THE miRROR Phillips High School IN MEMORIAM Quincy Shaw Peters—Class of 1928. Phillips High School—Paul Hayne Division To him we loved who now hevond our sphere Of life and comradeship has gone. We sadly tribute pay because his worth Was such he all our joys increased and all Our sorrows lightened. He was our friend, the sharer of our sports; He was advisor, too. as equal meets His equal in sincere and frank rebuke. His close companionship inspired and made Us strong to do his will which was always A will of high interest and high resolve-For him we mourn. Great is our loss. Hut since With us he cannot be. we shall hold dear The memory of his short, glad life full rich In years his own, and riches still to us In prophecy of manhood yet to be In pattern of youths’ nobility. a MIRROR EDITED BY THE SENIOR CLASS PHILLIPS HIGH SCHOOL S3 3 MCMXXV BIRMINGHAH ALABAMA HORTENSE RANDOLPH THORNTON BJJU 1 I1 1 D£DICATIOAI Y)ortense Randolph Thornton Your n me deAr friend,reflects honor on oar Annuad.We cannot ex pect to bestow added honor on yoa, hut we cAn hope to £ive you another token of our love And esteem.For mAny yeArs you tiAve Shored for us And with us,idealistic And cultured,with education as your lodestAr.You Ave us fAithful And devoted service.

CONTENTS Table of Contents Senior Section Class Speeches Organization Activities The Honor Society Paul Rayne Heivs Athletics Superlative Degrees Snapshots Alumni Qas Jet THE PEN AND INK CLUB The Pcii ami Ink Club of Phillips High School was organized in 1918 by Miss Belle Comer, Art Instructor. From this time on it has functioned as an organization that is absolutely necessary to the editing of a school paper or annual. This club cannot he praised too much for its earnest endeavor to promote the bc-st interests of Phillips High School. In the production of an annual the element that is so essential to success is art work. In after years as you look through your annual, and turn the worn pages of history, there will he before you some drawing, that required many hours of work, some simple cartoon that required much time to execute. This is the work of the Pen and Ink Club. In addition to the contribution to the high school annual there is other work to he done hv this organization; illustrations for the newspaper, posters that advertise some extra-curricular activity of the school. The Pen and Ink Club is in'reality a worthy representative of our high school I-ong may it live, a valued organization of a big and wonderful school.

It is the result of the work of the entire body, being planned, written, and printed by the students of Phillips High. 'I his production is perhaps the greatest factor in keeping the spirit of the student body unified and cooperative, for it keeps tbe most important daily phases of high school life before the minds of the students, and is of like interest to our parents and friends outside of school. The respective Mirror Boards, for the first semester, under Amy McGuire and Lawrence Cullen, and for the second semester, under Silvia Rich and Lawrence Carau. have worked long and earnestly to improve the paper; the well balanced issues put forth show their attempts to please and benefit the student body have been, in a measure, successful. The newspaper will continue to grow as Phillips grows, and we may look forward to a bigger and better paper in the years to come. P ge Fourteen SEN!

FROM OUR OFFICERS THINGS WORTH WHILE Classmates, there comes to each of us. now that we have finished our four years at I'hillips, the lure of a new path—the call of the open road. “Adventures by the thousands wait out there! Think of the seas unsailed, the tourneys missed, The battles others fight, the roads not cantered on. There is so much to do. to see, to feel, and to think about in this world, that every moment can he adventure. We realize that we have only one life to live, that life is a one-way road, and that we must see it and sec it clearly the first time so as to choose wisely. But along the road come chances, some to take and some to turn down. Taking the chance that is really worth while will lead us, if we will, through the gateway of adventure to a more abundant life. We all want to do our best. How can we accomplish the most with the energies ami powers at our command? What is worth while? As we set forth all of us are asking ourselves these questions. The world will not appear the same as it was. We will not realize so clearly our duty, nor will our work he so well-defined. Therefore, we must he constantly observant to discover what is vital, what is essential. Naturally we have many anticipations. We have learned enough to know that we may expect hardships as well as pleasures. We must be prepared to cross these rough places courageously bearing in mind the fact that only with hard work comes success. Like Spenser’s knight we start ott our journey, clad in old armor. We are going forward with the strength borrowed front past ages. We have formed habits of punctuality, and of systematic working and study. We have learned how to apply ourselves, and have come to have certain ideas of the value of study. The essential thing of our education after all is not whether we remember who wrote a certain poem and in what age, or what X plus Y equals, or whether we can read a passage of Virgil. When we get” a lesson we are not getting it for the teacher, she probably already knows it: but we are “getting it for ourselves. Conscientious study is character building. This equipment atone, however, is not sufficient for our quest. We must consider the body of facts and meanings which we Inherit from the past as indications of a truth which is unfolding in human practice and consciousness and which w:ould not continue to unfold unless each succeeding generation and each successfully educated individual were prepared to re-examine its foundations ami were disposed to doubt its conclusions. Education cultivates human beings who are capable of contributing to this unfolding body of facts and meanings. As students we should be able to criticise existing social and moral values as a part of the process of studying them and as a preparation for choosing our own goal and our route to it. Henceforth kind advisors will not be ever at hand like Lady Una to warn that oft danger is without show and to encourage us to add faith unto our force and be not faint.’ Only our ideals, of truth, honor, freedom, and courtesy , and service will be our cloud by day and our “pillar of fire by night. Front now on our problem will be to master the new situations which arc bound to confront us. The means to master these situations are our old factors, the things acquired at high school. We must use these old factors in new combinations or we must form new factors from our old ones. Our education has given encouragement to individuality, initiative, real thinking and judgment, and creativeness. An educated man is said to be one who knows what part of his knowledge to use and how to adopt that particular part when needed. We should project our old factors. Drummond says that spiritual law is natural law projected.” We must use what we have in order to go further in life. We do not necessarily need to go swiftly—time spent in being interrupted is ngt always time lost. To paraphrase Bacon, Pag Potty-live wisdom is baggage. Our wisdom will sometimes delay us, but in doing so it will teach us to be cautious; it will ivc us deliberation and prudence. We will not be hasty in our decisions. We will not jump at conclusions. Therefore setting iorth is a challenge, a challenge to the whole man, a challenge to him mentally, morally, and spiritually. As our interests were varied in high school, athletics, military training, science, music, scholarship, and literary societies, so life is a challenge to the diversified interests of the individual of the class, the various talents. Some of us may travel parallel roads through life. Others may never see each other again. Some of our paths will cross and let us hope in a friendly convergence. In this new civilization life is more adventurcous than in the time of knighthood. Surely a William Gorgas or a Woodrow Wilson was more courageous than any armed knight who rode a prancing steed against a fiery dragon. The life of the average man is of greater importance. The crisis is more vital because he is living for a collective and community interest. Suppose each of us should resolve today that not a minute henceforward should ever be wasted and that we should be up and on our way to patriotic service to our city, our state, and our country as much in peace as in war. What energy there would be in our lives! What strength! What noble purpose! What great results! In a city like Birmingham, in a state like Alabama, and in a country like the United States, what could we not accomplish? Whatever the goal may be or whatever way we may go, the thing that counts is what we really arc. We may drop pretense. “Eternity is not good for shams. In its clear light the things that we have pretended and the false selves that we have wrought about us like a garment will shrivel and fall away. Whatever wc really are, that let us be. in all fearlessness. Whatever we arc not. that let us cease striving to seem to be. Pretend nothing.” Walk along life's highway with face open to the view of all. Nothing gives more dignity of mind than the consciousness. I am what I pretend to be. About me there is not make-believe. Only with such sincercty will wc be able to drive from modern society, partisanship, class divisions, provincialism, and self-satisfaction. As long as the meadows may bloom, and as long as the brooks may run. The brain will forever be winning, as brains have forever won. Commanding the battle of life till the battle of life is done.” —James Monroe Mason III, President, '25. Page Potty-� ix SECRETARY FRIENDSHIP Carlyle caustically says that friendship in the heroic sense of the word no longer exists: that it is a sentiment that has become obsolete. The subject docs hold a relatively small place in modern as compared with ancient literature. But dues the fact that friendship is no longer written about prove that it no longer exists? On the contrary it seems to testify that it has become more instead of less common, more familiar instead of obsolete: that it has become so usual that writers no longer think it necessary to discuss it. Friendship is not a thing of the past. Although we disagree with Carlyle in his views upon the subject we heartily agree with Bacon in saying Friendship makes light in the understanding. Mow often has a five minute conference with a friend before a test given us untold information—information not to be derived from a textbook—in five minutes—and sometimes not to be found in a textbook at all. Friendship not only exists hut it has no limitations—neither of time, age, nor condition. Carlyle and Emerson met only once and yet they were the best of friends. David and Jonathan at their first meeting knew that they belonged to each other and although they were not social equals, in the kingdom of love there was no disparity between the King’s son and the shepherd boy. How often have we students been tongue tied in conversation with our instructors but never for an instant the least alienation. How glad we arc that friendship is not dependent on age or intellectuality but on kindred spirit. Today, friendship has come to have even a broader meaning than ever before. It has invaded even the realm of business. The principle of association in business is now accepted universally. Most of the world’s business is done by companies and partnerships or associated in endeavors of some kind. Business clubs have been formed, some of which are composed of men in the same business and some, composed of men in different ones, like the Rotary Club. These clubs have replaced “cut throat” competition with friendly rivalry. An example of friendliness in the business world is found in the convention hejd recently in London representing hundreds of advertising clubs and allied interests of U. S., Great Brittain, and the English-speaking world. It developed a greater understanding between the business men of the English-speaking nations. And close business friendships mean close international friendships. The World Power Conference offers a unique instance of international friendship in the business realm. Last July over thirty nations participated in this most extraordinary meeting of internationally known engineers, scientists, educators anil administrators. Its purpose was to consider how the industrial and scientific sources of power in all countries could be adjusted nationally and internationally. But much as it meant for the development of resources and for the exchange of all kinds of scientific data, it meant much more for international friendliness and cooperation. At present the hope of the World is international friendship. Toward the accomplishment of this ideal definite strides have been taken. Cecil John Rhode made scholarships to Oxford possible because he believed that good understanding would secure the peace of the world and that educational relations are the strongest tics. Efforts have been made by the U. S., and foreign countries to build an educational bridge between nations by the interchange of professors. Such arrangements have been made with Mexico. Chile. England and Belgium. None of these agreements is more interesting than that with Belgium where a large per cent of the profits from food stuffs has been set aside and used as a permanent fund for the interchange of forty-eight (48) scholarships and professorships between the U. S. and Belgium thus establishing a bond of friendship between the two nations. At Columbia University there is a beautiful monument to international friendship, in the form of an International Home where students of sixty-seven different nationalities are housed. Each nation is allowed only a limited number of representatives in this home which is doing a great work in promoting friendship between nations and which some day will prove a stepping stone toward future world peace. Page Forty- cvcn As scholarship has proved a tool in the building of international friendship so has sport lent its aid toward the same useful end. Perhaps the sturdy Japanese college men who have taken up Baseball and beaten us at our own national game at Stanford University, will help to revive our traditional friendship with Japan and will take back with them a reassurance of this friendship. Perhaps the day will come when every one will realize that Athletes and Sportsmen make the best ambassadors. The Olympic games have brought the nations of the earth into friendly rivalry and have promoted international good will and sportsmanship. Art. like sports, knows no national limits and to know the literature of a nation is to understand that nation and to understand, as many of us know, is to love. The world has come to agree with Cicero in his statement: “Friendship is the only point of human affairs concerning the benefit of which all. with one accord, agree. It is that thing by which the world is most blessed and receives most good. And since friendship is generally thought to he the greatest education in the world, we realize that it is the most valuable product of our High School lives. We know from experience that friendship gives satisfaction to the heart, that to have a trustworthy friend to whom we may go in trouble is to take the edge from grief, the sting from doubt, ami the shade from fear. We have experienced how great a joy is reaped from a sympathetic listener or from any kind of listener for that matter for since everyone loves to talk so it is a great joy and surprise to find anyone who will listen. We have found that friendship is like a sheltering tree and that he is rich who possesses thoughtful tactful friends with whom he feels safe when present and in whose hands his honor is secure when absent. We have discovered that friendship gives strength to character, that it is an inspiring force to lead us to greater things for the fight isn’t so hard when we know we arc not alone; that since our friends see the best in us they therefore call forth the best from us, that friendship is a safeguard against temptation, for the recollection of a friend whom we admire and who would grieve at our failure to live up to the best that we know, is a great force to save us from evil and to prompt us to good. No friendship is worth the name which docs not elevate and lead to nobility of conduct and_ strength of character. We believe that friendship is that appointed means of saving life from worldliness and selfishness. that it teaches the joy of service, the beauty of sacrifice, that it keeps love in the heart and God in the life. Friendship has meant much to us during these four years at High School. It means more than ever to us now at the divergence of our paths. It will mean still more to us in the future. Distance, separation of interests and differences in work all tend to separate us. Every change in a man's life brings the risk of letting go something of the past with which it is a loss to part. Ami the loss of a friend is the loss of an ideal. Let us cling to these friends we have made at i’hillips. But. shall we who arc hound by mutual love for Phillips, by our work and recreation, who have made and cultivated our friends between hells in the halls, or in stolen moments from the class periods, ever he separated? We shall not greet each other face to face as often in the future as we have in the years just closing, hut let us lose no opportunity for the inspiring touch of friendly hands nor forget that though separated by time and place the written word may go like a bird of joyous song hearing our messages of love and hope and good wishes to each other. Let us cherish and keep alive the friendships kindled at Phillips. “The friends thou hast and then adoption tried Grapple them to thy heart with hopes of steel. —Ruth Hill Carr. Page Forty-eight HISTORIAN The Class History of 1925, with its beginnings stretching dimly into the Remote. History recommends Itself at the most profitable of all studies, either for tragedy, comedy, historical, biographical, biographical-comical, historical-comical, tragical-biographical, tragical-comical-historical; scene or space unlimited. The tragedy of a Napo-lean is not too great, nor is the fate of several carloads of tea outside the city of Boston, too little for it to consider. There have been many and various conceptions of history, Carlyle says that History is the Letter of Instruction. Macaulay, Fiskc, Parkman and Wells have all given us what, in their opinion, history is. It is a great temptation to indulge in all the various methods of historians and make a record as composite as the landscaiH: in Milton's L’Allcgro. All historians, even the hero-worshiping Carlyle himself, emphasize the influence of environment. In four short years we have graced not less than three buildings with our presence. As humble freshmen we first entered the doors of Paul Haync. Its dark halls inspired in us a great fear as we sped from one class to another and the echoing high ceilings made us to tremble at the sound of our own voices. Before long, however, we became more self-possessed ami were able to hear ourselves with dignity even. It became the delight of our days to cross from Paul Haync to Medical College. Thus, daily wc became more expert in the matter of dodging automobiles, and thus many of the future traffic officers of Birmingham received their training. Alas! We are not permitted to enjoy pcricct bliss in this world. We were not allowed to remain in ignorance of all the wonderful truths of which we had not guessed the existence. We were sent to Medical College to stay in order that we might add further to our store of knowledge. Even here, in this place of narrow halls and of narrower stairways, life was not without its compensations. There were rooms 2 and 102. and the lunchroom, which has always been the most popular room in the school. The shady walk down the block to the library was conducive to meditation and consultation. Many times on the way to and from this haven, strollers paused for reflection or parlance around the historic flag pole. How interesting would he the tales that pole could tell were it only endowed with a voice. We await cargcrly the day when scientists discover how to treat the inanimate in order to give it life and the power of revealing its secrets. But the old order changeth. Now we find ourselves in a magnificent budding— one rivalling the dwellings of the gods in elegance and beauty. Life broadens in these latter days. The spaciousness of our new building permits varied activities, which hitherto were quite unknown to us—picture shows, auditorium periods and senior receptions. Our conceptions became enlarged to the circle of our surroundings- We extended our ideas over a new field of better sportsmanship, more responsible citizenship, and double Mirror hoards. Environment, important as it is. is not the sole factor in our wealth; we arc rich in our heritage front other lauds. It seemed as if each land, in her zeal to ou do the other, has given us of her best. The land of Chaniinade and that of Verdi have given us two who can charm our cars with Such strains as would have Won the car of Pluto to have quite set free His half-regained Eurydicc. The land of Phidias himself has bestowed on us our class artist. Surely we suspected the Scotch thrift in our “Sandy or we would not have entrusted to him the class funds. Our fighting center—Bartlett—has been recognized throughout the State for his Irish wit and ability to encourage the men on the fields. L’Acndmiic Fransaisc must sometime be allowed to read the works of our voting playwrigth, Adclc Cohn, whose last play was enacted before the admiring eyes of the French Club. Our class is the product of a happy blending. The Puritan strain is too well known to need description. Personal Page Forty-nine independence, religious intensity, evinced by the weekly prayer meetings, ethical earnestness. have made their marks deep on our history. The Cavalier has been a strain of grace, of dignity, of amenity permeating not only the social lives of the active members of a certain organization. Coke Matthews and John Lewis, but has actually been a powerful factor in consolidating the school. Yet with all these differences, our class has a common and individual heritage of ideals. A love of liberty great enough to reconcile different ways of defending it.—these essential qualities have worked out through the years those ideals which are the true riches and strength of our class. A study of class documents reveals the scientific, social, and patriotic propensities of the class. The skill of our students in essays and addresses has brought fame and honor to our school many times. The article Making American Citizens. bv Lucile Walthall, was indeed excellent, and she has received some recognition for her efforts, although a philosopher, like the writer of a true poem, cannot be sure of just reward in her own day. for men arc most forward to recognize the highest excellence. Those dissertations on chemistry by Ferdinand Arn and DeValse Mann won the state-wide recognition oi even the most eminent scientists Our silver-tongued orators, Joe Atkins. Robert Stephens, Bowden Ward. Charles Weinstein. George Stafford, and Fd Herzog inspired us with a new respect for our constitution and its makers. Many, however, have left no addresses, their medium being the spoken word which belongs to the moment and to the occasion and to the speaker. Dan Barber, President of the Council Spak noght of word more than was nede. And that was seyd in forme and reverence.” Amy McGuire, the competent head of marshals, has often made her voice heard and her presence felt by the stragglers in the halls. Many a Friday afternoon the able club presidents discoursed to their fellow members on subjects of general interest. The priceless legacy of these leaders to their classmates, however, docs not Consist of warnings, advice, rules of behavior or fingers pointing in the direction of particular goals. It consists of the revelation of a better way of life for the leaders in this democracy. Unlike that desolate city of which Dunsany writes, our class will live on. for its ideals have been voiced in the poetry of not only Virginia Sandusky, our class poet, hut also Grace Martin, Evelyn Coffin. Carolyn Norton, and Mary Perry. Perhaps the most tangible bequests of the class to succeeding Phillips citizens arc the Sportsmanship Code, compiled by Paul Grcbs. and the new constitution, drawn up by the present council. Now that wo have reached the point where we can say. with Caesar. “We came, wc saw. we conquered.’ wc feel proud and victorious, yet humble. For wc realize now the vastness of life stretching before us and our duty to mankind. We consider History with its beginnings stretching dimly into the remote Time; emerging darkly out of mysterious Eternity—the ends of it enveloping us at this hour, whereof we, at this hour, both as actors and relators, form a part! —Martha Lewis Scott, Historian, '25.

ORATOR LEST WE FORGET hi the age in which we are living, the material things of life have made a large conquest ' Many of the hardships and discomforts that our forefathers suffered, have not fallen to our lot. Slow and dangerous travel by coach is no longer popular: we travel now by automobile and fast express. Improvements in every line have been made. The flickering dip-candle has yielded to the electric lights; and many devices, electrical and mechanical, give us instant heat, and water may he had at the turn of a spigot. In this period of comfortable living, the question arises, How shall we regard our modern conveniences? Are they benefits? In our enjoyment of them. Is there not danger lest we forget that stern conditions breed fighting men ? The hazard of civilization. .«ays a writer, is that old time luxuries arc now modern necessities. There is peril in too many allies at little cost. What about the hardihood of the pioneer? What about the hardihood of our generation? The answer may he that our comforts arc Lydian pleasures reconciling us too easily to passive acceptance. On the other hand, if we use pur comforts as an incentive to greater efforts, we can agree with the thought, that Ease has its prick and comfort its spur. The onward rush of a car, the almost intant flash of a message should encourage us to greater things. If this be our interpretation. Our freedom from drudgery is a kindly release —but there is danger lest we forget our individual obligations. We must not depend too largely on our friendly allies. In accepting the gifts oi the great minds, is it not possible that we shall consider ourselves rightful heirs to all the ages ? We should remember the legacy is not rightly ours until we give value received. Is there not danger lest we forget to pay our debt? We need to think: we need to he alert lest we forget Carlyle's sharp command Produce, produce —for only the man who produces, who contributes is the good citizen. Again we need to he cautious lc i we forget in our friendly adjustment to the times that mind is more than matter. We need always to remember that the ideal comes before the real, is above the real and beyond the real. We need to remember that in the perfection of mechanical devices, that behind each invention is the driving power of the human mind and the longing of the human spirit. Man’s dreaming and man's planning have given to us the airship and the submarine to scale the heights and plumb the depths. There is no void, all the air is vibrant with life, a fuller life for man. Geniuses have lived devised and created. It is ours to carry one. Hut we must take heed lest we forget the everyday duties. Ethics of business and policies of government should keep pace with inventive progress! Management of business and direction oi government arc matters which concern all citizens. They are the vital things, and it is in the e fields, that we, seniors of 25. have direct opportunities for work. We ought to listen to a sermon on the glory of the unfinished. for it will he our privilege as a class, to complete unfinished tasks. Some of us will enter business, some will go to college, others will pursue various activities; hut each and every one of us should interest himself in the everyday affairs of men and women. There is danger lest we forget that The ordinary is the extraordinary ; that what concerns the rank and file of men is of the utmost importance. I-ct those who enter business take heed lest they forget that a fair exchange is the basis of all business transactions; that while the whole is greater than any of its parts, it requires every man and every woman to make up the whole, and that on the relation of the parts to the whole docs stability depend. “Government ought to he a simple thing, an understanding among folk. It should function as a brotherhood. But brotherhood is a catchy phrase that stirs us to great feeling, but not always to wise action. Brotherhood of man does not mean a mass of men, living together in nearness of time, place, or circumstance. It means something nearer than that—something simpler— something easy to preach hut hard to practice; it means the practice of the golden rule— to give every fellow a chance, an equal opportunity. What we need to realize is that good fortune, or success is always increased when we increase the number that share (Continued cm page 35) Page Fifty-one STATISTICIAN A STATISCAL DIAGNOSIS OF THE SENIOR CLASS Mr. President, and members of the trustworthy hut much differentiated Class of 1925: I will not ask for the loan of your ears, for auricular appendages I consider subject to every abuse, except the loan. For four or more treacherous years, (1 speak with extended time) your auditory nerves have been unnerved by the didacticc urging of over-zealous teachers. Undoubtedly they have responded to the swelling noises of the halls, and have trembled as Milton would say to the higher strain of your golden opportunities. or they have listened eagerly to the dangerous but lucid hope of possible graduation. To cars so attuned I pay reverence. Not in the hour of most joy to he sure, or the hour most inspiring in piling us statictics upon statitics would I ask you to lend me your cars. I do not give this apology through humility but for policy's sake lest your “cars be fortified against my story ,—a story framed by me, your own statistician, through the compulsion ot your honorable vote, wrought and written out only after extreme assiduity and prolonged research into the cryptic qualities of figures and letters. But to forsake my digression from the main theme and to return to the car marks of our paper based on the science of numerology, I wish to speak with perspicacity perspicacious, or In other words. I demand your attention. Your noble Historian has told you whence, your honorable President has told you whither, and it remains for me, a statistical dramatist or a dramatic statistician, to give you your life from whence to whither. So will you not ostracize me from your presence, or rock me from the stage, because of my data, however authentic. I know what you think you are, but what you arc, and what you think you are, may be as divergent as direct and obverse proportion. I will, therefore, cast aside my cloak of formality, and with a heart of stone, and a head of wood lay before you a sympathetic estimate of the Class of 1925. To those of you who arc not already asleep I present myself before you as a diagnostician knowing by your symptomatic proclivities, that it is not the hookworm but the bookworm that has devitalized your erudite propensities. I have found through careful study that your idiosyncracics are the result of the persistent study of idiotic Latin idioms. To be sure, this idio epidemic is much to be regretted. The reason you cannot estimate the real value of your High School education is because Math has heaped confusion upon confusion, till values are (strange to say) associated with. x. y, z.—the most unintelligent letters of the alphabet in my opinion and holders of the bottom-most ranks. Much to my sorrow, parallel lines are always being cut by transversals, till the mere sight of a cross word puzzle lacerates the tender feelings of about 80 per cent of the would he geometricians in our number. And as for English, modern short stories have held us so breathless that practically 95 per cent arc exhausted. And alas, with our poetic feet, we have stumbled over so much that we are out of the running. But as for drama, it has helped us interpret life, the which of what I shall show by this thesis. How far back the whence lies, the golden days, when books were all pictures with reading only incidental, or largely accidental, when everyone fooled us to the top of our bent! We had many delusions in that day. But in this journey from whence to whither many have been shattered, and thrown to the four winds. The great disappointment was the discovery of the real Stanta Claus. Some few found he was the daddy, about 40 per cent discovered he was the Governor, while nearly 47.2 per cent discovered he was merely the Pater Familias . The most astonishing discovery of all was. that the tower of Babel is not located in the auditorium. Heretofore it was thought of as a place for the confusion of tongues, but it was found to be a pice of severe silence. Other things we have found out by experience— Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other, said Benjamin Franklin. So I stand before you fellow students and congratulate you on your brilliant attainments and high grades in this great school of experience. By experience we have found that those who indulge in two-day love affairs are usually whole term flunkers. But the most startling discovery is that while the wording of laws seems to limit a teacher to the giving of twenty demerits,— that such is not the case, she can give as many as she wishes. But, class, take heart, we will be prepared to write many jokers into the laws of the future. Page Fifty-two About the most interesting as well as valuable thing that I have found in my diagnosis of the Senior Class, is the Senior himself. Complying with the duties of a statistician I have enumerated enumerations that will include all Seniors boys and girls alike. I have found: 1. That the most naive person in the world is a Senior boy. He docs not know, that he does not know. 2. That the most stubborn animal next to the graminivorous ruminant cows, is the same Senior boy. 3. That if all the confidence expressed by the boys could be cast into real kinetic energy, all the serious problems of a school term could be solved in a few hours. 4. That 52.2 per cent of the girls arc blase, that the other 47.8 per cent arc only players in Vanity Fair.” 5. That 43.6 per cent of the girls arc in fashion, .4 per cent arc out of fashion, 31 per cent arc one year ahead of the fashion, 26 per cent arc ultra-modernist of about 2000 A. D. But, classmates, we must venture on from whence to whither. After much research into the corrugated crevices of my cob-webbed cranium I have at last found some means by which to measure you. As the electrician has the “olim to measure electrical resistance. so will 1 take the never-to-be-forgotten “ation to measure your resistance to knowledge.

Vour life from whence to whither has been a misery I am sure. “Tie-ups in traffic have greatly impeded our progress. But the time has come, and we arc ready for our initiation into the mystic fortunes of the future. Therefore, my Braves , you are now gathered to grace the rafters of this building for the last time. I ask you. have you left any foot prints on the sands of time, or have you been more like the poet who walks “with printlcss feet. You have left many reverberations in the halls I am sure. So my friends, and faculty, as Generals leave the field when the battle is over, as Caesar crossed the Rubicon when lie was tired of Gaul, and as all great people retire in a moment of prominence, so will we, this class of 1925, unwept and unhonored, wrap the cloak of our diginitv about us, and in the light of our genius (however dim) depart from whence to whither 1 AMZI MeVAY, Statistician, ’25. Page Fifiy-ihree ESSAYIST STUDIES In the dim, dark ages, men were brutes: in the ante-tribal days man roamed the woods and fields after the manner of the lower animals. Epochs passed before he had prudence enough to protect himself from the rain and the elements. But two things ult.matcly raised man to the position of ruler. These two things arc. first, that his thumb bears its pressure against the other digits of the hand, and. second, that Ins intellectual curiosity always incites him to greater efforts. When man first started to reason, he employed the inductive method. He probably discovered fire by the accidental striking of two pieces of flint; wishing to see if the result would be the same in every case, he then started striking flints with a definite purpose. All was new; his study was by means of observation. Necessity, the fear of the wild beasts, and the seeming unfriendliness of nature forced man to study how to protect himself, how to take and hold every advantage possible over what he considered hostile As civilization advanced, man's course of thought changed. Self-protection ceased to be the chief urge. Man made friends with the plants, with the lower animals, and with other men. and he learned to enjoy them. Nature became friendly: seasons were found to be regular recurrences which he welcomed and forecasted as to length of days, heat of sun and depht of rain. A closer study of nature established the weather bureau, and. later, at sea. when man had learned to travel thereon, he devised signals for relief in time of storm and distress. In medieval days, after man had learned the art of leadership, autocracy became rite. The ruler claimed to be divinely appointed: he believed that God had chosen him to rule, and even to have the power of life and death over his subjects. 1 lien no ordinary man dared speak his thoughts aloud, lest they be construed as unfavorable to the powers above him. But later man’s persistent study and search for the truth led him to the conclusion that no autocrat has the right to rule his fellows. Mis study influenced him to think that distributed power is liberty’s safe-guard: and so dcmocray came into being, thrived, and grew, until now democracy girds the earth. As the evils of autocracy diminished, man had more incentive for studies of governmental science. He then broadened his scope ami gave his attention to the allied subjects. the social sciences. National and city legislation began to function more broadly. They embraced departments of Agriculture. Commerce, Health. Sanitation. Men high in governmental positions even deigned to study Recreation. Man’s intellectual curiosity at last was seeking gratification in bettering the conditions of men. Under this new dispensation, man had more time for individual advancement. He then turned to the cultural things, things not essential to existence, but essential to life. Music, painting, and the other arts became esthetic necessities. Man found in them diversion and release from the monotony of striving merely for livelihood. They made him strive “to attain the spiritual”. While man in one mood was appreciating the study of artistic things, man in another mood was diligently seeking to know essential and practical things. Chemists ami surgeons. men in all branches of science were attempting to find definite methods to obtain the knowledge they desired. They soon found that the best ami safest way was by painstaking investigation. Details had to he gone into with exactness and thoroughness. “Original and hold were the tests made’’: a highly diversified knowledge; the result “They unified, compiled, ami set down in hooks the decisions reached—and thus the study of hooks became more worthwhile and more general. Now the mind of man turns to books. He knows that some man. somewhere, has already investigated for him the thing he wants to know, and he expects to cry “Eureka after volumes of study. But man docs not turn to hooks only for information. Books are obliging in many ways. As Bacon says, they serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability and when well used, they serve man wisely: hut if he become lazy and follow the line of least resistance, they hinder the progress of his thought and cause him to take (Continued on next pane) Pa«e Fifty-four ESSAYIST (Continued (mm page 54) for granted ai| that i� printed. After such manner he uncritically studies the thoughts of an author; he accepts the ideas strikingly set forth, until forgetting that such a one as the author ever existed, he develops wondrous mind cycles that lead him hack to where he began—all under the delusion that he has exercised profound thought, when in truth the writer who promulgated the idea started the work exactly where he had finished. The study of books brings man to the consideration of methods of study. Some of his processes arc too definitely bound to the catachctical . The question is imperious, the answer must respond. The answer is found for the looking and not for the thinking. By such procedure, it is easier to sit and think of the words that fit into a cross word puzzle than it is to find the sequence to a mathematical problem. If it were as easy to apply our mental energy to wisdom a it is to expend it in folly, how much faster would the world advance) It is a little thing—a condition of mind, or. as it is popularly called, our temperament, that determines whether we would rather apply our study to the mechanical or to the cultural arts. A railroad engineer possibly could not appreciate the blending of color in a painting, nor could the artist, who conceived the picture, interest himself greatly in the intricacies of a steam engine; but this is not to be regretted; for, many men, many minds, and the greater the divergence of the branches of study, the better the opportunity for more extended study and a broader life. Though studies arc nominally mental foods, they arc means to all ends; they even insure bodily comforts. They afford us relaxation from work or from play. It is the change that works the benefit. Play intensifies study; study promotes play. So it is seen that studies are rest or hard work; they arc practical or impractical; some of them are useful, but they may be useless; they arc either a hindrance or a help; they are a diversion, but they become a monotony; but studies arc indispcnsible. —LAWRENCE CULLEN, Essayist, '25. ORATOR (Continued from page 51) it with us. Since all ideals loom larger in a friendly atmosphere , it is our duty as a class to encourage friendly brotherhood, for it, in turn, promotes larger prosperity. But even in this, there is danger lest we forget that True friendliness is often expressed not by agreement but by protest.” There is danger that we may become inured to certain conditions of the age; there is danger that we may sit idly by waiting for the impetus of time or of the age to bring about the time or the chance. If we do, we forget Carlyle’s emphatic words: “Man makes the age, not the age the man.” Our class, as a group of citizens of 1925, should effect many changes. But we should remember, that timely interference often brings about the greatest reforms. The brotherhood of man will be accomplished both by agreements and by protest. We build up good business and good government by selecting and rejecting. We should be willing to accept; we should dare to reject. Our understanding should determine. Our judgment should warn us also, lest we forget that heirs to all the ages arc debtors to all the ages: that if we exalt mind above matter, mind should guide us to see the glory of the unfinished and the dignity of the commonplace : and all cob-web speculations swept aside,” the practability of the brotherhood of man. To such a task, to such a vision. I commit you, seniors of 1925—but there is danger lest we forget. HENRY S. DANIEL, Orator '25. Page Fifty-five CLASS POET WHITHER? We arc pausing now beside the gate, The great division called To-day, Doing nothing—but to wait And plan To-morrow’s way. Which magic road will tempt our feet, Leading out to meet the blue— Shall it be flowers sweet. Rosy flowers filled with dew? There's a path o’er emerald hills, Where the bluest harebells grow. And the breeze each tulip fills With its siren music low. Oh! to gather lovely flowers. Or to linger there and dream. Freely wasting precious hours. Chasing every sunny gleam. Over those low lying hills Is the path with even gait, Near dusky groves and quiet rills, Where Nature fails Ambition’s rate. No hills that ever call to fame. Hills that only seem to go On without an aftername Where the idle brooklets flow. The other path is not so gay But its hills are far more high, Tho ’tis very steep and grey, Its summits proudly pierce the sky. All those paths lead to the sun, For the journey we shall make. Paths we follow one by one— Senior, which one will you take? —Virginia Sandusky, ’25.

LEAVES IN A STORM The ominous clouds vent in tears all their wrath At the blustering winds, pilfering thieves. While in hatjnonic chaos The trees strew the path With their bright colored, fluttering leaves. Oh. the lure of the sweep Of that red and green heap As it whirls with emotion away And some laggards, behind, Brush by one, with a mind For only the far crowd so gay! Oh. the lure of the reckless and pleasure-bent sweep Of the tri-colored emblems of life As they mount in the air, Ere the sky shows its fair, And laugh at the clouds in their strfc! —Evelyn Coffin, ‘25 AT EVEN’ Shadows fall, soft and beckoning. Gray blue the sky— Stars slip out. young and questioning. Wistful am I. Moonlight is white, mysterious; Flower sweet the air. Trees sway with joy, delirious, This night is fair.

It was ideal for the tint, having all of the elements of romance in its eternal meaning, as well as some of the most appealing and yet typical characters of modern times. All who saw the play were able to see themselves in' some character, or characters in the cast. An unusually heavy responsibility was placed on the shoulders of those taking part as the same play was to be given at several other schools and institutions in the city, but a number of those intending to witness its performance elsewhere, realizing Miss Smith’s ability as a director, attended the play at Phillips too. No presentation in the city was more successful than that given by Miss Smith’s cast. The cast, a most enthusiastic one. consisting of Adria Speilberger. Mary Perry, Lcola Armstrong, Julia Weil, Boswell Johnson, Henry Daniel, Edward Herzog. Robert Stiles, and DcValsc Mann, undoubtedly showed the best team-work’’ seen in some time. Lcola Armstrong who had one of the most difficult parts for a high school student to play, that of a managing mother, with excellent dignity and a wonderfully trained voice, filled the part admirably. In the part of Jane, Mary Perry again showed her versatility, having taken parts of such entirely different types of characters as Kate Hardcastle in “She Stoops To Conquer”, and Dorothy Andrews in A Proposal Under Difficulties , which was given at the Yancey’s annual social. Jane is the “very unromantic girl” in the “Romantic Age , and Mary was Jane. As Mclitanda, Adria Speilberger offers a very interesting contrast to Jane. Sandy as Mciisandc was often called, was a girl really born too late for the age. She longed for romance and dreamed of a knight dressed in blue and gold to come and take her far away”. Her view of the ideal man was given with great feeling and many a longing sigh when none save she and Jane were present. She had the idea that there was no romance in the modern days and it took her some time to find that a girl could really live and yet be romantic in the Twentieth Century. As Alice, Julia Weil did such splendid acting even in so short a part, that she made us almost forget that she is one of our “Honor Society , and not merely an efficient maid. Not often does the “dream prince appear so unexpectedly and under such circumstances as docs Gervase, Boswell Johnson. In fact it is most unusual for a prince to stop at a strange house on account of automobile trouble; yet such is the ease with Gervase. Boswell’s remarkable ease of manner made the unusual seem usual and we arc not at all surprised that Sandy falls in love with him at first sight. With his well trained voice, Edward Herzog, as Mr. Knowle, the father who took great delight in teasing his wife and daughter, in an innocent manner, did well. As Bobby, Henry Daniel impersonates to perfection the plain lover, who has no imagination whatsoever, and therefore was considered impossible by Sandy”, whom he thought at first that he loved. Of course he later found that Jane, who was as sensible as himself , was the only girl for him. Although we only saw Robert Stiles, as Ern. and DcValsc Mann, as Gentlemen Susan once, we shall not soon forget their ability. The scenery for the play was unusually well suited to the occasion, for it was made and put up by our own manual training and vocational departments. It is especially interesting to us. The Senior Plays for the past few years have been so successful and so well attended that one may well say: The Senior Play’s the Thing Whereby To Catch The Interest of the School. There was also a prologue to the play, Square Pegs , a fantasy. Miss Edna Minis-man played the part of the sixteenth century girl and Medora Hamburg held the title of Miss Twentieth Century.

Before the royal tapestry was lifted on this gorgeous social several numbers were rendered by Phillips most noteworthy talent. Evelyn Sellers gave a piano solo; Ruth Hill Carr a reading and then Morris Sirotc, the court violinist added a most enjoyable solo. To the strains of the royal music of Phillips' Symphony the curtains rose on the beautiful scene. Carrying out their royal state each of the court in turn bids farewell to those lords and Indies who would soon wend their way from the gates of Phillips into the new. unexplored land of somewhere. A reception followed in the Library of the palace, which was a fitting place, as it was here these wanderers had reaped much knowledge. The receiving line consisted of Mr. and Mrs. Going and the officers of the class of 1925. And now farewell. O ye who seek that other land. Farewell, farewell. Pi|e Seventy-nine LHE COUNCIL OF PHILLIPS HIGH The Council is the backbone of Pihllips High School through which all activities of the students arc regulated. The representation consists of two pupils from each of the various session rooms. There is a president, vice president, and secretary, leading this body. The officers tor the two terms were as follows. First Second I resident ______________ Dan Barber Jack Mcacham Vice President - ____ Windham Southgate Martha Lewis Scott Secretary _________________________ Bessie Stanton------------- Mary Perry Under the guidance and inspiration of Miss Merrill much work was accomplished. The two real aims of the pupils were to frame a constitution for Phillips and lead this school to the attainment of the sportsmanship cup. To make a constitution for our school required hard study. Constitutions from various schools were procured and these were discussed by the students. Original ideas were also in demand and many views on the project were given. It was a matter of slow process for this constitution is to he a permanent and precious document of Phillips High for years to come. In order to accomplish this aim a committee was appointed and good were their results. Of course all readers of the Phillips Mirror know of the sportsmanship campaign among the various schools. It was to he the true test of the best sport. At all the hall games a spirit of fellowship pervaded the atmosphere; friendly yells and laughing cheers were sent from opponent to opponent. And the Council being the representative body of Phillips in this competitive game of life, decided to make clear to all that though Phillips had not won all the games they were good losers—and so they gave a banquet. All the teams of the various High schools and the sportsmanship judges were invited. The Council indeed had a successful year and is looking forward to many more. P t Eighty OUR MARSHALS The Marshals play an important part in Phillips High; th.y are our traffic policemen. We don’t like to admit that we need policemen but boys will he hoys and girls will he girls a id those with loose tongues and wandering spirits sometime need a restraining hand. A few demerit slips have cured maty a roaming nature. A great deal of the efficiency of the Marshals is due to th -ir fine organization. A certain number of hoy and girl marshals are chosen from every Session room, according to its population, we might say. From these, the Officers are elected who consist of. Head Marshal and the Secretary. 1 lie Head Marshal presides over the meetings and wit’i his or her assistant, oversees the other Marshals. The Sec-retary keeps a record of all the Marshals, their Session rooms and posts of duty. A member of the Faculty, working with the Officers, supervises this part of Phillips' Student Government. CITIZENSHIP CONTEST Phillips has had a very unusual contest this semester. We are familiar with inter-class football and basketball, club debates and things of that sort where a few have represented the class or the club. But we have never had a contest where every pupil in the entire school cither helps or hinders, according to his own wish. The eighth semester pupils, tho they were not allowed to enter the contest, were sponsors and judges, so that each semester had a part. As judges these eighth semester pupils gave a wide interpretation to the term “good citizenship . First they thought it involved one who attends to his own business, and docs that business as best he knows how, one who is not satisfied to fail when he can pass or to make the grade of seventy-five when he can make eighty-five. A good citizen in school docs all he can for the betterment of his school. Helping in the Mirror work or club work or some activity not required proves a good citizen. Further, each semester in doing some project hoped to better school conditions. No matter what the work was the whole group had a part. The leaders who had planned and thought out the work had as important a i art as those who carried it out. Even the cooperation of the rival semesters was needed. We arc very grateful to the donor, Mr. Louis Pizitz. Never before have pupils had more impressed on their minds the value of good citizenship, and while we practice it in high school and learn what the meaning of it is, we shall realize in a larger sense its value in a community and a city, after we have finished school. We arc sure after the contest closes each pupil of Phillips High School is going to strive to be a better citizen and Mr. Pizitz will feel that his efforts have not been in vain, but they arc fully repaid. Again, thanks to our donor! Page Eighty-two HONOR SOCIETY Of the many clubs ami societies of Phillips High School there is only one which has its charter granted by a national council. That one is the National Honor Society. Founded primarily for the recognition of scholarship, in an obscure private academy, the society spread rapidly. Schools in all sections of the country, perceiving that this organization would fill a long-felt need, adopted the idea with such enthusiasm that prompt action toward uniformity had to be taken lest admittance to this society should soon prove of small value. Accordingly a committee of secondary school principals goon met and took up the matter. Thinking that election to the honor societies ought not to be based on scholarship atone, they added three other fundamental requirements; character, leadership, and service. The addition of these three made the election to the Honor Society much more to he sought and prized. At a later meeting of the committee the constitution and the emblem were adopted, and the first National Council formed. Thus we have as a result of their untiring efforts our present National Honor Society. Although many would see nothing significant in its appearance, the Honor Society emblem means a great deal to its proud wearers. The blazing torch represents the chief ideal of the society, the Light of Knowledge, which has been as a beacon to men of all ages. But Knowledge alone is of no avail since being is more important than knowing and doing more important than being. Each of those letters C. S. L. S. represents some deed or deeds well done. The C stands for straightforward, dependable character, for the trust of the faculty, and for conscientious honesty in all phases of high school life. The S represents an enviable record in scholarship gained by three or perhaps four years of untiring Study broken only by the long awaited summer vacations. The L is symbolical of capable trustworthy leadership, a quality respected and admired by all the students. The final S represents some worthy unselfish service rendered to the school, whether in the position of marshal or as chairman of some important committee, both of which arc devoted to the same cause, that of the school. Who would not be justly proud of being one of the few chosen by such a high standard? And in reality there arc only a few. for not more than fifteen per cent, of the graduating class may he members. Of these the five per cent, having the record most brilliant in all respects may he chosen at the end of their third year in high school. The remaining ten per cent, may be chosen in the seventh or eighth semesters. If a student during his early years in high school has the Honor Society as his definite aim. and keeps up the required standards at the proper time he is almost certain to be chosen to 'carry the torch onward.' When a high school is granted the right to confer membership to the National Honor Society upon a student, not only is the student honored, but also the school itself is complimented, for only when a high school has attained a certain rank is it given this privilege, the student body should be as proud of this distinction as the members of the Honor Society arc of their achievement. The purpose of our own chapter of the National Honor Society is to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character in the students of the high school. By fulfilling this purpose the school meets the nations demand for true future citizens. And when the doors arc opened wide and the students stream forth into the world, they are ready to take their places as intelligent, unselfish and loyal leaders of the nation.

Page Eighty-tix On the competition drill field, or on the parade grounds, as the companies of the Reserve Officers Training Corps go swinging by, many a grammar school student stands among the spectators, riveted to the spot in open-eyed admiration. The unity of the scene before hint, the perfect steps, contestant loyalty of the men to flic student officer, who is probably an admired friend, fires him with an imhition to. when the times comes, to Jill his place. The grammar school student becomes � high school student. He makes out lis course, and, urged on by bis ambi-ion, he joins the R. O. T. C. Thru the ime that follows lie struggles on toward lis goal, but little does be know the change icing wrought in him. The carefully daiincd and studied daily exercise lie receives develops him from the frail hoy into a robust, manly youth. The drilling and mental training he receives disciplines him ami lends him the presence of mind of a matured man. He has learned honor, loyalty, cooperation; and as a result of his learning and training, he emerges at his goal, a student officer, and a better man for it. A higher service awaits him; surely such training comes near fitting a man to per-froni justly, skilfully and magnanimously, all officers, both private and public, of peace and war. Although it was a training in the arts of war that he received it was developed him into a patriotic, physically sound, upright, and disciplined citizen. He is not only patriotic during the time of war and on the Fourth of July, hut his patriotism promps him to study the nation's problems, to always vote, and to vote for the best man or best principle; to obey the laws of his country and community. His strong body will give him, no matter whether he becomes a soldier or a citizen, an advantage over the man with a weak or deceased body. He can cheerfully give up pleasure and personal privileges that conflict with duty, because he is disciplined and this habit of obedience serves him also in obeying the laws. Since the R. O. T. C. does all of these things for the student, we should sec it, at Phillips, as a great benefactor to the school. Greater Birmingham, and the important ego. The trees, the stones, and all the materials used in constructing a great edifice aro of little importance so long as they lay scattered over the country, but when the skilled workman gathers, and put together each portion of the material in its place, he has a wonderful building, a true benefactor to man. So it it is with our R. O. T. C., it gathers together all the material , organizes it, and the result is a better man,” a future benefactor to mankind. —Ernest Redd, Jr. P«ge Eight jr-Mvea Page Eighty-eight Page Ninety Pane Ninety-one CHARACTER EDUCATION At the suggestion of the Superintendent of schools, a new course was introduced into the curriculum of the Phillips High School with the opening of this school year. This course, while not actually appearing in the printed Course of Study, is open to all students in addition to the studies they are required to pursue. In fact it has so permeated the atmosphere of Phillips that it has become an integral part of every study and every activity within the school. As the months have passed, such increasing interest has been manifested that almost the entire student body is registered in the course. Its popularity is due not to the fact tha it is easy, but to the fact that public opinion at Phillips has decreed that each student should possess those attributes which arc invariably acquired in this valuable and practical study. It is my sincere hope that soon the time will come when every student entering Phillips High School will take advantage of the priceless training offered in this unrequired course. A diploma in Character Education should assure success in life. And yet Character Education is not really a new project at Phillips. Much that has been accomplished this year is due to the rich heritage of the past, and building upon this, it has been gratifying to see the splendid results accomplished by the students in this one year. Such results in Character Education have been accomplished by directly applying to all school activities the ethical principles gleaned front books, the advice offered by teachers and friends and the observations and experiences that come from life itself. Probably the keynote in all this is service. And, as our building is enlarged and as our membership is increased, a larger opportunity for definite, loyal service to the individual and school, will assuredly appear. A student who honestly and unselfishly serves his fellows, his school and his city, best serves himself. Who can say that those students who have given liberally of their time and talent to the clubs, to the Mirror, to the Student Council, to the Board of Marshals, to the ushers’ committees, to the work in the principal's office, to teaching for absent instructors, to the management of large study classes, to service in the lunch room and to other organizations in the school, have not unconsciously been imbued with enduring spirit of character. That the school is achieving actual results in character building is strikingly evident when the Sportsmanship Campaign is considered. Both teams and supporters have always kept in mind the ideals of true sportsmanship. No unworthy or ungracious acts have been noted. Truly the Phillips Spotsmanship Code was the guide. This code, entirely the work of students, is a very significant statement on the standards of character, on the athletic field, in school and in life. As an illustration of character growth through community service. 1 need only mention the splendid response of the school to the Community Chest Fund when presented by their fellow students. Many young men, also, served as speakers during Know Birmingham Week . However it would be impossible in the space of the article to enumerate all the splendid projects through which Character Education has been broadened and linked with good citizenship. As this school year draws to a close no formal examination will be required for this course in Character Education. But perhaps a self-examination would not be amiss. If you pass such a test and find that your life at Phillips has been enriched, it is because of self-reliance, honest work, and service to others. May the development of sound character go hand in hand with the development of a sound body and a sound mind. P e Ninety-two C. J. GOING GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP The inlrtnl tikrti by the student of the high school of Birmingham, In the cultivation of the SPIRIT OP TRUE SI'OKSMANSI! 11 , ii to the Hoard of Education, one of the must gratifying results of the year's work in the school . Re.-entl the writer, the Superintendent of School , and other Birmingham citiren . witnessed a fine exhibition of good sportsman-• hip at Alatvaina College, Monte vallo. It m on the occasion of the laying of the corner tone of their new dormitory. In the evening, “College Night wa� held and a wonderful performance, including ■unit , dramatic and atunta wa put on by two rival group of students, the INirple and the Cold. All stu-drnt of the institution were included hi one or the other of these group . When the reault of the hard fought and tpirited context wa announced at won by the l'urple. the cheer leader for the Gold immediately prang to the platform and led her group in igorou and well merited applause. Following tht both grout foined in hearty cheer for the tchonl. Tlii incident but illustrate what i bring done over ami over again in our own school . Good sportsmanship i a virtue which should lie included in every individual’ character; an ideal toward which all of u may well strive. It I an element of character which ha to do with our relationship and dealings with others, either in sports, in social life, in all school activities and work, or in the business world. It is an indication of one’s respect for the time honored principles of good conduct. Though the term '’sportsmanship is usually associates! with the thought of soprts anil games, it is not at all confined to the athletic field, but is rather the spirit of fair play in everything that has to do with one’s association and dealing with others, either with schoolmate , in school or out of school, and with everybody in the outside world. Such an important subject as this i worthy of careful attention and it b expected that the schools perforin efficient service in inculcating the elements ol true port man hip in its broadest ieu e in the mind of all. In the teaching of these valuable lessons the teaching ol athletic sports play a most important role, for there are no other school activities which offer equal opportunities for proving the worth to the boy and girls of the doctrine of fair play and gallant conduct. In the school game and work, clean play always attracts attention, and what is still more important, it is always approached. A demonstration ol unfair tactics is also always noticeable and invariably creates in the minds of the spectators an unfavorable im prexsion of the guilty player. Even in the stands, the spectators may conduct thcuuclves with credit to their school, or in such a manner as will reflect discredit upon their institution. It is hoped that the program for good sportsmanship will lead from the athletic field into the classroom and irom the schools out into the broad field ol lile. If this objective is achieved then a valuable lesson has been given, a lesson which will help to make the future citiiens of Birmingham known and respected for their honesty and fair dealing. ERSKINE RAMSEY. Page Ninety-three SPORTSMANSHIP CODE PHILLIPS HIGH SCHOOL A GOOD SPORTSMAN— IS COURTEOUS ON THE FIELD he docs not jeer at errors; he docs not cheer at the opponent's penalty; he treats them as guests, not enemies. IN SCHOOL he is considerate of the faculty, of the fellow students, and of visitors. IN’ LIFE he is respectful to elders and superiors; he treats the other fellow as he would be treated. IS MODEST ON THE FIELD he works for the good of the team rather than for individual honor; he will even sacrifice his own prestige for his team; he is a gracious winner. IN SCHOOL he does not become conceited over his success, neither does he feel himself superior to his classmates. IN LIFE he does not “blow about what he is going to do; he does not boast about what he has done. IS GENEROUS ON THE FIELD he applauds a good play of his opponents; he gives the other fellow the benefit of the doubt. IN SCHOOL he does not “knock’ other schools or individuals; he appreciates another's merit. IN LIFE he docs not ridicule the man who is down,” but encourages him. He is not afraid to think for himself and to voice his opinions straight, forwardly, and clearly, IS-GAME ON THE FIELD he plays hard: he fights though he may be already defeated; he accepts adverse decisions; he is a good loser. IN SCHOOL he does his work, he keeps on working in the face of almost certain failure. He has the vim to think straight, the pluck to act straight. IN LIFE he does his part, however hard it may be; he accepts reverses with a smile and tries again. IS OBEDIENT ON THE FIELD he observes the rules of the game. IN SCHOOL lie observes all of the regulations. IN LIFE he respects the civic laws and the demands of the community. IS FAIR ON THE FIELD he competes in a clean, hard-fought but friendly way; he helps an injured opponent; he has no alibis. IN SCHOOL he does not waste his time nor that of the faculty: he does not copy his classmates' work; he docs not receive aid from any source on his examinations. IN LIFE he sees impartially both sides of a question; he uses no underhanded methods; he is not influenced by money; he is not partial in administering justice. Page Ninety-four COACH STILLWELL For three eventful years Coach Stillwell has traversed a path of happy ways, with pleasant companionship. When first he entered this way he was filled with the desire to do. Inter with the joy of conquest and finally, with the exhiliration of victory, as he fought his way over the hazards of this still pleasant road and matched his strength against the greatest odds which he encountered. He has led his teams over that elevated road which is bordered by fair play and good sportsmanship and which leads directly to success. Three years he has forged his way on.this road of which we speak, leading behind him his warriors of the gridiron, diamond and court. Three years the road has been uncrossed by other roads but now another intercepts it. This way leads also over hazards and difficulties and is called the road of Business. Coach Stillwell feels that those traveling his acustomcd road have had fair play become their only standard, recognized and followed by all. Even so, the road which he has chosen to travel in the future is not so blessed, some of its followers do not know how to lift a fellow traveler from a pitfall. Coach Stillwell goes to help enrich the followers of that less fortunate road. We. however, still travel our accustomed way. without his bodily leadership but with the earnest principles lie practiced indented on our minds. We seek to fight our way in like manner, not hoping to surpass his record but with the desire to equal it. Our way goes on as does his. Sometime in the future when weary miles have been crossed our road will again meet that of Business, then, we will be reunited and may once more forge ahead together, encouraged by our association in the past conquered miles. We do not then bid “Farewell but part with a friendly handshake and with the thought that we will soon meet again. Page Ninety tlx 1 BAGLEY SANFORI) HAIL TO THE CHIEF! We remember way back in '22 when Phillips walked through the football season with a slate clean of defeat: in '23 when Phillips won Championship title: and we remember beginning of the ’24 gridrion season, with Coach Duck Stillwell with his four lone letter-men leading a Iohk line of subs to compete again for the title. The backbone and mainstay of that Wrangling Eleven was Captain Herman Sanford. He has held an end berth for the last three years, and there will be none missed more than he. The last year he secured a place on all-Southern team and he well deserved the honor. He is “f.rst to win. first to grin, and first in the hearts of his fellow-men!” Sandy is finishing his brilliant career this June taking with him the admiration of both students and faculty. — • • • • -Page Ninety-seven ABE JAFFEE As a consistent ball totcr Abe has few superiors. No man on the team worked harder than he did and defeat hurt him more than any physical injury could have. Whenever a few yards were needed and Abbic was called on to carry the ball, he Rave his all and seldom failed to gain ground. A knack of twisting and turning enabled him to gain a yard or two after being tackled. He was considered the hardest man on the squad to stop. HOWARD CRANFORD Folks, this is Howard Burwell Cranford. Captain elect of the 1925 football team. Fatty plays guard and. altho this is his first year as a varsity man he more than made good. His 180 pounds was an obstablc that opponents found hard to remove. Fatty never admitted defeat and was always in the thick of the fight playing his heart out that we might win. Howard should prove to be an even better man next year than he was this year and we are all looking for great things from him. IKE FEAGIN Ike could always be depended on to give his all while in the game. At the beginning of the season he did not have much experience, but a willingness to work and a quick mind soon made him one of the mainstays of the line. In the game with Central of Chattanooga Ike showed what kind of stuff he was made of. Feagin entered the game when Smith had to retire and he instantly showed Central that it was useless to try to gain over him. Ike will not be with Phillips next year and his loss will be felt- He will always be remembered as one who was willing to work. JACK SHIPLEY Jack lias proved to the Phillips student-body that you do not necessarily have to have might to play football. He does just about all that a backiield man is supposed to do. When it comes to a broken-field runner Jack can’t be beat and at the last of the season he developed into a punter who could boot the ball between 40 to 60 yards con-sistently. Great things arc expected from Jack next fall and with the experience of this year lie should make a valuable man for Phillips. RALPH GRAVLEK If anyone deserved a varsity ”P Ralph did. His unselfish willingness to work and his never-give-up spirit places him high in the esteem of alt Phillips students. “Sheik first came out in 22 and because of inexperience and lack of might was unable to make the team. Instead of becoming discouraged and quitting he proved his metal by sticking it out and scrubbing in 22 and 23”. This year it fell to Ralph’s lot to till the most important position on the team quarterback . and he filled it well and ran the team smoothly. HOWELL GUIN Red was about the hardest hitting backficld man on the team and besides his ability to hit hard Howell could step a distance in a breezy way. Red began ripping the opponents’ lines front the very beginning but because of his speed hr was shifted to half where lie tore off many long runs. Great things arc expected from our Alternate Captain next fall. He should be one of the best men on the squad and with a little more coaching should make one of the best punters in the state. Page Ninety-nine JOHN BARTLETT Phillips has always been noted for her centers” and Hooks is no exception. Being shifted from tackle to center at the first of the season he had no difficulty in upholding Phillip's record. Johnny's ability to break through and follow the ball made him feared by all our opponents.' Crimson and White supporters will remember for many years his long runs on the gridiron. . ’ 0 We arc sorry our All-State center will be absent when roll is called next September. but our loss is someone elsc's gain and we wish Hooks every success in college football. MOLTON SMITH Moley” has been termed the backbone” of the Phillips defence. Altho injured for .1 greater part of the season this husky athlete was in the thick of every play giving his all and proving thnt despite injuries he was one of the best men in the Phillips camp. Moley scrubbed” in 22. played guard in '23. and this year, because of his experience. he was shifted to tackle where he proved to be one of the most important cogs in the Crimson machine. CECIL ANDERSON Cy has served a two year apprenticeship in football at Phillips and a more expert craftsman will be hard to find. Mis ability to catch passes, break up plays started around his end, and play heads-up football won for him the honor of being placed on the all-Statc team. Cy is a three letter man at Phillips, playing center on the basketball team and Ritcher on the baseball team. He is one of that kind who arc hard to replace and we ate to sec him go. However, a good thing should not be kept but passed on for others to profit by. Page One Hundred SNAPPY SCENES Red” Guin in one of his favorite stunts, hurdling the line ior a long gain. Rcd'‘ knocks half of 'em down and jumps the rest. This shows him clearing Allen with the field practically open for a long run. Though Enslcy came out first. Guin did much of such hurdling and twisting as this. It takes a speedy man to overtake him and a heavy one to down him. Just ONE oi the times an Etowah man was downed in his tracks. These fellows lacked speed rather than brawn. Looks like gravlec has him tight hut even if the man could twist loose he would still have I-ott and Bartlett to dispose of. Some things arc impossible—such as passing Bartlett, breaking away from Gravlec or hurdling Lott.

Levvy has yet to round the determined Bartlett and the hard tackling Guin. With Levvy's speed and weight, he was in many instances able to plow his way across. The ball in Jaife’s arms, a clear field ahead. Ooooh! Abe isn't smiling, but he might well be. Such games as he gave arc something to smile about, we would say.

The decisive score of the games which went down as victories for the Crimson, the comparative closeness of the score of the game which was lost, and finally the all-around play of the quintet when in action either at home or abroad attests unmistakably to the fact that Coach Stillwell produced an organization of superior calibre, fit in every respect to represent Phillips on the court. The Varsity for 1925 was composed of Herman Sanford, captain and sensational guard; Anderson, the rangy one. who starred in many of the games at his old position at center; Jaffcc. the plucky little forward whose aim was always accurate; Goldstein, Barclift. Stewart, and Weinstein, highly efficient members ever ready to help Jaffcc increase the score. Other guards that played for Phillips arc Smith, McMillan, and Brauncr. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

Coach Stevens had his team in fine shape and ready for the first bout, every position was properly filled and each man doing the right thing at the right time. Coach Ham Stevens is fast proving his efficiency in coaching a baseball nine. Ray for Ham . The team was built up around the bulwark and old standby, Herman Sanford. Sandy as usual proved himseli a star. His favorite position is first base and he nabs every ball within a ten foot radius. He is also a mean hitter and never has been seen to lose his pep or fail to encourage the team in an uphill contest. Sandy is our idea of a real sportsman. Phillips hasn't had a nine in several years that pulled together as these men do. They play without inner friction being a harmonious crew which is making them efficient and almost invincible. These boys arc remembering Coach Stillwell’s fundamental teachings of baseball which he taught so diligently to last year's squad. The student body turned out in full force to back the valiant warriors of the diamond. This bunch of enthusiastics gave the team the sponsoring they deserved and let them know how we regard them. The persona] of the team is as follows: left outfield. Richard; center field, Jones; right field. Avant; first base, Sanford; second base, Laney; short stop. Perry; third base. Chapman; catcher, Heard; pitcher, Anderson, Stallings, Hydcngcr, Sington. Pate One Hundred Six TRACK TEAM “FOUR! No, not lunch checks or theatre thickets but Coach Cooper giving his cinder artists a “warm-up by taking four laps. The team this year is practically built around Captain Jenkins, a veteran, from last year’s squad. Although there arc only two men from last year’s team, on which to build a team, some excellent “finds have been made. Daniels, ex-Barker luminary and Andrews, another ex-Grammar school star, arc both close to ten-second men, and along with Lott. Abernathy. Harris, Peters and Roberts are expected to hold their own in anything from the 100 to the 440. Jenkins can help share the burden in these if necessary while Gwin is relied upon for the 880 and 440. The only veteran for the distance runs is Krebs, who is being gromtned for the half mile and mile. However, ample material has been found in Miller, who has a stride” likely to make Nurmi throw away his track shoes and go back to Finland. Mathews. Wooten. Rich. Ard and Johnson, are all showing good material. Hope for a good showing is also bright in the weights and jumps. Lott tosses the shot discus farther than the officials find it convenient to measure, while we all know what “Sandy” can do. Daniels, along with several others, is being mentioned for the high jump. Ard is expected to help in the pole vaulting. This squad is slated to put Phillips in the track world. Coach Cooper an ex-Southern and Illinois track man, also former Coach of T. M. I., works unceasingly with the boys each afternoon. With the backing of the student body, such able tutelage and such material, great things are expected this year. Pe e One Hundred Seven .1 f I I This hunch of well trained players were positively unbeatable. Freshmen, Sopohmores and even Seniors recognize their title which speed, accuracy and team work won for them. This outfit didn’t have a single weak spot, guards, forwards, centers, all were equal. Captain Martha Harris with her past experience and her accurate aim is probably the shining start of her team. However, Lillian and Cahoon were her right hand players and her never failing co-forwards, as guards the impassable MaeMohn stood out with Kyche also playing well. Evelyn Tanner was everything in the center, but was forced to have substitutes for her, McAvoy played well in this emergency. Caldwell, Pitts and Brittain all proved themselves speedy players. Besides the tournament champs who were awarded letters, winning class teams were also picked. For the Seniors, League 1 came out on top. This whole team played well together. Captain Annie Sue Waldrop changing from her accustomed position as running center played forward all the year in a scrape. Margaret Hamilton and Wingate played excellent games and showed themselves accurate shots. Fahey and Sharpe are the best pair guards in school and were the mainstay of the Seniors. Hood and Rowe did the jumping while Windham played side center, always getting the ball. Fletcher though not practiced with either Fahev or Sharpe played a good game as guard all year. Though the Juniors of League 1 lost to those of League 2 it was a close fight. Captain Eleanor Sudduth was in on every play, passing, coaching and jumping her best. Suds is playing her second year as running center and looks good for next year. Winter and Campbell played-well together and held the best forwards to 0 scores. Osalcc Chamblce, the forward who when she has a chance, never misses a goal played her best this year. Davis and Willoughby were her mates as forwards. Miller, a newcomer, proved her metal as jumping center. Saunders and Adair both played well when they had a chance. With this bunch going up it sure looks good for the Seniors next year. P� ge One Hundred Eight ! Ja Page One Hundred Eleven ALUMNI By ;i .school's graduates you shall know it; and no school has produced more distinguished or more versatile alumni than has Phillips''—still known to some as Central— Many of the alumni are leaders in Birmingham schools. Mr. C. J. Going and Mr. Chester Bandman, arc principals of the two largest city high schools. In facultatc of Phillips arc Misses Lynch. Senn, Montgomery. Tuttle, Williams. Chase, Robinson, Castlcman, C ross. Dryer. Thomas and Messrs West, Hall, Keller, Cooper and Wright. Miss Lula Bradford is supervisor of primary work in Birmingham schools; and Miss Margaret Mc-Adory is supervisor of art for Jefferson County schools. Of course, other professions, law, medicine, dramatic, music and business have claimed many. Hugh Morrow, Jclks Cabaniss. and Alan Daly arc in law. Carl Fox is a local specialist, Grace and Tinsley Harrison arc doctors at John Hopkins, while Estes Hargis is an interne at Mayo Brothers. Mrs. Annie Mays Miller dramatizes Mother Goose Pjays for children. Russell Filtnore has entertained us for the past two summers with his clever acting. Mildred Scales and Beulah Barnes are also stars of the (legimate) stage. Klise Sparrow, the first Miss Birmingham, has made quite a hit in New York, and because of her unusual talents has been adopted by Howard Chandler Christy. Mrs. Minnie McN'icll Carr. Evelyn Going, and Mae Bell arc well known in Musical Circles. Jessica Ingram is on the staff of the News. Maud Gamhell is president of the Business and Professional Womans Club. Robert Strickland is vice president of a film company in Atlanta. Croom Beatty, Frank Rushton, Hubert Drennen and John Henley arc successful business men of their home city. Naturally, since our state University is so near, one will find many of our Alumni at Alabama. Louise Perry. Virginia Donovan and Earl Weaver are members of the Phi Beta Kappa, honor fraternity. Elizabeth Stevens is a member of a society, for exceptional students in Math. _ Reginald Thomas and E. Sykes arc on the Glee Club. In the Rlacktriars are many of Phillips former dramatic stars, George H. Clark. Bryant Sells, Jack Turner, Bryan Chanccy, Fulton Clark, and Gilbert Green. Ruth Dewberry and Martin Smith have written plays, which have been staged by the Blackfriars. In a volume of poems published by the University, arc poems by Virginia Donovan. Julia Riser and Dorothy Winters. Although many of our alumni chose Alabama, other well known colleges have claimed some of our most brilliant graduates. Susan Cobbs. Vice-president of the class of '23. won the intcr-collcgiatc debate for Randolph-Macon this year, Catherine Grubb and Virginia Shook passed the college entrance examination and are attending Smith, while Margaret Lampkin was among the highest who passed the competitive examination and is at Wellesley. Duane Lyons was admitted to Harvard without an examination because of his Phillips record. Howard Leake, a former president of the Hilliard, is on the faculty at Washington and Lee, and Luther Reynolds is editor of the Ring Turn Phi. Henry Richard. who has delighted us so much with his playing at the Little Theatre, and Richmond Beatty, who is one of our former orators, arc members of the Oiciran Delta Kappa honor fraternity at Birmingham-Southern. James Childers won the Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford from Alabama. Thus, one finds Phillips or Central graduates in every field of human endeavor. These alumnia have brought honor and fame to our school. May the class of '25 follow in their footsteps, and continue to glorify the name of our Alma Mater. —James DeValsc Mann, '25. e One Hundred Thirteen IN APPRECIATION Miss Anna Boden has devoted the major portion of her life to the school. She has served loyally and unselfishly at all times thru all difficulties. This she has done because she has a deep and abiding interest in her work, her pupils, the hoys of her club and the whole student body of the school. Now she has gone; we miss a familiar figure from the halls, and feel the absence of a true friend. Page One Hundred Fourteen SUPERLATIVE DEGREES M«m Dignified ... Mum Carefree _ .

There arc various organizations such as dramatic clubs, literary societies, a classic club (which by the way is a Latin Club but as I-atin sounds a bit unprepossessing it is called Classic ). Science Clubs and numerous others. We meet the first and third Fridays of each month and instead of having to take time from our afternoons the teachers have been kind enough to give us an hour in the morning by shortening the periods. These meetings arc pleasant recreation after two weeks of not exactly monotony but somthing that verges on it rather closely. We enjoy interesting programs and have many good times, but don't infer that we do nothing but amuse ourselves. No indeed! For instance, one club has undertaken to amuse the neigh-borhecd house children by story-telling nice a week, and parties—- yhcn the treasury permits. However, this is not the only example, for other clubs arc doing work just as commendable. In addition to these clubs, a Mathmematics Honor Society has been founded whose members arc doing fine work by helping those who arc failing. I am sure that we have all enjoyed our work so much that we will want to keep the same clubs after we come to Phillips (if we ever do—which looks doubtful.) Minnie Lee Miller, III semester. Paul Haync, won frst prize at State Art Exhibit at Montcvallo. COUNCIL OF PAUL HAYNE The Council of the Paul Haync High School is composed of the Presidents from the different session rooms.

And again, every student's in need of a friend. —Sylvia Rich. 'Twas midnight— Not a star looked down Upon the terror-stricken town, A cold and stormy east wind blew. As down the street two Spaniards flew. Each halted—and in haste each drew A dagger, long and cold and blue. Four dark eyes flashed; Each Spaniard bold Raised high his weapon, blue and cold. Two daggers struck with grating slash! They’d plunged them into— A PLATE OF HASH! Ed. Baer: The boss is going to give me an interest in the business. Robt. Drake: That’s great! Ed: He said if I didn’t take an interest he’d fire me.

It is only a comparatively short time that business has been recognized as a profession and it is interesting to note that just a few months ago Harvard University issued a pamphlet intitled Business a I rofcssion . For over a third of a Century Wheeler has been training men and women for business positions. Thousands date their success in life from enrollment in Wheeler . Some of the most prominent business and professional men of the South are Wheeler graduates. Our courses have been constantly stengthened and broadened and arc most comprehensive. In fact, the courses of WHEELER BUSINESS COLLEGE appeal to both the collegiate graduate and under-graduate—to the graduate who wishes some special training in the technique of business before entering on the active duties of business life and to the under-graduate, who is obliged to discontinue his studies before completion of his course and who wishes to get a good general business training as well as to specialize in business. The following courses arc given: Commercial, Stenographic. Com- bination. Secretarial, Salesmanship and Business Efficiency. Advanced Accounting and Auditing, (This course leads to degree of Master of Accounting). SEND FOR OUR THIRTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE Wheeler Business College BIR MINGH A M.
