TO THE FACULTY
"There lies your Land," you said to us, and then IVe looked and saw it shining in the sun,
The glowing gardens of the Ancient Men,
I he pleasant fields and cities dearly won.
And then you told us how it came to be,
Holding us spellbound with the mighty story:
And we clamored to go forth and see,
You led us in the torturous path to glory.
Often we stumbled, fell, and falling wept.
You helped us to our feet and dried our tears.
You cheered us, and your kind eyes never slept,
} ou kept us in the path, and banished fears.
—A nd now, the If right Land lies within our view— O Masters! take our deep love tor your due!
—Sarah Zimmerman ’21.

THE OATH OF THE ATHENIAN YOUTH
H e will never bring disgrace to this, our city, by any act of dishonesty or cowardice, nor ever desert our suffering comrades in the ranks; we will fight for the ideals and sacred things of the city, both alone and with many; we will revere and obey the city’s laws and do our best to incite a like respect and reverence in those above us who are prone to annul or to set them at naught; we ivill strive unceasingly to quicken the public’s sense of civic duty; thus, in all these ways, we will transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.

Class History
Once upon a time, previous to the year 1920, Stivers, like Steele, was occupied by only Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. During this year, Freshmen were entered at Stivers, and the following September, together with the green, wide-eyed students from Parker, constituted the Sophomore class. On the whole, during this second year, these youngsters made an impression because of their bubbling vitality.
Advancing to the dignity of Juniors, we aided in publishing a Chronicle which was something new, and presented three very successful one-act plays for the first time in the school’s history. The class was, of course, organized, and the officers—Denver Young, Mildred Theobald, Margaret Braun, and James Parrish, added their originality when the Farewell was given as a climax to the year. Through prudent management, the treasury was not empty when June came.
Entering into the superiority of the last year, the Seniors, though accomplishing nothing unusual, handled the ordinary duties in an extraordinary manner. The class was at once organized, the officers being James Bender, president; Bessie Hill, vice president; Josephine Benson, secretary, and Fred Marquardt, treasurer. The rings, pins, and invitations were ordered, the Annual was published, Commencement was looked forward to with anticipation and regret, and the Senior class day was given.
The last days of the year were filled with a restlessness and reluctance which is always found among Seniors. It is the ending and the beginning for the Class of 1923.

103The Make-Time School
The Make-Time is a special school of Stivers open to capable, earnest boys and girls from the seventh grade who wish, for any reason whatever, to save a year of their school life. We cover the eighth grade fundamentals as well as four high school subjects; namely, English, Latin, Algebra, and Ancient History.
This school provides for two types—the accelerated, and the average but capable pupil. We have a few pupils of the accelerated type, but the greater number consists of the chronologically retarded.
The boys of the Make-Time have had more varied opportunities this year than ever before. To those not taking Latin the following departments have been open: manual training, printing, auto construction, tailoring, and forging. The girls not taking Latin have substituted Home Economics.
A period a day is given to each of the following subjects: arithmetic, grammar, algebra, English. Three periods a day are given to history—one regular and two short noon periods. The Latin pupils have the last two periods for recitation and study, while the rest of the class are taking the industrial work which they substituted for Latin.
We have manifold opportunities for the correlation of related subjects: as, arithmetic with algebra, grammar with Latin and English, and English with everything.
Pupils who satisfactorily cover the work of the Make-Time will be promoted into Second Year High School with four credits.
The Trade School
The work of the prevocational boys has advanced each year .and at present this department is known as the Trade School.
Many boys who attended last year returned to complete the course. These boys are in demand at many factories and those who have made good were recommended and entered industry. They work two weeks and then return to school two weeks where they are given such academic instruction as will qualify them for that work.
Some boys expressed a desire to take a regular high school course and by diligent effort have succeeded and will enter the freshman class next September.
Educational trips to the important factories proved very beneficial for they formed the basis for the work done by the boys in shop English.
The aim of these trips is to obtain information and to teach the boys how to investigate problems. Most of them can make an oral or written report of their findings in good English sentences.
The work of the Trade School in all departments is worthy of much praise. They have done' work for the Board of Education and the Dramatic Art Class which was not included in their regular course. The interest is growing and the boys are happy in their work.

106Football Review
STIVERS enjoyed a very successful football season owing to the fact that the team went through the full nine games without a defeat. It is true we played one scoreless tie game and two others were very close, but nevertheless, they were wins.
The successful season was due to the hearty co-operation on the part of the players for team work and team morale. No doubt the new football uniforms had a good deal to do toward helping the team. No player can play good football in a tattered, old, shaggy uniform.
The season started off with a victory over West High of Columbus, by a 32 to 0 score. The next week followed with another victory over our ancient foe, Piqua. This defeat was probably the worst Piqua has ever received on her own field. Our boys didn’t stop until they had rolled up a 46 to 6 score.
The Hamilton game proved to be of the best of the season. Hamilton had a
veteran team and Stivers had to use everything to win 13 to 7. Anyone who saw the
game will say it was a “corker.”
The Middletown game proved to be even harder than the Hamilton. The Middies also had a veteran team and Stivers had no easy time to win 7 to 6. The game was played in the forenoon while Old Sol was pouring down bis rays of heat until the mercury registered 90 degrees. The day was too warm for a football game.
The following week the team traveled to Lima where Lima Central was met. Stivers had another close call. We thought we were lucky to win at all considering
everything. Ask any of the players, they will tell you why. I he score was 13 to 12.
Next came the big intersectional game with Huntington, West Virginia. Big preparations were made for this game, including assemblies, band rehearsals and anything to stir up “pep.” Last year Stivers traveled to Huntington where it was defeated 21 to 13. The Mountaineers brought with them practically the same team and only the week before they won a victory over the crack Parkersburg eleven who held the State Championship.
Every one was anticipating a close, hard-fought game. The game proved a walk-a-way for Stivers, 57 to 0. The Columbus East Hi game proved another easy victory which Stivers won by a 27 to 0 score.
The next week found Stivers idle, yet the team and all its followers were anxiously waiting the big Turkey Day game with Steele. The teams had been doped to be about even in ability'; however, many thought Steele had the edge. Steele had met two early season reversals but their improvement was rapid and by Thanksgiving time their team was a dangerous combination.
The day proved to be ideal. The field was in perfect condition and no one ever saw a larger crowd at a football game in Dayton. Triangle Park was too small that day. The game was a wonderful climax to a wonderful season and while we didn’t win we had to be satisfied with a 0 to 0 score.
It is the writer’s opinion that the Steele-Stivers game was the most stubbornly fought contest ever witnessed between two high schools. First Steele would gain, then Stivers, but neither had the punch to put it over.
To pick the “Stars” of the season would be no easy task. It is true a few showed up better at times than others hut Stivers had no “Stars.”
There was team play and plenty of every day hard plugging which kept the team on top. VVe shall miss, however, boy’s like Denny' and Russ, Hunk, Al. Patsy, Toby, Red, Pinkie, Russ Kramer, Hawkshaw and Dutch, but we are happy to know there are plenty of good players left to fill their shoes.
We are expecting a good team next year. We can 'have it—we must have it. Come on, scrubs, let’s go.

FOOTBALL SQUADRUSSELL YOUNG—Captain 1922—Fullback (Russ)
Russ always played a “whale” of a game at full. It was almost impossible for him to be thrown by the best tackier on the opposing team. Few will forget the hard plunging of Rusty in the Steele game.
VERNON SCHWAB—Captain 1923—Guard (Bum)
“Bum” was always able to get through the opponent’s line. By his fighting spirit he has upheld the Schwab name. He is the ideal leader for 1923.
IllDENVER YOUNG—Quarterback
(Denny)
Denny’s ability as a field general enabled us to go through the season undefeated. He was a player well versed in all departments of the game.
WILLIAM O’RYAN—Center (Patsy)
A center who took many a hard knock, played a fine defensive game, and made holes which spelled victory for the team.
ALFRED RICHARDS—Tackle
(Al)
A1 is a finished player. He is a tackier that made his opponent feel that he had been hit.
112RUSSELL KRAMER—Tackle (Russ)
Russ and A1 were a pair of players of such high caliber that Coach Lingrel worried little over these positions. Kramer always showed the spirit that wins.
RALPH DAVIS—Halfback (Dutch)
Here is a real man! Between Davis and the Boilermaker the laurels must be divided. His sturdy playing was only equalled by the fine showing of Russ ''t oung.
HARRY SHAW—Guard (Hawk)
A man who played offensively as well as defensively. He made his opponents understand that they were playing football.
113HOWARD CAMPBELL—End {Toby)
1 oby was a fleet end. He grabbed many a pass that made a cold chill run down the opponents’ back. He and Smith solved Coach’s flank problem to perfection.
CHESTER SMITH—End {Chet)
Smith always got down on the punts. He broke up many plays which would have spelled defeat. He could also snare passes with the best of them.
HERMAN RAIFF— Half
(II iram )
A wonderful offensive man! He worked nicely with the other three backs. Raiff could always be depended upon for several yards at a critical moment.
114FRANK SMOLAR—Half (.Hunk)
A jinx followed Hunk practically all season. Injuries kept him from showing his real ability. However, when he got started he played real ball.
EDWARD WELSH—Halfback (Pinkey)
Pinkey, the speed demon of the team, was small but mighty.
ARTHUR ESSLINGER—End
(Art)
How he could tackle! It was only the ability of such ends as Smith and Campbell that kept “Art” out of the regular lineup.
1151
EVERETT JEFFERSON—End
Ueff)
Jeff gave a wonderful account of himself in the Steele game. He was an end whose only handicap was lack of weight.
JOHN STAHL—Cheer Leader (Johnnie)
Much credit for the spirit shown by Stivers’ students during the football season must go to Stahl. Johnnie, you have earned the coveted “S.”
WILLIAM ROSSITER—Center
{BUD
When Pat O’Ryan was on the side line his place was filled by a capable man. Bill played in many games and always gave a good account of himself.
116117Basket Ball Review
S tivers h as had good basket ball teams for many years. Whenever the name Stivers is mentioned, one immediately thinks of basket ball and the many times Stivers has won the city championship and also the state title.
Stivers team this year was equal to the best in the state. It’s true we didn’t win any state title this year but we must not forget that one school can not always be state champions. We are satisfied this season with 12 victories and 5 defeats and the city championship.
Our team got off to a slow start. We had trouble defeating Moraine Park and Sidney in our first two battles and the Alumni game was a thriller.
After the holidays the team began going better and easily defeated Piqua bv an overwhelming score. 'I he Hamilton fracas was perhaps the best game ever played on Stivers g in. Had it not been for the wonderful foul shooting ability of Hamilton’s midget forward we could have won easily since we scored 13 field goals to Hamilton’s 8.
1 he flu epidemic played havoc with our team’s chances since it kept Capt. D. Young out of the lineup for three weeks and several others were at times too sick to give their best.
Our first game with Steele proved to be a farce. It was a very poor exhibition of basket ball on the part of both teams. Stivers lacked the old-time fight and let Steele win 20 to 18.
I hen a defeat by Richmond and the following night by Springfield made things look very discouraging. However, these games were played while three regulars had the flu.
I he Orange and Black seemed to have hit their stride the following week when they easily defeated Mt. Vernon, last year's State Champs, and Lima Central in order. Norwood was easily disposed of while we were getting ready for our second tilt with Steele.
The second game proved to be a thriller. Stivers showed much improvement in all departments and after a bitter struggle won 26 to 25. The third and deciding game was played just one week later when Stivers won again, and earned the right to hold the city championship. The score tells the story, but Harlow’s foul shooting kept Steele always in the running. Stivers made 11 field goals to Steele’s 6.
The season as a whole was a success. The team after a slow start developed into a well-balanced team with Herrman and English as leading scorers. Fenner helped considerably during the last half of the season. Denny, Russ, Hunk, and Welsh were a set of guards hard to beat. While they lacked an eagle eye for the basket, they always kept fighting until the last whistle. Many will remember Hunk’s and Denny’s long shots in the last Steele game.
To pick a star would be going too far. There was no one individual who deserves that honor. Had it not been for the fine team spirit which was displayed all season and the sheer determination to win. Stivers might have lost several more games.
We shall miss Denny, Russ, Hunk, Sam, Balsky, Chet, and Pinkie next year, but we are happy to know that Horace, Kick, Pimp, Harper, and many others will be with us.

BASKETBALL SQUADDENVER YOUNG—Guard
{Denny)
Denny made a capable leader for the team. He played both forward and guard equally well, and was master of every situation.
ELDEN FENNER—Forward (Pimp)
‘‘Pimp” was the find of the season. He was one of the main causes of the team recovering from its slump. Fenner should make a good record next year.
SAMUEL HERRMAN—Forward {Sam)
Herrman always contributed his share of the field goals. It will take a real player to fill Sam’s place next year.
121RUSSELL YOUNG—Guard
(Russ)
Russ was the mainstay of the Stivers defense. Few opponents were able to get through this player.
SEYMOU R RAMBY—Forward
(Kick)
Ram by gained experience last season which should stand him in good stead in future years.
EDWARD WELSH—Guard (Red)
Pinkey was a hard fighter who always played with his heart and soul. His defensive tactics left little to be desired.
DONALD BALSKY—Forward (Don)
Don played well when he was called upon. He was a fast man who has had much experience.
V2.2
FRANK SMOLAR—Guard (Hunk)
Smolar’s uncanny eye for the basket pulled his team out of more than one tight situation.
HORACE ENGLISH—Center (Horse)
Although English generally delivered when a basket was needed, his long suit was making almost impossible shots against Steele.
CHESTER SMITH—Center (Red)
“Chet” played a fine floor game and was always ready to start when needed.
HOWARD HARPER—Forward (Harp)
Harper did not get much chance last season but we expect great things from him next year.

130The Athletic Girl
HAVE you noticed the way people walk on the street? You will see many examples of poor carriage.
For the past few years, women and girls have not been able to step freely, owing to the narrow skirts. Have you ever contrasted the mincing step with the free swing of the gymnasium girl ?
She stands with toes pointing straight forward, head erect, chin in, chest up, waistline flat.
She walks well, because she has learned the value of sensible shoes, and can walk and stand without getting tired and irritated.
She sits all the way back in her desk or chair so that the lower part of her back touches the desk back, and the weight of her body rests on the full length of her thighs.
She has learned that bad posture is sometimes due to disease, but when due to bad habits it is very serious indeed and she hastens to correct the defect.
She has learned that the “debutante slump makes the old lady’s hump,” and since she does not want an unnecessary hump, whether she is young or old, she corrects the habit.
After all, the human body is what we make it, muscle nerve cells undoubtedly reflect our previous hygienic history. Nutrition, strength of tissue and organic function always go hand in hand with diet, exercise and other personal habits of life.
Every one in this day must have activities of some sort if we wish to keep at the highest point of efficiency. For Father, it may be hitting a little ball over the golf links; for Mother, some of the records that have a blunt way of telling her that she is not exercising hard enough. Brother finds his surplus energy worked off in baseball; and Sister will be active in tennis, hiking and camping.
It is a case of “everybody’s doing it,” and none of us want to be left behind in the race for mental and physical development.
Have you ever tried Walter Camp’s test as to your physical ability’? Here it is: Sit down for a half-hour in an armchair. How do vou get up? Easily and naturally lifting yourself by the muscles of yrour trunk? Or, do you use hands and arms to help you up? That is easy, but a bad sign.
Right about face! Trunk forward, bend! Straighten! Repeat! 1-2 1-2.
—Anne Pope Riley.

151Dramatic Art
The dramatic calendar for the year 1922-23 has been so filled with programs, plays, and festivals that talented members of the department have been uncomfortably busy learning lines and meeting various engagements. The season opened with a group of three one-act plays, “Spreading the News,” “The Knave of Hearts,” and “The Trysting Place.” These plays were so well received that a second performance was given for the Business and Professional Women’s Club, members of which were entertained as guests at Stivers.
The play for the Christmas assembly was “The Nativity” by Rosamond Kimball. The arch built by boys of the school, the tie-dye curtains and the subtle lighting gave a Stuart Walker effect.
On January 21, the Stivers Festival took place at Memorial Hall. Upon this occasion the dramatic students presented “ The Treasure Chest” perhaps the most notable achievement of the department. This masque a school project made possible by the co-operation of many departments particularly by the work of the Art Department, proved to be of such artistic value that 'I'lie Dayton Art Institute sponsored a second performance so that a larger number of people might see and appreciate so colorful a playlet. “The Knave of Hearts” was used in combination with the masque to furnish an evening’s entertainment.
Fhe Junior Plays were given on April 13-14. “Miss Maria,” “Miss Civilization,” and “The Wonder Hat” comprised the group. At the organization of the Parent-Teacher’s Association, April 27, Jules Renard’s, “Carrots,” a touching little play, set most artistically by the art department, pleased the audience.
Many calls have been made by outside organizations for entertainments of various sorts. “Overtones,” a play by Alice Gerstenberg, was presented at a meeting of the Federation of Women’s Clubs. ‘“Fhe Trysting Place” has been repeated six times, at the Soldiers’ Home, at the N. C. R. Community House, at the Fidelity Building Association, and at the Pythian Temple. Various vaudeville performances have been given at the Emerson School, at the Shriner’s Children Party, at churches and club meetings. It has been difficult to meet all the demands.
The Play selected for the Seniors was the “Charm School,” a delightful comedy by Alice Duer Miller and Robert Milton.
This play was presented on May 11-12.

159Here and There
Many have been the perils we have survived this year. The year began with a blaze of heat that actually closed the schools. That’s something you’ll tell your grandchildren about, my dears. We lived through the excitement of a smallpox exposure and intelligence tests only to have the wind try to rip the very roof from over our heads. And then that extra hour ....
It was a proud moment for Stivers when Miami University presented the school with an engraved scroll which set forth that the highest total average in scholarship of any three students from any one high school had been made by three graduates of Stivers. Perhaps no honor that we have won in the past casts more credit on our school than does this recognition.
This has been a great year for innovations. One of the most profitable was the presentation of The Rivals by the Coffer-Miller Players. The mad scramble for seats at the last moment—the tickets-at-any-price attitude—was one of the most interesting manifestations of interest in the affair.
Several rare and valuable collections exist in this school. A public exhibition of these little-known treasures would doubtless be much enjoyed. One of the assistants, for instance, has made a specialty of combs, and it is said that a number of bobbed heads have suffered because of the keenness of her pursuit. Another teacher’s hobby is books. Her collection of the Duchess and Mary J. Holmes is really unusual. A fourth-floor teacher has an equally fascinating display of Alger and Hentv. All the Latin teachers, it would seem, go in for Roman Horse-flesh, but as yet no races have been arranged. The prize collection, it is said, is that owned bv an instructor who has charge of 217 one period every dav. Its official title is “Things They Play With.”
How did we ever get along without our band? The lusty footers and puffers that did such valiant service at the championship games have won a place for themselves that we never want to find vacant.
The Stivers News has developed this year from a monthly into a weekly. Its price has decreased from a dime to one cent. What’s the reason? The establishment of a printing department made it possible to issue the paper every week, and the low price is due to the fact that student labor is used. It is a news sheet, first and last, and as such has won its merits. Next year with added equipment in the printing department, the paper will be larger, but its policy will not be altered.
Tige, Tige, our own Hi Tige!
An oracle shrewd is he.
Read him each week in the Stivers News, And you’ll much wiser be.
The Improvement Association is planning to do its share in procuring a bronze tiger, which will some day be placed on the top of our trophy case. Its anpearance has been delayed, for the noted sculptor who is to do the work has been ill. but we fully realize that a piece of work executed bv Anna Vaughn Hyatt will be well worth waiting for. Isn’t it amazing what a nickel a month from the majority of our students can accomplish? .... Do you pay yours promptly?
160Athletic buttons have their price,
And so do score-cards, too;
For you must pay your dues each month Before there’s one for you.
Debating, that good old indoor sport, is cherished by the Jeffersonian and Olympian literary societies. In the annual battle between these two lively rivals, Olympian again came off victorious, but Jeff has no intention of renouncing debating on that account. They have made plans to meet a hoys’ society of Springfield High on the question of the single six-year term. Let’s hope that another victory will have been won for Stivers by the time this item is read.
Once there was a boy
And he was never sent to two-seventeen
And he never broke o"t of line going to the lunch-room
And he always scraped his dishes
And he even studied during studv periods
And he never borrowed a sheet of paper from anyone
And he never went up the wrong stair way
And he never threw scraps of paper on the floor
But that boy didn’t go to Stivers this year.
One long-hoped-for goal has this year been achieved. A third-year French class has been formed, and the results have been so satisfactory that the additional vear’s work will be a permanent feature. Only those pupils who survive a language into the third or fourth year really appreciate its value.
Orpheum is a new society. Its nurnose is to foster an interest in music, and its organization has been thoroughly justified, as any of its enthusiastic members will tell you. yr'
Another new school organization is the Radio Club. There are manv bovs at Stivers who not onlv are intense1 v interested in this subject but are also bv wav of being exnerts a'ong this line. The members are working towards the installation of a receiving station.
The tronhv case is a treasure chest that every Stiversite guards most iea'ouslv. Acouisitiops ’n nroudlv claimed and stoutly protected. The newest addition is the cup offered bv Miami University to the best high school football team in this section of the state. Now that we have it. let’s keep it.
And thev do sav that there was a freshman who wouldn’t go to a class scheduled for 314 because he didn’t like the looks of the fearsome creature whose habitat is just within the door.
The librarian renorts that the books most frequently demanded are The American-i atio» of F. drear (I Bok. African Game Trails, and Van Loon’s Story of Mankind. Daniel Boone in any guise is alwavs nonular, and, to ouote the high priestess of the books herself, “I have more cal's for Wells’ Outline of History than I ever imagined.”
It is a happv custom at Stivers to inaugurate our Thanksgiving and Christmas vacations bv verv special assemblies. The former occasion is colored by the enthusiasm created bv the coming championship game, but the latter aims to emphasize solely the spirit of Christmas. Never was this more beautifully done than this vear. when a performance of The Nativity was given. Exquisite in every detail, this play will long be remembered.
161Time flies here as well as elsewhere, but at Stivers it also stares us in the face. At every turn we find one of these thoughtful gifts of the City National Bank remolding us of the passing minutes. It lias been an untold convenience and we deeply appreciate their installation, but alas! every silver lining has its cloud—they make it no easier to forget that our day is a period longer.
HANDY REFERENCE FABLE OF EXCUSES
Monday—Forgot mv locker key and had to go back after it.
Tuesday—Street cars were not running.
Wednesday—Had to do an errand for my mother.
Thursday—Street car was held up bv a freight train.
Friday—Our clock was slow and I didn’t know it.
The above are so venerable that all teachers treat them with the proper respect due their age. N. B. Their use does not guarantee immunity from two-seventeen.
What a splendid showing is made when the girls exhibit their work in sewing and millinery. It is gratifying to know, too. that in various city contests Stivers girls have taken prizes for their work. The cooking classes again successfully experimented on the athletes of the school. The training table is a popular institution. Another phase of the work in home economics is the brief course in the care of the sick. It will be a bold measle that will daunt these girls when they take their place as head of some home.
There is no end to the activities of the girls’ literary societies. Social service, school betterment, self-improvement, the pleasures of hospitality—thus the range of their interests is revealed. Every girl in school should wish to be a member of such an organization.

Once a week an opportunity is given to those who are interested to attend a class in Bible study. This fire work is a result of the co-operation between the public schools and the local Council of Churches.

No wonder teachers go crazy.No more pleasant social affair is arranged throughout the year than the Faculty Tea planned by the Girls’ Club of the Y. W. C. A. in honor of the women of the teaching staff. This occasion proves the girls to be charming and delightful hostesses. Another activity in which this club shares is the annual Vocational Conference, by which the opportunities of varied fields of work are set before the girls whose high school days are drawing to a close.
“Hi Y” is just as popular as ever. The meetings this year have not been held at school during the all too brief noon periods, but in the evening at the Y. M. C. A. with supper on the side. It isn’t only the suppers, nor the speakers, nor the boys, but a combination of all three that results in enthusiastic meetings.
The girls at Stivers are really greatly burdened. In the good old davs the only essential against the wear and tear of the day was a rather grimv object known as a powder rag, which when not in use was secreted within one’s inner raiment. This developed into what was fondly called a puff, though why it is hard to tell, as they are very sad. flat-looking affairs. This article had to be properly housed, and thus appeared that round metallic receptacle warranted to create a most enlivening clatter when dropped on the floor. Nor was this the end. Bobbed hair made the comb more necessary to the career of a high school girl than pencils and text-books, and the result is that our maidens are now encumbered with large, shinv, suit-case-like boxes, as they make their wav from class to class. The contents of these treasure chests are more or less sacred, but it is reported that the most up-to-date conta n full-length mirrors and soldering-kits for distressed ear-rings.
Stivers’ cap is becoming a very much beplumed bonnet. A feather to which we point with pride is the recognition won by our work along dramatic, musical, manual, and artistic lines when the Dayton Art Institute sponsored a second performance of The Treasure Chest, the masque which was the outstanding feature of the Winter Festival.
There was a time this year when anyone strolling into the art department might have backed out hastily, thinking he had bv some strange mistake entered a slum tenement. 'I'lie rooms were a maze of clothes line from which was suspended all manner of damp and questionable-looking garments. This intimate displav was p'”'t of the prolonged agony of dyeing that the department suffered to make tV Winter Festival a success.
There was a time this year when anyone strolling into the art department might Rumors of the probable line-up had been so varied and so fanciful beforehand that it was no wonder that the gym was crowded to the bursting point.
One, two, Stivers can do;
Three, four, run tip that score; Five, six. Stivers licks;
Seven, eight, we want nine straight; Nine, ten, they’re fighting men!
163The work of the Latin and Spanish departments is strengthened quite noticeably by their correlating societies. El Circulo Espanol has offered a series of profitable programs, which have been faithfuly prepared and presented. The Classical Club is not at all narrow in its interests, as an examination of their record will prove. They even had their own basketball team.
Wish there was a law that made everybody take just enough Latin to discover that it is utter nonsense to say “report buck.”
Pupils in the city schools share the responsibilities of the grown-up citizenry. We at Stivers know this is true, for we recall how often this year we have helped to distribute literature the purpose of which was to make the world very unsafe for diphtheria germs and mad dogs.
During Physical Education Week selected groups from both the girls’ and boys’ gymnasium classes demonstrated to the public what fine work Stivers can do along this line. The interperetative dancing of the girls has been stressed this year with very effective results. To appreciate that the boys can create beauty as well as physical vigor, one has only to watch the track team in action. Track and field athletics possess a very real charm.
The high cost of living took another swoop upward when pupils found themselves barred—and rightly—from using the office telephone. If you just must phone, drop a nickel in the slot.
Two-seventeen is a place of woe Where sinners are collected.
Each day a score or maybe more, Whose crimes have been detected, Behind that door from three to four, With the teacher who’s selected,
Pray long and fervently that they From encores be protected.
To the student who spends his days in the academic haunts above, the basement floor of our school is a revelation. He knows the gym and pool, of course, but is he so sure that he can make his way through the maze of shops without getting lost? The print-shop, the forge room, the wood-shop, the garage (that’s shorter than automobile construction department ) the engine room, and the great furnaces give this layer of our building an atmosphere of its own.
Next fall Roosevelt will take its place in the Dayton high school family. Stivers offers now its sincere wishes for a glorious career and assures the new school that it can count on the sympathy and friendship of the Fifth Street Eiger.
We have all enjoyed reading School Progress, the monthly publication authorized by the board of education. It was one of our seniors who named the paper—another triumph for Stivers.
164HI TIGE’S GOLDEN TREASURY
I am monarch of all I survey,
My rank there is none to dispute—
I’ve majored and minored correctly, And I’ve two extra credits to boot!
-------o-------
A slumber did his spirit seal,
He snored above his books;
It was a shame he could not feel His comrades’ envious looks.
-------o-------
Ye athletes of old Stivers,
That guard our trophy case!
Whose skill has won a hundred games, And put our foes to chase!
Our glorious past shall ever serve To spur you on to win,
And sweep aside in mighty pride Our rival’s boastful din.

ADMONITION TO A FRESHMAN
Be in your seat at eight-fifteen,
And, O, ye gods and fishes!
Before you leave the dining room Be sure to scrape your dishes.
-------o-------
Of all the candy in the land The best is made by Dieter;
It’s bound to be in great demand, Because there’s none that’s sweeter.
-------o------
A major is a trifling thing In a freshman’s estimation,
But he learns to treat it seriously Ere he comes to graduation.

Two-ten was once the time to go
From school in leisure free;
But now we stay till three, and, oh, The difference to me!

The National Cash Register Company has always gone forward because it has never stopped going to school. For forty years we have been studying the needs of storekeepers.
Merchants all over the world have been our teachers. They have told us what they need. They have suggested valuable improvements in our registers.
In our Schoolhouse we discuss the problems that merchants bring to us, and learn how to build improved machinery that will solve these problems.
Many free educational classes are conducted by the company for employees. These classes give our people an opportunity to learn and to advance themselves.
Naturally, these classes benefit merchants as well, because our better trained workers are enabled to build a product that is constantly improving in quality.
