We hope that we have started a custom which will be established by future classes, for we feel that only in this way will others become familiar with the work done in this high school and its development. We also hope that each volume will be better than the last and that the next class will profit by our mistakes. In behalf of the class we present this book to the students, alumni, faculty and friends of the school. We certainly are grateful to the business men of North Manchester, who have so generously advertised in the first volume of the “En-Em.” Without their great help and courtesy this book would have been impossible. We are proud of the way in which most of them have stood by us and we want to thank them publicly for their kind assistance. At intervals during the year we have been honored by the presence of professors from different- colleges and other schools, as well as by ministers and other leading men of the town, who have favored us with short talks. Among the former were Prof. Glen Frank, of Northwestern University, Prof. Butler, of the University of Chicago, and Prof. Wilbur Helm, of Evanston Academy. Prof. Helm is an alumnus of this high school and we are very proud of him. These speakers gave us wholesome ideas upon different phases of education as applied to actual life. Their messages were very interesting and helpful to us. It does not seem possible, but nevertheless it is true. We shall soon graduate. Only four short years ago we were care-free Freshmen. What have these four years done for us? They have laid a broad foundation for a higher education, which it is hoped all will pursue. They have formed our ideals which we are already trying to attain. During these four years we have also formed friendships which have been very helpful to us and which we hope will continue throughout- life. Already the world seems beckoning to us and soon each one will be filling the place for which he has been striving. Page Seven F. F.

There were thirty-six of us and Oh, how timdily we gazed upon our adored Seniors and the sneering Sophomores, whose delight it was to poke fun at us. Soon, however, they all opened their eyes in wonder at us, for we developed into the most brilliant Freshman class that had ever entered tin High School, not only in tin regular class work, but also in debating, for we won in debates with Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors. But we did not receive proper respect until the assembly room was enlarged and the eighth grade admitted. Then all tin sneers were directed towards them, and we spent tin rest of our Freshman days in peace. The times quickly passed and soon we assembled again, as Sophomores. It appeared very strange to us. but nobody seemed to realize how very important we wen . Jt was not long until our heads regained their normal size, and we then remembered that we had only advanced one step from the Freshman stage and still had much to learn. We set to work with a will and before we realized it, we were Juniors. By this time our class had diminished to twenty-three. A great many pupils had left, and several new ones were added. This year we were permitted to organize, and it was with a feeling of great pride that we met for the first, time by ourselves. We elected Ross Uman. president, and Iconise Beachley, secretary and treasurer. After choosing our class colors and flower, we indeed felt that we had something in common. Now, we received our one great shock. On all occasions we were reminded that our work was below our standard. Of course, since we knew that a great deal more was expected of us than of ordinary classes we worried very little, and in this carefree state we became Seniors. Twenty of us have reached the long-sought-for goal. We are Seniors. This year Arden Strauss was elected president and Devon Olinger secretary and treasurer. At last we realize how much High School means, and in looking over the short years since we were Freshmen we feel that if we have not done as well as we should, a least, we have accomplished something, and as we go forth to assume new responsibilities, we hope that the members of the faculty will not feel that they have labored in vain.

There were thirty-four energetic little Freshmen enrolled on that first day in September, 1911. From that day we have worked so hard and with so much enthusiasm and energy that we have always ranked well. During the Freshmen year, tin upper classmen retained a haughty attitude towards the frightened little Freshies. Hut, realizing that in tin future our class was to lx of much importance, the Freshmen wore undaunted. Because of the strict rules concerning interest grades, we received very few hard knocks of initiation. Probably we were “fresh” and “green when we entered the high school, but nevertheless from the very beginning we showed our determination and willingness to do good work. As we were the largest class in the school at that time, we stuck together and worked so hard that no doubt the upper classmen and teachers thought us ideal (?) students. During our Sophomore and Junior years, although our class had decreased considerably in numbers, we always hung together and became much stronger than when Freshmen, for being upper classmen, we now had no one to fear. Members of our class have always held prominent places in all the activities of school life. Our class contributes several good athletes for the basket ball teams, track work, tennis, baseball, etc. Several members of our class have played well, but Swank and Warner have been the special stars of our class on the high school basket ball team. Our class has also furnished its share to all of the musical organizations. Being such a jolly class, our social affairs have been very brilliant and happy affairs. The annual Junior-Senior reception has always been a matter of prominence, and this year it was no exception to the rule. Besides these formal events, we have had many jolly times at parties, picnics, etc. Now we are about to start upon the last chapter of our high school life, and we hope that we may as successfully pass through this as we have the past three years in the North Manchester high school.

At first we were very anxious to gain the good opinion of every one. Though some of the upper classmen did look down upon us, we cared little, for hadn’t they started at the bottom of the ladder? The opening of the next year found us in our seats, not the same seats that we had occupied, but the ones higher up. We were now dignified Sophomores, no longer the ones to be dictated to, but the ones to dictate to the “green” Freshies. Our class now numbers twenty-two, two more than it numbered last year. We have the next to the largest class in the high school. We are well represented in the different organizations. Two of our members belong to the Second Basketball Team, one is captain and the other guard. Four of us belong to the orchestra. Ten of our members occupy important positions in the two (flee Clul s, and two of us are on the Baseball team. W it bout exaggerating in the least, we are the most handsome and most intellectual looking class of the high school. It is up to us then to make the graduating class of 19H the l e.st and the most attractive one that has ever yet graduated.

On the eighth of September wc took our places in the Assembly room with an case of manner |iiite uncommon for Freshmen. As we were thirty-four in number the other classes looked upon us in wonder, wishing us, nevertheless, a successful high school career. Our class headed the list for having fun. On th -thirty-first of October we had a fine time at Mr. Rehard's at a Hallowe’en party. On December the thirty-first we had a cross-country fox-and-goose chase, and we have gone on several bobsled rides to spelling schools in the country. Tn athletics we “starred” during the entire year. We had both a girl’s and a boy’s basketball team. Mae Lefforge is captain of the former and Foster Xheller of the latter. The Ixiys were enthusiastic over baseball and both Isiys and girls were interested in tennis. We hope to continue our good class spirit. Although we have made mis takes, and have been subject to forgetfulness we are striving to do better and hope to accomplish much, so that we may pass with high honors into the Sophomore class. 3F rrslmtau Of all the things I'd rather be. Of all the things I’d rather see, I‘m sure it is—a Freshman. If a clever fellow ever beat, In a test of mind or athletic meet lie was surely once- a Freshman. Men from every country come and go. Some use their brains, some wield a hoe, Hut most of tin ni were Freshmen. And each man thinks when he is old. hen silver threads are among the gold. Oh, just to be again a Freshman. Psitft Thircy-Two Drparlmrnts ENGLISH O BE able to read intelligently, to think well ami to express one's thought in good language, either orally or in writing—these are among the great results to he sought in education. To this end. the intermingling and interdependence of Literature. Composition and Grammar is offered in the High School as the English course. Attention is given to both oral and written composition. Various masterpieces f Literature hold prominent places in the ours and are generally considered the most enjoyable parts of it. The Freshmen become intensely interested in The Merchant of Venice.” Tales of a Wayside Inn. Sohrab and Kustum. The Christmas 1 ’and. and others. Among the selections enjoyed by the Sophomores are th-- following: Vision of Sir Launfal. Deserted Village,’ The Traveler. Silas Marner.” and Julius Ca-sar.” A thorough study of American Literature is made in the Juni r year, alon-i with the varied selections. Among these an1: “As Von Like It.” “Idylls of the Kimr.'’ Macauley’s “Life of Samuel Johnson.” Emerson’s “Essays.’’ and the Sir Roger de Coverly Pa| ors. In the Senior year a thorough knowledge of the bisti r and masters of English Literature is -rained. The Seniors enjoy selections fr in Chaucer. Milton. Shakespeare, and others; also The Tale of Two Cities. “Henry Esmond. and “She Stoops to Conquer.” Six of the eight credits offered in this work are required for graduation. MATHEMATICS Mathematics is the science of spatial and quantitative relations, or better still, the science of necessary conclusions. This is one of the most important subjects in the High School curriculum. As a science. Mathematics is the most definite of all. The pupil need not accept the won! of some one els.- as a law, but can establish the truth for himself. We are taught by this subject to reason logically and n t to jump at conclusions. We take several facts which we know by observation to in- true and by a process of reasoning, draw our conclusions. In the North Manchester Hiirh School eight credits ar - offen-d in this subject. each credit representing a half year's work. Four credits are required, three of which are in Algebra and the --ther usually in Geometry. B- sides this, two more credits are offered in Geometry, one in Commercial Arithmetic and one in Trigonometry. This is one of the strongest departments in the school. GERMAN Five years ago German was added to the eourse in th-- North Manchester high school Since then the cl ass.-s have grown remarkably. This year, the first-year German elass is one of the largest in the school. German Grammar is studied thoroughly in the first year. Sentence structure. inflection, the translation of short stories and th. writing of German letters are among the important features. German conversation i � -sp.-dally emphasized. English is spoken only when absolutely nec ssirv. During the second year, grammar work is continued. There is much work done in both oral and written composition. -Such Ix-.-ks as Banff's Das Kalte Here.” Hillem's “Hbher als die Kirehe. Storm’s Immensee” and the plays. “Der Prozesz’’ and “Einer muss Heiraten.” are translated. Pate Thirty-Three The third and fourth year classes are combined and their work alternates year by year. This year Bacon’s Composition, a systematic study of German Grammar and idioms has been used. Jensen’s “Die Braune Erika,” Schiller’s “Wilhelm Tell” and Meyer’s “Der Schuss von der Kanzel” were translated, in addition to the regular grammar work. Last year the class took up a study of everyday expressions, using “Allta-gliches” as a text. They translated Storm’s “In St. Jurgen,” Goethe's “Hermann und Dorothea” and Schiller’s “Das Lied von der Glocke.” German is spoken almost altogether in the advanced classes. During the coui'se many German poems are learned and the classes stay after school sometimes and sing those which have been set to music. This is greatly enjoyed by all. LATIN The Latin course in our High School is one of the most profitable as well as one of the most interesting. Tt not only gives us a knowledge of ancient classics, but also aids us in speaking correct English, for we are required to translate into (food English. The first year’s work deals principally with the study of Latin Grammar. Much drill is given in pronunciation, syntax, vocabulary and inflections along with the translation of Latin-English and English-Latin sentences. During the latter paid, of this year short paragraphs of connected reading are translated, which prepare the pupil for studying Ciesar. Four books of Ca sar’s Commentaries on the Gallic Wars are required the second year. At fii-st the pupil has many struggles with Csrsar’s “to be about to lie’s.” but soon he becomes familiar with the constructions and interested in Cipsar’s strategic, methods of warfare. Grammar and composition are required during this year. Cicero’s orations are translated during the third year. The three against Cataline and one in addition are required. Cicero is so eloquent and his words seem so real that one is almost sure he can see Cataline sneaking about after dark, calling together his band of conspirators and plotting against his country. Composition and grammar work are continued during this year. The last year is spent, in translating the first six books of Aeneid. one of Ihe world’s greatest epics. The wanderings and misfortunes of Aeneas are very interesting. In studying the Aeneid, one also becomes familiar with Roman and Grecian mythology. Much work in scansion has been done this year by the Virgil class and also some in metrical translation. Interest in recitations in all the Latin classes has been increased by the reading of Latin plays and playing Latin games. DRAWING Art plays a very important part in our school work. It is not compulsory, but, as nearly every one takes it, art can be seen to be interesting as well as instructive. The High School art department is divided into two classes, the Freshmen and Sophomores constituting one class, Ihe Juniors and Seniors the other. In the spring sketching clubs are organized, to draw from nature, learn perspective, etc. Tn the autumn pods are found which make motifs for many beautiful designs. These, along with the characteristic pose drawings, mechanical drawing pastel, and water color drawings, have made many beautiful exhibits, which our school annually displays. This year, two periods a week have been devoted to mechanical drawing. Two lines of work may be taken up—mechanical draughting, or structural and architectural draughting. In all the work printing, tracing and the making of Page Thirty-Four blue prints are practiced. The members of the class are very enthusiastic, and it is thought that it will be necessary to procure much greater facilities to accommodate those who will wish to take it next year. CHEMISTRY Perhaps there are few words on the lips of the intelligent citizen of to-day more than “Sanitation” and “Pure Food.” Some knowledge of Chemical Science is quite necessary for the practical study of these vital problems and it is with such an end in view that the subject of Chemistry is given in our High School. Such a course is also a fitting pre-requisite for work in other sciences as Chemistry finds direct application in medicine, domestic science and physiology. Chemistry is taken up in the Senior year. Three periods per week are given to recitations and four to the laboratory work. In the laboratory the student must work out his own salvation with fear and trembling, with the proper amount of guidance from the instructor, for it is here that the real test comes in the ability to do what has been discussed in the abstract in the recitation. The work consists in the preparation and study of the properties of many of the common elements and their compounds. In the second semester the girls of the class made tests for the purpose of detecting some common food adulterants. Vinegar was tested as to its purity, for artificial coloring and its acid strength. Milk was examined for formaldehyde, boric acid, salicylic acid and other criminal adulterants. The boys continued in their study of some of the rarer elements and did some simple qualitative analysis. Text: Ilessler and Smith. PHYSICS Aside from the fact that Physics affords one of the richest fields for careful and systematic thinking, this science is one of Ihe practical subjects in our High School curriculum, for it deals with the natural phenomena that surrounds us. and leads the pupil to understand and explain the things that he sees. The course consists of a year’s work of four recitation periods per week and two laboratory periods. The subjects studied are: Mechanics and Heat, Electricity and Magnetism, Sound and Light. Text: Gorton. BOTANY The remarkable expansion of botanical science in recent years has immensely enriched our knowledge of plants in every direction, while at the same time it has caused a division of the science into rather sharply-marked parts. So far as investigation for the attainment of new knowledge is concerned, no one of these divisions is more important than the other, for all are of the utmost value and boundless in every direction. But in teaching general courses, selection is imperative, and it is necessary to determine what parts of the science will yield richest returns for the time and effort expended. With this end in view, much that was originally taught in botanical courses is being eliminated in our present methods. Tn the fall the class studied trees, their relation to man. diseases of trees, conservation of our lumber supply and nearly all types of trees growing in this vicinity were classified. Later seed-plants were studied. Germination of seeds under various conditions of soil, food, moisture and heat was taken up in fhe laboratory and direct applications was made to agriculture and horticulture. Some little time was spent on bacteria and the lower plant forms: their relation to disease, decay and preservation of foods. In the spring flowering plants were observed and a collection of the wild flowers of the neighborhood was made. Text: Bergen and Caldwell. Page Thirty-Five HISTORY Tin first year of history is taken up by the Sophomores under the direction of Mr. Sterrett. They turn back 1 he pages of time to the ancient Egyptians, and Phoenicians, then to the rise and fall of the Greeks, their different City States and their wars against the barbarians. Then the magnificent Roman Empire is studied: Ca sar's campaign against the Gauls, the struggle against Hannibal, and finally, the fall of that Empire in 47fi A. 1). In the Junior year they begin with the Dark Ages after the fall of Rome, during the supremacy of different Teutonic tribes. Then follows the gradual emerging of the great kingdom under Charlemagne, the different invasions of England and the final settlement by the Angles and Saxons. Probably the greatest event is the French Revolution with its Reign of Terror. Then after these political upheavals they watch with interest the religious ones—the reform started by Luther, the final separation from the church by Henry VIII. and the great strife brought about in England by it. Fourth year history begins with the discovery of America and takes up to the present time. Tn connection with this, civil government is taken two days of the week. 'I’he History takes up the growth of the country in all its phases, tho separation from England, the struggle for territory, and the freeing of the slaves. Civil government gives the class an idea of the system of government in this country, its formation and how it is carried on. Tt gives each pupil a clear idea of the qualifications of the different governmental officials, the methods of their election, policies and terms of office. SEWING The sewing classes are under the supervision of Mrs. Sexton, with Miss Bertha Shoemaker as assistant. There are two main classes, namely, the Freshmen and Sophomores. Most of the Juniors and Seniors carry extra subjects and few find time to take sewing. Those who do. take with the Sophomore class. Since so many choose different courses, there a re sewing classes once and sometimes twice every day, so that every one can have a chance to take it. During the first semester the girls made Christmas presents. They worked most of the time on embroidering and crocheting. Tn embroidering they were taught many stitches, such as tho cross-stitch, darning, punch work, satin-stitch and eyelet embroidering. Besides crocheting edges for handkerchiefs and other things they made pillow tops, towels and handkerchief cases. At the beginning of the second semester, they took up the art of dress-making. Both classes were taught how to draft patterns. The Freshmen drafted patterns for underwear; the Sophomores, patterns for skirts and waists. After the drafting was completed the girls made garments over the newly completed patterns. MANUAL TRAINING The purpose of Manual Training is to put into reality the idea which the pupil has in mind. First is the formulating of ideas for the particular work. Then he must master the constructive principle. This is done by making models for each principle of the work. After Ihe pupil has completed the preparatory lessons of this sort, lie is allowed to make a certain piece, using the instructions previously learned. The boys of the X. M. IT. ft. are not furnished with as large a room and as many tools as are in many schools. Almost all the boys take it, however, and devote as much time as possible to it. For several years excellent work has been done in this department and under the supervision of Mr. Early, the same high standard has been maintained this year. They are making library tables, porch swings, pedestals, foot stools, music cabinets, magazine racks, hall trees, piano benches and chairs. Pane Thirty-Six Page Thirty-Seven ffiaakrt Skill m m Wt m y I HE school year opened with very good prospects for a splendid basketball team. Both guards and one forward were left from the team of 1912-13, and a competent center and forward were secured this season. Mr. Schaeffer was chosen manager; Forrest Swank, captain; and Howard Smith, yell-leader. The teams practiced and were in fine condition in the early part of the season, but when winter came they had no place in which to play. For a few nights the College authorities kindly let them practice in their gymnasium. The entire school has shown unusual interest in basketball this year. Besides the regular teams which represented the High School as a whole, each class has had a team and there have been some very heated contests between these. On October 24th we played our first game at Urbana. We were favored by a large crowd, which praised our team work. The teams were equally matched in weight and height. After a hard fought battle we won by a score of 29 to 13. The Seniors and Juniors played the first game of the inter-class series. Both teams worked hard, but neither had very good team-work. The Juniors were victors by a score of 21 to 19. On October 30th the Seniors and Juniors played their second game and both sides were highly applauded by the High School. The Seniors having secured more definite signals, had better team-work and won by a score of 36 to 35. The first game between the Sophomores and Freshmen was played on November 3rd. The Freshmen had picked out their team at the beginning of the sea son and had good team work. The Sophomores were larger and expected an easy victory. The game started out, seemingly very evenly matched. Both sides played hard, but the gritty Freshmen came out victorious with a score of 13 to 11. The second game between the Freshmen and Sophomores was one in which every one was interested, because of the boasts of the Sophomores and the sturdy determination of the Freshmen. The game was a hot one from start to finish, but the Freshmen won with a score of 15 to 7. On November 7th North Manchester played the first game with Roann. The Roann team had played several games before and we were expecting a hard fought game. During the first half we played hard and won by a score of 15 to 1. During the second half one of our forwards was knocked out and we ended up with a score of 23 to 13 in North Manchester's favor. The second game with Roann was played on November 13th. Our team felt too safe in securing the game and did not start into the game as they should have. To their sorrow and surprise they lost, the first half, but during the last half they woke up and made a hot wind-up with a score of 24 to 18 in our favor. The second team played their first game with the Chester second team on November 14th. The game was a regular walk-away and the second team worked some excellent signals. The Chester team, although outclassed, put up a stiff fight and the game was called with a score of 24 to 12 in favor of our second team. On November 24th the Freshmen played the first team of Laketon High School at North Manchester. The Freshmen were entirely outclassed as to weight and height, but when they started the game there was not much left of the husky Laketon bunch. The Freshmen played like fiends and won by a score of 37 to 14. On November 21st our second team went to Sidney with full expectation of a glorious victory over the Sidney second team, and in this they were not disappointed. The floor was small and the boys pitched goals from all directions. At the end of the game the score read: North Manchester 36, Sidney 5. We played our first game with Silver Tjake on November 26th. We played hard and used our signals to good advantage. The Silver Lake team depended mostly on three men and by using good judgment we won. Score, 58 to 17. Pa«e Thirty-Eiifhl The second team secured a game with the Roaim second team November 27th and found in this team almost their equal. The first half was fought hard with considerable rough-and-tumble work, but the last half was more quiet an I was won by the N. M. H. S. second team. Score, 29 to 17. On November 5th we played Silver Lake, on the Silver Lake grounds. The ground was hilly and some found playing on it rather “up hill” work. However, we played hard and won with a score of 49 to 23. The last game played in 1919 was by the Freshmen at Laketon, on December 5th. T he Freshmen had been practicing hard and so trimmed the Laketon first team up properly. Score, 23 to 11. (htr first game in 1914 was played at Akron on January 31st. Our center and a guard were ill an 1 not able to play satisfactorily. The Akron team was well organized and we soon saw that we had to play a stiff game. The first half went very well, but owing to the condition of the team and lack of practice, we lost. Score. 2S to 39. Our first team played the Etna Green team at that place, February 13th. We felt pretty sure of a victory, but when the game was started, we found that they had improved greatly since last season. Neither side scored during the first ten minutes, but soon things became more interesting. At the end of the game the score was undecided. Our opponents claimed 23 to 22 in their favor, and we 24 to 23. in ours. JnMrnta (Tmtruamrut Although handicapped by the lack of a floor for practice, the basketball squad early in the season felt a desire to enter the state tournament to be held at Bloomington, March 13th and 14th. A string of victories added fuel to the smouldering fire and the team and school soon felt that a trip to the State University would be a fitting climax to a strenuous season’s work. Friends among the business men materially aided in sending the boys on the trip and on March 12th, with the best wishes of the student body and the citizens, the team left for the south, every man in perfect condition and resolved to do honor to himself, the team, and the school he represented. We played our first game at Bloomington at 8 a. m.. Friday morning, with the Nappanee team. The game started out fast and both sides did some good pass work. At the close of the first half we were ahead by several points. During the last half we did not try to run up scores, but only to do some close guarding, that we might save ourselves for a possible future game. The score was in our favor, 24 to 14. Our second and last game was with the Rochester five at 5 p. m. Friday evening. For the first few minutes the game was slow, but we wound up the first half with a 7 to 2 score in our favor. Both sides began the second half in earnest, but our boys slacked up in their previously good team work, and Rochester won with a score of 22 to 17. ®rark Work Before this year track work has never played an important part in the athletics of the North Manchester schools. A team was organized in the fall of 1913. Mr. Early was elected manager and Ross Ulman, captain. Throughout the year some of the boys kept up practice in running and early in the spring many began to enter into the work energetically. Although very little has been accomplished in previous years, there are prospets of making some very good records this year.

After the first week of school regular practice was begun, with many candidates trying for the different positions. In the first game we were defeated by the Alumni I he score was 1 to 3. This defeat, due to lack of sufficient practice, only inspired us to work harder, so as to perfect ourselves in the national game. This was shown by our games with the College. In our first game with the Commercial Academic team we defeated them with the score of 12 to 9. (treat was the rejoicing at our showing. Critics of baseball say we have a very strong team for young fellows. On our last game played with the all-around College team we defeated them with a score of 4 to 3. This concluded the fall season. This spring more enthusiasm than ever has been shown. Nearly every boy interested in athletics is out for the baseball team. Regular practice has been begun again. Plans are on foot to go to the State meet at Purdue; so there is great rivalry for positions on the team. Aside from this, out-of-town games nr-being arranged for and plans are being made to make baseball self-supporting this year. (Jfcttttta The tennis association of the high school has been organized since 1908. Every year more interest seems to be taken in the game. The Freshmen and Sophomores this year have taken special interest and are developing some fine players. At a meeting of the members of the association this spring. Donald Ulrey was elected president and Eileen Mills, secretary and treasurer. The grounds have been given special attention and are now in excellent condition. So far, because of lack of time and practice, the association has not entered any tournament, but in the near future we hope to be able to enter one and come out victorious.

The high school pupils were taught in the third story of the Young Hotel on Main street. Prior to the year 1875, the schools of North Manchester had been under the .jurisdiction of the township trustee. The town was finally incorporated and bonds for $10,000 were issued by the tii st Town Board. With the money thus realized the erection of the then handsome school building was begun in the summer of 1875, and completed at a cost of $15,000. The members of the first School Board were Mr. L.

In 1885 tin high school course was changed from a three year to a four year course and. there were no graduates that year.

Irpartnmtt of JCthranj Jnatnrrtimt Tn order to prepare the eighth grade to do with facility the reference work required by their instructors during their high school course, a department of library instruction has been added to the curriculum. Four lectures are given by the librarian during the month of March and the pupils are required to do three or four hour’s work in the public library familiarizing themselves with the classification, card catalogues, reference books and periodical indexes. Credit is given for the completion of this course and much interest is taken in it. Page Forty-Six Page Forty-Seven tarnation JJrak E were speeding along through the great Arizona desert. Par away the snow-capped mountains seemed to stand as silent sentinels over the secrets of the desert, but such weird, perhaps, to some people, beautiful scenes no longer attracted me. For the last twenty-four horn’s there had been nothing to see but the so-called “everlasting sage brush and an occasional clump of cacti. I had nearly dropped into slumberland when—“Is this seat taken?” and I was awakened by a man’s deep drawl. On looking him over as he sat down I knew him to be a Westerner. But he was not of the much-pictured “wild and wooly west” type, for he wore no handkerchief around his neck nor did he look like a human arsenal. His manner was quiet and he proved to be fluent in conversation. We soon fell into conversation and it developed that he had been prospecting for silver in the mountains which we were now passing. Gradually the desert and the mountains took new shapes, for with his knowledge of them lie seemed to weave a magic carpet which changed the cold inanimate piles of rocks into treasure-filled hills that were covered with adventures. Suddenly my friend pointed out a mountain peak which towered far above its neighbors. “That,” he said slowly, “is Starvation Peak.” I leaned forward expectantly for the name seemed to be loaded with adventure. The miner, seeing that I was interested told me the story of Starvation Peak. I only wish that I could us his free Western language to tell it, but since that is impossible, I will only tell the story, which ran thus: Early in the nineteenth century, about the time of Monroe’s first presidential term, little was known of Arizona, which was at that time Northern Mexico. No Englishman, so far as is known, had ever explored that part of the country. There were several reasons for this, namely: the hostility of the Indians, the lack of water and the sterileness of the soil. In 1817, however, Richard Roberts, of New Orleans, heard from an old Indian the story of a fertile plateau which he located rather indefinitely in the south-eastern part of New Mexico. Few people gave the story any credence but Richard Roberts organized an exploring party to hunt for the plateau, in the hope of building a town on the broad plain. That is all of the story as far as any other men knew it and the rest was gathered from—but I will tell that later. Tt seems that the party searched three weeks without success. During that time they suffered much from thirst and heat. One of the party, a mere boy in years, nearly died from thirst the second week but was saved by the discovery of a water-hole. Finally, however, their quest was successful. The plain was all it had been reported to lx1, if not more. A spring from some unknown source sprang from the ground and then, after running its course of several miles, disappeared into the earth. The horses could graze on the long grass, which covered the ground and the earth was rich and fertile. There was in truth only one objection to the place and that was the hostility of the Indians who inhabited the surrounding country. The boy, whom I men- Pubc Forty-Eight tioned before, made an important discovery one day. Near the fertile plateau was a high peak which terminated in a sort of plateau. It was entirely barren but was important, because it was accessible only at one point, which in truth was a very dangerous trail. So the party decided to remain here until the heat of the summer was past and then go back East to raise a colonizing company. Until then, in case of an Indian attack, they could climb the peak and there withstand all attacks of the Indians. One day the expected attack was made and because of unequal numbers the explorers did not fight but retreated at once into what they called their •‘stronghold.” It was indeed a stronghold and it was in this that the white men made their mistake. They did not know the cunning and hatred of the savages. Not until they reached the summit of the peak did they realize that while the Indians could not reach them, they could not pass the Indians if they wished to escape. But even that did not trouble them much for they did not think the sieg -would last more than forty-eight hours. The end can lie best told by telling about a letter which the young boy wrote his mother when practically all hope was gone. His letter ran thus: ■‘Dear Mother—Perhaps you may some time in some way get this letter. There seems little chance but I am hoping and praying that you will. The Indians (and here followed the story as I have related it. Later he said)—Only three of us remain now. I selfishly hope that I will not Ik the last to die, for I would surely loose my mind before death released me. “The Indians make no attacks but if any one of us attempt to go down the trail they spy him instantly and shoot him. The men are trying to make me take more than my allowance of water, but 1 will not do it. Later. Richard Roberts just died and my last comrade cannot last long. Later. I am alone—alone— Oh, now T know the full meaning of that word. The last drop of water is gone. What means the awful silence? Goodbye, mother. Kiss little sister for me. Goodbye. I-------. ” When, about two months later, the report of the siege and death of the explorer's was heard in New Orleans from an old Indian, a party was formed for rescuing the bodies. When this party reached the peak it was found that the Indians had not, as was feared, burned the bodies of the brave band. And as the rescuers buried the remains of those first English explorers they stood with uncovered heads and resolved to build a monument on the peak in memory of the dead. Later this was done. The monument is not grand, for it consists of nothing more than a pile of rocks with a marble base, on one side of which is carved, ‘‘Starvation Peak,” with the dead men’s names underneath. On the opposite side are these words: ‘‘To the American women who have sacrificed their happiness and sometimes life that their loved ones might explore and open up the great unknown West.” T was silent. Suddenly the train stopped at a little desert town. “Well,” said my friend, “This is my destination. Goodbye.” lie was gone. And although I do not even know his name, I shall always feel grateful to him for telling me the story which changed my idea of the early pioneer work and hardships, and which made me feel justly proud, I think, of being an American.

Suddenly the schoolbell began to ring. Then you should have seen us. as we jumped up, grabbed books, tains, overshoes and umbrellas and rushed to the door! As we turned the corner a strong puff of wind lifted my tarn from my head, depositing it in a puddle of water. I had just rescued it from a watery grave, when one of the overshoes Midge was wearing, which happened to be mine, came off, causing a second delay in our progress. We proceeded without more accidents until we came to the corner of the school building when Bert's umbrella turned completely inside out, causing her to receive a nice ducking. As we rushed into the lower hall, we bumped into the janitor, almost upsetting him. Slipping out of our wet raincoats we ran up the second flight of stairs, only to be greeted by the stern face of the professor, who made us descend and then walk up properly. When we looked at the interest book several days later and found that two per cent had been taken off on account of being late on that very unfortunate morning, we indeed felt like three very badly used little Freshies. M. L. 17. Paire Fifty-One A iFahlr itt £ lattg (Apologies to George Ade) THE FRESH GUY INMAL in ye olden times in the year 1014 (Annie Dominoes) an unsophisticated jrink entered the North Manchester nut works for the culture of the Intellectual Blimps on his cranium. The poor booh was a sharp, angular guy and at once made a dent in the hard, grey-matter of the Profs, as well as in the soft grey-matter of the variegated and heterogeneous flocks of fowls, who were constantly shooting coy glances at the desire of their hearts, i e., the Fresh Thing. The name of this person, who was a rising young Aemriean, was Reginald Sizzle van Poodle. (There is something in a name, anyway.) R. S. V. P., of course, only hibernated with the other fellows in Nut-Works at class time, for he thought that they were rough stuff, and such stuff got his goat. Reggv had several antique humps on his skull, anyway, for he had them handed to him from his great-great-great-great-great-grandfather, of Pete Stuv-vesant’s time. Pete had, with his silver leg (Rogers 1847), handed them to Reg-gv’s great-groat-great-great-great grandfather on his cranial propensity. For the reason above stated, Reggy’s governor kept him from playing with the low classes. About the second lap of the first week, Reggv got hep to the dream that he was some guy. Tie decided to do things. TTe cast the die by starting the race with Aj-eba, Bottleme. Uandlish, Manual Torture and Dutch from the Kricklum. In the second lap of the first six. Peggy got his first jolt. ’Twas the third period of the day: every day that dame sitting to his right in Bottleme. shot dooming glances at him, and Reggv fell for her. Tt was all off now! Now. Reggv had the dough. That is. his old gent had plenty of the Kale, eke. almighty dollars, etc., etc., etc. So Reggv didn't mind taking the fair one to the “Movies.” Thus he made a date for the middle night of the week. After fussing up for two hours Reggv started for the Apple of his Eye. When he arrived on due time at the house he was entertained by the dame’s kid brother. For you understand, the fair damsel didn't have “on time” written on her character. At last she hove to, and seizing Reggy’s hand said, “Q Sizzle, how sweet you look!” So they left the house and wandered thence to the “movies.” Reggv said goodbye to four jitnies and the grand march began. The bird wished to be seen with Reggv, so she led him clear into the parquet. But alas, alack! They did not notice the two hard, grey-mattered Profs, on the rear row. One pounded Math and the other Dutch. After perusing the show for twice, the return home was started. That which was started, however, ended two hours later, so ’tis said. Reggv, the dear boy, soon after hit the hay and dreamed sweet dreams. The first lap of the next day after the night before, Reggy suffered the torments of Dutch. •‘Reggv, uel)ersetzen Sie den nachsten Satz!” So runs the sad story. “T cannot translate it. I was sick last night,” so antwortete Reggv. “A little sprint to the Assembly room for you,” was the retort. Alas, so the Dutch teacher tied the 23 sign to Reggy. Moral—Never take your dame to the “movies” during week nights! Page Fifty-Two ftalur of Jtfrtmiteljip RIENDSHIP has long been defined as mutual esteem and confidence. Another definition is “Friendship is the strongest Band of Union.” The world is friendly and meets you half way. Friendship formed in sch x l life may he of great importance later. A story is told of two boys who were inseparable. They trudged to school together, worked and played at the same time. After graduation from the high school their paths in life became separated, each following his own Hue of work. For a number of years they corresponded, but eventually lost, trace of each other. One became a prosperous business man. And one day while in the city he recognized in an old ragged man, his old friend. The friendship was renewed and became even stronger than before, and both prospered by it. What friendship really does mean can lx1 seen from this story. For it is a factor in our lives, well worth while, and something that every human being craves. A person may have any number of friends while in prosperity, but when in trouble, his few staunch friends stand by him. Many times such a condition is welcomed, for then it is possible to tell who one’s real and true friends are. But at times people are often so disappointed that they think the world is unfriendly. In the analysis of friendship it may be found to consist of two elements —truth and tenderness. A person cannot be a real friend unless he is true. He must be able to think aloud, dropping all affectation and restraint. Sincerity is what makes friendship, and without it there is no real friendship. Many do not realize the value of true friendship, and when with their friends, spend their time giving compliments, gossiping and indulging in so-called “small talk,” thus covering up all real thought from them. Some time people break away from this and at first, because they omit all compliments and are so out-spoken in their remarks, they are resisted, but later they are admired and can bring every one into true relations with themselves. Tenderness is the other element of friendship. Many do not realize by what great bonds we are held to each other. Often we are bound by blood ties, by love, by hate and by admiration. Many times when our friends are praised we are pleased and also offer some word of praise. We feel pride in the accomplishments of our friends, and are blind to their faults. How often we think their goodness much better than ours, but let us criticise and become cold and the friendship will fall, unable to lx lifted to the same height. The essence of friendship may then be stated as wholeness of heart and trust. Eileen Mills, T5. Day Drrams, Btsuma af IUihs He was sitting in the Chemistry lab., trying to listen to a History recitation, but the odors of amonia and chlorine, which had been generated the day before, got the better of him. He dreamed. “Say, John, for heaven’s sake, turn on the hot water, I don’t want to take a cold bath after that game. Do you know those fellows think our building is great They say we have the best gym in this part of the state. And did you Page Fifty-Three Page Fifty-Four PROPOSED PLAN FOR NEW SCHOOL BUILDINC J hear them talk about our ventilating system, our laboratories and our assembly rooms ? Well, I guess we deserve it, for there is more studying done by the pupils of our school than there is in most schools. Why— James, give the results of the battle of Bennington.” He awoke—yes, alas! to find himself still smelling chlorine, to think of the battle of Bennington, to think of his interest, to think how he would walk a mile that night for athletic practice after being subject all day to hot and cold rooms without ventilation. Dear Headers—That is a fable, possibly exaggerated, but not much. Do you realize the condition of the Central school building, especially the high school rooms? Could you do your most efficient work in rooms varying from 60° to 68° in temperature during the winter or in rooms that are stutVy and warm during the fall and spring. It is impossible for students to do so either. Does it pay to impair the health of the children who come to school? You. who are patrons of the school will say, “No.” Possibly you who are not, will say otherwise and will fight against a new modern building for North Manchester. It is certainly coming to this issue and it certainly is true that they, who fight this with thought of pecuniary interests, are not true American citizens, because they are retarding the physical and mental efficiency of the future generation. Such are the conditions of the North Manchester schools, especially the high school. The pupils are retarded physically, due to lack of proper ventilation, proper heat, and a gymnasium. They are retarded mentally because there is a lack of apparatus, lack of room for different conditions, social and technical. In N. M. II. S. there is hardly any relationship sustained between pupils, parents, and teachers as a group. This is due to the lack of an auditorium, where the parents can be brought, where conventions, meetings and lectures can be given. An auditorium could easily be arranged for in a new school building. The statement regarding the retarded mental ability of the pupils is not given to criticise the faculty, for we can proudly say that we have the strongest corps of teachers in the state for tin? size of the school and general school conditions. Yet it is plain to be seen that their efficiency could be doubled as well as that of the pupils if conditions, under which they worked were favorable. The N. M. II. S. is a growing institution. The rooms are crowded beyond their capacity. Then why not boost the town by having the high school far ex celling any other? This can only be done with a modern school building, for at present both pupils and teachers are at their highest efficiency in the conditions that they have to contend with. Next year it is required by law to install equipment for Domestic Science. There is positively no place in Central building where this could be placed. Aside from lack of room for this, when a new building is built the different technical departments should be given more attention. You have seen year after year the splendid handwork exhibits of the high school. You possibly do not realize that the woodwork is all done in a room 22x38. There is no adequate store room for lumber and no finishing room at all. And for sewing they have one table and three sewing machines. Please imagine what could be accomplished by your children or your friends' children with adequate equipments. Of course, the present building has only been in use thirty-nine years and possibly could be used another period of thirty-nine, that is, if the wind wouldn’t blow it over, for every time the wind blows so, the building shakes. Now, citizens of North Manchester, a new school house will soon be an issue in North Manchester. If you are a loyal citizen and reasonable you will use your influence for a new school building. Arden Strauss, ’14. PiiKt‘ Fifty-Five (Uir rnuir Harm|arfc WONDER what it was that made me dream on the night l efore commencement. It dot's not matter, but I think I can safely assert that it was the strangest vision ever seen by a mortal. I cannot remember all of it, but one part stands out clearly before my mind. It seemed that, all mankind, except myself, had been changed into domestic animals and were living in one great barnyard. The animals seemed to stay in groups as if they were friends of former days. A very lively group on the east side of the barnyard attracted me a great deal, for some strange reason, and I quickly made my way thither. When I reached it. an awful sight met my eyes! I shall never be able to clear that horrible vision from my mind. There, in that group, as happy and joyous as ever, was the Class of 1914, of X. M. II. S., represented by almost every kind of barnyard animals. For a moment I stood senseless, and then gathering my scattered wits I started to see if I could find any of my old friends. My task was not a difficult one. for I soon recognized in each animal some trait which I remembered as belonging to the mem Iters of the Class of 1914. First, 1 noticed a very clean, white, woolly lamb. Its neatness at once reminded me of Arden Strauss. I called him by name, and received a dignified “Ma-a” in reply. I could not stand it, so I turned and fled, my eyes filled with blinding tears. 1 ran on heedlessly until stopped by the loud neigh of a horse. Wiping my eyes, I looked up, and— Honorable reader, my story will be doubted, but there stood a fat old horse, whose constant neighing led me to recognize Ray lllman, whose favorite pas-time has been to say “Nay” in answer to his teachers’ questions. Then, remembering how he liked to kick me down the school steps, with more haste than grace I got out of the way of his heels. Next I came upon a number chickens that were feeding together. I think T said to myself, “Some chickens,” and then recognized them as the Senior girls, I repeated my words heartily. Soon I came to a large pond on which a duck was swimming. Noticing his skill in paddling around, I knew at once that he was Ross Hlman, for you can't make a “cork” swim. A little farther on I stopped to rest in the shade of an old apple tree and began thinking about this awful condition of mankind. I was awakened from my revery by a merry little crow near by. Looking about I saw Devon Olinger in the guise of a bantam rooster. lie was very small, but that, as in the past, made no difference to him, for he was crowing in the same joyous tone with which his laughter rang in by-gone days. Of the others I recollect little. Fred Ebbinghaus, it seems to me, was a large rooster, who was always hovering around the above-mentioned chickens. Harold Dunlap had been changed into man’s l est animal friend, the dog, on account of the dog’s superior intelligence. Robert Strickler, I think, was a tame rabbit, who usually got ahead in the long run. As I try to recall that dreadful vision, I can dimly see the faculty as inhabitants of tin barnyard. But, because I fear too much ink would be used on my page in the interest of the book I shall refrain from telling in what animal shapes they appeared. After seeing all these things I wondered how I alone of all human beings had escaped being changed into an animal. I was stroking my chin meditatively when my fingers touched strange, long whiskers. It was too much. I was the “goat.” Then I awoke. C. L. ’15.

I shall point out to you the places of importance together with their historical significance. 'Phc street we arc now entering is often called Wall Street, having little resemblance. however, to the financial center of New York, except during the High School market. To your right on the far corner, the large brick building erected in a former century, is the Central High School. By special arrangement with the “powers that be’ we are permitted to enter the sacred portals of this institution. The room to your left, the home of the English department, is in charge of the gentleman seated behind the desk, who, despite the prevalent idea that themegrading is nerve-wearing, and frame-racking, is long for this world. Looking up, you may see draped peacefully over the banister, the head-keeper of the interest book. In the alcove to the right is located the central energy which moves the entire machanism of the school. 'Pile precise gentleman descending the broad marble stairs, just opposite, guides the students through the mysterious mysteries of science. He is an illustration of the old saying that “valuable articles are often done up in small packages.” The great doors open into the assembly 1 00111. and so intense is the devotion of these pupils (to study), that not one looks up from his work as we enter. The dignified woman with the eagle eye and the relentless air, seated aloft upon the platform before you, hypnotizes the pupils into perfect order and obedience and occasionally, for a pastime, teaches a little German and Latin. The timid, bashful group to your right is the eighth grade, who are quite overawed by the august presence of the High School. The important-looking gathering occupying the middle of the room, is, in spite of appearances, the Freshman class. To your left are the Sophomores, who have come to realize that the goal has not been reached, and so they trip along with modest step, trying to raise as little dust as possible. If you step over this way, you can have a better view of the next group, the Juniors. The story is told that ever since this class has been in High School, the teachers, in a frantic, despairing effort to persuade them to work, have adopted the plan of complimenting anil commending their attempts. Page Fifty-Seven I wish you to notice carefully the assembly on the extreme left, as I understand this will be your last opportunity to view them as a group, for there is a movement to clear this portion of the room to make way for new attractions. The modest little girl in the front seat, with the pucker in her brow, and tlhe weight of care upon her face is the editor-in-chief of the Annual. The boy to the left is the senior cartoonist for the Annual, but in spite of that he really isn’t a bad fellow. Notice the dreamy, meditative look on the face of the girl on the extreme left. Her thoughts are far away—in fact, in Frantz. Just back of her is Opal, the serious minded, who studies long and hard. The girl to the right is Nora, who finds it hard to learn to he quiet and obedient. On the extreme right is Robert, the impulsive, and back of him sit-s Devon, the large man of the class. On the left sits Ross, the class “grouch.” The gil l who lives next door sits on the extreme left and devotes a small part of her time to study. Marguerite, who sits back of Helen, is another of the “grinds.” On tin right sits Mary, who makes so much noise that it is hard to hear the rest of the class. Harold, on the extreme right, has the solemn look that comes from deep, meditative thinking and long hours spent over Virgil. Seated on the right is Thelma, who contemplates writing a hook on “Life in the Jungles,” which will probably be one of the six liest sellers. On the left sits Ray. He believes that “half a loaf is better than none,” so when he gets an opportunity he rests. Mary, sitting behind Ray. has the air of a general marshalling his troops when she walks around the room. Zerola, on the right, finds school work burdensome and wearing and rest occasionally by going home for a visit. On the left sits Father, who is responsible for much of the hilarity of the class. Mattie sits back of her, and Mattie doesn’t believe that one should work too hard. If studying becomes monotonous, chuck the book into the corner and play. To the right is Orpha, who deserves a toast, but not a roast. Also on the right—-ladies and gentlemen, grab vour hats, the gray streak coming—there, it’s gone!—that, friends, is the business manager of the Annual. We will make our return trip to Burdge’s corner by way of Market street, so-called because of some of the important buildings which mark-it. We have another sight-seeing trip which leaves this point every morning at !• a. m., which takes in Lantzcnhiser's restaurant, Sheller’s bakery, and the Greek’s, with a little visit to the Keystone theater. 3ntmat Oh. I could have the mostest fun With a bean-shooter, or a little squirt-gun, If it wasn’t for the word the teachers love best, That one little word is—“Interest.” I can’t say a word to my nearest chum. I can’t eat candy or even chew gum, I have to sit like a mute with the rest And figure to keep even with my “Interest.’’ Oh, this is my one, my only hope— That that one word will be hung with a rope. But T fear I may try and plan my best. But I'll never get rid of the “Interest.” II. S. ’15.

The Girls’ Glee Club was organized after Christmas and immediately began work on a Chinese operetta, “The Feast of the Little lianterns. The soloists wore Genevieve Frame, Thelma Mummert, Alma Walter and Pauline Freeman. A large chorus in Chinese costumes, carrying fans and lanterns, made a beautiful, dainty and oriental picture. The music of the operetta was very expressive, the stage setting appropriate, and the tone quality of the girls' voices excellent. The Girls’ Glee Club was surely to be congratulated upon their production. The High School Orchestra accompanied and Mrs. Sexton was director. The proceeds were given to the High School ictrola fund.

It was organized at the beginning of the second semester, and has been working diligently ever since, with Mrs. Sexton as director and Eva Freeman as accompanist. They have appeared before the public several times and always met with great approval. They sang at a banquet given by the Commercial Club not long ago. and were received enthusiastically. It is the ambition of every boy, on entering High School, to become a member of the Glee Club. It is an incentive for good chorus work, as the best voices and most diligent readers are selected. This year the Boys’ Glee Club gave a masque party for the Girls’ Glee Club and the faculty and it was agreed that it was the most enjoyable social affair ever given by the Glee Clubs.

When Mrs. Sexton asked for pupils who would like to belong to 11k orchestra, there were eleven boys who responded. With such a good start it seemed that it ought to lx a success. Other pupils entered later. The orchestra practiced an hour and ten minutes every Friday afternoon. It played a few selections for the High School and was appreciated very much. The public was doubtful about its success until it appeared for the first time at the operetta given by the Girls’ (dee Club, and then the people showed genuine surprise at the advancement it had made in such a short time. It sure is to be a permanent organization and many children in the grades are bginning the study of different instruments, being inspired by the idea of becoming members of the High School Orchestra later. ®tnh £ rhuol (f hunts � i l The High School music creates very much enthusiasm among students, teachers and visitors. Two periods a week are devoted to the chorus, which consists of nearly all the high school pupils. An eminent educator from the University of Chicago visited the class this year, in the capacity of inspector, and pronounced it one of tin very best high school choruses he had ever heard. The music used is of the very best class. We have studied selections from tin operas, “Faust,” “II Trovatore,” “Pirates of Penzance,” “Baecocci.” “Aida,” “Tannhauser,” and “Chimes of Normandy.” It is no exaggeration to sav that this high school chorus can sing anything from “Old Black Joe” to “Faust.” The last semester was devoted mainly to the study of the grand opera “Martha,” and the chorus expects to present it before the end of the year. Mrs Sexton, the supervisor, is the conductor of the chorus class. Eva Freeman has shown exceptional ability as an accompanist this year.

The dining room was beautifully decorated in orange and white crepe paper and yellow roses. Each year this banquet is one of the greatest events. It brings teachers and pupils together, not as teachers and pupils, but as guests and hosts. The Juniors had prepared many contests and other interesting entertainment, and as it was April the first we received many things we were not looking for. A sumptuous three course dinner followed. Clay Leonard acted as toastmaster and speeches by the members of the faculty and class presidents were given. Then we sang songs familiar to all. The affair was very successful. We hope that next year the Juniors, as guests, will enjoy themselves as much as we did this year. Page Sixty-Eight Alumni 1882. Nellie (Eichholtz) Wolfe, North Manchester. Emma E.
