. This was just one year after the establishment of the high school. The first member of this association was Miss Agnes Donohue. who graduated in 1885. During the past forty years the membership of the association has increased steadily until at the present time there are nearly lifteen hun- dred members enrolled under its banner. The Antigo High School has become well known throughout the state by the great achievements of its alumni. Many of the members of A. H. S. have met with great success, and others are making their way rapid- ly toward that goal. It would take too long to trace back and tell what has become of all of our loyal alumni, so in these few pages we shall speak of the success that has come to many and of that coming to others. First of all we will think about our faculty in Antigo. Theresa Dris- coll, supervisor of city schools, graduated with the class of '97, Margaret Daskam, '15 and Esther English, '11, are both teaching mathematics in the high school, while Lorraine Hopkins, '22, is teaching in the voca- tional school. Elizabeth Healy, '08, is supervisor of the county schools. Others teaching in the grades throughout the city are Patricia Garrity, '19, Margaret Kavanaugh, '89, Roxia Baxter, '00, Goldie Madsen, '19, Lynda Klessig, '20, Julia Wade, '13, Margaret Manthey, '14, and Georgia Latta. '05 Many of the business and professional men of Antigo are alumni of the high school, namely: Lawyer White, '09, Dr. M. J. Donohue, '91, Dr. E. J. Donohue, '98, Dr. Steffen, '05, Doctor Healy, '14, Dr. Boll, '15, and Dr. Gillis, '13, Merrit Olk, '21, and Fred L. Berner, '98. Many of the recent graduates are working in Antigo at the present time-making their start with some of the above business and professional men, or with oth- ers. In time they will be leading citizens of Antigo and will be pointed out as successful alumni. Others of the recent graduating classes are attending colleges or other higher places of learning throughout the country, and we wish them the best of luck in all they undertake. We have many good examples of what some of these people are doing. For instance, the two McKinnon IUW UK ' eil!-GRADUATE 1 boys, Arlo from the class of '22 and Cyril from '21, are well known for their debating and oratorical ability displayed at Marquette. They have both traveled with the Marquette Glee Club. At present Cyril is making an extensive trip through the British Isles and Europe. Interesting ar- ticles written by him describing his trip have appeared in the Milwaukee Journal. Thinking of these boys and Marquette immediately brings reminiscences of the achievements of some of our alumni in basketball and football. There are "Bill" Curran, '22, "Dick" Craine, '22, "Micky" McCormick, '22, who have all distinguished themselves in these lines. They were always outstanding in athletics. Last fall Margaret Stewart, '23, who is attending La Crosse Normal School, was chosen to be one of the representatives to the World Court of Colleges at Prnceton, New Jersey. We have often come across accounts noting the fine work of Neal Thay- er and Gustav Winter at the University of Wisconsin. Both of these fellows graduated in '23. Asher Treat, who graduated in '25, and who is attending the University is a member of the University Band. Just recently we heard that a member of the class of '20, Blanche Reising, is assistant chemistry teacher at the University. These are just a few of the many. Some of the alumni have taken to travel. Agnes Norem of the class of '23, who is attending Lawrence College, made a trip to Europe last sum- mer and can relate many pleasing and delightful accounts of her tour. Mary Wright, '19, Kathleen Wright, and Margaret Collins, both of '21 have been spending the winter in Florida. They made the trip by auto- mobile. Mary Edith McKinnon of the class of '25 is spending some time at present in the East. Besides these there are many who have already met their fate by taking the last and final step-matrimony. We cannot begin to enumerate in this list-not even the recent ones-because the number is exceedingly large. We will only say that we hope they are happy and that they may have all the joys life can give them. Before leaving we will just cast one thought backward to our beloved alumni who have already left us and have crossed the Great Divide. Though they will never return, their memory will live on forever with those who knew them.

Why the juniors opposed a senior girl leading the prom? Why John Walch comes to school so early? Viona Hoffman giggling? Alfred Spengler speaking a declama- tion? Clarence Anderson with a girl? Lewis Wesley without a joke? A year-book without a slam? Forrest Wanninger playing football? Julia Talarczyk wasting time? Walter Keohane or Marie Jones on time? Alfred Lauby as a minister? Another class as bright and intelligent as the class of '26? Polite Waiter: And how did you find the beef. sir? Harry Csarcasticallyi: Oh, I just mov- ed the potato to one side and there it was. "Something is rotten in the State of Denmark," mused Hamlet. "Don't fool yourself," returned faith- ful Horatio, "the whole trouble is with your receiving set." A little girl at school learned a hymn beginning with "A consecrated cross I'd bear." but not knowing the meaning of it, sang it, "A consecrated cross-eyed bear." I A youth. a look. A lass, a look. Books neglected, Flunks expected. Best tonic for those who are back in their work is "Ketchup." Soph. Cscornfullyl: XVas that all you had. a sleighride? Marie Jones: Well, there's a good deal compressed in a sleighride. A English Teacher: The class will read "The Cotter's Saturday Night." Bright Junior: May I read it Friday: I have an engagement for Saturday. Those of us who are grieving over low marks may seek consolation in the fact that everything is marked down aft- er the holidays. "For the Lord's sake," murmured the surprised usher, as he saw a dollar drop- ped into the collection box. He: Isn't this a dumb party? She: Yes. He: May I escort you home? She: I live here.

And a hind leg wandered idly, Scratching me all. by degrees. I thought they were subjugated- Things seemed to be going well: Then came at once, behind my neck. A bite, and it hurt like--everything! I did a sitting high jump, With a jack-knife dive to the rear: I howled like a hound of the Baskervilles. And pounded the porch with an ear. I never have felt him since that time- My heavyweight champion flea- I wonder if he is in heaven, Or if he may still worry me. The only difference between a stude chewing gum and a cow chewing her cud is that the cow usually looks thoughtful. The Modern Simile: As out of place as a man in a barber shop.

THE SIGN LANGUAGE Sign in front of a restaurant: We make our own hash. Another sign be- low it: Forgive them, for they know not what they do. On a furniture store: Ladies. save your back and rugs-let us clean them for you. On a poulterer's window: We want your eggs, and we want them bad. In a restaurant: Don't laugh at our coffee: you may be old and weak yourself some day. Sign in English butcher shop: I make sausages for the King. Someone added this: 'AGod save the King." Sign in an ice cream parlor: Take home a brick for your wife. Marion B.: I'm going to sneeze, Lester M.: At who? Marion B.: Atcheo! Stude: Which is the more useful to us. the "moon" or the "sun?" Stewed: The moon is, because it gives us more light at night when it is so dark: the sun shines only in the daytime when we don't need it. "Twelfth Night" is not a sequel to "Ten Nights in a Bar-room." ' UATE One day while walking down the street, A pretty girl I chanced to meet. ' She looked at me and smiled so shy, I said to me, myself, said I. "Now I will speak, and then mayhap. I'll be a very lucky chap." And then a little girl rushed by And before my quite astonished eye Walked to the lady of my choice And said, "Here's dad with the Rolls- Royce."

We have our mighty football yells And songs that seem quite nifty, But the universal college yell Is-"Dad, please wire me fifty." Cultured people are so welcome every- where that a lot of boys are now study- ing to be gentlemen. It's wonderful to be polished and know what restaurants to take your hat off in. There is no such word as fail-if you can see your neighbor's quiz paper. BETWEEN PLAYS Our team is just too sociable for any- thing! Do you suppose our men crouch- ed down and faced their opponents, be- tween plays, with not so much as a monosyllable to break the tedium? No! Our team doesn't do things that way. While our quarterback is giving the signal, our right end whispers to the Rhinelander left end, "My dear, I think you ought to wear your helmet a little more to the right." "Do you remember the one I wore last year?" asks the Rhinelander man. "Well, this is it." "VVhy, it looks just like new." I'A I' YNY lIlNIRFI7 TIIIHTI SIY "But it isn't. Do you know what I did? I added this rosette to the brim." "Dear, oh, dear!" murmurs the Antigo brute, "I wish I were as clever with my fingers as-" The ball is snapped into play and the fight is on. Rhinelander gets the ball and the men line up again. "My dear," says the Rhinelander cen- ter, "do you know what the center on the Wausau team said about you last week?" "About me?" "Yes, of course, I don't believe a word of it. but he said you were too fleshy around the hips." "Well, I never! The old cat, and he of all people! Why, I know for a fact-" At this point the Rhinelander man re- ceives a kick from the quarterback, which is a signal for him to pass the ball. At the end of the half, tea is served and lady-fingers are passed around. The two captains kiss. and. as I said before, our team is just too sociable for anything. "Papa, what is college bred?" "A four-year loaf, my son." , Miss Gannon: Why are burlap bands put around trunks of trees? Alice K.: So the coddling moth won't lay its seeds. f 1-HGHADIJATE T 1 WM?-'QQ' 5 M4 f fx 'gh 1 Tmuhlinl Y U Ak J 4 X fex W' gig ., I",-Tiguato hem mi SEQ? 3862155 Y XLR!!!

The high school history of my class. As a humble acorn our glass began, The class I mean. guess you can. And all the bumping the acorns get, We freshmen got, but did not fret, For it did seem but just a while- XVhen we advanced in sapling style. NVith sophomore flourish we faster grew, Growing on large leaves and branches too. And as we climbed for light and sun, Lo! Our troubles were just begun. Sprang up ice sleets, gave great pains, We learned troubles, worked our brains. And as time flew, so we went Under heavy odds, yet all content. Came one great day when we awoke, Our class had grown into an oak. We were the leaves: each waving breeze Gave us knowledge, seemed to tease. But as the year grew in days, Soon we learned the weather's ways. Since we were large enough to stop The harsh storm winds. whirled like a top, We soon received such awful blows That made us quiver to our toes.
