RANDAL f - - AYNE TOWNSHIP was formed 1n 1834 It was a part of Allen County and extended to the Logan county line In 1836 Goshen township was taken from the south side of Wayne This left Wayne SIX miles east and west and four and one-half mlles north and south In 1848 Auglaize county was formed and by this act Wayne township of Allen county became Wayne township of Augla1ze In 1838 the township was laid off 1n four sub-d1str1cts No '1 lay on the east side No 2 1n the southwest corner No 3 in the northwest corner and N 0 4 on the south side between 1 and 2 Waynesfield at this time did not ex- 1st but the first school house within the v1cin1ty of the village was built in district No 2 on Wm Pepple s farm about three-fourths f a mile southeast of the square It was a log building Wlth a clapboard roof puncheon floor and paper wmdows greased with Qcoon fat. It had an old fashioned fire place with a stick chimney, there was not a nail in the building 5 the roof was fastened on with heavy weight poles and oak pins, and the door was hung on wooden hinges. A huge puncheon board, split from an oak log and hewn smooth with an adz was placed against the wall be- neath the long paper window which served as a writing desk. In front of the blazing fire were long benches made from logs split in two, with the fiat side up, and although they were sup- posed to be hewn smooth they were usually possessed of a suffi- cient amount of splinters to keep the boys awake. Here on these rough benches, without backs, sat the little urchins from morn- ing 'till night, each holding in his hands a broad wooden paddle, on one side of which was pasted his A B C's, and on the other the A B Abs. These were torn from his older brother's book, and if the little fellow did not pay a sufficient amount of attention to his wooden substitute, the Master called him to his side and laying him across his lap, he would apply the paddle as an antidote for 16 I ,, X . up X X Y s . s X.-..

The big boys spent a good deal of time gfvt- ting wood for the hungry fire-place. I have been told by one of the scholars who is still living, that they had a fight nearly every day. The woods were full of Water sprouts and the teachoris principal rule was No licken no larnenf' So you sce figlig 4-'i I lickens played a prominent part in the education of our pion- eer boys and girls. Only four teachers taught in this building, THE FIRST SCHOOL HOUSE lN WAYNE TOWNSHIP naming them in their order, Patience Gilroy, Mary Atkinson, known as Mary Gorden, E. G. Atkinson, son of Mary Gordon, and Henry Whetstone. The iirst school taught in Waynesiield was by Mary Gordon, and was held in a log cabin that stood on the site of Wayne High School building. About this time the school directors secured lot No. 6, on East Wapakoneta street and erected a hewed log school house, with a gobd roof and glass Windows.

X X X this building until near the sixties and was presided over by such teachers as John Folks, Sealey Dawson, Veniah Hazel, Rob. Beaty and Colby Pepple. These teachers certainly must have worked for the honor of being called master, rather than for a lucrative purpose, for we find that according to the records kept by Nathan Woodbury, Township Clerk, that in 1840, the entire amount of school funds for Wayne township was S60.67, and the apportionment for No. 2 was only 38.32. Compare this with the expenses of the Waynesfield schools in 1915, being S7030.58, or a little over 845 times as much as that of 1840. Near the close of the fifties, a new frame school building was erected on the same lot in front of the old log, this building needs no description, for in 1873 or 4 it was removed to North West- minster street and is now occupied as a dwelling by Ves. Smith. In the new house, new methods of teaching began developing, it was in this building that some of our soldier boys spent their last school days. Old fashioned spelling schools were of frequent occurrence' No licken no larnen was still in fashion and How ard Atkinson insisted that f r u s t r a t e spelled first-rate Here it was that Dick Smith was everlastingly taking the twist out of his scholars The last school taught in the old frame was by Wm Pinkerton the term lasted until the holidays and the year 1874 was begun in the new two story brick building now occupied by E Beng Yale publisher of one of the leading newspapers of our surrounding country Mr Pinkerton was followed by Dr Christopher and Geo Getty who revolutionized the Waynesfield schools they conducted a literary society that surpassed anything of the kind ever held in our community Christopher was a pusher and an organizer and this combined with Getty s scholar ship created a desire for education and the better things of this life that has lasted to the present time It is not necessary to continue this history any farther owing to the fact that last year s Retrospect contains an article written by Mr Edgar Fasig in which all the important events needful to the completion of my story are given ?llC5l--..H 1 Q- Q 3l Zhi X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X ' X X f X X f 4 X X X X X X X X 2 X X X XX X X X X X X X X X X X X 35235 5., , V , Y ,K Y - Q A ?-1- , 'f - - f if! i - - '1 , as x X x x X X X x X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X x X X X X X X X X X WWf WwWfW WW ABIGAIL VAN HORN Abgl f h bluh g p S h d oy Abigl S o d h ptdh h CLAYTON WOODWARD V h thk Cl yt ll t H th L l p d th ul Cy l p h ybd dbt MABEL ROGERS What th t m g l h g t blty y blty t tth ddth t H ts uh u dth 6byb S Qi Celestial rosy red, love's proper hue!

ACT IV :-At last the longed-for Senior year rolled around. The class of '16 now lost one of its most loyal members, Miss Lois Fasig, who deserted us for Oak Harbor. But our number was re- inforced by Audree Brunson and Leona Morris. This year there have been literaries, bake sales and box suppers galore, and through it all they have had one grand and glorious hey-day. The Seniors have always had representatives in all the oratorical and debating contests, who have won glory and renown for their class. Thus far affairs have been running smoothly, but who can tell what the future may bring forth? However we are hoping for the best, hoping that May will bring each of us a sheepskin, conferring all the rights, privileges and prerogatives, pertaining to the same.

This event was long looked for by the Seniors as We all knew that the Juniors would do everything in the right Way. All the guests arrived by 8 o'clock. As We entered We were met by the honorable Juniors and conducted to the re- ception room. This room was decorated very beautifully with the blending of the Senior-Junior colors, Japanese lanterns, um- brellas and chimes. After We had talked for a long time We marched into an adjoining room, Where we saw a Japanese wed- ding. Bloom Focht, the orator of the class of '17 gave the sen- iors a very clever talk. When the Wedding was over we return- ed to the reception room, where We talked and listened to the charming music of the orchestra. Then the Junior President, Don Harrod, requested us to march- down stairs. We did not know just what was going to happen, but we soon realized that We were at a fair. When the fair was over we Went back to the reception room. While the orchestra played We marched to the banquet hall in the basement. Two long tables arranged with place cards and White roses greeted our sight. A three-course banquet was served, consisting of grape frappe, wafers, Saratoga chips, meat salad, brick ice cream, angel food cake, coffee and mints. The conversation became loud and strong after the lunch. The Junior President and toastmaster, Don Harrod, gavean ex- cellent- toast, then called upon the Freshman President, Beaman Musser, Sophomore Vice-President, Walter Copeland, and the Senior President, Leonard McAdams, all of Whom responded with appropriate Words. Mr. Stoker, Miss Beavers, Miss Bailey and Miss Hesse, all gave good advice and made the Sen- iors realize that their high school days would soon be over, never to return. The guests then returned to the reception rooms. All departed at a late hour to their several homes, thinking that the class of '17 were excellent entertainers, and that they had made the affair a complete success. as X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X Z' ' ' ' ',f ' WW ll - H 4 'G' N X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X 15 X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X T X V , AQX X17 I Ya ff M ,f , hx , Q JX , 1. 4 W V i M A, 4 f X, w.e'1 f X f ff v...-1 f 1.1!

X E JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY E X fu- X S By BROOKS HORN S X X E N THE COURSE of human events it becomes necessary for ig XS me to tell you the history of the class of '17, the most widely S S known class of Wayne High. This class is noted for its unity, S S ingenuity and peace which most classes do not possess, even the S S thought-to-begwonderful class of '16. S S At the beginning of the school year in 1913, nineteen chil- XS S dren, possibly small in stature, but large in knowledge, comprised S SX the Freshman class. At first the teachers were forced to open Q Q their eyes and look straight at the Freshmen. Even the other S S classes were filled with dismay. We naturally devoured L-atin. S S No Algbra problem was too hard, altho' many weary and restless S X nights were spent. We mastered English with ease. After many X E lectures from Prof. Bowsher and other numerous trials, our Fresh- S S man year ended happily with good prospects for future success is S as Sophomores. S S The following year we returned to school with 'od spirits S S and more determination. But alas! Our number had dwindled E X from nineteen to eleven. But such a number old Wayne High X X has never seen before.. This year of school seemed more attrac- ' X X Q tive and interesting than the one before. Geometry seemed to S S have been made for us, for even the most dreadful propositions S XX were crushed under our powerful blows and at the end of our X X Geometry battle we pronounced ourselves as victor of the mighty X X ost O propositions. n aesar. ay is name ever e pr1n ec X S h f ' ' A d C M h' e b ' t l X S on our memory! After helping him whip the Germans and Gauls Q E in numerous battles we.left him in peaceful solitude, never again S X to fight in the rude old Roman way. Thus ended our Sophomore X S year with each member ready to take the Junior burdens and S E walk boldly Onward. D ,A P S S We entered our Junior ye., .O und two new members, show- S X -f X S .sa E X X YA- g O L ing the popularity of the class. This year we took physics with the Seniors. We surprised the aged class and even shocked their egotism. The members make the quality of the class, and here are the members and some of their qualities: Dale Douglas is our English student, and reading is her hob- by. Laura Gray is our German student and also our fashion lead- er. Lucille Butcher's music rolls from the piano like thunder peals from the clouds in a wind storm. Lucille Means is our song bird, and is also somewhat attracted to Dan Cupid, the God of Love. Esther Dawson and Flora Bacome are the domestic science and house-keeper students. Chalmer Winegardner is our sage and noted mathematician. Bloom Focht is our debater, orator, physicist and our talking machine in general. Clinton Knotts is blessed with the bewitching powers of hypnotism. He already has a large shock of wool. Don Harrod is our star actor, espec- ially with the star actress of the Senior class. We hope he will follow this profession until the end of his life, or at least two more years. Now that we have carried our Junior honors through suc cessfully and vlctoriously we await the beginning of our Senlor struggle ww-rf X E E. S E X X S X S S X E X K S S X X X X X S. X e.

' 1 , ag ORNING BROKE in unclouded splendor. The golden rays of the September sun gave forth its lustrous' light and what seemed from out of the earth, thousands of boys and girls sprang and little clouds of dust whirled away from under their feet as they walked, laughing and singing, toward the little red school house on the hill. On the same morning, 'greeted by the same sun, but apart from the rest, walked seventeen of the brightest boys and girls that ever entered the doors of a high school.

X X ' ' X X X THE SHAKESPEARIAN LITERARY SOCIETY By MARY PEPPLE and LOIS MEANS E THE SHAKESPEARIAN Literary Society, have banded ourselves together to further our proficiency in literary work, including orations, debates, readings and music. But in addition to this rather serious trend, we have done much to promote good fellowship among our members and those of the other society. The society was organized in 1911 with sixteen members. It has increased in both quantity and quality, until now it has thirty of the most talented and loyal members, noted for their cleverness and popularity and always promoting the standards of the school, in honesty, fidelity and self-improvement. Of the two literary societies we do not excel in number but our small- ness ln body IS only a proof of our power Our work this year has been a decided success In our programs we have been Right there Each program has been both varied and 1nter esting The Shakespearians were well represented in all the contests and everyone carried out his part in such a way as to make his society proud of him Taken as a Whole the Shakespearian Literary Society IS one of whlch any school might well be proud And we hope and believe that some of the names due to the work done while a Shakespearian in Wayne High WIII in the near future head the list of the notables of our country a living monument to the honor of W H S and the glory of the Shakespearian Literary Society We as the Shakespearians who are leaving this now excellent and flourishing society wish as much success to all fu ture Shakespearians and may they always be loyal faithful and true to the grand old colors Black and Gold f --ee e 1 ee H -1 ill, 14 SMS. . r J X x X ik R N X X ix N :X R Q S ix :X , A SS X N S S fx R P if X S RX N V x 77 TY X CRESCENT LITERARY SOCIE f iff ff QW' - fa X-Q. ,xW X S R Q N S K N S x 5 R R S N S JS W Ig R R A R N ...

How the little Freshie's heart bounds with joy, his step becomes elastic, his smile broadens, his eyes twinkle, as he in his turn is chosen to - swell the ranks of the Crescents. Heated have been the contests between the Crescents and ' their sister society, The Shakespeariansf' but never have we had X 'xx cause to be ashamed of any single program given by the Cres- - cents, and many have been the flag fights between them. And 1 should we live to be Methuselahs we will never forget the thrills of pride that ran through our veins, as high on the pinnacle of Mother Wayne, the navy blue and red floated with nothing be- tween it and the blue dome of heaven. The Crcscents feel that their work has been successful far x x 2 R X X S X X X X X is s X X S S N S S Q X . X beyond what any of us thought possible. Best of all, we be- X lieve a school sentiment has been aroused which will, in the end, X make our social pleasure educative and of a permanent value to school and student. We look forward into the future with con- fidence. We believe that our classes will use the building more and more, as the years go on, for the scene of their fun as well as their work, and that perhaps in the dim, distant future the school will be able to do a wonderful office in bringing together some- times, for mutual, social enjoyment, our students and their suc- cessors and predecessors. Our post graduate members have all brought honor to the society and we hope the members of '16 will do likewise. And wherever fate anchors us and memory turns to our school days, our hearts will sigh this refrain: Oh! say does the navy blue and red still wave Over old Mother Wayne and the Cresccnts so b' , 5 3 ' til ll.. g- i i I gg 1 we ' A -WA: H Q- e-fff' Z! -ESQ S T fs f I X X X X E PRIZE POEM X -- X E THE STORY OF THE RIVER E X ---- X E won By GRANVILLE PEPPLE, Sophomore S Xi S ENTLY FLOWS the river, X X Between its mossy banks, SQ S Watering many a valley, X Or cooling the cattle's Hanks.

PRIZE STORY A GOOD RECORD Won By ROGER PATRICK, Sophomore F YOU WISH to receive an education come to Waynesfield. Waynesfleld has a school that is hard to beat. Its fame has grown so extensively that people from diferent parts of the country have heard of its successes. Not long ago, the following incident happened: Down in the southern part of Ohio, in Hamilton county, lived a family by the name of Johnson. In the family were two boys. The older boy's name was Carl, who was about fourteen years of age. The other boy's name was John, who was about seven years of age. Now Mr. Johnson was a wealthy farmer, and wished his sons to be educated in the best way possible. After Carl had completed his grades, he was eager to go to high school, but he did not want to go where the people were un- friendly. Mr. Johnson was wondering where to send Carl to school, for he knew he would not be satisfied if he sent him to a place where the people were not sociable. Carl was not like many boys He wanted to go some place where he could get a good education and his classmates would be sociable and com- mon Many a boy that was as wealthy as he was would have wanted to go where he could have a good time not carmg about an education The summer was nearly gone and Carl had not decided where to go to school He went away on a two weeks v1s1t and while gone he heard about the soc1ab1l1ty good schools and good common sense which Waynesfield possessed When he return ed home he urged his father to let him go to Waynesfield to school Mr Johnson thought about It He knew Waynesiield was a long way from home but he also knew he could trust Carl so he gave him permission to go there Carl was like his father He was common and liked to study He wanted to go through life in an honest way and fol- low the old saving which was often repeated to him Honesty is the best policy This he trled hard to practice Carl had a broad mind of his own and his father knew he would not be misled Time had come for him to start He bade his father mother and brother good-bye at the station The farther from home he X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X e X X X .

S S Huntsville had chosen the question- That President Wilson's S XX Military Plan Should be Adopted, and Wayncsfield got a walk- X SY away. Helen Gray lost by a few points in the piano solo, but S Q Lucille Butcher got a walk-away. In the reading Mabel Rogers S S was victor. It suited the people and was well given. Lastly was S is the decision of the judges. Wayne received sixty-five to Hunts- S S ville's thirty-five points. S S Our orchestra held the Huntsvillians spell-bound at Hunts- S S ville.

ANDREWS HE RELATION of Alumn1 to their school IS a relation that IS so different ln many places that a definition of It IS dif- ficult to g1V6 Some of the most commonly used meamngs and the ones that frequent usage have determined to be the test- ed reasons are those that have been selected here In the first place Alumni of any school owe a debt to their school that they must pay or be found Wanting The graduates have received certam benefits for Whlch of course they have worked but for the OppOY'tLl111ty of which they owe a debt to some one 1n the past The pupils starting to go to a school generally find the school more or less organized and establ1shed Some one has spent some time with that school work1ng to get it start- ed nd to keep it runn1ng after It 1S started The people that at- tend and that make d1l1gent use of thelr opportunltles are better fitted to cope with the World s battles when they launch out on the Journey of life When alumni are pursuing their regular vocations it will of- ten occur that they will be able to help their school to raise its standard or to assist in maintaining it. Often there are great and various activities that a school Wishes to have that can be se- cured and carried out that can be greatly helped by the assistance and co-operation of the graduates either direct personal help or by good Will. Graduates are often able by the simple utterance of a few words to cause 1'L1blIC sentiment to be behind a school and its activities and this same public sentiment will, when crys- tallized into action, assure the success of any undertaking. While graduates may feel that the persons who have their Alma Mater in charge are changing the old landmarks and dese- crating some of the old sacred places and customs as Well as changing many of the old ideals, yet they should try to realize that the people in charge of any responsible undertaking are in closer touch with its needs than any one else. They then should rally to the support of the innovations as well as their conscience will permit. All true alumni should recognize these conditions and place E ' 1 65 as X s s S x s s s X X S bs s x S X X X x s X s X N x N N E will fl? j, Q . 5 E at the disposal of those directing the fortunes of the school, their best advice, as much of real service as they may be able to give without sacrifice, and that which is easier to give and which is generally more valuable, their good will. Lastly, every graduate should endeavor to visit his or her Alma Mater every year during the commencement season and to attend the annual alumni meetings when the yearly graduates are received into the ranks of the alumni. At these banquets, alumni can welcome in the new classes and keep in touch with the development of the school from which they graduated so long ago, but also they can renew those ties of friendship and frater- nal feeling Which once bound them close, in common cause, with common purpose. YOURSELF By EDGAR W. FASIG There comes a time during the swift passage of life from the cradle to the grave when Yourself becomes an object of investigation. You, as the judge, place Yourself upon the Witness stand in the Court of Reason, and the examination begins. 'Yourself,' you will please answer the following questions. What do you possess that is precious? Life. What is Life? Life is the stream of God's breath which, like a current of electricity, has been flowing through generation to generation, since the time when the earth ,was without form and darkness was upon the face of the deep. Besides Life, what do you possess? I possess a mind, which is composed of parts, the most important of which are the Material Me and the Spiritual Me. The Spiritual Me, like an electric cable, is a connecting link between my Creator and myself and is my soul. The Material Me is a heritage of instincts, passions, emotions, habits and thoughts of all the past gen- erations, together with the acquired habits, etc., of the present. Do all human beings possess these? They do. What effect has civilization had upon the Material Me? Civilization is like a thin layer of semi-hardened lava covering a boiling, fum- ing volcano of human passions and emotions of the past. The slightest puncture of this layer of semi-hardened material reveals the nature beneath. Each and every hu- man being possesses those things which made Arnold a traitor, Anthony a slave of Cleopatrag lynchers for Frank Leog and crusifiers for Christ. 66 T Sigel- Tee-fir, Q . ig ,f g X Xxx?

The church, by the aid of the schools and universities, are, in time, going to make that thin ve- neering so thick and strong that the heritage of the past will be a prisoner, forever. Each generation passes something, besides life, on to the future. X x s . S The examination is finished, the witness dismissed, and the decision rendered. In the high school life apprenticeship is served. After high school we commence S our life work, either as aids of' civilization or destroyers of it. As aids, we take the X X initiative with the purpose of passing to our children along with the current of life, X X S X X x w X clean minds and healthy bodies. As destroyers we follow our natural instincts and passions. Y A N. High schools contribute their share to the purposeless throng. May each mem- X 5 ' x N X g- ber of the class of 1916 live a clean life, so your soul will have a chance to develope ,I . E and when trembling and alone it shall stand before the Great White Throne, you N Q will hear the welcome words 'Well Done! EDGAR W. FASIG. S .L,i... Ni is l X i To the Waynesfield Retrospect: When asked to write a few lines for the Retrospect my mind naturally turned backward several years and I found myself back in W. H. S. Not in the fine new :Q building in which learning is expounded at the present time, but in the single room N in what is now the Chronicle office. At that time the school was only a third grade, N i X with no foreign languages, no laboratories or any of the necessities that are now found Q S in ordinary high schools. But there was one thing there that has helped to bring you Q to the point in advancement which you have now reached. It may have been dor- X X E. mant at that time but it was not dead. That one thing was Ambition. gg In these eight or nine years Ambition has taken you from a low third grade to a , x-So' x S good first class school in the accredited list of colleges. Now isnt that something QS' N. X' that a village even larger than Waynesfield might well be proud of? X It is my fondest wish that all the youth that have access to the field of oppor- S tunities offered by W. H. S. may so improve their time, that they while there, may 5 tend to make it better and after leaving cast ennobling reflections on the dear old :S school.

The director, Miss Glenna Hesse, of Columbus, Ohio, is a graduate of the Columbus Normal school, also of the College of Education at Ohio State University. She was assisted by the county super- intendent, Mr. Ed. J. Rodeheffer. The average enrollment was twelve, six of whom received certificates without taking the teach- er's examination, having completed a four year high school course. Four of the number were taking both high school and normal work. In the first semester, the students spent their afternoon in ob- servation, and in the second semester in industrial arts, consist- ing of sewing, basket work, raffia weaving and clay modeling, and in practice teaching. This was done in Wayne and Goshen townships and the privilege was greatly valued by the director and the normal students. While in practice teaching some of the girls introduced the hot lunch. The county normal appreciated the interest shown by the board of education, by refurnishing the room. The sand table was an object of interest to all the students of the Waynesfield schools, as it represented the occupations and scenes of the dif- ferent seasons of the year. ' The students of 1916 hope that, as the years go by, the Nor- mal will increase and flourish and that the county will be great- ly benefitted by its establishment. s 71 -of 7 r g g Ag A ' 'lg f.

In the fall of '15 we were Q X very much elated about our new gymnasium that we felt so sure X S we would obtain before the opening of. the basket ball season. S E But our highest hopes did not reach the intended goal and about X X all we have of our new gymnasium IS the blue .print and a few X S faint tinges of our blasted hopes But during these trials the XX S boys managed to schedule and play three base ball games in the E S fall of our school term. h R dh d H h h I S X Our first game was wit oun ea ig sc oo team, on X S their diamond.

As Freshmen We dreamed of it as Sophomores we talk ed of it, as Juniors we planned lt as Seniors We do it And here it is. . To bring to the alumnus some remembrance of his high school days, to entertain some 1dle hour of the student and lastly to gratify no little seliish class ambition this has been our end How well We have attained it the leader Cand ourselvesj may judge. We wish to thank all who have contributed to making this book a success. Those outside of the school who have written articles and who have given helpful suggestions. Our advertisers represent the progressive business men in the vicinity today and We feel justified in asking our readers to patronize the advertisers in the present edition, and those only, When possible. There are faults in this little book. We trust there are also merits. If the student finds more faults than merits he can close the book and put it upon the shelf. But all We ask is a fair ex- amination What IS W1 itten is Written. HELEN GEDDES MABEL ROGERS Editors X X X X X X X X E. W 6 . 3 e - X . 2 . - X , R Q X . . .
