To thee we dedicate our last gift, Aeolian. ■A ' ( ' io X THE year nineteen hundred and nineteen marks the adoption of the fascinating name, AeoHan, for Garrett High School ' s Year Book. Annuals have appeared at each graduation for many years, but each class christened its book according to its own taste or theme until 1919. Aeolian, a harp of early Greek mythological origin, is an appropriate name for our book as it symbolizes the spirit of harmony and co- operation which prevails throughout our school. Demosthenes, a very able Grecian orator, must have been very like our faculty. The Wrestler infers that it will not be long until each member of our class will be wrestling with the problems of the world in one way or another. The Juniors — that ' s the year during which all of us are love-sick, bless our hearts — with covered eyes shoot the darts of desire as did Cupid. But alas! Poor Narcissus, the un- fortunate youth who so loved himself that he drowned as he tried to embrace his own image. The vain Sophomores need warning. The Praying I Boy needs no explanation. If you have sufficient faith, Freshies, you ' ll be big, grown-up. Seniors some day. The discus thrower was the athletic hero of Grecian myths and is symboHc of our activities. As we revert to this period of constructive history, we find that clocks hadn ' t found their consciences yet and a sun dial was used in their stead. We read our calendar well, like watching the sun dial, the passing of each day into another. The Muse of Comedy and Burlesque illustrates the joke section. That person was just another God — he must have been funny! Ancient Greece was a land of culture and refinement. The theme of our an- nual would not be complete without paying tribute to the Thinker, the well known figure who symbolizes these characteristics. The efforts of our most thoughtful moments cannot be compared to the cultural attainments of Ancient Greece, but we have done our best and we still have time to grow by thinking. ■-A c x ( ' Table of Contents Administration Classes Activities Literary Jokes Advertising ■ l C(P A i l ' 3n m mnriam ROBERT BRINKERHOFF ADMINISTRATION ' A tox ( f i CO X i c ' C.

We ' ll tell the whole world of the fun we have had In good G. H. S., the best in the land. Some will travel, I suppose, after school days are o ' er. Some will study and work and continue to err. But we know no class in all the years, That can compare with the Seniors — yes. Seniors this year. There ' s Barney, our president, our leader of course. And Sterling, a good scout, who never is cross. And Oct - — Oh, yes, we call him the Duke, He ' s tall and he ' s slender, we all think he ' s cute. Then there ' s Jess — she ' s the fun of our cla:s. She ' s going to be a coach, you can imagine her, I guess. She laughs and she jollies most of the time. Miss Thrush thinks she will have to scold her sometime. And Mary Edythe, she ' s the smart one here. She studies and works, but she ' s always right there With her typing and chemistry — she ' s handy at that. Bat she ' s sweet and adorable, we ' ll have to admit. Then Marguerite — well she takes the cake I don ' t think there ' s a medal that girl doesn ' t take. She doesn ' t need to study — she has it right there. You ' ll find her a good sport — a good one to have here. O yes, that reminds me — there ' s Sport, I mustn ' t forget There isn ' t a one, that doesn ' t like him, I ' ll bet. He teases and abuses all the girls in the class. But we laugh and just take it — because he is nice. Then the one that jumps and gets about lots That ' s Alverta — she ' s the president of G. R. C.— she ' s so smart. She laughs and she jokes — never worries a bit. Though you ' d think she would — in everything, she ' s just it. O my goodness, there ' s Evelyne — she ' s Editor-in-chief Of the Aeolian — she always plays some kind of make-believe. She likes to dance and have a good time But when she works — she ' s there in good rhyme. Of co-jrse this is not all of this glorious class. But to make this much longer would be tiresome, 1 guess. So you ' ll just have to see us — that ' s all I can say To determine whether or not, we ' re all that I say. — Georgia Coburn ' 27 : to X ( d k LA MAR CREEGER Where am I to go and find her? — (Euripides) Orchestra 1-2-3; Hi-Y 2-3-4; Radio 2-3.

And seventy-seven Freshmen began to sing forth their songs on the great harp of Time — the AeoHan. As we placed our first string upon this instrument, the tones forth coming were rather resonant and squeaky. But not long, for just one year leater, our first class officers were elected and we were represented in all activities, now, we had a real song to play upon this harp. By our Junior year we covild be heard every where. We were really quite important, with a fine staff of officers and helpful co ' operation. One might think our song would have been weaker, having lost some of our members, but not so, for the ones we had were stronger. Then, too, our troubadours were planning, planning for the great feast — our banquet. Time passed quickly and each day a new note was added, fuller and sweeter. Now — 1927! Proud Seniors — yes, proud of our officers and proud of all our class — fifty-five in number. And the strains we are playing on our Aeolian are to us the sweetest, almost the saddest ever heard. We are in our glory, teUing the stroies of our yester- days as did the minstrels of old. Again we are aware that time is fleeting. Today is today, yes, — but tomorrow, we the Seniors of ' 27 will be playing on the Aeolian our Swan Song , of Garrett High School. — Mary Edythe Johns ' 27 jenior ss While I was sleeping in the woods one day There came a faiiy bright and gay; Seems as though she came from heaven, To tell me of the class of ' 27 This is what to me she said As she danced around my head. Mary Edythe Johns is a college lass Who always stands at the head of her class. Marcia, Maxine and Marguerite are Latin teachers While Chester with Wilma as wife, ex- cells as a preacher. Murray and Jessie have recently ap- peared on the stage And are considered the best dancers of the age. I know that you ' ll receive much joy To learn of the elopement of Madeline and Roy. Vaughn as a farmer, is known miles about. But friends are all saddened to learn of his gout. Madoyln S. and Gustabelle are succeed- ing as nurses And by their reports, money flows in their purses.

Wayne Shernck is destined a farmer to be, While Sterling and Freddie have put out to sea. Sappie and Cartwright are attracting fame on the floors And win by their baskets many rounds of encores. An efficient barber is Arthur Steinmetz And for bobbing hair fifty cents he gets. The Helens have each won a typing contest But really I couldn ' t say which is the best. Bob Thompson is a pugilist, La Mar is a jeweler, Kenneth is engaged in making electric coolers. Over in Manila working hard with hemp Is a young gentleman by the name of Kemp. Fairy Atkins has long since been a cook And people are enlightened by means of her book. A remarkable salesman is Harold Clady Who deals in articles for ' Milady . Sally M. and Madolyn C. two Garrett vamps Have gone to the mountains to live in their camps. Roscoe and Wilford have started a shop While Russel Nicholson is a noted bell hop.

Georgia and Juanita have started a tea- room. Which William sweeps daily with a new broom. Gerald and Ward have started a shoe shine And for each pair of shoes they pull in a dime. Edith Houser is a capable dressmaker While Roger finds joy as an under- taker! A landscape gardener is Donald Smeed Who daily wages war on the hosts of weeds. A wonderful actress is Mable Hyde, Because of her performances, the audi ence cried. Myrtle ' s sure to win applause By daily talking for her cause. Pauline is a coach at Garrett High And sternly refuses the girls to eat pie. Irene and Edith W. to Europe have started And from many friends they now are parted. Bernard Wiler is a clever clown He travels with a circus from town to town. As an artist Arthur Lewellyn is noted On whose pictures large prices are quoted. Now the fairy said adieu.

For I sec the beginning of our career At the old G. H. S. we love so dear. We started as Freshies, one thought ni mind — That we would never get behind. That we would strive for success, Thereby brighten the fame of G. H. S. To school the second year we came Willing and ready to fight the game, Willing and ready to make a cause, That old G. H. S. might win applause. Last fall as Juniors we entered school With determination not unlike a mule. To climb the ladder of success And prove ourselves to be of the best. On the ladder of our High School career The very best round will soon appear, Too soon our happiest days will be o ' er But none can keep the memories from our door. — Mary Wagner ' 28 Junior Class History The class of ' 28 has two very important factors of which to boast: first, of its quantity, and second, which is much more important, of its quality. As Freshmen, even though we were typical of that classification in every re spect, without us the G. H. S. could not possibly have progressed as she has. Some things which we accomplished during that never-to-be-forgotten year are worthy of mention — in general we waded whole heartedl ' into all activities and our effort. ' proved successful. The following year brought the same group of enthusiastic scholars, now Sophies. The Sophomore is usually the most insignificant of the four years, but we made our presence felt by our loyal response to all activities. Last fall we fully realized our responsibilities as Juniors and where there ' s . ' will, there ' s a way. There was a will, so we knew there would be a way. Early in the school year wc elected Roger Carper, president; Hazel Harvey, vice-president: Eleanor Brown, treasurer, and Finley Nash, secretary Miklred Alley, chairman of the social committee, has also done much for solving the problems of the class, and we appreciate her efforts. The class has worked in co-operation with every organisation for the support and betterment of the school. The members have taken an interest in physical and social affairs. The achievements we have reached are due to our contributions to the literary and glee clubs, athletics, and to the various activities of the I ' ccitation rooms. This shows that we are preparing for greater lives and services for the future. — Lucile Brechbill ' 28 ■ c oX ( v ' Junior Class of Garrett High School Faith Conn, Mildred Alley, Charles Istrate, Mary Dauber, Rcsella Mowi-y.

Freshman life is filled with wonder, Wonder where I parked my gum? Wonder if my teacher likes me ' Wonder if my class belFs rung? Sophomore life of course is hardest, Caesar, EngUsh, and the rest Help to pull our grades to failure Keep us worrying at their best. Junior life is filled with envy For a Senior soon to be.

The steamer set sail on September the 8th — 1925. The first week of the voyage was spent ni makuig new friends, but after that everyone settled down to work for all had something definite to do. A long time passed and finally the steamer stopped at Turkey Island to get a supply of fresh fuel. Soon it started again and all the passengers were ready to continue the trip. In a short time the great steamer stopped at the island of Holly and Mistletoe. Here they transferred their baggage to a larger and more convenient steamer No. 1926. The first great event on this steamer was the Freshman- Sophomore party which was enjoyed by all. After a time the passengers became weary of their journey and were glad when on May 28, the 1926 stopped at a beautiful island called vacation. The passengers remained here three months during which time they saw many interesting things and did some e.xplonng. On September the 7th, 1926 they again started on their journey. From then on there were parties and merry times. We were forced to board a brand new steamer on the 1st of January, No. 1927 — old 1926 being declared unseaworthy. On February 22, the Sophomores had a big party. Everyone had a merry time especial- ly those who saw Mr. Sidebottom dance and cut the cake. So far the voyage has been successful and we hope to land at Fame in 1929. — Esther Kennedy 29 ■-A c x ( d K ' Tl !LR OLE.

Once we stopped at a small hamlet called PartyviUe. The Freshman-Sophomore Hallowe ' en Party was a big event and enjoyed by all. The next day we started out again and a few weeks later camped at a delightful place called Thanksgiving Vacation. After that no stops were made for quite a while, but we tirelessly paced on. And then a general shout went up for around the bend we beheld Christmas Vacation in blazoned letters. A week later 1927 noises greeted us as the New Year was ushered in. We feel that our class has made a splendid record. We have worked together m harmony and now as we stand on the brink of a hill, we all see the majestic sun setting far, far down the road.

The one thing he will be able to judge his success by, is whether he has acquired those fundamental fac- tors so necessary for success in life — such as self-control, honesty, fair- play, determination, courage and that ability to get along in the world rubbing shoulders with men. The athlete who comes to the field with mediocre abilit) ' and builds physique and mental attitude that carries him to victory is the one who, after all, has met with real attainment. — Coach Stanley In marking the success of a bas- ketball season more than victories must be considered. For before any victory can be won certain necessary requirements must be fulfilled. These include loyalty to our school and com iiunity, fair play, high mor- al and scholastic standing, unselfish- ness, and belief in one another. Only by these can athletics be bene- ficial to our school. The girl ' s team has willingly and conscientiously upheld these stand- ards and consequently have ended this season undefeated. It is the support and encouragement which are given a team, that makes it fight to win, so It is necessary for our school and community to hold high these standards by which our ath- letics are governed in order to have a winning team. — Kate Patterson ' l CO X [ ' II ' HE 1926 football season was a successful one, although the boys had hard teams with which to compete, they fought till the crack of the gun. The Maroon and Blue loses eight regulars by graduation, but these positions will quickly be replaced by fresh recruits. The succeeding football team has a hard schedule already contracted, and I am sure the boys will do their best for the glory of the Maroon and Blue. I, as football manager of 1926, wish the team of 1927 all the possible success which they may attain. — Wayne Kemp ' 27 (T ARRETT net ' men went on the floor this season with the determina ' tion to play the game bravely and squarely. We were confronted with various problems, some of which were discouraging, of course, but with the constant encouragement of our coach and principal and the ready ccoperation of our team-mates and friends we feel that we were victors. The total of our seasons score was rather unsatisfactory, but we went into the County and District Tourneys with the spirit to win. We succeeded in going to the finals where we battled with our old rivals. Auburn. Luck seemed to be against us, however, as the laurels went to Auburn. We will lose Captain Cartwright, Roy Burtch, and Harold Clady by graduation. These men deserve much credit for the spirit they have carried during this season. Coach Stanley stood the acid test, never fail- ing the men and team, although many discouraging things happened. Nine Rahs for our team and for our coach. — Roger Hoyles, manager 27 ■.A c A i 1 - A R t V ■-A c A i 6 V B A -( N AVooDlt. ■J CO X ( 6 l - GARRETT football enthusiasts were delighted with the 1926 season on the grid-iron. Coach Stanley was confronted with the problem of finding capable linemen but the men who came out had the fighting spirit, and hard workouts brought to light some real stars. Garrett was defeated by South Bend in the opening game of the season. In a sea of mud and water the locals with a sturdy defense and a speedy attack easily trounced Edon. The Stanleymen downed Bluffton to the tune of 26-14. Starting with a clash that seemed impossible to stop they scored in the early part of the game. Our next territory was at Sturgis where the victory was their ' s. The Willard game was no doubt the thriller of the season. In the first quarter Garrett kicked off to Willard who received but did not get very far with the ball. Both tried passes and runs but they were always broken. In the second quarter, with both sides getting warm, Willard again tried to break through the Maroon and Blue line hut found it solid. The visitors lost the ball on downs and G. H. S. using a forward pass to Sapp made a touchdown. The point was made and the score stood 7-0. After this Willard, a little anxious, nearly got through the line with a criss-cross play but Fuller was awake and threw her for a loss. Then our opponent made a touchdown, but suffered a penalty of 1 5 yards, when they tried to make another. Near Willard ' s goal Garrett was forced to punt. The punt had no distance, Willard carried the ball 20 yards from its goal. With one minute to play they decided to place kick. When the ball was snapped both sides hit the line and Thompson blocked the kick which would have won. Amid wild cheering the victory was OUR ' S. The Decatur game began with fumbling and penalizing. In the second quarter Karr scooped up the ball and ran for a touchdown, with the try for point successful. At the end of four downs Decatur was forced to punt and Sapp ran 70 yards for another touchdown. In the last quarter Decatur stead- ily gained until they made a touchdown. In the last quarter with the ball 13 yards from the goal they made gains by passes and again scored. The game end- ed with a 16-15 victor) ' for G. H. S. With the teams well matched Warsaw got the long end, Metcalf secured the first touchdown in the third quarter. The try for point failed. Warsav ushered its touchdown in the same quarter and suc- ceeded in the try for point. Garrett played their last game against Montpelier. The memory of this battle will undoubtedly remain in the minds of the boys who played their last for the old Maroon and Blue. Garrett will lose many valuable men by graduation: Capt. Sapp, Smeed, Lewellyn, Burtch, Thompson, Groscup, Fuller, Clady, Sithen, Richmond and Manager Kemp. — Gustabell Wagner ' 27 ■-A CO X ( V Roger Hoyles, Mgr.. George Metcalf, Frank Yarde, Carl Kennedy.

When the call for candidates was issued by Coach Stanley an unusually large squad of veterans and new men reported to him. This condition made it necessary to build up a team, a task which is not accomplished overnight. As the season wore on, many difficulties were encountered, and ye old school spirit proved indispensible. The season opened with Waterloo and the locals romped away with an easy victory. The rest of the year was filled with many victories and some discouraging defeats. When the county tournament was played, the locals reached the finals only to be defeated, fifteen to si.xteen, by our most formidable rival, Auburn. Then came the district tournament and again Garrett suffered the humiliation of being de- feated in the final game of the tourney and again it was Auburn who administered this defeat. The following men have played their last games for the local school: Cart- wright, Clady, and Burtch. The outlook for a more successful season for next year is very bright. The most likely candidates are: Gordon, Hotferman, Hughes, Karr, Metcalf, Houser, Yarde, and Stcinmet:;. The Captain for ne.xt year is Manford Karr, who is entirely capable of handling the tasks which he will have to face during the season. —Harold Clady ' 27 A CO X (.

REVIEW OF THE GIRLS ' BASKETBALL SEASON The basketball girls should be given much credit this year for the kind of work which they displayed. Of the forty girls who lirst reported for practice, iifteen by their undaunted stick-to-itiveness stood the test of time. They sacrificed much and fought hard for their Colors, and their reward was VICTORY, winning 1 3 games and tying 1, out of 14 scheduled. The practices, trips, and parties of the team meant a great deal and brought about closer ties of friendship between each and every girl. The team will be greatly handicapped next year by the loss of our four Seniors; Pauline Dirr, Jessie Dull, Marguerite Vogeding, and Irene Starner; but with our new gymnasium and the fine new material coming on — we prophesy as successful a season next year as the one just passed. — Pauline Dirr 27 The schedule for the year was as follows: Waterloo 5 Garrett 4 ' i Berne 6 Garrett 61 Decatur 18 Garrett 26 Peru 17 Garrett 17 New Haven 10 Garrett 4?

Frountelter 1926-1927 JUNIOR HI BASKETBALL THE Junioi ' High boys enjoyed a very successful ba,ske ' ;ball season during 1926- 1927, winning 26 out of 27 games. The one defeat was suffered at the hands of Butler Junior High on the local floor by one point in an over-time battle. Gairett scored 9 3 4 points to their opponents 40 6 during the- entire season, averaging nearly 3 5 points per game to their opponents average of 15 pointi per game. Orville Cartwright was the high scorer of the team, makin.g 439 points. Cart- wright has an uncanny eye for the basket that netted him as high as 3 5 points in a single game. Of course his remarkable scoring was only made possible by the excellent team-work of the other members of the team. Carter wa a bi,g factor in the victorie ;. playing the pivot position in great style, securing the tip off from practically every opponent, and keeping the ball moving towards the Garrett basket whenever he got possession of it. Dreibelbis at running guard assisted materially in making a winning team. He was a fast floor worker, and repeatedly broke up the opposing team ' s plays to start the ball toward the Garrett basket. Nicholson played the floor consistently and, although a forward, took few shots at the basket, was content with feeding the ball to more accurate shooters. His work kept the ball in Garrett ' s possession much of the time. Our trio of back guards, P. Smith. H. Markins, and H. Rowe was always dependable. The low score of our opponents proves the good work accomplished by these men. To Rowe goes the credit of making the winning basket in two of our games when defeat would have been our potion. The other members of the squad, Doster, Schlotterhack, Claxton, Nixon, FrjwnfeltEr, McDanel, Childers, and Jenkins proved equal to the occasion whenever they got into the line-up. They played 10 games as our second team, decisively de- feating Butler ' s seconds twi;e, and Auburn ' s seconds twice, losing only to Hamilton ' s firsts by one point, and five games to the strong Altona team. The Garrett boys won the DeKalb County Junior High tournament held at Butler February 24-25-26. We played Spencerville first, defeating them IS to 17 after a gruelling battle. In the semi-finals, we defeated Altona 26 to 12, and in the finals, defeated Butler 16 to 20. - — Gray Woodcox ■ Co X ( K-- Robei-t Hinklin, Emory McDanel, John Gordon, Harold Hurd.

TRACK HEN Coach Stanley issued the call for track material a large number of candi- dates reported. After a fev. ' workouts with his squad Stanley realized that he had a speedy crew to represent the local school during the coming season. Many veterans from last year ' s team are back in uniform and are making better records than ever. Among the men who ' show up best are Karr, Clady, both of last year ' s relay team, who represented Garrett High at the state meet last year. Others are Metcalf, Burtch, Brown, and McCullough, in the hurdles; Lewellyn, in the shot put; and Sherrick, in the broad jump. The relay team is composed of the following men: Karr, Clady, Metcalf, Burtch, Brown and Gordon. Much is expect- ed from these men and they should win many laurels for Garrett High School before the season ends. The schedule for the season is as follows: April 16 April 2? April 30 May 7: May 14: May 21: Kendallville Relays. Tri-Angular Meet: Auburn, Kendallville, and Garrett. Goshen Relays. County Meet at Auburn. District Meet at Fort Wayne.

BASEBALL good number of men reported for baseball this spring, assuring Coach Stanley of a prosperous team. Poor weather conditions kept the fellows from practic- ing on many days but, nevertheless, the team progressed and their schedule shows more victories than defeats. There is much action due to the strong card that Coach Stanley has laid down before the team which consists of Thompson and Sapp as the batteries, with Lewellyn on first base, Cartwright on second, Hofferman as short stop, and Nash on third, while Traster, Steinmetz, and Cogley are in the gardens. This crew is rated high in Northern Indiana Base Ball and are out to defeat Central of Fort Wayne and other teams of high standing.

Under the eapable supervision of Miss Ziegler many wonders have been aecomplishcd, and if the girls keep up their interest and good work the)- are sure to merit the notoriety and rewards they are bound to re- ceive in the future years. Twenty girls for the chorus and four for the quartette were chosen from this group to represent us in the county contest. For three years there has been no Garrett soloist, but this year Myrtle Mitchell entered. The chorus won the county contest and received the silver loving cup. A novel feature of the year for the club, High School, and Garrett itself, was The Feast of the Little Lanterns, the Operetta, which was given on the seventh of April.

GIRL RESERVE CLUB fOTHING excelled the Garrett Girl Reserve Club of ' 26- ' 27 in pep and go- getting ability. With the back ground of previous years, the untiring efforts of the cabinet and the splendid loyality of the girls, the club grew, expanded, and made itself known throughout the community. The success was largely due to the tact that two girls were sent to summer conference at Camp Gray, Saugautuck. Michigan. Soon after their return, the theme. On the King ' s Highway, was chosen for the year ' s program. Many of the bi-monthly programs were prepared by one of the three individual interest groups — music, dramatics, health. Several memorable stop overs were made on this High Way. The first was a social event at which all of the high school girls were given a reception in the gymnasium. On November sixteenth our budget was made secure by the presenta- tion of the Four Day Chautauqua. This program which was planned and pre- pared by the girls was a decided financial success. Another important occasion was the Garrett-Kendallville Conference, which was held in the Presbyterian Church in Garrett. Without doubt the most outstanding event of the year was the Mother- Daughter Banquet. Last but not least, the Senior Breakfast which is given annual- ly as a farewell to the Senior girls proved to be the climax of the year.

Garrett is expecting to send a larger delegation next year. The hoys presented the Hi-Y Follies on February the eleventh in the High School auditorium to finance club activities. This was, perhaps, the biggest event of the year for the Hi-Y. A large number of the Garrett Hi-Y boys attended the Eighth Annual Older Boy ' s Conference at Kendallville, on March twenty-seventh. The purpose of such conferences is to bring together the high school boys of Northeastern Indiana for wholesome fellowship and religious education. Statistics show that seventy-five out of every hundred men are misfits or have not found the vocation for which they are best fitted. If this situation were just re- versed the world ' s work would be done by men working five days a week and five hours a day instead of six day ' s a week and an eight hour day. This shows the need of a Vocational Guidance program for high school boys, and the Hi-Y is work- ing toward it.

Under the very excellent leadership of Miss Davis the club has enjoyed a successful and interesting year. Although the club membership has been limited to Juniors and Seniors many talented people were discovered when the Black Face Comedy, the novel feature of the year, was presented in the Garrett High School Auditorium. The big party at the Country Club in May was an altogether fitting and proper farewell to the Senior members of the Club!

COMMERCIAL CLUB The Trailer of Errors, an appropriate one-act play put on by the members of our High School Commercial Club, brought before the student body some of the ideals and standards of the commercial group. Regular meetings, which are held every other Monday, call the attention of the club to business problems. The parties and social meetings have kept the commercialties from growing old before their years, as too stnct attention to business is sometimes apt to be destructive.

HOME ECONOMICS CLUB The Home Economics Club was organized tor the Freshmen girls, under the leadership of Miss McKinley. The cluh meets every Monday after school and the attendance has been very good. Many practical phases of etiquette have been studied and demonstrated. The girls try to put these teachings into use and are finding them very helpful.

We can recount our daily deeds, and backwards we can look On the merits we have won and the first steps we took. We must quit our little circles, where we ' ve moved in little ways. And work, as men and women, tor bigger, better days. And though we dread the parting hour from our dear old Garrett High, We can proudly say — We ' ve purpose true and ideals high. — Mary Edythe Johns ' 27 e NOW One looks behind to some vanished time And says. Ah I was happy then, I did not know it was life ' s best prime But, Oh, if I could just go back! Another looks, with eager eyes aglow. To some glad day of joy that yet will dawn. And sighs, I shall be happy then, I know. Oh, let me hurry on. But I look out on my fair today; I clasp it close and kill its radiant brow. Here with the perfect present let me stay. For I am happy now! --Janet Martin ' 30 ■-A CO X ( y JACK FROST Jack Frost has never a penny to spend. He hasn ' t a thing laid by, But his is a house of frost and snow And his IS the earth and sky. And though you may live in a house of riches Or sleep in a little log hut. You could never be poor as Jack Frost is. Since ever and ever the world began. He has painted many pictures of fame. He has frosted the earth through the ages past And yet it is never the same. And though you be old or though you be young. With a friendly face or cold. You could never be young as Jack Frost is, And never be as old. -Myrtle Friend ' 27 e syS) THE FOG The fog crept down on the slumbering town, A soft, gray blanket of woolly down; It covered all, and gave disguise. Forming elves and witches before our eyes. Damp, wisyp lingers of vapor trailed o ' er. And made a seal on every door. Constructing a barrier effective and strong To keep the inmates from worry and wrong. -Dora Alice Dean ' 29 • io i ' - HAMLET ' S MOTHER ' 11 ■ ' RUE motherhood is the highest office, from an influential standpoint, that a - - woman can hold. A mother has the privilege to shape lives, to lead them which way she will. In the early life of her child she is his teacher, judge, court nurse, and minister. She is ever a sympathizing friend. From the time the boy comes to her with a humped head or a bleeding finger to the time when he confides in her about the great crisis of his life she always contorts him in her own way. She rejoices in his successes and consoles him in his failures. No matter how far he has gone in the depths of sin his mother, if she is a true mother, can bring him back. Hamlet ' s mother was not vastly different from others. She was a loving wife and mother until the serpent came to change her life. Like Eve in the Garden of Eden she could not resist the tempter and thus sacrificed the love and respect of her only son. And yet, she was his mother; she had a mother ' s devotion for him; she admired his splendid manhood; she was deeply concerned for his well-being; when he was sorrowful she tried every way possible to make him happy. She did not see the king ' s motive in sending for Rosencrant; and Guildenstern because she was ac- quiescent to anything which helped to comfort her son. As we see her, looking from a modern viewpoint, we cannot admire many of her traits, but in those days women were not expected to think for themselves. Since she was weak we can expect such a crafty, treacherous person as the king to use her as a toy. As a woman, the queen was of a very low type, but as a mother she ranks high. Her motherhood was real, her womanhood was false, like a reed blown about by the wind. As Eve was punished for her sin likewise Hamlet ' s mother was punished We condemn her for her weakness just as we condemn Lady Macbeth, but we havt to admire the depth of mother love which she possessed. — Fairy Atkins ' 27 ■■A io MY FORD My Ford! Tht)u shoulds ' t he running at this hour; I have great need of thee. I have hhsters on my heels and holes In my soles, fires, oil, and gas Have all played out on me. Thou should not play a trick on me like this. My Ford, what can he the matter with thee? Please, it is only three more miles home. Of all the fools you see You play this dirty deal on me. Hold on! What do I see upon the dashboard? Of course, I should have thought of that before. Turn on the key and it ' ll run for ever more. My Ford! — Kenneth Sheets (a«s FORTY YEARS AGO I wandered to the G. H. S. and searched every classroom from front to rear, I strolled as I used to do, in that good old hall so dear; But none were left to greet me and few were left to know. Who recited with me in those classrooms, some forty years ago. I visited the old assembly, it hasn ' t changed a hit. Some other boy was sitting in that seat where I used to sit, His eyes watching the teacher cause he had a note to throw. Just as I used to do, some forty years ago. But where are those classmates, they numbered forty-nine, Those boys I used to chum with, those ole pals o mine. And the girls I used to take to the ten-cent show And all those class parties, some forty years ago? Many were very successful, their names I often hear; And some, I ' ve been told, have been dead for many a year; Many I ' ve forgotten, hut a few I still know Of those old classmates, some forty years ago. — Wilford Richmond ' 27 • io ( v-- SPIRITS Spirits: That ' s what Lanier makes one think of; golden spirits on an olden path; dewy spirits with roses golden in their hair and flowing garbs of lune green; marshy spirits with the soft pugnant odors of the earth as they invade your fancy. Spirits and spirits and spirits; some are so swift and formless that you are hardly aware that they have passed; others are so vivid that they remain for years to haunt your better moments of reflection; while yet others are of such gossamer texture and such delicacy that one cannot detain them long ere they slip away in the rosy mist leaving only a faint perfume as of the passing of a lovely lady on the wings of a Bird of Paradise. Lanier himself was the spint of the good Samaratin of the proverbial times. — Alverta Steward ' 27 (a«s SENIORS Under the roof of 3. H. S. The mighty Seniors stand; The stronger take the weaker And lead them by the hand. Pretty little blossoms Viol ets so sweet and fair We chose for our class flower. Are others half so rare? True to their High School colors The Seniors take the lead. Life in the school without them Would be life much in need. Living up to our motto Truth conquers all things Facing each day squarely No matter what it brings. Students may forget us In the days to come But we ' ll remember G. H. S. Till the race is won. —Pearl Miller ' 27 • io X l_ 6 K-- DRAMA Characters — Noah, Mrs. Noah, a presistent reporter. Place — Somewhere about the Caucausian Mountains.

Noah: I said I didn ' t have time to say another word. Just look at the sky and those clouds. Reporter: I ' ll only be here just a few more minutes. My boat ' s waiting for me just over that little mound. Noah: It ' s just like this — Mrs. Noah: Noah, you come in here right this minute and feed the lions. They ' re raising an awful racket. Hurry up! Noah: All right, all right, I ' ll be there in just a minute. Now, Mr. Reporter, may- be you ' ll go? Reporter: Just a minute couldn ' t you tell me whether you have wireless or radio aboard or whether you have any airplanes or lifeboats w ith you? Noah: Say, who do you think you ' re talking to? My name ' s Noah, not Edison or Ford. Reporter: Yes, yes, oh yes, I understand. Now I wonder if you are adequately equipped and fully prepared and whether you know where you a re going to land. Noah: Say, listen, I ' ve stood here just about long enough and even now it ' s be- ginning to sprinkle. Mrs. Noah: Noah, Noah, I wish you ' d send that funny looking man right away and come in here and quiet these animals. Do you hear me? Noah: Yes, yes, my dear. I ' ll try and do that. Reporter: It will only take a minute now, just a few more questions: — Now how many animals are on board? How many people have you with you? Just about how large is the Ark? Noah: (Silent for a minute)— Ha! Haj Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! What did I tell you. Oh Boy! you ' re just soaked. You ' d better get back to that boat. Reporter: (To himself) I wondered what the old fellow was stalling me off for. I see now. (He looks at his drenched person and rushes into the Ark just as it floats off its moorings) (He now turns to Noah) Well, old boy, you put it over on me. I ' ll make a big story out of this anyhow.

The soft winds and sunshine And many sprighty hours Are coming, coming, coming With the songsters and the flowers; And the merry, happy, children Dance in the warmth and bree;e. Once again we hear the frogs In a celestial light; And the little sprouts of green grass Coming, peeping through the ground. -Kate Owens ' 28 SPRING The other night the frogs began to sing To tell the world the coming of the spring. They sang as loud as loud could be To tell the news from sea to sea; They also hope to wake the flowers Still sleeping in the mossy bowers; And cheer the birds up in the trees Where rustles gently the cool breeze. The spring tide is a joyous time When everything is feeling fine. When creeks and streams begin to flow, And children thither woodward go. The very nicest part of all It is a long time until Fall. — Mary Wagner ' 28 APPLE BLOSSOMS When the apple trees are all in blossom Every one so pink and white. All the air around is fragrant, While birds sing from morn till night. When the sky is blue as the ocean. And the sun is shining bright.

The husband did his best, but got two stations at once. One was broadcasting the morning daily dozen, the other the recipes. This is what he got. Hands on hips. Place one cup of flour on shoulders, raise knees, depress toes, and wash roughly in one-half cup of milk. In four counts raise and lower legs and wash two hard boiled eggs in sieve. Repeat six times. Inhale one-half teaspoon of baking powder, one cup of flour, then breathe na- turally. Exhale and sift. Attention. Jump to a position and bend whites of two eggs back- wards and forwards. Arms for- ward, over head, raise the cooked eggs in flour and in four counts make stiff dough, wliich is stretched at the waist. Lie flat in flour and roll into marbles the size of a wal- nut. Hop to straddle in boiling water, but do not boil at a gallop. After ten minutes, remove and wipe with a dry towel. Breathe deeply; dress in warm flannels, and serve with fish soup.

Just before we shed our tears we prepare to bequeath individual possessions to deserving and appreciative people, still to be found in Garrett High School long after we have dispersed with the aforesaid tears. To the Faculty, we bequeath those cherished records of so many A ' s received by the class; these are to be passed on for future reference. To our successors, the Juniors, we will our seats in the Assembly room, exten- sions anticipated and allowed; also, our remarkable record for making pretty Sipeeches in all lines. To the little Freshies, we pass on the rhymes and jingles of our childhood days. The private possessions of this most famous class go thus: To Thelma Pence, the Victrola records of Myrtle Friend ' s Daily Dozen. We sincerely hope results are obtained. To Roger Carper, the chewing gum parked in the corner of Miss Thrush ' s room by Mike Sapip. To Marian Elson the ability to giggle just like Sally Mitchell, for we are afraid the school would be lost without the appreciative qualities of said giggle. To the Janitors, we leave the waste paper left behind in our desks, providing some of it is not pieced together and read. To Raymond Burtch, the stature of Fred Groscup. Fred says hard work and brains make a man, so get busy, Skeeter. To Eleanor Brown and Thais Hamilton, the typing abilities of Marguerite Vogeding and Mary Edythe Johns. We hope these two will Bring home the bacon ' too. To Dot Lewellyn, Evelyne Elam wills the vast experience she has gained since she has edited the annuai. To Ben Casebeer, since we know he would like to have it, Wilford Richmond ' s secrets concerning the art of note-writing and dates. To Kate McCully and Kate Owens, because of their deserving nature, we give the bide-ait-home qualities and the meekness of our Twins, Marcia and Maxine. To Bill Duerk we ask for the privilege of bestowing the art of whirling a base- ball now Claimed by Ward Shippy. We think Dorothy Kingsbury and Reba Smith, as well as Esther Stump and Kate DeVeny, are deserving of the methods of holding eternal friendships such as Evelyne and Alverta seem to have. Anyone who wants them may have the K ' ville girls now in possession of Octy. Willie, and LaMar. The curly locks of Edith Houser are hereby specially conceded to Julia Murray, as well as the ability to sing which is now held in keeping by Helen Brown. = ( CO X As much as we hate to do so, but since we think we really should, the artful- ness of Sterling Ward is bequeathed to anybody who thinks he is able to use it to advantage and better than did our Sterling. We wonder what we will do without them, but it has to be done, so if anyone wants to organize an orchestra like that one now in our midst we hope they find ears for music like ours had. Arthur Hopkins is found to be deserving of the Bookkeeping ambitions which Edith Wilmot has. Finley Nash has earned the right to hold the floor as does Bob in Cicero! Who of you are going to accept the expert chauffering service now held by Gerald Snyder? It is an admirable, but responsible job we are willing to bet. Here ' s a chance! What are some of the Sophie boys going to do without some of our Senior girls, we want to know. They are still retained by the Senior class and cannot be had. If we find one, we will bestow an alarm clock upon Miss Harvey, for she ought to have one for her typing classes. Certain sure, doesn ' t somebody want our little Tootie ' s ability to ask funny questions and say crazy words and phrases. We have to admit though that she has been in training, and it is not quite so funny. Whoop-si-ditti! If wishes were horses somebody might have a barn full of them tor we will the ability of wishing now in possession of Wanuie Eldridge to any deserving soul. Wayne Sherrick ' s case ' bears watching and we are trying to find someone up- on whom to bestow this honor. It is still under consideration. Barney Sithen will let anyone who wants it have the secret ability of keeping silence in Class Meetings. It is the stick on the chalk tray in Miss Thrush ' s room. No one could be more generous than we, for right here and now, free-of-charge and taxation, we lend our Wells, and I don ' t knows to all good and faithful users of such articles of speaking paraphernalia called superfluous waste of breath. Well, in signing the document, we don ' t know whether or not we have as yet remembered or forgotten everybody we intended to, and if anyone thinks they are cheated, we are awful sorry and will try to do better when we are again the class of Twenty-Seven and graduate from this G. H. S. Oh, yes, we almost forgot something, and that was our good-byes. Indeed we are sorry, but we cannot bequeath any handkerchiefs or tears for when you are Seniors and as dignified as we are, you will be loathe to part with these treasured articles too, and especially when they are so much needed. Witness, if you care to have read this far, the sign of the Senior Class, and none else whatsoever, on this the Fifteenth Day of March by the calendar, and the Hour of Twelve at Noon by the Clock, in the Year of Fame and Prejudice, 1927. We hope you still feel we have our wits about us and we know and feel, except for spring fever, that we have excellent health and a mild disposition if you leave us alone. Please see that this will is executed to the fullest possible extent. The Seniors of Twenty-Seven. — Madeleine Coombs ' 2 7 My term expires with the reading of thi.s will! — Ebe Elam. •- { CO X i v - -V Iv eb-a _ r N Si ' hI stv Wt o ' 3 r: V 3 ' 3 ' ? yU) (}YO ;?Tc ( uT T-c; ' Si 5 B G •7 T V) v - x f - ■ • X -.- w.
