In it we have endeavored to keep up the past reputation of the book, and the good name of the school. That there have been several new features added we need not mention, but we do call your attention to the fact that the book is larger by sixteen pages than it has ever been before, and that only the best of paper and engravings have been used in it. It goes without saying that this yearbook, costing over $400.00 as it does, would be impossible of publication without the help of our advertisers, the loyal merchants of Jackson. Patronize them. In conclusion, the Staff begs your praise where it is merited, and asks that you be sparing in your condemnation if it be deserved. We desire to thank the Faculty, the Student Body, and all who have in any way aided us, for their kind co operation, and extend our best wishes to the Staffs that are yet to be. —EDITORIAL STAFF. urn Cthiit gtiihitin spirit uthirh prruahrs rurrij artiuitg nf nur lifr. o-lutt hrrathrs iiatlg inapiratinn into nur hearts fnr rnnprratinr rffnrt. unatintrh Inualty auh rnntiumuis gnnh faith Unuarit rarh nthrr. iln thr Spirit nf Harkann tSiph iyrhnnl Iflr insrrihr this hunk. ■ --From here we depart. An Appmtattmt By FRANK DELAY JUDGE OF THE PROBATE COURT Jackson County, Ohio aUSTICE, the rendering to everyone, without distinction, his just dues, is an essential characteristic of good citizenship. He is unworthy the name of Teacher who instructs his pupils, our future citizens, in all the Knowledge of the Universe, yet fails to instil into their minds the realization that Justice is one of the greatest of the virtues. DUCATION, in Jackson, is identified with one outstanding name. Many, and faithful, and earnest have been its advocates; but above and beyond all others is the man who has given his life to Jackson’s schools. INDNESS is the salt wherewith is savored our relations toward each other. Lacking Kindness, Justice is robbed of half its virtue, and Education but fits its possessor to live within and for himself. ■ t • t - t For thirty nine years Jackson’s Beloved Educator not only has taught her children Knowledge, but by his precept and his example has inculcated Justice in all our dealings, tempered with Kindness in thought, and word, and deed. j USTICE, £ DUCATION, K INDNESS-- ask any of the boys and girls who have attended Jackson's schools, in the years of his association with them, what man they have known who best embodies their highest ideals of these principles, and the answer will not be long in coming— JAMES £D6AR KINNISON. ©ur JIrtttrijml Cury iU. ilmtra By JOHN H. N EW V A H N E R PRESIDENT OF THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK Jackson, Ohio HE JACKSON SCHOOLS, for years, have had teachers who earned far more than their salaries-- teachers whose ideal was Service. There have been many of them, and they have been ideal teachers. But among them all, the name of Miss Lucy B. Jones stands pre eminent. In her girlhood, she attended our schools as a student. Graduating in the course of time, she became a teacher. And from that day to this, Miss Jones has been very closely identified with our schools, advancing step by step, till today she is Principal of the High School. Miss Jones has been in the service longer than any other person. Hundreds of pupils, indeed we might say almost all the voung people of Jackson for years past, have been under her care. How has she done her work? Ask the hundreds of young men who have gone forth into the world and made good. Ask the hundreds of young women who are today the flower of Jackson’s womanhood. Compensation? Such services can not be measured in money. Her reward is in the knowledge of services welldone. And her good influence will live long after she will have given up her work. As a stone dropped into the placid lake causes the ripples to go in ever-widening circles to the farthest shore, so will the good influence of this faithful woman go in ever-widening circles through the years. And now--just a flower for her, while living: let every person who has ever been a pupil of Miss Jones, go to her and give her a cordial hand shake, and a few words of appreciation of what she has done for you. You, my reader, do this in remembrance of the days, possibly long ago, when she helped you through some hard problem, and gave you a word of encouragement. She will appreciate this from you today. And you, parents, do likewise, for the interest she is taking in your child. You owe her this, and more. And that Miss Jones may be with us for many years to come, to guide, and GEORGIANNA COLL Music EDNA RICKEY Language MARY C. EVENS History The Call To Service! BY M. A. HENSON, ’83 m E ARE LIVING in strenuous times. Our Nation has been assailed with in and without. The call has gone forth to every citizen of the Nation for his support. Patriotic men and women are rallying to the defense of their country. It has occured to the writer that our Alumni Association, co-operating with the High School, might wield even a greater influence in the future than it has in the past, by choosing a few lines of action and concentrating upon these. What can the Alumni Association and the High School do to make Jackson a better and safer place in which to live? What can they do to contribute to the needs and welfare of the state and nation? First, Jackson needs a Public Library open every day and evening of the week, with a reading room where old and young may find papers, magazines and books of reference that individual homes cannot afford. Second, Jackson needs a Public Lecture Course during the winter, and a Chautauqua Course in the summer, where its citizens may receive entertainment and inspiration from the greatest artists and orators of the land. Third, Jackson needs a gymnasium for the physical training of its boys and girls. We should have an in-door gymnasium, but even more pressing is the need of public playgrounds. It will cost money to provide, equip, and maintain these, but it will be a saving of money in the long run. Already the town has permitted two groves within its corporate limits to be cut down. We have one more grove left. Before it is too late, this should be secured by the town, and sufficient land above high water mark where all our youth could engage in those sports indispensable to growth and development. Fourth. The last need that I shall mention is the completion of our High School building. Our Board of Education is anxious to do its part. To secure the means will require higher taxes, and taxes are never popular. The Alumni Association can do much to mold favorable public sentiment for this work. We hear much of the need of Americanization these days. We have few foreigners in our town, but our own people need training. Whatever makes life richer and better will improve citizenship and patriotism. Could the Alumni Association and the High School have a worthier aim?

We had been eight years in the grades” and our life there had passed as the lives of those who had gone before us. We had had Valentine Boxes, May Poles and programmes, and our never-to-be-forgotten Commencement, when our much-loved Chieftain Barrel had presented our diplomas to us. But this happy life was over and we, who had been the brave huntsmen of the year before, gazed in wide-eyed wonder at the strange sights, queer people and odd noises about us. Big Chief Kinnison welcomed us and we were divided into three tribes. A, B and C, according to the game we wished to hunt. And then—our courage failed us, for we met our new chieftains in turn and were told what weapons would be required in our hunt. During the first week in the Freshman Hunting Ground we were teased unmercifully by higher huntsmen, hut we bore it patiently and were so interested in our surroundings that we paid no attention to them and they gradually ceased tormenting us. After the first few weeks our life settled to a regular routine. We waded far out into the Big-Sea-Waters after Algebra, although Chieftain Jones brought it as near to us as possible. We climbed over high mountains in pursuit of Latin and were continually stumbling over sticks and stones along the side, instead of keeping in the narrow path Chieftain Martin had cleared for us. We hunted English, Biology, and Arithmetic in deep forests or dark caves, but they were not so difficult to find as Latin and Algebra. Along with our work we had many social events during the year. We had liter-aries and parties and helped in a play given by our dear music instructress. Chieftain Coll and spent many happy evenings at the wigwams of our chiefs. So passed our Freshman Year which is almost over, and— “From the brow of every Freshman Gone is every trace of sorrow, As the fog from off the water— As the mist from off the meadow— With a smile of joy and triumph— With a look of exultation. As of one who in a vision Sees what is to be—Vacation.” HARRY E. MARQUIS Athletic Director Wgt. 155 BLUME Wgt. 150.

At the end of the second half the score stood (1-0 with Portsmouth in the lead. They scored again in the third period, and when the whistle blew at the end of the fourth quarter, the score stood 27-0 with Portsmouth victorious. WELLSTON GAME On October 4th, we visited our worthy opponents at Wellston with the determination of showing them some real football. The scoring started early in the game and not once was our goal in danger. The game ended with a 45-0 score, and this marked our first victory of the season. LOGAN GAME On October 18th we went to- Logan. Logan had scored a victory before over Xelsonville H. S„ and they were confident of a victory over Jackson. They started off with a rush and carried the hall right up the field and scored a touchdown. The J. H. S. boys rallied in the second quarter, and, when the game ended, the score was 18-6, with a second victory of the season for us. NELSONVILLE GAME On October 25th. on the home grounds we demonstrated to the H. 8. students and the people of Jackson our brand of football. Xelsonville H. S. were our victims and we smothered them with a 45-0 score. The Jackson High boys played like veterans and at no time was our goal in danger. GALLIPOLIS GAME On the morning of November 1st, we motored to Gallipolis through a heavy downpour and played on a water-soaked field. The game was scheduled for late in the day and it was dark when we fin- ished. Fumbles were frequent by both teams, and on this date we suffered our second defeat of the season, the score being 18-6. ALUMNI GAME On November 8th we met the Alumni on the home grounds. They put up a good fight and with more training could have produced a strong and speedy team. The Jackson H. 8. line held like a stone wall and could not be penetrated. The Alumni chose the aerial method of attack and succeeded in completing some long passes. The terminals of the J. H. 8. team broke up several of their plays and the game ended with another victory to our credit to the tune of 14-0. GALLIPOLIS GAME Cn November 15th we met Gallipolis in Jack-son. This was a game that we had been looking forward to ever since we had suffered defeat at the hands of Gallipolis H. 8. Xow we were ready to turn the tide. Gallipolis came on the field expecting to take another victory from Jackson and they were accompanied by several auto loads of rooters. We proved our worth by showing them some real football and trimming them by a score of 14-0. LOGAN GAME On November 22nd, Logan came upon the local field determined to get hack the game that they had lost on their home grounds the first of the season. The Jackson High boys again proved too much for them and Logan went down to defeat, the score being 19-0. AWARDED SWEATERS ('apt. Washam, Mgr. Stephenson, Jenkins. Albert.

When Mussels Paid The Mortgage BY HAROLD K SCHELLENGER FIRST PRIZE STORY HE SUN was fast sinking into the distant waters. The last red rays formed a brilliant pathway over the waves. A Hock of birds passed overhead toward their nesting places in the woodland beyond. A few vessels were anchored in the harbor, silhouetted against the brilliancy of the western sky. A bell rang out clearly in the distance. At the sound of the bell a lad of a-bout sixteen years who had been sitting on the shore for some time quickly a-rose and made his way toward the little white house from which the sound had come. The lad's clothing was patched, he was bareheaded, and wore no shoes or stockings. As he approached the house a sweet-faced lady came out to greet him. “Where have you been this afternoon, son?” she inquired anxiously. “I’ve looked for you everywhere.” Oil. just down to the shore,” he re-nlied. “What on earth have you been doing there all afternoon?” the mother next asked. “Oh, just thinking. Notliing more was said. The mother did not need to ask what her son was thinking about so seriously. The father of the little family had been lost in a storm a year before, and the little sum of money he had left them had slowly dwindled away, leaving the mother and son to pay off a mortgage of several hundred dollars within a few months, or else give un the little home they loved so much. The boy was a good son and loved his mother very much. Many times he had asked her if he might quit his high school work and get a position where he might help bear the burdens of the family. Hut it was the mother’s fondest hope to see her son well-educated. so she had each time replied. No. lad. You must not think of it. We will make ends meet somehow.” The lad slowly ate his supper and then went off to his room. He remained there all evening, and only came down long enough to bid his mother good night. Next morning he was astir very early. The mother heard him go whistling out of the house, and through the gate long before breakfast-time, and she smiled to herself, murmuring “God bless him.” At breakfast-time he returned to the house with red cheeks and a bright light in his eyes. As he noticed his mother’s questioning gaze, he laughingly said, No. mother, not now. I'll tell vou some time.” And for a long time he kept iiis secret and kept it well. Every morning he was un at davlight and did not return until it was time for school. As soon as : hcol was out in the evening the boy came home, changed clothes and hurried Late autumn came and along with it eame the mother’s birthday. The birthday dinner was a plain affair, prepared bv the mother’s own hands. However, she was not as cheerful as usual. Mother and son understood each other perfectly. The boy did not need to be told the cause of her sadness. It was only three weeks until the mortgage was due a id thus far the woman did not see how Ih-v were going to keep their home. The a-1 looked at her face, and somehow she seemed a few years older today. However, not a word of her worries was snoken before the boy. “What a brave litt’e mother! he thought. Shortly after dinner, the boy asked his mother to take a walk with him. She protested at first, but as he insisted, she ' ielded to his des'-e. Slowly they made their way to the seashore, and to an old fisherman’s hut which had long been deserted. The mother eyed her son with a look of wonder as he led her directly to the cabin. On entering, the lad closed the door and. removing a brick from the old flrenlace. brought from underneath an old tin box. This he quickly opened and handed to his mother, saying. Mother. here is my secret.” The mother looked into the box and to her amazement saw a handful of pearls, which would be worth several hundred dollars, more than enough for the mortgage. But where—? she started to ask, and the lad pointed to a pile of mussel shells on the floor. “I gathered the mussels in a sea-cave not far away, in which the water is very shallow. It was hard work, but it has paid. And now, mother, dear, they are all for your birthday present. We will sell them and we shall not have to worry about the mortgage any more. And,” the lad's eyes lit with a happy gleam, “now 1 can go to the University next year. There are lots more in the cave!” Tears were in the eyes of the mother as she looked up at her son and said. You’re just like your father, lad. I am proud of you.” And once again the sun was fast sinking into the western waters and the birds were living to their nests in the distant woodland as the happy mother and son made their way toward the little white cottage, which they might always call their own. Leonore Of The Mountains BY AMY RICE SECOND PRIZE STORY HE RAIN fell in torrents and the wind blew it dashing against the windows of the lonely cottage situated far up on the mountain side. A boy and a girl sat before the log fire which burned brightly, somewhat dispelling the gloom of the outside “Leonore, I wish you loved books as I do, and would study and try to learn something. I just live another life when I am studying and reading good books. You won’t even try to like them. Come now! Let’s study this English lesson together.” No Ralph, I don't care about books. I love the outdoors. You see I am so strong and well, while you are weakly and have that cough so you can’t enjoy climbing over these mountains or jumping across the narrow gullies. I am always going to stay here, while you, Ralph—what do you want to do?” “I, sister? I want to go to high school in some big city and then to college. Oh! I can just see that high school and college now, and the books that I could study all for myself with someone who really knows to help me. Wouldn't that be just grand? But that will never lie. for 1 am not strong enough to work and mother can never get enough money to send me, and I wouldn’t go without you, sister, anyway. So there! I suppose that settles it.” 1 was up to see the new oil well today. They were looking for Mr. Rand, the president, any time. I love my mountains! I never, never want to leave them,” spoke the impulsive and nature-loving Leonore. “I wish I had a new book to read, said Ralph. Mildred Long promised to lend me one the other day. “I will bring it, for I am going to take some sewing there for mother tonight. I must be going now, before it gets much darker. I will take Milton’s Paradise Regained’ over to Mildred for you. You know she wants it to read.” Leonore lighted an old lantern and started on her stormy journey, with the book tucked safely under her arm. The rain beat in her face and the feeble lantern flame would die down and almost go out as a fresh gust cf wind would come down the mountain bringing with it more rain. The light would then Hare up, and Leonore could see the road before her. She kept steadily on until she came to the iron bridge over Deep Gulch. “Why, it’s nearly all gone,” she exclaimed. What is that?” and, leaning forward. she listened for the sound which had caught her ear. “A machine is coming! Oh! The bridge. What if they wouldn’t see it? What would happen?” Leonore made her way quickly up the steep mountain side, until she came to a small path. Running along this she came to a narrow place in the gulch, leaped across, and went down the mountain side. The book was still clasped tightly in her hand. Would she be in time? Finally she reached the Hat rock on the safe side of the destroyed bridge. Panting and breathless, she stood and listened. Nearer and nearer came the sound of the machine, until suddenly a-round the curve in the mountains two great lights appeared. Leonore swung her lantern from side to side, but its feeble rays did not penetrate far through the storm. Nearer and nearer came the machine, its occupants unaware of the great danger before them. Faster and faster Leonore swung the lantern. Would they see it? On the machine came, until only a few yards from the yawning chasm. “What shall I do? muttered Leonore. Then she remembered the book in her hand. Throwing it with all her strength, she hurled the book straight towards the machine. The energy brought about by the despair behind it sent it through the windshield. Well, am I dreaming? The man became suddenly aware of a great pitfall ready to receive the front wheels of the machine. He swerved the machine to one side, towards Leonore. The driver became aware of another presence (for the first time). But it was too late. The guard on the machine pushed her steadily until the man saw a frantic groping figure, a scared face, a scream, a splash, and all was silence. Leonore was with her mountains, never more to leave them. The machine stopped, and the man sat 1 aralyzed with horror and fear. Then mechanically, he picked up the book and read, “Leonore More, Mountain Hut. Mr. Hand, for it was he who drove the ar, found Ralph and his mother, and told them about the terrible accident. In an effort to make amends for the sacrifice Leonore had made in warning him, Mr. Rand took Ralph and his mother with him to the city, where Ralph was placed in a hospital, and where with proper nursing and medicine he became a well boy. Mr. Rand sent him through high school and college and he later became professor of languages in the college in that western city, but he never forgot his brown-eyed sister away among the mountains which she loved and which she never wanted to leave. mum Eftitiirial £ taff Hollis Parry...............

It was founded by Col. James Hughes, an attorney, whose wife was a sister of Prof. W. Williams Mather. He was succeeded in the editorship by Dr. Jesse W. Laird, Thomas R. Mathews, George W. Miller, F. M. Keith, James Tripp, Davis Mackley, John H. Mackley, James M. Lively, R. U. Wilson, T. C. Gerken, and Daniel W. Williams. Dr. Laird was the first to write of rural walks and rambles, Mathews, who spelled his name with one “t,” introduced random notes, Mackley, the War ed-tor, extended them and introduced special articles, and the paper has been unique in that respect for two generations. Hon. Thomas L. Hughes conducted a department in the paper for many years, and W. W. Mlther, Dr. Daniel Hoffman, J. W. Longbon, Hillborn C. Miller, Dr. William Phillips, Thomas M. Varley, A. V. Evans, Virgil Evans, Dan T. Davis, I. B. Brookins, Arch Martin, J. J. McKitterick, and nearly all the thinkers of the town have contributed many valuable articles from time to time. Many who have succeeded in life elsewhere were on the paper's staff for a period, such as P. F. Powers, a leading journalist in Michigan, Ihomas M. Varley of Columbus, Elmer G. Hull, editor of a paper in northern Ohio, Joshua H. Williams, who learned the art preservative in its pressroom, now at Fostoria, and Ben Ames Williams who started on his career, as devil in the office, learning to run the press, set type, do jobwork, and took his first steps in writing. He was also acting editor for four months in 1910. The paper was a leading factor in securing the incorporation of Jackson in 1847, in starting the first bank in 1851, the editor J. W. Laird becoming cashier, in bringing the railroad to Jackson in 1853, in boosting the building of the new Court House, the Springfield, Jackson Pomeroy Railroad, and nearly all the other important enterprises in the town’s history. Its editor helped to bring the first lecture course here, and to establish the library. The paper enjoys the distinction of being the only one north of Mason and Dixon's line destroyed by soldiers of the Southern Confederacy under Gen. John Morgan in 1863. Today it gives the people the cleanest and most accurate news, it boosts home talent and industry, it prints the best special articles, it sends out the most artistic job printing, it reaches more readers in more regions, it takes a kindlier interest in boys and girls, takes a bolder stand for all good causes, and yields the palm to none, in all kinds of good works that make for prosperity, happiness and righteousness. 1 ■ • 1
