' i ' w w f l H ' Tiiy ' S BA) TT V ck i m! ' f 9 o (: 2 5 . 900 W s er street ' TO Box ?270 fm Uz ,M, ,N 46801-2270 FOREWORD Now that we are finishing some of the happiest days of our lives, we stand alone on the obscure pathway of life. Our books, theories, and teachers no longer support us; we tremble in the stormy atmosphere, fearful lest we should take the wrong path. But we know their teaching has not been in vain. As the new day dawns, we take heart and push foreward, resolving to do some worthy deed before the setting of life ' s sun. Then in its sinking light may this book be a treasure to which we may come to recall and live again our happy High School Days. DEDICATION In appreciation of his constant efforts put forth in the promotion of the oratorical work, of the orchestra, of the School World, and of this fourteenth volume of the Modulus, we, the Senior Class of 1925, de- dicate this Annual to McCabe Day. ii PblT RS A acRfce Hf f ( iE:R THE:Rlf e wscr JOINT EDITORS.

To you, our boys, we ' ll sing to-day Our little song and cheer, We ' ll march right on to victory And make our pathway clear. Cheering you to win the game. Come on, and show them how; So let ' s put spirit in the fight, And cheer for them right now. Chorus. Rah, rah, rah, rah-rah, rah, rah, rah; Our cheers for the H. H. S. It ' s the one school, and its the dearest — The school we love the best. So, then, let us pep up ; Come on, boys, let ' s win For the best, best school in all the nation- Our cheers for the H. H. S. II Let us be loyal sons and true. And triumph in life ' s game; Uphold the fame of H. H. S.— Add glory to her name. When wider fields present their view And harder tasks appear. Let Red and Black shine forth anew. Our happy course to steer. Ill We stand for knowledge, truth, and power, Her glorious name to bless; May no dark stain, not for an hour. Make her great honor less. May noble sons and daughters true Make history ' s pages shine. And Red and Black in brighest hue With memory intertwine. — Pauline Broughton ' 23. m m ' mmmmm MOTTO To Strive, to Seek, to Find, and Not to Yield. COLORS Pink and Lavender.

President Gladys Pinkerton Vice-President Eugene Frost Secretary Lela Reeb Treasurer Margaret Streseman Faculty Advisor Miss Louise Hamer The Junior Class of 1924-25 organized early this year. Election of officers took place during the first week of October, and plans were drafted for earning money to finance the annual Junior-Senior Reception. The first party of the year was a weiner-roast held at Elmwood Park, with forty members of the class enjoying a real out-door party. On Wednesday night, November 26, the Junior Class entertained the members of the football team at a party in the gymnasium. More than seventy-five Juniors and their guests were present. With the first football gcime of the season, the Juniors were on hand selling pop, Eskimo Pies, and candy. Success in this venture prompted the continued sale of candy, and a booth was installed on the second floor of the High School, where each evening the Juniors reaped profits. Basketball games also provided many customers for their wares. On January 12, the Coffer-Miller Players were secured to present Molieres ' play, The Imaginary Invalid. Matinee and night performances of this excellent production were given. The next project sponsored by the class was a program given by Miss Faye Fergu- son, a talented pianist. Inclement weather and the inactivity of the class members in the matter of ticket selling resulted in a small audience. The program presented by Miss Ferguson was of unusual merit and well received. The District Basket Ball Tournament and the District Commercial Contest provided other means of securing revenue. Check rooms and candy booths featured. The Junior-Senior Reception committee elected was as follows: Joe Briggs, chair- man; Mary Ehresman, Kathryn Rosenberry, and Caroline Rose Redrup. This com- mittee with the class advisor. Miss Hamer, extended their best efforts in making it one of the most delightful receptions ever given. Lela Reeb 26. JUNIORS Allen. Cecil Allen, Dessie Allman, Richard Ambler, Mary Andrews.

President Dick Steele Vice-President Wilma Potts Secretary ■ . . . Josephine Lewis Treasurer Helen Fisher Faculty Advisor Miss Louise Ewing There are bonds of ail sorts in this world of ours. Ties of friendship and fetters of flowers — But never a bond could ever surpass The ties of love of this Sophomore class! We have in our ranks athletes, musicians, debators, and orators, all of whom do credit to Huntington High School. A great deal of interest and enthusiasm has been aroused over basketball in this community the past year. Much of this was due to the activities and ability of the fam- ous, all-round star, Glenn Hummer, who excites the admiration of all basketball fans. Orval Butts and Marvin Coble have also shown marked ability as players on our second team. It is evidenced from their performances that they have exceptional ad- vantages for future honors. Just watch them the next two years. What would life be without music? What would the H. H. S. band and orchestra be without the rare ability of Lytle Freehafer, Bill Logic, Jeanette McClintoch, Gordon Myers, James Oakley, Melvin Piepenbrink, Wilma Potts, Guy Rinebolt, Donald Shid- ler, Marion VanPelt, and Dale Weaver. Aside from athletic and musical qualities, oratorical talent is not lacking. As one of our number, Lytle Freehafer deserves commendation for his ability as a debater. He engaged in debates with teams from Central High School, at Fort Wayne, and South Side, of Fort Wayne, in the High School library. Lytle displayed unusual talent m the latter of these. Colleen Utter brings us additional honor in that she so successfully won the local and county contests of the State Latin contests, and third place in the District Contest held at Peru March 28. The only social event this year was a Valentine Party held in the club rooms on February 14. In all, it would be difficult to find members of any class more talented, more ener- getic, more honest, or more promising than those of the Sophomore Class. Josephine Lewis ' 27.

The Freshman Class this year started out with a lot of pep and ginger. After get- ting accustomed in the daily routine of High School, and finding our way about, we have decided that we are a small part of the H. H. S. student body. Both the girls and boys made a good showing in basketball. The Sunshine Girls gave a reception for the Freshman girls on January 30 in the club rooms of the High School. A special program, music, and games furnished enter- tainment during the evening. During the entire season our class proved to have everlasting interest in athletics. The majority of us came to nearly every game and cheered until we were hoarse. The second division of the Freshman Class, which entered in January helped in making the Freshmen lead by holding a high standing on the honor roll. Although the history of our class does not contain many hair-raising events nor a brilliant record at present, we are preparing for higher and better things during our future years.

Helen RCTIVITIES wmmmm: :m§mmmm THE NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY. Believing that the development of character and leadership should be the aim of a school, as v eW as scholarship, a group of men in 1919 laid plans for a National Honor Society. Two years later a National Constitution was adopted. The constitution of the National Society gives character, leadership, scholarship, and service as the qualifications for members. TTie purpose of the Honor Society is to give recognition to those students who are scholars and leaders. It also offers a goal for the students to strive for, and is an in- centive toward the developing of those essential virtues that one must have if he is to be of service to society. Fifteen per cent of each graduating class is eligible for membership, five per cent being elected during their Junior year and ten per cent in their Senior year. The members of the society who will graduate in ' 25 are: Thyra Ade Kathryn Stults Eldon Bucher Everett Goshorn Jan e Barnhise!

The Student Council of Huntington High School was organized in September, 1924. From each sponsor group one member was elected to act as a representative for that particular group. There are approximately thirty groups represented. The Student Council originated through the school faculty. Following the faculty meeting the plan was explained to the student body by Mr. Byers in the auditorium. Here it was voted on and accepted by the students. The purpose of the Student Council, and student participation in School Govern- ment, is to take part in any conditions that exist in the school that need attention. By having the representatives from the groups, each and every student may have his own desire carried out or discussed by the Student Council. They may hand their wisK to the secretary in written form. Each student in this way has an equal right. Jane Barnhisel was appointed secretary by Mr. Byers, who is presiding officer. The monitor system was the biggest accomplishment undertaken. It has proved to be a great success owing to the cooperation of the students. Minor problems also were taken into consideration and successfully carried out. These will be added to as the system progresses. The student body has accepted its new responsibilities and honors in the best of spirit and cooperation. It feels, as it should, that it represents the Democracy of Hunt- ington High School. The students help to make the laws they are asked to obey. Jane Barnhisel, ' 25. ARISTOS SOCIETY. OFFICERS. President Mary Evelyn Swihart Vice-President Neil Kindy Secretary-Treasurer Mildred Tillman Critics Miss Rupert and Miss Dunathan Motto: Perfection Through Expression. The Aristos Society was organized in 1924. Mr. Day was chosen faculty advisor, but due to other duties, he was unable to be with us this year. The Society then chose Miss Rupert and Miss Dunathan, who have given us faithful and splendid service, kind- ness and cooperation, which we appreciate very much. The purpose of this Society is threefold: first, to promote; second, to apply; and third, to appreciate the varied interests of Huntington High School. The meetings are entertaining and instructive. Any student may become a member of the organization by complying with the By-Laws. We regret to bid farewell to the Seniors of Aristos, and hope each and every one will find a smooth road in years to come. Although they will not be with us when we organize next year, they will not be forgotten, Mildren lillman, ' 26. SUNSHINE SOCIETY. OFFICERS. President Jane Barnhisel Vice-President Marian Weaver Secretary Caroline Rose Redrup Treasurer Dorothy Sellers Faculty Advisor Miss Cora Altman The Sunshine Society of Huntington High School is an old organization, and be- cause of the good it accomplishes is maintained by many schools. It renders valuable service by getting the girls to join together and push their interests. In order to secure better cooperation four Pathfinders were chosen for each class. These girls use their influence to get every girl to come to meetings and take an interest m affairs, so that the Society may accomplish more. The first work the Society undertook was the selling of celluloid footballs with red and black ribbons attached. These were used as a feature for the Home Coming foot- ball game. A party was given the latter part of January in honor of the incoming Freshmen. The girls were entertained by charades and games, and everyone had a delightful time. Although the Society has been idle at times, it does its good, as all true movements can not help doing. It is with the thought of scattering sunshine, doing their duty when needed, and being a helper in fun and work, that the girls carry on their work. The Society has bright hopes for the future and will do all it can to help Huntington High School in upholding her standards.

President Mary Andrews Vice-President Virginia Reed Corresponding Secretary Mary Kline Recording Secretary-Treasurer Hilda Class Press Reporter Wesley Heiney Faculty Advisor Miss Louise Ewing The Commercial Club renewed its activities after a lapse of a year ' s time. This Society has accomplished a great deal, having paid the expenses of the H. H. S. Commercial teams to the District Contest at Fort Wayne, and the State Contest at Muncie, with a surplus in the treasury. The money was obtained by selling all kinds of commercial supplies used in this department. Due to the efforts of Miss Hamer and Mr. Murray, Huntington was selected as one of the district centers for the commercial contest which was held April 18. Huntington entered six teams, and tTie winning teams went to the State Contest at Muncie held May 1 . The Society held its meetings every two weeks and enjoyed a party once a month. Mary Kline ' 25. THE BACHELOR CLUB Believing that woman is an unnecessary evil, a group of students organized the Bachelor Club this year, in order to protect themselves from this pest. The news spread like wildfire and soon there were a great number of troubled brethren who wished to join the Club. The founders finally decided that the member- ship would be limited to thirteen, as this number would be a great protection against the superstitious sex. As to whether the Club has been successful or not, it is merely necessary to say that it includes star athletes, debaters and the editors-in-chief of both the Modulus and the World. Five of the members are also members of the National Honor Society. Surely this proves that the policy of the Club of undying warfare against the weaker sex is right and only those men who refrain from indulging in matrimony are truly successful in life. The motto of the Club is: Commend a Wedded Life, But Keep Thyself a Bachelor. Wisely and Gay We Are Bachelors.

The name of the paper was chang- ed from The High School World to just The School World. The business staff was under the direction of Mr. Murray the first semester. The editorial staff was supervised by Mr. Day and at the departure of Mr. Murray, he also assumed charge of the business staff. At the beginning of the first semester last fall, the staff for the World was picked. Clyde Buckingham was chosen editor-in-chief; Armond Gammer, managing editor; Ken- neth Mahoney, sports editor; Maurice Smetzer, alumni editor; Caroline Rose Redrup, junior high editor; Thyra Ade, exchange editor; Kenneth Keller, feature editor, and Mary Ehresman, news editor. The reporters were Alice Snider, George Ertzinger, Mil- dred Brahs, and Delsie Johnson. The business staff consisted of the following: Bert Anson, business manager; Mel- ville Kiracofe, advertising manager; Mary Andrews, circulation manager; Arthur Scudder, advertising solicitor; Mabel Fruit, bookkeeper; and Virginia Reed, collector. This new publication endeavored to give all the news of all phases of school life including the general news of the school, sports, news of the alumni, news of other schools through the exchange columns, and feature stories. In addition to this, news of the junior high schools of the city was also published. The publishing of a school paper being a rather new idea, the response of the stu- dents was slow. Due to the splendid support given the paper by the advertisers, how- ever, and through the support of the larger part of the student body, the World continued publication and was not forced to bankruptcy as had been the fate of the school paper hitherto. Special editions were put out home-coming day and educational week. These copies were larger in form than the usual edition. The paper for educational week contained the entire history of the public school system of Huntington and many other facts concerning the schools generally unknown before. The home-coming issue played up the home-coming game with Columbia City and contributed much in making the affair a success. With the advent of journlaism into the high school curriculum the second semester, the work of getting the paper was taken over by the journalism class. The major staff of the paper remained intact, but some of the departments were dropped from lack of support. The alumni news was taken out as were the exchange and junior high sections. The news editor was also relieved of the duties which were taken up by the entire staff. The business staff remained as it was the first semester. The World has improved greatly since last fall in all departments. Even as this is the best annual ever put out by H. H. S., so is the World the best school paper ever published. Thanks can be given to Mr. Day for this and for his untiring efforts in his work on the annual. Next year, it is the hope of those interested in the matter to put out a still better paper for the students. ! D. Armond Gemmer, ' 26. AFFIRMATIVE TEAM James Weber First Speaker Thyra Ade Second Speaker Richard Satterthwaite Third Speaker Betty Beaver Alternate NEGATIVE TEAM Kathryn Stults First Speaker Lytle Freehafer Second Speaker Clyde Buckingham Third Spe_aker Bert Anson Alternate McCabe Day, Coach ORATORY This activity of the High School began this year with the awarding of the Skinner trophy on February 27 to James A. Weber. The trophy was donated by Walter A. Skinner, a graduate of Huntington High School with the class of 1918. He was and is at present very much interested in the promotion of this activity. The three orations, given by James Weber, Clyde Buckingham and Kathryn Stults, were excellent in compo- sition and were delivered very well. The County Discussion Contest was held on March 26. This contest is held annually throughout the state, under the supervision of Indiana University. The local school was represented by Clyde Buckingham, who won second place in the Skinner Trophy Contest, and won the same position in the County Contest on the question of the Child Labor Amendment. Clyde ' s most effective work has always been in extempora- neous rebuttal. His work in this respect gained for him the vote of one judge for first place. The County Constitution Contest followed on April 13, in which James A. Weber represented the Red and Black. After many ties by the judges in making the decision, the first place fell to Marie McCrum of Lancaster Center, the second position to EFdon Johnson of Union Center and the third place to James Weber, who spoke on the subject, My Duty to the Constitution. James Weber is a very able orator and has developed originality in the composition and delivery of his orations. George Ertzinger, ' 26. L ' 3sm THE DISTRICT COMMERCIAL CONTEST The District Commercial Contest was held Saturday, April 18, at Huntington High School. ' The schedule was as follows : 9:00 a.m. — Meeting of faculty representatives. 9:30 a.m. — Novice typing. 10:00 a. m. — Advanced typing. I 1 :30 a. m. — Penmanship. 1 :00 p. m. — Advanced shorthand. 2 : 00 p. m. — Bookkeeping. Those contesting from here were: Penmanship — Alba Drummond, Dorothea Peters, and Martha Holabird. Beginning Shorthand — Irene Van Pelt, Mildred Brahs, Madalyn Savage, Kathryn Rosenberry, Caroline Redrup, and Helen Jackson. Advanced Shorthand — Martha Biehl, Opal Shipley, Ethel Rankin, Wesley Heiney, Ruth Pauling, and Pauline Peting. Beginning Typewriting — Mildred Brahs, Eugenia Stumms, Margaret Streseman, and Irene Wendell. Advanced Typewriting — Ruth Pauling, Wesley Heiney, Irene Van Pelt, and Martha Holabird. From the twenty-three names listed, fifteen were chosen, making three members to a team. Contestants represented the following towns in this district : Montpelier, Wabash, North Manchester, Marion and Huntington. Usually one thinks only of athletes when it comes to winning honors as state champs, but remember that commercial contestants win great honors, also, if they take state titles. So do not overlook us, but boost commercial work. Martha Holabird, ' 25. O I u CHORUS Music in the High School is often looked upon as a pleasant pastime. While its presence in the High School can be justified, even on this ground, it also has an educa- tional value. When music is correctly taught, nothing in the whole curriculum compares with it for general usefulness. If deeper and more logical thinking is desired, a course in harmony, counterpoint, composition and other studies in the theory of music may be well pitted against mathematics as a means of intellectual deve ' opment. It is true that Music, rightly taught, is the best mind trainer on the list. The chorus classes of 1924 and 1925 have been run on a different schedule from previous years. Classes for the girls are held on Tuesday, and for the boys on Wednes- day and Friday the last half of the third period. On Thursday evening, the sixth period, all of the classes assemble in the auditorium for a general rehearsal. A large chorus has more enthusiasm and is much more inspiring than a smaller one. In the small class, however, the pupils have a better opportunity to read music, but the enthusicism will not run so high. The combination of these two plans has proven most desirable. National Music Week in the City of Huntington was observed from May 3 to May 9. At this time the Huntington High School gave several programs. These programs were presented by the girls and boys of the various chorus classes. The boys during this week furnished music for the business men of the city, while the girls gave entertain- ments for the women ' s clubs. On Friday the entire program was given in the High School auditorium for the public. The class of 1924 and 1925 has completed a successful year with a program at the Baccalaureate services. The selection was a cantata, a musical interpretation of Long- fellow ' s Building of the Ship, by Ira Wilson. The feature was the most successful program of the course and was well given.

This has been made possible under the leadership of M. McCabe Day, whose untiring efforts have placed the orchestra in its present position. One of the biggest accomplishments this year was the division of the orchestra into two groups. Those having more experience hold rehearsals on Fridays, and those having less rehearse on Wednesdays. By this method more progress can be made in producing the desired effect. Some new instruments were purchased this year. They are loaned to pupils who are interested enough to study. When they are able to play they are admitted to the orchestra. The orchestra gave a concert this year in addition to furnishing music at other times. The arrangement of the concert program gave evidence of the varied work carried on in this department. Robert Cline, ' 25. ART Make up your mind to look at some one beautiful thing every day and thus lay up for yourself a store of delightful memories. That is the art creed and those in the art department are endeavoring to live up to it. This department is one with which very few of the High School pupils are acquainted, or if they give it a thought it is only as the little room in the corner where we can sharpen our pencils. You see, they think only of its concrete value, but there is another, an abstract benefit, which each person derives from this modest organization, either directly or indirectly. It has been said there is no greater gift than that of causing others to smile, and this we have been able to do through instructive, yet amusing posters. The art classes this year did not put on an entertainment as heretofore, but have contented themselves with aiding and promoting various enterprises carried on both in our own building and elsewhere. The art room acts as an advertising center for plays, entertainments, etc. We are trying to help Jim keep our lawns in good condition and also to keep our city beautiful by giving a few hints in an attractive way as to what is expected of the loyal school citizen. It is said that something of this kind will remain much longer in the mind of the observer than if he were only told, thus we are merely acting on some one else ' s advice. To enjoy art, one must have an eye for beauty and that eye must be trained to see some beauty in even the most insignificant thing. It is surprising how much this trying to see the beautiful will affect the morality of your standard of living. It is only the dreary, drab and disagreeable things of life which cause unhappiness and if these are disposed of, at least part of them, imagine what a wonderful place this good old world would be. This is only a cursory explanation of what we are trying to do in the art department, so as to improve the morale and bring smilies to the faces of all persons passing through our halls. In all this swift, mad rush of today ' s living we must never forget that the most beautiful and everlasting art was made thousands of years ago, when the Great Creator made the vast out-of-doors to live through the ages and come to us for our pleasure and enjoyment. And though we can never improve upon this masterpiece we, at least, can do our very best and derive the beauty from life, which is no more than due us, if we only look for it. Thus as one writer expresses himself in regard to art and nature: Poems are made by fools like me. But only God can make a tree. Opal D. Shipley, ' 25. KEMPY Kempy, a charming comedy in three acts, was presented with the greatest suc- cess by the Senior Class this year. It was produced under the direction of Mrs. Knowl- ton Kelsey, assisted by an advisory committee consisting of Mr. Byers, Miss Koch, and Mrs. Kelsey, and the following members of the Senior Class: Elizabeth Scudder, Ade- line Eisenhauer, Melvill Kiracofe, Kenneth Mahoney, Eldon Bucher and Hayden Harlow. Wesley Heiney was chosen to take the part of Kempy. The part called for a healthy good-looking boy who was frank and likeable, and Wesley fitted right into the place. Dad Bence, played by Leslie Lahr, won many hearty laughs and cheers from the audience. Leslie brought out so clearly the typical American father that is so common to every person, that he held the hearts of the people from the first to the last of the play. Ma Bence was well played by Florence Whitelock. It is very difficult for a bright, young, and pretty high school girl to transform herself to an old fashioned mother of fifty-five, but Florence took the part exceedingly well. Kate Bence, the enthusiastic daughter with the w l and temper of her father, was very capably played by Kathryn Stults. The ease and dignity of Walter Nevius on the stage fitted him exactly for the part of Duke Merrill. Marjorie Huffman took the part of Ruth, a young, quick-witted, and whimsical girl. Marjorie ' s stature, voice, young appearing face, and beautiful hair contributed greatly to her success. Jane Wade was very ably played by Florence Felton. Florence ' s poise and dignity on the stage was a means of securmg honor for her in acting. Quick of spirit, a good fellow, belongs to the Elks, the Masons, Rotary Club, and votes the straight Republican ticket; that ' s Ben Wade, played by Franklin Flower. Frank- lin didn ' t have much of a chance to show off, but when he was on the stage he played his part to the delight of everyone. Jane Barnhisel, ' 25.

NOT TO THE SWIFT THE CAST Mr. Wilmot (the boss) Murray Van Antwerp Mr. Burton (first assistant) Paul Schroeder Mr. Stead (assistant) Fred Shaw Mr. Stead (assistant) Emerson Smith Grace Foster (stenographer) Maebelle Lehman Mary Blake (stenographer) Virginia Reed Bill (office boy) Wesley Heiney A playlet, Not to the Swift, taking place in a business office and showing the necessity of accuracy as well as speed, was given by students of the commercial depart- ment in the High School auditorium Monday, November 24, 1 924. The scene of the play is in the office of an architect. A speedy stenographer made a mistake in copying the date for some important specifications to be put on file and was discovered almost too late, but was saved by the slow but sure stenographer who worked overtime and was repaid by receiving a promotion. Wesley Heiney, as Bill, the office boy, was a general handy man and a target for the flapper stenographer, but Bill always had a ready reply. Maebelle Lehman, as Grace Foster, was the speedy stenographer and, as Bill said, She had speed, but not much else. Virginia Reed played the part of Mary Blake, who, though slow, was a steady stenographer, willing to learn, and through her extra efforts won for the boss a high award. She was repaid by a trip to Paris as secretary to the boss at a convention. Murray Van Antwerp, as James Wilmot, was the head of the firm and his assistants were Fred Shaw, as Willard Stead, and Paul Schroeder, as James Burton. Emerson Smith, as Mr. Brown, was the typewriter mechanic who kept Miss Foster ' s typewriter in condition for her speed. The play was coached by Theodore Van Antwerp. Virginia Reed, ' 25. lEbttnml We have come to the end of a wonderful year. We sit down on the commencement seats and think over the past days of fun and hard work. We regret that we have failed to make every golden minute count. Life looms up before us as a vast lion ready to pounce on us poor little know-nothings. We have arrayed ourselves in the contraptions of education like Darius Green and his flying machine; but the question is when we meet the cruel biting winds of the world can we fly? Can we fly? Yes, can we fly? Some of us are pessimistic, we shut our eyes and pout; while others, more optimistic, open their eyes and shout. When it comes to flying I would rather be an optimist. We as Seniors can not afford to sleep on the job. A traveling man once asked the hotel clerk to call him at a certain time in the morning. The next morning a boy called him to the door and seeing his angry look handed him a message. The boy quickly disappeared and the man read the message. In the message were the words It ' s time to wake up. It ' s a poor time to get such a message at graduation if we have not received it before. However, it is better to receive it now than to walk under the cold shower of the world and be shocked with a cramp of failure. Every one is willing to give us advice, and perhaps we get too much. The best way to do is to be humble and willing to learn. Plug up one ear, and put a funnel in the other; then see that the contents received oil up the delicate cogs that make the man. When the trials of life begin to trip us up, then we sit down on a stone and con- template suicide, and with a long alligator-like expression, we declare there is too much to bear. But the poet says: Square your shoulders to the world. It ' s easy to give in — Lift your chin a little higher! You were made to win. Grit your teeth, but smile, don ' t frown; We all must bear our bit. It ' s not the load that weighs us down. It ' s the way we carry it. So to make the load easy we must have clear minds, healthy bodies, good friends, and a trust in a higher power. A good bit centers around the healthy body. About half the world is suffering with indigestion, and indigestion robs the mind of its clearness. So let us as Seniors grasp the inexpensive ingredients of health and long life: temperance, open air, moderate exercise, and joyous repose. All of them slam the door at the doctor ' s nose. However, health is not the only thing; good friends, and spiritual trust is just as essential for an easy load. The only way to have friends is to be one, and the only way to have spiritual trust is to link yourself up with the greatest teacher on earth, Jesus Christ. For a full, well-rounded, successful life, we must live the Jesus Way ; and that is to develop mentally, spiritually, socially, and physically. As we reach out eagerly for our sheep skins, the feeling of its leathery skin does not send over our bodies the thrill of happiness that we anticipated for four years. Instead, happiness, like a butterfly, darts away and leaves us blinking into the Cave of Life. Then we realize what our dear friend, Mr. Byers, has been telling us. To gain happi- ness, shun it. At this we firmly resolve to serve others and forget ourselves. Be your own hardest taskmaster. We have visions of shirt sleeve labor. Education consists in seeking differences where others see uniformity. We resolve to put Edison to shame. Don ' t make excuses; make good. We grit our teeth and clench our fists. If you want to get ahead use your head. We rub our head to see if it is there, and then we leave the school for the last time as High School pupils. As we go, we repeat over and over the immortal words of Van Dyke: Four things a man must do. If he would keep his purpose true: To think without confusion, clearly; To love his fellow men sincerely; To act with honest motives purely; To trust in Heaven and God securely. ' -The Editors ESSAY ON SERVICE The question might arise, Why is it necessary to write on the subject, ' Service ' ? The answer is, because it is a very important subject. The reason it is so important is that every one of us who amounts to anything has given his service, and it will be necessary for a person to give his service before he ever will amount to anything. The proof of this is very easy. All of our great men who have stood out as leaders have given their service. If they had not, they would never have become great. Such men as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln gave their service to the world. No one can deny that they were great men. Thus we want to give our service to the world. The definition of service is, labor done for another. That means that in order to give our service to the world we must work. Here is where many of us fall down. Wo do not work. We all are willing to work for a high salary, but to work for merely our own good would be out of the question. Even worse to work for others. This is the opinion expressed by many, as shown by their laziness. Work will not hurt any of us, and to be idle may injure us for life. The first thing we can all do is always to be happy. Happiness is the foundation of service. Be an optimist and you will get much more out of life. Of course, we will have disappointments and hardships, but it does not make matters any better by being gloomy. A smile at the right time may bring you success some time. By being happy we can find things that need to be done and then accomplish them. In this way we can give our service. It may not amount to much at first, but if we continue this we are sure to succeed. No man has ever become great over night. But there is one great thing which may cause us to fail — that is worry. Worry has been the downfall of many. We can only worry over two things: They are what has happened and what will happen. The past and future. Why worry over the past? Nothing can alter it now, so be happy and make others happy. Why worry over the future? It is going to happen a certain way, which depends upon how you have prepared for it. If you have not worked m the past and you worry over what may happen to you in the future, this will not make the future turn out any better. Whatever comes, be happy. So if you will serve the world, never worry. I have no great ambition for life except to be a real man and give my service to the world, because whatever occupation we hold we can always be of service to someone who needs it. Here is a motto which I go by and I think it would be a help to all who want to serve : Yesterday is gone — forget it. Tomorrow isn ' t here — don ' t worry. Today is here — give your service. James Ball, Business Manager, ' 25. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The dream of two hundred and eighty-five boys and girls came true as they entered the doors of the Huntington High School in the year of nineteen hundred and twenty- one to become freshmen, some for knowledge, some for achievement, while some for scholarship. We entered the building to gain and learn. Our pathway has been marked by numerous broad fields of accomplishment: some in art, some in drama, some in debatmg, some in athletics, and, as a class, we are proud of our achievements. Gripping the oars of success, we started over the rough seas with a will to win. We were piloted through our first year splendidly. We swiftly sailed through the second year without much trouble; then came our junior year. We met with some success in this year because of our growing spirit and ambition. To our class goes the credit of giving our upper classmen, the seniors, the best farewell banquet that has been given. This credit should go to our able class advisor. Miss Ewing. Since our ship was brought safely toward land through all these storms, we sailed on into our senior year. This year has led us to a goal which has never been leached as a class and which every class has hoped to reach. With the opening of our last year we had one hundred and fifty-five seniors. As a class we should feel proud of this. At our first meeting we elected Hayden Harlow, president; Kenneth Mahoney, vice- president; Iva McCrum, secretary; Marian Weaver, treasurer; and Miss Anne Koch, our class advisor. We wish to thank Miss Koch for her splendid guidance in all the trials that have confronted us. High praise should be given to the Modulus staff for this splendid book which marks another phase of success. It has been through the united efforts of the joint editors and business manager that this has been accomplished. We had hardly arranged for our social year when an invitation was extended to us for a Hallowe ' en party at Vivian Buzzard ' s home. There, as at several other senior parties, we all had a good time. The activities of the class met with still greater success. The senior play, Kempy, was given on March II and 12, and it was stated it was the best that has ever been presented by a class. Much credit should go to the efforts of Mrs. Knowlton Kelsey and the cast. During the year the junior state legislature was organized and James Weber, as a senator from Huntington County, was sent to Indianapolis. We were all glad to see James receive this honor, as no other student could have fulfilled this task so well. In athletics we gained statewide recognition and the class has many players on the team. When our school days are coming to a close, probably more rapidly than we can realize, we wish to place ourselves in the hands of our good judgment and ambition and sail on through life with all its hardships, only to think back to our good old senior days. We hate to feel that there will no longer be room for us in the classrooms which we love so well, and that the doors will not open for us with the same purpose as they do now. We especially want to thank the faculty to whom we are indebted for their kind help; Mr. Byers, for his everlasting patience and the deep interest which he has given us; Mr. Day, for his help with this book; and last, but not least. Miss Koch, our class advisor, who has been our leader. Farewell and success to ye followers. Hayden J. Harlow, ' 25. SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY The huge mogul locomotive lazily pulled its long string of shining Pullmans into the tunnel entrance, a short distance from the great terminal at Washington. On the observation platform, at the rear of the train, stood a stylishly dressed man in a very thoughtful mood. With top-coat thrown over his arm, and a porter standing nearby with two shining grips, the young man seemed to be thinking of a day long past, and accord- ing to his tear moistened eyes, he still cherished fond memories of those days that would never return. The blackness of the tunnel enveloped the entiife train, and the young man, with the attending porter, made his way to the front of the coach preparatory to leaving the train which had carried him from his Indiana home to the nation ' s capital, where he was preparing to leave the States for diplomatic work abroad. As he stepped from the train, he was received by Vice-President Arthur Scudder, was bustled into the presidential Hmousine, and driven to the White House to be received by President Weber. There in the spacious presidential suite he told his former class- mates of his travels since they had last been toge ther, and with no little show of emotion told of other classmates whom he had met scattered over the American continent from coast to coast. He told his friends of how he had met Wesley Heiney and Josephine Neuer in San Francisco. They were married, and were both starring in the stage success The Mon- ster. He told of seeing Walter Bell take first place in a thrilling auto-race at Daytona Beach, driving a soecial car built and designed by Robert Cline land Malcolm Yarger. He described vividly the air-limousine journey with Hdon Bell, noted inventor, from San Francisco to Denver. Near Denver they stopped and went through the great open- rir sanitarium owned and run by Thelma and Thyra Ade. Thyra was then serving her second term in the U. S. Senate, and she had met with great success in politics. It was here that he learned that Iva McCrum, Elizabeth Scudder. Catherine Kiser, and Letitia Kenner were active members of the House of Representatives, and they were all work- ing on a bill that would absolutely exterminate John Barleycorn. Miss Ade also told of how the Senate was placed in turmoil on one particular occasion when Clvde Bucking- ham, Arthur Nicholson, Dale Shock, and Cameron Phillips featured in a subway accid- ent. The cable which controlled the car was not of sufficient strength to hold the weight of these portly gentlemen, and as a result the government thought for a time that they had lost four perfectly good Senators. In Phoenix. Arizona, he spent an enjoyable week-end at the ranch owned bv Neil Kindy. Neil had married Adeline Eisenhauer, and becoming interested in the stock busi- ness, had drifted out west where he had made good. Gerald Warkentine and George Hildebrand were two alive go-getting ranch foremen who made possible the great suc- cess of the whole stock ent erprise. While motoring from Phoenix to Kansas City, he met Martha Holabird and her hus- band Mr. Lahr as they were attempting to span the desert in a little Ford. Thev were traveling to Reno, where Leslie had inheritd a large ostrich farm. While on this trip across the desert, Mr. X, as we shall call him. had the opportunity to inspect the Bachelor Gold Mine, owned by Walter Nevius. Bill , who had turned prospector for his health, was made independently rich by the discovery of this rich mine. He explained how he had met Earl Dixon while in Kansas City. While being shown through the great broadcasting station owned by the Kansas Citv Press, he was sur- nrised and elated to meet Mr. Dixon, chief operator of the great plant. It was through Earl that Mr. X secured the opportunity to renew his acquaintance with Ruth Fair. Ruth was a headliner on the great station ' s daily programs, arid she was known in practically every country in the world because of her excellent vocal numbers. While in the citv he had also spent several days with Franklin Flower and his wife, who was formerly Florence Felton. Franklin was an automobile salesman, and was the company ' s highest paid man. and expected soon to go into the business for himself. While in Chicago Mr. X had the opportunity of meeting many of his old friends and classmates, as he was now getting nearer to the little Indiana town where his bovhood days were spent. One of the first persons to greet him at the depot was Marion Ryan, now famous as a short-story writer. He discussed with Marion the ideas which Marion had collected for a new book. On the eve of his arrival in Chicago, he dined with Marion at a club banquet. Among those present at the banquet were Harold Smith, Melvin Bolinger, Eldon Bucher and Truman Grayston. Smith, who had married Jane Barnhisel, had gained eminence in Chicago surgical circles because of his marvelous feats of surgery. Bolinger and Bucher were two of the greatest stars on the Chicago Baseball League, while Grayston was chief engineer of the Edison electric plant. After a very enjoyable visit in the Windy City, Mr. X boarded a crack Erie Flyer, which would whisk him speedily to his old home town once more. While on the train he was surprised to find that the conductor of the train was one of his old friends, Carl Eckert. Eckert informed Mr. X that the engineer of the train was Hayden Harlow, and according- ly at the next station Mr. X boarded the huge locomotive, and enjoyed the rest of the trip on the engine with Harlow. At the station, Mr. X continued, he was greeted by a large number of former class- mates. Melville Kiracofe, successful Huntington lavvyer, conveyed the crowd to his home in his elaborate limousine. At his home that evening a grand banquet was given, and among those present to renew their old friendships with Mr. X were Paul Kunze, Nelson La Bar, Glenn Lucas, Kenneth Mahoney, Fred Pinkerton, and Kenneth and Clarence Scott. Kunze had just accepted a position as assistant chief chemist with the General Motors corporation, and was preparing to leave for Detroit soon. Nelson La- Bar was local superintendent of the Erie system, and was expecting promotion any day. Glenn Lucas was in the city temporarily on a visit, as he had a position as director of a well known moving-picture corporation. Kenneth Mahoney had recently started an up- to-date men ' s outfitting store, and was doing very well. Fred Pinkerton was the exalted leader of the city band, a musical organization of the highest order, which was soon scheduled to make a tour of the United States. The two Scott brothers owned and operated a first-class jewelry store on the old main thoroughfare, and were having ex- cellent success. Kenneth Scott had married Marjorie Huffman, while Clarence had been married only a short time to Catherine Goshorn. Mr. Kiracofe had married Josephine Glenn several years back, while Kenneth Mahoney had been recently tied up with Kathryn Cutshall. After the banquet the guests all lit their after-lunch cigars, and talked of old times and of the other class-mates that were still in Huntington. It was here, Mr. X stated to his friends in the spacious White House apartments, that he passed the most enjoyable hours of his whole American trip, for he learned much concerning the old classmates who had never left the scene of their boyhood struggles. He further stated that the first thing that the members of the banquet spoke about was the formation of a local Old Maid ' s association, by several eminent classmates: Mil- dred Parvin. Martha May, Helen Miller, Marian May, and Zelma Layman. These ladies had joined forces in order to combat the alarming number of unsuccessful marriages that were taking place, and strove to exterminate forever the divorce evil. The organization proved a failure because Mildred Parvin eloped with a drummer, which so disgusted the remaining members that they disbanded forever their pet hobby. Alice Snider was the new librarian, and even in the short time that she had been employed she had placed Huntington ' s library on the map. Dorothy larvis was an active participant in the state legislature, as well as was Helen Jackson. Dorothy Kahn vwas operating a hat shoo on Market street, and was doing verv nicely. Berniece and Mae Kline were chorus girls in a popular troupe then playing on Broadway. Howard Kriegbaum still ran the implement store, and so great had be en his success that he was forced to make a large addition to the o ' d olace of business. He operated a complete machine shop in order to supply the demand for parts that were needed im- mediately by the surrounding agriculturists. Luella Levins operated a manicuring shoo on Warren street, and it was rumored that she was soon to marry a rich New York broker. Charles and Hilda Little were backing it on their chicken farm south of the city. Charles owned one of the most completely equipped chicken farms in the country, and was making good. Martha Lowman and Claire Lucas were the joint owners of a large sanitarium which had been but recently built along the banks of the Wabash. William Narranre had only recently left the city to direct a large band of syncopaters in Andrews. Rudolph Nauss was then at his summer home in Florida, as he had become wealthy through his excellent ability as a cartoonist. Mark Orr had married Ruth Pauling, and Mark had settled down and was running the old trucking outfit inherited from his father. Edwin Payne, Huntington ' s crack sheriff, had only recently married Mildred Overmyer. At the time of Mr. X ' s stay in Huntington they were absent on their honeymoon. John Ott was the best brakeman and seat-box warmer on the Erie system. Pauling Peting and Dorotha Peters were traveling abroad gathermg material for a book which they hoped to publish in the near future. William Poling had mrrried Vera Plumley, and William was Huntington ' s waterworks superintendent. Raymond Pfeiffer, after marrying Ethel Rankin, had engaged in the automobile business, and was planning a motor-bus transportation system between Huntington and Chicago. Virginia Reed, Lucile Rice, and Kathryn Robb were the joint proprietors of the old Haymarket restaurant, which institution threatened greatly all the other culinary houses in Hunting- ton. Harry Shidler had married Virginia Reed, and was receiving a high salary as a professional basket-ball player. Dorothy Weber, Dorothy Sellers, and Edna Shearer were still old pals, and were owners of a small farm on the outskirts of the city where they studied truck farming. Wilbur Shively, after marrying Martha Short, established himself as swimming in- structor at the Idl4-Hour resort. Florence Shipley, Virginia Siegmund. Avenella Slage ' , Juanita Stewart, and Doris Tucker were studying art abroad. Opal Shipley was operat- ing her own taxi line in Huntington, and was very successful, both as driver and man- ager. Charles Skinner was then serving the city in the capacity of motorcycle police- man. Robert SEinner was chief engineer at the waterworks plant, and had gained much publicity by firing all engine-room hands, and firing the boilers himself to cut down city expenses. Emerson Smith had left the city several years previous to take up missionary work in Africa. Kathryn Stults. Henrietta Swan, and Vonda Ulrich were studying classical dancing abroad under distinguished masters. Burl Tillman owned one of the best gar- ages in the northern part of the state. He attributed his success to the great economy he practiced in operating the garage. He taught Lucile to keep books immediately after be- ing married, so that she could do her bit toward keeping the home fires burning. Irene Wendell, Freda White. Gladys Wilson, Louise Wood, and Bernice Wynn were training daily in the Hotel LaFontaine pools, so that thev might be in trim to participate in the Olympic swimming feats the coming year. Florence Whitelock was very successful in managing the old White ' ock Press. The cornerstone had iust been laid for a great factory which was erected by a company of which Ray Adams was president. The company was pl?nning to place on the market successfully a new type of storage battery invented by Adams. Rav was very confident that his invention would make him a rich man. By this time it had become very late, and the crowd reluctlantly Darted from their o ' d friend. The next day. after many sincere farewells, Mr. X made his deoarture over the Erie system for New York City. Af er his arrival in New York, Mr. X chartered a ferrv to Brooklyn, where he was to board the coast-wnse steamer for Norfolk, there to board a fast train for the capital city. While on the ferry, Mr. X was delighted to meet his old friend and classmate, Rome Brading, who was then captain of a speedy motor-launch used to chase rum-runners in New York harbor. It was from Mr. Brading that he learned that James Ball was editor of the great Chicago Tribune, which oaoer was recognized internationally as the World ' s Greatest Newspaper. Haro ' d Diffenbaugh, captain of the ferry, a lso extended cordial greetings to his old classmate. While in New York City Mr. X was royallv entertained by his former classmate. Bill Newell, mayor of New York City. They had a very p ' easant visit together, talking of old times and of the pranks they used to play ' way back in ' 25. Mr. Newell informed his suest that Sam Williams was one of the best detectives in the whole city force, and had been offered an enormous salary by Scotland Yard if he would accept a position as detective on their great force. However. Sam reiected the offer, saying that his coun- try needed him more than ever before, and he preferred to serve his country first. He also learned that Roland Williams, who was then one of the greatest American authori- ties on agriculture, had iust ' eft New York a few days previous to make a tour of in- spect ' on of the farming facilities of the European nations. The next day, Mr. X sadly boarded the steamer on the last lap of his journey to the National Capital. The journey proved uneventful, and as the steamer plowed its steady way through the n:ioonlit waters of the Atlantic, Mr. X thought again and again of his visits and meetings with all his old friends, and sadly wondered how many years would elapse before he would see their familiar faces again. By this time, it had become so dark in the presidential suite, due to the waning light of a fast disappearing sun, that the three men who had been greatly occupied in this tale concerning their former classmates, were unable to see their way about. After much groping in the darkened room, the lights were finally switchd on, and after receiv- ing the President ' s heartiest wishes, Mr. X made his way to the foreign office to make all the necessary arrangements for his departure on the morrow. The voyage to London would have been uneventful except for the fact that on board the vessel he had the extreme pleasure of meeting George Streseman, a govern- ment official, sent abroad on a secret mission. During the five days of the passage they were always together, and passed many otherwise weary hours talking over old times. Upon his arrival in London, Mr. X was amazed to run across two of his best friends. Dale Stouder and William Strodel. Both were preparing to return to the States after studying the methods of British merchants. Both contemplated starting a huge store in Boston, and to handle English wares exclusively. Also while in London he had the great fortune to meet another one of his old friends. Wilbur Foust. Wilbur, who had made a fortune in the shoe business, was traveling abroad for his health. At the sug- gestion of Mr. Foust. Mr. X accompanied him for a week end visit at a charming summe,- resort in the Swiss Alps. It was while enjoying the fine air and scenery of the romantic nook that they met one of their former classwomen, Marian Weaver. Miss Weaver was also here on a mission of recuperation, and to gain the strength she had lost in steering her great business enterprise through the rapids to safety. Miss Weaver was owner of a large store in Chicago which outfitted smaller stores throughout the country. Mr. X de- clared to one of his friends later that he would never forget the great times that they had together at the little resort, nestled among the Swiss Alps. .At last, at the urgent call of diplomatic business, Mr. X had to take leave reluctant- ly of his friends and the good times he had had in their company, and to go to Paris to assume the responsibilities of the diplomatic service. Even now, Mr. X looks anxiously forward to the time when he will again revisit his old friends in America. Kenneth Keller, ' 25. Chemistry is my downfall, I shall not want a sadder one; It maketh me to lie down to unpleasant dreams. It leadeth me into despair. It ruineth my vocabulary. It casteth me into the ranks of the fallen for its grade ' s sake. ea, though I labor diligently in the laboratory, I appear for examinations. I will fear low grades while it is with me. Its atoms and molecules discomfort me. It prepareth humiliation for me in the presence of mine friends. It anointeth my hands with sulphuric acid; My crucibles runneth over. Surely to goodness if chemistry follow me all the days of my schooling, I shall dwell in the laboratory forever. From Idaho Teacher Ben Kizer THE LATIN CONTEST Colleen Utter won first place in the county Latin contest, held at Huntington, on March 7. This entitled her to represent the school and the county in the district contest, which was held at Peru on March 28. Here she won third place. Gertrude Peting also won honors in the county contest, taking third place. Lena Johnson and Glen Kindley were other representatives from the local school in this contest. SUCCESS Success is like a blooming flower. The idea of success is planted in early youth by inspirations gained from elders. So it is the seed of the plant Success sown on the mountain side. The seed sprouts and breaks the ground; so, by the youth, success with small undertakings is accomplished. The sprout now looks forward to being a large, spreading, beautiful plant. The youth, also, in reading pirate and other exciting stores, comes to realize that he has an idea of a goal. At first, probably to become a successful pirate or robber; thus his first idea of success is obtained. The seed in order to survive depends upon the elements of earth and atmosphere. Thus, so does the success element in a person ' s life depend upon encouragement, assistance, and sympathy. The plant has now growni to where it must be cultivated, watered, and carefully trained. A person ' s life travels along the same pathway, thus needing guidance to be kept from going astray. Here now, — as did the flower of success, need cultivating — the idea of success needs work, faith, and education to become a realization. Now as time passes, the plant has budded. Along side the plant travels life. Suc- ces is thought to be nearly gained. But it is still afar off. Far upon the mountain blooms the flower of success, at last issuing forth from the tender bud. All those passing below admire and desire the blossom, but no attempt is made to gain it. At last one comes, different than the rest; he sees the flower, and also admires and desires it. But instead of passing it, he starts to climb the mountain with a determination, now falling, now rising again with a new faith and determination to gain the flower. Day and night he travels and toils through deep valleys and over rush- ing streams. Again and again he is fatigued, but by rising and renewing his faith he pushes forward. The flower looks down upon the struggler and murmurs, He has shown his deter- mination and desire for me, thus he fairly deserves me. The path now becomes smooth- er and easier. The flower is reached and plucked. But instead of returning to the depths below, a new path opens above, smooth, plain, and easy to travel. So the victor now takes his flower, that yielded gently to him, and starts on the new path to the place of the glorious city, where he becomes forever famous. So now, departing Seniors, we all hope that each one of you take courage and have faith, so when you view the blossom upon the mountain side, you may press upward and seize it and not pass it by. Thus may your determination illuminate your path of success. George Ertzinger, ' 26. OUT OF THE DEPTHS Marjorie Benton was homesick. Homesick? No, not that, for she was a college girl of nineteen summers. She was lonesome; that was all. Tonight she wonders what the folks back home are doing. Father had feared failure in business. Mother was not feeling well when she left home, Bob, her only brother, might have been hurt again; he was so careless. Much as she had wanted to come to Brooklyn College, yet she felt that she was needed at home. But mother and father had insisted, so here she was, three hundred miles from home and loved ones. Though a beautiful October day had just come to a close, her heart was heavy and she had not appreciated it. She longed to frolic with the girls on the campus after school or go rowing on the lake nearby. The girls, except, Charlotte Warren, her room-mate, did not seem to care for her, and though she was friendly, she was not the type of girl to make one feel at home in a strange place. Tonight Charlotte had gone to a party and had left Marjorie to study and bemoan her fate alone. She would prepare her lessons for the morrow, then go to bed, and perhaps she could forget her troubles. But it was not to be so, for she tossed feverishly about with only a short interval of sleep now and then. Next morning she arose late, feeling more dejected than ever, performed a hasty toilet, breakfasted and went to her morning classes. The hours crept slowly by. Classes were dismissed at four and Marjorie wended her way toward her room in the girls dormitory. Charlotte was out, so she started reading a new book which she had brought from home. After attempting for an hour or so to read, she laid aside her book and walked dreamily to her window. She saw the glowing sun in all its splendor seeking the hazy western horizon. After seizing a light wrap she proceeded from the building and out across the campus toward the shore of the now almost deserted lake. The great expanse of water seemed, instead, to be a mass of fire, so red were the gleaming rays reflected upon its surface. The landscape, shadowed by the soft, mellow tints of the sinking sun, made the occasio n seem solemn, almost sacred. Something about it fired her with encouragement and inspiration. Nature, indeed, is inspiring to the tempted and discour- aged, for she makes one remember that there is a higher power holding sway over thr lives of men. Marjorie was made to see her mistake and she determined anew to push on and reach her aodl. She must not be a quitter, she thought. What would the folks back home say if they knew? Darkness was beginning to enfold the earth with its shadowy mantle as Marjorie started back along the shore toward the campus. As she retraced her footsteps she was thinking: Why should she care whether she was ' one of the crowd ' or not? If the girls didn ' t like her, it just couldn ' t be helped. Perhaps they didn ' t know her well enough. Some day she would show them. They would be proud to claim her as a class-mate. At this instant the sound of excited voices reached her ears. Help! Help! comes the piercing cry through the darkness. Can some of the girls be in danger? Just then the big light on the campus was switched on and, at a distance, Marjorie saw two girls struggling frantically to reach the shore — their boat, apparently, had capsized. One is already exhausted and is being pulled along by her companion. They are Mildred South and Isabel Allen, two of the most popular girls in school. What was Marjorie to do? She could not swim well. and. besides, she would not be strong enough, by the time she got to them, to pull the girls to shore. She must save them, though, and with strong determination she plunges into the glassy lake, and, straining every nerve, fights her way bravely through the placid water. She is gaining. In another moment she can grasp the exhausted Isabel. But, alas! Just then she sees the girl sink beneath the depths of the waters. Is she drowning? comes the dreadful thought. No, is the answer, for in a moment she rises to the surface. Seizing her firmly. Mariorie pulls madly for the shore. Meanwhile, the other girl, having lost all hope of saving Isabel, has abandoned her and reached shore, where she now stands watching eagerly and urging Marjorie on. Just one more stroke and both wall be safe. As they reach the edge. Marjorie scrambles up and pulls her burden after her, then falls in a heap, com- pletely exhausted. Mildred, running toward the college for help, meets Fred Owens and her brother, Harry. The three girls had been missed and the boys were sent out to find them. The two stricken girls were hastily borne to the emergency rooms and doctors summoned. Isabel is soon revived, but poor Marjorie lies apparently lifeless. After several hours of frantic effort the physicians see a change of expression upon her face, then more normal breathing follows, and she opens her eyes and smiles. Where is Isabel? are her first words. After being assured that her friend is safe and uninjured, she rests more easily. In a short time she is taken to her room, where recovery comes slowly. Six weeks after the experience on the lake, Isabell Allen gave a party in honor of her rescuer. Marjorie was now the idol of the school, not only for her heroic deed, but also for her striking personality and brilliant class recitations. She and Isabel were inseparable friends. The girls asked her how she could fight so bravely for the life of one who had so disregarded her, but Marjorie refused to speak of the affair. The boys stood by in silent admiration and marveled at the fact that a girl had done something really worth while. Upon this occasion the president of the college made an inspiring sneech, urging fellowship and cooperation among the students. In closing he said: Marjorie ' s life, brief so far at our school, has been a lesson to all of us and a source of inspiration. We realize that we have not given the new students the welcome they deserve. We have not worked together in harmony as we should. Marjorie, in the sad episode six weeks ago, acted from a sense of duty. She neither thought of personal reward nor of the danger involved for herself. Let us from now on live for our service to others, rather than so much for personal gain. Then when we leave school and launch out upon the storm-tossed sea of life, let our lives be lighthouses sending forth r?diant light to guide and encourase lost seamen. Or let us each be a Good Samaritan along the wav of life, ready to pick un and minister unto the fallen and wearied trav- elers. Then I am sure that our lives will not have been in vain, for we will have fulfilled our duty, both to our Creator and to our fellow-men, and that is all that is asked. The sweetest lives are those to duty wed, Whose deeds, both great and small. Are close-knit strands of an unbroken thread. Where love enables all. Bernice Hanauer, ' 25. WHICH TEACHER WAS IT? The Freshie stood, all woe-betide. Deep-lined his brow so fair; The team would play at four o ' clock. And he would not be there. His lessons he had failed to have. Besides, he ' d come in late; And now he stood beside the desk To hear his awful fate. His courage failed, big tears rolled down; That game he could not miss. He ' d come in every night that week For just that hour of bliss. The teacher sympathized with him. She understood his woe; Her heart o ' er flowed, she wept — and then — Hot Dog, she let him go! Benjamin Kizer. WISDOM ' S WAY. Wisdom, in thy sober-colored dress. Thou dost adorn this clay mankind to bless. Without thy precious gem upon his brow He sinks. Thou art his preserver. thou Who has grown aged, and yet ever young. Who hoary wert ere Greece thy virtues sung; And yet thou smiiest in thy vernal youth At each advancement of eternal truth. To thee be honor! And accept our praise. Wilt thou, as at thy throne these humble lays We pour? For at thy fountain clear we drank Deep cheering draughts as on our souls they sank. But how attain we to thy gracious throne? By toil and struggle and by these alone. Nor yet alone as page on page we turn Does Wisdom ' s bright and burnished candle burn: If yon rich cloud that slowly sail on high. If yon bright moon that looks with loving eye. And if the lovely willow ' s graceful bend Afford thy thoughtful mind no joy, no friend; If on the lap of nature as thy nurse Thou wept and joyed not as the Universe, Then what a soulless clod thy life must be, And what a sordid lot thy books to thee! Great truths must ever be enlarged by men Who agonize with chisel, sword, and pen; Who know the ladened heart of human kind And struggle for the mastery of the mind. Who thought the power that moved the clay called Burns Could charm a world as to his feet it turns? Ah yes! but he and nature wept as one; He felt her briny tears, he viewed her sun Sink in a cheerless west, and then he crept Into her bosom and there in silence wept. But then rejoiced he at her opening bud. Ecstatic stood he in her gorgeous flood. He saw with eyes aglow her crimson west; With tender hands he touched the sparrow ' s nest. Wisdom, thy throne is thus attained to them: By mingled portions of books, nature, men. Wisdom fair! fill then these urns we hold. Wealth of all past, our future course to hold. C. E. Byers. THE SENIORS. Oh Seniors, you are leaving us; Perhaps we ' ll meet no more: You ' re plunging outward into life Like those who ' ve gone before. Your course may now be hazy. Your plan may not be clear; But keep your head, and do your best: You ' ll have no cause to fear. You ' ve toiled and struggled these four years. You ' ve found it hard to wait; But now you think you ' re getting there. For now you ' ll graduate. ' Tis true, ' tis true, but look ahead. You ' ve yet to face some strife. Your education ' s but a start. You ' re just prepared for life. Your course will be no easy one: He who would shine must work; And snares and pits of idleness In every hollow lurk. But you are armored for the cause; And think before you choose: The goal lies straight before you; It ' s yours, to win or lose. Just do your best, ' tis all you ' re asked. And if you win or fall. Just do this much, and you ' ll be safe: Just play the game, that ' s all. Ben Kizer. THOUGHTS OF SCHOOL Oh! What a daily nightmare. This school hfe seems to be. When we have to come here day by day. And drill on chemistry. And then besides the chemistry. Other things we take; For instance, Caesar ' s Gallic War; That ' s like dying at the stake. Then if you do just the little thing Of bringing your pony to class. They just completely unhorse you. And say, You shall not pass. And when you take geometry. You have yardsticks and everything. And get to talk from the blackboard. And make circles with a string. Oh! This school life is awful. Of that there is no doubt; But just remember. Seniors, This year you will be out. But yet, when all is over. And we pick up the pack. And meet all of life ' s troubles. We ' ll all wish we were back. CI aire Lucas ' 25. HANK ' S DUTY Yes, he ' s yellow, as yellow as you get them, sneered Jack Dalton. But, Jack, he ' s a member of the Honor Society, of the debating team and of the baseball team, replied Tom Brown, with unbelief registered on his face. That don ' t make any difference. He ' s yellow. He knew the whole team depended on him to bring our school victory over the South Siders and then he deliberately broke training rules by smoking a cigar. I can ' t believe Hank would do such a thing. He always loved his school and he was never afraid to lead out in other school activities, said Tom, sadly. Such was the conversation that was going through the whole school. Hank Miller had always been the idol of the school. He was the best pitcher in the county and everyone was sure that the old rival South Side would bow to defeat; but just before the game the coach caught Hank with a lighted cigar in his hand. As a result. Hank was expelled from the team. South Side won the game and Hank was branded as yellow. It was hard on Hank, but he kept in queer silence. Not even Helen, the only girl he ever cared for, would look at him. Friendship was a valuable thing to Hank, but now it was gone and in its place the word yellow seemed to be branded. Conversation stopped as he came up to groups of boys and girls and as he passed someone was always bound to bitterly say yellow. This had gone on for about a week and excitement was keen in the whole school. Anderson, another old rival, was to play Red and Black in just one week, but still hope was lost without Hank. Jack Dalton, son of a wealthy banker, for some reason or other, was the most bitter of all students. Hank begged for the coach to let him back, but the coach was one of those fellows who wouldn ' t listen. It seemed that Hank fairly ate up his studies, he worked so hard. The teachers pitied him; girls looked shyly at him; but, then, he was yellow. It happened that Jack Dalton and Hank were on a debate in the English class. When it came time for the class to open, everyone was wondering just what the yellow streak would say. The subject was Duty. Jack was the first speaker. He arose with a fine and pompous air and started in flowery language. There was do doubt about it — his speech was fine. In it he brought out forcefully his contempt for a slacker and a coward. The climax came when he said: Who is yellow? It is the boy or girl or citizen who hasn ' t the backbone to do anything that will help his neighbors. It is the boy or girl who hasn ' t the backbone to refrain from doing anything that will cause others to suffer. When he said those words he looked straight at Hank, who was deathly pale. Every eye in the class was glued on him. Sweat poured from his brow and chills ran up and down his back. We don ' t have to think of big men, of big incidents, but let ' s come home to our own doors, Jack continued. Are we yellow? Thank God we ' re not all yellow! Some of us love our country and our school well enough to sacrifice for it, but, sad to say, we have a yellow streak in this room. At this he took his seat. Quiet reigned. Every muscle was tense. Would Hank speak in the face of such an attack? Slowly Hank arose from his seat and, with head bowed, he seemed to drag his feet to the front of the room. Duty, he began, is above all consequences and often, at a crisis of difficulty, commands us to throw them overboard. It comma nds us to look neither to the right nor to the left, but straight onward. Hence, every act of duty is an act of faith. It is performed in the assurance that God will take care of the consequences and will so order the course of the world that, whatever the immediate results may be, his word shall not return to him void. This span of life was lent for lofty duties, not for selfishness, not to be whiled away in aimless dreams, but to improve ourselves and serve mankind. God always has an angel of help for those who are willing to do their duty. As he spoke his face grew flushed and the poor boy felt his heart pounding within him. No one knew how he felt standing before his schoolmates who saw in him a yellow streak, speaking upon the subject of duty. He continued speaking until Jack Dalton whispered yellow in an audible tone. That was Hank ' s last straw. He quickly left the room and, getting his hat and coat, he left the building. It certainly must mean that Hank was guilty. Jack Dalton was triumphant; he had gained a victory and in his heart he was longing for the game with Anderson. He was to pitch in Hank ' s place and if only luck would shine on Red and Black he would be the hero of the hour. That evening he went home with only one shadow in his mind and that was the Anderson pitcher. If the Anderson pitcher was out of commission, then it would be clear sailing for Red and Black. On his way he met several of the girls that were in the English class. 0, I say girls, that was some speech Hank gave this afternoon. Do you think so? replied one, coolly. How about having a soda or so? I feel as if I need one after my strenuous work today. He spoke gleefully and looked as if the whole world were his. Well, said one of the group, perhaps you need one to tickle that marvelous tongue of yours, but we girls would rather not hinder you, because then you might not be able to do some duty for your school. You ' re so perfect! Come, girls. At this the girls walked rapidly away. The sarcasm in the girl ' s words left Jack standing very uncomfortable. He licked his dry lips and resolved more and more to win the admiration of the whole school by defeating Anderson. It was almost dark when he reached home. He grabbed a doughnut and hurried out into the alley to pitch stones and to think. Suddenly he saw coming down the alley a young man. Could he believe his eyes? It was the Anderson pitcher. Jack did some quick thinking. Hastily he tied his handkerchief about his face, pulled his cap down over his eyes and grabbed a rock. Breathlessly he waited behind a shed for the oncoming boy. The moment came for action. There was a scuffle of feet, a crunching of cinders and Jack found himself looking into the unconscious face of his victim. Deliberately he took a deadlock wrestling hold upon the pitching arm of the boy, and, with an extra tug, broke the bones of the fore-arm. As he finished and turned to run away, he turned only to look into the brown, piercing eyes of Hank. Is this what you call duty? asked Hank, with a husky voice. When your opponent happens to be in the city and, for some unknown reason, you meet him in the alley, is it duty to break his arm? Hank, please don ' t report me. I — I — I hear someone coming. Let ' s hide quick! I ' ll explain. Hank reluctantly went with Jack. The next day the papers were full of the report. And the worst of it was, a broken high school pin was found beside the body. This clue showed the culprit to be a member of H. H. S. That same morning the whole school was called into the auditorium. Every one was in a state of high excitement. Anderson ' s pitcher was out, because of the meanness of a high school boy. The principal arose and, with drawn lips and chalky face, told of the incident. As he closed he said: The whole school must suffer for this deed unless the doer of the deed is found. Who is the guilty party? Hank looked at Jack quivering in his seat and, after a long, tense silence, the words of his speech came to him. God always has an angel of help for those who do their duty. Slowly Hank arose from his seat and, going to the platform, he said: I will take all blame for this deed. I ' m sorry, but I ' m guilty. The whole school gave a sight of relief. They all felt sorry for Hank, but, then, he was yellow, anyway. There was a shuffle of feet and a figure, pale and haggard, sprang upon the stage. School-mates, I ' m the guilty party. I ' m the yellow streak. Hank is innocent! screamed Jack Dalton. Hank ' s innocent. I lied. It was I who caused Hank to be expelled from the team. Then he told how Hank, for a long time, had been practicing magic. One of his chief tricks was to reach into the air and bring forth a lighted cigar. Jack and the coach had walked into Hank ' s room just as he was rehearsing for a future performance. He held the lighted cigar in his hand. The coach, on seeing the cigar, had immediately expelled Hank and Jack had done his part in making things worse. The whole room rang with cheers when Jack finished and Hank was rushed trium- phantly to the classroom, no longer a yellow streak, but a hero. I knew you weren ' t yellow, said Hank ' s girl that evening. Remember what you said. Hank? ' God always has an angel of help for those who do their duty. ' James Weber, ' 25. HOW TO RUN AN ALLIGATOR FARM To run an alligator farm you must have at least two things — a farm and an alligator. It is very easy to get a farm. Most any farmer will sell you his on the installment plan. Merely ask him his price, then agree to it, and he will ask you no questions. Now that you have a farm, the next thing to get is an alligator. Maybe some of you have seen an alligator, but it doesn ' t make any difference, for here is the definition right out of Wrigley ' s dictionary: Al-li-ga-tor — el larogto de Indias, or American crocodile. Since alligators are scarce they are hard to get, but there are several methods. You may pick your choice. First Method — Start your alligator farm next to someone else ' s, and when he isn ' t looking transplant one of the young alligators to your farm. The only difficulty to overcome is being sure that your neighbor does not see you in action. Second Method — This method is, perhaps, the most common. It is simple — taking an alligator from a distant farm and conveying it to your plantation. Alligators are very large, which makes it difficult to take one and get away with it unnoticed. But if you start practicing with toads and work your way up through bullfrogs, newts, lizards, salamanders, snakes and boaconstrictors, it will be simple for you to sneak off with an alligator concealed on your person. Practice makes perfect, you know. Third Method — This is the last method and really it is much the easiest. It is getting some alligator eggs and hatching the reptiles from them. Lost strayed or stolen eggs will do — it makes no difference. Alligator eggs are just like chicken eggs and you will lose money by getting the hen fruit by mistake. A good way to tell is to fry the egg. Alligator eggs are much tougher than the eggs of chickens. When you raise several hundred alligators (by the way, do not forget to water them once or twice a month) you can sell them to some shoe store. They use alligator hides in the manufacturing of shoe strings. Guaranteed not to rip, tear or rust — and to last longer than the shoe. Be sure and demand a high price and you will become wealthy over night. THE SENIOR CHRONICLES One-fifth of a score of years ago we did go forth from the grade schools. And it came to pass that in the selfsame year, that being the year of our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred and twenty-one, we did matriculate into the school called high. And, lo! there came a day not far distant from the day of our advent, when there came a great noise, as if the skies did split, and the fear of the principal did come upon us. And our master did say unto us: Behold, it is the sign of the auditorium. Go in peace, for about the next ten minutes, and have the great master tell unto thee the laws for the coming semester. And we rent our clothes and entered into the auditorium. And a great light shone through the skylight as Charles Emory the Great did climb to the platform. hi a great voice he began I did call thee here this morning — But at these words our knees did give way and we became almost as dead men before the fearless gaze of our instructor. But there came a day, one thousand four hundred and sixty days hence, that we no more did fear this man, for, lo! we are become seniors. For unto the world in general the word senior does mean king. And when this day did come we did hasten unto our good brother. Shorty, and did take from him the responsibility of the establishment. And it came to pass that Friday, May 22, did come this year after Thursday. And we did graduate with much noise from the orchestra, intermingling with the much loud yelling of the speaker, who did tell us what to do when we did come to life ' s stormy sea. And our hearts brake as we left, for we did doubt the ability of Charlie the Great to run our institution in our absence. Pox Vobiscum Americum. Armond Gemmer, ' 25. THE SPIDER AND THE ROSE— A FABLE A little spider was roaming about one day, looking for a place to build his home. At last he spied a beautiful rose bush. The spider crawled over to the rose stalk and said: May I built my home on the lower branches of this wonderful bush? The large red rose answered, haughtily: No; that would mar ray beauty. So the spider wearily crawled away. But in a short time he noticed an ugly milkweed. He gained courage and went to the plant. The spider begged the milkweed to let him build his home among its branches. The milk weed gladly replied: You may build your house on my stalk. The spider built his web among the most prominent leaves of the plant and both the spider and milkweed were contented. The tiny spider respected the ugly milkweed, because he was friendly, while he looked down upon the beautiful rose. Beauty is not always respected. Thyra Ade, ' 25. THE FACULTY Of course we ' ll start with Mr. Byers; We don ' t know what to say; We ' ll just say he is excellent — That ' s ' bout the only way. And then we ' ll take Miss Langley; She ' s pretty good, we guess; And tho ' she gave us Lorna Doone, We like her none the less. Miss Moore is fine, and yet they say Her lessons are so long; But maybe they are all right, too; Perhaps the kids are wrong. Young Kinsey, he ' s the coach this year; He drives an ancient bus. And how it hangs together is Quite wonderful to us. And Suter takes the prize bouquet; He teaches gym and chem; He buys a car ' bout every year — • I guess he pays for them. Miss Tyner teaches history now — She ' s from Decatur way; She does her part if you do yours; She ' s pretty good, they say. And Scudder, he ' s a fine old scout; He helps when ' er he can; But he is somethnig more than that — He ' s all in all a man. We can ' t take all; you know the rest. Our space is gone, you see; But, as a whole, they do their best — The High School Faculty. Benjamin Kizer, ' 25. iouov ' nauss ATHLETICS HAYDEN HARLOW Willie is one of those players who is always fighting, and who has proved himself a born athlete. He is noted for his long end runs and long gains, and as a drop-kicker of no little ability. Harlow is a three letter man, and he is taken from our midst this year by graduation and Dody. ELDON BUCHER Buch is noted for his flying tackles and his ability to snatch forward passes. As an end, he is well known for his speed and clean playing, and an excellent man on the offensive. He comes from the Bucher line of athletes, but his services are lost with this year ' s graduating class. ROBERT SKINNER Bob was one of the mainstays in the line in al- most every game of last season. He was equally as good either at tackle or guard, and many times he held the line just at the critical moment. Last season finished football for Skinner at H. H. S., and his absence in next year ' s eleven will be felt very much. HARRY SHIDELER Harry is one of the Vikings galloping Horse- men. Whenever the game called for a gain. Harry was right there with a line plung for an end run. Although Harry played only one year, he is a most valuable man to lose. MELVILLE KIRACOFE Although Melville had little chance to show his abihty in other years, he showed himself a most valuable guard in the line last season. Opponents found it a difficult matter to break through the line at this point, and found him hard to stop in offen- sive. Cotton is another man graduatmg this year. HARRY HERZOG Herzog was our popular diminutive quarterback for two years. During the last season he was the life and brains of the team, and his timely thinking saved the day in many cases. Harry is small, but mighty and swift ; and his services will be missed much next season. RICHARD BATTIEGER Dick has furnished a nucleus for the team for two successive years, although he was out of the lineup a greater part of last season with an injured finger. He was the central figure for the line, and his passing ability won many games for the Red and Black gndders. RAYMOND ZAHN Pete proved an invaluable end during the entire season, and played whirlwind ball from start to finish. Pete was most reliable in snatchmg a few forward passes when they came his way, and a reg- ular trap on defense. Pete is an unlucky senior, but he has served the Vikings faithfully for two years. 1 kghKiSMtr ' GEORGE SCHEIBER George was one of the Viking ' s most valuable men during the entire season. George is noted for his flying tackles and end runs. Perhaps one ob- jection to Scheiber is that he will be with the team only another year. He accounted for a goodly num- ber of touchdowns and is largely responsible for the excellent record made by the team. EUGENE FROST Stud is Huntington ' s six-foot blonde who played tackle in all of the games last season. He was the biggest player on the team, and our opponents struck the stonewall quite often. It is rumored that Gene will move to Kokomo this summer. If such rumors are true, Huntington will surely lose a val- uable man. LEON SOUERS Souers stepped into the line when Battieger was put out of the game with injuries, and proved him- self capable of holding his own against other huskies. A most timely find, and a strong candidate for a berth on next year ' s squad. DON SMITH Don is perhaps the smallest and speediest back field man that the Vikings had during the entire season. He is rather light — but just let some one try to tackle him. Smitty is one of the reasons for the excellent showing made by the team and he is with us again next year. ORVAL BUTTS Durinn last season, Orval showed Coach Kinsey thai little fellows can buck the line just as hard as the bigger ones, especially when it is necessary for a yard or two to be gained by a line plunge. Orval has two more years in which to serve the Vikings, and we expect wonders from him next year. CLAYTON BUCHER Bucher is an athlete of no small amount of ability, and he as one of the most versatile players on last season ' s squad. Clayton has two more years in high school and he is expected to be a regular on next year ' s squad. JOE BRIGGS Small, but athletically inclined, Briggs stepped out last season and became one of Coach Kmsey ' s reg- ulars. Joe sustamed an injury during last season, but was only out of a few games. A most valuable tackle and only a Junior this year. Coach Kinsey ought to have a good eleven next year. GLENN HUMMER Molly is an athlete and football player in every sense of the word. The Big Blonde ' proved to be one of Huntington ' s greatest ends and an all-con- ference star. Hummer has already served H. H. S. for two years, and he will be with us next year again. HOMECOMING DAY The Second Annual Homecoming was held last October 31 and it was one of the biggest events of the year. The day was celebrated through the eflorts of the senior class, who had charge of the program. The program consisted of a pep meeting, a parade, the presentation of blankets and the game between Columbia City and the Vikings. Many of the downtown merchants closed their places of business and went to the game and much support was given by the public in general, together with High School students and fans from Columbia City. At the Indian field the Red and Black eleven were presented with large red blankets with black borders and a large black H in the center. These blankets were presented to the team by the merchants of Huntington m behalf of the services that the team rendered, and to show the interest that the merchants had taken in the team. Bankets were presented by J. W. Caswell to each player on the squad for personal ownership. One of the attractive features of the day was the Boys ' Band from Columbia City High School. The local High School appreciated the fine music given by the visiting organization and the sportsmanship of all the supporters of the opponents of the Red and Black helped to make the day enjoyable. The Vikmg eleven downed the Maroon and Gold warriors by a 4 to 6 score. Huntington came back after the Peru defeat and played one of the best games of the reason to sustain the former record made in earlier games. The homecoming game was a marked success and much spirit and unity was shown m the large attendance and joint celebration. FOOTBALL WRITEUP AND SCHEDULE In the third season of football that Huntington High School has known of in many years. Coach Kinsey placed on the gridiron an excellent squad of athletes. Better support was given the eleven this year than in other years, and by the remarkable record that the Red and Black made Huntington was placed on the map in football circles. The support given by the general public of Huntington shows that football is taking a prominent place in High School athletics. Coach Kinsey had seven regulars left over from last season around which to build a team. Many new candidates appeared at the first call for practice and a well-seasoned eleven represented Huntington High School. A schedule of eight games was played, four of which were with Wabash Valley conference members. The Vikings lost two games and tied one with Warsaw. The Kinseymen scored a total of 1 8 points to their opponents ' 98, which shows that no small amount of ability was displayed during the entire season. Much interest was centered around the Wabash Valley Football Conference this year. The members of the conference are Wabash, South Side of Fort Wayne, Peru, Logansport, Kokomo and Huntington. Wabash succeeded in capturing the cup last season and Huntington placed second, with a percentage of .750. Four conference games were played and the winner was judged on the number of games won and lost. Huntington met its Waterloo at the hands of Peru and thus lost out in the champion- ship race. Coach Kinsey will lose eight regular players in this year ' s graduating class out of the sixteen letter men. Those players receiving letters were Hummer, Briggs, C. Bucher, Smith, Butts, Souers, Frost, Scheiber, Zahn, Battieger, H. Herzog, Kiracofe, Shideler, Skinner, E. Bucher and Harlow. All but the last eight players will be with Huntington in the next season, and, with the other eight left, the Vikings will have a good chance to win the conference cup and a large majority of the other scheduled games. The schedule and results of last season ' s games are as follows: Huntington Warsaw — here Huntington 18 Logansport — there Huntington 19 Kokomo 9 — ther Huntington 57 Decatur — there Huntington 13 South Side 6 — there Huntington Peru 47— here Huntington 24 Columbia City 6 — here Huntington 7 Central Catholic 30 — there HAYDEN HARLOW Harlow was our only regular left from last year ' s squad. Although handicapped by an injured finger right in the middle of the season Willie was a shining Ught on the squad whenever he was in the game. Another whom we lose this year. ELDON BUCHER Eidon alternated with Harlow at the floor guard position throughout the season. When Harlow was injured in the Jefferson game Bucher filled his place to the satisfaction of all during the remainder of the season. Eldon is lost to us by graduation this year. HOWARD KRIEGBAUM Modesty certainly lives up to his name. It is as hard to make him talk about himself as it is to go through him at back guard. Howard is the last of the fvriegbaums, that constant source of excellent ma- terial for H. H. S. net squads. Kriegbaum was always for the success of the team and school. We lose Howard through graduation. EVERETT GOSHORN Goshorn is that angular center who fitted into the teamwork so well toward the end of the season. An expert at tipping them in from under the basket he was our only hope on some occasions. T-Bone is a Senior. EUGENE FROST Here is the big boy who made them all think twice before they came under the basket. About the middle of the season Gene captured the back guard berth and occupied it to a nicety through the remainder of the games. Frost is a Junior. CARL NEWELL Newell plays either forward or floorsuard. One of the first ten throughout the season. Carl rapidly developed into a finished player. Newell is a Junior and we look for him to ably fill a position on next year ' s squad. MANFORD FORDYCE Peck is that flashy forward who dazzled our op- ponents with his brilliant floorwork and shooting. Paired with Smith at forward he worked to per- fection. Fordyce is another whom we have to rely on next year. GLENN HUMMER Here is that tall flaxen haired athlete. Not con- tent with starring on the football and basketball squads, Molly is now getting a good start in baseball. Hummer could always be relied upon and was the mainstay of the squad. Molly ' has two more years of athletic competition so we ex- pect great thmgs from him. EARL HUMMER Earl flashed up as a coming star near the last of the season. Earl pushed the regular forwards all season and made the squad in time to go to Koko- mo. We are expecting great things of Hummer, as he has another year of school. DON SMITH Smith was our littlest man and incidently our fastest. Being small he is able to slip through the defense and is a consistent source of worry to the opposing team under the basket. Smitty has an- other year m which to finish his high school career. RAYMOND ZAHN Zahn has not been with us for al! four years of his hinh school course. On comine to H. H. S. Pete jumped into athletics and has been there ever since. Pete was one of the defunct Horsemen but carried on through the season like a veteran. Another good man lost this year. CLARENCE SCOTT Scott is the third member of that lanky trio. Combined with Williams and Zahn they formed an offensive that was hard to stop. Scott was a hard fighter throughout the season. Scott ' s efforts were appreciated even if he was unable to make the first team. Another of the numerous seniors we lose this year. CLARE HOLLEY Clare was rightly dubbed the shootin ' fool. The best part if it was that he made a good per- centage of his shots. Holley is also a very clever dribbler. Another good man lost by graduation. HARRY SHIDELER Shideler is that husky floorguard who generally persuaded the opposing forwards that it was not good policy to rush in under the basket. Harry was a mainspring in the offense, taking the ball down the floor to such a position that the forwards could get under the basket. Harry is lost to us this year. MELVIN BOLINGER Bolinger has been with us only one season, but in that short space of time he has shown some real basketbalL A fighter all the time he made the first team during a part of the season. Yet another go- ing out of our midst. ROLLIN WILLIAMS Dusly sure made ihe first team guards step. On account of his great height he was a valuable asset to the second team. Dusty could generally be de- pended upon to slip a couple of baskets in over the heads of the opposing guards. Williams graduates this year. CLAYTON BUCHER Clayton reminds us in a good many ways of his brother, Oum. We fully expect him to de- velop into as good a player. Perhaps as fast as any on the floor Clayton also showed that he knew what to do at the right lime. Buchcr has another year to play m. MARVIN COBLE Coble is that husky young Sophomore floorguard who has been stopping all opponents who wish to score from under the basket. Coble played hard and is rpidly learning the finer points. We look upon Coble as one of our promismg players for next year. JOE BRIGGS Joe is the boy who defended the Reserves ' goal throughout the season and did it well. A stone wall on defense Joe managed to get a basket now and then. Briggs has another promising year ahead of him. BERT ANSON Bert was right there when a back guard was needed. Alternating with Briggs this pair formed a defense that proved impenetrable on more than one occasion. Bert was an expert at taking the ball off the backboard. Anson will be with us next year. ORVAL BUTTS Butts is the man who showed up so well at Clear Creek when the Reserves went out and took them down a peg. Clem was pushing hard for a berth on the first team at the close of the season. Butts is a Soph and has an excellent chance for the team next season. . 4y GUETHLER ' S ,, j p - ' BUDDIES y Confectionery and Soda . c, Young Men ' s Smalt App rci The Store On the Corner yj) HUNTINGTON, INDIANA ' J 1924-25 Date Dec. 3 Huntington Score ) y9 ppo eafsj  Opponent ' s Score Ji Huntington Dec. 6 South Side (Ft.

TOURNAMENT The sectional tournament held at the High School this spring was, perhaps, the most successful in the history of the local school. Twelve teams were entered, all being from Huntington County. There were several upsets in the tournament, notably the defeat of warren by Clear Creek in the semi-finals. Warren had been counted on as a sure finalist, but was forced to succumb before the strong attack of the Clear Creek squad. The Red and Black squad was not forced to exert themselves in the least during the tournament. Jefferson Center, Bippus, and Clear Creek fell before the Vikings. The Huntington squad scored 124 points to their opponents ' 27 in the sectional meet. The Vikings received a full share of the honors. Hummer, Smith and Frost were all placed on the all-county team. The Vikings were put out of the tournament play in the Regional meet at Kokomo in their second round game. In the first game the Red and Black squad defeated the flashy Liberty Center team by a score of 22 to 20. Liberty Center went strong in the first half and at the rest period were leading, 14 to 6, by virtue of their uncanny ability to sink shots from the middle of the court. In the second half the Vikings got together and soon tied up the score with shots from under the basket. Huntington forged ahead to a four-point lead and held it until the last few seconds, when Liberty Center made a basket, making the final score 22 to 20. Smith and Goshorn worked well under the basket during the last half, while Frost did some fine defensive work. In the second round the Vikings were defeated by Marion by the overwhelming score of 50 to 25. Marion played excellent ball throughout and displayed uncanny accuracy on their basket shooting. Marion made 24 of 50 shots at the basket. G. Hummer and Frost were mentioned in the all-Regional selections. The school authorities showed their appreciation of the splendid work accomplished by the team during the past season by sending the squad to Indianapolis to witness the state finals. SENIOR TEAM, CLASS CHAMPS CLASS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT The Senior boys ' basketball team took the class Championship this year by defeating the Sophomores in the finals of the tournament. The Sophomores won the championship from the Seniors last year by a one pomt margin. Eight members of the Senior team were from the High School Reserves, while two were from the Y Celts. In the first round of the tournament, the Sophomores easily defeated the Juniors. The Juniors fought hard, but were out-classed. Souers for the Juniors, and Kindler, Miller, and Butts for the Sophomores all looked good for next year ' s High School teams. In the second game, the Freshmen gave the Seniors a scare by being only one point behind in the first half. The weight of the Seniors told, however, and they won by a good score. All the Freshmen played well, and Hosier, Berringer, Heaston, and Warken- SENIOR GIRLS ' TEAM tien looked good for next year ' s team. Briggs, Zahn, and Shideler played best for the Seniors. The Seniors got away to an early lead in the finals, and played a great defensive game which the Sophomores could not go through. When the gun went off, the Seniors were on the long end of the score. The playing of Williams, Scott and Zahn, for the Seniors, and Miller and Butts for the Sophomores were especially good. Players on the teams were: Freshmen: Heaston, Shaffer, W. Newell, Hosier, Warkentein, Berringer, Petrie, and J. Kindy. Sophomores: G. Miller, Kindler, Butts, Swain, Coble, G. Smith, E. Hoch, Pratt, O. Shidler, and G. Herzog. Juniors: Urshel, Wertenberger, Carey, Souers, McClintock, Brodie, Pitrucelle, and Young. Seniors: Zahn, Scott, Williams, Briggs, Holley, Shidler, Hildebrand, Warkentein, Anson, and Bolinger. GIRLS ' BASKET BALL Gins ' basket ball practice was held in the High School gym during the season on Monday ' s and Wednesday ' s from seven to nine o ' clock in the evening. About thirty freshman girls turned out for the first practice while about twelve FRESHMAN GIRLS ' TEAM Seniors, five Juniors and three Sophomores were present. Owing to the inexperience of the Freshmen, Miss Phihps he!d several special practices for them before any games were played. Two teams were organized, a Freshman team and a Senior team. The Senior team was composed, with the exception of one girl, of the members of the Junior team of last year. Ruth Fulton was elected captain of the Senior team, while Annabelie Utter was chosen captain of the Freshman team. The first few practices were spent entirely in learning different plays, throws and dribbles. Several games were played between these two teams during the year, the Seniors winning every game. The Senior team was composed of Ruth Fulton and Edna Shearer, forwards; Dorothy Weber and Edna Helvie, guards; and Mary Shultz, Berniece Wynn, and Marian Weaver, centers. The Freshman team was composed of Annabelie Utter, Catherine Lengel, and Mar- tha Scudder, forwards; Josephine Hawkins and Ruth Adams, guards; and Alberta Newell and Liliosa Eisenhauer, centers.

KINSEY We are firmly convinced that no school in the slate has a coach who is a harder worker for the success of his team and school than W. H. Kinsey. Turning out the best football team the school has had for years and then stepping onto the hard- wood to produce a creditable basketball squad, he has finished the school year in excellent shape by molding a baseball squad from the remnants of last year ' s learn. Thought of by the team as one of them, he has developed an excellent spirit of cooper- ation between coach and team . JOSEPHINE GLENN Dody has served the High School most faithfully for several years as the principal yell leader. If anyone was able to make the girls yell it was Dody; and not only that, but she could also make the fellows howl. The school spirit and pep was kept up through her efforts; and through this spirit, the team was able to win many games which otherwise might have been lost. Red and Black will lose the services of Miss Glenn by her graduation this spring. WALTER YOUNG Walter has also given his services to the High School and to the support of the teams by his ability to lead the boisterous sex of H. H. S. Walter was called into service about the middle of the basketball season, and since that time he has gained much popularity with his yell lead- ing ability. Walter will be with us again next year, but will have to find a new mate. Per- haps Gladys would serve the purpose. ■ o BOYS ' GYM Much interest has been stimulated in physical education at Huntington High School through the efforts of A. W. Suter, physical instructor. Huntington is one ot the few high schools in the state to offer this line of athletics in the high school curriculum and much interest is centered in this line. Mr. Suter offers the students a full line of apparatus work which includes work on rings, mats, parallel bars, horizontal bars and on the horse. The annual gymnasium exhibit was held April 1 3. The carnival was well attended and the proceeds will go to purchasing new equipment for the local gym. Medals and miniature loving cups were awarded to the first, second and third best on each piece of apparatus. The awarding of these medals and cups serves to arouse interest in physical education. A new line of athletics was undertaken by Mr. Suter in the development of a track team. Most of the work was done by the gym classes and the team was picked almost exclusively from them. We owe Mr. Suter a great deal in the advancement he has made in physical education and for the interest he has taken in track work. GIRLS ' GYM Physical education is a popular subject among our High School girls. Two years are required of all girls, but many girls, realizing the importance of the subject, elect it the other two years of their course. By gymnastics we understand movements chosen with the object of giving the body an all-around and harmonious development. Not only the physical element is taken into consideration, but also the mental faculties are developed. Among the physical aims of gymnastics are good health, suppleness, general agility, increase of strength and promotion of beauty of body. The period is divided into three parts. Part one consists of marching and tactics, part two callisthenics and part three games or folk dances. The exercises vary so that all muscles are developed. The games consist of playground games, indoor baseball, volley ball, relays and other ball games. The games teach us the value of real sports- manship. Last winter basketball was enjoyed by the freshman and seniors. They practiced two nights each week. The girls not only learned to play, but they learned to referee a game. Miss Phillips proved to be faithful and patient with the girls. The girls had no public games, but their experiences were well worth their time. In the spring volley ball, indoor baseball and tennis tournaments were held. The volley ball games were played in class periods and the finals at sixth periods. About forty girls signed up for tennis and many girls turned out for indoor baseball. The physical education demonstration was given April 23-24. Every girl taking physical education took an active part, which helped to make it a great success. The demonstration included drills with wands, dumb bells and Indian clubs, folk dances in costume, stunts and contests. The proceeds are to be used in purchasing equipment for the gym. After the demonstration hikes and out-of-door games were enjoyed. All girls taking physical education agree that gymnastic work is interesting and beneficial in every way. Bernice Wynn.

There ' s a Reason There is a reason hy ' McCormick-Deering Tractors are increasing in popularity by leaps and bounds. There is a reason why these sturdy, completely equipped tractors are rapidly replacing cheaper tractors in all sections of the country. There is a reason, also, why the farmers and orchardists of one county in California bought, during 1924, over a hun- dred McCormick-Deerings — more than all other makes combined in the same period. The reason is that McCormick-Deering 10-20 and 15-30 Tractors are the long-lived kind, and are by far the most economical per year of service. The crankshaft and crankshaft ball bearings in every McCormick-Deering are guaranteed against breakage for life. There are ball and roller bearings at 28 points, and all wearing parts, including cylinders, are replaceable. Entire frame is in one sturdy unit. All gears and import- ant wearing parts are enclosing, running in oil. All parts are easily ac- cessible, easily removed. Complete equipment includes throttle governor, wide platform, adjustable drawbar, Alemite lubricating system, impulse magneto, fenders, etc. Weight is distributed perfectly for good traction and safe operation. Short turning radius for convenient handling. All in all, the McCormick-Deering is the tractor for every farmer in this community. ' Let us show you what it will do for you, then we ' ll tell you how easily you can own one. ' Good equipment makes a good farmer better Now, if you have it in mind, come in and see us about a McCormick- Deering Tractor!
