O all our gentle readers: You'l1 surely be so kind, When'er you find a thing that's wrong, please say it doesn't mind For we, you know, are very young and somewhat unprepared To have our book with other books so searchingly compared. So now you know the reason why We're very much at sea, So much,Iin fact, we don't quite know how this book ought to be. Perhaps we're undeserving of praise however slight, Though hard we strove to win success,-yes, strove with all our might. We fear that in the hurry of editorial cares We've fallen short of glory by groping on the stairs. To those who kindly aided by helping in our work We wish to show our heartfelt thanks, though never did we shirk. Herewith our course is endedg with joy do we depart, For well we know the coming Board is very, very smart. JULIUS RALPH ROGERS. LOUIS ZALMON GREEN. ORSON UHOMMIDIEU BRITTON. DANA BIGELOW HINMAN.

So we'll hie to other fountains, College wells so clear and deep, While the teachers dread the parting, And the little juniors weep. But before we leave forever, High School work and High School fun, Ninety-seven'll just remind you What l1er members wise have done. We have organized the juniors, We have taught their little feet How to take their toddling footsteps I., Down life's long and narrow street. We have had a skating party, And the juniors begged to go, So they skated on behind us- . fAren't those junior people slow lj We have had some class receptions, Had some mental sleighrides too, In our minds wie heard the sleigh-bells, Almost smelled the oyster stew. We decided on a motto, And when hard exams drew near Teachers sweetly whispered to us, Ninety-seven, Persevere ! Arbor Day a tree we planted, V When we yelled our chosen yell. What hereafter we'1laccomp1ish, Time and Time alone, will tell. CLASS OF NINETY-SEVEN-GROUP NO. 2 CLASS WILLIAM H. MARLAND, ELIZABETH BURROWS, - EDWIN J.

The sunshine gladly stole between The softly undulating limbs, From every blade and leaf arose The myriad insect hymns. A brook ran murmuring beneath The grateful twilight of the trees, Where from the dripping pebbles swelled A beech's mossy knees. M. LEGARI-1. CLASS OF NINETY-EIGHT-GROUP N0 CLASS OF NINETY-EIGI-I T. The junior Class of B. C. Il. S. was organized November iz, 1896. It was then that the election of othcers took place, resulting : President, Gus VanWormerg First Vice-President, Lucia B. Mussong Second Vice- President, Roland llarrisong Secretary, Caroline E. Manng Treasurer, Halbert Lacey, and then for the first time did the seniors show a broth- erly interest in the class of ninety-eight. They tried to direct the pro- ceedings in Number Five from the other side of the transom: but their good intentions were shortly put to flight by the window stick. During the winter the seniors so far forgot their dignity as to pro- pose a joint skating party. Notwithstanding the fact that the ice was not in the best possible condition, and that ginger cookies were scarce, the party was a success. There was a rumor abroad that a certain few ot' the ninety-seven boys and also some of the ninety-eight girls wanted another skating party right away, but the warmth of their enthusiasm melted the ice. The event of the year to which the class of ninety-eight looks back with the greatest pleasure, is the delightful reception that Mr. Wales gave the class. Again our older brothers took an active part in the evening's entertainment. Quite unexpectedly the guests were received by a committee out-doors. And what a warm reception! O! the sere- nades! They sang until their voices were hoarse, and as they departed'- Say an revoir! but not good-bye - came iioating back. But it was good-byeg and the juniors, glorious in their green and white, watched the departure with deep regret. Then the arbutus party, the seniors wanted that a joint affair too, but-the juniors didn't. The president enjoyed himself enough for all the absent members, that day. The next Monday, the seniors, with sun-burned faces and scratched hands, but with no arbutus, longingly eyed the pink and white clusters that the juniors wore. Many other good times we have had, and we go on our way rejoic- ing that we have atleast one more year in our beloved B. C. H. S. Where, O! where are the jolly juniors ? Safe, now, in the senior class. CLASS OF NINETY-EIGHT-GROUP NO CLASS OFFICERS. AUGUSTUS VANWORMER, Preszkient LUCIA MUSSON, l'?b'.v! Vzke-Pre.vz?!erzl Serena' Vzke-Pre.vz2t'efz! ROLAND R.

Svcrelary T reaxurer CLASS OF NINETY-NINE Listen, gentle reader, listen To a story I would tell you,- To a song that I would sing you, In a light and joyous meter, Of a class of mighty scholars Who, from morning until nighfall, Dig and delve in mines of knowledge To obtain some germ of learningg Pore o'er books whose colored covers Will suggest the author's surnameg Grub in Greek and Latin grammars, Or from Ceesar's charming pages Read about his wars and battles, Struggle o'er some vexing problem Found in Wentworth's much-loved volume, Or without the aid of others, Wrapped in thought and meditation, Work out some perplexing extra. Work away! my faithful classmates, Great success shall crown your labors. For we have among our number Many men of future greatness, Many men, who by their genius Shall help on the march of progress, Shall advance our Great Republic Till this strong and mighty Union Shall stand forth without a rival. Yes, I see among your faces Those, who in the coming cycle Shall bring credit on their teachers. Lawyers, doctors, merchants, bankers, Advocates of Woman's Suffrage Shall from out among my classmates Blossom into future greatness. But also! there's one thing lacking, One thing that is not supplied us From this class of mighty scholars, 'Tis a pitiful condition That a class with such bright prospects, That a class of so much talent Cannot furnish us a poet.

COn the Third Floor-J LTHOUGH it was with much sorrow that we learned, last fall, of the abduction of the Rostrum Carpet, we console ourselves with the fact that the piano still remains with us. This priceless antiquity, being one of the few remaining relics of our school, should be kept under a case 3 but we must confess thatitis shamcfully abused before our very eyes. It was even tuned last year, but, thanks to our Board of Education, it will not again be subjected to this terrible or- deal. Yet the pupils are allowed to lean on it, to sz? on it fon rare oc- casionsj, and even to PLAY on it. We trust that during the coming year our Board of Education will take proper steps to have this ancient in- strument preserved for future generations. CLASS OF NINTEEN HUNDRED. To give even a brief history of this class and in any way do justice to its members would require several volumes, so all pupils who miss their names will understand that it is not an intentional slight. Among the other interesting and yet sad features of the parting of the Fresh- man Class from the ninth room. will be the tearing away of some old land-marks. By land-marks I mean Fred. Mitchell, Edwin Houghton and others. IE my memory serves me correctly these same gentlemen have been anchored in the room for the past four years, and strangers coming into our room would be shown these marks and told that they were one of the sights of the school. But all credit to the class of IQOO, who have made themselves so agreeable that these gentlemen wish to go with them. Miss Clara Kerr, a teacher whom every body liked and respected, had to leave on account of sickness in her family, Miss Port taking her place. Prof. Bump, another welcome addition, has ingratiated himself into the boys' favor by his fairness, and general interest in athletics. But to return to the pupilsg among our class may be found some fine athletic material. Take L. VanNostrand qcommonly known as Smuttyj. Smutty has foot-ball talent and hair to burn and could make a quarter-back instead of a draw-back, as somebody said. Also Harry Lake, now Harry has speed on a wheel going down grade, and, well- he's fairly 'good on the level. He has not had the fortune to get a place in any of his races yet, due in some cases to accidents and in others to the loss of his cork. But the ladies-it would take a Longfellow Qand the writer is shortl to do them justice. When Miss Fancher and Miss Green ambulate down the street every one looks up, they can't help it as Miss Fancher can give Ollie C. a run for height. Miss VanWormer has undergone a remarkable change In fact during the latter portion of the year she would not even look towards the boys' side of the roomg well, joe is all right. But we must close, and all agree that- Poets have written and often told Of famous classes young and old, But the newest one to join the fold Is The Class of Ninteen Hundred. Carrie Acla.

Notwithstanding the remarkable growth which the I-I. S C. has enjoyed in preceding years, this year appears to have been the most successful in the history of the Club A large number of new members have been enrolled and they all have proved that they have ability as dcbators. The subjects debated have been unusually interestingg many of them of public importance. We believe that it is beneficial to dis- cuss political subjects, because the object of a debating society is to get young men in the habit of thinking about the welfare of the State, Although the young mind is in most cases unable to go to the bottom of national questions, still those who thoroughly look up a debate. digest many facts which tend to make them broader in their views. Another great benefit which this club affords to its members is that it gives them the opportunity to acquire confidence in themselves. However, the Club is not entirely confined to debating, for it is customary to every year hold a banquet, and this year has not been an exception. Those who are members of a debating club are granted privileges, the benefits of which are not easily estimated. Any one who has gradu- ated from a High School without being a member of a debating society has not taken advantage of a most important opportunity. HIGH SCHOOL LITERARY SOCIETY. The consideration and discussion of American authors and their works has been the study of the High School Literary Society, during the past school year. The society has received a number of new membersg and has maintained its high standard of work. During the year the Friday Club was challenged to a debate by the Literary Society, and the choice of sides was conceded to the former, the latter choosing the subject: ' Resolved, That Party Allegiance is Preferable to Independent Voting, was the question given, and the affirmative was taken by the Friday Club. The negative side won after a close contest. The third annual Public of the society was held March twenty-ninth. Selections, songs and impersonations from standard American writers were given. The evening was thoroughly enjoyed and will be remembered with pleasure by all present. The society has received the hearty support of its members, and deserves to be loyally upheld in the coming year. ALPHA ZETA . With the close of this school year will end one of the most success- ful years Gamma Chapter has yet seen. The membership at the begin- ning of the year was nine, and since that time the Chapter has been strengthened by the addition of seven more students. The regular meetings have been well attended by all the active members, and have been made immensely interesting by the presence of many of the honorary members. The anniversary of our Chapter was properly observed, the programme consisting of music, recitations and addresses was enjoyed by all, and later a pleasing repast was served. Many evenings have been most pleasantly passed with the Theta Sigma girls. On the 29th and 30th of April the State Fraternity convened with Gamma. This convention proved to be a success in every way. At this time it was decided to hold the next convention with Epsilon Chap- ter at Elmira. In the election of oliicers for the ensuing year Gamma had the good fortune to obtain the Second Vice-President of the Frater- nity and one member of the Executive Committee. Although this year's class will take away nine of the active members, still we feel sure that those in whose hands the affairs of the Chapter will be laid are fitted in every way to keep up the reputation Gamma has previously made. - HIGH SCHOOL DEBATING CLUB. On the zqth of November, 1882, seventeen young men of the High School organized the first debating club in the school-the H. S. D. C. The club work, taken up in addition to the regular study, and looked upon with disfavor by the Board of Education, gradually obtained a strong foot-hold in the school. Since that time the club has held weekly debates. This year the work has been very successful, some extemporaneous debates having been held in the fall. . One feature of the work has been the critic's report. This oiiicer has criticised each speaker separately, mentioning the weak and the strong points of his debate. During the year, together with political subjects, the current topics have been discussed. One of the most interesting debates was in rc- gard to the appointing of the School Board by the Mayor. Nor have we lacked social recreation. On Washington's Birthday, in company with our sister society, the Literary Club, we banqueted at the Crandall. It is hoped that the clubs may hold a banquet yearly on this date. A Later in the year the Literary Club entertained us at the home of Miss Mary DeGraw. The evening was passed most pleasantly. FRIDAY CLUB. The Friday Club is still in its youth, yet it has made a good start, and we may safely say that now it is one of the very best of the school societies. When the club was organized it was intended for only ninth and tenth grade students, but since then it has been changed and now any girl of good moral character is eligible to membership. During the past year the membership roll has been increased considerably, The work of the club is purely literary, its aim being to make the members better acquainted with best literature. This year the authors Lowell, Bryant, Whittier, Longfellow. Holmes, Irving and Mark Twain have been studied. Some work in debating has also been done, and the club has enjoyed as well as profited by a short talk by Dr. Leonard, and one by Miss Osgood also. The most important event of the year has been the debate with the Ladies' Literary Society. It is hoped to make our club even still better in the coming year. AGASSIZ ASSOCIATION. JOHN IIURROUGIIS CHAP1 ER. To stimulate the students' interest in scientific study and investi- gation, to bring him into closer contact with his lovely neighbors of field and forest, and with all the charming beauties and ennobling in- fluences of nature, are the main purposes of the three hundred scientific societies throughout the land, taking their name from that of the illus- trious Louis Agassiz. ' That societies of this character find a proper place, that they are not only valuable and desirable, but necessary in the high schools are statements hardly capable of doubt or dispute. As in debating and literary clubs is first born that love for and that facility of independent thinking and investigation along political and literary lines, so in scien- tific societies is first developed and fostered that more thorough appre- ciation of the value and desirability of original scientific study. To compass this, the Agassiz Society has for its main purpose and in order to accomplish it, we solicit for the ensuing year the hearty support and co-operation and the membership of all students who are in sympathy with the objects of our club. Besides our public this year, which was a successful aEair and well attended, we have inaugurated a system of lectures on interesting scientific subjects by prominent thinkers and specialists of our city, a plan which we hope to continue the succeeding year on a much larger and more systematic scale than heretofore. ' THETA SIGMA. In this, the fourth year of the Gamma Chapter of the Theta Sigma, the society has accomplished a great deal, although we greatly miss many of our members who entered college last fall. Among these are: Mabel Carver and Cora Howling at Smith, Nellie Rogers at Western Reserve, Lucy Mitchell at the Oswego Normal School, Jessie johnson at Miss Smallwood's School, in Washington, Maritta Sisson at Lasell. We have spent many pleasant evenings with our Alpha Zeta broth- ers, and especially enjoyed a day on House's Hill. The yearly entertainment ol' the Beta Chapter, at Schenectady, was attended by two of our members. It was one round of enjoyment, and our only regret was that the distance deprives us of tl1e pleasure of meeting with our sisters oftener. The annual convention will beheld in this city, june twenty-first and twenty-second. These reunions increase and foster the sisterly spirit among us, and The ties of love that bind ns grow stronger year by year. With no serious regrets for the past, partially contented with the present, we hope that our best efforts are in the fntnrc. . 7' 'W ,fl . 7-,KA 1 . , ll or fn, l 77 71, ..

In this matter-of-fact world everything depends upon achievement. The supreme test in any undertaking is the result. The business man labors for profit, and the professional man works for success. It is proper for us, therefore, at stated times to take an inventory and deter- mine as nearly as possible what the net result of our effort has been. Although it is too early to say with any degree of certaintywhat is the value of the work done in the Barlow School during the past year, yet we feel that on the whole the result is successful. Classes have been conducted in constructive drawing. sewing, cooking and wood- working. A large number of pupils have been enrolledg in fact at times ap- plicants were denied admission from lack of accommodations, It is usually the misfortune of manual training that on its introduction it attracts a considerable number of undesirable students, and the Barlow School has proved no exception. Deficient and indolent students, and those who are always ready to take up something new rushed into the BARLOW SCHOOL OF INDUSTRIAL ARTS, classes. It is accordingly not surprising that many were dropped from the rolls when they discovered that the Barlow School meant work, and not entertainment or physical culture, Others who were already carry- ing a full amount of work made the mistake of undertaking to do manual training in addition, and consequently after a few trials were obliged to drop. However, there were left a goodly number of earnest, industrious students, and it is from these that we have obtained gratify- ing results. The character and extent of the work done have justified all ex- pectations. Besides the acquisition of much practical information, students have shown a marked improvement in their habits and method of work. Skill has been developed and much has been accomplished in training students to work systematically and independently. The power gained through the effort put forth in the solution of certain problems will form a basis for the mastery of many difficulties in life's work. There must needs be much growth and development in the work of the Barlow School, but there can be no doubt that manual training has taken deep root and will form an important factor in the lives of many who are yet to come within its influence. It is likely that several additional instructors will be needed next year. Classes will be formed in moulding and various kinds of iron work. There is general regret that Professor Howe, who has so suc- cessfully conducted the school for the past year, will not remain next year. He has accepted the principalship of the new Manual Training School at Hartford, Conn., at a considerably larger salary than he re- ceived here. Miss Margaret Hedden has also accepted a position in the same school at nearly twice the salary she was paid here. It will not be easy to secure two instructors as capable as Professor Howe and Miss Hedden. ATHLETICS. Athletics in the High School are far ahead of what they were several years ago, indeed, we may safely say that this last year has been the most successful year in athletics that the school has ever seen. Our Athletic Association is composed almost entirely of the best fel lows in the school, and it has come to be looked upon as one of the very best of the school societies. An advisory committee, consisting of Dr. Albert Leonard, Fred A. Bump, Fred Welsh, Roy Gunnison, james Q. Gulnac, LeRoy J. Weed, Guthrie Smith and John O. McCall, has been added to the association. Indeed, all the athetics of the school are under the direct management of the committee. 'Last fall our foot-ball team was a winner. For the first time in the history of the school we had a team composed wholly of high school HIGH SCHOOL TRACK TEAM .144 HIGH SCHOOL FOOT-BALL TEAM students. The team did most excellent work, in fact it was the first means of bringing our school into a favorable comparison with other schools of the same size. They started in the season uncertain how they would finish, but determined to make the team as strong as possi- ble, and in this they succeeded. On thanksgiving day our team played the B. A. A., ateam averaging fifteen pounds heavier, and their men much older than our boys. Even thus handicapped High School played them a tie game as to points, and ,as to foot-ball they out-played them at every point. Out of eight games played B. C. H. S. won four, tied two and lost two, scoring 116 points to opponents only 54. With the coming of spring, the boys became more interested in track athletics. Early in the season a team was placed in the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium under the direction of Prof. Rex, but it was not until later that the boys began real training. On May 15th our second annual field day was held, and at this meet B. C. H. S. for the first time won first place by scoring more points than any other school. Handsome silver medals were given as first prizes and valuable merchandise as second. ' One week later the team went to Carbondale to compete in a dual meet. When our boys left Binghamton they were uncertain who would win, but after they had scored eighty out of ninety-nine points, they began to realize that almost everything had gone their way. But as the Carbondale paper justly said, though the Binghamton boys were fiushed with victory at every turn yet they behaved themselves like gentlemen, and did not allow their jubilant spirits to get the best of their common sense. The week later, May 29th, our team gained their greatest victory. At the lnterscholastic Meet, held at Ithaca on this date, our boys scored fourteen points, a gain ,of eleven points over that of any previous year. Two records were broken by Binghamton boys. LeRoy J. Weed lowered the record for the 120 yards hurdle from 18 3-5 seconds to I7 4-5 seconds, and james Q. Gulnac ran the Z mile in 2 minutes and 85 seconds, beating the former record of 2 minutes and 9 4-5 seconds. Elliott Marean won second place in the pole vault, while George S. Whitney won a third in the 220 yards hurdle. Orson L'H. Britton would have finished second in the mile run, if he had not fallen about two feet from the tape. This is the first year that High School ever made a favorable showing at the Interscholastic Meet, and our boys can justly feel proud of what they did. Now just a word in regard to next year: You have plenty of material for a strong foot-ball team, if you will only get out and work. The success of last year's team can be laid wholly to the spirit among the players themselves-they went in to ,win and they did win. So with the opening of school next September let all who have any ambition in this direction, try for the team. You have the Advisory Committee back of you and you will have the school and the whole city there too, if you will only do your best. ROASTS. Wz?lz malzke foward none and charzlfyfor all. DR.
