Page Five THE OLD FAMILIAR FACES BY CHARLES LAMB I have had playmates, I have had companions. In my days of childhood, in my joyful schooldays; All, all are gone, the old familiar faces. I have been laughing, I have been carousing, Drinking late, sitting late, with my bosom cronies; All, all are gone, the old familiar faces. I loved a love once, fairest among women; Closed are her doors on me, I must not see her— All, all are gone, the old familiar faces. I have a friend, a kinder friend has no man; Like an ingrate, I left my friend abruptly; Left him, to muse on the old familiar faces. Ghost-like I paced round the haunts of my child- ■ hood, Earth seemed a desert I was bound to traverse, Seeking to find the old familiar faces. Friend of my bosom, thou more than a brother, Why wert not born in my father’s dwelling So might we talk of the old familiar faces— How some have died, and some they have left me. And some are taken from me; all are departed; All. all are gone, the old familiar faces. Page Seven H5BBSSSSS5 I ORDER OF BOOKS I—Introduction II—Faculty III— Senior ..

In the first year of the chosen four, We accomplished quite a lot; And each one toward the goal, With pep and vigor fought. With “Loyalty and Perseverance” We stood the rugged test, And gave an entertainment. Which was ranked among the best. The question of the Bonus Bill Was put before the states; And we conquered the Sophomore class. In the interscholastic debates. When the second year began, We started to work anew; Studies were growing difficult, So we all had plenty to dc. We had some honor students And some sturdy basketeers; So we showed we were behind them, With our High School yells and cheers. When the third year rolled around, We all worked long and fast, For the Junior - Senior banquet Would soon be here at last. We gave a picture show, And the Junior Carnival, But our play named “Seventeen” Was liked the best of all. Finally the fourth year came, We were nearing the end of our goal, And we all strove with might and main. To gain the longed foy scroll. With plays and entertainments And athletics of all sorts, We’ve made a real good record In both our work and sports. But now that these four years are past And our High School life is don°. Let us keep striving and working. Till our highest aim is won. CLASS DAY For the first time in the history of Jackson High School a day was set aside in Commencement Week as Class Day for the graduating class. On May 25, 1927 the Seniors and their guests, the Juniors and the faculty enjoyed a delightful frolic at Canter Caves. A quite original program was given in contrast to the more serious atmosphere of Commencement. The class prophecy was presented in a clever way by Elvarie Jacobs. Following this a unique class will was given by Elizabeth Jones. To the great sorrow of all Seniors, the dearly beloved English Literature Book was interred with solemn rituals and ushered into Purgatory through the consoling words of Reverend George Roderick. He was ably assisted by the gravediggers, chief mourners, and all bereaved Seniors. We had as our guests the doubles of the faculty in the personages of members of the Senior class. This afforded great delight to everyone, especially the teachers who at last attained their one desire — “O wad some Power the giftie gie us, To see oursels as ithers see us!” The statistics of the class of “27” at last revealed to the mystified Seniors the “why and what” of the questions they were required to answer several weeks ago. This was a collaboration of facts concerning members of the class and given by Fred Carlisle. The program came to a close when Harry Brown the President of the Senior class presented to Maurice Lee Schellenger, the Junior President, a large shoe symbolizing the abdication of the upper class in favor of its successors, the Juniors. We only hope that they can successfully follow in our footsteps! ? ? The two classes and their teachers next enjoyed a picnic dinner. The committee in charge of Class Day was composed of Chairman, Avanelle Eisnaugle, Elvarie Jacobs, Chloe Kuhner, Harry Hamilton and Heber Moore assisted by Miss Sargent and Miss Folger. Page Thirty-Four REMEMBER K. H. S From the time you graduate until the day you are leaders in the world of affairs don’t forget the high school from which you graduated. When you gain the top of the ladder and are.still routing the obstacles placed in your path don’t forget that old K. H. S. deserves a lot of credit for your success. For instance would you have acquired the ambition to obtain a college education and make a mark for yourself in the world if you hadn’t gone to K. H. S.? Would you have made the friendships, possible by the intimate student life and not found in schools of larger attendance, if you had not gone to K. H. S.? Would you have had the good times you’ve had in the past few years if you had not gone to K. H. S.? Some say these opportunities exist in every school; but they are wrong. In other schools there is not the general good fellowship which is characteristic in K. H. S. All schools do not have that companionship between students and faculty that is found in K. H. S. Talk with students, representatives of all types and sizes of high schools, and you will find these facts are true. Be proud you are from K. H. S.! • A Graduate of ’27 Page Thirty-Five PROGRAM Fifty-First Annual COMMENCEMENT Kinnison Ffigh School Orchestra Selections ................................. K. H. S.

A color scheme of yellow and white, the Junior class colors, was carried out in the decorations. Large baskets of daffodils and tall yellow candles formed a fitting background for the tables. At the close of the banquet a very fine program was enjoyed with Miss Folger of the High School faculty acting as toastmistress. Dancing was enjoyed until a late hour, music being furnished by an orchestra from out of town. The Junior - Senior Banquet is an annual affair and is eagerly looked forward to by the members of the two classes. It's great success for the past few years has been due to the tireless efforts of Miss Lewis and Miss Price, advisors of Junior class affairs and this year due also to the Chairmen of the two committees, Alma Loney, Social Committee and Donald Irons, Decorating Committee.

Page Forty-Nine SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY On September 7, 1925 the members of the Class of '29 began their tempestuous career as students of Kinnison High School. The Freshman class, one hundred strong, was placed under the guidance of Mr. Ladd, Miss Martin, and Mr. Keeler. A class meeting was held early in the year and the officers elected were: Margaret Stephenson, President; Virginia Smith, Vice President; Margaret McCoy Secretary; Elizabeth Kraatz, Treasurer; the girls having the ruling power. Scarlet and Silver were selected for the colors, and the Carnation for the flower, and “Labor Conquers All Things for the motto. Near the end of the year a grand Freshman Party was held in the High School Building. This was well attended and the party was a great success. Thus our Freshman year closed. It was a very successful year indeed, for from Freshman Ranks came Football, Basketball, and Track stars, A students, and what is most important of all, The Sophomore Class. At the beginning of the 1926 - 27 school year The Sophomore Class,now promoted from the lowly Freshman ranks, selected the following members for their leaders: Alvin Shick, President; Marshall Carlisle, Vice President; Thomas Davis, Secretary; Carl Baehr, Treasurer. Later the class decided to retain the former colors Scarlet and Silver, and flower, Carnation, and motto, “Labor Conquers All Things . Now at the close of our Sophomore Year we find that The Sophomore Class has been a leader in Athletics, Scholarship, and Activities, having had varsity men in Football, Basketball, and Track, A students, and members of the Glee clubs, Hi-Y Club, Industrial Arts Club, and Home Economics Club, and having won the Inter Class Basketball Championship Cup. Truly a remarkable record and one to be continued throughout our High School career. Thus we continue with our motto, “Labor Conquers All Things to make the Class of '29 have a real, worthwhile, and enviable history. —Eddie Claar '29 tn fcrcrC - ---------------- THE FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS Charles Cavett, President Ada Merle Stephenson, V.

We w'ere not accustomed to the surroundings which we found. Everything w'as different from what we had previously experienced. Therefore our first problem was to become thoroughly acquainted with this new' type of school life. As the days went by we were introduced to many different activities. First w e assembled and elected our officers. Class colors and flower were our next consideration. Then we were invited to join the Glee Clubs. After this athletics loomed into view and many of us wrere eager to try our skill. Several Freshman Classes formed Science Clubs. In the spring w e joined with the other classes in presenting a stunt. Later we had our class party. We have all been enthusiastic about our school w’ork and activities. We art now looking forward to next year when we will prove our worth as Sophomores. HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA V ’• i 5 I v ?. 0 v if. a h Violin Saxophone Trumpet ...

Sport Editor OUR APPRECIATION The members of the Skeleton staff wish to express thanks and appreciation for the willingness with which the students and local business men aided us in making this years Skeleton a bigger and better paper. The student body responded better than ever before when our business manager called for subscriptions, and at no time did we find difficulty in interesting local business men in advertising in our paper. With two such groups as these behind one it would be almost impossible for a paper to fail if the right attitude is displayed by the individuals of the staff. It would hardly be possible to complete this article without mentioning one who has been the director of this news staff. Miss Sargent was appointed faculty advisor, and the staff rejoices that such a capalble instructor was chosen to supervise our publication. In closing this year’s staff wishes to thank all students, teachers, and advertisers who have been responsible for the success of this year’s Skeleton.

This year Jackson’s negative team, composed of Maurice Lee Schellenger, Glendon Steele, Sanford Keairns, and Charles Davis, met Ironton at Ironton and won. The affirmative team, composed of Elizabeth Jones, Fred Carlisle, Mary Albert, and George Roderick debated Portsmouth at Jackson and lost by a very narrow margin. A new system of judging was introduced this year, the decision being given orally by one judge. The question for debate this year was, “Resolved: that the direct primary method of nominating state and local candidates should be abolished.” A great amount of preparation was necessary and the teams deserve great praise for the able manner in which the subject was discussed. Mr. Henson also deserves much credit for the excellent showing made by our teams. As coach, Mr. Henson has always developed teams of high caliber.

Our Glee Club has many accomplished singers, who had leading parts in the operetta; Clora Kuhner, Elvarie Jacobs, Margaret Watson, George Parkinson, Edward Michael and Charles Chapman. The following is a synopsis of the Operetta: Jonas H. Pennington, an American millionaire pickle maufacturer, with his daughter, June, arrives in Vienna amidst preparations for the annual carnival. To his consternation he finds Jones, his advertising expert, advertising Pennington’s Peter Piper Pickles too well. An old acquaintance, Lady Vivian, a wealthy Englishwoman, also arrives on her annual quest in search of her daughter, who was lost near Vienna at carnival time when a baby. Kinski, the pompous police chief, plots to substitute the lost child of Lady Vivian and marry her for the fortune. A band of Gypsies visits the carnival led by Jigo, the chieftain, and his supposed daughter, Ilona. Events lead all to the Gypsy camp, where a magic pool reveals the face of Lady Vivian’s daughter. Arthur Crefont, poor artist, wins recognition of his art and also the hand of June Pennington. Lady Vivian consents to become Mrs. Pennington; Kinski’s plot is exposed; Ilona is restored to her mother and Jones is rewarded with success in his campaign for the hand of Ilona. Page Seventy |gy ------rvTsSrrr----- i SCHOOL EXHIBIT On March 17 and 18, the High School gave an exhibit of their accomplishments of the year. The Commercial, Manual Training and Home Ec departments displayed their ability by working as they do at school;—The Commercial department by having their typewriters; the Home Ec by sewing; and the Manual Training their work tables. An interesting display was that of the pictures and designs that the commercial students had worked out by the use of their typewriters. The Latin Department under the supervision of Miss Catherine Martin, presented three very interesting and effective scenes. They were as follows: Sophomore Class — Caesar's Ghost Junior Class — Cataline's Trial Senior Class — Apollo and the Muses A miniature of Caesar's famous bridge, made by several of the Sophomores was also a feature of the Latin Department. The English and History Departments under the direction of Miss Sargent and Miss Price gave “The Dream of Fair Women . “The Wonder Hat was presented by the Public Speaking Class. During the entertainment, Mr. Russell Jones introduced the letter men of the Industrial Arts Basketball Team to the audience. STUNT NIGHT Stunt Night, known as “The High School Frolic was given by the four classes Freshman and Sophomore, Junior and Senior, at the Grand Opera House, April 22, 1927. A prize was given for the best stunt presented which the Freshmen won by a small margin over the Sophomore class. All were very clever and proved to make a very interesting evening for the audience. The Mixed Chorus opened the frolic with “The Clang of the Forge which was (Continued on Next Page) Page Seventy-One STUNT NIGHT (Continued from Preceding Page) very effective with George Steele and George Abraham striking the anvils. Edd e Michael sang “The Clang of the Hammer’ and the Girl’s Glee Club sang a very clever piece “Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree”. Also there were two duets “The Sp.lining Song” sung by Ruth Sheward and Mary Katherine Will which was sung at the middle of the performance and “The Pirates” sung by Edward Barlow and William l avis. 'the lUi.ts were as touows: Freshman — 25 Years Hence Sophomore — Puppet Wedding Juniors — A Dream Seniors — A Human Operation HI-Y CLUB MINSTREL The stage of the Grand Opera House resembled an up-to-date cafeteria Thursday evening, April 7th, when the curtain call sounded for the beginning of one of vne finest performances of the season. All decked in the well known regalia of the minstrel players, it gave a very pleasing appearance. The students had worked feverishly and unceasingly upon rehearsals for six weeks, under the direction of Vernon D. Keeler, Club Leader, with Miss Vivian Wi.-lis taking care of the musical parts. In the first event, the solos and choruses were wfell received, being aided by a seven piece orchestra, composed of: Piano—David Pew; Violin—Hayes Moore; Saxaphones—William Davis and George Horton; Trumpet—Lewis Davis; Drums— Dwight Nichols and Banjo—Vernon Keeler. The crowd was kept in a continual uproar by the witty remarks and cross fire carried on between the Proprietor Maurice Lee Schellenger, and the waiters, Harry Shick, Gordon Reynolds, Charles Davis, and Alvin Shick, with Eddie Michael and Eddie Claar as Bellhops. Solo parts were given by John Corn, Sam Carpenter, Holland Arthur, Eddie Michael, George Parkinson, Elvarie Jacobs and Clora Kuhner. During the Olio Mildred James and Virginia Washam proved themselves to be splendid entertaineis, as jolly piccaninnies while Harry Hamilton and John Howell as Jews gave some real Jewish acts. Last, but not least, Charles Davis and Alvin Shick in a selling campaign, gave such an exhibition as to cause one to wonder always what might be more humorous in the next few words. The closing event, a meeting of the Booster club of Blackvillc, showed how a real Booster Club functions, with all the members running for office and alternately speaking for their rights, it wras some problem as to which one might be picked as any individual star. The persons w’ho figured in the famous club meeting were: Gordon Reynolds, Eddie Michael, Charles Davis, Lewis Davis, Max Miller, Eddie Claar, Carl Martin, Alvin Shick, Duwane Whittaker, George Steele, Sloan Davis, and Harry Shick. The Special orchestra (The Blackville Colored) improvised for the occasion and which made such a hit, was composed of, Organ—Edwin Brown; Harp—Duwane Whittaker; Trumpet, Kazoo—David Jones; Banjv,—Carl Martin and drums—Carl Baehr. The show was somewhat different from any minstrel ever given in Jackson, as instead of having all male cast, a number of girls took part in the show, adding a touch of refinement and beauty which could not be secured in any other way. Those persons appearing in the chorus not mentioned above were Earl Plummer, Florence Peters, Cereta Arthur, Mary Albert, Avenelle Elliott, Orville Evans, Audrey Jacobs, Pauline Rogers, Narsa Lewis and Carol Eubanks. The Minstrel performance was the first ever attempted by the High School but with the talent which w'as used, and with careful training, proved to be wfell w’orth the time spent, in heir r able to please such an audience as was on hand to await the result. Page Seventy-Two THE RETURN OF THE CARDINAL A lonely blade of grass crept slowly from its winter home brightening the awakening world with its color. Then others slyly peeped forth covering the world with a bright green cloak. A yellow river sallied forth after the bright refreshing rains and added more color to that already beautiful landscape. A bud, a blossom and o’erhead a deep blue sky decorated with fleecy white clouds. Ah listen — it is a rich melody, faint but sweet, and harmonious — up in the heavens it seems — so light — so beautiful. A twitter, a flash of crimson and low in a leafing willow alighted a carefree, joyful Cardinal from his Northward journey. How sad it is that such a beautiful life must be interrupted. The desolate, forlorn, thoughtless one brings such melancholy to the world and never does he cease destroying the harmonic chord of life. A wretched and miserable hunter, malicious because of his failure during the day, silently approached with a hatred for everything within his sight. Angered by the constant joyful twitter he parted the bushing willows and arranged his “voice of death.” He slowly aimed and placed his finger on the lever that had announced so many fates. ii i There was a crackling of fallen twigs and through the willows appeared an old white headed fisherman passing on his way to the river bank. A shot, but its fatal intentions were not entirely fulfilled. The Cardinal fell fluttering to the ground. Disgusted and ashamed the hunter fled when the feeble old man, tottering with age, rescued the wounded one from the tall grass. Sitting down he attempted to calm the wild bird which was violently struggling for freedom. He used every easy method in soothing its frightened soul. He soothed its feathers and carefully petted it but the wild are wild by birth and they are not tamed in a short time. Then he set about making a miniature splint to mend its broken wing. He carried it home that night although it still resisted his friendship. He fed it but it refused to eat; as days passed however, such resistance turned into friendship. Daily the old one took the Cardinal, glowing with youth, to the river fishing. Now it would eat from his hand and steal bait from his bait-can and sing to him in his solitude. Closer and closer grew the friendship. Often the two could be seen sitting at sunset along the river bank, the sun casting its golden rays across the waters beautifully tinting the fleecy white hair of the old fisherman with the Cardinal resting upon his shoulder and the willows behind seemed to add to the picture. Nesting time came and went and the crippled Cardinal with the aid of its mate and greatest friend succeeded in raising a family of four. His wing strengthened and then it came time to migrate to the land of the beautiful orange-blossoms. They separated each with a sad heart and a feeling of final farewell. H (Continued on Next Page) i i Page Seventy-Three THE RETURN OF THE CARDINAL (Continued from Preceding Page) Spring: came again. The old man with great difficulty tottered to the river daily to fish, often thinking of his old friend who in the interim was struggling northward less easily than before, falling often to rest. But he never lost hope. The sun arose and sank with its ruddy glows until that day came. His hair had grown whiter and his hearing had almost failed him. He was seated on the river bank one day when he heard a familiar call so very faint but clear. Then there was a clutch on his shoulder and a feathery mass rested against his cheek. The Cardinal had not forgotten. For a long time the two talked things over between themselves. Both were extremely happy. The fisherman’s heart beat like the tick of a watch. The Cardinal snuggled close to his breast. Then after a while it stole softly to the bait-can and began to devour its contents. There was a sharp report and a flutter of wings. The voice of death had spoken that fate. The old man’s heart fluttered also. He gathered it to his heart. The Crimson blood saturated his clothes. Then as one last expression of friendship the Cardinal utte.ed a faint beautiful note and gave a last flap of its crippled wing. It was fatal. It struck the heart of the old man as an arrow from the bow of death itself. He swayed and fell but still he clutched that crimson spot to his breast and the waters r.ppled that sad funeral march, “The Return of the Cardinal.” —H. Glendon Steele. KEEP WORKING Never look for the easiest job to be had Nor shirk every moment you can. For we’d think every man in the world had gone mad, If he were this sort of a man. But don’t smuggle your way through the world as you go; Be upright and honest and true. For in time nature itself will show. It is far the best thing for you. Keep pushing your way through this wonderful land; Get as far as you possibly can; Let Nature lead you along by the hand And you’ll soon be a much better man. Just go at your tasks in the very best way. And accomplish them one by one; Then after you’ve finished them, you can say, “I have all of my work well done.” —Iva Steele. Page Seventy-Four ! SOLILOQUY OF A BABY IN A THEATRE “Well—here we are at last, after having two blowouts on the way to town. Pop sure was mad. It’s a wonder we couldn’t get here earlier for now, as usual, I ’spose Pop will have a dickens of a time tryin’ to find me an’ Mom an’ Jimmie some seats. Oh gosh! They’ve put me on Pop’s lap. I’d lots rather sit on Mom’s ’cause it’s the softest, but I guess I won’t raise a fuss now. I might though, if they leave me here very long. I guess they think babies don’t know anything, but I’d like to tell ’em a few things, especially about the way they let those toothless old ladies joggle me up and down. Those pictures don’t interest me—I’d rather look around. Ooh! Ooh! What a round and shiny bald head. I wish I had a big, juicy tomato. I’ 1 hit him and make it squash jus’ like I saw Jimmie hit Mr. Peters yesterday. Mom told Pop she couldn’t see very good ’cause that old maid next door, Mrs. Bobkin, is sitting right in front of her and everyone knows how she puffs her hair way out with wigs so’s she can catch a man. Mom told Pop the other day that she went over to borrow a cup of sugar and that her wigs were on the table and that she had real stringy gray hair. Aren’t grown-ups funny? Goo! Goo! Mom’s scoldin’ Jimmy for pulling one of her curls off. I’m tired sitting on Pop’s lap—guess I’ll let ’em know I’m here. Wha-wah! wah! ! ! (sniffle-sob-sob) Wah! Thank goodness Mom is taking me. I’m getting sleepy. Everytime I go any-placc I go to sleep and I like to look around so well. Gee! Jimmy’s asleep already. I can haidiy keep awake. I wish I had ..... an Jimmy had. ice ..... cream cone .... like I’m ......... going to ...............rgj.—tr Page Seventy-Five IF I WERE A FRESHMAN • It is really very easy to say what one would do if he had it to do over again, but the catch is, if you had it to do over again — would you do it any different than you had done it? To be better or not to be better — that’s the ? Now that is quite a complicated question but anyhow you know what I mean. I believe the first thing I should do if I were a Freshman again would be to join the Glee Club — not just going in for chorus work, but for solos, duets, etc. Fair readers, you do not know how much you have missed in failing to hear my melodious voice reverberating through the magnificent halls of K. H. S. (It's perhaps just as well you don’t). I would also join the Science Club. Nothing would please me more than to take a nice little trip to the telephone office, standpipe, or the greenhouse instead of having a regular session in the schoolroom. I would also try for the Osky Wow Staff. When a Freshman, this distinction particularly would seem to rub off a little of my greenness in the eyes of my upper class-men. The Skeleton staff would also be worthy of my condescending notice. I could at least hold a rib in place or a phalanges. Another activity I would attempt to participate in would be the Freshmen stunt for the High School Frolic. I am sure people would be more than delighted to see me performing. Ahem! This indeed is not any super egotism, but just a realization of my ability. Last, but not least, I would study. Not just “think” I was studying but really try to make excellent progress in my work. This should be my greatest aim. In conclusion, casting all jokes aside, I think I would have kept up my piano lessons so that I might have been at least assistant High School pianist. How often have I envied the position of our pianists. Then, too, I should have endeavored from the first day of my Freshman year to have impressed my teachers with a deep seriousness of my school responsibilities. Prospective Freshmen — are your pink ears listening? Vamp your teachers with one hundred percent attention the first year and then all will be easy. —Nina Summers 27 Page Seventy-Six A MAN READING THE NEWSPAPER “Can’t you see I’m busy.

The first of the flowers is the violet, Its petals soft by the dew are wet. The lily, rose and lilac too, Are also bathed by the morning dew. The primrose and the cowslip white, Are sweet as the air on a summer night. But the flowers of springtime bloom anew, And each brings token of love so true. But in the fall as birds southward fly, The flowers one by one wither and die. • —Iva Steele Page Seventy-Seven -----.--rs: I LOVE ’EM ALL BY CHARLES S. KINNISON Alumnus of K. H. S.

Nor does he have to travel over the world to find success. It is not where you are but what you are that counts. If you are a lazy, idle person waiting: for good luck to come to you, you will surely be unsuccessful. But if you are the opposite, an industrious person eager to find good luck, there is no reason why you should not be successful. It matters not where you are. Because someone whom you knew found success in another city is no reason why you should go to that city. If you stay at home you will probably be more successful than if you start out “to seek your fortune” as in the fairy tales of yore. But what is success? Success is really fitting yourself to the needs of humanity. Do you see a need of humanity? If so, work in the direction of supplying that need. If it is supplied, then, you will have attained success. “Rome was not built in a day.” Success cl, inot be attained in a day nor can it be attained by idleness. There is an opportunity for every one no matter who he may be. Very often this opportunity is overlooked in search of greater prospects. Rich or poor, black or white, every boy or girl has the opportunity of being a successful man or woman. Booker T. Washington was of so low a station that he had no name. But is he not now considered one of the greatest negroes that has ever lived? Abraham Lincoln struggled to manhood in the frontier states, working by day and studying by night to attain success. And did he not attain it? These are only two examples of successful persons, but there are many, many others who have been as successful as they have. Not only in America but all over the world is this true. Boys and girls of today think more of pleasures than of their life’s work. We all have a future and those who endeavor to make their future worth while will have nothing to regret. A very good motto to live up to, is “Do your best.” If you do your best in everything, nothing more is required. —Helen Jones. E s Page Seventy-Nine Tl THE OLD ARMCHAIR BECOMES GARRULOUS “What was that?” “What was what?” “Did you hear a noise?” “No.” “Well do be quiet. I fear it is our mistress.” (Ten moments of silence intervene.) “I’m quite sure all is well now,” breaks the silence of the grandfather’s clock. “Yes, Yes, I think it was your imagination anyway. I just wonder what pretty Miss Priscilla might say if she by chance should sometimes hear us converse. We must be careful and keep on our guard,” replied the old arm chair from its corner. “Oh why throw a wet blanket on our enjoyment friend chair, just resolve that we shan’t be caught and we won’t. Say, by the way friend chair what was the matter with you last night, I tried ever so hard to waken you and tell you what I saw but you pretended to be asleep. I really believe you were playing possum. How about it, eh?” “Oh I heard you but I was all in. How I do wish Priscilla’s beau would diet. He must weigh three hundred or my legs deceive me. I thought my legs would drop from beneath me and was getting ready to cry out, ‘Get off you big cow, or you’ll break my legs,’ but just then he concluded to go.” “Yes, yes, I noticed your sad predicament and tried to call the young man’s attention to the hour. Well I was successful. Priscilla looked at me in alarm and exclaimed, ‘I do declare how time flies’.” “Thanks to you, old man. I guess it’s my age. I am getting squeaky, my legs are giving way, my arms grow ugly, I am quite worn out. Oh dear! it makes me so unhappy,” and with this the old arm chair burst into a torrent of tears. “Well, friend chair, as it is with you, it is with all of us. I, too, have felt age creep upon me, but really I don’t like to speak of it. My eyes grow dim, my hands are tired, I will no doubt be replaced by an alarm clock. I just wonder if anyone will miss me when I am gone. I have seen much courtship. Yes, I played a part in the courtship of Martha and George Washington. But alas! I, too, shall not last much longer.” “Well, friend clock, we can sympathize with each other. Can’t we? Say this is a secret, pssst—st— did you hear? You didn’t. Well I shall tell it aloud, but do keep it quiet for if the household should suspect my age they would probably have me examined and out I would go. My secret is that a portion of my arm is ready to fall off. But don’t tell. I enjoy sitting in this quaint old room. And you know what I------- Hush! I hear footsteps,” and the auaint old furniture became silent. —Pauline Rogers, ’27 Page Eighty GRIT Grit is a small word but its effects are large. It symbolizes the tenacity of the true pioneer spirit and hearkens back to the earliest days of civilization when holds of people were swayed one way or another by the grit of a single person. That indomitable spirit is present in all walks of life from the meanest labor that a man can perform to the highest executive position that a polished gentleman can attain. Grit has had its effect upon everyone, either directly or indirectly. For instance; what would the progress of our nation, now the leader in world affairs, have been had our forefathers been a set of weaklings? But they had the grit and the ambition and the implements so they set the foundation for our remarkable present day economic system. Where would the men of today, those captains of industry and men of science and the arts, all leaders in their respective lines of work, be if they had not had the determination, the grit to see their plan through? Did they not have to pass many an anxious hour when all was at stake before final success insured them of fame and fortune? There is no greater display of grit in the athletic world than there is in a game between two football teams when a good clean, hardplaying team is being steadily beaten; then you can see the determination, that last lingering hope, written plainly on Ihe'.r faces. They are willing to be carried off the field exhausted rather than let their opponents score over them. During a war in which Turkey and Great Britain were pitted against each other, grit was the deciding factor. After a long seige of one of Turkey’s strongholds England gave up the hope of taking it and accordingly withdrew from their position. It was learned later that had England been two minutes longer in withdrawing, the fortified sector would have surrendered. The Turks were ready to send a messenger to announce their surrender when they saw the Eritish evacuating their sector. And so, as we see such evidences of grit we should always keep before our minds the fact that we should stick to our duties as long as possible because we do not know what the next minute may have in store for us Charles Chapman ATTITUDE Two high school students were talking one day. So I stopped to listen and hear what they’d say. John said to Jack in a voice so clear, “What studies are you taking next year?” Jack replied, “To me it’s a mystery, But I want to take Civics, English, and History, Because many time I have heard people say That those studies are easiest in every way.” John said, “Jack don’t think too quick. Remember Latin and Arithmetic. Think of Biology and Geometry too, And think of the good Public Speaking would do.” Jack shrugged his shoulders and brushing his hair, Replied, “Oh well, what do I care! In fact, I would really be glad, If there weren’t any school to be had.” “Well,” said John, “I’ll give my attention To each of the preceding studies I’ve mentioned. And as through life’s pathway each leads. You can guess which one fails and which one succeeds. John today holds high office of State And now Jack’s life I’ll relate. Instead of a position of higher rank, Jack is sliding down the opposite bank. —lva Steele Reading left to right:—Slavens, guard; Eubanks, tackle; Coll, end; Abrams, guard Davis, tackle; DeLong, guard; Shick, end; Barlowe, quarterback; Carpenter, half; Whitaker, center; Bloss, halfback; Hughes, tackle; Abraham, halfback; Jones, halfback; Wilson, end; Wykle, tackle; Smith, guard; Shick, center; Davis, guard; Reigle, tackle; Ridge, fullback; Evans, fullback; Reynolds, end (Captain); McCoy, end; Brown, tackle.

H. S. had a most successful season. Though pitted against the best elevens in southeastern Ohio, they constantly outclassed their rivals. This aggregation was composed of no outstanding stars, but by excellent teamwork and aggressive playing, a real combination was developed. The team was of medium size and very fast. The weather was often unfavorable, but its effect was little noticed. In reviewing the season, the spirit and determination, which accompanied every contest, victory or defeat, can be easily seen. The first game was staged at home, with Rutland Hi as opponents. The teams were evenly matched and neither one could score. Captain Reynolds and Jenkins were the bright lights. Our first trip was to Gallipolis on a stormy day. The River City lads were played off their feet in three fourths of the game, but succeeded in blocking and recovering a punt behind K. H. S. goal for a touchdown. This was a tough one to lose. The jinx could not follow long and we encountered Nelsonville on our own field and gave them a severe trouncing, thirty to nothing. Our backfield just ran wild. Wilson at end also made a name for himself. Having journeyed to Oak Hill the next week we met the enemy and they were ours, fifteen to naught. The game was- rather slow, marred by rain. The two following games were the darkest hours of the season. We were overwhelmed in both. The first was with Ironton, here and by a timely execution of the aerial game, they won by a close score, nineteen to thirteen. We distinctly outplayed them on ground tactics. Then for the first and last time of the season we were decidedly outclassed at Portsmouth in a game played in a sea of mud. We could not combat the heavy scarlet and blue gridders, equipped with mud cleats, and went bravely down to defeat thirty-one to “zero”. The return game with Oak Hill was a walk-away affair. K. H. S. triumphing thirty-seven to six. The line-up was switched and it worked marvelously. Ridge, Evans and Bloss played a whale of a game. At this point, which incidentally was Armistice Day, came probably the red and white’s greatest victory. The highly touted Logan team dedicating their new gridiron, was the victim. Here K. H. S.’s splendid teamwork was manifest, and we won 13-0. Pomeroy was unfortunate enough to be our next opponent, and it required little difficulty to subdue them. We collected thirty-two markers and at the same time held them scoreless. The boys played heads - up football ana apparently showed no weakness. However, whether the squad was a bit overconfident, or impeded with two most unmerciful breaks, it can not be said, but our game with the rival city, Wellston on Thanksgiving was somewhat of a disappointment. We lost the services of our two star quarterbacks Jenkins and Barlow, early in the fray, because of injury and it undoubtedly had its effect on the morale of the rest of the team. Yet by opening a sensational aerial attack late in the game we succeeded in tying the score at six all. The season of twenty-six was thus brought to a close after winning five, tying two and losing three, a splendid spirit prevailed among the athletes and their capable coach Roberts, and as the result a squad of twenty-five men remained loyal the entire season, every one striving to get in “that game and fight.” Consequently, though we will suffer the loss of a few of these stellar players, a team of even better merits is expected next year.

Page Eighty-Seven REVIEW OF THE SEASON Kinnison High School has just passed through its most successful basket ball season since the game was innovated, three years ago. This is corroborated by its eleven victories out of sixteen games, played which included the best teams in this vicinity. From this number were ten Southeastern Ohio League games, in which wre broke even, which w as well enough considering the vast difference in the respective sizes of most of these schools. As can be seen, no games were lost to non-conference schools, which is indeed creditable in itself. To open the season, we were visited by Centralia. The game was hard fought but the score 18 to 9 hardly shows K. H. S.'s superiority. This gave needed inspiration and we journeyed to Portsmouth the next week with unusual confidence. We held our own splendidly until the last few m.n-utes of the game, when the river city lads found new strength and succeeded in winning 33 to 15. After the holidays, the red and white took on the over bearing alumni for a tussle and hau i it tie um.cuity n handing them a severe trouncing 42 to 15. Pomeroy was our next victim in a close game, 19 - 18. The teams were evenly matched and a free throw by Captain Shick decided the contest. The excitement was intense. However its neighbor city, Middle-port could not fare so well as that, losing 31 to 10 in a loosely played one-sided game. K. H. S. now took a two day trip to Logan and Nelsonville which wras sadly disastrous, lor.ng both games 22 to 18 and 36 to 10 respectively. They just couldn’t find u.e basket, missing many easy chances which might easily have obtained victory. These defeats only encouraged them, glad to say, and they returned home to win four straight games from Oak Hill, Wel.ston, Ironton, and Scioto by impressive scores. Especially were the defeats inflicted on Wellston and Ironton noteworthy, both quin Page Eighty-Eight REVIEW OF THE SEASON tets being: unable to penetrate our stonewall defense. The winning streak came to a halt when Athens visited our floor. The locals could not stop the enemy’s star center, who scored nearly every point. The score was 18 to 8 and Jackson’s eye for baskets was not so accurate as usual. Our return game with Oak Hill was easy, the reu and white running over their diminutive opponents to the tune of 30 to 7. Our next struggle was with highly touted team representing Glenwood Hi from New Boston. It was a spirited affair but we had regained our eyesight by this time and defeated them 27 to 20. Gallipolis next appeared but the locals for some reason seemed rather over confident and were left on the short end of the tilt 29 to 26. Last but far from least, Wells-ton journeyed here to even up matters from the first game. They showed no great punch, however, and we had little trouble in handing them their second lacing, 24 to 14. This game wound up the present season in splendid style. Our total number of points was 355 to our opponents 268. The boys worked together in every way and it was due almost entirely to Coach Robert’s insistence on team work that the success was accomplished. The team was composed almost entirely of Seniors whom we regret very much to lose. Yet we owe our heartiest congratulations to Coach Roberts, for his careful preparation of under graduates whom we feel sure will lead K. H. S. through even a better season next year. The captain for this year’s team was Harry Shick, forward and incidentally high scorer. He will be succeeded by Abraham the outstanding star of this year’s team. May all luck attend you, George. We entered the Southeastern Ohio district Tournament at Athens but lost to Nelsonville, who by the way were runners up to Portsmouth by the score of 25 to 18 in a hard fought game.

They met the enemy and it was theirs A team that can go through an entire season without a defeat chalked up against it out of sixteen games, indeed demands admiration. Such were the K. H. S. lassies who met all opposition but whose names never appeared in the lost column. The schedule was hard and a most notable feature about it was that Weilston three times was subdued by the expert generalship of our plucky team. An idea of their superiority over their opponents can be seen by their respective scores.

May success abide with her. Page Ninety-Two TRACK After school had been resumed following the Easter vacation. Coach Roberts called a meeting for all students interested in track. A large number responded who pledged their support, although the coach pointed out that they must furnish their own equipment, which naturally, was a serious handicap for some. A cinder track was laid on the old furnace grounds, and in short time the sprinters were making the ashes fly. Many promising candidrites appeared, among whom were: ;Duckfoot” Davis, who won many first honors last year for the red and white. “Ebby” Barlow, capable hurdler and dash man; Wally Jenkins and Harry Brown, fleet and dependable men for the hurdles and dashes. The new material in Reynolds, Nichols, Eubanks, Ray and Wykle gave the veterans enough to worry about in practice tilts. Indeed K. H. S. seemed to have ample material for the track events. However the candidates for the field activities looked little less promising. The equipment was very poor and the boys were forced to work under extreme difficulties. Still they continued with their task and before a long time had elapsed, some excellent exhibitions of skill in the weight and jumping events were to be observed. Outstanding' of these were McCoy, the winner of many blue ribbons in the high and b:oad Jump in 1926. Sm th, a firrt year siar for all weight contests and Abraham. De-Long, Jones, Shick and Evans. Our team seemed well balanced, but it was uncertain just what the boys would do when facing a real enemy. The first meet was scheduled for May 2, with our rival Well:ton at We.lston. It was close, interest was intense and only did the last event deteim ne the winner, Jackson copping the banner by the score of 63 to 62. The con -t st was well attended which served as a:i inspiration to the locals, for practice was renewed the ensuing week with greater vigor. At the time of the present writing, the red and white are preparing for the Southeastern meet held at Logan and the state meet at Columbus two weeks later. It can i e expected that they will make a credible showing before this strong competition. The Track team deserves to je bestowed with the most fullhearted support from the entire student body. GOLF TEAM A new line of game was initiated into K. H. S. sport calendar this year by the formation of a golf club. Many neighboring schools have had golf teams for a number of years, but K. H. S. has just seen her wray clear. Several tournaments and dual meets are on the schedule and a really competent squad can be mustered from the following players: Carl Forsythe, Charles Chapman, Edward Claar, Heber Moore, George Roderick and Russell Lewis. GIRL RESERVES CLUB Late in the last semester, a Girl Reserve Club was organized in Jackson High School for the first time. The Girl Reserve movement is parallel to that of the Hi - Y and much benefit for the Student Body was and will be derived from these two groups. Due to their late organization the Club has not been prominent in activities this year but much is expected from the Girls next year. The Advisory Board for this year consisted of two outside members, Mrs. L. D. Peters and Mrs. James Morgan, two faculty members, Miss Sargent and Miss Folger and two seniors, Ava-nelle Elliott and Elizabeth Jones. Page Ninety-Four TThleTics W Th n ?h1'' S 0t'e q h a !!

ADVICE TO THE QUERULOUS So many questions have been asked of the Osky Wow that we feel we should endeavor to answer some of the more important of them. Each question has been given careful consideration and has been answered to the best of our ability. Because some of the questions, however, are rather personal, we must request that, unless you have a question answered here, you omit this page. J. Corn—Yes, your color scheme of a red shirt and a green tie are good but remember with this dress your bass voice will not need to be near so strong. Glen. Steele—A good freckle lotion may be made as follows: One ounce of vaseline d.ssolved in three ounces of lemon juice. Apply with chamois skin before going In the sunlight. W. Parkinson—The young gentleman should have given you his hand; you a:o right, when being introduced to a young man, it is proper to say, “Pleased to meet ou,” or “I’m sure it’s a pleasure to know you. ’ Harry Shick—There is no cause for questioning your appearance when you have on those glasses.
