Nor bird nor flow'r did light the gloom- NVill ye then, say that this was death! Ah no! Soon came a pregnant dawn! A robinls note-a. brush of wing, And Lo! The shrouding snow has gone! The trees are whisp'ring thoughts of spring. And one of us no more will see Blue April Skies, red rose of juneg Nor all the leaves which are to be The gold of autumn afternoon. But gaze, where, in the crimson west, The sun in Kingly splendor-dies? Say not--he dies! At God's behest He speeds the morn to other skies. Sun, time and tide obey His will, VVho hung the silver stars in spaceg And-here or there-we serve Him still. Each in divinely destined place. Weep not, though one was called to go, VVho man,s estate had scarcely won. To him-beyond all we can know- Victorious life has just begun. SELKIRK BURGESS Fifteen .fab is-D -L ,..

The Class of '27 Our class began in twenty-three, The largest class from old G. C., Vlfe had one hundred eighty-three, And green as green could be, As years went by. we too grew smart, We taught the freshies high praised art, But we recalled the days gone by VVhen every effort made us sigh. VV'ith john to guide our ship along, Welre bound to finish good and strong, Heill bring us safely to the shore, All weighted down with wisdomis lore. Our chapel singing is quite a treat, Miss Burgess says we can't be beat, VVC sing the same songs o'er and o'er And as for books, we need no more. Gur teacher's lessons weren't so long, But if perchance we got them wrong, Their looks and actions were not kind, And a cooler sentence we would find. Now we're finished, regrets ring true. To leave our tasks and dear friends too. May each one prove that he can do. The lessons taught the four years through. Thirty Seven G. l W A ' ., --li . . y JT-M V 'U ,.

Fifty Years F rom Graduation., Dear school-house now I see again And sadden with the view, And still as memory crowds my brain There's pleasure in it too. Now fifty years have passed away Since here I bid farewell To school-books. and the teachers And class-mates loved so well. There many were, but few remain Of old familiar things, But seeing them, to mind again The lost and absent brings. The friends I left that parting day How changed as time has sped! Young manhood grown, to manhood g And half of all are dead. But I hear the old survivors tell How naught from death could save Fill every sound appears a knell And every spot a grave.

True Sportsmanship A tow-headed, blue-eyed boy is sitting in his high-chair. His face al! smiles, one chubby little hand clutching a spoon and the other a rattle, given him for his amusement. His little sister is sitting on the floor playing with her bright red ball. The baby boy plays with his spoon and rattle for awhile, then seeing sister's ball, he drops his own playthings and putting out his tiny hands reaches for the ball. To keep him happy sister finally gives him her ball and she runs to get something else to play with. Wheii baby brother sees she has something else, he wants it too. His motto, like that of all young children, is, Give Me, Me, Me, Me, are his most common words. The scene changes. More than a score of years has passed. It is four o'clock in the afternoon and a very important game is on. The grand-stands are filled. It is the last inning. This inning will decide Whether the New York Giants will or will not be the World's Champions. The teamis weakest batter is the first one up. The outlook is gloomy. The batter steps up and hits a grounder, which puts him on first base. Wit.h a nervous hand the next batter, a big, blue-eyed handsome fellow, selects his bat and steps to the plate. With one ball and one strike against him he bunts the ball. He is put out himself but by his sacrifice his colleague is advanced to second base. The next batter is a strong hitter and he hits a fast grounder over second base to the outfield, letting the man on second in to score. The next two men fan out. The sacrificing of the one man has won the game. The NVorld's Cham- pionship is won for the New York Giants. Can you imagine the chubby baby, whose cry was Me Me and the big handsome base ball player who made the sacrifice as being the same person? They are, we know the man by the name of Christy Mathewson. But what a change had come over him! In the years between baby- hood and manhood, instead of continuing to allow himself to be controlled by the childish habit of grasping and getting for himself, he gradually learned by the childish habit of grasping and getting fir himself, he gradually, learned to think of others. The Me Me of a childhood came to be replaced by the Mothers first of a real manhood. The path he trod was not easy for he took the rough places as a part of his lifels pathway. But in so doing he acquired the spirit of true sportsmanship. Christy Mathewson has passed into the world beyond, but his fine spirit of sportsmanship still lives on in this world. It speaks to us today. In our sports let us not fail to heed that voice, for if heeded it will mean cleaner and more wholesome sports. But it will mean much more than that. If we succeed in becoming good sportsmen in athletics we have gone far towards becoming good sportsmen in life's more serious games. The opportunity of making one of life's greatest choices presents itself to you and me-the choice of what shall be our attitude in the various rela- tiohships of life-whether it be in our sports, in our life work, in our family life or in our religious life. Shall it be the attitude of Mathewson, the baby crying Me Me My,', Mine or shall it be that of Mathewson, the true sportsman, making the sacrifice hit? Evelyn Hoffman Forty Four -fl-'D Fri- ?, ' f5THEIlNE,liNQIa2,, e . ,N Q,- To graduate, or not to graduate, that is the question: Whether 'tis better in the end to suffer The outlines and' problems of outrageous lessons, Or to start work amongst a sea of lessons, And by learning, end them? To pass: to flunkg No moreg and by passing to say we end The low marks and the thousand recitations That students are heirs to, 'tis a possibility Devoutly to be wished. To pass? to fail? To fail, another year, ay, there's the rubg For in that extra year what assignments may come When schoolmates have passed into the world, Must give us pause: t,here's the thought That makes so many students work, For who would bear another year of labor, The time in the cooler, the teachers' tests, oration in chapel, the room literary, e experiments in lab., and the red-marks That patient dunces of a high school take, When he himself might his exit make By having his lessons.

That we wondered mid the bowers Of, I can't recall the flowers Tho, I think they smelled a lot like new mown hay.

He is dead,,unfortunately, and an Englishman publishes a book foolishly criticizing Rainey's slaughter of game. The game that Paul Rainey slaught- ered, ought to be slaughtered, lions, leop- ards, panthers and other animals, of which he killed many, sufficiently savage to provide the danger that Paul Rainey thoroughly enjoyed. Every time Rainey killed one of those savage beasts he protected the lives of natives and their children, saved live- stock, preserved harmless deer and other gentle animals innumerable. Rainey, an efficient killer of dangerous, savage animals, believed in getting rid of them. Others would like to nurse them along to kill them, a few at a time, for amusement. If, in the meanwhile they ate a few natives, why, there would al- ways be plenty of natives.-London Times.

Fifty Three ' . - .ef .Iunior Class History HETINE ln September, 1924, a class of one hundred and sixty-nine Freshmen entered, for the time, the spacious halls of Grove City High School. There may have been brighter and better looking classes of Freshmen but We, the class of '28 doubt it. Life was made miserable for us the first few weeks by the threats of our teachers and the lordly Sophomores who spent their time bullying us. The remainder of our first year passed quickly and in june We left G. C. H. S. with one year in High School career gone. Again we enter G. C. H. S., but this time one step higher for we are Sophomores and it is our turn to have the lowly Freshmen. This was done to our great enjoyment. VVQ were represented on both the football and basketball teams and also furnished excellent material for the literary teams. This time was marked by a feeling of worldly elation, which caused the greater part of the male contingent to attempt the smoking of cigars and the discussion of the subject beyond our depth. The girls were also effected in shortening skirts and starting a never ending precedure of primping. CSaid habit still staying with.j Only four cases of brain fever were reported as following the exams and so another year flew by. Nineteen hundred and twenty-six and hardly a soul who is yet alive to remember-etc, etc. O time! O customs! Nize Baby have another zip oi knowledge, as Milt Gross says, Wotta Tuff time we're havin'. This Junior year has caused the asylums a lotta trouble. Five first team football men, gads of them on the basketball team, who says the class of '28 has noi' do11e their bit? Our Saran Bernhardts and Lionel Barrymores represented us in a class play at Christmas time, which was a WOW. And now all the minds are turned to the time when we will make our debut at that elite gathering where only the upper classmen are represented--- THE JUN1oR-sEN1oR BANQUET To Our Teachers Listen, my friends, and give a thought To the numerous things four years have wrought, Of the wonderful things that have come to pass Since we entered High as the Freshman class We have struggled together under the rule Cf Grove City's teachers with hearts so cruel. We have labored together with a common Wrong, With blinding marks, and lessons long. But this, my friends, I must. confess Is the very point I'd like to stressg For tyrannical rule has had its sway, And, amicably now, we turn to say A Hearty Good Wish for all our mates Who'll lead their lives with various fates.

Sixty Three y ask 'WVINNIE L. INEISNUIQ. The Value of a High School Education W'ithout a doubt a High School education helps one to success in busi- ness. Certainly a boy or girl may become successful without such an educa- tion, but they are handicapped. High school training provides discipline for the mind that enables one to stick to tedious, routine tasks until the end is gained. The same training that keeps a high school pupil at difficult problems in Algebra or Geometry until they are solved will help him in solving business problems. The habit formed in the last four years of school of restraining the impulse to throw everything to the winds and go out for a good time will help the high school graduate greatly in the world of business. Again, the high school trains the mind to analyze problems, to seek causes and tolook on both sides of a question. Many men have failed in business because they failed to analyze their affairs. They lacked the ability, or the turn of mind, that would have enabled them to see the cause of loss, or to look ahead and foresee the results of action. Lastly, a high school education broadens the mind. The high school students receive an inkling of community relationships and the interdependence of citizens upon each other. Their minds are more alert and they can more readily' perceive that business is not a money making scheme, a get-rich-quick proposition of profits only, but a system of service to the community. O. L. GILMORE I think a high school education is of vital importance to a boy who expects to engage in the real estate or insurance business. In the first place he needs all the commercial education he can acquire and I hardly think he can get enough commercial work without attending college or a commercial school in addition to his high school education, unless he is fortunate enough to get some actual experience in some well regulated office. He needs mathematics and bookkeeping, so that he will know how to take care of his business after he gets it. He needs English so that he can look after his correspondence and advertising, as well as being able to meet and converse with people in the proper manner. All of these things are more necessary to the boy who is going to take the place of our present business man, as the majority of his competitors will have all of these qualifications. The large insurance and real estate com- panies now require their employees to be well equipped as far as education is concerned and many insurance companies will not employ any one for important positions unless they have a college diploma. This is true especi- ally of the large life companies. I believe, however, that a boy who is thorough in all of the branches in the high school course would be able to engage successfully in the real estate or insurance business after he acquires the necessary experience.

' Wlhile in School we wonder why the School Board wants us to study certain subjects that would seem to have no value in our future lives. These subjects develop the mind, teach' us to concentrate, train us to memorize, and in many little ways develop the student's ability to learn. This ability to learn, together with the practical instruction received in a high school course, is advantageous in modern industry. Manufacturing today with highly complicated machines and working from drawings that must be clearly understood, give an advantage to the mind- that is able to study and understand. The graduate, after the first exhilaration of graduation, must usually realize that his education is not a cure alli' for every snare in business, but is an exceedingly advantageous start for a practical knowledge and more study. H. M. CARRUTHERS W'hile the requirements of the several states in the Union are perhaps all different, it is recognized everywhere that the right to practice law is not a natural or constitutional right, but is a privilege or franchise, subject to control and is limited to persons with special qualifications definitely laid down. The right to practice law cannot be assigned or inherited, but must be earned by hard study and good conduct. In Pennsylvania before a person can ever register as a suit at law, he must satisfy the State Board of Law Examiners that he is of good moral character and shall have received an academic degree from some College or University approved for that purpose by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania or shall have passed a preliminary examination upon the following subjects. L English, Language and Literature. Outlines of Universal History History of England. History of the United States. Arithmetic, Algebra through quadradics. Plane Geometry. Modern Geography First four books of Caesar's Commentary. First six books of Virgil's Aeneid. First four orations of Cicero against Catiline. You can easily see, therefore, that it is virtually impossible for one to register flet alone to later be admitted to the Barb as a law student without having taken and successfully completed a Higlf School course. In several of the leading law schools of the country today one must be a College graduate to enter the law school. lt is not only of advantage to a lawyer to have been a High School student and graduate, it is absolutely essential.

XN'ith only six lettermen left, the squad faced a hard program. After weeks of hard practicing Coach Hartman selected the team which was to carry the Gold and VVhite on the Gridiron. The team made exceptionally good showing in the schedule of eight games. We were all set for the opening game with New Ytiilmington at home. Our opponents put up a stiff battle, yet they lost a 7-0 verdict to Grove City. The second game was with New Bethlehem. away Grove City proved to be the stronger and won 12-6. - Our next game was on foreign soil with New. Castle proved disasterous, although out-weighted, Grove City was not out-fought, but lost 32-0. The Gold and XN'hite showed much improvement in the art of football with Sharpsville. annexing l2 first downs to Sharpsville 4. Yet old man luck came along and greeted our opponents with a break that netted them a touchdowng the game ending with Grove City on short end 6-0. Not discouraged the following week the team journeyed to Meadville and with only a few minutes to play Grove City showed her real football ability by marching 60 yards in four plays to net a touchdown and turned off defeat. The game ending 6 all. The schedule now being half completed with two victories, two losses and a tie, we were ready for the big game of the season-SHARON. A large crowd of Grove City's folks motored to the Valley to see their favorites in action against the large Orange and Black team. Battling against odds, fighting like demons. Hall, Paterson, Negri, tearing off large gains around the end, Keck bucking the line. Grove City netted l2 downs to Sharon's 5. Again fate was against the Gold and Vllhite warriors losing 7-2. Due credit must be given to tlwe line for stopping Sharon's smashing line bucks. time after time. f Un Armstice Day the strong Mars team was the attraction at home. The Mar's team flashed a whirling running attack which our boys were unable to solve, the game ended Mars 18, Grove City 6. The last game of the season with Vllest Middlesex was considered im- portant. The game ending in our favor. The Mill town boys put up a' good light, but were overcome by our machine. This ended the football season of l926 with a 34 to 0 victory. Although G. C. H. S. did not win the majority of the games, she had a fighting team of which to be proud and who kept up the fine spirit that G. C. is noted for in athletics whether they win or lose. NVe sincerely hope that the team of 1927 will continue to carry on the old G. C. spirit--GROVE CITY NEVER GIVES UP. The men which will be lost to team of 1927 are: Hoffman, Richards, Keck, Patterson, Negri. Hall. Milner, Bohlander. P Come on team of '27 do your stuff. joe VV.

A group of fantastically garbed boys lay on the ground watching the action of another group of huge, red-clad ,figures going through a few snappy football plays. Every now and then o11e of the Crimson Jerseyed players looks over and openly sneers. Those boys were the football cream of Grove City High School and were positively the most ill-clad, non- descript bunch that the bone-crunching Beaver Falls team had ever conde- scended to play. In the motly throng were eight different colored jerseys and from the necks of those most fortunate could be seen the edges of their home-made shoulder pads-adapted from cast-off mattress-es. Not a head' gear in the crowd and for the most part rough broghans armed with wooden cleats consisted their footwear. The referee blows his whistle. Line up. Beaver Falls and Grove City. 1The last thing the boys did was to give their few valuables and their small amount of money, about sixty-five dollars in all, to their unofficial trainer, who took the place of a coach. He got excited later and bet it all on them.j The kick off. Beaver Fall's ball. They score a touchdown in three plays. The game becomes a' sullen, stubborn, defensive one for the smaller team tGrove Cityj who are out weighed twenty pounds to the man. A few minutes to go to the half. Grove City makes a large gain and taking heart at this unexpected gain also plunge a touchdown over. They fail to score their kick-goal and the score stands 6-5, Beaver Falls. Half is up. Neither teams have as yet scored Cduring the last half? and now there are only two and a half minutes to play with the ball on Grove City's fifty yard line and last down. The G. C. quarter realizes his team's inability to gain the required yardage through the line and also that if he is forced to kick, Beaver Falls will prevent any further scoring. Nevertheless, he calls back the right end to do the punting. As this fellow passes one of the halves he says, sotto-voice, I'll pas yeh the ball and you run for a touchdown. The ball is snapped. The punter delays until his half is down about ten yards then throwing his arm back. he hurls a pass to the half who races for a touchdown. The game ends shortly after this and Grove City High School has accomplished the impossible. They beat Beaver Falls 11-6, and got a going over for doing it when they reached home, as this was a time when football was considered and really was a rough sport: not fit to be played by high school boys.

Splendid material was on hand to mould a first-class team despite the loss of men from the 1925 squad. Among the forty men that reported the first night were Capt. Murray, Hall and Faull, were the three veteran men around whim t-he team was to be built. In addition to these several subs from the '25-'26 team were on hand and the prospect was none too gloomy. The first two games were with New Castle in a weeks time, although the boys lost both games, they fought hard to stave off defeat of the veteran New Castle Quintet. The team that started the season appeared to be a good one. yet several changes were necessary before a team was found which was to carry G. C. H. S. through a successful season. Suffering from the two defeats at the hands of New Castle, G. C. revenged o11 Chicora, New VVilmington and VVest Middlesex, taking three in a row. A real treat was given when the crack Sharon five invaded G. C. for their annual battle. The game was Nip and Tuck for three quarters and then Sharon rallied to defeat the fighting G. C. team, the game ending Sharon 20, G. C. 15. The following week the team played away defeating Mercer and losing a hard fought game to Sharpsville. The fans were commencing to realize the stellar brand of basketball, to which they were being treated, so a large crowd turned' out to witness a real struggle played with the Champion Farrel team. And what a battle it wasp yet it was played hard, clean and fast. It probably was the outstanding game of the home season. The score being close throughout the four quarters, with a scant half minute to play and Farrell leading two points. Hall tied it up witlfg a double decker, then following with just a second to play before the whistle would blow Capt. john Murray dropped in another two points ending a well played game with G. C. 21 to Farrell 19. Encouraged by such a victory the team tool-: to the road playing Green- ville and New Wilniington, winning both games by a large score. After splendid samples of basketball the team suffered a defeat by a tune of 22-19. Farrell winning the second battle between the two schoolsj an extra period was played to decide the battle. G. C. played a good game. holding its opponents to one field goal during the second half. The last game of the season was with Sharpsville, on the home floor. Both teams displayed fine basketball in the last quarter Sharpsville overcome G. C. lead by a late rally winning 29-23. This game closed the season of 1926-27, being successful with 10 wins and 7 defeats. No one individual was responsible for the success of the local quintet, although Hall lead the scoring of the team. and also of the County. Had it not' been for the floor work of Capt. Murray, Montgomery, Faull, Dunn and Patterson he would never have been able to send the ball through the loop so many times in one season. Eighty One I ig-ngjf' ,A 'ii f. 1 Qi- W,-391-,, . ,,,...,. - THE.FINE14.N0i1f.2w'f Next year we hope for .another good season in the court game, with such men as Klink, Dunn, Sandrock, Smith and Cameron showing up Well, with more experience will give G. C. a fighting team. They have shown in their Work this year' that they are the makings of a good team. Now that the season is over the team is given allrthe credit due them for carrying the Gold and White colors through the season of 1926-27 so successfully. But we must not forget the Coaches Hartman and McBride. Coach Hartman is considered one of the greatest basketball players ever turned out at Grove City College and since he has taken, up his duties as a Coach in G. C. H. S. much credit is due him for his work. He has lent every resource in his body so that the boys of the team might profit by them. Much depends on joe in G. C. teams with the co-operation of the individ- uals of the team and the support of the school, G. C. will be successful in the future Athletics. Joe's saying is play hard, clean, and fight.

The drawing of the teams was unusual, for the four leading teams of the county drew the four weakest teams, and caused much enthusiasm for the semi-finals. Grove City played Sandy Lake the first night and won by a close score of 21-18. The game was well played and hard fought. Sharpsville won from Mercer the same night by an over-whelming score. This brought Grove City and Sharpsville together in the semi-finals. which was one of the outstanding games of the tournament. The rivalry between Grove City and Sharpsville has always been very keen, although Grove City lost, the team deserves much credit, for they Went to defeat fighting like demons over a veteran team. The surprise of the tournament was Greenville defeating Farrell. Green- ville lvfad only won seven games all season, while Farrell's record showed but three defeats. Sharon had an easy time defeating Fredonia and defeated Greenville in the semi-finals also. On the final night Sharon defeated Sharpsville and won the Championship of the County.

All the boys entered the contests with t'pep and enthusiasm. The rivalry was keen for each class vowed to win the championship and get the the Hamilton cup.,' But as four championships were not given, only one class could win and the Senior boys by hard work, and fair play won out under the direction of Coach E. S. Hassler, not being defeated in the entire series. The most hotly contested game was- between the Junior and Senior boys. This game decided the championship. The teams were well matched. The contest was one extremely interesting event. each team scoring only one field goal. The Juniors were leading by one point and with only a second to play Cliff Bolender took a long shot- and just as the ball went through the hoop the game ended with a score 11-10 in favor of the Seniors, thus winning the Hamilton cup for three 'consecutive years. This is the first time since inter-class basketball started in G. C. H. S. that the same team has come out victorious in their Sophomore, junior and Senior years. Hurrah, for thc class of '27.

Since its organization the Orchestra has grown larger each year until now it has almost reached the symphony number. The string and the wood-wind choirs are now complete. This year we have acquired some new instruments which are: The Basoon, the English Horn, the French Horn, the Oboe, Bells and Saxophone. The regular orchestra is held on Vfednesday at 3:15 and Thursday and Friday at 8:30, when they also play for chapel. The orchestra has had many invitations for entertainments. It has played at the Mercer County Teachers Institute, Leesburg, Lyceum num- bers, Contests, Plays and a Concert in which the junior Orchestra and the Grade Orchestra also took part. ' VVe are now practicing for a contest to be held at Conneaut in May. 'We hope we may bring home the bacon for G. C. H. S.

Because of the necessity of the Pine Knot, Prof. E. S. Hassler consented to devote his time to our annual and turned the Band over to Prof. H. M. B. Lehn. Under our new leader the Band is making progress towards the goal of being Master Musicians. This year the Band is practicing for a contest to be held at Conneaut Lake between all the leading schools of this district. This contest is to be held May 18, and has caused much' interest among the members. In the past year the Band played at both the Mercer and Stoneboro Fairs. Along with this they played for all the football and basketball games including a trip to Sharon to the football game held there. This year the Band secured some new intruments, the effect of which is already shown in the music. These instruments. such as the Sousaphone, bassoon, alto clarinet, etc., add much to the quality of the music produced by our Melody Kings. The Band also has some new music and there is no need to call the old pieces by several different names. CHICK - PETE Ninety Seven -FED F'1'Tr-acl , f5'f 2 ml QI!

The club was formed for the purpose of enjoying the entertaining and' practical elements of mathematics, which time does not permit to be taken up in the classroom. The membership consists of juniors in Miss Conrad's geometry classes, who are interested in this work. The programs are made very interesting by various discussions of geometric designs and plans, mathematical recitations and recreations. Judging from the progress made this year, we may anticipate a helpful organization in the future that will be of interest to all who realize the importance ot the study of mathematics.

This annual of a quarter of a century ago was published by the High School Debating Club. Henry Thompson, editor-in-chief, aided by two assistants, Maria Thompson and Frederick Paul McConkey edited a worthy publication-- The High School Echo. The contents are as follows: History of the School Description of the School High School Life fNight l,ife.j Editorials Senior Department - Junior Department Sub-junior Department Snapshots Locals Alumni Notes Advertisements The first article was the history of the Grove City Public Schools. From it we learn- The first Grove City School Building was built in 1830, near the site of the present one. The building was twenty by thirty feet in size, weather-boarded with rough boards, with greased paper for windows. The furniture of the school room consisted of seats made from slabs and placed around three sides of the room, the front row alone having desks. These were made from soft wood, and were well' adapted for receiving the artistic carvings so skillfully executed by our ancestors' jack-knives. Besides these rude seats and desks the master also had a desk, which was generally used as a receptacle for contraband articles and prohibited weapons. such as apples. half-niunched during school hours. tops. pop-guns, whirligigs, jack-straws and whole legions of little paper game-cocks. The ceiling of this house wlas lined with rough boards, but though rough. they were beautifully adorned. having been studded by our ancient ancestors with paper wads-chewing gum not yet having come into vogue. In those times school was in session but six months a year, three in the summer, taught by a female. for then the big boys could not come, and three in the winter, taught by a male, who could take care of the big boysj The branches of the curriculum at first were Reading. Wfriting, Spelling: afterwards Geography, Grammar and Arithmetic were added. The most use-- ful piece of apparatus to the master was the birch, which lay above the door when not on the backs of our intellectual forefathers. The pupils furnished their own books, stationery, etc. The pens they made from quills, and the ink mostly from maple bark and, poke berries. The building stood on a stone wall about two feet high, and was very cold in winter on account of the wind, which blew under it through the large crevices in the wall. The first teacher was Miss Nellie Bolton, who began to teach in this building before! it was completed. In 1860 a new school house with two rooms was built. and in 1865 an addition was put on. By a queer coincident this building was burned on the One Hundred Ten ,.l-ggi. i r ' or : Tr-or 1 4 ,- W 't A 3- Q .' ' 'XX r - -- ,.HEf!NE5N0L., gif- s last day of school in 1874. The next year a four room brick building was erected. Two rooms were paid for by the school directors and two by the citizens. In a few years the directors bought the two upper rooms In 1901. after many years of debate the directors tore down the old building and erected the present large and beautiful building, which stands on the corner of Center and Main Streets. facing upon Main, in the center of the town. The time in Grove City has arrived when boys and girls not receiving a good education will have to attribute it to wasted opportunity. This article was written by the editor-in-chief, Henry B. Thompson. The next article was a history of the founding and development of Grove City. In describing the activities of the town the article states: f'Grove City contains twelve grocery stores. five dry goods and clothing stores, two feed stores. two furniture, three hardware. four drug, two notion and two shoe stores, also two banks. three hotels, four restaurants, four livery stables and one harness shop. The chief manufacturing establishments are the foundry, the gas engine works, the carriage works, the pottery, broom factory, two flouring mills, five blacksmith shops and one planing mill. VVolf Creek which flows through the eastern part of the town. furnishes excellent water power for the mills. The town has four churches, the Presbyterian, United Presbyterian, Methodist, and Reformed, the ministers of which are Rev. McConkey, Rev. Martin, Rev. Douglas and Rev. Kerr, respectively. The buildings are large and substantial and each church has a large attendance, the total membership of all being about fifteen hundred The Carnegie Library, which was donated to the town by Mr. Carnegie. and cost alrout 30,000 dollars- is one of our finest buildings. lt was completely stocked with reading material in the fall of l90l, and is now open to the public. On the basement floor of the library is a gymnasium, which is open to both college and town. The third story contains a well furnished auditorium. . The prospects of Grove City are bright for the future. The size and population of the town have almost doubled in the last decade. Improve- ments are seen on every hand and the character of the citizens is a sure indica- tion of great things to be accomplished in the future. The High School at that time provided only one. three year course for those who desired an education beyond that which could be obtained in the grammar school. The first year students were Sub-Juniors, the second, juniors and the third Seniors. just as now. the first year students were razzed without mercy, but then, even the second year sudents were objects of ridicule. CCheer up Freshies you'll be Seniors some day.j Each class had their own motto and yell and colors. These were original and were suitably adapted to the needs of the class. The Senior class consisted of twelve members- exceedingly lively as is shown by their yell and motto. Their motto was: Rowing not Driftingf, and their yell was: How-dy-do! How-dy-do! How-dy-do! Rip-azip! Rip-a-zap! Rip-Zap-zoo! Grove City High School 1902. There were sixteen members of the -lunior Class. Their motto was: Not for School but for l,ifef' And their yell was: One Hundred Eleven 1.6:- X HEFINEKND as ...- - 13 X H Muscle and brain, muscle and brain The Juniors are on top againg Vic-tor-ee ! Vic-tor-ee I Hurrah for the class of 1903. The Sub-Juniors had thirty members and although it was their first year of High School life, they had already selected their motto and yell. The motto of the Sub-juniors was: 'fl,aunched but not Anchoredf' And their yell was: Boom-a-lack, boom-a-lack, Bow, wow, wow! Ching-a-lacka, ching-a-laclca, Chow, chow, chowl Boom-a-lacka, ching-a-lacka, Yell no more! Grove City High School 1904! The Local Department of the High School licho' contains such items of local interest as. lll Some beautiful maple trees have been planted along the walks surrounding the High School lawn. l2j The Council is thinking of furnishing the town with fire bells. There will probably be three of them. one in Brooklyn. one on Tony Hill and one on North Broad Street. KSLJ Main Street has been surveyed and the Council is now ready for bids. The street will be paved with fire brick from the borough' line to the bridge. The work will probably be completed by luly lst. C45 A new addition has been thrown open to our town by some enter-- prising speculators. It lies east of town and bids fair to become one of the best residence districts. A bridg'e over Wolf Creek is soon to be built, graded streets to be made and sewage and city water put in. QSD Grove City is now having a great boom in building. On every street houses are going up. They are in every stage of progress, from the excava- tion of the cellar to the finishing touches of the painter. They will increase the valuation of our town many thousands of dollars. C6j During the last month Grove Cityls new foundry company has begun business. Their foundry is doing good work, and is sure of success. It is a great improvement to our town along the manufacturing line. It employs many men, thereby bringing more good citizens to our town. 175 The alumni banquet given in honor of the graduating class of 1902. was a pleasant gathering. .Nlter the excellent tray supper. served by the ladies of the M. E. Church, the time was spent in renewing old acquaintances. forming new ones, playing games and listening to music. About eighty attended the banquet. f8j The merchants of this town are very enterprising and take an interest in our school, as is shown in our advertising pages. There is no town with better merchants than ours. They believe in advertising and know that it pays. VVe believe that they will never find a better place to put an advertisement than in the HIGH SCHOUI, ECHO.

Vlfithout their efforts the ECHO would not have been a success. Yet all that the editors have done together with these pupils would have availed nothing without the tireless energy- the work and the supervision of Prof. Mooney. ninis The Advantage of a High School Education The time is fast approaching when it will be almost impossible for any boy or girl to secure any kind of a clerical position without at least a High School Education. In any kind of employment without the foundation a high school educa- tion gives one, advancement is difficult and slow and if one floes not get his education in school before much headway can be made, he must educate himself which is done usually under adverse circumstances. A High School education teaches one to think for himself. and after spending four years in high school, one is better prepared to decide on what vocation or profession he is best fitted for. ' The friendship and associations made in high school are our most lasting ones, and in after life both profit and pleasure is brought to us from this contact. My advice to every boy and girl is to complete their High School course. E. B. HARSHAW One'Hundred Thirteen T bfi 7 gin p e -.1 TTT A . F '- x x - me , e lx 611 The Necessity of Securing an Education. The necessity of education has increased and will continue to increase as long as civilization continues to advance in its complexity. Because of the unparralled progress during the past fifty years the need for education multiplied itself many times. For example, a century ago transportation consisted of little more than a wagon and a driver who knew the road. Today a system of transportation involves millions of dollars and thousands of carefully trained, intelligent men. In a like manner, farming has progressed from merely exhausting one fertile piece of soil after another by crude methods of agriculture to the intelligent rotation of crops and the conserving and building up the soil. It takes men of education to do these things. Education does many things. lt helps one make money, it insures a suc- cessful career, it made possible a larger, fuller and better life. Another thing which it gives is the power of attention. The best courses of study are those which train the mind to concentrate and to hold its attention upon an object until it glows with light of interest, the power to marshal all the forces of the mind and march them together to codquest and victory. To be able to sit down and focus attention upon one problem until it is thought through, is a satisfaction that belongs to the educated mind. The man who can do this is the educated man. He can get what he wants, for the world will always turn aside to let the man pass who knows where he is going. , . Education puts a man into fellowship with all the ages. It enables him to listen intelligently while all the poets and prophets and the sages of the centuries talk to him. It broadens his life in his own generation Education makes a man many sided. A trained mind. will observe more in a day than an ignorant man will in a century. At the present time, all issues call for leadersg we need men of thought and of action, men of knowledge, men of insight, men of vision. men whose horizons are broad and whose thinking is controlled by the soundest an-il best principels, men who are capable of making the path for themselves and their fellows and setting the pace controlled by the soundest and best for others to follow If there is one thing that fits a man for this duty, it is education. It fits him for service. it makes him a larger, truer man. Thus it is the duty of every man and woman to get all of this kind of education that he can. 'What if education is hard to attain? The greater, then, is its value, and the owner of an education can do these things which without it would be impos- sible. To get all the education possible is the duty of every intelligent person. lt is a duty to himself, to his generation, to the future and to his Creator. . HARLAND J.

COST IN MONEY-Is less than 2-3 of the actual cost of instruction. A college course is the' best bargain of today for anything else you purchase contains someone's profit, in addition to the cost. COST IN TIME-The two years from 18-20 seem small in com- parison with the balance of your life they are extremely short and they are also the least productor financially unless invested in study. IT PAYS FINANCIAI,LY---The United States Buerau of Education figures each day in College is worth nine 69.001 dollars to the student. It has been carefully estimated a College graduate earns during his worthy life 572,000.00 more than the man without a high school education. IT PAYS IN OPPORTUNITIES-- LEADERSHIP-Not every college graduate becomes a leader in the world, but it helps him immeasureably. LIFE TVVORTH LIVING-By opening up new horizons in orderly routine. SPIRITUAL VALUES4Increases our ideals by training our hearts along with our heads. MANY BY-PRODUCTS-Democracy, Loyalty, Self-reliance, good times in the truest sense. ONE SUGGESTION-Consider carefully the above facts. Fraternally, I. P. HASSLER, '07 The Value of High School Education Disregarding the fact that a I-Iigh School education is essential to those who intend to pursue any of the professions, a High School education increases the earning power of a person to a great extent. Statistics showing that pro- portions to be about two to one during the wage earning years. VVhile this monetary argument in itself proves the wisdom of High School education. it is really only a small portion of the advantages that are the result of a better education. The nature of the work done by a person of education is for the most part, much more enjoyable than that which a large portion of the uneducated perform. Considering the social side of life, the conception of art. music. science, etc., in direct relationship to amount of preparation an individual may have had. Lastly, gaining a I-Iigh School education, a desire for further knowledge is often awakened within the individual which results in its pursuance through college and university thereby making men and women who are usually helpful to humanity.
