Seniors, remember the eleventh of September, in the year nineteen hundred sixteen. XVhen as Freshmen we assembled Zllltl closely resembled those who are bash- ful and green. The Seniors gave sneers LEON.-XRD RAIDER . lease Bail 41, IU and our eyes filled with tears, the Juniors all whistled illusion. The Sophomores came last and forgetting their past, laughed loud Basket Ball CHI, IVJ Class Play CIII, IVJ Track Sorrows of Solomon i:Q222'.l12Q l Mamger Oracle at our mingled confusion. But in a short V'Ce'P1'es 'e'1t Afhelem ASSOC' UV? time we all fell in line and gave no ear to XVhat is so rare as a day Cwithl ,Tuneg Thea, if ever, Came pa,-rect ,iaysyr suggestions, and when the tests came we all took the same, and did pretty well on the questions. So thus we proceeded and vastly succeeded in gaining some good ieputation, and this I can tell, we liked school quite well, when it came to the summer vacation. The next year we came back with as much knowledge and knack as be- came a great class of our standing. XVe didn't act queer as we did the last year, by standing abashed on the landing. XYe all came upstairs without any cares for the noise that our big feet were making: and each stamped his feet and pounded his seat when the Freshmen came in all ashaking. All win- ter long to signal and song we came to receive education. But when school was out we scattered about to grow more food for the nation. The very next year we came back with a cheer and found a new outlay of teachers. But we did our best and soon were at rest, for they were pretty good creatures. Then we started a race to get in First place in order to win fame and glory. It took quite a while but we did it in style, as is shown by the following story. The nrst of the fames was the basket ball games where the Seniors were soundly defeated. And when a great Junior athlete starred in the class meet, the Seniors were far less conceited. XVe hung up our banner in a challenging manner: their madness and fury were double. In a grand tug of war we beat them by far and gained first place for our trouble. Our junior class play then came in May and we won success by this deed. It surely was funny and furnished the money that went for the great Junior feed. Last fall we came to add to our fame we had won by our unceasing labor. SIXTEEN - rs And we said, U'lillC1'C'S no fear of anyone here, not even Z1 junior l11VZlClCl'.H But right :Lt the start the Freshmen got sinzirt and ordered some caps with their numbers. But when the cups came we threatened the szune, so they sidetracked the dreams of their slumlmers. Thus we rule here till spring and we'll loose not a thing, welll guard off all strikes and Home Rulefl And as hold as 21 steer we'll finish this year as leaders of Delphi High School. 'When we started our drive we had eighty-tive, but some have fallen down hy the way. So we'll not have as mzniygthough there'll still he El plenty, at the Commencement program in May. Our high school career will surely end here, we have won fume and glory riplenty. So letls give three cheers for the bright future years, of the class of Ninteen :ind Twenty. M.

Back to the planet of gravitation and boiled cabbage. How sick and tired I am of Mars and all its mystical monstrosities. I was told that I would enjoy the novelty of a Martian existence, and-well. perhaps some do enjoy it, but my circulation never seemed to readjust itself. Consequently I suffered much inconvenience during the three years I spent there. You who have made this interplanetary journey and have experienced the entire absence of gravitation and other numerous earthly essentials, can realize why I gave up a million dollar position in Mars and made tracks for the little old U.S.A. It is now about 7 l'. M. Standard Solar Time, and our high speed Ether- plane has covered several million kilometers since noon. Mars is fast re- ceding in the distance and already the earth is assuming its continental outlines. These interplanetary journeys have ceased to interest my scientific nature, so I will retire to dream of little old Delphi from which I have been separated for so long. Must not forget to adjust the counter-weights on my revolving berth or I will receive a bad fall when we reach the zone of regravi- tation. August 15. This has been a wonderful day indeed. It makes me feel like a boy again to learn of my old classmates after all these years and-but I am getting ahead of my story. Time hung heavily on my hands this morning, so I amused myself by ex- ploring the depths of an old trunk. which I have been carrying around for years. Imagine my surprise and joy when I came across a copy of the 1920 Q RACLIC. Q boy! During the next few hours I lived over again those good old school days. VX'hile at dinner an idea struck me, the possibilities of which made me wonder why I had never thought of it before. It occurred to me that I would consult the spirit world and find out about my old class- mates. So I hunted up a reliable Medium, who soon connected me with Sol- troso, my patron spirit. After learning of my request he was silent for a few minutes, and then, thru the lips of the Medium, he told me the following: W'illard Cartwright is at present constructing a large shipyard in the central part of the Sahara desert. XVe always thought he had a dry sense of humor. Mary Anderson has returned to Delphi and is making a specialty of sell- ing diamond rings. She says it is a very engaging business. Charles IVood has at last lowered his colors and surrendered to the fair sex, the intended being Miss Teerious of Swampdunkk, Arkansas. Maude Schenck, who for the last ten years has been endeavoring to solve the problem of f'How to be happy tho married, has linally given up the arduous undertaking, and is at present taking a rest cure in a prominent Logansport institution. The debate in Congress over the League of Nations has Hnally come to a close.Congressman Raider, of Indiana, was instrumental in bringing this about. During a heated argument between two other Congressmen, he arose and requested that someone explain what the League of Nations was TXVENTY EIGHT supposed to be. No one knew so the entire affair was cubbyholed, and thus a great national question came to a happy solution after more than a decade of strenuous existence. Glae Clawson, the noted actor, has gained national renown. He is play- ing the 'LHeavy in Shakespoke's latest success, A Mid XYinter Night's Scream. Glae's advice to young men is, 'lStay away from the stage, boys --cold storage eggs are growing worse every year. Mrs. Ammerman, formerly Miss Helen Arnott, is at.present engaged in missionary work in northern China. She has made a record of 14,000 converts in one year. Her method is very simple-at the point of the bayonet hel husband forces the natives to either eat the biscuits that she bakes or become Christians. Naturally, the heathens consider a live Christian to be far better than a dead inlidel, so her ranks are ever increasing. Rev. Austin of Chicago, delivered an address before the Ladies' Aid Society last Thursday. He took as his subject, The Unscrupulous Dealings in our island possessionsfi The following statement which he made has caused considerable discussion among the members of the society: The political grafters no sooner land on an uninhabited South Sea island than they have their hands in the pockets of the naked savages. Paul Calvert is traveling for a refrigerator company in northern Green- land. Mr. and Mrs. L. Raider, the latter who was formerly Miss june Casley, are visiting friends in Honolulu. Mrs. Raider is said to posses the largest in- dividual collection of hundred dollar gold pieces in the world. She explains by saying that her husband gives her one every time he kisses her. She is also known to possess a large collection of two hundred dollar gold pieces. lfvidently there are other men more generous than Mr. Raider. Prof. C. XV. Baum, the noted scientist, has at last perfected a process whereby water may be hung on a line to dry. It will be remembered that he was also the inventor of a process whereby the energy developed by girls chewing gum is utilized. Successful experiments were conducted in the Delphi High School, which resulted in the establishment of a large power plant to supply electricity for the county. f'Kelso-Baumide is by far his greatest discovery. Bitler Armstrong has made a fortune selling melted ice. At present he resides in l'hiladelphia, but expects to leave soon. He says that he never remains long in one place as it is not safe to become too well known by the police authorities. Miss lfsther Baum has returned from Central America where she has been selling overcoats and fur goods. Miss Rosa Beard and Mr. lleeza Liar were united in marriage at the home of the bride last Sunday. lt was originally intended that the bridels father should give her away, but her little brother beat him to it. The firm of Coomey K Ginn went into bankruptcy last week. Mr. Ginn claims that lfiddie smoked up all the profits. Earl will retire shortly as his new book How To Bluff lt Thru Latin has brought him a small fortune. Miss Eva Chapman, who married Mr. Citt T. Guy of Chicago, is suing for divorce on the grounds that her husband objects to her eating onions. Josephine Clawson will go to Mars next week in order to secure some new ideas for her millinery establishment. The Society of Persecuted Hus- bands has filed a protest but she remains firm. Lawrence Margowski has achieved the distinction of being the first man '1'vvEN'1'Y NINE Z to ascend to l'ike's l'eak on a Kiddie Karr. Now that he has got this dis- tinction he wants to know what he is going to do with it. Margaret Darragh will leave for Massachusetts next week to accept a position as l'rof. of Bugology in Harvard University. She has been studying the contents of breakfast foods for the last several years and so feels well qualified to hll this important position. The Metropolitan Opera of New York is featuring Madame Helena Dia- lette this season. Her role is that of an Egyptian toe dancer. Madame Dialette, it will be remembered, is the author of the .famous book, 'lEat and Grow Thinf, Dwight Lesh, who lost his reason over a love affair several years ago, and who has been at large for the last six months, has been found and re- moved to a local institution. He has been investigating every sailing vessel on the Atlantic coast trying to find eggs in the f'Crow's Nestf, Mary Dissinger has been arrested in New York for flirting. The object of her advances was said to be a Chinese coolie lately arrived from Honkong. She is charged with hunting out of season as this is not Leap Year. Gladys Draper, who has been teaching school in Burroughs for the last several years, has accepted a position as stenographer in the Upp K Attem Prune Co. of Colburn. VX7ilbur Hall, atheletic instructor of XVabash college, is training to meet Ohowa Sluggem, the world's champion prize fighter. The match will take place next week. XYilbur will leave a wife and ten children. Fern Ferling has opened a beauty parlor on Broadway, New York. Her complexions are guaranteed not to run, fade, or rub off. Mabel Sites has writ- ten a testimonial to the effect that out of three hundred and fifty gentlemenls coats, on which she conducted her experiments, there was not a single in- tance in which they failed to weather the storm. XYilliam McCormick, superintendent of the Douisville Sunday School Association. has launched a campaign against the Tiddlewinks and Lotto evil. Last year he was a leading figure in the campaign for the prohibition of kiss- ing and Sen Sen. Aetna Gee has opened a correspondence school of stenography in XVil- mington, l'enn. She teaches the Hunt 8 Peck system of typewriting. Sam Perlman is traveling in Patagonia for the Pull N Grunt corset manu- facturing company, of Boston. In a letter to his wife, he says that the ves- sel on which he sailed got lost because they could not find which way their course set. However, since he got his new position he is always stringing someone. so we don't believe him. XVe donit think he will stay either, as he is liable to get hooked up by the natives. 'I Mrs. Gab,b N. Cessantly, formerly Miss Florence Pratt, got into-ian ar- gument with her husband last week and broke her jaw. Mr. Ceshsantlyg looks ten years younger since the accident. ' Basil Myers, a ticket puncher for the liarth, Mars CQ Jupiter Etherplane Co., has been arrested for punching a gentleman's nose. Said gentleman, so he states, asked if he could cash a check at a cloudbank so he hit him while he was still happy. Prof. M. Michael, a chemist in the Smithsonian Research Labratories, has exploded a bombshell in chemical circles by proving limberger cheese to be an element. He is still in a serious condition as a result of being gassed while conducting his experiments. Marie Griffith, the great naturalist, has announced her discovery of the Purple Sicilian Frog Nest. Among her other recent discoveries are The THIRTY Peruvian Bowlegged Snake, The Mexican jumping Bean, The Patagonian Hairless Jingerbernooster, and The Siamese Cross-eyed XYoozy.

George Roskuski, a prominent Carroll County farmer, was kicked south of his corn crib by a balky mule. The mule will not recover. Mr. and Mrs. XY. B. Smith and family will travel thru the XYest during the winter. Mr. Smith is in search of material for his new book, 6'The Lay of the Ancient Hen. Mrs. Smith, formerly Miss Katie lloaglan, says that there is no need of running all over the XVest in search of this material as there is an overabundance of it on the market at the present time. However, she says that she will try anything once. That probably explains their mar- 1'1age. Lazarre Thompson, who lost his reason when his sweetheart jilted him, is living near the vicinity of Mt. Vesuvius. His poor, befuddled brain has conceived a curious hallucination, for every time Vesuvius erupts, he travels over the molten lava in a boat and marks it off into squares. XYheu last in- terviewed, he declared his intentions of shipping these lava blocks to the U. S. to be used in paving aerial highways. Carolyn Kirkpatrick, who is a lover of hills and Dales, has constructed a large factory near an immense cat tail swamp in southern Ohio.

On Dec. 32, 1932, my husband drove a herd of cows thru our ice-covered barnyard and there I saw a cowslip. On the next day, our herd of Billy Goats broke into a barrel of sugar, and later we found a bunch of Sweet XVilliams. Margaret Overholser has insured the future happiness of married couples by her invention of a Cat Extractor. Hereafter, wifey, instead of angering friend husband by making him get up to put the cat out, will merely press a button and Sir Thomas De Catt will be extracted electrically. ' Mrs. Sufifren Katt, formerly Miss Bernadine Pratt, is the woman candi- date for president on the Bull Rat ticket. It is generally conceded that her hopes are due to have a fall as there is a plank loose in her platform. Miss Hildred Roskuski has returned from Europe where she has been conducting various scientific investigations. She has reported to the New York Scientific XVorld that the vessel on which she sailed made twenty-five knots an hour, but although she looked over the side during the entire voyage, she was unable to see a single knot. Mrs. Treet M. Ruff, formerly Miss Ycrna Trawin, reports that her hus- band is working for a steamboat company on the lower Mississippi. His duty, so she states, It to bank the ure on the boat at night. She goes THIIVI' Y ONE en to say that, I know that coal is very expensive, but I hardly thought it was necessary to put the tires in the bank over night. Yiolet Tyler. who is practicing law in Amerieus, says that business is not very rushing. She states further that the only new suit she has had for the last three years was a law suit. Mrs. Um-eda ll.

After weighing the matter thoroughly, he opened the tube and found the above. lle has requested that the Senior Class pay for the skylight. THIHTY TNYO SENIOR CLASS WILL Qfl UU Dearly Beloved-we are gathered together here to perform a sad and solemn duty. The Spectre has stretched forth its gaunt hand and snatched the fairest Flower from our midst. But the dear one who has passed on has left behind a glorious recordsone that will never be forgottenfa shining example for those who come after. Many tried and true friends mourn the departure of the class of l92O whose last will and testament will now be read. lVe, the Seniors of Delphi High School, Class of l92O, knowing that the end is drawing near, do desire to bestow and bequeath our worldly posses- sions and advice among those who survive us. NYe futher desire that this will be executed on the twenty-eighth day of May, nineteen hundred and twenty. To our beloved Mr. Cripe we leave our knowledge of Chemistry. JVC have no further use for it and feel that you may need it next year. To our dear friends, the Juniors, we leave the record of our grades. May they inspire you to greater efforts so that you too can reach the goal which we have won. To the people of Delphi we leave the sweet memory of plays, programs and minstrels with which we have entertained them in the past and the equal of which they will never see again. To Beatrice Rees we leave the make-up box of Mabel Sites-lip stick, rouge, eyebrow pencil-feverything complete, just as dear girl left it. 'l'o Raymond CJackJ Johnson we grant Bill McCormic'kls famous whistle. Raymond has such a musical nature. and with the whistle and his music box he should be able to create quite a sensation. To Thelma Gustavel we have awarded June Casley's farsfamed 'fjiggingf' We feel sure that Thelma will carry on the good work which June has so nobly started. To Meredith Carney we leave Lorene llinkle's position in the office. Meredith's promptness and energy have won this coveted position for her. To George Loveland we leave XVillard Cartwright's gift of gab and his ability with the girls. tio to it George-we're for you! To Glen Jester we bequeath the slender, willowy gracefulness of iVil- bur llall. To llarold Julien, Class of '19, we leave our most sincere sympathy. The loss of his dear one must be almost greater than he can bear. To dear little Reynolds llickman we bequeath the amazing popularity of Leonard Raider. XYe feel that the many disappointments of his Freshman year have entitled him to this consideration. To 'lJl16l1llIl Fiant and Robert Roach we leave a wireless telephone which will save them much valuable time as there will be no further necessity for writing ten-page notes during school time. To Xvllllillll Hoshaw we leave Lawrence tFatj Margowski's size-yes Vxlillie, his height as well as width. To lfva Boone we bequeath Carolyn Kirkpatrick's 'fvampinessf' VVe feel sure that Eva will prove an apt pupil and will profit by her legacy. To Meredith Redding we leave Marie Cil'il:l:ltll,S kid eurlers and rats Doubtless there will soon be a great change in Meredith's appearance. To Leland Burkholder we leave Earl Ginn's erect, military bearing. An- other change! THIRTY THREE 7-HW W 1 To Sarah Dyke we leave Loreen XYingerd's artistic ability. XYith this assistance Sarah has beyond all doubt a great future before her. To Helen Lathrope we leave the sweet, old-fashioned manners and gentle voice of Margaret Darragh. Oh! what a change in Helen! To James Obear we leave Lazarre Thompson's pipe, tobacco and cigar- ettes. Lizzie claims they make one grow. ' To Ernest Hobaugh we leave Charles XVood's style and elegant man- ners. XVill anyone recognize Earnest? To Vivian Kelso we grant all claims to the love and affection of Charles Baum. 'fAnd after many years-. To Ruth Lane, the giggling girl, we leave the additional giggles of Mary Disinger and Ferne Ferling. The combination promises to be inter- esting at least. To Vasa Holsinger we leave Sam Perlman's gift for oratory and debate. Also Samls gum chewing act. To Helen Malia and Tom Thomas we take great pleasure in bequeathing the loving happiness of lYilliam Smith and Katie Hoaglan. QXVhat chemical action will change a white sapphire into a diamond?j To Mr. Scales we leave the ability of the Senior Class to slide out of all possible work and put the burden on someone else. XVe feel that Mr. Scales really needs a rest. To Miss Ragan we leave glasses, the lens of which magnify so highly that nothing can possibly escape her in the assembly room. To Miss McCain we leave a secret. Instead of sitting up all night grad- ing stupid math', papers, just throw them in the waste basket and no one will ever be the wiser. Q , To Mayola Hostetter we leave Doc julian, said jurisdiction to include all rights and claims to pins and rings. To Miss Boyd we take away instead of bestowing, for the bane of her life, the Senior Class, will no longer annoy her. Never again will she have to spend sleepless nights worrying over the antics of Cartwright, Thompson and others. Signed-SENIGR CLASS OF 1920.

I JU IOR 1921 In the year of nineteen hundred and seventeen the class of '21 received the clapping of the upper classmen as they entered the assembly room of D. H. S. for the first time. Because of several interruptions and the lack of a leader the class was not organized until late in the school year. A meeting having been called by the principal, the following officers were elected: Ralph Hanna ..... ........ l 'resident Thelma Gustavel -U .... Vice-l'resident Joseph Ives ....... ....... ' l'reasurer Joyce XVilbur .........A...... Secretary IVE: safely survived the ordeal of being' Freshmen and with a brief rest of three months rejoiced to find ourselves Sophomores.

Secretary It is rarely necessary for an individual or organization to call attention to its own accomplishments. They are usually self-evident. It is so with the class of '2l. XVe have made ourselves felt in the school with our honor students, basketball and track men. This year we furnished ofiicers for the Athletic Association and also a yell leader. During the year we lost two classmates by death, Gertrude Clawson Zllltl Leonard Hoshaw, whose absence is sincerely regretted. The junior Play on March 26th and the junior re- ception on May Zlst were a great success. Uur oliicers for this year were: Thelma Gustavel ............. President Joyce VVilbur --- .... Vice-President John Hamling -- ...... Treasurer Ralph Hanna I ............... Secretary It will not be long before we are all again united, working for a common end and bound with mutual tiesg and in our reunion there can be but one purpose and one desire, to make the class of 'Zl worthy to fill the place of the class of '2O.

President listher Shirk ........ ---Secretary lohn IVOod ..... ---Vice-President Hubert Gross .......... Treasurer It was a cold, snowy, winter day and every one of the family had gone sleighing but myself. I was left at home because of a sore throat-Mworse luck. lVhile roaming over the house looking for something with which to pass away the slowly dragging minutes I went into the library. There be- fore an open fire was a chair which looked as if it contained no end of com- fort and beside it was placed a basket of bright red apples, something to tempt a lonesome soul, if anything would. I walked over to a little desk which contained a few old love letters, my first attempt at literature, and a few little keep-sakes that no one would care for but myself. lfVhile looking through them I came upon a book which looked strangely familiar and yet it was so old and stained I could scarcely read it. However, when I bent back the cover the face of my old high school principal looked into mine and then I knew it was our high school Oracle over which the class of 1920 had spent so many sleepless nights. I settled myself in the depths of the chair, gave the Fire a hasty stir, for it was growing colder outside and I could see and hear the snow beat against the window pane, selected a big juicy apple and was soon lost in the memor- ies of my D .H. S. life, As I looked at the pictures of my old teachers and classmates I had a little creepy feeling that I should enjoy being with them back in the old as- sembly room once more. There was Miss Boyd, my Sophomore English teacher, who always said that our class was the trial of her school life. I well remember when, one day after our daily lecture on chair marking, Mr. Scales was called into the room, and with him came a bucket of water, a can of old Dutch, a bottle of ammonia and a supply of old rags. Each and every one of us had to lower his dignity and swallow his pride, while we scrubbed our most artistic drawings, on which some of us had spent so many tedious periods. Looking further I came upon our Freshmen class picture. Our president, Gordon julien, looked very prominent, whether because of size or office I know not which. There were seventy-seven of us the lirst year, and I'll ad- mit now that we were one of the greenest bunches of Freshies that ever pass- ed from the assembly room, amid the clapping and stamping of our upper classmen. XVhether it was because of our influence or not the Latin Clubs were or- ganized under the direction of Miss Campbell, and I know that if a Roman could have been present at our meetings he would have been proud. Let me see-ah! yes!- Dug Swatts represented us in Athletics and won for us third place. lYe were elevated just a trifle in the eyes of the school. I settled myself deeper in the chair, carefully selected my third apple and turned to the Sophomore history. Our president that year was Martha Landis and she showed her worth by the mock Chautauqua which our class presented. She also took part in the Minstrel with Mary Sites, and they were a credit to any class. That year we had only sixty-seven in our class but we had quality even if we lacked quantity. The shadows were deepening and I could scarcely see the print upon the faded paper. I looked up and saw that the fire had died down to ashes. The door opened and the children burst into the room, rosy with the cold and snow. As I laid aside the old Oracle I felt a little pang of regret to think that 1ny high school days were over, never to return. MAYOLA HOSTIETTIZR.

A very attractive course was offered to us and the majority of us suc- ceeded in making good grades. lt remained for two Freshmen to lead the high school in grades at the end of the first semester. About four weeks after school opened, a class meeting was held, and the following officers were elected: Lloyd Blickenstaff ........ President Fva Boone s.....,s.M..... Secretary Raymond Atkinson---Vice-President Alma Mayhill ---- ...... 'l'reasurer Mrs. C. Downey.----Class Sponsor At this meeting the class voted to take over a part of the Oracle, hence this history. Light blue and old gold-were adopted as the class colors. Dues were fixed at ten cents per month in order to defray the expense of our share of the Annual. Time has actually flown this year. XVe had barely settled down to our worl-1 when nine weeks had passed and it was time for the hrst examination of the year. just about that time we were studying Longfellow's Tales of a XVayside Inn in our English classes, and Miss Ragan suggested that we dramatize the 'Saga of King Ulaff, XVe did so and cleared Fifteen dollars, with which we bought a copy of Ruysdaells painting The Mill for our English class-room. Thanksgiving vacation came and then it was only four weeks until the holidays. This year the high school authorities were mindful of the fact IVE had entered it and gave us all twelve days vacation. lVe went back after New Yearls Day and lol, it was only three short weeks before the semester examinations. During this three weeks the Latin Club presented a play, in which two Freshmen participated. Then came the fateful days, January twenty-third and twenty-fourth. The examination questions kept back a few, the rest went over the top with streaming colors. XVe enrolled for the second semester on the following Monday. On April second we presented a program that was a credit to our class. The final examinations came about M ay twenty-hfth, and then, on May twen- ty-eighth, we received cards telling us that we were no longer Freshmen but 'tDignihed Sophomoresf' Methinks I can see our class returning to grand old D. H. S. next fall as Sophomoresg I see them again the following fall as .lolly Iuniorsg and in the fall of 1922 I see them entering the portals of this dear old school for the last time, as Seniors. After that comes the Commencement. 'Twill be both a glad and sad day for our classg glad in the sense that our life will really be beginningg but sad because we cross the threshold of high school for the last time. I think we all will wish that we could live o'er again the four years that we will have spent at this institution of learning, because they will have been so happy. It is my fervent desire that sometime in the days to come we may have a class reunion and there talk over the happy years we will have spent in Delphi I-Iigh School and out of it. You may ask, 'lXVhat's the matter with the class of '23 P And if you are one of the doubters, the answer should end your disbelief, for any person who thinks will say, Nothing at all. It is the best class in the whole of Delphi lligh School. Now all together-RAH! RAH! RAH! for the class of 23! JAMES HORACE GBIC.-XR.

Among the basket ball fans who had had previous experience, we found Raider, Baum, and Thomas. XYith these men as a starter the team was whipped into shape. Among the men who stepped in the limelight this year in the hoop and net game, we find llamling, Ginn, Margnwski, Cartwright, and Bradshaw. These men had , . had some experience but had not served as COACH TOM'-'NWN first string men. After about three weeks work the team began to round into shape. Much time was spent in passing, and basket shooting. Basket shooting seemed to be the weak spot and remained such throughout the season. The first game of the season was played with Buck Creek on Oct. 3. The team had not as yet been chosen and all the basket ball fans were won- dering what the line-up would be. Shortly after the game started, Coomey, our ever ready score-keeper, announced that Baum and Cartwright would hold down the offensive, hlargowski as center, while Thomas and Raider were to take their old places as guards, This left Hamling, Swatts, and Bradshaw on the bench. This game was a decided victory for the D. H. S. tive. Tn this game Carty got off on his right foot and marked up ten field baskets for his team. Baum, the fellow who says, 6'Stop me if you can, dribbled through his husky guard for four baskets. Margowski, Raider, and Thomas all played excellent ball, and formed a Stonewall defence. The next game of the season was played at Brook. Brook had a big hunch of husky farmers ,and l guess the Delphi lads got cold feet, for their Ieet did not do them much good during the game. This game closed with a 50-33 score, with Delphi on the losing end. This was the game where liarl Ginn. a smiling Senior, stepped in as center and played a wonderful game. Baum, Raider, and Thomas played good ball, but were not able to connect until it was too late. In the third game of the season our long. lean boy by the name of Hammie , was seen in the pivot position. This was with the Cutler team. Uhlfhow they could hit that basket. lt kept Tom and Raider busy most of the evening watching Butcher. their forward of sectional fame. In this game, our captain, Raider, the boy with a smile, ran wild for a few minutes and counted up eight baskets for his team-mates. As a result, Delphi defeated the Cutler delegation to the tune of 36 to 29. The next game is one which we hate to relates-it took place at Rossville. For sometime Rossville has been carrying a horseshoe, and they certainly had it with them on Oct. 24. 1919. As a result our quintet was defeated. Fo1t'1'Y MNH Thomas says it was because he left his girl at home. That may be true. On Nov. 14th, the boys from Bringhurst motored up to try their luck with the Delphi live. This was one of the most exciting games of the season. It was a whirlwind from start to finish. The first half ended with a score of 15 to 6, with Delphi on the losing end. XVe don't know what Tomlinson told his men but he certainly said a plenty, for they came back with speed to burn. The second period with a Z7 to 27 score. After live minutes over time, as luck would have it, Bringhurst got a basket, winning the game. The-next two games were played away from home with Attica and Veedersburg. Attica is that place where you have to watch the ceiling and four posts and at the same time hit the basket. This was the place where our little forward, Chilly, came in direct contact with Tom's head. As a re- sult, one of Attica's physicians had the opportunity of taking four stitches in Chilly's head. From Attica the Delphi delegation continued their journey to Veeders- burg. This is the place where they grow 'em big. In this game XVilbur was used almost throughout. He proved a very good substitute for Baum. The first half closed with a 11 to 6 score. The Hnal period closed with the score standing at 22 to 13, in their favor. The game was played on a dance floor so no one except Thomas and Hamling felt at home. The Alumni game was the next game of interest. The team was com- posed of llfilson, Julien, Cowdin, Kirkpatrick and Trawin. This made a very flashy outfit and they were out to win. Cartwright was sick that day and could not hold the ball--therefore dropping it through the basket eleven times. About the end of the first period, the older boys felt sure something must be done, so they introduced Quick and Gardner. Gardner strengthen- cd their offensive machine but they were not able to stop the locoed five. The game ended with a score of 38 to 16. lVe are not going to tell you about the second Alumni game. Ask one of them-he will tell you. Along about Nov. 26th, a dark cloud hit the Delphi camp when Ginn, Hamling and Thomas were all sick with the Flu. Not saying anything about the crippled condition of our team, we took a carload of rooters and journeyed to Logansport. Everyone reported a good time but we brought home the little end of a 49 to 14 score. -- The one game of the season which we all looked forward to was the Flora game played on Ian. Qth. The first twelve minutes of play were very sensational, but after that the score began to go the wrong way and we were not able to stop it. In this game Raider and Baum played wonderful ball, but the team did not work together for a scoring machine. VVe're hoping to do better next year. The dope bucket was certainly,kicked over for most local fans on Ian. 16th, when the local five defeated the speedy Rossville tive by a score of 33 to 27. In this game, our smallest player, Fat, got started and couldn't stop. He marked up twenty of the 33 points to our credit. It was during this game that Ginn was placed as back guard and played excellent ball dur- ing the absence of Thomas. Many fans stated that this game was the best they had seen in Delphi for a ,number of years. Before leaving our basket ball file, we might say something in regard to each of them. h Raider, our captain, is the boy who always has a smile. You can count on him being on both the offensive and defensive. He is always in the thick- est of the light. Delphi will miss him next year. Then, there is our speedy little forward, Baum. He's small but he made it up in speed. Chilly always had a habit of taking the ball away from his opponent and dribbling down the floor for a basket. Although a little weak on shooting, he was a wonder on the offensive. He will not be with us next year-who will fill his place? FIFTY And there is our center and forward, Fat He was a little slow on the start but death on short shots. If you don't believe us, ask Rossville. He is also a Senior. He may be playing on some college Freshman team next year. Then we have with us Ginn. He was the fellow whom you could count on for either center, guard or forward. During the continued absence of Thomas he held down the position at back guard. Some college will get a good man next year if he doesn't decide to settle down on the farm. Now for our juniors. Hamling was good material and held down the pivot position remarkably well. Hammie as center next year, will be a good start. Thomas- Tom for short, is a wonder at back guard. He went after them with that Udo or die spirit, which cost him many personalsg but he was a stonewall defence. lVith Tom at back guard, we are looking forward to a good team next year. Cartwrightw Carty , was a speedy mate for Chilly. He was there with the reverse turn and quick passing. He is a Senior and also a Delta Tau Delta pledge. XVatch him in DePauw next year. Last but not least is Bradshaw. Bradie,' was a man you could depend cn to take either back or floor guard. He played remarkably well in the Sheridan and West Lafayette games. He is only a lunior and will be with us next year. So we're sure to see him in basket ball togs next year. lVe must not forget the second string boys who worked hard and played well when called upon. Among them we Find Hanna, Swatts, Sheets, Hol- singer and Parker. The second team must be given much credit for the suc- ces of the first. For the sub I would like to say- You know what it means when you substitute You've sat on the side with me. You know how it sounds when the great crowds root For heroes you'd like to be. You've given a cheer when your heart was sick And rated yourself a dub, But here is a slogan to which you stick- The captain was once a sub ! Yes, life is a game where there's much to learn lVhere only the clever win. But really, its folly to sit and yearn, They're practicing now-pitch in! They treated you rotten-they sometimes do, But don't be a groaning grub, For here is a slogan life meant for you- The captain was once a sub!

The outlook for the meet was not the best because of weather conditions After postponing it a number of times the teams got together April 14. For Delphi, Ginn, Hamling, and Cartwright were looking good for the dashes and hurdles. Captain Cinn had also been making the 880 in first class time. As to the mile, Tom Murphy, a noble junior, came to our assistance. Murphy had had no previous experience as a trackster, but he proved to be there when it came to speed and endurance. In the 100 yard dash Crowe, of jefferson, beat llamling out by a very small margin, Bradshaw, of Delphi finished third. ln the 220 yard dash Hamling got off on the right foot and finished first. The most sensational race of the meet was the 880 yard run. In this event Ginn showed up well as an 880 man. 1-le led the Fieldithe entire race, and would have finished first had he started his final sprint sooner. The jefferson man won by a few inches. Murphy hnished second in a hard fought race for the mile. Vlfatch him next year! He will make ,em sick. Hamling added three points to our total by tying for first in the high jump-Three of them being unable to jump the tie-off divided the points. XVith eight points from Hall and Cartwright in the pole vault, and one point from XYood in the 440, the meet came to a close. The total stood: jefferson 62, Delphi 37. The next thing of interest to the Delphi track fans was the big Carroll County Track and Field Meet. The boys had been looking forward to this for some time. The schools entered were: Flora, Camden, Rockfield, and Delphi. ' , Cripe, of Camden seemed to be the shining light before the meet began, but failed to shine during the meet. He is a valuable man, however, and was iesponsible for most of Camden's points. Flora, of Flora lligh School was their best man, receiving a first and two thirds. 2 Delphi achieved high honor by taking six firsts, seven seconds. and two thirds, tying for first and second in the high jump. Among the first places we find Hamling, and Bradshaw in the dashesg Ginn, in the 440, 220 hurdles, and 880, Murphy in the mile, and Cartwright in the 120 hurdles- The meet closed with Delphi leading by a safe margin-582 points: Camden, second with 13 points, Flora, third with 12 points, while Rockfield finished fourth with 5 5X6 points. On May 1, Monticellols thinly clads motored over to try their luck with the Delphi team. Monticello had with them such men as XVashburn,, New- ton, Coble, and Mikesell. XVashburn had the record of defeating the speedy Chalmer's man in the 100 yard dash just the week before. Ile also brought with him some good records in hurdle races. May 1 proved to be a nice day, and most of the Delphi fans turned out. The meet started off with a rush, Hamling defeating XYashburn at a 10:2 clip. Bradshaw finished third. The next event, 220 finishing the same way. This seemed to furnish pep to the team: so when the 440 yard run was finished whom did we see but llamling finishing first. Vlfhen it came to the 880 and the mile Ginn and Murphy had something to say. They said it so strongly that Ginn won first in the 880 and Murphy tied for first in the mile. The meet continued in this manner throughout with Delphi in the lead. FIFTY THREE E .-,1 Ginn and Hall won first and third in the pole vault, Baum, first in the broad jump, Hamling and Cartwright, first and third in the high jump, while Raider picked up a second in the shot put. In the meet Delphi carried away 7 first places, 3 second places, S third places, and tied for first in the mile. The final score stood Delphi 57, Monticello 42. T XX CENTRAL INDIANA TRACK AND FIELD MEET 3 ' The Central Indiana meet was held on May eight at Delphi. The meet was composed of teams from the following schools: Jefferson QLafayetteD Lebanon Noblesville Frankfort Tipton Delphi May eighth proved to be a wonderful day for the occasion and all the visiting teams reported a delightful time, even though but one school could carry off the honors. This meet was one of the best held in the state. There were eighty-five athletes entered in the different events. Crowe, of Jefferson, showed speed as a dash man and won the hundred by a small margin. Young, of Noblesville, also showed that he was built for speed when he passed Crowe and won first place in the 220 yd. dash. NVe had not heard much of Tipton's track men, but we found when it came to the mile and half mile, she had some worth mentioning. XVerner, of Tipton, won the sensational race in the mile with Reagan, of Frankfort, finishing a close second. The high point winner of the meet, in addition to a medal, was given a free ride in an airplane. At the close of the meet the score showed that E- Crowe, of Lafayette, Smith, of Noblesville, and Young, of Frankfort, had tied for honors. Crowe did not stay for his ride, but Smith and Young en- joyed a trip in the air. The meet closed with Noblesville as winner, with twenty-eight points to her credit, jefferson second with twenty-five points, Frankfort, twenty, Tipton, sixteen, Lebanon, seven, and Delphi, three.

DISTRICT MEET The District Meet was held in Rochester on May 15th, and proved to be a feather in Delphi's cap' Only five men were taken over but they made up in speed what they lacked in numbers. The mcet started off with a rush with Bradshaw and Hamling placing in the tryouts, Delphi made all the spectators open their eyes when Hamling took tirst in all the dashes. liarl Ginn showed well and ran a good race, lin- ishing a close second in the 880 yd. run. Bradshaw of Delphi received as much or 1nore comment than any other man by winning third in the 100 and 220. They spoke of him as being a pretty runner. Raider, our only man in the field events, showed up well by taking a sec- ond in the shot put. Cartwright surprised many Rochester fans by taking a third in the 120 high hurdles, and running a pretty race in the relay. The relay, the last event of the day was also won by Delphi. It was a thrilling race and was not won till the third quarter, when Ginn pulled around his opponent and gave his team mate a good lead for the finish. The time was 3 min. 54 sec. This gives Delphi a fair chance for the state meet. Hamling, of Delphi, was the high point winner, winning a total of fifteen points. The Delphi team perhaps established a record which no other team in the meet did, by quqalifying 100 percent of her men for the State Meet.

The play was a farce full of action and clever speeches, and as the class had an unusual amount of dram- atic ability, the final production was one of the best plays ever given in Delphi High School. At the home of the Carr's all was in preparation for the marriage of Madge to blames Cluney. Two thieves, Nell and .lack lloogan, gain en- trance to the house and manage to secure many valuable articles. Mr. Carr, a very absent-minded old gentleman, believes himself to be a kleptomaniac, while his son-in-law-to-be thinks that he is the guilty one' They are led to this conclusion because all of the missing articles are found on them. Doogan is forced to pose as a detective first, then as Mr. Cluney, in order to divert suspicion from himself. He and Nell, his sweetheart, are just ready to make their getaway when the police take a hand aifd order a general search to be made. Doogan is obliged to get rid of his booty, and hastily manages to put the money in the minister's pocket, take the warrant from the sergeant and plant it on Mr. Carr. XX'hen the inevitable exposure finally comes and the thief is discovered, he makes a stand behind a levelled gun and succeeds in evading the police. Nell and Doogan beg for mercy, explain- ing that they planted all the missing articles on them. Mr. Carr and Cuney are so relieved to find that they are not kleptomaniacs, that they agree not to press the charge. All ends happily when Madge and Cluney, Nell and lloogan, and loan and the Doctor kneel before the ever-ready minister. FIFTY EIGHT laclivin. who has searched in vain all over Bateato ........

Bonnie, the toy maker'S daughter, wanders into the woods and lies down to sleep. The Sandman puts her under a magic spell and she has a wonder- ful dream. - y NVhile closing the shop for the night a wierd witch suddenly appears. Bonnie, though frightened, is very polite, and the witch gives her a bottle of magic smelling salts as a token of her good will. lloor Bonnie! The smelling salts are her misfortune for Tin Heart getS a whiff of them and im- mediately comes to life. He takes the salts from Bonnie and sets to work to bring every doll in the shop to life. Tin lleart and Prince Lollypop are both desperately in love with the wonderful French Doll, Fi-Fi, who is very fickle. Naturally she had the right to be for she cost 33.65. A The antics of the dolls nearly drive Bonnie frantic as She fears some of them will run away. Her fears are realized when the handsome Man-in-the- Moon appears, as Fi-Fi cannot withstand his pleadings and leaves with him for the moon. Bonnie and the dolls are broken hearted when they find that Fi-Fi has left them, but soon Bonnie remembers the witch's promise of help. So she repeats her requeSt and lo! instead of the wrinkled old witch, a beauti- ful fairy stands smiling beside her. The fairy calls up the planets and the Great Bear promises to growl at Fi-Fi and make her return. Fi-Fi returns and by a ruse of the fairy's learns that Tin Heart truly loves her while Prince Lollypop does not. She therefore gives her heart to Tin Heart. The grand finale shows all the dollS and groups on the stage while the Sandman sings to them and they return to mere dolls. Bonnie awakens in the woods again just as dawn is breaking. She runs home laughing gaily over her strange dream. The play was produced by Mr. Hilton lf. Dressel and was a decided success. SIXTY The County Oratorical Contest On the evening of April 17. there gathered in the D. ll. S. gymnaSiu1n representatives of all the County High schools competing in the annual County Oratorical and Declamation Contest. judges for the occasion were: Superintendent Tilder, of Monticellog Miss Howard, Principal of the Frank- fort High School: and Mr. Hershey, Spanish teacher in the jefferson High School. The Delphi representative for the boys was Maximo Borja, a Filipino who left the Philippine Islands in 1913, while he was yet a student in the Philipine School of Commerce. Max joined the U. S. Navy and Served for four years, beginning his naval career on the U. S. S. New Orleans, and being discharged from the U. S. S. Rochester. Max came to Delphi in 1917 at the instigation of lieutenant-Ccunmander Moyer, who recognized his value as an assistant to his wife and mother in their Delphi home. After living for two and one-half years in the Sibbett home, earning his way through two years of high school by his services to the family, Max left for more lucrative employment that would enable him to give more time to pursuing his studies for the last two years of high school. Max expects to earn his way through college, but he has not decided yet whether his alma mater is to be Northwestern University or Indiana Univer- sity. Maxls oration, Toussaint L,Ouverture, a favorite classic for all public speakers since it was first delivered by XVendell Phillips, was delivered in Maxis very impressive oratorical style. Sincerity is the keynote of Maxys genius. His pronunciation is still his handicap, but it only added charm to the piece that he had spent so many weeks in mastering. Delphi was represented in the girls' contest by Mayola Hostetter, daugh- ter of the Baptist minister of the city. She is sixteen years old, and is a soph- omore in the high school. She took third place in the Rock Tsland County Contest in Illinois. where Reverend Hostetter was stationed before coming to Delphi last year. That was a grade school contest: in her first year in high school she took second place in the Green County Contest. Mayola succeeds in public appearances through her charming and forceful personality which, added to the emotional appeal of her selection, 'fThe Promise a French war story, made her declamation a delightful piece of public address. SIXTY ONE The other county contestants gave a very excellent grade of oratory in their platform addresses, but the first place for both the boys' and the girls' contests was awarded to the Delphi representatives. Flora took second place in both events. ' The music for the occasion was furnished by the D. H. S. Glce Club, un,- der the direction of Miss Tharp, music teacher. The cornet soloist from the Flora High School gave two numbers between the two contests. A very appreciative audience was gathered to give its support to the evening's performance. A community interest in forensic contests is always a sure sign of local talent, which only needs the proper training to have it developed. The orators were given their training in the public speaking class which has been a feature of the curriculum for the past two years. The enrollment of sixteen members was necessarily limited because of the nature of the work, but the growing interest in public speaking in Delphi indicates that the course has a permanent place in a locality that has such promising material for the enthusiastic coach. Central Indiana Uratorical Contest The Gratorical and Declamation Contest for the North Central Indiana Contest this year was held in Delphi on May 8. Delphi is one of the smallest schools in this group of representative schools of Indiana among which are Lafayette, Crawfordsville, Lebanon, Tipton, Frankfort, and Noblesville. The two orators representing Delphi in the contest which was held Sat- urday afternoon at 3:30 in the high school gymnasium were Willizlm Smith in the boyls contest and Helen Arnott, in the girls' contest. Both contestants were trained in the public speaking class of the second semester. William Smith delivered President lVIcKinley's address on American Patriotism , and, though handicapped by a severe cold in his throat, put so much earnest and sincere effort into his excellent delivery of the piece that he came off with honors, being placed third by the judges. VVilliam Smith has been the most energetic of all the faithful class of '20. He was a junior in 1918. The summer following that, when but seventeen years of age, he enlisted in the U. S. Army and was sent to Camp Funston as a private in Co. F. 20th Infantry, which was General XVood's own division. He served as bugler and company runner. After about six months in the SIXTY TVVO XVest, he was transferred to Nitro, XYest Virginia, where he was still stationed when the armistice was signed. Mr. Smith was a member of the high school debating teams of the years '16, '17 and 'l8. His entrance in the Indiana Central Oratorical was his first attempt at public oratory. He is exceptionally talented with all literary gifts, and has made the most admirable editor that the 0racle has ever had. Miss Helen Arnott, who represented the girls with a declamatory read- ing The Death of Benedict Arnoldn by Lippard, is a Senior. Her entire school life has been spent in Delphi where she has made a reputation for herself in dramatics and elocutionary reading, taking part in class plays and high school plays. She is seventeen years old. She has never before taken part in a contest of a forensic nature, but, although she had been suf- fering from congestion of the bronchial tubes, she put forth a splendid effort, and succeeded in getting two third places according to the judges' scoring. The judges for the occasion were Superintendent Dean, of Rensselaerg Miss Cox, of Logansport, and Mr. Tauhler, public speaking teacher of Purdue. The program for the occasion was as follows: Music-f'Greetings to Springi' ............ .----- ................

SENIOR STUNT One of the features of this yearys work has been a program given at the chapel period by each of the classes. The Seniors started the ball a-rolling by presenting a clever one-act play written by Xvllllillll B. Smith, and entitled The Sobful Sorrows of Solomon, or job jumps His jobf' King Solomon and his court were all there including the wiggly, twisty harem girls. Poor Solomon! NVhat with his favorite wife raving because someone had put glue in her hair tonic and stove polish in her rouge, and another wife in love with the all-patient job, he did have a terrible time. lflowever, wise Job put all things right before he fled from the love of Peroxidine on the back of his faith- ful steed, Maud, back to the sagebrush and lizzards. JUNIOR STUNT School days, school days, Dear, old golden-rule days: Readin' and writin' and 'rithmetic Taught to the tune of the hickory stick ! The junior went back to olden days and were grade kiddies once more. Miss Gustavel, their Udear teacher, was a trifle prim and severe, but her Christmas program showed ability and good training. -SOPHOMORE STUNT The Sophomores entertained us with a mock Chautauqua. The jazzbo jazz Band in all its jazziness performed wonderfully. The leader is suspect- ed of having once been an acrobat. The eminent lecturer, Prof. E. D. VVoodenhood, discoursed on 'Scientific Investigations, and his climaxes were quite startling. The renowned elecutionist, Miss Hostetter, gave a very in- teresting reading and the Ladies Quartette sang a touching little ballad en- titled, There Is Ever a Song Somewhere. The Chautauqua closed its pro- gram with an original song Sophomores -sung by the entire company with the assistance of a stepladder. FRESHMAN STUNT The Freshman program had been planned for St. Patrickis Day, but due to various interruptions it was postponed several weeks. It lost nothing through delay however, and the students were delighted with the excellent interpretation of Irish songs and characteristics. George Smock and James Obear, the pick and shovel artists, made a hit with their Irish dialogues, and the irresistible coleens, with the aid of their gallant swains, sure transported us A' Far beyond the Irish sea. LATIN CLUB PLAYLET XVho said mice? That's what all the girls in the play The Mouse Trap, thought. This playlet, by XVilliam Dean Howells, was given during a chapel period by the second circle of the Latin Club. Those taking part were: George Smock, Martha Landis, Esther Shirk, Neva Keen, Isabelle Smock, Helen Kirkpatrick and Mary Sites. Mrs. Downey coached the cast and she is to be complimented for the results obtained. Martha made a very charm- ing and 'fcourageous' hostess, while George, though he showed amateur characteristics when it came to the love scenes, played his part very credit- ably. However, we shall never forget that beautiful Romeo expression on his face when he made that flying wabble with gracefully out-stretched arms towards the lady of his affections. SIXTY FOUR SENIOR CARNIVAL On the night of April 13, 1920 a carnival was given in the High School auditorium under the auspices of the Senior Class. There were dancers tjlapanese girls and Greek goddessesD, sideshows such as The Wlonderful George and For Men Onlyf' for which a small admission fee was charged. In the assembly, slides dealing with various high school activities and jokes on the students were exhibited. At various booths popcorn, cracker-jack, candy and ice cream were sold. fn all the Seniors cleared about hfty dollars, and all present reported a jolly good time. THE CHAMBER OF HORRORS! One of the most memorable events of the school year, was the Halloween Social given under the auspices of both the Parent Teachers Club and the Senior Class on the night of Oct. 28, 1919. Each guest came in masquerade costume and the girls brought boxes which were auctioned off by the 1'ar- ent Teachers Club in order to raise money to ht up a First Aid room in the school building. Upon entering the building, every persons was conducted by spooks through the Chamber Of Horrors. They were first taken to the fire-door which separates the old and new buildings. From there on only the fiash- lights of the guides broke the clammy darkness of the hallway. During the journey, low moans and clanking of chains that would make cold chills frisk up and down anyone's spinal column, could be heard. In going down the stairs to the lower fioor, the victims were forced to step upon a slide, where fhey were whizzed down into the fathomless darkness, through a bower of cornstalks, and into the arms of a groaning spook. At one place, each per- son was told to look upon his worst enemy, and, gazing into the depths of a seemingly dark fireplace, he beheld his own visage surrounded by light. At the next halt, in a gloomy pasage through the furnace rooms, each guest came face to face with a grinning ghastly skull, which, upon being asked, XVhat happens when the night fall? , moved its jaws and replied in horrible tones, The day breaks! The victim was then led to a dark recess in the wall where he behld the horrible person of Satan himself. Upon ask- ing him the question, VVhat would you do if you lost your tail? , he would answer, Go to a saloon where they retail bad spirits! Other marvels displayed were Old Faithful Geyser Ca squirt gunjg The Bottoniless Pit Ca dark boxj g The Ruins of Chinai' Cbroken dishesjg The Atlantic by Moonlightu Ca candle in a pan of waterjg A Man-Eating Chicken CA man eating a piece of ehickenj, and last but not least- The Basin of Sin-Cleansing XVater Shocking machine connected to a basin of water.j XVhen everyone had finally returned to the assembly room, a grand march led them to the gymn where XV. S. Margowski, a local Touchstone , auction- ed off the boxes. The evening was conluded with an interesting and hum- ourous program. The prizes for the best costumes were awarded to Eva Chapman and Aetna Gee. THE COUNTRY GENTLEMAN CAMPAIGN The school was given an opportunity this year to earn a nice sum of money for some worthy purpose by the Curtis Publishing Company. The high school students were to get subscriptions for the Country Gentleman and the school would be allowed a fifty percent commission on either new subscriptions or renewals. This was not to be a one year proposition but to continue indefinitely with the school continuing to receive fifty percent on SIXTY FIVE N! -ui the renewals of these same subscribers and all new ones they are able to get again next year. This was considered by the superintendent, principal and members of the Faculty to be a good proposition and it was decided that the funds se- cured should be used for the benefit of the school library which was in sad need of attention. B. L. Hummel, the instructor in charge of the Vocational Agriculture Department, was asked to take charge of the campaign. Eighty-four subscriptions in all were secured. This included a few sub- scriptions for the Saturday Evening Post and the Ladies Home Journal but gave the school a sum of forty dollars and seventy cents, which has been sufficient to improve the library to a considerable extent. Next year it is hoped that renewals may be secured from all present subscribers and that a great many new ones may be also gotten. The work, if continued, will enable the Delphi High School to build up one of the best high school librar- ies in the state. THE ARMENIAN RELIEF CAMPAIGN That D. H. S. is ever ready to lend a helping hand to suffering humanity was shown about the middle of April, when Mr. V. K. Beshgetoor, an Arme- nian residing in Indianapolis, addressed both the high school and grades in regard to the conditions existing in Armenia. His appeal made a strong impression upon the students and they con- tributed liberally to the relief fund. Self Denial XVeek was one of the fea- tures of the campaign. The school as a whole contributed 313565, of which we have reason to be proud. VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT The teaching of agriculture on a vocational basis had been discontinued during the past two years but was started again this year with Mr. B. L. Hummel as instructor in this department. A large number of students ap- plied for the work in the fall and a good interest has been manifest through the year by those who were admitted to the course. This course is designed to be of special interest to those who expect to become farmers and it is be- lieved that a larger number of the country pupils will come to Delphi High School because of the opportunity to take such a course. Special courses in agriculture are studied each year and those electing the work continue the work for four years. This year poultry, vegetable gardening, dairying and fruit growing were the subjects studied. Chicks were hatched at the school building in an electric incubator, plants grown in a hotbed near the school building, milk was tested at school showing the value of the cows at the boys homes and a large amount of pruning and spraying was done by the boys in their home orchards. The class has made several trips to Purdue University and other points of interest to study various problems relating to their work, Near the end of the year an egg show and general agriculture exhibit was held which proved of interest to the entire high school. In the evening after the exhibit an egg roast was held at the School Garden and all in attendance had a good time. The prize-winning dozen of eggs were entered in the state egg show and stood high in the placing. The entire Vocational Class attend- ed the Boys and Girls Round Up at Purdue during the week of May 3-7 and had a most pleasant and profitable time. The work has not only been of interest locally but Purdue University selected this school for the first Teacher Training School for Vocational Agriculture in the state. Mr. Hummel was employed by the University for this work at the middle of the year and students have come from the University each day during the second semester to observe the work done here and to teach under Mr. Hummel's direction. It is believed that Vocational Agricultural work has now come to stay. SIXTY SIX Y THE HARDUPITITES AND THE CLACEDRESSERITES And it came to pass that in the second year of the reign of Scales The Great, a plague was visited upon the subjects of his realm. The blue pallor that o'er spread the land was without precedent in the memory of the oldest and most revered prophets of the tribe, and consternation spread throughout the ranks of the Bluebloods. The plague, for such was the nature of the calamity, was fore-shadowed by Hicostus, the dragon of Prohteer Mountaing for, descending from the por- tals of his lofty habitat, he ravaged the kingdom of Delphilibus and brought terror to the hearts of the Hardupitities. About the eighteenth day of the fourth month, Earlaloo Ginnus, the chief of the Hardupitites, gathered his tribesmen together in council and thus wisely admonished them, Hear ye, O ye faithful and true of heartfwe are sorely pressed, the dragon of Prohteer Mountain hath ravaged our land and stricken our pocketbooks. Far away to the north, east, south and West of us, our brother Highschoolitites were thus afflicted: but, in defense of their liberties, they hath mobilized their tribal resources, converted the Calce- dresserites to their cause, and, with one accord hath donned the armor of the God Overallus and conquered the foe. XVe must do likewise would we drive this monster from our Fatherland. But on our own resources alone, can we depend. The royal blood of our Clacedresserites will not suffer itself to be dcfiled by the armor of Uverallus. XVe must stand aloneli' The Hardupitites responded faithfully to the plea of their chieftain, and, ignoring the sneers and jeers of the unfaithful. soon drove the dragon Hi- costus back to his lair among the crags of Prohteer Mountain. The aristocrats of the realm, the Clacedresserites, deeming it beneath their dignity and pride to don the armor of Uverallus, and safeguarded by Lottacoinus, the god of their fathers, refused to come to the aid of their stricken brethern. Hence they spurned the armor of the llardupitites and aided not in the defeat of the dragon Ilicostus. .

This club was named the 'Kllhilobiblian tlover of booksj Club. Those students ofthe English classes who read books amounting to one hundred points in all were charter members. The club continued over into the year of 1920. Any member who was invited to join might do so after being initiated. After the invitation the club consisted of thirty-six members.

H. S. Health, as the keynote of beauty, has become the standard of the girls of D. ll .S. Splendid vitality with a clear and clean outlook on life is the basis of the moral fiber that makes the girlhood of D.ll.S. the finest attribute of the City of Delphi. A large enrollment in physical training work for the second year that it has been offered in the high school means that the girls are alive to the value of consistent and persistent exercise. Calisthenics, educational and hygienic, corrective gymnastics, and ryth- mic plays are a part of the course as outlined in the State Bulletin on Physical liducation. Provisions had been made during the summer months to accommodate twenty-five girls at a time in new individual booths in the dressing room. There were two classes each semesteruand each class 1llCt twice a week. During the second semester a Friday talk 'on physiology and hygiene was a feature of the course. The state tests were given in March when about fifty girls succeeded in qualifying in the eight events out of twelve which gave them the state phys- ical eliiciency emblems. XVhen the l'arent-Teachers' Association decided to give a play for the purpose of provding the dressing room with showers, the girls' gymnasium classes were drilled in the steps for the production, Fi-FL' and performed their parts as l'aper Dolls, China Dolls and Bridesmaids in a very commend- able manner. Martha Landis gave a beautiful solo dance with the Brides- maids. ln May a Field Day was held in the School Gardens in which the girls of the gymnasium classes excelled in their interpretations of the May Day exercise handed down from Qld linglish customs.

Hints On How to Be Popular Never open your mouth unless to swallow something. Make it your own business to let the other fellow start the argu- ment. Always look as if you were inter- ested in what your companion is saying. Keep your desk full of note-book paper. You can never tell when your friend is liable to be out. Never say Yes, I heard that yester- day. Keep your mouth shut if you get 90? on a test? The other fel- low will think that you had a pull with the teacher. Lend your note-book paper to any- one who asks for some and look as if you expected to be repaid. If a person casually remarks, Did I pay you back that ten cents I borrowed of you,'l don't fail to say Uyesf, Charles Baum QBack from the cityj -There was an awful accident on the street car today.

Smffom' Engm ings and Smffom' Ser ire Our conception of service to the schools we work with in- cludes much more than inercly giving the highest quality of en- gravings that it is posible to produce. XXI always take a keen interest in both the linancial and the artistic success of every Annual for which we are privileged to prepare the engravings. It was this interest that prompted us in the preparation and publication of the Stafford handbook, ICngravings for College and School Publications which we furnish, free of charge, to the .Xnnuals for which we work, The success of this book and the fact that we' were originators of this niethod of co-operation, is to us a source of considerable pride. The publishers of this Annual will tell you that in the plan- ning, financing and preparation of their book, this Stafford hands book was a veritable gold mine of helpful ideas and suggestions. A copy of this book, in addition to all the direct and individual co7operation you may need, and the beneht of our nearly thirty years specialization in college and school engraving, is available to all schools that appreciate this idea of service.

This record, though not entirely complete, contains every address that we have been able to beg, borrow or steal. Any omissions or mistakes are due to unavoidable circumstances, lack of t1me and incomplete records of graduates.

FELLOW' CLASSMATICS-we are leaving the affairs of this school in your hands. You must continue to publish the ORACLE-your class pride and the reputation of D. H. S. demands it. Though prices may fluctuate and other conditions remain unsettled, there is one source of support that will always continue to co-operate with you-the DELPIWII MERCHANTS! Give them a square deal in return for their support-show by your pat- ronage of Delphi Business that you appreciate their help in making IJ. H, S. a BIGGER AND BETTER SCHOOL!
