MISS EVA HENDERSON Senior Home Room Teacher Page nineteen HISTORY OF CLASS OF 1930 First Year Bright and early on September 13, 192( , sixty trembling, anxious-faced children made their way reluctantly to the “Temple of Learning” known as the llarrodsburg High School. To climb those few stone steps that lead to the campu® and walk up to that beautiful brick building was almost too hard a task for us to undertake. But with shaking knees and fluttering hearts we made our way to tin front entrance. To our joy we were told by the upper classmen that the Freshmen entered the side doors. When we entered we were amazed at the beauty of the corridor, we did not dream that any school could look like that; why, it was almost like the State Capitol or some other fine st ructure. We were shown to our rooms; the nineteen boys to Mr. Allison’s on the first floor, and (to the delight of the forty girls) to the second floor to Miss Hue’s room, for on the first floor did not these monarchs, the Seniors, reign. Oh. to be a Senior. Many of us let our thoughts wander four years ahead but some thought only of the present and dreaded the meeting with those “lords of knowledge;” many would go all the way down the hall and climb the other stairs just to keep from passing the Senior room door. We soon chose our subjects and entered the “petty round of irritating concerns and duties.” We were overjoyed when the surprising news came to us that Mr. MeKemie was going to have an auditorium assembly for the “Freshmen.” We had been in the assemblies of the whole school and knew he had them for other classes, but for us. it was hardly believable. We sat very still, like little mice, while he played for us many beautiful records which we had never heard before. This was but one of the many assemblies in store for us in the days ahead. At Christmas time Miss Rue gave a little play and she chose one of our number, Frances True Brown, for leading lady. Others of the talented ones wen Sada (labhart. Mary Elizabeth Hutton, Ruth Sandusky, Irene McDonley, Willie Hood Hatchett and Margaret Gentry. Those who were not in the play helped sell tickets and decorate. The play was a success. “Exams.” This one word has caused more terror than any other word in the school curriculum. To some of us it meant Page twenty holidays foi there wore a number of exemptions, but to the majority it meant days of strenuous toil and nights of wakefulness. But. when tin smoke of battle cleared away we came off with Hying colors. We organized our class soon afterwards. Linton Witherspoon was elected president, Billy Alford, vice-president, and Warren Spaulding, secretary and treasurer. As March drew nigh tiie words “Basketball Tournament.” were on everyone’s lips. To the fine girls from our class, who had worked hard all season, it meant more work and much excitement. But work was forgotten when the glory of victory was ours. The following week we girls planned and thought of nothing else but the coming week when we would go to the city, Louisville, for the regional tournament. Miss Armstrong was our chaperone and we couldn’t have had a better. From there we brought home a cup. We had many experiences there that have become pleasant memories. If anyone wishes to know the meaning of “Pillow Fighting,” “Club Sandwiches,” “Tipping the Elevator Boy” and “Finger Bowls,” just ask the five—Mary None. Kathryn Gibson, Irene McDonley, Maye Bertram and Dora Curd. In May we sent Margaret Gentry to the Latin tournament. Although she did not win a prize, she received honorable mention. We were very proud of her because in Latin not all could make A’s. Also in May our class was well represented in the Hi-Y-Girl Reserve track meet at Burgin. from which we brought home the banner. Second Year To be a Freshman was great, but to be a Sophomore was greater. We had climbed one more rung in the ladder of knowledge. No more were we looked down upon, no longer called “Frcshies.” Virginia Lay was elected president., Ruth Sandusky, vice-president; Ruth YanArsdall, secretary, and Charles Ded-man, treasurer. When the roll was called we found that twelve of our original number were missing. Before we fully realized it, Christinas came again. This year Miss Henderson had an exhibition of the things we had made in our Caesar class. Some of tin1 exhibits were the catapulta, the mouse, a Roman court, dolls dressed as Romans and the Roman camp. «4® - Page twenty-one We Sophomores gave a Christmas party in the library; this was enjoyed by all. The lunch room was sponsored largely by our class this year. Or course the Freshmen could not help, and last year we had not had a chance to show the others that we, too, could make “croquettes ' This year we sent Willie Hood Hatchett to the Latin tournament. We were proud of her, too. On May the thirtieth a declamation contest was held in the auditorium. Those who entered from our class were Frances True Brown, Willie Hood Hatchett, .Margaret Gentry, Mary Elizabeth Hutton, Eva Watts, Irene McDonley, Charles Dedman and Dora Curd. All did so well that it was very difficult for the judges to “pick a winner.” Two from our ranks received prizes, the first going to Dora Curd, the second to Margaret Gentry. Third Year When September came again we had climbed still higher—we were Juniors. This year we were to learn what “Q. E. D. stood for and we often heard “So much for that when we tacked those three letters to our propositions. The class officers were: Condit VanArsdall, president; Dora Curd, vice-president; Mary Elizabeth Hutton, secretary, and Charles Dedman, treasurer During the year the wearisome daily routine was relieved by hay-rides, hikes and weiner roasts. On May the seventeenth, we Juniors entertained the Seniors at Shakertown Inn, with the annual Junior-Senior reception. As the end of school approached Miss Elliott planned to do something “nice for her History and English classes. We wondered what it would Ik and were very much pleased when she asked us if we would like to go to Bardstown. On the Friday of review week Miss Elliott obtained a truck, the girls furnished the lunch, the boys bought the drinks and fruit and we started. We had an enjoyable trip, for many had not seen My Old Kentucky Home, and the Cathedral and school there. This year our class displayed its talents in music, drama and scholarship in the various contests. Condit VanArsdall was so fortunate as to win the scholarship contest in mathematics, while Willie Hood Hatchett received honorable mention in Latin. Fourth Year And now we have climbed to the last rung of the High School ladder of fame. We are Monarchs now—thirty-one of us. Of course we all cannot be equally famous. The honors have been distributed as follows: Class officers—President, Ruth Sandusky; vice-president, Condit VanArsdall; secretary, H. B. Allen, and treasurer, Charles Dedman. In Hi-Y, Condit VanArsdall is presiclent; Charles Dedman, secretary, and H. B. Allen, treasurer. In Girl Reservo, Dora Curd is president; Ruth Sandusky, vice-president, and Mary Elizabeth Hutton, secretary. We have been too busy for many social activities this year. One of the few parties, a masquerade, was given on Hallowe’en. Everyone had a jolly time and the girls demonstrated their knowledge of Chemistry in the following reaction: 1 gallon of milk 4- 3 cups of sugar chocolate, heated to 200C = burnt cocoa. Now our High School career is nearly ended. We have gained for ourselves a standing in old Harrodsburg. It is said that we have made more A’s than any preceding class. On the first semester honor, half of our class was mentioned. We feel that we have excelled in many activities. Soon we will go into the great world of experience. How steep and stony that road of life will be we cannot say, but we are sure that with our four years of excellent training, we will face the difficulties of that life with our heads up and with a smile. To help us in our strife we will take many pleasant memories from old H. H. S. —DORA CURD. Page twenty-two Senior Snaps mm Almost Out •Spring Training n nk Again Kontiiekv W'hnM- lVdnls An- Thcuo Page twenty-three PROPHECY A good many years ago a dear friend “dipped into the future,” far as “human eye could see,” and wrote down the things revealed to her. I, being a close friend of her’s, was told of this paper which began like this: “’This prophecy of the Senior Class of 1980, I leave in my vault to he opened ten years lienee, if I am deceased.” It has been thirteen years since she told me of this little secret. On May 27, 1940, while going thru my diary, I happened to come upon the account of 1 his episode as 1 had written it ten years before. My friend had not been seen or heard of for five years at the time 1 was reading my account of the happy high school days. Many of her home town friends thought she had died obscurely in some small place and no one had written to us about it, as she was slow to make friends. I knew that 1 had no right to go to the old vault and take the paper, since 1 didn't know her whereabouts, but curiosity overcame my scruples and 1 could not resist the temptation. 1 went to the bank, opened the vault and took from it the forecast of our class’s future. When I returned with the papers, which were wrapped in a fragment of the dress she wore on the night of our graduation I could not read them. I sat down to think and the tears filled my eyes. The dress had been a beautiful frock, long and flowing, made of white chiffon, a dress of style and the admiration of all the Senior girls. At last I dried my eyes and began to read her interesting account of what my classmates were supposed to be doing at t li very date that 1 was reading her prophecy. I could not believe it true. Her account of the occupation of the three classmates who were the only ones remaining in tin old town was exact. There was Flora Cassell who was having the time of her life teaching Freshman Latin and first year French in Harrods-burg High School, as successor to Miss Henderson, who had resigned her position only in the last year. Then there was Marvin Kays who, with our friend. Billy Alford. had bought a half interest in the Old Fort, and now sat back puffing cigars, with money .just rolling in as the price of admission had been raised to $2.00. Very frequently they were Pajre twenty-four asked if they were grandsons of Daniel Boone, since the resem Idanee was so striking. And, of course, poor little me with a lovely little home, writing poems in blank verso and heroic couplets for my living. We four met at my home one evening in the following week for bridge and somehow our old classmate was brought into the conversation and this brought to my mind the old prophecy of our Senior Class. 1 got it and we went over it together. We decided that it would be very interesting to get in touch with all of the old crowd and find if her prophecy in regard to them had come true. The search was begun the next day. We already knew the whereabouts of some of them and knew it would not be so very hard to find the rest. Talk about fun. We surely had it. I only wish I had time to tell you of our experiences, but I must hurry on. First we found Edwin Adams who was “wise-cracking” and “joking” for the New York Times. Edwin was living happily in a cozy little apartment in New York, with the sweetest little wife and a still sweeter child. Theirs was certainly a happy home. In direct contrast to this happy man, was Thelma Royalty. She had married a handsome young gentleman—you may guess who, and they quarreled continually. The quarrelling seemed to be caused from the fact that Thelma “would have no man ordering her around.” The same old Thelma. Such is life, so we must pass on. While on the subject of marriage, I’d just as well tell of all the old married folks. Our friend, Mary Elizabeth Hutton is Mrs. Van Dyke, of Philadelphia, a multi-millionaire’s wife. I always knew Mary Elizabeth would do well—? And would you believe it? We found Bush Finnell married to Miss Dora Curd, living happily on Dora’s ranch in California, fishing and loafing for dear life. Mr. and Mrs. Ensminger, in other words, Ruth VanArsdall and Worthington, were found playing on the sands at Clearwater, Fla., with their guest. Miss Willie Hood Hatchett and fiance. A happy little party this was, and 1 longed to join them, but could not spare the time. And speaking of marriages, we found our friend’s only false prediction here. Instead of Miss Lucile l.ay being married, as she prophesied, we found her still leading Mr. Condit VanArsdall, one of the greatest contractors of the day, and another boy friend from New Jersey—a merry chase. Poor boys! Mrs. “Skip Rue—ah—our old friend and cheer leader, Miss Frances True Brown, was discovered in the depths of Chicago teaching dancing, against the washes of her dear husband. But she enjoyed her work, so “Skip” should worry. Mr. Charles Dedman, who owns a nice little drug store in Burgin, Ky., seems very well satisfied with his wife. Their three children are thriving beautifully. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Rue are also happy in their country home in Rhode Island. You can’t imagine who Mrs. Frank Rue was? Well, she was Miss Margaret Gentry. Quite a surprise to us all, isn’t it. Miss Dolly Gregory was found to be engaged to Mr. James Champion, Professor of Physics at Harvard University. Miss Gregory—our friend Dolly—has been on the Pago twenty-five stage for three years under an assumed name—a wonderful actress—and to think we never expected it of Dolly. Miss Ruth Sandusky has been employed by King George of England to paint two great portraits, one of himself and one of the Queen. Ruth has become a wonderful artist. Such success is well deserved, for Ruth studied hard at art school. Here I will speak of Mary Della Vandivier. You all remember Mary Della—our shy little friend. Well, Mary Della is now writing. She wrote a book not so long ago entitled “Q. E. D.” It is a study of school life, a very interesting novel. One of the characters portrayed is the exact likeness of our old Geometry teacher, Mr. Lewis. Geometry brings to mind our red-headed friend, C. S. VanArsdall. C. S. is now Professor of Mathematics at the Louisville Male High School. He seems to have made quite a hit with the society ladies there, for during week end one can never find him at home. Always at Miss “So and SoV’ or at some other “Miss.” The last time 1 saw C. S. he had been to call on Miss Irene McDonley, who is president of the Woman’s Club in Louisville. We had some distance to go to find our two old friends, Misses Emma Middleton and Eva Watts. Do you remember how they used to chum together all the time? They are still as thick as ever. They run an exclusive hat shoppe in Paris. I went there last year. They didn’t know me, so I walked in as a customer. Flora Cassell was with me. We both tried on hats for half an hour, undiscovered. At last, after selecting hats, we were recognized by Eva who received our checks. She threw her arms around both of us at once, and tore up the checks. The hats were ours and Eva and Emma wanted us to live in Paris. We were tempted but, to our sorrow, couldn’t stay. In London, on the way home, whom should we meet but Alma Wheeler. We had expected to find her on American soil, but she fooled us. Alma was in London advertising a new' American brand of perfume. We enjoyed a happy day with her and heard that Miss Kathryn Gibson was visiting friends in Pallas, Ireland, the old home of Robert Burns. We didn’t see Kathryn, but learned that she has taken up the profession of coaching and was there training American girls for the Olympics. On returning to America we went to Philadelphia for no reason at all, and to our surprise found Miss Lena Rivers Sparrow operating a radio station, broadcasting at all hours. She seemed to enjoy her work and we became so interested that it was hard to leave, but as there were three classmates yet to be found, w e continued our journey. 1 wrote to the Bureau of Information in California (Dora Curd’s ranch) and found that she knew where Sada Gabhart was. Sada had entered the movies ami was known as “Marietta White.” Her latest picture was called “The Golden Romance.” I saw the picture and in her first leading part I thought Sada did remarkably well. Everyone was crazy over her and her picture. Miss Thelma Lake was found in a small town in Ohio editing the “cutest” paper one ever saw. She called it the “Lake Special” and you can imagine the witty remarks and tales Thelma put in that paper. I wrote for a copy and to my great joy she sent me one. But time is flying. I must hurry. I believe this is all. No, there is one more, Mr. Ben Allen. Ben is teaching dancing at a school in Chicago. He has donj very well in his work and his wife—I forgot to mention the fact that Ben wras married—and she is proud of him. He is a marvelous dancer and as witty as ever. Now we have all of our classmates, all but one. When we had found our friends and also found the prophecy tiue, I took the papers to where they had been kept for so many years. On the way to the bank I thought about the writer and remembered she had left no account of herself. When I reached my destination and put tho papers in the vault, I noticed a latin inscription in ink on the back of a sheet of paper lying in the bottom of the vault. The paper had evidently slipped from the batch and 1 had missed it. The inscription in English read: “I iive in peace.” This may mean on earth or in Heaven. As I sit by my fireside and dream. I dream of her. I hope she is happy and in peace if on earth, and if not, 1 know she is in peace, because never has there been a more kindly and good girl. —MAYE BERTRAM. Pase twenty-six Me Page twenty-seven CLASS WILL We, the Class of 1930, being almost ready to pass from this hard and cruel life in Harrodsburg High School, do make and publish this, our last will and testament.

Item We give and bequeath to Miss Henderson the coming three months’ vacation in order that she may have plenty of time for the meeting of her Latin Club. Item We, after much consideration, have decided upon these small bequests, and w'O hope that they will not be received as something valueless, but that they will be re ceived in the same generous spirit in which they are given.

To Louise Cheatham, Maye Bertram’s “Rules for Bleaching Hair.” VI. To Claude I eslie Strader, James Champion’s deep bass voice, in order that the good work of James, in making the halls of Old H. H.

Kn miti; Parker Parked! fh'hind the Umbrella FACTOTUMS . ] Indispensable Page thirty CLASS POEM Oh, how well we ;ill remember, Only four short years ago, Those first days of September, We came plodding, oh so slow! Freshmen we were, faint and trembling, Knocking on the door of knowledge, Seeking, seeking, higher learning, Starting on our road to college. We were met with cordial welcome, There were helping hands to lend, And among our fellow students We found many a faithful friend. Then we grew, we timid Freshmen, Almost Sophomores, brave and strong; How we worked! Mow hard we studied! To be foremost in the throng. Well, our labor was rewarded, The long year was o’er at last, And from Freshies into Sophomores Most of us had safely passed. From Sophomores to Juniors grown, Our souls with pride did swell; We loved to boast, for we believed No class had done so well. But now a sad time’s coming, And it’s almost here, For we are near the closing Of our Senior year. -one We’ve had a good time every day, We’ve played and worked together. It mattered not how much it rained, Or how fair was the weather. Soon our school days will bo o’er, Each will take his separate way. And I’m hoping, hoping, hoping, We will meet again some day. Then in friendship reunited, Each may tell what he has done, Of the wrongs he may have righted, How he fought and lost or won. Or with mind’s eye looking backward Live again the days gone by— Days so full of pleasant memories, Good old days in Harrodsburg High. —MARY DELLA VAN DIYIER.

As usual nothing happened this year for we were not even noticed. However, we did our work well and when school began in 1928 we were anything else but “meek” Sophomores. This year was uneventful except for a party or two and a few hikes. The Junior Class of 1920 is unique in that it consists of twenty-one hoys and only eleven girls. Hut wo eleven girls— lookout! We are “It” with a big capital “1,” so we believe. Don’t think we are conceited, because we are not. As we are the only ones who survived the “trial of fire,” we have reason to be a slight hit “high hat.” Our hoys came in fora share of glory, as the basketball team was composed mainly of Juniors, who did not study .just to Ineligible for the team, but to widen their horizons. All the faculty had an acute attack of heart enlargement and proceeded to assist us on over the rough humps when they saw our sincere efforts to climb the hill to Seniorville. —J. B. H. —C. T. Page thirty-seven Page thirty-nine SOPHOMORE, CLASS A SOPHOMORE FAIRY STORY Once upon a time in a little spot called Fairyland, which was in the heart of tin Mine Grass, there dwelt many fairies. These fairies had formed of themselves four hands, according to the length of time they had lived in Fairyland, the first, senior; the second, junior; the third, sophomore; the fourth, freshman. All the fairies were very happy, for their kingdom was a beautiful one and their king was wise and good. Moreover, he had advisors who did nothing but plan amusements for the subjects. But it is with the particular group called Sophomores that we are most interested in now, because they distinguished themselves more than any other hand in Fairyland. “Sophomore” is a name given to those who think well of themselves, and indeed. this group had a right to think well of themselves. For from tin Sophomores came ten or twelve to represent Fairyland in games called football and basketball and to compete with the fairies from other Fairylands and they did wonderfully well and brought back prizes for their ability. Then too, several fairies from this group were sent to far-distant little fairies to show them what they had learned in Fairyland. Also the fairy who could yell the loudest and had more energy and pep than any other fairy in Fairyland was selected from the Sophomores to lead all the rest in cheering for the games. Still another Sophomore was almost the best boy speaker in Fairyland, and in truth, he did so well that he was given a prize even if lie didn’t get first. In fact, out of ten speakers from all parts of Fairyland four of them were Sophomores. Of course this little band would like to keep their tent pitched in this particular part of Fairyland and “live happily ever after,” thus bringing our fairy story to the usual close, but the wise and good king and his advisors have decreed that this is not to be. So as time passes they grow wiser and more and more in harmony with each other and with other bands and then finally they are expected to break camp and move to another part of Fairyland, which they mean to glorify just as they have always done and always will. —M.

How big the name sounded! The first few weeks we obeyed the upper classmen, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors; but as time went on we gained confidence and became accustomed to everybody and began to take part in the great hustle and bustle. In athletics we made a good showing. In football we were represented by Vernon Gibbs and Ernest Epperson, both of whom won letters. Vernon Gibbs made the varsity basketball team, thereby winning a handsome sweater. Most of the girls became members of the Girl Reserve Chib and took active part in the work, while some of the boys became members of the Ili-V. We did not allow these extra curricular activities to interfere with our studies and most of us will be Sophomores next year. Won’t we feel big.' M. F. AND M.

The football team, led by Hollis Edwards, had a very good season, winning and losing. The basketball teams led by “Issy ’ Edwards and “Pete” McDonley, showed much team spirit and ability. Although the girls lost out in the tournament, we are proud of them nevertheless, and if it had not been for our indispensable managers, with their ever-ready aid, especially when the team was in need of any of the necessities of a team, such as mercurchrone, cotton, bandage, adhesive and lastly, “WATER.” Credit is due to our two able cheer leaders, Frances True Brown and “Bill” Ransdell; and last, but not least, our chaperone, Mrs. Parker.

They won a large percent of their games and won the district tournament, and made a good showing in the regional. The girls of Harrodsburg High were equally successful, although they did not win many laurels in the tournament; but the school and town is just as proud of them.

The earliest effort to educate humans was in Egypt, and then the education was limited to some slight mathematical problems, mysteries, superstitions and political plans to make rulers. Then civilization crossed the sea to Greece, and there they began training intelligence in music, poetry, literature, history, philosophy and statesmanship. After that, and in the Middle Ages, the human race plunged into the twilight of darkness. Then came the reformation. At this time, the embers of education were raked out of the ashes of the past, and the flames began to light the world. Today in all advanced countries, compulsory education is attracting attention. In America it is an established rule. Ignorance is recognized by thinking people as a most dangerous menace. The commonwealth that fails to educate the children of the poor, belongs to the Dark Ages. 1. When America spends its millions of dollars for the education and enlightenment of the children of the common people, this country is steering the old Ship of State in the right channel. Indifference to mental training of children can best be brought home by stepping across the Rio Grande. No man has ever stood on the soil or rocks of a country that has more natural resources than that of the Republic of Mexico. And still they stand in the dim light of ignorance, superstition and squalor, and all for the lack of the advantages of common education. 2. That which makes men happiest and best able to be of service to their country is always obtainable by education. We often point with pride and say that our children are educated; but did it ever occur to you that our children are educating the older citizenship into the belief that schools are our safety—that the uneducated are the un-American?
