Four short years ago a group of young people gathered at the Corry High School and after being pushed one way and then the other, took the name of Freshmen and started on a four year course of higher school life. All went well and in about a month we the class of 1920, were organized for good. As a class we were only one hundred and two strong and showed great talent in electing the following officers: Cameron Hoenes, president; Lee Whittlesey, vice president; Fern Smith, treasurer, and Francis Blair, secretary. A short time later Roy Williams was chosen as class reporter for the Owl and Merrill Wilcox was to represent us in the Student’s Council. This was a live wire year and we participated in several sleigh-rides, some of which proved to be a great success. We also won secot d prize for the Hallowe’en float, furnished recruits for the Cadet Company, supported the Red Cross movement and took our share of room at all of the Glee Club rehearsals. We ended our first year with a picnic at Findley Lake and were firmly resolved to stand by our class and dear old Corry High. Our next year was started in September and the following officers were elected: Lee Whittlesey, president; Park Weaver, vice president; Marion Doane, treasurer and Francis Blair secretary. This year our spirit was blended with the other three classes forming a strong Corry High School spirit which in turn stood wholly for America. In many ways this spirit was manifested and we always went over the top in the Y. M. C. A., War Saving Stamps, Red Cross and Liberty Bond drives. Toward the end of the year, we enjoyed single session or at least the afternoon part of it and closed our year with another picnic at Findley Lake. Page Eleven Our Junior year opened much the same as our last one closed. We still continued our single session plan and worked hard in anticipation of the Junior-Senior reception. The reception proved a great success and we were congratulated by the Seniors. Our class spirit had not yet revived to its old standard and we only waited for our Senior year to start things booming again. At last September came and we entered Corry High as dignified Seniors, fifty-five strong. We soon saw the need of a little more “Pep” and with the help of the Faculty, the Athlectic Association was formed. This was a beginning and soon class spirit made its appearance. This year after much trouble caused by the Juniors we succeeded in getting the first prize for the best Hallowe’en float. A Year Book staff was appointed and after much labor and seme u'orry Four Leaf Clover is presented to the public. Forty-four of our number took part at commencement and passed into the greater school of Life.

We had been anticipating this event for sometime with mingled emotions of fear and longing, nevertheless it was with a sigh of relief that we found ourselves nearly one hundred strong, settled in our respective sections. The class was organized with the following officers. George Wright, president; Walter Lander, vice-president; Helen Heath, secretary; and Glenn Dickson, treasurer. In January we attempted a sleigh-ride but owing to difficulties caused by a blizzard, we returned to Eastern Star Hall, where a good time was enjoyed by all. We took part in the High School organizations, such as the Glee Club, Orchestra, Basketball, and did our share in supporting the Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., and Liberty Bond drives. The following year we entered school as dignified Sophomores and elected George Wright, president; Glenn Dickson, vice-president; Marion Thompson, secretary; and Thomas Burkhardt treasurer. We still continued with our war-work and enjoyed single session throughout the year. This uneventful year ended with a picnic at Findley Lake. We entered our Junior year with a determination to make our class a factor in Corry High School and at once elected Elwin McCray, president; Anna Downey, vice-president; and Marion Thompson, secretary and treasurer. Later Editha Verfurth was appointed class reporter for the High School Notes. The first demonstration of our united efforts was the winning of first prize in the Athletic Association Membership contest. Our labors were rewarded by a beautiful pen-ant in the class colors. At Hallowe’en we arranged a fine float but were disapointcd in not receiving first prize. However we more than made up this failure by our successful efforts in entertaining the Seniors at the annual Junior-Senior Reception and Banquet. We also organized a basketball team which won two-thirds of the games played. We hope to close this year with a picnic at Findley Lake and are looking forward to next year when we will distinguish ourselves as Seniors.

The class of’21 gave its reception Friday, January 23d, at the State Armory. When the guests had assembled we sat down to a very enjoyable banquet served by Mrs. Hoenes. The dining room was decorated in green and white, the Senior colors. The chandeliers and tables were trimmed in strips of green crepe paper while two large 20’s adorned the walls. The favors were green and white rose buds filled with salted nuts, the color scheme was carried out even to the green 20 in the ice cream. Mr. Monroe acted as toast master, introducing each speaker with a few humorous remarks. El win McCray, president of the Junior Class, very fittingly welcomed the guests. The response was made by the Senior president, Lee Whittlesey. Supt. Naegle then gave an interesting and inspiring talk on “Self Starters,” after which Mr. Sheen spoke briefly on the possibilities of more extensive athletics in the High School. We then returned to the dance hall which had been decorated under Mrs. Pain’s direction in the purple and white of the Juniors. Flower covered lattice work was suspended from the ceiling and purple and white streamers were draped from this to the walls. A large lantern in the Junior colors and numerals hung in the center. Window draperies, wicker furniture and lamps around the edge added much to the home-like appearance. A flashlight picture was taken in front of the orchestra platform which was also picturesquely decorated. The dancing began at nine thirty, the grand march being led by the Rev. Mr. Ashton and Miss Dorothy Waller, and was enjoyed by all. Our reception was a success and an event which will remain long in our memories.

We were the class of ’22, nearly a hundred strong. We soon accustomed ourselves to the mysterious ways of the school and organized as a class with the election of the following officers: Ellis Troy, president; Jack Giblin, vice president; Lulu Mourton, secretary; Gracia Dickson, treasurer. With the exception of a very enjoyable picnic trip to Lake Columbus at the close of the school year, we did not enter very fully into High School activities. Our motto was “Watch and Wait.” Upon gaining the honored title of Sophomores in the fall of 1919 we entered into High School doings with a zest such as was befitting the Class of’22. We elected the following officers: Lyle Bolding, president; Lulu Mourton, vice president; Alice Higgins, treasurer; Lucille Heath, secretary. Later George Mulderick was appointed as class reporter for the C. H. S. Notes. We began our activities by carrying off first honors in the Hallowe’en parade. A great deal of credit is due to the class for this and especially to those members who with Mrs. Pain’s assistance worked faithfully to make our float a complete success. During the winter our activities have been numerous. Three sleighrides have been enjoyed, especially one to Spring Creek, the pleasures of which will not soon be forgtten by the thirty-five or more who participated. As we have done in the past, so we hope to do in the future, that the record of the Class of ’22 will be a credit to Corry High School.

The teachers heaved a sigh of relief as they gazed into our handsome, intelligent faces. We were given our schedules and went through the terrible ordeal of finding our class-rooms. This we did successfully except tor a few mistakes. The morning after the “day before” we were welcomed into chapel by a rousing cheer from the upper classes. Some time after this, we organized our class and elected the following officers: Max Hoenes, president; Barrett Marsh, vice-president; Dorothy Loveland, secretary; Isabelle Edwards, treasurer. Later, we elected Barrett Marth, president, on the resignation of Max Hoenes. Upon his resignation, we chose for president C. Sumner Bentley, Jr. who now holds the office. During the winter the different classes were assigned a special morning to furnish the program for chapel. The day before Christmas vacation we presented The Bird’s Christmas Carol” which in our minds, at least, carried off the prize. It even brought tears to the eyes of some of the Juniors and Seniors. In January we enjoyed a sleighride to Spring Creek, where we visited at the home of Doris Paige. Refreshments were served, after which some time was spent in games and dancing. The Freshmen have taken part in athletics also, giving to the girls’ team, two of the star players. Pajfc Thirty-seven Puttr Thirty-cijjht Athletic Association 3? For several years back, nothing has been done in Corry High School along the Athletic line. This year the school formed an Athletic Association and the following officers were elected: George Wright, president; Cameron Hoenes, vice-president; Mary Morrell, secretary; Lee Whittlesey, treasurer, with Lee Whittlesey and William Johnson, cheer leaders. Each member paid 50c which entitled him to a membership ticket, good for all the Basketball games during the entire season. Nearly 100% of the students joined the Association. The smouldering spirit of Corry High sprang into life with the birth of many of the school yells which were used freely at the games under the competant direction of the cheer leaders. The mass meetings held before each home game aroused the students and brought them out in force, together with their ‘‘megaphones” to every game. The yells not only helped the players but brought many outsiders to the games. It was said by the manager of the Keystone team that the yells alone were worth the price of admission, as they brought back to the public the memory of the good old days “they” spent in Corry Hi. The Athletic debt which had been standing for several years was paid in full this year by the classes of‘19 and‘20, the former donating $40, while the balance, $25, was given by the class of 1920. The Association held a dance in the Maccabee Hall, Tuesday evening, September 16, 1919. A good crowd was present and about $50 was cleared. The Basketball teams organized this year have done their part in reviving the spirit of the school. The boys and girls both have shown fine teamwork and faithful practice, and under the excellent coaching of Mr. Sheen have played some good fast games. The teams lined up as follows: Girls Center M. Spicsman Left Forward M. Thompson Right Forward D. Loveland Right Guard R. Hall Left Guard N. Williams Substitutes F. Arnold, M. Spiesman Eoys C. Hoenes H. Morrison L. Loveland G. Wright R. Mortz F.

Many of the teams played were composed of experienced players who had worked together three and four years, while our boys were only organized this year. The girls won 3 of the 7 games they played, which was a very creditable showing considering the handicap of their late start. This year marks the nativity of our High School Athletic Association and we sincerely hope that it will not be its end, but that it will grow and become more prosperous each year. Pa� jc Fony-onc Page Forty-two H« n ltoos((‘r It How many here are boosters Of dear old Corry High? I see that’s a needless question, All hands are raised up high. The joy of life’s in boostin’ A knocker feels so blue, That when he starts a knockin’ You get the feelin’ too. When first we entered here, All things were on the hum. Our class sure did its best, In all the work and fun. We entered every contest And boosted long and fast; We raised the standard always And held it to the last. And then came war in Europe; This almost made us blue. We gave up all our pleasures. To pay our Country’s due. The best of our boys were taken. The ones most full of vim; And it left our poor old High School A lookin’ pretty slim. But when came warlike measures, Did you see our courage drop? You bet you didn’t, students, We went right o’er the top. So if you’re curious, students, Drop in and have a look. And now the war is ended Where must that spirit go? Let us boost for Corry High School, And make our colors show. You wonder why I write this? It’s just to demonstrate That the “Pep” ne’er left the High School, As I have heard of late. I heard some folks a talkin’, And this is what they said: “For the last two years the High School Has acted almost dead.” So when these verselets you have read, I’m sure you’ll understand Just why 1 am a booster. And you’ll join the happy band. -E.T.W. ’20 Pajjc Forty-four Page Forty-five The Treasure Hunt T One day during the first week in December, when the ground was covered with its first carpet of snow, Miss Thomas received a wireless from Captain Kidd that certain treasure which the deceased Captain was forced to leave behind him was buried in Collin’s Woods, near Corry; and that the students of Corry High School were to be granted the privilege of searching for said treasure. A few days later, a second message was received, which ordered that two searching parties be equipped with all needed tools, and under the leadership of certain chosen captains, go forth following carefully certain explicitly written directions. The Captain promised, on the word of a dead pirate, that the buried treasure would be found if his orders were obeyed to the letter. As a result, one afternoon when the sun was sinking in the west, leaving on the snowy hills a trail of orange light, two bands of eager students left the High School, ready for the search. The air was clear and cold, giving zest to the blood, and all were enthusiastic in their anticipation of acquiring much wealth. Directions (when they could be interpretated) were carefully followed, rough and frozen roads were tramped over with no thought of the sore feet of the morrow. Hills were climbed, and barbed wire fences scrambled over, not. however, without protestations from the girls. Soon someone spied the light of a great fire in the distance a-mong the silent trees and all made a rush in that direction. The fire calmly went out just as the last party arrived, but thru the valiant efforts of certain boys, who do not wish their names to appear in print, it was finally revived. Then began an interesting hunt for the treasure which was found exactly as specified by the lamented Captian. When it was all collected, the tired hunters gathered about the fire to count it, and thoroughly digest the extent of their find. After all had been counted, and the head of the Mathematics Department had been called on to settle several disputed counts, the fire was stamped out and the treasure seekers started for home, well satisfied with their hunt. -M. E. K. Pa c Fony-six A Y. M. ('. A. for ( orry The character of a city is usually judged by two kinds of things, first the things it has, and secondly, the things it does not have, very much as an individual is sized up according to the things he docs and the things he does not do. We fully realize that certain possessions are an asset to any community, while certain others area decided liability. Good citizens are desirous of securing the former and disposing of the latter. Clean city government, honest and forceful administrative officers, high-class schools, practical and well supported churches, thriving industries—all these are factors that tend toward the uplift and development of honorable citizenship. Without such elements as these we would soon be stagnating, individually and collectively, in pools of unprogressiveness if not overwhelmed with waves of Bolshevism, Communism, or what not. In this day of the Twentieth Century no city, state or nation can sit on the fence and watch the procession file by; there must be either progress or decay. The day of watchful waiting” and neutrality is past! You are either a live one or a dead one! Just at present Americanism and Americanization are the watchwords of the hour; the eyes of our leaders are turned now as never before to the unescapable necessity of developing citizens who appreciate the weighty duties of citizenship; who sense what a free country means to them and who are willing and able to assume the duties that devolve upon free peoples in a democracy. Such obligations are not encountered in an autocracy; there the only idea that needs to be instilled into the minds of the people is to OBEY—the rulers, kings, czars, etc., will do the rest. Not so with free peoples; a democracy can exist only with an educated citizenry as a foundation, hence the necessity of utilizing every possible means for the production of a class of citizens who know what they need and know at the same time how to procure it. One of the big institutions of our country that has had a powerful influence in the development of Americanism during recent years, and one that is not at present represented in Corry, is the Young Men’s Christian Association. The absence of this organization is very conspicious to strangers coming to our city. Some effort Page Forty- cvcn has been made in rhe past to secure a Y. M. C. A., but for some reason or another, this project still remains to be realized. Apparently. it is a proposition which needs some real wide-awake, energetic, red-blooded stimulation by those citizens interested in the welfare of our young men. Or course it is not proposed that a Y. M. C.A.in any community is a cure-all for all ills that exist, socially and morally, in that community; it can only do its part in the civic life of which it forms apart. Neither is the Y. M. C. A. a perfect institution, and for that reason it meets with opposition on the part of some; like the church,the school, or any other institution controlled by humans, it has its weaknesses, but must not be over-ruled on that account. As one surveys the present situation in Corry, it would seem that there is a need that could be very creditably met by the establishment of a Y. M. C. A. Under existing conditions fathers have their lodges to which they may repair for social fellowship, mothers and sisters have their literary and social clubs in which to secure satisfaction for their social appetites, the young men have, chiefly, the public pool room. Let any right thinking individual ask himself candidly if we are doing what we should to provide proper surroundings without at least making some worth while effort to provide something better? Active boyhood and vigorous young manhood must be provided with some forms of activity. If this activity is not made of a healthy, constructive kind, it will be very likely to degenerate into an unhealthy, destructive kind. If proper supervision is not provided, it will flourish without supervision. The Y.M.C.A. because of its nature is best able to control these conditions by virtue of its close contact with practically every side of young life. Thru its physical department it can direct and supervise the physical and athletic activities, many of which are now undirected and uncontrolled. It is possible to accomodate in this department, as in others, boys and men of practically all ages. By means of its religious department, it can reach and teach many who are not now reached through any cither source. Furthermore, this work is purely optional, no one being included who does not of his own free will express his desire for it. Thru the educational department much can be done to supplement other educational institutions; reading room; night-school and Americanization classes often comprise a large part of the work done by the Y. M. C. A. In addition, it has often been discovered that the Y. M. C. A. forms a most convenient organization thru which to work for various items of civic betterment. In fact, in some instances the Y. M. C. A. has acted as the leader in work of this kind. In conclusion, it may be ventured that the probabilites are that it is not a lack of conviction that a Y. M. C. A. would be an asset to Corry, which prevents as from having this institution, but rather the lack of sufficient initiative and leadership so indispensable in any enterprise of this nature. It is hoped that this be forthcoming. 4? °8? The (iyiiimtsiiiin Problem ■v It is only too self evident that Corry High School needs a gymnasium. The question now is, “When will we get it?” For many years past Corry has been handicapped by not having a modernly equipped gym where the students could enjoy a few hours of recreation. With the advance of modern education, the gymnasium becomes a neccssity-not a luxury. In fact it has become so important a question that many states have passed laws stating that every high school in that state shall have a gymnasium and that it shall add a course in Physical Training to its curriculum. The results springing from such action have been astonishing. Many schools that have been quite unknown heretofore have become very prominent in the eyes of the public through their athletic teams. Not only does it add prestige to the School by turning out good teams but a gymnasium is a source of enjoyment to all of the students, because of the hours spent there in recreation. Some time ago the prospects for a gym in Corry Hi looked very bright, but events have turned out contrary to expectations. A very promising plan was presented to the school authorities by some prominent citizens who were interested in athletics. It was proposed to remodel the present auditorium which is on the second floor of the High School building into a gym. To accomplish this would mean to remove the stationary seats and to level the present raised floor. Reliable authorities placed the maximum cost of this operation at two thousand dollars. This would be obtaining a gym at a very reasonable figure. The present auditorium would make an ideal gym gccause of its sire. It would not need additional dressing rooms because it has two spacious rooms that could he used for this purpose There is also room for the installation of shower baths. In view of the fact that the present auditorium is used on an average of not more than fifteen times a year, and that we pay fifteen dollars a week rent during the basketball season, it would seem that a gymnasium owned by the school would soon pay for itself. This plan is the most feasible one that has been presented and should be given every consideration before it is rejected. I wish 1 was a river, as I have often said; I’d never go to school at all, but calmly lie in bed. Principal--“What do you expect to be when you graduate?

PaH«r Fitcy The following ad was seen in a farm journal by our farmer friend, C. Hall: ‘Send me one dollar and I will mail you by return mail an appliance that I will guarantee to be a sure killer for Potato Bugs.” As Clyde was botherd with potato bugs on his prize field, he sent the dollar and received two blocks by mail a few days later with the following directions: “First catch the bug; Second, place the bug on the block numbered 1: Third, press block No. 2 firmly on the bug on block No. 1 and repeat the operation until the field is free from bugs.” Clyde said that he thought it might work but he didn’t know which block to put the bug on as they had neglected to number theip. Paul S. “I had a funny dream last night.” Wilson. “What did you dream?” Paul S. “I dreamed that I was eating flannel pie at Sheffield and when I woke up half the blanket was gone.” There is a certain student who sat behind the post on the North side of the study hall the first part of the year that is very absent minded. One night his room-mate was awakened by the following: ‘“Let me see, what was I doing? Oh yes, sleeping.” Miss Thomas. “How do we get rid of the minus signs in this problem?

Twice the cry was repeated; then all was quiet again. She would lay another egg tomorrow. Mr. Monroe. (In Chemistry Lab.) “Did you filter this? Mortz. No, I was afraid it wouldn’t stand the strain.” Page Fifcy-one Domestic Art mul Science In the year of 1910, Domestic Art was started in Corry Hi. The Department is located in the Northeast room, formerly occupied by our Public Library. Here the girls of the sixth and seventh grades are given sewing instructions for one hour each week. The girls of the High School are also given sewing instructions for two years. Two periods each week. The Domestic Science department is situated on the basement floor. Here the eighth grades and the High School girls learn the essentials in cooking. MniinnI Training V The Manual Training department of Corry High School was established in 1910. It was used several years chiefly by the seventh, eighth and ninth grades, though High School students were not barred. Upon the elimination of the ninth or Grammar Grade, the sixth grade filled the vacancy and from then on the efficiency and value of the department has been remarkable. For the past few years the Manual Training work has not been displayed as was formerly the custom but as a whole the work is better than ever before. The teaching of this subject is done on a fixed basis, that is, certain things are made which convey their respective lesson to the students. In this way the student soon learns the lesson and by putting it into practical use remembers it. Many people have objected to this department thinking that only those who intend to be carpenters should take up this subject. This is not so however, as it is not to fit a boy for carpentry, but to develop his mind, teach him some of the essentials of mechanics and to give him facts which any man should and would be glad to possess. Page Fifty-two Corry Iliuli School Notes Early this year the need of a High School publication was felt. The plan of resuming the monthly publication of the “Owl” was considered but it did not seem wise on account of the heavy expense. By the kindness of the Journal and through it’s columns we were able, partly, to bring before the public the happenings in the Corry High School. Every Wednesday night the Journal published for us the “C. H. S. Notes.” These notes included brief items of school events occuring during the week. The staff who edited these notes was as follows; editor-in-chief, Lee Whittlesey; class reporters, Lloyd Thomas, ‘20, Editha Verfuth, ’21, George Muldcrick, ’22, Jewell Naylor, ’23, typists; Anna LaPaze, Harold Wood. ■j, % Kiillclin llonrd Wanted—A perfect young man.

Chorus—Raise the chorus, speed it onward, Loud our praises tell; Hail to thee, dear Corry High School, Hail, all hail to thee.

Ever be our song. Tho' from here our paths may sever, And we distant roam; Still abides the memory ever Of our Corry home. Look I’lousiint 'i- We cannot of course all be handsome, And it’s hard for us all to be good. We are sure now and then to be lonesome, And we don’t always do as we should. To be patient is not always easy, To be cheerful is much harder still; But at least we can always be pleasant. If we make up our minds that we will. And it pays every time to look kindly, Although you feel worried and blue; If you smile at the world and be cheerful, The world will smile back at you. So try to brace up and look pleasant. No matter how low you are down. Good humor is always contagious, But you banish your friends when you frown: T. K. Pajjc Fifty-seven The Tjibernticle Hally T It was on Hallow’een Day that the Rev. Mr. Miller and his party came up to the High School for chapel and incidentally invited us to have a high school rally at the Tabernacle some night the following week. Friday night was decided upon, and plans were at once made to make the rally a memorable event. A day or two later, someone had the inspiration that perhaps the students would enjoy having supper together before going to the Tabernacle. So the faculty put their heads together, with the result that plans were soon under way to serve about one hundred and fifty hungry students before the evening service. At six o’clock Friday evening, all was ready for the feed. First, the students joined in singing the “Alma Mater” and in cheering for the school and for their respective classes. Lee Whittlesey was the cheer leader, and was right in his element. Such a procedure was certainly a good appetizer, judging from the amount of food consumed by the cheering students. After everyone who was not too bashful to ask for more was satisfied, a parade was formed, led by the city band, and all marched to the Tabernacle. Arriving at the Tabernacle, the students sang more songs and gave more yells, then settled themselves to listen to the sermon. Mr. Miller showed his grasp of the religious problems of youth by his masterful handling of his subject. A large majority of the students present responded to the call to dedicate their lives to Christian manhood and womanhood. After it was all over, many expressed the wish that such rallies where all the students could get together could he held frequently. The chief difficulty,however.is finding a place where all would feel free to go. If the High School only had a gymnasium or the city a community center, such a need would be supplied. T T T Here’s to the Janitor. If he will but excuse us, We will call him what he does us.

Who never to himself hath said, “My trade of late is getting bad, I’ll try another ten inch ad.” If such there be, go mark him well, For him no bank account shall swell, No angel watch the golden stair, To welcome home a millionaire. The man who never asks for trade, By local line or ad displayed, Cares more for rest than worldly gain, And patronage but gives him pain. Tread lightly, friend, let not rude sound, Disturb his solitude profound. Here let him live in calm repose, Unsought except by men he owes. And when he dies, go plant him deep, Let nothing break his dreamless sleep Where no rude clamor may dispel. The quiet that he loved so well. And that the world may know its loss, Place on his grave a wreath of moss, And on a stone above, “Here lie A chump who wouldn’t advertise.” —Ex.
