U I UP98 B yZ S'ro y I f Puk five THE C O R R I A N ior History ONE bright September Morning in 1919 A bunch of addle-pated Freshmen could be seen Perambulating around The halls of our Dear old High School Though, at the time Nobody knew it We were destined To be the famous Class of ’23. Well, like all Freshmen We thought we had Reached the Zenith Of achievement And as the teachers Were so well pleased With the glaring signs Of our budding genius Our big opinions Grew bigger and bigger. Those were the days. Remember the time The upper classmen “Clapped us in” When we went To Chapel, and how We figetted and blushed And stammered And tried to make Believe we liked it ? And how we tried To be so dignified? And how scared We looked whenever One of those Severe teachers Caught us whispering? That’s all very well But would we Have those youthful Green, unsophisticated Days back again ? PRES. Donaldson victPRES. SOPER I guess not. Then came our Sophomore year. Of course then We realized how Green freshmen Were and rejoiced That we were past That infantile stage. We’d almost Forgotten our Freshman days. We remarked How very queer All Freshmen looked And thanked Our lucky stars That we were So much different From any other Species of Student. Our big opinion Continued yet to grow. Our Sophomore year Was filled with the Regular activities Peculiar to Sophomore years And we spent The time in a Halloween celebration Corn roasts Sleigh rides, etc. But our Class spirit Had not yet Become noticeable However we completed the Year, saying “Next year we are Juniors, watch Out for us! They watched For we had a lot Page six the corrian To accomplish And we did'nt Let grass grow Under our feet While we did it Either, First of all There was the Junior Senior reception And how were we To raise the Necessary cash. Well, we solved that Speedily When we resolved To give a couple Of plays. The results were “The Tents of the Arabs” And “The Little Man” And—Cash. Every one said The plays were good And we marvelled At their good Judgment For appreciation Of our dramatic Genius Was far beyond The average Human Ken. We were very active In Athletics too And won a couple Of Silver Cups Which decorated our Section rooms Very nicely and were The envy of those “Overbearing Seniors.” But we were soon Seniors ourselves And to our astonishment We didn’t feel Much different Than before Though we all noticed That our hats Had somehow grown Smaller and pinched Our noble brows Unmercifully. Of course the most Important event was Graduation with its Rings, Invitations Caps and gowns And the usual trials And Tribulations. Our school career Has been exceedingly Happy and each One of us secretly Hates to leave This dear old Corry High School And our classmates Though some of us May say we are glad. I suppose we are Expected to give Some parting advice To the other classes And all we can Say is “Follow Our example. Don’t Work too hard Get all the fun And above all don’t Cross Miss Kenny She’ll be your Senior Section Teacher.” We thank you With Apologies to all And especially To K. C.

Page thirty t u THE CORRIAN UNIG PALMA NON SINE- LAI50R N TUESDAY, the 7th of September, 1920, the Class of ’24, ex-perienced their first day at Old Corry Hi. The upper classmen gave us a very welcome reception on that first morning, causing much confusion and many blushes. The following week we elected Max Hoenes president; Phina Shean vice president; Hazel Sweet secretary and William Shuss treasurer. With the exception of a hay rack ride, no really important social events took place. We started our Sophomore year with high hopes and proud hearts, although we left several from our ranks with the Freshies of ’21. The office of president was filled by Albert McClean, of vice president by Willis Heath, of secretary and treasurer by Genevieve Stultz. Later in the fall we enjoyed a weiner roast at Klinger’s Grove. As the time for the Hallowe’en parade drew near an intense rivalry was manifested between the Juniors and our class. However, after the parade, we were both satisfied, as each won a prize. We closed our Sophomore year with a picnic at Findley Lake. Returning this year as Juniors we elected the following officers: President Vice President Treasurer Secretary Ralph Ward Henry Duffy Ethel Ewing Ruth Anderson Our activities this year include a weiner and marshmallow roast at Heath’s; participation in the Hallowe’en Parade, in which we felt amply repaid for our efforts, even though we lost the prize; and an Allegheny Glee Club concert held under our auspices on February 7th. In conclusion we think it fitting to say that although we have plenty of class pep, we believe in whole-hearted school spirit, so have supported all athletics and other activities to the best of our ability.

We are the second largest class, being excelled in this respect by only the Freshies. Our history as Freshmen and Sophomores is well known, but for action wait until next year when we return as Juniors! It takes the best to satisfy us so we elected the following class officers this year: Clarence Shoop - President Helen Stockham - Vice President Sarah Wilson - - - Secretary Virginia Doolittle - - - Treasurer Since Miss Stockham left Corry High about Christmas time, Maxine A Iverson was elected to fill the vacancy. Our activities, though few thus far, have accomplished results of which we are justly proud. Besides the hearty support we have accorded all athletic teams, we supplied several players for this year’s champion football team. In spite of sundry interferences from other classes we have enjoyed several social functions and are planning other and better ones for the future. O’Hare “What does fides mean?” Pupil—“Dog.” O’Hare—“Why?” Pupil—“Fido.” Geraldine Chase—“Are you a lover of beauty, Bob?” Bob Lewis—“Sure, ain’t I wild over you?” Page thirty-seven THE CORRIAN Page thirty-eight T H E C O R R 1 A N Maxine Alverson Eva Blakeslee Ida Carey Clara Cullen Marie Dahlstrand Virginia Doolittle Clara Goodrich Marie Hammond Virginia Hoenes Neve Hopkins Mildred Howard Dorothy Humes Mildred Keppel Irene Ketner Elsie Kromas Beatrice Lauer Mary Lewis Helen Lindquist Mable Lindquist Hazel Larson Emily Lindsey Eunice Lynch Margaret Malone Florence Matteson Lavern Grandy Robert McGrath SOPHOMORE CLASS Arthur Palmer Frederick Parkurst Chester Putnam Joseph Nichols Clarence Shoop, Jr. Bud Sloan Reid Spencer Robert Sweet Harold Taylor Melvin Thomas Robert Purcell Susie Matteson Cynthia May Alice Messinger Lucile Miller Clara Minnig Luella Mitchell Florence Monroe Dorothy Monrow Be I os Munsee Ruth McCray Leona McKay Helen Nantes Genevieve Norell Esther Parker Katherine Powers Margaret Rathbun Jean Robertson Helen Rowe Hazel Sample Katherine Shaver Helen Spencer Grace Spinks Genevieve Stultz Hazel Sweet Lewis Baker Dorr Barton Edward Berry John Blakesley John Bogniak Arthur Campbell Merton Briggs Ralph Carroll Harvey Crosscut Thomas DeWit Thomas Flynn Walter Gordon Arthur Mortz Merrill Lillie Harry Lillie Chapin Hatch Gerald Miller ( h I r t ti i n c THE CORRIAN WE, the Freshmen, entered Corry High as the largest class in the history of the school. After a few weeks of leaderless contusion we settled down and elected for our class officers: Warren Ross Raymond Ewing -Betty King Raymond Spiesman President Vice President Secretary Treasurer With the assistance of Mrs. Clark Payne, we built a Hallowe’en float, trimmed with our class colors -red and white representing a basket of roses. The float was pronounced a great success so we felt justly proud of this first result of our united efforts as a class. Since the civics class is made up mostly of Freshmen we think we may claim part of the credit for the play, “When Mr. Rickey Changed His Mind,” presented during the Christmas exercises. At the beginning of the second semester over a score of specially prepared 8th graders entered C. H. S. as sub-Freshmen. They soon became assimilated and now no difference can be noticed between them and any other Freshman. Usually it is a rare occurrence for a Freshman to be a member of a Varsity team. We therefore feel proud of the fact that our president made both the football and track teams. A fair percentage of the class were always on hand to support the athletic games and other school activities. Judging from this birds-eye view of the first lap on our school road we feel we have made a fair start on our four years’ journey.

The Clubs entertained a full house and made a success of the affair in every way. It was by means of this concert that the Juniors raised the main part of their fund for the Junior-Senior Reception. The Seniors engaged the Combined Musical and Glee Clubs of Carnegie Tech to give a concert in the auditorium on March 3d. The organization consisted of forty members. Carnegie’s offering was pronounced the better of the two concerts, but owing to the fact that it was held on Saturday night the financial returns did not quite equal those of the Juniors. These concerts are coming to be regarded by the citizens of Corry as established occurrences yearly and as a method of raising funds are rapidly becoming popular with the different classes. Page forty -five T H C O R R A N C V ce 'Hos'sie rZ% £ J 7'Q 7e J Page � ’( THE COR RIAN i Pane for t • se en THE CORR1AN “The program of studies at the Corry High School is organized into five distinct curricula. These are called Literary, Scientific, Business, Homemaking and Agriculture.” “T N EVERY school there is a group of pupils who are mentally equipped for winning honors in the academic field. As a rule, these people are the ‘bookminded’ class, the real students who will eventually make up the learned class of scholars. They love learning for its own sake and their greatest interest is in mental attainment in the fields of English, history, or possibly the languages. It is for such persons that the Literary curriculum is presented. This year there are about eighty pupils from a total of three hundred and fifty in the school who are pursuing this course;. Since all the pupils who expect to go on through college and prepare for larger work are divided between the Literary and Scientific Courses, 23 per cent of the total enrollment is really a fair representation for the Literary Course. The minimum requirement for graduation is sixteen units composed of four of English, two of language, one of science, one of mathematics the remaining four units to be chosen from any studies listed in the curriculum. Such elasticity permits considerable variation should a pupil become interested in either science or mathematics.” To the young man or woman of a technical turn of mind, the classics do not appeal. This group demands a curriculum which emphasizes the mathematical and scientific studies with little stress on the languages. The Scientific Curriculum aims to present an arrangement of studies of interest to the scientific mind and so correlated as to offer a suitable preparation for college entrance to technical schools. P Ole forty-eight THE CORRIAN Pace forty.nine THE CORRIAN “The study of English and history runs through the entire four years of this course as it does each of the five. During the first year elementary algebra and general science are studied. This serves as an introduction to the fields of mathematics and science and indicates the aptitude of the student and in what direction he should specialize. During the second year the study of plain geometry and biology carries the pupil a little further into both science and mathematics. The third, or junior year, two units are selected from intermediate algebra and solid geometry, physics, Latin and French. This permits either specialization or a broadening of the course to fit individual preferences or college requirements. The last year two units are chosen from chemistry trigonometry, Latin or French.” The Scientific Course is generally considered the most arduous of the courses offered in C. H. S. The interest of the pupils in things scientific is therefore demonstrated by the fact that about 60 pupils or 17 per cent of the total have elected the Scientific Course this year. Thus it seems that C. H. S. is yearly educating quite a number of future engineers, chemists, physicians and science teachers. “The Business Curriculum is offered to young men and women whose greatest inherent talents and natural interests are directed toward the commercial field for expression. Because of the complexity of business life today, it is futile to attempt more than a training in fundamentals. The subjects offered are intended to give a basic training comparable to that offered in the better type of business college. “English, history, and health instruction run through the entire four years as in other courses. In the Freshman year, general science and the elements of business are taught, the latter subject being a cursory survey of the economic, ethical, sociological, and legal bases on which business is founded. The second year a course in mathematics as applied to business and a course in elementary bookkeeping are required of all students. “At the end of this year, a choice must be made between clerical and administrative training. Those who are planning for a brief business Page fifty r a e t fifty-one the corrian training to enable them to earn a living for a few years or in case of necessity—are advised to take the clerical studies. During the last two years emphasis is placed upon stenography and type-writing in order that the graduate may enter an office prepared to do stenographic or minor clerical work efficiently. “Pupils who choose business administration will take a half year’s study of forms of business organization and of elementary accounting in the junior year. During this year also an intensive study is made of the geography of commerce and industry. In the last year, advertising and salesmanship receive attention for one semester each.” The Business Course seems to be the most popular of the five curricula offered in Corry High. One hundred and seventy pupils are enrolled this year. Many take it because they do not care or cannot afford to go to college, so wish to be wage-earners after graduation from high school. These pupils usually take the clerical course. Others who wish to make business their life work elect the administrative course and by so doing fit themselves to assume positions of trust and responsibility. ‘‘This organization of courses attempts to give instruction in the fundamentals of operating and supervising a home efficiently. A full two years’ course of instruction, it recognizes the fact that it is just as important to train certain of the young women of Corry in the occupation that most of them will eventually follow as it is to train the small minority who will go to college or seek a money-making occupation. “Those who elect this work devote half their time to academic subjects English and history and half to vocational subjects for the entire two years. The homemaking studies are organized in the form of a “Vocational Half Day” which means that the pupil devotes an actual half of the school day to the Homemaking and allied subjects. “The young woman who chooses this work receives practical instruction in such subjects as hygiene and sanitation, drawing and design, cookery, elementary sewing, millinery, elementary dressmaking, home accounting, house planning, clothing design, elementary dietetics and home management. Other related subjects, such as general science ar d I’ .i t fifty-tw o I U K l t'-lllTfC THE CORRIAN household physics or chemistry are studied for their application to the problems arising in the course. Pupils transfer to other curricula for the last two years’ work. “To provide proper facilities for the various subjects, a model apart' ment, consisting of a bed room, dining room, and kitchen, is provided in addition to the cooking and sewing laboratories and laundry. The de-partment is completely furnished in a practical modern manner so that the pupils may learn by actually doing the work involved.” This year a special class in millinery was organized for the benefit of girls not enrolled in the regular Homemaking course. Many girls took advantage of this fact, and helped cut down the drain on dad’s pocket-book by learning to make their own hats. The advanced classes in Homemaking put their knowledge to use by preparing and serving hot dishes for the Lunch Club. Once a week they also planned the menu; purchased, prepared and served the food for the Faculty Luncheon. Organized under the Smith-Hughes Act, the work in agriculture is given by the Vocational Half Day plan that is, pupils give half the day to the study of agriculture and related subjects, and one-half to academic subjects. During the four years, the entire field of agriculture as applied to the local situation is covered by such studies as poultry, vegetable gardening, shop work, mechanical drawing, field crops and soils, accounting on the farm, forestry, animal production, dairying, horticulture, farm management, farm engineering, and rural law. The aim in this work is to keep the class room work in actual contact with definite farm problems. To this end, a system of HOME PROJECTS has been instituted whereby each pupil carries on a definite job on the farm. Many of the projects have been poultry raising. The combined profit of all the projects in this line for the past year has reached a total of $572.1 1. During the summer the class of eight assisted in establishing the clock system of numbering farm homes in Erie county. Wayne and Concord townships were mapped and the number plates distributed. Several students are now making plans to grow certified seed potatoes this coming summer. (Quotations are from School pamphlet of 1921 ) THE CORR1AN HARVEST HOME FESTIVAL November 8, 1922, a Harvest Home Festival was held in the High School under the direction of the Homemaking and Agriculture departments. In the afternoon the exhibits of these departments were judged and ribbons were given for first and second prize. There were demonstrations also of stain removal, of table setting, of sewing, of the use of the new commercial patterns, and of shop work. Further demonstrations were given by the students from seven until eight in the evening. These were in milk testing, in poultry culling, in testing the soil for acidity, and in shop problems. At eight o’clock in the auditorium the pupils of the graded schools presented the operetta, “The Soul of Priscilla.” Following that, a farm play, “The Grahams at Home,” was given by the Homemaking and Agriculture students. The High School Orchestra and Glee Clubs assisted in making this first festival a success. F. S.

Page fifty- i x T)HYSICAL Education in the High School is yet in the embryo stage; neverthe-L less, much has been accomplished during the past year by means of daily gym-nastic lessons, posture examinations, and corrective exercises. Twice each day the High School boys and girls have gathered in the study hall and auditorium respectively to take part in lessons given under the watchful eye of Mr. Harold Wolf, Coach Sheen and Miss Stratton. During the fall and spring, when the weather has permitted, all the High School pupils have been given the exercises in one group on the South street pavement. Here, with the pavement for a floor and the sky for a roof, much better work has been done and the greater possibilities of physical education such as might be realized in a real gymnasium strongly brought out. All in all, quite a little has been accomplished when one considers the tremendous handicap under which the work has been carried out. The past year has proven plainly the need of a gymnasium and facilities that will make possible training that will improve the physical as well as mental well-being of the High School students. s. v. WOLF S. VC'. W. THE CORRIAN A T the beginning of the school term the Athletic Association enlisted nearly 100 percent of the student body by its membership drive. The cup award' ed to the class first reaching 100 per cent membership was again won by the class of ’23 after an exciting race with the Juniors. A financial success was also scored on tag Day held the first of the year. Being thus well backed financially, the Athletic Association has been successful in putting strong teams in the field this year. The football team won the Erie County Championship, while the basket ball team had an auspicious season. A girls’ team was also organized the first of the season and gave promise of being a strong coterie. However, owing to the advanced rental of the Armory it was deemed inadvisable to attempt financing two basketball teams. For this reason the girls’ team was disbanded. A strong track team will repre-sent Corry High School later in the year and from all indications this will be one of the principal athletic features of the school. This venture will close one of our most successful ■Treaj. Ward years in athletics, due to the faithful efforts of the Association officers, and to Coach Sheen and his able assistants. The Athletic Association as a body desires to again state the great need of a gymnasium which will be available to the students of Corry High Sec. Johnson School, thereby giving them equal advantages along these lines with other surrounding towns. Pres. Akam Pa e fifty-eight THE CORRIAN H AD you lived anywhere within titty miles of Sundown Ranch, you would have heard of it.” With this well known author starts one of his best stories. sentence, a certain And so it is that I say, “If you lived anywhere within fifty miles of Corry, you would have heard of it.” And that “it” is football. The one big reason for this is that one of the best football teams ever produced at Corry High represented her on the gridiron this year. It was a well coached team, with all the scrap and fight that go to make up a good football combination. To make a good football team requires much time, patience and hard work, both from coaches and men. Much credit for the showing of the team is due the coaches, H. J. Sheen and Community Service Director, Sol Wolf. Under the direction of these two men a smooth-running football machine was finally developed. Night after night, rain or shine, the team practiced hard. Capt. Hammond The result was a good, evenly-balanced team, good both offensively and defensively. On defense, “Murderers’ Row,” made up of Butters at center, Smith and Long at guards, and Gretzler and “Cap” Hammond at tackles, caused many teams to shed tears that were far from being tears of joy. The “Boys on the Firin’ Line” must have been “Fightin’ Irish” even if not direct from the Emerald Isle. With Gordon at fullback plugging thru’ the line, Akam and Ross at halves skirting the ends tor long runs, and Quarterback Group himself occasionally carrying the ball, substantial gains were assured. At ends, Dugan and White had an uncanny knack of grabbing the old pigskin from the air and tearing away for gains that counted. Although it’s the first team that wins the games, it’s the “scrubs” that enable them to do it. Much credit should be given the boys that Page f i f t y ni.n c T H E C O R R I A N T H E COR R I A N take the knocks and get little reward, for it takes a good man to make the man opposite him any good, and the man “opposite” is the varsity man. In all, the team played ten games, lost but one, tied three and won six.

FOOTBALL BANQUET S a reward for the work they did during the season, the football squad, varsity and scrubs were given a banquet by the Rotary Club at the Phoenix Hotel. Dean Rogers, Community Service Man, of New York City, was present and gave a very interesting talk. A big time was enjoyed by all the boys, who showed that football was not the only thing they could do and do well. City Feller—“Well Mr. Brown, I see that your son has taken his B. A. and his M.

S. 28 JL.f Page sixty -two THE CORRIAN rJpHIS year Corry High was represented by the same players as last year. The team did not join any league but played all independent games. The fact that the men were thus stacked against a higher class of opponents, yet won a much larger percentage of games than last season shows the result of one year’s experience in playing together. Because the opposing players were usually larger and heavier than the members of the Corry aggregation, the team soon earned a reputation for a dash and continual fighting spirit that swept aside all odds and won games figured by the dopesters as being sure defeats. The success of the varsity was to a large extent due to the excellent opposition displayed by the second team during practice sessions. Anderson and Bentley as forwards, Haskins center, Long and Heath guards, made up a team that compelled the varsity to go its limit to beat. The seconds also played several games of their own with industrial teams the results being about equally divided as to defeats and victories. Coach Sheen considers the outlook for another winning team next season to be very promising although he will lose by graduation about four men from this year’s squad. ’ a t t ii t three m THE C O R R I A N the “Corrian” goes to press a few enthusiasts begin to talk about track. Coach Sheen expects this year’s team to be the best ever. He plans to have an inter class meet, a triangular meet and two dual meets, if possible. The inter-class meet, coming the first of the season, arouses interest, engenders class spirit and gives the men practice in competition. This year the main contenders for victory in this meet will be the Juniors and Seniors. The triangular meet mentioned will undoubtedly be between Union City, North East and Corry, while possibly dual meets will be arranged between each of these two schools and Corry High.

The roll-call is answered in Latin, stories of Greek and Roman heroes are told, and games of Latin words and mythology conclude the program. What the club lacks in age is augmented in enthusiasm. Twenty-one members are enrolled. Dorothy Williams - Praetor Elizabeth King - - Praetor Secundus Ruth Franz - Aedile M. O. H. The Lunch Club The Lunch Club was organized this year about two weeks after school began. There are about seventy-five members enrolled. The purpose of the club is to serve at least one hot dish every noon for the price of from three to six cents. Boys and girls belonging to the club eit in the rooms of the Homemaking department. Two girls sign up every week to wash dishes, and two boys to sweep the rooms. It is a great benefit to the pupils as it gives them a warm dish for dinner every day. D. P. Le Circle Francaise The French Club started out the first of the year with Geo. Butters at the helm; L. Redinger, vice president; Colegrove secretary, and Smith treasurer. The meetings were held at the home of Miss O’Hare. About the middle of the school year the lack of interest became so noticeable that it was decided to reorganize the club. The constitution was changed to increase the number of members, while some changes were made in the offices, Miss O’Hare being elected vice president and Marjorie Farrell treasurer and secretary. Fine meetings have been held since the reorganization, so the members look for clear sailing the rest of the year. Vane sixty- if ven THE C O R R I A N The Library CORRY High School is justly proud of its library; not, however, because of the extreme age or size or elegance. It has grown from a dictionary and set of encyclopedia in 1920 to four hundred and fifty volumes and a dozen magazine subscriptions. From the beginning the management has been largely in the hands of the students. At present the board of managers is made up of six seniors three boys and three girls—elected or appointed by the class and the same number from the junior class. Donald Ewing is president; Dorothy Monroe, vice president and Johanna Lombard, secretary. The president divides the members into committees of two each week. These committees put the library in order once a day and attend to the loan and return of books. In the year February 1, 1922, to February 1, 1923, 1426 books of fiction were loaned and 2566 books of history, literature and science. The board is constantly working to make the library more useful and helpful to the student body. A lost and found bureau relieves Mr. Brown of numerous cares, little and big, from pins and umbrellas to diamonds and gum. It also adds materially to the library’s finances. The magazines in stock have been placed in boxes and are now available tor the use of all. Each month the board sends a representative to each section room with as many of the following permits as have been earned by the members of that section. LIBRARY PERMIT This certifies that having attained a monthly average of 85 per cent., is permitted the use of all sections of the LIBRARY during school hours for the month. M. L. Brown, Library Committee, Principal. Corry High School, C Signed ? Corry, Pa. f’atr siMty-tight T HE CORRIAN Students not holding permits may not read fiction or magazines during school hours. The percentage of each class earning permits is placed on the bulletin hoard each month. This plan prevents weak students from neglecting lessons tor stories, relieves congestion in the library due to such untimely reading and best of all gives recognition to scholarship. R. T. Extension Course In these days of rapid changes men and women who would keep abreast of their work as well as of the world must be constantly reading and studying. Teachers are no exception to this rule. That the teachers of Corry are thoroughly alive to their need is shown by the fact that for two years, at least half of them have been taking advantage of the University Extension courses provided by Pennsylvania State College and Edinboro Normal. This winter the teachers studied current history. Miss Young of the Erie Branch of the Edinboro Normal came down once a week to take charge of the work. The class met directly after school for one hour and forty minutes for sixteen weeks. Normal School or College credit was given for the course. Miss Young is a well informed, thoroughly live teacher, and the course proved very interesting as well as profitable. R. T. Fut • t n i n ( C O R R I A N THE Teachers’ Institute T7ARLY in the fall, the Corry teachers voted to have their own In-stitute and set aside the money coming to them for Institute attendance as a fund for the securing of speakers. An Institute Council, consisting of representatives elected from each teaching group, the various Principals, and the president of the Teachers’ Association ex-officio, was chosen to make all arrangements for the various meetings. Among the speakers have been Dr. Fretwell of Columbia University, Prof. Hunt of the University of Pittsburgh, Dr. Thompson of Brockport Normal, Prof. Pillsbury, Asst. Supt. Buffalo Schools, Prof. Moore, Assistant Superintendent of Erie, Mrs. Sies, of the Erie Branch of the Edinboro Normal and Prof. Kirby and Miss Konold, art and music specialists from the State Department. A highly profitable feature of the Institute has been the teacher participation in Round Table discussions and the working out together of various group projects for the betterment of the Corry schools, one of which was a definite drive for spoken English in all grades. In other words, the teachers have experienced a definite reaction to the ideas put forth by the various speakers, with a resulting attempt to apply them to existing local conditions. This has been of great benefit to the Corry schools. M. E. K. Mike- “And how did you get your foot burned?” Pat “Sure and I was sick and had one foot in the grave.

Seventy of them started-—18 in Shorthand, 14 in Typewriting, 14 in Millinery, 9 in Bookkeeping, and 15 in Basketry. There probably were not more than 55 at the finish, but those who stuck it out surely were well repaid for their time and effort. The Bookkeeping students completed all the first Budget; the Short-hand students completed all the Principles and Word-signs; the Typewriting students used all their fingers, memorized the keyboard, and arranged business letters; the Basketry students made two flower and one fruit basket; the Millinery students made frames, and both satin and straw hats. The school was voted the most successful ever held in the building, and there were many requests for a continuation of the course at some future time. W. V. D. Miss Kenny asked for advertising slogans one day in History Class. The following assortment at once assailed her ears: The fact is “there’s a reason” why “one of the fifty-seven varieties” is “good to the last drop.” “Eventually, why not now” “keep that schoolgirl complexion” and “a skin you love to touch,” “clean and sanitary,” “untouched by human hands,” “ready for instant use” “after every meal.” “Just whistle” “for the gums,” “recommended by a generation of users,” “recommended by health boards everywhere” and “made in a cup at the table.” “His master’s voice” “hasn’t scratched yet” “the world’s most famous talking machine,” because “it floats.” “Sweeten it with Domino,” “refuse substitutes,” “try it for thirty days.” “Judge for yourself whether” to “say it with flowers” is getting “the best for less” when “your druggist carries it.” Page 11 venty one Glee Club I his club organized early in the year and was soon hard at work. Rehearsals were held twice a week at first after school, but were later changed to the first period. Under the supervision of Miss Waller the club advanced so rapidly that within a short time it was entertaining the student body during chapel exercises.
