We were welcomed with a unique hazing, which took place on Randolph street, where it could be enjoyed by the greatest number of our townsfolk. But after our principal, Mr. Renkenberger, explained things to us a little more, we regained our self-confidence and in our monthly reports we sur- passed all the upper classmen. As Sophomores, following the golden rule, we rejected the idea of hazing and, instead, gave the Freshmen a reception at the school- house. This plan of a reception has been followed ever since and has proven very successful. During this year Miss Britan took a special interest in our class and when spring came she took us on early morning hikes, where we learned many interesting things about the homes and habits of our birds. We did not organize until the Junior year, and then we elected Ralph Franks as President ; Russel Sherman, Vice-president; Faunda Olinger, Secretary, and Gertrude Eagan, Treasurer. Then we de- cided on our class motto, ‘‘From Possibilities to Realities,’’ and selected the sunburst rose as our class flower. During the Junior year we had many splendid times, one of which was a party at Otto Heinzerling’s, where the boys’ quartet staged a grand success. That year closed with the annual Junior-Senior banquet, where ‘‘Little Arthur’’ won his fame of being Garrett High’s biggest man. Soon after school started last fall we elected officers again. This time Dale Feick was made President; Joe Carlin, Vice-presi- dent; Faunda Olinger, Secretary, and Florence Collins, Treasurer. The chief events of our Senior year were: The Senior picnic, held one night last fall at the sand-pit, where our ‘‘eats’’ so strangely disappeared; the Junior-Senior scrap, which resulted in a myster- ious hole in the ceiling of Room Six; the party at Raymond Ballen- tine’s; the Valentine party, where Joe Carlin distinguished himself by writing Valentine verses; the party at Lawhead’s Sugar Camp, as well as countless other good times. Thus at the end of our fourth year we part with many friend- ships and many happy memories. 25 It has been the wish of the Senior Class to make this Annual the best ever put out by a High School. We have en- deavored in this publishment to give our patrons a true and full account of the activities of our High School during the year of 1917-18. It is with regret that we have not been able to publish all lost, stolen or strayed notes or that we could not make use of much of the material received. We cannot refrain from heartily thanking those who have given us their support, especially the business men, the faculty, the students, and the parents. Through the co-operation of all these friends we have been able to make this Annual not only a surprise, but, we hope, a success.

That uneventful (?) Freshman year passed exactly as the first years of our countless predecessors had passed. We were rather rudely but thoroughly awakened from our blissful ignorance of ‘‘High Methods’’ by an enthusiastic hazing, administered by the Sophomore class of °18. After a few of these experiences we be- came more wary and at the same time more familiar with the High School life in general. Our second year was one of a self-confident, lordly nature, the unsuspecting Freshmen following us becoming the basis for this new-found superiority. During this second year, two highly-esteemed members of our class, namely, Daniel Farner and Paul Steward, left us to join the army. We were represented not only in this unusual field, but also in the various High School organizations, such as football, baseball, debating, glee clubs, and orchestra. Our Junior year has proven to be the most successful year of all. We elected Warren Harvey President of our class; Francis Moran, Vice-president; Dorotha Brinkman, Secretary; Florence Cobler, Assistant Secretary, and Paul Shunk, Treasurer. We then proceeded to assert our presence and promptly found ourselves engaged in a series of mental as well as physical combats, for honors, with our most troublesome rival, the Senior class. Fortunately for the peace of the High School, these conflicts were settled quite diplomatically and satisfactorily by the faculty. Throughout the whole year the class of ’19 has been noted for its prominence in school activities. The Juniors on the gridiron made names for themselves by their excellent work and our class was further honored by the election of our vice-president to the office of captain of the football team for the ensuing year. We hope to maintain this enviable reputation to the close of our High School career. RUSSELL UPDYKE. 30 Class Offirers Paul Olinger ..... iridostors tonic ae aaa ets ak, ae gt President Marlow.

The embarrass- ment of a ‘‘Freshie’’ and the confusion of arranging schedules, class rooms and so forth was greatly diminished, much to the disappoint- ment of the upper classmen, owing to the fact that the class bell was out of commission, thereby causing everybody a hard time in getting started. After long days filled with such mistakes as getting into the wrong class rooms, forgetting class recitations, and a general mixup of periods, we gradually became accustomed to the ways of the High School. The organization of the class did not take place until our Sopho- more year. Fifty-nine Sophomores were enrolled in September, 1917. Being anxious for’an organized class we immediately called a class meeting and on September twenty-fifth elected officers as follows: President, Paul Olinger; Vice-president, Marlow Manion; Secretary, Virginia Patterson; Treasurer, Marjorie Clark. Professor Pellett was chosen as class advisor; the violet for the class flower, and lavender and white, meaning loyalty and purity, were selected for our colors. Our class proudly claims two of America’s soldier boys Beeber and Austin Gingery—who volunteered to help Uncle Sam win the great struggle for Democracy. At present both boys are in France. Our Sophomore class has given more players to the regular G.H.S. football team than any other class in the school. The men receiving letters are Olinger, Moran, Manion, Lehmback, Scisinger, and Van Lear. The social life of our class has consisted mostly of several sue- cessful parties. As Juniors our class hopes to accomplish great deeds, and as Seniors we entertain still higher hopes of success and jwill try to hve up to our motto: : Our aim—suceess ; Our hope—to win. All hail to the 1920 class. VIRGINIA PATTERSON. 34 Edgar’ Class Officers Braneig ns tein oo ee.

War Work in the Garrett High School Although this has been a very busy year for the High School students, they have not forgotten to do their share of war work. Nearly everyone in the High School has taken an active part in some of the work. During the last week in October Mrs. John Thompson came to the schoolhouse and instructed the girls in the making of Christmas bags for the soldiers. The girls who made bags were Neva Klinger, Faunda Olinger, Margaret Mountz, Leora Trimble, Clara Higgins, Ruth Harsh, Louisa Pierce, Florence Collins, Leona Rankin, Dorotha Brinkman, and the two teachers, Miss Swanson and Miss Smith. The boys consented to help and they gave thirteen dollars, enough to fill about four bags. There were nineteen bags turned over to Mrs. Thompson, who took them to the Red Cross headquarters at Fort Wayne. From there they were sent to the various cantonments. About Christmas time, when the Red Cross was asking the peo- ple to make candy for the soldiers, the girls contributed over two hundred pounds. This candy was put up in pound boxes and dis- tributed to the various soldiers throughout the United States. Many of the girls received letters of thanks from soldiers who receiv ed the candy. When the thirty-five million dollar campaign was on for the Y.M.C.A., the boys of the different classes pledged, and later on, paid one hundred dollars for this cause. The Boys’ Working Reserve was organized during the early spring and it has steadily increased in membership until sixty boys belong. The faculty have introduced the plan of running only one session a day, beginning school at eight o’clock and dismissing at twelve-forty, in order that the boys may spend their afternoons working on the farms and in the shops. For the same reason school is held on Saturday the same as on any other week day. This en- ables the faculty to close school two weeks earlier than usual, and gives the Boys’ Working Reserve a chance to begin their work sooner. All the boys are enthusiastic over the plan and the number of members increases daily. On February twenty-second an entertainment was given under the supervision of Miss Smith. It ineluded a Red Cross Pageant entitled ‘‘The Drawing of the Sword.’’ Truth, Justice, Liberty, and all the Allied nations were represented. Each person acted his part with sympathy and force, and the play was very impressive. It left the audience with a clearer vision of what is really happening and a nobler desire to do their part in winning the great conflict. This play was given again on April twelfth and the entire proceeds donated to the Red Cross. During the Thrift Stamp Campaign, the different classes were organized into Thrift Clubs and received a certificate from the Government. Nearly every student pledged himself to buy Thrift Stamps, thus making Garrett a one hundred per cent High School. The students are very prompt in responding to the call to buy War Saving Stamps, and the sales are rapidly increasing. The Junior Red Cross was inaugurated by Mr. Pellett and he organized the girls of the different classes into clubs. Each club has its appointed day to sew. The Red Cross furnishes the material and the girls, under the supervision of Mrs. Pellett and the teachers, do the rest. They enjoy making the layettes for the Belgian babies, and are glad when their sewing day comes. The students are always on the lookout for something they can do to help win the war and are always among the first to do their bit in the different campaigns. CLARA HIGGINS, 718.

Llp tLe On February twenty-second, a large audience, showing their patriotism as well as their loyalty to the school, gathered in the assembly room of the High School to see the patriotic program given by the members of the High School. Due to the untiring efforts of the coach, Miss Smith, and the co-operation of the pupils, the Pageant was a huge success and it was greatly enjoyed by everyone who saw it. The scene took place in the court of the three great powers above the earth—Truth, Liberty and Justice. Before these three the Allied nations, directing their righteous indignation against the enemy, plead their cause. Then for the sake of Belgium, France and England with their colonies seek revenge and after them come Russia, Japan, Armenia, Poland, Italy and all the rest of the Allied powers, offering their all to atone for the great wrong committed against humanity. Suddenly amid the bewilderment and moaning of the nations, a new sound is heard and, pledging her sword to the sacred cause, America joins the Allied Forces. Since the first performance has been so successful, it was de- cided that the Pageant should be repeated and on April the twelfth it was repeated at the Baptist church for the benefit of the local Red Cross. 41 THE LAND OF FRANCE I was torn by the ruthless hand of my foe and purged by the life blood of my strong and sturdy sons. I am born again by the strength and nobleness of my land and children and do still protect the heart of justice. My brow is furrowed by the trackless path of trenches where my sons uphold my honor. The stars look down upon my lands barren of every living and green thing. My hand, the mighty men of war do steady it, and in their rugged trenches love and honor. The wondrous bell of Rheims, that long pealed forth my every joy and sorrow, now is gone; but in its place I hold a noble spirit, aye nobler since the Huns have purged it in a mighty sea of fire. This is my soul. I seek to free my stolen provinces from the oppressor, return to them a furl of freedom’s flag. I seek revenge for my lost villages, my homes, my peaceful fields deprived forever of their happiness. I seek again the trusting faces of my little ones and plan revenge for all my daughters’ woes. My fluer-de-lis shall stand for noble peace and honest hberty. I do refuse to hear this vile usurper’s plans, to weave a history dark with guilty stains. My soul shall mean a passionate love of truth, a life of lasting peace and fear of God. I am the land of Franee. MARGARET MOUNTZ. A TRIBUTE TO THE FIRST AMERICAN BOYS WOUNDED IN FRANCE Far o’er the sea they have sailed away, The boys from America’s shores. They have gone to France and are there today, Killed—or wounded and sore. It is only a few short weeks ago That they were hearty and strong. When they marched away to meet the foe, The foe that must fall ere long. 3ut some of them never came back from the fray; They died while they gallantly fought. trim and bloody and silent they lay, Killed—in a war that another has sought. Others came back but they’re not the same, As they were when they shouldered their guns; For they are crippled or halt or lame, Wounded—by shells of the merciless Huns. But the wounded bear not the marks of scorn, The empty sleeve and the crutch and the cane Signal out that the owner has valiantly borne His part in Democracy’s name. RUSSELL SHERMAN. r Vritten by a prominent Senior boy to a prominent Junior girl. Names withheld by censor.) I would have told you this instead of writing it, but I believe I can write it better than I can tell it—I am ashamed of the way I have acted toward you. I knew all the time that it, was not right that I should force my attentions on you but ft loved you so. I do yet, but in a different way. My love for you now is for your wellfare—to comfort and console you. It is the love I have for all, not to force myself upon them. I may not have time to talk with you before school is out and ‘ather than bother you again | will tell you now. Please do not let me stand in the way of someone else in their relation toward you. You know who I mean. It is he, not I, that you are for. BOW Beso Aes don’t think I am angry for I am not, but I thought it was my duty to tell you how things were. Don’t turn anyone else down, you have no right to. I may ask to walk home with you once in a while but I will ask as a friend and nothing more. occ I have told you my deepest convictions, therefore I ask you not to read this until you are alone. This may ‘‘break your heart’’ for a while but you will soon forget me. I’m not worthy of it. It will come out all right, I know. There is one favor I want to ask of you, perhaps it is asking too much. After you have considered this matter, won’t you tell or write me what you think about it? I have kept nothing from you. You won’t need to be afraid to tell me what you think, and by the way I want to hear from you during the summer, and don’t forget that picture. I know you didn’t promise me one, but I want one anyway. I’m sorry I had to write this but I just had to tell you, and if I have said anything I should not, I hope you will forgive, me. Debating Club Not least in the importance of the literary activities of the High School is ‘‘The Forum Debating Society.’’ The society was organ- ized four years ago, and several of the fellows who are members now were present when the first meeting was called, and helped to form its constitution that now govrns its proceedings. In a research of school records, we find that this is the first time in the history of debating in G.HLS. that a club has been carried on over four successive years, retaining its original name, constitu- tion and many of its original members. Among those who are now completing their fourth year in the society are Victor Deihl (former President), Otto Heinzerling, Paul Cook, Ray Schomp, and Russell Sherman (President). In the meetings that have been held each week questions of current interest and importance have been discussed. These meet- ings are greatly appreciated by all and will be cherished long after the school days have ended. Besides having debates in the club room we have also conducted several debates with other schools. The last was held with Auburn High at Garrett, and our team, Victor Deihl, Earnest Deihl and Russell Sherman, did honor not only to the club but also to the school, for they won over Auburn by a unanimous decision. On March twenty-second Russell Sherman won first place in the county discussion contest held in the High School auditorium, Every member has greatly enjoyed the work, and those of us who are leaving wish to be assured of the privilege that when we return to visit the school in coming years, we shall still find the Forum Debating Society living on, though we have reluctantly departed. R. A. S. 44 Che Crimson Crescent In the reckoning of fairyland the time of my story is as but yesterday. In the time of humans this is the record of eighteen years of the most dire and calamatous event that ever occurred in fairy land. The scene is that of a fairy court. Instead of the usual gorgeous costumes which characterize an assembly of the court, the fairy host is divided into two groups, one arrayed in the most dazzling white, and the other in the most brilliant of crimson. Ranged on one side of the spacious court are the followers of Eric, leader of the white, and on the other the followers of Athelstane the Red. Time and space will not permit me to tell how the sheerest spider web is supported by the stalwart grasses, or how the dewdrops seem pendant diamonds when they reflect the hght of the fire-flies, or how the star beams shining on the shields of the doughty warriors, are reflected with added brilliance. Suffice it to say that never before had the inhabitants seen such an assembly as this. At the head of this hall sit the two leaders and near them, shrouded in a mystic glow, is an object which seems to be the con- tention of the assembly. Listen! A figure clad in the daintiest white, steps forth and addresses the assembly; another one steps to the platform and this one is dressed in the fleeciest crimson of the sunset clouds. Hour after hour the debate lasts. Finally an agreement is reached in which each side resolves to do its utmost to remove the mystery surrounding the veiled figure and that the side sueceeding shall be allowed to crown the new creature with the insignia of its own side. Papers are signed to this effect and placed in the care of warrior ants. Athelstane’s followers show their sincerity by hastening to the nearby mountain top and there, on a narrow ledge of rock no larger than one’s hand, in the light of the rising sun, dedicate themselves to their glorious cause and invoke the aid of the sun to aid them in their undertaking. At night they assemble on the broad top of a mushroom in the glow of a summer’s night and petition the moon and the stars to look with favor on their task. The years pass. Each side employs all the arts of fairy lore to reach the goal. The followers of Eris seek those things that are products of the nght and offer them to the veiled figure as obla- tions. The adherents of Athelstane bring their gifts of the sun- light, the gayest of colored fruits, the golden wheat, the rich tints of the autumn time, and the crimson beauty of the blood-roots, the poppies, and the hollyhoeks. Offerings are made and oblations are lavishly expended But as yet. the veiled mystery remains. But Athelstane has decided to make one supreme effort, calling for volunteers who are willing if need be to sacrifice even life itself. He received a unanimous rsponse from his brave followers. Selecting three that are known for their sagacity, swiftness and skill, he starts on his mission. They spend weary days and sleepless nights in toiling o’er hill and thru dale, seeking a magic power that will remove the mystic veil and bring success to the followers of Athelstane. In the course of their wanderings they come to the home of a hermit-crab. After a wonderful supper they reveal to the hermit-crab the purpose of 46 their wanderings. Searching in his fund of ancient of ancient lore he reveals to them a mixture which will crown their efforts with success. He presents them with a snail shell one-fourth of an inch in length as a symbol of their success and as a receptacle of the potion which will remove the veil. After numerous attempts and countless failures, the fairy sprites succeed in catching the last drop of water that fell from the tail of a leaping dolphin, the last bit of dust from the tail of a sweeping comet, and the last tear which a fairy elf shed for her sweetheart who had given his life in defense of his native land; and now they must stir the mixture in the red glow of the rainbow and the prize is won. The hghtning is blinding. The roar and the crash of the thun- der storm has passed and now the sun, shining on the remaining rain-drops, creates a glow which bathes the followers of the red in a glow of crimson sheen. Athelstane and his warriors have achieved. They have caught the substances and bathed them in the rain-bow, and now they can return singing the victory. The court is again the scene of bustling activity. The followers of Athelstane march in with heads erect and firm and sure tread, having the air of victors. Following them with mingled curiosity and misapprehension, the supporters of Eric arrange themselves on the opposite side of the court. The hour of triumph or failure has arrived. Athelstane carries the new offering to the altar. The frag- rance begins to rise. The veil slowly arises and there stands the being of all this endeavor. As tho to emphasize the success of the victors, not only is the noble hero adorned with a halo of crimson, but also across the upper lip is a band of the most irridescent crimson—and Carlin stands before us in the most gorgeous mustache of the ages.

The class of 1918 has finished its social era in the Garrett High School, but the memory of past good times will be written indelibly upon the minds of every alumnus. Below we give a brief summary of some of our parties. Ye Wienie Roast. The Seniors, deciding to have a final gathering before they froze up for the winter months, betook themselves to the memorable gravel pit for a wienie roast and a marshmallow toast. They assem- bled about dusk. To the musie of the old swing, a few of the un- engaged boys gathered wood for the fire. What the rest were doing no one knows and probably the censor wouldn’t let them tell if they did. After the fire was built the guests, including some of the faculty, assembled around the fire to eat toasted weinies and burnt marshmallows. Although the eats were over, underdone jokes cracked as easily as the fire and everyone had a good time. At this party it seems the Seniors did an unaccountable thing—they left at an early hour; but when the final reports came in it seems as if there was a reason. Ye Reception. The Garrett High School was invited by the boys of the High School who were members of the Y. M. C. A. at Auburn to entertain the Freshmen and the faculty at a reception. Most all of the High School accepted and went over on a special ear. The first event was a program in which there was music and talks by different members of the faculty and by the presidents of the different classes. The later part of the evening was spent play- ing games, among which were the ‘‘lady barbers,’’ who caused considerable blushes among the ‘‘Freshies,’’ but they could hardly keep Carlin and Kast away until they saw the joke. Refreshments were served and they chose their partners by a hit and miss method of grabbing a hand through a curtain. Ye Country Party. On November 16th the Seniors had a party at the home of Ray- mond Ballentine. They arrived as best they could, some walked, some came in ears, and others on the interurban. Here many of the city folks were shown many old-fashioned dances and games that were entirely new to us. After these games we all managed to get stewed on oyster stew, and got home most any old time in the morning. Ye Football Banquet. On the evening of December 18th the football players, and their lady friends, held their post-season banquet in the basement of the Methodist Chureh. The banquet was served in three courses by the Domestie Science girls, after which numerous toasts were called for by Mr. Pellett and delivered by the football men. Before leav- ing, the players elected Pat Moran as captain of th team for the following year. Ye Peace Party. Brotherly love once more reigning between the Junior and Senior classes, they decided to bury the hatchet and hold a party at the parish house. The fire was built with difficulty but disposed of easily. Ask Groscup. A good, lively time was had, and fortunately the building held together. Carlin, however, was too interested sitting in a corner with (name deleted by censor). But he was enjoying himself and so was everybody else. But the chaperones wouldn’t let the lights stay out. Ye School House Party. February cold and snow! Well, I should say so! But just when the Seniors wanted to have a party out in the country the snow had to melt! Get the best of the Seniors? That never happened. They just had a party at home, or rather, at the school house. The program committee made things good and lively, too. The most thrilling thing that happened was the composing of Valentine verses. Schomp was left in the lurch and Carlin was proclaimed Poet- Laureate. For poetic genius the Senior class will be renowned over the face of the earth some day P.S.: Some of the Seniors hated the school so much that they left early—in the morning. Ye Sugar Camp Party. On March 16th the Seniors held a party at Orpha Lawhead’s home. Though they walked two miles and rang the St. John’s school bell to let people know who they were, they refused to be tired on arriving at the sugar camp. Maple sap was boiled to sugar and everybody had a good, sticky time. Although only about half the class were present, it was the most enjoyable social event of the year, and many showed talents for music, taffy, darkness, and things in general that were supposed to be below the dignity of Seniors.

But this year Mr. Wilcox, of Auburn, organized the High School Band, which includes some members of the Junior High School. The band progressed rapidly and in March gave a concert in the High School Building. Without an exception, it is the best organization of its kind ever recruited in Garrett High. They have shown their patriotism by playing at the patriotic meetings in town and at the lecture courses.

A splendid track team was organized two years ago but because of the lack of teams in this part of the state we were forced to give this up. This year tennis has been organized, with Arthur Groseup as captain and Marlow Manion as assistant. Although there are no other High Schools with organized tennis teams, there are plenty of players in Garrett, and many interesting games are anticipated. Last year basketball was organized by both boys and girls. Although no great games were won, the coach built up a strong team and would have made good but because of the failure to get a place to play, the team was broken up. In the fall of 1916 football was started and by the help of a splendid coach we worked ourselves to the top. This year the team was composed of nearly all new men; but by hard and persistent work we managed to make a name for ourselves and although we lost our coach before the end of the season, we coneluded a very successful year. Baseball has been our hobby, a nd in the years gone by we have had some of the best teams in the state. This year we have splendid material for a team but because of the conditions caused by the war we have had a hard time filling out our schedule. 60 Hoot Wall The Game That Wasn't. (Auburn, 0; Garrett, 7.) First Team, 7; Second Team, 0. The first game of the season was scheduled with Auburn, and, as everybody knows, Auburn has a habit of backing out at the last minute, so the first team played the second and beat them—of course. September 29—Defiance, 19; Garrett, 6. Our first game of the season was with Defiance and they came down to play us with bells on. Of course they expected an easy walkaway with us, but they were extremely shocked, in spite of the faet that they won. Our line was hard as well as their’s, and Harvey managed to drive through to a touch-down, much to our opponents’ disgust. However, after a hard fight with practically all new mem- bers we found ourselves defeated. October 6—Sturgis, 0; Garrett, 25. With eager spectators looking on and a team fit to trim, we started at the Sturgis bunch with determination. Everything went well until Harvey broke through for a touch-down and Groseup kicked goal. Then Sturgis could not hold us at all. Gingery went for a touch-down, Harvey followed close with another, and Scisinger intercepted a forward pass and made another. This ended the game and we left the field in high spirits. October 13 (at Sturgis)—Sturgis, 0; Garrett, 19. The return game at Sturgis was played on a gridiron of weeds and dug-outs. This, however, did not interfere with us in the least. The first quarter, Scisinger, intercepted a pass and ran thirty yards to a touch-down. In the next quarter Olinger tried the same stunt and got away with it. Then until the last quarter we lingered near the middle of the field. Finally Carlin intercepted another pass and the well known red streak was seen too late by the Sturgis buneh. October 20—Fort Wayne C. H.S., 0; Garrett, 39. On October 20th we met the Fort Wayne Catholic High on our own grounds and proceeded to walk away with them. In spite of their many plays, Garrett’s goal was never in danger. Feick walked through for two touch-downs, Olinger intercepted a pass for one, and Carlin slipped his way through for three. November 3—Fort Wayne Pyramids, 12; Garrett, 6. We met the Pyramids on a muddy field and put up a stiff fight from start to finish. In the second quarter Moran scored on a fake kick. Then our luck changed and by flukes Fort Wayne managed to cross our goal twice, once in the third quarter and again in the fourth, but we had them too seared to kick their hard-won goals. We out-played our opponents all the way around, even though we were beaten, and the game ended with the ball on their five-yard line. (The Anvil Chorus) At Defiance, November 10—Defiance, 40; Garrett, 7. We went to Defiance confident of victory to wipe out the stain of our first defeat, but we found we had a practically new team to play against. They put up a vicious offense and, out-weighing us, carried us away. We never ceased fighting, however, and in the first of the fourth quarter Carlin intercepted a pass for a touch- down and then kicked goal. From then on Defiance could not hold up against our plunges and we worked our way to their twenty-yard line by the end of the game. Sing to Slow Music. At Hamilton, November 17th—Hamilton, O; Garrett, 21. This may have been a football game but our team was not aware of it. In the first place the gridiron was a hayfield laid on young mountains; secondly, the referee didn’t know what he was doing. The team played by the rules of 1898 and they’d forgot what they knew about them. At no time was our goal in danger, and with light playing we beat them, but did not make the score too large for fear of discouraging them. November 24—Fort Wayne Pyramids, 6; Garrett, 0. This was undoubtedly the best game of the season, and was a fight from start to finish. Both tea ms gave their best strength dur- ing the whole game. Due to a fluke in the third quarter, Fort Wayne managed to get a goal and Garrett with determination started her famous line plunges and was fast headed for the Pyramids’ goal when the whistle blew. November 29th—Alumni, 0; Garrett, 6, The largest crowd of the season greeted us at the Alumni game. We expected a strong fight playing against the former team, and though they put up a fair argument why we shouldn’t beat, it wasn’t what we had been expecting. They, knowing our signals, stopped all our passes and fake plays so Carlin ealled for our line plunges and rapidly we made headway. Due to the referee’s misunderstand- ing of the rules we were obliged to put the ball over the line three times before it satisfied him and he would eall it good. In the fourth quarter we romped toward their goal until the whistle blew, thus closing a successful football season. Totals. Nine games; won five, and lost four. One game forfeited to us. Opponents’ totals, 77 points; Garrett’s totals, 129 points— Garrett’s majority, 52 points. HCY eee eevee End GOs Natl ear, eras sareerac Guard PEC TOSCUD Sen anaes Center Gy Diblgpe cae.

After considerable practice the baseball season opened here with the overwhelming defeat of LaGrange, the final count being 31-1. In the first half of the first inning Evans, Garrett’s new pitcher, retired Garange in ‘‘1, 2, 3’’ order. When Garrett came to bat it looked as though the game would have to be ealled on account of darkness in the first inning. However, after batting around nearly twice, and with a score of 12 to 0, the fellows decided they had enough fora start. From then on it was a walk-away. Al- though the game was not extremely interesting, it gave confidence to the home boys and assured everyone that Garrett High has a team worth backing. April 26—Garrett, 11; (at) Bryan, 3. Although this game ended with a score of 11 to 38, it was by no means as easily secured as the LaGrange affair; in fact, things looked rather dark until the third inning, when with a seore of 2 to 0 in Bryon’s favor, and with three men on bases someone hit the ball out in left field, and when Bryon recovered from the shock, two men had crossed the home plate, and this was soon followed by two more when someone hit a two-bagger ‘‘somewhere in center field.’ The game was nip and tuck from start to finish, Garrett winning by playing a good game of ball, and by getting timely bingles when they were needed. May 3—Garrett, 7; Byran, 2. Great Victory. ' As the Annual goes to press a telegram was received by Asso- ciated Press of another victory for Garrett. Captain Carlin ad- vaneed 7 scores. Bryan managed to advance 2 scores in the seventh, but due to the effective bombardment by Evan and the co-operation of the rest of the team Bryan could not advance farther and sub- mitted to unconditional surrender, thus ending the second war with Bryan. Below we give a list of the schedule so far as it is made out. The team has had a hard time securing games this year and will prob- ably play more games than listed.

Mr. Huffman in Agriculture class: ‘‘The iron is in the blood to prevent oxidation.”’ Russell Adams: ‘‘But why don’t the blood rust?”’ A sentence given by Miss Smith to punctuate: (Byron, Shelly Keats, and Collridge are English poets.) Charles Baker: ‘‘Put one comma between Keats and, and.’’ Miss Smith: ‘‘Why, Charles, why don’t you separate Shelly and Byron?”’ Charles: “‘I thought that was the guy’s name.”’ Heard at party at Hixon’s—Mrs. Hixon (coming into room where Otto and Kathryn Martin are sitting on the sofa together quite snuggly): ‘‘It seems close in here. I believe I’ll turn off the register.’ 84 Ford Grimm: ‘‘When are you going to pay me that dollar you owe me?”’ Joe Ott: ‘‘What do you think Iam? A fortune teller?”’ Miss Dobbrick: ‘‘ What is a substitute for olive oil?’’ Irene Wadd: ‘‘Castor Oil.’’ Louisa Pierce (in history): ‘‘Corwallis was sewed (hemmed )in at Yorktown.’’ Mr. Herron (in chemistry class), telling them what a salt is. ‘“Well, you know what you sprinkle on a potato? Well, that’s salt.’’ Class (with long-drawn sigh): ‘‘Oh.’’ LeRoy to Ruth, on entering the already crowded sugar camp at Lawhead’s: ‘‘Do you think we can squeeze in here?”’ Paul Cook: ‘‘Better wait until I blow out the light.’’ Miss Swanson to class in Caesar: ‘‘I know those papers in your books are book marks but I wish you wouldn’t use them so much.’’ Manion: ‘‘I hear Probst was rejected when he tried to join the army because he had musical feet.’’ Harry Moran: ‘‘What ’cha mean, musical feet?’’ Marlow: ‘‘Two flats.’’ Margaret Mountz (in history): ‘‘In the states where they have women suffrage, do the men vote too?”’ George Carrol, talking to Mr. Pellett when he was visiting the school: ‘‘I miss many of the faces I used to shake hands with.”’ ‘Miss Swanson, to Caesar class: ‘‘Now, bring your gram- mars to class tomorrow and I’ll show you how to make dates.’’ A Good Poem To Use in Case You Have a Fall-Out. Well, Neva, in the end I’ve decided to be your frined. It has been hard for me to decide, But now with that decision I’ll abide. You said you had nothing to say, You wouldn’t influence me either way.

Only memories of the past will linger with you and it is surprising what comes out of school day association. Some of you will go on fitting yourselves for professions of different kinds, some of you may go to war, while others of you may join hearts and hands and settle down to the establishment of a home.

I think of you in the evening, When my studies are laid aside; I see you in my dreaming, And ’til morn the thoughts abide. When I waken in the morning, The first that I recall Is, what is Belva doing; Does she think of me at all? I know I should to study now, But how can I with that thought? That we’re good friends, for well I know, | But to love thee, I dare not. Oh, then what can I do to forget thee? : Or shall I be haunted forever The thoughts that still linger with me, Thoughts of you that I cannot sever.

Stephenson DENTIST Office Phone, 358 Residence Phone, 44W 114 West King Street GARRETT INDIANA Che Seniors Farewell There are poems and songs and stories, But none of them seem to express The feeling of love that has grown In my heart, For the dear old ‘‘G. H. 8.”’ Oh, dear old G. H. S., our home, Could we tell you how we love you, The walls would re-echo with sounds Of our praise, As forever to you we are true. There are Freshmen and Sophomores and Juniors, And each claim to love thee best, But, of course, they soon find that their words Are in vain, When the Seniors are put to the test. They may say that their grades are better, Their conducts beyond debate; But whenever it comes to true love For our school, The Seniors are ‘‘right up to date.’’ You will find in the ranks of the Seniors, That everyone is true blue. Then if in life’s journey a success They can make, They'll give the honor to you. Tis a fond yet sad last farewell, That to you in this poem we give, And e’en tho’ by you we may soon Be forgot, In our hearts you continue to live. —R. A.
