Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1924 volume:

ffnrrumrfi P“ work of representing the most worth-while features of our High School life has been far from an easy task. It has called for much expenditure of time and effort, and, often for sacrifice. But the result is not a mere thing of paper and ink. It is a contribution, however slight, to the sum total of good in the world. If it leads to but a few honest, joyous thoughts ;if it helps to bridge the little chasm between youth and age; if it will freshen memories of happy days, it has accomplished its purpose. Youth’s ambitions and desires are forever disguised by banter and light laughter. Beneath a superficial covering lies the true earnestness of the young, striving to attain their ideals. Between the light lines much may be read,—or remain hidden. iiiiHiiiiiiiiiimniimniimj PATRICIA JEAN McILHATTEN jntmbn of tht (11000 of 1941 Her name is Patty Jean The pride of the school is she Ask 11s why we love her— Just look at her and set1!

Probably many of the early settlers learned their 3 R’s in this little red school house. The first term was taught by Alexander McKnight, the grandfather of one of Brookville’s present day druggists. Several years later, in 1838, the Brookville Academy was established. This long, grey building stood on the north-western corner of Jefferson and Barnett Streets. One of the rules that existed at this time was that at nine o’clock the doors should be closed, and all late comers were compelled to go home and stay the remainder of the day. This same rule existed to a late date and many of our worthy citizens may well remember that, thanks to their kind and beloved teacher, Miss Celea Ramsey, they were often pulled through the windows. Another rule was, if the pupils had failed to pass their daily lessons, they must return to school after supper with tallow candles and study until they were able to recite them—Perhaps our “Study Club” is a survival of this old custom. This school comprised the first eight grades, and it was not until in the late seventies that a new school was required, because of Brookville’s growing population. In 1878 the public school was erected on the present site on Church Street. The property was a gift of Paul Darling, a pioneer school master, and financier, to whom a great deal of credit is due, because of his philanthropic work in Brookville. This building served as the only institution of education for several decades, but in 1898, under the leadership of Prof, T. B. Galbraith, a new building, the Darling, was erected. The intermediate grades were housed on the first floor and the second floor was an auditorium with seating capacity for about five hundred. In 1918, because of the increased population, due to the addition to manufacturing plants of Brookville, a new school became necessary to accommodate the pupils who lived in the eastern and southern sections of town, and under the principalship of Mr. C. E. Wilson, the new Longview School was dedicated in 1919. This brings us up to the present day conditions in our public schools, and we all realize the over-crowded condition that necessitated the addition to our schools. The annex, completed this spring, is one of the most modern of buildings. We appreciate our sunny, cheery rooms and our large, airy laboratory to the utmost. Let us hope that our successors may enjoy this splendidly equipped building fully as much as we have, and that they may endeavor still further to raise the standard of our Alma Mater, by remembering an unfinished task—the addition of a complete library. aya h'iyht ::: .I ,V. 7 AIHE CLASS HISTORY, ’24. Four years ago the Class of twenty-four was at the bottom of a steep hill. We were told that there were slippery places, and if we weren’t careful, we would fall. To verify this statement, we only had to look around us to see some of our old “stand-bys”. We were the cause of much fun, as are all Freshmen classes, but in the spring our army of eighty-three made its first advance and won. The Sophomore year was more interesting, and it was at this time that some of our boys made their first appearance on the Varsity team. Others joined the team later and helped make a good reputation for our school. The Junior year was a big event for all. Of course our aim was to give the Seniors the best banquet we could afford. We worked hard and kept our grades up at the same time. We hope the result brought as much enjoyment to the Seniors as it did to us. But there is always time for a good joke. Who does not remember the day in Chemistry Class that Laura Greene went to sleep ? When Mr. Gayley discovered it he said in a very loud voice: “Pinch her, some-one; some of you fellows pinch her and see if she is asleep.” About that time Laura came back to earth and after a semi-lecture about attention, the class continued. Now the time has come when we have reached the summit of the hill, not the summit of learning, for that can never be, but the summit of education, that good old B. H. S. offers us. We are pleased to have reached our goal, but sorry to leave our school, which has taught us all we know. We feel so unprepared to go out info the world and take our places; yet this brings to our minds those who left their opportunity while we labored up the hill. Are we sorry we stuck to it? That needs no answer, for we are proud to say that our class numbers sixty-six. May the class of Twenty-four meet with all success, and may we never forget what we owe to B. H. S., and the faculty who were so patient and kind to us. He Certainly Must Colored Waiter—(on dining car)—Is this young man your son? Mr. Leathers—Yes, that’s my son, Frank. Colored Waiter—He looks like you sah, pefect image of you sah. Mrs. Leathers—(after a while)—Isn’t that waiter a polite man. Mr. Leathers—He’s working for a tip. Frank Leathers—Well, he must have a pretty good idea who’s going to do the tipping.

She gets good grades and expects some time to be a noted girl of the teaching profession She is a girl of her own type and very kind. 3eC FRANCES CLARK Mary Frances, a former basketball star Is friendly, sweet and shy, She’s industrious, and always helpful to her friends, And her ambitions as a nurse are high. ELIZABETH COCHRAN We don’t know whether Betty Cochran is a good loser or not, because we don’t believe she ever lost out anywhere. Pep is her middle name, and the high position of the old class is her work in no few places. Di;l you see her in the “Charm School”? Oh, boy! Well when brains, beauty and personality get together you have a great combination, and we’re mighty proud of our little girl too. MARY DARR A great gal in our class is“Bush”, She‘s full of pep—never needs a push. For every committee, she’s been picked, Very few decisions of hers were licked. She’s darn good lookin’ as queen she reigns, You could win any man if you had her brains. MARY DINGER Mary Dinger was a member of the H. S. chorus. Can she sing? I’ll say she can. Tra-la-la, tree la-la—that’s Mary. There’s not a member of the Class of ’24, but what likes her with that pretty face and winning smile. HARRY DEIBLER Harry Deibler is really a clever, likeable chap, as his work in the Charm School, brought out. Harry keeps his studies out of the depths too and boasts a lot of friends, even though he does play a wicked saxophone. HERMAN EDEBURN Herman is a member of the Boys’ Chorus, having a very melodious voice. ’ He is especially popular among his lower classmates. Herman is a very studious boy, and although he hasn’t been a member of our class long he is well known throughout. .

It is an inspiration to all of us, to see her go about her lessons so diligently, and willingly. Her generosity, quietness, and courtesy makes her personality a very charming one! She will doubtless be successful in the future. She reminds us that: “Kind hearts are more than coronets, And simple faith than Norman blood.” ROBERT EVANS The High School career of Robert Evans is as colorful as the rainbow. Bob got off with, a jump and captured the class presidency which he held for three years. Popularity has been the pass-word of this young man from first grade up. Ask the fellows— Ask the GIRLS! RICHARD FALK Not real tall and not real fat. But with our class, he sure stands pat. GERALDINE FITZGERALD Geraldine hails from Clarington High to complete her course here. She has been with us only a while, but we think we know her quite well. She thinks one should use study periods for preparing one’s lessons, and enjoy one’s self later, which you will admit is a good plan. ESTHER FINCH Esther Finch has always been a live wire and a great help to our old class. Things looked mighty blue when Esther moved away, but —Oh joy! she came back. Much of the success of ‘Be Yourself’ belongs to Esther’s wit and ability. ELSIE GEIST Elsie Geist, from Salem, Armstrong County, joined our class in the Sophomore year, after spending one term in the New Bethlehem High School. She takes an active part in class activities and was in the Senior Class play. Fom tern I ANXUAIRE OWEN GAYLEY Very clever and easily lead, A darned good fellow tho’ His hair is red. PAUL GILYARDI P. Gilyardi is a regular customer of the so-called “Hoodie Bug”. Paul is a studious boy, and one who has never been seen cross during his whole career in the B. H. S. He He works hard from day to day, He never finds the time to play, He always comes when he is told, And never flinches, Oh, he’s so bold. EVA GOODYEAR Eva is a young lady of the section of town called Litch Hill. She is very patient as well as studious. She is a member of the Girls’ Chorus, and always works whether it be raining or fair. She is honored highly by all the students of her class. RUTH HAINES Ruth is a sweet faced little lassie, Who cares not for Tom, Dick or Harry, She is industrious and quite friendly too, For which reason, I like her—don't you? ELMA K. HARSH Bright and happy is Elma Kay, When she’s around we’re always gay. Good looking, good dancer, oh and say, Wasn’t she the hit in our Class play. ALDEAN HAWK Aldean, a pupil in the Charm School and in the Public School, owes her E’s and G’s to her diligent mixture of mind—night oil with grey matter. She is of a friendly nature and is a devotee of the movies. ETHEL HENDRICKS You know Ethel the pleasing creature who took the part of Miss Curtis in the Charm School. Ethel has always been a fine student, and has an unlimited number of friends. Pat e Fifteen .lA.vri •; W vauv.'.'.'.u'.::' :i.: VAUGHN HAUGH Vaughn Haugh is a fine chap, on his face is ever present a good natured smile, and this along with the becoming manner in which his hair wreaths around his temples makes him popular with ladies—especially the Sophomores. PHILIP HAWTHORNE Philip Hawthorne entered the school as a Freshman and kind of took things by storm for this chap is a successful baseball catcher, and basketball star. Phil uses his brain as much as his brawn, and you know that’s what wins. BLANCHE HEASLEY Blanche was our class Secretary. She stood by her stand, did what she knew best, and always came out on top. As an actress and singer she sure hit the bull’s eye. What more can we say—except that we are very glad she was one of us. ANNABELLE HELLMAN Annabelle Heilman is a studious girls of the B.H. S. She comes to school every morning with the same smile. She is a member of the orchestra and an excellent player. (I never heard her play, but I’ve seen her with her beau.) MARTHA HELLMAN Before classes one might often hear Martha whisper to her friends—My nose shiney? Got a comb? Give me a mirror. Then she applies herself to her studies, and with only an occasional whisper to make time fly fast she forgets herself in books until with a joyous smile she learns that it is time to go home at last, ALTA HETRICK Alta may seem slim and fragil, but she has lots of pep and energy, and puts them to work in her lessons, and the results are satisfactory. Page Sixteen . I V. 7 .1 UK ARLENE HORNER Arlene Horner is one of our hardest laborers. She studies nights—yet you don’t see her yawning in every class like some of the rest of us. And Arlene isn’t afraid to smile. My no! She’s willing to smile too. EMMA HORNER Emma, although quiet and reserved in school, is gay and sociable, without being giddy, out of school. She is quite diligent and always willing to help who ever she can. RAYMOND HUMPHREY You know the kind of a man it took to play the lead in the Charm School? Well we can easily see how Raymond Humphrey came in to the part. Ray has been a favorite with the boys and others. He got his letter at basketball too. RUTH JOHNS Ruth is a bright, black eyed beauty. She is a keen observer with reserved qualities. Her motto is “Never Be Late.” We wish her the greatest of pleasures in life. HARRIET KELSO Harriet owes her popularity to her cheerful, entertaining self. She is quite talkative; indeed, sometimes she is the cause of many remarks from Miss Hamilton, and many are the people who have been captivated by her sweet personality. GEORGE KOSCO G. Kosco is a bright student, coming from Ram-saytown. George is always around when it’s time. He is liked by all the pupils of his class, and everyone else who knows him. He hopes some time to become a man who will do some good to all of us. LAW (AIRE Patfr Srmitrvu LENORE KUNSELMAN Lenore Kunselman has passed through four years of High School on high. Lenore was in the Senior big success—Be Yourself— We’re all glad to be in the class with her. Reckless of manner, and clever of speech, Crossed Walnut and Cherry and got a peach. FRANK LEATHERS Treasurer of the Class four years, member of the High School Orchestra, won his letter in basketball and is indeed quite the good fellow. The quality of ‘Rekas’ is proven by the quantity of his friends. ALFRED MAPES Alfred is a very industrious creature, who believes that silence is golden, unless he is in the presence of the faculty. However, he has made his school career worth while and we expect big things of him. MARY MARTZ She walks from home to school, three miles, But at her destiny, she still smiles, She works hard and very steady,, And when it’s time, she’s always ready. ELIZABETH MILLER Sweet and demure with little to say, But everyone’s friend in her sweet, winning way. GEORGE MITCHELL George is one of the A. No. 1 students of Class of twenty four, E’s go to him—like a moth goes to a bright candle. And you can’t saj George isn’t funny. You don’t know him if you haven’t laughed at some of his pranks HARRY MOORE Harry Moore is little in size, but not in intelligence. During his Freshman year the students would say—Who is that smart little fellow from Ramsaytown.—All this has never turned his head, and we all think highly of him. aye Eighteen I AW CM RE JAMES MOORE Sam is gifted with all the fine qualities of a perfect Irishman, and makes the most of it. He really is the life of the class, when it comes to driving away the blues. His brains and skill made him captain of our great second team. OLIVE MOWERY Olive is a studious girl and has been a member of the Senior Class all through it’s high school career. She is a member of the Girls’Chorus and has been for several years. She is a very kind girl, and always willing to help anyone she can. MARIE McANINCH As we all know, Marie has just been with us a year; what a delight it has been on our part, to have her as one of us. Is she funny? Why my goodness, all she needs to do is look at you with a joke in her eyes and you have to laugh. MARY McKINLEY Mary McKinley comes to us from Alaska. Going by the name of the town, one would take it that anyone who comes from there would have cold and chilly ways, but not so with our Mary. She has the warmest smile in all B. H. S. ELEANOR POSTLETHWAIT Eleanor is as merry and gay, As any body could be, She studies hard, and her lessons gets She always laughs and never frets. JAMES PARK James, commonly known as “Jim”, among his classmates, hails from the country town called Stanton. Jim is very well acquainted with the plow and harrow, which he can handle with great dexterity. If country lads ever get fame and renown, Jim will certainly get his share. CHARLES PARK Will the eyes of the audience please turn this way; we take great pleasure in presenting to you Charles Park, our esteemed Class President. To attempt to put in this small space the history of his career at B. H. S., is an impossibility, but we will attempt to do him justice in these few lines. “Chas.” has been a live wire in promoting things of interest at B. H. S. for the last four years, but his Senior year probably outshines the rest. The successful way in which he managed the fourth page of the ’Owl, reflects no little credit on him. His part in the Charm School and Be Yourself, show him very capable in the field of dramatics. The cartoons and headings in L’Annuiare, are all products of his pen. Park is of a type that is practically indis-pensible to a class and school. HELEN RAYBUCK Helen Raybuck is a girl of great ambitions, and hopes sometime to use them. She is a member of the Girls’ Chorus. She works hard at home as well as at school. She is a friend of the members of all the classes and loves the lads as well as the lassies. WILLIAM K. REID Bill Reid is as live a chap as ever went to B. H. S. He is a real musician, having mastered the saxophone, banjo, and piano. Bill did much to make his mark on the second team, and in the class play. The boy has a wonderful brain. LAURA RUDDOCK Laura is a winsome daisy from Daisytown, Who had her locks clipped just this season, Always glad to do kind deeds unto all her friends They’re all attached to her for this very reason. MARGARET SCOTT Margaret’s the girl with red, red curls, Oh, she is envied by all the girls, As for gettin’ thru-leave that to Scott, ’Tis a winning battle she has fought. Payc Tirrnty T . . ( AIRE iininna:;! PEARL SOWERS Pearl, with scores of friends and more, Has talents plenty—yes, galore; Studious, friendly, yet so gay, Her friends are as many as hours in the day. PAUL K. STOLZ P. K. came to us in the Junior year from Jeanette High, bringing with him many things worthy of note along the literary line. As editor of the Owl, and originator of the year book, he has made a name for the class, as well as himself. Stolz is our entry for true ambition. DONALD SWARTS Don was vice-president the first three years and has always stood out in class affairs. His ability as pianist in the High School Orchestra is worthy of no slight mention. ELLWOOD SWINDELL Swede is a student of great class fame. He is a star of the Basketball field, and the friend of a fair maiden. He is liked by all his class mates, and everyone else. He is a member of the Orchestra, being one of the first violinists. He is very gallant and through this method has won a great many friends. MARY THRUSH Quiet, but charming is this young lass, We are proud to have her in our class; She has been with us only a year, And when one learns to know her, She’s a little dear. RALPH THOMAS Ralph Thomas looks at a lot of friends through a pain of glass. Ralph comes to our school from Ohl, and is a constant customer of the Hoodie Bug. He will get there, too. HERBERT WEBSTER Herbert Webster—a new-comer to our class, Has, with his brains joined the mass, Of students here to do his best, In winning honors with the rest. L'AXXIMRE Par e Twcn ty-on HESS ELIZABETH WALLACE Besse, a belle from the plains beyond Sigel came to B. H. S. to obtain knowledge on how to get rich (ie). Well she soon found it in the class of ’22, but finds it quite difficult to get wholesale, so she is gaining little by little by love. Besse has a general knowledge of most things, but more specific some day, she says she will have it. We suggest one way to get her desire is to take up Home Economics. EUGENE WHITEHILL Beany boasts an everlasting good nature. That is the way to make friends, isn’t it, Gene? And oh, did you ever see this boy pitch a baseball game, and he was a star on the old Reserves in basketball. GENEVIEVE WILSON To tell of Genevieve would take quite a while, As for her classmates, she always has a smile. And although we must say good bye, And leave the school with many a sigh, Thoughts will often come to our mind, Of Genevieve quiet, studious, and kind. RICHARD WILSON If Dick Wilson were king, no one would ever weep, for if you want to see the best example of youthful' happiness and joy in life, look at this young man. It is a fact that if any teacher ever wanted to get in an argument she never picked on Dick, Ask Miss Stewart. A TERRIBLE BLUNDER Evans—Did you hear about Swindell last Sunday? Deibler—No, what was doing up at Harsh’s last Sunday? Evans—This wasn’t up at Harsh’s; this happened down at the Methodist Church. You see, everything was going nice and quiet like, when all at once the organ began to play, ‘Rock of Ages’, and Swindell thought it was America and took off his hat. Miss Hamilton—Why dp authors say: “A smile crept over her face” ? Sam Moore—Because they were afraid if it went much faster it might kick up some dust. Page Twenty-two J AWTAFltE .X (Class mm We, the members of the Class of 1924, do make and publish this, our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void former wills by other classes at any time heretofore made.

We give and bequeath to the Juniors our Good Will and Authority, may they fulfill the obligations and responsibilities of a Senior Class. To the Sophomores we bequeath the advice that they shall live up to the high standards which our class has set and lived up to. May the greatest success follow them through their remaining years in Brookville High School. To the Freshmen, we loyaUy advise them to put away their kites, whistles, balloons and other children’s toys. It is now time for them to assume the airs of sophisticated Sophomores. These school possessions are now legally the possessions of the coming Senior Class. The following is each Senior’s individual bequest : Charles Park gives and bequeaths his noted art in music to Frank Miller. George Mitchell wills his powers of concentration to “Ash” Galbraith. Esther Finch leaves her towering height to Audrey Burns. Elizabeth Cochran honorably gives her art in dancing to Wayne Park. Frances Clark gives and bequeaths her noted quietness to Florence Doran.

MARGARET SCOTT, GENEVIEVE WILSON Witnesses:— Richard E. Wilson T. Elwood Swindell Harry H. Moore, Jr. Bnmr (Hlass JlriTphmj (2424 A. D.) Bx Charles Park One Thursday morning last week Dante called me up and told me that he and Virgil were going to take a run down to the Inferno and they wanted me to go along. I knew I may as well get used to things down there as soon as possible, so I told him ‘yes’, and he said he would be right up for me, and we would all go down. We arranged for berths on the vessel and in the morning we found ourselves on the other side of the river Styx. We went on shore and took a taxi for any part of the Inferno. The air was heavy and filled with smoke and shrieks re-echoed all over the underworld. I heard Virgil telling Dante that the smoke was from the pit and the shrieks were made by tortured shades who were naughty on earth. We rode on and still the dreadful sounds grew louder. This wierd situation was beginning to overcome my hap- Page Twenty-sir L’ANNUAIRE py disposition and I realized that terror was swiftly creeping into my bones. We came to a spot in the very middle of the underworld. The air was dense and sultry; I heard the most terrific shriek I had ever heard in all my life. I looked out the window and to my amazement I saw my old friend George Mitchell walking back and forward in a cage like a wild animal, and at every step he let forth the most dreadful moan in all Hades. Wife beater, groaned Virgil in answer to my inquiry, and see that little woman on crutches leaning against his cage—that’s his wife, whom he beat. Another awful moan! “What’s the matter, George, are you afraid you‘11 never get out?” No, he answered, You see they take every other bar off my cage once a year, and the bars will soon be far enough apart so my wife can get in. I turned away. Oh, horrors! what was this? There before my eyes was Paul Gilyardi in a barber’s chair, and some horned creature was shaving him with a cleaver, and as fast as he got him shaved, his whiskers would grow out anew. If I could only live again, I would not be so rough with my razor when I shaved people, he said. And there was Jim Moore laughing as hard as he could laugh, because an imp was telling him a funny story. He told the same story over year after year, but Jim never stopped laughing. He told me between snickers that when I went back to the world never to amuse people like he did. I promised. Yes, I was not mistaken, it was Elizabeth Miller, reading a book on “How to be Ladylike.” She said it was her seven millionth time over it, and it was beginning to get dry. And here was Raymond Humphrey trying all these years to charm a garter snake.' He told me to keep away from “charm schools.” Poor Eugene Whitehill was trying to shovel all the snow off Mt. Everest, so it wouldn’t be a white hill. No girl would accept him ’til he accomplished it, because they all said if they wanted to be near a ‘White hill’ they would go to Mt. Everest. He advised me to get rid of Yellowstone National Park. “What’s the trouble over there, Virgil?’ I groaned. George Kosco is trying to teach that chicken all he knows, because he is too well educated to live around here. What is it that’s so quiet around here, Dante ? I whispered. It’s Doc Carmalt, he said, they don’t allow him to say anything down here, because he was so boisterous up above. Why, there’s Harold Black. How thin he looks. Yes, said Virgil, he has to ask for his meals in French, and he hasn’t eaten since he came down here. And that chap over there? Don’t you recognize Ralph Thomas? You see he can’t find his I AXXtMItE Page Tircnly-xcvc m .. name in the Book of Life, and he has to stay down here. That’s what he gets for having a first name for a last name. But what’s Harry Deibler doing with that bull ? He’s trying to trim its horns, vou know he never used to have his sax. in tune. What are Dick Wilson and Bill Reid wailing so about? You can hear them all over the Inferno. Oh they think they’re brothers, remarked Dante; You remember they were the twins in the Charm School, and they wouldn’t be in the same family, no how. Why are all those keepers around Bob Evans? I asked. Virgil explained that Bob was always going around calling “Hazel”, and every one thought he was a nut. And who’s the tall girl who always looks at the horizon ? You remember Esther Finch, said Virgil? She used to watch Don Swartz so much that now she has to sit up every morning and wait for dawn like his mother used to do. You mean that sad looking girl over there? said Dante,— Why that’s Olive Mowery, she spoke French so well, they thought she was from Paris, and you know they send all the Parisians down here. Mr. Virgil, I hate to bother you, but will you tell me who that girl is and why does she have such enormous feet? Virgil told me that Cora Cams used to complain about having so far to walk to school that now whenever she takes a step each foot grows an inch. She’s not stepping out much lately. Yes, said Virgil, that boy under the huge heap of clothes is Herman Edeburn. When he was at Wilson and Markle’s, he told so many people that clothes made the man, that he got to believe it, so he has tried every garment on in Hades, but he can’t make a ‘He man’ out of himself; he will always be Herman. Is that Martha Heilman, Virgil ? I mean the girl burning wood over there. Yes, that’s Martha, she got in to the movies, but didn’t like it at all, and she can’t get out until she burns all the wood in Hollywood. What’s Eva Goodyear weeping about over there? Well you see they used her name on Goodyear tires once too often and before she knew it she hadn’t any name left. Why, there’s long Jim Park, over there I said. He’s all doubled up and moaning! Sure, said Virgil, serves him right, someone told him no park I was complete without a bench in it, and the poor boy swallowed a bench. Well, I see Annabell Heilman’s here too. Sure thing, said Virgil, she doesn’t like me, so Miss Ginter’s paying her rent down here. Why there’s Geraldine Fitzgerald, I’m surprised. Page Ticeiitij-cir h t ISA XXrAIItE You wouldn’t expect to find her in heaven, would you? They watch her close down here. Poor Mary Dinger, said Virgil. She was too blond, so they won’t let her wash her hair down here ’till it gets black. Who is that woman I hear talking. I’ve heard her voice steadily ever since we crossed the Styx. Ethel Hendricks, said Virgil; that’s what they do with a modest person down here; strange too; for most beautiful people do as they please. Great Scotts, Virgil; what is Swindell trying to do with all that straw; and what’s Elma Harsh shouting'at him for? Oh, said Virgil, that’s the biggest joke of the Inferno. You see Swindell has been trying to make a basket out of that straw for a million years, and Elma has been standing there rooting for him. Everybody knows that Swindell never could make a basket when Elma was rooting for him. Tell me, Virgil, do they have Helen Raybuck down here? Sure; you remember she impersonated Miss Ginter in ‘Be Yourself’, and when the show was over, try as she would she couldn’t get the make up off, and had to go on being Miss Ginter. She eats and eats and eats; but of course everything goes to Miss Ginter’s stomach, and poor Helen is slowly starving to death for a million years. And over there is Mary Marty, he continued. They rub mud on her face night and day because every one in Hades was jealous of her fine complexion. We rode along until we came to a huge lake, then we got in a boat and rowed away out from shore and night came on, and the lake got darker and darker. We lost our way, then Dante turned to Virgil and asked: Oh, Virgil, Why is it so dark? Who is to blame for all this darkness? Alta Hetrick and Ruth Johns, sighed Virgil. Yes, yes, but two little girls couldn’t cause all this darkness, who else is to blame ? And Laura Ruddock, added Virgil. There must be others, said Dante. There are; Harriet Kelso and Lenore Kunselman, admitted Virgil. You see, he went on, When these girls were alive they were never satisfied with their environment. They were continually breaking up light house keeping. Yes, yes, but what has all that to do with all this darkness. Well you see when these girls died they were put to work down here breaking up all the lighthouse keeping in the Inferno, and now there is not a lighthouse in all Hades.—That’s why it is dark. When morning came I heard Mary Thrush singing like an Eagle, that’s what she gets for having a bird name. I saw nine cooks feeding Scrubby Hawthorn night and day, I AAXI AfltE Patfe Tlenity-nine but Virgil told me that it was impossible to Phil Hawthorne. Alfred Mapes and Harold Allshouse always drank in a lot of wisdom at school, but they couldn’t drink so easily down here, because every time they wanted a drink they had to swallow a barrel of water, a teaspoonful at a time, then they would be allowed to have a drink. They told me Paul Stolz has an awful life. He is the editor of the Infernal Owl, and every time he gets the type set the Pastry Cook makes pie out of it. And poor Marian Bortner, always bothered the scales so much while she lived, that now she had to count the scales on every fish in the ocean. Virgil called my attention to Von Hauck, who was forever lifting a stone as big as a piano. Von told me he was a ‘shoplifter’ before he died, and now he had to do some real lifting. When Herbert Webster came down there they mistook him for Noah Webster, and put him to work writing an index for his dictonary. And what do you think ? Retta Enty had made the mistake of teaching school and now along with all the other teachers, she had to learn all she taught, a tremendous task. Aldean Hawk was tiring under the burden of her bill, and was trying to change her name so she wouldn't have any more bills like some birds. Where is the moaning coming from now, Virgil? I asked That’s Owen Gayley. Some girl broke his heart and a doctor is sewing it together, and every time he comes to the last stitch the thread breaks and unravels, and the Doctor has to begin all over again. Owen tells people that a stitch in time saves nine million. Hello, Dick Folk! Why are you down here ? With a tear moistened voice Dick told me how he had wrested Max Weiss’s business away from him. He told me they thought any one that was so keen must be crooked and sent him down here. Gertrude Wiley’s husband had complained about her inability to fry eggs, so the Infernal Gods have given her the problem to fry two eggs; one on one side and the other on the other side. She told me she was getting good at it. What’s that racket, Virgil? He told me it was Pearl Sowers singing in the anvil chorus. Well, if it isn’t Bess Wallace, How did you get here? Bess told me she was a manicurist in life and got so used to cutting finger nails that she cut her income tax, and had to mani cure the hands on the town clock all the rest of her days. Why, I never thot Blanche Heasley would end up down here, but over there she is. Virgil told me that she didn’t belong down here, but was looking for Miller. Page Thirty ISA XXVAIRE ft You know Elsie Geist, said Virgil? Well over there she is; she had a millinery store and told women they looked good in the hats they bought. You know lying is a terrible crime down here. All at once there burst out upon the air a mighty roar, that rocked the Inferno. In this roar was mingled the heartache and cold regret of a million years. Mr. Dante made one leap and throwing both arms around me, begged me to protect him now, or never. We looked around and saw the biggest lion of all time. Fear not, said Virgil; that is only Frank Leathers, he was always a lion with the ladies, but down here he’s just a lion, all by himself, because one’s not allowed to keep company with the ladies. What punishment could be worse ? There’s Genevieve Wilson lying on all those cushions eating bon-bons. Why she’s the only person I’ve seen enjoying herself, how does that come? The girl’s father was a dentist and she had a PULL down here, that’s why, Virgil told me. As we walked along Main Street a little later, Dante had his face turned upward looking at the sky-scrapers. Suddenly a young woman approached us and with an awful stride ran into Dante, and knocked him out into the street. She kept right on walking in the same determined manner. Who’s the young lady in the big hurry? I asked Virgil. That’s Mary McKinley, they make her walk Main Street four hundred times a day, and she’s in a hurry to get through for the day, Virgil informed me. Virgil began to whistle ‘The Red Head Gal’— Is Margaret Scott around, I asked ? Sure thing, you remember how people used to yawn, when she told about a chap named Buster, well they found they could make good use of her down here so they make her stay around the Infernal hospital and tell the stubborn sick people who won’t take their medicine, so much about this Buster that they have to yawn, then the nurse pours the medicine in their mouths, and Margaret starts on another one. And you remember the Horner girls, Arline and Emma, continued Virgil, and how devoted they were to each other,they would never give a moment to anyone else; down here they are only allowed to talk together once a year over the telephone, and then they always get the wrong number. Just then we heard a woman scream, Virgil told me it was Eleanor Postlethwaite; and that they were removing her freckles. The process they used was peculiar; first they bathe the freckles in an acid which turns them to steel, and then they pull them off with a magnet. Listen! We heard some one singing ‘Oh Harold, Oh Harold, you must come over Harold.’ I asked Virgil who the Siren voice Page Thirty-one 1 A W I AIRE ....Bmmmm belonged to, and he told me Mary Darr had to sing that song day and night because she once stole her sister’s beau. Virgil explained to us that Don Swarts had signed a peculiar contract down here. It seems that Don works all the time because they’re afraid to let him go home at night. The reason for this is that when he was alive and working he was always late in getting around to his job to quit, and so his firm always had to keep open two or three hours after the whistle blew waiting for Don to come around and quit work. Frances Clark, our ex-basketball star, spends all her time down here trying to dribble a cannon ball. And Margaret Ackley graduated from two high schools, while living, but she regrets it now, because if she would have been satisfied with one diploma, she could spend half her time in heaven, but the way it is the first half year the Sigel Alumni meets, and the second half the Brookville ‘grads’ hold a reunion in the Inferno. We hesitated a moment to hear Marie McAninch making a speech to raise money for an Infernal fire engine. She could talk people into anything. Then we saw Harry Moore; his face was a deep red and he blushed all the time . He seemed terribly embarrassed. Virgil told me he had to undergo the feeling all the time that a youth experiences on his first day in long pants. This was his punishment, because he wore knee pants all through high school. I asked Virgil why Ruth Haines was forced to carry a huge log around on her back, and he told me it was all because she had lived in Carrier’s Addition. And now we have come to the gates on the other side of the underworld. We look across the country and out in the distance we see a fair lady in a black and white striped suit, working on a huge stone pile with a sledge hammer; but wait, on close examination, we find that the objects which are crushed under her blows are not stones, but petrified hearts. Oh, Virgil, tell me who she is, and why does she break those hearts. That’s Betty Cochran, the poet answered, and maybe her task will become monotonous some day. And then I woke up and I swear that never again will I eat a bread and butter sandwich on bun before retiring. Professor Henry, (Showing a picture)—This is a picture of myself and our old mule. Professor Downie—(Looking closely)—Which is the mule? Webster—(boastingly)—Professor Davis’ hair tonic makes my hair stand up straight. Prof. Davis—(sometime later)—Do any of you boys know what has become of my corn cure ? NIK .Il’NIOK ('LASS 8 . .I V XI I WE Page Thirtg-thi Juniors, Allass of ’25 BY HERB.

We regret leaving sech nice teechers, end we notice a look of distressed agony on the faces of all of them at seeing sech an eligible class pass intew the great beeyond—Amen. laakptball The boys of Brookville High School learned a lot of basketball this year. When the faculty for 1923-24 was organized it was found that no basketball stars were among the number. Desiring to maintain the high standards of former years, the management decided to employ Major John Logan, a former High School star, to coach the team. He developed a smooth, fast team, which showed the home folks, and the towns which we visited, some of the best passing and team work of the season. Unfortunately this does not show in the percentage column, for the team did not win as many games as it lost. They thot it was fair enough for Brookville practically always won the first half, and often the opponents won the second half. The team had a splendid spirit. They are naturally true sportsmen, individually, and Mr. Logan urged upon them only the finest type of sportsmanship and team play. This spirit induced many complimentary expressions from officials an 1 newspapers throughout the territory. Each member of the team contributed faithfully, of his very best effort. Few exhibitions of individual starring work were noticed. However, Swindell wras a very general selection for a forward on the All-League team. He well deserves the honor. Mention must be made of the second team, coached by Mr. Barnett. They always gave the Varsity a battle, and have an enviable record of games won, losing only two during the season. Some members of this team, along with Freshmen and Sophomores, on the Varsity, give promise of a good team next year, and we always build for the future. lasrball Baseball has always been considered a major sport in our High School, in spite of the fact that to carry out a baseball program, presents many more difficulties than are encountered in indoor sports, such as basketball. In the first place, the expense of equipping a baseball team, is comparatively larger on account HAS;I !•: i'liALij TEA.M K. Kroh F. Egmond John Logan, Coach K. Humphrey H. Black A. Galbraith E. Swindell P. Haines of the large number of players on the team. Hence, the cost of transportation is much greater than in the case of basketball. Then too, weather conditions often make it very difficult to play out a schedule. This has been particularly true for the present season. A third difficulty which has had to be met during the past few years is the fact that in many High Schools baseball as a major sport, has given away to track, and there are very good reasons for this change. This has made it very difficult to prepare a schedule of games with schools in the immediate neighborhood. But with all of the above handicaps, we have good reasons to believe that our H. S. has a very creditable record in a baseball way. For the season of 1923, games were played with New F. Leathers P. Hawthorne HI L’ANNUA IRE (!( ' Fortjf-cir h f .:i:UUuuu m:::i! Bethlehem, Falls Creek, Sandy Township H. S., and Curwensville. The record of the team for the season was one game won and one lost with N.. B. With Falls Creek, two won and none lost. With Sandy Twp., two lost and one lost to Curwensville. For the present season of 1924 only one game has been played to date, which was a victory over Falls Creek. Games are scheduled with Du-Bois H. S., Clarion Normal and Dayton Vocational School, and it is hoped that weather conditions will permit the completion of this part of the schedule. As to the team itself, it can be truly said that the material is good. With an infield made up of Walters, Swindell, Galbraith and Black; an outfield consisting of Whitehill, Egmond and Breakey; and a pitching staff like Lowry and Means, with Witherow on the receiving end, it is fairly plain that B. H. S. can measure up with any school of its class in this kind of sport. The question might be asked, should baseball be maintained as a major sport in H. S. ? To those who are real fans, the answer will be yes. It is our national game, and the training that one receives on the diamond, can hardly be given its true value, on the physical side it developes the body, and being played in the open air has an advantage over indoor games. It is a game that requires skill, activity, self control and most of all, it commands respect for authority. And it is hoped that our own H. S., along with others will find time for both track and baseball in their spring athletic program. (Erark (Eram During the course of a month’s training our track team has shown continual development.

YHJiHMH.niO rIO()II.)S 11! )111 HTIIAMOOHH (JDrrhrstra Our High School Orchestra has been bigger and better than ' ever this year. Under the direction of Miss Sowash, it has developed into an organization which would do credit to many a larger school. The orchestra entertained at an evening session of the teachers’ institute, and was highly praised by all who heard it. Other engagements were at the Nurses’ Graduation of the local hos-£ pital, Sigel High Commencement, Senior Class Play, and other school functions. As a climax to the season the orchestra will compete for honors with, other schools of this section at a meet held at Clarion on May twenty-fourth. There are twenty-five members of the orchestra this year, as follows: 1st Violins—E. Swindell, F. Leathers, E. Black, P. Stolz, L. ■ JShyder, H. Shick, G. Riggs. • 2nd Violin—A. Heilman, A. Means, I.

It has played many important parts in the production of programs and plays, which were always a splendid success. In spite of the fact that it was able to meet only once a week, and if any other special programs were being arranged, not that often, it made good progress and obtained very good results. SKXIOR-JUXIOR (URLS' CHORUS Many girls have remarked that they never knew that they liked vocal music so well until taking up chorus work in Brook-ville High School. This has also been an inspiration for many for taking up music as a life work. Under the supervision of Miss Hoffman, now Mrs. Eckert, for three years, we progressed rapidly. Two or three Operettas were given and were very successful and instructive. Among them was “The Isle of Chance. A musical interpretation of a Captain who, with his crew, lived on an island, and instructed his men to put large rocks in the water surrounding the island, which would wreck any ship that happened to pass the island. The captain and his men would then come into possession of more gold which they would add to their store already obtained from former ships that had suffered the same fate. The leading characters, that is, the girls, were chosen from the Girls’ Chorus. The follies, who added a great deal to the back ground of each scene and also furnished a great deal of the music, were all members of the chorus. The next year, “Love Pirates of Hawaii was produced with just as much success. These characters were also chosen from the girls’ chorus. Every member of the chorus was very sorry to see Mrs. Eckert go, and hope that she will have just as much happiness in married life as she had in our school. It was in our Senior year that Miss Sowash came to take Miss Page Fifty-two VANNUAT RE SOPIIOMORE-FKKSHMAX GIRLS’ (’IIORUS Hoffman’s place. She was just as much loved by all the girls as was Mrs. Eckert, and under her supervision everything prospered just as well as before. That year we had several entertainments, the greatest of which was the operetta called “Cherry-blossom,” a very charming little Japanese play. Every character represented her part like a professional, and rendered the operetta a great success, which proves Miss Sowash’s ability as-a musical director. lags’ (Uluirus In former years the boys of B. H. S. have given little thought to vocal music, except as the source of a good time. Accordingly, when in the fall of 1923, the announcement was made in Chapel that we were to have a chorus, it was received with acclaim by a great many of the boys. At the first meeting, when they received music which seemed to them to offer insurmountable difficulties, many felt discouraged, but after a few weeks of earnest application they overcame these barriers to such an extent that Miss So-wash had them sing one morning in Chapel. The boys met for practice the last period each Monday afternoon. At this time Miss Sowash directed them and after a fetf meetings , she had succeeded in organizing what at first had been III merely a group of boys’ voices, into an orderly and harmonious L’AXMAIRE HOYS' (’HORUS glee club. To her assistance they owe the greater part of their success. Their efforts in Chapel received much commendation and thus encouraged they continued with increasing zeal on new selections. Toward the latter part of the term the boys’ chorus cooperated with the girls in the staging of an operetta. “Miss Cherryblossom ; This is a tale of Japan, in which the private yacht of an American financier docks at Tokyo with a jolly group of young American men and women aboard. These travelers land and enter the teahouse of an old Japanese man, whose greatest treasure is one of his Geisha girls, called Cherryblossom. She is found to be the ward of the owner of the yacht and not a Japanese, but a rich young lady of American parentage. She is supposed to marry Togo, a rich Japanese politician, but her desires turn to Jack, one of the yacht’s passengers. At last Togo loses the election to his former office, and Kokemo, the owner of the tea house, finally agrees to Cherry’s wedding to Jack, after receiving proof that Jack as well as Cherry, is wealthy, and hence he may acquire a little for himself. Another momentous event in the progress of the Chorus was the contest between the schools of the district at Clarion on May 24th. The boys worked hard during their short period of prep-paration for the event, but carried off the first prize in contest with larger schools in the northwest section of Pennsylvania. This is quite an honor and is something to make us proud of the Boys’ Glee Club. □ □ ■■■ M A M Jk m ✓ r i DRAMATICS §) x 00aU i ✓-s. 1 11 (HampuB Pageant of 1023 Among the events which were held during the Commencement season of 1923 at the Brookville Public Schools, none stands out more prominently than the beautiful Campus Pageant which was presented to the’people of Brookville and the Community, by Miss Anna B. Lilly, Supervisor of Physical and Health Education in the Brookville Schools. This pageant was held on Friday, P. M., May 18, at 2:30 o'clock. It was known as “William Penn, Founder.” The plot of the pageant was entirely original, with Miss Lilly and built around the theme “Christian Convictions conceived this Commonwealth of Penna., Chartered by Charles II, March 4, 1681. The pageant began with the stationing of the guards, dressed in the costumes of the time and formed from the boys of the seventh and eighth grades. Then followed eight scenes of the pageant, each with a definite historic setting. A garden scene showed Charles II and his court, the vices and frivolities of the day; a campus scene at Oxford College, which portrayed the growth of Quakerism, the arrest of William Penn and his late banishment to France, with the Court life there, his return to England and the seeking of a grant from the king for refuge of all desiring religious freedom. Then the scene changes to America and the Dutch, Swedes, English and Germans are greeted and manifest their pleasures by folk dances. Then there is the impressive Indian Treaty which was “never sworn to, and never broken”; and all ended with the entire assemblage singing “Pennsylvania.” There were approximately seven hundred children in the pageant. Every grade from the second to the high school was presented in one manner or another.. The work was developed in the regular class room and gymnasium time, and no time out of school was taken, except for the making of the costumes. The pupils were so well trained , that there was neither a halt nor interruption from the first to the end. , . 2 A thousand or more visitors were present and everyone, watcher and participant, seemed to catch the idea of the plot, and left with different ideas of the possibilities of the correlation of history and the work of physical education.

The great majority of the seven hundred people who saw the production were more than satisfied. The play was successful because it possessed three vital elements, plot, comedy and romance. The Seniors will put their colorful talent up against any scholastic stage troupe you may choose. Raymond Humphrey in the role of Austin ifevans, an extremely handsome automobile salesman was right there when it came to teaching girls charm, and evading the results at the same time. Elma Harsh as Elsie Bendotti proved to him that his methods were effective when she had been educated to be irresistible. Harry Deibler, who was George Boyd, did some love making Page Fifty-nix L'A VA7 .I IRE that would have moved Cleopatra, and at the same time tried to show Sally Boyd, his sister, played by Betty Cochran, how to be charming in spite of the fact that Sally was more interested in the intemperence of the furnace man. Homer Johns, played by Charles Park, was made the stern character he was supposed to be, by the boistrous efforts of Park. Frank Leathers as David McKenzie, the budding lawyer, put over well his serious efforts to watch over Austin in legal matters. Dick Wilson and Bill Reid amused people so much as the twins whose ambitions and loves ran in the same channel. Blanche Heasley as Miss Hays, had a hard time in looking out for her school and checking Homer Johns’ eager come-backs. Miss Curtis,the beautiful secretary who handled the beautiful flowers, was ably portrayed by Ethel Hendricks. Besse Wallace as Alice the little French girl, found it necessary to master a little French in order to play the part. Mary Darr, as Muriel, couldn’t see why the Senior Class needed a treasurer when they didn’t have any money, and Elsie Geist, Aldean Hawk, Elizabeth Miller and Martha Hell-man all made it a gay school while they looked for Charm. (Eltr Srbatinij (Club Early in the term of 1923-24, a call was made for volunteers to represent B. H. S. in the field of debate. Several Juniors and Seniors came out in answer to this summons, but hard work and study soon cut the number to seven. At first little was done, except the study of the forms and manners of debate, but later the corresponding secretary, Forest Steele, arranged meetings with teams from DuBois and Punxsutawney. The question decided upon was that of Immigration Restrictions. The proposition was stated—Resolved: “That the United States should adopt a policy of future restriction of Immigration”. The topic was very timely, owing to the agitation throughout the country for immigration restrictions, which finally reached such a point as to demand action by Congress.. The team was divided into two squads, each taking one side of the proposition, and organizing and developing it. The affirmative was upheld by Forest Steele, Louise Snyder and Marie Snyder, while Mildred Hall, Gertrude Wiley, Herbert Webster and Alice Swineford championed the negative.. The teams opposed each other in a trial debate in Chapel one morning, and although no judges were appointed, and therefore no decision made between the teams, it afforded the debaters valuable experience for public speaking. This gave them confidence in themselves, and their arguments, which were favorably received by their auditors. THE DEBATING TEAM On May first the negative team went to DuBois to debate the affirmative. They were beaten by a decision of two to one. Their spirits dropped to the lowest ebb, but the necessity forjmeparation for the Punxsutawney debate soon made them forget, or at least partly forget their defeat. The debate against Punxsutawney was a dual one. The negative team of Punxsutawney came to Brookville to meet the affirmative of B. H. S., and the negative from Brookville went to Punxsutawney to meet their affirmative. The outcome of these debates was much more favorable than the first had been. At home the affirmative team captured the honors by a unanimous vote of the judges, while at Punxsutawney the negative won by a vote of two to one. This result was more than pleasing. Especially did Mr. Davis’ spirits soar, for he had given much time and hard labor to the promotion of the welfare of the club. These successes show the possibilities in debate, and should encourage further advances in it. As a source of training in public speaking, it can not be surpassed. )§£ X ’OWL STAFF (Eltr 'ffitttl This year was the first year that B. H. S. has issued a regular bi-weekly paper. It must be said that it has been a real success. The student body as well as many members of the Alumni, appreciate a real newsy paper, with all school events happening in the school year. 1 The first issue of The ’Owl was November the twenty-sixth. Since then it was published every two weeks till the last issue, and that was held over for the commencement exercises. The staff of the ’Owl have to co-operate to make the paper a real success. The Staff for next year will soon be chosen. They will be selected from the class of 1926, so this will mean that the Junior Class of next year will issue the paper.. X During the year the faculty advisor, Miss Emily Reicherter, L'.WM AfltE Page Fifty-Hint entertained the Staff at her home, and many points of vital interest for the next year prospects were spoken of.

For a couple of weeks ahead, we were getting ready. New dresses had to be made.—measurements had to be taken, or the tailor was busy cleaning the spots from best dresses or pressing our best suit. We were all preparing for our coming banquet. Then the day came. It was the morning of Friday, May the sixteenth. There was a vacant seat here, and there; a ha! That person had to have a last fitting, or perhaps a hair wash, or an important errand to do. In the afternoon there were more empty seats, and more people absent, “fixing up”, and then, seven o’clock was nearing, the door bell rang, a last look in the mirror, a last turn of the hand, and we were off, off to an evening of eats and fun and speeches and- and dancing. We were all so excited as we gathered in the church, waiting for a simple order to enter the dining room. There we lined up, Seniors here, Juniors there and we made the grand entrance. Our breath quickened as our eyes beheld the beautiful decorations in our class colors, green and white. The Ohs and Ahs were heard on all sides. Bright colored hats of all shapes were given us. What fun it was to march around, looking carefully for our place cards. As we found them, we dropped out of the procession, beside our places, and then we were seated. How beautiful everything looked! How cozy and bright the room looked! How happy the smiling faces! How gorgeous it all was. And such a menu! We were all so hungry, having eaten light lunches and some none at all. It was no hard work to make the food disappear and when the last good bite of the last course was disposed of—the toasts commenced. The speeches that followed were interesting and appropriate. Most of them had a decided humorous strain. Some of them nearly brought tears to the eyes of the Seniors. Next came the dance! There was a great rush for the Legion Hall. When the music started, everyone started How thankful we were that we could dance, to aid digestion, and maybe keep us from having indigestion, and we know that along with dancing, our pepsin gum helped. In an hour we were going at full sway, as happy as larks, and as full of life as a king’s fool. In two hours we were still going at a good speed, although our crowd had slightly, I repeat the word, slightly decreased. Never could we have had a better time. We were enjoying ourselves immensly when the day began to Page Ri.rty-two L’ANNUM I?E ..... die. The more days that died—the better we could dance—and when the last dog died, we were still “at it”. But—everything has an end, so the dance ended as the banquet ended, and it was all over. Our evening had been perfect. But now, it’s gone forever, And I know I will ne’er forget, What a wonderful time I had that night, ’Twas a hummer, yes you bet! ®In Nnu Atmpx During the years nineteen-nineteen and nineteen-twenty the five rooms occupied by the High School were crowded to the limit, it was necessary in nineteen twenty-one to add two more reporting rooms to accomodate the great increase in the number of students. These rooms were placed on the top floor which has been used as a gymnasium for the students. In the spring nineteen twenty-three, it was found necessary to build a new High School building, if we were to accomodate all those desiring admission to our schools. This building was not completed in time for school in the fall and the school board was compelled to add three more rooms by placing partitions in the remaining part of the gymnasium. These crowded conditions made work hard for both teachers and students. In February we were moved and soon became established in our new home. The following paragraphs will give a short description of our moving day. Necessity is the mother of invention and perhaps it also prompted some of the initiative displayed on the occasion of the transfer of the High School from the old building to the new annex. Mr. Mcllhatten’s work in the shipyards during the war came into a practical use that he little anticipated when he returned to enter the educational field. With the aid of the overalls, which he ordinarily used for getting out and under the Ford, the professor transformed himself into a veritable man-driver and assumed personal direction of the work. Mr. Davis travelled between the two buildings with a great show of haste, carrying a pencil behind his ear, but after each day’s hard work, we could detect no dust on his clothes nor blisters on his hands. Dexterity with the screw driver was shown by Elliot Butler, Albert Reitz, Perry Kummell, Ash Galbraith and others too numerous to mention. Bird Buzard would have been a valuable help but he had a bandage on his thumb, and couldn’t work. During the noon hour Herbert McGaughey and Gerald Breakey, with “Tarzan” Bailey in charge, kept up the work with feverish energy. Herbert later was heard to remark that he wouldn’t have stooped to do it if he had known that Miss Reicherter’s room was to use ISA XN( A IRE Page Hivty-thrcc chairs for three weeks afterward. Miss Ginter kept the halls clear for the continuous stream of desks which were carried over, and knocked ’em flat if any pupils got in the way of the laborers. The completion of this work affected a relief of the congestion which seriously interfered with school work during the first part of the year. The stairways are no longer clogged with students eager to get up or down. Other relief was afforded, for Mr. Barnett’s senatorian voice no longer disturbs the surrounding-rooms, and the walls in Mr. Henry’s room are so sturdy that they do not even tremble under the blows of his active chalk. (SitmttaBium mib iicalth States With the gymnasium transformed into small class-rooms at the beginning of the term, to relieve to some extent the crowded conditions, other arrangements had to be made for the instruction of the health classes. We did not find Miss Lilly complaining, however. Instead, she hastily organized all the High School girls into Health Classes, all of which were taught in the morning. These classes were thorough and proved to be very beneficial. The lessons were outlined in note-books, and illustrated by pictures, which made them quite interesting. Some of the subjects taken up at length were: Old Age vs. Disease. Scientists and their Achievements, Effects of Civilization on Man’s Health, Clothing, Heat and Ventilation, Respiration, Skin and Bathing, Hair and Nails, Food Classification, School Luncheons. Things one should know concerning the Buying, Cooking and Protection of Food, Teeth, Points on Sanitation of and Caring for the Home, Eyes, and Mental Hygiene. There were a few Junior and Senior girls, however, who could not arrange their schedules satisfactorily to include gym; these assisted Miss Lilly with her work in the grades. Now that the Gymnasium has been cleared of its partitions, horizontal bars have been placed for muscular exercises, and hooks have been placed for climbing ropes. Having achieved great success in her campus pageant, last spring, Miss Lilly is putting her energies and time in preparing a pageant this year, which she hopes will be as good as the one shown last year. The theme of the pageant which Miss Lilly is staging this year is “A Revelry to the Honor of Hvgeia, the Greek Goddess of Health”. It has been planned so that practically the whole school will participate. The first and second grades will give and illustrate health rhymes, as “It’s nearly eight, I sha’nt be late— I’ll take my light and say good-night.” 35 I,a je Sixty-four L’ANNUAIItE The grade girls will present several borrowings from folk dances. The fourth grade boys will give a drill expressing shepherd life. The High School boys will perform sacrificial dances, while the other boys will give mimetic exercises, illustrating The Teamster’s warning, Archery, Steamboat Propeller, Scythe Swinging, Baseball Batting, Putting, Rowing, Sawing and other similar exercises. The High School girls will express their appreciations through aesthetic and folk dancing. The Divine Pomona, Ceres, Vesta, Orpheus, Diana, Narcissus, and Dryado will assist Hygeia with their followers. There will also be other game activities through the use of balloons and grace hoops. In spite of the handicap under which Miss Lilly has been in not having the Gymnasium available for her use until a late date, she is working hard and expects to have the pageant in shape to present the last of May. The proceeds of the pageant will be used for further equipping the gymnasium. Jfriftatj, thr ulnrtmttlj Oh ye of superstitious faith, Who believe in odd queer signs, Oh Seniors weep along with me, In reading o’er the next few lines. The whole four years have not been bad, We’ve gone a sailing through, But such a “terrible” climax, Makes us Blooey, Blooey, Blue! Of all the days to graduate, That this date they should choose, Imagine Friday—the thirteenth, Oh Gee Whiz—what’s the use? Crook Haines—I asked if I could see her home. Kroh—And what did she say ? Haines—She said she would send me a picture of it. Dick Wilson—The doctor told me if I didn’t stop smoking I would be half-witted. Reid—Why didn’t you stop. Robber - Throw up your hands ! Stalll Man.-'Sou. wont need the gun, 1 cant keep anything dowtv. age Si-rlj si. - VANNUAIRE MORE AND WORSE Ellwood (Calling on Elma Kay)—My gracious, but you-er-are er—quite distant this evening. Elma—Well, your chair isn’t nailed to the floor, is it? Ethel—My grandfather had sideburns, Frances—Was he very ill? Margaret Scott—Did you know Miss Reicherter is engaged ? Laura Ruddock—To whom? Margaret S—To teach history next year. ON STYLE Of all new fangled styles, that You’ve seen the maidens wear, You’ve never seen a better one, Than that of bobbing hair. Bobbed, Banged, and Shingled, Are all 0. K.—You bet! And I haven’t heard a soul Who doesn’t like it yet. The fellows fuss around a bit, But that’s the nature of the beast, For after you’ve converted them They don’t mind it in the least. Esther Finch, ’24 Ain’t It the Truth In days of yore, a maiden sweet, Would write her meaning clearly; And finish up her note so neat, With simply, “Yours sincerely.” But modern Jane has changed a bit— They fill the whole note through; And then tack on the end of it, “There’s no one, dear, but you”.—Untrue. Man is like a kerosene lamp. He is not especially bright, he is often turned down, he generally smokes, and frequently goes out at night. Mary Darr—I was so sorry I could not even see you last evening, but I was having my hair washed. Ray Humphrey—And the laundries are so slow about returning things. Page Sixty-sev L’ASXVMItE Visitor—How many men do you have leaving for college this fall, from the Senior Class? Professor Mclllhattan—About six. Visitor—Is that all? Professor M.—Yes, but the rest will grow up eventually. If money talks, As some folks tell, To most of us It says “Farewell.” Mr. Gayley—How was iron first discovered? Dumb Junior—I think I heard that they smelt it. Arkwmtlcfigwmtt Perhaps everyone will sigh in relief when the last day of school rolls around, and the Seniors depart from old B. H. S. Not that we hate classes or dislike life at Brookville High, but just that we will have to hear “Year Book and L’Annuaire” no more. Perhaps Mary Darr will have a little time to sew; perhaps Stolz will take time to eat three square meals a day, and Chas. Park will be able to have an adult’s portion of sleep. Oh, things will be grand and glorious ’til next fall. Then another staff will be chosen and the grind will commence all over again. Talk of vicious circles! We will admit when we started (April 15) we were absolutely devoid of all knowledge concerning the make up of a year book. Although at such an extremely late date, we buckled down to the work at hand, and. thanks to the Republican Printing Co., the L’Annuaire was off the press the first week in June. It is impossible t,o express in a few lines our gratitude for the loyal co-operation of all.. We can only hope that your reward will be the satisfaction of work well done; and that your best and happiest memories of Brookville High School will center around this the first L’Annuaire. OUR ADVERTISERS Readers of L’Annuaire:— One half of the money necessary to finance the making of this book, vour L’Annuaire. came to you through the hearty support of these advertisers. You in turn must patronize them, if you hope to kpep their splendid aid and co-operation. Their courteous service has placed them where they are today, and keeps them there. We vouch for their entire reliability. Business and Advertising Managers. (0iu;a Inarit u NAME PASTIME NICKNAME EXPRESSION 1940 JflL Mary Thrush Fishing Mace Holy Cats!
