Fifty graduating classes have passed from the doors of dear old Lima High, before us. Fifty times have schoolmates felt that same spirit of reluctance which we feel now when we think of quitting the well-loved halls where the last four years of our school life have been spent. XYe are going on into our life work: no matter what path we may follow, there will inevitably be brought back to our minds, fragments, bits of reminiscences, fond recollections of the many pleasant hours which we have spent in connection with the old school. Certain people of the class have been elected to the all im- portant task of recording such things in connection with our High School life as might bring back pleasant memories of it. Their work could never be complete and the pages in this volume do little justice to the class, but to their efforts, such as they are, we now leave you by expressing, tinally, the feeling of utmost pleasure which they have derived from the work which was theirs to do.

That's the way the Seniors looked at, or rather, said it. , However, it was largely true, for who of the re- maining few does not remember with what an empty feeling in his stomach he came up to that awful, cav- ernous front of the building where groups of magnih- cent looking upper classmen stood around, probably remarking on our personal appearance? At least that's how we felt. So much for the first day's entrance. After we finally found some seats the well known Mr. Steffens came on the platform and gave out formidable looking schedules and told us the direction of the rooms ac- cording to the compass. That's all for that day, and we went up to Schell's Cadvertising not solicitedl, to get our funny sounding books, such as Bellum Hekticum, etc. So far it has been easy. but finding our rooms was another thing altogether. if is ff wk Pk Presently order came out of chaos and Herbert Hale became our President, with Harold Wlilliams Yice President and Hazel Vlfright as Secretary and Treasurer. Much awe on our part that any one had the bravery to get up before the class without falling in a dead faint from fright. The usual routine followed, occasionally light- ened by Mr. Cotner's or Mr. Binkley's jerking some fellow out of his seat and incidentally his shoes, much to our edification. After some time our President left us and in the natural order of things Harold Miller became our leading man. Presently the matter of the class Mirror came up and after various people being nominated, Violet Brad- ley was chosen Editor, with Ronald Cuthbert as Busi- ness Manager. Naturally, from these two and the class, the paper was a success financially and from a literary and humorous point of view. - After this climax was worked up to and then worked off, things settled down to the old humdrum of study, recitations, day in, day out, week in, week out. occasionally broken by an exciting speech from an upper classman or, joy of joys, when we were sent to the Upper Assembly Balcony for a real talk. Pres- ently. however, we led up to the fatal day when we received our four by live white cardboards that told us whether or no we had reached the heights of our desires-to be called a Sophomore and have a seat in the Upper Assembly. jAMEs W. PIALFHILL, JR. Mftfil' ttfflv' X AS SOPHOMGRES HE Class of '15 in their Freshman year, as seems to be the case with most of the new classes. did not have enough ambition to have a class meeting until quite awhile after school had commenced. At last they had a meeting at which Miss jones pre- sided until the President was elected. Herbert Hale was elected President: Harold Miller, Vice-l'resident5 Violet Bradley, Treasurer: and Hazel Wright. Secre- tary. Herbert Hale was also elected Editor of the FRESHMAN Mnutoa, but as he left school before it was published, Violet Bradley was made Editor and Ron- ald Cuthbert Business Manager. No class colors were selected at this meeting and there were no more meetings held during the year. The MIRRIJR came out in May and everyone was surprised at what the Freshies really could do, The next class meeting was in the Sophomore year. but at this meeting nothing at all was accom- plished. At the second meeting. however, the Sophs got over their bashfulness and elected Mark Fuller l'residenl g llufo liisher, Yice-Presidentg Lucile Knise- ly, Treasurer, and Hazel 1Yright. Secretary. After this Yielet llradlcy was unanimously chosen Editor of TUE l1'1lRRUR, wl ile .lames Halfhill was made Business Manager. During tlze third meeting the class colors were selected. Sevcral color combinations were offered, but all were rejected except cardinal and grey, it being favored entirely by the girls, who were in the major- ity. The Foruomomz Mnuzok appeared in April and its attractive good qualities again displayed the ability of the Class of '15. The spirit of the class has risen during its two years of existence and we all hope it will continue to rise and make the best graduates that l.. ll. S, has ever known. ,IAMEs XV. llAI.l IllI.L, ju., llistorizm. AS JUNIORS Q K UREKA, Eureka, or something similar to that in meaning. quoth an aged man with an impossible name in a country which ancient times. away back in 1914 A. D., was known as the United States of America. In a par- ticular portion of that great long since passed country known as l.ima, in Ohio, when he espied a peculiar crumpled form as it lay among the ruins of that once great metropolis. just what he and many other famous archaeolo- gists had looked for, for centuries: A Lima High School Annual of 1914 A, D.. and this in the year 5751 A. D.: he would be rich for life, and famous the world over, too. Long years he had studied the ruins of this vasi and ancient city: long years he had searched. tinding the more obsolete newspapers which merely told when the book was published and that the class of 1014 pub- lished it, and what was more, it gave the history of th,- Class of 1915. However, at last he was rewarded by finding an almost perfect -copy written in the prevailing language of the time-English. Nothing daunted by the fact that the book was written in the ancient and difficult English, he set to work and labored many months upon it. lN'ord by word, sentence by sentence, he patiently. slowly pieced the thing together and made a transla- . . 6 X at T fx -gV'- il 1 I ' TR I . mass ef 4 Mfcmxv ' 4 X T P tion of it for his race that all might read the history of the Class of 1915, and the 1914 Annual, the fables of which had been handed down among the tribes to the descendants of the peoples of Lima for ages. As word by word he translated it he found that at the time of the world and in that ancient country ab- breviated as U. S. A., in the High School there were four classes then known as, first, the lowest of Fresh- man Class, rising in importance as Sophomores, and juniors, until the highest place as Seniors. Under the division of the juniors he discovered that in their Freshman year 1911, when they were known as sheep, they held, after much delay, a class meeting which was presided over by Miss jones, who had some connection with the institution. Finally .1 President of the class was elected, one Herbert Haleg his Vice-President, Harold Miller: Hazel VVright, Sec- retary, and Violet Bradley, Treasurer. He then found that a very creditable publication was edited by the class treasurer as editor, assisted by Ronald Cuthbert as business manager of the paper. It seems that very little else was done this year and that the Sophomore year started out a little better, although there was a regular political mess as to who the president of the first meeting should be. Finally, it seems, all was straightened out, and Mark Fuller was elected President of the budding class, Rufo Fisher, Vice-President, Lucile Knisely. Treasurer, and Hazel XVright, Secretary. During this year the colors, cardinal and gray, were selected by the girls, as they had their own way, being in a strong two-thirds majority. This year Violet Rradley edited a good paper. with James Half- hill as business manager. ' The junior, or third year of school life, the scien-- tist found, opened a little more briskly yet. The first meeting was held early in the year, Mark Fuller pre- siding until ofhcers were elected. He himself was nominated for the Presidency, but declined, where- upon James Halfhill, another candidate, was put up and received the office. Clara Graham was elected Vice-President, Nell Bigley Treasurer, and Mark Fuller. Secretary. During subsequent meetings he read that colors, orange and blue, were chosen, this time the boys and girls agreeing more amicably. Teams of various sorts were organized: Baseball, with Wallace Hooper as Manager, Hockey, with Bob Sullivan as Manager, and Basketball, with McGinnis as Captain and Pepple as Manager, An excellent literary society was organ- ized, with Ross Pepple at its head as President. Au- other publication of the Mirror seemed to have been published by Ross Pepple and jake Minsky, but this publication had disappeared. .IAMEs XV. FTALFHILL, jk. AS SENIORS L. H. S.

But they are so few I shall try to appreciate them and perhaps shall be able to get one more permit from Misa Snook before I leave the knowledge factory. Does it seem like four years since we entered the portals of High and can you remember when we became Seniors? How very important we felt! But still, I'll miss the dear old place and its asso- ciations, as you have, no doubt.

Didn't you consider it a clever suggestion for the Class of '15 to erect aillag-pole at the Athletic Field? The conse- quent flag rushes were very exciting. don't you think? But how honored we did feel when a Senior, Hazel W'right. was chosen queen of the Mardi Gras, with many of her maids and attendants Seniors! Florence. were you here the day of the Sudragc Parade? All the boys came in the Assembly Room with pennants on and caused lots of confusion. It was just as bad St. Patricks Day. But the girls kept up with the boys that day, especially Gail Dorsey with her Minstrel suit. And then you had to leave. livery one missed you so much-and still do. Mary Knox fills the va- cant chair now. I am sorry you were not here for thc Senior Play-it was great. The rehearsals especially were scads of fung really, one night Fred Robinson discovered that Shakespeare had used a word of which he didn't know the meaniii. Did you know the class bought a new green carpet for the occasion. which we trust will serve many other Senior Classes? W'e gave a penny carnival for the basketball team the week after you left l.. H. S. It was loads of fun and at least helped to send the team to Delaware even though they did lose out. But they will do better next yearg you know Holly is captain for 1916. On April seventh Mr. Herron entertained the basketball team and the girl friends of the players with an Orpheum Thea're party. A motion picture was taken of the students leaving the High School and later shown on the Lyric screen. And at a class meet- ing May tenth it was decided that we should present to the school as a remembrance of the Class of '15, thc picture of Mr. Steffens which you remember of having seen at Fermer's. Don't you think that is great? NVe're having a time here practicing for the Class Day operetta. but you'll be here for it so I need not tell you about it. Of course we are all looking fore- ward to the .Iunior Reception.

Greenness for the Freshman, owl-like wisdom for the Sophomore, dignityand haughty pride for the Senior, but earnest endeavor for the junior. Simplicity and straightforwardness have ever been important nouns in the two preceding year-books of our class. Let this year's history be like them. Do you remember, classmates, with what a thrill we climbed the flights of steps to the Upper Assembly in order :o'register our names as juniors? On the next day, how did it feel to have the Fresh- men nudge each other and whisper in awed tones, It's one of the old girls, or boys? At our class meeting, called immediately, prac- tically the same officers were elected to their old po- sitions of last year, with the exception of our presi- dent, Ralph Sweeney, who has served a very satis- factory first term. May he preside a second as suc- cessfully. Next we organized our Literary Society, under the name of the Pierian. The elections were wisely made and the very best people were chosen for the responsible positions. XYe owe the Presi- dent, George Coe, much praise. for he has done more than his share in making the society a success. XYQ of the Literary Band feel amply repaid for the work that we have done and surely as a class we have spent many a pleasant hour together in learning and in laughing, for neither instruction nor fun has been lacking. The Junior Mirror was published almost on time this year. Oh, wonder at that! The staff was nearly the same as that of last year, and certainly each officer did his part. The junior class offers its sincere gratitude to the editor, Robert Douglass, to Lura Mae Gallaspie and Jeanette Knisley, art ed- itors, three people who did so much for the lylirror. A school paper without cuts is as a needle without an eye. No good, of course. Not only was this de- partment well filled, however, but each editor put forth his best efforts to make his part of the paper successful. He accomplished his end. v Next our class gave its play Green Stockings' XYe all enjoyed several hearty laughs over the ridic- ulous scenes and situations portrayed, partially be- cause they were funny in themselves, but chiefiy be- cause the author's ideas were so excellently carried out by the actors. One more success, juniors. XYe have spoken of some of the more important events, now let us review briefly the lesser class affairs. Our pins were even more than we anticipated, and our selection was greatly praised by the other classes. Nearly every junior is now wearing his class pin, which shows admirable spirit. Those pins took two bones, too. Then our banquet that never was. Such plans we made, such glorious eats we had decided upon.-the very thought of them makes our mouths water. But acting upon the advice of Nr. SteH'ens and of our class president, it was de- cided to postpone it indefinitely. XYoe! W'oe! Our class work as to recitations has been both good and bad, yet the place we hold upon this year's hono- roll is not to be despised. The faculty will uphold us in this belief, we feel sure. Only by dint of much coaxing was permission obtained to have the annual junior Prom. liach year our faculty grows more opposed to the ex- penditure of the reception. Let us hope that our Seniors will enjoy it as much as we shall enjoy do- ing this one last thing for the class departing for- ever frorn dear old Lima Hi. Juniors, this is the record of our class for this year. Next year will be our last here, too. It is close to fifty-eight years now since the first Junior class realized this same fact. Shall we make our four years' record one that will be honored by our schoolmates, or shall we drag it into the mire by careless deeds? Oh, juniors, be careful lest our record be not all that we could wish it, but so far it has been clean and honest, and as we look back over our third year of work, l think we can truly say, A year well spent H1LDA LEETE.

T s Q . .. ---N X . fl: 1 W , 5 l I rr f HISTORY OF ' FRESIIMAN YEAR. IMA High School reminds me of a large ter- minal station, where the different trains from the grammar schools of Lima enter to form one large train headed toward the land of knowledge. So the Class of 1917 entered Lima Hi. During the first part of the Freshman year the train had a rather hard time to start-as does an engine going up grade. But after the Board of Directors fthe Classj elected Chester Churchill as Engineer, Helen Hunter as Fire- man, Josephine Sherwood as Brakeman Ctreasurerj, Fred Simpson as Conductor Csecretaryj, things ran more smoothly. Eleanor Price, the Editor, reminded me of the Baggagemaster, who unloaded the genius of the Class of '17 upon the public. The office of Busi- ness Manager-pardon me, I meant to say financier of the road-was filled by Eugene Aspinall. But before the trip was ended and the baggage unloaded. Eugene resigned and his office was successfully filled by John Riktlf. But as the crew had never been over the road before, the train ran by fits and starts. The crowning event of the trip was the display of the talents of the Directors fand Crew? in the Freshman Mirror. It created quite a commotion, being the largest load ever handled by one crew. SUI'llUIllURE YEAR. Un our next trip, beginning in September, 1914, it was not so hard to select a fitting crew, for the Directors had had experience the year before. Ches- ter Churchill was chosen as Chief Engineer tp and chosc a Cat as his mascotjg Helen Hunter as Second Engineer, Thurston Shreeves as Brakeman and Fre- man tto shovel int?5 the coal fnioneyij, and El- eanor Price as Baggagemaster. Howard McDonald served as Financier. The Crew having been over the road the preced- ing year, pointed out the rough places to the Engineer. who ran slowly over them. Thus there were few com- plaints from the Uirectors. The Baggagemaster received contributions at in- tervals during the year, so when the time came. in May, to unload the accumulated matter, a remarkable show- ing was made, the results being the largest of the year. Many compliments were given to the Uirectors for the good work of the Railroad. Engineer Churchill brought his train into the sta- tion in June, 1915, without an accident to blot the rec- ord established in the first half of our journey through The trip ended very happily in June, 1914. the Lima Hi.

BITS GF TO HAT is written here is nothing new to us: we have heard all of it perhaps a hundred times or more: but the thoughts to be given have been keys to success and ever bear re- peating. A part of'the' foundation upon which we must build our futures. has now been completed. After leaving Lima High School there is open to us two plans for continuation: either to face imme- diately the world's conflicts or to prepare ourselves better by furthering our education. The man who refuses the opportunity of a higher education open- ly declares to the world that he feels himself capa- hle of filling his position in life with as great effi- ciency as the trainedman. This may be true in a few eases. Nevertheless. which ever course we choose, we have some dehnite place to occupy, and it is our dutv to fill it to the best of our ability. lYhy not go into our work with the right spirit and avoid cheating ourselves in looking for the easy things. Difficulties make the man. In order to be successful everyone knows that a definite conception must be held in mind-we must work toward a goal. Punctuality,-how vague a meaning the majority of vs possess of this word! An appointment at eight never means eight fifteen nor eight five: it means eight. Twice late in a great Eastern electrical company, and your work is lost. Vvhere there is prosperity there is svstem, and there minutes mean monev. A minute lost is a slip in the great machinery of business and results in lost motion and a loss in competition. That is why the Twentieth Centurv Limited guar- antees each' of its passengers a refund of money for every minute it is late. The world is full of different types of people, and it is the man that can gain the conhdence of any one of these that stands the best chance. livery man has his own ideas and manv times we do not realize that they are as real to him as yyy, ,four own arte w I r H ,14ir,.Lll,li...aww1ii .wma-I 'I LIKE DO to us. By tolerating the views of others and ac- cepting them on the basis of their value, we broaden our minds and sympathies. The narrow-minded fellow never benefits other persons unless it is by his faults, from which we should profit, Think of the other fellow,-a little act of kind- ness may sometime be remembered by him when we are most in need. A friend is always a valuable specimen to treasure in our collection, and true friends are never too numerous. It will never hurt us to treat the man with whom we deal honestly, and trust him until he deceives us: give him a fair chance, then if he fails do not be the one to help kick him on down or get even with himg the down- ward path is steep enough. It may be throuffh N . A your helping hand that he realizes his mistake. lf our education is to amount to anything, these thoughts will fall naturally into our working formula and we will profit by them. A lost oppor- tunity ean never be regained. The world, business, professional or social, has no room for an educated crookg sometime he willygo into bankruptcy. So in taking hold of opportunities we should take the right kinds and let the tainted ones alone. Catch 'em early is a motto well used by a prominent col- lege professor. Then that we once have them, make the best out of them. Iiach of these and many, many more have been the keys to well-known men's success. Let us then, which ever plan of construc- tion we may choose. put the most we can into it, for without investing in a proposition we can not expect returns. If we fail, let us start again and profit bv previous mistakes, but let us not be quit- ters. The number of times we have been advised concerning these things we could not remember: but man, it seems, must go blindly about bumping his head against this and that until finally he learns for himself. ' li l - al Fl y X CUPID SHA LEY ELIEVE me, we had some quartette when I was a Senior in old Stewart High School. Johnny Berlin, who's Irish but acts like a white man, sang first bass, Tommy Fielding, our star quarterback, covered second. QNow don't ask me who played left field. Somebody took a hammer and cracked that joke when they were laying the foundations for the pyramidsj George Nelson- they called him Lud which is short for Lord - sailed the high Qs like his adopted ancestor, while me, yours truly, the one and only original D'Arcy Emery Irvin, profanely known to the bunch as Spider, carried the lead-not led, QDoggone the United States languagej And say! our reper- tory would make a phonograph company's record catalogue look like a book of blank verse. VVee! VVee! Yes, I speak French fiuidly. Garsong! Fetch the lady an absinthe frappe. Let us now proceed with the introduction of our hero. We, meaning the double duet of yodelers, had remained in the upper assembly after dismissal, one afternoon, to work out some new songs we intended to spring-I mean, sing, at the next meeting of the Senior Literary Society. It was about four o'clock and we were crowded around the piano over in a corner on the girls' side of the room. Most of the fellows had gone out to football practice-it being early October--and only an occasional girl came in now and then, lingering barely long enough to shove some books in her desk and leave hurriedly. I never could understand why they all made such hasty exits, the faces of several even bearing unmis- takable expressions of annoyance, not to say down- right pain. H ln the Evening by the Moonlight and a couple of other old reliables had been tried and ex- ecuted-first-degree murder in every instance-and we finally decided to cease hostilities and bring the ceremony some clothes--I mean, to a close-with that renowned and ancient ballad which endeth thusly: It's a lawng, lawng way tuh Tippa-ray-ree, But mah hot's rot they-are! Tommy Fielding's final bird-like note faded away without an echo, like the lazy Autumn sun- shine which was filtering through the windows on the other side of the room, and Audrey Percy Mars gently raised his nigh hoof off the loud pedal and arose from the piano stool, when there came to our defenseless and unwilling ears a peculiar sound such as is emitted by a Thomas cat on the back fence when the moon is shining and you haven't a thing to throw excepting a soft sofa pillow with Our Flag embroidered in red, white, and blue on the top. Georgie Nelson held his head on one side and listened intently like a puppy dog who wants to bark before you say Speak! Ye Wfizards of Oz, he hissed, melodramatic- ally, what's that ? That, me lud. is the Abyssinian Weeney-hound calling to its mate, I ventured. 'Tis a wampus-cat. This from Berlin. A prehistoric specimen of the two-toed doodle- bug, suggested Fielding, absently. Nay, nay, Pauline, dinna jest wi' me. Nelson thrust his hands deep into his trouser pockets, but didn't move. Again, the feline howl. All eyes on at C Lx 35 Pfbmfgv il 3 X Z V Jr the double doorwayopposite, which opened into the hall, we waited for the disturbing element to appear. P'r'aps it's an Afghanistan poodle-pog eating cream-puffs in its native haunts, suggested Percy Mars, resuming his position before the piano. The sound of footsteps grew louder and louder and at last their author came into view. XVe all frowned. Fielding muttered, Rats! The newcomer was short and fat with yellow unbrushable hair, and twinkled two blue eyes at you through a pair of those shell-rimmed goggle specs. Nelson condensed our various and kindred im- pressions of this comic valentine, in one word. My eye I he offered, affecting stage British, Cupid ! Must be a 'sheep' who's wandering up here by mistake, said Berlin, grinning. I know all the upper elassmen and I'm sure I've never before had the misfortune to cast my bewitching, naughty optics on this abbreviated sample package of the young American idea. VVe were saved the trouble of inquiring, how- ever, for the kid-I don't believe he was over six- teen-switched his signals and headed directly for us. I smiled. Nelson was clever at extemporaneous deviltry. The poor freak kept coming, though, all unaware of the reception awaiting him, and when about half way in front of the platform, or stage which extends between the two hall doorways, opened his broadside of forty-two centimetre guns. VVhicha you bums has the Caruso voice? he queried vaguely, favoring each individually with his baby owl stare. Verily, the child was beginning well. Now I always did sing good. I remember that evening when Mr. and Mrs. Chalmers were at our house-Mrs. Chalmers sings in the choir of our church, you know-and my folks had me render Il Trovatore and Mr. Chalmers said then, that the original anvil chorus couldn't have had very much . QL.. tm.. on me. Not bad, eh? So I says to the cherub, I reckon you rnust mean me, and steps forward. Then wouldn't you just as soon sing, he asks gently, but pleasantly sarcastic, as make that noise? Fielding bristled. Referring, he inquires, to the melodious, tuneful, and otherwise delightful harmony recently caroled by this notorious-I mean noted, assemblage of twentieth-century troubadors which same, being us ? Correct, Hazel, answers Cupid. Sit down. Next boy-! Tarry a while, fair one, beseeches Tommv. I'Yhy the 'Hazel'? You talk like a nut. ' Haw, says Lud Nelson, still exceedingly Eng- lish, but ironical. Bally clevah, that! Eh? Beast- ly, what you s'y 'keenl' I s'y, old top, I take it you're of the lower classes, the fresh-er what you s'y 'sheepf George's iceberg delineation was de- licious. Il NYe1l, your Eye-ness, says the new boy, re- spectful, Don't take it too far. You might possibly have to bring it back. That sort of stunned us. I couldn't help grin- ning to see Nelsonls surprised look. He was a trifle peeved, too, I'n1 afraid. Listen here, Fat-3' Audrey Mars stood un once more, Fat yourself, interrupted the intended victim. You wouldn't have any shape at all if it wasn't for your Adanfs apple. Percy was slender, with- out a doubt. He sat down again. Cupid stared at us carefully, one at a time. 1 felt like laughing, but didn't. Nelson was mad, and the others weren't exactly exuberent. This cuss was of a breed peculiar to us, and new. VVe couldn't quite handle him. His wandering gaze fell upon Johnny Berlin, and halted. Then he walked up to Irish and peered intently, deliberately, at the L t Q5 'Mfct if J .ss the Igfe -- ,, fi . latter's cerise-and-yellow neektie. He Studied it- pondered a moment. 'Tm a detective, he announced. No? Oh, really, I s'y! P'r'haps you were ac- quainted with my friend of Charing Cross, Mr. Holmes-Sherlock Holmes. Eh? VVhat? Nelson had something up his sleeve other than his arm. I could tell by the way he talked. Quick, the brandy, Hobson ! I remarks. Yes, says Cupid, ignoring the Lud's question, I'm the original exponent of the gum shoe, Y'see this heel? I Catching hold of one corner of the piano, he balanced himself on one foot, and turning up the other like a horse in a blacksmith shop, pointed to the well-worn rear portion of it. Uh-huhf' Percy echoed the silent assent of the rest of us. VVcll, says Craig Kennedy, jr., I ran that down. It took quite a while for that one to sink in. Nelson said, iflelawl' and then pulled the one he had thought of. P'r'aps, he suggests, 'tyou can inform me what they call potatoes in Cleveland. lfh? XVhat? They don't call 'emf' says Little Nemo, They dig 'em. I s'y, you're wrong this time, chappief, Nelson was grinning broadly. They call ,em potatoes. Somehow or other, though, this sort of fell Hat. And what, asks Cupid, do they call chickens in Cincinnati? I don't know why he picked Cin- cinnati. Ile might just as well have said Covington or Lima. Ah, me friend, quotes the I.ud, you're as dense as the morning fog in that deah, native Lun- non. Chickens, I suppose theyld be termed-chick- ens. Aw-w-w, no! Nuh, nuh, notta tall. They d0n't call 'em. They--whistle--for 'emi Does it penetrate re-enforced concrete? They whistle for .r 'e1n, Whistle! Thuslyf' And puckeriug his babv mouth, the little varmint whistled. And say! That boy could whistle. Gee! He made a noise like rv sparrow, and a bob-white, and a canary, and wee, little chicks-you know, like they have out at Aunt lVlary's-and a lot of other little birds. That's when I first began to really like the queer cuss. Nelson was now having a hard time trying to keep from laughing. He did it, though. As l said before, gentlemen, proceeded the in- fant prodigy, I'm a defective-the word is detec- tive. His glance once more fastened upon Johnny Berlin's Broadway, New York-at-8 P. M. cravat. I can tell you, he said, looking Irish direct in the lamps, like one of those Hindoo medicine-men, l can tell you where you got that tie l johnny looked puzzled. For fear he wouldn't bite, I says, XN'hcre? I should have known bet ter than to do that. Around his neck, was the answer, of course. Ile smiled genially at the circle of half-hostile. half-friendly faces. That was a good one, wasn'l it? he says. D'ye know, old top, begins Nelson semi-wax like,' l've half a mind to tweak your blooniiu' beak? Cupid ignored the Lud. Things are in an aw- ful condition in Toledo, he says, but Columbus is in the same state! He evidently was having an unusually difficult time with us Nelson repeated. D'y know, he says, 'fl've half a mind- I Keep it a secret, my friend, interrupts the new boy, I would never have suspected it if you hadu't told me, I yelled. It was too good. Lemme introduce myself, I says, stepping for- ward again, D'Arcy Emery Irvin-also answers to the name of Spider, just at present I'm selling suspension bridges for the nose or violin. That's what makes me cross. I put out my hand cor- dially.

Late from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Came in on the H, Sz C. D., so it couldn't be helped-the being late, you know! Meets all comers at one hundred and thirty-three pounds, ringside, demanding only fifty-live per cent. of the movie rights, forty-sixty on the gate receipts, and a guarantee of thirty thousand bucks, one-third cash when the contract is signed. Gentlemen, Mr. Shan- ley! And bowing low, one hand in the air, grasp- ing his American History which he had been mak- ing up over in Miss Gordon's room, and the other on his stomach, the idiot salutes us, and coming up, extends a fat paw and I goes through the formality of shaking it. I introduces the others. VVhen I had finished, Cupid-he would never be Mortimer to us--thrust one hand in the inner pocket of his coat and drew forth an innocent-look- ing, little notebook. Do you fellows want to see something swell? he asks, opening it part way. VVe all crowded around. craning our necks. Nelson dropped the ultra-British. Fetch in the beaut-chus wictimf' he orders. facetious. Stick a sponge in water, says Cupid. return- ing the book where he got it. Away with 'im. vassalsf' H shouts the Lud, good-naturedly, Shall we toss 'im overboard or carve 'is nostrils out? And grasping hold of any available portion of Mortimer's plump anatomy, we five picked him up and carried him out in the hall and down the steps, the latter feat and the latter's feet threatening at any moment to cause the whole crowd of us to take a lengthy tumble. Depositing our burden at the front door, we gave him his cap and bade him fare- well. Olive oil, he sang back from the sidewalk. And so began my acquaintance with Cupid Shanley. The new Senior soon becainexxthe most popular ,J chap in the school. Ile was the funniest tad 1've ever seen, and always ready with a witty retort. The nearest anyone ever came to getting something on him, was when Lew Randolph one day offered him a cigar. No, thanks, says Shanley. In strict accord- ance with the advice of my physician, I smoke only a special brand which is built entirely from a de- licious weed grown on the private estate which ad-- joins my harem just outside the city of Constanti- nople. I import this delightful confcction at great cxpense, and solely for my own consumption. You have consumption? asks Lew, casual- like. The truth was, that Mortimer didn't smoke at all. If my language, he says, is too copious for your diminutive comprehension-- IIesitate the dictionary monologue, says Lew, but tell me, you like music, don't you ? Yeh, why ? Here, then, proceeds clever Randolph, pulling one off a cigar and handing it to Shanley, have a band. Bless you, my children, says Cupid. as he walks away, NVe became chums from the very first, Shanley and I. His living out in my part of town may have had something to do with it. And then I just natur- ally grew fond of the little nut. Almost everyone did. He was elected cheer-leader for the football and baseball teams, being tl1e direct cause, I truly believe, of many an opposing pitcher's throwing a game away to us. And the girls! Oh, my! No party was complete without Cupid. For that reason no two were ever held on the same night. And when he did get out with a crowd, the things he did and said, would make a stone dog wag its tail out of sheer glee. Gentlemanly, too! The beggar lcnew how to behave, alright. Dress him in one of those we-have-with-us-this-evening ,uniforms and un 4 . Q . jf, 5? n , , , l ll t at 'fe Il l X plant him at a three-fork feed, and he'd make just as big a hit with the elder folks as with our bunch. His language at times would give you the impres- sion that john Drew was jim Jeffries' sparring part- ner. Class? VVhee! But let me tell you about the time we became real pals. You know last year I had an awful case on Carrie Vernon. They used to write me up some- thing fierce in the Rambler, our school paper, and I even had a scrap with the editor, Binley Yale, about it, after a baseball game one day, out at Stewart held. NVe went behind the grandstand and held our debate a la john L. Sullivan and Brother Sylvest, I reckon Yale got out of wind pretty quick, or something maybe, 'cause he said, t'Hey, let's quit. I've had a plentyf' His right eye was commencing to get big and I had my lip cut a little. After that I wasn't bothered by free publicity for a couple of months, until, just for meanness he ran our pictures in the Married and Near-Married section of the year-book. It didn't leave a chance for a come-back. ' W You knew Carrie Vernon, didn't you? Almost as tall as I am, she was, and rather slender,,and pretty-say! She was a composite edition of Lillian Russell, Mona Lisa, Cleopatra and Annette Keller- man. That's the only way I can describe her, unless I'd tell you about her eyes, and the late Mr. XN'eb- ster hasn't left me enough words to do justice to them. And say! Did you ever hear her tickle the ivories? But surely you did. She used to play ev- ery once in a while at Lit. meeting-Tand play, too. Um-m-m, boy! None of that put-another-nickle-in' kind of music. Regular Miss Paderewski stuff. I said I had a case on her, didn't I? 'XVell-l did, but there was something sort of unusual about this case. I had never spoken to the girl. Honest! But one day I framed up something great, and needing but one assistant to manage it successfully, naturally I waylaid Cupid Shanley the first chance I got and imparted the glad tidings. Kewpie, I says, adopting the diminutive for the same reason as does Friend VVife a week or so before Easter and like festive occasions, Kewpie, I've an idea. Impossible,,' he says. I'm stunned. Even my extensive, elaborate, and exceedingly elastic imagin- ation will not admit- But I cut him off. Listen, you pie-faced sau- sage hendf' I says, and let a man talk. I'Ie looked around searchingly with a VVhere's the man P The boy was irrepressible. Lend me thy ears, thou lovely creature, I pleads, grasping one of those members and causing him to squeal. I left mine at home. You know Carrie Vernon, don't you? The optical fairy with the pianola instinct? Yeh, Leggo me ear, you big bumf' IVell, I says, releasing him, I want to get acquainted with her. 'lYou do? He grinned. I do, and I want your help. See F Iividently he both saw and thought I was Hn- ished speaking, simultaneously at the same time, as it were. XVell, it's done like this, he says. The next time you see her you go up to her and say, 'Ahl Miss Vernon, I believe F' She'll say, 'Yes,' and then you say, 'I'm sure I met you in Palm Beach last winter,' and she'll probably say, 'Nog I don't think so. I was never in Palm Beach,' and that's your cue to say off- hand like, 'Oh, don't let that worry you. Neither was I.' See? That'll cinch your argument and it'll be easy for you then. Take her to a vaudeville show or somewheres, if you want to. See? It's worked out all right for me many a time. There's no chance for a failure. They all fall for it. Now, for instance, you take that blond waitress who- Pardon me, I interrupts. 'Tm not theugovernorf' he maintains, but I'll X' X I - qczuass af 4 the fe MCMXV I ' 1' III ' X see what I can do you for-I mean, do for you. VVhat's the number? In the name of a Do-do bird, I implores, let me finish stating my premise. Proceed, he says, assuming a Napoleon-at-St. Helena attitude. You interest me strangelyf, It's this way, I says. Your method, though not exactly bad under certain circumstances, is rather, ah-primitive, as the prophet would say. Of course, a blond waitress might- Yes, yes, go on, he prompted, seenting sar- casm in my last remark. I did. You see, it would never do at all in this case. Ah! he says, a case? I understand. Moer- lein's, or Anheuser-Busch, may I ask? I glared at him and continued: I want to get a solid stand-in with this jane, I says. None of the rough stuff. And what's more, I've a line o' dope mapped out, which, if properly pulled oh' with your assistance, will enable me at the same time to make a hit with the lady-a two-bagger at least. See? 6'Do I look blind F he queried, vaeantly. Enter the willunf' Correct, I encourages. Go to the head of the class. I've developed my stunt from merely a little idea I got at the movies last night. Listen closely and hear the gentleman eating soup. This is Mon- day. Tomorrow evening there will be a meeting of the Senior Lit Society in the upper assembly. VVithout a doubt, Carrie Vernon will be there, and her chum, Virginia XYillard-you know, the plump, pretty girl she always runs around with and who goes with XVillie Vernon, her older brother? XVell, I happen to know that these two kids always go home the same way every time they come to Lit- and alone. The XVillard girl lives just down june street a ways, and Carrie only half a block or so further on. See? Now, tomorrow evening, you and I'll go to Lit as usual, and if theyiare there, why, when it's over, you hustle away and hide in that alley between State and IValnut streets. See? I'll wait and follow the girls at a short distance and just 'fore I get to where you are, I'll whistle like this. I whistled. Carrie will leave Virginia at her home, which is just this side of the alley, so when she comes along, you jump out and scare her. See? I'll run up then and weill have a fake fight. You'll break away and beat it down the street and wait for me at Morton's drug store on State street and I'll meet you there as soon as I can and set you up to any drink in the house. Now let's see how good a friend of mine you are. Cupid didn't say anything for a minute or so. He seemed to be turning the proposition over in his mind. Anv drink, I repeats. Then he put out his hand. life shook solemnly, without another word, and he turned to go. I guess he must have been half a square away when he looked back and stopped. 9pi-der! he yelled. IVhasat?,' I'd better leave my glasses home, hadn't I he asks. Certainly, I hollers back. Those tizz joints furnish their own glasses. XYell, the girls were there all right. So were Cupid and I. Carrie sure did play one wonderful solo that evening. Gee! They had some other stuff on the program, too, but it didn't amount to much. Percy Mars was president that year. Somebody read a paper on Birds and Their Songs. I wanted Shanley to whistle, but he wouldn't. Then Tommy Fielding and johnny Nelson debated against a couple of other guys on Universal Disarmament. gn I forget who won. Cupid said that Barnum Sz Bai- ley had the best show. A homely girl sang a song about love, and then they had some of those right- off-the-waflie-iron speeches. You know the kind I mean. Gh, gee! I never did get so iidgety waiting if . HER QE fe We 5 W , for anything to end, but it finally did, about half past nine, and folks started going home, I grabbed Cupid and says, Run now, you red lobster, and don't let 'em get by. Listen for the signal, and if you don't hear me whistle, you'll know that some one's comin' or something else is the matter. See ? He traveled faster'n I thought he could, scut- tling away like one of those underslung automobiles. I hung around, talking to Mars and some other bums, but with one- eye open for the girls. Then I saw 'em. They had just come out of the cloakroom and started down the hall. I got away from the fellows as soon as.I could and hustled down the opposite stairway, but hadn't quite reached the bot- tom when my shoestring broke. Of course, I had to stop and fix it. I saw Mr. Thompson, our principal, smile and speak as they went by him and passed out the front door. I must have given them a good two minutes' start, 'cause by the time I got outside, they were no where in sight. I knew Cupid was safe by this time, though. Then I ran. I met only one man and a couple of late youngsters as I sprinted down the street. Straight ahead, nearly a block away, I could see the indistinet forms of a couple of people just about in front of Virginia 'Willard'-s house. Tliere was no are light within half a square of them, but I was almost certain it must be they. Desiring to make some speed, and yet not attract their attention, I cut across the street. Then I saw some one go up on XYillard's front porch. I was certain, now, and whis- tled the signal. Cupid couldn't help hearing me. I saw Carrie start on, alone-nol There was some one with her-a man! I don't know where they picked him up. Wlieii leaving the school build- ing, perhaps. Darn that shoestring! But it was too late, now. Shanley, having heard my whistle, would be ready, good old scout that he was, to play his part in the little drama we had arranged. So I did the only thing. I rushed over Half way across the street I saw Cupid jump out from the alley and give a yell Then the fellow with Carrie made a wild lunge. lt was her brother! Shanley must have thought at first that it was me, for he clinched. It was dark, you know, and he didn't have his specs, so the poor little beggar couldn't see very well. I got there just soon enough to intercept with my ear, a punch aimed at Cupid's nose. II'hat we didn't do to XVillie Vernon, while try- ing to get away, would rattle in a peanut shell. XVe had to light him, for he'd surely have got one of us had we started to run. I finally managed to trip him, and Cupid, out in the gutter just then, grabbed a handful of dust from the street and threw it in his face. Then we gave a rapid and very correct imita- tion of a vision and disappeared. I felt sort of sorry for Carrie, but couldn't stop just then to ask her how she felt. We gradually slowed down to a walk and saw the drug store not far ahead. Were going to celebrate, old Ignatzf' I says, between gasps, for I found out tonight who was my friend. Cupid was too winded to talk, Perched on high stools in front of the marble fountain, however, some bubbling, succulent concoc- tion with ice cream in it before us, Shanley finally managed, taking long breaths now and then, XVhat in the dickens ever led you to sic me on a boiler- maker and then interfere with my gentle task of subduing his warlike spirit and hostile manifestations? I knew by the way Cupid talked that he was all right again. The only thing that either of us had lost was our breath, and also got a little dirty. Carrie's brother, lVillie, isn't a boiler-maker, I protested, as I beckoned to the manipulator of the little knobs and shiny handles, to give another order. Ile works on an ice wagonf' , Postscript: I saw in yesterdayls paper wher: Mr. and Mrs. Algernon Piedmont Vernon announce 1he marriage of their daughter Carrie to lvlortimer Ormonde Shanley, of New York city. XVell, lots of things can happen in ten years. Maybe I'll get my mthr-odtietioii, now. 1 rv., 0 'N 'i fiN K, f'7fia-Mr? wmj , M -If 1- .fx This if 5 'Q 1-hazy?

Q I -F' I iii i R CGACH OACH ERNEST HERRON - words cannot Iiigh School athletics. Last year we students were forced to content ourselves with tame express how much he has done for Lima interclass contests. School spirit was sadly lacking. This year Coach Herron has turned out squads in every sport that was mentioned along with the state champions, and school spirit is greatly improved. The whole school owes a vote of thanks to Coach Herron and to the Board of Iiducation for their generosity in bringing him to Lima High. His Fitness for the position of athletic coach is plainly shown by the part he has played in athletics throughout his life and the special training he has had. He was born in Missouri, 1889. but spent most of his school days at Crawfordsville, Ind. At that high school he received two letters each in baseball tpitcherj and football Ctacklej, but starred especially in basket- ball, winning three C's. He was generally selected as the best forward in his state and received two med- als from championship tournaments. I.ater at Xliabash College he was presented with a 'WV' for baseball, and also at Illinois Normal School, an NU for basketball. At each of these colleges he spent but a part of a year. In a little more than a year he won three I3's at lslrad- ley Polytechnic Institute. Part of his coaching train- ing was under Jones, of Illinois University, probably the best basketball and general coach in the country. VVith such a training and so much natural ability, it is no wonder that t'Rosy 'Ielerron is accomplishing such great things for Lima High School. No coach ever faced greater difficulties than Mr. Iflerron did at the beginning of the year. Athletics and school spirit were absolutely dead All the men who came out for the teams were practically green players, Hut Coach Herron developed a football squad that de- feated some of the best teams in the state. The basket- ball quintet collected a long string of victories from strong teams. Our baseball nine came through the season with one defeat marked up against it. Hard physical and brain work of the coach has put Lima on the athletic map. GEO. N. COE. l.INlz-Ll' NDR ALI, CIAMIQS.
