SENIOR CLASS HISTORY liy EDNA SCOVILLE. 09 The year of 1909 ! Ho� Ions w© have waited for this year of year At la t It hag arrived, and wo. oven prouder than we expected to be. are ready to leave thin aeon© of many IriumpIiH Our history. beginning with the year 15 05 and ending with l?09. la a very good and Interesting one We all can remember that June inorninK when accompanied by Mr. Crate, wo marched from the IM-vision 81 root School to the a� cmbl room of the Ashtabula High School and received the seat assigned 08. How glad wo were to think wo would now be enrolled with the Student of that renowned Institution It I needless to tell of our capabilities as Freshmen, and of the teachers who looked upon us favorably. This year passed on wonderfully. and the first exams My ! how wo did surprise the faculty. The Rood tiroes In the assembly room nr never to be forgotten, especially when we were daily labored with concerning the amount of whispering among the Freshmen during the study hour . In the course of this year three of our member entered the matrimonial ranks September. 190$. found us enrolled ag the sedate Sophomores. We had all longed for the time when we should not longer Ik- called •• Freshle But we did not smile at the present Freshlea, Oh. no for we had decided to do unto other a we would have others do unto us. This year wo gave a great Sophomore Annnal at Haskell's Hall, to which all of our noble colleague were Invited. Rathualaa-tleally they responded to our Invitation The affair proved to be a grand success, ns nil of our undertaking have been. Wo thought, of course, that this party would b© followed by others In the coming years and that we bad set a good example But the next class did not follow our lend for several obvious reasons. The year 1909 came nround too soon. When we were Jolly Juniors. we entertained the class of 1908 they never before had been entertained. The Junior-Senior reception was one never to Ik- forgotten. Soon we wore to take our place as Seniors of A. H. 8. ami be held up as example to the lower classes. How we bad looked forward to this during our whole three years of High School training ! Hut now. having attained this noblo position. 1 am sure we feel little different except somewhat older and wiser than when we entered the ranks of A. H S. three years ago We could not abandon our position as Juniors without a second memorable event, so an excursion to (!©neva-on-lhe-l.ak© was planned Altho we had two breakdowns before we started, which is nothing unusual for tho class of 1999. we had a very enjoyable time. Surely we cannot forget our singing in chapel in our Junior year. It certainly was a credit to A. II. S. If anyone had visited our class during this period I am sure he would have run dismayed away. Now In this year of 1909. we are to leave the doors of A H. S. forever. How melancholy that word sounds! But we know iho class of 1910 will prove to be a Illustrious Seniors as we have been. Our Senior year ha been the most eventful one in our history. A Senior we started the publication of n High School paper known as The l art. which achievement we hop© will serve as a precodent for succeeding classes. We rank high In Theatricals and Athletics Our Senior play was so well appreciated that the manager of the theater wished u to repeat It. In tho Athletic line wo furnish the best of material Of the present basket ball team four of Its member are Seniors, and we also do more than our share for the track, football and has© twill teams. For the Oratorical contest our class furnished the candidate who was elected by an overwhelming majority over the Junior candidate. Every two weeks we have held Senior parties which were much enjoyed by the class In general. But further comment 1 useless, for “Actions speak louder than words. We are sure that the present Juniors will follow our footsteps. and will fill the place of Seniors a well and as capably aa the class of 1999 has done. SENIOR CLASS POEM Uv WILL R.

I followed her We walked thru the long, winding pathways of a gloomy forest, whose very air was permeated with mystery. After we reached what seemed to be the midst of the fores' Iris waved her wand over a huge oak ire , and lo! before my startled gaze, ihe trunk of the tree opened anil out stepped the proi� h.e ISS. She wore a long, black veil over her face, and a dusky, black mantle was thrown around her shoulders, making It Impossible to tell what she did look like, only she seemed very mysterious and aweinspiring I was so startled by the o|M-nlng of the tree that “Comae stet-ernnt.

Then the projdtetes commanded me to alt uprn the grass near her. “You would learn ihe future of the Senior class? she asked In a deep voice, which made my “youthful blood run cold.” I was too frightened to speak, at tlrst. but at length, as I gathered courage. I exclaimed In a faltering voice. Oh. prophetcaa. unroll the fates for me .and reveal the destinies of my classmates. Concentrate your mind now on some girl In your class whose future you wish to learn and I will begin. commanded the prophetess In a mere human sounding voice. Then I began to think with all my might “You are thinking of Ruth Hocrngen. the bright and shining star of your Virgil class. she declared Yes.” Then, after penderlag for a moment, she suW.

But. continued this mysterious person, she shall not carry out her determination, for on her arrival, she will find that the African youths and maidens know no! the language of li r beloved Virgil, and straightway she will begin to devote her life to teaching this neglected race “ Oh! poor creature , that you should be thus afflicted. said I Then I seemed to hear our old Virgil class cry. “Hew !

I should think the flames would light it up T Now. doesn't that indicate a philosophical mind Howard Shaylor shall become- a famous soloist ” This was. indeed, an astonishing announcement, for 1 remember that Howard wild lie couldn't sing In the chorus for our play, bocauso he oldn'i know how.

With cautious footstep ho approached tho dtis'.-pan. lifted It up. and wonderful to relate, saw the oddest looking creatures scurrying to and fro over the dust pan that he had over before set eye on. At length, a piping little voice cried out: Please. Mister. � e canto to to the High School from the eighth grade, we were looking after Mr Dietrich when you swept us Into your dust-pan. Whereupon, the Janitor carried his sweepings Into the oflic - and deposited them on Mr Dietrich desk Mr Dietrich at once recognized them as members of the Fresh-men class, and with the aid of Miss Case's microscope soon sopsrated the tired little beings front the particle of dust This task having teen completed, the creatures were placed in U� lr respective colls, t amely. Rooms II and 1.1 Many were the trials which these people endured during the first few weeks of their high school life. The Janitor was obliged to rift the- -lust which he swept up. for fear that some of the Freshmen might be- unintentionally destroyed. The Sophomores took great delight In tramping on these children, but the Seniors. (tc-nder-hc-nrt -d souls : i picked their way carefully thru the halls and not ono Freshman did they trample under foot.

H.

The seasons of 08 and 09 have, indeed, been a success. May the seasons which follow be as prosperous with their wider range of athletics. The Athletic Association has done much to encourage athletics in the way of improvements and also of giving letters' to participants in contests. Many other things point our way. and some have already made their appearance; for example, new athletic grounds, dressing room, shower bath, hurdles and jumping standards, the last two having been turned out by the Manual Training Department.

I’ve got to leave you here. I must do some errands now. The boys dlseusslng this momentous question were Ned Van l orn. -on of the most prominent minister of Hrownvllle. a thriving town In the Shenendoah Valley, and -Mac Hanover, whose father taught ancient history and sciences In Hrownvllle High School Mac had little trouble In getting thru examination ns he was naturally studious On the other hsnd. Ned was very fond of outdoor sports, especially baseball. lie was the athletic hero of the school and was so poplar that he had little time for study lie wss naturally bright and was rather Inclined to underestimate his ability and to be afraid, as that dread time approached, that he would not | ass the examinations After Mac left him. Ned walked slowly down the street. He pulled his esp down oxer his eye , put hi hands In hb� |� cke s. and walked along us If he were the most dejected of mortals. He never noticed that the late February air was laden with the perfume of the opening buds on the fruit trees He went thru his lessons that day In a sort of daie. but the next day the prospect changed. Mr. Douglas, the Principal of the school announced In chapel that the boys were required to pass these examinations In order to show people who were criticising that they did know something besides baseball lie farther said. Young men. It will be the privilege and pleasure of the School Hoard to present large, plain red letters to all the members of the team. The one who does the most to win these games shall be eajierlally honored by receiving a Inrge red letter of the Old English style. This news was gladly received by the baseball team, and the boys turned to their studies with additional xeal. For what boy la not proud of the large letter of his school or college placed conspicuously on hl� manly chest ? The days of the next week or two flew swiftly by. for everyone was busy pre| artng for exams. II. Hey. Ned ! Ned ! wait a minute !“ Ned turned around and saw Mac coming up behind him on the run.

By this time they were walking up the steps of the school building When they reached the door of the assembly room. Ned left Mac. He went up to the History recitation room expecting to Ret some help from Mr Hanover, but he was nol in the rcom A Ned sat watting his thoughts wandered. He seemed to see himself receiving that la rite B. and an Old Knglish one at that ! Just then a breeze eontltis: in thru the 0|wn window blew a | npor off from the desk Ned stooped to pick It up and he saw these words. Ancient History exam First Half, printed across the top of the type-written parte. Ned's eyes seem-d glu«-d to the p«i cr. He r«-ad ami re-read the questions until It seemed that they were almost burned Into his very Lrain Then In a mechanical way he pul the paper back on the desk, placed a took on It. so It wouldn't blow away Then he left the room That persistent torment, commonly called conscience began to question him. What If your father and mother knew, what would they think' If anyone found it out you would lie forever disgraced. It seemed to say. Then came the reply, But think ol your championship and the glcry ol the school. Tien he decided thul he did not care lor the glory cf his school and the championship If It must bo won by the destruction of his own character. However. Ned's bettor self a 11.mi was victorious, lie decided that the only right and manly Hi.UK to do was to confess to Mr. Hanover. AcccrdlDKiy. the day before the examination he started to school early In order that his determination might not be overcome by delay. He w.-nt directly to the teacher's rcont Ned did not give his apology in a smooth, fluent way. but In a broken, disconnected manner which revealed his sincerity. Good morning. Mr Hanover.' Why. icood-mornlng. Ned Rather early aren't you 7 Yes. I've come to own up I've done something terrible No. don't interrupt until I finish. Then be went on and told him all about picking up the paper and reading It. lie told him Ihnt he was very sorry that he read It and still more sorry that he didn't own up before. Ned. I am glad to hear this—not glad that you read the questions. which I already knew, but Already knew ! Why. how was that 7 New. I'll tell my part of It That morning I had just left the rcom when I heard some one coming, so I looked around and saw you enter. Then I thought of the questions which I left lying on toe desk. But I was wanted at the ’phone, so I hurried cn I had decided to make out a new list anyway as these were not quite satisfactory. When I cane hack Into the room, there was the examination taper, lying cn the desk held down by a Look tfo I thought you must have seen them.

Ned went to Ms studies with a lighter heart that day. He also felt a deep gratitude towards Mr. Hanover Bet a cent he didn't Intend to make a new list of questions lie Just said It to make me fed heller about it.” lie soliloquized. The next day was exaiji day ami Ned went to school f«elliig that he would and mist pass. He was busy all the morning with exam When he fnlshed at ot on. he rushed out of the building and shouted.

(601 FIRST PRIZE ORATION AT COUNTY ORATORICAL CONTEST IN 1908 The American Boy and His Country By WALTER HE Japnaene have Instituted a campaign for kno� 'l«dp H la going on right hero in our own state, and equally In almost every other state in the t'nlon At nearly every college in Ohio you will r.nd Japanese students, typical of their race, bright and eager and quick as a flash. Large numbers are at Harvard. Vale. Columbia and other eastern schools. In England. France, and Germany they are absorbing knowledge. not only cultural but commercial and Industrial ns wall. At first thought. Ibis plan for intellectual conquest strikes us as n curiosity a sort of Oriental freak a break neck race on the part of the Japanese to overtake the civilisation which paused them by so many years ago; a project akin to the gorgeous sentiment and Imagination of the East But the more one ponder It. the more one wonders If this strange and eager little people, who have made stieh wonderful time In overtaking their more advanced neighbors, have not grasped a fact whose Importance Is not always fully roc-ognlrcd In the I'nited States—here In the van of civilization; whether there is not a vital connection between the education of young men along proper line , and the welfare of their country. Discussion of educational problems brings forth regularly comments In our leading periodicals Our magazines overflow with such E. PECK. 08 articles as. Does a College Education Pay ?'. Is a College Education a Good Thing in Business? Since it is universally conceded that knowledge Is an Invaluable possession, and since tbe years s| ent in a boys education are seldom years that would result in the amassing of much capital. It follows that these articles would never have been written had it not been for the fact that so few petson realized what their education meant. Now, thcorltlcal education does not mean that a man can do anything. It really means that, if iwo young men start out at tho same time ai the foot of tbe ladder, the one brought up In tho school of experience, with no scholarly attainments, the other having a well-trained mind, the youth with an education will reach tho top sooner, and will do his work bolter, than tho uneducated man. It Is the |ieople who have thought that education entitled them to start in at the top of the Udder, who have raised all those questions. Education does not guarantee success to a young man. but It fits him to attain it through the full exertion of his natural abilitle . II la because so few of our students have turned aside from the crowd and have taken up a business in whatever their line happened to be. and because so many of them have worn their learning as h personal adornment, that we have had so few leader in science, so few great scholars. In short, usefulness, not personal glory; kindness and indulgence, and c-barity toward other , not u (61) FIRST PRIZE OR AT I ON—-concluded ceaseless effort to Impress them with oor importune , ire the tent of attainment. Itut how may a cultured youtiK min use hi education for tho welfare of bia country? Gifford Pinchot wa n graduate from Vale JtrIIItunt and Rifted, he had passed through the University with high honor hike all young men. he was ambitious to begin hi career in some line of activity. Paying clerkship awaited him in mercantile establishment — bunlnew houses of high rank needed Just such a man: but Gifford Pinchot had a higher aim. Turning hi back upon all this. he was off lo the Weal—off to the land of gold: but he did not go for the gold Instead, he struck out for that part of our country once blr� � ed with magnificent woodlands, now rapidly becoming mere slashed-off mockeries of their former beauty. Today, a the result of his Investigations and subsequent startling report of existing condition . Congress has set aside 1$S.-000.000 acre of forests as a national reserve to which common-sense lumbering methods are applied. Gifford Pinchot ha shown his love for his rountry. and that Is what It means to be a patriot. Then, all along this line of useful service can young American demonstrate their love for their country. Some. like the Wizard of the West, may develop a valuable product from a wort hie plant. Other , like Professor Mlchaclson. shall by chemical research give America a place in the sclcntlflc world Still other shall bring their trained Intelligence to bear upon our harvests. The Secretary of Agriculture. In hi last report, tell us that ten year ago a certain kind of wheat brought from Russia at a cost of IIO.OOO. was planted on a rainless tract of land Today the crop from this wheat U worth, annually, fliO.OOu.OOO. These achievements mark the truest patriotism Formerly, a In the day of chivalry, wo wen- taught that the highest earthly glory consisted la the performance of martial exploits Men wore thrilled by the recital of the deed of Alexander. Hannibal, and Caesar, and were spurred on (o like career . But the spirit of the Twentieth Century is opposed to all this. Napoleon Is no longer a great hero: he I a ruthless butcher The patriot of today is the man of peace. The United States still calls young men to the army and navy, but only In number needed for actual defence. Tin.- strength of :ho country shall not focus in the number of bivouacked host , but in It useful, creative citizens. So conic, young American . May the brilliance of gold never blind you to the good of your United States. She is looking to you now. and when passing year have hardened your success and trained your minds. In a little while, she will look to you alone. May your paths lie not toward battlefield , hut through Debts 111 led with the Dower and fruit of peaceful Industry, by grace and knowledge. May your hands bear the microscope, the geologist's hammer, the chemist's retort, and. If it must need bo. the SprlngDelil rifle. The fortunes of (he United State In camp of battle and In vales of peace rest in the palm of knowledge So come, young American . ( ) A TALE OF TWO SENIORS 8«. (Iiw Mood guard at the golden ante.

Mr. Dieterich’s Part in High School Affairs In reviewing' a successful year of school life, in every department of the school work, we would he doing: an injustice not to attribute a great deal of the success which we now have to our principal. Mr. Dictcrich. Indeed, in every phase of High School work.he has shown himself to be most loyal to the students, to the public and to the school itself. In athletics, the position which we have assumed has been, in most part, due to his efforts to rank A. II. S. higher than it has ranked heretofore. The associations with Mr. Dieterich during his first year at Ashtabula High School have been most pleasant ones, and in concluding, we can only congratulate him on his successful effort to place A. H. S. where it is entitled to be, and to wish, for the good of the students, that he may 1 long among them. (71) THE DART A Bi-Monthly Paper Published in the Interests of Ashtabula Hlflh School.

The Dart contains the school news of the preceding two months, together with the scores and lineups of all athletic games. Several good stories and the editorials constitute the literary department. The Sophomores edited the second number of the Dart, and the Juniors the third The Seniors hope that the class next year will follow the precedent which they haw set. and give all their efforts In helping to make the Dart a credit to Ashtabula High school There cure was a 8enlcr named Ruth, lo the dentist she went with a tooth But when she came back.
