They seemed to have no responsibility, and often laughed at the Sophomores for grumbling at having so much work to do. Most of them liked Athletics and Dramatic work and took more part in High School activities than most Freshmen. They passed out of their Freshmen year with a great deal of “greenness” rubbed off. They entered the Sophomore class in a body of eight, but a boy from Mississippi wandered in. They felt quite proud of themselves in having five members on the football team. Five members of the class were members of the basket ball teams, three boys being “Subs;” one girl and one boy on first teams. They also found that they had a poet among them. They took some of the most important parts in the Senior play. As wise Sopho- mores they tried to teach the Freshmen how to act in High School, but finally gave it up. As they passed into the Junior year they lost two of the original nine, but a boy from Cape Girardeau and a girl from Steele joined them. As Juniors, they tried to live up to their motto Impossible is Un- American.” Again they played the most important part in Athletics and Dramatic work. Six were admitted as Seniors of 1018. A boy from Portageville joined them. They look upon the frivolous Juniors and wonder if they can ever become dignified Seniors. They also try to teach the Sophomores to be economical. There are only four members graduat- ing and they call themselves the war class, as three of their class are in the service of their country. They feel quite proud of the fact that they come first in having the most names on the service flag of the High School. The Class of 1018 will leave this coming May never to meet as a class again. This thought brings a feeling of sadness but looking into the future this thought will no doubt be changed to one of gladness when the brilliant achievements of the class are noted. ■ • J U ■; PROPHECY OF THE CLASS OF 1918 Many years have passed by since five merry, but industrious Sen- iors went out from the walls of the Hayti High School never to return. At this time 1 was only a Junior, but they being friends of mine 1 was deeply interested in them. The same year that they graduated, my par- ents moved to Meridian, Mississippi. Shortly after our arrival at this place I was stricken by a ter- rible malady, yellow fever, which is dreaded the world over. I was sick for a period of some four months, and after 1 recuperated. I neg- lected writing to any of my Senior friends. From that day until the present date. May 13th. 1938, I have never heard of any of the class ot 1918. On the morning of the 15th of May, 1938, I arrived in San Fran- cisco. bent upon some business affairs for my employer. As 1 was crossing 14(i Balboa Avenue, I was run down by a car. When I came to, I found myself in a large and spacious hos- pital, overlooking the Pacific ocean. I found that 1 could scarcely move so had to content myself by lying as still as possible: although I knew my business transactions were very urgent. A few minutes later I was aroused from a stupor, by an exclamation from some one near by. Upon opening my eyes I beheld a stalwart doctor who to my surprise proved to be Xat T. Buckley, the Hayti High School graduate of '18. After shaking hands with me, he examined my wounds and found that I was in a serious condition. My left arm was broken, and 1 was bruised about the head and body. After my needs had been attended to. Dr. Buckley, who by the way, was the head surgeon of this hospital, the Vandiver Sanitarium, I began to make inquiries concerning the rest of the Senior class. Nat told me that Ellis Kohn entered Missouri U. and completed a course in Civil Engineering. While at the University, he made an enviable record in Athletics. At the present time, he is situated in Rio de Janeiro, at the head of a party of Civil Engineers. It may be inter- esting to know that he is a bachelor. George Sigler took a course in Journalism at the University of Illinois. He was always fond of journalism, and decided to become an editor, after aiding greatly in making the third edition of the “Pern- • V •- ' -i ' •: •? •♦‘•.J.%� ■«;- _ ■-••■ •• ■•• J- • • • • 1 P -f ttl iiC A' t I iscovian” such a success. He now the editor of the Hayti Herald, a paper that has become one of the best in the South, under the careful supervision of Mr. Sigler. Hattie Mae Argo entered Lindenwood College at St. Charles, Mo., but soon quit school to become a movie star. She has made quite a success and at present has a contract with the Universal Company at University City, Cal. She will soon appear in “A Lass of the West.” After a period of two weeks I was able to get around again. I bade Nat a fond good-bye and went on my way rejoicing that I had heard so many good things concerning the class of ’18. JgiiSL - iv ' ) ll — SENIOR CLASS POEM We, a merry Senior Class, Our number being four, Have finished our course, have left Hayti High To remain away forevermore. We rejoiced at our commencement. Graduation we did greet; Now a broad field spreads before us. And life’s true grandeur we shall meet. We have worked, we have labored, Twelve happy years we spent in school; Great ability and true mentality. Make ambitious men to rule. Rut to no monarch do we refer, We desire no royalty; Only greatness among our brethren Is our joyous melody. Qualis non Quantus, Are things of value to be made, By disability in education. Important functions may be delayed. Bad results may then be realized Momentous ends may then come true; Ah, sad fate, ye must be conquered Unless man thy lot shall rule! Camouflage in war is useful. In many things it stands the test; But in life we must be truthful, For to win requires the best. Now with all men who shall meet us Who in life know what to do; And to our former fellow students We give to you our last adieu. We, the class of ’18, having reached the end of our career here, being sound mentally and physically, do make, publish and declare this writing to be our last will and testament, hereby making all prev- ious writing null and void. We do hereby direct that our funeral services shall be con- ducted by the faculty and our fellow-students as they shall see fit. As to our vast estate, we have decided to dispose of it as follow's, viz: Item: We give and bequeath to the school as a whole, all of our tardies and bad reports held by the faculty. Item: We give and bequeath to Miss Hill all of the chewing gum which is to be found in great quantities on the many desks of the study hall. Item: We give and bequeath our love and respect to our es- teemed Supt., Mr. Johnson. Item: We give and bequeath our scrap paper, etc., to Miss Lambert. Item: We give and bequeath to the Juniors all our dignity, also our Senior privileges, sincerely hoping that they will be as haughty and dignified as we formerly seemed to them. Item: We give and bequeath to the “Fresh” Freshies a twig of “Forget-me-not,” so that we shall long linger in their memory. Item: I. Ellis Kohn, bequeath to Carrie Sigler the responsibility of editing the next edition of the “Pemiscovian.” Item: I, George Sigler, bequeath Riley’s Poems to Warren Ray. Item: I. Hattie Mae Argo, bequeath to Bertha Thomas, my giggle and popularity with the faculty. Item: I, Nat Buckley, bequeath my refinement to Lottie O on, and my candy to Stella Dorris. We hereby designate and appoint the High School Rats,” sole executors of this our last will and testament. In witness whereof, we. the class of ’18, the testators, have to this will set our hand and seal, this the 10th day of May, A. D., 1918. ELLIS KOHN, GEORGE W. SIGLER, HATTIE MAE ARGO, NAT T.

A DAY WITH THE JUNIORS The morning after the “Bunking' Party at Stella’s, we arose at 5:30, went to the woods and had a sun-rise breakfast. Coming home a jitney passed us which gave us an idea for the pleasure of the day. Then we decided to play “hooky.” We went to Spencer’s store and bought such things as cheese, ham, cakes, coca-cola, etc., all of which had to be charged as the Juniors are always broke. When we came out of the store there stood a jitney, with the owner not in sight, so in we hopped and away we went. here were we bound for? Chute Sixteen, of course. On this side of Caruthers- viile, we saw a band of gypsies and stopped to learn our future. As usual, we were all going to be rich, happy and boss of the pocket book. Then we started again for the Chute. When we arrived there the first horrible thought that struck us was that we had forgotten our bathing suits, but such things as that never daunt the Juniors, so in we went, and speaking of “time,” we had it in the water. By the time we were ready to come out it was lunch time. We had forgotten a tablecloth, so we ate on the grass. And then for some pictures, and pictures they certainly were. After that we went for a walk. As we were passing a field, we saw some good looking watermelons. The Juniors never resisting a temptation, went over the fence. Each grabbed a melon and ran to the car. When we reached the car we threw them on the ground, and, oh, they were “citrons.” After the citron scrape we started home. On the other side of Stubbtown we had a “blow-out,” and were about to give up hope, when we saw a glimmer of a light. We followed and at last we came to it; it was the home of Lottie’s aunt. They were giving a dance and we1 were invited in. We square-danced until the world looked square; cider and apples rounded out the evening. Lottie's uncle brought us to town in a large wagon and greeted a happy but tired bunch. As it was so late, we all piled into Carrie s house and each grabbed a rug for a bed. In the morning, you should have seen our faces when we receiv- ed the bill for the damages done to the jitney bus. “Amen,” “So be it.” V - - _ ;r. Is vi-Vi - . v .. HOUSTON B. BUCKLEY The above is one of the three boys who entered High School with us in ID 13-14. The other two, Carl Sigler and Floyd Bissett left us during the Freshmen year. Houston stayed with us until April, 1917, when he heeded our country's call and enlisted in Uncle Sam’s army and is now “over there.” While he is sadly missed by each of us, we feel proud of him and expect to hear that he has honors for himself, his country and his class in Hayti High School. £tr i� yv -- CLASS POEM Jolly seven. Juniors fair. Enjoying the summer air. Every morn and every night Their soiicitious delight. Sleeping, walking, still at ease, Pleasing, without skill to please; Simple maiden, void of art. Babbling out the very heart. Yet abandoned to our will, Yet imagining no ill, Yet too innocent to blush. This in time, will be forgot; Other pleasures, other cares, Every-busy time prepares: And then shall in thy future see. This picture, once, remember thee. ! ftf f� f-b y-r Vattivitai ijr._. i U TK� r'iKS D ff: frrjJuaiei, ti V . . - _ • . ■ 'r ivjJG ' c Bk. - I 'Stnu.ii ;tl— SOPHOMORE CLASS .... Class Officers ....

School Hank THE BENEFITS OF AN EDUCATION We, the Sophomore Class, do know That an efficient life does tell Results of things we did in school. Results of things we did so well We have worked in life’s hard way, Always hoping for the best. Not until our hope be realized Will be stop when put to test. This world of glory is now beaming With opportunities for a learned man; A few more years will find us working. Working in life’s broad golden strand. Though we have some foes to conquer, Though we have some tasks to do; Earnestly, willingly, and victoriously Will we these things subdue. We have goals and great ambitions. We must reach these heights subline. We are working, we are learning, We shall reach these goals in time. Yet some people may look down on us. And no good in us they see; Proof alone can then convince them We are great as we are free. Now let us, then, be up and doing, Time is precious and will much avail; Let us keep those great wheels turning. And prove that the sophomores never fail. • j r% AMERICAN PATRIOTISM. The United States is n )w involved in the horrors of a universal war. Because of its great policy of upholding human rights, America is espousing the cause of the Allies by fighting the Central Powers. Never before has the honor ;.nd glory of our country been assailed by such monarchial despotism as has been done by those war craving Hohenzollerins. Three times before this, American strength and patriotism has been tested and found inseparable. Welded together strong as a steel chain is the love of its citizens to this country in which all men have freedom. We are loyal to t le extent of life sacrifice to maintain that venerable emblem of liberty over this great republic of the western hemisphere. Autocracy wi:i never reign over America. Ah. imagine ourselves submitted to Xai :rism, working at the command of an im- perialistic mon.acl . obeying the orders of a cruel German despot. Will the United States ever do this? No, never. So long as the glory of man exists upon this continent, . tail America be free. When we reflect bach upon the former strength and valor of our t'athe .-. we and L we ' laved in the war of Independence, the war of 1812. and the war of 1893. In !77 i-at great ■ vuggle for our freedom began and was won in 1781. In 1812, we fought to maintain that blessing, and in 1898, we. in a war with Spain, upheld the just cause of humanity. Now we are fighting f :r t e s .me purpose. Already have our soldiers given the Imperialists an example of their strength and courage. Already have they shown t ern that t c have a country which upholds Democracy. American- r.-e, rr. . by just cause, should be, proud of their count:;.-. A nation . r ; with such advantages and upholding prin- c:p es that u.e accept .b.e y all intelligent people, has due cause to be great and loved by tree patriots. Go back to the battle of Bunker Hill and c .ns.de. ere ; at . .. m displayed there. Ah, Prescott, the first greu. m :: r ; t o re.i ution, pouring out his generous blood like water for Fteedom before he knew whether it would avail anything or not. Jo. n Paul Jones, _n his great naval battle upheld our colors and won one of the greatest naval battles of the Revolution. Nutue.o.. • msran os of similar bravery inspire us and urge our people to con.en.. .or ... ;dom and Justice. Our country is young, yet great. In its great popu.ution of one hundred and two million inhabi- tants, are there none w..o are as brave and loyal as Prescott, Putnam and Jones? Yes. every true American is a patriot. In this war, have we not seen our friends and relatives leave their homes of comfort and happiness to fight for the nation’s cause? Do they not willingly salute “Old Glory” and remove their hats to that venerable banner? Are Americans failing to protect their homes? No. They are proving their sincere loyalty by sacrificing their lives upon the altar freedom that t.ris nation—their venerable home of grandeur may exist in its glory forever. —:ut— FRESHMEN CLASS Mayme Hudgens Nellie Schmidt Oda Fulhvood CLASS OFFICERS Cora Mae Meatte------------------------------Treasurer.

THE SCHOOL SAVINGS BANK In October, 1913, the students of the High School organized a savings bank and called it the Hayti School Savings Bank. Its purpose was to teach the lesson of economy to the children and to give the High School students some experience in banking. Banking hours are nine to ten o’clock. Any amount can be deposited from one cent up. At the close of the day the money is deposited by the cashier in the Bank of Hayti. This savings plan has proved to be an entire success. The officers for this year were as follows: � ELLIS KOHN President GEORGE W. SIGLER Vice- President BEULAH DOWDY.

Question: Why is a .-lacker like a lemon meringue pie? An- swer: Because he’s yellow all the way through and hasn’t crust enough to go over the top. I have a habit of talking in a slow, drawl manner. What can I do to improve mv talk? V. R. We refer this case to Steila Dorris. She is able to give you complete instructions in fast talking. I have great trouble with my girls. One of them is angry with me because I took the other out car riding. What can I do to ap- pease her? X. B. Pay more attention to your studies and not so much to the girls. They'll come out alright. I am very slender, gest something for me. I eat lots but can't get fat. Please sug- G. M. You probably study too much, but we thing it is more likely that you “run” after the girls so much that you run all the fat of!’. I have a very serious question to ask you. I have rather hard luck in trying to find a girl. I try to please them and always dress in a neat manner. Please give a few good suggestions. H. C. There is only one suggestion and that is a good remedy: Do not “put on” so much. Act natural and the girls will like you much better. September 28, the Juniors entertained at the home of Carrie Sigler This was the first social of the year and therefore was enjoyed by all. There were games and music; and refreshments, sand- wiches and salad. September 19, the Juniors, Seniors and the teachers gave a social at the home of Walter Dorris in honor of Harry Gettings, a post- graduate. who had been called to the colors. This was a surpr.se party, being gotten up hurriedly in the afternoon. The time was spent in conversation and listening to music. Refreshments were served, consisting of sandwiches, cookies and punch. As Mr. Brooks, one of the Grammar School teachers, was soon to leave for Camp Funston, the teachers, High School and his pupils decided to give him a farewell party at the school building. Games of the most hilarious nature were played, as everyone wanted to appear as jolly as possible in order to give “Bailey’ a cheertui send-off. Mr. Johnson did the honors of the occasion by presenting Mr. Brooks with a vest-pocket kodak from the Seventh grade: a khaki roll from the Eighth grade; a wrist watch from the High School and the teachers. The “eats” were as usual, chocolate and wafers. Our annual Halloween social was given in the school building and nearly everyone came masked as was requested; the favorite cos- tume being that of a ghost. Prizes were awarded to the best masked boy or girl. Everyone prepared their own refreshments as there were nothing more than toasted marshmallows and more and more of them. November 10, a social was given at the High School by the Sophomores. Games were played and refreshments consisting of fruit salad, lemonade and cake were served.

April 22, the High School Faculty entertained the Seniors and the Grade Faculty at the school building, in honor of the Seniors of ’18. The time was spent in playing games and making toasts. Refreshments were ice cream and cake. • k. , Ii 4 V' i i. A LITTLE BIT OF HUMOR. COURTSHIP IX 1910. He was smiling’ for that well known moment in which he could spring the final word. At last it came. “Edna,” he harmonized, “I want you to become my wife. I do not eat meat but once a week, and then only for exercise.

Although we failed to get further than our first debate we made the beginning that is necessary and essential to suc- cessful achievements. On the evening of the 27th of December, the High School had its preliminary debate in which three competed for the team, Felix N. LeSieur, Harry W. Curtner and Nat T. Buckley. The first named winning the captainship and the third named winning as as- sociate debater. But for some tranquil cause Nat Buckley resigned his place and Hattie Mae Argo was chosen as his successor. Then with this team, Hayti debated the Caruthersville team at Hayti on the 17th of January, on the state question, “Resolved that a Federal law providing for compulsory arbitration between employers and employees is wise and feasible.” Although we lost this debate we have the benefit derived from it. Our High School will be represented at Cape Girardeau, May 10th, by Felix N. LeSieur, who will endeavor to win honors for his school. The question is not announced until two hours before the de- bate but the general subject for discussion is sent to all contestants, which is “Foreign relations of the United States after the war.” As we have been successful in many things we hope to be such in debating which is an important factor in developing the ability of a statesman. nool first s u c— ■a::i. oam that vers bate May his • (fe- ints.

THE DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club was organized Sept. 15, 1917, for the pur- pose of promoting literary activities in the High School. Each year the officers of the Club are elected from the Senior Class. The charter members are the Seniors and those who had taken part in plays in previous times. All members of the High School are eligible to join if they perform certain requirements. This organization has proven very valuable in conducting the daily programs which consist of songs, recitations, readings, and so forth. The programs are arranged by a committee of the Club for every day except Thursday, and on that day chapel exercises are con- ducted by the High School faculty. It also has charge of all the plays that are given by the High School, and through the Club’s efforts many stage talents have been revealed. All the special programs during the year have been arranged and carried out by the Club. All the members will readily agree that this organization has been a mutual benefit to everyone; and mostly through the efforts and guidance of the Class of ’18 has it proven to be a success. It is ex- cepted and urgently hoped that this Club shall never be suspended and that, as long as old Hayti High is in existence, it shall grow and continue it’s good work.

Ned Lilake, from the city, is spending his vacation here ami has been captivateed with the cheerfulness and artless simplicity ot a young gii'l. Nan. supposed to he the granddaughter ot Ichabod Buzzer, the old lighthouse keeper. Nan has grown up in her rough surroundings as a wild flower, beautiful and innocent, with no knowledge ot the great world that lies over the mo; ntains. Ned lilake h.. taught her to read and succeeds in winning her giriish heart. A party of Ned's friends i-ini� to visit him and stay several .‘ays at the lighthouse. In the party is Mr. John Enlow, ..hose baby girl had been abducted many years before by Injun Jim, th. son-in-1 ..v of Ichabod Birv.er. Jim's wile Liza Buzzer, returns the baby to Eniow after Jim had been sent to the penitentiary but instead of returning the rightful heiress, she substitutes her own child and Lighthouse Nan proves to be John Enlow’s daughter. Injun Jim meets Hortense Enlow, who is really his own daughter, and teils her the secret of her birth. She bribes him to obtain the proof ot his story from old Moil Buzzer, Ichabod’s wife. He attempts to steal these papers at night but is frustrated by Nan who rings the alarm bell and awakens the household. John Enlow has taken a fancy to Nan, knowing that she is his real daughter and offers to send her away for two years to a boarding school. On Christmas day Nan comes home on a vacation. Ned Blake, still in love with Nan, had become suspicious of Hortense, who shows an unexplainable interest in Injun Jim, her real father, who has been sent to the peni- tentiary. Ned suspecting the truth, sends for Ichabod and Moll Buzzer in an effort to clear up the mystery, Nan's birth. In the meantime Hortense has married an English baronet, and when the truth is known that she is really the child of Injun Jim and Liza Buzzer, .John Enlow kindly conceals from her husband and they depart to begin life anew in the old world. Enlow teils the world that Nan is his adopted daugh- ter and heiress. ---CAST OF CHARACTERS_______ Hon. John Enlow.

Caruthers- ville dropped out of the league, which without a doubt, saved them from two stinging defeats at the hands of their old rivals. The past season was the best in the history of Hayti High School, thanks to the efficient coaching of Mr. B. F. Brooks and Dr. L. H. Bran- non. We as players, and students, wish to extend our heartfelt thanks to Dr. Brannon, who sacrificed a great deal of his time in order to make us a winning team. May the football fame of Hayti live forever. — V' -. - - 1 FOOTBALL REVIEW, 1917. When school opened the first week in September, Hayti had the best prospects for a football team she had ever had. Several of the old letter men returned to school and with the addition of some new students, we were able to get seventeen men out to fight for places on the team. Under B. F. Brooks, our efficient coach, the team began to get in excellent condition. After four weeks of hard practice the first game of the season was played at Kennett on October fifth. When we arrived in Kennett, at 1 : 0 p.m., we were immediately ushered to the High School Field, where we went through short signal drill before the game. Kennett had practically the same team that had whipped Hayti the previous year, and were over confident. The game opened up with Hayti receiving the kick-otf on their twenty- yard line and advancing twenty yards farther down the field. With the ball in our possession, we opened up with a series of line plungers, which soon put us over for a touch-down, within five minutes of the end of the first quarter. The quarter ended with Hayti 6, Kennett 0. The rest of the game was a continual sea-saw up and down the field, with Hayti having the edge; as our back-field tore their line to shreds with brilliant line plunging. Kennett has played football for the past three years, and Hayti has the honor of being the only team to defeat Kennett on their own gridiron. Kennett did not take her defeat with very good grace, in fact, some of the spectators insisted upon being discourteous enough to come out on the field and abuse the players. KENNETT AT HAYTI OCTOBER, 1915. When Kennett called for a return game we were not in very good condition; that our coach, Mr. Brooks, had been called to the colors shortly after the first game with Kennett. We were fortunate however in securing the valuable assistance of Dr. L. H. Brannon, a couple of days before the game. Under his tutelage the gloom which had been cast over the entire team by the loss of Mr. Brooks was cast off and a new spirit taken on. When the whistle blew Hayti took the field confident of another victory. Moore made a beautiful kick-off for Hayti, booting the pig-skin to Kennett’s ten yard line. Kennett’s full back was only able to advance the ball fifteen yards before being downed by Hamilton, our left guard. Kennett was unable to make the necessary ten yards in four downs and Hayti received the ball on Kennett’s twenty-five yard line. Harper, our quarter-back, gained ten yards on an end-run. On two line plunges Reeves carried the ball over for the first touch-down. Moore kicked goal. Captain Harper re- ceived the kick off from Kennett on her twenty-yard line, and advanced it to the middle of the field. The back-field smashed Kennett’s line to pieces. Hayti had the ball on Kennett’s ten yard line, with but one minute to play. Kohn, our left-half, carried the ball across with one plunge. The quarter ended, Hayti 13, Kennett 0. Kennett tightened down and played some real football during the remainder of the game, making a touch-down in both the second and third quarters. This tied the score. Then things began to happen. After being held on our forty-yard line Reeves punted for forty yards. Hamilton, the fleet Hayti guard, went down the field and fell on the ball. After a series of line plunges Reaves went over for another touch-down. Final score, Hayti 19, Kennett 13. T .id '. i� t i V ! • I '1 HAYTI AT MALDEN NOVEMBER 17TH. Upon arriving at Malden, we were somewhat “scared up” when we caught a glance of their husky warriors. This game proved to be the most hotly contested of the season. For the first three quarters, Malden had a slight advantage; but Havii took on new life in rhe last quarter. The tripple pass worked by haif-nacks, Kohn and Dorris, and full-back Reaves baffled Malden. Reaves carried the ball from ten to twenty yards on every run. Spain finally received a short for- ward pass on Malden’s four-yard line. Dorris bucked across their line for the only touch-down of the game. The game ended with Hayti G, Malden 0. MALDEN AT HAYTI NOVEMBER 23RD. Malden received the kick-off on their ten yard line, and ad- vanced it with the ball down the field for twenty-five yards. Next a beautiful forward-pass was completed, and things began to look bad for Hayti. We finally succeeded in holding them for downs and they punted. Captain Harper receiving the punt, and advancing it to the middle of the field. Harper and Kohn began to make some snappy end runs. Kohn was knocked out in the fourth down. Right-end, Moore, replaced him, Baldwin taking Moore’s place. At the end of the first half, Malden had us backed up to our one yard. The line held like a stone wall for three downs. The whistle blew. Our touch-down came through the brilliant playing of Harper and Dorris; Harper mak- ing thirty-five yards through a broken field. Dorris then carried the ball for a sweeping end-run,. ancL went across the line for the only touch-down of the game; and Malden was beaten for a second time. The game ended Hayti 6, Malden 0. : v OUR BOOLA SONG Away down south in Missouri Where the branches are waving to and iro There is a school of Hayti Where the pretty girls and athelets grow. We have the best of football teams, For we always win it seems. We laugh and sing the season through, Boola Boo, Boola Ula, Boola Boo, Boola Bula, Boola Bula, Boola Bula, Boola Bula, Boola Bula, Boola Bula, Whan we meet those other fellows, We will sing our Boola song.

BASKET BALL At the end of a victorious football season, Hayti was jubilent over the more brilliant prospects for a basket ball team. However, we were doomed to disappointment as we were unable to secure a suitable court. The East Arkansas Lumber Company treated us very court- eously, giving us permission to use the hallway to the lumber shed, which was accepted. After playing one game with the alumni, we decided that it was too dangerous to play in the hallway; the lumber • affording many opportunities for injuries. The game between the Alumni and the High School resulted: H. H. S. (18) Argo (4)-------------------------L. F._ Kohn (2)_________________________R.

Although we have ample material, only one man is turning out for practice. Buckley and Kohn are excellent men but are unable to par- ticipate on account of their school work, and annual. Reaves is the only man, who will enter Southeast Missouri meet at Cape Girardeau in May. Reaves won last year sixth place for his school, Portageville, out of twenty-seven high schools, winning medals in the shot put and the high jump. The black and gold is depending upon Reaves to win honors for the H. H. S. in May. THE SPRING OF PEACE Oh, the birds are singing gaily, For they know that winter dead; And the tender flowers are smiling At the warm sky overhead. Thus the hearts of men will sing When the storms of warm shall cease; And the weary world be gladdened In some blooming Spring of Peace.

To each one it brings recollections of those boys as we knew them in every day life and we wonder and then try to imagine what their life is now. We point with pride to our service flag, with it’s seven stars representing one teacher, one gradu- ate, and five students who enlisted while attending school. And when some stranger asks us for the names of our boys in service we smile to ourselves when we name them over, thinking of some incident usually amusing or particularly touching. The memories are pleasant indeed but we’re not forgetting that all of us should live in the’present and not in the past. And so we listen eagerlyTor a bit of news concerning them; we write them encour- aging letters as we can; we let them know that we are supporting them in every way possible. And we’re hoping that it will be one of Our Boys” who will raise Old Glory over Berlin.

I liked the work very much because it seemed to me that I could do more good there than any other place in the great World War. While on duty I met with but one thing that even resembled pleasure; but that one thing I shall always hold as the greatest pleasure of my life. I drove my car when the sun was shining very very hot. I drove it through deep snow and heavy rain. The weather conditions make very little, if any difference to the boy or man in service of France and Uncle Sam—to say nothing of the other waring nations. It was early one autumn morning. The ambulance driver had gone on duty, and Red Cross nurses were hurrying to and fro, for in a short time the first wounded were to be brought to our newly estab- lished First Aid Hospital. I hail just arrived and would not go on duty until next day, so I hijd some time in which to get acquainted with the workings of the hospital. Pretty soon the first ambulances began to arrive. These brought men and boys of every type with every kind of wound that could be received on a cruel battle field. Some were severely wounded, others only slightly. It was certainly interesting to watch the nimble American girls, both old and young, as they worked untiringly, going from one wounded soldier to another administering to their needs and wants. Oh, how bravely they worked with the dreadfully bleeding wounds without a sign of fear. These were the kind of people I was going to work with. Next day we started quite early. I had made two trips to and from the battlefield, under such heavy fire I could scarcely hear any- thing, or tell which way to go. The third trip the fire was heavier than before. Ye had filled my ambulance, and I was starting for the hospital, when above the sounds of fire, my car, and the groans of my patients, a familiar voice came to me—a voice I had heard sometime, somewhere, but I could not tell just where it was. I stopped my car—a very unusual thing for an ambulance driver to do—to see if I could discover where it was, and what its owner wanted. I soon discovered a man whose arm had been shot off above his elbow. I took him to my car, but could find no room for him, so I told him that the next ambulance would pick him up. But he held to me with his one weak hand and begged to be taken along. One look into his haggared face told me that the next car would be too late to save him. I bound a cord around the wounded arm and prop- ped the boy up in the seat beside me, and drove to the hospital faster than I had ever dreamed of driving. He had fainted when we arrived but after much work on the part of the nurses, we saw him breathe again. He lay unconscious several days. I never failed to inquire about him, but when he finally regained consciousness I was on duty. He asked about me. When I went to him I found him to be the boy who had been my best friend the first two years of high school, and since then I had not heard from him. Now he has fully recovered and he often visits me, and helps me with my work. He has saved my life innumeral times; that is why I call stopping in that dangerous place—when a minute’s time might have cost my life and those of my patients, picking up a dying boy, the one great thing of my life. Now the greatest of all my pleas- ures is to look back to the day when I saved a boy who is now my best friend. H B 5 Ty , - The front part of the buildinng was erected in 1901. It consisted of six rooms being in shape of a T. As the school grew it needed more room so in 1912 the new addition was added, making the building the shape of an “H,” the initial of our promising city. As the years ffew by our school kept growing by leaps and bounds; so this year the district bought the old City Hall and remodeled it into a modern High School building. The pupils of the coming year will have the honor of being the first to occupy this beautiful building. The first principal to occupy the old building was Sterling H. McCarty, who taught from 1901 until 1902. At that time, eight grades and part of the ninth were taught. There were about 150 pupils enrolled. Mr. B. S. Stearns followed him as principal, teaching here until 1908. Messrs. Hargrove, Napper and Harrington follewed, each holding the position for one year. In 1912 Mr. W. H. Johnson, our present superintendent, accept- ed the position. At that time our school was at the bottom of the lad- der,, being on the third class list and offering only a two year high school course. From the beginning, Mr. Johnson showed himself to be a leader. Under his guidance, the school advanced so that it was placed on the first class list in 1916. The enrollment this year was 465 and the school is still growing. Sept. 3—Senior Class is organied. Sept. 4—Trouble with the program. Sept. 5—“Boys interested in football please remain after four o’clock. Sept. G—Discussing the new school building. Sept. 7—Senior Class organize a Dramatic Club.
