WARM SPRING Published by THE JUNIOR CLASS Bath District High School Berkeley Springs, West Virginia WARM SPRING ECHOES BATH DISTRICT HIGH SCHOOL Our school is only one of the thousands of others whose work is to prepare for life, those, who in future years, will hold the upper hand in our mighty nation. Yet to us, our school has a different meaning, when we join in on our “Hail Bath District,” or yell “fight, team, fight,” we have the same sort of feeling as one who, with uncovered head, watches the Stars and Stripes go by. Patriotism, they call it, and it serves two purposes—loyalty, and faithfulness to the country that we must some day help to rule, and respect for that school on the hill. Bath District is just such a school, a school in a small town of a small population, that has achieved great things. A never dying spirit in those, who uphold our name on the athletic field, and those who strive to make us better students. No one with an open heart can say that in future years, when I walk past that old school on the hill, that there is not a longing in my heart for those old school days. To the Seniors of this year, who have been safely brought to shore by our first-class high school, and those in former years, who sailed the sea of knowledge in an old sailing ship, we wish them luck and happiness in their future years. We hope that when dark days may come to them, they will look in our 1930 Annual, and once more live over the memories of their school days in Bath District High School. 9 3 0 Page seven WARM SPRING ECHOES TABLE OF CONTENTS Main Title Page - 3 Dedication 4 Foreword 6 Faculty 9 Seniors 13 Juniors 21 Sophomores 27 Freshmen 31 Organizations 35 Athletics 41 Calendar 49 Stories 54, 56 Jokes 61 Advertisements - - - 65 WARM SPRING ECHOES MISS ETTA ENROUGHTY John Marshall High Librarian E.

Page eighteen 19 3 0 WARM SPRUNG ECHOES HISTORY OF SENIOR CLASS Now the history of the Class of Thirty, of the High School of the Town of Bath, County of Morgan, State West Virginia, is in this wise: In the beginning, in the nineteen hundred and twenty-sixth year of our Lord, in the ninth month, and on the fifth day of the month, there entered into this Land of Learning, forty-eight seekers of knowledge. Some came up from the Eighth Grade, where they had for many months been busily engaged in storing their minds with the honey of wisdom; some were green and fresh from a far country; some came from farms, where they had been tillers of the soil; and some were from other halls of instruction. And it came to pass, as they did enter this land, with their banner of green and white, that they were received with wild welcomings and rejoicings by those, whom it was decreed should henceforth lead them up the slippery by-ways of knowledge. And as they dwelt long in the land, they fell in with the customs of the inhabitants thereof, and their strangeness wore away, and they each became as one among the rest. They soon found that they must have a leader, so a council was called and Henrietta Crowell was chosen as leader, with Philip Hunter and Helen Miller as helpers. Shortly afterwards, Henrietta was called away by the “Angel of Death,” and Philip Hunter then acted as leader for the remainder of the year. With memories of their first leader still clinging to their hearts, they traveled on. And it came to pass, after some months, that their eyes were turned toward graduation, but many, with one consent, began to make excuses. So, thus did this class decrease in numbers until the whole number at the end of the first year was twenty-six. Now it came to pass at the beginning of the second year, new leaders were chosen, and as the class did journey through the land, under the leadership of Henry Ruppenthall, and his helper, Iva Lee Yost, many hard battles were fought and won. Thus, the year passed by and we journeyed far into another land under the leadership of Willard Braithwaite. But a cry went up from the throat of the greedy class: “Lo! If it doth happen that we are to graduate after many days, it appeareth that there is much need of many dollars, wherewith to provide the song and dance thereof!” (Continued on Page 58) � 930 Paye nineteen ............WARM SPRING ECHOES SENIOR CLASS PLAY “KEMPY” was presented at the High- School Auditorium Friday.

D. H. S„ eagerly waiting for its welcoming doors to fling open and bid us enter. The sweet, melodious music coming from the nearby trees, seemed to take the form of a high ideal, from which we were to draw the inspiration for reaching the goal for which we were struggling. A large number of students enrolled in the Freshman year, some com- ing from the country, others from town. The way was strange and diffi- cult for a few, but they soon became accustomed to the rules. We were, as are all Freshmen, greatly ridiculed, but we accepted it in good faith, and with the exception of a few, landed on the Sophomore banks of the River of School. As Sophomores, we resolved to leave no stone upturned in conquest for achievement. Our class was declared to contain some of the best stu- dents in high school, due to literary and athletic abilities, and we deter- mined to shine with the great lights of history. Several of our classmates became discouraged and gave up the strug- gle, but the undefeatable qualities of which the rest of us were possessed, landed us safely on the Junior shore. We were sorry to have Margaret Goughian, Marguerite Michael, Mil- dred Harris, and Ama Yost leave us and take up their duties as Seniors, but two weeks later, Julia Hinds of Westville, Oklahoma joined our ranks. We are now in the center of our high school history. We are strug- gling to make our class stand out as the best to ever graduate from B. D. H. S. Each has tried to be faithful, and do his part in making the his- tory of the Junior Class something to honor. The Annual Staff is endeavoring to make it rank among the best that have ever been published. The history of the Junior Class is coming to a close, and behind it all is a thrill of sadness that seems to linger. Well-loved scenes are hasten- ing on, but “memory will make sweeter the joys of high school days.” —EVELYN STOTLER Page twenty-five WARM SPRING ECHOES JUNIOR CLASS PLAY The “Ghost Bird” was presented at Bath District High School in the closing weeks of school, May, 1930.

President ......... Vice-President Secretary and Treasurer The Freshman Class of 1929 is the Sophomore class of 1930, a sadder, but wiser congregation. The frivolous Fresh- men are now the sober Sophomores (excepting about 50 per cent). Many students have dropped out, making the class one of the smallest in number, but greatest in courage. At the beginning of the year, a class meeting was held, in which the above officers were elected. With these leaders, the class was ready to do or dare, and has succeeded. Their second year at the mast is nearing a close, and still no one deserts; education must go on! The class has been well represented in athletics, having Augusta Ruppenthall, Pat Miller, Clifford Newbraugh, and Cletus Price out for football, and one out for basketball. It has been represented both in talent of work and Lit- erary Society. In all, the Sophomore Class is always on the job.

On a bright sunny morning, Septem- ber 9, 1929, a group of boys and girls were anxiously waiting for the doors of Bath District High School to open. During this month, fifty-two girls and boys enrolled as “Freshmen.” Kathryn Beard graduated into the field of matrimony; Donald Pentoney, before second semester, enrolled as a stu- dent at another place; and Adelaide Hewett on account of illness, were the only ones to leave the class. The Freshman Class has considerable talent along the vocal and stunt lines. They were awarded the banner for having the best stunt “Stunt Night,” with the three other classes competing. The class belongs to the Morgan Literary Society, and has tried to add to their programs. The Freshman Class has many students interested in the athletics of the school. Helen Waugh, Edwarda Michael, Edna Everetts, Virginia Wharton, Mary Gates, Ruth Cough- lan, and Mary Phillips, are out for the Girls’ Basketball Team. Charles and Edgar Lee Burkhart, and Frank Wise, are out for the Boys’ Basketball Team. We have hopes of continuing together, the three remain- ing years with prospects of great success.

The team being composed of only one veteran, has proved to our minds that a fast little team is as good as a large team. Although the team has broken no records, as far as the C. V. A. L. League goes, it has, nevertheless, beaten all the teams in its class, and made good showings against such teams as Hagerstown and Waynesboro. The lost “fight spirit” of 1928, was regained this year, and not a sin- gle game lost interest until the final whistle blew. Next year, with an experienced squad, great things are looked forward to.

The boys faced a hard schedule, and came out better than was expected. Losing five veterans last year, like the girls’ team, it was rebuilt of fresh material, and the results were surprising. For the first time in many years, the school followed the squad’s games. Cheer- ing with each victory, but bearing the fighting spirit with each loss. This being the second year in the C. V. A. L. circuit. Our team fin- ishing with a five hundred per cent, and by defeating our old rivals twice, the only times they were defeated by Hagerstown. We defeated Martins- burg for the championship, and finished in third place. Next year we are going to win the championship, and are already picking a place to hang the trophy.

He needed only the cry of the hounds, or the dull rhythmic beat of horses’ hoofs on soft turf to set his pulses athrob and his blood tingling. Perhaps it was this love of the chance—for what sport is not just a huge chance?—that first set Chan to thinking of cards; also, as I have said beforte, he was a financier. Chan was a sophomore at the University, where he met Ellen. It was just after the Dover-University game, and he was swinging lazily down the frat house steps, when he heard a little cry of dismay. “Oh! My new dress! It’s all ruined.” A red roadster was tearing down the street, and the tiniest, loveliest, sweetest little bit of humanity in the world was clutching the mud-be- spattered ruins of a miniature white skirt, while the bluest of forget-me- not eyes rained floods of tears. That was Ellen, and impetuous Chan adored her from the first, mud and all. Any mud that touched that dear face was sacred. Three heavenly years more at the university, and a little yellow cot- tage sprang up in the midst of a tiny green lawn, just on the outskii-ts of town, and Chan started out as a partner in his father’s firm. For a while, things ran smoothly—then Chan began to be absent at intervals—first from social engagements, then from dinners at home and finally there came a night when the little ivory clock struck three, and Chan was not at home. Ellen could not sleep. For a while the curly head tossed restlessly to and fro on the pillow, already damp with tears—then, springing out of bed and flinging a .negligee around her shoulders, she stumbled down the stairs to the desk phone and called the club. A sleepy voice, almost in- audible, answered her hurried questions. “Yes, Mrs. Adams. Your husband here? Just a minute, I’ll see.” Then Chan’s voice telling her that he would be right home, and to hop into bed, or she would have the cold of her life. (The cold of her life, when Chan had not come home at three o’clock! But he wouldn’t under- stand. She loved him). Ellen crept back into bed, and scarcely breathing, waited until she heard Chan’s step on the stairs—a slight, unsteady step, unlike his firm, quick manner of walking. Then the door opened—Chan was drunk! “Oh! Chan, how could you do this to me?” “ ’S all right, Ellen—just hadda lil’ drink o’ beer. Shure did clean up that ‘ole’ joint.” And he pulled out a huge roll of soiled greenbacks. That was the beginning. If Ellen’s heart was breaking, no one knew but Ellen. Perhaps Chan had just an inkling of the terrible struggle going on in that brave little breast, but he was too far gone. To the outside world, the Adams were the same happy, contented couple, blissfully de- voted to one another, but if one had looked more closely—examined more carefully—he would have seen the tragedy lurking behind the lovelight WARM SPRING ECHOES in Ellen’s eyes, and noted the mottled bloating of Chan’s face, taking from it, its youth and firmness. Chan’s business grew, and soon the little yellow cottage was ex- changed for a ‘brownstone’ on Laurel Avenue. Ellen had one thing to thank Chan for. At least, he did not bring the men in his crowd to his home. There was still a little spark of manhood left; still a bit of respect for the wife he worshipped, and it was this little difference to her that kept the fire of love and hope burning in Ellen’s breast. It was just at this time that an old Spanish treasure castle in Mex- ico was opened to tourists, and wishing to explore some of the old Mexican ruins, Chan suggested a motor trip into the interior. It seemed like a gift straight from heaven to Ellen. To get Chan away from his old environ- ment, out into the clean, open spaces—why hadn’t she thought of it be- fore? There, if anywhere, manhood would triumph, and Chan would come back a new man. But Ellen did not know that Chan was losing steadily— that the “brownstone” was under a heavy mortgage—and that that very night he had given a check for fifteen thousand dollars to cover his I-O-U for the game the night before. It was in an old Jesuit Mission in the heart of sunny Mexico that Chan picked up a worn leather-backed Bible, and leafing through its pages, found this clipping: “As you sow, so shall you reap.” What wreck of manhood or womanhood placed that clipping between the leaves of a Bible before going out to meet the Grim Reaper? What fate prompted Chan Adams to read those words so vividly applicable to his own life? God alone knows the answer to that question—but let it suffice to say that Chan knew that the message was meant for him. That night in a stuffy little third-story room in a Mexican saloon, Chan, mild eyed, feverish, panting in the crisis, bent over the card table. Coins clinked—chips rattled—harsh voices muttered demoniac curses. It was now or never. If he won, he gave up the cards for good; if he lost— but he must not lose! The stakes grew higher; the tension grew almost unbearable. There was a sudden hush. It was Chan’s bid. All eyes were on the man who played as if his life were at stake. Then Chan offered the greatest prize in his life on the altar of sacrifice—to win or lose, just as he won or lost the game. His home, his honor, his friends were gone— Ellen and his happiness were at stake. The first hand was down! The second! The third! Chan turned over his cards. Chan had lost! There was an open window to the left of the table. Slowly and calm- ly, as if to get a bit of air, Chan arose from his chair, picked up a tiny, yellow slip of paper, walked to the window and stepped over the sill into space. There was no outcry — no sound, except the crunch of a body against stone. Two months later, a tiny black-robed figure, choking with sobs, bent over a mutilated body in an old Mexican Canal, and extracting a slip of paper from the clenched hand, read the following words: “As you sow, so shall you reap! Beware of the reaper, Death!” 1 9 3 Page fifty-five WARM SPRING ECHOES A DISSERTATION ON YO-YOS Many years ago, if I am not mistaken (my memory is not as good as in my younger days) I came upon a corked bottle floating in the surf at Youla. Anxious to see what it contained, and I don’t mind admitting I was looking for it to be fire water; I was disgusted to find it contained nothing more than a rolled manuscript. I carefully uncorked the bottle and extracted the instructions that have revolutionized the world. Being of too great a length to place before you at this reading, I have dealt upon a plan of separating the facts from the tedious Chinese methods of long, drawn-out narrative and am going to tell you just how our fam- ous Hy-lo was discovered. The manuscript was dated twenty-four A.D., so I take it, that 24 minutes after dinner (A.D.) a sheep herder Mutton took it upon himself to write or tell the world the great discovery. “High Low, the son of Telladebunk, had the brain of a canary, he was always inventing this, that, and another. Already he had to his credit, six wonderful inventions, the sound-proof handkerchief, the disap- pearing boat, which always sunk out of sight when launched, and nu- merous other inventions. The most wonderful was yet to come, and like his holeless doughnut, was purely by accident.” High Low, as his daily duty was to drive to town each day in his ox cart, found himself on his way early one morning in May. He was taking a large ox to market, and had it tied by a twenty-foot rope to the rear axle. Now, as the manuscript says, the trouble, or maybe I had better say salvatiqn, began. The wheels on an ox cart are wide, and, being uneven, with the use of the axle, will usually balance. Thus, when High Low’s oxen cart reached the highest point on the “do-funny” mountains, an accident occurred. The right wheel on the cart came off, and balanced, as I stated before, began rolling down the hill at an enormous speed. The ox, which had not yet reached the top, was considerably hurried by the rolling wheel. Probably our secret would have never been discovered had it not been that, when the ox reached the wagon, he stopped. The sudden stop of the wheel broke his neck, but the wheel, instead of stopping there, began rolling rapidly back towards the wagon. Thus, for the first time, the principle of the Yo-Yo was shown to the world. High Low was amazed—and amazed is a mild word to use; in all his life he had never seen a wheel roll up hill! With protruding eyes, he watched it reach the cart, descend the other side, wind back up, arid then roll down the other side. Ten times he watched it, and then turning on his heels, hustled to town with the speed of a colored man seeing a ghost. When he reached the town, the following conversation took place: “Hurry, Hurry, the Gods are rolling wheels up hills, come on!” and he started back. Although the people believed him seized by the spirits, they nevertheless followed him. When they reached the cart, High Low told them to be careful, and hastened to the top. At the bottom lay the wheel, on its side! WARM SPRING ECHOES High Low looked unbelievingly, and the people, shaking their heads, and reverently crossing themselves, filed slowly back to town. Right here the manuscript became so tedious and boresome, that I have only placed the gist of it down. High Low’s reputation was ruined, the people would never believe him or his occasions again. However, High Low was not defeated. He deter- mined to show the people that what he had seen was true. Weeks of anxious work was forward day after day and placed behind him after each day’s work. At last it was completed, two small wheels a quarter of an inch apart, equally balanced with a string wrapped around the middle; thus, High Low at his command, could let the little wheels run down the string al- ways to return back. Proud of his invention he started for town to prove to the people that he had a wheel which would climb hills. Tying it upon his finger, he walked through the market place, the Hy-Lo rapidly descending and as- cending. The people looked on in wonder and amazement. “Surely,” said one, “The devil has been amongst us!” Little groups of excited people gathered on the corners, and the fol- lowing conversation took place: “Who is he?” “The sheepherder of Youla, High Low.” “We must arrest him, he has the spirit of devils.” And so High Low, uncertain of his fate, allowed the men to sur- round him. When within reach, they pulled him to the ground and se- curely tying him, carried him before their supreme judge, Ola Bola. The fate of the little inventor was ruined, the judge (as the manu- script tells), was a beastly old Chinaman, who ruled the country with ideas of the stone age. After the case had been placed before him. and evidence produced, the narrow-minded jurymen pronounced him guilty, and he was sentenced to die. However, when the blindfold was placed over his eyes, and the great sword in the hand of Ola Bola was about to fall, it was asked if there was anything he wanted to say. “Take my manuscripts, place them in a corked bottle, and toss them into the sea, as the Gods would have me do.” And so the history of Hy-Lo was finished until I found the bottle. I turned the instructions over to a manufacturer, and now High Low is revenged. The whole world plays, and I’s regusted! —Eugene Miller 19 3 0 Page fifty-seven WARM SPRING ECHOES SENIOR HISTORY (Continued from Page 19) Arid so, thinking these things, the class prepared a play, “Oh, Kay,” and the public was bidden that money might be brought into the treasury. And it came to pass, that the chronicles of their band must be writ- ten, this they undertook and successfully recorded. And behold, as the class went on its way in great rejoicing through the land of plenty and of promise, they did overtake two knights, whose companies had gone far on without them, and who were wrondering with three fair damsels, who had left thpir land and had journeyed on into the land of the Seniors, and they cried with a loud voice, saying, “Take us into your class, we pray you, for we have wandered far from our com- panions.” And as they spoke unto them, even so did the Class of ’30 listen and have compassion onto them, and it was done unto them, even as they asked. The fourth year in the history of this great and wonderful Class of ’30, has been one of much hard labor, and but little resting by the way- side; for preparations have been making ready for them to take their final departure from the land. Again they gathered around the council fire, and Henry Ruppenthall was again chosen as their leader, with Junior Hunter, and Iva Lee Yost as helpers. So it has come to pass, that of the forty-eight that entered this land in twenty-six, only twenty-eight will depart, for verily, verily, I say unto you, that broad is the gate, and wide is the way that leadeth to the High School, and many there be that go in threat; but straight is the gate, and narrow is the way (.hat leadeth to graduation, and few there be that find it. Four years hath the Class of ’30 sojourned in the land, and gathered in large portions the fruits from the Tree of Knowledge. But it is written, “In the day when ye shall have eaten of all these fruits, ye shall surely be driven forth from the land!” Now, I say unto you, they must depart thence, to go each a separate way, to lands they know not of, to do they know not what. And now, may the blessings that ever attend the noble, and good and true, follow and abide with us, each and all, now and forevermore. —Henry Ruppenthall, Jr. WARM SPRING ECHOES ANNUAL GLEE CLUB CONCERT MARCH 21, 1930 High School Auditorium Fairy Moonlight......................

WARM SPRING ECHOES PLAYING HOOKEY ’Twas the sunny noon hour, March 25th, Old Bath District High School was all adrift. The bell had rung—the teacher smiled, Mr. Beddow seemed rather “riled,” But where were the students, so blithe and gay ? Over to Cacapon for the rest of the day. We all were playin’ “hookey.” Bummin’ rides—fixin’ flat tires, We whiled away the afternoon hours. Snitc-hin’ pop when the truck stood nigh me! (You needn’t shame!) ’cause it said, “Try Me!” Finally, when all was said and done, We decided we’d had about all the fun We could get from playin’ “hookey,” But, Oh! the nite, and the dawn of next morn, Every one looked so wan and forlorn; Then some one laughed, no more looked afraid, He can’t do a thing, but cut our grade. From class rooms came students, expecting abuses Mr. Beddow, perspiring, was writing excuses, For the gang that had played “hookey.” Now ends our chronicle, here in this room, Gone all the sorrow—gone all the gloom, Every one’s happy, wearin’ a grin, Having some more fun, while we stay in, The time of our lives, we’ll never forget Going to Cacapon, we’ll never regret, Such fun in playing “hookey!” —Maxine McCoy WARM SPRING ECHOES Kenneth Kerns—My love for you can not be expressed in words.
