Like Ulysses of old, their motive was to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield ” Under the guidance of the Great Revealer of Truth they sought their goal religious freedom. Protected by His tender vigilance they crossed the ocean and landed on bleak and barren shores. Tneirs was to settle a wilderness and found a nation for their posterity. The vision of the future was ever present in the minds of the sturdy pioneers. They never lost sight of moral right and truth and the reward of a zealous pursuit of them, the principles for wnich they left their homeland. By deeds of piety and purity, the founders of our nation ever kept before them a vision of the Great Beyond. Almost twelve years ago, we, the Seniors of '34, launched on a journey over strange seas. Our motive was to bend our twigs so that we mignt reap forests of knowledge. Under the patient training of the faculty we started our voyage on unknown waters. Ours was to acquire mental development, to lay a foundation for our future. Four years ago at the beginning of the last circuit of our itinerary, we chose as our motto More Beyond. We have striven, as ever before, to be aware of the presence and guidance of the Great Teacher. Our foundation has been laid. Our next task will be to build, upon our foundation, stepping-stones to success. In a very short time, we, diploma in hand, shall be leaving this school, this, our foster-mother for twelve years. Like our sturdy ancestors we shall be leaving friends and scenes dear to us. But we shall always recall fond memories. As a token of our appreciation of the twelve happy years spent within these walls, we leave this year-book May you glean many happy moments from these pages. May you in your life be able to catch a gleam of the More Beyond. And now as we Seniors spend a few more happy hours here, and then set forth to learn in the School of Life, may we always keep before us a vision of the More Beyond. May we always remember that he is happiest who serves his fellow-men best. May we ever be worthy of the name, Pioneers of Today.

MYERS who departed this life December 21, 1930 1934 gX'c? GXc TATTLER (ixD CLASS HISTORY NE moment, please! Will you permit me to tell you a great secret? After due consideration I knew I must disclose it. This startling fact is that these honora- ble Seniors were once - Freshmen. We were not the ordinary group of students, we were very, very brilliant. We were perhaps the most intelligent class ever to enter this High School. I suppose that the reader will beg to differ with me but—give us another deep thought We started our journey with thirty-seven members. We had much to hear and see on our trip although we were very brilliant. We had as leader of our class, Miss Hollett. Her very close helpers on this part of the excursion were William Nungester, Roger Humbert and Cleona Borton She was a very good driver and always kept us moving onward. Our first year was most pleasant except for one dark blot. One of our classmates, Kenneth Myers, passed to the Great Beyond. He will always be remembered for his kind and loving smile. After a three months' vacation thirty-one of us resumed our places on our adventure. We began to realize that the more we studied the more we didn't know-On this part of our journey we came to more new and rough cities such as “World History and Plane Geometry. Yes it was plain for some but solid'’ for others. Well, time flew and it was time for us to elect a driver again. We elected Mr. Reed, who took us rapidly but very carefully. His front seat riders were Ivan Schaffner, Alma Belle Stoner and Cleona Borton. In the fall of '32 there were thirty of us piled in our automobile to travel nearer to the town Education. We had two new passengers, Geneva Brink and Florence Acker, whom we have enjoyed immensely. This was indeed an eventful year. We enjoyed Mr. Reed s driving, so again we elected him. His executive committee wis Roger Humbert, Norma Borton and Cleona Borton. In this part of our four year trip we presented The Red-Headed Stepchild Our next great task was giving the Seniors a banquet. This we greatly enjoyed doing and our efforts were appceciated to the fullest extent. This great event wound up our most important tasks for the year. We started on the last year of our trip in the fall of '33. We realized our High School days would soon be over and we must begin our life’s work. We elected Mr. Cotterman as leader for the last year of our journey. Roger Humbert, Norma Borton and Cleona Borton were his front seat passengers. Three of the stars of the basketball team are members of our class—Ivan Schaffner, Stanley Ely and Roger Humbert. Elmer Kunkle and Gilbert Snow were managers of the team. Early in this part of our career we, the Seniors, desired to publish an annual. With the consent of Mr. Thompson and our sponsor, we decided to begin planning for it. This was indeed a great undertaking. We, as Seniors, also present as our play Oh, Professor! the laugh of the year. As we look back over our four years of High School career we are confident that our time was well spent. We are indeed grateful to our parents, school board, and teachers who made this possible. We are now looking ahead dreaming and wondering what the future holds for us. Thus ends our journey at Fayette High School. Cleona Borton 1934 2 c) oXO TATTLER q O WILL AND TESTAMENT 8E IT KNOWN TO ALL HUMAN BEINGS, That We of the Senior Class of Nineteen Hundred Thirty-Four, of the town of Fayette, of the county of Fulton, in the district of Northwestern Ohio, in the State of Inexpressible Sorrow and Crocodile Tears at the thought of allowing dear old Fayette High School to tread the detours of road of education without us, and wishing to make ample precaution that our valuable qualities are not forgotten or lost as pearls cast before (----); being alleged of lawful age, of sound and disposing mind, memory, judgment, and physical constitution, do herewithal publish, make, and declare this, our last Will and Testament, whereas, hithertofore, henceforth revoking, provoking, and convoking all previous and aforesaid wills made by us in moments of unaccountable weakness.

Signed: Melba Lester Revah Love Norma Borton O D 1934 e 5 TATTLER c c) TOMORROW’S STORY With a smile on my face and a sons in my heart I handed the manager my monthly report, donned my wraps and pressed the elevator button, ready to leave. Why? This afternoon my vacation started. Where? To see some of my old classmates of 34. A plane was leaving, at six o’clock, for Chicago. So I would have time to do some shopping and packing before I had to leave. I went into a smart dress shop on Fifth Avenue. Who do you suppose addressed me as proprietor of the shop Elsie Brackman. As I opened the door a little newsboy rushing by knocked a package from my arm. Before I had time to pick it up a well dressed gentleman handed my package to me. I thanked him and as he tipped his derby I recognized the President of the New York National Bank, Ellsworth Moore. He said he was on his way to have his portrait made by that famous portrait painter, Revah Love. Imagine my surprise when I boarded the plane to find that Viola Eicher was our hostess. We had a friendly chat and she said that the pilot of the plane was her husband, none other than William Foley. Viola also told me that Ivan Schaffner was now President of Brazil, South America. It seems that he has done much to improve living conditions down there. She said that only recently Catherine Baker and Vera Howell were hiking over Europe to get ideas for a book on domestic and foreign etiquette. We arrived at Chicago in the evening. I registered at the hotel and was shown to my room. I gasped ✓ when I met the owner of the hotel, Clair Billow and his wife, Geneva Brink. In the lobby, I bought a newspaper. Tne first notice that caught my eye was the topic “The World Claims A New Celebrity.’’ Reading further it seems that Miss Irene Pierce has become a renowned scientist on milk germs. I decided to go to the theater. The newsreel was being shown when I arrived. Imagine my astonishment whem I saw that my classmate, Flossie Weiser, famous critic on modern literature, had awarded Wanda Roth the Pulitzer prize for writing the best novel during the year 1953. Now for the play “Rose Marie,-’’ and who do you think was playing the lead? It was Melba Lester. The first thing I noticed on the program was that the play was directed by the well-known playwright, Geraldine Pruden. I went backstage after the play was over and we all had a friendly visit. Back at the hotel, I went into the dining room where an orchestra was playing and ordered my meal. When I was going out of the dining room I tripped on the steps and sprained my ankle. So I had to be taken to the hospital where a famous doctor, Stanley Ely, attended me. I also talked to Treva VanNortwick who was head nurse. The next morning as I was leaving the hospital I met Marguerite Stowell. She said that she had sprained her wrist in a piano concert. She was returning to the Metropolitan Opera as soon as possibie. The next day I stopped in Fayette. I went into Casey’s Ice Cream Parlor where I was greeted by Catherine Lloyd. She told me she had just received a telegram from her husband, Elmer Kunkle, saying that he had secured a patent on his catch-all mouse trap. Incidentally, the idea had bit him while in American History Class of 34. She told me that William Nungester and his wife, Norma Borton, were doing some wonderful missionary work in Africa. I decided to stop at an attractive farm house. Much to my surprise I found that it was owned by Lloyd Bretthauer, who had become a scientific farmer. Another shock to me was that the good wife was none other tnan Cleona Borton. We visited and then we both became quiet as we listened to the announcement made over the radio that Alma Belle Stoner was appointed Secretary of Labor. The next program opened with that most alluring radio crooner—Roger Humbert. Gilbert Snow was the radio humorist on the program—in other words the “Joe Penner” of 1953. “Wanna buy a rabbit?’’ It was time for the aeroplane to leave so I continued on my journey. I was satisfied now that I had either seen or heard about all of my friends and I resolved to visit them again in the near future.
