In that same year she began to take steps to advance education, and the work is being carried on to the present day. Subscription schools were or- ganized during the year 1884-1885, with Miss Florence Chapman in charge the first year, and Miss Brown the second. In September, 1885, a bond issue of 82,500 was voted, and a brick build- ing was immediately erected. This building is standing today in the block south of the depot and is used as a residence. W. H. Huxon was the first principal. The next three to be elected to the position of principal were Charles Easterling, H. V. Easterling and L. E. Rader. Due to the rapidly growing school population, the building erected in 1885 was soon unable to accommodate the pupils and it became necessary to erect a new building. This building was completed in 1889. John Curran was the first principal in the new building and held the position until 1892. In 1891 a three-year course of study for the high school was adopted by the Board, and remained in effect until 1907, when the school went under the Barnes law, and a four-year course was adopted to meet the require- ments of the law. In 1912 the Normal Training and Domestic Science courses were added. In the fall of 1914 the two cottage buildings were erected. These build- ings are now being used by the iirst four grades. For many years prior to 1926 the need of better school housing accom- modations was the greatest problem with which the citizens of Coldwater were confronted. Chiefly through the untiring efforts of M. F. Stark, and the enduring cooperation of many of the more progressive towns people, our school is no longer twenty years behindg but is right up to now in modern building accommodations. The brick building just east of the main building was erected during the summer of 1925. In this building is the Manual Training shop and the Vocational Agriculture class rooms. The magnificient brick building was completed in the spring of 1926. At present the fifth, sixth seventh and eighth grades occupy a part of the first floor. With the increasing High School enrollment it seems very probable that within a short time the High School will need all of this building and it will be necessary to erect another building to adequately care for the grades. Many improvements have been made on the campus duringthe year 1927-1928. Grass has been planted in the triangle in front of the building ind the rest of the ground smoothed off and sanded. Playground equipment such as teeters merry-go-round and swings have been added i:: l l I t , l l W fl ll 1 i ,n n 056 7 9 2 0'9- 04,0 ,F .

H. S. Soon after we were roughly entertained by the Sopho- mores. In return We gave the Sophies a skating party. The next event was a picnic at Gyp caves, the last a party at Crowe's. The following September only thirty-five returned to avenge them- selves by initiating the innocent little Freshies. We were repaid by a picnic at Ray's. Thirteen of our class attended a Rook party at Deewall's. Junior roll call, five more students missing. Our first social event was a Hallowe'en party at Morton's. Then we had a picnic at Ray's. Our play, Mail Order Brides , was a howling success. The setting for our banquet was a Japanese tea garden. We concluded this year by entertaining the faculty with a picnic at Overocker's. Only twenty-seven reported for service the last year. The first devia- tion from the regular course of study was a picnic at the Cash grove. Next we had a card party at Allderdice's. Then the chime of Wedding Bells was heard. And then we all went to Rich's grove andjumped the rope. The Junior class gave us a big feed. After passing through Scholarship exams, came Baccalaureate services, then Class Day, and last of all Commencement. - SENIOR WILL We, the Senior Class of 1928, of Coldwater, in the County of Comanche, and State of Kansas, do make and publish this last will and testament, while in the possession of sound mind and memory, and do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament, revoking all former wills made by us, on this 17th day of May, A.

Dur- ing the first lap of our voyage we alighted several times on the fields of Activities. In the spring we alighted for a rest. In September Commander Ruth Beeley called us to resume our voyage. We made another successful flight, stopping occasionally to take part in Activities or to drop a passenger who did not care to go on. In the spring we stopped again for a much needed rest. In September, 1927, when our plane had been refueled we were off on another lap of our journey. This time we are also being manned by a capable crew of which Harry Wall is our Commander. Very often on this I' lap of our voyage we have been forced to land on account of illness. Owing to this fact many of our Activities have been delayed. Nevertheless, before our third lap has been completed we will have taken an active part in many activities.

In this time he has been an outstanding example of good American sportmanship. When things have seemed absolutely hopeless, he had never said quit. He has shown the same characteris- tic in his coaching, that made him an outstand- ing letter man in both High School and College, moral courage linked with agressive ability. Besides his School coaching in football and basketball, he has participated in community athletics, being a member of the Coldwater Lions Basketball team. None who saw the Lib- eral-Coldwater game will forget Coach Travis. Besides having ability as coach, Coach Travis reigns supreme in academic work. His collection of specimens for his Biology classes is unequaled in any school of this size. Many col- lege departments would be proud to own such a collection. We dislike to see our coach leave, but he feels he cannot refuse this excellent offer, which means advancement for him, though loss to us. We, the student body, express our appreciation to our coach and' ex- tend wishes for a successful career in his new field of work. . OUR CAPTAIN Yes, folks, this is Red , that hard-hitting, square-playing, quick-thinking fullback, whose crafty head work for the past two years has made him an outstanding player, and the fear of all our opponents. Shelton has finished his career as an all hear much about him from the College sport world in the near future ll I .ll ll l l., l i 'round high school athlete, but we expect to i B w il rl ,I li l l. N, il 000 113.2 AERIAL Page 37 FOOTBALL SEASON When the Great Scorer comes To write against our nameg He writes not what we Won or Lost, But how we played the game. Every upper classman in C. H. S. has seen this little motto that hung over the desk in the office during Mr. Crosswhite's administration. To say the least, we will admit that Mr. Crosswhite chose a big sermon of few words for his life's motto. We have completed another successful season of Football. Coldwater High has a reputation that is hard to beat, for playing clean, square, hard hitting Football. Many members of the squad have fought their last battle on the gridiron for C. H. S. They are now ready for the big game of Life. They will play clean, fight hard, and tackle the big problems of Life as well as they have played attheir favorite sportg and although they may not always get the big end of the S-core, let us hope that when the game is over there will be a good write-up for them in the Books.---R. E. O. The football season opened on September 23, with a home game with Protection. Although Coldwater outplayed her opponent, we failed to get the big end of the score. The next game was at Ashland. In this game there was evidenced the best display of football technique throughout the entire season. Ashland got the long end of the score by a mere safety. The next two games were played on our home Held with Bucklin and Fowler. By this time the team had decided to try its luck away from home, so they went to Haviland and Meade. Both of these games were scoreless ties. Next the team went to Lewis but came home rather a down hearted group, for they had lost 6 to 0. After an intermission the students were glad to have the team on the home field and were greatly rejoiced to win from Trousdale 2 to 0. Greensburg came to visit us. The football season came to a close at Protection on Thanksgiving day. Although we cannot say that the season was successful so far as scores are concerned, yet in other ways it was successful. Our squad has been taught to play clean, cooperative, sportsman-like Football. 1:1 l l l T' l ,l pl nh l. lQ.O Q :LEA l W ll li V7 tl til Nl l , 0 E1 is Aazszmtzzpnn.

We play- ed Ashland two pre-league games and came out victorious in both. The regular league schedule started with Bucklin visiting us on our home court. We came out with the little end of the score in this game. Next time we were more successful. We played Ashland on their court and had the long end of the score. Wilmore and Greensburg were the next two games and were played on our home court. It was now time to take a little trip away from home, so we went to Protection. Coldwater lead the first half but when the final whistle was blown they had the lead, 27 to 17. After a week's hard practice, we took another trip to Bucklin. Our losing streak couldn't last forever, which was evident when we played Ashland on our home court the next Friday. We doubled the score on them. The season was now begin- ning to draw to a close and we yet had to visit Wilmore and Greensburg, which we did the next two Friday's. The season closed on Friday night during the tournament, when we played Protection here. It was the fastest and best game, of the season and showed the Worth of the team and its training. When the score was revealed it was in our favor, 34 to 22. Every- one was doubly happy, not only because we had won, but that we had broken the jinx which Protection had held over us for four years. Then we entered the Greensburg tournament, but did not succeed in gaining any victories because several of the men were not able to go on account of sickness and those who did were still feeling the effects of sick- ness. While the percentage of the games lost was greater than of those won, yet the team played good basketball. The team and its coach should be commended for its clean playing and sportsmanship. The team lost only two of its members this year and the available material gives good prospects for the coming year. l' Tl v T' u f f I 'T l ,I 928 .

The building was attractively decorated in the Hal1owe'en colors. It was well patronized by the citizens of Coldwater and vicinity. g Harry Wall led the procession, followed by Ruth Beeley, the carnival queen, Dixie Lee Shaw and Clifford Collier, Mildred Guizlo and James Roh- ten, Norma Puterbaugh and Wilbur McCool Helen Allderdice, who carried the crown, Margaret Zoe Rich, the little picaninny, Josephine Korff and Mary Lou Hall. The first attraction was the crowning of the queen by Harry Wall. Mary Lou Hall and Josephine Korff rendered some aesthetic dancing.

The change was made with the approval of the latter, because of the school's better auditorium, and because the course in line with educational interests. The Girl Reserves, under the leadership of Mrs. Bertha Griiiith, have sponsored a course sent out by the Extension division of the University of Kansas and the following programs were given throughout the year The King Male Quartete A Message from Mars Apollo Duo Ash Davis Car toonist and the Poor duo Each company was strong in its line and we have given an unusually entertaining and inspirational course All will be glad to know that the school has signed up for a similar course next year under the same supervision as that of the present year --:nr-:mm mmmumm W 1 VT .

Each of these classes is interesting and of considerable benefit to the stu ent Elementary science a Freshman course IS in reality a preparatory course for either of the two advanced courses In this course a little is said about all phases of Science but no great amount of time is spent on any one subiect Biology although a new course at C H S has already been accepted by those who have taken it as an interesting and instructive course In this course all forms of livmg things are studied One half of the course IS given to the study of animal life while the rest is given to the study of plant life A fairly complete collection of plants birds and mammals of this local ity has been obtained for the work in this course Physics although the most difficult is perhaps the most interesting of the three courses Here all the physical laws of nature are studied A very complete assortment of apparatus has been obtamed for performing the experiments which help to explain certaln physical laws I this course there are three days of recitation and two of laboratory Above IS pictured the collection of stuffed birds and mammals In the Jars are many speci mens of insects reptiles and other forms of animal life I . . .

SILSBY The school and community are pleased to give, in this brief word, their respect and honor to our senior citizen, Judge George S. Silsby. He was born more than four-score and ten years ago in far off Bangor, Maine. Nearly the last score of those years he has lived in the West, in Kansas and in Coldwater. We have learned to honor him, not alone for his great length of days, but for the way in which these days have been lived. He is to us an example of a long life well and norm- ally lived, without petty faults or great ex- cesses. Hi-s life appears as harmonious as the music which he loves, and to which he has given the greater part of his life. In his real estate office, in his duties as police judge, and in music circles, he still has a worthy part in the activities of the community. A courteous, kindly and eflicient gentle- man, he has shown us that one can grow old gracefully and retain life's satisfactions and usefulness to an unusual age. To the long life already granted him, it is the sin- cere wish of his many friends, that many happy years be added Flip John s a nice chap but he s terr1bly tight Flap He 1sn t tight he s saving for a rainy day Flip Rainy day me eye he s saving for a flood .- 'T l l H ,I l li 'I I l o l.0l 4933 l l . .

All old accounts were checked that were left by former classes. The oldest account was very small, being 351.11 and had been in the Coldwater National Bank for twelve years. All school organizations were re- quired to deposit funds in the School Bank. All of the school cooperated. The superin- tendent acted as cashier using receipts for every deposit and checking his accounts with accounts in the National Bank. Results of the system were as follows: 1. Any organization in school could tell in an instant their cash balance. 2. The student treasurer is given valuable training in keeping accounts. 3. The banks were relieved of keeping separate accounts. 4. The occasional financial statements re- vealed a startling amount of money that was raised during the year by all organizations in school. 5. A tendency for the organizations to pay accounts more systemtically. , A Chinese definition of Teacher Teacher teacher all day teacher night she markee papers Nevee creepee sleepee no one kissee one hugee poor old maidee no one lovee Elyda F I don t know Miss Stough Silly Lettuce Alone Miss Stough: What is Honeymoon Salad? 0'o - ' ...-,' 3, O 9 0 :I l h W' tl ,I V- l l l l 12 JEL IE Im II EIL IL PIKE THEATRE BEST PHOTOPLA YS A T ALL TIMES P.

I THE GYP CAVE Many picnickers and others visit during the summer months the Gyp Cave, located in southeastern part of Comanche county. In its rocky vestibule one can find cool comfort on the hottest days. A clear pool of water is in the outer room and in its inner dark chamber a larger underground body of water seldom if ever traversed by sightseer, though some of the most venturesome have claimed to have gone through the narrow aperture and swam its inky water to the exit of the cave In the outer rooms are found interest- ing gyp deposits and numerous evidences that the cave has been the scene of many a happy picnicking party.

These large salt areas are unusual in nature, and are visited each year by scientists from all over the U. S. who wish to study the depos- its, and by tourists and sightseers who have heardof the beauty of these plains which from a distance appear to be vast fields of ice or snow. The waters of the small Salt river or creek flowing through the plains are so charged with salt that they quickly des- integrate, or eat up, articles placed in them. Old residents in the vicinity, long ago ln-arned that the salt of the plains, in its natural state, could be used for curing meats or table use. Men near the plains have for many years freighted it by wagon, to sell to cattlemen who still use it for their cattle. Several years ago a corporation started the erection of a million dollar plant for the drstillmg and refining of salt from the waters of the river for commercial purposes but a cyclone wrecked the buildings and they have never been rebuilt The Salt Plains are well worth a casual visit or a careful study being one of the natural wonders of this section of the coun r Miss Foltz Will somebody please trans late Haec in Gallia est impotantus Ruth O Hike into Gaul it s important Hally What makes you breathe so fast?

The rest of the junk in the picture is the re- mains of a large manufacturing plant used for the distilling of illegal intoxicating bever- ages, commonly called corn , although no corn was used to make the big drinks that came from this place. Perhaps some of the gang look a little sick, but really they aren't drunkg no, just 'Tagged out after a little hike over the hills. This still and the four men who were operating it were captured on October 22, 1927, by Federal oilicers from Enid, Okla- homa. They were assisted by law enforce- ment officers from this county and from Buf- falo, Oklahoma. The still was located on the Osbourn ranch in Woods County, Okla- homa, but Mr. Osbourn says that he knew nothing about the still being there until he saw it the day of the raid. ,l, Miss Vance: But why are those trees bending over so far?'l Mr. Perrill: You would bend over too if you were as full of green apples as those trees are Maris White Theres something I like about you Mary Cooper What is it?

Considerable criticism has been made of the way in which the 358 000 O00 fund acquired from the 2 cent tax on gasoline motor car license fees and local taxes has been expended for the upkeep and building of our roads. Of this fund S3 800 000 was last yearr under the direct supervision of the state highway commission the remainder being used by the county commis sioners on county systems On January 1 of this year Kansas had a total of 1352 miles of graveled roads 954 miles of hard surfaced roads and about 600 miles of graded road ready for surfacing This year the state plans to build 90 miles of hard sur grading and culve ting and many links over the state will be connected In these improvements the state is limited by law to paying one fourththe cost The Kansas highway commission has recently completed a map of the surfaced high way of the state intended to show the weakness of the present system of road building in Kan sas The map shows no connected roads except in three sections in the northeast southeast and south central parts of the state while the state system aims to connect all the county seats and market centers and to make cross state highways On the other hand the counties claim that if full power is given the state the main highways would be built and maintained to the exclusion of the rural roads while the farmer would continue to pay his quota of ex pense Meanwhile the common tax paying car reducing citizen hopes and expects that the controversy between the state and county officials will ultimately be adJusted amicably and to the best interests of all concerned 7:4 oP'E'k' HOMA l X Xa rd A l ,' I ore 1 y l P 5 I If ' 2 ZS H' E ' l 3 -- f Q Q , , , U ' U4 zz ' I ' Z , . , : O I EL M 5, lu ' - ' 3 JU E ..

The members of this company were all boosters for the new town, and in a few months homeseekers were arriving daily. Dozens of small frame buildings were built, and Coldwater, Kansas was on the map. The nearest railroad towns at that time were Larned, Kinsley and Medicine Lodge, and supplies were freighted from those points. There were no laidout roads or bridges and many were the difficulties of wagon trains and freighters in those days, but in spite of all hindrances the town built up quite rapidly in all lines of business. The first substantial brick building was built in 1886 by Sombart and Miller on the present site of the I. O. O. F. building, but it burned down in 1892 and wasn't1'e- placed. But few of the original buildings remain, one of them being the frame structure now occupied by Murray's studio on East Main street. In 1887 the railroad was completed through the county, and the business of the livery stable, stage lines and freighters was decreasedvand with the coming of the autos, became a thing of the past. The first churches, both frame buildings, in the town were built about this time, the M. E. on a site north of the Betzer prop- erties and Presbyterian on its present site, the latter being replaced about 25 years later by an adequate brick structure. All more recent business buildings have been built of fireproof ma- terials, and during the last two years a new school house and court house and several business structures have been built, adding greatly to the beauty of the town. Several new buildings are scheduled to be erected within the next few months, also a municipal swimming pool. A good telephone system has been in operation for about 20 years and the city water and light company has given good service since 1911. Coldwater is showing a healthy progress and is as good a town as any of her size in the state.
