A Dedication We the Seniors of the Class of 1948, wish to dedicate this edition of the Cardinal Echo to three persons whom we feel have helped greatly to make these years successful and happy ones: To Mrs. Margaret Brown and Mrs. Helen Ross, who have prepared food for our bodies, while others were furnishing the food for our minds. And to Mr. Raimer Seman, our janitor, whose patience and good humor have done much to make our last few years at G. H. S. years we will long remember. So to you whose efforts are little mentioned, but greatly appreciated by us, we dedicate this first edition of the Cardinal Echo.

' And to all the students of G. H. S. who contrib- uted toward making this annual a success- ful one. J L, am 35? We, the Senior Class of '48 wish to thank the faculty for giving us a guiding hand through these trying years. Without their faith in us, our graduation would not have been possible. They've had trials and headaches with us and sometimes we were disgusted with themg but on the whole they're a grand group. XVe'd like to introduce them to you. First, we would like for you to meet Mr. C. P. Bunnell, our superintendent. He has been with us now for five years. He has given us many words of encouragement and lots of sound advice. He listens to all our gripes from the little boy who fell off the slide to the senior who doesn't like a certain demerit. He is the backbone of our school. Along with his duties of administration, he teaches. classes in general business, general science and govern- ment. Next, we give you our Principal, Mr. C. L. Williams. He has his time for work and his time for play, and he is a friend of all the students. Along with his many other duties, he teaches classes in biology, chemistry, and physics. He has been with us four years. -r This is our coach, Mr. Albert Porter. To him goes the responsibility of guiding basketball, baseball and track teams to success. This makes his second year and he's doing a fine job. Along' with his coaching and physical education classes. he teaches history. Here we have our music teacher, 'Mr. William Engel. who is a newcomer to our school this year. He comes to us from South Dakota. He had charge of the music in grades fifth through eighth. He also directs the best marching band in county, a good orchestra, and fine choruses. Along with these many duties he also has an eighth grade science class. Our Vocational Agriculture instructor, Mr. Ellwood Parrott is also starting his first year here. He finished his work at Ohio State and is presenting lots of new ideas to his classes. The fellows like him a lot. Mrs. Muriel Parrott-that's right she's the wife of the Agriculture teacher-is teaching Vocational Home Ec. This is her first year of teaching here and she comes to us from Yellow Springs. Along with her duties of teaching the girls sewing and cooking she has charge of the F. H. A. Her work meets the approval of all who know her. Mrs. June Blocher-you remember her before as June Ross--is still teaching commercial. Along with her duties of teaching the girls to be good secretaries, she has charge of the Y-Teen girls and also the Annual Staff this year. Mrs. Marguerite Stoltz is our English instructor. She has been here for 13 years. We are sorry to have no picture of her, but we're sure you have seen her around. She directs all the plays besides her English in the school. E . f V L E QYAI ROA?

The entire infield and the regular pitching and catching staff of last season gradne ated, and the task of rebuilding the squad from the new men faced coach .llorter at the beginning of the season.

The l-Sand, consisting of fifty-five mem- bers, started things rolling by playing at the Darke County Fair. Then soon after school started they were entered in two marching contests: one at the llradforfl Pumpkin Show, and the other at New Madison. The Band won first place in both contests giving them the name of the best marching band in the county which is an honor to be proud of. The Band, as is the custom, also played at the half of all the home basketball games. To add to the color and appearance of the group we have added some extra attractions to our lland this year. liesides our very efficient drum majorette, Charlotte Blocker: flag twirlers, and flag bearers: we have added five junior twirlers. They are Nancy Myers, Luanna Erisman, Mar- pory Ann Martin, Patricia Cctrel, ard Connie Studebaker. The l-land has played for the Farmers Institute. Community Fair, and other attractions of the school year. Although we are losing Mary ,lane Shafer, Glen l-ieisner, janet Carol Miller, Charlotte Blocher, Hob Keller, Marvin Miller. and lilob Stoltz. we are adding twenty new members to make our l-Rand even bigger and lzetter next year. A very beautiful operetta An Old Kentucky Garden was presented on Nov. J, and 5. lt was the most successful operetta ever given at Gettysburg School. It was one of the biggest events of the year in which almost every boy and girl in high school either had a main part or took part in the chorus.

Mrs. Muriel Parrott Gettysburg F. H. A. is also proud to boast that Sue House also serves as the Darke County F. H. A. President. Beginning the year with a formal. candle light initiation and installation of officers, the club found itself with thirty-five mem- bers. Then the work began! Co-sponsored by the F. H. A. and F. F. A., the Community Fair was held in October, and the girls realized a large profit which is being saved for a trip in the spring. Three November entires included the F. l-I. A's sponsoring a play party for the entire high school, the installation of a brand new F. l-l. A. at Bradford by the Gettysburg Officres, and a demonstration of the correct procedure of a formal in- stallation officers at the county rally held at Yersailles. Other meetings were spent in varied activities. The study of parliamentary procedure and F. H. A. degrees, a Christmas party at which Santa distributed gifts, and a talk and demonstration by the local beauty operator on Hair Styles were some of these activities. On February 16th the Mothers were guests at an afternoon style show. This was followed by a tea in charge of the freshmen. One of the spring activities will be an .International Good lVill progarm at which foreign war brides will discuss customs of their country. Also a joint party with the F. F. A., degrees work, and a district picnic are planned. The girls hope to climax the year with a trip but are still in thc process of discussing its where- abouts. So will end a busy F. Il. A. year! SUE HOUSE. Pl'4'Sl'dt'lIf F. F. A. The Gettysburg Chapter of Future liarmers of America for the year 1947-48 consists of thirty one members. The officers of the chapter are: Harold D. Clark Jr. ...............,.............. President Kenneth Horner. . . . . Vice President Dale Schultz .... .. Secretary .lim Flory ..... .. Treasurer David Monnier .... . . Reporter junior Null .......... .. Sentinel Mr. Ellwood Parrott ............................. Advisor A meeting is held once each month in which is included business program, rec- reation, and refreshments. Each boy is asked to serve on a committee some time during the year, which we feel is a means of leadership training for the boys in our chapter. Last spring, several of the boys attended the State F. F. A. meeting in Colum- bus, which is held in connection with the State judging Contest. Ralph Garber was awarded the State Farmers degree at this meeting, as well as being a member on the dairy judging team. Gettysburg is hoping to have one or more win the co- veted degree this spring. This past fall, Gettysburg played a large part in the Darke County Fair. Out ofthe sixty steers shown by F. F. A. members all over the county, Gettysburg ac-- counted for some thirty odd head. There were also exhibits in other departments as well. Gettysburg F. F. A. teams participated in both grain and dairy cattle judging and placed third in each. NV e felt this was very good as some of the team members were absent from the contest. The two Junior Fair board members from Gettysburg last year were Bill House and Harold Clark. jim Flory has been elected to fill Bill's place as a junior is elected each year to replace the graduating senior. Both the F. F. A. and F. H. A. were well pleased with outcome of the 1947 Community Fair. Over S100 was netted by each chapter and we feel the com- munity was well pleased with the two day event. The Ball Park lights were ded- icated on the second night of the fair. In October of 1947 each Gettysburg F. A. officer was represented at an Officers Training school held at Sidney, Ohio. At this school the duties of each officer were presented and discussed and the boys feel this is a very worthwhile way to properly prepare themselves for their job during the year. Kenneth Horner and Harold Clark attended our National F. F. A. convention in Kansas City, this past November. The boys stood half their own expense and the F. F. A. chapter, the other half. They had a very interesting and educational experience during the week's convention and had many valuable comments to make on their return to Gettysburg. More boys plan to attend the convention. both State and National, this coming year. During the first part of March, the County and District Public Speaking and Parlimentary Prececlure contest will be held. Gettysburg F. F. A. Plans to have an entry in each. A plaque was received last year in the parlimentary procedure contest. Our annual pest war contest between the odds and evens ended as of Feb- ruary first with the odds ending seven thousand points ahead of the evens. The score was 22,000 to I 5,000. The winning team members, captained by Junior Dickey, were all treated to ice-cream and pop by the losers, who were led by junior Null. The pest war ended early this year and was held at an unusally inconvenient time, as basketball season was in full swing during the entire period of the contest. Gettysbusg won first place in the county last year, but has fallen down considerably this year due to the above reasons. This has been a brief summary of the activities of the Gettysburg F. F. A. during the past year. We are expecting more and bigger things to happen during the coming year. ll.-XROLD D. CLARK, Ir., Pr'0s1'a'c11f. Y-Teen Club Mrs. Keith Blocher - Adviser H'Y'ClUb Mr. C. P.

I left Gettysburg june I, 1948 and here I am back again after being away for nearly ten years. lt certainly is wonderful to be home. I landed my rocket ship at the airport and took a taxi to the down town district where I got out and looked at an entirely different Gettysburg. I wonder if all my classmates have changed as much as the town has. It has grown considerably with many new buildings and businesses. A Everyone wasdriving around. in cars and as I knew I couldn't drive about here on earth in my rocket ship, I decided to buy myself a new car. After walk- ing down the street a ways I saw a car show room and so I went in, and who was there but my former classmate Jim Elliott, ex-sailor, who runs the Elliott Motor Sales. VVhile we were finishing the business transaction, in which I bought a 1958 Buick convertible for S3500 and my rocket. two cute little boys with butch haircuts ran in and asked for their cuts but Jim sent them home to mother. Across the street from E1liott's stood a big office building and as 1 had :I wicked toothache, I decided to go over and see if there was a dentist to pull my tooth. Entering the spacious lobby, who should I bump into but junior Null. Vfe got into an interesting conversation and l found that Junior is now a traveling salesman for the Darding Farm Implement Company. It seems they are making all types of farm equipment featuring the new Jet tractor and that they experiment with them on Don's farm northeast of Gettysburg. My tooth was throbbing something fierce and so I excused myself and looked at the directory for a dentist and who should I find but Dr. Ned Denlinger. Zooming up to the ninth floor I walked to Dr. Denlinger's office. Entering the reception room, I saw,a lucious blonde receptionist who told me that Dr. Denf linger was busy but would I please sit down and he could see me in a few minutes. Sitting down, I picked up an Esquire magazine. XYOW! XVhat a pretty girl on that cover. Photographing those pictures would be one job that I'd like. Say, I wonder who does photograph them? It says here Cover by Kenneth Pence, the favorite photographer for beautiful women. Say, Pency seems to be making quite a name for himself, and in a job I envy. Dr. Denlinger said he would look at my tooth now, so I went into his office. lVhile he looked about my tooth, he told me about some of the class of 48 . It seems that Juanita and Bill McMiller are out in California where they run a movie drive-in. Their lucky children get to see all the comics for nothing. Ned told me that Ruth I-Ianey's husband is now preaching at one of the new churches in town. I must go to his church Sunday and hear him. Dr. Denlinger says he is proud of his two children because they have suc.1 pretty teeth. Ned always had beautiful teeth. I-Ie soon relieved the pain with a new drug, which was invented by janet C. Miller, a nurse who is well known for her experiments with new drugsj Janet and her husband live in an estate on Long Island Sound, where she .has a laboratory. .Bidding goodbye to Ned, I left his office and walked down the hall to the elevator. As I passed a door I heard someone talking loudly and paused a minute to do a- well-uh-a little eaves dropping. VVhy it was Marvin Miller and with him was June Keeler. It seems that june has run into some legal trouble during her campaign for President and Marvin, as one of the country's leading lawyers, is trying to straighten her out. My, what an argument! l.t seems that June wants to change a part in the Constitution which states that one must be 35 to run for president and Marvin says it can't be' done. Wfhat woman wants to admit she is 35? IVow! There comes a book flying through the door. Ouchl I ducked too late. Jeepers. my forehead is cut and deep too. l'd better find a doctor to look about it. No more eaves dropping for me. l In the same office building l found the office of Robert Keller, M. D. I opened the door to the office and who should l see but Pauline Buskirk. or it used to be Buskirk. Pauline informed me that she only works for the doctor on his reg- ular n1.11'se's day off, for Pauline is busy managing her home and family.

Everywhere in the city tue accomplishments of man are in evidence, skyscrapers, electric trains, radios, beautiful clothes, giant neon signs--all the things that proclaim the man the master builder. But against this front of ease and grandeur the city dweller has no real contact with the basic things of hvingg he is merely a cog in the machine. But let this city dweller come to the small town. There he loses a lot of his self-esteem. lile can't push buttons and just turn switches and can't give orders. He has to be patient, meek and neighborly. But more than this, it means the re- turn to a kind of life where every person exists as an individual. Once more he becomes a human being to the grocer, the druggist, the milkman, and yes, even the people next door. And how different these people are! Kind and helpful. decent and sympathetic, sensible and understanding. From an average morning of a typical small towner you can more easily nn, derstand the factors that show what I like about a small town. than you could gain from studying countless books on the subject. I walked into the barber shop one morning and lgefore l had shut the door the barber said, Hear you folks had a bloated cow ? Considering that the cow had been bloated that very morning the town grapevine via party line had done remark- ably well. After leaving the barber shop I went to the garage where jake asked me if Dad had any trouble with his car since he had ground the valves. I sat around and listened to a group of farmers from the lleech tell how fifteen of them had gotten together the day before and picked -loe RIiller's corn. Joe had been sick in bed for a couple of months now. After leaving the garage I stopped at the post office and there l met Mrs. Niel who gave me the annual message for my Mother. Lucy Arnold, had a new baby-- Chester wasn't working and the Grangers were fixing baskets. They would be out to get Mother at half-past four. Come to think of it, this is the sixth time I have carried this same message home. It is just this sort of friendliness and neighhorliness that makes living in .1 small town real living. In our town just as in any small town, for geographic lo- cation or climate makes no difference. every person exists as an individual person- ality and has the opportunity to live without being merely a man-in-the street. a street address or a customer to whom things are delivered. In a small town each person's presence is clearly visibleg his loss. more keenly felt. No amount of money, no position, no power. could be worth as much as the fellowship of my neighbors. the confidence of my friends. and the pleasure T got from walking down the home town street and bumping elbows with folks who say, HI-li, Bob V' Hob Stoltz A SENIOR'S THOUGHTS You may think this is dramatizing the situation, but it is something to think about-this is our last year as seniors ill the public schools. We the upper class- men have reached the end of the line. It doesn't seem possible that twelve years of school will too soon be over g they have gone by so quickly. After we walk out of this school this spring and we all hope to be graduates g we shall be shutting the door on one phase of our lives, lock- ing it in our memories and throwing away the key. From then on We shall be but as outsiders looking in. Since we were six years old we have walked the paths to and from the ulittle- red-school-housef' Then, in a ceremony lasting an hour or so, it will all end. Then we will be facing the world on our own. Some of us are puzzled. lX'hat are we going to do? Are we going to college? lVi1l we make new friends? All sorts of questions are facing us. Up until now we have had our parents and teachers to guide and advise us. XYe will have to think for ourselves and make our own decisions. So we, the graduates of 48 walk through these halls of G. H. S. with a feeling of superiority, feeling that we are the big shots of the student body. Don't you wonder what you'll be doing just a year from now? just think after twelve years of studying Q15 overnite we will be given the finishing touches and almost before we realize it, will be pushed, into the hustling. bustling world with only school and home training to carry us on. Twill be a l 'ff ni ni nt but G. H. S. holds mans' nianv momories for me. Jig 0 e 1 1 ' 1 By Aloha Purtec THE OLD PORCH MIRROR That old porch mirror that most neigbors knew. l remember it yet, and I know that you do. One corner broke out, and a sort of a crack That ran half way across and a quarter way back The cheap wooden frame with the varnish all gone But the grease and the dirt and the fly stayed on. :Xud then the quick silver was missing in spots llut that didn't bother my Dad or me a lot We picked the good places and managed to shave .Ns we looked at our faces in the ripples and waves. No wonder the mirror was terribly wrecked. XVhen you thought of thc faces it had to reflect .Xnd the comb that layed on the window sill underneath All chuckefl full of gum though it lacked a few teeth And there on a bench was a rusty wash pau. XYhcre we smeared tar soap on our faces and hands The boss those days didu't go much for expense You could buy the whole outfit for sixty-five cents But bud, let me tell you that old looking glass Has reflected the faces of men with a past. I wonder if it didn't back up with surprise If it read what was looking just back of their eyes. l'll bet tl16l'ClS a lot of old farm hands can recall That battered old mirror that hung on the porch wall. Paul C. Brown My Old Farm Home lt isn't much to look at This old brick home of mineg The grounds have not been landscaped And thehouse is far from fine. There are smudges on the paper And stains upon the doors, A window cracked by carelesness And scratches on the floors. llut shade trees grow about it And there are woodland ways. Closeby, the trees bears sweet fruit From May to August days. And a pen where lambies grow 5 The young calves flee the presence Of strangers in embryo. No, it isn't very fancy This place where I roam, lint it's next best to heaven lfor its my happy liome. Paul V. llrmrn An Old Farmhand's Meditation l'1n an old ugly farmhand I'm coming close to the end of my trail, I ain't done as good as I ought to Uut struggled and tried not to fail. So tonight My Heavenly Father, On Starlight that comes from afar, Send me strength to keep on a working To help out our boys in the war. Please make me more thankful for freedom And grant me the wisdom to be, A farmhand who is not forgetting Of you boys who fight over sea. And free me from all thoughts of profit Such profit as greedy ones planned, just give me the right to keep helping By being a good old farmhand. I hailed from the Buckeye state, I've been sixty one years in Darke Co. And I think Darke Co. is great. A boy of twelve years I came to this place Many people I count my friends, I've been forty nine years in this old brick house W' here I hope to stay to the end. It is brushy, rocky, and rough My neighbors I cannot all see, But the country around old Beans Mill Is Home Sweet Home to me. Paul C. Brow n TRIBUTE TO MY HUMBLE HOME -. There's a stock farm near Beans Mill That's falling to decay There is no one left to refrain it Since the owner passed away. There's an old brick house and stables The scales have tumbled down, The lane is full of washout's Where the produce once went to town. W'eeds grow in 1ny paths and lane XVhere once was only dust. The barn door hangs on one bent hinge XVhich squeaks with every gust. Three miles of fence upon the place, A post stands here and there. There's a few old apples along the lane There limbs are white and bare. Old wagons stand around the place Scraps of iron rusty nails Broken wheels and horse shoes, A few old leaky pails. The chimney, too, is nearly down It's falling brick by brick, Theres a big hole in the old dirt levee That runs along the creek. The house has lost its reddish paint And now is weathered brown. The hail broke out the windows The porch has rotted down. Theres a bird nest in the attic, Theres a swallow on the wing. In the corner lives a woods mouse In his nest is every thing. W'inds blow through the windowsg Dust drifts on the floor Light shines through the shingles Rains splash through the door. A family once lived here Until the faithful day The place is almost abandoned Qince they have died and passed away. I'll call this a poem I wrote it on the spot Thinking of nothing else Will say Forget-me-not. I am of a kindly spirit No glory sought me or fame A friend of all I chanceflto meet Paul C. Brown is still my name. STUDY HALL ln every school There is a room, Empty of study, Full And of gloom. in this room, Resides a teacher, Studious pupils, , And But other creatures. when dear Teacher Dost leave the room, Books fly shut, Things start to boom. An erasure is thrown It parts your hair. You And turn around frown in despair. It does no good, You The just get teased thing to do, Is act like you're pleased. Your book is tossed Into The the air, ' back comes off, But. you don't care. You And You And You But You And gossip with your neighbor, tell her your troubles, chew your gum, blow your bubbles. leave the room soon come back, take your seat sit on a tack. Yoi holler Ouch! And jump with pain, In walks the teacher And you catch Holy Cain' He gives you a lecture And three days detention You wonder why, But dare not mention. The bell rings, You change your classes, 'She halls are jammed, The kids come in masses. I sometimes wonder How I get in such messes Tell you what I'll do, I'11 give you four guesses. One, I'm a sophomore, A little blond girl Two, I'm a nitwit With my mind in a whirl. Three, I'm in high school, For how long, no one knows Four, I'm a spoiled kid, As everyone knows. This is my story, I sadly relate. Have to run now, For I have a date. A date with a teacher His name I'll not mention But he's the bright guy, Who is minding detention.
