JUNIOR CLASS 19 2 0 JUNIOR C L A When one stops to consider that since September, 1916, a bevy of boys and girls fresh from grammar grades have attained that honorable and distinguished state of Juniorhood and are look¬ ing eagerly forward to Seniorhood, small wonder then that such a time-worn expression as “Time Flies’ is inadequate. As Freshmen we might record many happy events. Although at first awed by every new wonder of our High School, we wended serenely our way from our six session rooms, 22, 23, 24, 25. 38, 39, under atson. Marsh, Whitlock, Petty, Bash, Harlan, ever intent upon our lesson. Honored by the fact that we were represented on the Board of Control and Comus, we tried to assume new dig¬ nity. Our Freshman year was first marked by a minstrel in charge of Professor Brown. Football and basketball season passed. On each team, although perhaps unrecognized, the loyal Freshmen per¬ formed their duties well, assured of places in their coming Sopho¬ more year. hen Z. H. S. in 1917 won the two debating pen¬ nants, none cheered more lustily than the loyal Freshmen. The Senior reception in May brought out the latent talents in some of the “Freshies.” After a summer of vacation a somewhat smaller group re¬ turned to Z. H. S., as Sophomores. The session rooms, 33, 35, 7, 40, under Petty, Vogt. Byers and Merkle proved interesting. Co¬ mus reporters, literary officers and Board of Control representa¬ tives were elected. Freshmen reception by the three upper class- men proved a huge success. Again in November, came a minstrel better than ever under capable direction of Mr. Brown. This year the Sophomores turned out in large numbers for football and starred in every conceivable direction. Days passed quickly and again came the great event of the SS HISTORY year, Debate. The fact that we won but one of the pennants in 1918 did not lessen one atom the spirit of 1920, who realized that as far as real debating was concerned Z. H. S. held the medal. Due to the war our geometry teacher was called to the colors and it was with a rousing farewell we bade adieu to Mr. Diehl. With a feeling of sadness the 1920 class realized that it had lost one of the highest and most promising students, “Phil Jones, who drowned during the summer. The three session rooms which greeted us as Juniors on our return to Z. H. S. were 27, 28 and 29, under Envine, Polk and Mr. Young. Comus reporters, literary officers were elected and with increased ardor we resumed our studies for we realized that over half the goal had been attained. Due to the “flu ban there was but slight attempt at athletics of any sort and other unfortunate circumstances prevented social activities. However, owing to action taken by teachers and pupils we were once again on a firm footing, basketball season opened. Juniors were given laurels many times. Then for the first time in the history of Z. H. S. a comic opera, “In India,” was staged by Mr. Hetzler and Professor Brown, as¬ sisted by Miss Sue Reed. In this Juniors came to the front. Again was a new idea introduced, that of a Junior Class Play. Under the able direction of Miss Alma Polk, the Junior Class Play, It Pays to Advertise,” was presented on the 6th of June. As a farewell to the Seniors and a fitting close to the Junior year, a re¬ ception has been planned for the icth of June. And as we achieve the dignity of a Senior not a one is there but who rejoices in the fact that he is a member of the illustrious class of 1920. Alice Smith. opbontorts SOPHOMORE CLASS 19 21 SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY On Sept. 5, 1917, our unexperienced but exceptionally ambi¬ tious group of students entered the stately balls of Zanesville High School. This event had been anticipated with great enthusiasm by all as we were now classed as a part of that wonderful home of wisdom—Z. H. S. On this first morning we were assembled in the auditorium from which we were assigned to our future session rooms, where we were given our schedules and list of necessary equipment. Immediately following- for the next few davs came what seemed to us the impossible, the task of remembering the numerous “musts” and “must nots,” also where and when we were due in our respec¬ tive recitation rooms. But with all due respect to ' our upper class- men, with their aid and encouragement even we, in an astonishing short time, overcame our various difficulties. The first social function was a reception given by the upper classmen in our honor which was indeed appreciated. We had every reason to be justly proud of the large representation from our class in all school activities during the year, as in football, base¬ ball and in the minstrel directed by Prof. Brown. Thus time passed swiftly on and our Freshmen days soon drew to a close. Gaining new vigor and enthusiasm during the summer the members of the class of 1921 with few exceptions found their way back in the fall of 1918, to again strive to attain still another round of the much desired ladder—education. But upon our second entrance to Z. H. S. we felt very much at home and truly capable of bearing the well deserved distinction of Sophomores. All of the Sophomore session teachers were back and ready to welcome us with their winning smiles, with the ex¬ ception of Mr. Merkle who had had charge of room 40. He had gone to the call of the colors. Miss Schaeffer had taken his place, little realizing to what extent her well developed patience was to be tried by our somewhat young and immature minds. At first we found Geometry distressing, Caesar unbearable, Eng lish a torture (especially to the boys) and History a trial. But soon we had them mastered as is shown by our average compared with the other classes. Our class has the honor of having the great¬ est number of all “A” pupils in the school. During the early part of the year, school ‘‘spirit” was unavoid¬ ably crushed, because of the world-wide influenza epidemic caus¬ ing the entire student-body to deprive itself of athletics to a large degree. Football season passed with only one game, Zanesville meeting with defeat. Our class being ambitious had an enthusias¬ tic team but played only one game owing to the close of the season, school being closed for the period of a month. With the on coming of spring new life found its way through the crevices and our former enthusiasm had most graciously returned since our atten¬ tion is now centered upon the activities in the baseball field. Here, too, the Sophomores are ably represented, always ready to do their bit. On April 21, under the direction of Miss Sue Reed and Messrs. Hetzler and Brown, a very successful operetta was given in which ’21 again displayed great ability. As we bid farewell to our second year we realize the immense undertakings and problems the future is bound to hold for our generation. Thus we are spurred to put forth our best efforts and shall make the most of our third year in preparation to meet life’s opportunities. In closing we propose Here’s to the Sophs of ’21 Wondrous in knowledge, Willing in service, Respected by all. Helen Holloway. jfrestimcn FRESHMEN CLASS 19 2 2 FRESHMEN CLASS HISTORY On. Sept. 3, 1918, school opened. A class of 267 assembled in the auditorium where we were assigned to our session rooms. The Commercial students went to 23, 25 and 38, the Latin stu¬ dents to 22, 24 and 39. Our session room teachers gave us a list of books to get. School was then dismissed for the day. Being Freshmen we had many jokes played on us. In the operetta which was given April 25 and 26 there were 21 Freshmen. The year is drawing to a close. June 13, 1919, will mark the end when we will be classed as Sophomores. Ffere’s to the class of 1922, the best of ’em all.

The idea met with approval and about seventy-five pupils signed up for membership. The pupils met on the following Wednesday afternoon in Room i and committees were appointed for choosing a name for the society and drawing up the constitution and by-laws. The so¬ ciety met later and the constitution was read and amended. On Monday, April 14th, the society again held a meeting and of the names presented bv the committee the one selected was “The Phi- emic Society” derived from the words physics and chemistry. The officers were elected and a program committee appointed at that time and plans for the first program made. Many interesting sub¬ jects in both chemistry and physics have been selected for programs and although it is rather late in the year when all are busy, the suc¬ cess of the society depends upon the attendance. The society will continue next year under the supervision of Mr. Brown and Mr. Prose and a great success is expected. James Offenbacher, ' 20 . ZANESVILLE HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA Harris.

Once organized, we 1 e P- !e ball rolling and it is needless to say it gathered no “moss.” Friday evening, January 17, 1919, marked the beginning of a successful Hi-Y year. Under the able leadership of Mr. Snedeker and Hi-Y speaker, Dr. Hugh Wayt, supported by the hearty co¬ operatives and enthusiasts of our dear old High School wc initiated and successful’}- “put through” one of the most prosperous Hi-Y seas ' ns since the birth of the club in 1916. The first three years’ history of the club is excellent but, in spite of our late start this year, our 1919 dub established a high standard which, in following years, is going to be hard to surpass. At our second meeting the election of officers took place. Those chosen were: President, George Fitz. Vice President, Frank Brush. 1 reasurer, Douglas Duncan. Secretary, George Pirsch. Afore pep, enthusiasm and interest seemed to dominate this year. The fellows seemed anxious to show what they could do and proved their capability at the Fathers’ and sons’ banquet, held Tues¬ day evening, February ir, in the Grace Church basement. This one fact alone symbolizes the “acid test” to our “pep-and-go” spirit when we inform you that fully three hundred fathers and sons were in attendance. Aside from various stunts, entertainments and speakers, under the direction of the social committee, the club attempted nothing more until our final meeting of the year when the members inaugu¬ rated a “Ladies’ Night,” April 25. This marked the close of the 1919 season of the club and just a word to you fellows who weren’t there, we sure did make good! Plenty to eat—and pink lemonade! Oh, boy! You missed the social time afterward! The Hi-Y W. girls did their share in enlivening the evening, and we invite you to come again, girls! A word of thanks and a warm appreciation to Mr. Snedeker, who has been a tireless booster of the club since its start in Zanes¬ ville. to C. D. Clossman, Rev. Wayt, to the faithful members and 10 those in whom any responsibility towards the success of this year’s club has been due. In fact, to any individual who strove to attain that goal which we so ardently worked for, we extend a sincere wish and cordial invitation to attend our meetings this com¬ ing year of 1919-1920. Things look promising for next year, fellows, and we depend on you alone for another banner vear. CAN WE DO TT T ET’Q PROVE IT NEXT YEAR! ' G.

We refer in general to all who assisted in any manner, and in particular to Katherine Galigher for valuable art work, Frank Brush for his services as typist, and to Mr. Swingle for his ever-willing and unfailing co-operation in all matters. In regard to the Comus for next year, the ability and real talent shown by the Junior members of the staff make success certain if they are given the right backing and support by the students. That is the essential thing, and the Comus will progress only as YOU help it by subscribing and contributing notes, stories, etc. So next year get behind the staff and help them to put out the best Comus ever published!

The stu¬ dents of Z. H. S. and all their friends who filled the auditorium to its capacity, on two big nights, are unanimous in declaring that it was great.” “Never was there a play to equal it, in all the annals of Z, H. S.,” say the jubilant Seniors, and all others who witnessed it are inclined to agree with them. The play itself was well chosen, being a college play, with its setting in Columbia University. An exciting football game, plenty of “love in¬ terest,” lots of humor and some intensely dramatic moments furnish in¬ terest from start to finish. The cast, too, was admirably selected—indi¬ vidually and collectively, and all did splendidly, from the handsome hero, the beautiful heroine, down to the small army of “extras.” Ferris Saad, who played the title-role, was the perfect Indian and the perfect lover Margaret Mason, to whom was intrusted the difficult part of Dorothy Nelson, has our gratitude for her consistent performance, during which she gave us many delightful heart-throbs. George Fitz, as “Billy,” should be commended for his excellent comedy work as the light juvenile, which he portrayed so admirably. Helen McSword as “Molly,” was charming, and her scenes with “Billy” were convulsingly funny. Ralph Weber ambled through the play as “Reade,” the “greasy grind,” and, at times,, threatened to “run away” with the show. He was inimitable. No play is complete without a villain, and Kenneth Winn and Harold Feichter furnished enough villainy to keep the play going to the end. Lawrence Morrison was the boyish lover to perfection, and played in a manner to win the sympathy of the audience. The “varsity” men and the charming guests at the dancing party rounded out a cast it would be difficult to duplicate. “As good as professionals” was the expression heard many times, after the performance. The Seniors realized something over $500, which will be applied to the purchase of a Class Memorial. Altogether the play was a distinct triumph for the class, and much praise is due to the coach, Mr. Olney, to Miss Coombs, who so successfully managed the seat-sale, to the cast and to the entire class for the unqualified success of the undertaking.

A detective named Fulton, who was the best friend of young McClintock’s father, had become more or less of a guardian to the young heir. At one time Mr. McClintock had attended Zanesville High School and during his Senior year received a metal “Z”. Soon after graduation he moved to New York and had placed the “Z” on the parlor mantle in his home there. When he died he left his son, Bill, nothing but the house and the “Z,” with a note saying “You have always wanted to know the story of the metal ‘Z’ and now you may find out.” The Z” was shaped in such a way as to show itself to be meant for a key. One day Bill found that the “Z” was missing and a note came to him saying, “I have received the ‘Z’ and am coming back every night until I find the proper place for the key to fit.” The note also advised him to call none to his assistance but of course Bill took his Dad’s old friend. Detective Fulton, into immediate confidence. Fulton told Bill not to get excited—yet—that plenty of things would probably happen later on—that at present, things were very calm. Just as the word “calm” was uttered a brick crashed through the window and tied to it was a note which read: “I warned you not to notify anyone concerning our little ‘business matter.’ What is Fulton doing in your house? See that he leaves immediately.” At this, Mr. Fulton decided to leave but he gave Bill orders to remain in his room until morning no matter what he heard or saw. Bill and his housekeeper, Mrs. Parkes, both heard “X-12” (the mysterious writer of the two notes) at work, pounding on the kitchen wall, but being forbidden by the detective to interfere with the work of the stranger, they did nothing towards attempting to “land him.” Towards morning a tele¬ gram came saying, “Will arrive on noon train from Pittsburgh. Be at station to meet me. ‘Uncle Ed.’ ” Uncle Ed. had never seen his nephew before—he had lived in the West for 25 years and loved it so that he left it only when necessary—this time he had had to come East on business. The day that Bill’s .uncle arrived, Mr. Fulton was c alled to Boston for several days on business. That night the same noises were heard, and about three o’clock a pistol shot rang out through the stillness but a thor¬ ough search by Bill and his uncle revealed them nothing. Next night Uncle Ed. and Bill went to their rooms at eight o’clock to try to get some sleep—at least Uncle Ed did—but Bill had a wild idea in his head and wished to carry it out. He had promised Mr. Fulton not to disturb “X-12” but he saw no harm in watching him so long as he did not interrupt. He dressed in dark clothes, sneaked down into the library and coiled up in a big leather rocker in the corner. At last, about one o’clock, as he was looking at the window facing the lawn, his muscles stiffened, his heart seemed to stop and his eyes seemed to bulge out of his head as he watched the window slowly rise and a dark form enter. PART FOUR Bill sat as if he was a stone image as the figure walked softly across the room to the fire-place and placed a chisel and hammer on a chair and began to remove the bric-a-brac and pictures from the mantle. Then he began chipping away. For two hours Bill sat and watched the nightly visitor work and all the time ideas were running wild in his brain. What if “X-12” should see him sitting there? What if another shot should he fired that night, from what direction would it come? He was beginning to wish himself safely locked up in his room when “X-12” suddenly ceased work, picked up his tools but instead of going out the window he went to the front hall and up the stairs. Bill arose from his cramped position and hid behind the big curtains at the hall door. Scarcely a minute had elapsed when a shot sounded in the hall above. Bill stood behind the curtain trying to decide which would be the best thing to do when Uncle Ed. hollered at the top of his voice: “Bill!” There seemed only one thing to do and Bill ran up the stairs where his uncle was standing. “Where have you been and why have you those clothes on ?” “Now calm yourself, Uncle Ed., and I will explain later. At present I am anxious to know the why and wherefore of that shot.” “It was in your room, Bill, and I was sure that you were killed.” Bill opened the door to his room and switched on the light. Everything was in perfect order, but Bill shivered as he looked at his bed, in the center was a dark brown spot. “Lucky I wasn’t sleeping there tonight, isn’t it? ‘X -12’ will certainly be disappointed when he finds out that the bed was empty and his shot wasted, said Bill as he went closer to examine the bullet hole. “By the way, where is Mrs. Parks Bill went to her room and knocked. ‘Who’s there?” nervously asked Mrs. Parks. Its Bill, Mrs. Parks. Are you scared? I thought maybe ‘X-12 had stolen you as you did not appear after the shooting.” “k thought sure you were dead after I heard that shot.” said Mrs. Parks as she came into the hall. “I don’t think I can stand much more of this and I wish Mr. Fulton would capture that crim¬ inal or he would get what he is looking for.” “I think we are all getting pretty tired of this thing, Mrs. Parks, and I am going to ask Mr. Fulton if he will not let me call the assistance of the police force. I am sure it will bring the mat¬ ter to a quicker ending.” At eight o’clock that morning Mr. Fulton rang the front door¬ bell. ‘‘Gee, I am glad to see you, Mr. Fulton. Come in the dining room and have some breakfast, then I will tell you all that has hap¬ pened since you left.” “Not so fast, Bill. I have had my breakfast and have no time to hear your yarn about the missing ' ‘Z.’ I came up merely to say goodbye as 1 am leaving on the 10 :20 limited for Los Angeles on g ' overnment business. Your peculiar friend, ‘X-12,’ will have to take care of himself for a few weeks until I return.” With these words Mr. Fulton left Bill standing in the doorway and hurried into the waiting taxi. “Talk about luck. If that isn’t the worst I ever had. Just when I was beginning to think it was about all over, Mr. Fulton flys to California.” This was the way that Bill greeted his uncle as he came down to breakfast. “Are you sure he is going, Bill ?” ‘‘Sure? Why wasn’t I just talking to him at the door? I wish he was a poor detective so that he would not have so much business. What are we going to do?” “Well, Bill,” said Uncle Ed., “I think the best thing we can do is to wait until Mr. Fulton returns. Fie does not want us to hire anybody and if we did it would make him mad.” “Well, I guess you are right, uncle, but I wish Mr. Fulton was not going West.” They spent the day in Bill’s car and did not return until dusk. Shortly after dinner Bill went to his room with a sick headache, locked his windows and door, layed down on the bed and was soon fast asleep. It seemed to him he had been asleep for hours when he was awakened by a loud pounding on his door. Mrs. Parks stood there with a revolver in her hand. “What does this mean, Mrs. Parks? What time is it? How long have I been asleep? Bill could hardly wait for the housekeeper to answer his questions. Mrs. Parks seemed perfectly cool and composed. “Please put on your slippers and come with me, Bill Be pre¬ pared for a shock. X-12 is down in the library with a detective.” In a balf-dazed condition, Bill followed Mrs. Parks down the stairs to the library. As they reached the library, Mrs. Parks stepped to one side and motioned for Bill to go in. The scene that presented itself to Bill was not what he ex¬ pected. No disorder, no confusion, no excitement By the table stood Mr. Fulton and in the chair by the fireside sat Uncle Ed. As Bill entered, Mr. Fulton smiled and told him to be seated. “Now, Bill, you are going to hear a long story but I will try to be as brief as possible. When I returned East last month I was on the track of a slick character who had been dodging the author¬ ities for the past six months. As soon as I came home ou called my attention to your missing ‘Z’ and I became interested at once. Not that I wanted to start on another case and drop the one I was working on, but that I was sure that I was going to catch this crim¬ inal in the house of my old school pal. I felt positive that your lit¬ tle case was a continuation of the affair I began on out West. Tbe man I was after out there was a German, spy and after giving your case careful consideration I came to the conclusion that it was the same person who was doing the work. If your father’s ‘Z’ had not been stolen I don’t suppose I would have ever connected the two affairs but I knew that the ‘Z’ was the key to your father’s secret vault and I also knew what was in that vault. Your father was an expert mechanic and shortly before he died I watched him perfect an intricate part of a new model aeroplane. I was present when a government official pronounced the invention a great help to this country and said for your father to bring his plans to Washington. He tore down his model and put the plans in his secret vault. Two days after that he became suddenly ill of pneumonia and died the following week. I left for the West the day your father died. He told me the year before he died that I was not to tell you where to find the secret vault but to keep my eyes open to see that no one else found it before you did. I told him I would do what he asked and I think I have. Since you received that note through the win¬ dow I have been in the house every night watching X-12 work. Last night when you were seated in the chair watching him I was right behind your chair. I did not want to capture him until I made sure of his identity and today I received the whole history. Then I did not want to waste any time so tonight I have cleared up your ‘Z’ mystery and also several other government cases along the Pacific Coast. Your good friend, ‘X-12,’ is sitting there in the chair.” “You surely don’t mean Uncle Ed.?” fairly gasped Bill. ‘‘No, Bill, I don’t mean your ‘Uncle Ed.’ That man is no more your uncle than I am. That man is one of the cleverest of the thousands of spies that the German government have scattered throughout our land. That man is Alfons Koenig, alias X-12, and at the present time doing work under the convenient name of Ed¬ ward McClintock. The gardener your father had last summer has been apprehended and confessed to having given this man all the particulars he needed to portray the role of ‘Uncle Ed.’ It was your desire that I engage an assistant. This I did. Ever since the arrival of your supposed uncle. Mrs. Parks has been of valuable assistance to me. Last night she watched X-12 open your door and Ere at the bed and then hurry into his room. She was not worried about you as you supposed, because she followed you down stairs and was just going to her room when the affair happened. The draperies at the front of the hall upstairs saved her from being seen. You are also anxious to know who has fired the shots you heard in the house on various occasions. I did. Not to kill but to let X-12 know that he was not as slick as he thought. I was hiding in the attic while he was working there and shortly after he left 1 fired the shot merely to let him know he was not the only one pres¬ ent. There is the missing ‘Z’ on the table. ou will find ‘the proper place’ to use it in the back of the first shelf in the book-case. The expression on the face of X-12 was anything but pleasing as he watched Bill remove the books, fit the key into the little open¬ ing and slowly pull out the entire front of the book-case which was in reality the door of the vault. The thousands of dollars that his father was supposed to have at the time of his death but could not be found were there in the form of government bonds and in a little drawer were the plans which had caused so much disturbance in this quiet household. “Well, I might as well call the police and have ‘uncle’ locked in a secure place until his trial comes off. But I hardly think there will be much of a trial as our government does not wish to waste court proceedings on men of this type.” Mr. Fulton went to the telephone and took down the receiver. Quick as a flash, the man in the chair took from his pocket a small vial, removed the cork and drained the contents. The next instant he was lying face downward on the floor. They carried him to the couch but he was beyond all medical aid. The poison had cheated justice. Bill stood by the couch and looked disgustingly at the figure that lay there. “The coward. After all that he has done to bring about suffer¬ ing to others he is afraid to face the death that hS deserves.” “What could you expect, Bill? ' replied Mr. Fulton, returning to the telephone. “He was a German spy.” the End Cla00 Bap Commencement President - -- -- -- -- - Leo M.

We are soon leaving the halls of this institution and will, in time, pass naturally into our respective stations in life. In the years that we have spent here we have ac¬ cumulated a store of most valuable information and rich experiences that will directly affect our thoughts and actions in the years to come. However, we have learned other lessons than those listed in the mere academic catalogue. We have been taught the great truths, of life as well as of mathematics. We have learned lessons far greater than those taught in our text-books—the lessons of com¬ radeship, co-operation and loyalty. In time we will, no doubt, for¬ get much of the superficial training gained here hut all the years to come cannot erase the great life lessons that we have really learned here. Indeed, each succeeding year will cut deeper in the tablet of our memory the fundamental principles here instilled. To those of you who are to follow, let us leave a few words of kindly counsel. We are transmitting to you a school whose honor is unstained. See to it that you keep it so. The name we are leav¬ ing is unsmirched: our records stand as an open book. We are trusting you, succeeding students, to maintain the high ideals we have stood for so that you in turn may give to future classes an unblemished school of spotless character and sterling worth. Classes of ’20, ’21 and ' 22, your duty is clear. Do not shirk it. This is the last time that we, the members of the class of Nine¬ teen Nineteen, have a chance to bid farewell to the student body and faculty of Zanesville High School. We have already given our message to the students and now for a few words of thanks to our teachers. You have been faithful in your efforts to give to the world better men and better women. You have been tireless in as¬ sisting ' us not only with the battles we met in books and the con¬ flicts we had in recitations, but also in preparing us for the greater struggles that we must meet in life. Teachers and officers of Zanesville High School, accept our sincere thanks. We thank you now and we shall thank you even more as the years make clear to us the truth of your teachings. This, the class of Nineteen Nineteen, is the most remarkable class ever graduated from this institution. We have contributed our full share to athletics, debate, and the many interests that make our school stand out as a school among schools. Our scholastic records are high and our achievements along student activities are of the best order. Our years in this high school have not been as smooth as many might suppose. The war, which was in progress ever since we entered in 1915, has played havoc with our number. Then, later on as the war grew closer and closer to our shores, more and more of our members heard the call of our country and left us for its defense. Then disease ravaged our midst and we saw more of our beloved classmates slip into the shadowy realms of death. et in spite of all these difficulties and the large number of obstacles, we, the members of the class of Nineteen Nineteen, graduate not only the largest class that has ever graduated from Zanesville High School but we feel confident the best class that has ever graduated from Zanesville High School. The brief program to be presented this afternoon is but an humble effort on our part to convey to you some of the splendid sentiment of this, the inspiring class of Nineteen Nineteen, which now bids you all farewell. T ,, T Leo M. Levi. CLASS HISTORY In September, 1915, the teachers of Z. H. S., looked on ns for the first time and commented upon our excellence: for they saw a mighty class, willing to work and one that has proven itself loyal and true. As our numbers have decreased, our value has increased accordingly, for such specimens as ourselves are exceedingly rare in the world. Yet we are not the sort which are kept under glass cases. Our Freshman Class numbered 273. There were four Latin and two Commercial rooms, presided over respectively by Miss Har¬ lan, Miss Whitlock, Miss Marsh, Miss Atkinson, Miss W atson and Mr. Smith. While getting acquainted with our surroundings we were self-conscious at first. The upper classes took advantage of this and tried to frighten us and play tricks on us. The History of the first year of our Class was a young “Com¬ edy of Errors.” I will mention a couple affairs of general gossip. One day, Sam Johnson was seen smoking in Room 35. He sat on some matches. The matches responded. Sam arose. On another occasion, one of the teachers said “if there are any more girls with problems, please raise your hand.” Ralph Weber’s hand was imme¬ diately raised very high. Our class has always had a spirit of true sportsmanship in Athletics. During the first year we were represented on every Athletic team. A minstrel show was given in the late fall, taking the place of a Freshman reception. The show was featured by Mitchell’s Minstrels, the constituents being the Z. H. S football team. A short time later, the Freshman covered themselves with glory by presenting a parody on “Romeo and Juliet,” at a Carni¬ val. About the middle of January, on a certain Saturday and Sun¬ day there was a calm before a great storm, which raged for three days. First day—final exams had. Second day—exams worse. Third day—exams worst! On Thursday and Friday we rested while the teachers rested by grading papers. No wonder final exams have been abolished. Triangular Debate was the most exciting event of the year. True school spirit was shown in an unusual way. The Freshman did their part by rooting. But alas! We were not granted a de¬ cision. The debate was soon followed by a carnival for the bene¬ fit of The Comus. We enjoyed a happy summer vacation and returned, rejoic¬ ing that we were no longer Freshmen. Class room teachers were: Mr. Leasure, Mr. Smith, Miss Byers and Miss Vogt. The athletic team from whom little was expected became the winning team in every football game, and we lost no basketball games, until we played Stivers school at the Delaware tournament. This year, old Newark was mercilessly slaughtered in football, basketball, baseball and debate. Much credit was due to the efficiency of our esteemed coach, Mr. Pfeiffer. The girls ' basketball team won all of the games which they played at home. In December, a Minstrel was given for the support of Athletics under the direction of Mr. Brown, and Carl Cashbaugh, and consisted of bigh-class vaudeville acts. Tbe Sophomore debate was an event of great interest, several Sophomores proving their ability for future Triangulars. Two Sophomores were represented in Triangular debate, while there were no Juniors on the team. Z. H. S. was victorious in both de¬ bates. The debates were followed by a big celebration. Two of tbe debaters were from Room 37. A short time after, Room 37 gave a party for the debaters at the home of Leo Levi. It was a festive affair and greatly enjoyed by all. Tbe party was planned by Miss Byers. Class Day and Commencement soon followed, and then another acation. The Autumn of nineteen-seventeen found us back, ready to work, striving to advance tbe standard of the old High School. There were now 159 Juniors. Our Session Room teachers were Miss Erwine, Mr. Young, and Mr. Richards. In Autumn, Room 28 had a weiner roast at Norval Park. Mr. Richards toasted marshmallows and weiners with all the skill of an expert. Athletics opened as usual. But were we victorious? It has been insinuated that we were not. Judgment depends on what a team plays for. If the team desires the winning of games only, we met defeat. If they wish achievement—a clean game with equal and greater opponents—we went “oer the top.” I he Juniors took a prominent part in the Freshman recep¬ tion although some of the Freshmen stayed at home, industrious¬ ly preparing lessons. During a part of the year we held our literary programs with the Seniors, being divided into two societies, ‘‘The Hawthorne” and I he Ergonian . Each society took turns in entertaining the other. In April Miss Reed and Mr. Hetzler presented a cantata which was a tremendous success, many Juniors playing parts worthy of our class. We broke even on Triangular Debate, defeating Mt. Vernon and losing to Newark. Four Junior s took part in Triangular De¬ bate, three of them being on the winning team. Mt. Vernon has now nine pennants; Zanesville has ten, and Newark has eleven. I he summer vacation quickly passed and we returned, having reached the high and misty pinnacle of glory—Seniorhood. Our class now numbers 97. It has been a “survival of the fittest. At least 6 Seniors enlisted in the S. A. T. C., or other military units. Four teachers, Mr. Pfeifer, Mr. Smith, Mr. Moore and Mr. Deihl have played a noble part in the winning of the war. For a long time, while the Huns were pounding the thin allied lines, that near¬ ly all of us would have to go sooner or later, hut the Goernment said . Stay in School, and we have obeyed, but many have “done their hit, by the purchase of Liberty Bonds and Wai Savings Stamps and aiding in other war activities. Although the S. A. T. C.. reduced the number of athletic men. the few who were left did their part and played one-foot-hall game, and then came the epidemic with the Spanish influence. School was dismissed for a month. Four basketball games have been played in which we confess that we were defeated in one and that at Newark. Herbert Lind has frequently enjoyed pleasant dreams in his private sleeping apartments in Room 20, English class, except when once in a while, he received a cruel nudge in the ribs administered by Helen Geary. An operetta, “In India,” was recently presented by the Glee Club, Mr. Brown directing and Mr. Hetzler conducting. It was a great hit with the people of Zanesville. But why should it not he? A number of girls of old nineteen were working with might and main for its success. “Strongheart was chosen as worthy of talent of Class of ' 19. It was presented under the direction of Mr. Olney, a man of great experience in dramatic work, to whom we owe a big debt of grati¬ tude. In Z. H. S. no class play has been better presented or made more of a hit than this. It was a decided treat to the people of Zanesville. It is with deepest regret that I mention here that one of our Class, Miss Lula Sebaugh died on December 15, 1918. We can re¬ call no deeds or achievements but worthy, and we are proud of the pure, industrious, Christian life which she lived. V e have met in Class for the last time, though with relief, yet with regret. We regret that we may not again meet here daily seeing ' so many of our friends, whose acquaintance we have made here. We are departing with all gratitude and thankfulness for each and every member of the faculty who have aided us. Charles Mears, Class Historian. CLASS How swift the hand of time has moved Since we first assembled here To begin our High School labors In pride,—and hope,—and fear. We started that day on a journey In quest of knowledge and truth While the way was all illumined By the golden dreams of youth. Like a star far off in the distance The end of the journey gleamed How remote was the day of parting! How long the journey seemed! How we dreamed and planned and pondered Of the life we’d just begun Of the great things we ' d accomplish Ere the journey should he done. Yet even while we pondered Four milestones we had passed Four happy years were ended Each shorter than the last. We have come to the end of the pathway Our High School life is o’er And we find at the close of the journey A wide and open door. POEM ' Tis the door to a life of Service Let us enter without delay To answer the call for helpers In the world’s great work today. With trustful heart and willing hand We pass through that open door To make the world wiser, stronger. And better than before. Of our strength and youth and vigor In Service we’ll gladly give That the False and the Wrong may perish That only the right may live. Wherever our work may call us Our love can never die And our fondest memories will linger Round dear old Zanesville High. ' Tho we sink to the depths of Failure Or reach Fame ' s dazzling height While we live we’ll still he loyal To the colors —Blue and White. As we enter the dim vast Future May the grace of a Power Divine Be the guiding star that lights the way Of the Class—One-Nine-One-Nine! Ruth Fox. CLASS DAY ORATION “SCHOOL AND A START IN LIFE” Education is worth just the difference it makes in the activ¬ ities of the individual who has been educated. It is not a question of how much History, Latin, or Mathematics you know, but rather the use which you make of this knowledge. This statement is in direct opposition to the old idea of the use of an education but is a confirmation of the idea expressed by B. Franklin, that education is not the stuffing of the memory but the development of the mind. The aim of education is stated variously; to the popular mind it means little more than a means of maintenance but “the theorist would define the purpose of an education in the terms of the de¬ velopment of the individual of growth, of culture, of morality.” hen society reaches that stage where progress is sought for, the stage of conscious evolution, it is not enough that one attain only his own selfish ends. Each individual is a part of the organic whole and it is for the good of the whole that is of paramount importance. The aim of an education must be broad enough to include both the welfare of the individual and the good of society. No one can do the most for his community or country who has not realized, through education, the development of those abilities with which he is peculiarly endowed. It is only through the participation in social life that the highest individual development is possible. Then there is no opposition between the view of education which declares that the welfare of society of paramount importance and that which demands individual well-being. If we are successful in attaining the former we must have secured the latter. However, define education as we may, the following statistics are proof of the successes attained through education. An investi¬ gation of the educational advantage employed by 8,000 persons in “Who is Who in America,” brought out the following facts: Out of 5,000,000 uneducated people only 31 persons have attained suffi¬ cient success to obtain a place among the 8,000 named in this book. Out of 33,000,000 people with as much as a common school edu¬ cation, 808 were able to win a place in the list, while out of 2,000,- 000 with a High School education, 1,245 manifested this marked efficiency, and out of 1,000,000 with College or University training, 5.768 are named. That is to say that only one child out of 150,000 uneducated children was able to gain distinction; those children with common school training were in proportion to numbers able to accomplish this four times as often; those with High School training, 87 times as often, while those with College training, 800 times as often. The necessity for an education has increased and will continue to increase as the process of civilization advances. Because of the unparalelled advancement of the art and science, the necessity of an education has steadily increased. For an example, 50 vears ago, the transportation was little more than a wagon and a driver who knew the road, while now in handling the problem of transporta¬ tion, experts in traffic must first determine whether a road in a cer¬ tain place is worth while; experts in finance must provide the tre¬ mendous sum for its construction; civil engineers must lay it; chem¬ ical engineers to test the materials and other responsible positions must he filled. These positions must be filled by men who are able to assume the responsibility and carry it through to a successful termination. One of the lessons most emphatically brought to our minds, • luiing the lecent peiiod of world strife, has been that of efficiency as the result of preparedness. And another, of almost equal force, was that an education, while not, perhaps, a guarantee of success, S oc - O’ towaid contributing to it; that the educated man is already well on his way on a start in life. Paul German CLASS PROPHECY Well, it ' s just great the way a person can find out anything from the Government now. Here the other night I was sitting wondering about all my old classmates, and I thought—I’ll write to the Information Bureau of the Government—as they sav the Gov¬ ernment knows everything about everybody, so 1 wrote and they sent me a list of the people and what they are all doing. Of course I knew about some and didn ' t have to inquire for them, but here are the rest. It will be so interesting. My, what dreams we had when we were young— ' here I hoped to be a great architect and am still hoping. Well, let ' s see—who’s first—Margaret Allbritain, married— how comprehensive. Why it doesn ' t tell who a single one of the girls is married to. That ' s a shame, but perhaps I can guess some anyway. Herbert Lind—proprietor of motion picture theatre—and you know Herbert has the pleasure of presenting some of his old schoolmates on the screen—for several have entered the movies. There ' s Virginia Grassel who has replaced Nazimova and Helen Geary and Margaret Mason are playing leads in their own com¬ panies. Helen’s latest picture was called “Troubles with Cash.’’ I don’t know just what kind it was but anyway Helen was leading woman in it By the way, Margaret’s leading man is Clarence Miller—he’s a regular matinee idol and all the girls just adore him. Next is Edward Allen, writer—he has written a book on penman¬ ship which is used in all the leading schools of the country and here’s another writer—Clara Brauning She has written one very successful book on “How to Grow.” Who is next? Lois Collins— detective—well, well, where did she get her practice? She’s good, too, for I remember that it was through her efforts that Llarold Feichter was caught and sent to Sing Sing. He had been putting washers instead of nickels in the fare boxes on street cars. Here ' s Gladys Baldridge, dancer and vocalist with a minstrel show. Ruth Cover—missionary—Ruth wanted to go and reform the Germans but she gave them up as a hopeless task and is now after the Chinese. “Chinese” always reminds me of Claribel Maier trying to learn the Chinese language. Claribel always liked to talk to men and as she had heard there were more Chinese men in the world than any other kind she started in on that language, but she soon stopped because she said the Chinamen weren’t a bit handsome anyway. Now in¬ stead of Chinese, Mildred Conoway is studying Greek. She just adores “Homer” and wishes to be an expert along that line for many years to come. Reading farther we find Alice Dickinson is a librarian, and when you go in and ask for a book she goes straight to it. George Fitz is a physician. George has lived up to his nickname of “Doc Pill and has established a “pill factory” somewhere in Ohio—he claims his pills will cure anything from a scratched finger to in¬ sanity. I ve heard that Arthur Smith, the druggist, has a tonic which will make fat people thin and that Arthur takes so much of it himself that he is nearly bankrupt. Jane Hall is married. Oh, yes. she’s married and lives in the Sahara desert, but I suppose she could be happy even there with an “A—rab. Next is Kenneth Winn—inventor. He has invented something so useful to school pupils—a typewriter eraser guaran¬ teed not to be detected by the teacher. Inventors seem to come in bunches for here’s another—William Cover, who has perfected an automobile which carries six people comfortably in the hack seat. Then Clayton Smith has discovered how to make girls understand the study of Physics—that is remarkable and I wish it had been invented when I was in school. Grace Fritz is another. She has tried and tried all these years and has finally discovered a machine harmless in its workings to take the curl out of one’s hair. Ellen Westfall and Marian Hanna have also been tireless in their efforts to improve the race, they together having devoted all their time and talents to revising the calendar, making four hundred days in one year, since they never seemed to have enough time for anything. Next is Harry Jones, a sailor. He entered the Navy and like every sailor has a girl in every port. Clara Blickle is married—now who could she have married? Maybe its’ a postman. I know she used to wait for one every morn¬ ing. but perhaps it isn’t he, it might possibly be someone else. Here is Mary Louise Brooks, an artist. She is a very famous designer of ladies’ clothing, and, talking of clothing, Mary Louise Roberts is a leading modiste (as she calls herself) and, no wonder, for she has Mildred Long as an assistant and Mildred always did have such a persuasive and exhausting manner of talking that people would buy whether they wanted to or not. Here is Russell Harris, too. He is a famous umbrella mender and knife sharpener and owns a sort of ‘Fix-it-all Shop.” Elsie Bush—music teacher. She and Grace Kaplan have a Musical Institute, Elsie teaching piano and Grace violin, while they both give attention to voice culture. Next is Marie Atchinson— suffraget. She ' s a good one, too. She looks just like one ought to look, for Marie is five feet ten inches tall and weighs one hundred and eighty pounds—hard to imagine it, isn ' t it though? Marie told me that she had a dreadful time convincing Ethel Crawmer of the justice of “Women’s Rights.” Ethel kept insisting that she didn’t need any rights because her husband let her do just as she pleased anyway. Here’s Mabel Guthrie, on the lecture platform, telling funny Irish stories in dialect that just makes her audience scream with laughter. William Reillev—lawyer. William has a hard time in life. He has been divorced four times and it takes all his energy to secure his own cases let alone being a lawyer for anyone else. Carolyn Shilling and Beulah Shaw are both married and set¬ tled on farms down the river. Beulah at Gaysport, and Carolyn a little nearer town. Another farmerette is Cleo Jenkins and her farm is a very extraordinary one as she raised one product which is onions, without any odor. Still another farmer is Thelma Mar¬ shall, hut Thelma raises flowers while her husband tends to the rest of the farm. Quite a jump from country to New York City but here the list gives Alice Mills. Alice is the first successful woman financier in the United States and with a firm hand she is holding down ail the “Prices” within her reach. Another citizen of the metropolis is Hugh Thompson, who is writing scenarios for a motion picture company located there. Also Ferris Saad is starring on Broadway. Ferris is rather disappointed in himself, as he always wanted to go in the army. Next is Thelma Weaver, a teacher in a school down in Ala¬ bama. Here is Wilburt Fulton—salesman. ilburt claims he sells piore automobile tires than anyone else because he knows how to sell them and of course we’ll take his word for it, but John Row¬ land says that half the business in his garage is due to repairing the tires which Wilburt sells. Lester Todd is a newspaper man. He has a little newstand in Newark and he also sells hot-roasted pea¬ nuts at five cents the bag. Speaking of Newark, you know Doris Wild always had such a great desire to go there but it costs an im¬ mense amount of money for the trip, but Doris finally collected this vast sum by matching pennies, an art at which she is quite pro¬ ficient. Here is Leo Levi, an artist. Leo has attained his desire of being a great cartoonist—he had many difficulties to overcome, too, because some people wanted him to be an orator or lawyer or some¬ thing like that. Mildred Maxwell—a hair-dresser. Oh, yes, she and Glenna Koos have started a Beauty Parlor on Main street. Homer Hallet is a preacher. I think his church is in Adams- ville, and Clinton Downey teaches school right next door to it— it’s a little red schoolhouse and I can just see Clinton standing by a high old desk with a hickory-stick in his hand and a pair of spec¬ tacles on the end of his nose. It seems that our class must have been fond of school, for so many of them are teachers—everything from the president of a college down to a kindergartener, for Con¬ stance Marshall is president of Wellesly College for Women, and they say she gives perfectly marvelous lectures on developing in¬ dividuality of our characters. Then, May Kearns teaches the little country school at Dillin’s Falls and Carol Peregoy has a hie kinder- garten—the children have great times because Carol teaches them to dance jigs. One of the most famous of us is little Chauncey Swingle. He is the star pitcher on the Chicago Cubs baseball team and one day Chauncey was knocked down while in the pitcher ' s box and all he said when he recovered was “That wasn’t funny!” Then, here is Prank Stremmel, a confectioner. Frank has an ice cream parlor and candy stoie and he is getting quite wealthy because he keeps open all night—always having been used to late hours. Next is Helen McSwords, actress. I heard that Helen ran away from home to join a theatrical troupe because she thought her talent lay in that direction. Here ' s another 1 should never have suspected of talent from in such a line—Wendell Scott is exhibit¬ ing his futurist drawings in one of the noted galleries. The only trouble is that Wendell always has to put the titles on his drawings. Helen Tanner is a stenographer. I heard that Helen has a dreadful time keeping her positions because she gets off to go to the movies so often. Here is Edith Farley—an instructor in gymnas¬ tics. She has taken many medals for her basketball playing and has also organized a woman’s baseball team and one of her players on the team is Marie Pyle. I’d never have believed it of Marie. Well, next is Dorothy Kirkendall—principal of Zanesville High School—what an honor! I’ve heard that if it wasn’t for time, Dor¬ othy wouldn’t need any other teachers—because she can teach ev¬ erything herself, but they do have others. Mildred Dozer has charge of the Commercial pupils and Hope Danford teaches Latin. Emma Talley did teach Bookkeeping a while but then decided to go out as traveling saleswoman and is now quite successfully sell¬ ing farm implements. Marie Herron has started the first factory for making fudge, she became quite famous at it when sending so much to the soldier boys. Here ' s one in Europe. Wilma Bell is research director of Ohio State University. 1 remember Wilma has been hunting Erythycia in the ruins left by the European war. Another in Europe is Helen Scheffler. Helen went over right after the war to bake pies for the soldiers detained over there and the Parisians became so fond of her pies that she has stayed and started “Le Patissiere des Tarts in Paris. 1 have not heard anything about Elinor Abel for a long time. The last I did hear she had just returned from France. She had gone over as a Red Cross nurse and worked in a hospital where the soldiers not yet well were kept. After one look at her, even the most hopeless cases recovered. Needless to say, she met the khaki clad man of her choice over there and it says on this list that she’s married. Emily Hoskinson is in Europe, too. Her husband is military attache at one of the great courts, Italian I think. Well, next is Charlie Mears, evangelist. He is a wonder, too. Charlie started in with Billy Sunday but Billy thought that Charlie as taking all the notoriety so he dismissed him and now Charlie is leading the con¬ verts up the saw-dust trail himself. The other day while reading the paper, I noticed an advertise¬ ment of Fred Torbert, pugilistic instructor, and one of Earl Til¬ ton’s. Earl is selling landsca pes on one of the upper floors of the National Bank building. They say Earl always insists on being on about the top floor because he likes to be close to the “Garrett.” Also, I read a little essay by Warne Still entitled “How to Behave When Hysterical. I couldn’t understand it at all so I decided Warne must have been slightly hysterical when he wrote it. They tell me Jennie Lawson is matron of a hospital, but that her hospital is not very popular with doctors because they say that she gives the patients too many good things to eat, even though she does blame it on to Jean Tracey, one of the nurses there. One of the chief critics is David Crossland, M. D., who is practicing medi¬ cine on North Seventh street, Zanesville. Ohio. David has quite a large practice and even some of his old schoolmates patronize him, for Lawrence Morrison told me the other day that he has been going to Doctor Crossland—Lawrence is singing at movie per¬ formances and one of his songs—“I’m Sorry I Made You Cry — is so encored that he strained his throat and has had to have it treated. It’s a shame, because he had a perfectly wonderful voice. A great many of our class are quite noted singers but only one has reached grand opera and that is Louise McConnel who is now singing the leading role in “Le Boheme at the Metropolitan. Josephine Stotts is singing in musical comedy, and Edna Mvlius is quite a vocalist in her own town. She is married now too. and her singing is quite an attraction at the fraternity dances. Louise Hannum is a representative in Congress. Louise has just presented a bill to prohibit people from using the name of Smith—she says there are so many Smiths that she gets them ali mixed up. Next is Olive Taylor, a writer. She writes very deep works, far beyond the comprehension of the common mind—her latest one is entitled “Essays on Super-halucination. Irma Loeb is a dancing teacher. She has started a school which is like a Rus¬ sian school of dancing only that it isn ' t Russian and isn’t dancing, in fact. The only trouble with it is that she has such a strongf com- petitor for fame—Earl Playford, who is also a dancing instructor and is very successful and Graceful, too—despite the fact that he wears No. 11 2 shoes. As a side issue, Milton Denner spends his time driving our old friend Miss Erwine around in a Packard twin- six—he always was her pet when he was in High School, even if she did say that he mumbled his words too much. The sheriff of Muskingum County is Charles Sode. ' file other day I read where a man escaped from him and that man was Paul German. He had been arrested for bigamy. They claimed that he had seven wives. What a life Paul must have led and I could hard¬ ly believe him capable of such a thing. There was quite an article about his case in the papers. It was tried before Judge Samuel Lane Johnson, who is now common pleas judge. Sam is quite a prominent politician, too—he started as an office boy, is now judge, and at the same rate will soon be Governor. Another politician is Frank Brush, but Frank is more of a literary one—he is editor of the leading Zanesville paper and that paper is noted for its edi¬ torials. It has some clever poems, too, for Ruth Fox writes some. Hers are called ‘‘Jitney Jingles” and are so popular with children. Then Dougie Duncan writes great long poems in which the mean¬ ing is so deeply hidden that no one understands them not even Douglas. Next on the list is Merle Welsh, a school-mistress. Merle has started a Young Ladies’ Seminary—she s so strict too doesn t al¬ low a bit of giggling or talking. How does she do it? The last one here is another perfect wonder to me Ralph Weber, B. A., M. A., B. L., professor of dead languages in an Eastern University. He had sold his pretzel foundry years ago. Ralph is so different, he wears a beard and is dignified! Well, reading this list, I am surprised at some people, and at others I’m not; some are just what I expected and others are the very opposite, but all together it certainly is great to know about them and I just hope that they are all doing what pleases them most. Katherine Gal.igher. . A � CLASS WILL Know all men by these presents.

Class 1919—Alice Dickinson, Attorney. BOYS’ BASKETBALL TEAM (Concluded from page 40) Owing to a late start the team th is year was handicapped hut, nevertheless, it performed its duty with much credit to itself and the coaching of Mr. Richards. Team practice started on the last Fri¬ day in April with about thirty fellows trying out. From this num¬ ber in the next week was picked the first team, consisting of Dun¬ can, Capt., and Griffiith, forwards; Miller, center, and Black and Mulvey. guards, with Bolin and Swingle as substitutes. After a week of practice we defeated the alumni team on Wednesday. March 12. by a score of 32 to 24. On Friday, March 14, Zanesville met Newark on Newark ' s floor for her first scheduled game. With the team went a good sized crowd of rooters whose efforts greatly supplemented the players ' efforts. One feature of the evening was the excitement caused by the collapse of one of the spctators’ benches on which sat one of the high school officials. It was neces¬ sary for him to be carried from the hall. The final score was 22 to 17 in favor of Newark. All the players deserve credit for their good work. Lineup and summary: Z. H. S. Position.

The game was fast and exciting, the referee seeing how many fouls he could call on Zanesville while McCann kept track of Crooksville’s fouls and called hardly less on them. Every one was convinced that Zanesville was handed a dirty deal by the referee in the first half. Final Lineup and summary: score was 19 to 18 in Crooksville’s favor. Z. H. S. Position. Crooksville.

However, next year this condition need not be with a splendid armory almost finished and a large Y. M. C. A. in pro¬ cess of construction. Clarence Miller “I call therefore, a complete, generous education that which fits man to perform justly, skillfully, and magnanimously, all the offices both private and public of peace and of war.”— Milton.
