S THE Class of 1914 graduates it also marks the closing of a very success- ful year of our new superintendent- Elwin A. Ladd. At. the beginning of this school year Mr. Ladd took up the Work left by Professor John Kennedy. To take up the work where Professor Kennedy left off was no easy task. But Mr. Ladd has shown himself equal to that task. Since 1902 Mr. Ladd has been con- nected with this High School. He has won the heart of every individual and all who graduate this year appreciate the aid he has given to them. Mr. Ladd has also been highly in favor of athletics and social functions in the high school, and has always given them a helping hand. It was much to Mr, Ladd's joy that he was principal of the High School last year, when the largest graduating class in its history C at that timey was graduated. But now he enjoys being superintendent of the largest class ever graduating, sixty-three in number. It has been the delight of the graduates themselves that they have had such a capable person at their head, as Mr. Ladd. We, the Class of 1914, extend to Mr. Ladd our heartiest thanks for his- help and wish him much renown and success in his future work. 1 N if l S'Wi?1gfOl1 !if9S1:1'+i4M'-471-. .ft . fi .1 A1 'f , gf ' S1:N1o1z t'1i..xss lloolc T ll1'iSfi3Il Meye1', B.

Une ol' our chit-l' con- tributors is Mr. lYatts li. lilfllllltllltl. Since 1903 Mr. Ricluuoud has given various prizes. His chief :rizes are those along the line of drawing. Each one of the eiffht 1 1 71 departments receives a prize ot a. handsome hook. Mr. Richmond has also given a gold watch to the Ju wil havino' the highest stand- s 1 I5 1 ing throughout the four years of high school work. The late Byron Huntley left in trust of the lloard of Education an amount of money to he used each year for oratorical work. Two prizes of ten and tifteen dollars are given yearly to the two senior boys who do the best work along the line of oratory. This year Millard YVeed and Raymond Weldgen received first and second re- spectively. In addition, there are two axvards which have lr founded by the Daughters of the Ainerican Revolution. The A who attains the best standing in United States history during e year previous to high school entrance, and the person with the high- est, standing in the high school course in American History are awarded these prizes.

For what more can a lllilll do than lay down his life in upholding a. p1'i11.1-iple. Gabriel De Fahbio well knew, as we learn fi.-11111 l1is letters the risk l1e was running in facing the Mexicans on the horder. Yet he cheerfully rain that risk at. the cost of his young life, dying happy in the thought that he had gave his last full nieasure of devotion for his countiivis interests. It is with a. iningled feeling of sorrow and- pride that we dedi- eate this tree to his nieniory. We sympathize with and condole the parents of this noble youth in tl1eir hereavenient. Yet we feel proud to think that Batavia in years past has produced her sons to go forth in defense of the gorgeous eiuhleni of the republic. The question presents itself to us. Who is an American? Is he a. New England Puritan? Is he a Virginian Cavalier? ls he a western frontiersnian? The ancestors of so111e of us fought. for in- dependence and handed down a. nation free from tyranny and oppres- sion. They gave us a government of tl1e people, by the people and for the people. They were Aniericans. The fathers and grand- fathers of some of us laid at the altar of their country tl1e sacrifice of their young lives for the preservation of that 11a.tio11. They s-a.ved the Union of States for 11s. Tl1ey were Americans. To-day we plant a meniorial to one, who first saw the light of freedom on a foreign soilg one w11ose ancestors and ideals were for- eign to usg one who appreciated tl1e spirit of American freedom under lawful restraints and made it his. Thus he died preserving the integrity of the Hag. He was an American. nam. :JY , . E' -Q 1:-'V ' L 1' 5 ' A ig :JT , , ' ' V ' :,'n+, f' -fsefrfs.-.'

IGH SCHOOL days are nearly over, and it is only litting that amid the present rush ot closing days we should linger a moment and gaze backward through the mist that is fast closing about us, feasting our eyes upon the glories and honors of the past. Now as we stand upon the thresliold of lite, real lite, it is as if the pictures ot the old years were moving up and down the road. Four years ago, when as verdant Freshmen we entered these well- loved halls, we had no idea of class unity and school loyalty. Hut how dilterently do we now feel, think and even act! To be sure our four years' journey has wrought many changes. The excitement which usually attends an organization of Freslnnen was not lacking or our lirst meeting, where it was finally announced that from hence- forth we were to be called the Class of 1914. This was the first in- stance in the history of Bat-ivia High School of -1 class beinfv' organ L lv c c D D ' 7 ized in its freshman year. Unlike most. classes, we entered at once upon the active life of the school. The chief events of the year were a dance and a picnic. Usually the sophomore classes are so overcome with the realiza- tion of their importance that they have no time for social eventsg but in our case this did not hold true, for in February, 1912, we gave a sleigh-ride which was conceded to he .a huge success by all who attended it while a. picnic held at Horse Shoe Lake in June was greatly enjoyed by all. With our Junior year come new responsibilities, and we realized that the time had arrived when we might do more than merely give our support to student activities. Our athletes showed their strength and won the annual interclass track meet. Then came the necessity of giving the customary Wlunior Prom and picnic. From that time on our success was assured. We were no longer a mere igurehead, but were recognized as a. distinct, organized unit in the school. But while we were growing in strength and influence, Batavia High School was passing through a ceritable transition period, and as upper-classmen we haves done all in our power to bring her through with flying colors. The success which 4 14 Snxioia Cmss Boon 'tThe I'ica,yune has attained is due in a great measure to the repre- sentatives of our class who worked on it, and also to the loyal sup- port. of the class itself. Our fourth year has seen the establishment of a new organization, the Literary Society. -We directly helped in making this new venture a. success. Then too, our newly-established musical oi-gani.zations, the glee clubs and orchestra have -all called for a show of our interest and support, which we have cheerfully given in unstinted measure. This year as well as in former years, we have watched the boys of our class win fame in athletics. The glorious records which have been established in all branches of sport, have been due in some part to our loyal support. Then on that memorable Arbor Day we maintained the traditions of the school and planted the class tree. Then last but not least, we were ena-bled to aid in scoring a brilliant artistic success in the High School play. June, 1914, has a record-breaking class in size, has shown evi- dence of intellectual as well as social and athletic ability. It has been due to our direct eiforts. That debating has been established on so firm a. basis and the high scholarship attained is very gratifying. V After a few more glorious times-, 1914 will pass out of the im- mediate life of the school, and will be only a memory. And now let us turn and look out again into the future which lies in waiting, close-folded and hidden in beautiful mists. The real test of our metal is at hand, and our coming successes will reflect upon our Alma Mater. Let us enter upon our new life with Kfor- ward face and unreluctant soul,'7 a.nd directing our endeavors toward the worth-while things in life, with the determination. to make the future history of the Class of 1914 more brilliant, richer insuccess than ever its past has been.

That 'usedt to be her ambition before she actually did succeed our beloved Latin professor. Never mind throwing the brush at me, Leona.

'fYes, Carl Koester told me th.at-said Cyril drugs the folks and Bill buries them? W ell, he neednlt say anything.
