(Easton Hjngb J djool ebc IRecbauffe Class 1906 “ Diitus sola nobilitas cst ” (Virtue is the only nobility) Dedication S-—H A IS time flies by on its never-tiring' wing', as graduation approaches, we feel that there is one, whose interest in our class demands some recognition and return from ■ us. For the past forty years he has served his country ; formerly, behind the gun, teaching the rebellious ones the all- important lesson that the United States is one and inseparable; later, behind the desh, instilling into youthful minds a true patriot- ism, while ably training' them for a useful career. To our veteran, instructor, and friend, MR. JACOB MANN The Class of 1906 respectfully dedicates this fcooK. with the hope that he may live many happy years, to see that the lessons he taught were not wasted. Introduction ATHER TIME announces that another year has passed and that it is now the season to present the third issue of Tint Rkchaufff, to the public. The Class of 190S has lived its too short life. The time is here when we must end as a class. In doing so we wish to present a memento to every person interested in our class as well as to every member, which we trust, will assist in keeping the memory of our class and its doings, fresh in their iniuds. The staff has endeavored to make the book more worthy than ever before, of its title. We have been ably assisted in this work by the many advertisers and also by the mauy new organizations formed during this school year for the first time. The basketball team is an entirely new feature, while the bowling team has for the first time sprung into prominence. For the first time some of our academic clubs have been recorded, to disprove the fact that our minds are wholly taken up with athletics and social affairs. In the social whirl we have advanced quite rapidly, however, even the Sophomores having taken a hand in this movement. All these and many more of our school amuse- meuts have been faithfully recorded on the following pages. Now and then, you will find a page which has been brightened by some jokes or more clearly knocks.” These have been put in regardless of who the recipient might be. We feel therefore that no ill-feeling should be cherished because of any Joke which may appear within the covers of tfiis book. Precedent has established a high standard for Tub RfiCHAUPPfe but we have endeavored to improve cvcu upon this. We hope, as we submit the book to the reader, that our good intentions may be appreciated, our successes applauded, and our failings pardoned for the honor of dear old Easton High and the class of 1906.

I have therefore resisted the desire of attempting this impossible task, and have noted only those which seemed worthy of record. History is a subject which it is not easy 10 treat briefly. The object of this history is to give to the.public a review of the excellences and the defects of the Class of 1906. Shall I call it History ? To me it seems like a pleasant dream. As we look back over the years through which the Class of 1906 has steadily fought its way, struggling ever onward from infancy and obscurity to the throne of power, we cannot but have a feeling of gratitude, a certain pride that we were members of that class, that we supported it in its strife and trouble, and that we helped to crown it with the wreath of success and greatness. In the most important feature of school life, namely, that of learning, we have accomplished much. Our class was not an extraordinarily bright one. but. however, our aim was to fit ourselves iu the best possible manner for a future life. Now, as we approach graduation, there remain but fifty-six of us. We sec this class starting out September third, one hundred and forty strong. Since that time, we have wandered through the wilderness of learning, a wilderness so dark that stars shone even by day. and many pitfalls, in the shape of Mathematics, Latin, Greek and Civics, beset our path. But now. conquered by none, we feel that we arc ready to enter life’s battle, despite all its obstacles. Again, as we look back, we sec its marvelous advancement, especially in the literary work in school, before the footlights, and in athletics. Where our class has especially distinguished itself, however, has been in athletics. No class has ever 10 furnished more nor better material for athletica than did we. The baseball, football and relay victories show this too well to be denied. Although young and inexperienced, we were represented iu our Freshman year by one member on each of the three teams that represented the school, namely ; the baseball, football and track teams, and have kept up the pace by each year adding members to these teams. In our four years of High School life, we have seen Blair Hall and Hackettstown, who had never before been beaten by a High School team, suffer defeat at the hands of the football team, on which we were well represented. Another test of our athletic strength was showu at the Annual Track Meet at Philadelphia, where Boyle, West and Bull distinguished themselves by winning individual silver cups and a trophy banner for the school. As another evidence of our activity in the line of athletics, the male members of our class suggested that a basketball team be organized. A vote was taken at a meeting of the Athletic Association, which supports the teams, and in which we were represented by a goodly number, which wascarried by a large majority. Warner, who had experience in the game, was elected captain. A call was made for candidates and practice was soon begun, with results that were surprising. That team, including Warner, Irmschler, Kern and Wolfe, of the Class of 1906, gained laurels for the class as well as for the school. We hope that succeeding classes will keep up the standaid of Athletics which this class has so successfully upheld. At the end of the football season, the banquet was given by Messrs. William A. Jones and Stephen G. Simp- son at Belfast. A very pleasant time was enjoyed by all. and it was at this reception that fifteen deserving men were awarded their “ E.” A fact which shows our loyalty to the school was the presentation of a beautiful American flag in our Fresh- man year. The speech was made by Roland Edwards, then a member of the class, thus giving us the honor of claiming the first Freshman orator to speak from the platform. We have furnished musicians, actors and actresses who have acquitted themselves creditably. The greatest event of our Senior year was the presentation of A Friend of the Whole Family,” which surpassed all attempts of the kind in previous years. Its success was realized before the public presentation. Three creditable performances were given, under the direction of Richard Snyder, of the Class of 1905. The profits amounted to $170.00, which was given to ” The Thaddcus Stevens Memorial Association,” “ The Athletic Association ” and The Junto.” On each of the occasions at which our class was called upon to entertain, as on Arbor Day and 106th Day, a pleasing program was rendered. The former was enlivened by the acting of “ As You Like It” in full costume, and the latter by a one-act farce entitled “Silence is Golden. The Class, as a whole, took a very active part in the annual Historical contest. The successful contestant was Miss Kate Ernst. Unlike former Classes, we have endeavored to keep our social functions in some way connected with our school work. For that purpose a historical club was organized in our Junior year, which is still prospering. Its mcctiugs arc held mouthly and enjoyed by all. The closing scenes of our High School life have conic upon us. Soon we will leave the High School for our various paths in life. For four years we have trodden the same path, which led to the High School on the Hill, and have shared with one another our victories aud defeats. Each one of us must travel a different pathway—the pathway of life—and aim at that goal which he has chosen or may choose ; and we grant that we may perform our duties with honor, both to ourselves and to Easton High School. These few remarks are but the beginning of the history of the Class of 1906. It will be the duty of the future historian of Easton—or perhaps of the United States—to finish this uncompleted work. Frank T. G. Heck. Class Poem READ ON CLASS DAY By Marion Weaver Crowning the crew of the study hill Every Thursday at Bushkill Park Apart from the din of the dizzy street. Stands the old school-house we used to fill With the songs that memory will oft repeat. Cliding o'er the dancing floor, Prank Heck's massive form you'll mark Waltzing 'till his feet are sore. In fancy we're newcomers once again And tremble and halt at the door. Then Sophomores bold as Juniors reign Then Seniors whose years are four. If you ask Tom's favorite pastime He will answer with a grin, Perk and I stroll up the Weygadt To see Paxinosa Inn.” Now a garland of verse to bestow on the boys Some rhymes for the girls in their praise. Ere the farewell is said, that our Union destroys And we go on our several ways. Chidsey's seat is often vacant When the weather turns out fine. For like Tom to rural strolling On such days he does in-“Klinc.” Before wc part we review the past. We count up the lost and those who remain, We picture each oivc for this look is the last We note all the traits that have grown so plain. Arthur Beilin you'll surprise us Some day by your cogitations. When your book you wish to publish, Ixt Zellers draw the illustrations. And first we will take our stalwart boys Those handsome fellows brave and bold. Every one their wit enjoys Is this truth that I have told? Kern wins on field and Ben on track. Three cheers for Easton High, Oft they brought live victory back Their fame shall never die. � 3 George told me one day in tone sincere. That hi bashfulne worried him greatly. Ha anyone el e in the gathering here Found Sitgreave cold and stately? Diana i cold and ever serene And George perhaps ha learned reierve. But when in Philliptbnrg he i seen You’d never think he was lacking in iservc. Our class has musical talent 'lis true. The mandolin club has won great fame. There's Manager Snyder. Tom. Fultcn and Joe But whoever thought Beilin had a musical aim. Where, oh where were the glee clnb boy ? Their songs this year we never heard. In the play, 'tis true they nude some noise. Especially Mutchler who sang like a bird. Our high C soprano Frank Irmschlcr can charm The heart of a cabbage or even of a stone. And Riey in Chinaman's garb would alarm With his awful base, a king on his throne. Robert and Frank, two studious lads Were favorites down in room C, The teacher loved to hear their jokes And nevcr(?) checked their glee. Ed. Spann i our prophet wise. But he has forgotten one That Irmschler never will be Dunn With curly locks and azure eyes. Wee little Harry Cyphers has Turned out such a popular boy. That his hat has grown too small for him Which all his friends enjoy. Indeed he's such a winsome lad That the teachers all declare. If Harry doesn't soon depart Thty'll give up in despair. Two score lassies and eight more In ts©$ their honors claim. Some are jolly, some serene, , And far off lands will hear their fame. 4 Emily Yahraes i� our class beauty By this title known to all. I'd compare her to a lily. Innocent, and pale, and tall. We have a garden rich and rare Which the Gardner tends with eare. There another Lilly grows. And by her side a blushing Rose. Sing me a song of the Sunny South,” Is the song that’s ever in I-eah's mouth. So fond of romantic adventure is she That she would be “Happy” upon the sea. Margaret White is a jolly blade Who revels in mischief galore. But sad to relate, she has met her fate On the shelf of a certain drug store. Cretu is a little maiden Who studies a great Diehl. She never wastes time by talking. And the teachers all praise her zeal. Bertha Mattes was so sad For he couldn’t get a man. “Joe wouldn't come and Chid.'' was gone. But now she has a Sullivan. Margaret you’re a Priceless maiden. Whose heart Cupid pierced to its utmost pith; If you want the organ mended Margaret, employ a Smith. Viola. I believe, will be our first bride, For she certainly has Ben pretty gay. She goes to every High School dance And dances father Time away. Senior Class, 1906 Class Officers President ..............

We have gained prominence both in social affairs and on the Athletic Field. At the opening of the school year in September, our class realized the great loss it sustained during the summer, in the death of our beloved classmate and friend, Graham Kcnly. He had always been a loyal member of the class, and his death was a cause of sorrow to all. We managed to hold our first class-meeting in Vanderveer Hall on November 30th. A most enjoyable evening wasspent by all present. The members of the class chose “old rose and white for the class colors. Later a very pretty pin was selected. Other very enjoyable social events have occurred and been enjoyed by all in attendance. In Athletics the class has been well represented. Those playing on the football team from our class were E. Smith, Creveling, Noll and C. Smith, all of whom won the coveted red “ E ” in recognition of their good work. On the baseball team we were represented by Creveling and Jones, and representing 1907 on the track team was Ellsworth Krantz. The class as a body has supported the Athletic Association very well. On April 20th we gave our first public celebration, Arbor Day. The event was a great success ; in fact this celebration was pronounced—with one or two exceptions—to be the best of its kind. Among the members of the class we have actors, musicians, and, like all previous classes, a few “ polers.” Thus, as the Junior year is fast drawing to a close, we feel our efforts have not been in vain. Our hope for the future is, that our success will continue through our Senior year. Historian. «9 PRESIDENT .....

Commercial ophomore Class History NOTHER year has passed, and, as wc stand on the threshold of our Junior year, gazing down the vista of the future, adorned with the brilliant letters of Graduation,” wc see our pathway thickly strewn with roses and laurels—bright prophecies for 1908. We. the emulators of '06, with all due respect to our superiors in years and poling,” '07, hope to be worthy successors to their illustrious class. Our two remaining years cannot but be laden with success if the present bespeaks the future. But it is not for us to prophesy the future, no matter how bright that may appear to be, but to reveal our past, a very happy one. we assure you. Our Freshman year is recorded too well in the former issue of this book, for us to attempt to improve upon it. Our record is not so well remembered by the Faculty, although it would be far from us to blush at their talc. As Freshmen wc believe we were never forward—unless in Athletics, to which we strongly contributed—always knowing our place and kindly refraining from giving our superiors the necessity of reminding us that we existed only in the background, a fact which wc cannot too strongly impress on our wayward children, the Freshmen, of whom wc cannot say the same. However, by means of a lesson on the football field, and chastisement delivered on various ‘'sensational” nights in the beginning of the year, which are no doubt still vividly remembered by a few, we have successfully rid most of the class of the “green ” so common in the first year. We have perpetuated our name in the annals of the Athletic Association, and have adorned the walls of the Assembly Room with the picture of a man known and loved by all. But space alone prohibits us from continuing for- ever in the praise and laud of 1908, and so wc close with a toast, first, “ To Her Past !” and then, To Her Future !” Historian. 22 The Sophomore Class, 1908 President _____ Vice-President Secretary — Treasurer ...

The Class of 1909 entered the High School with an enrollment of 165. We came from different buildings throughout the city but a spirit of unity and concord diffused itself so rapidly that it soon appeared as if we had always been united. Early in the year we showed our loyalty to the school by joining, almost as a body, the Athletic Association and by attending and doing our share of cheering at the games of the various teams. We had no men on the Varsity football team, but had a large number on the second team. In Basket ball we were better off, having both Billger and Mclncrncy on that successful team. In Baseball and Track we were also well represented, having Mahn on the Baseball Team and by Billger and Mclnerney on the Track team. Billger also represented us very creditably on the Mandolin Club. We have had class teams which have made an enviable reputation for us. Not only has the class taken this advanced stand in the Athletic field, but we have also labored unceasingly in the development of our minds to fit us to take up the duties of the Sophomores. We have organized five division debating clubs whose inter-division debates have livened up the duller studies for us during the year. The time is swiftly approaching when we are to take up the tasks of the Sophomore year which we do the more readily since we have made such an enviable reputation as Freshmen.

Under the able leader. ship of Mr. Albert Kahn, our school paper has become of interest not only to the undergraduates, but to the Alumni as well. This year a number of the Alumni subscribed and also frequently contributed. Our December issue was beautified by a cover drawn by a graduate. All through the year the book has con- tained articles and poems written by friends out in the world. Another factor in the progress of the Junto was the number of original short stories which each issue contained. Prizes were offered by the English department and thus many who would not have done so weredrawu into the net and sent iu contributions. Our issues for December, January and February were larger than any ever before put out. Each contained not less than fifty pages of matter interesting to all. Another new feature was a member of interviews securcdby the staff. During the year such men as Professor March, The grand old man,” of Lafayette and Professor Marx, our Librarian, and a member of the Civic Club, were conferred with and their ideas proved of value to many of us.

The idea was originated at the end of a history recitation, by Miss Mansfield. With the following day came U, thc clcctio of officers to serve for the ensuing year. Mr. George Sitgreaves was elected President : Miss Laura Niece, Vice-President ; Miss Margaret White, Secretary, and Mr. Floyd Ricy, Treasurer. A com. mittee was appointed and a suitable constitution drawn up, which after a few days was ratified by the club. The original membership was three boys and thirteen girls. By a clause in thc Constitution new members could be admitted upon fulfilling certain requirements. During the year there has been a number of new members admitted until now thc club numbers thirty members. Thc purpose of the club was to become better acquainted with historic facts as well as to increase our social advantages. Meetings are held the first Thursday in every month at thc homes of thc different members. At thc last meeting the following were elected for the coming year. President. Sitgreaves, Vice-President, Miss Niece, Secretary, Miss L. Coyle, and Treasurer, Riey. The Club thus far has proved a success and we hope that jt may continue to do so for many years to come. Thc membership is as follows : Walter Mutchler. Arthur Bciliu, Frank Irinschler, Thomas Warner, I.illic Coyle, Emily Hawk, Bertha Mattes, William Fulton, Frauk McPherson, Benjamin Boyle, Robert Mack. Roy Zellers, Rose Coyle, Marion Hazzard, Laura Niece, Floyd Ricy, Hart Chidscy, LcRoy Snyder, Kcuncth Kern, Kate Ernst, Viola Hively, Margaret Price, Margaret White. George Sitgreaves, Jesse Grube, Roy Walters, Frank Gies, Leah Goldsmith, Annie Horn, Mattie Slough, 3 The Mandolin Club F THE clubs and organizations of the school, there is none as useful and entertaining as the Mandolin Club. At all the public cn'crlaininents of any of the classes, this club is in evidence, and upon its appear- ance it is always greeted by continuous applause, which speaks for its popularity. Since the founding of the club in 1903. it has steadily grown in number as well as in proficiency. This year we have a larger number than ever before—fourteen members. The principal difficulty that this club has to overcome is the one relating to finances. They have absolutely no iuomc with which to purchase new selections or to keep the club moving. The club this year has upheld their standard, however, by not asking for money, and yet rendering new and tuneful selec- tions on all occasions. The greatest necessity is a good leader ; one who has his heart and soul in his work. The club has such a one this year. Mr. Roy Snyder has exerted himself to the utmost to make the club as popular as it has always been. It is needless to say that he has succeeded. It could scarcely be otherwise with such men supporting him as Warner, Crater, Beadell, Smith and others. Cratkr. T he Dramatic Association e S® s Y LORD IN LIVERY,” of last year, gave us the inspiration for the play this term. The remaining members of the old association formed the nucleus of the new, and with the addition of many of the upper classmen—and some under classmen as well—we were able to form quite a good force of actors and singers. The production of last year taught us that the High School could successfully stage and With this fact in mind, the encouragement given by Mr. Jones and Mr. Simpson, the direction of Mr. Snyder, and the willingness to work evidenced by the new members, could not help but make this year’s play a great success. The membership of last year was thirty-two. We increased it this year to sixty-eight. The scenery was painted especially for the play chosen for presentation this year, namely, ” A Friend of the Whole Family.” A large stage was erected over the platform, and the Assembly Room became a beautiful little theatre. The play was in two acts, took about two hours for presentation and brought in about two-hundred dollars. It had to be given a third evening to accommodate the hosts of people who wished to see it. The Junior Class has the ability to give a good play. Let us hope that the Dramatic Association of 1907 will prosper under their care.

Under the presidency of Stephen G. Simpson, ’92, the infant has dared to kick off its covers, slip out of its crib, and walk about a bit. Its swaddling clothes, in the shape of a hampering constitution, are being trimmed and shaped to fit it for its newly found activity. Mr. Simpson had for his associates on the Executive Com- mittee, which does the business of the Association between the annual meetings: Vice Presidents. Florence Mutchlcr. 02, and George A. Laubach, '79; Secretary and Treasurer, Frank G. Siginan ; and the chairmen of the regular committees : Employment, A. D. Mcllhancy ; Social, W. M. Heiberger, ’80 ; Athletics, W. A. Jones ; Membership, David H. Noll. '02. To a sub-committee has fallen the greatest committee-work of the year, as well as, we believe, great advantage to our beloved High School. The subject was broached at a meeting of the Membership Committee, and out of the discussion grew the hope of another scholarship to I ifayette College. This sub committee, consisting of S. G. Simpson, David H. Noll and Frank G. Sigman, after a long interview with Dr. Warfield, President of I ifayette, had the promise of a scholarship, conditional upon the acquiescncc of the Board of Trustees. Finally, after a long wait, President Warfield wrote February 9th :— The Board of Trustees, at their meeting yesterday, adopted the following resolution : ‘ Resolved, that the President of the College be authorized to grant au additional scholarship, upon the nomination of the Easton High School Alumni Association, upon the terms set forth in the rcccut request of the Association.” 44 The terms referred to read : “ An additional scholarship, open to the graduates of the Easton High School, to be awarded upon the recommendation of the Alumni Association, to a male graduate who shall have stood not lower than tenth (exclusive of the Commercial course,) in the class in which he graduates, shall be in need of the scholarship in order that he may enjoy the advantages of a college education, and who shall possess such social and moral qualities as the Alumni Association shall deem most desirable in one who is to take advantage of higher education. The person who receives this scholarship shall be subject to all the scholarship regulations of the college.” ‘•The Alumni promise, as soon as possible, to raise a fund to furnish additional assistance to the student who may receive the award, and also promise to promote in every way the related interests of the Easton High School and Lafayette College.” The Association feels proud of this scholarship. Too much cannot be said of the ready response of Dr. Warfield and the Lafayette Trustees to the request for it, and it ought to be said here that they have been uniformly considerate of the Easton High School. On the other hand, some of Lafayette's most loyal alumni have been graduates of the Easton High School. A tangible plan, worked out by the Membership Committee passed upon by the Executive Committee, and finally acted ou by the Association at a recent business meeting (May nth), is the granting of life membership in the Alumni Association received by the payment of ten dollars. The money so received is to be invested, and the income used as the Endowment Committee may direct for oratorical prizes, essays, aiding the recipient of the Alumni scholarship to Lafayette in purchasing books, etc. We hear strong proof, besides that our organization s alive and vigorous. Easton's largest Hall, Cor- rcll's, on June 30th of last year was taxed to its utmost to hold the enthusiastic crowd of graduates in social meeting : and while the more recent graduates were there in largest numbers, yet hardly a class failed to send at least one representative. The class of 'So attended in a body, celebrating their 25th year. An address of welcome to them was made by A. D. Mclllianey and responded to by the President. Dr. B. Rush Field. As Correll's Hall has been made smaller, and as the Association has grown, it has been decided this year to hold the social meeting, at which the Class of '06 will first appear as Alumni, in the pavilion at Bushkill Park, June 29th. This pavilion will be reserved exclusively for us. It would be a good thing if class reunions, with picnics and promenade concert features, could be arranged for the afternoon. The officers elected in May, for 1906 and 1907. are, Stephen G. Simpson, '92, President ; Mary A. Newman, ’02, 1st Vice-President; Pauline Cope, '96, 2nd Vice-President. Frank G. Sigman, '88, Secretary and Treasurer. ■«5 Officers and Committees of Alumni Association St«ph� n G. Simpson Officers President, ist Vice-President. 2nd Vice-President, . Secretary Treasurer, .

In September. 190!. because of the lack of good support from the High School students : because of the lack of that control which an Alma Mater sltould have over the conduct of her sons and representatives in Athletic Contests and because of tbc lack of the spiritof cnthusiasm-which characterized the years previous-thcre was organized under the supervision of tbc Class of 190 the Easton High School Athletic Association, with Floyd McAlee ‘02, as President. In the spring of 190� there appeared for the first time a track team to represent E. H. S. At the end of the school year after three teams had been equipped there remained in the treasury a crediublc amount with which to begin the following year. The executive office the next year was filled by Mr. Neill ’03, who resigned during the year in favor of Donald Armstrong '05. This year the football team was equipped for a second time and it. in turn credited the school with n column of victories which placed our school foremost among High Schools of Eastern Pennsylvania. Under the same administration, the business men of Easton joined us in our endeavors by increasing our treasurer’s account by fifty dollars. In June. 1903, the following officers were elected to carry on the work until June 30, 190a : Donald Kirkpatrick, '04. President. Ellis R. Snovel. ’©S. Vice-President, Floyd Robbins, ’05 Secretary and Richard Whitesell, ’at Treasurer. In the Autumn of 1903, the A. A. equipped and placed on the field through the kiudness and ability of Coach Meeker, a foot- ball team which not only won every game but also kept their opponents from scoring - a record rarely heard of. And when we consider that they defeated Superba A. C.. Hacketlstown, and Blair Hall, we may safely say that it was superior to any High School team in the State. The baseball team under Captain Miller and the track team under Capuin Cavanaugh also made very good showings. For the fol- lowing year Ellis Snovel. ’oj. was elected President. During President Snovcl's administration in 1903, the membership and financial standing was greatly improved over former years. The most important step taken was the one giving the young ladies the privilege of joining and sharing with the young men the credit of making the association—by anient labor, generosity and a spirit of enthusiasm—an organization of permanency. In the month of February, the treasury was again replenished by the proceeds of a dramatic attempt by the High School students. In April of the same year, the relay team, under Capuin Boyle, ’06, heaped more fame upon us by capturing first prize at the University of Pennsylvania Annual Athletic Tournament. In the latter part of May, 1905. the association elected, R. Frank Gies, ’06. President, Everett Smith ’07, Vice- President, Calvert Smith '07, Secretary, Kenneth Kern '06, treasurer, and Miss Annie Rambo ’07. Assistant Treasurer. The organization of the Tennis Club, a plan of the Class of ’05 but not carried out by them, was tbe'first step taken by the present executive staff. It lias had a great result in vastly increasing the membership and in establishing the standard spirit of enthusiasm which prevails. We feel, as we leave the school for the last time, that we have done our share in strengthening those qualities in the remaining students, which will urge them on toward making the association the strongest in tbc sUtc. We wish the class of 1907 tbc best of success and sincerely hope that they may accomplish many times as much as any of their predecessors. 48 R. Frank Cia Laver . C uy McKIroy. (!� tm Merrill.

The game played by our boys was not the one condemned by the great critics, but clean, manly football, free from all slugging and other bad features. Again I say, it is with pleasure that we look back and think how every opposing team had to work to gain one inch of ground. It was necessary for us to schedule games with schools far out of our class which led us iuto the college ranks. But we cither defeated them or gave them a very good account of old Easton High. At the first call for candidates, the prospects were extremely bright but our misfortune was soon upon us. Boyle, next to Captain Heck, the most experienced man in the squad, broke his leg, and McCoola promising Freshmen was also hurt, thus putting our hopes for a successful season far down. But it was at this time that Arthur Raub took hold of the team, and by changing our old players around and filling up with new material made a team that any High School might have been proud of. In writing of that team, let us not forget to mention one man, Captain Frank Heck, who during his four years in school has not missed one minute of 'Varsity play. He has always played the game as a young man of honor should play it. We were successful in our games against Muhlenberg College, Moravian College, Perkiomcn Seminary, Reading High School. We were defeated by Hackeltstown C. C. I., Blair Hall, and Kutztown State Normal, but the most glorious event of the season was the overwhelming defeat of Phillipsburg High School by the score of 32—0. Thus closed a very successful season. Boyle. 50 Football Frank T. C. H«k OFFICERS, 1905 Captain ....................... Frank T. C. Heck. Manager ....................... Benjamin P.

Basketball Season of 1906 EV STON HIGH for many years has been the champion of all sports in the Lehigh Valley, in Northampton and all surrounding counties. This year we decided to compete in basketball as that sport has become ' very P°Pu'ar- At a the Athletic Association, Ray Warner was elected Captain and I'rank Irmschler was elected Manager. We then engaged a hall in which to practice. There were plenty of canditates as wc never lack in material for any team. At length a team was picked and our first game was played with Easton Academy. They went down in defeat and our first basketball game was a success. Thus with a winning start we entered the tournament held this year under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. Wc came out second in this league, which was excellent, considering the experienced men wc played against. During these games the school supported the team in great shape by their cheering. Wc played uumcrous teams throughout the eastern part of our state and all were conquered. Wc ended our season by defeating the Acmon second team of Phillipsburg which ga% e our school the inter-city championship. Thus our first season began and ended with a victory. It is our wish that future classes will not only live up to our standard bat will push the glorious old Red and White far above that point at which we have placed it.

Although upon its second year only, it has already done much to make it a valuable addition to the school athletics. With Chidsey. Walter and Gics as a nucleus, a team was formed early in the year and since that time has met all the teams in the vicinity of Easton and Phillipsburg. Out of twenty-two games played they have won fifteen. Considering the fact that they were not supported by the Athletic Association, but played on their own resources, we can consider the past season a very successful one. Two hundred and twenty-five was the high indi- vidual score, held by Captain Chidsey. Wal- ters held high average of 182 pins. These scores are very good ones for amateur bowlers. Chidsey's average closely followed that of Walter, being 180, Gics had 179. Although playing for the past two years, this team was not recognized until the present year. So to the class of 1906 belongs the honor of found- ing this sport. The following is the standing of the t Roy Irvin Walter Avcrajc. Flayed. Woo. UM. 150 I 0 1 152 3 I 2 167 12 5 v. 7 165 IO 5 5 Review of Baseball eason THE SUN is ready to set on one of the best seasons ever experienced by the Easton High School Baseball team. With six positions to fill. Captain Mutchlcr had to face adifficult problem considering thcschcdulc which was published and distributed. His work in this line was somewhat lightened by the acquisition ____________ of a coach. Frank Reeder was the man for the place and at our first game against the Business College showed that he had handled old. as well as new men and that we need not have anything but a successful season. It was not until the second game of the season, against Bethlehem High that our team appeared in their new uniforms which they have since worn. The team which played the earlier part of the season was Kern, catcher, Jones and Zellers, pitcher and right field, Gies, ist base, Diehl, 2nd base, Mahn, 3� d base, Crcvcling, short stop, Irmschlcr, left field, and Mutchlcr, centre field. The team has changed in some respects. Diehl left school and his posi- tion has been ably filled by Youclls. Mahn has proved to be a quitter and his position has been filled by Kutz. Out of sixteen games played, we have won thirteen and only lost three. It is hoped that the playing of the boys will continue to be of the professional order and will not fall back into the old amateur styles of bygone days. 6t BATTING Mutchler ...............

We first practiced on the Twelfth-street ball grounds until the Lafayette track was placed in condition. About April 21st Captain Boyle began to weed out his team and, looking over his available material, he found two of last year's championship relay missing. He formed a team which consisted of Bull. Smith, Warner and Captain Boyle. On April 28th our team journeyed to Philadelphia and were pitted against Morristown, Phocnixvillc, Steel- ton, Harrisburg, Allentown and Williamsport, and came in fourth, a very creditable showing. The meet wc had with Allentown Y. M. C. A. was canceled nud everyone looked toward the Reading meet, on May 30. at Reading. Everybody practiced faithfully until we met the Finance Committee of the A. A. to receive their sanction. Here for the first time an athletic team was turned down and in consequence, we failed to enter. This year the team looses Boyle, Bull, Warner, Irmschler, and the future is not as promising as it might be. 73 i Track and Field Records =0OO0=. Event. Time or duUnee. Holder. WhceMed . R. B.

Napoleon Bonaparte APOI.EON BONAPARTE'S greatness was born in the midst of «he Freneh Revolution. We firtt hear of him at Pari when he trained hi eannon on the angry mob, who were about to norm the Conven- tion. The Revolution had at last brought forth a man of genius. capable of controlling and directing it tremendous energies. The people of Pari had at length found a mailer in this Artillery Captain. This man’ history for the next twenty years was the history of Europe. He rose rapidly in rank and in l$o-| was proclaimed Emperor. Why was it that a man of Napoleon's low birth should be placed at the head of France? How was it that all his soldiers loved and honored their Sire. as he wa called? One of the reasons was that wliatever wa hi , wa their . Why was he so successful for so many yean? It wa on account of hi masterly reason. The rule of Napoleon was, The strongest force on the weakest point.” His success was insured by hi unerring calculations and matchless rapidity. It was Napoleon's custom before entering a battle to arouse his soldiers to the same pitch a himself. In Egypt before the Pyramids, he addressed them before the battle, Soldier , he exclaimed, pointing to the Pyramids. Thirty cen- turie arc looking down upon you.” This short, but decisive speech has become immortal. The siz of armies that Napoleon handled were never seen since Xerxes' day. The summit of his power was reached in i$n. The battles of Marengo, Austcrlitz, Jena, Friedland and Wagram were the successive steps by which he had mounted to a most dizzy height of military power and glory. His brilliant achievement still dazzle, while they amaze the world. But now I am in almost the same predicament as wa Albert Kahn, I forget the next few line and must rummage in my pockets for them. This is how he made a hit in the Captain Kidd chorus. He forgot hi line , and to even thing up. he reached in hi pocket for a pony, which, by chance, was subled there. Napoleon once aid the following“There is nothing in war, which I cannot do with my own hands. If there is nobody to make gun-powder, I can manufacture it. The gun- carriage I know how to construct. If it is necessary to make cannon at the forge I can make them. The detail of working them in battle, if necessary to teach, I shall teach them. Kahn and Kem, the literary geniuses of our class, both attempted to follow out this idea of Napoleon’s and learn to work with their hands. They applied for work on the Delaware Street Railway, and what do you think they did? Kahn was put to work running drill in a trench with the Dagoes and worked only eight hours. Meanwhile Kern drove a cart on the river road and when he saw anybody coming that he knew, he would jump into the bushes and hide there- until they passed. The worst of it is, when you ask them what they did last Summer, they will tell you they were tot bosses over the Italians. Would Napoleon have succeeded if he had quit so early in hi undertaking ? Napoleon mingled very little with hi fellow pupil while he was attending the Military Academy. This i ju t like Poe Boyle. Preiident of the A. P. A's. in our cla . Whenever there is a meeting of the fellows. Ben i never present. He never takes any interest in what is happening on the boy's side. While in the Main Room he is never in hi seat. Ben has cast hi lot with the gentler sex and there he remains. Hi one delight in 1905 was to remain in the Assembly Room after four r. si. and talk to the chorus girl while the Dramatic Association was re- hearsing for it play, but this is no more, and now Ben wends his way to P. Burg. But to get back to my subject. Napoleon's comrade had all kinds of nicknames for him. some of which were very queer. But when it comes to having names Noble ha more than any other fellow I know. He is called John. Sanford. Apple, Frog. Indian, Blonde and other epithets too numerous to men- tion. Napoleon dressed very plainly, but always neatly. There were no showy clothes on him to show us in what manner his tastes ran, like Joseph Crater. Joe is the cheap sport of our class. He is a walking agent for Ike Cohen's necktie department. Joe wears a different tic every day. Talk about being loud.—if you look at them you can see what taste he has. Hi reputation has gone before hint, and he is Dunn” (done) for in the Fresh- men Class. Nevertheless, he shows great respect for older people and every Saturday night you will find him on College Hill visit- ing his “Elders.” Napoleon, before his departure from the Isle of Elba, to regain France, gave an elegant ball. This was greatly enjoyed by all present, and was probably the last dance that he attended. Suppose he should stroll into Correll's Hall on a Saturday after- noon and see our two children. Beilin and Wolfe, dancing,— would he be shocked ? There is no doubt but that he would be. They were regular attendants, but since dancing has been stopped there, it is rumored they will go to P. Burg and start one of their own. There was one course in Napoleon's life at the Academy that was a joy to him. That was horseback riding, and he would de- vote hours of his time to it. He liked to sit on a good charger being a great horseman; in fact, this was the only exercise that was pleasing to him and was probably a great help to him in his military career. It hardened hi muscles and devel- oped hit body. But who said he had a better physique than Buster Ernst ? This nun Ernst is a .wonder in handling the gloves, and for weight and reach he has been termed the “Human Giant, the best all-round boxer and exponent of Physical Cul- ture in the East. Roy Walter is another knight of the padded mits, but “Chubby seeks his opponents in another line. When Chubby gets into a social crowd of girls and fellows, he usually picks out a certain girl and begins to box with her. If he does not stop this. I will see that “Buster takes a hand in the matter and forces Chubby” to behave. Napoleon was deficient as a writer, but he fully made up for this as a statesman and orator. Sitgrcaves is our statesman, and he is interested in the politics of New Jersey. George's favorite study is Classic Myths. He is particularly fond of the Story about Diana. Chidsey is our Orator, and I will try to show you his pose as compared with Napoleon's. Chid., a you know, is President of our Class and he loves speaking so that he tried to get ex- cused from it. but Fate was against him. and he had to recite. His was certainly a great speech, and we will always remember it as one of the Senior Events.” He uses hi oratorical ability every day in the Casino, telling the little Dagoes to set up the pins quicker Richard Carle. Frank Daniels. Jefferson DeAngeli . Fred. Stone. William Montgomery and the other great Comedian of the American stage, will have a worthy successor in Walter Mutchler.

You never see “lx talking to a young lady, and more especially he never attends any of the dance given by the Class. He would rather spend the evening shooting pool than to be in the presence of young ladies. Micky” McPherson at one time was ttearly taken from the Club by his wanderings in South Easton, but it was not his fault, and after that he again “Rose as a leading member of the Bachelor's Club. Napoleon nude his way to Empires through a sea of blood and over broken oaths.” This sentence is quoted, as you know that I have not the ability to write such a strong phrase. Spann made his way to fame over the backs of the high seats in the gal- lery, and through a sea of peanut shells. Eddie never broke his word in regard to a show. When Ed. say he will sec the crowd at the theatre, you will always find him there and in a quarter, grab scat. There is a report that Manager Detwiller has given “Ed. and his friend a pass for the remainder of the season. I will tell you a few of the prodigies Napoleon missed know- ing because he lived too soon. He never met William Bull, who comes from Washington, N. where they manufacture organs and other wind instruments. If you knew Bull, you would think that he mi about the best wind instrument they ever turned out He i� bashful and very modest and only missed eighteen days last term for good behavior. Gics is the mathematician of 1906. He knows more, or thinks he does, about this, than any other fellow in our class. He was the only one who was able to find the volume of any pris- matoid. Rube knew that old fomtula DJ'AAfBUM'B1). He has solved one great problem, and that is how to eut other fel- lows out. “Rube has been very successful, and they say both Chid and Kern are among his victims. 1 wonder why “Rube keeps such good order when he presides at the A. A. meetings? Fulton was elected Captain of the Scrub” football team. He would have been a worthy opponent of Frank Heck. But Bill” resigned his captaincy, and since then has taken up music. He is taking vocal lessons at present and his favorite song is. Lena Kline. Say You'll be a Friend of Mine. In speaking of Heck, you might think him bashful, but he is not. He is very bold, and at present goes three times a week to College Hill to Raub” (rob). Napoleon at times was very silent and it was difficult to get an answer from him. Kutz is our quiet boy. and if he should answer a question in a class-room it would astonish both the teacher and the class. They say Silence is golden. and I hope it applies in this case. “Pat. Riey made a good Chinaman, but did you ever hear of an “Irish Chink?” Maybe. Pat’s Chinese blood calls for the Rice, of which he is very fond. All great generals realize that they must be audacious and venturesome. Just so with Napoleon; his way of bluffing and putting on a bold front won more than half his battles for him. He has probably a competent student in Roy Snyder. In bluffing, he is a past master of the art. Some people wonder what a bluff is, and this is the definition I found for it. (A) A sort of ir- culw in definundo given to a professor by a student who has been out the night before. (B) An external something repre- senting an internal nothing. I don’t know which one applies to him, but will leave this for you to settle in your minds. 106 Eating was one of those things which Napoleon was very careful not to overdo. Who will say this of Zellers, whose one great act is to cat: aside from drawing hideous pictures—this is his only desire. His cartoons of Snyder trying to bluff the Fac- ulty were in great demand by the children of the lower schools about St. Valentine's Day. If he keeps it up there is a bright future for him. Warner. Boyle's friend, is now hanging his hat on High Street and calling it ' Home, Sweet Home. I often wondered where Warner got the tobacco he smoked, or rather what its com- position was. It gave an odor similar to that which was given out by the burning of the rope-walk. He begged some real tobacco the other day from Chid.,” and while at the Y. M. C. A. became very, very ill. But in looking over the list of great men I have almost for- gotten Cyphers, the most popular man in the Class. Cyphers is known as Big Red Chief, Leader of the Class.” He should have served Napoleon as a light, since his head looks like the Sunset's glow. whenever his hat is off. There is something the matter with Cyphers since he tries to play Chester DeVondc in true style. The strong liquors served at Weaver’s drag store have quite upset him. If they don't stop selling this to him, the class, as a body, will ask the authorities to. since we wish to have our Sunflower with us to brighten the remainder of our school days. In 1813 Napoleon was not able to withstand the combination of his enemies. He wanted peace, but they refused to grant it. They claimed that he had usurped the power that rightfully belonged to the Bourbons. All that he had done for France seemed to be lost. The educational system that he had created was far better than the one they had had before. But France had been sapped of money and men. She was unable to withstand the struggle any longer. Napoleon's power began to diminish and he based his hopes in conquering Russia. Here he made his fatal mistake. He buried his old Guards in the snows of Russia. At last he was forced to terms. He was placed on the Island of Elba, and from there returned to France. This time his rule lasted one hundred days. He lost both his freedom and his Empire in the battle of Waterloo. This great man was placed on the Island of St Helena under the care of the British. He died in 1821. while the island was shaken to its centre by a tremendous storm. It seemed as though he must live and die in a turmoil. He first made his name known by the tremendous thunder of a cannon and passed out of this world while the Heavenly bodies were en- gaged in their own peculiar kind of warfare. 107 Class Poem By Marion Weaver Read on 106th Day Mcthinks I hear in whispers low The murmur of the summer winds. Dear mother earth with face aglow A solace from cold winter finds. The fields once snow-clad shall be green. All nature from her dreams shall wake, The sky be radiant and serene. And everything new life shall take. The robin from his southern home Shall soon return to greet the spring, And build his nest in some high dome Where sweetest carols he will sing. The modest little violet Peeps slyly out to kiss thy feet. The tiny sparkling rivulet The chattering, thirsty sparrows greet. The kind warm breath of summer air Be filled with sweet perfume. The ferns and vines and flowers rare Shine in the forest's gloom. O spring! Thou'rt welcome to this earth All nature doth your joys proclaim, The trees in whispers tell their mirth And babbling brooks praise thy dear name. The March winds blow, but April follows With showers refreshing every day, April then her sunshine borrows From the merry month of May.

Prophecy « iNE DAY I sat thinking how I could find out the future of my classmates, when there came to my mind the magic lapstonc used by Cobbler Keezar, which Whittier tells us of in his beautiful poem Cobbler Keezar's Vision.” How— The mighty mutter. Agrippa, Wrought it with spell and charm, From a fragment of mystic moonstone. In the tower of Nettles Heim. I thought of the vision the old cobbler saw ; how all the future was revealed to him, with its joys and sorrows, successes and failures ; and how, at the end of the vision, the stone dropped from his hands, rolled down the hill and sank in the river. Might not that stone be found ? And might it not unravel the future for me ? Well, after considerable trouble and expense, the stone was procured—how, it matters not. It was only an ordinary black shoemaker’s lapstoue, and— •• I held up the myMic Upltone, Mice cloud of mitt the blackness H eld it up like a lens. Rolled from the mystic stone. And I counted the long years coming And a marvellous picture mingled By twenties and by tens. The unknown and the known. First I thought of one of our flowers—I refer to Rose Coyle. As I held up the mystic stone and looked into it smoky depths, I saw plainly and clearly our Rose, the happy mistress of a charming little home. She was still at her favorite occupation—decorating the walls with Princeton colors and pennants. I was not surprised, for it was said that she was engaged to Frank even while at school. I next thought of a number of my classmates who spent most of their time typewriting—I mean Emily Hawk. Margaret Price, Salome Hazzard and Ethel Crawford. I raised the lapstonc and looked—there was a large office and in it our classmates, working busily. Once more I gazed into the mystic stone. The scene was a large street in New York ; before an officebuilding I read this sign : Lessons on how to keep a fellow.” INQUIRE WITHIN. Mademoiselle La Barre. ■ it Ala ! Had Mildred coinc to this ? She had always been fond of discoursing on this subject to her unfortuuatc class- mates. but I thought she was too fond of Fields and flowers to confine herself to a dingy office. Just as I lowered the stone from my eyes, the thought of our loquacious Kate came to me. I quickly raised the stone. I experienced a great surprise. I thought she had been married a “ Hohl” year, but I saw her the prin cipal of a seminary for young ladies. Siie had greatly changed ; her calm, dignified manner, and sober, almost stern face, did not look like the Kate we knew in the old days. Our class, like all others, had its chatterboxes, who constantly annoyed everybody by the incessant hum of conversation. I refer especially to Leah Goldsmith and Margaret White. I looked through the lapstonc and saw two lonesome-looking girls wandering along the street. Everyone turned from them, almost in fright. Why was this? They had talked nearly everyone to death, until at last no one would go near them. They had by no means stopped : they were still chattering, but to each other. So remembering past experiences, and forgetting for a moment that it was only a vision, I dropped the stone with fear. What of Marion Weaver? That is easily told, I said to myself. She'll be a charming poetess, of course. Did she not write marvellous poems during her school dajs? Yes, just as I expected ; the stone revealed her showing her friends her latest book. The Secret of True Happiness. This, however, was only one of her charming stories in verse. And now for our happy-go-lucky Mattie. Oh yes—I thought—she is still amusing people with her puns and wit; but what disappointment awaited me! I looked through the magical stone ; I saw a handsome edifice and over the door this sign : HOME FOR FRIENDLESS DOGS, Foondbd by Martha G. Slough.” Suddenly the door opened and Mattie catne out, carrying a very homely poodle in her arms, which she petted and careMcd continually. I saw the name on the collar ; she had called it after her ardent admirer, “ Buck. I turned with pleasure to think of Bertha and Mac. From present appearances, the world will never hear of them, for their brilliant future will be cut short by matrimony. I picked up the old lapstoue and saw — it grieves me to tell it—two old maids I Ah well! Time is a queer old fellow. We never know how many surprises he has in store for us, or how many disappointments. I had almost forgotten another of our chatterboxes. Annie Horn, so without any conjecturing as to her future, I raised the old lapstonc. Annie was walking the streets dejectedly. She stared at everyone, looking into their faces with a most forlorn and pleading look. What could this mean ? Suddenly the thought struck me—Annie was still hunting for a man ! Now for the girl of our class who has the heart and muscle to beat any one at tennis—Leah Updcgrovc. Cob- bler Keezar's lapstone showed me a young athletic director of a gymnasium of one of our most prominent girls' colleges. Farther down the years, I saw her as an acrobat in Barnum Bailey's. How different from what we supposed. Ruth Riedy ; She possessed talents of a high order, for she always Percy vcrcd ; but I fear her future will also be cut short by matrimony. I raised the stone, and saw a woman going through a dingy street of a city, carrying a green umbrella. She had an immense pocket in her dress, holding a fat notebook, and had a pencil behind her ear. How plain ; she was a newspaper reporter. I little thought her inquisitive disposition would lead her to this. And our Emily, gentle and sweet. I looked into the stone : I saw her smiling upon a group of little children, who clustered about her, aud the appearance of the room showed us plainly that Emily Yahraes was the ruler of a kindergarten. Oh. the inseparables, Ethel Heil and Grctta Vogel ; they must not lie forgotten. The stone showed a pretty cottage ; a parrot hung in the doorway, a cat was asleep on the steps. I looked in the doorway and saw the girls sitting inside. I could scarcely believe that these were old maids. I satisfied myself with the thought that their affection for each other was very deep—even to the sacrificing of Frank and Bob. What of our other flower, Lillie Coyle? I supposed that she was engaged in her favorite pastime aud the art in which she was an adept, namely, flirting. The magic stone showed me a pretty scene—Lillie was being married ; but, sad to relate, it was the third time. The same old Lillie. She always did want a new fellow every week. I wondered what the future had in store for our dignified Laura Niece. Had she fouud a man to suit her? I doubted it. He would not be allowed to smoke, go out nights, play cards, or in fact indulge in anything of that character. I took up the stone and saw her as a chaperon at a large house-party. She was everywhere at once and not a whisper escaped her cars. I wondered whether she remembered how she used to try to chaperon the girls of i$o6. There is Helen Barron, bright and gay. I felt almost sure she had changed her name to the most uncommon one of Jones. I saw a large canvas tent. The hand bill at the door announced a great curiosity within—a perpetual giggler. She was living up to the old adage, Laugh and grow fat!” I now thought of our society girl. Laura McKeen. The magic stone revealed her as the center of attraction at a brilliant reception. No doubt she will always remain so, even after she has changed her name. Helen Lerch, quiet, peaceful Helen. I could not picture her future, so turned to the stone. I saw her, but sadly changed. She was the wife of a widower with six children. To think she should have come to this ! Last but not least is our friend of mischief, Edith Lare. I raised the stone quickly, impatient to see her future. I saw a large poster, announcing the coming show at Island Park.” At the top of the list I read : Edith Larc and her wonderfully trained ponies. How appropriate, I thought; she always was skillful in handling ponies, even when a schoolgirl. At last I thought I would look for my own future: I endeavored to raise the stone quickly, but. m doing so, it struck the arm of a chair, and. a second later, I heard it splash in the river which flowed under our piazza. ««3 President ---- VICE-PRESIDENT SECRETARY ---- Treasurer — Chemistry Club Frank T.

It seems that the real name was never guessed.

SNYDER (Axe) Captain axw FRANK HECK (Club) Lieutenant Jenior Events The Football Banquet. OR THE first time in the history of the school, the football team was tendered a banquet by members of the Faculty. Mr. Jones and Mr. Simpson invited the fellows to a banquet at the Belfast Hotel on Decem- ber 17th. The spirit shown by our instructors was extremely pleasing to the team as well as to the whole class. It showed that the teachers were not averse to athletics if they were carried on in a proper way. Our class has tried to carry them on in that way, and this seems to point out the fact that they have succeeded iu doing so. A chicken and waffle supper was served to about twenty-five people, including the team, the two instructors and some few invited guests. It is needless to say that every minute of the time was enjoyed by the participants. The time the eating was going on was enjoyed especially by Irmschler, Kern, Zellers and Mutchler. After the meal was finished a number of toasts were proposed and joined in by all preseut. A number also responded informally, upon their being requested to speak. Later in the evening the Rod E” was presented to the sixteen players present. The E” is the reward given to any player having played six full halves.

We hope that next year's team will eclipse all former ones. The dance was held on December 22nd. All of the players were present and many of their friends. The hall was beautifully decorated and twenty-four dances were enjoyed by all present. McKinley day, January 29 190«. Pink carnations were worn by all the school in honor of our martyred president. The songs were heartily joined in, showing that as time passes and fades away in the distance, the memory of that glorious man is becoming fresher and that in years to come he will be thought even more of than he is to-day. THE ALUMNI SCHOLARJHIP. On February 9th, Dr. Warfield, president of Lafayette, spoke to the school upon the subject of. “College Education.” At the same time he announced that a request of a committee of the Alumni Association had received a favorable answer from the Board of Trustees and that beginning with the class of 1906 there would be two scholarships instead of one offerred to the male members of the class. The new one is to be awarded to the young man, who in the opinion of the Alumni cannot get the needed and deserved training in any other way. This person must stand within ten of the head of the class and must have a good reputation. The Class feels much honored that it should be the first to have one of its members receive this valuable prize. 106th DAY One hundred-sixth Day. our first Senior exercise, was celebrated on March 5th. Our class did away with much of the expense heretofore indulged in, by using a novel plan of decorating the Assembly Room with the scenery of the play. By this plan, a student's room was erected on the platform and decorated in Buff and Brown,” and numerous High School pennants and posters. 121 The talent displayed by our representative speakers, shows up well for the class. All acquitted themselves creditably. The class poem was especially well written and read by our talented poetess. Miss Marion Weaver. It is unnecessary to mention any others, for all were stars. The one-act farce Silence is Golden” was well acted and well received. Every member of the cast played well. Mr. Mutchlcr's acting was natural and effective. The music during the exercises was rendered by the Mandolin Club. The benediction was pronounced by Rev. Plato T. Jones. OUR ANNUAL PLAY. The great question asked at the beginning of the year,was concerning the possibility of the High School giving auother play as good as the one of last year. It has been answered; we have done so; we have done more ; wc have passed that mark. - The play chosen for presentation this year was The Friend of the Whole Family.” It was a piece demand- ing good acting by the cast and of course Mr. Snyder the coach demanded good work on the part of the choruses. The particular star of the piece was Mr. Walter Mutehlcr. whose interpretation of the part of Professor Louis Geldhabcu, the German Boarding-school master was pronounced by the critics to be equal to professional acting. His songs. Tootsie Wootsic,” I'm so lonesome” and Lena Kline” carried the house by storm each night. Mr. Kahn did very good work in the part of the Friend of the Whole Family. His songs Captain Kidd” and Foolishness” called for many encores. It is enough to say that Miss Niece sustained her reputation in this piece. For she sang beau- tifully. Her acting is always of the finest. Miss Price also did very good work in the part of Angelina. The show was a great success. It had to be repeated a third night for the benefit of those who could not get seats at the other performances. This alone proves our success. HUTOR1CAL E-fXAY CONTEXT The Fifth Annual Historical Essay Contest, in which a prize of ten dollars was offered by the George Taylor Chapter, D.A.R., took place in the auditorium of the school on May 18th, 1908. The subjects agreed on by the Faculty and the D.A.R. as suitable for competition were Light-Horse Harry Lee.” Logan, the Indian Chief,” John Dick- 1« inson, the Penman of the Revolution,” “The Walking Purchase.” “The Beginning of the American Army” and “The Beginning of the American Navy.” The whole class competed this year, handing in fifty-six essays to the Faculty judges. Mr. Sigrnan, Mr. Mc- Ilhancy and Miss Cope, who decided that the best six were— “John Dickinson, written by Laura McKeen. “The Walking Purchase.” written by Helen Barron. Logan, the Indian Chief,” written by Harry Cyphers. John Dickinson.” Mildred La Barre. Light-Horse Harry Lee,” Kate Ernst. The Beginning of the American Navy,” Arthur Beilin. The program was brightened up with music by the Mandolin Club, and also a violin solo by Mr. Harry F.ichlin, ’09, accompanied by Mr. Straub, ’08. The judges. Dr. Evans and Messrs. Prof. Lerch and Rev. Leinbach, had a difficult time in deciding which of the six was the best; all were decidedly well-written. They finally decided that Miss Ernst was the deserving one. 1 � 3 Papers Handed In to the English Department The Fox and the Grapes Joseph P.

I � 4 A Vision of the Past THE past rises before me like a dream. Again we arc on the threshold of a new life, at the Temple of Knowledge. We hear those new words— “ periods,” professors, “courses. We see hundreds of young gentlemen and ladies who look down upon us, as though we were a flock of sheep without a shep- herd ; and in those assemblages we can now recognize friends formed through our school organizations. We see how, upon the first morning of school, the seats could not be found, and the manner in which the upper classmen directed us to the wrong places. We hear the whisperings of dread and fear of the place and its occupants, by the infants” as they arrive home. Some tell tales of how the Prof.’s use such dreadful long words,” which they (the green ones, not the Prof.’s.) cannot understand; how they arc puzzled to find the proper recitation rooms; how they ore misguided in their wandcriugs when lost; and their ignorance of those foreign words in Latin.” And all this passes away as the school year closes, and we hear of stars,” conditions,” demotions” and “ promotions.” And behold ! We are transformed from a “ band of green Freshmen” into a husky bunch of Sophomores.” Again we look. We see that a goodly multitude have left our ranks, but those remaining, still cling to each other and establish an organization, known as the Class of 1906.” The spirit of brotherly love and contentment reigns—we «tow have our turn of the joke on the new Freshmen. Much of the “ newness” has disappeared from the countenances of the” Sophs,” and they really appear as wise fools,” until Father Time records another year as belong- ing to the Past. Yea, verily, verily I say unto you, a vision rises before me, showiug that a still less number return unto the temple. And now we hear them termed Juniors.” They plan a desperate meeting. Yea, verily ; and their president is stolen from their meeting, but the meeting ensues notwithstanding ! The boys in their new black suits, and the girls in their neat white dresses, all came to order. Many colors arc proposed ; finally, huff and brown” are chosen as the favorite colors of the class. And then a club (alias a Frat.,”) is organized, and its name is immortalized in the annals of the Sunday Call. Again we look. We see the merry faces at all the dances. We hear the loud “ Ray-cheer” at the games. 1 5 We sec the majority of the football team, as also the track and baseball teams, come from our class. And Hail! A grand program is rendered on “ Arbor Day. And then—a miraculous transformation ! Heads erect; shoulders well thrown back—recognizing no one but a classmate, or perchance a teacher—with the admiration and awe-stricken gaze of the others who term them— dignified Seniors;” we see the same people, who seem to have gone through a meta- morphosis. Long-drawn-out words expressing deep philosophy, arc characteristic of their reverend speech. The successful dances, the best play in the history of the school and elaborate exercises on 106th Day, next pass before my eyes. The mandate, by a majority of the Class, was that Cap and Gown” should be worn at Commencement Exer- cises. Alas ! The time is come when we must leave the dear old school on the hill-top. The past rises before me. Again we stand on the threshold of a new life. Again we hear the sounds of part- ing : The music of a fond farewell to our old school and the voices at home praising us for our heroic accomplishments at school. We sec the pale faces of those who anxiously await their “ standing” in the class ; and the flushed faces of those who know they arc to be the recipients of an ”honorary oration,” and graduate “cum laudimus maximus.” We see exciting ” Senior meetings,” and hear the spirited arguments of the dignified participants. We lose sight of them no more. We are with them when they enlist in the great army of toilers. We see them part with their dear old Alma Mater. Some are looking for the last time into the recesses of a well-used ” Virgil” or ” Trigonometry.” We hear words of sorrow as they lay away those books forever. Others are transmitting “ponies” to those poor under, graduates who intend to travel the blissful path of Rest. Some arc receiving encouraging words from the teachers. We see them part; we see them roasted ” on Class Day. We see them in their highest dignified air on Commencement, in caps and gowns, delivering orations on most grave subjects, after the fashion of Cicero and Demosthenes. They cease to be students of the Institution ; they are now Alumui. We see them all, as they proudly ride away with their diplomas under their arms, hoping to keep these testi- monials as a token of accomplishment forever. We still observe their movements. We are by their sides in the army, in the navy, at the universities and in the commercial world. We see them all, as they reunite again on Alumni Night in the year Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-six, as they all give a whooping long Ray cheer for Easton High School and for the Class of “ Naughty-Six.” Bkimn. 126 McPherson’s Family Theatre SELECT AND REFINED VAUDEVILLE Cellar of Easton High School.

One of this sort I have just received in my morning's mail. I will fsLSSsJ faithfully record it as it may be of interest to others besides myself. It reads thus : Easton Hicii School, Mar. 16, 1906. Mr. Editor, Dr.An Snt:— I write to let you know some of the things which have been happening in the old place. Yesterday and to day have been the two, most peculiar in my experience. Yesterday as you doubtless remember, it snowed all day long. The temperature was below zero. As usual, however, almost all of our class. ’06 were present, we having no fear of the elements. We huddled together in the main room and shivered, for following his regular custom, “Liberty had failed in the time of need and the inter- ior was colder than the exterior. The words seemed to cut the air with their distinctness at first, but in a short time we all noticed that they were gradually becoming intelligible. In half an hour we could hear nothing, but the fever was on us to talk, (as usual), so we yelled away everything that came to our minds. We became very much frightened after a time at this strange phenomenon. We lost our heads and Ikd from the building, knocking people down in our flight. For six hours 1 pondered over this strange event and tried to decide on the cause, for when wc reached the warmth we found our voices as good as ever. I could not decide until, while lying in bed it struck me that our words had frozen in the air. As the sounds left our mouths they were taken up by the molecules of the air which, being cold, retained them, thus virtually freez- ing them. From this I received my cue. Early next morning I would hurry down to school, and as the building heated up I would hear all that had been said. I did accordingly, and on entering the building, heard a strange whizzing sound proceeding 130 from the Assembly room. I hurried thence and could distinctly hear the words forming in the air. The cracking of the conso- nants and also the soft sounds of the recurring s's were all very plain to me. Gradually the words formed, and I was able to pick out the following:— There goes twelve o’clock, now you must go, Ben. — (Vi Hively). I once had a girl in Washington, but she shook me, and after that I gave them upL — (IF. Bull). “Lila Kline always was a good friend of mine even if “Rube” and “Bill did try to cut me out.”( . Chidsey). I'll go in Fred's with you now if you will only promise nte my “Price. —(IF. MuUhler). There may be lots of Smiths as you say. but there is only one in the world for me. — (.V.. Price). “'Some people seem to like sweet beer. Bah! Sourbeer for mine.”— ( ?. Hack). Its strange, but whenever Lafayette play Princeton, my hopes and fears arc always with Princeton.”—( ?. Coyle). Order! Why, when I conduct the A. A. meetings we have perfect order. They all seem afraid of my commanding presence.'—( ?. Giet). Suddenly I heard the shuffling of feet which always announces the approach of “Liberty. He seemed to pass me and go up to the desk. I turned to bid him good-morning, but he was not there. 1 then remembered that he had passed by me yester- day as the sounds were freezing. Quiet, Please, was dinned in my ears continually, but now at least I could laugh at it for. to the best of my knowledge, at that very moment our stentorian-voiced principal was calmly taking his sweet repose.” I could also plainly see the strutting of Cyphers up and down the aisles, and hear the laughing of Irmschler, the melodious ( ?) singing of Wolfe, and the voice of Miss Heil speaking at such speed, however, as to make it impossible for me to understand what she was saying. The fact is I heard almost everything that had taken place. It was great sport. Hoping this will interest you and that I may see you soon.

Mr. Editor, Dear Sir: I am the President of the Class of 1906, Easton High School, and have the had(?) habit of being an awful spooncr. I would like to break myself of this habit, but as yet have been unable to do so. Could you aid me in any way? If so, I would appreciate it very much. Until I hear from you, I am.

Mr. Hart Chidiey, Dear Sir: Your letter is only one of the many I have received from that illustrious class. My advice is to watch two people who feel like you now do on that subject, on some dark night, and then you will see yourself as others see you. I think that will cure you. Respectfully, RKCHAUFPft. Easton, Pa., June 24. 1906. Mr. Editor, Dear Sir: I have been trying vainly for the last four years to get a nun.

'55 First Junior Class Meeting =0ows3= On Thanksgiving evening in 'OS. The Junior held their very first meeting. To keep it a seerct they all did strive. For they feared the Senior's warmth greeting. They uied all precaution for self-defense That they could possibly devise. And some of the stunts that they performed Were certainly funnier than wise. For instance, George Hohl, for fear he'd be caught By the Seniors so wicked and cruel Concluded Twere best if he'd go that night Arrayed in the dress of a girl. So they all assembled at an early hour Not � 0 very long after-tea— At a very large (?) place called Vandeveer Hall There uninterrupted to be. Eaeh girl had her mother for chaperon And their music was extra finc( ?) They had good(?) dancing and 01 such fun, And their ice cream( ?) was simply divine. They stayed long enough their colors to choose And then this great (?) meeting adjourned. For they were afraid some sleep they might lose And they hadn't their lessons yet learned. So home they tramped about half-past eight, With happy hearts and gay. Didn't everything go off just great ? One Junior was heard to say. The Way He Talks eJCSis When there i� no good lime at night. Net day. the pupil it quite bright. He knows the lesson from end to end For hours of study he did spend In truth to make him very wise And bright and open are his eyes Between his words there are no balks. And-this-is-just-the-way-he-talks. But when there’s a basketball game Or he goes out to see his “Mame, Or there's a good show at the park Or he gets home—when it's not dark. Or he has toothache all the night. And at sunrise his face is a sight. Next day around the room he gawks. And-this is—how he-----------talks. Donald Andrkw Shkrmak, '07. Will. IN THE NAME OF GOD.

Kenneth Kerx, G. O. (Greatest Orator) J—Call your first witness. Q.—Miss L. Coyle. Miss Coyle, will you please state all you know of this horrible crime? A.—On the twenty-fifth of March I was walking along Ber- wick Street, (the street Miss Hively lives on), and as I ap- proached the house. I heard the sound of beating coming from within. When I reached the front door, Mr. Boyle came running out He was holding his one eye. from which the blood was streaming. After him came Miss Hively. flourishing a broom- stick. Q.—Are you sure it was Mr. Boyle? A.—Positive; why. I saw him over there so often that I could not have mistaken him. Q.—Do you know of anything tlut would lead you to suspect Miss Hively of treating such a good friend in this manner? A.—Well. I heard that Mr. Boyle's frequent visits to P. Burg angered her very much, and that she threatened to hurt him if they did not stop. 0—That will do. Mr. Mack, will you please tell all you know? A.—All I know is, that I saw Mr. Boyle one morning with a black eye, and when I asked him the cause, he said despairingly. “Vi got up in the air and biffed me one. That is all I can tell. Q.—That will do. Miss Heil, I believe that you sat some- where near the contestants in school? A —I did. Q.—Did you ever hear anything that would lead you to suspect Miss Hively of ill-treating Mr. Boyle? A.—No, I did not. They always seemed very chummy to me. Q.—That will do. An eloquent speech by Mr. Kern, in which he pleaded with the jury to convict Mr. Boyle. An eloquent speech by Mr. Chidsey, which led the jurors to weep in the box instead of in their handkerchiefs, and later led them to bring in a verdict of—not guilty. The two principals shook hands, and from all accounts, will be as good friends as before. The court congratulates them.
