The Board returns to you. who have invested us with the responsibility and conferred upon 11s the honor, the completed volume. We present this book, a record of our defeats and victories, ambitions and realizations, since our entrance as Freshmen in 1904 -first to our Alumni, next to the Student Body and Faculty (to the latter owing the greatest debt), and lastly to our Classmates of 190$. May you all derive from reading it something which will interest you. The present Senior Class, while Juniors, conceived the plan of establishing an Annual: the first volume. ap| earing in 1908. to l c the work of our Class. It was planned that this should contain some notes of interest to all who have been. are. or will Ik. connected with this institution. W hether we have accomplished the desired end. we leave you to judge. The excellent instruction received in Knglish during our four years has been of inestimable value in this compilation. In the preparation of the lx ok. we received our first real backing from the College and Business interests here and elsewhere. After this support was given, we proceeded rapidly with the work of gathering, selecting, composing and the subject matter. Whatever editorial errors may lx observed in the perusal of this volume must be attributed to our lack of exix riencc rather than to any lack of care, persistent endeavor, or interest on our part. To do that which should add to the welfare and glory of our school has been our object in the compilation of this volume. 8 THE FACULTY B. PATTI SON MISS K. R. WARM I NOTON MR. J. S.

Siegfried THE SENIOR CLASS HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS, ’08 When this famous Class first entered the doors of Ashtabula High School, a new era began for that institution. It would take volumes to write the illustrious history of these “Forty Immortals. Space only allows us to relate their achievements in a most summarizing manner. Altho the Class had no sjiecial wonders in the athletic line, they certainly did show them when it came to intellect. In tlieir second year, they originated the Sophomore Annual Dance, which has since been considered one of the social events of the year. In the beginning of the Junior year a holiday was obtained, which the Class spent in the woods. Their oratorical contestant. Guilford Kingsbury, was elected by a large majority, and well he might Ik , for he carried off the first prize and gained the laurels for A. II. S. In the same year the dramatic ability of the Class was exhibited in the Washington Birthday entertainment, the proceeds of which liought several lK autiful pictures to adorn the school-room walls. They again showed entertaining powers in the Junior-Senior reception, which surpassed all previous ones. Their Senior year has lieen one succession of triumphs and successes. About the first thing they did was to substitute an artistic A. H. S. pin for the old and time-worn one. Their candidate, Walter Beck, defeated the Junior nominee for the oratorical contest, and if he fails to win it will not be his fault. This Class again displayed their histrionic talents by the remarkable presentation of the play “All on Account of Professor.” Many of the best critics pronounced it far sujjcrior to any college theatricals. But perhaps the most remarkable stunt accomplished by this most remarkable Class was to found an “Annual, the need of which had long liecn felt in A. 11. S. May the Class of ’08 ever Ik remembered with honor, as inaugurating this publication, and may this volume Ik but the first of many to be issued in the following years.

Tho their hojies have often lieen cast down, yet they always come up again doubly strong in some other part. Their first appearance was in basket ball, 11M 7. Alt ho as stated before the Juniors administered a defeat to them, they retaliated later in the season, and also fussed up the Seniors. In the late spring of 11 07 their spirits rose to a point where it was absolutely necessary to do something. Consequently the young men of the Class played hookey after being refused a legal holiday by the Sufxrintendcnt. Those boys were certainly pretty swift, and put Krnic Johnson up to present a bouquet of selected wild flowers which they had picked. Poor Ernie! The faculty didn’t appreciate the joke, and the Sophs did IHMiances of an hour each night for the next two weeks, and were promised a double dose next time. This terrible retribution on the part of the faculty sent their ambitious spirit all to the bad. and they subsided, and were not heard from again until, as Juniors of 11 08, they appeared in red caps. Xuf sed. Space only prohibits 11s from telling more of such bright acts of this Class, which will surely prove a worthy successor to the Senior Class of 'ox.

They surely were an obstreperous bunch of babes. They had the astonishing audacity to l eat every Class basket ball team into which they happened to buck. Phis was bad—very bad—for whom? They were beaten by the Juniors, but thru the density of their intellects could not comprehend the fact. They played again. But alas! the Juniors, too occupied with other thoughts, allowed them to win. This was ten) much for the jnjor children. Their little heads weren’t strong enough to endure the glory. They actually thought they had done all that would Ik required in High School. I'ield Day gave them a chance to work off another tit of physical ambition. Their accomplishments, however, were not so marked in this direction. They closed an illustrious year by general and glorious flunks in exams, and Improving conclusively to themselves, as well as to others, that the physical side of their craniums quite overbalanced the mental. 1908 finds a bunch of half grown children in kilts and squeaky, glossy shoes; a hat tied awkwardly on their heads with rubber to hold by fastening under chin. They are now labeled Sophomores. They still reserve some of their childish ways and toys. And now their barbaric traits again burst forth. They send a denunciatory challenge to the Senior Class, styling the members of that Class as “cowards! villains! traitors!-- !----- !------! ! ! ! etc., if they refused to play hockey. The Seniors, older and wiser, disdain such evidence of childish imagery, destroying the absurd “letter of honor. We rejoice in the knowledge that the Seniors still live and thrive. The Sophs have, for a time, settled back into the calm routine of life to the tune of “Caesar, we love thee! , accompanied by I). M. Sceger on the Low Grade Line. They are now almost natural, and partially civilized. They wait until the passing of Raster. Now comes their social “debut in the Annual Class blow-out. They have a glorious future before them, and we only hope that they will make good before the close of their B-r-r-rilliant career. May they aspire to the deeds their predecessors have accomplished; and tho they fall short of such a standard, may they go on doing what they can in their own little ways, proving to the world that they have really lived in it. And so we leave them, developing their infantile characters into those of wee men and women. 19 u SOPHOMORE CLASS ROLL MABEL ANDERSON FORD BARKER MARGARET BEACH SUSIE BE1DLER FRARV BLAKESI.EE JOSEPH COOK BESS CARPENTER MABEL CHAPIN ARLENE CHAPMAN EDNA COOK HELEN CORBIN WARD DAVIS RAYMOND DAVIS ROBERT DUNBAR EMILY DUNN CHARLES G1MINI HAROLD GILL FLORENCE GRANT HARRY IIEBARD MARGARET HEBARD ALDEN HOPKINS SEYMOUR HUBBARD VERA HENDRICKS BERNICE HAWKS CAMILLE KORNFELD EDNA LATIMER LAURA LEAPHEART LOUISE LONG ARTHUR LARSON-VIOLET LOCKWOOD MARY MADDEN ROBERT M« DOWELL EDWARD MILLS FISK MORRIS KATHERINE Mi INTYRE MARION MILLS WILLIAM PARKER CEDRIC PERRY HARRY PHELPS CARRIE PARKER NORMA POMEROY ASAHEL PRENTICE RUSSEL ROBINSON NEIL ROGERS KATHERINE REED BLANCHE ROBINSON VERNON SILL CLATK SILVIEUS HORTON SILVIEUS DEAN STANTON ALVIN SWEDENBORG KATHERINE SAVAGE CELINDA SHELDON PAUL SAVAGE WILL ST EVEN SON-PEARL SEYMOUR MARY SHOWMAN-BUTLER TERREL CLARA TARBELL JULIAN VAN DEBERGF.

Xow in the year of our Ijord nineteen hundred and seven, in this year entered the Freshman Class. 2. And l efore them goeth the class of nineteen hundred and eleven, the class of rowdies, and following them will come the class of nineteen hundred and thirteen. :i. And they were large and mighty and they numbered one hundred and thirteen less ten and five. And one-third of the host were men. and two-thirds were women. 4. Then on September the fifteenth this class entered the land of the Schoolites and Bookians, and their bones waxed exceeding cold within them and they were sore afraid. And when the buzzer buzzed they were sore perplexed for they knew not whither to go. ►. I ut the Good Shepherd, Kurtz, did have compassion on them and did go out on the stairways and hallways, and did gather in the lost lamhs. 7. And now at length, it was come Halloween and this people did assemble, and had much feasting and revelry. And. behold, they sat up far into the night, even unto eleven and twelve o’clock. X. And now they had prosj ered and had gained much learning, both in bookkeeping and in the language of the Ancients. ! . Rut lo, the teachers did conspire against them, and there was a mighty examination, and many were destroyed. 10. And now is the Spring Vacation over, and this Freshman Class has returned and they have come in the same numl)ers as they were in the beginning. 11. And from this time henceforward they are resolved to do better that they may live long in the land which the I'acuity, their master, hath given them. Advertise in tiie “Lakota.” It pays. Wanted—A box of chocolates, almonds preferred. Address. Die Deutsche I jehrerin. Wanted—An encore by the Girl's chorus. Wanted—To know how long a goose can stand on one leg. Miss E. R. Warmington.

AMERICAN INITIATIVE ()f the many prominent men of affairs in the I'nitcd Sjates today, one of the most interesting is Judge Peter S. Grosscup. of Chicago. 11 is interpretation of the law notably in the Chicago Strike and the Beef-Trust Injunctions—and his grasp of American problems have won for him the confidence of the people. In discussing corj orations. Judge Grosscup said: The proprietorship of the private projK rty of the country by the bulk of the | cople is radically narrowing. Corporate dominion comprises now nearly one-half the wealth of the I’nited States.” Today twelve million men are laboring for the corporations and supporting, by the income gained, twenty-four millions of dependents. Moreover, in 1900 an inventory of agricultural interests from Maine to California showed eighteen billions of dollars, while the capital invested in corporations was twenty-two billions. These statistics prove that cor| orate dominion is rapidly over-shadowing private ownership. But private ownership is the rock on which Republican America rests. It is individual enterprise that has made her men and women strong to build and to sustain a mighty nation. The colonists were men of exceptional bravery who were willing to leave a country where they had no chance and make the opjx r-tunity they wanted. They found this country a wilderness. Boundless forests must lx.' felled, great marshes drained, ami the soil, which had never been broken, must l c tilled. They caught their own fish and hunted their own game. While the men labored to establish their homes, the women too were toiling. Theirs was a noble lalx r. Each day found those loyal women going earnestly about their household work. Spinning wheel and loom were ever busy making the cloth which was to protect them from the cutting wind and burning sun. This economic independence reacted on the natures of men and women and evolved that mixture of keenness and ability and energy, aggressiveness and independence which is known as American character. The idea of each man, in so far as possible, doing for himself has found expression in our local government, our bills of rights, our representative system, and in the Monroe Doctrine, which is a declaration of the individual ability of our continent to take care of itself. It was our ability to supjx rt ourselves that won for us in the Revolution and made the North victorious in the Civil War. The same idea of the responsibility of man created the self-determination with which the colonists wrested from France every foot of her magnificent possessions on this continent. In the French colonies a man could not build his own house or reap his own grain without the permission and supervision of prefects. No public meetings of any kind were | ermiitcd. As a result, French dominion in America was annihilated. The French were overthrown by the self-governing colonists of England. John Fiskc says. The town meeting pitted against bureaucracy was like a Titan overthrowing a cripple.” 24 The real secret, then, of this marvelous American activity is not greed nor thought of gain but the spirit of initiative which the pioneers of our country bequeathed to their sons and daughters. Is it worth while to foster, to preserve this spirit, or shall it he allowed to die out. smothered by the power of capital and corporation? Individual proprietorship was once the day-star of every American boy. The farmer's son looked anxiously forward to the time when he should | ossess a farm of his own; the artisan owned his small shop, and his apprentice toiled hard for little or no money, hut with the joyful expectation of sometime being himself the master. Then every clerk behind the counter or at the desk was eagerly awaiting the moment when he might be the proprietor of an establishment of his own. That day has gone, and with it has gone the best hope of the American boy, that of an individual career. The corporations own half of the country. The trust has untold power. It can, at will, force any business to sell out at its own terms. Should one dare to refuse, it would Ik- swept out of existence. Even the farmers, the most independ-ent class of ] cople in the United States, are compelled to accept the dictation of the trust. Figures show that in recent years individual enterprises have become fewer and fewer, and the number of men in the service of the corporations greater and greater. Skilled labor forms only the more intricate parts of the mechanical network. Conditions are threatening; a great problem is to Ik.- solved. 'Flic American people arc not asking that corjiorations shall Ik- done away with or that competition shall cease; but they are asking that the country's corjxjration |K licy be reformed, that the government, by a national commission or by direct legislation, shall exercise a real power over these vast business interests, and that every man shall have the op| ortunity to share in the fruits of his own toil. Unless this is done there is no other |K ssibility but that Americans shall become a race of dependents. I hojK , not merely for my own sake because I am young, not alone for the sake of the many thousands of American lx ys who are facing the future with me, but for the sake of our country. America, that you and I shall not see the day when individual hope and prospect shall Ik numlx-red among the memories of the past; when the young man who starts in life jxx r shall see before him no independence, but only years of servitude stretching on to the grave. May our country grow in knowledge and in power, but may she be spared the time when, oppressed by the grandeur of factories which supply the world, cloyed with the beauty of public halls and rulers’ palaces, her people shall l x� k back with longing eyes upon the farms and the little shops and stores of their forefathers which gave every man a chance. When the rulers of the United States, amid dangers and temptations, are seeking to curb the jxmers of boundless wealth, may they remember that in their hands lies the spirit of American Independence.

BASKET BALL Owing to the lack of a gymnasium, the girls arc forced to play basket ball on the campus. At the time of publication Captain Louise I-ong is working hard with her team, preparing for the opening game, which will probably lx: with Harbor High School. There is a fine rivalry l etween the girls’ basket ball teams of these two schools, altho Harlxir has yet to win its first game from A. II S.

The courts were doctored up and improved until it became nccccsary to purchase new nets to keep up with improvements. The nets were procured and a supply of balls; these last soon disappeared. The preliminary battles were fought and finally the great tournament came off. The dope was in favor of the Sophs, and the surprise was great when the Juniors won. The Spring tournament promises to lx even more interesting than that of the Fall, and only the modesty of the Board prevents it from doping out the result. : 0 GIRLS' BASKET BALL TEAM AN AUTHORITY I le was not what one would term scaman-Iike in appearance, as he paced nervously hack and forth across the quarter-deck. There was something in his appearance which forced the observer, unknowingly, to associate him with the tall stool and ledger, and rightly, too; for, before his uncle, the controlling owner of the line had given him the Lucerne to sail, he had been employed in the office of the firm. At times he would stop upon his monotonous beat and fall to cursing and railing against Fate; Fate being personified in old ( apt. Briny. For his mind wandered back to the terrible moment when that sturdy old product of the seven seas had told him that, much as he disliked him and his kind, he would consent to accept him as a son-in-law u| on condition that he prove himself a man and a provider. The first you must do by getting master's pa| crs and taking a ship out of the harbor from the quarter-deck; and the second by laying aside at least five thousand dollars, roared the captain, laughing long and loudly at the young man's expense; for it did. indeed, seem rather ludicrous to think of the young bookkeeper in the position of commander of a ship. As he thought of this, the young skipper congratulated himself upon the fact that he had at least accomplished what scented impossible to the old sea-dog. for, by a year’s diligent study of all forms of lxx k navigation, he had obtained his master's license, altho he owed his success chiefly to the influence exerted by his uncle. But when he remembered the five thousand which had to lx. acquired, he fell into his former mood and hcajx-d burning maledictions upon the head of his intended father-in-law. clenching his fists and gazing longingly ujx n his chief mate. Mr. W ilson, whose burly figure, as he leaned over the outboard rail, was sharply outlined against the pale, wind-driven sky. Mr. Wilson had. from the first, held aloof from the “counter-jumper, as he termed hijn. who had come aboard over the taff-rail instead of up through the hawse-pipe as lie and all other good sailor-men had. Xow as he watched the tall ships lx ing skillfully maneuvered out to sea. he would occasionally recognize and hail some old acquaintance among the smart figures upon bridge or quarter-deck, who gave their orders sharply and with precision, guiding their ships thru the crowded channel with remarkable accuracy, at which times he would turn and survey the figure on the Lucerne's quarter-deck, snorting contemptuously at the comparison. As one of the ships swung close by in tow of a harbor-tug, her mate, partially enveloped by the smoke from the tug. called from the fo’castle head. So long! Wilson! and added. I suppose you have been looking for John Deal? Fell into the wet last night; tanked, I guess ;J ut it's a cool five thousand for yours if you land him. N'ever heard of him advocatin’ the simple life, but it'll lx- sure a good deal to the man who gets him!” sang back Wilson, laughing at his own display of 33 humor. The master of the Lucerne started at the mention of “five thousand,” but he smiled sadly at the improbability of the body's being found. At that moment all thoughts of John Deal were driven from his mind, for his orders had arrived, and they read “Sail at once.” “Call the watch, Mr. Wilson!” he commanded, hesitatingly, for it sounded rather out of place that he should give orders to that oracle of seamanship. But Mr. Wilson seems to have been in a pleasant mood, for he was actually condescended to ol cv the order, and soon the sailors l egan to tumble out on deck, tousled and sleepy-eyed, angry at this sudden interruption of their slumber. On hearing these preparations, the second mate emerged from the cabin, where Ik- had l� een writing a letter home, probably deeming it his last; for. altho he had shown none of the aloofness of the mate to the captain, he had very little respect for “the old man's nautical abilities.” Though the captain was in favor of calling a tug which would take away from himself the resjxmsibility of getting out to sea. the mate objected strongly: for that old employee of the line knew only too well the storm clouds that hovered over frequent tug bills. So they decided to “heave her ahead until they could cast off on the jKirt tack, which would enable them to clear the piers and get out to sea. After heaving the vessel to the desired point, during which process the men had heaved to the chant of “Reuben Renzo Was Xo Sailor.” their chantie man supplementing the captain's name which happened to l e Alonzo, and which fitted into the song very nicely, much to the delight of the sailors and concealed pleasure of the mate, who now liegan to make sail. The captain made use of this respite given him bv diving below to interview his “Kpitome of Navigation.” Being afraid to trust to his memory, he took the Ijook on deck with him. for he did not intend to make any mistakes. He had to take the Lucerne out. and take her out he would, despite the fact that he would, in all probability. Ik- ridiculed by every man alioard. When he had arrived u|x n the quarter-deck, the mate had made the neces-sarv sail, and the ship was straining at her moorings, anxious to Ik out in the open sea. “All ready for sea. sir! Ixx med the mate's voice, threatening from the fo'c'stle head. The moment had arrived. “Let go! lie began, tremulously, looking up from the book he had been excitedly scanning, and as the lines were cast off and hauled aboard, he continued. “Set jib sheets and let her fall off! Hoist away on the fore tops’!, loose the fore-sail! Sharp up on the jx rt-braces! Port sheets flat aft! As the ship swung rapidly from the wind, he called, “Hard a-lcc!” to the man at the wheel. Then bringing the wheel up the other way she filled away on the port-tack. But at this moment the unexpected happened, for the wind, turning over the leaf of this book, he continued his instructions upon the following page, which had reference to the tactics employed in bringing a ship to anchor with the wind aft. Grabbing the megaphone, he sprang u| on the skylight of the cabin. “Let go the anchor and come down with the mizzen-top sail!” he yelled, frantically. 34 Before the mate had recovered from his surprise, a sailor had. sprung to the anchor, let go the ring-stopper, and the big anchor went plunging to the bottom, the length of chain running out rapidly, and swinging the ship into the wind. The spanker-boom, as it jibed, struck our hero on the head, sending him to grass upon the fresh green paint of the companion-way-scuttle. The wind, being strong, drove the vessel aback, dragging her anchor thru the mud: but soon the mates had taken in the canvas, and stopj)cd her. Then the first mate hurried aft to demand an explanation. He had expected many strange things to occur, but he had not. until now, been aware that he sailed under a lunatic. Before he got to the quarter-deck, however, a tug came along-side, with changed orders for the captain, who had recovered, and now extended a pike-l ole to receive them; when, to add to his bewilderment, that individual ran to the stern, and began stabbing and hooking at some object which he could not see. I’ve got him! he puffed. His hat blew into the water unnoticed. He’s mine! I've got him! he gasj ed, breathlessly. “Got what? bellowed the mate, now thoroly sick of this gibbering idiot. “The five thousand and Mary! he chuckled gleefully, and as all hands crowded aft, in the l oilmg current of the tug’s pro-jH-ller they beheld the original John Deal, securely gaffed. That afternoon as the Lucerne slipj ed easily along under a taut bow-line, her master sat in the cabin, joyfully counting the days before lie would be able to return and claim the five thousand and Mary. As his eyes wandered to the book ujx n the chart-table, he pickled it up lovingly. “Well, old pal, he said, “I guess I must have read a little between the lines this morning, but you certainly arc an authority; an authority on Ways and Means.

To a large ami enthusiastic audience the toys of the Junior Class of 07 impersonated the different patriots who composed the hirst Continental Congress, while the girls gave a pink tea in colonial style. The President of the Congress, John I lancock, would have applauded loudly could he have seen the able representation of his famous self by John Stevenson. Samuel Adams and John Adams, cousins of fame in Revolutionary days, were well ]x rtrayed as sincere patriots in the Cause, by Don Morton and Clarence Weisell, respectively. The sjjcech of Patrick Henry was full of fire, as given by Guilford Kingsbury. Clayton Perry, as Charles Thompson, Secretary of the Congress, acted the part well. Tracy Wright, in the character of Pcnjamin h'ranklin, uttered words characteristic of the sturdy old patriot. William Paca and William Penn, both firm believers in the principle of independence for their country, now revived by the impersonations, respectively, of Walter Peck and Thomas Madden, were received with all the rest, as true portrayals of their respective personalities. Others in the cast, having less important parts, but whose standard of acting fully equalled that of any of the more historically-important characters, carried off high honors. They were: Prank I.ose, Ixo Moriartv, Thomas Shea. The second part of the program, given bv the girls of the Class, represented a Colonial Tea at Mt. Vernon. Anecdotes of Revolutionary Days, stories of battle, etc., as related by the characters, were of interest to all. The list of those having a part is on the opposite page. Perhaps the most important part was that of Martha Washington, and Irene Siegfried certainly showed her ability in acting by her interpretation of the part. The proceeds netted the Class atom seventy-five dollars. 36 Entertainment Given by Junior Class 08 M usii High School Orchestra PART FIRST.

Prof. Mark M. Close, Principal of the Lacteal Institute, discovers a route, through the midst of the earth, to China. Ilis pupils decide to precede their instructor in making the trip to the Orient, planning to perform the journey in the afternoon, as he did not intend to depart until the evening of the first day of the play. The second act is laid in the garden of McWang. Chief Mogul of the Sub-Province of Elsewhere, China. News reaches the ruler that, because of his refusal to marry one Xakoda (.who has a brother in high office in the government), Ik must be beheaded for the high misdemeanor. By the terms of the indictment, however. McWang is not specifically designated as the victim of the executioner’s ax. Finally, O’Tang. servant of the Mogul, is chosen as the substitute for McWang at the execution. The third act discovers the pupils, who have reached China, in prison. They had arrived at the commissary department of the Imperial Palace, and, l eing discovered, were arrested and thrown into chains. McWang enters, telling them of the execution, and bidding them prepare to see the death of the unhappy servant. They arc told that they will Ik set free after those exercises. The fourth and last act. in the palace of the Chief Mogul, is perhaps the most “thrilling. Some exercises, consisting of a vocal solo, a cornet solo, a vocal duet, and an essay in short ( ?) words are first in the act. O’Tang, the servant, docs not appear at the execution ground at the proj cr time and the Professor, who meanwhile has come to China, is led in as the “substitute for the substitute.” but. of course, is luckily saved by Xakoda. who wins him for her own. The play netted the class alxnit seventy dollars, ticket sales amounting to about three hundred dollars. OLIVER GOLDSMITH The sunset rays athwart a witulow-panc.

I ngton. ami Creston high schools was considered one of the annual events in the county. This year the meet, which was to Ik held at Creston, was anticipated with more than usual expectancy. The interest centered about the introduction of a new event, a four mile cross country run. It was in this that Creston hoped to make good for Sam Clayton, their track captain, was considered a star runner. Will Langford and Nick Preston had proved themselves well. bred Colwell, however, was almost a stranger, this being his first year at Creston. He had shown himself very awkward in any athletic feat he had striven to accomplish, and owed his |� ositiun on the cross country team rather to the trainer, who thot he had good stuff in him. than to any popularity with the fellows. The eventful day proved a fine one. clear and briskly cool. The meet was to begin at 9.00 A. M. and l.ast until noon; then from 1.00 to the close. The long distance was the last event. The stands about the big athletic field were well filled with spectators. The time for the great race had arrived. Creston was des|K-rate. The score stood a tie between Langton and them. Clayton had turned his ankle and was out. It all deluded on two untried men. Langford and Preston. They had forgotten Colwell, and when he trotted awkwardly out on the track, a groan of dismay and derision went up. Put the race had to go. and the other schools were not sorrowing any over the loss of Clayton; in fact, they considered their prospects brighter. They lined for the start, the signal was given, and they were off. No need of a pistol in that longer, slower race. The course led away from the school, keeping to the highway for a time. The twelve runners jogged along together for alxmt half a mile, then the trail suddenly took to the woods and across fields, involving fences and much bad going on the way. This new state of affairs had for a time separated the men, but they soon closed up and kept well together for the next mile without any signs of exhaustion. Colwell, who had lx en running in a sort of unthinking haze, began to wake up and look around a bit. As he did so. his eye fell on Preston. That youth was holding his hand to his side and beginning to gasp. Tired?” Ik called. ’ Ml—in!” came the stammering answer and Preston, struggling gamely. Ix-gan to fall back until he was a hundred yards liehind. Then he stopped and threw himself on the ground. The race was over for him. Soon others lx gan to fall back. Colwell was astonished. Men were falling out socpiickly? Why, he felt as fresh as ever! O11 they jogged, over plowed fields, thru wood, over fences, taking them at a leap, climbing, falling, any way to get over. Still Colwell ran with long, easy strides which partly concealed the awkwardness of his gait.—or was he losing it altogether? Impossible! file trail was describing an arc to terminate in another highway, leading back to the start, where they were to take the half-mile track in full view of the crowd and end at the starting line. There were only five running now. and even Colwell felt the strain. As they turned toward the highway, which meant the home stretch, he took another inventory. He saw Langford, with compressed lips and clenched fists, sticking 40 doggedly to it. Rut lie could see that he was on the verge of giving out. Two of tin- others were only just keeping up. hut one of them seemed good for a long way yet. They struck the road. Colwell leading or thinking he was. He was beginning to think he might really beat. Heretofore he hadn't thot of such a thing. Rut. why not? If he only could! It meant everything that good fellowship means to a boy. popularity, praise, friends. And only a mile left to run. Yes, he was, good for the deed. Rut joy gave way to something like despair. Me had forgotten one boy and that very boy was the one he must beat. He realized it iti a second. He also thot of something else forgotten, that the fellow held a long distance individual championship. ( ne glance at his face revealed determination. Rut with that glance, determination settled in the face of his opponent. ColweU was preparing to run as he never ran Ik fore. Another runner gave out. Then Langford began to stagger. Real him. Colwell! he blurted out. and then stop|x d. Rut if Colwell heard he gave no heed. 'Tve got to win! I've got to win!” kept dinning in his mind. He and his opponent were still running abreast. Rut suddenly the other man slipped ahead, and Colwell, as he fell into stride, began to realize that it was no easy task. Still he was keeping up without the use of any reserved strength. They were nearing the gate to the track now. and yet their relative places remained the same. The third man. however, was dropping farther and farther behind. At last they swept thru the gate into the track for the last half-mile. There was an undefinable roar from the crowd. Creston went wild in their delight when they saw the entire lack of awkwardness in the splendid stride of their man. Again and again “Colwell! Colwell! boomed forth in a locomotive yell that was deafening. You have him! Keep it up! Colwell! Oh. Colwell! greeted his cars. The man ahead was running with a reputation, and Colwell was running for a reputation, but above all for Creston, his school. The other man was from Langton. and cheers from that quarter were as deafening as from the Creston side. Rut Colwell forgot the cheers, forgot everything but the joy of running. All signs of exhaustion seemed to leave him. He threw all his strength into that race and ran. Past the quarter mark, soon abreast his opponent, now past and running free. And what running! Past the three-eighths and down the home stretch. His running was spectacular, unparalleled by anything ever seen in that country. He breasted the tape at a speed almost equal to the ordinary one mile rate. If Creston went wild before, the excitement now was indescribable. Pandemonium reigned. Colwell's popularity was established in Creston high, school once and forever by that remarkable run. 41 A DELIGHTFUL OCCASION ( Vpologics to Longfellow’s “The Bridge. ) I stood on the street that evening As the cops were snoring the hour. And the moon rose o’er the city Behind the City Hall tower. I saw her bright reflection On a glimmering gay placard. And the card said: “Come to Morrison’s. Freshman, Even tho the times ‘do l c hard And far away, in a trance. On that lovely winter night. The Junior town-crier was calling Comr Ye to the Junior Ponce.” Upon the long hlack rafters. The glimmering hall-lights play: And the myrtle there hung from the ceiling Has lasted for many a day. The room in its silence is deathly— Too dull for this High School jay: And the ticket-man waits for the tickets Which, when sold, will for this dance pay. As sweeping and eddying thru them, Down the halls the shy Freshie goes. Likewise the sighs of 12. Sherman Come drifting so still “Oh! who knows?’’ How often, oh how often. In the parties of other dates. The crowds had come flocking to enter in the days of the daisies—“’OS's. How often, oh how often. Entertainments in other days. By the Juniors—but minus arrivals. Have brought forth but dismal lays. Now there comes the sign of a tumult On the stairs in darkness below. And the Juniors’ Reception Committee Wakes up -some arrivals, they know. But what their excitement on seeing In place of a visitor bent On an evening’s amusement—the landlord— And they hadn’t a single red cent. The president sees the procession. Still passing to and fro Of those at the last J. Reception. In the days of long ago. His purse-strings are twisted and soiled. And he groans as he hauls them out. !i he pays now—his pain-racked head Tells him—he’ll ne’er live to die out. So he calls to the box-office—“Glennv! We must mortgage our lives! O Gee! And I promised to pay for this back-comb In niv pomp—one Winnie lent me. Now they promise to pay on sight, truly. All their earnings they possibly could. And the landlord departs. They act mutcy And set to work chopping hard wood. And forever and forever. As long as their papas know. Their white hands must keep at work shov’ling The beautiful, dirty white (?) snow. The party-broken anticipation And its shadows shall appear As the symbol of luck to the plucky. Let us shed at its poor grave a tear. Walter E. Peck, ’08. THE BIBLE SAYS Mark 14:36—Let this man pass.

After organizing, music was procured and regular rehearsals were held each week. At the various high school entertainments they have furnished the music.

Since then the distinctive feature of nearly every school entertainment has been the music furnished by her pupils. This year, the High School Chorus is comj osed of about fifty voices, there being for the first time sufficient bassos and tenors to balance the chorus. They study classical music almost exclusively, and the pleasing manner in which they render it is a great credit to the High School. 43 cA. H S.

In A CHRISTMAS SURPRISE On a street, in the city of Chicago, near the Pendleton Rag Factory, was tlie house where lived the family of Joseph Wieniawski. It was rather a dilapidated-looking wooden structure of one story and a half in which the six children were reared. A broken down picket-fence surrounded the yard, from which green grass had for many years l een absent. The father, Joseph Wieniawski. was a hard working man, yet most of his wages went to a saloon, kept by a friend, around the corner. He usually came home drunk, and vented his anger on the children. His wife, Mary Wieniawski. was one of those easy-going women who always let the children look after their own affairs. The only ambitious member of the family was the oldest daughter. Sadie. The youngest of the Wieniawski family was a baby of one. while the rest of the children ranged in ages up to ten. One of the children was a bov of three years, who had ln-cn lame since infancy. This brother had always Sadie’s first thought and attention. One day, while wandering aimlessly down the side streets of the city, she happened to turn into one of the numerous small alleys which arc lined on both sides bv the rear entrances of stores and tenements. The decorations of these back yards were lx . cs of all sizes and descriptions, the monotony of which was relieved now and then by a rubbish heap. As Sadie approached the middle of the alley she saw the rickety old wagon and the bony horse of the rubbish man. standing in front of the ding) looking tenements. The rubbish man had just returned to his wagon with a basketful of stock in trade, and as lie was walking along something fell from the basket. Sadie’s sharp eyes were not long in discovering what it was. With catlike movements she sprang forward, seized the toy, and with remarkable swiftness ran down the alley, turned the corner and was lost from view. Once away from the alley and out of the reach of the rubbish man, she stopped breathlessly to examine the object more closely. It proved to l e a little white lamb; that is, one which was white when first purchased, hut now was more of a grayish black in color. Sadie's heart lx at swiftly with joy, and then all of a sudden a bright idea flashed into her mind. Yes, she would do it directly, and she would keep the secret and tell no one until Christmas morning. In all the years of the little Wicniawskis’ lives none hut Sadie of them had known the joys of Christmas. This was on an ocean liner many years before when her father and mother were immigrating to America. On Christmas day the children of the steerage had a Christmas tree, and Sadie had received a doll, with a bag of candy and an orange. Now she walked rapidly down the streets until she reached her own, then cautiously looking around to sec that no one was watching, she ran swiftly to her own back yard, dug a hole in tlie ground, and buried the toy lamb, covering it with dirt and boards. Then she hurried across the street to play with the neighbors’ children. Early Christmas morning Sadie Wieniawski crept silently from the house for the toy, which was still safely waiting in its secret hiding place. She knew her little brother wotdd Ik pleased when she wakened him and thrust the lamb into his arms. The little fellow when first aroused from his slumber looked startled and then wept for joy at this unexpected treasure, holding the little lamb close to his heart. 46 Abby Bradley, ’08. During the past year many social times have been enjoyed by the pupils of A. H. S. Dancing is the chief feature at these parties, which were originated by the class of 08, when they gave their Sophomore hop. Since then, each Sophomore class has given a dance. More parties were given during the last year than ever before. These have all proved successes socially, altho not all financially. However, the dancers all bring extra pocket-money, and if it is necessary, the hat is passed around. On Hallowe’en all the classes assembled and amused themselves until long past the ghostly hour. The Freshmen held a party in Morrison’s Hall, and everyone reported a fine time. The Sophomores spent the evening “tripping the light fantastic toe. A real Hallowe’en party with all the “fixings was enjoyed bv the Juniors at Vera Hrawley’s home on the East Side, liy some mistake they missed the car and were obliged to find their way home thru the country roads by the light of the moon. At the kind invitation of the Kingsville Seniors, the A. H. S. Seniors hired a band wagon and proceeded to Homer Porter’s home in Sheffield. The Kingsville | eoplc entertained tlifcm royally, and it was not until after four o’clock A. M. that the Seniors returned home. It is needless to say that they were a sleepy bunch the next day. and as one teacher said, he was obliged to serve as an alarm clock l eforc he could get anyone to recite. For many years it has been the custom for the Junior Class to entertain the Seniors. Perhaps, the most elaborate one was given last year on May the third by the Junior Class, '08. Haskell's Hall was appropriately decorated in the class colors and cut flowers. The music was furnished by Anstead's Orchestra until a late hour. Novel-guessing contests furnished entertainment in addition to the dancing. At about midnight dainty refreshments were served in the adjoining rooms which were artistically decorated. The affair was an entire success. This year the Junior-Senior Reception is to Ik held on May the eighth. Last year the Junior Sings were very popular. The Class held them at the different homes with the avowed pur| ose of singing, but such was not always the case. In short, it is enough to say that the different classes are all sociable and manage to have their good times in one way or another. May these social times continue and may the classes ever mingle harmoniously. 47 RULES FOR CHEMICAL ANI) PHYSICAL LABORATORIES I. Be it hereby known that pupils in passing to and from the laboratories arc requested to talk animatedly with their neighbors. Be careful that the talking is not above a shout. II. In the recitations the pupils should frequently grate their chairs on the floor, as this makes it more exciting and the pupils are less likely to fall in a doze. III. Do not wipe your hands on the towel, as this is the only one that will be furnished during the year. IV. Do not neglect to break the apparatus. An excellent way for putting it out of commission is by dropping it on the tloor and stepping on it. V. Whenever the door is opened between the Physical and Chemical Departments, be sure to greet your friends on the other side. This is no more than etiquette requires. VI. If the instructor begins to-think himself of some importance, immediately chuck him in one of the cupboards until he repents. X. B.—These rules arc to lx strictly enforced. Anyone violating them is in danger of being reported.

ALUMNI Through the medium of this Annual, perhaps, the first direct appeal is made for an Alumni Association. W e, the members of the Class of 11108, who arc soon to pass out of the doors of the High School in Ashtabula, as students, for the last time, are especially desirous that. Ik fore our members have been scattered to the four winds and before we disband, there should Ik such an Association in this High School. The good fellowship and classmate spirit, which is fostered and cherished carefully as one of the prime objects of such a union, should Ik argument enough of itself to convince the Alumni—who now number over 500— that such an organization is badly needed. We arc not quite the last school in the grand old State of Ohio to take up this matter; for there arc still a few High Schools in villages of oik hundred l opulation. where there are no Alumni Associations, I banquets. Reunions, etc., which mean so much to those who have left the public school life for a business, or other useful, career. The list of those whose names are inscribed in the Hall of Fame of our High School are given herewith. Its length is sufficient proof of the certain need of an ALUMNI ASSOCIATION for our A. II. S.

Of life’s bright, or cloudy, day. And the world has no attraction. With its good or addle way; When a love for things immortal Steals across the wrinkled brow. When it calls upon the memory For the soul to follow now. And your thoughts, they come more slowly: Yes the head it slowly bows, And all the prime has left you withered, All the future turned to past. May you ne’er regret your living. As your heart doth beat its last. —Carlysle H. Holcomb,’10. 66 «� , %h Btalo 'ft f ruuMSht «l htv, Of ih itramst uaHoaM of things tfcat «♦▼« MQ npllsfc«4; Ou« 4t«6ft heard oa ovorjr sld« OUR JDS We wish you would patronize our advertisers.

To do this she should have both time and health. Nothing helps to shorten the time needed for house work like the use of gas for both cooking and heating—it is always ready for use and no time is lost kindling fires or carrying coal or ashes. Better health is assured because the labor is reduced to a minimum and is performed under better conditions. The well educated woman realizes this and always cooks with gas.
