It is my belief that, as my duty to my school, I should uphold and assist it in every way possible, the various movements and organizations that tend toward the raising of the school’s standard. 1 believe in the good judgment of the Teachers; and feel that their actions are prompted by the best motives. I believe that the Honor of the School is of the greatest importance, as it is one of the noblest institutions of this Country. T believe it is my bounded duty to so do. That when I leave these studious halls, I shall take with me a bounteous store of love and knowledge everlasting. 1 4 —Ruby Ernst II. 10 1 THAT HIGH SCHOOL HELL That nil'll School Hell, that High School hell, How many souls with rapture swell! The boys and girls and teachers, too, Obey its call without ado. These joyous days will pass away. And many a heart that now is gay, In distant lands will sadly dwell. And hear no more that High School Bell. And so ’twill be when we are gone. Those gladsome peals will still ring on, While others drink at learning’s well And heed your call, dear High School Bell. —Nelson Ballard H-9 15 £Ke lcp£LBrortco To the Faculty Though deeply learn’d in business lore, Of making rules, he knows still more, But rules and all, he’ll ever be To us the same dear A. O. C.; For making English students sigh, You can’t beat .Miss Owens of Denton Hi; Mr. Pierce teaches History of all ancient times; Miss Mizell in Spanish loves to puzzle our minds. Miss Wisdom, Virgil and Cicero does read; From Miss Brown you get all the English you need; In History we are instructed by Miss Farris, On exams, and with map books you must never be careless. As a side line to teaching Domestic Arts. Miss Aikin specializes in breaking hearts. Miss Lacy teaches us to sew. and be good house-wives; Miss Brashears is a true friend to students of all sizes; ’Tis nice to be taught by Miss Angel, She keeps the Mathematicians out of a tangle; For teaching English or leader of the Girls Club, Miss Hatch, the High Schood girls do love; In Mathematics Mrs. Norman does shine; While English is Miss Simmon's line. We are told of the Ancient times by Miss Tevis, She can do any thing, even decline “levis”. Miss Rowan as instructor of Music and Mirth. Her equal can not be found on earth. While Messrs. Stanton and Taylor form an alliance, To teach these poor students all of their science. Of Masculine teachers we have quite a few, Mr. Logan is our favorite of them, too, We all know when a friend we need,— Mr. Doggett is a friend indeed. —Lillian Cole—H. 10 16 °(3 e lc£i£L Bronco Mid-Term Senior Class OFFICERS CLEO OLIVER................................President LUTZ BONAR ...........................Vice-President SAM WEST...................................Treasurer JEWEL SIZEMORE........................Class Editor 1 i 1 8 JEWELL SIZEMORE—% Year Domestic Economy 2 years.

You haven’t heard about our class ’21 Hut you soon will, and oodles too, when I've once begun. We first went on a picnic out to Taylor’s Lake 'Cause we are made of sterner stuff We seniors of ’21. After our swim, we told ghost tales to freshen up our minds. Then homeward bound by ten o’clock we started once again. And each and every one agreed our trip was not in vain. Then once again we started out. dull care to chase away. This time ’twas on a Wienie Roast and say, If we didn’t have fun no other class ever did. And care and gloom, that dreary pair sure found a place and hid, ’Cause we were all kept busy, we all had lots to do— Toasting marshmallows, roasting wienies and building bon-fires, too. We played and played ’til ten o’clock, then homeward bound we went. And there we talked all over again the happy hours we’d spent. Soon Hallowe’en; the night of ghosts and witches weird and drear, Came round again, and brought with it the first party of the year. This time we met at Dori’s home; and masked in costumes gay. And had our proms and games and eats and every kind o’ play That evening spent we’ll every one remember in .veal's to come;— And I am sure there’s not one who will deny We had just worlds of fun. A ’Possum hunt: just lots of fun When you’re jolly around; And of our jolly senior bunch, I think We’ve good rights to be proud. So we started out to see if we the ’possum could but find. Hut where we went I’ll never know ’Cause all we did was wind We found the ’possum wasn’t home That the water was all dry And we were all so thirsty—“Water” became our cry. Hut we just waited ’til we got home and then we drank our fill, And if we ever go again it won’t be against our will. All these good times, and many more We’ve had throughout the year And as we now recall them all our hears are filled with cheer, For we have had such jolly times in this last Senior year. 24 26 GEORGIE HARRIS COOPER—4 Years Science, 3 years.

We must leave all these friendly halls; We must part from our teachers—from the friends in our class From the scenes of joy which memory recalls. We must leave the dear days of high school behind, And return to them never again. But the knowledge we’ve gained thru our teachers so kind, We 'll never forget and we’ve surely not gained it in vain. So farewell, dear high school, our own Denton High. May you ever grow larger and your colors ever fly, Over all other schools, over all other teams ’Til like stars in the sky your merits will gleam, Tho’ we’re far away our hearts will be true. And full of good thoughts and best wishes for you. So never forget us for we’ll ne’er forget you, As long as we live and the heavens are blue. May you always in sorrow and joys and fun, Remember the Senior class of ’22. 48 Junior Class Motto We Build The Ladder By Which We Climb. Colors Green and Pink. Flower Sweet Pea.

Look around and you will see; We are not labled in green or red, But we are Juniors feat’s enough said. We are proud of the Denton High, And will do our best to make things fly. The Seniors think they will do it all— But first or last, on the Juniors! call. Nothing’s wrong with the Junior class! With the Junior Lad, or the Junior Lass; We’re here for work, and we’re here for fun, And that’s not our object half begun. We are Juniors now—you may say, But we’ll be Seniors some sweet day, As a Junior class we will do our best, But as Seniors—we’ll beat the rest. Oh, Junior class! make good your name, And win yourself a crown of fame, It’s up to us—one and all. Juniors! Juniors! do not fall! —Elaine Smoot II. 10 !°(j 2 lcp£L Bronco HISTORY OK JUNIOR CLASS We entered Denton High School in September, with one hundred members on roll. The High School life was begun with glee, but after a few weeks it was found to our sorrow, to be more work than fun, and we also found that we did not amount to nearly so much as we thought. The next year we were “Sophs” with seventy members on roll. We were less in number but much more important. We accomplished miracles that year under Miss Gertrude Owens, Miss Wisdom, Miss Hayless, Miss Mi .ell and Mr. Calhoun. At the beginning of this year, we gathered our forces together and resolved to be the most important class in High School. We are daily striving to accomplish this ambition, and already the other classes “look up” to the Juniors. OI)K TO TilK JUNIORS There, little Class!

We’re not educators, nor are we detestable, Gaining ground whenever possible We are Sophomores, an ideal class Firmly united, although a great mass. And who are they, is the question asked 'Tis more than Webster has said and often has passed— “The second year in a four years course!” But excuse me, I ’ll give it more force The Sophomore year to my knowledge Is the preparation for a Junior, Senior, and for college. On the happy days of last September, Every one does well remember How we studied in our books And our faces had brighter looks; How we started with new vigor And we felt just so much bigger Sitting in the Sophomore’s room— Which by now seems like gloom. The football season soon drew nigh Leaving the Sophs champions of Denton Hi. In all activities of the school, The Sophomores lead as a rule In Orchestra. Glee Club, or Literary Society Much talent is found in this great variety; But if you want to beat the Sophs of ’22 I’ll tell you now it’s hard to do. —P. Charles La Bourne 56 THE SOPH’S WAIL Right here in this little town, Sits a school of great renown; And in the study-hall on the wall, An ancient time piece says to all— Forever—never, Never—forever! And to the Sophs, tired of school, Who ask with weary sigh If ever they will “Seniors” be, The old clock makes reply— Forever—never, Never—forever! 57 THE PISII OF 1021 On a morn in September, Tis a day to remember, The Fish of Nineteen Twenty One Found that our trials had begun. Our schedules we could not make And no one the time would take To have pity and show us how,— But you should just watch us now. Our rooms we did not know. And how weary we would grow; In walking up and down the hall. Now we know them one and all! Always we played the game, Soon our trials we overcame. And now we journey along, With a smile and a happy song. We are every body’s friend, And ever ready a hand to lend. Always willing to help, don’t fear. Always ready to dry your tear! Ever ready to do a kind deed; Come to us when you’re in need. And seldom will you find a Fish Who’s not willing to do your wish. —Thelma Orr, Fresh. 69 FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY We, as Freshmen, entered Denton High School in the fall of Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-one. With steady steps and a calm determination to win, we plodded the upward path supreme, holding forth in one hand an olive branch and in the other a paddle of polished wood. Few there were that took the paddle, for the most of us meekly accepted the olive branch and resumed our upward Journey. In History, English, and Algebra we reached a mark of honor, but in Latin we often despaired and many fell by the way side. But with few exceptions, we all reached a higher plane of knowledge in the spring of twenty-two. After all we are destined to fame, for our grammarians, Mathematicians, Musicians, Orators and Cartoonists are sure to lead the school. We shall give to the world a clearer and higher estimation of maroon and white; and in the years to come the world will look back upon Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-one and Twenty-two as “the Holden Age” of Denton High because of what we, as Fish, contributed to its welfare. —Margaret Beasley. 00 r VOR mlTE 01 B’liiaiiia BiiiiiimtiB itmiMM'i I■ IB IMMB •IIIIIIIBIMMimmiMt - . | a ........................... ■ • 1 V !

He was a member of the team last season. Legs could be depended upon to open up a hole when called upon; and he was a sure tackier. At backing up the line “Legs”, has no equal. The team will suffer a great loss, as he will not be back next season. LOYD McCOMBS—Nick Name “Pic” “Pie” was one of the main stays of this year’s squad. He was a hard hitting, hard tackling, and a line plunger, of exceptional ability”. “Pie”, was also used at various positions, and seldom met his equal in any one. The team will miss “Pie” next year as he will not be back; he leaves a place that will be hard to fill as he has filled it. RICHARD WISDOM—Nickname “Hap” “Hap” was a find this year. He was worked at tackle at the beginning of the season, but was shifted to the back-field. “Hap”, is a side stepper of no mean ability, and very few end runs were made around his side of the line. He will be a member of next year’s squad. “Hap” was elected Captain. We expect great things of him. 7 1 LETTER MEN BRYANT CLEMENTS—Nick Name “Maneater'' “Maneater” is all (he name implies. He was a man feared by our opponents very much as the first thing they would ask was. is “M neater” Clements playing? “Man eater” is the best forward pass man that ever played on a Denton Gridiron; a good punter, and a man that could carry the ball for a gain when others failed. He will not be back next year, and he will leave a place that is not easy to fill. p JAMES KNOX—Nick Name “Short), ' “Shorty” hails from Alvord. This is Shorty’s first year of football, but despite the fact that he was new to the game he is a lines man to be depended upon. He tarkled hard and opened up holes when called upon to do so. “Shorty” will be back next year and will be a man hard to stop. Tjv, LACY GATEWOOD—Nick Name “Red I acy played his first year of football this year. He is a lines man hard to beat. Oftentimes he would pile up the line of our opponents, keep them from making any gain through his position. He will be an added strength to next year’s squad as he has another year of High School. 7 2 LETTER MEN n CHARLES TAYLOR—Nick Name “Choc” m “Choc” played like an old timer at quarter, but this was his first year. He is the hardest hitting and hardest r tackier of any man on the team. “Choc” never lost his head, but always remained cool in a game as a passer. He is hard to equal. He could pick holes to go through when plunging the lines. “Choc” will be a great loss to next year’s team as he will not be back. Joe was the lightest man on the team, but he made up for his smallness by the way he played at quarter. He could always find a weak spot in the other teams’ line up. Joe could pass well, punt well, and carry the ball fine. He will be an asset to next year’s team. RICHARD RATES—Nick Name “Outlaw” Dick had his knee hurt early in the season, but it did not hamper his playing to a very great extent. He played at center and also at guard. His passing the ball was fine. “Outlaw” never missed a tackle and as a hole opener he can’t be beat. He will not be back next season, and his place will be hard to fill. JOE GAMBILL—Nick Name 73 LETTER MEN HUBERT RICHARDS—Nick Name “Squeegee” “Squeegee” played at end and his rushing the passer often prevented our opponents from attempting any passes. Rarely did an end run go far around his end as he would break it up before it got started. On receiving passes Hubert was good. He will be a great strength to the team next year. WILLIE BEAN—Nick Name “Kcclcr” The type of football played by “Keeler is a sure winner. “Keeler” played end this season, and oftentimes he would get through and throw the runner for a loss. Keeler’s punting was a feature of any game, and his ability to receive long passes often times netted long gaines. He carried the ball in a pinch and could rip off fifteen yards around end like a machine. He will be a big loss for next season. FRED VOIGT—Nick Name “Big Botf' Voigt played his first year this season at tackle. He was a big man. a tackier not to laugh at, and a linesman to be praised. “Big Boy” rarely met his equal and could rush through our opponents line to throw the runner for a loss. He will be a bigger man next year than he was this year, and he will certainly strengthen our squad. 74 LETTER MEN JUDGE GAMBILL—Nick Name Judge” Judge was a star of Thanksgiving game. In this game he found himself. Judge played end and backfield as well. He could receive a pass carry the hall and tackle fine; Judge has three more years of High School football. FRANK BELKIN—Nick Name “Belkins” Frank was our center and mainstay of our line. He played an aggressive game of ball at all times. His pass ing was extraordinarily fine. As a tackier and a hole opener he was just as good. He will be with us again next season and we expect to hear more of him. CARL MILLER—Nick Name “Hurnpty” This wras “Humpty’s” first year of football. He was a man who could be depended upon to play his position well at all times. “Hurnpty” broke through our opponents lines and would tackle the runner for a heavy loss. He has two more years of High Scnool football and will be a mainstay of next year's team. 76 ALVIN KELSAY—Nick Name • liml” “Bud is by far the most dependable man in the D. H. S. backfield this season. Such a thing as a fumble or failure to make a gain were unknown to him. If a few yards were needed. Bud was the man. He was the best interference runner, the deadliest tackier, and defense man on the D. H. S. team. The high school will lose a splendid school fellow and football player when Bud graduates this Spring. REVIEW OF THE FOOTBALL SEASON When the 1921 football season opened. Coach “Topsy” Wilkerson had about 35 candidates out. With only two letter men and our new material showing up good, our prospects for a successful season were fine. With two weeks training in hot weather, we were whipped into shape for our first game. (1) On September 2 we played Valley View here. As this was the first game of the season, a little nervousness was noticeable. Valley View proved to he easy. This game was just good practice for the Denton team. The score was 63 to 0 in favor of Denton. (2) Our next game was with Polytechnic, here on October 7. The “Poly” team out weighed the Denton team. We had been strengthened by the return of “Keeler” and “Maneater”. The game was a hard fought battle from the start until the finish. When the last whistle had blown, and the score was taken, “Poly” 20—Denton 10. (3) On October 14 we went to Dallas to play the Forest Avenue squad. The game was played in the morning. Denton was weakened before the game as “Maneater” had missed the train. The first quarter, Denton held the heavier Forest team. The Forest squad line-bucked, and hammered the Denton team until 76 REVIEW OF THE FOOTBALL SEASON Continued her defense was weakened by injured players. Fumbles at eritieal times proved to be disastrous for the Denton team; by these fumbles Forest was enabled to run up a large score. The game ended with Denton 0 and Forest 51. (4) October 24 we played the heavy Sherman team here. The game was hard fought from the beginning until the end. The Denton team was much lighter than the Sherman team, but despite the fact that they were outweighed, they played Sherman to a standstill. Sherman scored the otdy score, a punk punt. The score was (i to 0 in Sherman’s favor. (5) October 28 we journeyed to Gainesville to play our ancient rival. The game was played very slow on account of the high wind. It was in this game that “Hap” showed up so well. The game ended with Denton holding the big end of the score—14 to 0. (6) On November 4 we played another rival—McKinney. Both teams were evenly matched. The game was anybody’s game from start to finish. Both teams fought every inch of the ground. This was the best played game of the season, and the score stood 7 to 7 at the end of the last quarter. (7) On Armistice day the team went to Celina to play ball. The game was a hard fight from the first whistle. “Maneater” was the star of the game. His end runs and a drop kick from the thirty yard line was the feature of the game. Denton 17 and Celina 0 was the outcome. (8) November 18 Leonard Hi was the next victim. The Leonard team was a heavier team than the Denton Hi squad, but did not have the speed that Denton had. The game was played in a slow drizzle but this did not slow up the play. “Legs” ran 75 yards for a touch down in this game. The game ended with Denton 28 and Leonard 6. (fl) On November 24 a return game with Celina was played. The day was a cold cloudy day, just fine for a football game. The Denton team had played this team before and solved their plays easily. In this Judge made some pretty “shoe string” tackles. The game ended with Denton 83 and Celina 20. This ended a most successful football season. 77 70 MAUDE LARAMORE Guard OREA BENNETT Running Center PEARL WEST Guard 80 'GC.h ? lg£i£L Bronco, LOIS BENNETT Running Center loQCL Bronco W LOIS DAVIS Guard OFFICERS OF THE BASKET BALL TEAM OREA BENNETT.

Basket Ball Girls opened the season by playing Celina High School, although the girls had practiced only a short time, the victory was for us by a score of 7 to 9. Next in lino was a game with the North Side High School of Ft. Worth— Ft. Worth was sure of a victory, but was badly fooled, for the D. H. S. girls defeated them easily by a score 21 to 5. The return game was played in Ft. Worth. We had defeated them on our court, so we did not have to work very hard. The result was another victory added for us to the tune of 14 to 11. Our forwards, Marjorie Whittington and Alice Wheelock, did splendid work in both games. Next we played several games for County Championship. First we played Pilot Point High, at Pilot Point, with a 7 to 9 score. A return game was played at Denton, the Score was 15 to 17; Denton coming out with the big end of the score both times. The centers L. Bennett and Bulbrook showed good work. At the County meet, Denton High was victorious over Lewisville 7 to 25, and Ponder 4 to 43; thus giving us the championship of Denton County. A great excitement was created when the fast Waco High team came here. Both teams were equally matched. When the ball was tossed up in center, Waco had the tip-off. At the end of the first half, the score stood 2 and 5 in Waco’s favor. Good work was shown by the I). II. S. guards, for Waco only made six points in the last half. The final score was 8 to 11 in Waco’s favor. Coach Owens decided that she would see how the I). H. S. Girls could really play. She matched a game with San Marcos Normal, our girls did some dandy good work. The score was 10 and 7 in I). II. S. favor. When the Southwestern girls came to play the N. T. S. N. C., we were successful in obtaining a game. The D. H. S. girls easily won the game from them by a score of 14 and 5. Our girls closed the season by playing First Baptist team at Forest High Gymnasium in Dallas. The girls did some good work, but came out with a slight defeat by a score of 7 to 9. 84 85 BASEBALL TEAM The first practice began in the first part of March. The weather was not very good for baseball, but despite this the team had some good workouts with only one letter man back. Coach H. V. Stanton had a hard job in weeding out a team from so much new material. The first game was played with McKinney High, at McKinney on March the 24th. This being the first game many errors were made at critical moments, which enabled McKinney to pile up a score of Eleven to One. On the next Friday McKinney played a return game. The final score was Fifteen to Two, in favor of McKinney. Joe Gamill, polled a home run in this game. On the Seventh of April, Denton went to Sanger, and beat the Sanger team Six to Five. A good season is the outlook, despite the bad beginning. 86 OFFICERS OF GIRLS’ CLUB OFFICERS OF FIRST TERM ROBERTA BLEWETT..........................................President MARIE KAY...........................................Vice-President LURA SHEPARD.............................................Secretary MARY SNYDER..............................................Treasurer ALLEEN WRIGHT.............................................Reporter DORTHY SPEER................................................Critic SECOND TERM LUCILE WALLIS............................................President LOIS BAIRD..........................................Vice-President MARY YANCEY..............................................Secretary LAURA DEAN WISDOM........................................Treasurer ANNA LOLLEY...............................................Reporter MAGGIE DAVIE................................................Critic 88 ROLL OF MEMBERS Club Colors................................................Purple and Gold Flower . . ..........................................Gladiolus Motto.................“The Highest Ideal of American Girlhood Realized ' Esther Bates Hazel Mahan Audria Boyd Willie McGintie Helen Bailey Jewel Phillips Helen Bullbrook Jewel Paxton Gladys Coleman Bernice Pierce Hazel Corn Lillian Shepard Verna Cox Ame Bass Smith Georgia Cooper Edna Wilkinson Lillian Cole Mildred Sqyres Nancey Sue Christal Elaine Smoot Rhea Da Lee Arra Swinebroad Marie Fowler Willie Weeden Staples Ruth Fenwick Thelma Chambers Eugenia King Roberta Lee Poole Martha Kunkle Dalton Maxwell Marie Kohnova Josie Belle Fenwick Elizabeth Lomax Miss Eva V. Hatch—Sponsor 89 80 THE GIRLS’ CLUB HISTORY The Girls’ Chib of the Denton High School was organized with twenty five charter members on September 21, 1921. by Miss Eva V’. Hatch of the English Department. The purpose of this organization is to train girls in literary, dramatic, social, and welfare work. The club has met each Monday for a literary or dramatic program. The literary programs include declamations, debates, original talks, and studies of great women, either modern or Shakesperian. Several plays either by club members or by standard authors have been produced this year. “The Variety Show,” the annual production, was a success, both artistically and financially. Socially, the Club has had several triumphs: the receptions for the Waco Basket Ball Girls, for the High School Faculty and the Burke Literary Society; the entertainment for the Football Team; the Bronco Staff Party; the Masquerade Party on Hallowe’en; and the Annual Club Banquet. The Banquet was considered by both guests and members as a very unusual success. The welfare work of the Club is taken care of by a special committee. This year that committee made a donation to the poor at Christmas, aided the Woodrow Wilson Foundation Fund, the Red Cross, and the Music Memory Contest. A free entertainment fostered by this committee was given to the Corinth Public School, when it closed March 24th. Other activities of the Club include declaiming and debating. Miss Helen Bulbrook represented the Club as a declaimer and Misses Ruth Fenwick and Dorothy Speer as debaters in the Interscholastic League Contest. All three girls reflected credit on themselves, on the Club, and on the Denton High School. 9 1 “BURKE LITERARY SOCIETY” The Burke Literary Society was organized a year ago for the purpose of promoting debating, declamation, and public speaking in general. We put out a debating team, and two declaimers last year of exceptional quality, and plan to do as much this year. This term it was decided by the charter members that the organization should be open to boys only. At the initial meeting of this year held September the Twenty-third, the following officers were elected for the year: Sponsor and advisor—A. O. Calhoun. President—Author Jones; Vice-President, and reporter Glen Burch; Secretary, Piner Powell; Treasurer and Critic, Malcom Stroup; Sergeant-at-Arms, Jack Crawford. About twenty charter members attended the first meeting; and nearly as many more were enrolled at the second. The first program given by the Society was in form of a “trial”. The principal figures of which were: Malcom Stroup (Judge); Ed. I. Key (Defendant); Piner Powell (Attorney for defense) and Glen Burch (Counsellor for the State). The charge was that of violation of the Volstead act, for which indictment the defendant was found guilty after a long and interesting trial. The society is well launched on what bids fair to be a most successful year, in all branches. Three of last year’s debators remain, and the prospects are exceedingly bright for declamation. 92 PINER POWELL DAMON DEAN ROYCE TERRY BURKE LITERARY IDEALS Aspire not to the lowly things of earth, But among the good and great do thou seek. Search not for pomps and glory vain. But for the noble, the pure and the meek. “What though thou gain the whole world, And yet thou hast not love . Then, fellow—lab’nor, think thou not To be blessed with riches from above. Obey ever, the Golden Rule, And thy friends’ good will be thine. “Love thy neighbor as thy self”. Do this and gain great wealth divine. For the man of joy, content, and peace, Hath not the way of worldly glory trod; But ever hath he nob’ly dwelt. In the great sustaining love of God.

H. S. met Wednesday. September 28th, 1921, for purposes of organizing a Spanish Club. Many of the Spanish pupils took a great interest in this club, and with Mary Mizzell at the head, the following officers were elected: President, Joe Parks; Vice-President, Mary Snyder; Secretary, Treasurer and Reporter, Dalton Maxwell. The Social committee soon planed a Picnic at Egan’s Pasture and all members reported a good time. 95 HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA Have you heard the Orchestra? The Orchestra of fifteen members, Sends forth music in blazing embers. Its fame has spread from town to town, For the able leadership of Alta Rowan. Take any sound that you have heard From the deep thunder to the joyful bird If they can’t imitate the sound, There’s no use to look around. For better you cannot find Since no member is found behind When the playing is begun. They take it as their personal fun Our leader never fails to send An Orchestra that Strauss would recommend! 96 I). H. S. LIBRARY The Denton High School Library is small, but a vital unit of our High School. We are handicapped for lack of room, and because of lack of funds, the growth has been very slow. However, we have now about twenty-three hundred volumes, most of which are usable,—not just self fillers. One Hundred and fifty volumes have been added this year. We are especially proud of our collection of books for Home Economics. Our Library in this department will compare favorably with that of many schools much larger than ours. Our fiction shelves have suffered while some other departments were being built up. but it is hoped these may be replenished by another year. The Library has been kept open to students only half of the day this year, but the librarian has tried to give all students a chance to get books by allowing them to be taken out for brief periods through the day. The daily average number of reference books taken out is about seventy-five. A quiet studious atmosphere usually prevails in the Library. There are exceptions, however, for sometimes a “Fish” bolts right in and talks out in a big. loud voice much to the amusement of the sedate “Sophs” who have learned better. On being located so near “the office”, the echoes from the “santum sanctarium” are sometimes wafted in as a pleasant reminder of the stern realities of High School Life. 97 The Home-Economics Department this year has horn expanded from a two-unit course to a four-unit course, and has been made vocational. In addition to the old course of one unit of foods and one unit of clothing, the department offers one-half unit of physiology and hygiene, one-half unit of home nursing, one-half unit of household management and one-half unit of costume design Two teachers are employed by the local board of education at a salary of $1500 each per annum, one-half of which amount is paid by the State and Federal governments. The teachers employed by the local board of education are Miss Ruth Aikin and Miss Mary Lacy. They have been ably assisted this year by thirty voung-women students of the College of Industrial Arts under the direction of their teachers, Miss Greta E. Smith. Miss Emma .Jensen and Miss Joan Hamilton. The young women have been doing this practice teaching as a part of their training for the teaching of vocational home economies in Texas 08 high schools next year. The arrangement has been entirely satisfactory to both the Denton High-School authorities, and the authorities of the College of Industrial Arts, so far as we have been able to ascertain. It is hoped that this plan can be continued next year. About 125 girls are taking the course. Kach girl who takes the course must spend half of her time in school with the work in class room and laboratory. The avowed purpose of the course is to prepare girls for home making. About one-fourth of the girl’s high-school career, if she takes home economies, is devoted to that work. The inauguration of vocational home economics this year is the first step in a well-defined policy of the superintendent to add more vocational courses to the High School curriculum. It is hoped that next year there will be commercial courses, and a course in vocational agriculture added in line with our policy. 89 TABLE SERVICE Truly “Bread is the staff of life”; and in America, the bread must be well served to be apetizing. There are four forms of table service: Russian, the most formal service where all food is served from the kitchen: English, where the food is served from the table by the host and hostess; Compromise, a combination of Russian and English and Family, English service modified to meet family needs. Family srevice is the most practical and most used table service in our Southern homes. It is stressed in our Home Economics teaching. The girls act as host and hostess at meals that are served, and thereby learn the true duties of a host, or hostess. This form of service is so very simple and practical that it can be used in homes of moderate circumstances. Table service does not mean a display of silver, china, and linen, but it does mean the serving of food in the most attractive, and most graceful manner. There are, however, some few conventional rules that one must follow. Each day our girls learn these rules and practise them. They are becoming less self-conscious, and are gaining poise and charm, two qualities which every good hostess must possess. 100 ? loJiSL Bronco THE LATIN CLUB We are the Latin Club; and are organized separately in every Latin Class. Our class presidents are Alyne Key, Alfred Evans, Judge Gambill, Verna Cox and Jewell Copp; and Miss Wisdom supervises our work and activities. These consist of a meeting every two weeks, in which we study appropriate subjects connected closely with our regular I-atin Work, and play amusing Latin games. Our Club is both interesting and beneficial; and we. the Latin students, are justly proud of it. “I can not learn the sequences. Of my enemies, the tenses: There’s no use for pretenses, They are out of their senses! “Marie, name the figure of speech!’' Is a familiar sound to my ears. But I know them not each from each. And do not expect to for years.” YE LATIN “All have died who wrot it; All have died who spoke it: All will die who learn it; Blessed death, they earn it ! 101 1 02 SENIOR DAY A half day of Friday, the 22nd of December was set aside for “Senior Day.” The basement was covered with booths representing the various Classes. Different (foodies were sold, and every one enjoyed the occasion. FOOTBALL BOYS ENTERTAINED Letter men of the 1921 football team were entertained with a Party at the home of Laura Dean and Richard Wisdom at Jlfi Center St. About forty guests were present. “Bunco” was the main feature of entertaining throughout the evening. About ten-thirty dainty refreshments of Ice Cream and Cake were served to the boys and their friends. SENIOR PICNIC The first Social affair enjoyed by Seniors, was a Picnic at Club Lake. Several private cars and a truck carried the young people to the Lake. Boat riding and several amusing games were enjoyed, and all reported a good time. A NEGRO MINSTREL Smokeville Social, a minstrel was presented by a number of High School Boys on Wednesday Night, February the 1st at the High School. The minstrel was directed by Miss Catherine Wisdom and Ben Pierce, two of the faculty members. Smokeville Social proved a great success; and enough money was realized to pay for the sweaters presented to the boys on the first team of football. Several of the Sweater men took part in the Minstrel to help pay for their sweaters. Music was furnished by John G. Varner and Forrest Ford. 104 BRONCO STAFF PLAYS “THE SOPHOMORE” The Bronco Staff presented a comedy drama “The Sophomore” and a one act Comedy “Neighbors” at High School Auditorium on Saturday Night, March the third. The plays were coached by Miss Nora Lee Brown, and Miss Mary Mizell, faculty members, who are at head of the Annual this year. 'I he plays proved a great success, and money was used for publication of the Bronco. The one act Comedy was given later at the Merchants’ Exhibit, and furnished much amusement. Both the “Sophomore” and “Neighbors” was given in Lewisville High School on the Night of March the tenth. The cast of characters in the “Sophomore” are: Prof. Alden—Professor at Denver College.................Charles Wilkins Hope—his daughter..............................................Arne Bass Smith Bud Kennedy—Football Star............................................Roy Ratliff Bob Stewart—Idol of Hope........................................... lvin Kelsay Coach Livingston.....................................................Joe Barnhill Iteddie Sims— I college student..................................Clayton Ilendrix Owl (Iriggs—Book Worm..........................................Roy Rice Buster Brown.......................................................James Knox Aunt Mary Scott—A great preacher of reforms.................Marie Fowler Violet—The maid..................................................Dorothy Speer Matilda Dwiggins—A believer in home remedies...............Maggie Davie Hick Bannister—College tease.......................................Brice Pettie The cast of characters in “Neighbors” were: Ezra Williams—A Typical Country Man......

Many had to pay debts and, every one took a great interest in the work. A great good can be realized from Good English Weeks, for it causes the students to be careful about their English; and not so many vulgar and slang words are used. L—8 CLASS PARTY Miss Evelyn Matthews was hostess at a Low Eight Class Party given at her home November 8th. She was assisted by her cousin, Miss Ruth Cowden. Various games were played, and several interesting contests pleased the young pople in which Susie Tate won prize. At ten-thirty dainty refreshments were served to about forty-six guests. L—10 CLASS PARTY Low Tens were entertained at Miss Minta Angel’s home on Bernard Street. Various games were enjoyed; and about fifteen members were present. BALL GAME IN GAINESVILLE Two trucks and several cars accompanied the football team to Gainesville October 28th. The trucks and cars were crowded, and left here about ten-thirty in the morning, and arrived in Gainesville about noon. All students who went seemed to have a jolly time, and we all went to the ball park early. Alice Wheelock, Pearl West, and Grady Fralin acted as yell leaders; and after an interesting game in which Denton won with the score fourteen to nothing, the students returned, arriving about seven-thirty Friday night. loe 107 THE NOTE AND THE CLOCK (Apologies to Longfellow) I shot a note into the air, It fell to the floor, 1 knew not where; Then to ray desk Miss Aikin fame, I thought I had seen my last day. I breathed a prayer into the air, It fell to the floor, I knew not where; Then to my desk Miss Aikin came, 1 turned, and dropped my head in shame. Not long since in room twenty-four I remained in with several more; But our teacher was not there.— Of course we did not care! The clock ticked on five minutes or more, And we ran it up to twenty-four; But our hearts soon gave a flop, Because the clock real soon did stop. But not long did we thrive ’Cause they let us go at exactly five. Never had we given it a thought, But along with her a watch she brought! —Roy Ratliff H.ll. TO THE BRONCO STAFF Oh, we salute you, Bronco Staf You’ve done your best we know. We thank you for the work you’ve done On this our loved Bronco. Your work was not in vain, oh Staff!

On a bright, calm summer day, lie packed his clothes and went away From home, to take a trip afar: So he gathered his ships and to Mar. They had long been at sea and all did fear, Except Columbus, who thought that land was surely near; So that night, when all was quiet and still. A fire was seen on a distant hill. All were cheered up, both old and young, When the Spanish National Anthem was sung. So kind was Christopher and all his band, To discover for us this wonderful land. Old Christopher predicted that very night, That in ages to come, we children might Have to work hard, to learn of the deed That he accomplished, and was of much need. Much do we owe to him, who discovered this land, The rocks, the hills, the rivers, and the sand! Combine them all. their is nothing that it lacks, Above them all floats the Stars and Stripes. To Columbus we all show much respect, Because ’(was thru his intellect, That today in this great land of ours We receive peaceful tidings after the gloomy showers. And as on through life we go, To him we all try to show, That we are very grateful, indeed, Because the Spanish language we did need. We trace it from beginning to present day, And in a most delightful and peculiar way, We learn the meaning of yo no se. 1 will show you como y porque. The language so pretty and melodious, Mil gracias, senor, for bringing it to us! We are thankful as every one knows. So I’ll leave you with an Hasta Manana, y un Adios —Roy Ratliff—Sr. 1 1 10 BILL’S CORN CROP As Hill sat on tho old rail fence, Viewing his poor crop of corn, A passer-by stopped to talk with him. For he knew Bill felt very forlorn. Now the crop of corn was not so good. There’s no reason for us to doubt it. But Bill was like almost everyone else— He didn’t like to be told about it! “Not very big com for the time of year” (Turning field-ward a critical eye). “No, I alius plant the little kind, here”, Said old Bill with a little sigh. “But isn’t it kind of yellow. For the season we have had”? “Well, considering I planted the yaller kind. Hit don’t look so allfired bad.” “Why you won’t get over half a crop’ , Said the man with a puzzled stare. Said Bill”, “That’s hit exactly— I planted it on the shares.” —Archie Evans 111 A GIRL SCOUT OUTING On the evening before last Armistice clay, the Girl Scouts of Troop 2, met at an appointed place with provisions for a two day’s outing. We sere in high spirits and eager to be up and away to try our “luck and pluck” at scouting. The trucks which we had hired to take us. as it was about fourteen miles to the place and we wished to get there that night were ready and we quickly piled our baggage and ourselves in, ready for the trip. The road was exceedingly rough, but we had a safe driver. We got to our destination af cr turning out of our way, and making inquiries a few times. Four of our number had gone earlier in the afternoon, and when we were almost to the shack, they saluted us with whoops and yells, and soon we were inside the little hut whose bare walls glowed from the fire built by our chums in a little wood stove. We were pretty tired after our ride, but we were hungry also, so after feeding the driver and sending him on his way rejocing. we cooked our own supper separately on a fire made outside the house. My! but our bacon, onions, and cold bread tasted scrum ptious. That night we spread our blankets; then after many stories around the fire were told we were soon ready to “turn in”. Next mornin-. Friday, bright and early our bugler played the Reviele and we crawled out of our blankets. Preparing our breakfast, we were soon ready to spend the day in the way our Captain and Lieutenant saw fit. Our shack was near a pecan grove, and several goats wandered around and several of us tried our horsemanship or rather “goatmanship”. After hiking to a place where we found swings, barnes to slide down, and a wind mill to climb, we marched back to camp where at the appointed time we stood a! attention and faced the East, remembering the boys who gave their lives in order that we might be free, and silently offered our prayers and thanks to our Heavenly Father for all His goodness. As we were hungry after our morning experiences, we prepared our lunches and ate almost as ravenously as wolves. In the afternoon wc w’ent on a pecan hunting expedition, and each of us got our pockets full. We had company in the early evening, a neighboring farmer and family paid us a friendly call, and we all sat around the camp fire and toasted our toes and marshmallows. Then we were given the signal by our Lieutenant to “fall in” and entertain our visitors by various stunts. After the hours for sentry or guard duty were determined, all of us rolled in to our blankets until our time for duty should come. Next morning, after being aroused early by the much despised revelie, we prepared our breakfast and rolled up our blankets in preparation for leaving. The truck soon arrived, and after thanking our host, the Grandfather of one of our scouts. Tor his hospitality, we were off again; but this time homeward bound. Although we were eager to see civilization, and beds with sure enough springs, we arc every time just as eager and even more so, to go again, and live work and play with nature. —Verna C(sx. 1 1 1 2 THE HOUSE ACROSS THE STREET (A MODERN POE—ESS.) V had often wondered what was in the house across the street. It was quite a large house farther from the street than the houses around it. We had decided that it was uninhabited, as we had seen no one entering, or leaving it. In front of it were two large trees, now leafless, for it was December. The house had long, narrow windows with curtains so heavy, that they caused one to wonder if the light and the air could penetrate them. One night, just after dark, several of us were passing the house, which seemed as gloomy and deserted as ever. Suddenly, we heard the awfullest and the shrillest shriek that I have ever heard, before or since. It sounded like a woman’s voice, and was loud and long drawn out. It undoubtedly came from the mysterious house, we decided at once. We tried to open the door, but it was too heavy. Finally, after what seemed hours, the door gave way by our combined efforts. We entered. First, we came to a narrow hall, very dimly lighted; cobwebs were all over the walls and ceiling. I have a general impression of filth, but that is all I remember, as we passed quickly to the room from whence we thought the shriek came. We went to the room at the left, but soon we decided that it was not the room from which we heard the shriek, for there was no human person in the room, and that shriew surely must have been made by a human in terrible agony—agony too terrible to enable him to escape from the room where he then was—besides, everything there was still as death. The walls of this chamber were dark. It was as dimly lighted as the hall. There was a great fireplace, above which hung the picture, of a stern old man. The picture made me uncomfortable, for the man’s eyes stared directly at me. and he seemed to be alive. Quickly I moved to another part of the room to escape that gaze, but the eyes it seemed still stared at me. 1 1 1 3 °(i e lc£l£LBPon TIIK HOUSE ACROSS THE STREET- Continued 1 wanted to get away from those terrible eyes, but I eould not find any other door in the room, exeept the one which led back into the hall. Something told me to look behind a curtain in this room. It was dark green velvet, giving one a feeling of luxury and wealth.—yet one of gloom and depression. As I lifted it up, we saw a door behind it which had been completely concealed. With one more look at those haunting eyes, which still gazed at me steadily. I opened the door and entered the next room, while my companions all followed me. What 1 saw there caused me to scream. I remember that the others looked in. The horror that filled me, caused me to close my eyes. I do not know what happened then, but when, after what seemed a long time, I opened them. I was outside that terrible house. 1 hope never to enter it again! —Marie Konovah—II. 10 1 1 4 THE PASSING OF THE OLD WEST In olden days our story runs, The west was wild and woolly. The men carved notches on their guns, And said their aim was bully. The wily redskin circled ’round With whoops that chilled their marrows; He’d caper up with lithesome bound, And shoot them full of arrows! Times changed. No longer bad men meet Beside the village fountain ; Their aim is bad; they’ve got cold feet; They couldn’t hit a mountain! No longer trot the nimble broncos Beside the purling river. The welkin now resounds with honks, And Bill Hart drives a fliver! DAWN Suddenly from out the mist, There arose the resplendent dawn; Her rose tinted garments Swept like breezes across the morn. Her bejeweled hair, like misty clouds Hung low upon her brow so fair; And her breath pure and sweet She breathed into the morning air. She kissed the trees and mountain tops, And swept across the plain; She crossed the deserts and the sea. Then passed from sight again. —Ruby Ernst—II. 10 1 1 1 6 THE MAN AT TIIE WINDOW I was visiting in Rush Springs, Oklahoma, in the year 1908. Rush Springs was then in the Indian Territory, and criminals from all the surrounding states came to this place to escape justice. The territory had no organized government; therefore the people governed themselves. The Citizens were murdered, robbed, and kidnapped in some horrible way every day. My younger sister and I were visiting a lady Physician. One warm sultry night, she was called to the bedside of a wounded man. leaving us in the house by ourselves. We were frightened for the first few minutes, but we decided to be calm and go to bed. The house was locked securely. We undressed very quietly, trembling at every sound. The night was lonesome and still. Far a long time we could not sleep, and when I closed my eyes, I could imagine all kinds of horrible things happening to us Finally, at a late hour, we both fell asleep. It seemed I had only fallen asleep when I was awakened by a noise. Instantly I sat up in bed. The noise was rapidly growing nearer, and I distinguished it to be a man running on the pavement. I was so frightened I could not control my voice. At the first possible moment I called my sister; she was awake at once. I had only to tell her to listen to stay her flow of questions. All the time the steps were coming nearer. While we were sitting motionless, the front gate opened with a click! The moment it closed I was out of bed. I was so thoroughly frightened by this time I knew not what to do. I knew the house was locked the best that it could be; I could only wait to see what was going to happen. The steps came on around the house toward our room. The man, for I supposed it was a man, came to the window and began tearing at the screen, f did not know what to do: My sister grabbed me by the hand and tried to pull me out of the room. It seemed as if some irresistible force held me to the spot where I stood. After a few minutes, 1 went to the window and pulling aside the curtain, I saw the wildest looking man I ever saw in my life. He glared at me and began to speak. He was speaking so rapidly at first I could not understand him; finally I made out these words: “For God’s sake let me in ! They are coming. Oh for God’s sake let mein!” As he finished speaking, I heard the steps of running men. The man at the window heard them also, for he began tearing at the screen with a greater force. It seemed for a few minutes that he would enter; but just as he was in the act of climbing in the window, the men came around the house and carried him off. As they pulled him from the window, I fell exhausted into a chair. I felt that I could never again go to sleep in such a place. Finis. 1 16 —Lillian Cole—II. 10 LIFE—OR “THE WAY OF MAN” In the great city, world, there lived a reckless youth whose name was man. His most intimate friends were Money and Wine, and of the two, he probably loved Money the better. Happiness a beautiful young woman, also lived in this city. Her three companions were Faith, Hope, and Charity. Happiness was fond of Man, and sought never ceasingly to befriend him, but to no avail. Man did not even know of her existence for he believed Money to be the real happiness—in truth Money wore the guise of Happiness in order that he might ensnare the youth. Man had a beautiful twin sister whose name was Honor. He neglected her shamefully and did not realize her worth. He was blind in his folly, to all that was good and pure. One night, Man attended a great ball, at which Wine was the chief center of attraction. The merry makers held high revel until morning, at which time they departed for their homes. As Man neared his domicle, he saw Death, robed in black, enter the house, and when Man went into his home, he found Honor dead. After her death, he wandered about through strange parts of the City, Man met many of the members of the family of Evil Voices, and some of them became his companions. During his wanderings, Man became more attached than ever to his friend, Money who granted him his every desire. Man had one fear, and that was Death. Many times Money tried to console Man, but when Death appeared, he became afraid and gave way to trembling and dread. All this while, Happiness had kept within her home. How she longed to save Man. “She loved him more each day, and she prayed that his eyes would be open to her love, return from his wandering, and try in part, to redress the wrongs he had committed upon poor Honor. Happiness frequently held long consultations with her friend, Truth, who believed he could distinguish for Man the right from the wrong. For long years, Man lived in the house of Sin who was a great merchant in the City, World. He was hiding from his enemies, Truth and Death. Truth could be kept out from the abode of Sin, but Death he could not evade. Money and Wine were still with him. 1 17 LIFE—OR “THE WAV OF MAN’’—Continued Then one night Wine proved treacherous to Man, and secretly ushered in Illness, a serpent, which immediately buried its fangs into the flesh of him whom Happiness loved. All night Man lay in the Chamber of the house of Sin, suffering greatly. Death was present and Man sought to keep him from out of his sight. He begged Money to send him away, hut Money would not. He sought comfort from Wine, hut to no avail. Thinking perhaps the Merchant, in whose house he was, would help him, Man called his host to him, hut Sin only scorned him and mocked at his suffering. Those whom he once called friends were false. They had deserted Him in his affliction. In sorrow, but in more disgust, he awoke and departed from the house. Man's purpose was to find Truth. All night he searched with Death just before him. At last, when he could walk no more, Man sank, exhausted, to the ground. Death slowly approached. Oh Truth! Come to Man ! save him! Closer came Death, and then came Hope. She drove the black figure farther away, and sent for Truth. When Truth came, he told Man of the love Happiness had for him. and that she had prayed for his coming to her. As he talked, the scales fell from Man’s eves and he saw all things clearly. He no longer feared Death; and he hated those he once loved, and now loved those he once hated. He arose with the assistance of Hope and Truth and went unto Happiness who welcomed him with open arms. At last, Man found Happiness, and he loved her dearly.
