Page Ten HAIL, WEST VIRGIN IA , In the past, West Virginia has been inaligned, verified, misrepresented, wilfully and maliciously lied about. Scurrilous articles, and ludricrous cartoons have appear- ed in the newspapers. We have calmly looked on without attempting to explain. Those of us who are loyal West Virginians and good Americans have resented these unjust attacks. We have assumed that thinking people would not give credence to the gross misrepresentations and false statements. When a native West Virginian strays to one of the outside states, people gaze at him with wonder mingled with half fear. They look closely at his coat to see if they can discern the imprint of a six shooter in his hip pocket. They regard him as an exhibit, and one of the questions they ask is: "Do you live near where all the fighting has been going on"? If the West Virginian has a sense of humor, and most people from this state have, he will answer: "Yes, I have six notches on my gun". Not only is West Virginia the most irregular in outline but the most mountain- ous. It is sometimes referred to as "The Little Mountain State". Whether we see the hills and Valleys or everchanging scenes on the huge mountains covered with luxuriant forests, grandeur and simplicity is on every hand. Many people do not know West Virginia, as the state that has the most hospitable people in the world.

Freshman Year On September the 8th, 1919, 105 Freshmen entered High School with the determination to pass through with flying colors. They were given a warm reception, and through the aid of their older and wiser class mates this new class soon became as one of the old ones. They soon observed that it was wise as well as customary to safeguard themselves by electing officers, so at an early date a meeting was held in which the following officers were elected: President ................................,,., John Caplinger Vice P1'eS-ident ..... ........... V irgil Currence ' Secretary .................................. Elizabeth Caslow Treasurer ..,...................,... George N. Wilson, Jr. The home room of the Freshmen was the study hall from which On September the Sth, 1919, 105 Freshmen entered High School vantage point more than one great event got its impetus. The first of these interesting events was the Freshmen Party. E One fine winter evening the Freshmen and Faculty assembled in the 'High School halls to enjoy a party which proved to be very athletic in nature. The guests participated in a field meet, after assembling themselves in four opposing groups of contestants, Much interest and great skill were displayed by contestants in each group. However, the meet was brought to a sudden stampede by the sudden flashing off of every electric light, and the wild cry of "watch the eats!" As usual Miss Charnock was at the call and rescue of the Freshmen and just as the lights were recovered, per- formed the champion feat of the evening by detaining one of the offenders "by the collar," and in so doing frightening the others away. The "eats" were saved and all the more enjoyed after being so hard earned by all participants. The next social event was a Wiener and marshmollow roast at Marstillar grove. Every one enjoyed themselves in games and after supper was over settled themselves around th fire to pass the evening in story telling, when as usual a spring shower interfered and the pisnic was brought to a close much sooner than ordinary. On stunt night the Freshmen undoubtedly won the laurels of the evening by presenting, "An Old Fashioned Church". The Freshmen were justly proud of their athletic achievements during this year. In the Inter-Class Tournament, the Freshmen team was defeated by only two points by the champion Sophomore team. Two of the regular players on the varsity basket-ball team were Freshmen. The varsity foot ball team also had three Fresh- men representatives. A week before exams in the second semester, the social season was brought to a close by an immense party, the whole school attend- ing, As for exams, suffice to say that the whole of the Freshmen were prepared for the trying ordeal, and were found in the ranks of the survivors so that the end of the year the Freshmen, practic- ally as a body, found themselves, Sophomores. CHAPTER II Sophomore Year. The class of '23 entered its second year with an enrollment of eighty brilliant pupils. The Class found itself grouped into three divisions presided over by Miss May Wilt, Miss Beatrice Wilt, and Miss Ethel Getrost. We should greatly praise the efforts of these October 20, Skeeter Marshall was dated up at the Clark Homestead. teachers to mold the class of '23 into the great class it has besome. At the outset, in' order to secure union and concerted action on the part of so many widely scattered Sophomores, we organized and elected the following officers for the year: Page Forty-three A CLASS HISTORY President ............ ...,..

Several of the class started out to find a suitable place for the picnic. Half an hour' later the rest of the class start- ed out to find them, and after being led through many Winding paths, by means of a blazed trail, they finally found themselves at Haddix Farm. The evening was enjoyed by all, and after supper, they amused themselves by getting in sight of the grave-yard and telling ghost stories. ' The next event was a toureen supper which was a great success, But the Sophomores were interested -in more lasting happiness than that of the social life. The Class of '23 was greatly interested team put on a very game fight, losing only to the champion Juniors in the last few minutes of the bame. But '23 was rewarded for, by their own efforts and the excellent aid of their cheer leader, Carleton Smith, they were awarded the cheering cup for the year Of 1920. The' year was now drawing to a close and the class was getting ready to end its second stage of the journey. The last great social event was the Sophomore-Senior picnic held in the Canfield grove. This was a most enjoyable event and will long be remembered. When the days of examinations dawned the class of '23 was able to overcome all obstacles and in due time were advanced to the rank of Juniors. CHAPTER III A Junior Year of '23 ' The class of '23 opened its Junior year with a great show of old time spirit. It was found that our roll numbered but '72 Jun- iors. During the two proceeding years the number had steadily decreased. Some had left to continue their studies in other educa- tional institutions, some entered the business world and still others could not survive' the examinations and were in lower classes. The class was paced under the care of Miss Wilt and Miss Wilmoth. Thanks to their timely advise and wisdom '23 has been spared many a misstep, In early September' we chose to guide the destinies of the Jun- iors, the following officers: President ............... ...,..... J ohn Caplinger Vice-President ..... ....... E lmer Florentino Secretary ............ ................. C atherine ody Treasure ............................ George N. Wilson, Jr. October 21, E. H. S. 18, Fairmont 6. Page Forty-four The class of '23 opened its social season by a picnic on the Had- dix farm. This most enjoyable event was broken up by a heavy downpour of rain. Though this dampened their spirits somewhat, no serious consequences followed and the next morning found the class refreshed in body and spirit. The next event was a party for the foot-ball boys. This party was famous for its many good Heats". In the early winter the Juniors went for a sleigh ride and we are sure the store manager at Gilman will not soon forget our rush for "eats", The class of '23 now fell earnestly to work mastering the prob- lems set before it, broken only occasionally by minortsocial events. ' The class basket-ball team was entered into the inter-class tournament and was eliminated after a-hard fight, . CLASS HISTORY Then realizing that there was much talent among them the class of '23 decided to give- a play, in spite of the fact that Junior plays were not customary. "Music Hath Harms", a most delightful and original performance will not soon be forgotten by the public of Elkins. An after-noon performance was given and afterwards the entire cast remained at the school building until time for the evening performance and were served a delicious supper by Miss Wilmoth and Miss Wilt. The Junior-Senior picnic held in Hart's grove was the last and most enjoyable event of the season. The grounds were prettily decorated and punch was served at all hours, drawn from a well by the old, oaken bucket. After being plentifully served by many good things to eat the crowd gathered round the fire to toast marshmallows and at a late hour dispersed for home. Then it was that the class of '23 found itself looking forward to their Senior year, CHAPTER IV. Senior Year. The Seniors returned to school very sedately, feeling their im- portance as all Seniors should. They found that good fortune had once more smiled upon them for they were reassigned to the rooms of Miss Wilt and Miss Wilmoth, their faithful teachers. The class of '23 cannot speak too highly of the help and spirit of willingness shown by these teachers. Early in the year the class met and chose the following officers to reign over them in their Senior year. PI'6S1dGI1i2 ...................................... John Caplinger Vice-President ...,. ..,,,,.,,,,,,,,, L Ioyd Tetey Secretary ...................................... Catherine Cody Treasurer .......................... George N. Wilson, Jr. The social season was opened by several hikes and picnics. One of the best of these was the one held out near Scott's Ford. The class will not soon forget their perilous descent down the moun- tain side after dark. Another picnic was held on the college cam- pus, which was enjoyed by everyone. Another was held in Dutch- man's Hollow. Everyone had a good time on this picnic in spite of the intense cold due to the lateness of the season. Ever noted for their originality the Seniors decided that they October 22, All was quiet along the Tygarts Valley. would be the first to go on a camping trip. So accordingly they took their bags and baggage and departed for Holesberry's farm to spend the week end. Those days will never be forgotten by any Seniors. Next came the play presented by the Senior class. After hard work and training "Penrod" was presented by an admirable cast. There was a recrd breaking attendance and those who saw it are still talking about the play. The proceeds from "Penrod" amount- ed to more than those of any play presented in the High School building. Then the Seniors, in order to prevent the disease of "Clubs" which every year' spreads through the Senior class, conceived the idea of an entire Senior Club with a real club room. So in keeping with the iniative of the Seniors, rooms were rented in the Scott building for regular club rooms. These rooms were open for all members of the club and for the purpose of holding class parties. Then as the Seniors' pride grew within them, '23 desire to have badges befitting their station. So letters were written far and wide for samples of fine jewelry and after an interminable length of time, the class was presented with Senior rings. Page Forty-five CLASS HISTORY Then the members of '23 realized their great and good quali- ties and determined that their likeness and form should not be lost on the future generations. So., accordingly they Went down to Nestor, a maker of photographs, and said to him: "Reproduce for us our likeness on paper that we may preserve them for the coming generations," and it was done. Then the other classes viewing the graduates of the class of '23 intrusted to their care the management of the Tiger and Cub. Elizabeth Caslow was chosen editor of the Tiger and Ac Ruble as October 23, Jim Talbott forgot to comb his hair. Page Forty-six editor of the Cub. Great has been the success of these papers. They stand as worthy tributes to the class of '23, Then as the days passed and '23 neared the end of their days in high school, great was their joy, for they were soon to graduate and there was great sorrow in the rest of the classes as the day of departure neared, Many parties and feasts were held in honor of the Seniors and when the great day of graduation dawned the class of '23 bade farewell to the other classes and went on their way rejoicing, the best class that ever came out of E.

Page Fifty PROPHECY CLASS OF ' 2 3 The other day, while gloomily contemplatnig the approaching end of our happy High Sch-ool days, I strolled from home, hoping in the quiet peace of the open fields to find relief from the morbid obsession which had come upon me. Lost in sad thought, I little noticed where I wandered and soon found myself miles from home. Overcome with the weariness of my long walk, I sat down beneath the shady branches of a giant oak to rest. Then I fell asleep. How long I remained in the embrace of this deep and dreamless sleep I do not know, but suddenly a violent quivering, seemingly, of earth and tree aroused me. Terrified and dazed I sat bolt up- right and gazed around. My first impression was that I had slept many hours and night had fallen, for a peculiar light, resembling dusk yet different, was over the earth. But with it all there was the persistent feeling, uncanny and terrifying, that something was wrong, that a change had occured in my surroundings which my dazed faculties could not grasp. Puzzled and almost believing that I was still dreaming, I pon- dered over the extraordinary situation in an attempt to regain my normal self. Then with an almost paralyzing shock it came to me that I was in a new world. With this revelation I observed my sur- roundings with an intense interest, noticing for the first time that I was in an indescribably beautiful valley. Over this there lay a gloriously green carpet of growth resembling the tender shoots of young grass, yet more of an emerald hue. Through this there wound a stream of pure silver from whose surface reflected lights of every shade and hue. From where I sat October 28, E. H. S. 14, Grafton 0. the floor of the valley seemed to slope up in every direction in gentle swells that lost themselves in great. banks of tenous low-hung haze. Overhead there was neither sun nor moon nor stars, and the light was that of a sunless day, resembling in its tints the Aurora Borea- lis. Trees there were none and my giant oak had given way to a pillar of rose-tinted mist. Further observance on my part was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the strange being, coming seemingly from the pillar of mist which towered above me in place of my giant oak. I have never' seen a stranger being. His feet were winged like a Pegasus and in his right arm he carried a Scythe of T'ime. His alabaster- like countenance was human with the exception that it had only one large eye in the middle of the forehead, with a look in it as one who sees beyond the years. , "Earth-Being, I am the Herald of the Present just come from the Royal Palace of the Ancient Seer. He bids you enter his pre- sence." Turning he vanished. I arose seemingly floating on air, and was enveloped in a pillar of mist. The next instant Ifound myself at the portals of a magnificent palace. They opened and I entered into a large hall. I beheld at the far end a raised throne on which sat a magnificently robed being. Advancing to this I knelt in awed humiltiy and was at once told to arise. "Earth-Being, you were predestined aeons ago by the Court of Seers to render a great service to your world. It is the policy of the Infinite Seer from time to time to reveal coming events of world-wide importance to those who are wise enough to believe. Page Fifty-one CLASS PROPHECY You are a member of the great Class of '23, a class whose future achievements will shape for ages the destiny of your world." Here he arose, with his great deep eyes burning with the pro- phetic fires of the ages, and streched out his hands as in a silent benediction. Then in a deep voice, vibrant with the power of eter- nity he continued, "Earth-Being, you, are one of the very few of your kind to be accorded the rare privilege of entering the Mystic Valley of To-Be. Only the extreme magnitude of the occasion has made this possible for' you, for the Class of '23 will rock the world with their atcions yet to come. Your people must be prepared a little in advance. There will now be revealed to you the future careers of your class-mates. On yonder silver pedestal in the center of the room you will find seventy golden plates on which you will find written the separate achievements that will come to pass in the lives of the respective members of your class. Advance, Earth-Being, and read." A cloud of purple mist enshrouded the throne pedestal and looking at the first of the golden plates I began to read. 1928 Elizabeth Flint is the wife of a wealthy doctor, living in a cozy little bungalow in the suburbs of Baltimore.

A blinding darkness followed, and then a boundless void through which I seemed to be falling. I shrieked-a mere gasp-a blinding flash of light, and then-I found myself rubbing my eyes and blinking dazedly under my giant oak, with the sun Well dovvn in the Western sky and a soft breeze playing at hide and seek among the gnarled branches over my head. Hurriedly I arose and started for home. My morbid obsession of earlier in the day was gone. L. M, '23 HORO SCOPE Name Glendine Ashby ..., ..... Rachel Ashby ..... Paul Barnard ..... Wilma.

Page Fifty-seven CAMP 623 On Friday afternoon October 6th the happy bunch of Seniors set out for a merry chase. We wended our way through the fields of corn and dug our way through the .dusty roads. At the end of every mile there was another one to begin on, so we kept that up until we strolled into camp which was about four miles from town. Tired and hungry, but happy-We ate and there wasn't much trouble in washing dishes that night, After supper, a bright camp fire was made and we sat around it, gave yells and sang. Soon it was time for us to have our beauty sleep. We were all assigned our beds, and were off to slumberland Qearly in the morning.J M Quite a lot of excitement was aroused when a rat thoughtshe would "do well" to come and listen to our merry making. . When we were just about to take another fifteen minutes sleep, the alarm clock commenced ringing and everyone thinking it to be about seven o'clock, jumped up and got ready for the next day- to our dismay we found it to. be only two o'clock. We werenit long for this work so, we thought we would do well, to get five more hours sleep. We woke up next morning, full of pep and ready to do any- thing our dear teachers Wanted us to do. Saturday was rather damp but that didn't spoil our fun. Hunt- ing chestnuts and taking pictures fwhen the sun would take a notion to shinej was the main diversion of the afternoon. Saturday night another big camp fire was made. Everyone November 2, Clifford Harris wore his Tragedy "Hose", Page Fifty-eight was sleepy so we hit for our beds after, so long a time, and slept like logs only to be awakened by the fire drill in the boys dormitory at two o'clock. The dormitory being emptied in less than no time. Keith Cunningham made the best showing. Well the next morning we woke up and found ourselves so stiff that we could hardly move. Miss Wilmoth, instructress of standing down and setting up exercises, got busy and had her' class assemble on the green, having our ex- ercises which helped to get stiffness out, ending in a two hundred yard dash-discuss, The boys organized a football team., but the girls team took the "tin cup" and you would be surprised to find such wonderful acro- bats, as are in the Senior Class. Sunday afternon was spent in taking' many pictures, but Pocahontas appeared on the scene and saved all our livesf but one.J Our departure from the Wonderful place was delayed by Keith's "egg tuck," in which he endeavored to demonstrate a new way of scrambling eggs in his pocket. This was a good trick, but proved disastrous to the pocket, which had to be arnputated. As this bunch of Seniors were, and are so well bred We had to call on the "Cody bread wagon" to carry in the loaves which were thirty in number. They were given to the Welfare Club. At five o'clock Sunday afternoon we were homeward bound. We took our time and arrived home at seven, after a most wonder- ful time at camp never to be forgotten. Monday morning, it was all We could do to get to school after our strenuous exercises and long walk. M. V. W. '23, l - THE SENIOR'S FALL CAMP November 3, Special to Philippi E. H. S. 56, Philippi 0. Fifty-ni r n UNREASONABLE RHYMES OUR GENERAL ASSEMBLE On Wednesday morning, to chappel we go, There to endure some hours of woe, With many brave cheers, our chappel begun, Which makes the visitors all feel young. Miss Lawson arises and clears her throat, ' "98, please-begin the first note. Your past singing has been getting my goat, Now, do your best-burst the buttons off your coat!" Then Mr. Trent gets up and speaks, For thirty minutes-which seems like weeks. Mr. Gibson, says, "I've some announcements to make." Then we think, "Oh! my gosh, how much time will this take." Then by the orchestra-a new piece they say, But we'd know the difference any old day. 'Tis no mystery to us what song will come next For "Hail, West Virginia," is ever our text ! ! M. L. N.-E. J. C.

Under his arm he wore many books Which seemed to account for the weary looks. He seemed to say, "O, could I find Some means to rest my weary mind, Where I could have my dearest wish Like those attending schools of fish Not a single teacher or even books, I could live, as the great looks On in its solemn, foolish way. But why should I dream on this spring day? Dreaming of things that ne'er come true, For I must toil as the others do. N. T. '23.

It commands a most Wonderful View and right in the front door iso to speakb is the most wonderful lake of pure water abounding in fish and reflecting the beauty of its surroundings and at the close of day the golden colors of the setting sun. Notice the skins on the cabin wall, which shows that the own- er is an excellent hunter and good sportsman. Also notice the well, the wheel barrow and spaed, the "Old Home Town" canoe at the margin of the lake, the chopping log with its scout axe and likewise the wash pan and its stand at the back porch, but I leave V NOTE WATCH November 5, The Beverly Train arrived on time. f l t THECAMP that to you as it would take pages and pages to point out the advantages which abound at this particular spot. But alas this Camp is of no use to the world as one can easily see by the "No Trespassingu sign that to inspect it would insure a heavy penalty. And then the owner does not use it him- self nor will he sell it at any price-because it is only two feet high and it covers no more than three square yards of ground. But Mr. Barry says that everyone can enjoy the pleasure of inspecting it and imagining that they were small enough to enjoy the grandest spot in the whole world. That of a camper who lives next to nature, and appreciates its beauty. He also states that as it is so complete in every detail and is ready to live in, if a dwarf or fairy can be found small enough to live in it, he will heartily make, them a present of the camp, ground and all. So watch out and if you see any elves such as Mother Goose talks about just make them happy by sending them to this minature camp.

One thing for them to live up to is a one-hundred per cent Tiger subscription for which we were awarded a gold and black pennant by the dignified C71 Tiger Manager.

Subs Drive Into Elkins, Page Sixty-eight of which was a Halloween party at which everyone from Little Bo- Peep to a Roman gladiator was represented. Soon after a banquet was given by the Sophomores to the faculty, at which everyone had a glorious time. As it has been thought that a slight relenting on the part of the faculty towards the Sophomores has been detected since then, the experiment may be tried again soon. The first snow storm having offered irresistable temptation, a sleigh ride to Beverly and back was held-by the Sophomores. The - good citizens of Beverly, on hearing their arrival, stired restlessly in their beds and dreamed of '76. The Sophomores showed their dramatic ability by two plays, "An Economical Boomerangi' and "Pierrot and Pierrotte." Both plays were successfully given in assembly, the first being humorous and the second a delightful fantasy. The following class song was composed to show the feeling of the students towards their class. Chorus. And we'll cheer, cheer, cheer, For the class of twenty-five, And dear old Elkins High, For her we'll always strive, And though Sophomores all We'1l oft repeat the vow, To twenty, to twenty, to twenty-five.

November 17, No School, Page Seventy-one FRE SHMEN Albert Harrold. The class of 1926 first appeared and made themselves promi- nent on September 12, 1923. They claim to have had less trouble in growing accustomed to High School life than probably any other class. They stood out a mighty group, well represented in every branch of activitiesg soon became well organized and certainly dis- missed all fears which had threatened their predecessors. Shortly after the opening of school, they had a meeting and of course elected the following officers: Louise Buzzard ...,...... ...,. President Ada Ward ........ ..... S ecretary Joe Skidmore ....... .................... T reasurer Clarence Coffman .............. Student Council Rep. Socially, they soon became active, and under the guidance of their much loved faculty advisers and their very popular officers carried out plans for a picnic which many attended. They had a good time and it will not soon be forgotten. After the foot-ball season had ended they entertained the Foot Ball Squad at the Y. M. C. A. The squad and the many members of the faculty and the Freshmen Class enjoyed it very much. It was the general verdict that the team had been entertained in a most perfect manner. The spirit displayed by the Freshmen Class without doubt, Chal- lenges any organization in the school. They were good boosters of the "Tiger" even if they did only contribute 5362, in the campaign of the Annual. This small percentage is accounted for by the fact that there are so many Freshmen and that many have brothers and sisters who subscribed, Quite a mob of them was present at every athletic game, or High School event. Some were stars in athletics and in these events which speaks Well. They are supported by good cheer leaders and being enthusastic and of great volume make a big noise. This was proven when they captured the cheering cup at the inter-class mix- up. Under the supervision of Miss Lawson they organized the first Freshmen orchestra, a large Freshmen Chorus and a Freshmen Girl's Glee Club. The future of this Class promises to be still brighter than the past-and there are no complaints to be made concerning the past. The largest class in the history of the school will probably be the largest graduating class when they make their exit. Through the coming years they will do many things which will gain great notoriety for them. November 18, E, H. S. 27, Victory 6. November 19, Paul Barnard had a date. Page Seventy-two THE FRE SHMEN' S CREED I Believe I lend dignity and respect to the Elkins High School, the colors Orange -and Black, and everything like that and every-- thing. I Believe that if I were not so small, could stay out of the study hall, and would skip a few classes you would not know I am a Freshman g you might take me for a Junior, or something like that or something. A I Believe that being a Freshman I should study my lessons, as upperclassmen can then go thru on my momentum. November 20, Frank Dixon's lecture at the High School, I Believe my teachers are really interested in their work and not in their salaries, otherwise they would quit and do something to make some money. I Believe that Elkins High School has the highest average of beauty. I Believe I will go a long way in High School, with my stand- ing in the graded schools, tenth in my class fof elevenj and with my experience as secretary of the Amaturienn Literary Society.

Wilson, Jr. Although Elkins High School has been greatly handicapped in athletics because of the lack of a gymnasium and athletic field of its own for practice and for games, she has gradually forged to the front rank in West Virginia football, basketball and track during the past three years. At one time Elkins ruled supreme in basketball throughout the state due to a low level for a period of five years, when no regular ahletic coach was provided except various teachers and alumni who volunteered their services to try to keep the local. team from being disgraced by Belington, Par- sons, and other neighboring towns. Three years ago Elkins High School secured the services of Frank C, Wimer, former High School athlete and W. V. U. player, to direct and coach all ATHLETICS, Since that time Elkins High has won 27 football games and lost but 7. She has won 61 basketball games and lost 28. In two years of track she has won the sectional meet each time for this part of the State, which comprised 13 counties the first year. Her first year at the State Meet she won 6th place out of '72 schools, competing. Last year she tied for 3rd place out of a still larger number of teams represented and this Spring the prospects are bright for another good team. Heretofore the boys have been compelled to buy their own uniforms in foot- ball, but the Board of Education has fallen in line with most other schools in the State and has purchased uniforms to equip two full teams. Hon. J. T. Davis has built the finest athletic field in the State for the use of Davis and Elkins College and the Elkins High School. This "Splinter" stadium will seat two thousand people and will answer the Athletic needs of the two schools for several years to come. The only drawback now to prevent Elkins High having the best of everything in an athletic way is the fact that with an enrollment of 560 students. she does not have a semblance of a gymnasium for physical education and games. For this reason their is little or no systematic training in basketball until the pupils reach the High School and only the more apt can secure time for practice and this with the varsity squad at the Y. M. C. A. This will always be a handicap to the coach until the School builds a new gym of its own where the players can be started in with the system in use. The time is now at hand when Elkins must build a new High School Build- ing and it is imperative that this building-contain a modern GYMNASIUM. When this gym becomes available every boy and girl in the School system will'be given a course in corrective physical education which will give them a sound body to start out in life.

Page Seventy-six 1 r FOOTBALL Elkins High enjoyed one of the most successful seasons in the history of the School and probably had the most powerful offensive team she has ever produced, having rolled up a total of 417 points to her opponents 65. Elkins lost but three games, Weston winning thevonly game lost on the home lot in three years by the score of 13-7. Charleston defeated the locals 7-0 in a memorable struggle on Laidley field at Charleston. While Mannington humbled our team 33-12 in a game at Mannington. Fairmont, Grafton, Victory, Shinn- ston, Belington, Parsons and Philippi were victims of the local at- tack. A "Sleepy" Glenn was picked as Captain and half back of the All Star team for Spauldings official guide, while Captain Lutz Was chosen as tackle on the second team. Wallace and Florentino were given honorable mention. Glenn lead all players in number of touchdowns and goals after touchdown, with 49 and 65 respectively, which gives him a total of 359 points out of 417 for the team.

The team that year won 12 games and lost 1, but defeated every team of any note in the State, since that time Elkins has been able to win just a few more than half her games until the 1923 season, when she ,compiled the greatest record of any team in the State during the regular playing season when the calibre of op- ponents, games at home and abroad, and number' of games are con- sidered carefully. She won 17 straight and fell in her last regular game of theseason at Richwood, 29-26. After that the team was shot to pieces by sickness, yet it stayed until the semi-finals at the Fairmont tourney when she was eliminated by a team that she had scored 25 field goals to 9, on one month before. At the State Tourney Elkins made a game fight with Capt. Wallace, our ace coming from his sick bed to make a last stand for the old Orange and Black. The Elkins warriors made a desperate drive but finally succumbed to the powerful Bluefield team after leading by 8 points until the last iive minutes. This was really the Championship game as the Fairmont Times stated, because Bluefield was unable to defeat the little Follansbee team after such a battle as the Elkins team gave them. In the three games lost out of 27 starts just three points spell- ed defeat as the scores were 29-26, 24-21, and 21-18. Just one team scored more field goals in the 27 games than did Elkins and doubtedly had the best defensive team in the State. While she had but two men, fWallace and Glennb who scored on the offensive in each game Marshall Glenn was the greatest feeding passer in the State. Yet he was a dangerous shot if his team mates were covered. Elkins had the most dashing attack that she has ever produced and her system of play was to score twice as many field goals as her opponents, and not play a waiting game. The season record for 27 games shows that Elkins scored just 14 field goals per' game as against 7 by her opponents, her opponents averaged 6, fouls to Elkins 4. John Wallace will undoubtedly go down as the best forward in Elkins High cage history by virtue of his having scored more field goals than any other player CCol1ege or High Schoolj in W. Va. for two successive years. His record for 1922 was 149 while this sea- son he reached the unparrallelled total of 170 which gives him, an average of 7 per game. Mr. Stansbury failed to pick Wallace on his All State team, be- cause that team was picked at the Tourney when John was 28 pounds under weight from sickness. While the Youthful Marshall Glenn and Lutz were chosen on the second and third teams respectively, Wallace and "Sleeply" Glenn receiving honorable mention. While Elkins lost the Championship at Buckhannon her record stands to prove that she was unquestionable one of the two or three best teams in the State, that was East Side in the Fairmont tourney. ' Elkins used the five man defense to great advantage and un- The following players-were awarded letters, Captain Wallace, A. Glenn, M, Glenn, Lutz, Collett, Wamsley, Caplinger and Parsons.

Page Eighty-one Page Eigthy two GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM GIRLS ' BASKETBALL The Elkins High School Girls' Basket Ball Team completed their season March 27th with the D. and E. Girls. Although this team did not win many games this yearg due to the fact that this was the first year that most of these girls played basketball and also being handicapped by only having a practice period once or twice a week for an hour, it will have to be said that they played good bames and held the opponents down to small scores. All the teams that the girls played the High Schools had gymnasiums of their own and they practice every day. Their schedule this year was a very hard one but everywhere that the team played the guarding of Mary Elizabeth Poling, Maysie Osburn was very good. The pass work of Madeline Glenn and Marian Wilson as center and side center made the game fast and peppy, while the work of Margaret Glenn and Margaret Rietz as for- ward was hard to beat when they had the ball down at their end of the floor. Rachel Ashby, Caroline Brady, Lucritia White, Pearl Powers all played good games when they were called upon to sub- stitute. The co-operation of all the members was one of the strick- ing features of the team, most of the girls above mentioned win their basket ball letters and if they continue playing basket ball next year Elkins High School will have a team to be proud of.

The fury last- ed from the time the Freshmen and Sophomore girls took the floor at 7:00 until after Prof. A. J. Gibson presented the last trophy at 10:00. The best' game in the girls division was the final struggle be- tween the Freshmen and Juniors, with the Juniors carrying- off the honors. , All the boys were thrilling but undoubtedly the best perform- ance of the evening and one of the best comebacks ever witnessed on the local floor was the game rally of the Sophomore team against their opponents the Seniors.After trailing at half time by a score of 15-4 the Sophomores came back and brought the score up to 18-20 but were defeated 26-20 in a heartbreaking finish. The Seniors boys won the CHAMPIONSHIP of all boys teams Girls Anna Keplinger, CCD F-Junior Beulah Saffel, G-Senior Caroline Brady, F-Sophomore Theresa Thomas, G--Freshmen Nancy Unger, C-Junior and the large silver loving cup presented by the Class of '21 was awarded them. This makes the third successive year the SENIORS have won the Cup. The Faculty Cheering Cup was won by the Freshmen Class after the closest competition yet displayed in any T'ournament. Louise Underwood center on the Freshmen team won the ever- sharp Pencil which was given by the Sophomore Class to the player showing the best sportsmanship These prizes were presented at the end of the final game by Prof. A. J. Gibson who made a few remarks about the history of the event, Both girls' and boys' teams showed a marked improvement in their knowledge of the game and there was much better team work and more spirited play shown than in any previous tournament. It might be said that every year the tournaments are getting better. The following players were picked for the all tournament teanw.

Page Eighty-five Harry Mclntosh STATE TOU RN EY While Elkins High School failed to win the much coveted honor of being the State Basketball Champions at the Buckhannon Tourna- ment she did bring back the next highest honor when her loyal Root- ers Club was awarded the handsome loving cup which Dean Haught of Wesleyan College offered as a prize to the best High School Cheering Delegation in W. Va. This was the honor that Elkins had been striving for since 1914 when she Won the Firt Tournament, but every year it was Buckhannon, Weston, Fairmont, Grafton or Clarksburg who won the Cheering Cup. The excellent cheering that has been done by the students of E, H. S. this year' was responsible in no little measure for the fine success of our basketball team in its greatest year of basketball. One of the greatest reasons for our fine cheering success is our All-State cheer leader Harry McIntosh, familiary known as "Dizzy." This human cricket cut such didos and at the,same time lead his delegation with such a smoothness that Wesleyan College awarded him af solid gold megaphone for being the best cheer lead- er at the State Tournament. Harry is a Junior and will be with the High School for another year which will insure it of having good cheering to help athletics, Page Eighty sm December 5, Coach,Wimer ordered a new pair of shoes.

These are comprised of people taking Latin, French and Spanish. T'he Latin club is known as A. V. A. Only pupils who have gone as far as the third year of latin are admitted. This is the oldest club in high school and has a membership of about a hundred and fifty. The French and Spanish clubs are both active organizations of second year students. These clubs have severel picnics and other good times during the year. There are also some private clubs of merit in the school, among them the S. S.

V, A. was organized May 18, 1914. In 1921 the mem- bership had reached ninety-five and now exceeds one hundred and fifty. This shows how many students in E, H. S. have brains, nerve and courage. Sixteen new members were initiated on October 28, 1922. Three days before this fateful date each new member received a mysterious letter demanding three things, first, wear the inclosed purple and white ribbon until instructed otherwiseg second pay fifty-cents to Ac Ruble and last but not least come to City Park 'promptly at four- thirteen o'clock on the given date. Needless to say these instructions were carried out to a letter. All sixteen victims arrived promptly and waited impatiently for nearly two hours. The rest is a long sad story and it is enough to say that all survived and were able to con- sume bacon, buns, fried potatoes, pickles, cakes and apples in great quantities. November 8, 1923 a meeting was held to elect new officers. The following were elected: . Consul ,,,,,..,,,,,,...... ............ A c Ruble Proconsul ,.,,, ......

However on April 5, 1923 at 6:00 the members of the Club ,gathered in room 17 to enjoy a very delicious supper before the initiation. We had supper first as we thought that would be the .safest way to guard the Heats." Everyone ate as quickly as possible because being tortured by the thoughts of terrible things to come after, they wished to get them over at once. The results of the initiation were a few frightened people. After .all the folks had been found the party broke up, each declaring that he had had a very exciting and enjoyable time.

This club has early shown promise of becoming a factor in the affairs of the High School and h affairs that have been very successful, among them the presentation of a very novel chapel program and the moving picture presented at the Grand the 9th and 10th of February at the Grand. as put across several The officers for the season Lewis Vest .....,.....,.......

The meetings are held weekly and are devoted to the consider- ation of the business affairs of the club, and then the technical portion of the work is taken up, questions beinganswered and problems discussed. The club we believe has been of great bene- fit to the members and the time put in on the work of the club has been well spent. 1922-1923 were: President Vice President Secretary-Treasurer Q 1 -' V, jj? ffl,-1if,14'.Z.'Qf Q?-E 1 52 f ' rf ff ff' 'T6-'2:'1f1f5'j'2Ii:U 7 i X 1 . f f ' :lice -jx!:1' ' bv! 9' ., -.'i3'7Pff' 9 4 211 ' 2"T..i'2:,1' , A f if 9, ,, , Q .. , .

A.C In the fall of 1922, just when the leaves were beginning to turn brown, four girls journeyed out to Harte's Grove in an "ole tin lizzie." Sitting around the V log fire frying hamburgers and onions, 'these girls decided it-would ,be a good idea ', to select others and organize a club: It was accomplished. Lillian Poling, Anna Ruth Keplinger, Virginia Bright and Mary Wees were the four girls. Beulah Saffel and Mariam Wilson were asked to join. A name was decided upon and one good rule followed. They should always knickers on the outings. The Club's next duty was to choose a jolly sponser. Miss Minerva Lawson was given this responsibility. At the same time Evelyn Barnes was admitted into the club. This club in the future hopes to enjoy as good times! as it has in the past. One for all and all for one. Y ' i ,Mary Wees '24.

Club came together two by two's, a few years before we entered high school. During the past four years we have been constant friends. The idea of having a club was brewing several months before We organized. We had no trouble in selecting our advisor, Mrs, McKee who had really been a good friend to us since she came to Elkins. Our ideals are high we mean to look to the higher things of life. We have all tried to help keep and enforce the laws of the school. We mean to improve the moral character. Besides these, we are out for a good, time. During the fall we had roasts, hikes and picnics. The main feature of the Spring was the party at Leona Price's the Club dressed as boys and each took their girls and every one had plenty of eats and a good time.

Lawson the Music Depart- ment, made up of the Boy's and Girl's Glee Clubs, the Freshmen Glee Club, Chorus and Orchestra, and our school orchestra, has begun to play an important part in High School life. The Glee Clubs and the Orchestra have become very popular with townsfolk, as well as students, and while the Freshman organizations have appeared very few times, they have displayed remarkable musical ability. On April 20, a delightful three-act musical comedy, "College-Days" was staged by this department. This proved a great success and showed the musicaltalent which may be found in Elkins High School. R.

Page One Hundred Eleven A BUSINESS PROPOSITION By Reba Kennedy. Crash! The bridge that had spanned the ravine for forty years went through with a great rending of timbers, and, oh! the ignominy of it, the straw that broke the camels back was a ford. Close behind followed a crimson roadster. It came to a sud- den halt a few feet from the bridge and a girl sprang out. She ran to the edge of the ravine and peered down into the sun dappled ravine. She made a pretty picture as she stood poised there. She wore a brown suit and a snug brown turban. The sun shining through her brown hair, as it peeped from beneath the brim of her hat, made it appear golden, and her violet eyes were filled with terror, She soon saw that she wouldn't be able to help whoever had been in the car herself, so she sprang into the roadster and making a de- tour drove rapidly away. As that part of the country was practically deserted it was al- most an hour before she returned with a doctor and some other men. . She darted down into the ravine ahead of the rest and bent over the man who had been the sole occupant of the car. He was delerious and was muttering to himself: "I must get there, I must, I must." And then again: HI must get to Glendale. R.

He said twelve and he meant twelve." The girl looked startled and then glanced at her watch. It was fifteen minutes until twelve and no one could reach Glendale, which was twenty-five miles away in that time. "Rebecca, oh Rebecca." "Yes, mother." "Is your name Rebecca?" Queried a voice from the bed. The girl at the window turned swiftly. "Why are you conscious?" She asked in surprise. It was a week later and the man lay in one of the bedrooms of the house in which the girl lived in Glendale. It was the first time that he had been entirely conscious and had noticed his sur- roundings. The girl was in blue now, a blue that emphasized the shade of her eyes. As she stood with her back to the window the sunlight shining through her hair made it seem a cascade of gleaming gold. "Yes" she said, answering her last question, "I've been lying here looking at you and feeling unreasonably happy for five whole minutes, but it seems to me that something ought to be troubling me, Oh! I remember. I didn't get the money there on time" and he sighed heavily. The girl crossed over to the side of the bed and sat down. "Tell me all about it" she commanded. "You've been mutter- ing and muttering till I'm fairly dieing of curiosity." "Well" he began "dad always wanted me to be a business man. He started me out several times, but I always managed to make a muddle of whatever I got into and to lose all the money. At last he got disgusted and told me I would have to make my WHY on my own hook. I got interested in an investment which an R. P. Robinsin of Glendale was handling. It was a perfectly safe and sound invest- ment, rather exclusive. We did all our business through our attorneys until it came time to hand over the money. He said I would have to give that to him in person, You don't know what a shark for promptness that man is. If you are half a minute late he won't have anything to do with you. Well, I had managed to borrow the necessary money and had just given myself time to get there when that dashed accident hap- pened." He gave a groan and turned over. A moment later he turned back. "Well, I'Ve talked long enough about myself" he said trying to assume a cheerful air "Now tell me about you." She glanced out of the window and then began. "I guess my father was just the opposite to yours" she said smiling. "I always wanted to go into business, it always held the greatest appeal for me. Father, however, objected strenuously. He said that no daughter of his should ever ,enter thebusiness world. All my friends took the same view of the matter. I finally won out, though, and father gave me enough capital to start on. My business was a success from the beginning. I had learned my lesson, however. I decided that I would be very exclusive, and let as few people know as possible that I am a woman and not a man, for people seem to doubt a woman's capabilities in the business world. For that reason I do most of my business through an attorney and go by the initials and last name, which are" she finished demurely "R, P. Robinson." February 4, Sunday.

While a speaker' is talking one should always converse with his neighbor so as to let the speaker know that he is by no means monopolizing the whole conversation, 3. Always be well informed and be able to enter all topics of con- versation. When chang'ing classes if a group is seen talking in the middle of the hall, always join the group and give your opinion on the subject being discussed. 4. When study hall becomes quiet and it becomes necessary to trip a fellow student, to break the monotony, always explain to the student when he gets up fif he is ablej that you were merely do- ing it to amuse the other students in the study hall. 5. It is a bad form to even let the teacher have the last word in an argument. Even if the whole hour period must be sacrificed, keep argueing! February 11, Sunday. February 12, Lincoln's Birthday. 6. In assembly when Mr, Gibson announces a period cut off, al- ways show your approval or disapproval by clapping the hands, stamp- ing the feet, hollowing, or whistling. 7. "Buy in your own home town" fswipe alsojh and a good time to do this is while changing classes between buildings. Stop in all the stores along the way and encourage the salesman by look- ing and hooking over his goods when his back is turned. 8. One should never become sleepy or drowsy in classes.. If one does become so, he should politely excuse himself to get a drink and go up street to one of the popular drinking fountains. The fresh air obtained while on the Way will relieve drowsiness, 9. If couples are not disturbed by people studying all dates should be held in study hall, the auditorium, or back stair ways be- tween three o'clock to six. 10. Never dodge a hurled book, or resist being knocked down, shaken, slapped, or a kick inflicted by the faculty because great dis- appointment is felt if they chance to miss their mark. February 13, The Seniors are acting very mysteriously, and we wonder! February 14, Valentine's Day. February 15, "Bus" just found out that school takes up at 8:40.

Page One Hundred Twenty Five A PLEA TO- THE S The Seniors, through the "Tiger", wish to make a plea to the students of our beloved High School for better, and cleaner literature. We want to pass on to them, one high ideal, and ask those who follow us to strive to their utmost powers to redress a wrong and in a small measure benefit mankind. Let us demand clean books, and abolish all cheap novels containing low morals and undesirable suggestions! From the hour' of the invention of printing, books, not kings have ruled the world. Books have within them, power to make peo- ple happy or to smother their peace with corruption. ln the world of books we can select companions from among the most richly gift- ed of the sons of God, or we can choose the corrupted, degenerated characters as our companions. When we remember that all actions were at one time thoughts, then, if we are to advance and always to become better, our minds must be of the cleanest and most wholesome. Most of our thoughts are gathered from the conversation of our associates, or from books we read. Since these thoughts determine our peace of mind both in religion and intellect, and mould our character, should they not be of the purest? So many of our fresh and active young people are watsing their talents, degrading their mind and debasing their morals by UDENTS OF E. H. S. reading the sensational novels that are so freely circulated at the present day. If we are to stop their circulation we must stop reading them and demand better literature. We know that as long as there is a demand for such corrupt and injurious reading mat- ter, it will be published by unscrupulous money-getters, Education forms the common mind and high characters are drawn from high thoughts. "The ideal life is in our blood and never will be still, we feel the thing we ought to be, beating beneath the thing we are." Let us then read only the literature that will help us to keep constantly in mind, these ideals, instead of smother- ing them by arousing base passions and corrupting our morals. If we once gain the habit of reading only good, clean books, then, when all else fails, when the world of forms and shows ap- pears a two-edged lie, which seems., but is notg when all our earth- clinging hopes melt into nothingness, we are still not without friends. Books are lighthouses built on the seas of time! Well might Milton exclaim, "Who kills man kills a reasoning creature-God's image, but who destroys a good book kills reason itself. Let us then be true to our trust, bend the knee only to the great and good, honor only the honorable, carry high the best stan- dards, and make our country cleaner and better.

EIGHT MONTHS OLD In despair, he grasped the flask, and with eyes wide staring as the craving everpowered him, made two or three futile efforts to raise it to his quivering lips. His failure brought a cry of anguish which gripped my very heart and a look of bitter disappointment spread over his features. In an unstable moment, a few drops of the precious fluid were spilled. He uttered a half hysterical cry of dismay and stag- gered back. Again he attempted to raise the flask and this time his shaking hands carried it to his mouth. The degen- erate shown upon his eyes as the liquid stimulated him and his lips parted in a smile. After a long swig he bit ferociously at his rattle, murmered, "Da, Da," and fell back in his crib.

There was a man in our town who tho't it wonderous wise, especially when 'our ad man' called to see if he would adver- tise. He simply wouldn't interview on whatrwe had to say, he only answered "Blooey, Boy, this is my busy day." Of course this was his privilege, no malice here we feel. We only claim he had a right to let us spin our speil. Then should we not convince him or make him see our point, I reckon then there'd still be time to cast us from his 'joint.' When you see a man so all-fired hasty with what he has to do, you can mark down, "There is a man who doesn't fit the shoe." We know of lots of business he'd probably got that day but because he was so "busy" the trade went another way. 'Our ad man' has influence which he uses you can bet, we think you'1l see a moral here it's well not to forget. So, always listen and be kindly to the callers you receive, for you never know exactly what a guy has up his sleeve. Globe Trotter. May 27. Graduation Sermon.

It is his mode of telling the world of that particular mental state known as happiness. WHEN baby laughs, when the sunshines or the rain falls, when the flowers blooms, when dinner sends out its inviting aroma-when any one of a thousand other things happen which attract your attention-you are being advertised to. THE whole purpose of any advertisement is to recite your curiosity, gain your interest, arouse your desire 5 to tell you something you don't knowg to remind you of some- thing you have forgotteng to convince you of something over which you have been hesitatingg to help you get the best at least cost. IN short, the purpose of an advertisement is, to make you hap- pier. Read the ads in this TIGER and see if that isn't so.
