Calendar .v 77 -AQITHE TALISMANnew .401 O01 RETROSPECT The goal is reached-the race is won! The sands of ti1ne are all run out! Yesterday we looked forwardfto-day we look backward! Four years! Looking forward, it seemed an age, but how quickly it passed! Though crowded to the limit with work and pleasure, it seems to-day like a pleasure, it seems to-day like a pleasant dream, the awakening from which we rather dread. VVe feel to-day we would as lief go on dreaming for we fear the jumping oi? place-the parting of the ways. How we enjoyed the companionship, the jolly fellowship, the happy hours spent in study and play, the sweet association with the teachers: the going in and out of rooms that have grown dearer to us with every year. Three of our instructors have been with us throughout the time, and as we face the parting, our hearts weaken and we would fain stay o11t at York. But we know they would not have it so for they have always led us onward. and upward to greater things. We regret our short acquaintance with our new instructor for we realize that his ideals are high and clean. Four years ago York school was but a dream, but for three years now it has been a reality and we have derived pleasure and benefit from the reali- zation of that dream. We believe the coming years will see great things don at York and we hope the classes of the future will fully appreciate this insti-' tution that has been founded here. NVQ: have tried to cooperate with our instructors in every way to make our school a success in all its undertakings. We realize to-day as never before the difficulties they have to contend with. To achieve success we must have cooperation in the sport, social and intellect- ual life of a school. Students and teachers must ,join hands and pull together. What the future holds for the class of '25 we know not, but we do know that if we clinghto the ideals held up to us during these three years at York we need not fear. VVith one hand we cling to the past, dear to us in a hundred ways, with the other we reach out to the future with eager and keen anticipation.-H,J, CLASS PROPHECY '25 As I was in the waiting room at New York, waiting to board the ship bound for Europe, I noticed a young woman sitting across the room from me. l recognized her as one of my class-mates of '25, Fauna YValtz, who was going across to Africa on her second missionary tour. Fauna had been back in York township visiting her parents before she started to Africa. She said that she had had quite a visit with Florence Price when she was back home and she was teaching the primary grades at the Marsh Foundation at Van Wert. Florence had told her that Nolon Fousnought had become a very successful lawyer in Fort Wayne and Margaret Davies was his competent stenographer. As Fauna was still a good friend of Edith Sill she was corresponding e4onTHE TALISMANn6N 100 IGN with her in California, where she was taking care of infants in an orphans, home. As Fauna and I had quite a long wait we 'thought we would go to a lunch room and have a lunch and then we would attend a vaudeville afterward. As we entered the lunch room we noticed a young lady at the farthest end of the room singing. Fauna said, lVhy, that is Harriet Jones singing back there, and, sure enough: it was. We went right back to talk to her. She was just as small as ever and had just as good a voice. llarriet had heard from Ilo Faurot, who was in California teaching Mathematics in one of the largest universities. After lunch Fauna and I went to one of the largest vaudevilles in New York. When the players came out we noticed one of them to be Eleanor Uhl. another of our class-mates of '25, After the vaudeville we went up to talk with Eleanor and how surprised she was to see us. She said that since she had been on the stage she had received four divorces and was now looking strongly for her fifth marriage license to appear. As we had a few more hours to wait yet we went to one of the athletic universities of New York. VVe met the professor of the university and he noticed our rings and then he said that two of the pupils from York had graduated from this university. VVhen we questioned him and asked him who they were and where they were now, he surprised us by saying that they were Harold Gamble and Elizabeth Thomas. 4'Elizabeth is the girls' coach at Oberlin College, Ohio, and Harold is the boys' coach at the same college. By this time our ship was ready to take us abroad. As we got on the deck we recognized the sea captain as Kenneth Morris, and with him along, we didnit have much time to get sea sick. Kenneth had heard 'from Walter Phelps. He was still in York Township on a farm and was known as one of the best farmers in Ohio. The first place that we went when we landed was to Paris, France, and then We Went over to view the scenery of Germany. Here is where Fauna had to leave me and go to where her duty called her. While I was in Germany I thought I would go and visit the Strassburg University, a large science university that I had heard so much about. As 1 was walking through one of its halls I saw a young man coming toward me. I thought the face looked familiar. VVhen he passed me I recognized him as Clifton Hosier. He said he was teaching Science in this university. He cor- responds with Lester Morris. Lester was traveling with the Jonestown Circus, which has sprung up in the last few years. Clifton said that it was better known than the Barnum and Bailey Circus. , A From Germany I went over to Denmark and at the edge of Copenhagen was a large cream station owned and managed by Russel Brunni. Now that I had seen or heard of all of my class-mates of '25 I toured over the rest of Europe and enjoyed my visit better. -A.D. e.dal1THE TALISMANnC-Av ear IQ' YORK FACULTY We, the class of '25, cannot hope to he hack to York t'entralized School in l92ti, although we do hope to see all the instructors of this year hack again. As the school year is nearing an end, eaeh pupil regrets the thought of the time when he inust part with his teacher. Miss Morris has now finished her third year of teaching in the first grade room. The first graders would like always to stay in her room, hut they must trav'el along with time and leave her. Miss Kline was the instructor ot' the second grade, and this was her first year of teaching. She fills the vacancy left hy Miss Ries, who taught the first two years. e Miss Jones and Miss Strother. instructors of the third, fourth, and fifth grades, are two more teachers with whom the children do not like to part. Miss Jones has taught for three years, and Miss Strother has now finished her second year of teaching, taking Miss .lackson's place. Mr. Rhoades and Mr. Jones taught the sixth, seventh. and eighth grades. Mr. Rhoades was with us the first year, then last year Miss Brubaker, from Ohio City, took his place and again this year he entered into his schoolroom. Mr. Jones is the last to prepare the pupils for lligh School, and it has been his duty for three successive years. Mr. Reese, our Superintendent, teaehes Mathematics. Mr. Hansen, principal, has charge of the Science departnient. and Athletics. Mrs. Ludlow teaches llome Economics and English. Mr. Adam, taking Miss Steinbergcr's place, has charge of llistory and Latin. QKDITHE TALISMANIIC-mv Q61 IGN Since the birth of York Ventralized three of our lligh School instructors have been with us. Mr. Adam took up his work this year in York for the first. York has been greatly benefited by these instructors and we sincerely hope that we will have them back next year: they who were always so willing and ready to take up their work. -F.W.

Lecture Course We were entertained very nicely this year by a four-number lecture course. The first that came to brighten our evening was the Freeman-lIam- mond Company, who conducted a rather dramatical programme accompanied by music, both vocal and instrumental. The second, the Bostonian Quartette, gave some beautiful renditions of familiar songs, and all were capable of taking part ,in the vocal selections. Unfortunately one of the company became ill during the evening and was unable to carry out his individual part. The third, being a lecture, we did not think it would be of much value. We were mistaken when Mr.'G. M. Bingham came to talk to us the previous afternoon, our interest was aroused and everyone had a keen desire to hear what he had to say to us in the evening. V The fourth, and last, was the Galganos, a man and wife who entertained us mostly with harp music. The lady dramatized two plays. The Lyceum Lecture Course was very successful in regard to financial affairs this year and we hope it will continue so through the coming years. -M.
