Class of 1902 entered the High School in September of 1898 The rest followed them in February of the next year As we did not wishto show our ignorance and appear like children before the eyes of the . ' OST OF the members of the l - QQWT S ' ' zf 5 ' X rest of the class, and the Seniors, we came in the after- noon for the first two or threeidays. We thus became acquainted with the building, and the ways of the teachers, and when' we hnally ventured to put in an appearance at the morning session we felt as though we knew as much about High School life, as any of our predecessors. Our first year did not seem long as we had so many novelties to attract our attention. Every two weeks we had the pleasure of listening to the Fourth Year Rhetoricals, sometimes en- livened by the Glee Clubs. In this manner our Freshman year quickly passed, bring- ing june and the departure of the Class of P 99- SECOND YEAR. After our long CD vacation, we again entered the class room to renew our studies and cares. We did not look forward to this year with very much interest, since we had learned all about the building we desired to know, and now fully understood what was expected of us. One ofthe most interesting events of this year was the Christmas Rhetorical of the Class of 1900. At that time the window given by the Class of ,QQ was unveiled, followed by recitations and a charade. Then too, the play The Winteris Tale, given by this class at Easter helped to break the monotony of school work, and occasional addresses given by Dr. Hubbard, Vice-president ofthe Ameri- can Peace Association,. President Jones of Hobart, 'Mr. Thomas M. Osborne, and many others served to ease, to a certain ex- tent, the pressure of weary toil. After all it did not seem so very long before another class left us behind to plod on toward the long desired goalf I ' 1 THIRD YEAR . The Third Year seemed to be the short- est and most enjoyable of the whole four. We were in a peculiarly happy plane, above the exacting labors of the lower two years and yet free from cares of the Senior year. As the number of students pouring into the High School kept increasing each succeed- ing year, it was found necessary to reserve the West study room for the sole use of the Freshmen, while the upper three classes were to occupy the East room. just here 2 THE SILHOUETTE. we would like to suggest that if this arrange- ment is to be continued lower desks and seats should be placed in the West room for the use of the children 5 it is really quite heart rending to see the little tots sitting with their feet so very far from the floor. This change was very agreeable, especially to the girls, and after we had become accus- tomed to it, we settled down to work again. Our Class accomplished a great deal this year. At mid-year we began to hold class meetings and elected our oflicers. We or- ganized debating clubs and held several de- bates before our own class, and then, after the necessary drilling, before the public. In this line we accomplished something that has never been done by preceding class- es. We also began to hold Rhetoricals every two weeks so that we might become accustomed to the stage and Assembly room before appearing there the following year, when we must needs undergo the scrutiny of the whole school. During the winter the Class had a sleighride to Weed- sport. Besides these many interesting feat- ures of the year we again enjoyed a Shakes- perian play, The Merchant of Venice, given by the Class of IQOI. With class meetings, debates etc., and also a little study, the year iiew by on wings, and the time drew near when we must say farewell to the Class of 1901 We decided to do this in a novel manner. Therefore after a great deal of preparation, on a beautiful- evening in june we gave a reception in their honor. With the assistance of the Faculty we decor- atedthe Assembly room and hall with Hags and flowers, and the yard with japanese lanterns. Our class gave a debate after which all adjourned to the lower hall, where the evening was passed pleasantly with dancing. This was the last time we met ,OI as a class 3 we were now Seniors. Happy Junior Year ! We are loath to bid thee farewell. The memories of thy work are pleasant, and will linger with us through life. ' FOURTH YEAR. We had now reached our Hnal yearg we were Seniors at last, and now for the first time felt what a comparatively brief space remained before we, the Class of 1902, would leave our Alma Mater. How proud we felt as we occupied the back seats in the Study room, looking down upon the gradu- ates! We soon began to hold our class meetings again as usual, and accomplished a great deal, although the newness had worn off. We started our debates but were so busy in other directions that we did not continue them. To our sorrow, Rhetoricals were begun, which have been continued with few interruptions. At Christmas the Class gave a little farce, The Rice Pud- ding, after which came the High School dance. The next event of importance after the vacation, was the sleighride, which nearly the entire class attended. r We again visited Weedsport, and had a very enjoy- able time, due in a large measure to our genial chaperones. At Easter we presented As You Like It, which was a great success. After a short vacation we again came back, dreading to think of the eXam's so near at hand, but which most of us have passed with the usual high mark which is characteristic of all our work. Class Day and Commencement are not far away when the Class of IQO2, gathering up its few be- longings, will vanish like a dream in the night. The glory which she has won was well earned by months of incessant labor, and she trusts that the high standard of her performance will be an incentive to future classes. iii The following 11ote was found on the hallway floor one day in April. As perhaps it never reached its destination, we now publish it for the benefit of whoever it may concern. Dear C-, West Room, April 27, 1902. It is- so long since I heard from you. Why art thou so long silent? Has thy hand palsied? Or is it a want of in- clination? Oh but for a single word to relieve the solitude of Weary study.

The rogram was divided into t ree distinct parts, the morning Rhetorical including the presentation of window by the class of 1901, the play in the evening, and later in the evening a social and dance in the Assembly room. As this plan worked so successfully and met with such universal favor it is sincerely hoped that following classes will see fit to follow our example. lf - 51 5 THE RHETORICAL. The first part of our program consisted of one of the prettiest rhetoricals ever given by our Class. The Chapel was beautifully decorated with evergreens and holly, and the High School Orchestra, which made its nrst public appearance at this time, added not a little to the pleasure of the occasion. After the opening song by the High School chorus, the event of the morning took place-the unveiling of the window of the Class of 1901, and its presentation by Carl Neumeister, president of the class. Mr. Myer accepted the window in behalf of the Board of Education and Prof. E. W. Miller made a few remarks in connection with the gift. The window, which is at the left of the platform, is a work of art that will give pleasure as long as our chapel exists. At the top of the window is the class motto, Labor ommia 'ZJi7ZCi.f,' near the center the torch of knowledge and the wreath of victory gleam from behind the pin of the successful class 5 and at the bottom are the figures Igor. The rest of our morning program con- sisted of music, both vocal and instrument- al, and of recitations and declamations. Success crowned all our efforts and we were all very well satisned with the results of our labors. THE PLAY . The annual Christmas play was given by the Class of 1902 in the Assembly room of the High School on the evening of December 20, 1901. The comedy A Rice Pudding was excellently presented by a carefully selected cast, and a good-sized audience greeted the performance. THE CAST. john Richards, recently married, Henry A. I-Iompe Ellen Richards, his young wife. - Florence M. Andrews Dr. Thwaite, a young physician, - Geo. B. Stewart, jr. Marion, younger sister of Richards, Edna J.

Christmastide was observed by a dance, the memory of which will linger long with every High School student who was present. It was the first dance ever held in the school building and its splendid success augurs well for the future social life of the school. It has long been' the earnest wish of those interested in our welfare that there might be a more general social spirit among the under- graduates and this year that wish was ful- filled in a most encouraging way. The Assembly room presented a most brilliant spectacle on the evening of the dance, its walls draped with college ban- ners sent for the purpose by our loyal alumni, glowed with every conceivable combination of color, the floor was waxed and polished, the gas-jets flickered in a thousand fantastic reflections, while the happy throng glided over the fioor to the sweet strains of Stevens' orchestra. The delicious collation served during the intermission whetted the appetites of the guests to a keener enjoyment till the hours of early morning. Then the gay throng THIS sILI1OU1'lTT1'Z. 4 Separated, leaving the building and the de- li htful occupation of cleaning' UP to that 8 . Wonder of wonders the committee.

So, here's to the Cl-HHC6 that was, and here's more to those that will be . in THE EASTER PLAY Following a custom which has been in vogue at the High School for several years, the Class of 1902 presented at their Easter Rhetorical a Shakesperian play. As each succeeding class persists in this custom the stock of plays by this immortal bard is natur- ally growing smaller year by year and we were very fortunate in hitting upon his happiest comedy, As You Like It, for our own production. This play was partic- ularly adapted for our class g so rich in the music of Amiens, bird-like CPD songs g so smooth in plot 3 so far from all suggestion of boisterousness 3 so witty, so melancholy and so charming, it alforded an opportun- ity to display every branch of talent that our Class possesses and that is saying a great deal for the play. A feature which appealed especially to the undergraduates, was the wrestling match in the hrst act when Orlando throws the professional wrest- ler of the Duke. The lower class men look up to us as a class abounding in athletes and admire us for our prowess in this direct- ion, and so this part of the pi-ogr-3111 5913111011 quite in keeping with a class that has made the record that 1902 has. Our version of As You Like It, was presented in the Assembly 1'OO1l1 Q11 1119 evening of April 4, and was a success 611311- cially as well as drarnaticallyg our friends tell us that it quite overshadows the attain- ment of any preceding class, and We chal- lenge those who follow us to equal it ifthey can. The success of the play was, in 3 large measure due to the careful and pains- taking work of Mr. Bartlett in selecting and drilling the cast, and to Miss Lamey Who superintended the costuming, and to the hearty co-operation ofthe students and other teachers of the school. One-fourth of the gross proceeds ofthe play was given to the Athletic Association, and it is understood that the various manag- ers had a little bit of excitement in the divis- ion of the spoils CPQ 3 at any rate the Asso- ciation is again out of debt. The remaind- er of the money, about eighty dollars, is to go toward the purchase ofa class memorial, probably a window for the west arch in the Assembly room. The school cannot be to proud of the High School Orchestra, which, under the leadership of Mr. XVillian1 Purdy, added very much to the pleasure and success of the evening. Our thanks are also due to the young men of the third year who so kind- ly lent their assistance, and to Mr. Lawton of the Burtis Opera House, for his timely artistic assistance with the scenery. After the play a flash-light of the actors was taken by Mr. Krzuner. svxovsis. ACT. I. Sci-:Ni-: i--Garden scene. Sul-:xx-1 2--The same. . Scicxxa 3---.-Xu apartment in the palace.

In a lonelv garret, far from all the turmoil and con- fusion of business and travel, where a death- like silence permeates the atmosphere, there sits a youth. In one hand he grasps an ink bespattered pen, and with the other he is gently tearing his matted locks. Now he writes furiously on a large pad of white paper, now he stops and resumes the hair tearing process. Again he writes and again he tears his hair. Now he silently and swiftly demolishes the paper on which he has been Writing and wildly hurls the pieces to the four winds of Heaven. Once more does he proceed to rend what still remains of his matted locks. The clock strikes three. Once again he grasps his inky pen with a firm Half-Nelson and once again he makes the ink ily like sixty for one brief moment. Again he ceases and hurls down hisipen with an agony,-'born of dispair. It is no use. There is but one resourceileft. Shall he dare do it ? Terrorqwhispers, Non necessity bellows, Yes, in a tone of thunder. Still he hesitates. iThe conse- quences! No, no, he cannot. 1But, he must. Is there no escape? None. He has promised. He rises from his seat, with tottering foot-steps he seeks the bureau. He opens the upper drawer! One final re- gret ! With trembling hand he takes from its dark recesses a current number of a lead- ing magazine. He hurries back to the table, hastily copies the principle story, labels it submitted for prize competition, and mails it to the editor of the Silhouette. Ye gods, what next ? W joan of Arc successfully led an army to victory. But did she ever go to a picnic and not scream murder when a little grass- hopper jumped down her neck? History is silent on this point. THE SILHOUETTE. 6 . ATHLETICS. PRQPERLY organized Athletic Association is an important factor in any school. We x have a right to be proud of our association and the good it has done for its members. A few short years ago the athletics of the Auburn High School were in a very precarious condition. There was no Association, no regularly organized teams, no scholarship requirements, and no school enthusiasm in the work. To-day all is changed 3 we have one of the best and most carefully conduct- ed Athletic Associations to be found among the High Schools of the State. All the athletics of the school are completely under the control of this Association, and the result 'is that we have gradually come to be a power in the eyes of the various schools with which we come in contact. We have a wise and good constitution, and it is carefully lived up to. A student must be a student in good standing before he is' allowed to play on any of the teams. The games are continually talked over in school and great interest and enthusiasm is at all times manifest among the students. Under these conditions, athletics must prosper, and the 'brilliantrecords made by all our teams since the formation of our Association, speak volumes of the value of such an organization. The thanks and congratulations of the school are due Mr. Warner, President of the Association,under whose guidance it was organized, and our athletics brought into prominence from the gloom which shadows their earlier existence. SJ '4g 1:.::g'21L ' V fwighmsh 3HW m.l A ' :gig U N'E5HWMV -x g FOOT BALL. In the Foot Ball Team of Igor, we had one of the most successful elevens that ever represented the school. Success C1-Owned its efforts upon the gridiron, and to such an extent that not once during last fall did an opposing team lower the maroon and white, a remarkable record, for any team to make, but really wonderful for our own when the class of the teams pitted against us is taken into consideration. With a very strong nucleus from the team of 1900 and several new comers upon which to build a foundation, Captain Hosmer and Coach Hennessy started at work early in the season to round out the material and put the team in the best possible condition. Meanwhile Manager Murdock had arranged a complete and well-placed schedule of games, the list when completed containing some of the fastest elevens in the State. Our first game, with the strong East Syracuse High School eleven, was played at the Y. M. C. A. Field, September 28. The residents of East Syracuse are 'drm be- lievers in the benefit to be derived from edu- cation, thorough education, for if the mem- bers of their football team are any criterion the roll call of their School has contained the same list of names from its inception and in all probabilities will for some time to come. They were the fastest set of runners as a team that ever came into Auburn and as for size, they would have made front-rank members of King Edward's Royal Guards. But they lacked a knowledge in the fine points of the game, in which Auburn was thoroughly schooled and although we won by the close score of I2 to ro, we were, nevertheless, by far the better team. The following Saturday, October 5, we played the University Preparatory School of Ithaca, considered the best preparatory school eleven in tl1e State. NVe scored touchdown after touchdown, almost at will. and lack of time prevented us from rolling up a larger score than 16, while our giant opponents took o for their side of the tally sheet. October 12, occurred what was probabll' the football event of the year in local circles. We defeated, on that date, Syracuse High THE sILHoUETTE, School 16 to 5. It was the iirst time in 11131137 years that the football teams of Auburn and Syracuse had met, but that had not diminished the old time rivalry in the least. It was one of the hardest fought games ever played in Auburn and we did all of our scoring in the last half. Incident- ally it might be mentioned that when Syra- cuse played Ithaca High School, later in the season, for the championship of the In- ter-scholastic league, which virtually carries with it the championship of the State, they were defeated by the same score as by us, 16 to 5. These were her only two defeats. Ithaca Preparatory eleven, probably fear- ing a repetition of its defeat earlier in the season, canceled the return game at the last moment but Manager Murdock was equal to the occasion and immediately arranged a game with Union Springs High School to be played on their grounds. Our reputation had preceded us and although they had made lengthy preparations for us they were still not in our class. We toyed with them, tried new stunts and invented new plays and systems on the spur of the moment and won the game, 38 to o. Our renown could now no longer be re- strained within High School limits and re- quest after request came from Preparatory schools and colleges asking for a place on our schedule. Finally we arranged a game with Hobart College with what was presum- edly their sub-varsity team. For the fair name of that college we hope it was but we still have our doubts about its being entitled to the prefix sub. If we take this team as a example of the athletics in the Geneva In- stitution, then indeed Hobart was well repre- sented on the gridiron last fall. The details and story of that game are to well known to make repetition of them here. Every one who followed the work of the team through- out the year remembers it. Although we are extremely sorry for the trouble caused, it is only due to our team and the puplis who were spectators, to commend their N . . . 7 actions at this game. Throughout they acted' like gentlemen, had no part in and were not to blame for the outbreak and were mainly instrumental in assisting the police to quell the disturbance. The contest was declared no game by the referee. The Hobart game had a bad effect on the team, three men being so badly hurt that to resume practice during the remainder of the season was an utter impossibility, and the parents of others forbidding them to play. The outlook for a good team or in fact any team with which to meet the strong Oak- wood Seminary eleven on Thanksgiving Day was not very bright. But that spirit of determination, which has always character- ized the athletics of the school, came to the rescue once more and we soon had twenty men on the field, very few of whom had ever played a game of football 3 efficient practice and coaching again told, and on Thanks- giving Day, before a large crowd, we wound up the season by defeating Oakwood 1: 5 to 5 in a very exciting game. On that day the active work of the team of Igor came to an end without a defeat marked up against it. For this remarkable record we have to thank one and all, mem- bers of the team, manager and coach. We could not mention one man without dis- criminating against some other. While it is true that some did more than others to- ward victory, all did their very best and should be praised accordingly. Special mention- must be made of the work of Coach Thomas I. Hennessy. Every afternoon rain or shine, Mr. Hennessy was present at practice, assisting in every way and directing the work. His spirit of vim, so apparent that it became contagious, was imparted to the team and had a fine and lasting influence. Thewriter, on be- half of the Association, and the members of the team, extends sincere thanks to Mr. Hennessy, and hopes that future teams may have the advantage of his training. Mr. Hennessy refused recompense for his work, 8 THE SILHOUETTE. saying, I am amply paid when thenteam obeys orders and does its best to win.

May success al- ways follow the members of the team, the manager and the -coach. josnrrr S. HANLON. . HOCKEY. As soon as the High School boys can clean off the Thanksgiving Day mud, they begin to think of skating. As a proof of this, immediately after. the Thanksgiving game, each class held a stag meeting and elected captains and managers for their respective hockey teams. At the meeting of the fourth year, Fred Parker was elected manager and Harold Putman captain, who, on account of press of duties, was compelled to give up his office and Harold Ferris was elected in his stead. William Hickstein and john Lough- borough were elected as captain and manag- er respectively of the third year. Frank Rich held sway over the second year team, which was ably managed by William Pierce, Carl Brunt and Herbert Wilson kept the Freshmen going, as manager and cap- tain. With the first ice at the Brick-yard some ambitious members of High 'School began practice in wielding the bent stick and as soon as the Y. M. C. A. rink was opened, the ice was covered with hockey players, all anxious to get at somebody. At a meeting of the managers of the differ- ent teams a schedule was arranged, where- by each team was to play two games with each of the other teams and more if the weather would permit. But the H Weather man was not as kind as all that and would not let them play even the two games, aplece' S0 this YGar's hockey season was not as complete as the enthusiasm of the players indicated. As it is, the third year claim the laurel, and rightly they may, for they won four out of ive games played. The fourth and second tied for next best place, each winning three out of ive. The first year failed to get any games, not because of any laxity on the part of its captain and manag- er, but because its members, as a whole, would not come out and try for the team. But we know that the same spirit, that has animated every class before, will soon show itself and lead 'o 5 to many a victory. To the Class of '04 we extend our praise for the manly way in which they contended against teams older and heavier and which led them to a place so near the head. To 'o3, we give our greatest praise and con- gratulation, as being the first class in Auburn High School, that ever beat old 'oz in any branch of athletics since we were freshmen. , C. VV. S. TRACK . During the last three years track athletics have been striving to gain for themselves the popularity and firm foothold which characterizes foot ball and base ball but which it has taken them many more years to acquire. Perhaps, indeed, it may not be too much to say that with proper support they will obtain that coveted foothold and gain the popularity toward which it has already been advancing with rapid strides, but the proper support must of neccessity be forthcoming I For while a few students do foresee tl1e advantages as well as the splendid opportunities offered by this broad field of sport, now stretching out before them, and grasp them before it is too late, many through carelessness or indifference, let them pass by and do not perceive the fact that they have lost not a few of their golden opportunities in athletics.

Very few persons have any idea of the ability or endurance they possess but having oncegained confidence in themselves, a neces- sary essential for success in athletics,they are often surprised at the unlooked for results. Without doubt anyone who earnestly and faithfully trains cannot surely fail to gain health and strength, if not undying fame, and in place of that tired, lazy feeling to cause to be substituted a feeling of buoy- ancy, vigor and life with which the Creator has intended each one of us to be endowed. And the one who possesses these character- istics may be said to possess some of the qualihcations which go a long way toward the making of success in life. Early in the season Manager Somers had arranged for a meet with Cortland Normal to be held at Auburn on May Io, but Was disappointed and although he attempted to Secure a dual meet with some other school, his attempts were all in vain, for many and varied were the excuses which were present- ed by the different schools none of Whom, and perhaps they had excellent reasons, Seemed particularly anxious to meet our track team. The track team of Auburn High SCl1001 Was one of the many teams that participated in the Interscholastic Meet at Clinton, N. Y., under the auspicies of Hamilton College, but it was evident that for size and condition it was the one. It is true that Utica W011 the meet, but it was necessary for our team to take a long tedious trip while it was 011157 I . 4 . 9 1lL't'uHs:1ry for Utica to make a short journey by trolley. If the individual members, ol the team were not satisfied, yet their suppo,-ter-5 in Auburn were over-joyed when they learned that instead of being half way down the list, Auburn was second and had in the prolonged tussel been beaten by only three points. So deep Con- tentrnent reigned in Auburn hearts and there is no doubt existing in the minds of anyone, into whose hands the pennant will fall next year if Auburn is able to send as strong team as that of this year to the In- tersholastic meet. As the excellent management of the meet does not need to be commented upon and as the members of the other teams were courteous and gentlemanly in behaviour nothing occured to mar the serenity of the occasion. During the Whole of their stay in Clinton both the team and its rooters were the guests of the Delta Kappa Epsilon and the Chi Psi fraternities of Hamilton College and the thanks of the team and its support- ers are due to these societies for their gener- ous hospitality. No member of the team can be praised too highly for his efforts in this meet and all of them contended in a manner which was creditable both to the team and to the school.

BASE BALL - t This season has given the Athletic Asso- ciation of the Auburn High School the bCS'C base ball team that has represented that in- ,O THE SILHOUETTE. stitution on fthe diamond in many years. We had an exceptionally good lot of mater- ial to pick from, most of last yearis team being available, and with plenty of practice, a remarkably swift nine was developed. To go through such a season as the one just passed and have but three defeats marked up against it, is a record any school may justly be proud of. ' We had some very swift teams on our schedule and held up our end of it in a most creditable manner. With our old time rival, Cascadilla, we had little difficulty, easily defeating her on the Seminary Campus in the irst game of the season. Stiles School had the honor of being one of the few teams that succeeded in defeating us, but we wiped out the disgrace of that defeat by beating the Ithaca lads on their own grounds by a score of 7 to 3. We played our usual games with the Theological Seminary and divided honors with them, each team winning a game 3 we also won an easy victory from the Business College. V This is the first year we have entered into athletic relations with Rochester High School. We defeated that institution both at Auburn and on their home grounds and, although we clearly out classed them in our ability to play base ball, they showed that they possessed the true sportsman's spirit by the way they accepted their defeats and by their courteous and gentlemanly behavior during both games. Such conduct is most commendable and is the best advertisement a school can have. The athletics of Roches- ter High School are evidently conducted on a higher standard than those of the average high school and we hope that our inter- course with that institution may be long continued. For two of our three defeats we atoned by winning the return games, and St. IOl111,S Military School base ball team was the only organization that we' played and did not defeat. The closeness of the score in that one game warrants the beleif that we could have won the second game had if 110'C been canceled by our prospective opponents upon a very trifiing excuse. We cannot speak too highly of the line work done by the individual members of the team, and the excellent showing they have made. This season brings us one step nearer to the high plane of athlet- ics which we are striving for, and ours is a record that will not soon be forgotten. In former years Auburn High School has placed winning teams in the held, but this year, while our prospects were bright at the beginning, good fortune has followed us to the very end, and more has been accom- plished than ever before. This season is the first that ever witnessed our High School play a college team, and we probably gave Rochester University the surprise of her life when her team returned home defeated by a score of 21 to 1 1. Although several good men will leave the school with the Class of 102, there will still remain plenty of excellent timber for a winning team next season, and we hope that success may crown all their eforts.

Bacon has said, The sear leaf of Autumn is as necessary as the fresh bud of spring g the waning glory at the end of a career as the radiant expectancy of its beginning. Therefore regret should not be one of our emotions as we look for the last time over High School course which is so nearly finished, and realize that in a few short days we shall go forth from these portals never again to enter as undergrad- uates. We have been an extraordinary class. Not in numbers, many have surpassed us there 3 perhaps not in scholarship, although we pride ourselves that we rank among the first even in this line 3 but as an all round class, in the recitation room, on the foot ball field, on the base ball diamond, on the track, in social halls, in literary achieve- ments and on the stage, we challenge the world to produce such a class, under the same conditions. It was ,O2,S pleasant privelege to in- augurate a welcome change in the celebra- tion of commencement week. The week of social gaiety which came with her success- ful Completion of her junior year was such a bright spot in the work of the class, was so thoroughly enjoyed by both Faculty and students, that the junior reception bids fair to become one of the most noteworthy ,events in the bright future life of the Auburn High School. The Class of 'oz also had the honor during the week preceding the Christmas vacation to dedicate the custom of a Christmas dance, which we hope will live as long as the High School exists. Many are the victories whose laurels lie on the brow of ,023 many the struggles with fate and with each other. Those were the beginnings now merged into the end. We have done our work well and are now ready to enjoy that time when we shall stand, bashful and modest as usual, before the assembled multitude of undergraduates and friends, whose admiring glances and subdued whispers will speak the rapture and awe they experience at the inspiring sight, and we shall receive the costly sheep-skin to be kept forever as a token of our career, the climax of our desires. And at the same time we will be regarded as the sear and yellow leaf, useless and un- wanted, to be blown away by the next eddying breeze and with the end of the old life begin a new existence. We, following in the footsteps of our illustrious predecessors, have turned our hand to journalism. How well we have succeeded we leave for your good judgment to say. We hope you will be pleased with our effortg but at any rate, if you cannot praise it, if you can see in it nothing worthy Of coinmendation, grant us at least, the charity of silence.

For the adaption and drawing of the design on our cover, praise is due to Mr. Carl Somers, whose artistic talent has al- ready won him local celebrity. We also wish to extend our thanks to all, faculty and students who have in any way aided us in this work. If you are pleased with this number of the High School Annual, we beg of you to remember those who have made it possible, the loyal advertisers. It is only by their timely hnancial aid that such a work is possible, and although it is doubtful if the investment is always a profitable one to them, still they stand Hrmly with us. It is the least you can do to stand hrmly by them in return. W DURING THE fall months, foot ball takes up most of the time and attention that school athletes can give to sport. The coming season should bea remarkable one in the history of our school, for it will show what a comparatively new and in- experienced team is able to do, under new management and under virtually new regu- lations. Gur athletics have at least reached a point where we may safely say improve- ment is ditiicult. Many and various plans have been tried during the few years since our Athletic Association was founded, the wheat has been winowed from the chaff, and we are now, perhaps for the first time In the history Of the school, where the management knows exactly what to do and What the result will be. L21StS921S01l WHS, to a certain extent, a successful one, still mistakes were made and we have learned by experience what should be done ill such critical conditions as confronted us last year. In the Hrst place we have learned in two games that f' second teams are apt to be disasterous investments. Colleges are primarily insti- tutions of learning, but it seems to be a fact that there are several foot ball players in some of them who are suddenly seized with a desire to attend school or college just as tl1e season opens and lose all desire to study just before Thanksgiving. We had an eloquent example of this in our game with Hobart 2nd, on October 26. Then in the game we were to play with Union Springs High School, where the whole township had been scoured in order to get men who were able to give us a good reception 3 men who, saying nothing of being high standing students, had not even ever attended the school they were expected to represent. The value of clean, pure athletics is very evidently not appreciated in some places. The game of our second team with Weed- sport High School was another mistake which should never be repeated. Such games can never help High School athletics. Foot ball is a good healthy sport, in fact there is none better, when it is played and encouraged by gentlemen, and not by roughs, such as are to' be found in the prize ring, and the habit of betting on these games should be put down with a strong hand, instead of being countenanced, as it often is, by members of the team them- selves. It is a deplorable fact that many hundred great and honorable men and women, although they do not desire to see their boys brought up milksops or eifemin- ate, are decrying the game on account of its brutality. It is unfortunate that we should be forced to acknowledge that sharp prac- tice occurs in foot ball to a greater extent than in any other game. More acts of meanness occur in the course of one foot i I4 THE s1LHoUn'r'r1f:. a whole season of ball game than during ck athletics. Men will punch base ball or tra d kick one another when the referee can- an not see them, and Will resort to all sorts of uld blush to acknowl- edge afterward. But this should not be made the fault of the game but of the play- er. As for its brutality, it is useless to say anything, a certain class of people is so prejudiced against it that talk is vain 3 it is only by those who are not familiar with it that its more brutal element appeals and in their ignorant denunciation of the sport they lose sight of its true purpose and ele- vating results. With the graduation of the Class of ,O2, several men who have helped to raise athletics to their present high standard will leave the school. These men have been the very life of athletics for the past three years and their departure will call forward a new band of athletes to uphold the honor of the Auburn Academic High School. It is proper that we, who are so soon to go out from this school, should leave a few words of advice to you who are to succeed us. How well you will prosper in your un- dertakings only time can tell. You have good material to pick from and there is no reason why you should not meet 'with , success. You have good officers 3 they will lead you to victory if you will only do your share. Remember at all times, that al- though you play to win, you have nothing to lose, and an honorable defeat is better than a dishonorable victory. You are not playing for money but for honor and your health's sake. The vanquished gain quite as much as the winners if they have done their best, and those players never win who resort to foul tactics although they score many more points than their opponents.

Prior to the presentation of the Eagtey play by the Class of IQO2, Mr. Bartlett re- quested two well known literary sharks of the class to compose a metrical prologue to the play. The prologue was written but owing to a peculiar combination of circum- stances, was never presented to Mr. Bart- lett, and is now for the first time published in all its original simplicity. The author's names are withheld for various reasons. We place upon this mimic stage to-night, A classic play both sorrowful and bright. The Muse of prosody we've wooed in vain, To help us sing a more poetic strain. Though poor, pray let our humble effort stand, Let critics nothing more from us demand. The world's a stage, the poet once did say, A portion of that world is in this play. Truth swayed the minds of men in days of yore, As then, the present and for ever more. The ruling passions whirl the thoughts of men, Through inspired word of tongue or trembling pen To soothe the troubled and to cheer the hearth, Or sway the destinies of this great earth. Precision, skill and nimbleness of mind Rise high above mere strength and all brute kind. But still more potent, rises high above Earth's sordid influence, love, impassioned love.

I5 THE CLINTON TRIP. i tv SATURDAY, May 17, our ' I track team journeyed to Clin- ' ton to participate in the inter- 7 scholastic meet at that place ' Wg., under the auspices of Hamil- Iff? ton College. A delegation of ! students accompanied the ff' team and it was by far the largest crowd that has ever gone so far away from home with any of our teams There were in . all about thirty High School students in the party and the trip was heartily enjoyed by all. We arrived at Clinton at about I 2 o'clock, and were driven at once to the college grounds where the several members of the party were assigned to the various fraternity houses for safe keeping. Those who were so fortunate as to be situated near the chapel were able to hear the prize speaking contest in which several High Schools of the state were represented. The field meet began at two, and although we inet with hard luck in several of the events we were still able to make a credit- able showing and secured a total of 3 5 points, only three behind Utica High School, and thus securing second place. A detailed account of this meet will be found elsewhere. . . The members of the team were not allow- ed to remain away from home over night, since our Faculty had seen fit to put this restriction on them, but several of the other students stayed at the College till the follow- ing day and were thus afforded an oppor- tunity of looking the place over in a more thorough manner. On Sunday we listened to an interesting sermon by President Stryk- er in the college chapel. We visited the various fraternity houses and college build- ings and it is very evident that every member of the party was very favorably im- pressed with all that he saw. .It was the very best time of the year possible for such a visit 5 the campus was in a beautiful con- dition and the scenery in that vicinity is the 'finest in the country. Perhaps one of the most interesting things about the institution is its gymnasium and athletic field. The field and track were in fine shape and the records made by our men at the meet speak highly of what is possible on a good track. We were very hospitably entertained during our stay and were particularly im- pressed by the general air of comrade and good-fellowship which seemed to permeate the atmosphere, and there is little doubt that for a person' seeking a university edu- cation this factor should be taken into con- sideration. At every turn one meets with evidences of the best of feeling between faculty and students, and-of the hearty co- operation of the one for the other. This is a very significant fact, when the students love and respect the Faculty and the Faculty enter into the lives of their students with a hearty and brotherly spirit, the entire object of a college course has been accomplished 3 nothing but the best of results can follow. While this article is not intended as a puff for Hamilton College, it gives some idea of the deep and lasting impression made upon every High School student who was present at the meet. To those who contemplate a college course, the prospect onfered by such a venture Was perhaps never so clearly brought to their notice as by this one trip. There are other colleges like Hamilton, and we cannot urge too strong- ly of everyone who can possibly do so, seek a c olle g e education. It will be a good-investment. 03 Henry A.

The first outing of this illustrious organi- zation occurred early in june and was de- cided on rather unexpectedly after a some- what hasty meeting. A trip to the lake and a day in the coolness of its shadowdy breezes served as a very agreeable relief from the' monotony of a stuffy schoolhouse in a small-pox stricken city, and it is doubt- ful if any member of the party ever spent a more enjoyable day. Between Duck-on- the-rock, and fistic combats for the edin- cation of the rural denizens everybody was kept thoroughly enjoyed and amused, and there was excitement enough for the most blood-thirsty. They ate peanuts and drank pop till they were tired and if they had succeeded in raising sufficient price to hire a boat, their cold still forms might now be reposing in the bosom of billowy Owasco, and THE SIL- HOUETTE might now be looking for another Editor. However no such good luck occur- red to add zest and joy to the occasion, and from the time the irst roll of handbills was discovered until Vic in a wild outburst of generosity donated his last nickle for the purchase of a fresh invoice of peanuts, nothing of a painful nature took place to mar the pleasure of the renowned club. The location of the place chosen for the picnic was faultless, and if it hadn't been for the dampness of the soil which came near dragging a promising candidate for the Boston Conservatory of Music beneath its gooey surface, the next reunion would probably be held upon that renowned battle field. For the benefit of those who were members of the party and participated in its orgies we would say that word has just reached this oflice that a prominent farmer of the town of Owasco is looking for the miscreants who carried away his rail fence, and made his Stonewall look like Genesee Street after the asphalt people had got in their lirst licks- MBLERS. l... his illustrious organi- in June and was de- ectedly after a some- A trip to the lake ness of its shadowdy very agreeable relief a stuffy schoolhouse n city, and it is doubt- he party ever spent a Between Duck-on- :ombats for the edin- .izens everybody was fed and amused, and enough for the most nd drank pop till they my had succeeded in to hire a boat, their 10W be reposin g in the vasco, and THE SIL' ae looking for another such good luck occur- y to the occasion, and roll of handbiiis was in a wild outburst of s last nickle for the invoice of peanuts, nature took place to the renowned club. olace chosen for the and if it hadn't been the soil which came ising candidate for the of Music beneath its next reunion would n that renowned battle use who were members ricipated in its orgies rd has just reached ninent farmer of the ing for the miscreants rail fence, and made e Genesee Street after got in their first licks. FOOT BALL SQUAD 1901 THE s1LHoUETTE. I7 IUNIOR RECEPTION. V ' AST JUNE the Class of '02, thinking by this means to make a htting end to the year and to commencement week, determined to inaugurate a custom of the Junior Class tendering each year a reception to the Seniors. After due deliberation and much to the delight of the staid Seniors this dream became a reality, In preparation for- this, the great event of the year, we juniors labored night and. day and a Friday evening, june 28, received the reward of our toils in .hearty applause and congratulations from the attending public and especially from the Class of ,OI.' It was a source of wonder to all that the halls and grounds could be made to assume such a beautiful appearance, and indeed the grounds lit by japanese lanterns and with globes of vari-colored light swinging from the trees afforded a perfect paradise for promenaders. The lower hall draped with bunting and decorated with tastefully arranged flowers made an ideal place for dance and merrymaking. The first part of the evening was given up to a debate between members of the junior Class. This portion of the evening's program was open to the public and taking advantage of the opportunity they came in goodly numbers. Introductory remarks were made by President Drummond and then the audience settled itself to an enjoy- ment of the debate proper. The question under consideration was : Resolved- That fiction has done more for the advancement of civilization than history. The affirmative was upheld by Miss Hemingway and Messrs. Osterhout and Stewart, the negative by Miss Sperry and Messrs. Murdock and Hom pe. Both sides handled the proposition in masterful style. Messrs. Aiken, Hoyt and Myer sat as judges 1 - ,BHl'flTlhYillfilas. 24. 2 '- fliliilllllllllliilll and after carefuldeliberation gave their de- cision in favor of the affirmative. As the remainder of the evening present- ed attractions only for the two upper classes, the general public dispersed leaving none but words of commendation and approval. After the departure of the crowd the Senior Class was received in the office by the reception committee of the juniors succeed- ing which a bountiful luncheon was served in the various rooms of which all partook with seeming pleasure and zest. It was whispered that some deemed this use of the recitation rooms quite superior to the intend- ed one. After this retrenchment'Stevensi orchestra furnished music for dancing which needless to say was thoroughly enjoyed by all. ' The reception finally ended, as of necessity do all things earthly, but not until the hours of early morn had filled our cup of ,pleasure to overflowing and though but a memory lingers of that j oysome hour yet will it linger long. . C The Class of 'oz sincerely desires and hopes that other classes will be encouraged by this hrst success and will perpetuate this reception until it becomes a tradition and a hallowed custom of our school. , KU Prof. Strong,-To a third year student who is having difriculty with his Geometry : Don't add like that.

WASHINGTON, D. C., MAY 28, 1902. ' ASHINGTGN, the Capital of the United States, is full of interesting and historical spots which entertain the visitor from the time l1e alights from the train to the moment of his departure. If he comes 'by the Pennsylvania railroad the first thing pointed out to him will be a small red tile in the white flooring of the depot. It was here that President Garfield was shot by an assassin. Pennsylvania Avenue, the main thoroughfare of Washington, extends from beyond the Executive Mansion and the Treasury to the Capitol. The Avenue is an ideal place to get a glimpse of the dis- tinguished men of the nation, as they go to and return from the Capitol. The Capitol at this season of the year is most imposing, surrounded by the green foliage and lawn and is reached from all parts of the city by broad boulevards, which are greatly appreciated, to judge from the numerous steam carriages, smart equipages and vehicles of all styles. The Congressional Library is the hnest equipped library in the world. Over a million volumes are at the disposal of the public, in addition to newspapers, periodi- cals, etc. Each department of the Govern- ment has a library which is open to students and the public. The largest of these are the libraries of the 'Supreme Court of the United States, Patent Office, Smithsonian Institution and the Bureau of Education. The city is further enriched by a library building given by Andrew Carnegie at a cost of f3oo,ooo. The educational facilities of Washington are unexcelled. Georgetown University, situated in the highest part of quaint old X AX 'ff' W 1? - fi' W r n THE SILHOUETTE. Georgetown, has a broad view of Maryland and Virginia across the Potomac. Besides the regular course in arts, Georgetown grants degrees in theology, law and medi- cine. Athletics are very popular and successful in all branches. The Columbian University is a collegiate institution of equal rank with Georgetown and offers exception- ally good opportunites to government clerks. Many of Uncle Sam's employees have received degrees in medicine or law but lack the self conhdence to practice their profession although some have resigned good positions and have made a success in their chosen work. Some ofthe best patent lawyers in Washington obtained their train- ing in this way and are now in the front rank in this particular branch of legal talent. Mount Vernon on the Potomac River and Alexandria, the town which George Wash- ington planned and surveyed, when but a boy of seventeen, make pa delightful excur- sion and are reached by electric cars and steam boats. Arlington Cemetery, with its rows upon rows of illustrious dead, vividly impresses upon the visitor the awful havoc of war. Washington Monument can be seen from all parts of the District of Columbia, and from its lofty top the spectator can be- hold the States of Maryland and Virginia, with the Potomac winding its way to the bay. Every American citizen can find in the National Capital something that will inter- est and instruct. To the politician, lawyer and man of affairs, the Capitol is the attract- ive magnet. The literateur may ind an abundance of intellectual nianna in the score of libraries, While the Corcoran Gall- ery of Art claims the attention of the dab- bler in oils and water colors.

I9 HAMILTON COLLEGE, JUNE 16, IQO2. The conception of a college is as varied as the nature of the mind. The question as to the constituency of a college has a two- fold answered definition. A college is an asso- ciation from first principle. That organism which we title college has two component partsg the facilities which it affords for one's development and the men who matriculated on its rolls absorb its lifting and ennobling influences. This life is one of lasting reciprocity. Its advantages should be reliexly acquisitive. What the college is We read in its influence upon its members. The elements which should subtend this substantial source of welfare and of culti- vation are not necessarily the faculty of the college nor its vastnessg the chief feature needs not to be the members of entered men nor the presence of imposing halls. The subjective side of a college is com- prised of its courses of instruction, its faculty, its facilities, its environment and its traditions, all these contents are to be reflected in some way upon the objective part the college man. Of these pre-requisites to prontable college course Hamilton has all and We assert that wealth in no pretension mood. Our curriculum affords a challenge to the most masterly ability of the students. Our faculty is strong in comparative mem- bers and in depth of subject. Our environment is one of beauty and historic interest, tradition and romance are written on its landscape in the most legible of cipher. At the junction of the valleys of the Mohawk and Oriskany, on the hill from Which the vistas stretch for miles, the scene and all its richness are quite unsurpassed. The trees set out by jefferson in 1806 still shed their poplar shade. The old Indian well yet gushes forth refreshment as in the days of Shenandoah. The old log cabin on the campus still breathes the voices of Kirkland of Washington and Alexander Hamilton. The cemetery beneath whose gentle slope slumber the revered of Hamil- ton's departed chiefs is a map on which we trace the memories of those whose lives were spun into the tapestry of ours and of those to come. In truth the environs of Hamilton have an aroma and an atmosphere of all that is and has been rich in life. But we do not mean that Hamilton is but a location occupied by its eleven vine-hung and tradition breathing halls. Its environ- ment of unexcelled attractiveness is but its half. The elements that mills the larger part is the broad democracy in all its life which under recognition, places all on common ground and fills the hearts of all to alma mater. This is the true cordial of her strength. All departments of college life- meet im- partial espousal and acknowledgment. Athletics and scholarship run their tides side by side, all branches harmonize and blend, all those who follow them are as a unit. There are no strangers on the hill of Kirkland. These advantages coupled With the fact that we proudly bear the surname U Small H unfold to those who enter opportunities which by the added influence of intensive activity make Hamilton a college where the ordinary obstacles of college life are coped With and conquered with more ease and far advanced success. To sum it up the re- sume would readg Hamilton is a small college large with advantages on that account. She has a faculty of proportion- ate size and exceptional strength. On this account both know both and the college men get a more extent good from all their fellowship. Men can individualize them- selves to affairs. Opportunities are not lost in a vast expanse of fighting energy which makes a carnage of survival, Hamilton is the core of all that's good in college life and we hope to see the graduates of Auburn High School derive that Welfare in larger measure and in larger number. There are other colleges in some ways perhaps betterg there are others perhaps as good in most Ways 3 but we believe that Hamilton is best -... and trust that our boast may have consideration, N. L.

Naughty two's Senior year is drawing to a close, and the round of the festivities which serve as a play spell before separation and serious work is at hand. The first event, which marks the beginning of the end, occurred on Wednesday morning, june 18, when the class met for the last time in chapel. Rev. Frederick W. Palmer, of the Central Presbyterian Church deliver- ed the address and the class song and several of the old stand-bys were sung. The Assembly room was tastefully decorat- ed by the junior Class. ' june 2I was the date scheduled for the annual inter-class field-meet at the Y. M. C. A. field. Space forbids us at this time making any intimation as to the outcome of this contest. . S On Sunday evening, June 22, Rev. Dr. john Brainard, preached the Baccalaureate sermon at St. Peter's Church. Wednesday, June 25, occur the Class Day exercises and the committee has prepared no pains to provide a program worthy of our reputation for originality, typical of our growth, and Htting for a High School event. . Commencement proper will take place Thursday evening, june 26, in the Assembly Room. The speakers are announced else- where. Nineteen girls and twenty-seven boys will receive diplomas. The week will close with the Third Year reception to the Graduating Class on Friday evening, june 27. The juniors have enter- ed thoroughly into the spirit of the affair and are striving diligently to rival the accomplishments of their predecessors. Stevens' Orchestra will furnish music and in the course of the evening refreshments will be served. One of the features of the evening will be a debate between the two upper classes, The following question will be argued, Resolved-That General Funs- ton was justified in his method of capturing Aguinaldof' The Fourth Year, represent- ed by Drummond, Thompson and Miss Hemingway, will support the affirmative, while Loughborough, Misses Bartlett and Somers will argue negatively for the Third Year. The Third Year Class officers will act as reception committee. This event ends commencement week and the career of IQO2 as a High School class. il? 1902 CLASS SONG TUNE, ALMA. MATER, CORNELL- Four short years we've passed together, 'Mid these loved scenes here, Passed through fair and stormy weather, Conquered every fear. Hail ye classmates ! rally classmates, Here for nineteen two, And around her sacred altar, Sing our last adieu. Far too soon our school life's ended, Far too soon we part. Now from toil with pleasure blended, Turn with saddened heart. Hail ye classmates I farewell classmates, ' Farewell nineteen two. While we gather 'round thy altar We must sing adieu. If on us shines Fortune brightly, Let us loyal be, May the touch of mem'ry lightly Waft our thoughts to thee. Firm in friendship, ever loyal, Sing of nineteen two, In the future round her altar May we meet anew. Fall heaven's blessings without number Gently from above, Till in trust we softly slumber In a Father's love.

Several letters from High School gradu- ates were received too late for publication. We have also received a number of inter- esting articles from undergraduates which are crowded out on account of lack of space. Our beloved president responded to a toast at the Sentinel banquet on the even- ing of May 13, and his hearers were so moved by his eloquence that they forgot to applaud at the proper time. The ice wasn't what it was cracked up to be.
