As a whole, the class has tried in every way to help the school be first in all which has been undertaken. The boys have worked hard in athletics, have helped in music, debating and Anvil work. The girls have entered into the true spirit of school life also, and have sung, debated, and helped the boys wi.n by cheer- ing. No one in the class will leave school this June without feeling that the four years' work has well been worth all the efforts put forth. Each member will have gained knowledge that genuine success in any line of work can come only thru perseverance and a determination to win. no matter what difiiculties must be overcome.

S. appear to us to be happiest days we have ever spent. The four years which in anticipation seemed long work, in retrospect seem all too short play. In these years we have formed friendships which will never be broken. Our view points have been ever changing, but at each change the attraction of P. H. S. has grown greater. Our tedious tasks often caused us to wish that our school days were over, but now it is with regret that we leave them. V Now as we part, some of us never to be associated again, let us hope that the fond memories of our high school days will be common meeting ground of all. The Anvil Board wishes to than Christina Beswick and Marguerite Roberts for their help in arranging and letter- ing the pictures in this issue. lliljllill Doing Our Bit The students of P. H. S. have contributed willingly to all the various calls for money sent out by our government. They have gone over the top in every campaign. Up to this time the War Savings Stamps subscription has been 551580.75 The amount loaned by the P. H. S. stu- dents in the three Liberty Loans has been 318,200 Our school has already started to help fill the Lake County War Chest. Although this movement has just recently started, P. H. S. has subscribed over S77 5- When we think how much we are doing by helping in all of these patriotic movements, surely we have every rea- son to be proud. Billlllll An Acknowledgement The members of the Senior Class were greatly pleased to receive from Mr. John Rich some very pretty commence- ment booklets and Wish to thank Mr. Rich for his kindness and generosity. THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. A Four Years' Voyage On a sparkling sunshiny September morning in 1914 a group of sailors timidly left the Harbor of Home for travel on the ocean, Painesville High School. These sailors had never journeyed on the waters of high school life before, so of course they were a trifle nervous. But not one of them would have allowed the older sailors on the sea to know how wobbly they felt. When those who had decided to take the trip clambered on board boats eleven and twelve, their first pilots, Mr. Wagner and Mr. Old, found that there were many ways of rowing in which these sailors must be instructed to become eflicient oarsmen. A little while later part of this unskilled crew left for boat eight where the pilot, Miss Green, did her best to help these become more accustomed to the tides. At times different members of the crew were stranded from their ships, but the captain, Mr. Lowary, seemed expectant of this, and rescued them from watery graves in the sea. In October the sailors turned their oars toward the shore of pleasure and landed long enough to enjoy a horn- pipe and cider on the island, Maccabee Hall. Friendships were formed on this island with the crew of boat seven who always had disembarked for a good time. Soon after, the sailors returned to their respective ships. They had learned many of the diiiiculties of a seaman's life before there came upon their course a dread whirlpool, Examinations. The boat was allowed to drift at will thru this danger, and nearly all on board were saved. During the next six months the ship sailed rapidly, for the sailors were becoming adept in managing their oars. After another whirlpool of the same type as before encountered Cexaminationsb, the sailors re- turned to the Harbor of Home, tired, but much wiser sea- farers. Nearly all had become so attracted to traveling on the High School Sea the year before that they had decided to return and learn still more of the seaman's life. Those who did not return were greatly missed. This time there were ' 9 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. two boats awaiting them-boats seven and six. Miss Cor- win piloted boat seven, while Mrs. Gilbert was pilot on boat six. This year a meeting of tho-se on board these two ships was held, and Philip Baker was chosen as a sailor capable of managing the crew and presiding at their meetings. Lee who had joined the crew on this second year's voyage, was elected to take Sailor Baker's pla-ce in case of his absence or seasickness. Ava Billington was to keep the log. After some lively discussion it was decided to take green and white as emblem colors of the crew, and each sailor was also allowed to wear an insignia--either a ring or pin. These were not secured until later however, as they must be secured on land and landings were seldom. Some of the boatmen with the help of the Reverend Mr. Dann, planned a float which was to be shown on land in October. This float, representing See Painesville First, was awarded the prize, ten dollars, which the crew invested in a picture, Aurora This pic- ture decorated the cabin of boat seven part of the year, while the cabin of boat six enjoyed it on the remainder of the trip. Pilot Miss Corwin strove to teach those on board the easiest way to manage the Rapids Caesar, but they re- mained for most of the -crew a dangerous part of sea life. ln October the seafarers had another land party at which they were disguised, since they were all still somewhat afraid of each other. Again the sailors returned to vigor- ously ply their oars. All thru this voyage friendships were formed and there was enorgh pleasure to offset the severe storms of Geometry and English. This year, the whirlpool, Examinations, was passed with more ease. In June the ships landed, and the sailors went on land to calm themselves for the strenuous voyage of the third year, for they had heard of its difiiculties and dangers. All were sorry to lose the comrades who had left the sea this year for duty on land. Again, in September, two swift ships, three and five started out with their passengers. There were many Scyllas and Charybadis' to pass in this third year, but enough green isles and calm, beautiful bays to make up. A land party 0:- curred on Hallowe'en. Marguerite Roberts, one of the crew, invited both ship loads to her home. Pilots Miss 'Cum- ings and Miss Frost helped all the sailors to enjoy this trip 10 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. to shore while pumpkin pie and cider played a large part. One of the crew, Arza Scott foretold what the future of the crew would be. Many sailors spent the entire night and part of very early morning on land for these trips were rare. Examinations came, the worst part of the rapids this time being Cicero, Captain Lowary, however, managed to avoid the dangerous results which might have occurred. During the winter, the crew enjoyed a trip on land, on bob-sleds. Ed. Church, a fine sailor, welcomed the crew at his home, which proved a splendid place for a good time. A serious and dangerous coast of rocks was passed called Junior Rhetoricals. After surviving this danger every sailor felt a new confidence in his skill and was glad to have meet this difficulty without fiinching. In April boats three and five entertained boat one on island A. O. H. Hall. This event was a dazzling affair and both crews enjoyed it greatly. Back again on board their ships, the sailors skim- med along lightly over the waves, with only a few danger- ous shoals blocking their progress. One of the number, Ethel Yeomans saddened the crew by her death. She was loved by them all. In June the Rapids, Examinations, again had to be passed, for on high school waters these rapids are found twice in each year's course. The journey was com- pleted by another land trip, a picnic at the Shore Club. Here all the crew renewed their friendships and proved them- selves able sailors by coming home in a pouring rain. The Harbor of Home held most of the crew thru the summer, al- though a few boys of the class, could not endure even two months on land and tried out their knowledge of sailing on Lake Erie. When the time came to prepare for the fourth year's voyage high excitement prevailed. For it seemed so short an time had passed since the first voyage in 1914 that to imag- ine this the last voyage on the high school ocean was nearly impossible. Several of the crew did not return, but there were some new sailors who were welcomed heartily. Every boatman looked more happy than ever at the prospect of an- other ocean voyage. The crew met soon and decided that Lee Root had proved himself so splendid a manager the year 11 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. before that they wanted him to fill that place again. Ava Billington was to assist if it was necessary during his ab- sence. Victor Kerr was to keep the log and more important still, the money, which the crew might acquire on piratical expeditions, boat one sailed on until Hallowe'e.n when a land party occurred on island Maccabee Hall. The weather was rather unpleasant b.ut this slight difiiculty did not keep the sailors from enjoying a jolly hornpipe. The success of this event was due to having all crews on high school waters present, and having each sailor masked. After this event the boats were boarded by their usual crew. Good reports of the crew's industry and great knowledge reached other ships on the high school ocean by S. O. S. messages. Athletes in the crew were not lacking. Football letters were given to sailors. Lee Root, Abe Green- field, Ed. Church, Victor Kerr, and Lloyd Averill. A very interesting paper which all the crews on the sea helped to publish was the Anvil. During the second year's voyage of the crew of boat one, Lee Root and Eliza- beth Chapman were chosen to work for the success of the paper. Victor Kerr was also added in the third year, while Stanton Jones was elected by the crew for the fourth year. All of these sailors proved very efficient in this work. In December, one of the sailors, Lee Root, left the crew to serve as an airman for Uncle Sam. The crew all missed this jolly, popular sailor. Basket 'ball was entered into by several of the sailors and Sailors Abe Greenfield, Victor Kerr and Philip Baker received letters this last voyage of the ship. The sailor girls on boat one formed a Basket Ball team. Owing to their short period of practice they did' not win any games, but nevertheless, true to the spirit of the crew, took their dc- feats without complaining. In February the crew of boats three and five entertained the crew of boat one at a land party in Mentor. In April the same crew entertained boat one on A. O. H. Island. Every sailor present reported an 12 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. enjoyable evening. Base ball came, along with spring, and several sailors on boat one are making good at this. Pilot, Miss Wyman, from the beginning of this year's course kept, and is still keeping, the boat from floundering in deep wat- ers. The crew is planning an afternoon in June to be called Class Day. This day with commencement will form a fit- ting close for a successful year's journey. The crew has missed all those who, for different reasons discontinued the journey. All who have been able to travel on have learned more every day of the true value of high school sailing. The choice of the motto by the crew shows that they feel that they are only beginning the voyage of life. The motto chosen by them is Today we launch, where shall we anchor? Ava Billington, '18. llllllill The time set for class day is the afternoon of June 13th. The Senior class will present the farcical comedy, Profess- or Pepp. The baccalaureate service is to be Sunday, June 16. Rev. W. W. Dieterich, pastor of the First Methodist Church, will preach. The commencement exercises will be held June 21. The speaker is Mr. Wm. H. McMasters, presi- dent of Mt. Union College. Miss Lydia L. Beckwith, a member of our faculty, was married on June 1 to Mr. W. J. Rigger of Croswell, Mich. They will make their home in Painesville. Mrs. Biggervwishes to thank the pupils and teachers who so beautifully decorated her room with flowers on June 3. 13 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. J une It is J une! Let us wander, my friend, you and I, Far, far through the wood and the field, For the open air calls me, and in your sad sigh I see the same feeling revealed. This, the season of freedom and the season of joy, To all creatures happiness brings. Hear the call of the bluebird, the coo of the dove, His sweet, simple lovesong each sings. Comes the so-ft dancing sunlight from smiling blue skies, And kisses each tender green leaf 5 And it stirs up the blood and sad spirits rise. The long pent-up school boy finds relief. Let us Hee for a while from the classes of hate To nature, and sing, dance and play. All too soon the great chance will be gone once again. Be happy as long as you may, For in September, the leaves in their brilliant array Will fade and will wither and dieg ' And we must return to our classes of care, Let us wander, my friend, you and I. It is June! Illene G .Logan, '18, I1-l11S1ll Pa, what is a football coach ? The ambulance, I suppose. Mr. Smith- If you put that on your exam paper, you'll get blue right thru' it like that. Said a Sophomore boy to a Freshman girl, I'm like a ship at sea, The exams are near and 1'm afraid That I shall foundered be. The girl replied, I'll be the shore, Where you can rest when your journey's o'er. Silence fell and all was well, For the ship had hugged the shore. 14 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918.

Class Prophecy Since I was again in my own home town, after an ab- sence of fifteen years, I was very much interested in learn- ing about the people I used to know. Thinking that per- haps I could find out where some of my old classmates were and what they were doing by going to the high school, I de- cided to go over one morning. I was anxious to see how the pupils behaved in chapel, but I thought it best to suppress my curiosity because I remembered that past graduates who visited on chapel mornings were sometimes called upon for a speech and since I always felt shaky in the knees when I had to face an audience, I decided I would make sure that it was not chapel morning when I went. The building had been altered, many more rooms having been added to accommodate the large classes. As I wan- dered around the building, looking in the different rooms I thought I should like to see Room 1 again. The cloak room looked as familiar that it seemed almost as if I were again going to high school. I thought I would look in the room and see if it looked as natural as ever, but to my surprise I found a domestic science class in the room. The pies that they were making smelled so good that I thought I would go on into the room. When the teacher came forward to see what I wanted I saw that it was Jennie Wheeler. We were both surprised. Jennie looked very efficient and capable. She told me that all the girls who took domestic science pre- pared food every day to sell at lunch time. When she saw I was so amazed at this she said she would take me around the building and show me other great changes. I wondered how she could leave her class but she soon explained that by saying that they had student government in the high school now. Having satisfied my curiosity concerning the school in general, I went to the principal's ofiice. H egave me a. man- ual, prepared by one of the recent ambitious classes, which contained each class' history and membership from nineteen hundred to the present time. 19 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. I turned through the pages rapidly until I came to the class of '18. After reading the history which was so famil- iar, I turned to the list of members and found the names arranged in alphabetical order. Upon reading there I found that Lloyd Averill is commodore of the South Atlantic squad- ron. I was not surprised for I always expected Lloyd to be a great captain. Ida Armesy's beautiful voice has made her famous. She is now singing in grand opera. Ellsworth Allen owns the largest furniture store in Painesville. Philip Baker is in the real estate business in Cleveland. He has also evolved a new plan to get rich quick. Ava Billington is the music instructress in the Columbus schools. Christina Beswick has made her name famous for she was the originator of the famous Beswick Dresses which every well dressed woman is familiar with. Esther Brown rivals the great Sprotski. She is famous in both Europe and America as an interior decorator. Edward Church is a well known lawyer in New Orleans. He won the famous Mickle case. Elizabeth Chapman teaches modern language at Lake Erie. Esther Casler, Marion Lee, Edna Youmans and Ruby Harrison are all representatives of the Red Cross and are in France at the present time. They are helping to rebuild homes for soldiers and their families. I thought as I read their names that more than likely they Wouldn't come back wearing the title Miss any more. The faculty of Mentor High School has been much im- proved by the addition of Gladys Lowrey and Lucille Cot- trell. Prominent among great settlement workers of Chicago is Evangeline Cummings. Every child on the East Side knows her and calls her The Angel Lady. Gordon Doncaster supervised the building of the Great Bridge across Grand river. He is a well known civil en- gineer. Emily Dunkel likes Her West very much and enjoys 20 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. the ranch life. Her husband owns a large ranch in Mon- tana. Hellen Gilmore, a noted elocutionist, is living in Cleve- land. Abraham Greenfield owns one of the largest stores in New 'York City. He didn't think that he was making enough money selling alarm clocks. Dorothy Hull is matron of St. Luke's Hospital and she fills her place very well. Beatrice Hisey is a society leader in Youngstown. Her name is very prominent in the society column of The Youngstown Telegram. A Merton Henricle is one of Painesville's leading business men. He has a Fish Market where Crofoot's Market used to be located. Augusta Logan, Treva Neiel, and Dorothy Eddy, I found, are all competent stenographers. Augusta works in a large office in St. Louis, while Treva and Dorothy both Work in Philadelphia. Stanton Jones is the representative from this district to the state legislature. He has put forward some reform bills that have astonished the whole state by their completeness. He is a great booster of Lake County. ' Illene Logan writes short stories and photoplays when her time is not taken by admiring readers. As president of the Verisafe Insurance Company, Victor Kerr is very successful. Lenora Logan teaches physical training at Ohio State. She uses the new Truman method which is very efficient. h John Mather owns a nursery in Mentor. He is nearly as famous as Burbank. , Josephine Marsch is married to a Cleveland 'business man. The atletics at Kenyon have been much improved in late years. The reason for this I think is because Eugene Miller is coach. As a wireless operator Nye Lamphier has become just- ly famous. In his spare time he invented a mouth- 'organ that is a wonder. August Milleris a famous surgeon and doctor, having discovered a cure for cancer. He still finds time to smile. 21 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. Jane Pease is a trained nurse of great repute.

Service Uver There There are many brave men who've gone to fight, For liberty, freedom, and the right And honor rightly should be given, To those who from home ties are riven For service over there. When these men leave, the bands are playing, Flags are fiying, there's no delaying, People cheer, some eyes grow dim, But they'll fight the Hun with all their vim, In service over there. With Red Cross angels and soldier boys, too, The fight won't end until we're thru, Which means we'1l finally beat the Kaiser, Making him sad, but very mu-ch wiser, By service over there. And when these Sammies go over the top, Nothing on earth will make them stop, For they know that while they're in the fight, Their own home folks are making things right, By their service over there. For Liberty Bonds are selling fine, Thrift Stamps following along in line, And campaigns many are going forth, In the East, the West, the South and North, For service over there. There's heaps to be done, but we're right in To beat the I-Iuns, we're bound to win, When all our Sammies get over there, Oh, William Hohenzollern do beware! Of our worthy service over there.

The other night, while fast asleep, I dreamed the funniest thing, That I was Prime Minister, to A wealthy foreign king. Now in this old king's harbor ' Were ships from every clime, And the king very kindly said, Whichever I wanted was mine. So I went to look them over, I didn't know which to choose, On one I might a fortune make, On another a fortune lose. But one that struck my fancy Had sails of black and red. And what seemed to me stranger still Was a foot ball figure head. I liked the ship so very much, I went abroad to stay. I sent the king a telegram And said, I am on my way. Thanks very much for the vessel, I chose 'The P. H. S.' I looked the others over, But I liked this one the best. A Senior. Iilllill Mrs. Bigger freadingy- 'He heard a hoarse flapping overhead' What kind of a bird is a hoarse? Miss Wyman- What happens first in a drama, A. Billington-- Well, in a drama of the stage, the cur- tain rises but in a drama of love, the curtain is lowered. 29 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. Who is this man so big and tall? The stone Wall of our foot ball team Who labor unions argued long. His head you never fail to see Above the rest by several feet. He is the speaker for our class. Who is this noted humorist So very funny, yet so Wise? There's always E upon his card. Tho' studying he's never seen, Even the Freshies know him well. Our magazine by him is run. Who is this lad so- jolly good? He is our fine athletic star. Who plays all games with equal zeal Yet always has his joke and fun. In baseball, football, basketball, He stars in each. But on the track- There's where all others he excels I'm sure you all know who he is, So I'll not mention any names. Who is this nice and pleasant man, Revered and loved by all the school? He of the foot ball team was cap. In basket ball, debate and track He helped to lick all rival schools, But now he's gone to lick the Hun, - He is our honored president. Who is this maid so fair and good? With Painesville spirit she's right there She gets high marks in all her work, But at the piano she excels. Have you by now guessed who she is? Our president pro tem is she. 30 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. Who is this man so tall and stern Who's always busy as can be? In foot ball and in basket ball He played his best to help the school. He also got these ads, you see, He is the treasurer for our class. lljllll L. Averill-How would you like to have a pet monkey ? E. Brown- Oh, Lloyd, this is so sudden. G. Doncaster- Doctor, will you give me something for my head? Doctor- I wouldn't take it as a gift. L. Reiel-fIn A Eng.D After Shakespeare married he began to write tragedies. Mrs. Gilbert- Give me a simple sentence. M. Trumann- Thirty days. Why did you break your engagement with that school teacher ? A If I failed to show up at her house every evening she expected me to bring a written excuse signed by my moth- YI er. L. Bissel- Mr, Smith has a Stetson. F. Smith- I thought he ha da Ford. L. Aldrich fin B Englishj - She awoke to fmd that she was the poor fish. 31 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. Studg When I sit down to study to get my day's work done, And feel the heat and cheerfulness imparted by the sun, To study is beyond me, for I can't do it at all, I sit there boldly wishing something would to me befall, So I wouldn't have to study-I'd just know it all. But the more I sit there wishing, the more it doesn't come, And I just get less capable--my brains are getting numb. Concentration! Alas, it seemed against my will, I tried, but I just couldn't manage to keep still, So during the hot, long hours I just sit there and suppose I always will. S. Jones, '18. ll-illllu1vll Oh, teachers' eyes are sharp to see And teachers' ears to hearing, And any evening after school, They'll lend an hour of cheering. If, by chance, on William Tell You couldn't spend a minute In hunting out constructions And never once looked in it. Or perhaps that little study room So peaceful and soquiet, Wouldn't let you get your lesson Tho you wanted so to try it. Perhaps you got a yellow slip So kindly sent to you. Or perhaps an invitation For a private interview. Oh, teachers' minds are quick to know When we don't have our lesson, But we usually get them later I.n an after school-hours session. Ruby Harrison, '18, 32 V THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918. Here's to the days that I hold dear, Here's to the class eighteen, Here's to the colors I proudly wear, Here's to the White and Green, Here's to the years that gave me friends True as the stars above. Here's to the future, may it be bright, Here's to the school I love. Oh! Painesville High, dear Painesville High, To you we'll ever be true 5 Our love will last as in the past, We wish success to you. Oh! Painesville High, dear Painesville High, To you we'll e'er be true Our love will last as in the pase, We wish success to you. Esther Brown nillllll I went into the garden, I wandered o'er the land, The moon was shining brightly, I held her little-shawl. Yes, I held her little shawl, fHow fast the evening fiiesj 3 We spoke in tones of love, I gazed into her-lunch basket. I gazed into her lunch basket, I wished I had a taste. Here sat my lovely darling, My arm around her-umbrella. Embracing her umbrella, This charming little miss, Her eyes were full of mischief, I shyly stole a-sandwich. 33 THE ANVIL, JUNE, 1918.
