First, the new building was ready for use: and second, the CTOBER R, 1923, was the beginning of a red letter period at Wichita High School - future seniors of 1926 graced the school with their presence as sophomores. - The whole school had a rather unique experience in going to school on Satur- day to make up the time lost in opening school one month late. When the building was completely finished, the sophomores met in the auditorium and discovered that they were the largest class ever enrolled in W. H. S. It had approximately twelve hundred members. Robert Bell was chosen president to guide them through the remaining terrors of the' first year. The class was fortunate in that the seniors were lost just as easily as the sophomores in the uncompleted building. On Field Day, the sophomores were equally divided between the juniors and seniors and, because of their help, the 1924 seniors were able to win that year. V The next fall, school opened with just one difference-the sophomores were iuniors. They looked with pity at the poor sophomores and with awe at the seniors. This year, Howard Fullington was elected president. The class was well represented in every line of activity from music to football. Two members of the class, Howard Fullington and George McCormick, were on the team that won the national basket ball championship of 1925. On Field Day, the expectations of the seniors were sadly upset by the victory of the juniors This was considered the climax of an ex- cellent year. Last fall the same students entered school hardly realizing that they were the seniors. At the class election, Howard was re-elected for president. During the first three months, everyone was busy with chemistry. American history, and other enlight- ening subjects, but two weeks before Christmas, all forgot their studies for a night and went to the first senior party. One of the main attractions was a wedding, with Santa Claus as the groom. The identity of the bride had been kept secret. When at last they appeared, Santa Claus was found to be Mr. Brooks, and his blushing bride, Uncle Benny. Most of the seniors recovered from this in time to enjoy the holi- days. ' February 12, besides being Lincoln's birthday and the day of the Newton- VN'ichita game, was rube day. All the dignified seniors blossomed forth in aprons and overalls. Every one enjoyed it, even the sophs, because the seniors didn't seem so much older and wiser than they. That day marked the beginning of the senior activities. On February 19, they held a Martha Washington party. There was a larger attendance at this party than at the Christmas party. Girls, dressed in Martha Washington costumes, served refreshments. The seniors are planning many more things before graduation. There will be Senior Day, the picnic, Class Day, the senior play, the banquet, and Field Day. The class of '26 is the first class to take its full course of three years in the new XV. H. S. and they are justly proud of it. This class, also, is the largest class to ever graduate from Wichita High School.

H. S.. whose custom it was to marry each day a beautiful senior princess. and then to cut off her head. Fear reigned among the small number of girls left. and each planned a way to save herself. The day Agnes was called. she took the King to the cafeteria, and there he feasted upon quantities of chicken pie. ice cream. cake, and maple nut molds. King, begged Agnes, when Philip had finished surely thou wilt take back thy terrible threat. VVretch. ctied Philip, l shall have thee killed. Sylvia. a damsel with eyes like a gaZelle's, promised King Philip that she would prepare his great mathe- matical documents. and thus save him endless labor. Alas! He would not listen. Her head was severed. Edith, nothing daunted, promised to beguile the hours for him by performing stunts learned while she lived in the Land of Gymnasium. Philip only yawned and ordered the slaves to kill her. Louise, sobbing bitterly, was called next. O mer- ciful one. wailed she. wilt thou travel with me to a land where beautiful music may be heard? lt is a new land, called New Band Room Land. No, roared the King, and he called his Vizier, Berton, and ordered him to drown her in boiling oil. YN , . Bring another senior, ordered Philip the next day, and Gladys was dragged in. That maiden, par- alyzed with fear, uttered no sound. When she heard the king order her to be killed. she began weeping and drowned herself in her own tears. Master, said Mildred. if thou wilt spare my life I shall give our basket ball team a magic food to make them grow taller. Then they shall defeat the mighty Newton tribe. Thou almost persuadest me, replied the man. No, thou. too, shalt die. Now there remained only two senior girls in this kingdom. If thou wilt do as I say, said Virginia, to Lucille, we shall both live for many years. To this Lucille consented. When the King sent for Virginia, she asked, My lord. may I bid farewell to my sister? Granted, he answered. My sister, said Lucille, when they had bade each other goodbye, v.'on't you tell me some strange tale. a story about the people in that land of W. H. S.? They gained the consent of the King. and thus, on the first night of the thousand and one. Virginia be- gan her stories.

Now it happened that he had three wives, two of them, Helen and Berda. had from long association with him also gained the love of sleep, but his wife. Marie, was more active and would sit third up half the night playing wierd, terrible imusic. XVretchY thought the sleep lovers, 'Uwe will be rid of thee and thy music. Verily, Frances shall carry thee away where we shall not see nor hear thee more. But luckily Lola, Marie's maid, divined their evil thoughts and to save her mistress brought the case before the enchantress who lived on the hill. The enchantress had three heads. The first was named Vivian, the second Ruth, and the third Edna, and indeed. she knew three times as much as any other enchantress. She gave Lola a drug to put in the tea of th Emperor and his two wives. Oh! reader, you Page Twenty-two are probably desirous of knowing what this drug did to them. Verily, it made them always hungry. Truly, Emperor Leslie ate up all the hot cakes in the while Berda and Helen ate equal amounts and fruit salad. In all truth, Edward, the swiftest runner in the empire, was kept busy serving them, Then were they miserable. We must have sleep and rest, they wailed, but they could have empire of pie neither while they ate or Marie played. Nearly ready to die in despair they appealed to the enchantress, who, having compassion on them said: I will free thee. but hereafter thou shalt sleep only twelve hours each day. Thou art good. they cried, we would gladly do as thou commandest, but how shall we sleep when Marie plays both day and night? From now on she shall play only from sunrise until sun- set, directed the enchantress. This arrangement was forthwith adopted and all lived peacefully thereafter. , fr. - Wa!

Far off in a remote corner of this land in the city of 500, Queen Pearlanna ruled her little kingdom with great wisdom. The king was constantly waging war upon the smaller cities, for the sole purpose of conquest, but he had never succeeded in capturing them. No matter when he made the attack. they were always in arms and ready for battle. The King had four wives, Thelma Irene. Blanch, Gladys, and Miargaret, and he decided that they were betraying his plans, so he had them put to death. Then he made ready to attack the city of 209 and take the beautiful maiden Dorothy, captive. But again he found them ready for battle. The king was very angry and summoning his greatest warriors. Rowland and Edwin. spoke thus, Disguise thyselves and go forth into every city in the land until you find in which one dwells my betrayerf' Thus the soldiers went forth. each in a different direction. After many days Rowland came to the city of 509 where he met the queen's daughter, Princess Thelma. She immediately fell in love with him and told him the secrets for which he was seeking. I-lastening back to 204 he said unto King Ralph, ln the city of 509 dwells your betrayer, Queen Pearlanna, who, aided by her fairy godmother. has been able to discover thy plans each day, and every Thursday morning in a paper called the Messenger, she imparts them to all the cities of the kingdoms. On the following Thursday morning the king attacked the queen's city and because her subjects were gone out of the kingdom, delivering the papers unto the other cities, she could offer no resistance and so was taken captive. The king ordered her put to death, but when he gazed upon her beautiful auburn hair, he decided to make her his wife instead. They died many years ago. but now Prince Row- land and Princess Thelma are married and carrying on the work begun by Queen Pearlanna. If you doubt my story, go to any city in the land of Wichita High School on any Thursday morning and you will see every person reading his copy of the famous old paper, The Messenger.

Ethel, came to' Queen Helen's court in the gym office and addressed her as follows: Oh. mistress, I possess some wonderful flying rings.

The rings were installed and used imme- diately by Louise, Marcia Bradford and Marcia Bow- dish. Simultaneously, another magacian, Bernice, ap- peared in King Howard's court. She had a leather horse on which, she said, they could perform marvelous stunts. ln return for the use of the horse, she asked a place on the football team. King Howard consented. and ordered Asa, Oscar, and Emerson to begin prac- ticing. Page Twenty-four At the contest Queen Helen's team performed suc- cessfully. Then King Howard brought forth the leather horse. This surprised the opponents. While Emerson was doing a difficult stunt, his foot hit a little crank underneath the horse. The horse rose into the air carrying Emerson along. As it passed into the hall, angry King Howard had Bernice locked in the store room until the horse should return. Out in the hall Emerson tried to stop the horse. Failing in this, he noticed the country around him. There were math and history villages, the well-known library village, more history villages, and those of chemistry and English. At last the horse hit a wall. knocking Emerson off. There he lay until morning. unconscious. Regaining consciousness. he found that he was in the tower where, it was said, Caliph Brooks im- prisoned the wrongdoers 09 his kingdom. With much effort Emerson led the horse home. The King was overjoyed at his return, and ordered a great celebration at which Bernice was released, and she explained how the crank on the horse worked. To this day, O reader, if you will go to W. H. S. you will find that this horse and many others like it are used in the Village of Gymnasium. , , . . -X - 'Vg Q N ..

The Golden Chariot Joy and Happiness reigned in W. H .S., for first, the beloved team was going to play Wellington and second, Sultan Truesdell was going to take a group of students over in his well known Golden Chariot. Of course, everyone wanted to go with the sultan and ride in his chariot, but because of lack of room. Martha, Richard. Cleland. Verres, Glydia, and Paul were the only lucky ones. Now the Brown sisters, Eleanor, Helen Cordelia, Velma. and Helen Cornelia. were very angry. because they couldn't ride in this golden chariot. and decided to avenge themselves. As the game at VJellington started at 8:45, the favored few, who were to ride in the Golden Chariot, decided to start at six o'clock to get there in time. Then at the appointed hour. decked in blue and white, the happy party started out. But ere they had traversed ten miles. one of the chariot's tires decided it had worked hard enough in this life and accordingly fell and died at the side of the road. The party gasped. XWhat were they to do? Run on the rim. shouted the brilliant Cleland. So started the party again, but not quite enjoying the bump. bump of the chariot. Then knock-knock w went the engine. What is now wrong? cried the exasperated stu- dents. I want some oil, cried a bearing. And to their dismay they discovered they had burned out a bearing which meant fifteen miles at a limit. Oh, sobbed Verres. the game will be starting and I have a wager on. What shall we do? Chug-chug sounded down the highway behind them and along came a tin chariot at forty-Eve. Surprisedly, the disgruntled travelers looked up to behold the Brown sisters riding merrily along. The avenged sisters waved and rode on leaving the disappointed pleasure seekers sitting in the middle of the road. By Allah, cried the sultan, If' we ever return to the palace I shall at once purchase a tin chariot in place of a gold one. But truly this resolution in no way aided their plight and they were forced to sit there until returning chariots heralded the end of the game. A passerby kindly volunteered to pull in the disabled chariot and its occupants. And the next day the sultan purchased a tin chariot.

Now in this same village there lived a poor peasant, John Humphrey. who was greatly in love with the Sultan Albert's daughter. But being a man of small means and low rank he could not try to gain her favor. One morning a great thundering announced the arrival of the dreaded guest. He stood on a nearby hill and in a voice that re-echoed many times he roared: Bring to me the Princes Ailene and her maids, Lillian and Lorna. that I may cut off their heads. l will destroy your city if you disobey me. And with a mighty roar he settled himself to wait for them. Vklhen the people heard this there was great sorrow and the Sultan Albert went to the Genie Antonio and said: O mighty Genie. give the maidens one wish before they die. They wish to find a champion to fight for them and if you are overcome they are to live. Granted, leered the Genie, roaring, Let their champions come. I will smash them with one hand. All the people gathered at the foot of the hill when the Genie roared: Page Twenty-six . -.pf A -g .. Bring to me thy first champion. And as Lorna was brought forward. the brave slave Carl went f'orward to light her cause. The strug- gle was short for the Genie kicked him into the Red Sea and he was drowned. So straightway the Genie Antonio cut off Lorna's head. Where is thy next? he shouted. As Lillian was brought forward her slave, Harold. went to fight the Genie. But he was thrown to the four winds of the heavens, and the Genie smashed Lillian into the ground. Next, roared the Genie, and as Princess Ailene was brought forward a maiden begged to take her place and brave John went to iight. But the Genie Antonio blew him away and twisted Marie into two pieces. Princess Ailene was again brought forward, and John Humphrey, the poor peasant. came forward to combat the Genie. He drew his spear and ran quickly by the Genie and as he passed he drove his spear thru the heart of the huge Antonio who fell heavily to the ground. There was great rejoicing, and the peasant John was elevated to the position of Grand Vizier, where he easily won the hand of the fair Princess Ailene. 41 N . X s ' 1 W t .

Margaret. the most beautiful palace ever seen. She had everything a maiden's heart could desire and was entertained daily by a most accomplished dancer. Evelyn. and the best musician in the country, Nancy. Her two brothers. Jack and Vin- cent, carried out every wish of their sister's in order that she might be happy. Now Corinne. the daughter of Harland's trusty vizier, John. was intensely jealous of Margaret, because of her new palace and many riches. So one day, when the princess was teaching social English to the subjects of the kingdom. in order that they might know how to conduct themselves, she asked Corinne if she did not think her palace was beautiful. Corinne jealously replied: O princess. your house lacks the one priceless treasure which will render it incomparable. What is this rarity? asked Margaret, I must have it at once. But Corinne refused to answer, and the princess grew thin and wan from worrying over the fact that something was lacking in her palace. The Sultan orclered his sorceress, Vera, to tell him what was wrong with Margaret and by the use of magic, Vera discovered that the princess was desirous of having the most pricesless treasure in the world. She reported this to the Sultan, Magnificent Sultan, this treasure is a maple nut mold with English walnuts. No matter how much of it is eaten, it never grows smaller, but will last for- ever. It is guarded in the cafeteria by a wicked cook. Elizabeth, who hates all mankind. None, who have tried, have been successful in gaining this mold for they have always been deceived into taking a false mold nlled with peanuts. Jack and Vincent resolved to get this rarity for Accord- their sister for they feared that she might die. ingly. they made their way to the cook's cafeteria. Elizabeth pretended to be glad to see them and offered them a false nut mold, but the boys would not be fooled. They seized the cook and bound her with ropes, then they took the real maple nut mold with them, and all in their sister's palace feasted on it for- evef.

The king had a particular liking for the name Elizabeth, and disap- pointed because he had never had a daughter. he decided that his son should have four wives before he could inherit the kingdom and these wives must all bear the name of Elizabeth. Prince Hayward was in love with a girl, Flo Ann. but so great was his ambition to become king that he went to her and without disclosing his reason said. Something of great moment has happened. I can not now make you my wife. He had only a fortnight in which to accomplish his purpose and secure the crown, so straightway he sought for maidens bearing the name of Elizabeth. He found three and married them. but. Alas! not another by that name could be found in the kingdom. Page Twenty-eight Days passed: only one night remained but he had only three Wives. He summoned his servant Lucy and his counselors, Carter. Chapman, and Chastain and implored their help. but they could do nothing. At dawn he was overcome with despair and gave up all hopes of becoming king on the morrow. He resolved to go back to Flo Ann, who. after much coaxing, drew from him the story of his fathers whim. As he most humbly knelt to beg forgiveness, she laughed aloud. OT this is in truth a trick of the Gods, she whispered, for my name is lilo Ann Elizabeth. With great joy they returned to the palace and were married at sunrise. The king was greatly pleased and that day the Prince was crowned King Hayward. ruler of Persia. N t t M .' , f j'-e Y fm?

Speaking thus. she issued a call, and there appeared a whole army of efrits, who immediately fell to work shining the trophies. At five minutes before the appointed time Bonita was before the prince, and when he heard her story his good humor was so completely restored that he rewarded her richly. Page Twentyrnine if ..

The Pies of Harran 1 ,ii J. ' l. ' J, ln the city of Harran, there once lived the King Anna Mae Garvie, for her receipydfmz butterscotich pie. Max who had every thing which life and fortune could bestow, and also a great passion for pie. Now the king had been absent from his country for some time. and the people, being loving subjects, were desirous of doing something which would please him and celebrate his return. The Grand Vizier, Edwin. remembering the king's liking for pastries, pro- claimed that every one should make a pie, and which ever pie. when presented before the king, should gain his favor, to the creator should go a thousand pieces of gold. Every one started to work on the royal pie. Mae thought she had a plan outlined in her mind whereby she was sure of winning the prize. Adelaide, Elva. Helen, Blanche and Dorothy all were sure they would win the gold pieces with their pies. In a far off corner of the bazaar there was a little stall where very good pastries were sold by C. J. She wanted to enter into the contest but all the others were working on such a lavish scale she dared not try to compete. One night there appeared to her. in her sleep, an old woman who told her to go to the court of King Brooks, in the land of Wichita High School, and there ask the Commander of the Kitchen. Miss Page Thirty ,f.!,.,' . x XM: N . W ,K I and follow the directions given. -. On the day of the king's return. every thing was staged for a big procession, when the pies would be carried before the king. Now it happened that his Majesty had started very early in the day on his jour- ney and it was about mid-afternoon and he had not tasted flood since morning. As the pies began to pass. he grew impatient for he saw that there was not one edible in the collection. Large floats passed him with large paste board pies of all sorts, some out of which, maidens appeared and sang to him or danced. All kinds of pies were there. but none to eat. The king grew very angry and more hungry every minute. At last the Vizier appeared and announced that the procession had passed, except for one small pie which was not worth counting, but the king being kind ordered it to be brought forth. C. J. appeared with her pie. The king ate thereof, and she was proclaimed winner of the thousand gold pieces. He also made her Com- mander of the Kitchen and they lived happily ever- after. lf one should go the city of Harran today he could still hear of how C. J. baked butterscotch pies after the fashion of' Miss Anna Mae Garvie. I ' , ni V. ,lim , xg . N 'i Vg A ,pq-,. X 5, . 4 N .,-. .. . rx. .A 4 . '1 gf. E' - ' .f na 1 N l , T, ' - 4 .

H. S.. there was a noisy yell leader, Whitney. who had an overwhelming passion for economics. His friend, Beverly, was very much interested in American history. Whitney couldn't get Beverly to see the importance of economics. In de- spair, he took Hartley, his assistant, and I.ois, Beverly's friend, into his conhdence, asking what he could do about it. After thinking a while Hartley said. My friend, I have heard of a wonderful man who aspires to be sultan of Turkey. It seems that he talks politics morning. noon, and night. I think he could convince her if anyone could. Immediately, Whitney sent William, his best run- ner. after the politician whose name was Davis. William soon found Donald Davis in the faraway land of entrancing music, 121. where all the inhabi- rants were sentenced to make perpetual harmony, and brought him back. After Whitney talked with him awhile he saw that the only thing Don was interested in was music, so he condemned him to play the pipe organ for fifty years. Next, William brought in Forrest Davis. To his grief, the yell leader found that all Forrest could talk about was squares, triangles, and circles. He was sentenced to give extemporaneous speeches on mathe- matics in every assembly for forty years. Dick Davis was brought in next. Since he was interested in commercial law only. he was told to explain it to Mr. Miller's classes until his hair turned grey. Clifford Davis, when he was brought in, said he had never had the pleasure of taking economics, but he had conceived a great desire to take it, although 202 was in a far distant country. Whitney was impatient by this time and threat- ened to behead William if he brought in the wrong Davis next. Then William searched far and wide and finally brought in Warren Davis. When Warren was brought before Beverly, she threw up her hands and exclaimed, I retract my objections to economics. You are greatly endowed by Allah with the power of fluent speech, so I beg of you, do not elucidate here.

Now Coah possessed a restless nature and so became tired of his quiet uneventful life in 204 and decided to venture forth into the many cities of the land in quest of excitement. Thus. when the vice-regent of 204 was absent from the city. he slipped away without a leave of absence and started on his journey. Ere long he came to the city of 215. Peering in through the gate he beheld a real skeleton and several skulls and large bones. Surely, this must be an interesting city, exclaimed Coah. l will go in and amuse myself. So he opened the door and wandered in. He recognized several of' his friends. Charles. Walter, and Mendal. but before he could begin examining the curious things. Sultan M.acy approached him and said, What brings ye here. wretch. and where is your passport? Of course he had none so he was f'orced to leave. On, he walked and Hnally came to the city called Office Here he found a blank passport so he signed it himself and decided that when next he desired to enter a city he could not be barred.

Vice-regent Smith approached him and said, What brings ye here. wretch. and where is thy passport? Triumphantly Coah presented his passport. The Vice-regent examined it and, upon seeing the false signature, walked over to a black instrument on the wall and. talking into it. asked that Sultan Brooks send ofiicers to her. Edward and Earl arrived and took him to 205 for ten days. When at last he was released he hurried back lu 204. There he was met by his friends. Where have you been, Coah? they cried. Why, you have missed our party and the refreshments are all gone. Over- come.

James, and Milbourn were returning from foreign lands with news for the people of the city. When the Magicians arrived they called the people to them and Kenneth said: People, I come from a land where lives the wise Sultan Brooks, who knows the secret of success and rewards all who reach his province with pieces of parchment inscribed with magic words. All who start do not reach their destination. But those who gain the gifts are admitted to large and wonderful palaces. My aides, Marie and Gaynell, Princesses of the Land and Sea. will conduct you there. So they started on a journey that was to last three years. They came to a wide, bottomless River of Lazi- ness. Onxts banks lay the bones of people who had perished in times gone by. The princesses Marie and Gaynell began to swim across. The others floundered in-all except Neva and Melba, who couldn't swim and had to float over. Several were drowned never to be heard of' more. When they reached the other side, Marie and Gaynell summoned them together, and the journey was resumed. Soon they came to the Sea of Matrimony, and in a short time a terriffic storm overtook them. A few were lost, but the others journeyed on. About a year later, having overcome countless dangers, the party of adventurers approached the mighty Sea of Discouragement, in which lurked furious serpents that waited to devour any who might venture to come near. Come, cried Gaynell and Marie, and they set sail on the dangerous waters. Several weeks later the boats emerged from those horrors. Next they came to the beautiful city of W. H. S. in the Land of Enlightenment. On the shores stood Sultan Brooks ready to receive them. When they landed he spoke thus: Friends, you are welcome and for the courage you have shown I shall tell you the secret of your success. Come with me. He turned and his faithful slaves, Helen, Carol and Elizabeth, made sweet music on saxophones and the group marched down to a huge rock. Having studied hard, cried the Sultan Brooks. At this command a door in the rock opened. and he led them in. On the inside of the rock, they passed by the sultan and as they went by he handed each one the wonderf'ul piece of parchment inscribed with the magic lines, for which they had struggled so long.

Allow us to give them titles that will go down on the pages of history. quoth Richard. Truly. all thought this a splendid idea. and it was carried out with great ceremony. Solemnly Sultan Young callezl each player forward and bestowed on him a Htting title. Eugene was knighted Bird. Rohert was called Red. Floyd received the title of Flick. and Claude was titled Freeze: but when the Sultan came to Howard he had run out of titles. so he paused. What name can be worthy of this nohle man who is captain of our team? he asked. There was silence in the assemblage. then. 'ilvliss Wichita! roared some one in the audience. Ay. they all shouted.

He planned to conquer the whole land from lOl to 500. One day he met in battle Emperor Hunter, and Hunter killed him. As Frank was dying. he cursed the genie who had caused his untimely end. The genie. enraged at this. enchanted the emperors twin sons. Jerry and l.ouis, in such a way that the one who arose nrst in the morning controlled the conversation llor the rest of the day. lt happened that one day when Louis arose earliest Jerry decided to go visit the various parts of the king- dom. He chanced to be passing by 205 and heard a terrible commotion, Drawing his scimitar he entered, He saw several people in front of the palace fighting to get library slips signed first. Going to the crowd he asked one, limery by name, why they were nghting. limery told him that the Princess Glorene was searching for the most unique incident that had happened to any one, The one whose experience was the most interesting she would give A's to for the rest of the semester. This was why. Emery said, that these people were fighting for slips to gain entrance into the palace of the princess. Jerry thinking of his own predica- ment decided to go before her. He obtained a slip and entered. Pauline, Gerald, Potter, and Sadie were there before him, however, but after hours of waiting Jerry was called. Oh, Princess, he began, l will tell thee of a strange thing that has befallen myself and my brother. We are enchanted so that-Gee isn't this chicken pie keen, l'm so hungry I could Cat two pieces. What dost thou mean? questioned the princess. I was telling thee of the spell my brother and l am under, he replied. Vile are enchanted so that the one who arises first in the morning controls the conversation for the rest of the day-One of my own proctors arrested me today. and threw me in 205: ain't that hot? This is indeed odd, said the Princess. lt is by far the most unique incident l have yet heard of. To you goes the gift of the A's. Jerry. overjoyed, hurried to tell Louis the news. Both rejoiced over his good fortune and the angry genie. seeing that he could no longer control their destinies, faded into the background and grieved himself to death. At this, the brothers were freed f'rom the genie's enchantment. and all dwelt happily thereafter. Page 'l'liirl y Eve 5 ,. 1. , y . t X la.. 'fe-Q-tw. V' 3 . fy A1-.X x , Lf ,.

If they fail, they will be guillotined. My sister Margaret and Councelor Eugene will help decide upon the best contribution. In vain the whole court pleaded with the king but to no avail. The sharpening of knives announced the appointed day. Gladys Hammer was first to be brought before the much feared king. She decided to ice skate for him and ordered a block of ice to perform on. This happened to be a very warm day and the ice melted so quickly that she couldn't perform her feat. and her head was gently removed. Jackson decided to demonstrate socker and explain its everlasting possibilities. However, he hit the ball so hard he broke his toe and to make matters worse his Page Thirtyrsix head. too, was removed, Allen and Gladys Gresham were likewise tried and convicted. The king was in despair for he realized he possessed the least intelligent court in the country. But then, the page Raymond rushed in with a queer looking box and told the depressed king he had a contribution that would live forever. Then he began twisting knobs. and listening intently. Yes, replied the sarcastic king, that is a won- derful thing. Er-squak-whiz, went the box. Take him away, cried the wrathful King Orlan. But then this wonderful box began to talk saying. Stand aside please, this is station W. H. S. broad- casting the morning bulletin. By Allah, cried the king, 'ithat is marvelous. XX'hat is it? A radio. responded the exultant page.

A loud voice pierced the air crying, Bring me my favorite food and entertain me at once, for I know I am going to die. This, my readers. was the voice of King John, the chronic complainer. The vizier, Thomas, hesitatingly asked the chronic complainer his favorite f'ood. O, I don't know but bring it. But, how can I- Don't argue, interrupted the king, but fetch magician Everett before I pass away.

Helen and Louise, with his permanent marcel. Then entered Janice Hatfield and Alberdine who tried to distract the king's thoughts with piano and song. but to no avail. In the meantime, King John, still complaining that he was just as good as dead, issued a proclamation declaring the day of his funeral. Just then vizier C. V. heard a rumor ,V . . n .t . . that Sir Lloyd, a life :Ru was in the castle, and was impatient to save lives. John decided to givc him a chance. Lloyd, the modest life saver, appeared, but told the king that he couldn't save his life unless he were drowning. What, shouted the king, do I have to drown, too, before I die? You must want to shorten my already too brief life,-but take me to the pool. Wait, your majesty, replied the blushing life saver, I must first don my life saving suit, in order to accomplish this feat. When all was in readiness the king, with a sigh, jumped into the cruel waters and Sir Lloyd gracefully plunged in after him. King John was so over joyed at being saved from death that he forgot his com- plaints and comamnded that a subject be pushed into the pool every day in order that he might watch them rescued. Janice Hayden was the first victim, and to this day, if one were to visit this palace. he would see King John intently watching Sir Lloyd rescue his victims.

To the one that found the most unusual quotation, he offered an Orthophonic Edition of The XVichita Way. Accordingly. everyone began searching thru all the hooks in the kingdom for the most unusual quotation. At the end of eight months' time all of the subjects met in the sultan's assembly room to offer the results oti their search. As Dale came into the room, he asked of the courtier, Alexander. Is the sultan in very good humor today? You'd he surprised, spoke up Helen, as she strolled into the room. Soon Vera and Eleanore started playing Long I.ive the Sultan. as the latter walked slowly in. The sultan called the people to order and at once began listening to the various quotations. Soon six hours Pagt Thirty-eight had passed and the sultan had not yet accepted any quotation. Ruth said: Your Majesty, I found the quotation, To the victors belong the spoils. Harry I-Ierrman said, 'If you're so smart, why aren't you rich?' is the quotation I have to offer. Com- mander of the Faithful. A'These are all fairly good, said the sultan Claude. but I have not yet heard one that pleaseth me entirely. Just then a messenger. Roy, came running up to the sultan. saying: Commander of' the Iiaithful, your loyal suhject, Richard, was ill, and therefore unable to come, but he sent his quotation by me. And what may it be? asked the sultan. Said Roy: 'Alt is, 'Only the brave deserve th-r fair, and only the brave can live with them.' Excellent! exclaimed the sultan. You may deliver the Orthophonic Edition of 'The Wichita Way' to Richard. t H4 r, X f .-yn: Ie if , I 'Af' Y ,wb x A., , ' 'V Tqixx I' if I -six ,fn Q . ff , . +3 A' -1 . 1 l f,i:fs,. ua' Q 23,1-A-,'Tg5,'Ii l i' f, . ,L - xx .ny P, :tx A W JN rx r ly ig 2 R fy., tx . t,f kv-5 t- . ffl? rl? so at t t In .I I . l- News l?xAfL?f?W1'svcai emit it ea- fy.

Now it happened that one week when he had sent his reporters forth they did not return at the accustomed time. Hours passed. and only a short time was left in which news could be accepted and sent to the printer. Robert was greatly distressed and so decided to send forth messengers to find them. So he summoned Alva. Chester. Harry, and Ruth and bade them go forth and search. For hours he waited. but no word came from the messengers. He still had two more helpers in his city so he summoned them and sent them out to find the reporters and bring them back. When they had gone. Robert paced the floor. trying in vain to imagine what the trouble could be. For hours he waited. and when his last messengers did not return, he decided to go himself and find them. So be closed the gates of the city and hastened forth to the other cities to find his reporters. Every city he entered was deserted. Not a person could be seen. Robert was puzzled and knew not where to go. Suddenly in the distance near the south of the city of Cafeteria he heard voices laughing and shouting. HI am next. I.et me go this time. lt's my turn. Isn't there room f'or one more? Quit pushing me back. The king was filled with wonder and hastened toward the place from which the voices came. As he drew near, he saw his reporters, Harlan, Lyman. lVl.ar- garet, Dorothy. and Marguerite, and the messengers he had sent to find them, and scattered on the ground were fragments of the news they had sought. But the news had been forgotten, for all the people in the kingdom were busy riding in a new device that had just been perfected-a freight elevator. Page Thirty nine l' , .

Jackson Seward William Jackson Vermeda Mae Jackson Iimma Janzen The Great Epidemic In the Province 205, in the land of W. H. S., the usual good order had been disturbed. An epidemic of whooping cough had attacked that mighty province. It had apparently been started by Seward, a wealthy citizen of the land, for one day he had begun coughing. And much to the alarm of the Vice-regent Hatton, it appeared catching, since almost everyone else in the province began whooping after she told Seward he might have some of the kingdom's magic water, to be found just outside the province, and guarded by the fairy, Vermeda. At the same time that cases began multiplying. requests began pouring in for permission to go in search of the magic water. At this, the Vice-regent became more and more alarmed, for, what was to be done-she could not let all the people in the province go in search of the magic water. At last, it was very apparent that everyone in the kingdom had the dreaded disease. The Vice-regent Hatton began to question several of the subjects. She said to Frances: When didst thou contract this disease? While making cornbreadf' replied Frances. So did my grandmother, spoke up Louise. Nly word, said Kathryn. Goodness, child! exclaimed Josephine. The Vice-regent then said, Garnett, whence cam- est thou by this disease? I don't believe I can answer, replied Garnett. Oh grapes, said Emma. Now it happened at this time that the great Sultan Brooks, the ruler of' all the land of W. H. S.. with his attendants, Robert and Tom, came to visit the Province 205, and wonder of wonders, the whooping cough epidemic suddenly disappeared. To this day, the Vice-Regent Hatton does not know what the sudden cure was, but if you ask the subjects of the Province 205, I believe they can tell you.

H. S., and no one could dis- suade him from the melancholy into which he had fallen. His vizier. Max, exclaimed one day, I am dis- tressed to the highest degree to see you in this con- dition. Cease your grieving and let us start on our journey for strange lands. Alas, sighed the Prince, as be clasped his hands with resignation. but I lack the bags of gold I require for such an undertaking. As he joined his hands together he rubbed the locker key which he held. and there came from it a cloud of smoke at which they wondered excessively. After a while the smoke collected together and was con- verted into an efrit, Aileen. What wouldst thou, my lord? I am ready to serve thee. They were exceedingly frightened at her appear- ance, but the Prince soon recovered his poise and exclaimed, Transport me and my grand vizier to the land where fair maids dwell! They immediately felt themselves carried away. They saw before them a magnificent room filled Ki' X , . X 1 ' . . , N, . X il. A I an P I1 'xg . X - to overflowing with the most beautiful maidens ever gazed upon. Princess Peggy, whose brown eyes and hair were wonderful to behold, was dancing to soft strains of music. The Prince and Vizier stood spell- bound by her matchless beauty and grace. Ida lVLay was just doing a perfect swan dive when the Prince saw her. What a Venus! he breathed, as he watched. Princess Faye feasted her lovely blue eyes upon a piece of chicken pie, and with the exclamation, Good heavens, stabbed the slave who started to take it away. A beautiful brunette, Sara, stood near singing Down by the Old Mill Stream, and as the sounds of her melodious voice rippled toward the visitors, the Prince clasped his head as if he had been struck. Helen Harriet, a lovely maiden. was curled on a stack of pillows reading an Advanced Algebra book. Prince Leroy was overcome by the splendor of the scene, and fell fainting to the floor. From somewhere appeared two beautiful blondes, Margaret and Dorothy. who cried, My lord, you are weary and must rest! Yes, replied Leroy, I do need rest, but I shall dwell in this land forever.

One year the Sultan Sterl decided that those that got the best stations would be appointed to his Honor- able Society' and have their names heralded throughout the land.

On one Thursday morning, James. a servant to the Queen in the city of 509, took his place among the vast throng and waited for the program to begin. As he waited he become drowsy and at last fell into a deep slumber. All during the lecture he slept on. and as he slept he had a great vision. He was in the land of Persia, seated upon a high throne on cushions of richest silk. and ruling his people with a mighty hand. Around him knelt many servants and as he observed them closely he recognized among them, Louis, Merle, and Joe and his pride was made greater at this sight for at last he was being worshipped and not ignored. Tapping a bell of gold at his elbow three maids. Gladys, Sylvia, and Merrill appeared and once more his chest swelled with pride. He waged wars and conquered many kingdoms. and gold flourished in his palace. At last he decided to attack a city in an adjoining kingdom and capture a beautiful Princess Genevieve who lived there. Call- ing in his warriors, John and Edgar. he bade them enter battle. For days they fought but at last the city was overcome and the princess brought hack to the Kings palace. She immediately fell in love with him and he ordered a great wedding feast to be pre- pared. Just as the ceremony was about to be performed, King James was awakened with a start. The throne. the cushions of silk, the princess, and the splendor had vanished. Only a hard wooden Seat remained and in the distance a familiar voice was saying. Report to your Hrst period classes.

One day Khaleefeh Henry and his vizier. John. saw a man weeping. Approaching him, Henry asked. O sheykh, what is they occupation? My master, I am a fisherman, replied Floyd, I went forth from my house at noon, and have remained until now, but have obtained no food for my household: therefore, I have hated myself and wished for death. Then answered Henry, Wilt thou return to the river. and cast thy net for my luck? I shall purchase of thee whatever thou drawest up. The nsherman rejoiced when he heard these words. and returned to the river and cast his net. Having waited until it sank, he dragged back the net. and there came up in it a beautiful chest. Henry gave the fisherman two hundred pieces of gold, and he went away. The Khaleefeh and vizier broke open the chest and saw a damsel like molten gold, killed and cut to pieces. On the top of the chest were inscribed the words. O Lida Lot, she lied a lot. When Henry beheld this, tears ran down his cheeks, and he exclaimed, I must retaliate for this damsel upon him who killed her and put him to death. I give thee three days in which to find the Page Forty-four murderer. If by then thou hast not found him. on the fourth thou shalt die. On the evening of the third day John returned with his captives Dorothy, Pearl, Helen and Mary. Each one declared. i'But we did not kill the damsel. Then find the murderers or you shall be put to death along with the vizier, roared the King. On the second day they returned bringing with them three beautiful maidens who wept and wrung their hands, Why did you kill that fairest of all fair maidens? asked Henry. Della said, Lida Lot revealed all our signals to Wellington. To protect us I helped to kill her. O Prince, cried Jessie. I also was there. Lida Lot helped Kingman instead of us. We wanted to revenge ourselves. Believe us, O my master, begged Margaret. Lida Lot tied the hands of our men when they played with Newton. To prevent our defeat we killed her. When Henry heard the story he believed them and immediately ordered them to be set free. But there is a story more wonderful than this which shall be told thee.

Now Howard had two lovely sisters. Helen and Jeannette, who were much annoyed by their brother's interest in chess. and determined to cure his of this malady. Accordingly. they left the palace one day and went to a powerful genie. Lawrence. who gave them a powder to put in the king's wine, which would make him sleep soundly for several hours. A ftew days later Howard challenged a neigh- boring king to a game of chess and went up to this room to determine upon his movements for the com- ing game. After seating himself on the throne at the end of the room he took a sip of the drink at his side which his sisters had prepared. and was astounded to see that the chessmen had come to life and were really some of his friends from W. H. S. N , The one nearest him spaghetti as fast as his mouth. Near him was designs in the air with an was Delano, who was eating fork would carry it to his Dorthea, who was drawing imaginary pencil and looking especially pleased at the results. In the far corner of the room was June, dancing wildly the Charleston to the music played by Carmen on a comb and pitch pipe. In the center a beautiful young lady, May Bell, sat writing stories and eating candy. Jewel. sitting close to the king, was signing softly and combing her hair. Suddenly King Howard determined to go down and speak to his friends. when he found himself sit- ting at the bottom of the steps where he had fallen in his haste. Picking himself up, he realized it had all been a dream and that instead of playing chess, he hence- forth determined to read about the rest of his friends in the Wichitan which he had not before realized could could be so interesting. To this day, dear reader. the chess room is boarded up and is slowly falling into ruin. Thus endeth the twenty-fifth night. Page Forty-Eve 'U t if X ltilil i. .NM .,.. . -. . . . .

Leland. of an adjoining kingdom, being bored with the simple life he had been leading, determined to set out into this strange land in quest of adventure. So he gathered his supplies together and arming him- self well. went forth. Ere long he came to the city called Soccer Field. He thought this was an unin- habited city. but, when he stood outside its walls a group of genii led by William, Dale. Clifford and Lloyd, and two monsters. Morris and George, rushed forth with a round object and began kicking it and fighting for it. VJhat is this thing that they are lighting for? exclaimed Leland, Surely it must be a treasure else they would not all be so eager to get it. By Allah. I will get it myself and take it back with me to my kingdom. Thus saying. he plunged into the crowd. seized the object, and ran away with it. The genii cried, 'Bring hack our ball, we want to play. But he would not heed. When he had run a great distance, he stopped to examine his treasure. He unlaced the strings and began to tear the case apart, but suddenly it collapsed. and there was nothing left but a piece of leather. Leland was very angry for having committed so great a blunder, so he started on his way once YUOYC. Pre long he came to the castle called Board of lfducation Shops. As he stood outside gazing at the great building he heard shooting within. By Allah! he exclaimed, Maybe a maiden is in danger. l will rescue her and win great honor. So he rushed wildly in and before he could draw his gun. three maidens, Katherine, Ethel, and Lois stood bel'ore him with immense guns leveled at his head. VVhat brings ye here? they asked. Leland was greatly frightened and told of his desire for adventure and how, when he had heard the shooting, he thought someone was in danger. Lois thought it all very amusing and answered, We were only having our weekly target practice, but. since your designs were good. come with me to my fathei-'s greatest castle, 'High Schoolf and thou shalt have all the adventures thou canst desire. So Leland went with her, and such thrilling times did he have, that he never returned to his native land, but dwelt in that vicinity forever.

They were the daughters of Sultan Harvey. who was so proud of them that he gave them anything they could de- sire. Especially did he provide them with tutors that they might widen their wealth of knowledge. He also had his gardener. Wade, prepare for them a most unusual treasure which had no equal in the world. It was called the Garden of Superior Wits. The maidens might wander about in it and gather fruits of knowledge. People came from far and wide to view its won- ders. Many of them would gladly have given their right eye for one taste of the fruits. ln a neighboring kingdom ruled Reva. who on hearing an account of this wonderf'ul garden. deter' mined to have some of the leaves of its singing tree to add to her entertainment. Accordingly, she sent Geneva after some. But Geneva was not careful enough. and was caught and sentenced to prison. Queen Reva. not to be hindered by this. sent a genie and an efrit, Allen and Maude, to get her some. These two. owing to their magic powers passed the guards safely. but they were unable to get any of the leaves without being seen by the four sisters. Maude then determined to lure them away. and changed her- self into a butterfly of happiness and invited them to catch her. The sisters at once jumped up to do so. and she flitted away just out of their reach and led them t ar away. Allen then picked a twig from the singing tree and took it to the queen, who at once had it planted. and soon a large tree grew from it. The King of XV. H. S. was enraged when he heard that he no longer had the only singing tree in the world. but was unable to do anything about it. But when his wrath had subsided he decided to give a branch of the tree to every high school in the land, and that is why each high school now has an orchestra.

However, the wicked genie, Hubert, in pronouncing this. remarked that if the prince failed to be discontended before this time. this sentence would have no effect. King Paul had sought everywhere for entertainers. Even the court jesters, Winston and Thomas, had failed in their pro- fession. The angry Prince Gordon, upon seeing the dusk approaching, cried to the king. See ye that I am still discontended, what do ye about it? My son, replied the king, I have done my best and the last to rely upon is the harem. Fetch them, cried the prince. Ilus was first to be brought to entertain the prince, but she was so interested in eating spaghetti that she got her song and spaghetti mixed and the song ended in a failure. Edith. the stately maiden, next appeared and started singing Early to Bed and Early to Risen- Take her away. shouted the discontented prince. Gwendolyn, the court's orator on flowers, tried to explain to Prince Gordon why this flower was blue and that one pink. The angry prince shouted that he didn't care about blue and pink flowers: it was the Page Forty-eight H ' . fx. .1 is z r' fr, .ft gs- . rapid approach of midnight that worried him. Just then Sir John rushed in and told the prince that he had seen one of the harem girls dancing a weird dance and that it might interest him. The prince at once called f'or her. Then entered Lucille, the dancer. The weary prince upon hearing her rhythmic steps. looked up and be- held Lucille dancing the-Charleston. By Allah, cried the interested prince, that is odd. Surely, my lord, so odd ye cannot do it. Fi, ye doubt I can do that? The bored but exasperated prince jumped up to do this fascinating step. Then Lucille began teaching the discontented prince this dance. Thus far into the night could be heard these remarks. No, my lord, this way. and always keep both feet twisting, in or out. By Allah, I will learn some time. And Prince Gordon's voice no longer bespoke discontent. Then the clock struck the hour of midnight and the angry genie slowly faded in the background. Hours later the tired but happy prince was surprised to find that he not only retained his head but has conquered the- Charleston. ,a , f , I ,. , ,L A. w . ., 4,3 X li N r X , i. . , x .

Frances. They had a beautiful home and yet they were not happy. At last the weary sister said: I am tired of this place. let us go forth to get an education. Accordingly. with two companions, Kyle and Gladys. they set forth on the high school road. They took supplies of Spanish buns, English crackers. scien- tiuc wines. a geography map. and some Latin ponies. Bravely they waded through test sloughs, and winded their ways about through labrynths of quizz questions. Despite these difficulties they made progress. After they had traveled many days they came to a cross road and saw an old man sitting on the corner. Who are thou, good man? and why sittest thou here? asked James. l am Hubert, he answered. I sit here to guide travelers the right way. Whither should we go, good man, to reach success? they asked him. Take the road to the right. but take care. for you will come to the last steep climb called Senior Hill. he replied. Here you must be careful for many temptations will await you from every side, but you must not dare to yield or look back. for you will never reach success, but will be turned to stone. l will send my daughter, Hope, as your guide. Fare- well, may Allah keep thee. They then went on. Hope leading the way, and soon came to the Hill. They commenced their climb but as the old man had said they were beset by many temptations. Gladys and Kyle dared once to look were instantly turned to stone. Thus behind and warned the others went on. They passed, on their way, many travelers who had been turned to stone. At last they reached the summit, and. were looking joyfully around when Harryet came forth to meet them, saying: - Your bravery hath saved the lives of many. take thee this post-graduate water and sprinkle it upon all the SIOHES that thou passed on thy way up the mountain and they shall be restored. This they did. and a great many travelers resumed their old forms, among them their two companions and also Francis and Thadine Mae. They then set to work and built a castle on the hill which Frances named Mount Castle. This castle continually throws forth light of encouragement for all travelers who seek success.

One day he announced to his four beautiful daughters, Audrey, Zoe, Elizabeth, and Geraldine, that to the one who would tell him correctly the most common expression used. he would give an Atwater Kent Dictionary, with loud speaker. Accordingly. the four princesses set out the next day to learn what was the most common expression. During this time. which covered two fortnights, they heard many and varied expressions. Some they heard for the first time. One day. Princess Elizabeth fell into discourse with Frances Obrist, and discovered that a large part of her vocabulary consisted of saying. Well, for Pat's sake! When Bertha Neff was appealed to, she turned with a haughty stare, and answered, I don't know. Another day when Princess Audrey was going about among the markets, she overheard Frances Nes- bit talking to the merchant. Edward Norris, and when he asked two pieces of gold for a vase, Frances said to her companion, Vera Oard. Well, wouldn't that kill you? By and by the allotted time was up, and on a cer- tain day the four princesses all attended the divan of the sultan. Page Fifty Oh, Father, and Commander ol the l3aithl'uI, said Princess Audrey. l beg your Majesty will permit me to tell you the expression l have found to be most common in all the land. Certainly, replied the sultan. What may it be? i'Your Majesty, said Princess Audrey. it is 'Oh. Boy'T Good, said the sultan. What didst thou hnd to he the most common expression of this land, Iilila- beth? Your Majesty, said Princess lllizabeth. l be- lieve it to be 'Don't think l won'tT' FineY said the sultan. And what hast thou to offer, my daughter, Zoe? Sire, replied Princess Zoe. 'Good nightl' is my offering. Excellent- said the Sultan Wilbur. And now. Geraldine, what expression didst thou End most com- mon? Father, and Commander of the Faithful, said Princess Geraldine, am l right in my conjecture that the most common expression in all this realm is So's your old Man? You are right, Geraldine. replied the sultan. To you.

He had one fault and that was saying, XVell, l'll be darned. His sister, Nlelva. disliked this so much that she resolved to break him of this habit. Melva sent Paul. a servant, to the genii Carl, who dwelt in 2 l 5. Paul told him of the malady which afflicted Melva's brother and Carl, being wise, advised Paul thusly: Give him a sleeping powder mixed from the favorite subjects of the people of the realm. I can at once fix this for you and I promise that he will say this expression no more. So saying, he mixed the powder. using Paul's science, I-lelen's dramatics, and Jessie's algebra. Then he gave the powder to the servant Paul. who carried it back to Melva in 207. That night while the vizier slept. she gave him some of the magic powder. Suddenly she was aston- ished to hear the words James was saying. Ouch! You don't tell me. l'll bite, and then the usual, l'll be darned. Nlelva was amazed and went straightway to the genii. To him she explained the situation, and he answered. 1 have mixed up favorite slang expres- sions instead of' favorite subjects. I can not help you, but if you were to go to the ef'rit. Ruby, she will help you. Melva hurried to Ruby, who gave her Fred, Mayor, and Louva who were to charm James, and together they departed for 207 to try their wiles. Fred played the violin, but James said Ouch! l.ouva sang to the vizier, but he said. l'll bite. Mayor then decided to read to him from the Messenger and chose the Sophomore's Diary. .lames liked the reading so much that he soon for- got all the expressions he had said and lived happily in 207 for many years.

Harold waited and after awhile King Harry came out and went away. Then Harold went up to the gate. pronounced the magic words, and also went in. The sight he saw gladdened his eyes. for it was just what he sought. Stacked around the room were his- tory gems, algebra diamonds, and all other riches the heart could desire. Quickly he chose science emeralds Page l'ifty-two t N 1 ' . ' , . - t - .Vx , - s .. . , L . . for himself. and Social llnglish rubies for his sister. and hurried home.

Harold obligingly told them l,eRoy at once hurried to the gate. pro- nounced the magic words. and went in. Then. he took all the riches he wanted, but King Harry entered at the moment, and tinding the robber there, imprisoned him in 321. When LeRoy did not return, his sister was worried and sent their tutors to find him. but they were treated in the same manner. Then Harold went to look for them. but he was wise and took a library slip and got through safely. He discovered the fate of the poor men and carried the news home. He also told them a secret. He said that when they took a magic library slip with them. King Harry was willing that they should partake of his riches. All were pleased with this information and with all the riches they obtained, they prospered famously, finally arriving on Graduation Boulevard. r. as ' 'ix ., ,K , ',, -,gt X. ri- ' f s 1 . .

H. S., proctors .roamed the streets all day, seeing that order was maintained One of these days on which the Proctor Louise was pursuing her usual custom of walking about, she decided to disguise herself, so that no one would recognile her as a proctor. Accordingly. she hid her proctor badge in her -pocket, and continued on her way. As she passed two girls, she heard one of them. Iillen, say to the other, Vivian, 'iGoodnessl those proctors seem to have so much authority, but I be- lieve they woulrln't be very strict about enforcing the rules. Don't be too sure! answered Vivian, as they walked on. Proctor Louise strolled on, and she next saw a boy running, which, you must know was a terrible offense, and punishable sometimes with imprisonment in 321. She perceived that it was Gordon Quick, and called to him to stop. Gordon answered not. so Louise held up her proctor badge, at sight of which he immediately came to a stop, and going down on his knees, said, I entreat you to spare me. I swear I do not deserve punishment. Whether or not you deserve punishment is not for me to decide, said Louise, You must attend the caliph at the divan tomorrow. Next day Gordon attended the divan of the Caliph Brooks, who administered justice to all in the kingdom of W. H. S. At this time, there were many cases to be heard. Tom had been caught eating chile on the streets of the metropolis: Ava had been seen going about in her bathing suit all day, so fond of swimming was she: Sybil was heard reading Latin aloud in Assemblage : Mabel, Kern. and Ellis, were found playing basketball. cards, and baseball, respec- tively, during feasting time. The Caliph Brooks dealt justly with them, and then, turning to Gordon, he demanded the reason for his extraordinary conduct. Gordon paid'his respects to the caliph in the usual manner, and said: Commander of the Faithf'ul, I was found running in the streets yesterday because I was in a hurry to get to that work which requires my presence at the sixth hour daily. When Gordon had finished, the caliph said unto him: Since thou are thyself sensible of the enormity of thy sin, thou shalt not be punished, but if thou art ever again convicted, thou shalt spend ten years in my detention prison, I hope, however, that thou shalt devoted the remainder of thy days to a leisurely gait. ,jr Lim Jtxsx P' 5 f ffl!

Now this idle king had sought far and wide for some- thing that would bring him amusement, but having failed, called his vizier, Bryan. and counsellor, Arthur. to devise some plan of amusement. Ifre long they de- vised a plan whereby all the beautiful maidens of the land were to be brought before the king to perform some sort of amusement for him. lf they failed. they to be dashed from the tower into the ocean. When the maidens of the land heard this, they were terrilied. Especially so. were Dorothy and Sybil. who were to appear before the king that day. They finally decided that the king could not resist being amused WCYQ if Dorothy exhibited the new method of baseball, and Sybil how to eat cherry pie without being bothered by the cherry seeds. But to their horror Dorothy, in exhibiting base ball hit the king on a fly ball, and Sybil, who had not practiced her feat enough, choked on a cherry seed. They were, accordingly, dashed without mercy from the tower by Raymond. who chanted threateningly. l.et your conscience be your guide. Lucille was next to be called upon, and she decided F'f -f 537- ' 'Yf9l'f:,. .ff1.,w 3Y'PW9 f tsvy D' 5 that she would continually laugh at the king. King Almer, however, was not amused, and l.ucille was killed. In like manner, Helen and Genevieve were called and, having failed to comply with the king's wishes. were killed. Next to be called was l.a Verne. a little maiden of Titian colored hair, Now l.a Verne decided to read for the king, and if he were not amused, he would have to bei Thus she recited to the king a humorous play which concerned a character named Topsy, and he grudginglv gave her a broad grin and occasionally a laugh. When the reading was Hnished, she prepared to leave, telling King Almer that she had fulfilled the re- quirements. Then the enraged king's wrath knew no bounds. He ordered her to he put to death. But the quarrelsome king had not reckoned with this Titian haired maid, for she at once proceeded to tell him she had amused him. and he to tell her that she hadn't. So then and there, my readers, began the everlasting controversy between the Titian haired maiden. l.a Verne. and the argumentative king, Almer. and they still may be disputing for all I know. ii Sfgamw l c tgifee-----,izgall1,Q3p.Zf3'5fS?al..fa.Il.Q?9w ..

Wichita, who had two sons. Howard and Ray. who were quite skilled in the sport of hunting. So the father determined to send his sons to the hunting ground of W. H. S. and let them compete for honors. When the sons reached the hunting grounds. they made ready their bows and arrows and started out to conquer all the beasts they met. First they were called before the Grand Vizier Truesdell. who said: Search within the walls of the grounds until thou hast found and conquered fifteen animals. then you may go. The boys started out. First they met four dread' l ul enemies. Histroy. a horrible bird of prey. the wildcat called Math. the serpent Science. and the coil- ing monster called Caesar. They. with Francis and Ruthelma, fought the animals bravely for a year, and when at last they were overcome. Ray and Howard sent a report to the Vizier Truesdell. 'iGood. said he. For their bravery l shall confer on them the title of Junior. Let them no more be classed as Sophomoresf' They next obtained the aid of Valeda and Thelma and went forth to hunt. One day June, who was also a Junior. came to them and saidi O, Friends. come with me. I know the lair of Yutlftll,1i'l'li-if-ilqflifxiiii turf 'iii tL7iyAQt 1' J ,Stull X 'J' six beasts, and. with your help. we shall overcome them. The battle was long. and once. when the brave Juniors were about to be overcome. they were rescued by Rufus. who passed around his lesson bullets with which the little company drove back the beasts. A year later another report was sent to the Vizier Truesdell. 'AAh. quoth he, They please me greatly. Give them the exalted rank of Seniors and let them go forth again. if they conquer five beasts within the next year. I shall give them a hunting license that will admit them to larger grounds where they may compete for higher honors. So the company set forth. John, Katheryn. and other Seniors joined their group and soon they met their enemies on the south walk of the grounds. Five immense Genii. called Majors, confronted them. For a year they fought, and at last the genii were cowered. When their victory was reported to Vizier Truesdell, he called his Sovereign Brooks and said: . These people deserve the exalted hunting license. Thus Howard and Ray and their brave companions received their rewards. And the thirty-tifth night passed away.

Once a year all the Girl Reserves met at a con- ference and talked over their plans for the coming year. One year the conference was to be in Wichita. Three hundred girls were to come to Wichita and reside there for three days. All the girls joyfully anticipated their arrival, but three days before they were to come the girls sud- dently realized there were not enough homes of the Girl Reserves for the girls to stay in. We are lost, wailed Marguerite and Marie. wringing their hands in despair. llarl and l5rank, hearing their wailing, ran to ask them who had died. but they could only answer with subs and sighs. Mildred, standing near by, tearfully told them the reason. ls that all that bothers thee? scoffed the boys. Noi thou hast not heard the worst. cried Opal and Gladys. running in breathlessly, we have just received news that the chariot drivers are on a strike, At this the girls began to sob and wail afresh. and. truly, they were so worried that they grew old and grayhaired. Not knowing what to do. the boys could only beg them to have courage. At that point Pauline. Ray. and Orwin entered, each with a bright idea. Said Pauline: O, beloved Girl Reserves, I suggest that we ask the subjects of W. H. S. to open their homes to these girls, surely they would like to do it. Thou hast saved us Prom a clamityf' cried Gladys, embracing her. Then Ray and Orwin both spoke at once. saying: We suggest. O Girl Reserves, that thou ask the sub- jects to lend their private chariots to our visitors. Thou speakest well, all replied. and the girls were so relieved they straightway became young again, As they had said. the Sultan's subjects were glad to lend their chariots and keep the visitors in their homes. for in truth. all enjoyed themselves immensely.

The front hall of his palace was lined with glass cases in which he kept them. Many times his armies went forth and wrested these gold prizes from their enemies. Some of the prizes were cups. others were large spheres. while others were gold tablets with inscriptions engraved on them. One day, as the king was in his harem being en- tertained by his four beautiful wives, Ruth, lfsther, l.ena and Martha, his vizier. Muril. appeared before him and, prostrating himself at the feet of the king, spoke to him saying, O king, we have this day captured a maiden of Persia who wishes to tell you her story. l.et her be brought forth at once. commanded the king. Immediately a beautiful maiden was brought forth who threw herself at the feet of the king crying, Spare my life, O king. for l would tell thee the story of my misfortunes. Begin without delay, directed the king. And she began: I am Mildred Erma, daughter of the late king of Persia. My father, as you may know. was the richest king in the world. He was so rich, in fact, that he had his palace made of pure gold. studded with precious stones. He was thought inconquerable but one day. while he was out of his empire. his wicked vizier, Iiorrest. ascended the throne and had my father. on his return, put to death together with all my rela- tives. M.y maid, Edith Mae, and l barely escaped with our lives and were fleeing when your soldiers captured us. lf. Oh, King. thou wilt but avenge the death of my father, l will give thee anything from my palace that thou mayest desire. The king, enraged at the cruelty related him. at once sent an army against the usurper and captured the city. Refusing any reward from the Princess lirma. he placed her on the throne and had the vizier bound and brought before him. Calling forth his genie. Otis. he commended him to change the vizier into a gold statue to be placed in his collection as a warning to ambitious viziers. lf. O Sultan. thou visitest Vifichita High thou wilt see him still, eternally doomed to be a golden image.

He created a proclamation saying, Every school. that desires. shall publish an annual record of its pursuits and accomplishments. and at the end of the year they shall bring them to me to be judged, For the best annual. l will give a grand prize of an All American Rating. This proclamation greatly interested the schools all over the lands and they set to work. carefully choosing material and themes to make their annual best. All year they worked. and at last after all annuals had been completed. the sultan proclaimed a day when they should be brought before him to be judged, From the lands of Kansas City the editor Aileen. came with her volume: from Omaha came Oletha: and from Lincoln came Sylvia: and from Chicago came Marjorie. Likewise from all over the land came edi- tors with their offerings. Amid great applause the sultan appeared before them and began thus: I have been greatly disappointed. Not one ol' the annuals submitted is worthy of the great reward I have offered. and l know not what to do, Just then a youthful maiden. Katherine. accom- panied by Ruth. Erma. Richard, and Glenn approached the sultan and said: O Sultan, we come from Wichita. in Kansas. Vile were delayed on the road, but I pray we are not too late to enter our annual in the con- test. NVith grave misgivings the sultan took the annual and began to read: An Arabian Night theme! he cried. as his face brightened.

One day these two. gaining admittance to the king. addressed him thus, O king. many of thy people have asked us to beg for a holiday. We are here before you to gain per- mission for one to he called Apron and Overall Day. The king granted this favor and commanded the people to wear aprons or overalls: or, they would be boiled in oil. To the couple who appeared most strangely dressed. he offered a prize of a beautiful cos- tume set with precious stones. As holidays were few, there was much confusion as they prepared for the great day. Frances exclaimed to her friends, Mildred and Marion, By Allah. I possess no article of clothing of such style as an apron. Mildred made reply, Neither do l. VN'e shall have to purchase some goods f'rom the merchant, Orrin. While buying the material, Orrin told them that their friend, Madeline, had also purchased some beautiful cloth that morning. Overhearing this bit of news. Georgia, who had always been jealous of Madeline. because of her speed on the typewriter, began to hate her with a fiery hate. Seeking some means of revenge, she related her trouble to Charles, who was equally as villianous. Charles had always been jealous of Madeline's friend. Frank, because he received more of the king's favor. They plotted together for the destruction of these innocent folk. When Madeline awoke. on the morning of the holiday, she was dismayed to End. instead of her apron, a pair of' overalls, but having no other cosv tume she donned the overalls. Frank, Ending his overalls missing, and fearing the king's proclamation, put on the apron which was left in their place. XVhen Frank and Madeline came to the assemblage. later in the day, a shout arose from the subjects when they perceived their garb. As for the king, he imme- diately called them to him, and said, Thou art, by far, the most strangely dressed: therefore. thou shalt receive the great reward as I have promised. v' Nc . ,. 4.5 cgi I ,,--':f'i.', t , WT- M,lf'Nf ff gf-A -e 'J ts 'wie V ,t.fX 7 ' KX l T ' i tw x 101-'Q' ta 'fa by .ut .ft .frcttltwt 21 QQTJ' t'1.Vll.5f'9f3 Jessie D.

Being in the flower of his age he grew weary of living without special work to do. Thus he and his vilier, James. resolved to set sail for unknown lands and they continued their voyage till at length the vessel pursued a wrong course and the captain, Alpha. knew not whither to steer. After days of travel a city loomed before them in the distance. Stanley asked, O captain, what is the name of this city? Alpha relied, l know it not. Since, however, we have come hither in safety. let us enter. XVhen they entered the city, which was called XV. H, S.. they found all the inhabitants converted into black stones. They were amazed at the sight. They wandered through the streets: each was attracted from his companions by the wealth in the palaces. Stanley, entered a huge palace, called Auditorium, and there beheld six stone people. Jessie. Jewel, Esther, Mary Elizabeth. Arthur, and William, clad in apparel of astonishing richness. A bell began to toll, and the sound in the silence was startling. The stones moved and as each person came to lif'e he picked up whatever lay nearest him and hurled it at the visitor.

Regaining consciousness he beheld a rat caught in a trap. Being a kind hearted man. Stanley released the rat which immediately became a beautiful maiden. named Margaret. Stanley gasped and cried, What-? Thou needst not ask thy questions, Margaret answered, for l will tell thee what thou desired to know. ln the neighboring country, Newtonia. lived a prince who envied our kingdom its happiness. beauty, and talents. so he cast a spell over it that should not be broken until l was released from yonder trap. VJhen anyone came to the island the bell would toll and whoever was nearest the visitor would come to life and try to drive him away. That was to prevent our being released from the enchantment. They were afraid we could conquer the neighboring provinces at basketball, and in this way they tried to check us. At a wave of Elizabeth's hand the inhabitants were released from the enchantment. So pleased were they at being set free that they entreated the travelers to dwell there forever. Page Sixty-one f .

Tell me ol this battle of which l have not heard. As Cleora continued wailing, he could learn nothing from her. The sultan sent for Paul, her brother. and said. Find someone immediately to tell me of the war between these kingdoms. If my wish is not fulfilled by 3:35 tomorrow. you and your sister shall be turned to silver trophies. XVith haste and diligence. Paul sought for one who had a knowledge of the battle. He brought Beryl of 200 to the sultan. Well? asked Panfllo. O Sultan. we would have been the victors. but all the maidens in 209 were enchanted by a genie so that they could do nothing but quarrel about how they should do the bossing in the future.

Not much. whispered the fear-stricken Ray- mond. The sultan scowled. and Ellis boastfully re- plied. My lord, 210 would have won the war. but we carried their plans to lOl. Miserable ones, cried the sultan. you shall be turned into window glasses so that everyone can see through your wicked plans. At last Paul brought Violet and her maid, Eloise. the only ones left who knew of the war. What know you of the battle? demanded the sultan. My lord. Violet replied, there was once a con- test between these countries to see which would win the bag of' gold. The battle raged hotter and hotter until Hnally. with the aid of Picture Contest, 101 was able to subdue its rivals. Ah, breathed the sultan who enjoyed hearing of good lights, tell me more of this war. The two damsels did as he requested.

A genii appeared to him and spoke thus. Because of this crime. you must suffer. l7ind every cat in the kingdom and marry her. until you find the one which will become a princess. The cats will continually scratch you. until you fultill this mission. The sultan. afraid for his own head. sent two servants. Leo and Cleo. abroad to search the kingdom for the cats. Alas. they found six but no more. Hilda was the first cat brought to the sultan. She ate banana pie and would not eat mice. Aleda, who was especially fond of gymnastics. performed stunts the sultan's head. Dorothy. Noella. beautiful yellow cats, and they liked to sing on the high wall at night. Vesta spent her the sultan's eyes. For a long time the sultan lived with the scratching cats. continually on and Lela were time scratching At length Leo and Cleo brought in a grey cat. small and ugly. We have sought every where, and this is the only cat left in the realm. Then Homer spake. I shall marry this cat. and if she is not the princess. all the cats shall die. He ordered the wedding tables to be prepared for the ceremony. After the wedding, no princess appeared before the sultan. So he made ready to kill the cats at dawn. Suddenly the princess appeared and spoke. l am the Princess Fern. l and all my friends. which you have married, were enchanted by the genii because we refused to kill you as he wished.

Vlfith the speaking of the magic words. Oodles and grabs. six maidens came forth. These, the once scratching cats, are really beautiful women. she said. The sultan marveled at the change. Homer ordered a feast to be prepared and remar- ried every one of them. And. O reader, if you go to that ancient city this day, you will find that a trace of these beautiful women remains, for the cats of the future were named Persian cats in their honor.

One day he gathered them together and, addressing himself to the class of people called Seniors he said, Since ye are the highest class in my kingdom, ye must enter- tain us for nine evenings with a new form of amuse- ment. Unless ye do this ye will not be granted a vacation at the end of this year. Now this was a desire uppermost in the hearts of these people, so they set about planning the entertain- ments. carefully placing a new amusement on each evenings program. All went well for on the first night the king and his people were charmed by the acrobatic ability at l.ucille, on the second night they were entertained by a wonderf'ul play which Marvel presented, on the third evening Robert showed them a most interesting collection of stamps. on the fourth night they were delighted with Margaret and her jazz orchestra. on the fifth evening l.loyd told of his research work in the Held of science, on the sixth night Georgia ap- peared with a new device for writing called the type- writer. on the seventh evening Oleta charmed the people by her works in Spanish, and on the eighth night Mildred presented a program over the radio. Now all of these were new to the people in the kingdom. so the Senfors feared not that on the last night they would be granted their vacation. The en- tertainment had begun when word was sent that Maxwell, who was to produce the amusement for the last evening, was missing. Consternation filled the hearts of his friends, but Maxwell could not be found. King Paul was angered at the delay and the Seniors were down-hearted at their sudden failure. At the last moment, however, Maxwell drove up in his horseless carriage called the lford. and said that the Juniors had waylayecl him, and removed the tires of his vehicle, but he had hurried in on the rims. King Paul was greatly pleased at this, and com- mended Maxwell highly. though he was disappointed in the Juniors, and told them that they would be subject to another year of school, as punishment. As all had gone well with the Seniors, King Paul granted them their well-deserved vacation.

However. when he came to her apartments to hear a story, he found her white. and shaking. Upon Virginia he found that she knew one more story. She begged him to be merciful with her. He commanded her to tell this tale saying that, if it were good, he would spare her life. So she began. Near the coast of' Newton, on the island of Wichita. there ruled King Brooks I. lt was his custom to have sent, through his kingdom every morning, a proclamation to be read and obeyed by all. One morning the king's trusted guard, Donald. distributed the message which read: CLD All royal subjects must have their photographs taken to be put on file at the castle. before four weeks have elapsed. 12.5 No Charleston dancing will be allowed. 13.3 No pass cards to foreign countries will be issued. Now it happened that Berry Dunham failed to get his picture to the palace. The king sentenced him to spend the rest of his life in 205. Harless was found Charlestoning by the guards, so his feet were tied to the floor for two years. Ted, who traveled questioning Page Sixty-six in foreign countries. left without a pass card. and was put in the tower. The king thought it was strange that all the sub- jects who had disobeycd were boys. Looking into the question he discovered that Violet had asked l-larless to show her the Charleston, and l.olita had dared Ted to leave. The king then, decided to punish the girls. too. but he could find no maiden who was the down-fall of Berry. Vkfhen questioned. Berry said, I simply forgot. The king pondered long as to what would be the blackest and most terrible punishment to go down until eternity. Finally he had a plan. and turning to the victim he shouted. No resemblance of thy wicked countenance shall appear among thy companions in the 1926 Wichitan. Future generations will search the pages in vain. To nothingness and eternal photographic nothingness do l condemn thee. The story so pleased King Philip that he gave Virginia her life, and they lived in happiness until they died. 1.

Stogsdill Miriam XVithrow I u '- Science ln the science department are eight different sciences that a student may take. They are all one year sub- jects, and all of them but one may be started either semester. These are botany, biology. physiology, chemistry. physics. normal training, agriculture, and vocational agriculture. Botany is the study of flowers. trees, and plants of all kinds. Biology is the study of all the lower forms of life. Many fine collections are made of insects in these classes. Physiology is a study of the anatomy and all its workings. At times doctors of the city come and lecture to the students on different sub- jects. Chemistry and physics are both sciences, in which over half of the time is spent in laboratory. The chemical laboratories are said to be some of the finest in the country for real practical use. For the past two years in the National Chemical Essay Contest, W. H. S. students have won first place for this state. Normal training agriculture is a class of girls who are taking the normal training course. In this course the rudiments of farming are taught. The vocational agriculture class is made up of boys who wish to make a vocation of scientific farming. They take it two hours of the day. and receive aid from the state in their work. They have several acres of land south of the athletic field, where test crops are raised. Some of these crops are sold, and others are saved for examples.

Vera Knickerbocker Pearl Adams Isabel Ford Bertha Hershey Lucile Iiildinger Elizabeth Hodgson Lucetta Johnson Celia Light Enqltsh The required courses in English alternate between literature and composition, beginning with literature in English IOB. Silas Marner furnishes subject mat- ter for the first term: Sohrab and Rustum, Enoch Arden. and other poems are studied in the second term: and As You Like lt is read in the third term. In English l0A emphasis is placed upon punctu- ation. grammar review, and word study, with stress upon paragraph development, outlining. transition, let- ter writing. and parliamentary procedure. English llB returns to a study of literature by types. Ivanhoe is studied as an example of the novel, Shakespearean and modern plays illustrate the drama, and One Hundred Narrative Poems gives the basis for the study of poetry. English llA furnishes an intensive drill in gram- mar for those pupils who need such a course. Other pupils are allowed to choose among essay writing. creative writing. and journalistic writing. Senior courses are all elective. Social English 12B is followed by American Ideals 12B or A, American Literature IZB is a course in early American Literature: Page Seventy-eight American Literature 11A makes a study of modern American Literature. College Preparatory English 12B is recommended for all pupils who plan to attend eastern colleges. Journalistic Writing 12B and A, and Magazine Vlfriting 12B and A are concerned chiefly with the publication of the school periodicals. the Mes- senger, the Messenger Magazine, and the Wichitan. One of the three new junior elective courses is creative writing. Fifteen boys and twelve girls, each having some literary talent and ambition. constitute this class in original composition. Most of the mem- bers have broken into print at least once, the Messenger, the Wichita Beacon, and the Church Chron- icle having proved especially hospitable to their con- tributions. The first project of the creative writers was to provide each new IOB pupil with some life-saving advice as to excuses. proctors, lockers, and other dangers. Next they paid their respects to two Feb- ruary heroes. The week after the Wichita Way was adopted and printed, each member sent a copy of it to a student in some distant high school, accompany- I X tr.. - X wr t- A. , x .. , , 4, M ,' - f '-Cx ' . 4' .Q ' ' V N , f' I .t fl N I ml ,. . - A f .. -X . t- ' fb.. -QF' 'Y 5' if-I 'tit-ft-' Q f 'Wt' xr 1 as .Ml 'i fa IV? f' ' 't -' f' N ' W 1.5 V- ,x,.-.f-ft Uv'-ff' -A me ffff V,-wzlt will. , wi, 5' 4. -s. ha z tr- I if ,I V' , '11l!'l4k7W' i iff-fi fl'.8s1 kaM ll .a-' ' v 'I 21:'wi'os'10Q'!

Many of these epistles have received gen- erous answers. The creative writers attempt all sorts of writing. analyze the methods of real authors, criticize each other's manuscripts, and write for a definitely selected public or occasion. The aim of Essay Writing llA is twofold: lirst. to lead the student to read with genuine pleasure biographys. nature. sketches, studies in men and man- ners. and the expression of modern ideals in work, in literature, and in life: second, to write. with con- siderable freedom, of his own reactions to the stimuli which he has been led to realize through the inspira- tion of the models he has read. The text book. Laws' Modern Essays, introduces the student to a variety of types ranging from the humorous account of a pup-dog and the satiric com- ment on chewing gum to Glenn Frank on Modern Education and the poetic prose of Yukio Ozaki. The classes in .Iournalistic Writing l1A are com- posed largely of pupils who are candidates for mem- bership in senior journalistic writing classes. The course is designed to save time for the senior courses by a review of the mechanics of composition and an introduction to the principles of journalistic writing. lt also enables the pupil to make a more intelligent choice of senior English courses. The only share which the llA junior classes take in the publication of the Messenger is that of writing Pertinent Personals. The aim of the course in American Ideals realizes fully what it means to be an American. Material is selected from literature. history. economics, biography, and the student's personal observation of modern life. The class organizes this material around a few cen- tral topics: The pioneer as a nation-builder The political ideals of our democracy Typical and ideal American character The truly American themes in our literature The evolution of our social and economic system America as seen by foreign eyes. Each topic reaches its culmination in a carefully prepared program. In the written themes the student develops historical imagination by describing dramatic events and striking personalities as if he had been an eye-witness.

Lil' . .i.-Q, Historq The subjects that until very recently were grouped under the heading history are now more correctly designated as social studies. A cursory scrutiny of the subjects or studies which appear under the heading social studies will make clear why the change in name was thought to be desirable. In most of the highly or- ganized high schools we 6nd that the following named subjects appear under the caption social studies: history, geography. economics. civics. elementary sociology, and psychology. The studies offered in the Wichita High School department of social studies are as fol- lows: European History IOB and IOA, European History IIB and IIA, American History IZB and IZA, Economics IZB and IZA, Constitution IIA. N'.odern Progress IZA, Social Problems IZA, and Psychology IZA. Until the session of the legislature of l9Z5 all the subjects in the department were elective except American history. The Kansas State Legislature of Page ljighrv that year enacted a law which requires that every high school student shall. before he completes his senior year's work, have made a satisfactory study of the Constitution of the United States. In this way Con- stitution IIA became a required subject. During the present year Psychology IZA was made a part of the social studies. A ruling was made by the State Department of education in January. l9Z6, to the effect that every student who graduates from an ac- credited high school in the State of Kansas must have to his credit at least two and one-half units of the social sciences. These changes have materially in- creased the enrollment in the department as is shown by the statements which follow: the total enroll- ment for the semester ending May 29. I9Z5 was IZI4. The total enrollment for the semester which ends June 4, 1926 is I600. The percentage increase in eri- rollment since 1923, when the Vklichita High School first operated on the senior high school plan. is 63. , S , .-,, .-...1, f,s ,viii V f 1, .X w , , ,. ,ya , X .lf ,, ,xt IE!!-,,. ...V .,,fi.,-l- X, ,Q K A K 'A-' 'l.I'4 -',,'qk-tmtl' A g , , , , .1 l Xl l v , N X Q l U f X L ' , ' XM X O l ei, M lie ' if-J ' T fa. ,' WP -fl 1- .pa 'N-'ktffx 1, Xkfgl All .L fi :ill e gF.3l-WL A ll.

The commercial department has both general and special courses in book-keeping, accounting. business law, economics, money and banking, commercial geo- graphy, marketing, stenography, and other allied sub- jects. The purpose of commercial education is to give general business information: develop initiative, and responsibility: and train men and women to econom- ically and ethically promote business enterprises.

Woodin cf A The department of vocational education, as now organized, offers to the boys of the Wichita High School an exceptional opportunity to gain first hand information in the fields of industry and trades. The new major and minor plan, now used, permits a stu- dent to take more vocational work and graduate with college credit, provided he will plan his course early. The department now offers ten courses to choose from, as follows: architectural drawing. mechanical drawing. related science, practical electricity. pattern making, wood turning, cabinet making, auto mechanics, Docational Education machine shop practice, and printing. Architectural and mechanical drawing, auto mechanics, printing, and machine shop practice may be taken one, two or three hours a day for three years. This extra time is offered to students who have made a decision as to the vocation they will follow, and wish to enter it as soon as possible. XVood turning, pattern making and related science are one semester subjects. one hour a day. Cabinet making is offered for one hour a day for one. two or three years, and practical electricity one hour a day for one year. Home Economics The department of home economics has for its general aim the training for worthy home membership, creating of finer attitudes toward home and family, and establishing of habits of better living. Emphasis is placed on high ideals of home making and family relationships. Food and nutrition courses aim to bring about a more intelligent and economical expenditure of time and money for food through a better understanding of body needs and-food values in relation to health. Clothing and millinery courses are taught in order that girls may have their systematic training in that highest of arts-the art of right living. Page Eighty-two ., ,Y , t,g , ,,.! K, Aefww. The home decoration course includes an interesting study of domestic architecture, house plans, and room arrangement. An extensive study of period furniture, selections of rugs, curtains, draperies, and linens are included. Emphasis is placed upon the fact that beauty. comfort, and utility may all be included in the small home furnishings if proper selection is made. The home and society course tends to develop in the students an appreciation of the home: what it has done for them, and what they have contributed to it: how they can make themselves better members of the family group and society. li .X Jay. . vu, V ,WX J:-1, gf A ,xlxxmffux xt.,-. 1 Mfjl ' all , ' .

These courses are open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors. There are no prerequisites to the beginning courses of either language. The aim of the department is, in the first place, to teach the student to read the language: therefore, the work of the lirst year is mainly drilling in distinct pronunciation and accurate hearing, study of sentence structure, and memorizing of vocabulary through trans- lations. oral and written. The student is encouraged to do reading in addition to that prescribed in the course, so as to be constantly enlarging his vocabulary. Dictations are given to help perfect the student's hear- ing and toiaccustom him to think in the foreign language. Conversation in the foreign tongue is used as soon as the student has acquired a vocabulary large enough to make conversing possible. This conversation is based on class-room life and on the work contained in the daily lesson. Occasionally a whole period is de- voted to conversation only. German classes will be offered as soon as the re- quired number of students express their wish for such. Latin Attention is given in the Caesar classes to syntax and the art of translation into good idiomatic English. Some time is spent on the life of Caesar, Caesar's methods of warfare, and the geography of Europe. In the Cicero course the Catiline orations, Manilian Law, and Poet Archias are studied, also selections from the Marcellus and Verrin Speeches. Students are re- quired to give oral reports on some definite phase of the subject-historical background, contemporaneous H is . s ,, x X, e K I t X X: Xyrv x - Y. history, ethical content, etc. The Virgil course covers the first six books of the Aeneid, and selections from Ovid's Metamorphoses. In this year's work attention is given not only to trans- lation and interpretation, but also to poetical form and constructions, and to literary appreciation. The bulle- tin board offers an opportunity for a display ofpictures, posters, and clippings illustrative of the work being done. Page Eighty-three Ethel Outwater Katherine Railsbncl. Lida McBride Jessie Craig R 1Ymon Hunt Mary B. Scanlon Esme Cellars Art The all department aims first of all to give the students in this department a higher appreciation of what is fine in art. The drawing and design course is planned to meet the needs of those students who are interested from an appreciation standpoint, as well as for those who are talented in drawing. The course is presented under the following heads: color and design, drawing. com- position, craft, where design is paramount, apprecia- tion. Color and design includes the study of lettering and poster making with the study and application of color harmonies. Drawing covers object drawing, principles of perspective, figure drawing. This in- cludes the construction of the figure, drawings from the model and the application of figure drawing to design. Drawing also includes pencil and pen technique, and water color painting. Composition covers the study of the principles of composition with problems in landscape, figure, and object through line, dark and light, and color. The crafts under drawing and design include book-binding. woodblock cutting, leather tooling, and batik. Appre- ciation is especially emphasized in the study of the Page Eighty-four f, masterpieces in painting, sculpture, architecture, and historic ornament. The City Art Association. of which the high school Art Club is an associate mem- ber, brings us a number of lectures with slides, during the year. The art classes visit the Association galleries whenever exhibits are brought to the city. The commercial art class is a for all students. The principles advertising through the correct use tion, and well-balanced harmonies card writing with brush and pen practical art course underlying effective of lettering. decora- are taught. Show is also part of the course. Cuts for the school publications are made during the second semester. The two crafts. pottery and basketry, are popular courses. In the pottery course the historical develop- ment of the craft as well as design as it is applied to pottery is carried along with the building of the shapes. The different methods of building pottery, namely coil, piece and mold are taught. All pieces are glazed and tired. Basketry offers problems in weaving with reed. fibre cord and raffia. Such objects as baskets. trays, ferneries, lamps, and sewing stands are designed, woven, and finished. .

Effective speaking includes the principles of speech preparation and delivery, interpretative reading, mem- orized readings. one debate. one oration. and speeches for special occasions. The aim of the course is to enable the student to talk with ease before an audience. and at the same time say something interesting and worth while. Lorna Calhoon, '26, and Stanley Toland. '26, represented Wichita in the Arkansas Val- ley extcmporaneous speaking contest held at Newton in November. Non-decision debates were held this year with Win- field. Marion, and Oklahoma City on the question, Resolved: That Congress shall have the power to limit. regulate, or prohibit the labor of all persons under the age of eighteen. The last twelve weeks of debate are devoted to oratory. Humorous debates and orations are also features of this class. Arthur Richardson. '26, won third place for W. H. S. in the A. V. I. oratorical contest at Kingman. February 18th. A chapter of the National Forensic League. a high school honor society for debate and oratory, was established in April. In order to become a member, a student must win ten points in forensics by representing his school in debate. oratory, or discussion. The pres- ent membership is ten. five alumni, and five seniors, Pearlanna Beloof, Asa Bivins, Stanley Toland, Clifford McAdam, and Arthur Richardson. The dramatics course consists of two classes, the juniors, meeting twice a week, and the seniors. three times. Music The orchestra and the band have broken all records this year. giving about eighty performances. The orchestra studies and presents in concert many of the best compositions written for the modern sym- phony orchestra. The theatre orchestra of thirty members. selected from the symphony orchestra, furn- ishes music for school plays and such entertainments. A string quartette and sextette are also chosen from the membership of the symphony. The band gives annual concerts at the high school and intermediate schools. Band arrangements by the best composers are studied and played at these con- certs. An opportunity is given for individual solo work with band accompaniment. The junior-senior chorus. composed of juniors and seniors only, meets daily and studies standard chorus Normal The purpose of the Normal Training Course is to prepare students for teaching in elementary schools. The following subjects are required: English. mathematics, agriculture. physiology, civics. a choice of physics, chemistry, botany, or biology. American history, psychology, methods and management. arith- metic, grammar, geography and reading. The work in arithmetic, grammar and geogra- phy consists of a thorough review of subject matter. and a study of methods of teaching. arrangements. The members of theuboys' and the girls' glee clubs are chosen from the chorus, or are given special permission by the director to belong to those organizations. Appreciation, history, harmony, and theory are open to juniors and seniors. History of music deals with the beginning and development of music up to the present day. Nationality. style, and kind of music: composers. their lives and effect on modern day writers and musical art are included. Appreciation is studied through the phonograph. player piano, soloists. bands. and orchestras. Harmony and theory consist of ear- training. sight reading, first essentials in musical struc- ture, composition. chords and their inversions, scales. melody writing. and some original work. Training In this work the student becomes familiar with the Kansas course of study for rural schools. The course in reading consists of methods of teaching reading from the first grade to the eighth, memorization of poems. suitable for the different grades, study of grade school classics and mechanics of reading. In psychology the student acquires a knowledge of laws of memory. attention. interest, imagination, feel- ing, emotion, instinct, the nervous system. laws of heredity, and effects of environment. For reference work, books on child psychology are used.

There are both Fundamentalists and Modernists if that comparison may be used. The old school of physical educators were largely of foreign origin. either German or Swedish, who believed strictly in formal gymnastics. This type of work is made up of drills, calisthenics and aparatus work with noth- ing of a recreational nature. The other extreme type of physical educator, which is the more modern, is the one who says that all the desired results can be obtained through recreation and games, and with none of the formal drills. The Wichita High School department of physical education attempts to steer a middle path between these two extremes, believing that much good can be obtained from using some of both types of work. About nine hundred boys report for physical education every day, and because of the large number. most of the recreational work is done outside on the play fields. Much interest has been created in soccer, and it is an ideal type of game with which to attain Page Eighty-eight our object. Basketball, playg und baseball. track, and football are also conducted out of doors. The more formal type of work seems necessary from the standpoint of discipline development of co- ordination, and muscle tone, and this work consists of marching, free hand drills. wand and dumb-bell drills, and exercises on spring boards. mats, parallel bars, horizontal bars, bucks, horses and flying rings. Work in corrective gymnastics and posture correc- tion has been limited because of lack of facilities, but suggestions have been given in connection with the pos- ture test. which is taken every six weeks. Swimming has been an important part of the physical education program and classes were organized for beginners, intermediates, and advanced swimmers. The beginners were insructed in the fundamentals of the crawl, side and back stroke, and elementary diving. The intermediate group worked on perfection of their various strokes and the correction of faults previously acquired. The advanced group worked on life saving. It is hoped that every student graduating from this high school will be a capable swimmer. X , Av Y . ' it it If' 1'-it ,lf -, -'.2:,!1 . , - ,f '-LX ' . 1' .

The nine hundred girls who report every day for classes are divided into four groups namely, juniors, seniors, sophomores, and specials. The division is made at the beginning of the first semester and is based on three examinations. a doctor's examination of heart and lungs, a physical examination which is given by the physical director and one which is filled out by the student. This last examination is a statement of her own health, history, and health habits. When these cards are turned in, those who are not physically fit for the work in regular classes are either assigned to study rooms or given a fifth class to substitute for the physical education credit. Those who are able to do light work only. are assigned to the special classes. which include corrective work, exercises, light apparatus work, mat work, and clogging as well as the lighter sports. volley ball, swimming, and baseball. The girls who are normal physically. are then divided into sophomores, who have calisthenics, dancing, tumbling. traveling rings, work on the ladders, bucks, horizontal bars, and acrobatic stunts, and junior-senior classes who have courses in dancing, tumbling, work on fiying rings, ladders, horses, parallel bars, as well as corrective exercises. Two or three days each week are sport days, on which seasonal games are elected by all the girls. Dur- ing the first twelve weeks there is a choice of swim- ming, soccer, and volley ball, to which tennis and hockey will be added as soon as possible. The winter twelve weeks are given over to group games in the gym, clogging, swimming, and basketball. while the spring term is devoted to baseball, some track work, and swimming. Next year the third badge test will be added to the winter season's work. Class tournaments are held during the three seasons -soccer and volley ball in the fall, swimming and basketball for winter season,,and baseball and ,tennis for the spring term. Practice for class teams is held after school hours, which a girl must attend in addition to her regular class work in physical education if she wishes to be on a team. Any girl making three class teams in one year is awarded a school letter, which is of equal value as the one team letter given to boys. The sports classes, which meet during the school hours, have teams organized according to the skill of the players. A girl may progress to a higher group as she becomes more skillful. Swimming classes are divided into four groups. beginning, intermediate, advanced, and honor. Begin- ning and intermediate swimmers learn the broad back stroke, side stroke, an elementary crawl, and floating. Practically all beginners pass the first Red Cross test. which is swimming 50 feet on the back in good form. Advanced swimmers work for the Red Cross swimmers test. which includes swimming 50 feet on back, 100 yards using two kinds of strokes, surface diving, and front dive and racing dive. Honor swimming classes learn sculling, trudgeon, crawl, and breast strokes. and work for Junior Red Cross life saving honors. Tests are given during the fifth and sixth week of each term, hy which each girl is able to see her own progress and skill. The Bancraft Triple Posture Test is given every sixth week, each girl being rated A, B. C. or D. Page Eighty-nine it . '- TMI!!

The work covers elementary algebra through radicals and quadratic equations in one and two unknowns. The work is introduced through a study of the formula. and the formula is made the tool for investigation, analysis, and conclusion all through the course. The uses of signed numbers and graphs, both statistical and algebraic, are emphasized so that students gain a concept of general numbers and the need for them in the business world. The tenth school year in mathematics is devoted to plane geometry. Besides the state text, a syllabus and exercise book compiled by the teachers of the department is used. The course gives the student a mastery of simple logic by class room development of theorems and many exercises for original thinking. All students hoping to go to college should take the third year of mathematics. Algebra l IB is a splen- did foundation for a business course and is also a college preparatory course. A student mastering it need not fear to continue his mathematics. He has a good general foundation for a liberal arts course. The work covers a review of elementary algebra with a thorough study of ratio and proportion, variation, quadratics. radicals, fractional and negative exponents, logarithms. progressions, and binomial theorem. Solid geometry develops space imagery and it is the most practical course in geometry, Students who want to specialize in engineering. architecture, mathematics, any of the sciences. medicine. or law should elect fourth year mathematics, which includes a study of plane trigonometry and college algebra.

Dean of Girls To get on with folks in the best manner possible is the main objective of the school as seen by the dean, and her ofiice contributes to this task day by day. The needs of the society to be served, the character of the individual to be educated and the knowledge of educational theory and practice avail- able are basic as expressed in the preliminary state- ment of Cardinal Principles of Secondary Education. The dean has a share in determining the policies of the school. in the direction and supervision of social activities, and her interests lie with the education of girls and their relations to home and its worthy mem- bership: to vocations: citizenship: the use of leisure: to the best results in duties and leisure which spell health: to the command of those tools in the affairs of life, the fundamental processes: and to the develop- ment of ethical character. V Registrar The work of the registrar includes the organization of the office. dealing with grades. credits, and enroll- ment. and the general discipline of students. Credits and enrollment of all students are care- fully checked during the summer. and every student is notilied whether or not his enrollment is correct. A statement is sent to each senior telling him what credits he has. and what subjects he must take in order to complete his course. The registrar sends the transcript of each senior to the college he wishes to enter. The student is not rec- ommended by the high school if he has a grade below C on his card. The registrar sends out many reports during the year to the North Central Association, Department of the Interior, the state Board of Education and others. in addition to the report used in the city school system. Page Ninety-one 1 n I . - A ' l:. Ne - lii '. t-... if ' :v f:11 '---- '1 + Cafeteria The purpose of this department is to supply to the faculty and students of Roosevelt Intermediate and Wichita High Schools the best and most nutritious food at the lowest possible price. As to the price, the aver- age lunch ticket for the Year when 2700 to 2800 meals are served daily, has been 18.5 cents. Uocational Within the last twenty years there has grown up a general demand for more efiiciently trained men and women in all lines of work. The idea has been grow- ing in the minds of educators that too many men and women are in positions for which they were not fitted, either because of lack of proper training or because they lacked certain characteristics which were essential in those particular lines. In order to help correct the situation, public school systems throughout the country have been developing departments of vocational and educational guidance in an effort to direct young people along lines which would be more likely to insure success and happiness in their life work. Several departments in the Wichita High School have for a number of years been carrying on certain parts of a guidance program, such as classes in occu- pations and occupational English, visits to industries. and talks by men and women in special lines. The Find Yourself campaign has been an annual event The cafeteria affords an opportunity for many students to earn a thirty-cent lunch by assisting for one hour in the serving at the counter or in checking trays. Employment is given to ninety students in addition to twenty-two women and four men who give full time to the work and four women who give part time. Guidance conducted by the Y. M. C. A. with the help of busi- ness men and civic clubs. Out of these various efforts came an interest in a guidance program for Wichita. The Board of Education had no funds available in the present year's budget, so the Y. M. C. A. gave the services of Leslie Eichelberger, City Boys' Work Sec- retary. for part time, in order to make a beginning and open the way for full time leadership-if a limited demonstration should appear to warrant it. The work this year has consisted mainly of the preparatory work and of personal interviews and coun- selling, with those who were interested in some specihc line of work and desired help in directing their future preparation. More than one hundred seventy-Eve boys and girls have sought personal interviews in connection with occupational classes conducted by Miss Celia Light and Miss Helen Smith. A large number of these have been secured appointments with men or women in various lines of work in the city. Librarq Open, Sesame! And the door of the library opens to you countless treasures of story, travel, information: pleasant pastime or requisites of school assignments. Our library is very well equipped and convenient for study and reference. It has 10.000 volumes cata- logued and classified and a large amount of uncata- logued material. including pamphlets and an extensive clipping and picture file, as well as the more than fifty periodicals received regularly and kept for future ref- erence. Disitinq The work of the visiting teacher is primarily one of adjustment. It deals with problems of attendance. scholarship, and conduct only for the purpose of making it possible for the student to make at least normal progress in school. The school is the business of the high school student. He selects it as his job. Irregular attendance. Page Ninety-two and and Our main aim is to furnish further reading information than is given in the students' texts, the library is especially well supplied in history and economics, the various sciences, business books. art. and literature. Our hope is that the training received in the use of books in our school will help the student as he goes on to college, or. as he goes out into the business world and makes books his university. Teacher lack of punctuality, poor grades, unadjusted attitudes. and uncontrolled emotions are not producers of school efficiency. The aim of the visiting teacher is to get mutual co-operation from every one concerned, in order that the student may do an efficient piece of work and that he may make his school business pay dividends.

An average grade in 11B algebra is required for each candidate for membership. The meetings are held bi-weekly. Any mathematical subject or application may be on the program. The programs are varied, sometimes consisting of a talk by one stu- dent, other times of discussions by several students, and at times of a speech or demon- stration by some person outside of the school. The general outline of programs covers the above three types and they are so ar- ranged as to cover each subject without its being monotonous. Lincoln LaPaz spoke on the method of reckoning interstellor distances. The club spent an interesting evening studying the stars, Every phase of mathematics is discussed so that the members may become proficient in all phases.

All normal training juniors and seniors are eligible for membership. A program committee, consisting of the vice-president as chairman, and two other members appointed by the president for six weeks, plans the meetings, which are held every other Monday evening after school. The programs presented are in keeping with the season of the year, and deal with subjects relating to teaching. These are a great help to the girls in their work. There are no membership dues, but the girls may be assessed when necessary. This year special assessments were made for the purpose of sending flowers to members of the club who were ill.

Senior Dramatics The Senior Dramatic Class has been especially active this year. These students presented delightful plays varying from a play of the Civil XVar period to modern comedies. The first production was The Virginia Heroine, which was presented on Novem- ber 20. The setting of this play is in the South during the Civil NVar, The cast was composed entirely of girls. The next play was Seventeen, Booth Tarkington's famous story, which was given January 21. To the Ladies, a modern comedy, was presented March 30. This play concerns the trials and tribulations of a young man and his wife in endeavoring to get him a higher position in the firm for which he works. The way he succeeds with the aid of the i'ladies is amusing. This ends the group of large productions with the exception of the senior class play. Members of the class presented, under student direction, six one-act plays, given during class time. The directors were Thelma Joseph, Madeline Sweeney, Dorothy Johnson, La Vern Robison, Marcia Bradford, and Genevieve Reed. The play which the class chose as the best of these, was given in assembly on Senior Day. Page Ninctyeeiglit - K g nf L is . il I ,. .- -A.. S l 4 N c , - , N , X , 'ix ' new ya.

Richard Winslow, the youngest of a family whose members are constantly quar- reling over some trivial matter, has been nagged by his family so long that he is afraid to call his soul his own. He spends all of his time trying to become an author. and re- fuses to enter the pin business, much to the disgust of his brother Oliver, who handles the family finances. Nancy Blake, a charming and widely travelled friend of Richard's sister Muff, comes to the Winslow home for a visit. Nancy resolves to change Richard's position in the home by making him think he is the most important member of the family. Nor only does he come to think so himself, but his family find it out also. Alan. Richard's brother-in-law and friend, finds that Richard really should have the home and all the money, as he was born after his father's will was made. This en- courages Richard to assert himself more than ever, and he soon is ruling the entire family. Nancy finally convinces Richard that he is her equal, and he in turn convinces her that she is his.

Junior Dramatics The Junior Dramatics Class has been no less active than has the Senior group. It is composed of thirty-six students who are interested in dramatic work. The course is purely elective, and the class meets two times a week. Because of the constant work of the class it has been able to finish a number of fine plays for public presentation. Thursday Evening and The Albany Depot furnished one evenings entertain- ment. Another group of two plays consisted of The Unexpected Guest and Neigh- bors. The class helped furnish the program for the Junior Class party by giving 'APennington's Too and Sardines. These plays were repeated for the benefit of the Parent-Teachers' Association. A group of four plays, called the Four Fantasies, was given the latter part of the year. This group consisted of Pierrot Of The Minute, The Maker of Dreams, 'AThe Dreammakerf' and Mr. and Mrs. P.

In order to become a member of the Schubert Club. a student must be able to sing and read well. As a result, the club consists of the best voices in the school. The members sang carols in the halls at Christmas, and also caroled at various places about the city. After carofing they were entertained at the home of Maureen Lee. The main achievement of the year was the operetta. A'Swords and Scissors, pre- sented on April 23. The setting of this operetta is in France in the time of Napoleon. The chief characters are Napoleon and his wife, Josephine. The story and characters were amusing, and the costuming and lighting effects were beautiful.

The National Honor Society is an organization of high school students similar to the Phi Beta Kappa in colleges. Before this society was organized, the honor students re- received little or no recognition for their work while in school. To be eligible to election to this society, a student must stand in the highest fourth of the senior class in scholarship. In addition, each member must excel in character, lead- ership, and service. There may be not more than fifteen per cent of the senior class elected. During the last semester of school five percent of the junior A class is taken in for the next year, and in the fall semester ten percent of the seniors are admitted. In the fall the society, under the leadership of Miss Apel, sponsored the sale of tickets for the dedication of the Jessie L. Clark Memorial Organ.

These students chosen for the council are of the highest type of scholars, as well as being at to deal with prob- lems concerning the school and its welfare. The past year the council is revising the constitution, as the old one was not com- plete. The council has charge of Field Day in the way of selecting the entertainment, eats, and oflicials. The group also decides whether new clubs or organizations may be formed, whether or no foreign letters and sweaters may be worn in school, and many other questions which may arise. The Student Council has its own reporting room in 3l8, where business is trans- acted. Many high schools in Kansas and other states are corresponding with our council asking how to deal with the various problems which arise among their students.

In order to create a wider interest in health and greater athletic activity among the girls of W. H. S., the Girls' Athletic Association was organized. Meetings are held every Thursday after school where health is discussed and stunts are worked on. At the beginning of the year the girls held a Hiram and Hannah party for all new girls in the school. Several hikes were enjoyed, one of them a ten-mile trip, and the girls also went on a twenty-live-mile bicycle ride. A G. A. A. shield is awarded to every girl who passes five out of six tests which are given her. These include a posture test, Red Cross swimming tests, a ten-mile hike, a number of stunts, and examinations on games. A chevron is given each girl who is on a class team. A letter is presented to a girl who makes three teams. Those available are basketball. soccer, swimming, volley ball, and baseball. The most important of the G. A. A. activities is the annual circus, which was given this year on April 16 and was highly successful. A parade was held by some of the members before school in the morning to advertise the circus. The features of the circus included dances, among them the sailor's horn-pipe and the Highland Fling, stunts on the rings, a clown act, and stunts by the boys' gym team.

To begin the school year a Hi-Y Mixer was held in the gymnasium in order to stimulate interest in the club. Regular meetings are held in the cafeteria every Thursday evening. The total membership of the club this year was one hundred and thirty-Hve, and the active membership more than eighty. The Vv'ichita delegation to the Emporia and El Dorado Conferences was the largest of any city in the state. The boys heard many excellent speakers at these conferences. The Hi-Y had three banquets during the year, the Father-Son Banquet, the Inaugural Banquet. and the Mother and Son Banquet. This year the club sponsored the Basketball Banquet also. A party was held in the fall with the Girl Reserves. The closing work of the club this year will be to raise one hundred dollars for the L. K. Hall Fund for Hi-Y work in China.

Twelve girls who attended the Girl Reserve Conference at Estes Park, Colorado, last summer. brought back the inspiration for the theme of this year's activities, which was Girl Reserves on a quest to find happiness, friends, and God. Each week programs were arranged to follow the monthly themes of the quests for friendship, beauty. appreciation, peace, high ideals, fair play, health, hope, and quest for the gleam. High points in the club's activities for the year were the Girl Reserve-Hi-Y English Derby, New Girl Matinee, Mother-Daughter Tea, Father-Daughter Banquet, Christmas party at the North End Community House, Christmas and Easter all-school assemblies, Inaugural Banquet, and the Mid-Winter Girl Reserve Conference, for which the Wichita club was hostess to about four hundred Kansas Girl Reserves. All in all, the Girl Reserves have tried to carry out its purpose. To create and main- tain Christian ideals among girls.

The girls have learned from the discussions at their weekly meetings. to appreciate the finer art of living in the home, of being a guest, and of entertaining. They have par- ticipated in social and athletic activities as a part of their training. Six delegates from this club attended the Girl Reserve Conference. They were Roberta VValton.

When Robert Bell was elected in 1924. to lead the team in 1925, he was eligible but when the '25 season started, he was ineligible because of age. The team decided to choose a captain before every game. l Wichita played Arkansas City in the opening game, October 3rd, at Roosevelt Field. The teams were evenly matched and Wichita received the only counter of the game when Haworth blocked a punt behind Arkansas City's goal and Potorff fell on the ball. Smith and Potorff starred for W. H. S. Fullington, captain for the first game, had his shoulder-blade broken and Romine. .star half back, wrenched his knee. Both were our for the three next games. Wichita went to Newton the next Saturday and were beaten by a score of 13 to O by the brilliant playing of some of the Newton players, and their own errors. Saturday, October 17th, Wichita plaved Topeka, at Topeka and beat the capital city boys when Asman make a 93-yard run for a touchdown and McIntyre intercepted a pass and ran 35 yards for the second touchdown. Goals were kicked after each touch- down. October 24. W. H. S. played the Cathedral High team of Wichita on a muddy. sloppy field. .Wichita won by a score of 19 to O. Asman and McCready starred for W. H. S. Oklahoma City came here October 3 lst, and beat Wichita by a lopsided score of 41 to 7. Pickens and Timmons starred for the Sooners. Fullington made the only touchdown for Wichita. D Wichita went to Kansas City the next Saturday, but on account of the snow and rain the game was postponed until Monday. The game was a scoreless tie, with the ball in the middle of the field most of the time. The boys were kept at the homes of the players on the K. C. team. Kingman came to Roosevelt field on November 14th and sprung the biggest sur- prise of the year when she defeated W. H. S. by a score of 12 to 6. El Dorado came to Wichita for the last game of the season. Wichita won the game 15 to 0. Asman, McCready, and Walton starred for W. H. S. The captains for the games were: Arkansas City game: Fullington. Potorff. Newton game: McCormick. Topeka game: Bertholf. Cathedral game: Potorff. Oklahoma City game: Haworth. Kansas City game: Weese. Kingman game: Schaeffer. El Dorado game: McCready. Those receiving first team letters are Captain-elect Asman, Bertholf, Potorff, Haworth. Shouse, McCormick, Fullington, McCready. Hartman, Lewis, Weese. Wiley, Steele, Romine. Smith, Foster. McIntyre, Schaeffer, Walton, and Manager Kimball. W. H. S. has prospects for a real team next year. Wiley and McIntyre, ends, will be back. and the rest of the line will have to be new players. Perrin and Perrine, center and guard, are two of the best prospects on the second team last year. The backfield has plenty of material in Captain-elect Asman, Bausch, Romine. Foster, Steele, Smith. and Walton. The line will be Coach Hinman's largest job, but there is plenty of material from Intermediate schools that will be out next year.

XV.1ll.lcc XVilcy, Forrest Kimball, manager, Basket Ball Wichita High started the basket ball season with only two letter men, but with many good prospects. From the large group which answered Coach Youngs call, an excellent team was produced. Captain Howard Fullington and George McCormick were the only two letter men to return this year and both of them were on the National Championship Team of 1925. Potter Goff, two year second team man. proved to be a good team-mate for Full- ington and was placed at left forward. Goff was one of the leaders in the individual scoring in the Arkansas Valley League. The next problem confronting Coach Young was a center. Oscar Asman was the dark horse who showed himself to be very capable despite his size. Emmett Smith and Ward Bennett were close seconds in the race for position at center and both will be valuable material in building a team next year. Don Morris, the quiet Sophomore. earned the position of guard with his stonewall defense and indomitable courage. Wallace Wiley and Coah Dull performed creditably as sub- guards. Lloyd Hartman made a good utility man. The team, as a whole, was not very big but they were fast, flashy and had a big bag full of tricks which helped them to pile up the score. They proved that size does not count by winning every game until they came up against Newton's six-foot team, and even then they put up such a scrap that Newton had to keep the ball over their heads to keep Wichita from shooting it down to the goal. Wichita finished the season in second place in the Arkansas Valley, and second in the district meet, but did not go to the State meet. Newton was the opponent who put Wichita out of the running both times.

Competition for the strong Wichita team was not very keen and so not many matches could be gotten with other schools. Wichita won the Ark Valley meet, which was held here February 13, in compe- tition with about six other teams in the league, by a score of thirty-three points. In the El Dorado match here March 4, Wichita entered seven events and won all but one, which was forfeited because Heasty tore the ligaments in his side and was forced to retire without finishing the match. The loss of Captain Neas in the Tulsa meet April 4. because of an injured hand, was a severe blow to the team and was one reason why Tulsa took the honors. Wichita received a silver trophy for winning the Arkansas Valley championship. The prospects for another championship team are very promising under the leader- ship of Wilbur Mateer, next year's captain. A large number of this year's team will return to defend the honors next year. Points were awarded in matches as follows: Five points for a fall, there points for a decision, and two points for a draw.

Qqm Team This year the gym team and tumbling team have been combined into one team, which is capable of tumbling as well as giving drills and doing apparatus work. This gives the boys a wider knowledge of the various kinds of apparatus and gym work. as well as giving them a more thorough physical development. Other sports may develop certain muscles, but many others may never be called into use. The exercises on the buck, horse, parallel bars, horizontal bars, and flying rings bring into use every muscle in the body, and it takes one who is well muscled to perform efficiently on this appartus. For beauty and precision there are the wand, Indian club, and dumb-bell exercises. It is a wonderful thing to watch several white clad boys doing the same thing at the same time as if they were one. Mr. Graves directed this branch of work and produced a team which surpassed all others of its kind before it in Wichita High School. The team performed between halves at several of the basketball games played on the home court: also, at an exhibition in competition with the Y. M. C. A. They as- sisted the G. A. A. with their circus. Page One Hundred Thirty-on I C3 , X , xx,1,Y U' , , f ' f I 'Fx ' . l-Tl Pl, .115 uf' I ? -.A .Q ' -'17 .'-3 Uk' ,' V, in N43 V',fA1:L I... N A I k -4 W: , X N l:lRSI' ROW.

The team has won every meet up to date. including the K. U. Relays. The K. U. Relays are a national meet, and if Wichita wins them next year, the trophy comes to W. H. S. permanently for winning it three years in succession. Captain Updegraph won a loving cup for being individual high point man. Bausch was high point man at the Southwestern 20th Annual Track and Field Meet. The Seniors won the inter-class meet, Juniors second, and the Sophomores, third. The K. U.

TOP ROW: Coach Graves, Richard Bird, Arch Burton, Byron Cotter, Soccer Soccer is another new sport which bids fair to develop into a major sport among high schools if it is given half a chance. It is hoped that it will soon be put into the Arkansas Valley League. Nearly every boy in Wichita High who takes gym knows how to play soccer, and it has become very popular, and several very good players have developed in the gym classes. There was no regular team picked to represent the school this year, but several of the best players were chosen from the class teams as they played the schedule arranged for gym work. The team played several games with the Friends University team and divided honors equally with them. Other games could not be secured because but few high schools teach soccer. and it has not become popular enough in general to be included in the athletic work.

However, a trophy was awarded for the Ark. Valley champion- ship. A state championship meet was held at Manhattan, May 15, where we were repre- sented by two of the members of the team. The same day Dave Trufelli, pro at Crest- view Country Club, sponsored an invitation meet at Crestview, for high schools within a radius of one hundred miles of Wichita. Wichita High sent a team of four to compete for her. The team was chosen by an elimination tournament in which two matches of eighteen holes each were played in each round. Page One Hundred Thirty-four tftafealnit tefiw- Girls Athletics ICHITA HIGH SCHOOL has three qualifications necessary in girls' as well as boys' athletics: namely, material, spirit, and coach- ing. The girls have shown a greater interest in their sports this year, perhaps, than any other and have madeian enviable record. The swimming teams under Miss Daugherty had aninteresting A season. The juniors were successful in this, winning from teams of sophomores and seniors combined. Volley-Ball was also a popular sport this year and was coached by Miss Majors, The junior teams won 8 games, the sophomores 4. and the seniors 0. The Basket Ball teams coached by Miss Lyman had a successful season. The juniors won this taking three games out of six. the seniors two, and the sophomores one. Miss Lyman coached the soccer teams this year: the juniors came out victorious, winning from the seniors by a close margin. F., '..1uull' A -in '-v ,.. -..' ---im' '- -'nl a '.

H. S. Campus In the past two years the campus of Wichita High School has been changed from a barren dirt plot, upon which weeds thrived, to a really artistic place which is the pride of all the school as well as the city. Visitors who come to Wichita are astonished at the beauty of the campus, and many who would not visit this part of the city are attracted here by the high school grounds. The landscaping was done by Alfred McDonald, director of parks and forestry in VVichita. Mr. McDonald planned the grounds so that the building would be set off by the surroundings so essential to the Gothic architecture. Trees and shrubs, of which there are sixty varieties, were planted at various places on the campus. Flowers including tulips, sweet honeysuckle, and Japanese Wisteria. lend their fragrance and charm to the campus. Bermuda, which serves as a lovely background, stretches far and wide. ' The Twentieth Century Club helped in making the campus beautiful by donating part of the trees on the grounds. All in all, Wichita High School has a beautiful campus, one to be proud of, and one that can be termed as a real beauty spot of the city.

This development is to be won through self-expression. self-control. and co-operation. The Wichita Wav ls our, road to the school goal of self- realization. The Eve stations along- this road are Self-lmprove- ment, Citizenship. Friendliness, Loyalty. and Sportsmanship. ' The builders of the Way,were John Butts. Helen Kemp. Lois Mclntire. Winnifred Pfaf. Ethel Posey, Almer Reilf. Stanley Toland. and a hundred others, who crystallized into words the highest thoughts of the school. ' ' . I. SELF-IMPROVEMENT We seek by education to develop our natural powers to the fullest extent. and to increase our enjoyment of all that is best in life. ' Through work we realize our best selves and the forces that are within us. lf we are not satisfied with yesterday's best. ambi- tion will make tomorrow better. lf we do systemfitlic. conscientious studying that has a delinite goal, we shall derive om each course its greatest value..and our life-work will later befa credit to the training we are now receiving. ' X We believe in doing independent. honest work f'on our assign- ments to the best of our ability. whether that ability is great or small. 'ln order not to be parasites we must not merely be orderly snd attentive. but must also make our own recitations an asset to the class. lt is our duty as well as our privilege to be healthy. that we may have as much as possible to give. Toi be all-around students we must build up our bodies and freshen our minds by helpful recreations. practiced temperately. Our fun should never conllict with health. courtesy. or scholarship. ll. CITIZENSHIP We obey the laws of Wichita High School and acquiesce in its government because laws and government create harmony. benefit the school as a whole. and protect each individual. We accept. as necessary conditions of the system alfosding us a free education. the state laws prohibiting membership in secret societies and the use of tobacco by minors. We cheerfully co-operate with teachers. proctors, and caretakers in maintaining good order and high morale. 'ln order to maintain a genuinely democratic school we should elect to the Student Council and similar oflices those students who will represent our highest school standards. Honors. advance- ments. and leadership should be based solely upon personal merit. The same opportunities and rewards should- be open to each and all. Every W. H. S. citizen. whether exercising authority or obeying it. should feel his personal responsibility to act honorably and for the good of his school. School property is intrusted to our care and pride. We should protect our buildings and equipment from defacement and destruc- tion. We should avoid soiling the walls, marring the furniture. losing library books, scattering trash. and trampling on the lawn. We believe in absolute honesty as to other people's property: and in prudent care of our own. so that our belongings may be neither a nuisance nor a temptation to our fellow-students. u By freely supporting our varied school activities and volunteer- mg our service to good causes we work together to create a greater Wichita High School. Ill. FRIENDLINESS . As- students of a great public school we open the doors of friendliness to all, regardless of dilferences in race. color, and be- Page One Hundred Forty-two lief. We do all in our power to help new students to become fa- miliar with our ways of doing things and with the spirit of the school. We are glad to welcome visitors. answer their questions. and show them about the building. ln assemblies we are attentive and responsive. In the class room we avoid causing disturbance and needless trouble. lf we are courteous and considerate at all times to all persons. our school will always be a happy. home-like place. IV. LOYALTY AND RESPECT We feel a just pride in Wichita High School. We never slandet it. nor listen to those who would. We are a part of the school: the school is a part of us. The better our school spirit, the higher will be our achievement. We respect the Blue and White, the school emblems, the uni- forms, and the olficial songs and yells. We expect those who play on the teams, wear the emblems, hold ofliccs. and otherwise repre- sent us in any inter-scholastic contests to be especially careful not to do anything that might lower the reputation of W. H. S. Everyone of us, however. whether he is in hall, auditorium. or classroom. on the street car or on the athletic Eeld. should prove his loyalty by refraining from all actions that would cast discredit upon himself and the school. We demonstrate our loyalty to our respective classes, not by hazing and unfriendliness. but by taking part in the inter-class con- tests and by competing for school honors. Believing that patriotism and religion are essential elements of character. 'we maintain a respectful attitude during prayer. the llag salute. scripture reading. and religious or patriotic music. V. SPORTSMANSHIP As a student body we support our teams-win. lose. or tiel We appreciate ability shown by our opponents, treat them with courtesy at all times. and refrain from cheering when they are penalized but we give our loyal best to our own players. Our athletes and other school representatives conform to the rules of sportsmanship in their most liberal construction. They live clean lives. keep up their grades honestly, take no unfair ad- vantage. and accept the decision of the referee. They are modest winners and plucky losers. Whatever the score, they iight hard to the final second. ln all types of inter-scholastic contests the student who rep- resents Wichita High School works or plays with zest and puts all that he has into the eKort to win for the Blue and White. Yet he does not sacrifice honor for honors, but considers no victory rea' unless it is clean. THE TRAVELER The student who successfully travels the Wichita Way is trust- worthy. He has a irm sense of personal honor. He obeys laws at all times. not merely when some proctor or teacher may ses and report his disobedience. He neither gives nor receives unfair help in class work or examinations. The good traveller cares for his bodily and mental resources. He gives persevering elfort to accomplish an undertaking. and dis- plays industry and personal pride. He does not desert an uuinished task or an unredeemed promise. He is not self-centered and snobbish. but democratic and co- operative. While educating himself he does his full share to build up the school as a whole. A - ' .-X ' u 3 F . M I .l is .w w 'E f?

Building the 1Dichita l.Daq We have often needed a code to follow and a creed to live up to, and this year our hopes were fulnlled. The school possessed such excellent leaders and such genuine ideals that a com- m ttee of students and teachers decided to allow the student body to make its own code, w 1ich was to be called The Wichita Way. This plan was carried out by means of a contest which was open to all students. One hundred and eighteen Wichita Vllays were submitted and the faculty com- mittee which consisted of Miss Hodgson. chairman. Miss Rosendale. J. M. Michner, and and L. E. Eichelberger selected the twenty best ways. From these twenty the student committee which consisted of John Butts, Lois Mclntire, Almer Reiff, Bob I-lowse, and George McCormick chose the best ten. The writers of the ten Vv'ichita XVays were John Butts, Alice Virginia Cowell, Ruth Granner. Crawford I-lanes, Esther Taylor, Vsfinnifred Pfaff, Almer Reiff, Stanley Toland. Lois Mclntire, Ethel Posey, and Helen Kemp. Vllithout revealing the names of the writers, these ten manuscripts were read be- fore the Messenger class and the senior debate class, who selected the seven winning Wich- ita Ways. These Ways were then merged into one complete Wichita Way. The seven best Ways were written by John Butts, Almer Reiff, Ethel Posey, Winnifred Pfaff, Helen Kemp, Lois Mclntire. and Stanley Toland.

The fifth and sixth periods were held from seven until nine in the evening. The purpose of holding Open House was to give the parents of students .1 chance to see the school in regular session. Over two thousand par- ents visited school. during the evening. During the nfth period the W. ll. S. Orchestra played in the auditorium. and dur- ing the sixth period some of our students played the Clark Memorial Organ. The proctors took visitors through the building and in general explained the ways of high school life. They were also on duty in the Cafeteria from nvefthirty until seven as dinner was served at that time for any parents or students who desired to eat there. The results of the first Open House were highly successful. lt brought students and parents into a closer relationship, it caused outsiders to have a greater appreciation of the work carried on in high school. parents realized the advancement made in education during the last nve years, and students realized again their many opportunities. In general it brought about a closer fellowship between high school and the citizens of VJichita. l age Une lluntlitwl loity lout FIRST ROW, left lo nghl: Betty Timmons, l.ul.1 Cilimnn, lfltlon Powell, Fern XX'eiclm.1n, Ruth Mcllnay.

Neuasies Increasing the number of special sales from one-hundred to five-hundred copies a week was the task accomplished by the Messenger reporting room representatives. At the beginning of the present year a reporting room representative was elected, by each room, to manage all the paper business. The special sales receipts have been twenty and sometimes thirty dollars a week. The method of having reporting room representatives increased the sale of papers so greatly that where one hundred extra papers were sold each week last year, there have been between four and five hundred extra copies sold each week this year. Contests started in reporting rooms whereby keen competition was aroused, has helped to increase the sales of the paper. The plan of distribution used this year has proved so successful that the method of distributing tickets, as was used before, will probably never be resorted to again. Under the present system Messengers are sold in reporting rooms directly to the students. This new system has been a step in advancement for the Messenger itself and it has brought about a keen interest and competition between reporting rooms. It has also placed the responsibility of the Messenger upon students that do not help in its publi- cation. It has made them realize to a small degree the effort and work which goes to make the weekly school paper a success. Since this new Messenger system has proved very successful this year, it will be used by Messenger classes in the future. Page One Hundred Forty-live 1 HCH 'Q .i 5 , Gifts In the past year Wichita High School has received a number of gifts which were added to those already in the possession of the school. Each year it is the custom of the graduating class to leave some memento which will be the property of the high school, and by which that particular class can be remembered. The class of '25, added the statue Winged Victory to the list of school gifts in honor of the 1925 basketball championship team. The picture rack in the hall, in which the senior pictures were placed, was also a gift of the class of last year. nThe Messenger class presented an Italian leather guest book in which are kept the names of the visitors who come to the school. The names of the members of the class, together, with those of L. W. Brooks and L. W. Mayberry, appear on the page of those who gave the book. The Sedgwick County album, given the school by Rex Whitlock, is one of the really interesting books in the library. It contains the names of many Wichita pioneers. together with stories of the early day. This book proves an invaluable volume to the socialf science department. A picture of the University of Kansas campus was presented to the school by a committee headed by James Smith, '24. . A - A picture collection of Mentor prints, which formerly belonged to Dr. Magee. Iwas presented to W. H. S. The prints are useful as they deal with many topics and can be used in all the departments. There are more than six hundred of these in the collec- tion: Alumni Reunion A reunion banquet for all alumni of Wichita High School will be held in the school cafeteria June 3. This is the first reunion of this kind to be held. A prize will be given to the class which has the largest percentage of its members in attendance. Short after-dinner speeches will be given, and the members of the class of 1926 will be welcomed into the alumni association. Following this, a program will be given in the auditorium. The W. H. S. Symphony Orchestra will play. there will be several numbers on the pipe organ, and a student directed one-act play, The Ruling Class. will be presented by members of the senior dramatic class. Genevieve Reed is director, and Ellie cast consists of Alice Virginia Cowell, Peggy Johnson, Aileen Skaer, and Alexander ondros. Mrs. Arthur T. Butler, vice-president of the W. H. S. Alumni Association, is in charge of the reunion. Kenneth Cassidy is president of the association. Page One Hundred Forty-six s I u 1 1 u u ll l I ' O . A J 1 ' 1. Q Dedication of the Clark Memorial Orqan Three years ago Miss McBride, a member of our faculty, had a vision. She made'- the suggestion that W. H. S. own an organ and dedicate it to Miss Jessie L. Clark. who gave her life to the advancement of music in Wichita. This suggestion was acted upon by students, teachers. and citizens of Wichita. Money was raised in various ways and donations were given until at last this vision was realized. U .f' ' ' . . The death of Miss Clark on June 28, 1925, came very suddenly and 'surprised many Wichitans. She was in Portland at the time of her death, but her' body was brought back to Wichita, and the funeral services were held in the auditorium I of Wichita High School. Miss Clark was a supervisor of music in Wichita schools for- thirty-eight years. She came in contact with many boys and girls, and did more forthe musical life of our community than any other individual. - .'. On October 29, 1925, the Jessie L. Clark Memorial Organ was dedicated by Clar- ence Eddy, a world-famous organist. It was with joy and happiness in our heartsithat we witnessed this great epoch in our history. The program was one which Miss Clark would have thoroughly enjoyed. Mr. Eddy was assisted by Mrs. Pearl Hussey Flane1 gan, lyric soprano of Wichita. An afternoon and evening program were given. The organ was purchased from the Austin Organ Company of Hartford, Con- necticut and cost Sl5,000. The pipes of the organ are in the room above the stage and are arranged so that the sound enters the auditorium. The console is kept in an opening in the wall of the stage, and since it has thirty feet of cable it can be placed almost any- where on the stage. The organ has a seven and onefhalf horse power motor that fur- nishes the electric current through 600 wires. There are three manuals or keyboards. The top keyboard is-the swell, the center one isthe great organ, and the lower one is the choir manual. There are fifteen stops and they are divided under these three keyboards. There is room left for additional stops, which may be added as soon as the money is earned with which to buy them. When eight more stops are added we will have not only the largest organ in Wichita, but also the largest in Kansas.

Since our school newspaper is not printed the last week. and it is too late for the annual. there is no printed record kept of these stu- dents, except by the daily newspapers. For this reason we are devoting an entire page to those students who were honored last year, with the hope that the students pub- lishing The Wichitan in the coming years may find this valuable and follow the same method. The Best-All-Around Boy and The Best-All-Around Girl are chosen by a committee composed of some teachers and students. In choosing the ones to whom these honors shall go, the committee considers all phases of school life. The Best-All-Around Athlete is the title given to the boy who has made sev- eral teams. is good in many sports. and who lives up to our ideals of athletics. The student who. during his high school life, has received the highest grades, is given the honor of The Best Student. Besides these honors, conferred by the school, the Rotary Club gives a medal each year to the boy who is the best qualified as a strong leader and a good student. The students who received the above honors in 1925 are: Best-All-Around Boy H Y -7 1 -V V George Gscll BestfAll-Around Girl Dorotha Yeagcf Best-All-Around Athlete ,, , 7, TOH1 Churchill Best Student , David YHbl'0f Rotary Medal - - Rav RUCY l '.1ge One llundrcml llorlyfeight AAAAAAQA3 ynunuu 1 I l In f is N mg 25 ...J B UITICR f A 1: u gg -L5 ' 1,55 u --,.- if eg. 11-fff.'-? .V if 9 B -ff - ,' ' 1 1- fx -if A'.1 5213 ' I f: -1.7.

Tell us a story, shouted all the dear little folk of the Great W. H. S., as they all huddled together in Unc' Benny Possum's nice warm house in the trunk of strong Mr. Oak. So you see, all these little folk shouted for a story, 'cause they knew, yes, sir. they knew, that Unc' Benny Possum was the very best story-teller in all the Great Forest An', of course Unc' Benny didn't want his dear little guests to cry so he began in his nice soft voice, Once upon a time there was a school, where all the children had to go to school all the time- Oh, dear me, sighed Jack Parkinson Muskrat, as his soft brown eyes filled with tears. But one day, continued Unc' Benny, when Sweet Mistress Spring had come, they were given a holiday! And what do you think they called it? Why they called it Field Day! Now, continued Unc' Benny, there were three kinds of little folk at this school, yes sir, there were sophomores, dear little tenny weeny people and oh, so innocent, then there were juniors, who were just a wee bit wiser. Then, dear little folk, there were the mighty seniors, who had very, very large heads and were very. very wise. Now these juniors and seniors used to fight: wasn't that just awful? Yes. sir, and what do you think, why, they even used to paint the building with their colors, and so many, many more to do that. Well, and so they decided to give them this holiday, Field Day, in which to fight. and then they weren't to fight any more, a'tall! When timid little Jerry Gerteis-Jay these awful lights he shivered with fright, bad things. Yes, sir, even Skip used heard about Unc' Benny seeing his fright quickly continued. So, for many, many years, the dear little folk didn't have to go to school on that day, but instead they took their little lunches and went to the nice shady park, Linwood. and played on the soft green grass. But, what do you think? Some of those naughty little folks didn't do that, but instead they went down town in horrid old cars and bought a nice cool drink. But do you know, some of these nice big boys couldn't ever get there, no. sir, because, you see, some of those mischievous seniors, took some of those trembling lit- tle juniors, or sometimes the juniors took those proud seniors, out in cars, way, way out in the country, and left them! Obi I would be so frightened, cried poor little young Almer Rat. Some of those children knew that wasn't nice, said Unc' Benny. so they just got together and planned the bestest kind of a picnic. games and races and every- thing so nice. An' then Daddy Brooks was oh. so happy, 'cause he didn't like to see those dear little boys fight. An' so he said that nobody. no, sir, not even one, could take anybody out in the country and dump 'em. At that all those dear little folks of feather and fur, sighed with relief, 'cause you see. they were. oh, so worried about all those poor dear little boys that had to walk home. An' then, finished Unc' Benny, ever afterwards they had the very best Field Day. an' everybody came and ate their little lunches, and played all those nice little games and had a, ohf. so much better time than they did, a long time ago at those first Field Days. An' now dear little folks that's the end of my story. All the little folk of the Wichita High School. clapped their hands and shouted that that was the best story Unc' Benny had ever told. And so. dear little gentle readers, if you ever want to hear this story again, just you ask Unc' Benny Truesdell how Field Day started.

Some of these are unfounded and far-fetched. but we listen to them with the rapture and enthusiasm of children. Perhaps some day this will be such a story: Deep in the beautiful valley of the Shenandoah, removed from the clatter and rush of autos, the smell of burning gasoline, and the hustle and bustle of the changing crowds, lay the little town of Farley. Small town had acquired a fame though Farley was, the rivaled by only one other small town: namely. Shelby. Montana. This town of Farley had a high school-nothing Attending this high school strange in that. you say! was that unequaled student, Angelo Perfecto! The name that lingers on the lips of teachers and profes- sors. A name that arouses instant antagonism in our normal school children. A name blazoned from the press. hurled from the pulpit. and heralded by the multitude. Angelo Perfecto was without a fault as far as anyone knew. He was clean, neat, courteous. fair. and a superior student. He never left paper in the halls. He was always quiet in the class-room. He never came unprepared to class. He was a joy to his teachers and a friend to all his class-mates. He was perfect. In this age of gross commercialism, such a light could not be hidden under a school-house. The Asso- ciated Press hurled the virtues of Angelo Perfecto to the world. Contracts from moving picture companies poured in. Contracts from weekly magazines poured in. The mail of Farley was loaded with contracts addressed to Angelo Perfecto. Through this hub-bub and furor Angelo re- mained unchanged and serene in his staid life. He signed no contracts. but he continued to go to school and be perfect. Money enticed him' not. He paid no attention to the outside world and its tempting offers. Even at that, the world would not leave him By Melvin Quinn 5 ,ri V 'U alone. Daily, a pilgrimage of adoring adults headed by guides sifted through the school in a steady stream to see Angelo Perfecto at work. The joy of the teachers turned to grief, for the invading herds of sight- seers destroyed the concentration of everyone save Angelo Perfecto. Two years sped by. and the curious world had somewhat got over its first surprise. The newness wore off the thing and the daily crowds diminished. old inhabitants say, was the history of the Shen- that day that the high May 29, 1921. so the one of the blackest days in andoah valley. It was on school was nearly destroyed. Information gathered here and there gives us the following story: Q It was on this day in May that Angelo Perfecto walked into his reporting room a full five minutes late! The students gave a slow gasp of surprise. The teacher sat down so suddenly that the poor chair pro- tested loudly. On the way to his first hour class, Angelo pulled a stick of gum from a pocket and threw the paper on the floor. The few witnesses to this scene ran gibbering to the principal's office. Chewing audibly Angelo slouched into his first hour class and slammed his books down on his desk. The teacher looked up in shocked surprise. What! Angelo didn't wash behind his ears this morning-his cravat was on crooked, and his hair was uncombed! W'ith a horrible rattle in his throat the teacher fell to the floor and passed away. At this moment the door burst open and the principal and several wild-eyed students plunged into the room. only to stop stock still at the sight of An- gelo! The principal swayed. Spots danced before his eyes and he sank to the floor in merciful uncon- sciousness beside the body of the teacher. The stu- dents turned from the still forms of the principal and the instructor to take one more look at Angelo. But Angelo was not in the room! Pa 1 e One Hundred Fifty-thru A ,..,flffS!w 1. . . . lu - ar I- ' . s - ' 4 I I , I I After hours of labor, the principal was brought back to consciousness. His first action was to call together all the students in the high school. Children, he said. no word of this ghastly tragedy must reach the world. I feel he will never return. Should anyone ask any of you about him, you know nothing! Promise me faithfully that no word of this scandal shall reach strange ears. The students assented to the principal's wish but the high school was never' the same. The old faculty resigned because they could not bear the sight of the r familiar halls where the once perfect Angelo had trod. Few of the old students ever returned. Where they went or where the faculty went, no one knows. They seemed to have disappeared completely from the earth. The 'town of Farley is still deep in the beautiful valley of the Shenandoah, and it is still far from the hustle and bustle of the crowds. No one ever hears of Farley now. People no longer visit the' sad, dreary hall and rooms of the high school. No more con- tracts come in the mail. Angelo Perfecto is gone. lDhat I Think of Mqself A By Me Dorothy Johnson. I'll have you know that I am a complete knock- out. Why I'd make a cow look like the side of a barn. if I smiled at you. I'm clever, and I can dance. In fact, I am envied by all my girl friends because of my charming ways. Whitney Drake. One look at me would assure you that I am king of the NV. I-I. S. boys. When I lead yells, all the girls get a great thrill out of it. because they realize I'm so cute. I'm not conceited. oh. no, not a bit. I always am friendly and speak to everyone I meet. Phil Aherne. Well, I'm not so handsome. but I'm good looking enough for any girl. I'm always dressed in the latest styles, and my hair lays down in the most mannerly all times. My teachers all love me and fashion at give me A's because I always have my lessons in on time. Stanley Toland. Students used to think I was dumb until I won a place on the debate team and showed the school I had real ability. I knocked 'em completely dead when I did this. lDhen All ls Done When the last class history is written And the galleys are proofed and read. When the senior panels are finished. And the art editor is nigh dead. We shall rest. and faith we shall need it- Sit down for a second or two. Till the teacher known as Miss Hildinger S'hall find us more work to do.

I had my picture taken three times because, first. my tie was crooked, second, my ears wiggled, and third, I wanted to look just right. I didn't have my picture taken four times because that was the last one. 2. I had my picture taken twice because I am beautiful and know it, and I wanted the world to know it. 3. I was in the picture three times because I am terribly popular, and all the real popular fellows like me had three or more pictures in the annual. 4. I am the great Crawford Haines, so why shouldn't I have my face pictured twice? When others see me. it gives them an inspiration to do great things. 5. I have the most wonderful ears in the world, and that all might get to see them and none might miss seeing them, I appeared twice. CNow every one is commenting on Fred Henderson's enormous ears.J 6.

I needed two, and I got two. 9. We know why we appeared twice, but we won't tell. Ask the girls and they can tell you. 10. In order that when I grow whiskers I can tell what I looked like in '26, I had two pictures taken. ll. I appeared four times, only four. My eyes are of the deepest green blue, and I wanted them to show. I wanted to see my visage when I smiled, so I ap- peared again. I wanted to show my new green and yellow tie. so I appeared the third time. I am egotis- tical so I appeared the fourth time. 12. I had two pictures taken because the first time I tried to smile at my girl and I grinned like a monkey, so I just had to appear again for the sake of my face. 13. Everything is done for art's sake. My face was made for its sake. therefore I was in two pictures. 14. In order that future generations may see my intellectual beauty, I appeared twice. 4 I Page One Hundred Fifty-QV!
