The silent night was interrupted only by the howl of the wolf, the melancholy moan of the owl or the shriek of the frightful panther. The day was possibly even more solitary than the night. The noise of the wild turkey, th ' croaking of the raven or the tapping of the woodpecker did not enliven the dreary scene. The Indians were the only human inhabitants: four tribes predominating within the limits of what is now known as the commonwealth of Ohio; namely-the Wyandottes, Delawares, Shawnees and Ottawas. The Wyandotes dwelled along the Sandusky and Miami rivers, the Delawares occupied the valleys of the Muskingum and Tuscaraws. The Shawnees lived in the region drained by the Scioto and Maumee rivers, and the Ottawas in the regions near the head waters of the Sandusky and Maumee rivers. The Ohio Indians were rather sojourners here than permanent inhabitants. Their chief occupation was hunting and fishing and was temporary in character. Their tribal nations were with the six nations of the Iroquois. All the tribes had practically the same tribal government though they differed in many details. In their social organizations generally there were four groups—the family, the gens, the tribe, and the phratry. The family was the household and comprised persons who occupied one lodge or wigwam. The gens were composed of kindred of the same blood in the female line. A tribe was a body of kindred and to be a member it was necessary to belong to some family. The phratry pertained to medical and religious rites and observances. The sachem of the tribe was chosen by the chiefs of the gentes, and presided at their grand councils in which the head of each household and all the leading men of the tribe took part. The wife or squaw had her separate property which consisted of everything in the wigwam except the implements of war and the chase. Each gens had a right to the services of all the available male members of the tribe in avenging wrongs committed against them and in supplying game. The chief crops cultivated and gathered from the forest consisted of corn, beans, peas, potatoes, nuts and berries. Their great annual occasion was the green corn festival. At this festival they feasted themselves with plenty and also made offerings and did homage to the great Spirit for his blessings. They also named their children that were born in that year. Indian names were always significant and indicated the totemic clan to which persons bearing the name belonged. None of the Indians had a written language but they had a name for everything they could see, hear, or feel. They conveyed their thoughts by symbols painted on prepared skins from the inner bark of the white-birch. The Tuscarawas valley was indeed an ideal possession for the Indian. It abounded in everything that made their hunting grounds attractive. The plains were sparsely timbered but in places the oak and hickory grew. The river valeys were wilder and contained a more luxurious growth. Paye six DOU€R 1926 cRimon - grg y When the Indians first occupied the Ohio Valley they may have travelled only on rivers and lakes. When they turned inland we can be reasonably sure that they found the ready made and deeply worn routes which for years before the coming of the Indian, were used by the mound builders and originally made by the mastodon. The famous Muskingum trail entered the northeastern part of Tuscarawas county, crossed the great trail leading from Fort Pitt to Detroit at the place where the Big Sandy now enters the Tuscarawas, descended on the west side of the river, crossed Sugar Creek near the present site of Dover, crossed Stone Creek at its mouth and followed Frye’s Creek to the present site of Port Washington, thence turned westward on the hills toward Chili in Coshocton county. From this old time highway, near the present village of Bolivar, is seen the rise of ground which marks the site of Fort Laurens. Farther down the river at Goshen lies the dust of the heroic Zeisberger. From this trail could also be seen the quiet hamlet of Schoenbrunn, famous for its chronicles of heroism and suffering, and the now historic Gnaden-hutten. The Indian occupation of the Ohio Valley being more temporary in character than permanent, as before stated, there were in consequence but few Indian villages within the present limits of Tuscarawas county. The ancient Senaca capital, Tuscarawas, located near the site of the present village of Bolivar, at the time of Heckewelder’s visit there in 1762, was inhabited by Delawares, and seems to have been built long before the coming of the white man. Further down the river were Beavertown, about eight miles north of Dover, the Ottawa capitol, an old town below the mouth of Sugar Creek, Three Legstown, at the mouth of Stillwater, King Beaver’s hamlet, near the present Gnadenhutten, Gehelemukpechuk Delaware capitol fifteen miles south of the “Big Spring,” King Newscom-erstown, at the site of the present town of that name, Old Wyandot town. White Eyes’ hamlet, Custaloga’s town and White Woman’s town, making twelve in all, and each in its day the scene of Indian glory or captive’s suffering. Of Christian towns there were Schoenbrunn, old and new, Gnadenhutten, Lichtenau, Salem, and Post’s Mission House, each in its day the scene of Christian suffering and heathen persecution. U ii=. —THE MORAVIAN MISSIONS— The advent of the Moravian Missionaries into the Tuscarawas Valley is an era in pioneer history. The devotion of these missionaries to the cause in which they risked their lives, the persistency with which they clung to it through dangers and privations, their zeal and perse-verence in their unselfish efforts to evangelize the Indians of the valley and their steadfast friendship for the American colonists, will forever stamp them as among the noblest benefactors of the human race. The pioneer missionary in Ohio was Rev. Christian Frederick Post. In 1762, in company with John Heckewelder, then about nineteen years of age, he left Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and came to the headwaters of the Tuscarawas, where he had built himself a small cabin on the banks of the river above the present site of Bolivar. Late in the summer of 1762, Post accompanied by Shingash, the greatest Delaware warrior of his time, went to Lancaster to attend an Page seven DOl CP . 199,6 CRinSOD GR6Y Indian conference. Some time later, Heckewelder, who had been left in icharge of Post’s affairs, returned to Pennsylvania to await events. The indefatigable Zeisberger, about the year 1771, visited the Shawnee village. He was occompanied by the converted Delaware Chief, Glikkikan. Their first destination was Watameke, where they were very hospitably received by a Shawnee Indian whose father had been an acquaintance of Zeisberger in 1755, in the Wyoming Valley of Pennsylvania. Here the party was entertained by a heathen teacher of great influence, who assembled the Indians, and gave Zeisberger an opportunity to address them. The exhortation, which is probably the first Moravian sermon preached in Ohio, made a profound impression upon the Indians. In the Spring of 1772, Zeisberger and Heckewelder, accompanied by five Indian families, numbering twenty-eight persons visited the valley of the Muskingum, (Tuscarawas) in what is now Tuscarawas county. They founded the village of Schoenbrunn, located about two miles southeast of the present city of New Philadelphia. A chapel was built forty by thirty-six feet, of squared timber, roofed by shingles and surmounted by a cupola and bell. The village was laid out in a neat and orderly manner, which excited the astonishment of its savage visitors. It contained a spring which remains to this day, a spot of historic interest. In April 1776, Zeisberger and Heckewelder founded Lichtenau. The year 1777, when the Shawnees joined the Indians of the lakes against the Americans, brought severe trials to the Moravian Colony. Forced by a war party of Muncie Indians, Zeisberger abandoned Schoenbrunn—thus increasing the population of Gnadenhutten and Lichtenau. Because of numerous attacks by a band of Indians composed of Hurons, Iriquois, Ottawas, Chippewas, Shawnees, Wampanos and Potawautakas, and lead by Half King, Gnadenhutten, in April, 1778, was also abandoned, and the whole community concentrated at Lichtenau. Some time in this year (1778), perhaps in the early fall, occurred (he great ride of Heckewelder, rivaling that of Paul Revere, and in intensity, danger, sacrifice and results, one of the most remarkable episodes of border history. Rumor had it that Washington had been killed and his army coming westward to kill all the Indians,—who had in reality captured Burgoyne’s British army,—was the cause for which Heckewelder made his famous ride that saved the settlement of Lichtenau from destruction by the Indians. With peace once more restored in the Muskingum Valley, the missionaries began renewing their efforts in making settlements. Accordingly, Gnadenhutten was reoccupied; Schoenbrunn rebuilt on the west side of the river and Lichtenau, on the 30th day of March, 1780, abandoned, and a new settlement, called Salem, established about five miles southwest of Gnadenhutten. The Indian chiefs, who advocated peace, gradually gave way to those in favor of war and finally, after a few years the settlement of Salem was threatened with destruction, but fortunately the situation did not become serious until the trouble arose which led to the massacre of the Christian Indians at Gnadenhutten. These Indians were charged as public enemies who had violated the rules of war and forfeited all their right to protection. The prisoners plead their unhappy position between the lines; their long and constant friendship for the Americans which was known Page eight DOI CR mG CRimOn-CRGY by all men; the many timely warnings they had given by which the Americans had averted much suffering; and finally that they were believers in the same faith and followers of the same Savior as were their white brethren. It was all in vain. Although every word of their plea was true it was all rejected—but not by all. When the time came for a verdict to be reached, Williamson said, “Shall the Moravian Indians be taken prisoners to Pittsburg or put to death? All those in favor of sparing their lives advance one step and form a second rank.” Eighteen men took one step, but the majority decided to mash their heads and take their scalps and have something to show for their trouble. The wailing woe of women, the shrinking shriek of girls, the piercing cry of children, the shivering sobs of boyhood and the gulping groan of men formed a chorus that will haunt the scene as long as the North Wind shall search the groves of Gnadenhutten. But soon they remem-oered they were children of the Father who had chosen this way to call them home, and their composure returned. They protested an innocence of which no intelligence worthy of respect now dares to presume a doubt. They asked for time to array their souls for Heaven, and the killing was set for the early morning. The night was passed away in tears. But those were such as washed their lives of sin and made them white as snow. No messages were sent to distant friends—there was no one to carry a farewell. No disposition was made of earthly possessions—everything was engulfed in overwhelming ruin. All night long, six faithful preachers restricted to the prison, prayed with their brethren who comforted each other with songs of praise that grew into hymns of triumph as the dawn drew near. The hours that made what some would call their night of gloom afford one of the brightest examples of faith that time has given. Those brown people of the forest prepared for death as the famous martyrs did. To deny their sincerity is to dispute the power of Christ’s religion. And thus passed the evening and morning of the last day, of which the light broke on a prayer that was interrupted by the questtion if they were ready. On answering that their peace was made, two places were designated as the “Slaughter Houses.” Zeisberger and Heckewelder wrote accounts of the massacre that differ in detail but agree in conclusions. From Heckewelder it would appear that the executioners entered the prisons and struck the victims on the head with a cooper’s mallet—the first one killing fourteen in this way before he stopped to say he had done pretty well but his arm was giving out. Zeisberger tells that they were lead out one at a time. But from a comparison of various accounts it seems that the men women and children were led out, bound in couples with ropes, into the slaughter houses where they were murdered and scalped. The slaughter of these Christian Moravian Indians of more than a hundred souls, of whom much the larger numbers were women and children, whose only crime was unspotted innocence, whose greatest earthly misfortune was the adoption of a worship that taught charity to all and malice toward none and whose greatest mistake was confidence in their own selves as a defense against greed, stands out as one of the bloodiest massacres in the annals of history.

Jayne Weible Page thirty-two DOI €R 19£6 cRimon - GReY SENIOR CLASS HISTORY It will not be long until the Class of ’26 crosses the threshold of its High School career, and Dover High becomes a memory. In 1922, our class entered the back door quietly, and timidly, as Freshmen should. But though we tried to hide our “greenness”, and unobtrusively into the routine of High School life, we had to undergo many taunts and suffer great ridicule. We soon elected officers to guide our wandering steps and care for the “important” business of the class. These first officers were Fred Walters, president; Edna Horn, vice-president: Berniece Spahr, secretary: Curtis Kaltenbaugh, treasurer: and Jayne Weible, historian. Our class when Freshmen, found that we had a long way ahead of us before we could leave the front door as Seniors. So all through our first year, in our social events, athletics, and all, we had to be very careful not to get lost in the labyrinth of secret passages and treacherous short-cuts. Most of us succeeded in struggling to the door at Sophomorage, but our president being among those lost, we found a new election necessary. Thus it was that in September, 1923, we elected Fred Dresher, president; and Margaret Wentz, treasurer. The class historian and secretary were re-elected. Having overcome our Freshman backwardness, we took an active part this year in social and athletic affairs. We held a marshmallow toast at Sugar Creek Falls, and gave two charming dances which were well attended by the whole High School. So we passed through another year’s joys and sorrows and approached the third room in our House of Learning. At this time we took a census and found to our consternation that only eighty-one out of our original number of one hundred thirty-six had escaped the trials of the first two years. There was another change of officers; Kenneth Rice vice-president; Margaret Wentz, secretary; Josephine Jentes, treasurer; Fred Dresher and Jayne Weible were re-elected president and historian. Of course the biggest social event of the Juniors’ year is the Prom. It is needless to say that the Prom we gave was the best ever. Our class was well represented in the Hi-Y Club, Girl Reserves, and athletics also in the third year. September 1925, brought us back to school very different from the fall of 1922. Now we are old and tried members of Dover High and have entered the last lap of our journey. We have become entangled in the fangs of U. S. History and the other “monsters”. We are busy with the many interests and plans of Seniors every year. We held another election and our Senior officers are: Arthur Alpeter, president; Howard Maurer, vice-president; Margaret Wentz, secretary; Dorothy Harrison, treasurer; and Jayne Weible, historian. We also elected an efficient annual staff. Art Alpeter being chosen Editor-in-Chief, and “Red” Maurer, business manager, with an able staff to assist them. Thus we are nearing the threshold which we will cross Graduation Night. Some are merely glad, but there are many who look back to the past four years with a feeiing of regret that we have to leave it all. We have tried to uphold the standards of our school while learning our lessons in class, and hope that when we leave to learn the lessons of life that our memory will be held dear to those behind us. Jayne Weible—’26 ft Page thirty-three DOl CR 1996 CRjnSOn GR€Y THE RESULTS OF ’26 It was Commencement night. The class of ’26 was together for probably the last time. After tonight, each would go his own way, and within a few years all would be scattered far and wide. Thinking of this, I became possessed with a strong desire to see what the years would bring, without waiting for time to take its natural course. Accordingly, as soon as possible I left the auditorium. I started my Flivver and soon arrived at a small, ramshackle house near the city limits. I knocked at the door and was admitted into a dark, gloomy hallway. A wierd and solemn voice bade me enter the room at the rear. Upon opening the door, it seemed as though the room before me was indeed a witch’s den for it was lighted and furnished most grotesquely. I approached the table behind which sat the Lady of the Sixth Sense. “Madam,” I said, “I want you to tell me what the future holds for my classmates of Dover High.” “Pray be seated, “She answered, “and I shall consult my crystal globe.” She then proceeded to wave her hands and muttered in ceaseless rhythm, over a large, round globe on the table. “Ah,” she said, “The first one of your friends I see, is one who holds an important place among you. His initials, A. A., show me that he will always be a leader among men. Now I see him, a director in a large and well known banking establishment. He is holding money, money, money. Now that vision fades and I see him in his home, which is in one of the best residential sections of Dover. His house is a beautiful mansion and I see that it is well managed by a lady who was a Dover High graduate in ’27. As the fortune teller paused, I quickly stored in my mind what I had just heard so that I could tell our Class President, Arthur Alpeter, what was before him. “Now comes a vision of a lovely young woman,” continued the fortune teller. “She seems to be very successful in motion picture work. She was known in High School as Mary Jahnke; her stage name is Glorian—a Swan.” “Ah, this vision is a regular whirlwind. The manner in which this girl flits from one place to another makes it difficult to see what she truly is doing. Now she’s at a dance, now at a fashionable club, and now at a party in an exclusive Massachusetts Avenue home. There; I can see her plainly now. She is tall, and has auburn hair and a merry glance. She is Senator Deis’ daughter and is a popular Washington society girl.” “The next vision is quite a contrast to the last. I see a small white house on a quiet street of Dover. Here lies one who did not accept any of her many offers of marriage. She is very happy, living peacefully with her parrots and cats. One of her chief pleasures is gossiping, and the neighbors go to visit Miss Wassem whenever they feel in need of news.” Payc thirty-four DOU€R mG CRiroon - GRGY “Right next door to her cottage is a new home which was built by Dover’s postmaster, Mr. Waring, for his bride, formerly Miss Francis Mizer. Mr. Waring is an influential citizen and makes speeches for many business men’s banquets.” “The crystal now shows me a complete change of setting. I see a big white building. Oh, it is a hospital,—now one of the nurses is coming toward me,—she is so sweet and kind looking. A doctor is giving her orders. He calls her “Miss Wagner.” It seems that she has a very good position in this big hospital for she is working under a doctor who has grown famous from perfecting a cure for lovesickness. He is the worthy Doctor R. R. Finley, H. H. (Heart-healer.) There appears a ward in the same hospital. The patient who I see seems to be getting well under the care of Dr. Finley and Miss Wagner. Indeed, the three seem to be quite old friends. I shall concentrate and perhaps I can tell you all about it.” The magic lady truly seemed to be under an invisible power as she muttered low and caressed her treasured globe. “Now,—now! This man is a prominent boxer, famous the world over for his pugilistic success. However, it seems that his skill ends at home for when he came in late last night his wife, Mrs. Lohrman, (formerly Miss Emma Richard) dislocated his jaw, and he was in dire need of a good nurse and doctor.” “The globe shows me a beautiful country home, surrounded by acres of fertile fields and numberless groves and ravines. This is the estate of Howard Ehlers, one of the most successful agriculturists in Ohio. He has just issued a new text book on that subject, which is being adopted in Dover High School. “On one corner of this farm, at the brow of a stately hill, is seen a rustic looking house. The door opens and a dignified lady steps out on the porch where her companion is busy with palette and brush. These two have obtained this quiet retreat for study from their old classmate, Mr. Ehlers. He was glad to accommodate them because ever since High School days he has thought Miss Graef, now a noted authoress, and Miss Schneider, a landscape painter, two ideal friends.” “I see a large brick building. It is a High School in a thriving city. The principal is a very efficient looking woman who never has enough to do. This rare executive is Mrs. Mabel Bergquist Hollinger. She was well-trained in the art of management by her complete control over her husband, Dale. Poor man, I see that he has just reached the height of success as a civil engineer when his company broke up leaving him destitute. However, his wife readily began to help him, and they will soon be as successful as ever. ? “Mrs Hollinger has as two of her teachers, Miss Sammons and Miss Wiegand. These valuable educators never get out of patience, remarkable! “Next appears a college campus. In the administration building I see a sign, “Dean of Women—Miss Isabel Haley.” One glance into her office shows how busy she is. She is talking with two of the instructors; Miss Lillian Hudson, professor of history, and Miss Marguerite Roth, assistant instructor of archeology. This college is fortunate in having as its historical research workers, Fletcher Douthitt, who makes DOI £R 19a6 Page thirty-five « vv CRIO SOn GR6Y a ‘‘hit” with the mummies and sphinx. The college librarian is Miss Stout, who is loved by all the students.” “The images of my globe are now becoming faint. Suppose I try some live coals.” Thereupon I was led to the rear of the room where some red coals lay in the fireplace. I could see no more, but the mystic power of my hostess immediately foretold the following: “From the time Josephine Jentes is thirty until her death, she is going to live the life of a solitary spinster. She shall have a bounteous income as she has charge of the “Lonesome Heart’s Column” of a city daily. She often gives a thankful sigh for her spinsterhood after visiting the home of her old friend. Margaret Wentz. “Peg” followed in the footsteps of Art and found HIM (just a slip) a beautiful, if somewhat difficult occupation.” “The coals glow. They show a big theatre. The footlights shine brightly, and the spotlight searches the leading lady of a popular musical comedy. This star is known as Mile. Louise Bigler. Her manager is the famous John Lindberg who is a competent “Follies” producer. His last production featured Miss Helene de Reisse, who became noted for her beauty and dancing.” “There! I see the “white tops”. In the big tent there appears a marvelous trapeze performer. Her stunts are original and difficult. She claims to have practiced these since High School days, and indeed, Miss Leiser is an artist! “I now see a packed audience in New York. It is listening to the Opera “Carmen’' in which Mile. Jayne Weible has a leading role.” The coals are dying. It will be necessary to consult my Magic Sands.” “We walked to a table which was covered with sand five or six inches deep. To my wonder the sand shifted and the fortune teller continued her long task. “The sands tell me that two of your class-mates will not leave Dover. Lillian Clemens is seen teaching French in Roosevelt High, and Gertrude Reiss is making a large sum of money in the position of buyer for the ready-made department of L. H. Quick Company’s new store.” “A vision of ‘The Kenneth Brown Surveying Company’ of Canton rises out of the sand. The owner has prospered, and I see him spending his vacation at Atlantic City where he lives in a luxuriant mansion built by Howard Mason who has lived up to his name and become a master brick-mason.” “There is a great shifting of the sand again for I see the interior of the African jungle. A missionary’s post appears, and I recognize the devout worker as Rev. Tom Taylor. He has married Dorothy Huffman who helps him by teaching the heathen to sing the Hymns. Mrs Taylor tells her pupils that she received her training in the D. H. S. Glee Club and advises them to go there for their vocal education. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor appears to have a visitor. They greet him as Walter. I believe he is the successful Mr. Polen who hunts in Africa for wild animals for the Dover Zoo. Page thirty-six DOI €R mo cRimon - GReY Mr. Polen is telling his old friends that on the way to Africa he stopped at the Philippines and was entertained at the Governor’s home. ( Governor Pretorius is making great improvements on the Islands and has persuaded her old rival, Berniece Spahr, to come to this enchanting land to study the native dances and set them to music so that the people in the States may enjoy them. Since Berniece has secured a divorce from her husband, she has left Dover and has gone back to the stage under her maiden name. • That scene fades, and the sands form a picture or a gay studio in Paris. Here the American artists, Eugene Schott, is studying French art. At the present time I see him talking with James McBride who is visiting him for a month. Mr. McBride has learned all to be known about music in America and has gone to Italy to study. He intends to return to Boston and play in the Boston Symphony orchestra whose director, Senor Walter Zimmerman, has raised this orchestra to rank among the world’s greatest. Among your classmates I see that four more of the girls have married. I see Mildred Archinal is the wife of a Florida real estate man, and wears diamonds on every finger. She is very fortunate in having Olive Torp as private tutor for her children. I see that the Torp sisters cannot stand to be separated even now so Minnie has a good position as social secretary for Mildred. I believe that I see the home of Idabel Horn who has married a business man from the city of New Philadelphia. Idabel is a proud mother of a pretty little girl who is as bright as her mother was, and who, at the age of five, attends the kindergarten supervised by Miss Marguerite Schear. The sands show that the child’s mother is worried about finding a new school for her brilliant daughter as Miss Schear has announced her engagement to a Doctor in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Janice Miller’s husband has died, but she recovered from the shock, and is now so happy again that the sands call her “Merry Widow”. I see another studio. It is here that Ethel Van Norstran gives her music lessons. She is very devoted to her husband but finds his income insufficient to provide her with a new Packard and a fur coat this fall, so she has decided to earn them herself. Helena Merry appears playing an international tennis tournament. She is an expert player and has defeated Jean Heidy who mar-ried a French painter and lives in Bordeaux. Mildred Patton is seen on board an ocean liner on her way home from Paris with the latest fashions. She has become a popular dress-designer. Speaking of clothes, there appears in the sand a message which says that William Price is the leading tailor for aristocratic men of Ohio. ‘‘Who do you want to know about now?” asked the phrophetess. “I wish you would tell me what the future holds for my friends, “Dot” Harrison, Naomi Streb, “Lanky” Wilcoxin, “Ken” Rice, ‘Curt” Kaltenbaugh, and “Red” Maurer.” “Ah, yes indeed! I shall consult the stars for their futures.” Page thirty-seven DOI CR 199,6 CRIC9SOD GR€Y We walked to a window from where we could see the beautiful ,June sky. ‘ Margaret Wilcoxin is going to be a leader in the new Women’s Political Party, called the “Men-Haters”. “Kenneth Rice is going to earn a livelihood by playing with the ‘‘American Stars” basketball team. His wife, formerly Dorothy Harrison, travels with him from town to town for reason apparent. Another of your class mates followed his athletic inclination. “Red” Maurer thought he would cause as great a sensation, as a football player by the same nickname did when “Red” was in High School. He succeeded, but he too got into legal difficulties, although his manager, Curt Kaltenbaugh, is confident that “Red’s” attorney, Miss N. Streb can fix it up for him.” The fortune teller turned to me and asked if any had been omitted. I replied that I didn’t think so. She then charged me an outragous fee, but I paid it ungrudgingly as I felt quite satisfied that I now knew so much more than my friends about their futures. J. A.

The following year, sorry to say, only eighty-five names were placed on the class roll. Now we are happy indeed, to state that we still have the greater portion of these students with us as proud and capable Juniors. At our first Junior meeting held in September, we elected Ralph Buehler, president; Marian Ricksecker, vice-president Wilma Ziegler, secretary; and Carrie Schooley, treasurer. At a later meeting we elected Florence Pfeiffer, Junior Editor. Athletics have always held a special attraction for our class, this year being no exception. In fact, it excelled the two previous years, and many of our boys are proud to display their football letters and not a few are rising to the top in basketball. Although we have had no social activities as yet, we are exceedingly ambitious in regard to the annual Junior-Senior Prom, which we can justly predict to be an overwhelming success. As dignified Juniors, we glance back at our Freshman year and smile. We remember ourselves as Sophomores and our heads lift a little higher,—not because of pride, as much as just the fond memories which remain a part of us. And now, we look forward to our Senior year, and the feeling of joy is mingled with that of regret, for it signifies our last year in good old Dover High. Ruth Springer ’27.

Hi i '-Tc CRJf SOP GR€Y SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY Looking back over our two years of high school life, the date which is most pronounced is that of September 2, 1924. It was on that day that we enrolled as the usual “green Freshies.” Our first year was marked by the regular Freshman activities. A mixer, a marshmellow toast, and a party held at Sugarcreek Falls Inn. A number of the boys took prominent parts in athletics during the Freshman year. When we entered our Sophomore year in September 1925, with an enrollment of one hundred students, we of course acquired the usual Sophomore spirit, a “know it all” attitude with great contempt for “Freshies”. An early election resulted in the following officers being chosen: James Scrivens, president; Eleanore Weinsz, vice-president; Oneda Jen-tes, secretary; Jim Hill, treasurer; and Ruth Wible, historian. On October twenty third, we held a Hallowe’en party in the Gym. with suitable decorations and menu. Remembering the fine time we had had at our Freshman party at the Falls Inn, we held another party there on March 12. We feel proud of the record made in athletics by our boys this year. “Ike” Trubey, “Snub” Braun, “Happy” Glover, Clarence Funkhauser, and “Curly” Foutz made letters in football. Our class was also well represented in basketball by “Snub” Braun, “Ike” Trubey, “Bill” Thomas, and “Curley” Foutz. Thus it may be seen that we have taken a prominent part in athletics and social activities, but it remains for our teachers to say how prominent our part has been in the recitation room. We know that we have many obstacles to surmount before completing our high school course, but we feel that we have made a good beginning. Clinging to our motto, “Never Despair”, we are not fearful of our success. Ruth Wible ’28.

Possibly none now, for we are just a class of green Fresh-ies, with the one consolation that there have gone before and will come after us, classes that are very much greener than ourselves. On September 7, 1925, occurred the valuable annexation to Dover High School of one hundred and twenty-three Freshmen. At the end of the semester our number was diminished by only ten, showing that we have very few “quitters.” In the later part of September, a meeting was held in the main room at which the following officers were elected: Robert Smith, President; Johanna Bandi, vice-president; Anne Scott, secretary; and Charles Reese, treasurer. Later another meeting was held and the athletic manager, Tom Reeves, and the historian were selected. A recent assembling of the class resulted in the choosing of the flower, colors, and motto, which are, respectively: violet, lavender and gold, and “Deeds, not words!” The Freshman class is exceedingly proud of its contribution to the athletics of Dover High, having given as a football letter-man, Anthony, (“Tony”) Leon, and in addition a number of promising substitutes. Although we are represented by no Freshman on the basketball squad this year we are eagerly looking forward to our three future years in which to obtain our laurels. There is good material for an excellent “five” in the recently organized Freshmen Girls’ basketball team. The Class of “29” has been too busy proving their real value and worth to Dover High to observe many social functions. Excluding the parties of the Girls’ Reserve for the girls’ enjoyment, we Freshies have indulged in but one social event, which was a delightful party given at Sugarcreek Falls Inn on November seventh. The affair was a wonderful success, and the labor of the committee and Freshman advisors was appreciated by all who were there to enjoy the games, dancing, and lunch provided for them. Surely the spirit of this “class of ’29”, and the love it holds for its Alma Mater, is all that could be required of a class of young freshies. All that we can hope and work for is a class, which, at the end of its four years of trials and tribulations, may say: “We have fought a good fight; We have finished the course; We have kept the faith”. Myfanwy Braun, ’29 Payc fifty DOI €R 192,6 CRinSOD GR€Y COACH HERMAN Dover has a coach this year who excites much local pride. Everybody in Dover is proud of our coach. That is, everybody except Coach Hermann himself, and he isn’t built that way. His chest and hat measurements are the same whether he wins or loses, though there is little opportunity to see whether a loss would produce a shrinkage, even if a series of wins should produce undue expansion. Hermann is a winner for three reasons. First, he knows his stuff, both on the practical and on the theoretical side. Second, he knows young athletes and can handle them in a tactful and effective way without either playing the everlord with them or undignifying himself in their presence. Third, he never talks too much either while on the job or on the outside. He plays the game squarely and expects everybody else to do the same thing, yet he is a master at detecting the tricks and strategies of his opponents, however deep or crude they happen to be. In this present age, when victory is the big thing that all are seeking, no coach can be successful unless he knows all the devices by means of which some coaches try to persuade victory to come their way. Of course no coach can work without material, and in some lines of sport Dover has supplied him with an abundance of the best this year. But he is the type of athletic director who can do well with ordinary material and can make the best possible use of whatever happens to be in sight. It is useless to add that all loyal followers of Dover’s teams are hoping for his return next year, and it is likely that he has no desire to go elsewhere except for rewards which are far out of the usual. And in the event of his return his enthusiastic followers promise to be with him to the finish even if luck or material happens to be good, bad, or indifferent. Everybody is for the coach who knows the game, who knows his men, and who refuses to let any of this knowledge bloat his head or burst his chest. Joe'’ Hermann is that kind of a COACH.

ALPETER, “Art” Student Manager of Athletics. This was his first year as manager of athletics in Dover High, and we are sorry to say that it will be his last as he is a member of the class of 1926. He always performed his work in an efficient manner, which was his best. We look for great things to come from this young man in the future. re i DOVER HIGH’S SOU l) Standing left to right—Fisher, Faculty Mgr.

We were sadly disappointed, when, at the end of the game our team was at the small end of the score. A handicap we were unable to overcome, was that the team was composed of all new men with the exception of Maurer, Ream, Lohrman and Buehler. Carrollton’s score came in the second quarter when they recovered a blocked kick on Dover’s one yard line. The rest of the game was a losing fight for Dover, but Carrollton was unable to score again. In the second game of the season, played at home, we outplayed and outfought the heavy Wellsville team to a 12 to 6 victory. Dover showed marvelous improvement over her first game. The line, composed of nearly all green men had stiffened remarkably. Leon, our minature fullback, starred in this game by making twenty and thirty yard gains. Dover’s first score was made by Leon after A' 2 minutes of play. The other was made by Captain Maurer in the same quarter after an advance from the 30 yard line. Dover Hi gained sweet revenge on her husky friends from Uhrichsville on the home field 20 to 0. Uhrichsville was completely outclassed and no chance to win over Dover’s superior playing. Touchdowns were made by Deveney, Maurer, and Buehler. The game was fast and hard fought. This victory is all the more important because it was the first time in four years that the Crimson and Gray were victorious over the heavy Black and Gold teams. In a sea of mud at the fairgrounds, Dover Hi’s football team easily defeated Newcomerstown 36 to 0. Although Leon was ineligible, a future fullback was uncovered in Gephart who shown brilliantly in his first game for Dover. Touchdowns were made by Gephart, Buehler, Berquist, Maurer, Rearick, and Hoopingarner. The Dennison game was played at home on November 2. Dover Hi ran wild and scored 72 points to Dennison’s 6. On account of this, Coach Hermann gave all his future stars a chance at the visitors. Every man in uniform got into the game. Dover scored 6 minutes after the start and all through the game added touchdown after touchdown. Dennison’s lone score came after an eighty yard run through Dover’s third team. Leon and Maurer starred in the game, scoring 4 and 3 touchdowns respectively. The following week Dover journeyed into Harrison county to defeat Cadiz 13 to 0. Owing to the muddy field and various other reasons the team did not show much form, although they easily outfought and outpace sixty-two DOI €R m6 CRimon - GRGY played their opponents. Dover failed to score several times, when they were within five yards of the goal. Our team scored after the first i' i minutes of play, but were unable to repeat until late in the third quarter when Cadiz fumbled on her 15 yard line. Although the game was played on Wednesday afternoon the team was well supported by the school. Dover Hi showed the best football of the season at Minerva, on November 14, when it trounced the team of that town 26 to 7. Although we were out weighed and up against swift and strong ball toters, Dover outclassed Minerva in all departments of the game. Dover’s first score came while they were on their own 20 yard line. Leon passed to Braun who scored on a pretty run. Later in the game Leon scored on a crisscross from a kick-off and soon after ran a punt for 60 yards for his second touchdown. Dover’s enthusiasm received a severe jolt in the second quarter when Bup Rearick was badly injured. Our line played wonderful game, while the backfield work was flawless. Last but not least was the New Phila tussle at the fair grounds on Thanksgiving Day. Dover on account of their speedy backfield had her best chance of winning for several years. New’ Phila was very strong in her line and outweighed Dover heavily in that respect. But, to our misfortune, the day turned out to be cold, wet, and muddy. This was a decided set-back to Dover’s speedy backfield. The game started out well, but by the end of the first quarter the visitors had advanced the ball to our one yard line by a series of passes and line plays, and what hurt most of all, a fifteen yard penalty which was directly responsible for their first touchdown. Even then, they were forced to try three times for that last yard, so wonderful did the line hold. Soon after this Devney, Dover’s halfback ran 55 yards for a touchdown after intercepting a forward pass. Yorkevitz blocking the safety man, Leon failed to score the extra point, but Dover’s hopes were high. But in the fourth quarter Phila scored a safety on a blocked punt, and later with only one yard to go, fumbled, Yorkievitz recovering for Dover. Then New Phila after a series of line smashes and passes got another touchdown. The chief cause of Dover’s defeat was their inability to hold the line. Time after time Dover’s light backs were downed in their tracks by Phila’s heavy linesmen. Yorkievitz who played right tackle was the most aggressive man on the field although every one played their best. NEXT YEAR’S SCHEDULE Sept. 18 Sept. 25 Oct. 2 ..

Page sixty-three DOI CR 190,6 DOVER RECREATIONAL ASSOCIATION No doubt a large part of this year’s success in football was due to an organization of Dover citizens called “The Dover Recreational Association”. This association made it possible for the Dover squad of about forty boys to get the benefit of a football camp. The camp was situated at Waynesburg Grove, where a playing field, plenty of good bathing, and lots of fresh air were available. The squad was given football training, under the direction of Coach Hermann, on an average of six or seven hours a day. At the end of ten days’ training camp was broken and the boys returned to Dover in the best physical condition that a Dover squad had been in for years, which was made manifest in all their early season games. The entire high school and everyone connected with athletics therein feels very grateful to the Association for making this camp possible.

The game was very fast and close and at the end of the game both teams claimed victory. In the overtime period, Dover, having been called from the showers, was outlucked and lost by a few points. It was later discovered that we had won the game and that the overtime meant nothing. In our first home game of the season we tackled the Alumni. Our team completely outclassed the former high school stars and we won 30 to 19. The Alumni composed of local Wittenburg stars and College men were no match for the varsity. Rice and Maurer starred for the high school while Goodrich and ‘Vic” Maurer did most for the Alumni. On the last day of the year Dover went to Massillon to play the fast team of that city. Due to their lucky streak we were defeated by the close score of 32 to 29. Dover although leading nearly all the way were unable to stop Massillon’s last quarter spurt which netted them 10 points, enough to win the game. This was our first defeat and had Dover been up to form the result would have been different. The following week we journeyed to Uhrichsville and by showing better form easily disposed of them 23 to 10. It was a game of close guarding and few shots. Maurer, Rice, and Braun starred. Dover took on the fast Akron West aggregation the next evening on the Legion floor winning 30 to 17. The game was at no time in doubt and showed Dover that we had a team far superior to many larger cities. In one of the best games of the season, Dover easily defeated New Phila 32 to 9 on the Legion floor. Phila was completely outclassed in all departments of the game and did not have a showing against our fast team. Dover’s boys made baskets from every point on the floor and their Page seventy DOI €R mG C RICOS on - GReY passing was unsurpassed. Ike Trueby broke into the column of stars by 1 making 4 baskets in as many shots. Rice also starred as did every man on the team. This was the worst defeat Dover has ever given Phila in basketball. Medina High School proved no match for our classy team and we drowned them 28 to 12, on the home floor. Dover’s close guarding was a feature of the game. The Carrollton outfit which came here was a fast and clever team and proved to be a match for our quintet. The game was rough and Dover was unable to make any baskets which resulted in the low score of 14 to 11, Dover’s favor. Rice, Braun, and Rearick starred. Dover journeyed to the down-county town of Dennison where they easily defeated them 28 to 12. The score could have been much more one sided but Dover’s second team played most of the game. Dover continued her winning streak by defeating Uhrichsville a-gain 36 to 26 on the Legion floor. Dover shined on the offense making 15 baskets to Uhrichsville’s 8. Maurer starred for Dover. The following week we journeyed to Millersburg and although the first half of the game was close Dover came back in the second half and played them off their feet winning 24 to 11. Dover having now won ten of their eleven games tackled the strong East Liverpool quintet only to dispose of them by the score of 27 to 16. The fast river team were unable to keep up with the fast pace of Coach Hermann’s warriors. The game was played on the Legion floor. Rice and Rearick starring. We journeyed to Wooster the following week to tackle their highly touted team but they were downed 28 to 21. The first part of the game Dover left them far behind but a spurt at the last almost proved fatal to us. Ike Trueby saved the day by scoring as the final whistle blew. He also made good the two free throws resulting. Maurer also did outstanding work. Dover Hi swamped the Dennison team the following night on the Legion floor to the tune of 67 to 13. Dennison never had a chance and only made two field baskets, the rest of their points came as a result of fouls. The second team played part of the game and all made baskets. Although we defeated Phila by a decisive score the first game, New Phila backers expected their team to win the second game. We soon crushed their hopes however by downing them 21 to 14. The score does not show how one sided it was. Dover’s superior team work and passing showed that we had for the better team, but due to close refereeing which slowed up the game, and Dover’s poor luck at shooting the score was not run up. The game was rough and was attended by the largest crowd ever in the Legion. Stocker, Maurer, and Trueby starred as did every man on the team. The second team played part of the game and performed in great style. Dover entered the district tournament in class A. held at New Concord in the Muskingdom College gym. For the first game we drew the strong Bellaire team whom we easily disposed of by the score of 33 to 17. Captain Rice was high point man with 18 points, more than the entire Bellaire team scored. In the semi-finals we drew Cambridge, who was favored to win from us, but although without the services of Rice we defeated them 23 to 12. We had high hopes then of winning the tournament from Zanes- St Page seventy-one DOI €R 199 rRimSOn-GRGY yille in the final game but due to stage-fright which got us off to a slow start we were defeated 30 to 20. Rice was not in form due to injuries and Trueby and Rearick had to be put out on fouls which accounted for it. To show you how we came back the second half, the score at the half was 17 to 4. Our last quarter spurt almost beat them. m m m HONORABLE MENTION Arthur Schlundt, Forward and Center Art will be here next year. Theodore Yourkevits, Guard Yorky will be here next year. Floyd Andreas, Forward Buss has two more years. Ralph Buehler, Guard Beeler has another year. James Stocker, Forward Jim will be here next year. Rob Roy Finley, Forward Bud graduates this year.

Previous to this time the girls always played interschool games as well as the boys. At the beginning of this school year after our coach and gym teacher, Miss Dorothy Beller, gave us a talk on the advantages of the point system, the girls voted for this system. One advantage is that the point system puts the girls on an equal basis. Another advantage is that, besides having basketball as a sport for the girls, we shall also have in-door baseball and volley ball. Each class will have a team in each of these sports so if a girl cannot make one team she has an opportunity to make one of the other. At the end of the seasons of basketball, baseball, and volley ball a Crimson team will be chosen from the Freshmen and Junior girls, and a Gray team from the Sophomores and Senior girls. A game played between these two determines the champion team. At the end of her four years the girl who has 1300 points or over will be entitled to a sweater. The girls who make 975 points will be entitled to a large red letter. Those who make 650 points will get a small gray letter. Those making 325 points will get a numeral. The various ways by which these points may be gained are as follows: 50 points are awarded to the girl who makes a class team; 25 points to the one who makes a Crimson of Grey team; 25 points for the girl who is chosen captain of any of these teams; 25 points for attending three-fourths of her class practices; 25 points go to each of the ten girls of each class doing the best gym work. In addition to these ways of gaining points there will be hikes, and the girl who attends three-fourths of them is entitled to 75 points. Page seventy-three Doi eR I9a6 CFUr SOn GR6Y B A S E B A L L Baseball has become one of the leading sports in the Athletic department and this year under the able leadership of Coach Joe Hermann, we can expect very great success. The team has not been organized when this annual went to press but we are sure to have an abundance of material. SUCCESS IN ATHLETICS The past year has been by far the mose successful year for athletics in Dover Hi for many years. Mr. Hermann, our most worthy coach has given us a winning team both in basketball and football. The support of the town is especially appreciated and we think that with a good coach and plenty of support is all a team needs. Dover went through a tough football schedule with only two losses out of eight. We scored 185 points to our opponents 40. Our success in basketball has been even greater. Our decisive victories over New Phila, Uhrichsville, and many large schools proves it. We won 16 of our 18 games, losing only to Massillon and Zanesville and those by close scores. We scored 516 points against our opponents 305, which is an average score per game of 29 to 17. We are considered the second best basketball team in the state of Ohio, because Zanesville, the state champions, defeated all other runners up by a much larger score than they did us. It may further be stated that we are invited to Chicago to participate in the National Tournament. This proves that we are not only known state wide but national wide. We wish to thank the town-people for their loyal support and all those who helped make this team a success. • Page seventy-four Doucn m6 IN APPRECIATION Mr. Lawrence H. Alexander, better known as “Alex” has been in charge of music in Dover Hi for several years, and through his earnest efforts the standard of music has been steadily increasing.

It is due to the training which L. H. Alexander has given them in the past years that has made them capable of doing this upon entering High School. Having three more years in which to improve, this chorus will undoubtedly be the best that Dover Hi has ever turned out. Page eighty DOI CR m6 CRIC SOD GR6Y ANNUAL STAFF CRIMSON and GREY, D. H.

The meetings are spent in the untiring writing of numerous large words such as dis-interestablishmentarism. The motto of the Organization being “Better Late than Never” is easily upheld. Page eighty-six DOl CR mG CRir SOr GR6Y SOCIAL EVENTS On April 24, 1925 the Class of ’26 gave the Junior-Senior Prom at the Wentz hall. This was the most elaborately decorated affair in the history of the school. Blue and gray was the main color scheme, while old rose and gold was used to decorate the balcony. Dilger catered with the aid of some of the Sophomores and provided plenty of eats. The dance was well attended and was voted as one of the best. Owing to crowded conditions, the Girl Reserves thought it would be wise not to invite the Hi-Y to the Freshman mixer this year. Although the G. R. invited only the Freshmen girls, the party was a great success. Games and eats were the main events, but in the excitement our G. R. President received a black eye. After all, we think it was wise that the Hi-Y club was absent. Members of the class of ’28 greatly enjoyed a Hallowe’en party which was held in the gym. Approximately sixty-five members attended, dressed in Hallowe’en attire. The gym was beautifully decorated in autumn leaves, lighted pumpkin faces, corn shocks, and black and orange streamers. Various games were played and favors were awarded to several. A delicious lunch was served by the committee. A Football dance was given in the gym under the auspices of the Annual Staff. It was well attended and the decorations were of true football style. Novelty dances, such as forward pass, scrimmage, and others helped to enliven the evening. A Football banquet was given in honor of the team by the Dover Kiwanis Club in the dining room of the American Legion. Ernie Godfrey, Coach at Wittenburg, was the main speaker of the evening. In order to atone for their great mistake at the beginning of the year the Girl Reserves gave a Christmas Party, inviting the Hi-Y and their friends. At this annual event the G. R. brand of games and eats were once again in order. Every person gave fifteen cents which was used to help the needy families. Everyone had a fine time and we hope that the party took away all the hard feelings the Hi-Y may have had against us. The Colonial Tea given by the Girl Reserves was another outstanding event of the year. About 275 guests were entertained including parents and friends. After a pleasing program in the auditorium, tea was served at small tables in the hall, which was decorated to represent a garden. Members of the cabinet in colonial costumes, presided over the tea tables. On March 22, the Rotary Club gave a dinner dance at the Franklin Inn, in honor of the basketball squad, Mr. Hermann, Mr. Fisher, and Art Alpeter, and also Curt Kaltenbaugh and Jim McBride, our efficient cheerleaders.

I am growing weaker all the time, and I don’t think I can live much longer. I would like to live on for Sally’s sake—but other than that I haven’t another interest in the world. Mary—after I am gone, won’t you please take Sally into your home as your own daughter? You have always been so good to me that I am quite content that my little daughter will be happy. I want you to keep some money that I have—until she is eighteen. It may help her along then, in whatever she wishes to do. I also have the precious Stradivarius that belonged to her father. Won’t you take care of it and give it to her when she is old enough to understand and appreciate it? I haven’t much money to give you, but I feel sure that someday Sally will repay you. With deepest love to my old nurse, Helen Sundale. And so it happened that Sally Sundale went to live with Mary MacIntyre, her mother’s beloved nurse, when she was just two years old. At first Mary had lived in a charming little cotiage where Sally could play outdoors all day in the sunshine. But when Sally was five, Mary lost ail of her money in a poor investment and had to move into the city. It seemed as though each year it became harder and harder for Mrs. MacIntyre to make ends meet, until by the time Sally was ten they were living in an Irish settlement in the slums. Sally loved the people on King Street, and everyone loved her. She was taken into the ‘neighborhood gang” immediately, which was the highest honor ever bestowed on anyone by the “kids”. But it isn’t surprising that Sally was so admired. She was a very pretty child, with a sort of boyish appearance. She had short brown hair, and large brown eyes that sparkled continuously. And then she was so generous and thoughtful of others. It was always Sally who invented new games,—and performed the most daring feats. She even went so far as to jump from the second story window into a blanket held by the rest of her daring companions. Being successful, she was just going to leap from the third story when she saw Mary coming,—so she decided to postpone the event until later. In time she was recognized as “supreme ruler.” But in spite of her popularity she always made a place of honor for her best friend, Jimmy O’Hara. Jimmy was two years older than Sally, and because of this, thought that he was her guardian. He had sandy hair, and blue eyes, and was very determined in everything he undertook to do. Jimmy and Sally were always together, and shared all their joys and sorrows. Sometimes after an exerting war with the neighboring gang, or an Indian fight, they would all sit down on the curb and beg Sally to tell them stories. One day she told them about the rainbow. She explained it to them Page ninety-two DOI €R 1926 CRiroon-GRGY and then as she was finishing, said, “But the best part of the rainbow is at the end of it. There is a big pot of gold at the end, and whoever finds it may keep it for his very own. Someday I’m going to start out to find the pot of gold—and when I find it, I’ll come back and make you all rich. “Sally, Sally!” cried Jimmy, “you musn’t go without me. I want to help you hunt it.” “I want to go all by myself, Jimmy. I know! You go alone to hunt it, too. Maybe there is one at each end. As soon as we find them we will come back here.” As Sally grew older she began taking a great interest in music. There was a dear old lady, Miss Martin, lived at the end of the street,who could play a violin. Sally used to go to hear her play and stay for hours. Of course Jimmy went along—but not to hear the music! One day Sally took her violin along and asked the lady to play on it. As she opened the case she exclaimed, “What a wonderful instrument! It is worth thousands of dollars! Let me teach you to play on it! Let me teach you!” Sally was a little shy at first, but finally her curiosity overpowered her timidity. Her heart was fairly pounding as she took the violin and followed her instructions. She could do it! She made it sound just like Miss Martin did! She was going to learn to play! Sally went to Miss Martin every day, she learned more all the time. The old lady taught Sally for the enjoyment she received from it, and Sally’s progress seemed to mean so much to her. On the hot summer evenings Sally would sit in the doorway of the old tenement house and play and play. To the kind old neighbors it seemed as if through her music she was recalling to them happier times in the past. And to those who were her faithful followers—she inspired youthful dreams and ambitions. Finally Miss Martin told her that she could teach her nothing more. “You know more than I do, Sally, you can play better now than I ever could. I wish you could go to study under masters. If you ever do you will attain great fame. You are one out of million that has the good fortune to have such great talent, and besides, to own the precious violin that you have. But Sally kept right on. She practiced every day, and it seemed as though the more she played, the more she wanted to play. Soon she reached her eighteenth birthday. The day dawned bright and clear and as she looked out, she felt as though she woud like to fly over all the tall, old buildings to some unknown place where she would have opportunities to become rich and famous. “Mary, I’m going out to-day to look for some place to work. I want to earn some money so I can help you—and perhaps take a few lessons,” she said while she was eating her breakfast. Mary walked toward her and gazing at her thoughtfully, pulled a small leather bag out of her pocket. She placed it in Sally’s hands saying, “Sally, your mother gave me this and told me to keep it until you were eighteen. She said that she hoped it might help you to realize whatever ambitions you might have.” Greatly surprised, Sally looked first at Mary and then at the bag. Dumfounded and with trembling fingers she opened it and drew out a Paye ninety-three DOl eR 19S16 uT' CRir SOD GR6Y roll of bills. She counted the money slowly, and then like someone in a daze she cried, “Five hundred dollars! Five hundred dollars—all for me. My mother—Now I can take lessons.” Then a distant light died out of her eyes and she came out of her dream saying, “Mary, the only thing I want to do with this money is give it to you. It is only a very small part of what I owe you.” “No! no! Sally, you must not say that. I couldn’t think of taking it. I want you to go on with your music.” Sally coaxed and pleaded with her but to no avail. When she saw that Mary was determined, she made plans to take lessons from Professor Kosloff. The world was all rose-color to her. The next morning about ten o’clock she went to his studio to arrange her lessons. The first thing he asked her to do was to play for him. While she was taking her coat off, a rather middle aged gentleman came in. He was evidently an intimate friend of Kosloff’s. “Good morning, Herscheimer.” “Greetings, Kosloff. How’s business?” “Fair—I—, and then rushing across the room to Sally, he cried, “That violin! Did you ever see its equal! Herscheimer look! It is worth fifty thousand dollars! What I would give to own one like that. My girl, how did it come into your possession? “It was my father’s,” responded Sally, “he was a great musician.” “Would you sell it?”, demanded Herscheimer. “I’m sorry, but I would not part with it for one hundred thousand dollars. I love it as I would a person.” “Play for me now,” said Kosloff, as he walked toward a large window, and stood there with his back to her. Sally began playing a simple, sweet melody. It seemed as though she were putting her very soul into the music. Not a sound! Everything was silence save for her playing. Finally she stopped and stood waiting for their comments. Tick—tock—tick—tock!’ Two minutes..........three minutes..... still not a sound. Then Kosloff scarcely turning whispered, “It...was....per- fect!” That was all, he told her to come the next day. Herscheimer bade her a pleasant farewell, and she was dismissed like a servant. The next day Sally found the master in quite a different mood—he criticized every move she made, and every piece she played. The day after it was still the same,—he gave her no praise, and seemed to resent her very presence. That evening as she reached King street she saw Mary coming to meet her. “Sally, Miss Martin is very ill, and she has been asking for you.” When Sally reached the house she found one of the neighbor ladies there. Sally saw at once that Miss Martin was in a serious condition, so she called a doctor. For a week the old lady was in the constant care of a trained nurse, and had a specialist. Then one night she died just as suddenly as she had become ill. Along with the shock of her death, came the realization to Sally that all of her precious money was gone. Miss Martin had practically no money,—so consequently, Sally’s money had gone to pay the nurse Vaye ninety-four Doven mG CRimon-CRGY and the doctors. She would have to give up her lessons and go to work. That afternoon she went to Kosloff’s studio to tell him that she could be his pupil no longer. The world seemed all gray once again. She found Herscheimer there and as she told her story he listened intently. Suddenly, he exclaimed, “She is just the one, Kosloff. She is just the one we are looking for.” At first Sally could not understand—but he made it clear to her that he wanted to send some promising young musician abroad to study. The day he had heard her play he had been greatly impressed but it had not occurred to him to send her. “Then you mean that I am to go to Germany to study? You are going to send me—to study music?” “Yes, I shall pay all your expenses.” “But I can never repay you,” Sally answered. “You will repay me by making a success. I’m sure that you will be a success,” Herscheimer replied. At first Sally protested, but between Mary and Herscheimer they finally persuaded her to accept the offer. Jimmy pleaded with her not to go, but she said, “You remember, Jimmy, how I used to tell you that I was going out sometime to find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. I want to see if I can find it over there.” Inside of two months Sally and Mary were comfortably settled in Berlin. Sally worked hard those years under great masters. She began giving concerts and she was steadily gaining popularity. And then one day she sailed for home! She was coming back to show her people what she had accomplished. It was the night of her debut. The lights were out in the great auditorium. The audience sat in awe as they listened to the penetrating music. As she finished, the applause broke forth like a great roll of thunder. At last she was famous, she had made a place for herself in the world. Instead of going back to the apartment—she slipped away and went back to King street where she had left Jimmy and her old friends. As she walked down the street she looked about and saw several familiar faces. They did not recognize her, but Sally never knew it. She went on until she came to the old tenement house where she had lived. She sat down on the doorstep and began to play just as she had done before. She had told them all that she would come back—and now she was here. While she was playing, a dark figure slipped out of a doorway and stole up beside her. She did not notice him until he cried, “Sally!” “Jimmy! Where have you been ? I have been looking for you everywhere. You never wrote—How did you know I was here?” “I heard you play tonight—and then I came down here just as you told me to do the day you told me about the rainbow. I found the pot of gold, Sally, in a. bank on Broadway,—and now I have come back to claim you for my own. Then my rainbow will be complete.” So they both had found the pot of gold, just as they had imagined years before. And they both had found it full to overflowing with wealth, fame, friends, and love.

Robert Creel, one of the famous players of the early eighties smiled as he watched the practice. Another football season was beginning and he was happy. Creel walked on down the sideline and then paused as a player suddenly ran toward him after a misdirected punt. The ball fell at Creel’s feet. He picked it up and tossed it to the player. “Here you are, son.” “Thank you, sir.” The boy caught the ball and with swift motions sent it down the field toward the players. Before running out upon the gridiron to join them, he turned and smiled at Creel. As he ran away Creel watched him. The boy had made a curious impression on him. True enough the boy had met in every way Creel’s ideal of what a football player should be. But there seemed to be something more than just this. Presently Creel could not help turning back on the field and approaching a player who stood on the sidelines. “Who,” he asked, “is that tall, dark-haired young fellow who just punted? I mean what’s his name”. “That’s Joe Nelson, sir,” came the reply. “I see. Thanks.” Creel nodded and walked off the field. That night at the Alumni Banquet Creel didn’t enjoy himself as he had planned. Of course, he was called on to speak. For some years he had been writing articles on football in the Alumni Weekly, under the name of “Old Grad.” But even so he had no spirit to-night. For some reason or other he was sad—he envied these men so many of whom had sons coming after them in college. A boy back in the old school doing the same things you used to. Youth could never quite die in a man when this was happening. His hand stroked his grey hair—everyone told him he looked young. Perhaps he did, but he wasn’t. He knew better. Something had died inside of him the second year of his married life when his wife had died, the girl who used to sit among the crowds at the big games in his student days and cheer him on to wonderful deeds. And then his daughter—a gleam not of sorrow, more of anger crossed his face. He rubbed his forehead as if trying to rub away unpleasant memories. But nevertheless they continued—he really had nothing to live for. He had worked on Wall Street long after there was any necessity. Plenty of money, nothing to do with it. He had already done much for charity. He was feeling so melancholy that he was about to slip out of the room when something the secretary of the association was saying caught his attention. It was about raising a scholarship fund for a boy from the South who had entered his Sophomore year. This matter was a special case and if it was to be met an additional sum must be subscribed. “It is rather an interesting situation,” the secretary was saying. “This boy, Nelson, I am given to understand, is a very fine football player. Don’t misunderstand me, this isn’t his only qualification. He is a good student, a boy who deserves all assistance that can be given him. I am 1'age one hundred DOI €R m6 cRimon - GRe y advised by the registrar that he may have to leave college this year. His father died this summer and he feels he should be earning something.” The speaker paused, then he asked, “Well, what are we going to do about it? Some of you have sons in school. Some of you have not. But everyone who subscribes to this fund can proudly say ‘I have a boy in the old school.’ ” In another moment Creel had agreed to pay the entire subscription. The next day the office seemed tiresome and dull; so Creel took the afternoon train and ran up to the college to watch scrimmage. Before the practice began he asked Joe Nelson to meet him for a few minutes afterward. The two teams lined up. But time after time the varsity made no gains. Everyone could readily see that it was because of Joe who was playing end on the scrub team. When Creel met Joe after practice he introduced himself and said he wanted to be a friend of the boy’s. “You know,” he said, “I haven’t any one. I’m a lonely old cuss. I had the dearest little wife. She died long ago. I had a daughter. She married without my knowledge or consent. I’ve never seen her since. Maybe dead, probably is.” “I’m old enough to know how you feel,” Joe replied. I can see that you’re even worse off than I am. Cause even if I do miss my dad, I’ve a mother and she’s a corker.” Creel asked the boy to dine with him at the club but Joe smiled and shaking his head explained that he was a waiter at the dorm and would have to report for duty in fifteen minutes. “I see”, Creel was at a loss for words. “I’d love to keep in touch with you if you’ve any time and patience for an old grand—an old grad without a boy.” “Thank you. I’d love to know you better, sir. Any time you can, drop in at my room when you’re down here.” Next Saturday was the first game. Of course Creel was there. When the first half ended neither team had scored. At the beginning of the second half Joe Nelson was sent in as right end. On the first signal he caught the ball and started down the field—when he saw his chance he passed the ball thirty yards to another player who successfully carried it across the line for a touchdown. Everyone had risen to his feet in the excitement and was cheering wildly. Creel turned to the man beside him. “That’s my boy.” he said. Then he stopped and looked ashamed. But the other man didn’t know him; he turned, grinned and slapped him on the shoulder. “Bully for you. You ought to be proud of that boy. He’s got football written all over him.” That night after dinner Creel went to the new star’s room. He had not come in yet. Creel was studying the poorly furnished room when Nelson entered. “Joe”, said Creel, “it isn’t necessary for me to tell you what a fine game you played.. What I want to talk about is you. You ought not have to spend all your spare time waiting on table.” Joe smiled, “Oh, I don’t know sir. The dean says that only those who have to work for their education really get the most out of it.” Paye one hundred one DOI eR 192.6 CRir SOD GR6Y “That might be true,” interrupted Creel. “But I happen to know that because of football you’ve lost two jobs you had last year. Now, what I want to do is to place a sum of money in your name in the Merchant’s Bank in New York—five hundred dollars. When this is withdrawn I’ll be notified and I shall replace it.” “Oh, I couldn’t accept that, sir.” “Now, understand, I’m not giving it to you. It’s a loan to be paid back after you graduate.” Joe thought a minute then he said, “I’ll tell you, Mr. Creel, I’ll use it if I need it and what I use I’ll pay back as soon as I can. Is that all right?” “Quite all right.” Three weeks later Creel got word from the bank that there was only twenty five dollars left in that account. He smiled. Yes, boys cost money. He was so anxious to see what changes Joe had made with the money that he went down to the college that evening to talk to the boy. But to his surprise he found that Joe had not changed his room. Although they talked together for more than an hour he said nothing about the money, so a little disappointed Creel was about to leave when Joe said. “Mr. Creel, I’ve been thinking a lot about what you told me about Mrs. Creel and—and about your daughter. That about your daughter seems terrible. Was she so bad?” Creel became pale, then trying to smile he said, “That’s all right. Those are things one must forget.” Then he went on, “I suppose I wasn’t a very attentive father. She was at a boarding school and ran away with a man. I’d forbidden her to see,—a riding-master.” “And you never heard from her?” “She wrote me two or three times. After years had gone by I wrote to her. She never answered it. That—that was the last.” “Maybe she moved and didn’t get the letter.” “It makes no difference now, Joe. Let’s not talk about it anymore.” “Yes, sir” The boy went back into his room and Creel went on his way. Two weeks later when he picked up the sport page at the breakfast table the headlines startled him. Hurriedly he read the article. Joe Nelson had been declared ineligible to play in the big game next Saturday. An official in the New York bank, who was a former football player on the rival team, had shown where Nelson had accepted funds from an alumnus. Therefore he could not play in the big game. Creel hurried to the college but Joe was nowhere to be found and no one knew anything about him. After much thought and worry. Creel started the next day for the boy’s home in a small town about two hundred miles distant. He rushed from train to taxi until he reached the little vine-covered cottage. He ran up the steps and rang the bell, Joe opened the door. “Mr. Creel” he cried. “Joe have you treated me fairly running off when I could have helped you or is it because I got you in the scrape?” “I was writing to you just now about that money,” Joe explained. “You see, I sent it to mother. She was sick, and there were some bills Page one hundred two DOI €R 19%6 CRimon - GRGY —1 1J I - - U V J 1 I knew nothing about. Dr. Martin wrote to me about them. He said they were making her ill. So I drew out most of the money. I knew you hadn’t given it to me for mother, but— “Nonsense. It was for you to use any way you wished. How is your mother now?” “Come in and see for yourself, wmn’t you?” He took the man by the arm and led him into the house. “Mother, mother!” he called. The next minute she was coming down the stairs. “Did you want me, Joe? Oh—she stopped and looked at Creel. Then suddenly with a little cry she fell on her knees at his feet. “Joe—how long have you known this?” Creel’s voice was scarcely more than a whisper. “Almost from the first, Sir.” Creel bent down and lifted the woman to her feet. “I—I was wrong,” she was trying not to cry. “But I loved him and he loved me, always.” Creel kissed her. Then suddenly he walked to the desk and picking up the pen he wrote, “Am returning with Joe Nelson who will play in Saturday’s game. He happens to be my grandson. And I guess he can accept all the money from me that I want to give him.” He sealed the letter, and looking at his watch said, “Hurry, Joe, and get ready. He turned to the woman, his voice ringing. “You too, Mary. Hurry, This will be the first time we’ve seen our boy in a big game—and we want to see all we can, don’t we?” Josephine Jentes ’26 3J !J f Page one hundred three DO! €R 19a6 M t V CFJ SOD GR6Y A LITTLE SURPRISE FOR MOTHER Mother Whitmore sat by the kitchen stove, looking through the dainty, white curtains across the fields to a big, old white house. Everything in the comfortable kitchen reflected care, the needful care of a conscientious housekeeper. It was early Spring and the world, as seen by mother from her old-fashioned chair by the window, seemed glowing and fresh in the radiant sunshine. She was a woman of perhaps sixty-five, but due to a winter of illness. was looking worn and old. Her wrinkled hands now and then reached for the big spoon and stirred the ingredients of the kettle on the stove. The outside door opened and a pretty, neat-looking young woman, wearing a heavy sweater, entered with a bucket of coal. “My, I’ll be thankful when the warm weather comes, and we can throw all of our doors and windows open, won’t you, mother?” Mother did not seem to hear the words of her daughter; she was look so intently through the window. “Come here, Nellie,” she said as Nellie approached. “Whatever do you suppose they are doing to that old Brier home across the way? The blinds are all up and men have been going in and out all morning.” Nellie moved to the window and pulled back the curtain. A faint smile spread over her face, but she turned to her mother with a feigned expression of surprise as she answered, “What can they be doing? That’s the first time that those windows have been opened for twenty years, or almost, isn’t it, mother?” “Fifteen years ago when old Mr. Brier died, his son, Jack, closed up the place and went away, out West or somewhere. No one has seen him since,” replied Mrs. Whitmore. “And it was left furnished, too, wasn’t it?” “Yes,” the white haired lady continued, “Jack said that nothing should be touched. He wanted it left just the way it was when his mother died. You remember, she died just six months before her husband.” “Didn’t Jack say that he might return some day?” queried Nellie, “But no one has heard from him, have they?” “Not a soul. He said that he might come back and live there some day. Many folks have wanted to buy the farm, but Jack has completely disappeared.” “It must be he, now,” said Nellie. “Perhaps he’s married and bringing his family back East.” “Just as I want our Jack to do” said the old lady, with a look of longing as she clasped Nellie’s hand. “Oh, Nellie, you don’t know how much I have wanted Jack this last winter. Sometimes when I think of him away out in Nebraska, and I, not well and maybe won’t be here much longer, I can scarcely stand it.” Nellie’s eyes twinkled as she turned again to the window. “Look, mother, they are carrying a trunk in, and there is a lot of furniture there on the porch.” The mother once more looked across the field, “Doesn’t it seem Page one hundred four DOI €R m6 CRimOn-GRGY grand to see the blinds up again and the curtains flying out with the “I’ll bet it is, mother,” Nellie answered with enthusiasm. “Oh ip. I’m so anxious to get acquainted with them. “Oh, Nellie,” and her mother grasped her arm, “look at the lovely, big automobile that just drove up in front of the gate. My, he must have made good out there. Look, someone is getting out. That must be Jack. Oh, I wish I were feeling well enough, I’d just like to run over a minute and welcome him back.” “No doubt, he will be over to see you soon, mother,” Nellie answered as she moved to the table and started to set it. “Jack was such a nice boy. I always liked him. He and our Jack were the best friends, always together. There was only a few months difference in their ages. Look, he is getting out of the car. My, he looks so familiar. Somehow, Nellie, from here he looks just like our Nellie smiled again. “They did look a great deal alike, didn’t they, mother?” Her mother shook her head. “I never thought so. Our Jack was so much more handsome. See, Nellie, he is coming across the field. Gracious but he must have changed in looks. He is very nice looking, isn’t he?” Just at this critical moment, the outside door opened and father Whitmore, a good-natured looking old man entered. Nellie winked at him as she crosed to the cupboard, and father crossed the room, preparing to enter the other part of the house, when mother called, “What’s happened across the way, father? Come here. There’s someone coming through the fields towards our house.” Mr. Whitmore dropped his hat on a chair and walked to the window. “I’ve noticed some folks about there to-day,” he said, with a glance in Nellie’s direction. “Someone must have found Jack and bought the place from him.” “Oh, so you think?” mother replied with disappointment. “I had no idea but what it was anyone else but Jack Taylor himself. Whoever it is coming over to see us right now. See—father—You had better go out and see what he wants.” “I think he will come into the house: he probably wants to get acquainted,” father carelessly replied. Once again mother leaned forward to see better. After a glance she opened her mouth and caught at father’s arm. “Father! Nellie!” she gasped, “It’s Jack, our Jack!” Nellie, who had been watching the supper that was cooking on the stove, surprised by her mother’s action, turned to her father. “Shall we tell her, father?” she whispered and father nodded. “That is just who it is, mother,” she said as she knelt and put her arms about her. “Our Jack and Jeanne and their two children are coming back here to live, right across the field from us.” The sweet-faced little woman could not speak. Big tears came to her eyes. Finally, she turned to father and whispered, “And you and breeze? There is some bedding on the line, Nellie, airing. Jack surely | must be back. Who’s that little woman, I wonder. I suppose Jack’s wife.” HIV- VIIIIUO up UftWlll (WIU V V V«1 VUI11U ‘V 0 vwv There is some bedding on the line, Nellie, airing.

Mother, smiling through her tears, fumbled for her handkerchief and said, as she straightened her pretty white hair, “My, Nellie, I’m so glad that I made those apple dumplings this morning; Jack just loves them.” After all the kissing and rejoicing Jack settled down, and told them about living out West. When he had first gone out West he became companion and friend of a very bad set of people and so had not succeeded. He cried and said, “So I just couldn’t come back home until I had made good. I didn’t tell Jeanne at first of my troubles, so it was all the harder. After she knew, she helped me until I am making splendid now. “But” he said jumping up and taking his father’s arm, “I must tell you the pleasant part of my story.” “I happened to get in touch with Jack Taylor through a friend. So I made a special trip to see him, about five-hundred miles from Lincoln. I succeeded, much to my delight, in getting what I’ve wanted for years. Jack is prospering so well out West that he does not want to come back East, so he sold his old birthplace to me.” The big, sturdy young man smiled and walked over and knelt at his mother's side. He said, “Jack knew that there was nothing that would make me happier than to come back and live by my dear, old mother.” Margaret Wentz, ’26 m m SOMEBODY WRONG Twas a nice day in October last September in July The moon lay thick upon the ground the mud shone in the sky The flowers were singing sweetly the birds were full of bloom When I went into the cellar to sweep an upstairs room The time was Tuesday morning on Wednesday just at night When I saw a thousand miles away a house just out of sight The walls projected backwards and the front was round the back It stood alone with others and the fence was white-washed black ’Twas a summer day in winter and the snow was raining fast And a barefooted boy with shoes on stood sitting in the grass Twas evening and the rising sun was sitting in the west And the little fishes in the treetops were cuddled in their nest Twas midnight on the ocean not a streetcar was in sight And everything that you could see was hidden out of sight.

J_________—T3 ii I - ' 'I U 1 — ■ — I v i 0 L I) G R ADS During the last few months our Literary Editor requested several of the Alumni to send us greetings. To show that very few. of Dover High’s graduates ever forget her, we may say that the response to our request was prompt and gratifying. We believe that the readers of the “Crimson and Grey would like to see some of these letters so we will print them verbatim below. The first is from a graduate of ’15, now a famous actor and playwright. But to High School pupils he will always be remembered as the Editor-in-chief of the first “Crimson and Grey” Dover Hi published. Hollis St. Theater, Boston, Mass., Feb. 16, 1926. Dear Staff:—May I wish all the editorial staff the greatest success with this issue of the Dover High School Annual. I often think with pleasure of the first “Crimson and Grey”, and of all the hard and happy work we put into its creation. It’s a good old High School and a good old Annual—long may they wave! Yours, ELLIOTT NUGENT The next letter is from a prominent member of the Class of 1898. He has also left the old High School to obtain success in great New York. Birchfield Company, 110 West 40th St., New York City. My dear Staff:—Having met many graduates of famous colleges and universities—with the opportunity for measuring their ability in competition on the greatest battleground of wits in the world—I can merely modestly whisper that I would not exchange the mental training received in the Schools of Dover for the best I have met. If this sounds like egotism, charge it to a sincere grateful appreciation of what I owe to my teachers. Sincerely, C. A. BIRCHFIELD And now we hear from a former Dover High School athlete who is the well known coach at Wittenburg College, and who graduated in the class of ’ll. Springfield, Ohio. February 19, 1926 Dear Dover High:—It is a distinct honor, I am sure, as an Alumni of Dover High School, to express my sentiments toward my Alma Mater. Certainly I will always be indebted to the city of Dover and the Professors in those days, for the rich things in life that I am now enjoying. I am especially indebted to Mr. Teeter, Mr. Forney and Miss Page one hundred seven DOI CR 192,6 CRIC9SOn GR6Y Lind for the instructions I received under them. All during my college days at Ohio State, I did not have an instructor who was better qualified to teach than the ones I just referred to. As to athletics, I wish to call the attention to the boys who are now representing Dover High, that the greatest victory of all is an education with a high scholarship standing. May Dover High go on down through the ages, taking its foremost place in the educational world. I remain, as ever a loyal and enthusiastic. Alumni of Dover High ERNEST R. GODFREY The next letter is from a prominent Dover business man, a graduate of 1886. Reeves Banking Trust Co. Feb. 25, 1926. Dear Editors:—Forty years bring many changes in any man’s opinions, for points of view are always shifting. But whatever the angle from which one looks at Dover High School, the institution seems always to command an increasing respect. Every year the Alumni develop a broader appreciation of its contribution to the life of the Dover community, and a keener sense of what it has meant and still means in their own lives. As a member of the class of ’86, I cannot emphasize this truth too strongly. Dover High School has built itself into the business and persona] life of our community, not only because of the educational facilities which it provides, but also by reason of the spirit in which it serves. L. H. OERTER The following is from a talented member of the class of ’19 who has succeded in winning recognition at home and abroad. Hail to Alma Mater:—A few years absence from my Alma Mater intensifies rather than dims my recollection of the four pleasant and fruitful years spent within its walls. Dover High has been and so should it be for all who enter its halls, the most important stepping stone in one’s life, for it gives to us that firm foundation for the future, which, when it is once attained, does not soon crumble away. Not only do we profit from an intellectual standpoint, but in each of us is installed that glorious school spirit, the flame of which is never dying and continues to smolder within us throughout the years, spuring us always on to better and greater things. Hail to Alma Mater. GLADYS D. FRIED. Page one hundred eight DOI CR 1926 CRimon-CRGY The next letter is from a busy Cleveland business man, who graduated in ’05. American Steel Wire Co. Feb. 19, 1926. Dear Staff:—Your letter recalls to my mind many happy recollections of the days when I was a student at Dover High School. Unfortunately, after graduating from school, we do not often have the pleasure of associating to any extent with our old classmates who represent a high class of citizenship and it is only through the efforts of the younger generation in publishing the annual that we, in some instances, have any knowledge of the whereabouts of our old classmates. Wishing you the largest measure of success in your efforts, I am, Yours Sincerely, J. C. HOPKINS. The last letter is from the First Lady of our State who graduated from Dover High in ’96. State of Ohio, Executive Department Columbus, Ohio. To the Pupils of Dover High School:—Members of the senior class of Dover High School have my heartiest congratulations because soon they will be graduates. To the pupils of the other classes of the school my advice is to keep on, if at all possible, until they will have earned their diplomas. A high school education is a great thing—something which one really doesn’t fully appreciate until one can look back in retrospect. High school friendships, associations and experiences are never forgotten but become more and more precious with the years. I am glad I had the opportunity for such a training, and am especially proud to be an alumni of the high school of the fine city of Dover in the wonderful county of Tuscarawas in the great state of Ohio.

It was the hour of twelve on a cold, soundless night in the dead of winter. A foot of virgin snow covered the ground. The full moon, shining through a cloudless sky caused the trees, stripped of their summer attire, to cast skeleton-like shadows on the snow. A death-like silence reigned everywhere; there was only an occasional murmur as the chill wind whistled through the barren trees. Suddenly, a shot rang out, hideously crashing through the silent night air. As the sound of the shot faded into stillness, a dog at the rear of the stately Wycliff mansion seated on his haunches, his face turned upward, a pitiful expression in his eyes, gave a weird howl. The dog’s howling conveyed the news to those superstitous people who had been awakened by the shot, that death had penetrated into their community. Marshal John Kaer, Dover’s sole officer of the law, who lived next door to the Wvcliff’s realizing that the shooting had occurred close to his home, reluctantly left his comfortable bed to answer the call of duty. In a moment the marshal, hatless and scantily clad, an old fashion revolver gripped firmly in his right hand, set forth into the night in the direction of the mansion. Slowly and stealthily he made his way toward the stately home, his head now turning this way and now that, ever alert for the unexpected. His search was not long in being rewarded, for, upon reaching a point about fifty feet east of the house, as he peered from behind a tree, he saw a figure stooping over a lifeless form, lying on. the snow. He was startled. A chill played up and down his spine. Were his eyes deceiving him? As he looked again he know they were not; he saw the stooping figure barely move. Unconsciously he looked back across the spacious snow-covered grounds that separated his home from the Wycliff’s. His first impulse was to retreat. In a few moments he would be safe at his fireside and no one would ever know. He had grown old in the service of the village. He doubted if he had the physical ability for an encounter with a killer. And then another picture flashed vividly before him. Suppose he should capture the killer? He would be hailed as a hero. He saw himself on the day following the capture, standing in the town hall, encircled by his less renowned brethren who listened with mouths agape and eyes filled with admiration as he narrated in dramatic tones the story of that memorable night. The picture of this long sought for fame was too much for the marshal and in a moment he was out in the open again, cautiously creeping toward another tree, standing a short distance from the house, but a few feet from the scene of the horrid crime. He had covered about one half the distance when, gazing at the gun which he held conspicuously before him at arm’s length pointing at the stooping figure, he tried to recall whether or not he had loaded it. Was it loaded? He could not remember. If the gun were empty and the killer spied him, he would undoubtedly suffer a fate similar to that of the lifeless body lying before him in the snow. He was in the open; if he lost any time examining the gun he might be seen. This was no time for meditation, he could not retreat safely so he moved rapidly toward a tree. Those few feet seemed like a Page one hundred eleven DOI eR 19a6 CRI SOn GR6Y t '-'V r thousand miles. Finally, he arrived at his objective and stood erect behind its shelter. Opening the gun he breathed a deep sigh of relief as it was loaded. Quietly he raised the hammer of his flintlock and looked around the tree. The sight made him shudder. Before him lay William Wycliff—murdered. The body lay but twelve or fifteen feet from where the marshal was standing. Beside and around WyclifFs head the snow was darkened, evidently by blood. The trampled snow around about the body gave evidence that a terrible fight had followed before the dead man was over-powered. The killer was now standing erect, he held in his hand a paper which he was endeavoring to read by the light of the moon. He had his back turned to the marshal and in a moment tossed the paper away. Again he stooped over the body and hastily searched the dead man’s pockets. The marshal knew this was his only chance; he must capture the slayer by surprise. He decided to go within four or five feet of the murdered and command him to raise his hands. He had just stepped forth when the alarming notes of the village firebell rent the air. The slayer, startled, standing erect and half turning saw the marshal. He sprang toward the officer like a tiger surprised at his kill. John Kaer tried to pull the trigger of his gun, but his finger was as if paralyzed. Again and again in that brief space of time, his mind flashed the command to his finger but each time it refused to respond. lie was helpless. The slayer grabbed him by the throat, choking and shaking him violently as the sound of the ringing bell seemed to come nearer and clearer. Marshal John Kaer awoke with a jerk. As he .opened his eyes, his wife ceased shaking him, and sharply commanded that he arise immediately. On a stand beside his bed his alarm clock was melodiously holding forth. As the marshal arose to shut it off he thought how nice it was to be safe in one’s own home. “Lo Jim”. “This is a rotten School ain’t it.” “Yeh no spirit.” “Nope, no spirit”. “None of the guys here know anything about school spirit.” “Nope the dumb nuts”. “Did you hear the rotten cheering at the game last night”. “Nope I didn’t go”. “Neither did I” “What’s the use no spirit.” “Nope no spirit.” “So long Bill” “So long Jim”.
