Senior Class ce a Song Now to our sorrow the time is near, When comrades beloved must sever; We've sorrowed or smiled with each classmate here, Nor shall we our friendship resign. But there’s a good wish for a friend so dear, A friend we shall love forever; So now ere we part, come ever true heart And pledge we this toast of mine, Here’s to her o'er and o'er; Pledge her success where’er she be, On mountain or sea or shore. Here’s to her sons and daughters fair, Here’s to their hearts so true; Here’s to our school the best of schools, Here’s to the white and blue. While thus we are weaving our memories, The days of our High School reviewing, And part from the scene we love so well We must at the parting repine. But hope for the future our woes dispels, Our hearts with new life renewing; So now ere we part from every true heart, Chorus: Here’s to the Class of Nineteen Five, Re-echo this toast of mine. Churus: Oh Nineteen Five, oh Ninteen Five, Our hearts are filled with love; High School Toast: And true to thee will ever be, Here’s to thee Our Alma Mater, As are the stars above. Ae ea Seren ee fu C, Long years shall pass ere our dear class, We ever shall forget; May She rise to Heaven's Zenith, And all our fears, our hopes our tears, Higher, greater, but no less.

We're the only class for many years, For which women suffragists have fears; The Spinster ’04's claimed they were unique, And that to find, you would have far to seek; Eleven girls without one boy, But we report with pride and joy An equal number of boys and girls, Each one of whom is worth rare pearls, And each one has some talent choice, Of brain, or brawn, finger or voice. Our School Board we must truly thank, For giving us teachers of such high rank; Mr. Harrison, honest, wise and just, In whom we have confidence and trust; Has been the star of the school for years, The guide of pupils through sunshine and tears; Long may he prosper and kindly teach, And show others the paths of knowledge each; And as the sun sinks with splendor in the west, Thus may he go to life's great rest. Dear Mr. Tyner, a boy with the boys, Shares with all our confidence and joys; And when in foot ball he won't certify the list, The boys know he’s right and don’t insist. BY GUY B:. WEST Poem Mrs. Leasure with her great talents rare, Treats all her pupils just and fair, She makes them feel that right is law, And here with many teachers is a flaw. While Dear Miss Hoffman with her music sweet, Has made our High School most complete. Our yearly concerts whose renown, Have spread afar from town to town, Were only given through her aid, And the school has reaped the profits made. Our Prexie Jesse has won renown By his wit, and humor through the town; And Rosamond’s pieces thrill the school, O’er all our hearts does she proudly rule; While Druie on the piano plays, Enchanting daily with her lays; Our Dorsey the athlete of our class, Declares his knee patched with sheepskin at last; And Ray already we can see, A great electrician will surely be; Bess for a trained nurse must prepare, On account of the people fer whom she'll care; When Anna upon the violin plays, All cares fly away and we pour out our praise; While Harry the Adam’s of our class, Has kept pegging away and won out at last; Our valedictorian you all know is Maud, Who has worked for the place and whom we applaud. fdr EME SE Gv Ay Reese = _ Our class indeed is hard to beat, And with it the others can scarcely compete; A bright young Junior his parent's joy, Well, we might add, their only boy; And three young sophomores all very green, Attempted to slur us in a way that was mean; By putting a skull and cross bones in bad taste, All over the front walk with some black paste; The Seniors they thought could not survive, But still we continued to live and thrive; And made our plans to catch them all, Ere the shadows would again grow tall; But Mr. Harrison kindly said: “Leave them to me, their title will be read;” And posted Jesse and Ray, that ere the morn It would be scrubbed off, or someone would mourn; Of course we all were anxious to see Who the young smart Alecks really could be; At seven-thirty the boys left town, And stole quietly to the High School ground; Lo! Bice were the Judge, Gasty, Pete and 1, All scrubbing away wiih right good will; Of course they were angry as could be, —Ninteen Hundred Five. When first they the Senior boys did see; And Gasty ordered them not to stay, But to hurry off, and go right away; But the boys stayed on to see the fun, While the youths scrubbed on till the work was done; Yet a big black spot there will always be, If you don’t believe it, just go and see. Now as the sun sinks with Splendor in the West Our Senior class may go to rest. To the Senior class of 1905, Long may she prosper and long may she thrive! And of one thing sure there is no doubt That we’as Seniors have gone out With the greatest record of any before, Of any class that has reached the shore. Our Motto’s teaching, Grief an mit Gott, We're sought to follow as we ought. With the help of God, strive on, strive on, Till comes the day of glorious dawn, When the victor’s well earned meed of praise Shall crown with fruit the fruitful days.

Opportunities await the competent. From far and near comes calls for spec- lalists. Responsible positions invite the worthy. Professional, commercial and mechani- cal fields offer bounteous returns for diligent and skillful service. To particular individuals each presents its advantages and disadvantages. The commercial life has a wide scope, for in every town, however small, we find men en- gaged in this field in one form or another. Into business life one may enter any time, no special course of preparation being demanded, the main requirement is the necessary capital. This enables him to enter the regular routine of business life. But no special chance for advancement along educational lines is offered here. Year after year the merchant performs his work buying and selling with but little change. The mechanical life appeals to those who have talent for science and art. A short course of preparation is needed by some, but often many enter this field direct from High School. The advantages here are numerous. But mechanical and commercial life requiring short preparations and yielding almost immediate results, do not afford the great oppor- tunity of serving humanity that profesional life does. How could we exist, prosper and be happy in this world if it were not for the teachings and help of the professionals in our midst? Of course great sacrifices are made by many that they nay receive the preparation for professional life. But the man with a trained mind is always in demand in preference to one whose mind is in its ordinary state, untrained, and in ten years he receives many times the amount invested. The Doctor, Lawyer, Preacher and Teacher are indeed a necessity in every community. The Doc- tor, one of the most needed, yet least appreciated of our professional men, is truly a blessing to the world. Besides the usual cases of sickness where he is called to give medical aid and cheer, he is also a true servant of God when he ministers to the suffering, and with bright face speaks words of cheer in a hospital ward, where usually all is dark and sad. No one can doubt his op- portunity for doing good. The Lawyer too, has his roll to play in the drama of life. In this GHE ST A RO —__—_Niinteen Hundred Five. SOU Om skgr eel AS S CHE S T A.R— oa —Ninteen Hundred Five, period of our history, when lawlessness and crime seem to be around us on all sides, the lawyer with a thorough understanding of the law of State and Nation, can do much to establish freedom and quiet, And now that divorce history is at its best the lawyer is an important character, For those disconted married people could not endure their trouble without the advice and plea of their attorney, Although his work often consists of but a few quickly spoken words, it counts, and helps much in keeping peace throughout the world, To the Preacher who cares for the spinit- ual welfare of the community, much praise is due Not one of us would wish to live in a land where religion did not have an influence upon life. In this profession one has the chance to reach all classes of people, the laborer as well as the aristocrat, The Teacher who guides a pupil through the earlier part of his life, leading him to the founts of knowledge moulds the future of that child, Education consists in training not only intellect but also character, When the child enters school he goes from home and mother to strange surroundings, Naturally he observes every word and action of his Teacher, And as a lasting’ impression is easily made upon the mind of a child, the habits of a Teacher’s lifé are often displayed jn that of the pupil. Strength ee key of character one of the most im. portant lessons in our entire educa- tion that which makes men and women, should be displayed in the lives of our instructors, The Preacher and Teacher aid the world directly, They have done much to help raise our nation to the high standard morally and intellectually which the man bears, The advantages of prcfessional life are many, especially thoce offered to serve humanity, The mental, moral, physical and spiritual welfare of each life is under the supervision of professionals, To be gure a long course of preparation js necessary befere entering this life and even then the results may seem uncer: tain at first, but as he has a trained mind and courage to stand firm to his profession, success will come “, and then not only benefit himself © but the world. SEMPER PARATUS ‘GelitE-sS PeArR - —_— -—— Ninteen Hundred Five. 4 CLASS HISTORY BY RAY THOMAS | All great things deserve a history, and we, of the class of ‘05 consider its deeds of enough importance to be recorded, On the morning of September 9, 1901, twenty-one fresh looking boys and girls met at the high school building and were shown to the main assembly room, where we were given seats, in the first two rows to the west, by a pleasant faced gentleman whom we recognized as our new principal, Mr. Tyner. Soon the other seats began to fill and by half-past eight nearly all were taken. The occupants of these seats, Sophomores, Juriors and Seniors, took many privileges which we, being only Freshmen did not dare. Soon Mr. Harmison came in, and in a short address spoke of our duties and obligations as students of this fine high school. Then les- sons for that room were assigned and we began to work as well as we could considering the new surroundings, and the thought which would rise above everything else—that we were now students of the Auburn High School. Soon we went to the room across the hall where we found Miss Hodge awaiting us with a smile. Here new lessons were assigned and we found that Miss Hodge would have charge of the Ancient History, Latin and Literature, Mr. Tyre: having the Algebra. The office course, conducted by Mr. Harrison and Mr. Tyner was also popular this year. So we settled down to work, and for the next nine months were busy with Xs and Ys, Latin constructions, the unspeakable names of Ancient History, and the thoughts of Dickens and Shakespeare. During the year several withdrew for reasons best known to themselves. After a short, or seemingly short vacation, we again met in the fall of 1902, and now being Sophomores, were given seats in the third and fourth rows where we sat and looked the room over to make sure every-thing was as it should be. Only eleven of the students who were wiih us at the end of the Freshman year returned, but two joined us making thirleen Sophomores, _ It was a year of hard work in Caesar, French History, Geometry and English Literature, and the year passed without and event of special mention. At the beginning of the term of 1903-04 ten of the former class returned. three having withdrawn. One joined us making eleven, for the junior year. This proved to bea very event- ful year as class spirit was very high and all the classes organized. We elected Maud Harrison, president; Rosamond MclIntyre, treasures; and Drusilla Baker, secretary. During this year our class showed its spirit by giving a party to the three other classes and faculty. This proved so popular that the other classes also tried their hand at the entertaining before the end of the year, but none seemed to be so much enjoyed as the first given by the juniors. Although busily occu- (Ogee eel And et =_ Ninteen Hundred Five. MOCK WEDDING AT HIGH SCHOOL Oct. 7, 1904 CH.

This year the promised Tennis courts were laid—one for each class—and many friendly contests were fought out there. This year the Senior class pub- lished an annual which they called The Star, and it was a foregone conclusion that our class would also publish one the next year. After another three months vacalion, ten of us met at the High school building as Seniors and commenced the most eventful and important year’s work of our high school course, for at its end we would receive our “sheep-skins for which we had struggled so hard. This year we found anew teacher, Mrs. Leasure, who took Miss Hodge’s place. At the beginning of the term, after many stormy sessions, Jesse Shull was elected presi- dent; Rosamond Mclntyre, secretary; Bessie Kinsey, treasurer, and Guy West editor of the Star with Maud Harrison, Rosamond McIntyre and Ray Thomas as assistants. Shortly after the opening of school the three upper classes united in giving a reception to the Freshmen. This class was so large that it was necessary for it to be seated in the west room in charge of Mrs. Leasure. Soon after the reception the freshmen gave a party to the upper classes and faculty which was very much enjoyed. Then everything was quiet until toward the close of school the Juniors gave a banquet to the Seniors which was very enjoyable and will serve as a pleasant re- minder of our Senior year. And now, that our happy high school course is ended, we look back over the past four years and recognize the fact that we are one of the most remarkable, if not the most remarkable of all the classes ever graduated from the Auburn High school. Although not greatest in num- bers—there have been three larger—there has been no other class with an equal number of boys and girls. No class but that of '05 ever attempted to introduce the methods before spoken of. Our class was the first to give those highly enjoyable parties. The sum total of our ages is one hundred eighty five, and of our weights is one thousand twelve hundred sixty, making our average age eighteen and one half and our average weight one hundred twenty six. And do you not think that a class which has maintained itself so brilliantly though high school will also make its mark in the world?

When they come true I believe in them, When the come false | don’t believe in them, —Longfellow, It was a midnight, strange, mystic hour, when the veil between the shadowy present and the eternal future grows dim, | slept and had a dream which was not all a dream; it seemed more like a revelation, Me thought I was in a very beautiful city, Every thing seemed stange at first but presently | began to see familiar objects, the old M. E, church, the dear old High School building, the Modern Buggy factory and others, all of which had grown grey with age. I looked for the old court house, fully expecting that it had survived the ravages of time, but in this | was dissappointed, for a beautiful structure of blue and red granite, stood in its place. Of course you all know (from the hearing of former class prophicies) that Auburn had grown to be a very large city, and that all the surrounding towns were within her limits. Jt was a beautiful city, up-to-date in every respect, It had the most perfect lighting system I had ever seen, which, as I learned, had been de- signed and constructed by my old chum, C, Raymond Thomas, After leaving high school, he took a four years course in electrical enginearing, and was then appointed city electrician, which position he has always kept. He married his first and only love, Velma Suman, They have a beautiful home in one of the supberbs, and as Ray is such an inventive genius, everything around the house is run by electricity, Even the cradle is rocked by an electrical device. Ray looked so funny in a mustache and chin-whiskers, the color of which was a cross between terra cotta and old gold. 1 didn’t think they were very becoming, but Velma thought that they were just lovely. You know we always thought that Jesse would he an electrician too, but his father wanted him to be a farmer, and so he spent two years in an agricultural college. He graduated from there a full-fledged farmer, having had both the practical and theoretical knowledge. He bought a farm near the old homestead, and married his old sweetheart, Joy Shutt, who by the way, was the only one of '04 that went back on her spinster vows. He took Joy home, and made a place in his heart for her and cherished her Then she sang to h im when he was working in the furrow. Their country home was beautiful and as we sat on the porch talking, a black-haired chap, about ten years old, came out of the kitchen door, eating a huge section of pie. He looked so much like Jesse did thirty years ago, that I burst out Walter Kelley Maud Harrison Paul Krider Leo Scott William Hebel ORCHESTRA Miss Hoffman, Director Grace Harrison llif Brown, pianoist LeRoy Fink Marie Harrison Waldo Seiler Chalmer Weaver a Otho LS ee aall es; ‘OAl.J Peipunpy uaajul ? ‘G-H Salwar = Ninteen Hundred Five. laughing. Joy said, Harry I have the best husband that ever lived, and Jesse jr. is a darling little fellow; but Oh I do get so tired baking pies. After Anna left school she discovered that she possessed great inventive genius. Her in- ventions were largely for the comfort and convenience of her own sex. Her last and greatest was a rotary kettle scraper. One simply placed the machine in a kettle, pressed a button and in less time than I can tell about it the kettle was cleaned. It was so constructed that it would ex- pand or contract, to fit any kettle. She certainly has been a great benefactress to womankind and no doubt some day her statue will be placed in the Hall of Fame. Anna never married, not because she had no chances, but as she said, because she had no time to bother with a husband. Besse Kinsey taught school for several years, and then married her old school-mate Jason Sebert, who had become a violinist of great renown. After their marriage, Jason discovered that his wife possessed a wonderful voice, and to please her husband, Mrs. Sebert carefully cul- tivated it, both at home and abroad. Now she travels with him and is equally as famous as he. They have traveled all over Europe, and are great favorites of many of the crowned heads of that continent, especially of President Tolstoi of Russia. Druie taught music for several years after leaving school, and was very successful, but be- came discouraged because she could not make money enough to support a husband as it was a hobby of hers that women should never marry until they were able to support a husband. The city had erected a fine building in the old school park, for Kindergarten purposes and Druie was made superintendent with a generous salary. She had at last found her mission, and was suc- ceeding splendidly. She had grown quite stout, was just as jolly as ever, and in fact was a very pleasing specimen of the bachlor maid. She is now abunbantly able to to support a husband but they don’t come around. After finishing school Guy changed his mind in regard to entering the medical profession and concluded he would try farming, as his father had bought him a very fine farm near the city. While spending his vacations on his father’s farm near Oberlin, Maude too, had acquired a taste for rural life, and so they were married and went to work with a will to beautify their home and to make money. They conducted their farm in accordance with the most approved scientific methods, and they made it pay. They have a fine dairy, which Maude personally superintends, the products of which are noted far and wide. Guy gives his attention to fine poultry, Belgain hares and squabs. They supply the leading hotel of the city with their farm luxuries, which have given this hotel an enviable reputation throughout the state. I would like. to have eaten some of their yellow-leged chickens, but they were so delighted to see me, that I guess they forgot to ask me to remain to dinner. You all know what Rosamond’s aspirations are, so you will be surprised as | was, to find hereafter a lapse of twenty-five years, in the Salvation Army. After leaving high school, she attended dramatic schcol for some time, and then went on the stage. After a few years she tired of the glow cf the fcot-lights, and dicided to seek elsewhere for her life’s mission, for of course she never married, as she always did maintain that a woman with a career should never marry. While visiting friends in Chicago, she became interested in the work of the Army, joined its ranks and did effective service SGD Er dA i ee NN itcen tlundred Five. as a slum worker. She soon attained to the rank of captain, and is familiarly known through- out the army, as “Little Captain Mac”. Her blue poke-bonnet and uniform is very becoming to her, Dorsey always wanted to be a farmer, while his father thought he ought to be a doctor, so they conpromised, and he took four years course in Osteopathy. He came home with his mns- cles splendidly developed, hung out his shingle in the old town (and of course married Vera, the idol of his heart),and soon had a very flourishing practice, His patiants hustled around lively to get well, for fear he will rob them to death. He has a beautiful home in the suburbs, with sev- eral acres of ground attached, and when he is1’t attending to his patients, you will find him “be- hind the hoe.” He takes great pride in his beautiful lawn, flower beds, gardens, etc., and does a great deal of the work himself. Dorsey accumulated a great deal of money, and is very gen- erous. He has built a home where old and worn out may receive good treatment and careful medical attention, free of charge. They had one of the cutest, curly-haired, blue-eyed little boys I had ever seen. I was so glad, even in my dreams, to see that so many of the members of ‘05 had remarried in or near the dear old town, and were so successful in their life-work, I suppose of course that before my dream ended, I would know someting of my own future, for | was very anxious to know what I would be doing, and just how I would look in a quarter of a century from now, but I was suddenly awaken by the shrill scream of the fire-whistle, and my dream was ended. Now if you want to know my future, just go to sleep, and dream it out yourselves. “SENIORS.” GAE S$ TA Ro ———-Ninteen Hundred Five. JUNIOR ESSAY BY VELMA SUMAN. AN INDEPENDENT WOMAN — - appeals to me and it don’t to you girls,” said Rachel, the smallest of a group of girls, throwing back her head with all the dignity and pride she could pos- sibly command. The girls, Juniors and Seniors of the Auburn High School, waiting on the cam- pus for the bell to ring, that would call them from the bright May sunshine to book and study, were discussing the advisability of a woman entering a professional life. “Do you intend to enter a profession?” asked Carrie, a little Junior. “Yes, | do, and I don’t intend to give it up,” answered Rachel, who was a Senior, about to leave the dear school days and face the great world. “And yet you said you thought a professional woman had no place in a home.” “ say again I don’t think she has any right to try to make a home, for she can't do it right and go on with her profession.

A woman sat by the window of a COZY little sitting room, one bright spring evening, her head leaning on her hand. The window was open and the sweet spring air filled the room, but the woman was unconscious of her surroundings, for she was reviewing the past. At a table sat an elderly woman writing busily. The woman at the window sighed wearily and the other look- 66 Ww: do you think a profession advisable?” ‘“‘Simply because a professional life ed up from her writing. “What is it, Rachel?” “Oh, I've been thinking of the old days in Auburn, when I was a high school girl.” “Tell me about them, can’t you?” “| was thinking of a day, ten years ago this spring.

I can’t tell you of the conversation, but | remember that I said I was going to enter a profession and that I would live a happy and independent Bachelor girl, to the end of my days.” ‘You are not going to go back on it now, are you?” “Oh, no, only I was just wondering whether I have been as happy, with all my indepen- dence, as the other girls, who all have homes of their own. After all I haven’t been so indepen- dent. I have been a slave to my profession and it has not been as pleasant as | thought it would be.” “| really believe you are going to give it up.” “No I won't, but I do get tired sometimes, and lonely too, when | think that I am alone in the world. I think sometimes of what I once heard a lady say, who was in the same pozition as myself,” “What was that?” “She said, ‘it was not what one might think it was, to go through life with no one to depend on but yourself,’ and I have just about come to the same conclusion.” The elder woman, glancing out the door, saw a young man coming up the walk and said smilingly, “I thought as you do once, but the time came when I changed my mind, and so will you, when the right person comes along,” and admitting the young man she left Rachel to enter- tain her caller alone. He came in and took a chair near the window by Rachel. She wondered why he was so thoughtful, and sometimes seemed scarcely to hear what she said. Suddenly taking her hand, which lay on the arm of her chair, he said, “Rachel, I have come to tell you something.” She glanced up quickly, as he spoke her name thus for the first time, then dropped her eyes as they met his. He told the old, old story that is always new; the story of his love. Rachel listened in silence. When he ceased speaking she sat with bowed head, wondering why the beauty of the story and the tenderness and pleading in his voice thrilled her so. She had never thought it possible for her. He leaned towards her. “Speak to me Rachel. Don’t you love me?” She raised her head. “I don’t know. I like and respect you, but as for loving you, | have never thought I could love anyone. | have loved my profession and it is almost a part of me. | won't give it up.” “You need not, | would not ask you to.” “Yes, but if I listened to you, I, would, for I don’t believe it would be nght for me to go on with it, if | was your wife.” He started to speak, but she stopped him, “Don’t! It is useless for you to plead, for I have said | would not give it up, and as your wife I would not go on with it.” “Ts this your final annswer? May | not hope that you will change your mind sometime?” “Leave me now. Ina year you may come back if you wish.” When he was gone Rachel wondered how she had resisted such a noble specimen of man- 2 Jeb AY IE LIN — Ninteen Hundred Five.

She half wished he would come back, for she knew, deep down in her heart, that she loved him, She had a hard struggle that year with her pride and her love, She was too proud to give up her indepenence easily, and when the year was gone, the day that brought him to her side again found her still undecided. He came one beautiful evening in May, hoping to win from her the answer he so longed to hear. She stood by the window wondering whether he would come back, The door was open and so he walked up to her and slipping his arm around her said, “Rachel, | have come for my answer.” She looked up startled, and joy and surprise overcame her. We will not intrude on the moments that followed, the sweetest and most sacred of their lives, There in the gathering gloom of the sweet May evening, Rachel surrendered, for she realized at last, that the nght one had come. With herself she surrendered her profession, for she had chosen a better and did not care for the old one. Cupid’s arrows had been true, and this Independent Woman, surrendered herself and her profession to the little God of Love.

Sophomore Essay yy BY HELEN LAMSON .. LHAT TIRED FEELING... This may seem a very queer subject for an essay, but as we experience it in school as often as elsewhere | think it might be discussed there. It is quite a familiar phrase, being seen time and again on advertisements, one of which tells us that Hood's Sarsaparilla if good for that tired feeling. I think Mr. Tyner ought to dose each student with a large spoonful about once or twice a day. At the beginning of spring a disease, if disease it may be called, comes over us, lessening our vitality and ability to work, which is known by the name of Spring Fever, only a synonym for the tired feeling. We are apt to experience it when Mr. Tyner announces There are some in the room who are not at work. [t comes to the students also as they breathe a sigh of relief after the intense strain caused by an unusually long lecture on conduct given by our dear teachers. The words, Oh, I'm so tired, so very tired. Conversation always tires me, would fit in very ap- propriately just then. It seems to me that a tired feeling effects our opening exercises, especially when singing those grand old songs, Just Before the Battle Mother, Tramp, Tramp, etc. A seeming tiredness comes to the one at the board explaining a problem in Geometry when suddenly he stops, seems over- come and sometimes has to have Mr. Tyner give him a fresh start. The same sensation comes to those who are summoned to the office for some misdemeanor. They seem so tired that their, feet can hardly be dragged along. In fact, there seems to be a hesitancy about the whole person which is only that tired feeling you know. It seems as if our beloved teachers get it also, once in a while, for Mr. Tyner sometimes makes the remark, I am just about tired of telling some of you to get busy. And Mrs. Leasure says I am getting tired of telling you boys to behave. Following another line of thought, that tired feeling comes to me (and | suppose there are others) when I am awakened from a peaceful doze in the morning by hearing a voice telling me, It is time to get up. Further we know that a boy is invariably tired when his mother wants him to bring in wood and a girl is, when she is requested to wash dishes. And I am sure that my gentle reader is affected by the aforesaid feeling by this time, so out of mercy to him, I will close. GG i ne SS Organized Jan. 22, 1905. Recognized by Faculty Jan. 26, 1905.

The Seniors, Juniors, And Sophomores all— Thought they would give The Freshmen, a ball. For a long time back, They had thought of the thing And finally decided False suits to bring. Each one had clothes Of a different kind; Some were homely enough To awaken the blind. Some dressed as farmers And took the part well, Their names, while masqued No one could tell. Some were soldiers, They were out of sight. Others were colored As black as night. Girls, dressed as old women— They naturally would— Without any exceptions They did pretty good. Some of the ladies Dressed as girls, Short dresses and slippers, And their hair in curls. One boy took a fashion And dressed like a preacher, Long coat and plug hat Were his main features. I can’t discribe all— These facts were not half! But one look at them Would cause a good laugh. Of course they had A sheep skin band, Which was always on deck When fun, was at hand. Young men, old men Old women, and girls, These cut great circles, In all of the whirl. Of course the faculty We ask to come, And on the next day They were all on the bum. There was music of all kinds, From up stairs to down; And with all of this racket Here, no one could frown. G-HeE Sia A R= And there was a wedding, Which occurred quite late, But for all of this, The noise didn’t abate. We were entertained As the night advanced, By all other games But nobody danced. And the fortune-teller Above all this roar, Would tell all that happened And a little bit more. Above all the racket We heard the call pies, And all were excited By the sound of these cries. So pie was the first course, That was served to the crowd, And the noise at this time Was not quite so loud. -Ninteen Hundred Five, __. And after this, came A nice little lunch, And they had a plenty For the whole of the bunch, By the time that each one, Had emptied his plate, 'Twas time departing For the hour was late, And as each one departed He said to himself, That the memory of this night Would not go on the shelf, So thanks to the Seniors, Juniors, and all, For years to come, We'll remember this Ball.

But the team of 1904, the pride of the students, without doubt is the best that ever represented the H. S. The team being made up of strictly H. S. students who wanted our team to rank among the best. The way they played showed they were going to be placed at the head. The showing made was due to good team work and good feeling among the members.

JENN Last year our School Board gave the students of the High School, ground to fix Tennis Courts on. It was understood that these Courts were especially for the girls and that they be- longed to the girls at all times, as the girls had no other atheletic sport. The boys have no doubt forgotten about these conditions, as at all hours the three Courts are occupied by Seniors, Juniors and Sophomores, and the girls not allowed to play. Neverthe- less many of our girls have become proficient players.

BASE BALL ce ay Xe yo: Our High School Base Ball team has in it the making of one of the strongest High School teams in the state, but, the boys do not recognize the fact that they must practice as hard in Base Ball if not harder than in Foot Ball. We have a pitcher that cannot be beat by any organized High School in the State. But nevertheless the boys will not practice and support him. In the Defiance game he fanned 13 men out of 23 which is a record very few High School pitchers have attained. There are some players that should be highly praised for their work. The first base-man, short-stop and center fielder, who practice untireingly and have tried in all games to support the pitcher. The line up is as follows: Don Sprott, Left Field. Fred Hoffman, C.

To Our Advertisers From thé advertisements which appear in this book, the students, patrons and friends of the Auburn High school may be able to tell what business men are interested in our high school and the success of educational enterprises. Breathes there a man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said— My trade of late is getting bad, I'll try another .ten-inch ad. If there should be, go mark him well, No bank account for him shall swell, No angels guard the golden stair To welcome home a millionaire. The man who does not care for trade, By local line, or ad displayed, Cares more for rest than worldly gain, And patronage gives him pain. Step lightly, fri ends! Let no rude sound Disturb his solitude profound, And let him rest in calm repose, Unsought except by men he owes. And when he dies, go plant him deep, That naught may break his dreamless sleep And that the world may know its loss, Place on his grave a wreath of moss, And on a stone, Below here lies A chump who wouldn't advertise.

Oh, no, my son, you bet your life, He’s not so very slow, For when his shoulders to the wheel, The cart is bound to go.” llif Brown serves free lunch at her desk at all hours of the day. N.B. Flies included. NELLIE When Nellie wears her garden hat, The flowers come out to see; But no rose in all her garden; Is half as sweet as she. When Nellie wears her garden hat, Sir Cupid sits upon it; But then Sir Cupid is always there, If it be hat or bonnet. Chewing the rag is slang you should say masticating the fabric. The rose is red, The violets blue; The buggy upset, And George did too. 76 Jolla: SS Jl AVI Re = Ninteen Hundred Five. In Loting Remembrance n Chose Who Hale Died Laughing at Our Inkes A.
