When he presented himself before the sisters he bowed low and asked for the records of his special group. Who are your protegees?” The Sophomore Class of Jackson High School.” The records having been placed before him, he began turning them over till he came to 1918. “They seemed to have progressed rapidly,” he mused to himself. ‘They surely are worthy of my best efforts in their behalf. See their scholastic record, surely one to be proud of. They wasted no time on society but established their foundation first. With Edward as their president, Ruth their vice president and Ralph as their secretary it is small wonder that they proceeded in every undertaking. Their social side was not wholly undeveloped. I see here a party and a box social. I wonder how it would be if I visit them, they must be well into their second year now.” Acting upon the inspiration the good fairy spread his wings and flew. Having visited his friends before, he knew when he had reached the spot by the fish which was whirling and quaking over the building. As he settled to earth he heard sounds of sweet music and peering through the windows he saw his friends as the performers. As he poised on the window sill he saw in the group six of his special Sophomore Class. Ruth Shumate and William White with cornets, Glennora Morgan, Theodore Michael and Edward Callahan with violins and Ralph Peters with the trom-bcn.. He was delighted. “I wcnder,’ he thought, “how they stand in scholarship.” So slipping behind the chair of Miss Jones, as she copied the grades, he found that they were well, maintaining the record of their Freshman year. •‘Before I leave I must find the leaders of the class and give them a message of good cheer.” So listening he found that Ruth Shumate was now filling the President's chair, with Margaret Morgan as her assistant. The keeper of the golden treasury and the book of fate, was Marie Lawson, a fair-haired maiden of the north who had been attracted south to join this wonderful class. Having found that his company was proving itself talented. In the various programs in which it took part, he was over-joyed that the fairies had given him this special group. Two literary societies gave them ample opportunity for self-expression. Thus satisfied the fairy flew on the journey, knowing that the Sophomore Class of Jackson High School could well take care of itself until his next visit. 19 (@skii IBflui 19 ®t|p fmtng 2£nwr 1st. Prize. (By Raymond Boothe) Three hundred miles off the coast of Ireland, the “Sea Witch,” bound from Westport to New York, was plunging: westward through a rolling green sea. The “Sea Witch” was a large vessel, staunch and strong, and bore a good record of having sailed the seas for seven years, never having met with a serious disaster. It was a sailing vessel with two masts and had accomodations for ten passengers, although there were none of the latter. The crew of the “Sea Witch” consisted of fourteen sailors and two officers. Of the fourteen sailors one was a bright-faced, well-built lad of about seventeen years. He came from New Jersey and was known as Frank Steel. The commander of the “Sea Witch,” Captain Thomas Jones, was a stout, gray haired man of military bearing, nearing fifty years of age. He had been in service five years and was capable of taking charge of any ship, bound to any part of the world. It was evening and the crew had just been piped to supper. A brisk wind had been blowing offshore all day and the sun sank in a bank of hard greasy-looking clouds. “A storm as sure as fate,” remarked one old sailor to Frank, as they stood by the rail in the shadow of the mainsail, gazing thoughtfully out across the white-crested combers which seemed to be getting larger every moment. “I think you're right,” answered Frank, after gazing at the clouds for a moment. “And when it does come it sure will be a corker.” The old sailor said no more. And after gazing at the scurrying clouds a while longer Frank decided that he had better turn in and try to get as much sleep as possible before the storm came. Several of his shipmates had turned in shortly after the evening meal. Frank slept soundly being by this time accustomed to the noises and laboring of the ship. He was awakened at tight boBs, midnight, by a fearful crash and a trampling of feet above. He got out of his bunk, but only to be thrown violently to the other end of his cabin. He picked himself up with great difficulty, dressed himself. He then made his way to the deck. One glance was enough to tell him what was the matter. One of those summer gales that occasionally overtakes a ship at sea, was howling in all of its fury. The seas were running in black mountains. They seemed to engulf the staunch craft but always the “Sea Witch” labored on. Frank noticed that one of the masts had fallen, and he decided that this was the cause of the crash that had awakened him. Suddenly the man at the wheel must have let the ship fall off her course, for a mountainous wave came rushing across the deck picking up Frank like a chip of wood, and hurling him against the rail leaving him there gasping for breath. Here he clung, bruised and choking till the wave passed. “Whew! That was a narrow escape,” muttered Frank as he picked himself up. He made his way to the shelter of the wheel house, where an old quartermaster was gripping the spokes of the wheel guiding the crippled ship on her course. “Do you think we are going to the bottom?” asked the dripping Frank. “This don’t amount to much,” was the reply of the old sailor. ‘Wait till you cross in midwinter, then you will see real storms.” He turned his attention to the bucking and jerking wheel while Frank squeezed some of the water out of his dripping garments. On the bridge, Captain Jones, a shining figure in dripping oilskins, was clinging to the railing. By his side stood his mate, Amos Hardtack. Suddenly the ships' carpenter, who had been sent below to see if the ship had sprung any leaks, came running up to the Captain exclaim- (Continued on next page) 19 (0a ky EJnui (Sbr fmuty i’pa Smipr (Continued from Preceding Page) t ing breathlessly. “We have sprung a leak, and the hold is flooding fast For a moment, the captain tugged at his gray beard, which glistened with spray. “Mr. Hartack!” he called. “Aye, aye, sir!” replied the mate. “Select five men, and set them to work at the pumps, relieving them every two hours.” The mate hurried off on his errand while the captain returned his gaze to the racing billows, which towered like mountains about the “Sea Witch.” Frank was among the five selected to work the pumps, but it was all in vain. The water rose steadily in the hold and the ship soon began to sink. The leak was somwhere in compartment No 4, that was certain; but how to stop it was a problem. The water in the hold was already deep enough to drown a man. The hole had to ba found and stopped up, but the seaman who went down in the depths of the ship was taking his life in his hands. He was running the risk of being overwhelmed by the water. If the ship sank while he was below there would be no chance of his being saved. At last Frank volunteered for the task. Plunging into the water he felt along the ships' bottom and located the leaks. There were two of them, not very large, he found, but still sufficient to swamp the “Sea Witch.” Coming up he secured some cork, dived down again and stopped the openings. The pumps were kept going and soon the “Sea Witch” was sailing the seas as lightly as ever. The next day when the “Sea Witch” sailed into New York harbor, Frank was promoted to first-mate by the captain, and amidst the ringing cheers of his shipmates we will leave him. PROUD OF IT, TOO. Mrs. Cavett—They tell me Ted plays on the Jackson High School foot ball team. Mrs. Gerkin—It is quite true. Mrs. Cavett—Do you know what position he plays ? Mrs. Gerkin—I’m not sure, but I think he is one of the drawbacks. HEARD IN SCHOOL YARD. “Is she as sour as she looks?” “Sour? Why if that girl gazed aloft on a starry night she’d curdle the Milky Way.” Words of a dying Cannibal—“Write me down as one who loved his fellow men.” What is taken from you before you get it?

Norman E.—There is one better book than this book (holding up a History book). Gladys Morgan—‘What is that?” Norman—John D. Rockefeller’s pocket book.” Mr. Shumate—Why is Harvey Scurlock like an automobile ? Miss Baird—Why? Mr. Shumate—Because he is continually getting out of order. In one of the camps down South a soldier was grumbling because there was sand in his sandwich. “Didn't you come down here to serve your country and not to grumble,” said his sergeant. “Yes,” said the soldier, “I came down here to serve it, but not to eat it.” TRUE. Mr. Kinnison—“Does your wife come after you when you stay out late?” Mr. Shumate—“No. She waits until I come home, then she goes for me.” OUR LANGUAGE. “Did you call Mary up this morning?” “Yes, but she wasn’t down.” ‘Why didn’t you call her down?” “Because she wasn’t up.” “Then call her up now and call her down for not being down when you called her up. ©fltrrra Snbtt dtiffirr. {Irraiitrut ifliU'irrii Santa.

After a long time he got in touch with Mr. Edison, the operator on the planet Earth. This was the first message ever sent over the wireless to another planet and Mr. Edison, the inventor was to send the message and receive the reply. Indirect messages had been sent before, but this was to be the crowning success. An interpreter was on both planets. After sending messages of minor importance the operator on Mars flashed the message, “The people on Mars are interested in this year’s Freshman Class of Jackson High School. Tell us about this illustrious class.” Then after a time came the reply Mr. Edison had received from the class of 1922. “We will put in a few words what it took us eight years to accomplish. In our early school years we built a strong foundation and we are making it stronger as we go along. After passing through the usual spasms of spelling matches, valentine boxes, multiplication tables, surprise parties, apple rolls and standing in the corner we came to the crowning event in our eighth grade commencement. We thought we had reached the highest point in our school life when we received our diplomas showing that we had completed eight years of school life successfully but the next Fall when we entered High School, ninety-seven strong we decided there was something greater in store for us. The Sophormores evidently thought we had a great deal more to learn because they took great delight in calling us “Freshies.” With the help of our teachers, Miss Jones Palmer, Martin and Corrigan we brushed the cobwebs out of our brains and after proving to the upper classmen that we were brilliant as well as good-looking we turned to other fields of conquest. Although the Sophomores looked down upon us as mere infants we showed them that we had a better knowledge of class organization than they. They had talked for quite a time about organizing their class, but as the saying goes, “talk is cheap.” It took the Freshmen to act. We didn’t talk about it for several weeks nor wait for another class to start it. We had our first class meeting and elected John Stiffler as our honorable President, Mildred Davis as our charming Vice President, and Hildreth Cohen as our trusted Secretary and Treasurer. The morning after the election all the school knew that something had been doing because we came wearing our class colors, “orange and b!ack.” After the “Freshies” had started things going of course our rivals organized their class. We haven’t been in High School long but everybody knows that we are there and from the brilliant start of many of our members we expect to have a President of the United States at least from our number. “But we will let our deeds talk for us.” After this message had been flashed to Mars the conversation closed thus making the first trial of talking between two planets successful and as the operator of Mars in a latter message said, “The message of Jackson High School was well worth all the trouble it cost. It won’t be very long before any number of messages will be sent between Mars and the Earth but the members of the class of 1922 are glad that their history was considered important enough to be given the first message. lfl lfl 19 (0skii IHuut 19 Santmtii (Sarria (By Margaret Howell) When Ramond Garcia came to Danford Prep School, he evoked much curiosity but very little enthusiasm. The curiosity was because of his nationality; Danford was situated in the extreme East and few students there had ever seen a genuine Mexican before. The lack of enthusiasm r?sulted from Ramond’s frank disavowal of any athletic ability. Stan Durkee, the captain of the foot ball team, was standing cn the front steps talking to Doug Sanders, the big fullback, the day Ramond arrived. Doug saw him first. “Wow-e-e. he exclaimed. “See what we have with us, Stan.” Stan looked around. A low whistle of surprise escaped him; and it was small wonder. Ram end's appearance was unusual, to say the least. His huge straw sombrero, his shiny new b’ue overalls, his square toed shoes, and his flaring red necktie—all these went to comprise an attire that was enough to startle any boy who had never been west of the Rockies. Rambnd quietly came up the stairs and passing the two boys without a glance, entered the building. “Snubbed us as cool as you please,” grinned Stan. “Mackerel! Did you notice that hat? And those shoes? And that Fourth-of-July necktie,” “Quite a make-up!” big Doug grinned back. What is he any how—Spanish?” “Scoop” McGrew coming from the building, the boys pounced upon him with a volley of questions. “Him?” Scoop said briskly. He’s a Mexican. Name’s Ramond Garcia. They’ve expected him for a week. Professor Phillips met his father, a rich old cattleman, when he was out west studying those cave-dwellings last summer. Old fellow took such a liking to him that he decided to send his boy here to school. “You say his father is rich?” queried Stan. “Then why doesn’t he spend a little money on clothes? Our gardener at home wears trousers like those of his—only not so new.” “You don’t understand. Where he’s from those clothes are quite the thing. Fact is, Professor Fhillips says he’s something of a dandy in the little town he lived in. They’re mostly Mexicans in the place, and—” There was a sudden click behind them. As they turned, the door swung open, and Ramond G'-r ia himself stepped out, followed by Professor Fhillips. Seeing them the professor came forward. “Boys,” he said, “I want you to meet our new student. Ramond, this is Douglas Sanders at right. The other is Stanton Durkee. You met Emmet McGrew a few minutes ago, I believe.” Douglas stepped up and shook hands. “Glad to know you, Ramond,” he said heartily. “I rm g’ad also to know you,” replied Ramond, speaking good English, but arranging his words awkwardly, as Mexicans are apt to. Stan came up more slowly. “I’m pleased to meet you,” he said formally. He eyed (he other critically. “You’ve got a good build,” he approved. “Ever play any foot ball?” Ramond shook his head. He seemed puzzled. “Baseball? Can you run fast then? No? Stan g’anced over toward the river, plainly vis-ib’c from where they stood. “I don’t suppose you row either, do you? Well for pity’s sake, ycu must do something, don’t you?” “Say, boys come round to the athletic field and I will show you what my Venturo and I can do.” Going to the field, the boys had gathered a crowd, while their new-comer was preparing for h:s stunts. Seated astride a nervous little black pony, the co 'ed end of a raw hide, held with bridle reins, in his left hand and the loop in his right, the Mexican youth came from the shacked, going through a series of feats that held his specta- (Continued on next page) ©aky fflmu 10 Samonft (Sarria (Continued from Preceding Page) tors spell-bound. He would go charging up the field with the loop spinning about him in a perfect circle—now high above his head, now so low that it threatened to entangle his horse’s feet, then he would rope objects, yards away with apparent ease, and with an accuracy almost uncanny; then, with his pony traveling full tilt, he would slip off to the ground, and, while the watchers gasped, calmly bring the animal up on its haunches dozens of feet ahead. The boys watched the exhibition in silence. Then Stan Durkee stepped out in front. Ramond was but a short distance at the moment. ‘Say, you’re pretty fair, but I saw a fellow do a stunt in a wild west show that I’ll wager you couldn’t do, though.” Ramond looked up. ‘‘Maybe I couldn't,” he added, ‘‘and then maybe I could. Suppose you tell me what it is that he did?” ‘‘Well,” said Stan, “he stood a man off about fifty feet from him, and took off his hat so clean that he didn’t even spoil the part of his hair.” Ramond coiled the rope. “Let’s see, he said, his dark eyes twinkling. ‘You are about fifty feet from here, I think, Well—” “Here you!” cried Stan, “I didn’t mean I wanted you to try it on me. I—” But even as he spoke, he saw Ramond straighten up in his addle, and an intant later a wide black circle came floating toward him. Lowering the rope, Ramond drew the hat from Stanton’s head very easily. This brought the boys to the conclusion that Ramond was as athletic as they. Soon Ramond became an athlete in all the College games and was no longer known as the “Mexican boy, but as the “Star Athlete” of Danford Prep School. SNAP. “An easy job will suit me.” “How about winding the clocks every week?” “I might make that do, but what’s the matter with tearing the leaves off the calendar every month?” Ted Gerken in English, “Michel Angelo painted his master piece “The Last Judgment” on his back.” (Great applause). “Is it correct to say a hen ‘sits’ or ‘sets’”, asked the Sophomore who was visiting on the farm. “I don’t care whether she ‘sets’ or ‘sits’,” replied the farmer. “What I want to know is, when she cackles, does she ‘lay’ or does she ‘lie’?” Miss Martin in latin class—Myron, “Give the principal parts of the latin word for to skate.” Myron E.—Skate, slippire, falli, bumptus.

Great holes were torn in the ground so deeply that the bottoms of them were in entire darkness. Trees were uprooted and twisted and entwined about each other as though they were endeavoring to stay on their native soil by massing themselves together. Here and there the huge trunk of some mighty tree that had been left standing, threw black shadows over the ground. Everything was quiet there, that solemn awful stillness which denotes the presence of death or of something sacred. Sister Mary Lysle noted all these things as she glanced fearfully into the deep, black holes or started suddenly at the appearance of one of the long black shadows which some how to her would resemble a German. Mary Lysle had been in the hospitals of France since the beginning of the w ar. She always visited the battlefield, near which her camp was located after the dead and wounded were removed, dreading, yet hoping to find the object of her search. Although she had made these nightly visits time and again, she never discovered any living soldiers, for the doctors and nurses were very careful to remove everybody in the hope that a life might be saved. Sister Mary, as the soldiers called her because she was so kind and thoughtful, did not now hesitate or turn back but kept steadily on looking about her for someone whom the doctors might have missed. Suddenly Mary thought she heard a faint sound, just a trembling faint sound which seemed in some manner to have been caught up and borne through the air. Mary stopped and leaned forward in a strained, listening attitude. The red cross on her cap shone brightly in the pale moonlight. Again the faint sound was carried to her ear. Was that a moan or a sob? It seemed almost to be both. A third time it came to her ear. There was no mistake. Some living person was on that terrible battle-field besides Mary, but whether it was friend or foe she could not tell. Without hesitation and fearing no danger, Mary now hurried in the direction of the sound. Pausing again and again to listen she could tell that the sounds were becoming plainer and more distinct. Evidently the doctors had overlooked some wounded or dying soldier on this terrible day. Suddenly a great gasping shell-hole opened its yawning mouth at her feet. Mary had just time to balance herself, for one more step would have precipitated her into the black hole. The moan came to her directly beneath her feet. All at once it dawned on Mary that the soldier was lying at the bottom of that hole. This was the reason the doctors had not found him. He had probably been unconscious when they passed that section of the field. Mary called and the answer came so indistinctly and low that she could not make out what he was saying. She stooped down and peered intently into the blackness. The hole seemed to be cup shaped and she thought she could see a khaki uniform. Mary now began to scramble down the steep side of the opening. The dirt slipped beneath her feet and went sliding to the bottom. Her h: nds were buried deep in the loose earth searching in vain for a firm hold. Suddenly she began to slide and was unable to stop. Faster and faster she went the dust almost suffocating her, until at last she was at the bottom of the pit. Mary, half buried in the dirt, tried to raise herself several times but without success. Another moan near her gave her added strength and she stood upon her feet. Crossing over to the wounded soldier and bending down she lifted his head to give him some water from the flask which she always carried with her. “Brother Ralph!” she exclaimed. “Sister Mary!” came from the pale lips of the dying man. A silence of several minutes followed. (Continued on next page) 19 (®skij HJnut 19 ©ttr ©f Earth a Angrla (Continued from Preceding Page) “I will go for help, Ralph,” sobbed Mary. ‘‘Wait, it may not be of any use, Mary, and I want to tell you something. Today while we wire in camp”—the words came brokenly and unevenly—“a man whom I had noticed following me several times—handed me a paper and quickly went out.” Here speech became more agonized than before. ‘‘I read the paper—it tells who stole that money from the bank—he is dead now—he feil beside me. I was innocent—although I ran away—I knew they would find me guilty.—Take this—to mother.” In vain Mary tried to rouse him. She never knew how she climbed out of that hole or how she reached the hospital to summon aid. Her story was soon told and a doctor with three nurses followed Mary back to her brother. After what seemed hours to Mary, they were back in the hospital and the doctors said there was some hope of Ralph’s recovery. Four months passed and Ralph was able to hobble around on crutches and when the “Freedom” set sail for America, two figures could be recognized on the deck waving good-bye to doctors and nurses. These were Mary and Ralph who were returning home to mother and peace. WORDS DEFINED, “Athlete”—A dignified bunch of muscles unable to split wood or sift ashes. (The backline on the foot ball team especially). “Echo”—The only thing that cheats a woman from the last word. (By Mr. Shumate). “Dance”—A brisk physical exercise invented by St. Vitus. “Football”—A clever subterfuge for carrying on a prize fight under guise of a reputable game. “Love”—A man’s insane desire to become a woman’s meal ticket. “Miracle”—A woman who won’t talk.

Edward Callahan and Sam Stephenson were sitting in a car when a pretty girl came in and smiled at the former. He raised his hat. “Do you know her?” asked Sam. “Oh yes, very well,” Edward replied. “Well shall we go over and sit beside her, and you can introduce me?” asked Sam. “Wait a bit,” returned Edward, “she has not paid her fare yet.” Frank Moore—(praying) “Now I lay me down to sleep; In my little bed, If I should die before I wake, How will I know I’m dead?’ 14 (Oiikti Hlnut 14 iFmit Hall John 35lutmatr, (Captain (Chaa.

He will be found in the box the coming season to help defeat all opponents. RALPH CAMP—(Capt., Catcher.

FLOYD PATTERSON—(3rd Baseman)—He has the making of a good player if Patterson would take things up with a more grimness while in practice and a game he could make for himself a name.

The game was very close at first and it looked a if J. H. S. had a job on their hands. But they soon found their batting eye, and sewed up the game. The final score was 15 to 6, J. H.

The game was very close. The score was 4 to 0 at the end of the sixth in favor of J. H. S., but errors soon started and coupled with some good hits by John Hancock we lost. The final score being 6 to5. This ended the season of 1918. The team wishes to thank Rev.

But we fought it cut and lost by the score of 39 to 0 which was very good considering the facts that we had no coach and very little practice. Capt.

Canton, Ohio PHOTOGRAPHER Miller Studio Jackson, Ohio We thoroughly appreciate the high class of work done by our photographers, “The Miller Studio”—The aid and cooperation of the Northern Engraving Co., of Canton, Ohio, and the Jackson Herald Printing Co. Especially do we appreciate the willingness of the faculty and the members of the student body of our High School in giving aid in the compiling of this Annual. Upon which cooperation depends, in no small degree, the success of such an undertaking. E. PAUL EVANS, Editor. The task of publishing an annual is quite large and requires a large amount of time. This annual was no exception to the rule and while we have done our best there may be faults of various natures found herein but we ask the public to consider them kindly and to keep in mind the fact that, owing to the schools being closed because cf the influenza epidemic, we were greatly delayed in the work to be performed but nevertheless we have done what we could to make this publication a success and sincerely hope it may meet with your approval. CHARLES E. DAVIS, Business Manager, T9. We have dedicated this annual to the boys who joined the ranks in the service of their country. From our Jackson Schools there has been over two hundred boys who were in the service, five of whom gave their lives. Since these boys have made the supreme sacrifice, that of offering their very lives for the sake of freedom, may we, the members of the Jackson High School, in our lives, dedicate ourselves to the work of education, and the building of a better nation, which the boys who return may live and enjoy to the fullest extent, the freedom for which they so valiantly fought. That those who gave up their lives may not have died in vain. HELEN REDFERN, % Ass’t. Editor. REGARDING OUR ADVERTISEMENTS. The business men of Jackson are the loyal friends of the Students of Jackson High. This year as preceding years the business m n have contributed in making this edition a success. We must give the business men of Jackson the credit of making the baseball team this year a success. Therefore, the management of this annual kindly ask that our readers at least give the courtesy of reading their advertisements—then there will not be any question asked about patronizing them. ED. I. TORE. m Ulnut 13 « Athletics form one of the most prominent features of the school life today. All first class schools have representatives in the various sports. In the past as at the present Jackson High has placed teams in the field. The ability to do this is due chiefly to the merchants who have sc faithfully assisted us in financial ways. We also wish to thank the Citizens Bank for thair favor in lending football equipment to us. The outlook for future teams seems remarkably bright and hopeful, and we sincerely hope for future success on both diamond and gridiron. EDWARD CALLAHAN, Assistant Manager. The success of the annual of each year depends upon the spirit which the school shows toward it. The staff is only the representative of each class and must depend upon the help of each boy and girl during the compiling of this book. The spirit this year has been very good and we hope the annual will meet the approval of everyone who is interested in it. MARGARET SHAFFER, Sophomore. The staff wishes to extend its best wishes to the staff members of the annuals which will follow this and to turn over to them whatever inspiration has not been used in the compiling of this worthy book: We also extend our sympathy to them for the trials and tribulations through which they must pass before the work of their brain is placed before the admiring( ?) public. Many people think that cartoons are drawn for the sole purpose of amusement. But nearly all cartoons have a purpose—It is an idea given to the people in a way that will attract them. Many cartoons have helped to sell Liberty Bends, War Savings Stamps, and have contributions to Welfare Work. So let us not think of the cartoons as simply foolish pictures but that which has been done for a purpose. NORMAN ERVIN. Art Editor.
