THE PIONEER Vol. 10. Goshen High School, Goshen, N. Y., June, 1914. Price 25 Cents. STAFF Editor-in-Chief, Karl Wehinger. Assistant Editor, Alice Dayton. Assistant Editor, Philena Young. Advertising Manager, Elting France. INTRODUCTION The Senior Class of 1914 are presenting to the public at the close of their life in Goshen High School this tenth edition of the “Pioneer.” Though all the seniors’ names may not be inserted as the authors of any particular paragraphs or articles, nearly every one in the class has contributed something toward the paper. We have tried to make this Pioneer represent a proper school spirit, and any jokes or knocks found within are given with ample sense of humor behind them, and will, we are sure, be received in a like manner. In behalf of the seniors, I take this opportunity of thanking all our friends for the part they have taken during the past year in making our various school functions successful. We wish all to know that we appreciate most deeply the patronage given our enterprises and the interest taken in everything pertaining to our school life. To the teachers we owe more than to any others, for it is through their efforts that we have attained this position as seniors. There is nothing that we can do except thank them for all they have done for us, but we want them to know that they have our sincerest gratitude. Editor.

And now the Class of ’14 is waiting for the happy moment when they can take the honored seats. The Class of ’14 is the largest to be graduated from dear old G. II. S., but let us hope that each class will grow, as we have done. First, comes Reginald Waldo, the honorable President of our Class. This worthy member travels back and forth to G. H. S. daily on the Campbell Ilall Flyer and Montgomery Express. He first started to study in this Temple of Learning in 1911 in his freshman year. He learned his A, B, C’s and the Rule of Three in the “little schoolhouse on the hill” in Campbell Hall. We all wish him success in his future occupation. Douglas Jackson, “the great lecturer on anatomy,” is our Vice-President. He is one of the illustrious fellows who are receiving their diplomas in three years. “Professor” Jackson started in the Goshen schools in the first grade and has worked diligently up to this honorable position. We hope he will never err and go to a prize-fight as Mr. Goodly did. Bertha Bookstaver has received the renowned position as Treasurer to this estimable Class. “Minerva” came to G. H. S. in her sophomore year from the large city of Bullville, where she obtained her early education. We hope she will remember the Class of ’14 when she sits before the fire in 1990. Now, comes the shining light of the Class—the esteemed William Vogel. He is a protege of the Yonkers schools and came to Goshen in the seventh grade. He has received so many honors that I can not begin to tell you about them all. He is Valedictorian and Secretary of the Class, and the winner of many prizes. We hope he will make his name and renown as a lawyer, and I advise the other members of the Class to remember to go to him with their divorce cases. Alice Dayton has toiled incessantly, both in speaking and in studying, from the first grade to the last year in High School. We wish her luck in her future occupation as an elocutionist. Mary Fitchie, another Campbell Hall citizen, journeys daily to Goshen on the Campbell Hall Express trains (she wouldn’t ride on a local). She first honored Goshen High School with her presence in her freshman year. I trust she will be as
