D. RENKENBERGER Superintendent “Y 4 Mr. Renkenberger is a Noble County4 man, having received his common an high school education at Avilla, In- diana. After graduation he taught eight years and then entered Wabash College. He completed his course there in 1906, received an A. B. degree. For four years he was an instruccior in Bradley Polytechnic Institute, Peoria, Illinois, and for two years taught at McKinley High School, St. Louis, Missouri. While located in St. Louis he took graduate work at Wash- ington University. Last year he held the position as principal of our high school. The. past year he took upon his shoulders the responsible position of superintending the wayward and self-willed school children of this city. He has been successful in his work and stands high in the opinion of the high school pupils. 97 ‘ WILL FRANKS Mediaeval and Modern History Mr. Franks began teaching in 1878 in Noble County. He afterwards taught at Corunna and since 1887 he has been a member of the teaching staff of Gar- His education ’ reit Public Schools. was received in the rural schools of Wooster, Ohio, and later in the schools of Corunna, Indiana, the Auburn High School, and Valparaiso University. Mr. Franks teaches the eighth grade and the Sophomore History class in High School. EWiMA ELVIS Music and Art Miss Elvis was bornin Medford, Wis- consin, where she received her early education. After graduating from the Medford Hizh School she attended the University of Wisconsin and _ while there she took special work in Music and Art. Miss Elvis began teaching at Cle Elum, Washington, and remained there two years. Last fall she came to Garrett and has won distinction by the rapid progress made in all music and art activities. ELIZABETH BRITAN English Miss Britan is a native of Hanover, Indiana. She attended the common schools and Hanover Academy and after finishing this part of her educa- tion she entered Hanover College and graduated there in 1911. The next year she taught English at Paoli, In- diana. The following year she remain- ed at home, teaching Latin in Hanover Academy. Before she came to Garrett she spent two years teaching English at Rockville, Indiana. She came to us last fall and undertook the almost hopeless task of endeavoring to inter- est us in the more serious ithings of life. As we are very grateful for any favors shown us we appreciate to the utmost ail the efforts she has put forth in our behalf. af GEORGE CARROLL Principal Mr. Carroll began his life in this big city of Garrett. He was faith- ful in his attendance at school and graduated from high school a very sedate young man. He spent two years in studying at Northwestern University and the following three years at the University of Virginia. On returning to Garrett last fall he received the position as Principal of the high school, He has made school life very agreeable throughout the year by his pleasant and kindly ways and has gained the respect and co- operation of the student body by always setting for them the ‘best of examples, which they are all in- clined to follow. DORTHA CLARK Latin Miss Clark first learned the mean- ing of amo, amas, amat, in Dana, Indiana. Here she attended the com- mon and high schools and graduated with the knowledze of having been a diligent student throughout the course. She took professional train- ing at both Earlham College and the State Normal School. She came to Garrett last fall to take charge of the Latin depart- ment. Her work in this subject has been so efficient that she has gained the respect and admiration of the entire High School. DON E.

He came to the High School last year full of deter- mination to succeed in imparting to us a part of the vast store of knowledge that he possessed. In this respect his success is very apparent. He is inter- ested in all outdoor sports and during the past two years he has been the very efficient manager of our high school athletics. FLORENCE DOBBRICK Domestic Science Miss Dobbrick as well as several other of our teachers is a G. H. S. alumnus. Her common school edu- cation was obtained at three differ- ent places—Defiance, Ohio, Bay City, Michigan, and Garrett, Ind. She graduated from high school in 1912 and then took a_ course in Domestic Science at Oxford College, Oxford, Ohio. She has been teach- ing in the high school here for two years and if one can judge the quality of eatables by their odor this would certainly verify the state- ment that her work has been a suc- cess. She also has charge of the Sewing Department in the grades. WILLIAM F.

Seniar Class History On September 5, 1912, fifty adventuresome students set foot for the first time, in the Assembly hall of the Garrett High School. During the first few weeks that passed, by the many little acts and blunders they became well worthy of their humble name, “Freshmen.” The sophomore boys did their utmost to extend a hearty welcome to our class. As a result, much mirth and commotion was caused when the “initiated Freshmen boys” appeared with part of their locks missing. They were not completely subordinated, however, and because of their courage, steadfastness, and good endeavors, they won the good will of the Faculty and tellow classmattes. When school opened Septemiber 8, 1913, loud and confident steps made known the arrival of the “know-it-all” Sophomores. One by one those who were not “stickers” had departed from us. There were but thirty-two en- rolled in our class. The Faculty consisted of Mr, Merica, Superintendent, Mr. Antonides, Principal, Miss VanAuken, Miss Thomas, Mr. King and Miss Berry. The main feature of the year was getting acquainted with Caesar. We entered the Junior year, fully convinced that High School life is the “best to be had.” Our number had d windled to twenty-two. We organized the class, electing Charles Shannon President and Alfred McCracken treasurer. Our teachers were all new to us with the exception of Mr. Merica and Miss Thomas. Mr. Renkenberger had become our Principal, Mr. VanFleit our Geometry and Science instructor, Miss Enloe the Latin ‘teacher and Miss Dobbrick was placed in charge of the Domestic Science department. It was in the Junior year that we arrived at the safe and sane conclusion that “It doesn’t pay to try to put it over on the teachers.” The Junior class was marked by their wonderful power of adopting the ways and manners of society. In 1915, for the last time, nineteen of us assembled. As requested by the members of the Faculty, we set numerous examples to the undergraduates in regard to deportment. Mr. Renkenberger was now our Superintendent, with Mr. Carroll as Principal, Mr. VanFleit Science instructor, Miss Britan English teacher, Miss Clark Latin teacher, Miss Dobbrick, instructor in Domestic Science and Sanitation and Hygiene and Mr. Schoenike in charge of German and Manual Training. Our organization as a Senior class was effected with Charles Shannon as President, Jeune Milholand as Secretary and Alfred McCracken as Treasurer. Shortly before Christmas preparations were begun for the publication of our Annual, the second ever attempted in this High School. We the members of the class of 1916, realize that the laying of the foundation of our life work is as yet incomplete. Yet as we go forth, free from the protective seclusion of our high school home, each one of us, with cur own ideas and ideals, we feel that we have been well paid for tne time and energy which we have spent to attain that amount of knowledge which we now possess. Regardless of how high we may climb, or how near we may attain our ideals, we shall always look back to the dear old H. S. days, and sincerely regret that necessity demands tthe breaking of fond associations. And so with sorrow, and yet with joy—we say “Farewell.” RUTH GALLATIN 1916 Class Officers CCH: seictaoam Gulden dm Hot ptro.can ocean cc. decrtapD OU SIAM USI Mice President: ccc cicce istcte aya crete s oie n n= nis peirisiave ans wien Fah Howard Hershberger Serre AGUITO Rc x stsvere ce clole cielo. etalerer orto) stehortvinn0 esi eBoy s Tear Sieh st tke coup oNake. aes 4 Secretary hsy-cy airs os cre heia mie nis niet eels, ima) «lol !syn) siele) 2° aig agaeges suey Class Flower—Dark Red Rose.

There we had all of our class meetings and all of our arguments with Mr.. Renkenberger. We became so accustomed to gathering in this room, that we took upon ourselves to name it Our Home.

At last on September 8, 1913, we entered the Garrett High School, as Freshmen, to be laughed at, especially by the Sophomores (now Seniors) who had displayed their unequaled greenness the year before. Later on they all had to acknowledge that we were the most intelligent class that had ever entered high school. Mr. Anitonides, the principal, instructed us in Physical Geography, Miss Camp in Algebra, Miss Sembower in English, Miss VanAuken in Latin, Mr. Franks in Ancient History and Miss Berry in music and Art. Miss Sembower, having taken the solemn vows of matrimony, left Dec. 1 and was succeeded by Miss Thomas. Jan. 1, Miss Camp left to teach in Arkansas and was succeeded by Mr. King. Since all social affairs are bad for timid freshmen, we spent all of our time studying. We resumed our duties the following year but our number had de- creased from fifty to forty. The building had been redecorated and lights had been installed, consequently many social affairs were held. Two literary societies and a debating club were formed. Mr. Renkenberger instructed us in Agriculture, Mr. VanFleit in Algebra, Miss Thomas in English, owing to the death of Miss VanAuken, Miss Enlo in Latin, Miss Debbrick in Domestic Science and History and Miss Elson in Music and Art. This year seemed to be more successful in every way than ithe previous year. When we entered upon our career as Juniors, we were the largest Junior Class (38 in number) that had ever entered the Garrett High School. The Assembly Room had been enlarged and apparatus for laboratory work had been installed. Mr. Carroll instructs us in Geometry, Mr. VanFleit in Geometry and Physics, Miss Clark in Latin and English and Mr. Schoenike in German. We now have an organization with the following officers: Dewey VanLear president, Charles Butts vice president, Florence VanFleit secretary and Vesta Marvin treasurer. And in regards to Athletics I might mention that during our high school career we not only upheld our position but also did many things too in upholding the standing of our dear old school. Through- out all our high school career, we have been recognized as having a number of excellent base ball players and last year the base ball team was composed of our classmates. In addition to this five were chosen for the relay races which were held between Garreti, Auburn, Waterloo and St. Joe. So in clos- ing this year we think we have lived up to our motto, “Nichi Vollendet aber Angefangen,” or “Not finished but begun.’’ In our Senior year our aim is to excel all our previous records, not only in number but in all scholarstic activities.

Sophomore Class History Although a class young in years compared with our honorable Juniors and Seniors, we are proud of our Sophomore Class. Why shouldn’t we be? As a Freshman class we made our debut in High School with sixty-three members. Our initiation into High School was one to be remembered and we all took our hazing like the martyrs during the time of Alexander The Grea. Striving with great effort for a few months, we finally gained the recognition of the faculty. Then through the faculty came the inspiration ‘to make the Freshman Class one of intelligence and diligence throughout our four years in High School, I wonder if ‘the Juniors can say that? About the third month of school we were grieved to know that one of our “cause-much-commotion” classmates, Charles VanLear, had found an- cther suitable way to employ his time. About that time, also, Marjorie Wright and William Walter decided to attend other High Schools. s Many small amusements were put forth by the Freshmen and as Sophomores they are still leading the High School in such trivial diversities. At the end of our first year we were nearly all of us glad and proud to find ourselves Sophomores. It was also such a relief at last to know we were nearing a three months’ vacation. What more could we happily wish for? On September 7, 1915, we gathered once more, for the beginning of our second year. After much discussion as to whether or not we should haze the Class of 1919, we decided to give them a party. The party proved a success and we hope that the forthcoming classes will follow our example and do away with the old idea of hazing. We were willing to journey along with the number of fifty-two Sopho- mores, although we missed many students with whom we started. After the end of the first semester we were proud to find that the Sophomores had the highest average of attendance, deportment and studies. We are still en- deavoring to “make the better-best” and are hoping that we may continue through our Junior and Senior years with a record as good as has been made in our Freshmen and Sophomore years.

It has a membership of seventy- eight students. On the first few days of school the Freshmen were not by any means at their ease. They continually made mistakes and even committed such a grave error as leaving the Assembly Room at the wrong time. The laughs were ell at their expense and they felt miserable. In the midst of all this difficulty, however, the Sophomores passed a rule to the effect that they would not haze the Freshmen. They proposed as a substitute a reception to the class of 1919. The entertainment was a royal one and has resulted in the development of the good feeling which exists in the High School. The Freshmen are extremely appreciative of this Sophomore courtesy. The course of study for cur grade consists of English, Latin, Algebra, Domestic Science and Manual Training. The Freshman class has always endeavored to take part in every school activity. The Domestic Science class has given a six o’clock dinner and a cafeteria luncheon to the members of the School Board and the Faculty. Some have taken an active interest in both literary societies while others represent the class on the High School athletic teams. In baseball Pitcher Freeze and Fielder Steckley are members of the first team. The Freshman class.is very grateful ito the teachers and students who have made this year such a profitable one.

Accordingly they decided ito organize two societies, with a view of acquainting the student with the methods of parliamentary procedure in ad- dition ito the literary training which would be obtained. Our society has at ail times aspired to mlake more complete and pertect each consecutive pro- gram. We are especially proud of our debators, who have discussed such present day topics as Government Ownership of Public Utiltties, Preparedness, Initiative and Referendum, Student Government, and Commission Form of Government. Of equal importance have been our original papers upon many subjects of vital interest. Our musicians, too, have played no small part in making our programs entertaining.

The object in organizing this society was to increase if possible the interest of the students in all literary work. Miss Thomas and Mr. VanFleit were chosen as teacher advisors and under their guidance great progress was made. Programmes,’ consisting of musical numbers, readings and debates were given every six weeks throughout the year. The society gave a reception to the Adelphian Society at the school house one evening in January. Music and games were features of the even- ing’s entertainmeni. A joint programme with the Adelphian Society was ‘given in May and this program marked the close of the year’s work along literary lines. The society reorganized in September, 1915. Its work with the aid and co-operation of the faculty has been progressing steadily and has proven very beneficial to every member. ALICE HARSH.

It was held in the Odd Fellows Hall, May twenty-first, nineteen hundred and fifteen, at eight-thirty p. m. The two main rooms were decorated with the class colors of the Seniors, purple and white, and on the north side of the dining room, in the class colors, was placed the Senior Motto, “Genius without culture is like silver without a mine.” On the south side, in maroon and old gold was placed the Junior motto, “Man must not merely first learn and then do, but seek to learn by doing.” In his toast Mr. Greene remarked that the Juniors should receive praise for choosing such a splendid motto. Life Mr. Charles Shannon and Jeune Milholand seated the forty people and the Rebekah ladies served the banquet. The menu consisted of six courses and between the courses a delightful program was given. Charles Shannon delivered the Welcome Address and Mr. Talbert the Response. Mr. Merica related some Reminiscences which were very interesting. Ruth Gallatin gave a violin solo which was followed by talks, by Paul Carnahan on the Faculty, by Ferris bruce on Deportment(very personal), and by Howard Hershberger on the class of °15. A quartetie composed of Burmadetta Johnston, Alice Harsh, Alfred McCracken, and Howard Hershberger furnished some splendid music, After- wards Mr. Renkenberger spoke on Physical Culture. Other toasts followed, ene on Farewell by Miss Beatrice Clear and the Response by Miss Harriett Clark. Parties, Klr. In early November of 1915, seven Seniors, two former classmates and the godfather of the class had a marshmallow roast and chicken supper at the bome of Agnes Strause. The evening was a most delightful one, and the crowd was so occupied tthat the class missed the last car to Garrett. November 27, 1914, the Junior class was entertained by Alfred McCracken at a Progressive Party. Mr. and Mrs. Merica were guests of honor. February 18, 1915, the Junior boys entertained the Junior girls at the home of Bernard Elam. Mr. and Mrs. Merica and Don VanFleit were guests of the class. The flag which caused so much commotion in September held a prominent position in the parlor and all Juniors loyally saluted it upon entering. The three-course supper was enjoyed by all—the boys prepared it?!!? The evening was spent in playing games and holding contests. On Monday, May 24, the Juniors and Seniors 715 expressed their regret over the departure of Miss Thomas by giving a party in her honor. She was presented with a desk clock. Music and dancing took place after the refresh- ments were s erved. On March 19, 1915, the Junior girls banqueted the Junior boys. The school house was decorated fitly for a St. Patrick’s day celebration. The party was a huge success and all the members of tthe faculty were present. The annual Junior Senior picnic occurred May 19, 1915, and was an event to be remembered. The classes of 1915 and 1916 were present to a member. The time was spent playing pall, taking pictures and picking flowers. The spread consisted, for the most part, of roast bacon and burned coffee. The Seniors had a supper at Hoover’s on the evening of January 8, 1916. The girls played marbles while the boys played with dolls. Othmar Moore was the guest and entertained the class with some of the newest college music. The Senior girls entertained Miss Enloe at a pot-luck supper October 6, 1915, at the home of Miss Florence Reneman. In addition to the class, Mr. and Mrs. Renkenberger and Mr. Schoenike were present. Music was the feature of the evening. On February 25, 1916, the Senior class enjoyed a pot-luck supper at the home of Miss Reneman. The evening was spent by playing games and singing. The vaudeville stunts of Mr. Shannon afforded much amusement. Mrs. C. E. Gallatin entertained the Senior class at a six o’clock dinner Friday, March 3, 1916. The house was decorated with the Senior class colors and a three-course dinner was served. Between courses each member present discussed the subject written on his place-card. The speeches were as follows: Mr. Herhberger gave a very ardent talk on “Love.” Miss Tindall, “Matrimony.” Mr. Smith, “Geometry Tests.” Miss Sanders, “Studebaker.” Miss Strause, “Divorce.” Mr. McCracken revealed some very interesting facts regarding, “The Art of Bluffing.” Miss Gallatin, “Fashions.” Miss Reneman, “English Classes.” Mr. Elam spoke on, “How to Become a Six Footer.” He expressed his regrets in not purchasing long trousers sooner, as he is confident they added six inches to his height. Miss Schunk gave an historical talk on “Cases I Have Known.” Mr. Hoover, “Cub Reporting.” Miss Harvey, “Cupid’s Darts.” Mr. Hays, “Aeroplanes.” He informed those present that if he ever perfected his machine he would try ‘to fly high enough to find out how Old Ireland got her name. Miss Horn, “Hicksville H. S. vs. G. ise Re Miss Milholand, “Champagne and Champaign.” Miss Johnston, “Purdue.” Miss Harsh, “The Faculty.” Mr. Shannon was toastmaster and critic. The remainder of the evening was spent very pleasantly by listening to Mr. Shannon’s description of “School Life in Ireland.” §1 ITHLETICS BASE BALL TEAM wm mn ’ Hudson Hays, Secty.; Don E.

Our team won by a score of 13 to 3. Jack and Kline formed the kattery for Garrett. Garrett 4, Waterloo 3, On April 24, after a week of hard practice for both teams, Waterloo again came to Garrett. More interest was shown in this game and the visit- ing team showed more opposition. Garrett won 4 to 3. Hicksville 9, Garrett 3. On May 1, the Hicksville team journeyed to our Hoosier city. After a hard struggle they succeeded in capturing the game by a score of 9 to 8. Garrett 6, Butler 2, Losing the previous week’s game aroused a new interest and encouraged more practice. Therefore when they met Butler on the home grounds, May 8, another game was annexed, the score being 6 to 2. Garrett 6, Auburn 3. The following week found the Garrett team playing Auburn at Auburn. The latter team did not put up much resistance and Garrett was the victor to 3. Garrett 4, Auburn 3. On May 22, G. H. S. team with a company of rooters made an appearance on the Auburn diamond. Excellent playing was executed on both sides. Breathless interest prevaded this game, the ninth inning ending in a tie. In the first half of the 10th, Garrett secured ‘he deciding count. Score 3 to 4. Garrett 9, Hicksville 6. On May 28, the Buckeye team was greatly surprised when the Garrett team took the game 9 to 6. Garrett was much elated and therefore easily impressible as some of the female population of Hicksville may remember. Butler 9, Garrett 4. Garrett, not being used to playing all day and carousing all night, when they met Butler at Garrett on the following day lost the game, score 9 to 4. This ended the spring season. Garrett 2, Waterloo 0. The ball team organized at once upon returning to school and on Sept. 11 , Waterloo .played here. The Waterloo team did not seem well organized. Our team secured its first shut out 2 to 0. Garrett 1, Waterloo 0. Auburn 3, Garrett 2. On Sept. 25 a “double header” was scheduled at Garrett. Waterloo and Garrett were to play first and the winner was to play Auburn. In the first game Waterloo did not secure a score and the result was 1 to 0, in itself tell- ing the interest which was involved. After a brief intermission, Garrett again went into the field, commencing the game with Auburn. Although Jack had worked hard in the previous game he pitched go od ball and permitted scarcely any hits. It was due to lack of support that Garrett lost the game, score 3 to 2. Zhis game marked the close of the H. S. ball season. An Expression of Gratitude The Athletic Association wishes to express its gratitude to Hon. H. W.

In a five-mile relay race held alt Auburn on Thanksgiving day, the Garrett team finished second, losing first place to Auburn by only a few feet. The teams of Waterloo and St. Joe High Schools finished third and fourth respectively. Garrett lacks adequate facilities for developing a track team, but even under the conditions as they exist much has been accomplished. Track has interested in athletics a number of High School people who ctherwise would have taken no part in such activities. The High School hopes to be able to send a team %o the Indiana interscholastic next year, as well as to meet several neighboring schools in dual meets.

JOHNSTON Laugh and the teachers laugh with you Laugh and you laugh alone, First, when the joke is dear teacher’s Second, when the joke’s your own. I want to be a Senior And with the Seniors stand, A fountain pen stuck in my hair, A note-book in my hand. Right ther e amid the Seniors, So trustful and so bright I write a dandy essay And dream of it by night. Seniors were born for great things Sophies were born for small; But it is not yet recorded Why the Freshies were born at all. FRESHMAN POETRY. ’Twas midnight and the setting sun Was rising in the far, far west, The rapid river slowly run, The frog is on his downy nest, The pensive goat and the sportive cow Hilarious leap from bough to bough.

Lawson Talbert down in Physics class Was not paying attention; (How he was otherwise occupied, I promised down to mention). Our teacher though, is a curious man Says he to “Tal,” “what’s that?” But before our “Tal” could answer, “That’s a Senior, shure!” says “Pat.” The high school paper is a great in- vention ‘ The school gets all the fame; The printer gets all the money And the sitaff gets all the blame. Miss Clark—‘You may name the cases,” Confused freshie—‘Nominative, Ac- cusative, Genitive and Senior.” Miss Britan in Eng.

I There is a boy in our class For fun we call him, “Squint’’; As to his height and nose, Dame Nature, she did stint. ; II Now “Squint” is real well meaning And not intentionally bad; But he will have the very last word If such is to be had. Ill This “Squint’” attended a lecture Delivered by Mr. McNutt; McNutt he lectured loud and long About schools being in a rut. IV Next day old “Squint” made it a point To be preoccupied, And when questioned as ‘to why he did, “IT was thinking,” he replied. Vv But pride and youth, they both will fail The same with me or you; Lo and behold! to “Squint’s” dismay The teacher had been ‘there too. Ankes MELO-DRAMA Says Pat, “I smell vanilla.” Says Doc, “Well, I should judge The girls down in the cookin’ class, Are all a-makin’ fudge.” II So Pat and Doc and Mart and Pill Plot deen, to get down there To where the fudge is being made By all the maidens fair. Ill So Pat he asked to be excused And Pill, he wants a drink; While Doc sneaks out as best he can, Mart’s health goes on the blink. IV So far so good—their little plan They all meet in the hall, And rush headlong to Domestic Lab. As fast as ’tis good for all. Vv Tommy, Peggy, Becky and Gill All a-makin’ fudge. Patrick, Doctor, Martin and Pill Are duly appointed judge. f VI Alas! alack! The teacher now butts in And points out to each erring lad Wherein his deed Lies sin!

Second Article: Unto the faculty, we will the memory of our good be- havior during our Senior year. Third Article: Unto Miss Britan. we will all of our old “Literary Ligests.” Fourth Article: Unto the Juniors, we will all of our co-ordinate and theme paper which we were accused of taking. Fifth Article: Unto the Juniors, we will also the Senior book table which was used mostly by the Freshmen. Sixth Article: Unto the Sophomores, we will our ability to edit a class paper, and also our pens and ink bottles. Seventh Article: Unto the Freshmen, we will our dear old room Seven, so they can fill the desks with paper to their hearts’ content. Eighth Article: Unto the incoming Freshmen, we will the use of the big Dictionaries which the Freshmen this year monopolized. Ninth Article: Unto the following, we as a class, bequeath our various possessions. Unto “Poor Pauline” we give about two feet of Alice’s shortness and about ten pounds of her avoirdupois. Unto Juanita, we will all of our chewing gum, stuck under the seats in the Assembly. Unto Mart, we will all of Pat’s Irish wit. Unto Dale Feick, we will Doc’s spectacles. Unto Hazel Button, we will all of Jeune’s superfluous note books. Unto Harold Kast, we will all of our tablets to be used for paper-wads. Unto Lucius Love, we will Hudson’s gentle laugh. Unto Alice Dean, we will all of our hair-ribbons. Unto Ray Schomp, we will Doc’s grind-organ which is to serve as an amusement in his dignified Junior year. Unto Juanita, Madolin and Esther, we will the name of “The Troublesome Three.” Tenth Article: Lastly we appoint Florence Dobbrick as executor of this, our last will and testament. In Witness Whereof, witness our hands and seal, this fourteenth day of April, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and sixteen, in this High School of Garrett, DeKalb County, Indiana.

Jones | North Randolph Street Phone 41 OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS The Garrett Public High School has been advancing every year and is gradually taking its place with the very best commissioned high schools of Indiana. Next year five well qualified teachers will give their whole time to the work of the High School, besides the teaching that is done by the Supervisors. Special teachers will have charge of the Domestic Science, Manual Training, Mechanical Drawing, Music and Art. The unprecedented increase in the high school attendance at the opening of school last September has brought about some inconveniences but everyone has cheerfully made tthe best of it, and on the whole, this school year has been very satisfactory. With the prospect of well over two hundred pupils next year, and with the proper expansion to accommodate them, we have every reason to believe that next school year will excel the year now closing, not only in numbers but in the character of the services rendered to !the school eommunity. The Study Halls will be increased and the laboratory equipment for the study of General Science, Physics, and Chemistry, which is already fairly good, will be extended as rapidly as our funds will warrant. The school has a small library which with the facilities offered by the Public Library affords our students fine opportunities for reference work and for general cultural readng. Our high school is a member of the Indiana High School Athletic Association and we have made splendid records both in base ball and in track work. The officials of the high school are anxious that next year our athletics take a wider variety and that practically every boy and girl can find some definite avenue for organized physical development. We want clean athletics and we want it for all the boys and girls. At present about 20% of our students are transferred from adjacent townships. Among these are some of our best students. Parents whose children are contemplating high school work should investigate the merits of the work being done by the Garrett Public High School.
