MEMORIAL GLADYS MARTINDALE Mins Gladys Murtindale was born September 14. 1897, at Tonkawa. Oklahoma, and died near Pienele, Montana. July 29, 1915. Gladys entered the Beloit Hitfh school with the '18 class and completed the Freshman year. The following summer she went to Montana to visit with her brother on a ranch, where she met death by accident. She will always be remembered by those who knew her as a sweet, intelligent, happy youmr cirl. CLASS HISTORY N the unique evolution of man as a social being—the class of 1918 has played this far a rather inconspicuous role. Inconspicuous, perhaps, so far as the world is concerned but in the lives of its members these four years of High school life mean and always will stand for the happiest, most carefree period of their lives. The ups and downs, the tears and laughters—while they have meant much to us in the passing; in retrospect they will be a sweet and pleasant dream which passed all too soon. It is difficult to realize now at this commencement time that this brief four years has been but a preparation for what is to come after. If we have been prone, at times, to take the problems of life lightly, and have not allowed our studies to interfere with our High school course or if we have taken life as a glad holiday—we are beginning to realize that duties are ahead of us and that there are ideals and purposes in life worth working and striving for. It is our hope that during this time we have learned the spirit of the poem by Saxe:— In battle or business, whatever the game; In war or in love, ’tis ever the same; In the struggle for power, or scramble for pelf; Let this be your motto, “Rely on yourself.’’ Our Freshman year saw us with an enrollment of eighty-seven. Our officers for this year were: Jay Roberts, president; Ruth Cook, vice president; Doyle Gilbert, secretary; and Hurd Douglass, treasurer. Shortly after the closing of this year we were called upon to mourn the death of one of the most beloved girls of our class, Gladys Martindale. The Sophomore year found us with part of the green worn off and determined to make our class a success, attempting to live up to our motto, “Honor waits at labor’s gate.” Lynn Smith acted as president, Hurd Douglass as vice president, Cecil Ammerman as treasurer, and Hattie Leslie as secretary. By the end of this year we were accustomed to the ways of High school life and were ready for better work in our Junior year. After two strenuous years thirty-five of our number entered B. H. S. to take up the trials of the Junior year. We again elected Jay Roberts as president, Lynn Smith as vice president, and Kenneth Kiniry as secretary, treasurer. At the end of the first semester, we lost one of the most beloved teachers of B. H. S. in the person of Miss Mayme Conroy. Troubles never come singly, so at the end of the second semester we lost a dear friend and councellor, Miss Bess Bozell, our class sponsor. Jay Roberts had proved himself so good an executive and diplomat that we were unwilling to initiate a new candidate for the Senior year, so we elected Jay Roberts, president; Chalmer Fuller, vice president; Nettie Pfaff, secretary; and Harley Reiter, treasurer. Jay Roberts has proved himself a very competent leader, having successfully guided our class as president for three years. It is with deep appreciation and pride in our boys, that we are so well represented “over there,” or in preparatory training schools. John Cochran and Kenneth Kiniry are in France, Ivan Casterline is in the navy, Lynn Smith and Dewitt Wilson are now in training camps. Mr. Oak, our science teacher also enlisted in the balloon corps at Fort Omaha. As our laws are lenient with regard to immigration, we have adopted an open door policy, many foreigners have come from all directions. Phoebe Kaser came from Nebraska and Miss Hutchinson from Lincoln, Nebraska. The villages of Scottsville and Asherville furnished us with Anna Schmeil, Keith Cox, and Grace Roberts. Vernon Pate came from the West, from the town of Esbon. So in the great melting pot of B. H. S. we have united into one body, the graduating class of 1918. In closing, we, the class of 1918, wish to thank our teachers and especially Miss Carpenter and Miss Hutchinson, our class sponsors, for their thoughtful direction and sympathetic counsel during our High school course. May we live up to the ideals which they have set before us and may we become worthy and efficient citizens in this great world democracy which our own brave boys in France are giving their precious lives to procure for us.— Edna Freeman, Hettie Leslie. TO THE BOYS IN KHAKI Lawrence Calvert Lynn Smith John Cochran Ivan Casterline Kenneth Kiniry Wilbur Oak Our Service Flag now shows that five boys of the class of 1918 are doing their part in this great World War for Democracy. How we should honor the lads who have made it possible for us to look forward to a peaceful world, unshaken by murder and war! They went away with the bloom of health upon their cheeks and the spirit of youth in their hearts. They knew no other word than “WIN” and win they must. Their supreme sacrifice will make their names immortal in the history of the school. They are helping to make possible a better world in the future. They have risked life, home, and future happiness that we might enjoy the privileges of peace. Mention should be made of our former science teacher, Mr. W. W. Oak, who is also in the service of his country. CLASS PROPHECY HE Prophetess: “Though the curtain of the future remains drawn, I can see through its filmy fabric and discern unfought fields, unaccomplished deeds, and the unattained successes and failures of mankind. Because of the fact that my vision is more farsighted than that of the average person; I deem it my privilege as well as my duty to cultivate these powers for the help and encouragement of men, that I may warn them of many pitfalls, and encourage them with an occasional hint of success. Life at the present time is grave; and the future as we are approaching it looks utterly dark, yet in the far distance I can distinguish a brilliant light,'which tells me plainly that after this period of confusion is over, a wonderful new life, free, glorious, and happy, will be enjoyed by the people of earth. What meaneth all of this merry rippling laughter? The high pitched voices of youth, the care free tones of innocent children seem to be near me! Hark! It is just outside my door. I will see what is wanted.” (The Prophetess goes to the door to admit a group of students, who are laughing and talking.) The Students: “Oh Prophetess! We heard that you are wise; can look into the future; and can tell us of our successes and our failures! May we come into your den and have our fortunes told?” The Prophetess: “Who may you be so young and so fair; so full of joy and happiness? This world is mourning and for days I have seen nothing but gloom, and have heard nothing but the cries of sorrow and distress.” The Students: “We are members of the Senior class of the Beloit High school. We heard of you, and want you to tell us the future of the class.” The Prophetess: “Quite natural, for the future of youth always looks bright. Sit down, my children, and as I close my eyes and read the messages, ask what questions thou will, they shall be answered.” (The Prophetess gives the students seats, and walks to the opposite side of the stage and faces them. She closes her eyes and begins to receive the vision.) The Prophetess: “The years are passing rapidly! Five! Ten! Fifteen! Be- yond the confusion of swords, cannon, and debris of war I see a handsome soldier, who is leading an army of men. The officer is General Jay Roberts of the United States Army. Among his Command are Captain Chalmer Fuller, Captain George Walsh, and Lieutenant Vernon Pate. General Roberts is located at Fort Beloit, but is on his way to review his troops before President Floyd Volkel of the great republic of the United States. Two men now appear before me: one is Ambassador Paul Rodgers, and Foreign Minister Harley Reiter, who are just returning from the great Belgium Republic, which I see extending from the Swiss boundary to the Baltic Sea.” The Students: “Isn’t that wonderful! Germany must fall! We would like to hear about some of the girls in our class! Are thev not going to do something worth while?” Prophetess: “Much! Much! MY children! Though some of the Senior girls of this year are to take menial positions, many of them will fill offices of trust and of honor. Here I see a certain Miss I eta Brown making a marked success as a poultry rancher: and another, Miss Agnes Cavanaugh successfully managing a sheep farm. In a Conductor’s Uniform there stands Miss Lila Doyle who is running the Interurban Electric Railway cars between Beloit and Solomon Rapids. The Beloit High school is most efficiently conducted by Superintendent Keith Cox, Principal Marguerite Green, and Assistant Principal Frances Byrd. 1 notice that Edna Freeman Cox is one of the chief society belles of the city.” Students: “O wonderful! Wonderful! Tell us more!” The Prophetess: “Very well, my children, I shall proceed. As the mist clears away from my sight, I see Judge Winifred I each and Judge Clara Thiessen, practicing law in New York City. There is also another lawyer there by the name of Judge Clarence Morrell, who by the way has married a lady who was formerly known as Miss Marie Mears. I hear the names of Honorable Nettie Pfaff, and Honorable Marie Eresch called in the United States Senate Chamber. Another message tells me that Postmistress Viola Lyster, and Assistant Postmistress Rita Williams are located in government service at Chicago.” The Students: “How grand, good Prophetess! Go on! Go on! We can hardly wait.” The Prophetess: “Listen, my children. I hear the voice of Mrs. Irene Lowe Reiter, who is on an extension concert trip, and is touring the world. In her company are Miss Lela Wicks, Mrs. Gladys Frank Roberts, Mrs. Helen Hunter Walsh, and Miss Leone Prewett. The scene changes. In the far distance I see the largest military hospital in the world, situated on Cliff Hill at Fort Riley. Among the nurses are: Mrs. Anna Schmeil McMann, Mrs. Josie Graff Conroy, Miss Inez Underhill, Mrs. Marie Noah Roquet, and Mrs. Grace Roberts Rouen. In the head lines of the New York Tribune there appears the names of Reverend Ruth Cook, and Deaconess Florence Roberts, who have just embarked for the jungles of Africa.” Students: “How strange! We never would have thought it.” The Prophetess: “Stranger things than that have happened, my children. The vision now returns. I see Miss Edna Steere, a famous aviatrix; and Miss Hettie Leslie, and Miss Nettie Leslie noted air-women. With the Great Lynn Smith Animal Show, is Miss Phoebe Kaser, who is making herself famous as a tight rope walker. The same show, Mr. Edward Henke and his wife, formerly Miss Ruth Bibler are very efficient Egyptian dancers. Mr. James Widrig and wife, known in earlier years as Miss Delia Knisely are owners and managers of the great Brown Palace Hotel at Beloit, Kansas. Olive Humes is also shown as the world’s famous snake charmer. Let me see! I have almost gone through the class! Oh, yes! There is Mrs. Margaret Summers Fuller who is visiting in the city of Washington at the White House with Mrs. Cecilia Yeager Volkel, wife of President Volkel.” Students: “You are very kind, fair Prophetess to tell us such wonderful things. We must hurry off and tell our classmates of their glorious future. Thanks! Thanks! Good Bye! Good Bye!” (The students run off the stage.) The Prophetess: “How much alike are the children of each generation; and how little they dream of the struggles and duties that lie before them! Though I have fabled some in this prediction to these Seniors, I have told them the truth this far, that the future is bright for them, as it is for all men and women, who are guided by right principles and have faith in God and man. No future is too bright to predict for young Americans; and I hope I have at least raised their ideals, towards which, during the next ten or fifteen years, they may work.”—Written by Phoebe Kaser, Marguerite Green, and Viola Lyster. CLASS SONG DEAR OLD B. H. S. Tune: When I Dream Of Old Erin, I’m Dreaming Of You.” We’re the lads and the lassies of class ’18 And we have for our colors the gold and the green, For in dear old Beloit High we’ve all done our best To hold our class motto high upon life’s crest. We’ll not only make records but also make fame For our dear old Beloit High, we honor her name; Our hearts thrill with courage to strive for success When we dream of Beloit High, dear old B. H. S. Chorus When we dream of Beloit High, dear old B. H. S. And the Seniors of ’18 how they stood the test; We dream of old school days that we loved the best. So farewell old Beloit High, dear old B. H. S. And we think of the Seniors of Class Eighteen The best class Beloit High ever has seen; We can see the old building in memory’s proud eye How it stands there alone by the cedars so high. And we think of the teachers who once taught us there ’Tis those fond recollections brings happiness rare; How the yellow rose blends with the gold and the green The flower and the colors of class ’18 —Delia Knisely. CLASS YELL Banana-split! Orange-peel! Get out of the road for the automobile! HONK! HONK!! SENIORS!!! SOCIAL THE JUNIOR WAR BANQUET OF CLASS ’.8 On May 11th the Juniors gave a war banquet at the High school building in honor of the Seniors of 1917. The halls were prettily decorated with American flags and bunting. Since “The elevator to success was not running,” the guests were obliged to “take the stairs.” After the guests assembled in the upper hall they were escorted to the Physics room where they beheld the natural wonders of the Junior class in the personages of Marie Pagett as fortune teller and Leone Prewett as sleeping beauty, Hurd Douglass as policeman enforced the rule “keep moving” by placing the offenders in the office which served as a calaboose. The guests were then invited to the banquet hall where several Freshman and Sophomore girls served them a dainty war banquet. The presidents of the Junior and Senior classes and Supt. Steen and Mr. Loop gave toasts, with Lynn Smith acting as toastmaster. An interesting program consisting of several musical numbers and readings and “The Family Umbrella” force closed the evening’s successful entertainment. THE SENIOR-JUNIOR RECEPTION OF CLASS ’17 By invitation of the Seniors, the Juniors and faculty met in the old school building on April 27, 1917. After being received in the lower hall, the guests proceeded to the assembly room where they enjoyed an excellent program consisting of musical numbers and a shadow play, accompanied by a reading by Miss Ruth Noah. Returning to the reception hall the Senior girls served light refreshments. The punch bowl was presided over by Sophomore girls. At a late hour the guests departed, thanking the Seniors for the much appreciated entertainment. LITERARY PARTY OF 1918 The Seniors gave their annual reception to the Juniors and faculty on April 26th in the building most familiar to them all. The guests were welcomed rn the lower hall which was artistically decorated with the colors of the two classes and American flags. A Grand March, led by two standard bearers carrying an American and a Senior flag, ended in the auditorium, which was also beautifully decorated with flags of America and the Allies. On the rostrum were three flags and a Liberty bell. An interesting program consisted of a piano solo by Grace Roberts, a vocal solo by Irene Lowe, songs by a girls’ quartet, and boys’ quartet, of the Senior class, readings by Ruth Cook and Phoebe Kaser. a “Faculty Deportment Meeting” farce by members of the Senior class was one of the most pleasing numbers on the program. The program closed with a yell by the class to the Seniors, Juniors, and Faculty. The girls of the entertaining class served coffee, pickles and Red Cross sandwiches at a Liberty booth. After having been served the Senior boys informally initiated the Junior boys by having them ride the goat, which consisted of an electric chair. We are glad to say, these executions were somewhat less serious than those at Sing Sing. The simplicity of dress and decoration in addition to the splendid entertainment caused the reception to be highly in keeping with the Liberty idea and greatly enjoyed by all. JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET On Friday evening, May 10, 1918, the Juniors of B. H. S. entertained the Senior class and the Faculty at a Hoover banquet. The guests assembled in the G. A. R. hall at eight o’clock and were served a delicious three course dinner. After the dinner the guests were entertained by an excellent program. Forrest McMann, President of the Junior class, acted as toastmaster, adding much to the pleasure of the evening by his funny stories and witty sayings. The following is the program which was enjoyed by all present: Hoover Song, . . . . . By all. Reading, “My Boy of Yesterday,” . . Laura Florer. Girls Quartette, “On a Battlefield in France,” and “Nona,” Katharyn Brown, Ruth Baird, Edna Rutterford, Antoinette Ell wart. “The Spring Garden” (Toast to the Seniors), . Mae Cavanaugh. Piano Solo, “Alice,” .... Olive Tilton. “Mustering New Recruits” (Toast to Juniors), . Jay Roberts. Reading, “To My Sister,” . . . Guy Harlow. “War Bread” (Toast to Our Boys With the Colors), Vincent Mitchell. Piano Solo, “Old Black Joe,” Variations, . Louise Knaup. “To the Gardeners” (Toast to the Faculty), . Edna Freeman. The hall was beautifully decorated with flags, the Junior and Senior class colors and lilacs. The place cards were very appropriate, being in the form of Red Cross Nurses for the girls and “Sammies” for the boys. M;9 Friends % ' BELOIT GAZETTE PRINT k:
