?EMSC. HHLILSDAJLT SCCHKMDL 1929 N a Country Day School where so many of a girls waking hours are spent, it is inevitable that one particular room grows to be the heart of the schooli In the minds of some of us it may be the assembly, where we meet for service, plays, lectures, music; of others perhaps, the class room of a favorite subject, the gymnasium where a certain game was won; or the place where teachers and girls share their common living day after day. I think that Mrs. David B. Gambie had this laSt idea in mind, as the center of a Country Day School, when she offered to give the dining room wing to Hillsdale School. It is there that a very real part of our community living goes on, from our simple grace, spoken by teachers and girls together, to the Class singing and speeches that make the walls ring with enthusiasm and good feeling. The dining room with its cheery fireplace is growing to be more like iiThe Commons of old English colleges. It is there that the younger girls serve, that the mothers come to help, that Seniors assist in the condudt of the tables, that Stewards plan sittings, and that guests are greeted as luncheon speakers and are taken into the school family by singing and applause. A rousing welcome is given to the old girls who come back here to tell us of their new adventures. How charadteristic that this room should be given by Mrs. Gamble, who cared so much for the friendly living that must be the basis of school loyalty and successful work. She loved to walk softly down the corridors during the school day, slipping gently into a class for a few moments, sitting at a study desk, a Library table, watching the sports through the glass door. She became a genuine part of the school through such quiet participation that girls involuntarily smiled at her in the halls and never thought of her as a visitor in the class rooms. No charter member can forget the day when she was our first guest in the dining room and told us, with her kindly humor, of the unexpecfted great applause she received in China, when she addressed girls there, saying, iiI have no daughters, only three sons. We hope that we made her feel at that time, that she had seventy daughters, as each girl, filing by in a long procession, took her hand in gratitude and love As the years go on, how the numbers of daughters will increasevnot only that first seventy, but many, many more children iishall rise up to call her blessed! Mt T. Page Two THE girls who met as strangers 0n the tam: day at Hillsdale found their partnership in a new ven' ture to be a bond between them, and formed many firm ties; yet the friend we shall remember longest is Mrs. David B. Gamble. She was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan, on June l, 1855 Her father, Reverend William S. Huggins, Was a Presbyterian minister. When she had gradue ated from High School she attended Smith College. In 1882 she married Mr. David B. Gamble and moved to Cincinnati where she lived until her death. It was in this city and in California, where she spent her last twenty winters, that she showed her interest in education. She was inetrumental in starting the kindergartens in public schools, and was the firs : woman to be a trugtee of Occidental College in Los Angeles. Perhaps this experience is one of the reasons why she was so adtive in solving the prob lems of Hillsdale during its firs't year. The gift of the beautiful dining room wing which we pomt to with such pride was only one of the many marks of her friendship. She seemed a part of the school, and we all regarded her as one of us. I think it was the spirit of helpfulness of which we were aware when; ever we saw her that moSt endeared her to us. Year by year, as the hrSt students of Hillsdale graduate and new girls enter, the memory of this friend will become one of the most treasured tradir tions of the school, and an important test of a Hilly dale girls love for her Alma Mater will be the sincerity with which she tries to live up to the Standard Mrs. Gamble has set for us. 33 3k :3: 5?- :k 5'; Class eight has :ftarted a fund to which all classes are eager to add, so that a fitting memorial may be placed over the hreplace in the dining room, which will centralize and typify the spirit of Mrs. Gamble to all the girls, old and new, of Hillsdale School. w w Page Three To MISS SMALL In appreciation of her $eadfa$tness and cooperation the Seniors affectionately dedicate this Annual. $3 Page Five Page Six EDITORIALS THE other night I stood on a hill overlooking Cincinnati. The city lay below, a wilder! ness of lights, and from it rose a great hum of activity interspersed with the sharp clang of street cars. Within a few centuries man has built many such cities out of a wild country. To do this he needed physical strength and a farzseeing mind. Today we need those same attributes to carry on his work. The trustees of Hillsdale must have had some such thought when they organized this schOOI. It was built in the midSt of beautiful surroundings outside the city, where health is ensured by the clean country air. A faculty well equipped to prepare us for college was chosen. Here several hours a day are spent in outzofedoor adtivities, which leave us with clear thoughts and glowing bodies, ready to tackle our lessons. It is true that we at Hillsdale study the same things offered by other secondary schools, but there is a difference in the way they are approached Every teacher has breathed life into her subject. Science is a new country to explore; foreign languages are the index to an understanding of foreign people; history is a vast drama unfolding before our eyes; English is a hand which leads us to great characters and great events; mathematics shows us the beauty of logic; art is an outlet for creative ability; and music introduces us to the thoughts that lie behind notes and scales. So, while we are enjoying the accomplishments of other men, we are preparing to build new cities and to make new dreams come true. H. B. Two years ago this June, those who came out to see the site where Hillsdale was to be, saw nothing but a rough, weedtcovered plot. Then workmen came, and labor, iug hard and well under the diredtion of competent people, produced an almost finished building, in less than four months. Class rooms, gym and laboratory were furnished with essentials and then, to make our school more livable and homelike, different indie viduals gave gifts. The surrounding gr0unds were also made more lovely with trees and shrubbery. This year further steps were taken, and the result was that a wellaequipped laboratory and an attractive dormitory were added to Hillsdale. But this is only the shell. It is for us, the girls, to build the soulrthe standards and traditions, and in doing this, to add each year, as the gifts were added, something which will prove our success as workers at the task of completing the whole.

BOOKMAN VicerPresidem, Senior Class Secretary, Student Council EditoriwChief, nTelescope Little is done in any organizatien in the school with out the untiring help of Helen. As secretary of the Student Council she has assisted in representing her class and in giving her excellent ideas to the governing body of the school. All the work on the Annual has been done under her careful supervision. Her many contributions to both Hill Breezes and the Tale scope show her unusual ability in writing as well as her very keen sense of humor. ELLEN B. FOOT Editor'in'Chief, Hill Bvreezesn Advisory Board, Telescopen Athletic Association In her quiet, unaswming way, Ellen has lent much to the activities of the school, She has shown her ability not only as a poet, but as an organizer and manager in her office of Editorvin-Chief of uHill Breezes. She has also been indispensable to Miss Boynton in helping With the Seventh Grade. Ellen may readily be depended on to do any job cheerfully, prornptly and welL e Page Twelve 95?; LOUISE KATRINA FOOT Class President, 1928 Music Committee Advisory Board, Telcscopf Business Manager of $hHiU Breezeshw Louise not only takes an active part in 211E the school activities; she is also a pleasant companion and a loyal friend. Vivacious, pretty and thoughtful, she is always in demand. Her violin playing makes us proud of her, for she is an expert musician, and com tributes in this way to many of our celebrations. CHARLOTTE FREIBERG Athletic Editor of the EhTelescope Charlotte, graceful and dignified, has ably done her share on the ssTelescope Board. Besides exercising the duties of her own oche she has given generousiy of her decided artigtic ability. The school seal is of her design, as are other evidences around and con' nedted with the school. She has also contributed largely to the class and school songs. 3: Page Thirteen MARGARET LOUISE FRIEDLANDER Business Manager of the llTelescope Song Leader Dining Room Steward When Peggy rejoined her classmates late last fall she immediately entered into the projects afoot. Her executive ability is unusual, and the business depart? ment of the Annual, the school singing and the dining room lines owe their snap to her manage ment She has a reputation for telling good jokes, and for many years to come Hillsdale will remember her sweet personality. ANN HAYDOCK Art Editor of the Telescope Sweet, pretty and attradtiveethatls Dudie. She is everybody's friend. She thinks no task too hard if it will please one of her classmates. The drawings for the Annual Were the first contributions to be com, pleted, and Dudie has added her own accomplish; ments to this material. One would have to work hard to equal her artistic prowess. We feel that she is on the way to great achievement. Eka Page Fourteen ggv SARALEE KINNEY Chairman, Needle Work Guild Advisory Board, hiTelescopeh Skinneyn would be a valuable asset to any group. Although a newcomer this year, she has proved her ability and good will. She always has a friendly grin anci a good joke. She made a snappy sideacenter on the Senior basket ball team, and wrote many clever articles for the Annual. Who could say more? KATHERINE LEBLOND President, Student Council President, Senior Class hTelescope Board Pmsidcnt, Athletic Association, 1928 Captain, Senior Basket Ball Team Ma'rshal, 1928 Who can think of the Senior Class without Kay?! Her quiet dignity and even temper have been ever present in the problems which she has met as president of the Senior Ciass and of the Student Council. Her important oHice of President Of the Athletic Asso' ciation, as a Junior, had to be given up this year because of her other duties. She embodies the spirit of Hillsdale and has set a high standard for 19305 president. Page Fifteen ANN SCOFIELD Calendar Editor, kETelescope Library Committee Ann has made a place for herself in the hearts of Hillsdale girls in her modest and gentle way. She has ably taken her place as a Senior and has performed her duties on the hTelescope Board and on the Library Committee diligently and industriously. She alone has had to uphold the honor and dignity of the Senior CEass at Hill Manor. We only wish Ann had been with us for more than one year. JANE WINDISCH Humor Editor, hhTelescope Group Leader Lagt, but by no means least, is Jane. She is witty, humorous, and good'natured, and is Well qualified for her office as Humor Editor of the i'Telescopefj Her ability always to see the funny side of things under trying circumstances has done much for the Senior Class as well as for the School.

The plaudits they received, the curtain calls Resounding, shook the mighty Hillsdale's walls. The critics say its really quite agrounding Such undreamt talent in one class abounding. At basket ball they bravely took the floor And fought like very lions for the score. Twice vanquished, yet they twice victorious rose!

But their ardor was slightly dampened when the worldlyrwise Seniors showed them what babies they were by issuing a mandate commanding them to wear caps and bibs! Howaver, Freshmen cant be downed. After eating soap and being dragged over prickly hillsides, they emerged from the trials with fortitude of spirit and smiling faces. The year is a long record of their achievements, and they hope to carry their spirit and ability on through their remaining years at Hillsdale. Ssm mi!

HELEN BOOKMAN, 29 Page Twenty-four HQ thinnie the Pooh11 at Hillsdale School tWith Apologies to A. A. Milney INNIE the Pooh, and Piglet, and Christopher Robbin stood outside looking. - Lookz ing with great intereSt at a large one-Story building with htHillsdale Schoolh written over the doorway. hNow, Poohf said Christopher, udoxft forget your company manners? hLBut, Christopherfs said Pooh, st1 have that jumping rolling feeling in my stomach, like I was just Coming off of a Rolly coaster. You know not the feeling that you have on the coaster, but just after you get off. ttWell, you know that that feeling does not laSt long, so brace up. You are only visiting anyway, Are you with us, PigletW hYees, said Piglet in a very tiny voice, and they went in. Piglet hid behind Pooh, and Pooh hid behind Christopher, who Stepped boldly up to the person who greeted them. hTm Christopher Robbin, he said, Hand these are my friends: PoohnBear and Piglet. WevahtjuSt wanted to come and Visit because we heard that this was the very niceSt school that there was, and we thought maybe if we liked it-weH, could we look around? h tLCertainly, replied the lady. hPigletf said Pooh, hthat lady is nice, and my funny feeling is all gone now? hNow this is the gymnasiumf the nice lady explained. hThey are having cor! rectives today? uWhat are CORRECTITIVESESW asked Pooh. hThey are things that correct? replied Christopher knowingly, uOh, I see,u said Pooh, but he really didntt see at all, so he decided to try them, and see what happened after he had done one. So he lay down on the floor and wiggled his toes the way the girls in the gym were doing. After twenty wiggles on each toe he got up expecting to feel entirely different, but he was disappointed to End that everything fgcgust the same, and also that Christopher Robbin was giving him a DONtT DO THAT K. They then walked down a very long corridor and looked in rooms to see a lot of girls sitting at tables trying hard to look at a lady sitting at a big desk. Finally they came to $955 P002 Twenty-fiue 939 E43 an awfully funny looking room. This they were told was the laboratory. Pooh didnt know what a laboratory was, but Piglet conlided that he didnlt know either, so Pooh didn't feel so badly then. A little lady in a big black apron came up and started to show them around. They came to a big twisty looking affair which the lady in the big black apron said was the apparatus for making Potassium Permanginate. lll wonder if Owl would know what PERSASSIUM POMATINGATE was? put in Piglet. LLWelll have to ask himfl All of a sudden they heard an awful scream, and they saw Pooh run around the room as if a bee had stung him, yelling, lWWATER ! cWN'ATER ! Elef'zAx l ER l! llWhat ever is the matter, Pooth said Christopher, very embarrassed and shocked at the way he was behaving. Several people came running in with water and after Pooh had had six glasses of it he calmed down enough to tell what had happened. llWell, he said feebly, llI saw a whole lot of jars in that cupboard over there, and they looked so much like my honey jars that I thought I would try them and see. I cert tainly never tasted honey that burned your mouth like that. I donlt think that I like LATABRORIES very much either. After that experience Christopher Robbin thought that it was best to leave the llLatabrory immediately, and they walked out into the corridors. After they had gone a little farther Pooh smelt something. The more he smelled the better he liked it, until he forgot all about the bad honey he had eaten, and asked llHow soon is luncth The nice lady said that it wasn t for another hour, but she thought that she could arrange to have a special eleven olclock meal served. Pooh was too excited at the pros; pedt of eating to even say THANKIYOU, but Christopher Robbin didnlt forget, so that made it all right They came out of the dining room a half hour later with their hands full of cookies, and their stomachs full of chocolate pudding, and Pooh said that he thought he would like to come to this school, and he would tell Eeyore, and Tigger, and Kanga, and R00 all about the chocolate puddings, and he thought maybe they would all want to go to school, too.

The ma$ter ceased, the silence Was restored. Not one in all that bright assembled throng But searched his inmost heart for friendly deed This man had doneeand found there nought but wrong. 61$?

The man fell still in shame. 11. Then spoke the beggareand his voice rang clear, Like to the muzzein's evening call to prayer, HThen goigo from our sight and find your friend, And then return and face us, if you dare! 12. The master moved away, his head hung low, Followed by taunts he mounted lowly beast, Set off to search a friend through all the world, From greatest of all creatures to the least. 13. A leper, first he met upon his way, And offered him his blazing jewelled ring. The leper shuddered, drew away aghast, And said, ELNay, friendship is a sacred thing. 14. A lordly prince next was his Chance to meet And bowing asked for blessed friendshiph boon; The answer, fraught with hate HYou killed my son, Think you his father has forgot so soon? 15. And so, through all the world he went his way, Alone and friendless, seeking still a friend, Until at last, a humbled suppliant thing, He reached his destinyethe worldls far end. 16. There, in a ring of lire, the Story tells, Guarded by dragons, each with eight heads armed, A princess slept, the fairest of the fair, To this cruel fate by an enchanter charmed. 17. He gazed upon that lovely sleeping face, And Straightway all his purpose was forgot. His one great thought became to loose her bonds; His quest for friendshipeNay, that mattered not. 18.

ELLEN B, FOOT, 229 The Green Car ETHODICALLY and carefully John Warren arranged the papers in the file. An, other day was overehow long it had seemed! It was hard work, hard on the eyes and hard on the patience, yet Johnts systematic soul delighted in it. He was one of the meanest stenographers in a large iirm, yet he exulted in his position. John Warren glanced over his shoulder at the new stenographer. She was trying to carry some heavy files to the next case. John ran to her side and said awkwardly, uMay I help you Miss, Miss e - - ?h iiHallowayf she finished rather haughtily as she handed him the fiies. John arranged them carefully in the case and then followed her back to her desk. As he Stood watching her, ill at ease, he wondered if she liked this dull, dreary office. She looked like a gay butterfly unsuited for these surroundings. Shyly he asked, You havent been here long, Miss Halloway, how do you like it? iiVery well, thank youf she replied with faint disdain. john Warren raised his eyebrows. hAre you going to be here long? he ventured.

Having powdered her nose and adjugted her hat she wrapped her coat around her and strolled nonchalantly out of the doori John looked out after her. She had shed her dignity and was hurrying for the elevator. John took the next available one. She crossed the hall of the building and out of the door. John followed her quietly. On reaching the out of doors she turned into the alley at the left. Then running quickly regardless of her calm unrqued dignity she entered the cheap boarding house which faced the alley. John turned back. Laughing softly he got into the big green car. But as he sank back into the soft upholstery he sighed whimsically. hHome, Baker, said John Warren rather sadly.

Mrs. Ann Atomy has come on from La Grange, 111., to be present at the festivities given in honor of Miss Friedlanderis engagement. She has recently returned from the Continent where she has been purchasing the latest in Parisian gowns for Marshallr Fields. Mrs. Atomy's arrival is of great interest to many as she endeared herself to a large group during her school years here. It is a matter of much rejoicing among her multi' tudinous Cincinnati admirers that Mrs. Helen Fuhr Bookman Hatdlithin has been awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her fascinating, irresistible, enchantingly contagious volume of poetry entitled the Perfect Purple Passion. News has been received by her many friends that Mrs. Kay Oh has returned from the Olympic Games, where she was an active participant. Her interesting legs have carried her to the world's records in the broadljump, high'jump, lOOIyard dash, hurdle race, and many others. Now this delightful Ohioan is returning to her lovely farm situated among the green hills of Vermont, where she raises her famous Irish setters. Mrs. Anne Minusar, nee Anne Haydock, one of Cincinnati's most charming hostesses will entertain a. little coterie of her friends on Monday next. Among the happily honored guests will be Jan Garber and his orchestra.

Mrs. Saralee Blahzee has just arrived in Cincin' nati, from Hollywood, on her way to New York where she has been engaged to do a set for a forth- coming musical review. Mrs. Blahzee's modern! istic stage settings are much in demand by Metro politan producers. Mrs. Ouisie Fiddle is now making a concert tour in Europe, including in her program several of her own compositions. She is being very much enter, tained en route, having been the guest of honor at a ball given by the Crown Prince of Esthonia. Mrs. Jane Exterfatt has left town to try to place her son, Pound Exterfatt, Jr., known among his friends as L. Bf, in a Nursery School. In her recent attempts to enter him in a similar school here he was rejected because the head nurse feared that there would not be ample place for him on account of his unusual size.

Both teams were good ones, and the first game between them had gone to the Sophomores, the second to the Juniors. The whole school was admitted to the Hnal conflict. We expecfted it to be close, but had not anticipated such breathtaking plays. iiTimers readyeScorers readyTlithen the whistle! A Sophomore forward made the hrst basket, but the Juniors soon tied the score, and the neckzandlneck race began. Neither team was ahead for long. The ball passed over the floor in such quick plays that it was hard for a spectator to follow it. At the half the Sophomores led, and we settled dowu to systematic cheering while the players regted from their exertions. Almost before we had recovered our composure the game began again. There was no noise in the side lines. The sound of running feet and of the ball hitting the back board before it fell into the basket, punctuated by the referees whistle, was emphasized by the silence of the audience, Just before the game was over the Juniors made the decisive basket, and the score 1644 gave them the championship. WNM The Gym Demonstration NE of the big events of the Hillsdale year is the Gym Demonstration. It is given in the evening, and this year it took the form of a contest between the Upper and Lower Schools. Everyone takes part, whether or not she is a star athlete. This year the demonstration consisted of exercises, clogging, kickball, basket ball, and tumbling. The exercises were hard, but we outdid ourselves, and I believe everyone found herself succeeding in at leaSt one that she had failed in before. The clogging was very effective, and few mistakes were made, while the ball games were among the most exciting we have ever had. As for the tumbling, Hiilsdale is noted for its tumblers, and the pyramids and stunts were unusually good. Gasps of amazement from the audience gave proof of this. One of the numbers of the demonstration was the singing of class and school songs. It was the first occasion we had had to sing our Alma Mater in public, and we were very proud of it. When all the stunts were over the judges announced that the Upper School was the winner, and it will have its name on the shield which Mr. Gamble has presented to us.

The teachers borrowed bloomers from every one, tried them all on, then made their choices. JuSt before the fmal bell, our revered faculty made a general exit into the depths of the gym. When we followed them in a mad rush after the bell had rung, there was no sign of them. Then a whistle sounded, and, Miss Boynton leading, they marched into the gym. How charming they looked! Each was modestly attired in a most modish manner tat leaf: I suppose it was modish in the Gay Ninetiesl. Colorful skirts with delightful waiSts adorned their figures, and Miss Wallaceis head was encased in a large, black hat. They marched once around the gym, then at a word from Miss Boynton they lined up for exercises. Though these were quite Strenuous and therefore tiring, they put the participants in good form for the ensuing game. They were most graceful, and con, siSted of armaraisingeandrlowering and jawlimbering, done with the aid of gum which was especially chosen by Miss Wallace for its elasticity. Only two defecfts marred the perfedh'on Of these physical exertions. One young lady raised her hand and asked an em barrassing quegtion. Miss Boyntorl cleverly covered this up with the hrm answer, .KNO, not nowfl An other shamelessly showed her ankle. We were shocked, but did our best not to show it. When the exercises were over, and the teachers had donned gym co:ftumes, the longeawaited basket' ball game between the faculty and a team comprised of juniors and Sophomores began. Mlle condudted the cheering. The game itself was close and exciting. The guards were especially good, and the forwards did double duty, both missing the basket and cleaning the floorl The ball was the only thing that did not enter into the spirit of the game. It refused to go where it was thrown. The only nice thing it dfd was to bounce back onto the floor when it had left it for reasons of its own. When the final whistle blew we hreathlessly awaited the announcing of the score. The Junior! Sophomore team had won. They were glad they had challenged the faculty. - H.
