Signs of Spring A hush o'er the woodland valley, The green buds beginning to swell, The clatter of birds in the tree-tops, The rushing streams pell-mell. A mirror, the cool limpid waters. The sun reflected on high, A few scattered clouds to the eastward,- Tell us that springtime is nigh. Grace MCGriff '28 The Sunrise I stood at the top of 21 high. high hill One morning early in June. When the valley below was hushed and still Left dim by the waning moon. Then slowly there came from the reddened East The golden rays of the sun: Indeed a lovelier color feast Was never witnessed by one. Pale pink, blended with perfect blue. The blue of the morning sky. Mellowed and softened the gittering hue Of the sphere, now rising on high. And. as I stood on the top of the hill, I thought how the glitter in life Is ripened and softened by friendship, until All conflict is gone from the strife.

Previous to this year, only Seniors could participate, but this year the contest was open to all classes in the school. The essay was to be written about any phase of Lincoln's life. The following is a copy of the essay which was awarded the medal: Abraham Lincoln, the President From a log cabin in the unsettled West to the White House is the story of the life and success of Abraham Lincoln. He was born amid scenes of poverty and was raised to the highest office in the United States, the pres- idency, by the will of the people. It seems as if it was the plan of God that Lincoln should come forth to serve his country and his fellowmen in the great crisis of civil war, just as Moses came forth to help the Israelites in their time of need. Lincoln, realizing that his own power was not great enough, ever relied on and prayed to God for divine guidance in doing things for the safeguarding of the nation. In all his dealings as President, Lincoln showed a spirit of determina- tion for the right. He was convinced that A house divided against itself cannot stand. He likened the nation to this house and struggled to keep the Union secure without bloodshed. When the South began to attack property of the government, Lincoln did not give in, but fought more force- fully for the preservation of the nation. He was not only determined in his attitude toward the South but also in his attitude toward the North. During a cabinet meeting in which a grave question was being discussed, all the cabinet members voted against Lincoln's measure, but Lincoln, con- fident that he was right, exerted his lawful power by saying, Seven votes against the measure, one for: the measure is carried. In spite of his stern attitude Lincoln had a very kind heart. He gave utmost attention to the appeals of widows and mothers of soldiers. When the death penalty was issued against soldiers for desertion, Lincoln secretly examined all the evidence and reasons, and often pardoned the soldiers, for he knew the conditions in which they lived and their desire to return to their families, which had caused them to desert. Lincoln was honest and open minded, always ready to see both sides of the question. His attitude toward life and man is excellently expressed in the Gettysburg Speech and his second inaugural message. No utter- ance is more broadminded or nobler than his inaugural address. which closed with these words: With malice towards none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us finish the work we are in, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with other nationsf' Lincoln was the greatest man of the time: he was the center of thie nationg around him moved the people and activities of the country. He freed the Negroes by his Emancipation Proclamation, and by his power he led the nation safely through the dangers of civil war. He was the foun- dation of the nation, upon him the fate of the nation rested. He gave his life as his sacrifice to the welfare of his country. Secretary Stanton ably expressed Lincoln's influence on the nation then and the influence of his life and character on the world in the future, when he said as Lincoln's life ebbed away, Now he belongs to the ages.

They used to fumble now and then Ball players often do: Before Us And when fumbles came to their fellow-men, The hurt of it all they knew. But they played ball and they dug right in, Never serving a selfish plan: They Wanted the team they loved to win, And that Was the proof of a man. Never a selfish fight they fought: 'Till they answered the final rule, They gave their strength and they gave their thought To the greater good of the school. Now their days are over, and We speak their praise And wish for the loyal friend. The boys played ball in the early days, And the boys played ball to the end. Leona eil? n ,il Y ' .

True spirit may be found in the halls, in the class room, at assemblies, down town, and, of course. at the games where it is perhaps most con- spiculously demonstrated. In short. you may find Greenville High School spirit wherever her loyal students gather. We might ask, What good really comes of spirit in later life? Is it all in vain ? If spirit, a thing you will obtain if you go to high school . is only on the surface, then the answer should be in the affirmative. But the spirit of our football and basketball players, and of our truly loyal Greenville rooters, is more than a pretense. It is deep-rooted, and its value cannot be reckoned in terms of money, though it is often under-estimated by others. Since we lack experience. we can but make theories in later life: however, it seems only right and logical that the as to its use ideals set up in our youth will, to a great extent, be those followed as we grow older. Then the Value of practicing determination, courage, respect, and sports- manship in our younger days is readily realized when it is our turn to play our part in this game of life.

Ray Nicholson 997 A l:1'eshman,s ldea of Football Anne, who lived in the country. was set on getting an education. After her graduation from the eighth grade, she had no rest until her folks consented to her going to the High School, at Greenville. But it's ten miles off, argued her father. Well, couldn't I stay in town with Aunt Jane ? Wall, I reckon as how you maybe could, he finally answered, and thus granted his consent. So the second Monday in September found her in town and entering the large school building for the first time, nervous and excited as all Freshmen are. Days passed, and Anne was beginning to learn most of the funny ways of the school. At least, she didn't jump anymore when the electric bells rang so suddenly, and was able to walk more comfortably in the crowded halls without being scared to death that she would get lost or be tramped on. About two weeks later, Anne noticed a general excitement in the school, and she heard everyone talking Football . Upon inquiring, she found that football was a game that some of the boys played on a big field. She learned that there was to be a big game the next day. Anne had never seen a game of football so she decided to go with some of the other Fresh- man girls. After the game, she said she was going right down to Aunt Jane's and write a letter home to Ma and Pa. This is what she wrote: Dear Ma 81 Pa: I reckon you'll be a wonderin just what is a happenin down here. Well thers a plenty. One of the girls was a watchin me rite the other day and she says as how I should make my i's capitol and not dot them. So I sez I'm never to old to learn and I perseeds to make em capitol. Ma you'd oughter see the game we play down hear called football. My goodness but it is rough. The hole thing starts wen the band marches out. They is a fella that marches first, and he shur looks funny. He has a big cain wot he carrys for show cause their aint no one that cud use a cain and walk like he duz. Aunt Jane said he was the dum majer er somphin like that, and he shur looks swell, but l gotter laff wen he walks like he duz. And the team is all bulgy in places and show wot looks like an old korest onley they Ware it different. There is I think about 26 of em but onley 11 goes out at once. They always try to get hurt then someone else kin play. Some game huh? Well after the band plays the game starts and they is a ball that aint round, in the middle of a big field with posts at both ends and white lines in between. They all try to kick the ball at each other but cause there is onley one ball and a hole bunch of players they jist kick and Wressel with each other as best they kin. Wen they gets neer to each other they allus pick a fite. It seems as how they are all in a meen temper and hate everyone. A man in a white pare of funy pants-he has a tin horn-makes em quit fitin once in a while and line up on each side of the ball. Then one fellcr grabs it and throws it away and they all begin to fite Page one lz1n1d1'c'd mic agin. Once in a wile a feller that don't wanna fite he ketches the ball Wen they throw it away and he runs off with it, and all the people who ain't playin they jump up and down and holler as loud as they kin. The players all run after him and when they ketch him they sure run his nose in the ground. Once one of our boys he cot the ball and run away with it and wen he got to the sticks he was so tired he set down and so they started all over again. When they have beet a feller up so bad he can't hardly walk they take him away and put in another one so each will have someone else to fite with. Well its a mity excitin game and after it was all over they sed we had beet. I guess I'll have to get some of my Inglesh lessen for tomorro. We will git our grade cards next weak and I asked my teacher wot I was a goin to get and she sed if I studied reel hard and 1'evewed my old grammar and spellin book a lot. she mite give me a But I don't know what that means either cause we never had d's in country school and I was afraid to ask her. Well goodbye From your lovin dotter Anne P. S. You kin send me a little more money if you have any to spair. It costed me 25C to go to that football game.

The time is growing shorter and to me It seems a punishment, and looks like fate Will get some prisoner, but we will flee, And never will it capture learning folks Who live for more than merriment and jokes. 1 Carolyn H. Huber '28 Those Pedagogues Did you ever stop to think What queer persons teachers are? What eccentricities their minds contain Though each one's an intellectual star? Each teacher has his own device To make loud students act So Nice. They're stern, good natured, grumpy. grand, Or what the situation may demand. By notebooks, tests, and plans galore They try to make us study more. For fear of grades, or life, or shame I dare to give no teacher's name For some I know this will suffice To set upon my head a price. E'en if they are so stern and cold. Funny, angry, or even bold At least we must at last agree That we are worse than they can be. Harold Baker '27 Page one lzznzdred three '51 if 76 '?f?f-'W 17 . ff 1 LV?-f 'Q'v S , ' lf?

By the efforts of the English, the Art, the Physical Education, and the Music departments. the students of G. H. S. have presented quite a few plays which were very successful. On April 24 and 25, 1926, the Junior class presented a play entitled Dummy, a three act comedy by Ross Farquar. The cast included Robert Sink as Professor Walton: Cecile Troutwine as Mrs. Walton: Dorotha Hamilton as Margaret Walton: Ray Mannix as Curt Blair, otherwise known as Dummy : Jack Cornell as Jim Cameron: Gerald Teegarden as Samuel Hedges: Opal Foltz as Dorothy Barton: Leroy Alexander as Alaska: and Loretta Leonard as Sylvia, the maid. This was given under the direction of Miss Martha Murphy. Miss Bier aided with the stage decorations and Mr. Thomas contributed some orchestral numbers. The Department of Girls Physical Education presented, on May 14. 1926, a pageant, The Man in the Moon . This was arranged and directed by Miss Ceres Williams, physical director, who was aided by the music and art departments. The settings of the fourteen scenes in the pageant varied. They represented an Indian village, way out West in Kansas, an Italian Garden, Hong Kong, A Gypsy Camp-fire, the Emerald Isle, Winter in Russia, Under Southern Skies, An Artist's Dream in France, Sunny Spain, and Sidewalks of New York. g The cast consisted of about one hundred and eighty Junior and Senior High girls some of whom gave solo dances. The Senior class play was entitled Robena in Search of a Husband . a comedy in four acts by Jerome K. Jerome. Della Floyd took the part of Mrs. Mulberry: Ella McGreeVey, Robena Pennicuique: Norman Lytle. Kate Gawbet: Pauline Linder, Susan Raffleton: Tom Kerlin, Forest Greenleaf: Ben Bowman, Amos: Ralph McEldowney, Dr.: Homer Brand, the Inspec- tor: Howard Armacost, Jolly Boy: Carl Beichler, Post Boy. Miss Elizabeth McCabe directed the play and Miss Bier and Mr. Thomas contributed their share in making the program an enjoyable one. Station YYYY, a one act comedy by Booth Tarkington, was given on February 22, 1927 in connection with the picture show Peck's Bad Boy with Jackie Coogan. The cast was composed of Robert Sink as Mr. Win- stead: Mildred Patterson, Mrs. Winstead: George Vance, Herbert Win- stead: Justina Wasson, Carolyn Winstead: Dorotha Hamilton, Anita Win- Pugv one lzmzflrcd fire' .V 1- -- -SQ, my -M' 1- , .wr --'T .xx .Q , -,Ig y .L W , i Decorations in Gym for junior-Senior Prom In Full Swing F 5534 , 'CA .9 , -' Wh ff - ry. .-gf-'i- AA::.!3-, Q.

Miss Lillian Brauch directed the play. As a special number of the Lyceum course thi'ee plays were given with selections on the organ, violin and Xylophone. The first play was The Turtle Dove , a Chinese fantasy depicting the legend of the Willow Pattern Plate. Dorothy Metzcar, Mary Brown, Alice Wheeler, and Grace Kagy had the leading roles. The second play was Suicide , a symmetrical absurdity in one act, by Conrad Seiler. The cast included Dorotha Hamilton as the girl, Ray Manix as the man, and Maurice Smith as the policeman. The last play was Crime , a satire in one act, also by Conrad Seiler, and con- sisted of Jack Cornell as the journalist, and Leroy Alexander as the crook. These plays were under the direction of Miss Lillian Branch who was aided by Miss Bier in the decorating of the stage. By the assistance of Mr. Thomas a musical program was also pre- sented. Donald Plessinger gave an excellent Xylophone solo: and Roberta Bayman and Junior Metcalfe showed their talent by duets on the violin. Westerfield's piano store donated, for the evening, an electrola which en- tertained the audience between acts.

As a rule the goal was too far removed from us. Had we been going the other way we could have made more touchdowns because of the nearness of this goal. Another difficulty was the fact that we were tackled before we got far enough to gain any yards. They just wouldn't wait. It also seemed as though most of the boys got tired before the game ended. Every time they saw a dry spot they wanted to sit clown. It looks as if the spring fever was a permanent disease with them. The majority of the players wanted to go home to supper during the intermission at the half. It seems that the only reason some of the players went out of town to games was for the ride. During these trips it was always a favorite sport to g'uess by how large a score we would be defeated. The guesses were written on the windows of the bus and after the game the closest guesser won. It has been rumored that some even guessed as high as 125 for some of the games. On the way home it was always a great consolation to think how much worse it might have been. The only reason the players dressed for the home games was to get into the game free of Charge. We had a Ch2lllC'3 to win one game if they would have stopped when we were ahead. One of the great handicaps we came up against was that the opponents always had as many men on the field as we did. According to the law of averages fifty percent must be losers and we were that fifty percent every time. Smythe and Cornell. I Page nm' lzunflrcd svrcn Oh!

Page one lzzrndrecl eight CONFESSICNS OF A JELLY-BEAN FIEND The narrator of this article, after finally losing his unequal fight against the horrible craving which could not be satisfied. has set down his experience as a con- fessed jelly-bean fiend during one of his periods when his mind was clear. fBy the writerj To begin with, I was but a modest Senior trying hard to live up to the standards of my class. My craving started in a simple way. I was writing up my history one night when I reached into my pocket and to my horror discovered the beans. As I was having trouble trying to stay awake, I took one, as I knew that they cleared one's mind temporarily. But never did I dream that they would lead me down into the lowest depths of society. To begin with, this little object seemed innocent enough. But little did I know the horrible influence it was to wield over me. It was a black one. They are usually considered the most harmful. I remember my first stimulus from this horrible drug. My mind seemed clear. Thoughts for my notebook came faster than I could write them. The objects in the room seemed to grow dim to me. It was if I were floating through the air from evolu- tion to prohibition. Finally my senses grew dim: the walls seemed to be closing in upon me, destroying my very existence. Somewhere I heard a clock strike one, two, three, and then I remem- bered nothing until the next day. The next day I walked into a store and there, staring me in the face, were the unforgetable beans. I squandered my roll of twenty cents in purchasing some more of these habit forming beans. The second time I took the drug, the results were the same, but I noticed that a craving was growing within me for these. After I had acquired the habit my eyes became starey, and I had a haggard look. My friends were fast deserting me. Oh! How I remember the horror of those sleepless nights and restless days. At night, I remember how every object seemed to be alive-the very chairs and tables. My statue of Waltz stared right through me with its sightless eyes. Every shadow seemed to hide the grim features of the horrible shapes which I beheld. After telling me this, the narrator entered into a period of coma from which it was nearly impossible for me to rouse him. Although I heard him mumble that he wanted this to go out to the members of society so that they would never take the fatal step which he had taken. So ended the confessions of a jelly-bean fiend.

VVE DON'T BELIEVE Mr. Hey is suffering from score at the football games. Smitty had just won a clas ulating him. But one of his fr him what was wrong. Here's h and I only needed the one. A guy like that would walk a nervous break-down caused by overwork. He kept SCOTCH sy roadster in a raffle. All his friends were congrat- iends noticed that he looked rather glum, so he asked is answer: HI bought two chances for two bits apiece on his hands to save his shoe leather. IF TEACHERS HAD THEIR WAY Mr. Ottm Mr. Hey- Miss Bier Mr. Allen all his time on history problms. Page one lilfndrcd twelve an-Everything would be conducted in Spanish.

Smythe and Cornell Page our llIlHfIl'!'d fllfI'fl'CIl Current Gpinion UTM S1zgg4'.fI10115-fbi' RLfbl'1II To get a better idea of The Thundering Herd I should advise a visit to the lower floor when the final bell rings. Really I believe traffic rules and regulations should be enforced. Perhaps it might be wise to delegate the Boy Scouts to direct traffic. Something should be done about all the steps in this building. By the time the pupil reaches his class, he is completely exhausted. Smith, you know, is a conservativeg he favors the installation of elevators. Cornell, a would-be gentleman, advocates escalators. Personally I am a radical, I favor having all classes but Chemistry on the ground floor.-Speaking of Chemistry.-The happy idea of erecting a new and separate building for Chemistry classes has just occurred to me. I believe it should be built on the far corner of the square at Fourth and Sycamoreg it should be air tight, and equipped with first aid appliances, lungmotors, etc. In case this proposition does not receive due consideration, allow me to suggest that all lockers be equipped with gas-masks. Cornell, being a fastideous gentle- man, thinks clothespins would suffice. The prodigous length of the halls is another matter that draws our attention. Some means of more rapid locomotion should be provided. When a pupil is forced to walk the length of three city squares to a class Kas often is the easel something should be done. For the following suggestion we are indebted to John Hey. I believe , said Mr. Hey, that each student should be provided with a scooter. I own one myself and find it to be a very safe and economical means of trans- portationf' Allow me to suggest that each student be given a flashlight to find his way through the halls. Mr. Bailey reports that several students, who were tardy to classes, excused themselves by saying that they were lost in the dark hallways. Jack Tutwiler has been absent for three days-I hope he isn't lost in one of the halls. Ray lVIaniX '27 .K X vs-... .X -. Q. -yiffs ,S ,X so Warm-.i X' lb X N' i .. ,-MX-s,r.t -. ,Sky X ' iv Y. xi .

We can remember- When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When When there was a Cafeteria Fund . we could skip classes and get away with it. there was grass on the campus. we could go to our lockers anytime. we could sleep in the assembly. Shorty was a little shyster. something was said about school dances. we won a football game. Delbert was a shy Freshman. our basketball team was the terror of Western Ohio. We didn't have to dress in gym. We held flag rushes and painted sidewalks. we had an hour and a half at lunch time. the periods were forty-five minutes long. Bob Riegel had a Ford. we could chew gum in classes. Miss Murphy didn't have gray hair. we all believed in Santa Claus. the pieces the band played all sounded alike. Charley Deeter had front teeth. we had ten periods a day. We could take a short cut through the gym. slips were sent home every month. several boys attempted to wear middies. the girls Wore long hair-and dresses. We didn't have to read ten outside reading books. Mr. Gray had a Literary Society. Mr. Martz didn't teach Physics. we had school in the Memorial Hall. you could spit on the floor and get away with it. Chemistry classes were held in the basement. girls could wear what they wanted to, 01' what they didn't want to, to school. When When When When Mr. Ottman wasn't married. Shorty didn,t have fallen arches. We thought Miss Brauch was a school-girl. We helped raise that horrible smell that comes from the Chem- istry room. I believe that you will admit that we have exceptional memories, but not one among us can remember- When Miss Lindsey bought her scarf! Ray Manix '27 Page one lznizclrvrl fifteen New Qrganizations Due to the downfall of athletics in our high school, it was decided that we should turn our attention to another phase of activity: namely organ- izations. During the school year many efficient and useful organizations were established. Unlike most other clubs these have no pictures by which the members may show their bright and smiling faces. Nevertheless these organizations have done worlds of good, and we hope for bigger and better activities next year.

The End of a Perfect Day Smythe and Cornell MISS WAGGY TONGUE SAYS- That young people prefer the dark-They could see so much better if it were light. That when on dates, boys and girls sit so close together when they are on the davenport. There seems to be so much room left at the other end. ' Gentlemen prefer blondes. A lot of Sophomore and Junior girls certainly don't act their age. Page one lizuzdrcd izincfrrn When boys get old enough to quit believing in Santa Claus, they be- come disillusioned again and believe they can beat slot machines. It is surprising how many people go to the library to study in the evening. A certain N. Broadway Junior has decided to quit talking when in Buchanan's and give the victrola a chance. She has heard that a certain notorious Junior has 'tsettled down since he found a tag on his steering wheel. That punch boards have taken more than one boy's change from the grocery. Buzz Longfellow-I'll love you always. Sleepy Myers-All ways? Buzz-Sure. Sleepy-Say, how many ways of necking do you know? George Iiatzenbarger-Environment has made man from monkey. Doc Heller-Sometimes environment makes a monkey out of a man. Mr. Fry to small scientist-This gas is very poisonous. What kind of steps would you take if it should escape? Freshman-Long ones. Billie Lehman to Peg Kline-Say, do you have the revolution Qevolu- tionl of a horse '? VVhy I Have An Inferiority Complex The thoroughfare was crowded with holiday shoppers: my two friends had preceded me down the street. Smith, I yelled. Fully half of the hurrying crowd turned inquiringly. A feeling of inferiority passed over me at so much attention. My friends not hearing, hurried on. Browne, I yelled and the other half of the crowd faced me. It has been stated that Bob Hughes' picture and the dog were well taken care of at the fire in Virginia Miller's home in January. Berniece McCabe-God created Heaven and Earth. Mr. Allen-When? Berniece-Why in the beginning of course. IN ENGLISH Alex-Delbert and I were arguing which is right, I have the largest half or the larger half. Miss Murphy-Since you are comparing, it would be comparative degree so you would say, I have the larger one. Alex-But I thought both halves were equal. Allen-What is obesity? Elma D.-I know, I'm a French student. It means nearsightedness. Miss Burt-Why do you put food with an odor on the top shelf of a refrigerator '? Freshman Girl-Because the odor circulates around the ice and freezes. Bright Student-Maybe that's the reason a garbage wagon smells stronger on a warm day: the odors have melted. DISASTER English Teacher-What is a catastrophe? Bright Student-Well, it is something used in the sentence as punctu- ation like the apostrophe.

Tell me. can you see a joke? Her tlooking straight at him!-Yes, very easily. Thoughts of a Prospective Bridegroom Charles Stark fsitting in the assembly thinking about getting marriedj-I can tell all the boys up at G. H. S. I have a Lizzy and two run- abouts. Emily Post Etiquette is the noise you don't make while eating soup. The loafers union has missed two good members lately. Their excuse is that they have to keep the Watch on the Vine.

He gave her a Christmas present. Page nm' lzulzclrvrl 1'zf.'cufy-fmt' POUR DICICS MODERN ALMANAC Never do to-day what you can put off till tomorrow. Never carry anything you can drag. If the old adage There is no rest for the Wicked is true, some of the students are far removed from being angels. The early bird gets the worm-but who wants a worm? Always squander time-God gave us lots of it. A stitch in time saves embarrassment. What is worth doing is usually too much work. Late to bed, early to rise makes a man sleepy no matter his size. A rolling stone in a shoe Causes an awful lot of trouble. A meal in the stomach is worth two on the table. Too many coaches spoil the football team. Smythe an-fl Cornell '27 A Visit to Mr. Mart! as Related by Ronald XVheeler Riegel grinned and I threw ink in his face: my mistake-Martzy was looking. Jim about blew up, told us to trot around after school. VVe did just to show him we weren't scared. As soon as we got there he asked that we assume the angle over two chairs. Riegel said, Look out lVIartzy . Martzy said, A little higher Ronaldf He hit me with a meter stick. I said Wl1at's atm? Martzy laughed and said, I'm not going to do what you thought I was. VVe again assumed a position perpendicular to the horizon. Riegel said, I was just gonna swing one on him. I tossed a whole pen-full of ink in his face and ran. It's a good thing for him that he didn't hit me again. Ronald Wheeler. Per R. M. '27 Page one lzznzdrvd t1i'v11z'y-two Zllfbe Greeniaille imes VOL. 1 GREENVILLE, OHIO, MAY 1, 1927 No. 1 G. H. S. SWAMPS PIQUA f MR. OTTMAN APPOINTED GREENVILLE HI BASKETBALL HEAD OF ENGLISH TEAM BEATS PIQUA FIVE l DEPARTMENT BY LARGE SCORE The fast Greenville High School basket- ball team added Piqua to its long list of victories, when they defeated the border city team 50 to at the high school gym Friday night. Although Sink and Alexander did not arrive in time for the game and Nicholson was out on a date, the substitutes used in their places played well and the Greenville team showed its usual fast offensive game. The local boys started their scoring early in the game and at no time during the game were they pressed by the opposing team. The team as a whole played a fine game, but Wheeler who replaced Sink at center and Riegel. Aelxancler at forward, were the outstanding playe1's of the game. The Greenville boys have not yet lost a game, and have defeated some very good teams. If they keep up this good showing they have a very good chance to win the state championship this year. NOTICE There will be chapel all day Friday. STUDENTSTMATQE FLEA FOR MORE NOTE-BOOKS The students of the Greenville High School desire more note-book work in their various classes is the report of the prin- cipal. There had been some note-book work done already but according to the students it has not been enough. They say that the note-book work is very fascinating and helps to take the monotony from the dull procedure of the class room. DELBERT HELLER LEADS CLASS IN GRADE STANDING Delbert Heller now has the highest av- erage in the Senior class. Delbert has been near the top all year but with an average of A+ in eight subjects for this month he broke into the lead. He attributes his suc- cess to Horlick's Malted Milk. The grade contest is open to all members of the Senior class. The offer of a six year scholarship in the Hicksville Agri- cultural College at Hicksville, Arizona, as a prize has made the contest very close and interesting throughout the year. Maurice Smith who was in the lead last month is now in second place and Gerald Teegarden who was ahead at the first of the year is in third place. l 1 i l l 1 O. O. Ottman has recently been appoint- ed head of the English department of Greenville High School. Mr. Ottman has taken special work in English in several of the leading universities, and is well fitted for the position. Mr. Ottman advocates a more complete knowledge of the English language in the schools and with the co-operation of the English teachers he should be successful in carrying out his plans. Mr. Ottman had studied several other languages, but he claims that English is the most perfect and most important. MR. ALLEN SAYS That Jack Cornell and Delbert Heller could talk to each other in the hall better if they would carry megaphones. That the locker trouble started off with a bang. That it would be easier for the boys and girls to pass notes if some sort of a postal system were established. That since some of the children are skat- ing, why not get out the high chairs? That he wonders if some of the boys that pull wise cracks about the poor show- ing of Greenville's teams would like to show how good they are next year. That the hall by the 2310 Assembly re- minds him of a nursery. That Robert Riegel and Ronald Wheeler should be put in separate cages. That his classes are bothered by great outbursts of talking and laughter, Prob- ably this is the echo resulting from some of the girls talking between classes. That judging from some of the note- books there must be a lot of great minds running in the same channels. That the fact that Carlton Coppock pre- fers blondes does not necessarily make him a gentleman. HARRY L. GRAY NAMED AS FOOTBALL MENTOR FOR NEXT YEAR Harry L. Gray. member of the faculty of the high school. and graduate of Yale University, has been hired as athletic coach for the season of 15127-28. Gray is a great football man, having played three years on the Yale Varsity. and having twice been picked as All- American guard by Walter Camp. In the other major sports Gray was also very important. He played center on the Yale Page one 111111611111 t11'c'11l'1f-fl11'cv THE GREENVILLE TIMES basketball team, and represented that school in the discus throw at the Olympic games. XVith Gray as coach the high school can look forward to the same success in ath- letics next year that they had this year. HAROLD BAKER EXPELLED FOR INATTENTION IN CLASS Harold Baker, a Senior in the high school. has been expelled from school on a serious charge. During a discussion in the history class while the students were sup- posed to be taking notes on the discussion Harold was caught writing a note to a young lady friend. He declared he was innocent of the charge and tried to prove that the note was material on the history lesson. After close investigation, however. the student council headed by Miss IVarvel found that the content of the note had little reference to the history lesson. Harold was found guilty of inattention and was expelled from school for an in- definite period of time.

THE GREENVILLE TIMES TWO YOUNG BOYS SPEND NIGHT IN JAIL Ronald Wllccler and I-Eobcrt Ricgcl Are Arrested for D1'sf1f1'b1'11g Pence. Two prominent young men of the city were arrested last night and put in jail until their parents got them out this morning. It seems as though an argument started when Riegel threatened to tell YVheeler's father of something that is seemingly a great secret. The argument finally ended in blows and a large crowd soon assembled to watch the brawl. The local police squad was summoned and was able to stop the fight before either one of the boys was hurt much. They were taken to the city jail where they stayed until their parents bailed them out this morning. The hearing is set for May 27 so if any sentence is given either of them it will not interfere with their school work. Dear Editor-I am a popular young man and for a long time have been going with two different girls but I find I am always in trouble with one of them. VVhat should I do? Maurice Smith. Ans.-Shoot both of them. Dear Editor-I am being menaced by several young men who are very persistent in their affections. How can I get rid of the horrible creatures? Ruth Suter. Ans.-Try carrying a club. Dear Editor-It seems that I am a failure in my school work. My grades are terrible and I am always getting called down in class. Could you tell me my trouble? Mary O'Donnel1. Ans.-I suggest more sleep, more study- ing, and fewer dates. Dear Editor-My hearing is getting very bad. So bad, in fact, that I cannot hear a person walk into the room. Where could I find something to help me? Dorothy North. Ans.-Send to Sears Roebuck and get a set of Morley Phones. Dear Editor-Where could I find a good second hand Latin pony? Robert Riegel. Ans.-I would suggest trying the book stores but if you are unsuccessful there you may be able to buy one from Ross Zellers. Dear Editor-My hair has always been very light, but it seems to be turning darker. What should I do to prevent this? Mary Stocker. Ans.+Keep on using peroxide. Dear Editor-In the last month I have become very nervous. I have been unable to sleep in school and I am able to eat only four meals a day. What would you suggest to cure this trouble'?w Gerald Teegarden. Ans.-Perhaps you have been working too hard in school or doing too much school work at home. I would try letting up on my work to see if the effects were bene- ficial. Dear Editor-I have been going with a young man for some time but he will not enter a public eating place with me. What do you think could be the trouble.- Aletha Myers. Ans.-The young man is probably troubled with embarassment ffinanciall.

Intimate-To tell about. Intimate-One who lives in a poor house. Ambition--Powder for guns. Corrupt-To throw up, like a volcano. Instinct-Blurred. Pacify-To pacify that a book is good. Ballad - Song started by ministers wandering from house to house. Apparel-Two lines going in the same direction Dower-A lady's chamber. Hamlet-Piece of armor. Flagon-Home brew cup. Hamlet-Iron head protection. Formally-Recipe telling how to make soap. Pedagogue-A large church. Buffoon-High place on a mountain. Palled-A straw bed. Bizarre-A large supper. ExistwDoor with red light over it in picture show where you go out. Tranquil-To walk heavy as on grass.

These are such partly because of necessity and partly because we wished to make our year book as original and as interesting as possible. We have tried to have each class and organization irnpartially rep- resented and to make an appeal primarily to those who are directly connected with and interested in school activities, especially those who are to publish a Chief of their own in the future.

Ours is the smallest gradu- ating class in many years, for there are only eighty-eight in it: and we have valiantly tried to make it the best class of all times. It is with deep regret that we realize that our high school career is near its end. We have indeed enjoyed these four short years and we hope that our future will be as bright as these pleasant years have been. We have always enjoyed our social times and our classes of study: we shall never forget them, nor shall we forget the teachers to whom we owe so much. The class of 1927 wishes to extend its best wishes to all future students of Greenville High Schoolg and now, taking with us many fond memories of our golden school days at good old G. H. S. , we bid you farewell.

BAIRD Dick is that fair lad with the wealth of auburn hair and that sch0ol girl com- plexion . He is president of the Sen- ior class and the chief of the annual staff. He's witty and he's wise and a confirmed woman hater. H ROBERT HUGHES Yes it's Bob-trumpet player of the Revelers . art editor of the Annual . and surgeon of the Future . Besides all ot' these good points in his favor, Bob makes the girls sit up and take notice. lsn't that right, Virginia? LEROY L. ALEXANDER Alex is one of the hip-hip boys of North Star fame. Chief among his abilities are playing basket-ball, pulling wise cracks, and acting as business manager of the magazine selling contest and the annual. Dh yes! He's an actor. Re- member the Junior class play? MARTH ALEE ARNETT You couldn't help but know who this Senior is. Curly hair?-I'll say so- black hair?fI'll say so. We wonder why Howard likes the song Sweet Thing so very much. H Vera lives near the most popular resort which bears her name. She's particu- larly fond of Irish people. AROLD BRUSS BAKER Harold has the distinction of being ' 'top- n0tcher in his class. His mental pow- ers cannot be denied, yet he indulges in the abominable practice of playing a cornet. No, he doesn't play in Orches- tra or Band, but ask the neighbors. KENNETH B. BEANBLOSSOM Kenneth is just a steady, purposeful lad of known weakness for a sweet, young Senior maiden named Cecile , Well, in this case the old saying that, The course of true love never runs smooth, fails completely. ELEN BRENNER Democracy seemed hard for Helen, and Mr. Allen wondered why. In every page of her democracy book we find some fel- low's name. That's why. Page fzveilty-one PAUL H. CLAPP When you see Paul. look around and you'll see his old Ford coupe. Though she only hits on three, Paul says she gets him there just the same. RAYMOND K. CLARK Jockey? Yes. Not horses, just hash. When it's eats call Clark , When not studying he feeds the gang. What could be more important? JACK E. CORNELL Shorty is a gOOCl-IlatI.1l'6'Cl young gen- tleman of high ideas on life and especially on a certain Senior girl. He often has trouble in class rooms, trying to find a seat. large enough for him. However, he is capable of work and has proved it as humor editor of the annual. HARRIET E. DELAPLANE Studious?-Well I should say and a wizard in Math. But her thoughts are not all on study because she's piled full of fun. She's going to be a nurse and we all know she'll succeed. FOREST HARRIS COX Coxy's the lad who makes all the noises -sometimes with a drum and sometimes just walking up the aisle in the study hall. He's famous for his brilliant rec- itations and for always having a variety of gum about his person for any girl who wants to chew. Page tzueiify-two I Q! gc' I g g e ei. :5iZr.'-s- ' - '- 2 -' , I7 , 3 Q P .- . l .... '.gfg..l.XL ROBERT E. CULTICE Bob's a whiz in bookkeeping, The way that boy adds is a wonder. No doubt he has trained his mind to work so fast from setting up pins at the Recreation Hall. CLARA LOUISE DEUBNER From her extraordinary height this girl looks down upon the other seniors. She's very wise and a jolly good fellow. LOUISE DININGER Little but mighty is Louise. She is one of our country lassies, quiet and cheerful. But what his name is-guess-we don't know. She will be some-body's stenog in the future. PAUL JOHN DININGER He is a a rather tall fellow of quiet and unobtrusive manners. Paul does not appear to believe in attractions of the opposite sex, but you never can tell. ELMA E. DREW For all the new stylesjust look at Drewy. Probably in the future she will be a star toe dancer, or a religious teacher. Who knows? A party is never quite asuccess unless she is there. She's full of pep and has a real school spirit. r. ii I F we Q . I i fl GERALDINE DUFFY Yes, it's Jerry, one of the literary edi- tors. And she's a red headed Senior, too. In this case red hair denotes quite a temper. Doesn't it Danny? MARGARET E. FOLKERTH Here is a young student very much in- terested in mathematics and all studies in general. Just remember she is about second in our class standing. She has lots more knowledge about things outside of school than you could imagine. OPAL FOLTZ Fuzzy is her nickname, and she's one who has lots of friends. Her greatest aim in life is this: getting a chance to boss Clyde. THELMA F. FOX Don't ever form an opinion of a person from his name. It does not pay, for often it is found to be a very unwise de- cision as it would be in this case. Thel- ma is a good kid wherever you place her. We need never worry about her. FLOYD DENZEL GESSLER Gessler is quite a man when dressed up in his green and white basketball outfit. He works hard in the games, for I sup- pose he wants to win praise from a cer- tain pretty, blonde Sophomore. But, gentlemen always prefer blondes. DOROTHA LEE HAMILTON We wonder what Dot's favorite color is. Look at the color of Red's hair and make a guess. Does she talk in class? Just ask the teachers of G. H. S. But in spite of her faults, she shines in all dramatic productions. JOHN HANKINS Johnny's attempts in the school room do not bring him quite as much glory as he has attained on the football field and on the basketball Hoor. As a debater in Problems of Democracy he always does his best even though he often takes the wrong side. DANIEL HARTZELL At a single glance you can tell that Dan- iel Hartzell is a shy, modest boy. When in the presence of girls he actually col- lapses. For making friends he has a distinct propensity that cannot be de- nied. As a typist he can hold his own with some ofthe best. DELBERT DEVO HELLER It's Doc at the Dot. He cheers the con- sumer and the rooter. His white pants and white apron are all the fad! ANDREW HEPNER Valentino? No, not exactly, but he sure gets the women. How he does it we don't know. Ask the girls. But then these strange women sure do fall for this cave-man stuff. ' Puyr' l'1l'l'llf-U-f1lI'6C sq, W ' A v EDITH HOLMES Edith is a quiet sort of Miss who studies hard and gets the results on her grade card. We've heard she's quite a go in French class. Dame Rumor can't find much gossip about this young lady be- cause she tends'strictly to business. LLOYD HORN Horny is a very witty fellow. He has a habit of getting girls in trouble with teachers by telling them jokes: no doubt they are always harmless, though. PAUL R. HUGHES They call him Buck . Mules buck, Fords buck, then we have saw-bucksg this man Hughes bucks right head-long in, good or bad and laughs it off. FLORENCE E. HUPE This pretty maiden favors only a few nice boys with her precious smiles. but when she does, it means something. Just now a certain boy in this High School is the lucky one. DANIEL JONES Danny shines when it comes to girls, fmostly underclass girlsl, bright re- marks, and basketball. Don't ask him why he's off the varsity squad-it might embarrass him too much. Page tweizty-fozcr t'i'1- GEORGE B. KATZENBERGER Katzy's main points are Physics and girls. As a physicist he always has an answer or a guess. With women we don't know, but from all indications he must be a whiz. LEONA KELLY They call this colleen Irish and she well deserves the name. She's one of the brilliant? ones in our class and no wonder-look at all the time she spends in the library. But we've promised we wouldn't tell. DONNA L. KEHST A girl of great height and a good under- standing. She never has much to say but thinks plenty. What the big joke on her is will never be found out by a certain young man. MARGARET KLINE Peg should be an optimist for she re- ceived her share in size. She is an ex- pert on writing notes and enjoys herself as much as possible. We don't quite understand her dislike for Physics. ANNA LOUISE KURZ Anna may be noisy. but she is true at heart: that is. when it beats normally. She has been quite successful in kicking balls in soccer games and loves to play basketball. She can even be sincere, for half an hour at least. if you are willing to allow her to talk on any sub- ject she desires to. 6,1 a va-eg 9 5 A Q ' , . ,. . ,,K , f . .fgtvs v Nc ROBERT LEAS Wham! Another basket for the Smith- Hughes team. Bob sure can ring them. He's usually quiet in class but he some- times can pull prize boners. ESTELLA M. LEHMAN Estella's a nice little girl. Both the girls and boys think so-and that is, in- deed. something unusual. JOHN R. LIN DAMOOD A fine lookin' chap and a line reputation. Study? Oh, sometimes. It takes John to pull the brakes in Democracy class. Is Wilma a pretty name? Ask John. SANTE VICTOR MACCI This lad, with three others, tried to break into Uncle Sam's Navy by taking the entrance exams to Annapolis. Re- sults censured. Sorry. His accomplish- ments? Too numerous to tell. We'll let you in on one secret but, don't blow it. It's a trombone. MIRIAM ESTHER MADDOX Up-to-date? Well, I should say so. And other dates, too. But she can wash dishes. Miss Lindsey can tell you all about the fun after the Roman Banquet. We must not forget that Miriam is ath- letic, too. RAY MANIX Ray has long been the athletic manager of G. H. S. He is an actor of high calibre and a student of note. He has quite a winning way with the ladies and has been called by some The Beau Brummel of G. H. S. He serves in the capacity of assistant business manager of the staff. GEORGE H. MARKER Fuzzy . ThaL's his name. He's kinda wide this way and not so wide the other way. He's often seen joy-riding in his new sedan but none of the fair sex by his sideg do you see? JAMES L. MARKER Marker may he tall, so as to be quite out of sight but he answers your call at the Service with readiness. He never causes trouble for anyone around school but we have heard rumors with regard to the outside situation. BERNIECE MQCABE Berniece knows quite a few young men: among them is an especially nice boy, named Curt. Lately she has been rather absent-minded in class and we surmise that her mind is in far-off Detroit, the land of flivers. JEROME MCFARLAND If you hear a loud laugh in the movie. clon't be frightened. It's only Brother. His laughter and conceit are probably his outstanding features. We've heard he often indulges in ice-cream cones. Page tzvcizty-five ESTHER MEI ER When Esther entered the doors of G. H. S. a smile was on her face. We thought it would fade when times were hard, hut no! She is still wearing it today. LOTTIE MEYER There is music in the air! But it's just the G. H. S. Paderewskl, Lottie Meyer, at her trusty piano. Not only can she make music, but she can be depended upon to come out on top no matter what the job is. DALE JOSEPH MICHAEL Dale is another of our class who hails from the country. If asking questions after class helped one's standing. he should head the list. And we know a secret, too, but we'1l never tell. CHESTER BYRON MILLER Here's another G. H. S. hero on foot- ball field and gym Hoor. Ft. Jefferson is as outstanding as his chest. He is an undertaker's son, so don't insult him. JUANITA CORINNE MILLER Never in her life has Juanita been known to be frightened at the sight of a boy. Sometimes only one smile is necessary to capture the desired victim, but never more than two. Page tzvewzty-siar RICHARD H. MILLETTE Richard may be small but he is a prom- ising student in most every subject. Perhaps he will establish a new and quite famous newspaper ofhce sometime in the future. CORINNE MURPHY Now Red has a voice as sweet as a bi1'd's and for a kindergarten teacher she couIdn't be beat. She's our organ- ization editor and a fine one, too. Yes, she has red hair but here, the old saying fails. LESTER A. NEW LON Lester is a steady old chapfenot first in class but at least right on the leaders heels, always working and especially shining in his debates in Democracy. RAY NICHOLSON Nick's the strongest, friendliest, and most energetic person in town. His name is held in awe by all those who have played football with or against him. A future osteopath? NADINE NORTH Nadine is a silver-tongued orator of ex- ceptional fame. Our class is proud to claim such a girl. She's Miss Warvel's right hand and a good one at that. She came here last fall a stranger, but now, everyone knows Tommy. MARY O'DONNELL Brilliant? Well, I'll say she is. Smile? Sure she can-and does. Worried? Never. She doesn't need to worry about anything 'cause she knows it all. Mary copped the presidency of the Girls' League , too. MILDRED E. PATTERSON Here's to the great future oratorl Every- one pays her tribute as a speaker on the constitution. But then she also is a very brilliant student of English. Mil- dred goes about her work with a cheer- ful countenance and is a good sport at all times. MAYBLE POWELL Mayble is another brunette of charming ways. She is a good pal of everyone and scores high with several boys. No doubt she will find a successful future in an office of some large firm. for in- stance, The Woolworth Five and Ten. LELAND L. PLESSINGER This young fellow received the honor of being the first operator of the G. H. S. picture machine. His other hobbies are radio, roller skates, and jazz piano music. HERBERT J. RECK Reck has long been a name to be rever- ed in G. H. S. Recks have been our standbys in athletics forthe past several years, and Herb has done his share to keep up the old tradition. To add more to his fame. he's a prime soda- jerker. DONALD E. RIFFLE Here's a country lad who is short and snappy. Although he is usually attired in one of those Hashy green sweaters, when he dresses up he sure makes the girls take notice. In Physics laboratory he pulls enough boners for a boy twice his size. VIRGIL C. RIGGS More fame for the class of '27fRiggs and his trombone. Sometime soon you may ask a friend, Going to the movie tonight? No, I'm going to stay home and tune in on W. L. W. What's the occasion? Why haven't you heard? Riggs, the best trombone player around these parts, is broadcasting. JEAN RUST Another red headed Senior! One of the best sports of the class of '27. Red hair does not always denote a temper as Peggy is one of the sweetest tempered girls you ever knew. THELMA SAYLOR Here's an artist. Just take a look through the annual. Thelma's as quiet as a mouse and displays her thoughts, not in words, but in drawings. JUANITA SEAMAN She is a fine little maiden with high am- bitions. Juanita is quite studious and a dignified usher. There are rumors about that a certain curly headed lad is waiting for her. Page twenty-seven MARY OLIVE SEYBERT Which shall it be? Hello girl or some- bomly's stenog . She's good at both. She sure can smile but these are not be- stowed upon all of us poor humans. They are reserved for Nate . IIURIE SHAW This tall lad has two outstanding ambi- tions. The first is to be a proprietor of a drug store and the other is to play on a big league baseball team. Recently it has been noticed that he seems to be slightly infatuated with a certain girl who often wears a red dress. ROB ERT E. SINK His two years in G. H. S. have Won him much praise. Bob shines in class plays, studies and basketball. But this is not all, for he had the responsibility of being subscription manager, proving he is a very versatile young man. MAURICE EMERSON SMITH Chink? That's Maurice. Famous for his lectures on Immigration . Although humor editor of the annual he can't smile, for when he smiles, he can't see. Tough luck Smitty. MARY C. SNELL Mary Snell is one of the quietest and best natured girls in the class of '27, Some think it would be wise to change her name to Snail. Don't worry Mary- slow but sure. Page twenty-eiglzt MARY RUTH STRADER Tall and stately is this fairdame. Punc- tual? Of course. She wouldn't be be- hind a problem in Democracy for an ice cream soda. No, not even for a sundael HERMAN EUGENE STEWART Herman is noted for his diminuitive iig- ure and timid nature. His favorite in- door sport is bookkeeping. This lad surely shines when the women are absent. MABEL GERTRUDE STUCK Mabel is a jolly good girl but she gets tired sometimes in Democracy class and rests her little self by sleeping through the session. Boys, she is not fat but nice and plump. RUTH E. SUTER Black hair? You guessed it. And good lookin' too. But not boys for her. Won- der why? Well, I'll tell you-dad says, No. She's going to be our represen- tative at Wittenberg and a fine one, too. GERALD W. TEEGARDEN Teegy could pass for a doctor. bootlegger, or crook. Never mind what they think, you'll be a good druggist some day. He showed the public his great talent in dramatic work in our class play given last year. CHARLES F. THOMAS Charlie is a quiet young man with beau- tiful blonde hair. Go Slow is seldom his motto. He has been known to walk down Washington Avenue at noon for the pretended reason of health lhowever. there is an attractive Sophomo1'e girl who generally meets him on these health tripsj. CECILE V. TROUTWINE Blue eyes, Haxen hair, A's, dramatic ability,and Kenneth. Yes, Cecile has all of these. But we do not envy her any one because she is deserving of them all. HOWARD T. WARREN Perhaps you have guessed it already. It wouldn't be fair to tell you out-right why Howard is seen so often on Wash- ington Avenue just below the Panhandle. JUSTINA M. WASSON Justina is rather a cute kid, in the opin- ion of Jack. She leads a romantic life and everyone knows that she is quite capable at the old task of Hirting. Al- together she is an adorable, sweet. young thing. MARION B. WESTFALL Marion is the kind of boy who has never been misled. He stands pat. A grocery store is not too big for his trust. ag DORIS IRENE WILLIAMS Her nickname is Billie and she's al- ways balking upon various themes. She also faints in Bookkeeping once in a While to vary the monotony of the regu- lar routine of the class. WAYNE WILSON Wayne is just the right size for a good football man, and you know he wasn't slow in seeing his opportunity. He's the sort of boy who would remind some sentimental women of a knight of old. THELMA L. WOLFE A demure little maid is Thelma-but she has plenty of spunk. She has beautiful eyes and a smile lurks there-in. MYRA B. YOUNKER Myra is a very deinure, young lady of high ability in many things. She can calm the widest passions with her skill on the violin. She also has the serious task of being secretary on the annual staff. HELEN ZECHAR Small but mighty. So says the poet and we agree. Helen stands near the top of the list and is literary editor of the staff. Stature may count some but not in every case. ' Page fzvcizfy-11im' Senior Leroy I.. Alexander, 13 VV. Main St.. North Star.

However, my mind was perfectly clear and I could plainly hear the comments of the doctors. Dr. George Katzen- berger, our old family physician, had advised a consultation. The doctors Donald Riffle and Lester Newlon, were called in and their verdict was that the end for me would come within an hour. They advised my nurse, Miss Corrine Murphy, to notify the coroner, Maurice Smith, and the undertakers. Jack Cornell and Justina Wasson. What was that noise? I heard a rumble and I knew the end must be near. A bright light dazzled my eyes. I saw a flight of golden stairs which ended, in the distance, at the pearly gates. I started to climb, and finally reached the gates. At myiknock the gates swung open and I beheld Delbert Heller dressed in the robes of St. Peter. Upon my inquiry, he informed me that he was subbing for St. Peter during the latter's vacation. I asked for admission but Delbert told me that no one but St. Peter could admit me and that I must wait till he returned. He was to return that very after- noon. Delbert led me to the enormous waiting room where Harold Baker and Mary O'Donnell sat at the large table still studying their books. Cecile Troutwine was also there. She had gained admittance to Heaven but was waiting for her halo. I spoke softly to her and passed on to the window where I had noticed, on my entrance, a man painting the golden sunset. and the 1'OSy clouds. He turned at my approach. and I saw that it was Robert Hughes still at his old tricks. Thelma Saylor held the pallette for him and mixed the colors. As I watched him some small clouds floated by and seated on them were Lottie Meyer, Harriet Delaplane, Donna Kerst. and Marthalee Arnett, playing sweet rafrains on their harps. Behind these beautiful harpists there floated a great cloud with admiral Paul Hughes directing its course across the sky. Sante Macci, his assistant, was scrub- bing the decks of the golden boat-cloud. Somebody tapped my shoulder and there stood St. Peter. He led me down a long hall to a room where the book in which everybody's past record is kept lay. There was The Great Book on a diamond studded table and behind it stood Ruth Suter. In her pure white robes she guarded the valuable records. At her right and left we1'e two angels with white wings. They were Leroy Alexander and Robert Sink, her helpers. St. Peter said he would look up my past record but that I could go out to lunch while he was thus engaged. He called John Hankins, the bell-hop. and told him to direct me to the restaurant. Raymond Clark and James Marker met me as I entered and gave me special service as they were co-managers. While I dined they informed me that Judge Ray Manix was expected to put in his application for entrance within the next few days, as he had just sentenced Gerald Tee- garden, leader of the great dope ring of Greenville, to death. Judge lVIanix's life was in constant danger of assassination by the avengers. They also informed me that Chester Miller. dealer in stocks and bonds, and his sec- retary, Mayble Powell, had taken lunch there a few days ago while their Page fI1I'I'fjl-01111 records were being examined. As they had not returned it was supposed that they had not been accepted. Having completed my repast, I Went in search of St. Peter. As I passed down the hall I noticed a room to my left. Being inquis- itive I stopped to investigate. It was the room where haloes were fitted and the great milliners Jean Rust and Geraldine Duffy were engaged in fitting one on Helen Zechar, the world-famed author. I continued on my way and saw a window. Always having wondered what the world looked like from Heaven, I went over to the window and looked out. I was terribly surprised to sce Elma Drew leaping from cloud to cloud with Dale Michael in hot pursuit. Then I saw St. Peter coming toward me with a sad expression on his face. so I was not surprised when he told me that my past record was hardly good enough to gain admittance for me to Heaven. He called his right-hand men, Richard Brandon and Wayne Wilson, who had formerly been Wardens of the Ohio penitcntiary. and directed them to show me the way down. While being conducted to the elevator I passed a large gymnasium where Doris Williams and Anna Kurz were still being coached in basketball by the famous coach Myra Younker. We passed this room and came at last to the elevator. I hated to leave but I knew I must. As I entered I felt sad, but did not remain so long. Leona Kelly. the elevator girl, made my descent pleasant by her cute Irish brogue. I will not trouble my readers with accounts of my further adventures as they are too horrible to mention.

Minnich Secretary Charles Deeter Treasurer Blanch Olwine unior Class History Three years ago we entered upon our high school career. a very green and embarrassed group. A bit bewildered by the great change yet not willing to be submerged in the tide, we struggled through our first yea1'. We held two parties and a picnic and had a few athletic honors. However, since this was the first year in the new building. we, the Freshmen, made no more foolish blunders than our superior and sedate Seniors. By the beginning of our Sophomore year we were accustomed to the new mode of things and had learned how to conceal our Caesar ponies suc- cessfully. As in our Freshman year we held two parties and a picnic and were again favored with some few athletic honors. This year we are proud to say that there were many of our men on both the football and basketball teams. Such men as Tut , Casey . and Coppock have done especially good work. We are also well represented on the girls' basketball team by Beany , Marker , 'tReeader , and Hufnagle . We early elected our officers and have thus far enjoyed one party. We are raising high hopes of how we shall entertain the Seniors and Faculty at one of the best receptions ever given, though we are forced to admit that last year's was nearly perfect. Next year We shall replace the Seniors of '27 and may we rise to the standards set by that class and the preceding ones.

Still, the program from Columbus was as clear as that from any other station. An exceptionally loud roll ot' static made everything' else inaud- ible. When the din had partially subsided, a man was heard talking: The Sophomore class ot' Greenville High School is represented in every phase of school life. Athletics, music, public speaking, ai-tw-expoiioits ot' all these are found among the Sophomores. Statistics show that the Sophomores stand high in regard to scholarship. Although they have had no social gathering so far this year, there will he several parties toward the end ofthe school year. I believe that I am right when I say that it' their aims are accomplished, theirs will be the finest spirited, and the most deter- mined class which ever graduated from Greenville High School. A long round of applause 'followed this speech. Then the voice ot' the announcer was heard. This is Station WAIU broadcasting' the after- dinner speech at the annual state teachers' meeting. You have just heard an address by the eminent psychologist. I'rol'. H. L. Gr ..,... Another ear-splitting roll ot' static drowned out the voice of the announcer. The machine gun became a battery ot' tive-inch guns. Soon afterwards, unable to hear anything exce wt the incessant . l crackling, I turned oft' the radio. The storm outside raged on.

Story of the Willow-Pattern Plate On certain old china there is a painting in blue which is known as the willow pattern, and willow-pattern plate is perhaps the most famous china in the world. And it really comes from China, or so did the first plate, for the story is Chinese. This is the story: A beautiful Chinese girl, named Koong-Shee, fell in love with her father's secretary, Chang, who was a poor man. But the father of Koong- Shee Wanted her to marry a rich man, and because she would not give up Chang her father sent her away to a little house at the end of the garden. Outside Koong-Shee's window was a willow tree, and just beyond a fruit tree, and Koong-Shee sat all day watching it bloom. She was very lonely and unhappy, until one day Chang w1'ote and asked her to fly with him. Chang dared not to post the letter lest it should fall into the hands of Koong-Shee's father, but he found a cocoa-nut shell, fixed a sail to it, and putting his letter inside the shell, dropped it into the lake, and watched it sail across to where Koong-Shee sat watching. Koong-Shee read the letter and sent back her answer. She said she would go if her lover were brave enough to come and fetch her. Chang went boldly up to the little house and took her away. They had to cross the bridge to get out of the garden, and as they were half-way across Koong-Shee's father saw them, and hur- ried after them. Koong-Shee went first with her distaff, Chang followed carrying her jewel boX, and behind them ran the father with a whip. But the father did not catch them, and they escaped to a little house on the other side of the lake, where they lived happily. But the rich man who had wanted to marry Koong-Shee was so angry that he found out where she lived, and one day he set fire to the pretty little house. and Koong-Shee and Chang were killed.

To begin with, the pattern itself according to Hughes, is a Chinese nightmare, a dream of fantasy, perhaps not so clear as that, but rather as a vision in a dream. The lines of the pattern begin seemingly in infinitnde and to all appearances and as far as anyone is concerned end in the same place. Out of the melee of lines and figures of the original pattern, a beautiful legend appears, when one learns the key to extricate it. Novel and pretty as the legend is, it is a bit out of accord with the modernized pattern submitted by Hughes. In order to carry out an idea or an inspiration fas you will have it? Rupe reconstructed and miscon- strued the pattern to such an extent that it serves as a perfect retrospect of the football season of 1926. Now in Hughes' version of the legend the characters and localities are rather rad- ically changed. In the nearest possible sequence and proportion they are: fab Mandarin's Palace.. . G. H. S. feb The Lake . . Gole's Field fbi Mandarin .... .... . . Coach Salzman ffl The Island.. .. .... Harmon Field CCH The Lovers .. .... . . Team of '26 ig? Airplanes ....... ...Spirit of the Team fdb Bridge . ....,.. ., Broadway Bridge thi The Goal Posts ..... .. .. .. . .Ambitions Never Rcached Cij The Bus-A Good One THE LEGEND Not so long ago there was a football team that lived fmost of the tiinej in a large building universally known throughout that section of the country, as G. H. S. tai. Now there also lived in this same building a person known as Coach Salzman fbi. who jealously guarded his football hopes for the season of '26. The coach was very power- ful, and seemingly very cruel. Nightly he drove his football proteges ich across the bridge fdb and into either Cole's fel or Harmon lfb Field. Cole's at this time was a veritable lake, Harmon field which was comparatively dry could only be thought of in connection with automobiles. The coach did not always allow the boys to go to Harmon's, but forced them into Cole's field flakej where they tackled the dummy and spent their time trying to pull each other from the mud. As a result they we1'e either so tired from the evening jaunt to Harmon's or so Waterlogged from the sessions at Cole's that they did not succeed in getting over the goal line very often during the season. Thus you can see how the team of '26 expired in the mud and how the hopes for a successful season departed in the form of two airplanes tgi. The goal posts Chl still appear in the distance.

At this social affair the enter- tainment was an original picture show Worked out by the members them- selves.

Y Page sixty-mzc Soolalitas Latinas' Gaul is divided into three parts of which Greenville High School is the third part, which part is the most progressive and educated of all. Since Caesar was in need of one more legion, he, with the very able aid of Miss Lindsey, organized the legion Sodalitas Latinai' in 1922. Since that time it has steadily increased and grown in power until there are now one hundred twenty-five members in the legion who are favorite warriors of Caesar. This year of 1927, Miss Lindsey, feeling herself unable to conduct the strenuous campaigns and orations of Cicero, gave the members a chalice to elect their own officers. They were elected as follows: imperator tcom- manderj-Jack Cornell, legatus tsecond lieutenantj-Harold Baker, tri- bunus miles fmilitary tribunej-Lydabell Beanblossom, and quaestor tkeeper of military fundsl-Lottie Meyer. These officers were highly respected by those under them, and Caesar gave each one words of com- mendation. Many hard battles were fought in crossing the rivers, Verbs , squeez- ing through mountain passes, declensions , and fighting the dreaded en- emies, Hablative absolutes and ut clauses of purpose . Sometimes the im- perator grew anxious for some of his men, but the Latinists finally pulled through-some with honors, some with none. During a lull in the fight, the usual Roman Banquet was held on Janu- ary 24. Then in the brilliantly lighted banquet hall, filled with the pleasant odor of incense, the sturdy warriors gathered. Envoys from Le Cercle Francais were honored by an invitation to the feast. All sumptuously fared upon the best Roman delicacies and wines. Having eaten to their fill, they were entertained by those whom they had conquered. Exponents of Cicero also gave fragments of memorable orations, namely Ponies . During the year special attention was given to Latin songs and old Roman customs. Hail to Caesar's bravest and most trusted legion, Sodalitas Latina ! Mildred Patterson '27 P al 'g pkg?

Ada Bell Webb One of the important social groups in high school is the Home Eco- nomics Club. It is practically the baby of the Club family of G. H. S., but lives up to the old adage of last but not least . Now that Home Economics has become a regular it naturally follows that the Home economics Club should be more important. So far, our social functions have been rather limited this year, but We have heard rumors of coming parties. Some of the more industrious members oi' our club sold candy and sandwiches at the Xenia football game and made sandwiches. baked beans, pies, etc., for the basketball tournament. The Home Economics club is fast gaining a good reputation, and we wish all our future members the good times we have had. Garnet Nagel '29 'WZ' .Ji gy Page sixty-fl11'c'v La Cercle Francais We are a merry club of Americans alias Frenchmen. There is nothing in G. H. S. one-half so interesting as the French games that we play. We hold our meetings once a month and gain much knowledge besides amuse- ment from them. Our club has been organized ever since 1922 and has thrived under Miss Lindsey's guidance. This year our club is composed of about twenty members, many of whom are Seniors. Our officers are as follows: president-Mademoiselle Ruth Suter, vice-president-Monsieur Harold Baker, secretaire-Mademoiselle Elma Drew, and tresorier- Mademoiselle Corinne Murphy. W'e held our banquet in partnership with the Latin Club on January 24, 1927. Our club was too small to have a banquet alone. Now arouse yourselves, Ye Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors of the future! Do you want the French language to desert Old G. H. S. forever? Of course you don't! You will never be sorry for the French that you learn here for it is one of the most beautiful and useful of all languages. Now, if you're not careful French will be taken out of your curriculum. Don't forget! Take French! Eloise Murray '28 Page sixty-fozn' Agricultural Society In the fall of 1926 a new society was organized in the Greenville High School and is known as the Smith-Hughes Agricultural Society. Anyone taking the Smith-Hughes course is eligible to join this society. The officers of the society are as follows: President, Delbert Heller: Vice President, George Delaplaneg Secre- tary, Ralph Brewer: Executive Committee. Forest Delk, Roy Huffman, and William Delk. The constitution was drawn up by the following committee: George Delaplane, Delbert Heller. and John Thomas. The society held its first meeting in the High School gymnasium Thursday night, February 3, 1927. A short program was given and the remainder of the evening was spent playing basketball. Monthly meetings will be held during the school year. The Society is backing the basketball squad and should be loyally aided by the whole Greenville High School.

Although the primary rea- son for starting it was to develop a better appreciation of music, it was heartily endorsed by the coach because of the lung and arm exercise it afforded to the horn-blowers and drum-beaters respectively. After due experimenting it was discovered that the presence of the band at a football or basketball game seemed to inspire both the crowd and the players. Accordingly, this practice has been followed not only by the succeeding bands but by other schools as well. Recently, a few changes have come about. Several members have received considerable training in vocal and fistic argumentation. At the football games only a very few appeared, so that the inspiration imparted to the players and spectators was rather meager. Because no long march through the streets was required and fine seats were provided. a large band appeared at all of the home basketball games. Although the endeavors of the players of horns and drums were wasted on the boys' team, the effect upon the girls' was quite different. In spite of the fact that no broadcasting trip was taken this year and the efforts of Mr. Thomas. the director, were not rewarded with much success. it may be said that a very enjoyable and profitable season was had by all.

In this present age, when we find athletics the cause of the breaking of relations between colleges and when many high schools are going into the game with an unsportsmanlikc attitude, we find ourielves asking the question: are athletics really worthwhile? We may ask this question of many individuals and get varying opin- ions in response. Some will tell us that athletics are gaining too much prominence: that they infringe upcn a student's time which might be more profitably spent otherwise. Others will tell us that the value of athletics cannot be rated too highly. Many people have the mistaken idea that if facilities were available, college and high school students would, almost without exception, embrace the opportunity of taking exercise every day. The small boy, if given any kind of a chance, will play. He is born with the play instinct and he will find methods of playing if left to himself. Of course, supervised play is better for him than the other kind. but the point is that if he is given any chance at all he will amuse himself by some play activity. As we get older we become lazier and more and more find excuses for not taking the right amount of exercise. Here it is that well organized athletics prove their value. The student who goes into athletics seriously and is present at every practice-whether a star, mediocre, or poor player-gains something which will be of value to him in later life besides the physical development which will naturally result from the systematic exercise involved in practice. Playing the game calls for clear, quick thinking and clean cut decisions just as life will call for them in the future, and we know that a mind trained to clear constructive thinking proves one of life's greatest assets. Organized athletics foster the spirit of cooperation, a factor which is very necessary in our present highly organized life. The player is trained to think for the good of the whole team, to put self last rather than make a selfish spectacular play and gain honor for himself. Clean living, ability to grasp a situation clearly and to overcome ob- stacles, physical development, self control, moderation in all things, loyalty to your school and team, and courtesy to visitors-win or lose: these are a few of the many things that might well be mentioned as a 1'esult of indulg- ing in clean athleticsf Finally, athletics are of value because they foster a sportsmanlike spirit and develop the true sportsman who has the ability to brag a little. to show up well, to crow gently if in luck, to own up, to put up and shut up if beaten - qualities which are surely well learned in clean athletics.

For many seasons G. H. S. has been more or less successful in football, particularly during the season of '25 when our success was nothing short of meteoric. But this year the exact reverse seemed true in that we were invariably left holding the short ends of, in several instances, some very lopsided scores. I will not tire you with lengthy explanations in regard to each lost game although many a moral victory was won and many acts of sports- manship displayed upon the field of defeat. Now I presume nothing: I merely supply facts that I knew to exist. I do this in the hope that you may see a season of victory outcropping from a season of consistent, inglorious defeat. Now being sound of body, perfectly sane of mind. perfectly unprej- udiced, and judging from an impartial standpoint I shall proceed to judge them. To begin with I don't believe it fair to judge a team by the number of victories won. I know they tried their very hardest and did their very best. It is true they failed although they perhaps deserved to win. Now faith may be a medium for moving mountains, yet it failed to move our team a bit closer to the much desired and looked-for victory. The students' faith remained unshaken through the season as was mani- fested by their attendance at the games. Neither the players nor the students gave up hope of winning until the last shot of the final game sounded. Nine times this season our team fought on the gridiron: nine times they fell in hopeless, inglorious defeat. Each time they rallied and came back stronger than before, only to fall again. This fact instead of con- demning them is a point in their favor. for I believe that disgrace lies not in being knocked down, but rather in not getting up again . By two causes we met consistent defeat: fate and better teams. As to fate-man has no concern or influence over that: as to better teams-they were better than we or they would not have defeated us. I do not mean to belittle the victory of any team that opposed us, for each beat us fairly and only after a hard fought game. That we failed. there is no denying, but I contend that it was within reason that we did so. We put forth every effort, yet victory smiled not upon us tpersonally I am of the opinion that she laughed, if not aloud at least up her sleeveb. Now there is a great law. a principle under which all men live, whether consciously or unconsciously. This is the law of life, the law that deter- Pugc' svrclzfy-f1c'o 1nines the order of things. The law of sports is as the law of life, for is not every game as a life Z' or is not every life a game? This great law determines the law of averages: half may win and half must. lose. with chance to cause the inconsistency. This law is not to be found in rule-books, but it enters into every sportsman's decision when he gives his opinion of a team. Certain things in regard to this season should serve to place it on an equal basis with more successful seasons. We have in more ways than one displayed an excellent brand of sportsmanship which caused comments from our opponents. We have done this during a season of defeat. It is worthy of note. The students and citizens have displayed loyalty and faith for which I trust the future will repay. The passing of this season ought to bring about a lot of good in the coming season in the way of experience. The past defeats have taught their lessons: it is our present duty to support our defeated team, and we have placed our hopes for future football success in the hands of Captain Tubby Steck and his men.

N - M- J Basketball Although our Basketball team won only two games this year, they showed many admirable traits. Foremost among these was their wonderful perserverance. Although time and again they came out on the small end of the score, they always came up smiling with the determination to win the remaining games. Finally with the season almost over they defeated both Troy and Arcanum in thrilling games. The team's fight against great odds was noticeable at all times. No matter what the score, the team always fought to the final gun. Ray Nicholson '27 SQUAD 1926-27 Sink, Capt, Kerlin Nicholson Hankins Schmalenberger Gessler Alexander Cornell Tutwiler R.

ODI' TCHITI Sink, our captain and center, will always be remembered for his Won- derful coolness while under fire and his ability to come through with a basket at the critical moment. Nick, as usual, was Johnny-on-the-spot when it came to playing guard. Together with Tut, he formed an obstacle which even the most able opponent found difficult to surmount. Schmalenberger, Alex's running mate, is one of our surest shots, If another had a better chance at the basket he passed the ball but when necessary he could sure hoop them. Alexander, one of the speediest forwards of these parts, shined at right forward. He was responsible for a great many of our points. Time and again our opponents rushed the ball down the floor only to be met by our invulnerable guard, Tutwiler, who invariably gained the ball and saved the day. Although Chet did not make the first team he helped to fill up a hole, when one of the regulars was hurt, in great shape. Kerlin was small for a forward. but he made up for this by his speed and fight. Always accurate in his shots and passes. Jenkinson, another of the second team, sure played good basketball, but due to his lack of experience did not make the first team: next year he should show good form. Gessler showed by his fight and dependability that with another year of experience to help him he would make a fine guard. Cornell was made by nature for a center and although not on the fi1'st team he showed great promises. If this were not his last year We would predict great things for him. Big and mighty! Roger helped Bob out at center whenever necessary in fine style. He is one of our best prospects for next year, Boli although only a Freshman showed by his playing that he is des- tined to become one of Greenville's best guards in the future. Henry, Weaver, and Whitesel are three of the second team who deserve special mention although they did not get in a single game they gave all they had to make the first team a success. That is real school spirit. Page sezwizfy-si.m' Basketball Schedule '26-'27 University of Dayton Preps at Dayton 14--39 in favor of Dayton. Bradford at Greenville 7-30 in favor of Bradford.

For the first time since the renewal of girls' basketball our Varsity made a hundred percent record. The co-operation of the entire squad is worthy of mention an-Cl the playing of each individual was a fitting response to the coaching of Miss Ceres Williams and the leadership of their captain, Beanie. together with the backing of the entire school. The season opened Dec. 17, when the Alumni team, composed of Var- sity girls of 1925-26 were defeated by a score of 29-16. Jan. 7 added another victory, the total score against New Madison Hi being 32-12. The following' night the trip to Covington proved victorious by 36-15. Miamisburg came to Greenville on Jan. 17, fully expecting' to take Page svrelzfy-ciglzt home a Winning score but they were disappointed. For when the game was over the score stood 30-10 Greenville. The undefeated Lewisburg team met ours on Feb. 28, but even their utmost effort would not defeat our Varsity and the final score was 28-23. The game scheduled for Feb. 19, was looked forward to by every basketball enthusiast. For Arcanum came expecting once more to carry home our Varsity scalpsg but they had reckoned wrong, for due to the speed and accuracy of our team another victory, 27-20, was added to our list. The season closed with a farcical game between the Alumni and the Varsity in which boys' rules were used. rxx I 5-K M sg. , I 1 - , A f QQ?

Page eighty one Track Although '26 was not our most brilliant season on the track and field, we were well represented in all the district meets, no dual meets having been scheduled. The team participated in three meets: a triangular meet at Troy, the Western Ohio meet at Piqua, and the Southwestern Ohio meet at Miami University. Although we did not finish first, we gave them a good race in each event. Prospects for the '27 team are about the average, in some events we have good material and in others we will have to develop new men, but Greenville will sure live up to its name and be there fighting. Men awarded letters in track last year were: Batten, Wil- liams, Nicholson, Engelken, Horn, Horner, Katzenbarger, Star, Braley. Of these we have only Nicholson, Horner, and Katzen- barger in school this year as a nucleus for the '27 team.

OCTOBER 45 Three cheers for the month of falling leaves TW and nippv nights! The events of this auspicious month are divided into two parts. The first of ,H W these may be called class activities, and the sec- V ond, in the language of the sport world, is called CTX 1: foothall. R Of the parties, etc., the Seniors' topped them all-fun-velling-eats-and half the faculty. Several calamities made their appearance at the foothall games. Sorrv to report five defeatsg as a freshman remarked, XVe had the muddiest end of the field. During the Troy massacre Cap Nicholson received a kick on the shin and for eight weeks afterwards used crutches as part of his foothall equipment. Some students were presented with a hig set-hack when the first grade cards made their appearance, as was testified hv the sad looks and despondent thoughts. X5 X Um ries rf E Q I' J mv NOVEMBER Pumpkin pie, a goat chase, and Education- vu qvaa A , , kffjggjx al VVeek-these were features in the third month of the school vear. On top of that we were treated to a one day vacation when the teachers went to school at Columbus one Fridav. During the ahove mentioned Educational Xlleek we enjoyed several kinds of entertainments, both comic and instructive. This Page ciylz fy-s1'.r list included two lawyers, a preacher, and several members of the Civics, Science, and English departments. The football team met with its usual had luck and succeeded in getting tramped on only four times instead of five as was the case the previous month. Oh! Boy! And the Annual Staff was elected. Some were glad and some were sad, but on the whole everybody was satisfied except those chosen. DECEMBER WW' X his Y Everybody froze.

VVhen that scientist started to sling that cool, smoking yi' : W liquid, everyone deposited himself beneath the -W I l warm folds of his coat or sweater collar. E T Everyone loves some kind of music. Those who enjoy classical music and those who do not were all enter- tained one morning. The occasion was notable for the appearance of Prof. Thomas' new reed organ. The riddles squeaked, the bass viol zummed, and the program was on. So sweet and harmonious were the strains that oozed forth that several of the student body were lulla- byed to peaceful slumber. Did you ever see a real doll show? XVe did. The girls' organ- ization attempted, and successfully accomplished, a high class doll show for the benefit of all who paid admission. Plenty to eat and lots of real fun. Come again. AC: JANUARY This is the time to make resolutions but before the 3lst we usually find out that it is much easier to break T them. Yes, the faculty were there and so were the U eats. And it all happened at the big Latin Club ban- 'ii .typ quet. For real fun and a good time these parties put on by Miss Lindsey and her proteges cannot be beaten. X.f , it n-ts-.N N tt, , .sa aw- we . At one of the very numerous Chapels it seemed that the general opinion was prevalent that everybody want- ed to sing.

YVe couldn't lose all the basketball games so the team decided to win a couple which they did and then stopped, for the students were becoming thrilled and excited beyond reason and control. The old ground-hog made his usual appearance on the Ind and since old Sol was shining brightly couldn't help but see his shadow. XVe don't believe in signs, for we've had fair weather ever since. Another much beloved chapel in the form of an accordion en- tertainment drew the majority from their recitations, only those in the assemblies remaining to delve in the musty volumes. MARCH qos .

But a day of reckoning always comes and so it did in this case. Mr. Bailey issued the proclamation that on the first period on Tuesday an exten- sive campaign against rubbish would be held. lt was. There is one event of the year that is always looked forward to by the whole student body, faculty, and town. You've guessed it, it's Booster Day. :Xn introductory speech, five vaudeville acts, and music by the hottest orchestra that was ever heard made up the con- tents of program. Five Seniors were exceedingly ambitious. and, having nothing else to do, composed speeches on the Constitution. The event was made more conspicuous by the fact that no admission was charged. Thomas' orchestra opened the program and the Brass Quartet sent the crowd away. The speaking was fine and every one of the ora- tors got a prize. Being girls, girls cannot have a stag party. But they can have a party just the same so the G girls decided a banquet would be just the thing. lt went over big, we guess. Page czigflfy-efglzf APRIL The weather always warms up in April- ' if that matters any. And it's always supposed 4,7-'Y 1 to rain whether it does or not. April this M year was very similar to many preceding 16' ,.l,. H' Aprils. In N126 the qlunior Class presented a play for the first timein the history of G. H. S. The effect was so pronounced that this year's class decided to do the same thing. After a run of two nights the presentation was acclaimed a success hy all who were lucky enough to be present. The climax of athletic endeavors for the year has usually been in the form of a banquet. All of the old letter men were there, the the new letter-wearers couldn't be kept away, and a special program was arranged in which the new members were made to entertain. Following the eats and entertainment, came the initiation. No one was killed but some had their consciences hurt. The -lunior-Senior reception was the high-light of the social events of the year. A better time could not have been had underany circumstances. Nobody enjoyed it more than the faculty and the guests. Some of the faculty showed the students how to partake of refreshments and have a good time. One of the big problems of the day is forest preservation. It is the purpose of every community to heautify its cities and country side by the means of trees and shrubs. These factors were brought out on Arbor Day, which was observed in the public schools throughout the country. MAY A A U I Sea 5 hlay is the time of May Apples.

Announcements, the liaccalaureate Service, and Commencement Day all fall in order until the much cherished sheep-skin', is placed in the outstreched hands of the anxious and waiting student. It is then that the welfare of old G. H. S. is put in the trust of the next year's graduating class. Page cfyjllfgf-llizzf The Building of the Ship ---if fob! Qi' ll work 6rm'h--- The room was dingy. The light was low. In one corner lay a pile of lumber. In the opposite corner I sat. One side of me was adorned with a vise. Over me hung a rack of tools. The collection included a hammer, a saw, a plane, a brace, and three or four bits. Into the room came a lad of probably thirteen or fourteen years of age. He turned on the light which hung over me. He gave a glance at his tools, then at a pile of lumber lying in one corner. Carefully he selected a piece and then extracted a knife from his pocket. Slowly. ever so slowly, he began to Whittle the hull. Stradavarius with all his art could not have taken more care. Reluctantly it began to take form. First the point at the hull showed signs of being a masterpiece. Gradually, with the aid of the plane, it rounded into shape. The dusk outside began to deepen into darkness. The hull was com- pleted, and work had begun on the decks. What a ship it was turning out to be! Already the master could see it sailing the Seven Seas . Pirates, merchants, and adventurers. He could see them all upon the decks. The hammer and saw and the other tools had already been called into use. The rough work on his ship was over. Now his technique was sum- moned to the fore. He almost despaired for there was the mast, railing, and painting yet to be done. Again his knife came from his pocket. A long piece of wood was transformed into a mast. and smaller pieces into the rail. He now set about the task of assembling all these parts. My, how wonderful and true to life it looked! From a paint can came a few brushfuls of paint. How much better it looked now. From the pantry cupboard he got the string. He fitted the rigging up as on a real ship. Now completion was drawing nigh. It was well, for more than half an hour ago his mother had summoned him to his bed. But still he lingered, putting a touch here and a touch there. At last he called it finished. He set the boat down on me, turned out the light, and I could hear his weary footsteps treading the stairs to his bed. Where he took the boat I do not know. The only clue I have to what it was for is: once when he cut his finger, I heard him say, Miss Bier will pay for this. Who Miss Bier is, I do not know. Thus my tale endeth. Maurice Smith '27. Page Hillffjj Dream Ships HE vogue for possessing' a ship model and the thought of bringing out the ingenuity and originality of a school boy or girl in making something' worth-while, not only dec- orative but something one could have and look back to with pride in years to come, prompted the request made in the G. H. S. art department for all the pupils in this depart- ment to construct a ship model. Much latitude was given -it mattered not what kind of a ship or what material was used. Good examples from magazines-famous illustrations from ship model collectors were shown to the classes with the daylight pro- jector. The library was searched: pictures and descriptions of boats of all kinds were studied and the ships came in by the dozens-some carved from a small cake of White soap, others made of timber large enough to sail on the water. And again there were some with their sails of parchment in glorious colors. Finally, at the request of the superintendent of schools, who became interested in this varied collection, they were anchored in a show-window on Broadway where, for several weeks, the public could share the joy and the passer-by might, in his rush to work, stop long enough to admire this unique art problem. For pictorial quality and as an inspiration for day dreaming before the open fire, the ship model as an over-mantel stands supreme. Pogo nilzefy-ozze The Junior-Senior Prom 1 E. the Seniors of the class of '27, are right- fully proud of the Prom which we gave to the out- TQ- .ffilg fgnig ff going class of '26. This was made possible by the T332 I' 2 is Junior Class Play which was given under the able i-'f 5 jf-lx.. direction of Miss Murphy. The Junior-Senior Re- 'f .'5c if ',,' ception is one event looked forward to by every . - ' student from the time he enters high school until 3 '. of If he is permitted to attend one. 7 For almost two weeks before the date set for 'slf ' 5' i-sr' . i r the Prom. lanterns and flowers were being made 7' U , xsil to festoon the ballroom. Lanterns, eight feet in ff-Illia height and four feet in diameter, were made of muslin, dyed all colors of the rainbow, and hung from the trees on the campus to dry. To make them more attractive, large cartoons were painted on them and they were finished at the end with huge black tassels. They were then suspended from the beams in the gymnasium. Apple blossoms were made of pink and white tissue paper and fastened on boughs. gathered from some one's woods and stripped of their foliage. We tried to rival mother nature in making these boughs look life-like. They were carried from the art room to the spacious gym where they were entwined upon the railing of the balcony the night before the reception. Chairs and tables were arranged tastefully around the sides of the room so that those who did not care to dance could play games. In each end of the gym were arranged cozy corners for the comfort of our patrons. patronesses, and the faculty and wives. They were parti- tioned from the rest of the ball-room by lattice work decorated with apple blossoms. Palms and ferns formed a pleasing background. At last all was 1'eady for the ball with the exception of polishing the floors. This was done by several energetic Juniors under the supervision of Miss Miller and Miss Murphy. Refreshments were served at all times, and the punch bowl seemed to be the center of attraction. The orchestra was that of Booster Day fame and their selections were appreciated by those who did not dance as well as by the dancers. During the evening we were entertained by several members of our class. First was Loretta Leonard in a negro mammy act in which she played a banjo and sang several melodies. Delbert Heller and Leroy Alex- ander gave a dialogue entitled lVater on the Knee . Hartwell Braley with Norbert Pointner gave an exhibition of the Charleston which made them famous. Toward the close of the evening, Mr. Miller. a local photographer, took several flash-light views of the scene. The success of our reception made up for all the time and labor spent on it. We hope that the receptions to come may be as successful as the one given by the class of '27 to the class of '26.

We are especially interested in that house where , 4 lived Franz Dansel, for it was there that the principal char- l HIS story opens in 1780, in the little German village of acter of this story was created. Franz Dansel was a violin maker of the old German school. Though he has never become really famous, some of his works are worthy of great praise. The main reason for his obscurity is the fact that so few of his models have come to light. Vlfithout a doubt, he made many violins, for much practice is necessary to obtain the skill which some of his models show. At the time when our story opens, Dansel was busily engaged in making a violin. A one-piece back of spruce is unique even in the blase art of violin making: nevertheless, that is what he used. The top, of the same wood. had a bad defect in the form of a catch in the wood, crossing the grain. This was to cause trouble later, thousands of miles away. Some time in 1780, Dansel finished that model. He inserted his customary label: FR. DANSEL fSpothaJ Waldsagsensis 1780 We do not know much about the first century of the life of this Violin. However, we do know that during this time it was brought from Europe to America, and found its way to Kentucky. We also know that sometime in this period the neck was lengthened, as the necks of all the violins made before that time were lengthened, in accordance with the change in the length of violins. Next we find the violin in Kentucky, sometime between 1890 and 1895. How and when it got there, we do not know. We find that Ed Shafer, an old German fiddler, had it in his possession at that time. Popular as a country fiddler all over northern Kentucky, Shafer played for many barn dances at many towns. Among these towns was Walton, a village of a few hundred people. And living in Walton, a frequent attendant of Ed Shafer's dances, was . . . my father. We next learn that, in 1913, Ed Shafer repaired a crack in the top of the violin, caused by the catch in the wood. On the inside of the top, he wrote, with pencil, the following: The river is 52 feet, and still rising. Ed Shafer, Mar. 10, 1913. The Ohio River was meant, as he lived close to that river. Two days after, the Dayton flood of 1913 reached its height. Ed Shafer died in the flu epidemic of 1918, leaving a fishing tackle store, in Covington, Kentucky, and a few violins, to his widow. She bought Page 'I1f71E'lL1.j-f0IH'
