Faithful, studious Sophomore!

History. In order to appreciate the state of civilization of the present time, it is necessary that the student have a systematic account of the origin and progress of the world. In the Edgerton High School, three years of His- tory are presented, all of which are required for graduationf This work consists of one year in General History, one year in American History, one-half year in English History. and one-half year in Civics. General His- tory is studied in the Sophomore year, and the others in the junior and Senior years. Mathematics. In this day and age of the world. to exist one must be skilled in logicg or at least have some knowledge of the science and art of reasoning cor- rectly. For by being familiar with symbols one can exercise the mind more distinctly. The course offers four years of Mathematics. One year is given to Arithmetic. One and one-half years are given to each of Algebra and Geometry. ' i Language. Language, in its broadest sense, embraces all efforts to observe and study the facts of human speech as detached from their subjective identity with thought, and reviewed objectively as parts ol a mechanism for the com- munication of thought. Two languages, English and Latin, are studied in the Edgerton High School. Latin is .not a compulsory study in the course. Substitutes, such a Higher Arithmetic, Agricultural Psychology, etc., may be taken. Many fail to appreciate the value of this dead language, but when seriously considered, it is found to be very instructive in many ways. The First Year Latin consists of the forms and constructions, the Sec- ond Year, Caesars Gallic Wars are studiedg the Third Year is 'spent in Cicero's Orations. In the Fourth Year Virgil's Aenid. It is one of the most celebrated poems and is valuable for its literary, reminiscence. Science. ' j The Study of Science is perhaps the most interesting and most instruc- tive in the Course of Study, Not being able to deal justly with the different subjects, during the four years of High School, several minor forms are studied in the grades. In the High School one year is given to Physicsg and one-half year is given to each of Botany, Zoology, Commercial Geog- raphy, Agriculture, Physical Geography and Psychology. The studies of Physics, Botany, Physical Geography and Zoology, are studied by those who take a four year's course at the High School. Music. Music is the science of combining tones in melodic, rhythmic, and har- monic order, so as to excite the emotions or appeal to the intellect. For untold ages .it was purely emotional. VVith its development as a science, in the Middle Ages, it appealed almost entirely to the intellectg this species of music culminating shortly before 1600. At the present time, that music is considered best which appeals both to mind and emotion. The Study of Music is not offered in the High School Courseg but is taught in the Grades by the Assistant, Miss Clements. Course of Study-English. The study of the English language requires more careful study than any of the other branches. It is more important to humanity. in general as it is impossible for any person to heeome a clear thinker, or a good con- versant, without a fair knowledge of the mother tongue. In the grades Language and llranunar are taughtg in the lligh School Rhetoric is studied during the l:l'CSlllTlIlIl and Sophomore years. .-Xmcriean and English Classics are read inthe .Iunior and Senior years. .Xlso, .Xmer- iean and English literature are studied. Besides taking the regular examination on the Classics that are read, the students are obliged to write themes. which give them a broader View of the suhject' matter. - PROVERBS. To win the game of life, always discord from weakness. It's the size of a 1'I1Ell'l'S heart that counts, not the size of his head. lie good: hut also he good for something. Half the joy of life is in little things taken on the run. Progress is made hy work alone, - Life is not so short hut there is always enough for courtesy. Failures are hut pillars of success, The man who cherishcs no hopes has no disappointments. fm KG ,, 1 QL! H RK H0555 lja Z bf 0 ,,.4, :u-IGB? HO ...J I7 S JJ wg -1-11: LECTURE COURSE. VVe believe in the Lecture Course as an adjunctto high school work Its aim is to instruct, inspire and entertain. It brings the best of talent to our little city and permits us to receive the inspiration and moral uplift, the idea of progress and modern thought, that 'every student and person needs to make their education more ccmplete. The Lyceum is peculiarly intended for the young people, as they progress into the fields of education and wisdom, because it holds before them ideals of attainments that are possible for those who are willing to put forth the effort. Its tone is one of culture and refinement. The artists, who appear in their various lines of entertain- ment, are artists, because they love perfection and have diligently striven to reachthat ideal state. It is this cherished state that is held before the student-perfection. , . Perfection only comes through diligence and perseverence. Culture rises from a love of perfectiong progress is the creature cf high idealsg great works spring from the ruins of greater projectsg above the life that is hang eternal models of a life that is possible, and the measure' of man's greatness is the quality of his aspirations. Therefore. we believe the Lecture Course worth while, for it aids in the uplift of young and old alike. The following is the list of talent that have appeared upon the High School Lecture Course in the two vears that we have had charge of it: l9ll and '12-The Kafhr Iloy Choir, Euclid Male Quartettteg Ned NVoodma.n, Cartoonistg Dr, A. XVatkins. Lecturerg A, E. VViggam, Lecturer, This talent was furnished by the Coit Lyceum llureau. 1912 and !l3-Music Makers' Quartetteg Hon. J. G. XVhitiug, Lecturerg Tahan, Indian Lecturerg Emily XVaterman Concert Companyg Montaville Flowers. Lecturer with illus- trated acting. This talent was furnished by the Rednath' Lyceum llureau. All the numbers, in the two years, have given satisfaction, many of them even excelling our brightest hopes. This vear we had the largest season ticket sale in the history of the Lyceum in Edgerton. Let the good work go on. It reflects honor on the school and the people, who support the Course. . THE STAGE SENIOR CLASS PLAY.

' Little did the juniors think while making preparations for the reception in honor of the Faculty. and '13 Seniors, that 'ere it was over their names would be dragged down into history. The acting president, Miss Callendcr, spread the news that the banquet would be given at Hotel Mortland, on the eyening of May Zlstg and so, as the clock was striking the hour, the Seniors accompanied by the Faculty, made their way to the reception rooms where the Juniors were assembled. .Xt sight of the elaborate costumes worn by them, the Seniors were afraid to enter and stood outside amazed. llowever they soon recovered from the shock and could hear the acting president Miss Callender giving orders and a few simple rules of etiquette fwhich up to this time the other members of the class had never heardi. Her words were plainly aucliblei to those on the outside and they taking courage straightway entered. After a few words of greeting from Miss Callender the company pro- ceeded to the banquet hallg all in the highest spirits. except Miss Fusselman, who was weeping bitterly because she was not allowed to march with her soul mate, Ruby Foulk, lt seemed to be an evening of disasters. XVhile the guests were 'being seated at the designated places, Mr. Kil- linger, tforgetting the solemnity of the occasionl moved a chair from its place, and caused the' aristocratic Miss XValling to camp herself upon the floor. The Banquet Hall was artistically decorated with the class colorsg and .-'Xmerican Beauty Roses were strewn around with lavish profusion, but what were these compared with those Fluffy-Ruffle Iunior girls, with baby faces? One of them in particular was an object of interest the whole evening. The curiosity was Norma Gabriel. ln the reception room she carried something in her hand which re- sembled a silver dollar. But is was not a dollar. 1 It was a little mirror, and while seated at the table of the waitresses noticed her casting admiring glances toward that littlei mirror which was upon her lap. And she a junior. Suddenly a great commotion was heard. and all wondering at the strange interruption, turned to investigate. , And lo, what a sight. There stood Marie Van Dusen. in the doorway. preparing an apologetic speech for being so late. Her hair was Howing in the night air. and she carried a banner with the inscription E Pluribus Unum-In God VVe Trust. But instead of filling the vacant seat at the table, she marched around it like a Roman Sentinel, much to the disgust of those partaking the deli- casies before them. Miss Barnes was mortitied at such actions from her own classmates as she sat there so sedate. Finally she began to hum, If all the rest were just like me. Mr. Krill had a new tie Qmatrimonialj, and Miss Gabriel, disliking it, stayed at home. The figurehead of the class, Mr. Hopkins, presided at the head of the table and ate his soup with a fork. Arthur Cover, forgetting the fact that he would be called upon for a toast, sent his valet to fetch his bible, that he might be able to quote a pas- sage appropriate to the occasion. The Juniors, wishing to be original, chose from their number, Mr. Clem VVorthington, and Miss Edna VVoodward, of Routes No. 1 and No. 2, respectively, to furnish the menu for the last course, which was to consist of Schlitz and pretzels. Mr. Viforthington, being a strict prohibitionist, thought he would put one over 'em, so in place of the beverage he fetched some delicious ice cream from Butler, Indiana. Miss VVoodward, resenting this ommision, refused to hand over the pretzels, and hid them under the table, The obliging Mr. Krill offered instead a box of Cherry Flips which were consumed sine mora. At the completion of the courses Miss Callender announced that a motion for adjournment was then in order. Several among the motley throng cried, Pass the finger-bowl. As Bess VVilkinson thought this was the conclusion of the affair, she took the bowl from the Waitress and hastily placed it to her lips, thereby quenching her thirst. ' ' After this breach of etiquette she proceeded to pass it on, when the bowl began to wabble, and she clumsily let it fall. She nearly drowned poor, little Iennibelle, who sat- under the table munching contentedly at NVoodie's donation. To this day it is not known whether Miss Favorite selected this abode of solitude on account of mere timidity, or because she was shocked at the shameful maneuvers of her classmates. After the disturbance and laughter had been smothered, Mr. George Spake arose, and proceeded to render his notorious eifusion, A Bunch of Forget-Me-Nots, but while thus engaged he became greatly embarrased and exited and snipped off the end of his tongue. Of course he was disabled by this extraordinary accident, and being unable to finish his production, Mr. Ray Maier then came to his rescue. He gave a very interesting talk on VVhat They Do in the Navy. Mr, Killinger ,then thinking it was time to vamoose, arose, spoke a few words of farewell, after which the Royal Entertainers and their guests departedg the latter thinking that this was the most extraordinary, and orginal banquet they had ever attended. ANON. Fair is foul, and foul is fair, Hover through the fog and filthy air. Shakespeare. k l i WHAT THE SOPHIES DID. . There is no other way about it! remarked Jack Langdon to an indig- nant crowd of Sophomores who had gathered to the far end of the level, green campus on the third day after the school year had begun. VVe as Sophomores must have our rights. It is not only our privilege but also our duty to attend to it that these dear little Freshies do not take it into their inexperienced craniums to grow into niaturity too fast and thus blast all future hope of Success! VVhat matters it if the faculty do oppose and even threaten to use physical force for the offence? It is only what the Sopho- mores for years back have been doing. H If tliey Qthe facultyj are here to tight us folks, why. we will fight them, came an exasperating' voice from the motley throng, Sure thing, remarked a boy of large stature. Jack 'Langdon was the ring leader and speaker of the troop. For he was born to lead and naturally took a moreelevated position among his class- mates and along with this he was very popular among the boys, as well as with the.-opposite sex. VVell, suppose we begin. I am in favor of it and will follow your orders. How about the rest of you fellows? spoke Batty Logan as he turned to inspect his companions. I Ditto!,' Ditto! came in chorus from the boys. VVe'can't rush things too much andytoo soon, remarked Dick Pateson, a staunch friend and admirer of jack. If it were not for that French Prof., he continued contemptuously, 'fthere wouldn't be such a fuss made over it. A Hully Gee! cried Batty Logan in his blazing red sweater and his cap pulled half way down over his eye. If there he don't go this minute! Talk of the dev- ' No, it isn't,!' cut in Blake. Itis a Freshie, a new one just arrived todayg was downto the depot and saw him rfet off, and as the boy drew nearer they saw this was really the truth, although they could scarcely believe their eyes. , 'I lVell, I declare! muttered jackg he has that same hateful bearing of proud contemptand presumption. I wonder if it could be that they are re- lated! -As he passed, one of the boys saluted him with Hello, you Freshief' but the Freshie merely poised his headihigh in the air and passed with a conceited look upon his face. Holy Smoke! but ain't he haughty P said Batty. It's my opinion that he should be the first to come down off of 'his high horse? . The boys immediately took a dislike 'to this fellow. lt was bad enough to he a Freshman. but to be a Freshman and look and act the same as the hated French Prof. was really unendurable. So it was decided that they should meet at this same place on the next day at six o'clock, and the boys disbanded and grouped off in twos and threes as was their wont. The next evening acrordingly thev all met at the 'required place and time, and the French Professor wondered not a little at seeing so many Soph- omores gather from all sides of the campus and start toward a particular tree where already a small crowd had gathered. The boys, unaware that a pair of sharp eyes were watching them from the window of the dormitory nearby. assembled and it was reported that the Freshman had not been seen since he left the grounds about live o'clock VVell, he'll have to be on the grounds by seven o'clock according to rules, so We won't have to wait very longf' Everything's all ready now, if he would only.come, remarked Dick. Very well, said Iackg then let us go to the eastern entrance. very likely he will enter there and it is farther from the main building. Humph! remarked the owner of the pair of eyes in the window. 'Those boys are up to something. I'd better keep my eyes on them. So he decided to go out of the north entrance, walk around outside the wall and enter at the east, thus coming unexpectedly on the boys, and tind out the motive of their actions. ' The boys thought to baffle any of thefaculty who might be watching their maneuvers, byiparting and some going in a round about way to the entrance, others straight through, so it would not seem that they were all headed for the same place. But they could not fool the French Prof. The boys, some of them' standing, others sitting in the shadows of the stately elm, but most taking refuge against the wall so as not to be seen. were awaiting the signal of the spies. A tank of water was placed on a straight line not far from the gate. Une of the boys had secured several stale eggs from the grocery on the corner just outside the wall and placed them in a handy and safe place, Shi-I came from a spy. Here he comes, just turned around the corner of the wall. Yes, I guess that's him all right, said jack, Keep quiet, everybody, he commanded. Now line up on each side of the gate and when he comes in you, Hmotioning to Dick and Blake, the boys next to the entrance, catch him and push him down the line, but don't be too roughf' , I guess he Won't be quite so independent and bold in the course of an hour or so, remarked Logan. I-Iushl ejaculated jack, here he comes. .lust then a figure entered the gate and no sooner had he stepped inside than he was caught with a wild halloo by Dick and Blake, who sent him sprawling on between the line of excited and eager boys, where he received from each a push. kick or cuff. Wheii he reached the end he was unceremoniously dumped head first into the tank of water. After he was thoroughly immersed he was drawn from the tank. Then procuring the eggs, the boys proceeded to hreak them on his woolly pate and allowed it to run down his neck and face. Thinking he had had enough of this, -Tack cried. Now, fellows, for the tree, and catching hold of him, the boys dragged him to a young tree near by and giving him a boost, sent him up to the first branches, and then by means of pushes and paddle prepared for the occasion, and now and then a prick with a pin, they forced him to go higher up among the branches. A pretty looking spectacle he made perched in the tree with his clothes and head dripped with water and eggs. The boys then made him sing, Oh, how green I amg Oh, how green I X am, Nobody knows how green I am, with a promise of freedom after this accomplishment, ' But just at this interval the boys, turning at the sound of a whistle, saw to their astonishment the despised Freshman gaily returning to the dormitory. The Freshman ! muttered Logan. Oh! Heavens! ejaculated Uickg we've persecuted the French Prof! The boys regarded each other with panic-struck faces. Let's beat it, remarked lilake, as he gave a farewell glance to the hideous spectacle in the tree. Suiting the action to the word, the boys faded away. each making a sprint for the dormitory. leaving the bedraggled and forlorn professor to make his way to the ground in a very different manner from which he had ascended. BETTY VANDUSEN, '15, LAST, BUT NOT LEAST. The fire was blazing in the fireplace, a11d the shadows danced over the wall to the music of the crackling flames. Outside 'the wind roared and the driving snow was piled high on the windowsills. About the hearth the family was grouped. Grandfather rested in an easy chair in the warmest nook. Mother sat close by with the baby in her arms, while father drew his chair into the shadow. Isabelle sat with her dark head bent over a late novel by Robert XV. Chambers. Edgar, a boy of fourteen, crouched at his mother's feet with his head against her knees, and Dorothy, a quiet girl of twelve, with large, questioning eyes and yellow curls, cuddled against her grand- father's shoulder with her soft white cheek close to his pale, withered one. jerome, a rolicking boy of nine, rolled on the rug at his father's feet. Suddenly sitting upright he called out, Give us a story, Grandfatherg it's such a jolly night for a storyf' ' Yes, do, chorused Edgar and Dorothy. But Isabelle, who had just celebrated her sixteenth birthday, wrinkled her pretty nose in scorn. Such childishness! And, resting her chin in her palm, resumed her reading. ' VVell, asked grandfather, 'fwhat kind of a story do you want? In- dians? Soldiers, or what? j I should like one about fairies, but Isabelle, with a glance at her sis- ter, says I am too old for such things. f Oh, no!', objected Jerome, 'ftell one about bears and forests. Q Tell us about your youth, Grandfather, insisted-Edgar. And what do you want, my lady?,' asked Grandfather, looking at Isabelle. , Oh, I should prefer a romance, but I don't believe you could tell one, you never have, remarked that fair one, loftily, You win, returned the old man, and I shall tell you one that is true. A long time ago, he began,j there were bears, forests and fairies, and I was young. Yes, very young: seventeen, I believe? Isabelle sniffed audibly. I wanted to be married, he went on, ignoring the interruption. You see, I had met a fairy,.and like all fairies, she cast enchantments, and like all mortals, I was enchanted. So bewitched was I that I lay awake at night planning a way to make'her my ownf Much to my delight and dismay, I became aware that I was in love. ' At first I imagined I would go at once and tell the maidl-I should have said fairy-but my knees trembled at the thought. Finally I gathered courage enough to consult my father, He was very kind, but he said l should make a home for her before I asked her to be my wife. After much persuasion I decided to do so. ' ' Father gave me sixty acres, and helped me to clear one corner for my house. At first I worked with feverish haste. I progressed so slowly I began to lose courage. Father laughed at me and said what a line husband I would make. This pricked my pride and urged me to do my best. But he did not always jeerg he encouraged and helped me at every opportunity, although he 'said he wanted me to do it all myself. At last my house was finiished. Ihad been almost three years in preparing it. All the time I had been courting in my bashful Way. One day father suggested that I tell her. So I donned my best suit and boiled shirt and sallied forth, feeling certain she could not -refuse one who had worked so hard for her sake. VVhen I reached her home I saw through the window another occupying my accustomed place. Startled, I stood there a moment uncertain what to do. Then I saw him rise and hold out his hands. Glued to the spot, I saw her, without a moments hesitation, cross the room with her arms outstretched to him. Forbearing to look upon such a scene as I knew would follow, I turned and fied. Here the old man's voice broke as he lived over the agonizing hours of the past. How I reached home that night I never knew. Seven weeks later I married my cousin, Jessie Ferguson. She was a good wife and I think she loved me, but my heart was with the other. Have I mentioned her name? It was Margaret. Isabelle's Ibook slid unnoticed to the floor. Dorothy sobbed aloud, and mother brushed a tear from her eye. ' Jessie only lived a little over a year, he continued. VVhen she died I took some provisions and started west. I got as far as the Mississippi river when I was overtaken by a messenger from home informing me of the serious illness of my mother. I returned just in time, for she passed away a few hours later, Then I set about helping my father on the farm. On my twenty-ninth birthday my oldest 'brother and I started out to fell trees. VVe liad cut one tree almost through and had stopped to rest when we noticed that a strong wind was blowing. Wishing to get the tree down before night, my brother and I began to chop on opposite sides. The tree trembled, and at a call from my brother I began to run. But too late, the tree, forced by the gale, fell with a crash. I was pinioned to the earth by the heavy branches. Two days later I was aroused to consciousness by cool hands on my forehead. VVhen I opened my eyes I was looking into the face of Margaret. I whispered her name, but she cautioned me to 'be quiet. As I lay there it occurred to me that she had never married. VVhen I felt better she returned to her home. Having sufficiently re- covered, I decided to spend a few days in the open air. My father suggested that I ride to a neighboring town for diversion. Accordingly, one bright morning I set out. The road led between high crags and through the shady aisles of the forest. Before me stretched the road flecked with patches of sunshine. As I rode, enjoying nature at its lovliest, I was startled from my reveries by a scream. Tugging at the rein, I drew up my horse at the side of the road, and noticed a path crossing the main road a few hundred feet in front of me. Suddenly a horse dashed down the path, turned into the road and came pounding toward me. As the frightened beast rushed past me I saw he was saddled with a woman's saddle. Knowing something was wrong, I dismounted and, slipping the bridle over my arm, started along the path down which the horse had come. I had only gone a little way wlieniT savv a girl lying huddled up by the roadside. Turning her face upward, I beheld the white features of Margaret. The blood was dripping from an ugly gash on her forehead. I staunched the blood with my handkerchief and sank to the ground.beside her. Her cheeks and lips were colorless, but I could feel the throbbing of her heart. Lifting her in my arms I carried her to a small- brook flowing near by and tried every means I knew to restore respiration. Soon my efforts were rewarded and the slow color began to return to her face. Then she drew a sobbing breath and sat up. 'With my aid she succeeded in rising, but as she did so gave a little stifled gasp and lunged forward against me. She had twisted her ankle cruelly. After a' short time she consented to make another attempt -and stood firmly upon both feet. Wfe both agreed she was more frightened than hurt. Since her horse was gone, I insisted that she accept my mount. As we passed up the lane to her home, she riding and I walking close beside,I asked her the question I had come to ask ten years before. A deep Hush Hooded her cheeks and mounted to her brow, and a soft light nlled her eyes as she leaned forward, and with her lips close to my ear, murmured 'Yes. ' LOUISE RICKERSON, '15 I THE TWO LETTERS. A letter from-ah! I thought that was from brother, but that is not his handwriting. lfVho writes to me besides my brother? No onef, said Alice, eagerly opening the latter. The envelope fell to the Hoorg her hands trembled as she read: Dear Alice,-You will no doubt be surprised to get a letter of this kind from some one you don't know and perhaps have never seen. I see you pass my study window every time you go to or from your work. You are very beautiful, so slender and straight, and sweet as a rose of june. Your pretty hands are as white as a lily. The flush of your cheeks is as the tirst bud of the morning. Your laughing lips have the color of a scarlet geraniumg but your eyes. how can I tell you of your eyes? They have the beauty of calm, wide waters when the setting sun has given them that wonderful color. S Some day, perhaps, we shall meet face to faceg then you will give me your permission to tell all that is in my heart. Until then remember me only by what I have said in this letter. Because I love you, Alice. Your Unknown Lover. Alice looked at the letter in wonder. Her first love letter! She ,still stood where she had received the letter from the postman at the door. I am going to have a secret, she said, all to myself. No one will know I got this and I will try to lind out who the writer is. l won't go to work today, but stay at home and help mother. She knew she dare not stand there long or she would be caught. So she folded the letter, put it in the envelope and ran to her own room, where she deposited it into safe keeping. She then hurried to the kitchen. so her mother would not suspicion anything. As she entered the door, Dick Evans appeared in the door leading from the garden. He greeted Alice and her mother in a neighborly way and picked up one ol' Mrs, Sherman's fresh made cookies and sat down in the doorway. Alice went about her work, but her thoughts were busy trying to read the mystery other letter. Dick finished his cookie and got up to go hack to his work. Say, Mrs. Sherman, said Dick, taking another cookie. you're one of the best cooks in this country, and Alice is another, I know, because I ate a piece of a cake she made the other day. It was simply scrumptious. That's all right, Dick: just come in any time, youre always welcome. I suppose you're glad to get hack from college again. said Mrs. Sherman. Yes, I am glad to get back. but I had a mighty good time while I was there those four years. Are you going back again? . No, I'rn through. I think I'll stay at home this summer and help dad in the store. XYell, I'l1 have to go back or I won't get that lawn raked before dinner. 5 The Evans family lived next door to Sherman's and Dick, the only child, had been given the finest education and was now spending his summer vaca- tion at hom-e before he took up his fall work, as professor in the college of his OW11 Clty. p V He was a fine looking fellow of about five feet ten inches in height and his broad shoulders gave him a look of strength, He was a very jolly fellow, always in for a good time, and every one knew he would make a fine professor for the college. Alice excused herself early from the drawing room that evening, and hurried to her room, but it was many hours before she slept. She took the letter from its hiding place and read it again and again until she knew every word of it. VVhen at last her eyes closed she felt the letter crushed in her hand. XVhen she entered the dining room the next morning, she did not look like the same girl she was two days ago. She had an older look, one of more responsibility. XVas she more beautiful? Yes, far more. She looked so much different her father could not help saying, Alice, you look so well this morning. ' I am, father. I feel fine. Shermanis were wealthy people and Alice, her only sister, Edna, and her brother had had good educations, ller sister, being younger, was still in college. Alice was twenty-one and far more beautiful than her sister of nineteen. VVhen Alice went to her work on this particular morning, she was very careful to observe the windows along the street. In one she saw a young man sitting at his study window. .-Ks she passed he looked up from his work. He was no one she had ever seen. Could this be the one who had written the letter? A week passed and Alice heard nothing of her lover. A week from the morning on which she received her first letter, the postman brought her an- other written in the same handwriting. Alice hurried to her room, seated herself and read: Dear Alice,-A week since l have written to youg it seems an age. I have told of my love in the previous letter. I can only tell you it grows more every day. 'tif you are displeased with me, I have a way of knowing. Do not ask how? If you are pleased. this evening, put a rose on your front steps. Your Unknown Lover. That night, when the moon and stars appeared. any one who was watch- ing would have seen a beautiful girl, dressed in blue, appear on the front veranda with a rose in her hand, and go to the steps,-where she laid it down. She returned to a chair near the door. She sat there scarcely a minute, when she arose and almost ran to the steps. She snatched it up and hurried in the house, while her cheeks grew crimson with anger. 'What was I thinking of? she said. as she ran to her room. The one watching her thought a great deal more of her for that act. One afternoon not long after this, Dick came to the veranda where Alice was sewing and sat down beside her. Fine afternoon for a stroll, Alice, said Dick. I am busy with my sewing this afternoonf' was her answer. That sewing can go till some other day. This is such a splendid day, you cannot afford-to miss this walk. After about fifteen minutes of coaxing, Alice finally relented, a little unwillingly. 1 1 g .F VVhere will we go? said Dick as they started off. Let's go to the violet patch, down by the river. I like violets and they are out so pretty now. All right, that's where we will go. They walked toward the river, but had hardly gone a block before they met the man Alice had seen on that morning after she received her first letter. Alice felt a little uneasy, because he watched them so closely. VVho is that?T' said Alice to Dick, after they had passed. I don't knowg I have seen him, but I think he hasn't been here long. W'hen they came to the violet patch they sat down on a log to rest and pick the violets near them. Your eyes, said Dick, are the color of these violets. They look like the calm, wide waters when the evening sun has given them that wonderful colorf, - , Did you write those letters P said Alice. with a Flash of those beautiful eyes. Yes, dear, was all Dick could say. Alice fell to the ground disappointed that it was only Dick, but after a little consideration, she knew she loved him. Dick tried to make the best of it. 'Why don't you think me capable of writing letters like that P Yes, but I never thought of such a thing as it being you. Don't you believe I meant it ? said Dick. Yes, I suppose you did. Dick drew a little box from his pocket, which contained a small diamond set in a dainty ring, as he said, Alice, will you accept this F Her voice was so low he hardly heard the answer. Yes, Dick, she murmured, MARJORY SHARP, '16, GIRLOLOGY . GIYIS are things easy to get, but hard to get rid of tsometimesj.

This phase of our school life has resulted in arousing a school spirit which is not to be equaled' in other institutions, in which atheltic training has no place, Athletics in the High School are always met with some opposition by those who do not understand the con- ditions of school life, although this faction is in the minority. It is thought by some that the school should hold rigidly to the text-book, in order to fully develop the intellect. But can the mind develop without the aid of a strong body? Also, is there anything else which will develop the body as thoroughly as clean athletic sports? These are questions which confront every student during his school life. and we are glad to note that they are answered in the negative by a majority of the High School students of today. Athletics in the High School always bring forth keen rivalry within the school and the schools of the different cities and towns. Can we find a better incentive for the intellectual development of the mind than rivalry, and. where there is rivalry in athletic contests it will naturally have the same result along other lines. Vile find in human nature that spirit which will not allow a man to stand by and watch another excel, without himself putting forth his greatest effort to secure the coveted reward of perfection. ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION. President ........................................ .... E dwin Krill Secretary ...................... ...... R ay Maier Treasurer and Facility Manager ........................... ll. V. XVidney Eitudent Manager ........................................... Earl Wfeitz In October a meeting of the Athletic Association was held and the above officers were elected for the year '12 and 'l3. The different teams were organized and preparations were made for the season's games. The three forms of athletic training were basketball, football, and baseball. Of these three, basketball was the most prominent and we look at the record of our teams with much pride and satisfaction. lVe wish to take this opportunity to thank our patrons for their support which has made it pos- sible to finance our games without much trouble. BASKETBALL. The varsitv teams, both boys and girls, started to practice in October and socnt the t'me before the opening game in strenuous work, well know- ing that the old adage, practice makes perfect, would apply in this case as in all others. Our two coaches, B. V, VVidney and Prof. C. B. Riggle, worked hard and it was due to their efforts that we were able to put out two very strong teams. The boys proved to be very fast, but were handi- capped by their inexperience, this being practically the first year in the game. Nevertheless they played some of the best teams of Northwestern Ohio and of Indiana, winning their share of the scheduled games. The boys out- THE GIRLS H. S. BASKET BALL TEAM classed their more experienced opponents in a number of the games and we have found several stars of the future in the team of '12 and '13, The girls proved to be one of the fastest teams in this part of the state, win- ning five out of seven games played. Their playing was characterized by team work which is an essential to the game. The girls spent much time upon signal practice and their plays were so intricate that they baffled their opponents to such a degree that the team always compiled an overwhelm- ing score. There were many on the team who-starred individually and therebv made team work a possibility. This was by far the best team ever put out by the E. ll. S., but let us hope that the team of 114 will excel as did that of '12 and '13. Teams were organized by all the classes and basketball within the leligh School has been very successful. This gave a chance for all desir- ing to participate in the games played and these contests awakened within all of the.,studcnts that smouldering spirit of contention, with a view of excellence. which is the life of a progressive people. As a result of these interclass games school spirit arose to its height and the enthusiasm dis- played well repaid us for the ellorts put forth to promote these games within the school. This year of basketball in the E. ll. S. has been the brightest of any in the school's history. Let the good work go on. Girls' Basketball Team. V E E. Callender-Ii, tCapt.l M. Gabriel-E. ll. Mann-G.

Great interest was at stake for this game as it would show the merits and strength of the teams in the first real struggle and also in future games. Notwithstanding the odds in favor of the Hoosiers it was an easy victory for both teams of the E. H, S.. The boys score 18-8 and the girls score 12-6 gave confidence to the players and the basketball spirit gradually increase. Nov. 8, 1912. Pioneer vs. Edgerton at Edgerton. This was the first game played on the home floor and resulted in the score 6-9 'tgirls'l and ll-28 tbovsl in favor of Pioneer. The spirit manifested was great. Though the outcome was disastrous for both teams, the visitors departed feeling that the F. ll, S. had a place in the inter- scholastic contests of the county. lloth of the Pioneer teams held the championship of Northwest Ohio, while this was but the second for Edger- ton and in view of this fact the outcome was no worse than might he expected, . Nov, 15, 1912. Montpelier H. S. vs. Edgerton at Edgerton. This was the second game played on the home Hoor and in which we were alittle more successful. The girls won the laurels 4-2g the boys losing 20-30. There were many doubts as to who would he the victor in this battle, though Montpelier closely rivaled Pioneer and was struggling for the championship. l-Iowever the boys defeat was counterhalanced since the girls retained their portion of the honor. This victory was a stimulant and a spur for the girls and they practiced :tealously for the next game. Nov. 22, 1912. Bryan vs. Edgerton at Bryan. Though the boys were defeated 2-l-19, they outclassed their opponents in skill and general playing but the fact that the game was played on llrvan's Court. will. doubtless prove that we were entitled to it. The Ed- gerton girls won .8-6 in a hard fought struggle by virtuous playing. Their skill taxed the strength of their opponents to the utmost yet Bryan was unable to hold them down. Although Bryan had a much heavier team they were unable to cope with the victors. Nov, 28, 1912. Pioneer vs. Edgerton at Pioneer. The outcome of these games was what one might expect. They out- classed Edgerton in general playing and skill and the advantages gained bv playing on a familiar floor are important items which attribute to our defeat. Bovs' score 35-17, girls' score Z3-8. Vtle were unable to outscore them in spite of our strenuous attempts, ' Dec. 6, 1912. Montpelier vs. Edgerton at Montpelier. Granting Montpelier the favor, 53-14 was an overwhelming defeat for the boys' team. On account of sickness, the captain was unable to play and so the team was generally broken up and its fighting strength mater- THE FRESHMEN GIRLS' BASKET BALL TEAM ially weakened. Defeat was getting to be quite a habit but we then vowed to win hereafter or quit. The girls easily won their game 9--l, outclassing their rivals in every phase of the game. These Montpelier and Pioneer games? would have been wisely sched- uled had they been placed later in the season, when by experience and practice we would be more able to contend successfully with these stronger teams. But these were the only available dates so they were taken, Dec. 13, 1912. Butler H. S. vs. Edgerton H. S. at Edgerton. The outcome of this game looked doubtful though ,both Edgerton teams felt. confident. llutler also felt sure of the game as they had not been defeated since their other game with Edgerton. The game was well attended and the crowd went wild when llutler proved no match for the locals. Edgerton? signals worked perfectly and we scored repeatedly. Score 38-26. The girls had a simple walk-a-way in their game, scoring 24 points, leaving. the opponents 9. Toward the end of the game the visitors from the neighbor state wished they had stayed at home that they might retain their record. Jan. 3, 1913. Concord'Teaehers vs Varsity Boys at Saint joe, Ind. The Teachers had practiced hard, made vast preparations and had high expectations for this game. lint all this was in vain for they marched to the tune' of 23-16 in our favor. They were amazed when they saw the ball quickly pass from one to the other of our players. The game was easily won. ' , This was the last game played by the E. ll. S. though their schedule was complete up until the latter part of March. llaving been deprived of their hall and unable to secure Zl'l0lllCI' suitable they were forced to abandon this branch of athletics fol' tl'e remainder of the season.

Forward Louise Rickerson .................................................. Sub. VVhen the Sophomore girls organized their basket ball squad it was a double team. Betty Van Dusen and Louise Rickerson were chosen captains. The girls' intention was to have two teams to play against each other for practice, and to choose the best six for the interclass games. Some of the girls, however, were forced to give it up, a few because their parents dhap- proved, some because they were not allowed time for practice, and for various other reasons, until there were only six or seven left, of both teams. The Dreadnaughts played three games. The first, with the Freshman girls' team, the score was 6 to 9 in favor of the Sophomores. The next game, with the junior girls, the tallji 'board showed 3 to O in favor of the Juniors. Neither of the regular Dreadnaugh gaurds played, their places being filled by Edith Thomas and Louise Rickerson. Not one field throw was made during the game. The only scores made were free throws. The game was fast and exciting, and both teams deserve credit for good work. The last game was a return play with the Freshman girls. Again the Sophomores were unfortunate enough to lose in a score of 8 to 2. Although the' girls were defeated they still remain undaunted, Each individual of the team is fast. but alas, sometimes so fast they don't see where they are putting the ball. The greatest fault of the guards, guard- ing over, was due to the misunderstauding of the rulesg this however, has been overcome, The girls are to be encouraged in this healthful sport. Next year, when the basket ball season opens, the Dreadnaughts intend to show their mettle and skill in the game. L. R., '15. THE BASE BALL CLUB I BASEBALL. Baseball is one of the most prominent forms of atheltic sports in the E. ll. S. The school for many years has put out a winning team, success- fully coping with the teams of larger schools. As we look back over the past records' we are impressed with the large number of games won and the comparatively small number of games lost. lleretofore the people of Edgerton and surrounding comnuinity have patronized the games quite liberally and we feel that this season will prove to be no exception to the rule, P Up until the present time a few games have been scheduled with pros- pects of more. jTl1e season is now well on its way, and although we are not able to innumerate the results of the scheduled games on account of this issue going to press at an early date, yet we hope that the standard of teams will be upheld by the team of the present season. The school in recent years has put out several who are now playing professional baseball. There are still some remaining in our midst who are destined to become the equals of Cobb, Mathcwson, Marquard, llflurray, etc. Some school believe in confining their athletic sports to the school itself, but these are few and of minor importance. llowcver we maintain that these interscholastic meets bring out the true, quality and ability of the participants, and thereby increase the school spirit and interest. 44 THE FOOT BALL TEAM FOOTBALL. Football, one of the most strenuous of atheltic contests, is one that tests the strength, grit and manhood of the participant to the utmost. Some have a misconception of the game, thinking it to be exceedingly rough, brutal and dangerous. This may be true in some cases but it is only where they do not understand the game. It is truly a scientific game requir- ing active brain work as well as physical power. Football when played according to the rules and in a sportsmanlike manner should have a place in High School athletics. It builds up a rivalry and creates an invincible spirit which is characteristic to every youth. ' Accordingly, with good material to choose from, a High School team was organized early in the school year. After a few weeks of training and signal practice the team was in fairly good condition. A practice game was arranged with the Basket Factory team which resulted in a score 0 to 0. This game was mainly for team work regardless of the result. Manager Rigle tried to arrange a season's schedule but it was found that most of the surrounding High Schools had abandoned this branch of athletics and so was unable to secure anl games. Games could have been arranged with teams other than High School but it was decided that rather than play these heavier teams the game would be dropped and we should bend our efforts toward producing a good basketball team. Had a football schedule been arranged, the E. H. S. would have, without a doubt, won its share of the games. Sept b Sept CALENDAR iff - N 1 'E,VN ar el .Q .

May we cherish the remembrance, Of 1913, E. H. S. Every nook and every corner, And the school room's merry throng Of bright and happy faces Leave impressions deep and strong, Of the greetings on the playground, On the steps or in the hallg But those days for us are ended, Past and gone beyond recall. Tis sad to part with those who taught us For our welfare and our gain. Urged and helped us with our lessons That we honor might obtain, Love, for those who were so faithful. May our friendship ne'er grow less, Place them foremost in remembrance Of 1913, E, H, S. Oh! the games and the amusements And the good times in the hall XVe would have most every evening VVhen we practiced basketball! lVe would play as we had studied, Strive to do our very best. Gone! Those days are but a memory Of the past with all the rest. Vtfe were oft' with mischief grevious Of harmless pranks we had a store. lVe were never quite exhausted ' Could always chase up many more. It was never done for hatred, , Though hearts oft' with grief were wrung It was only done for mischief The characteristic of the young.
