I hate to see our class disbandg Oh! good old naughty-nine, How true thy members are to yon: What glory now is thine. 'I'hy work is all completely done: In thee we find no degradation, So let us raise our torch of wisdom 'l'o liffht the eomine' ffeneration.

ED. HAM. In the year nineteen hundred six, on the 20th day of September, the resi- dents of First street, between the South Shore Railway Station and the Old High School Building, were surprised and overjoyed to see a procession of merry and enthusiastic pupils passing by their places of dwelling. The pro- cession was made up of strange faces belonging to happy boys and girls of all kinds-fat and lean, stupid and wise, and brave and cowardly. They were inexperienced in High School work and therefore were carefree. Every day they passed and the honorable dwellers of First Street never tired of watching for them and when they had passed would always return to their work, humming some popular melody. This was the honorable and praisworthy class of 1910. At first they were unorganized but later on in the year organized under the leadership of Herbert Hodgson, presidentg Laura Moody, vice presidentg Viola Jones, sec- retary, and John Neary, treasurer. After the First-streetians became accustomed to the new faces they rec- ognized the class of nineteen ten as the representation of ten different na- tions. There were five representatives of America, six of France, twenty- four of England, including two from Scotland and five from Ireland, three of Norway, eighteen of Sweden,, one from Egypt and one of both Poland and Persia, making sixty-five in all. Fifty-five were born and reared in Ish- peming, two in Marquette, one in Negaunee, two in Ohio, Pennsylvania and VVisconsin also claimed two. In june 1907 A. D. the procession ceased and when it next appeared its number was decreased by three. In May 1908 new leaders took the places of the old ones. Roy Yung- bluth was elected president, Marguerite Mclincroe, vice president, Helen Brown, secretary, and Ed. Islam, treasurer. September 1908 took the class down to the new High School and many were the wailings of the First-streetians. The merry band of IQO6 Freshmen were now studious Juniors. On May I4 the customary junior Reception for the Seniors took place. Over two hundred couples attended, and the hall was beautifully decorated. For many weeks the worthy juniors worked to carry out their elaborate decorations. Their efforts were not in vain, however, for the Seniors be- stowed upon them the compliment that it was the best reception that had ever taken place. I And now the time draws near, when they shall not be Juniors any more, but shall be busy Seniors. And as they look back on their three years of High School life they feel repaid for their efforts to be kind and gracious to their teachers and enthusi- astic in their undertakings. 1l1'110I'S President .............

VVhen the class of 1908 left the lligh School, they dedicated the faithful little spider, who watched them through their four years, to the class of 1911. It will now begin tl1e history of this worthy class. The class of 1911 o11 the whole, entered the school as orderly Freshmen should, showing by their diligence and spirit, their great desire to finish the great work they had started. As a class we now look well and prosperous, and seem day by day to ad- vance, at least from our standpoint, of course an unbiased one. At the be- ginninlg of the second year of our High School course we found that we still retained our large number of 120. Month after month the black bright-eyed little spider has kept a most strict watch over us, and was not in the least shocked, at certain doings of members. For instance, when the Assembly Room door was smashed last year by a few careless members, he merely shook his wise little head, and, hoping for the best, continued his endless task of watching. But wait, not endless surely, for in two years, in 1911, he will have the supreme satisfaction of seeing each member handed his or her diploma, and then, but not until then, will he be able to stop watching. At the beginning of the year, when we began our studies in the new High School, our little chaperon had to be removed and placed i11 new surround- ings, but his first feeling of strangeness was soon overcome by his great delight at seeing each member become wiser and more sober. They became more industrious as a whole and alittle later they even began to pay their dues. Then too they have accomplished much in baseball. The team has become stronger and more able, and it is believed that they have a fu- ture to be envied. But in March, 1909, at the oratorical contest, the little spider, received a' shock that made him sit up and take notice. The class of 1911 showed that they had speakers to be proud of, and those who next year, would easily be able to carry off all the honors for Ishpeming. Again on May 18th others showed their true worth to the class whose future is as- sured, and we feel therefore that we can reasonably hope that when the class of 1911 leaves the school, it will leave behind a memory worth having, and each member will be able to say, Nothing VVithout Effort.

MVC, the Freshman Class, entered about one hundred and forty strong in the fall of 1908. As a class we consider ourselves fortunate in having such a fine new building in which to study and we also congratulate ourselves on the fine corps of teachers. ' The motto of the class is Nike,', meaning victory. Wfhat could be bet- ter and what does it mean? It means that the Freshman Class will be suc- cessful in baseball, and everything that it undertakes, and our yellow and white will indeed be a badge of honor. NVC had no more than settled down to work when the Sophomores and the other classes decided that we needed hazing. And they tried it with very indifferent success, for when they saw our giants, they did not dare to at- tack us in a bunch, but like bullies attacked us one by one and made feeble effort to be funny at our expense. But some of us were obliged to give elo- quent orations, while others climbed a small pole, high enough to converse with the moon, and others sang beautiful ballads. But all these things are trifies, because the Freshmen are equal to any thing. After awhile, things quieted down so that we could get started at our work in earnest. Everything went smoothly for the Freshmen until the first monthly exams took place. Then we were terrior stricken, not knowing what to expect from our teachers. But after this ordeal was over we felt more at home. exams took place. Then we were terior stricken, not knowing what to ex- pect from our teachers. But after this ordeal was over we felt more at home. The next important event in our class history was ouritirst class-meet- ing, which was called for the purpose of electing officers. This was a very remarkable meeting. There was much business to transact, but no one could be found to make a motion, so the Chairman told them that they could go home. Soon the Christmas vacation came. and it was the most welcomed event ol the year. The half yearly exams came all too soon. Not a Freshman will soon forget those four terrible days. Our honor and dignity counted for nothing. VVe were scattered all over the room. Some of us are still wondering how they knew just the questions that we were not prepared on. But there is an end to all things. After the exams were over, we were very anxious to find out our marks. The teachers got very tired of our persistance in asking for them. The ones that passed were glad, but the ones who failed were blaming every one but themselves. T Our second meeting to elect officers was a success. Gur principal be- ing present had something to do with this. His stern eye 'held them in Check, but some of the bold ones were able to carry on the business, The peculiar thing about the meeting was that three boys and one girl were elected to fill the ofiices. The Freshman baseball team has been organized, and we have also played a part of a game with the Sophomores. We have the best team in the High School and we are hot after the pennant. Our pitcher is a regu- lar league pitcher, and is a dandy player. The other members of our team zne also good players. The Upper classes also have fairly good teams, but ours is the best of all. Our motto will mean a good deal to us, because it means victory. A Our next meeting came on May 3rd. The meeting was for the purpose of selecting a motto, class colors and flower. It took quite a time to get the motto, but as you know, we at last selected Nike, meaning victory. The colors chosen were yellow and white. The rose was chosen for the flower of the class. I will now close for here history changes to prophecy. I HERBERT POTTER. Freshmen President. . . . . .HP1liBEli'l' P0'.l l'ER Treasurer. . . ....

The Girls' Literary, Society was formed on the fifteenth of Feb. IQO9 by the girl members of the Senior and Iunior classes interested in literary pursuits. While the primary purpose of the club has always been to instruct, this has been done in a delightfully interesting way which has aroused en- thusiasm among the students. The programs given at the weekly meetings are largely attended. The plan of work taken is the lives of the dilierent writers, one author and his works being taken at each meeting. When dra- matists are studied scenes are given in costume. French and German pro- grams were given, as were debates for a diversion. The interest shown among the members of the club andthe splendid work done has aroused the enthusiasm among the students and in three months the membership has in- creased from eighteen to thirty-seven. The Seniors who are members of the club and who helped to form it extend their best wishes 'to thc society and hope it may prosper. GIRLS' LITERIARY SOCIETY.

Last year the work of organizing a Boys' Debating Club was taken up by Wellixigton Burt and Mr. 1-Iesler. The scheme proved a failure how- ever. Probably due to a lack of interest among the members, and the club lasted but two weeks. In the fall of 1908 Mr. Phelps and Mr. Parish took up the work and after some difficulty the club was formed under a strong consitution. The members at first showed a lack of debating ability but in spite of this, the progress was most wonderful. The meetings of the club were held weekly and the attendance was always large due to the fact that interesting programs were rendered. During the second semester the wonderful work of the club was show- ing itself in the ability of every member. Nowhere could the work of the club be more plainly demonstrated than a debate in which Mr. .Parish and Donald Hayden were opponents. Donald by use of his quick wit and cool head defeated his opponent and Won much glory from his audience. VVe hope that the work of this club will be kept up and that the spirit shown in naughty-nine will be ever present. ' BOY-S' DEBATING CLUB.

Most of the players had at least a years' exeprience so the team as a whole worked well together. After one week of practice to our great disappointment we found that we had three ineligible players in training with us, which was no fault of ours, but due to the neglect of a person or persons in sending us the rules of the '08 used by the Upper Peninsula Schools. The rule Pupils entering school after September I5 are ineligible to play, was responsible for us los- ing great strength on our school team. Although disappointed we were in no way discouraged. The following week, October Io, the team departed for Munising with all kinds of encouragement from the High School. On entering the field Saturday afternoon we thought we were in for a de- feat, but to our surprise and delight we ran up a score of 35 to o. Arrived home Saturday at midnight. After a weeks' more hard practice we again took our departure for Mar- quette Saturday October 17. On entering the field a discussion arose which was settled by our princi- pal, Mr. Phelps, we playing with two substitutes. The game, which was called at 3:50, ended in a victory for our team 30 to 0. OCtOlJCF'24 we played the hardest game of the season in which Negaunee scored 4 points against us. This game, being played under unfavorable weather, was the hardest ofthe season, and left us a weary and much disap- poined lot of fellows. A return game played with Marquette October 31, at the Union Park was again a victory for us, the score being 22 to 0. Although we were not as successful as other teams of this High School our average is far ahead of most of the teams of 'o8. I Munising ...... - ...... O. Ishpeming . . .... 35.

Mr. Phelps in all his dealings with the team was in every way fair, not only for the interest of the team but also for the I-ligh School as a whole. If other principals and officials had been as fair there would have been no cause for L111p1C21S21I1'f CliSCL1SSiO11S that arose concerning the football rules of 'o8. . A ' ROY MATTHEWS, Heman Allen-Center. Center is a hard position to till and requires a man who has a cool head and who does not pass the ball at the slightest sign of the quarterbacks movement but who waits until the signal for the ball tof be passed is given. Allen is very accurate at passing the ballg his quarterback gets the ball in one spot every time. He plays a strong defensive game and makes many tackles, which is difficult to do from the center position. He stands 5 foot 9 inches and in training weights 138 pounds.-H. D. William Keese-Full Back. Bill seems to be a mark for receiving all the hard knocks and bumps of the game, and after each game was almost a cripple. But having a great deal of football nerve and grit he played each game. A great line bucker and has often negotiated 20 and 30 yards on line bucks. A defensive player of great ability, he took care of his territory and was everywhere, else, where the ball happened to be. I-le stands 5 feet IT inches, and weighs 145 pounds when in training.-H. D. J. W. Eckelberry-Coach. Standing 6 foot 2 inches he was well qualified to look over the field of candidates and pick his team. A coach that worked harder for victories could never be found, and no one took our deafeat with more regret. He worked heart and soul with the team and it was through no fault of his that we did not land the championship. I-Ie had the confidence of all the play- ers and the respect of everyone. And we all wish him better luck with his future teams.-H. D. Henry Perrault--Right End. Fib as he is called on the gridiron is one of the best ends that the school has turned out in some years. A deadly tackler, and a man never drawn in on trick formations. He can carry the ball for gains whenever called. on, and never misses a forward pass. .Being a fast runner, he gets down under punts in swift style and generally nails his man . I-le can be used to a great ad- vantage in the back field, and has frequently filled one of the positions there. He stands 5 feet 6 inches and in training weighs 140 pounds.-H. D. Dave Lind-Left Guard. Although being handicapped greatly by the loss of his right arm, Dave more than held his own, and the best of every one of his opponents. He can play any position on the team with the exception of center and quarterback. But he shines at guard, charging almost Hat on the ground and has repeat- edly downed the opposing backs as they received the ball. A great play- er to rip holes in the line and no gains are made through him, He stands 5 feet 5 inches and in training weighs 134 pounds.--I-I. D, Thomas Bargh-Right Half Back. Tom, as he is known on the field, while only weighing 130 pounds, was one of the foremost players on the team, and plays a great game both offen- sively and defensively. Having played for two seasons previous, he was well acquainted with the game, and needed very few pointers He has a way of running which makes him a hard man to tackle, and also 1nakes use of the straight arm. A good ground gainer and a punter of some ability. He stands 5 foot 6 I-2 inches.-H. D. Ted Butler-Quarterback. Here is the midget of the team, standing only 5 foot 2 inches, and tipping the scales at 125 pounds. Although small of size, Ted is not found wanting in any other way, and filled the difficult position for two seasons. A good field general and as excellent a man to handle the ball, very few fumbles be- ing caused by him. Ted plays back in the field on the defense and has made many good runs while returning punts.-H. D. Roy Matthews-Captain and Left Halfback. Having the responsibility of captain upon his shoulders did not inter- fere with his playing in the least. As this was his third year on the High School team, he knew every wrinkle in the game, and made use of his knowledge in every way. A sure tackler, whether in a scrimmage or in the open field, and his speed in running down men, who had clear fields, saved his team from being scored on in many instances. A ground gainer of a scarce variety, he could always be depended on for at least 5 yards. Being a place kicker of great ability he was invaluable to the team and the team would be in sore straits without him.. I-Ie stands 5 foot 6 1-2 inches, and in training weighs I30 pounds.-H. D. Herbert Devine-Guard. Buster, as he is known to his fellow men, stands 5 feet IO inches, and with the aid of three scales, we finally determined his weight as 200 pounds. Duster has had about two years experience with the High School team, and has always stood his ground against other players. As a defensive player, he cannot be excelled, his equal cannot be found in school teams. By one move of his powerful right arm, he laid his opponents flat. on the ground. Buster will never be forgotten by his fellowmen, his presence always carried great weight in the team.-A. S. Charles Markert-Right Tackle. Centre is Dud,s regular position but he was switched to tackle, be- cause a change in the line up, called him there. Standing 6 ft. high, he is no small matter to get the best of, and more than one of his opponents came to that conclusion early in the game. He has a way. of handling him- self, which makes others think he is Slow, but when the occasion needs that he do some fast work he is right there, and ready to deliver the goods . A strong defensive player and makes a great many tackles in the game. Fills his position in every way, and was a valuable cog in the machine. He weighs 165 lbs. in training.-H. D. Theodore Hoglund-Left Tackle. Playing the tackle position for two seasons, Ted was very familiar with the location, and? took care of every nook around the place. He has a way of charging, which he originated himself, and has yet to find his equal al breaking through the line. He is a very speedy man, although weighing 170 lbs. and always to be relied upon to carry the ball for some distance. A sure tackler and never misjudges his man. He stands 5 ft. 6 inches. -Isl. D. Gordon Thoney-Left End. Although this was Tony's first year on the team, he played a strong game, and filled his position in a very satisfactory way. A fast runner, he covered a great deal of ground in running down punts, and is a steady end in every manner. He can be used in the back field when called upon and being able to get off long and accurate forward passes, he was often switched to a backlield position. Hestands 5 ft. 9 1-2 inches and weighs 149 lbs. when in training.-H. D. W A v X NYU HR Vx 52' 'Jkt CnN-2 3'i' 1' .

Classmates of Naughty Nine: To-clay we are gathered together in our last class meeting: for the last time we are met as an independent body. Tomorrow night we meet again but then under the control of the teachers who have so faithfully guided us thru the paths of learning for four years. Tonight is our night and it should ever remain one of the brighest memories of our lives. It is the end of four happy years. I-lere we have formed those friendships which will last through life. Our race is run and we are the winners. Tomorrow night we will be crowned with laurel as were the Grecian victors- in the days of long ago. And just as they trained so We have trained unceasingly for the final race. Our number is not as great as when we begang some have fallen along the way, never to rise againg some have fallen whose fall has only spurred them on to a firmer resolve to reach the goal, two have been taken from the race by the Almighty Being who rules the Universe Although they are not present with us in person, they are with us in spirit, and look down upon us tonight. WVe have won our first race, but there are many more to be won in life's contest and for these we must pre- pare. Graduation is not a stepping outg it is either a stepping up, a promo- tion to a higher class or a dropping to at lower one. It is a mistake to say, To-day education ends, tomorrow life begins. The process is contin- uous. And, classmates, let our future achievemets sustain the record made here, and may it be justly said. Of all the classes that have graduated from the Ishpeming High school, the class of Naughty Nine is the great- est. Let us all strive to do our very best in the profession or labor which we choose. Let us always keep before us our motto, Diligence conquers diFFiculties,', and apply it to all we do, and with this determination we will conquer every obstacle that lies in the way of success. A college education is not necessary to complete success although it -is a great help, and no one should be without it in these days when it is so easily secured. For, after all, of what avail is a college education if we neglect that great teacher-Life. One of the values of a college education, says Emerson, is to show a boy its little avail. Hamilton and jefferson and Madison and Webster were college meng but Franklin, VVashington, Clay and Lincoln were not. Life, after all life, is the greatest school: facts are teachers, experiences, lc-ssong friends are guides, work is a master. Teaching itself is method of learning. joy carries a divine rod and discovers fountains. Sorrow . is an astronomer and shows us the stars. No one can get the full benefit of the school of life who does not welcome the silent and deep instruction of nature, This earth Q11 which we live, these heavens abevs QS? these dumb companions of our work and play, this wondrous living furniture and blos- soming drapery of our school room-all have their lessons to impart. And as we go through life, let us not scorn the great school which the Almighty offers us on every side. Let us take that great teaching of Socrates, Know thyself and in learning ourselves we will soon learn to know others. Shakespeare would not have been able to write the great dramas which he did if he had not studied from this great schoolg nor would Lincoln have risen to the great position which he did if he had not known men thoroughlyg nor would VVashington, Hamilton, and Jefferson have reached their heights of prominence had they not drunk deep from the same inspiration. Classmates. it would be unworthy of us, if we did not thank the teachers who have guided and instructed us all these happy years, who have lifted us when we have fallen: who have cheered us on when we were downheart- edg who laughed with us when we were happy. To you, Teachers, we owe what we are, and to you our eternal gratitude must always be due. And now classmates comes the saddest time of all, the parting, now our paths divide and we enter different fields of life. Happy years have we labored together as a body, and now we must part. Our virtue, honor and reputation are concerned in supporting with dignity the character we now bear. Let no motive, therefore, make us swerve from our duty, violate our vows or betray our trust, but let us be true and faithful. I Thus we will render ourselves deserving of the honor that will be conferred, and -merit the confidence reposed. i WALTER STERN E. l'1:fg 1 ., IVYORATION. ,,,..,f7 ' 'T I. il lt was the twenty-third day of May in the year eighteen hundred and sixty-Eve. The great Civil War had at last come to a close. It had been a long and bitter struggle. Victory had come to the Union soldiers, who had fought with such skill, courage, and perserverance as Americans only can. Before mustering out, the two armies of Grant and Sherman were gathered at the city of Wasliiiigtoii, on their homeward march and were received by President johnson and other high civil and military officials of the country. The streets were alive with detachments of soldiers marching toward Capitol Hill, for it was there the parade was to start. This host of veterans poured clown Pennsylvania avenue, making a magnificent pageant, which was witnessed and applauded by thousands of spectators. The word peace and victory was on every tongue. The happy coun- Lenances of the troops showed signs of triumph, The time to which the people had long looked forward to, had at last come. The integrity of the Union was assured, and negro slavery, the real cause of the war, was forever destroyed. Thus are we, the class of '09, here tonight to be received by our Faculty, our liloard of Education and our acquaintances. Like the soldiers of the Civil War, we have been engaged in a four years' struggle. Graduation day is a day which we have looked forward to as the goal of our hopes and ambitions. In looking back over our course we see that the path has often led us through pleasant places, often over rough and unexperienced ways. We may have had our trying times, but our success is due in part to the helpful guidance of our tCZlCi1C1'S and to some of our classmates. Angela Shumacher and Alice Shea, were always ready to cheer us with their songs: and Gycla Glson, encouraged us by her cheerful manner. Also the aim for which we have striven has spurred us on and made our tasks seem lighter. A greater number enlisted in our army four years ago, but it has been greatly reduced. Some have deserted on account of the difficult tasks put before themg some have been lured away. to other pleasures. The most important conflict of the first year Algebra, a few members ol' our class found this so arduous, that they left our ranks. The third year was marked by the battle of Geometry, here our greatest number fell. lt was at this battle that Lida Larson and l-lilmar Gellein won their fame, because of their faithful devotion to duty and their great achievements. The fourth year General Sterne divided the class into two divisions, and sent one to take up the Biology strife. the other to attack Physics. The two return- ed with great triumph. It was in this year, that Booth Goodman made our army forever famous by his great feais in oratory. We also learned that there is not a difficulty, but can transligure itself into a triumph and with this tendency to persist in spite of hindrances and discouragements, we have spreads itself, so shall we grow and found the way to victory. Our work at times, but now when we are about we feel that it has not been in vain. in the past may have been difficult to receive the reward of our labors, Classmates, we are standing on the threshold of an immeasurable fu- ture, prepared to leave our Alma Mater, but before we go out into the world, before we leave these halls of ivy will today start out on its career, higher year by year. It shall spread of our school. The deeper its rooting learning, we plant a slip of ivy. The growing a little day by day, climbing itself and cling tightly to the walls the more obstinate it will continue. In spite of the weeds and thistles, which come in its path, it shall not cease to grow. The ivy will stand in Its hale and hearty green is a sign of future. Like the ivy, we will today start both pleasant and cloudy weather. growth and full of promise for the out on our career, as it grows and our influence be felt. Always climb- ing higher, ever struggling forward, perfecting ourselves as the years go by. We part, but in years to come, our thoughts shall ever cling to our Alma Mater. We go out into the strife well equipped. May that which we have gained in the past, be an impulse to something higher. Let not the thistle that grows in our paths injure us, or cause us to hesitate. Life is not an idle game, but a battle and a march. The sunshines and the earth calls, we must go out into the world to make some nook of Godis creation more fruitful, more worthy of Him, a little wiser and a little better. Wl1ole ages have Hecl, and their works decayed, And nations have scattered beeng But the stout old ivy shall never fade From its hale and hearty green. The brave old plant in its lonely days Shall fatten upon the past, For the stateliest building man can raise Is the ivy's food at last. MINNIE HEGDAHL.

We the class of 1909, strong minded and of happy memory, do hereby make and declare this to be our last will and testament, in manner follow- ing: First--To our immediate successors, the members of the class IQIO, we bequeath our valuable and time tried llutler. In this humble capacity he served us each in turn, to many a well seasoned joke and caper. We are confident that you too will relish flfecldyisnis. Second-To the juniors likewise, we donate our four lady watches. It must be understood, however, that the above mentioned articles, begging their pardon for the appelation, are not like ordinary time pieces, guaran- teed to keep good time. Their special recommendation is, that they will keep the owners from having too good a time. Third-To the many individuals of the junior class who have rising ambitions, and limited capacities, we oH'er the services of Julius Lereggen and 'Hub Devine. After one treatment with them we can assure the most backward, of daily attacks of growing pains. Fourth-For any members of the high school, who are suffering from ennui, we prescribe what is left of Clifford Jaedecke's generous smile. If one dose of this does not produce desired results, we suggest that it be fol- lowed by Tom Bargh's melodious laugh. Directions, shake well after using rather than before. Fifth-To the junior girls, we leave the masculine portion of the faculty, who have not already succumbed to the attractions of the Seniors. Sixth-VVe give into the keeping of Donald lrlayden, the Senior's pro- tege, Thomas john Collins, and request that he carefully enforce these three restrictions: Let no drug be given him which will hinder his growth. Let him not wander from the straight and narrow path. Let his small person be elevated to the plane of his classmates. If necessary, provide a high chair. Seventh-To the teachers, the girls of the Senior class, with becoming generosity, bequeath their share ofthe Rest Room. As for other share holders in this precious sanctum, we wish to assure them, by way of con- sf. lation, that if ever they come into their own, they will find the room in good condition, and thoroughly rested. Eight-By special permission of Lola Nesbitt, we give unto the junior girls, the one coat hanger, in the wardrobe, to be used by each in turn. Ninth-NVe leave to the Teddy Bear Club for their personal adornment, one hundred twenty-four cents. NVe suggest that this amount be expended in hair ribbons, to be distributed among the members, share and share alike. Tenth-VVe bequeath unto the whole high school our appreciation of a good time, also our ability to keep quiet when absolutely necessary. Our foresight in the latter case, we know will be very much appreciated by Mr. Phelps. Eleventh-Last but not least, we also commend to the care of those who follow us, our highly respected faculty. ln speaking of them, let me mention one or two of their good points. Mr. Rietz, for instance, we have found most elevating when his subject was high altitudesg and Mr. Eckel- berry was surely one to whom we could always look up. We have never really known our opinion of Mr. Scribner, but this year, after careful and deliberate consideration of the matter, we have come to the decision, that he is the best superintendent in Ishpeming. ln conclusion, we hope that this will be considered a just distribution of our valuable possessions and perogatives. If we have unwittingly slight- cd anyone or too generously l'6l'IlCl1llJC1'CCl others, we ask as a parting souv- enir, their kind and gracious forgiveness. Witliessecl by MR. JEFFERIES. MR.

Fondly we bid to thee adieu, Our hearts shall be fore'er with you, Will be with you. CLASS POEM. Classmates, we've met but to part, gathered a last time together, Gathered to say, Farewell, in sadness and longing and waiting- Vkfaiting for what is to come, for the future, uncertain before us, And it shall be what we wish, what we by our striving shall make it. just as the leaves of the trees, tossed on the breeze of the autumn, Tossed and scattered afar and lost in the hollows and hedges Though they lie for a time forgotten, neglected, and seem to be useless, Still in the years they grow and become mighty trees of the forest. And when we have passed through the portals, with the star of ambition before us, When we have left the old school and the comrades we've lived with and honored, Wfhen we have scattered afar and have taken up each his own burden, May we win Fame and Renown in the paths we have chosen to follow. Let us remember that, this is the first branch sent forth from a young tree, That by whatever we do we determine the growth and the progress, Not of ourselves alone, but the school and all it shall stand for, And as the branch of the tree shows the strength of the trunk that sup- ports it, May we by achievement and honor bring renown to our dear Alma Mater.

In accordance with the plan of great Jove, the sayings witty, wise, and superwise, were consigned to the tablets. It was decreed that the collection of aphorisms thus formed should be preserved and transmitted to mortals, tlxat the votaries of jupiter through them may inspire the world. The conclave voted sesterces for the encouragement of amateur genius manifested by some mortals residing on far-away Ishpeming heights and frcquenting the Temple of learning thereon found. An effort was made to bring before the assembly measures by which the finances of this same class, the special care of the gods, might be bettered, but lo! Jupiter was unfavorable, the wrath of the gods was evi- dent for on counting up their money after the revel and dance, it was found that their entire gain amounted to only one hundred, four and twenty sesterces. Business was continued by the reading of a petition to be forwarded to the Council of Education of the Temple, wherein it was sought that all members of this class whose shoes squeaketh be provided with rubber soles. At this time, the great king promised that when the. seven chosen gods should be summoned again in council on the fifth day of the Ides of June any one request that they should be agreed upon, he would grant. Thus closed the conclave, but as I lay my stylus aside, O, all-dispos- ing Jove, I would remind you of our fcalty and ask again the fulfillment of your promise. jup.-That serious, dignified style pleaseth me. Vulcan, what sayeth thou? Shall these records be preserved in the archives of our council? Vulcan-Yea, yea, yea. Jove-It shall be, dear daughter, even as you have begged. But first Hebe, bring the nectar. CHcbe brings the ,nectar.j . Jup.-But the hours on velvet feet are speeding. Now to the business in hand. Venus, you shall be spokesman: name the gift, most of all, the Gods this night covet. Venus-Thou rememberest, Jupiter, that twenty circles of years agone -as mortals count time,-a worthy gens and fair, the class of naughty- nine Cso called by menj-some three-score strong left forever the Temple of Learning standing in the center of the haunts of men. The priest ofthe Temple-a just and devout man at that time, gave these into our protec- tion. We have watched carefully over our foster-children. Many have been this vicissitudes on land and sea, and many have been their truimphs. And now the time has come when we wish to lay their cause before you and sec to what end all these things are and whither they are tending. Thou hast promised. Fulfill this promise, O King divine, I pray thee. All-Grant, grant, grant. jupiter-VVhere stands this Temple? Venus-In Ishpeming's walled town. Jupiter-A favored city and well beloved by me. So be it. Proceed. Speak each in turn, for his particular charges, and briefly. Minerva--These are they to whom I have sworn protection. I will re- late their careers thus far and ask your counsel for the future. A maid there was of the race of Altschwager, a gay and pleasure- seeking maid, Irma. Her chief aim being amusement, none of her compan- ions, nay not even she herself thought that she would be sent as mission- ary to the foreigners. But so it is, and faithfully she has labored and is still laboring among the Barbarians. Another maid there is who also hath devoted her life to good works. Mamie, of the House of Brown. Those, who having fought faithfully have fallen in battle are for a care to her. By whatever standard they may have fallen, there she finds her way, her insignia' being a red cross, Neither the din of raging battle nor the hardships of war does she fear, and at her side, though without insignia stands another of the same house, Albert-us, a disciple of Esculapious, himself a famous Doctor and skillful. Lo, a ,third maiden also lives a life of renunciation, Alice, the Shea-ite hath withdrawn from the stage and the sinful world and hath chosen an exalted work-even that of a Sister of Mercy. After passing out through the portals of the Temple, Ida, she of the tribe of Eggan, did work with unsurpassed energy in her native city to procure what mortals' term woman suffrage. Her loud and powerful peer- less efforts however were in vain, and she at last was forced to yield. It was now the Minnie, the Hegdahl maid, came for an aid. Undaunted by scorn of friends these two courageous young women headed a small rank and set out to found a new city where they could have a govermnent, even as they desired. The site chosen was on the banks of the beautiful River Carp. Ere setting forth upon this expedition they met in my temple and at the shrine sought my protection and asked that their enemies might be pun- ished. I now appeal to thee, great Jupiter. But first let me prove to thee that another member of this renowned class is for a benefit to the human race. In his earliest years to Thomas, of the surname Bargh, son of Thomas also Bargh, smoking was for a contempt. As years increased in number to him, his hatred for this vice wazed and grew and today Thomas-ius is at the head of the great Anti-Cigarette- League, verily a great reformer. Thus, O father, endeth my petition. -Iup.-Apollo, withdraw to thy shrine, and bring up the response and while we wait may we not listen to Diana's sweet strains. Strike the strings, daughter. CDiana playsj Apollo- Black is the blood of victim, The tripod is unfavorable, Apollo is unfavorableg Yet good is in store for these mortals. Make peace with the oracle. I-Iearken to the voice of the oracle. All is well and all in all. Jup.-Venus, sprung from the sea-foam thou are bright as the stars in the night time and as fair as the flowers of the spring. Before thou speak- est, it is granted. Venus-Listen to my supplication. Here on earth are those who are my special care. ' One day, O father, I did stroll through sylvan glades and as I wander- ed I did chance upon a youth, 'Clifford by name. So disconsolate looked he that I inquired the cause of his anxiety. His answer revealed the fact that so he was left with no further desire request, I transformed him into an love, the Immortelle. Prithee, Zeus ruthless Wanderers for I too love this all his love affairs had gone wrong and for earth's pleasure. At his earnest immortal flower, the symbol of eternal omnipotent, protect the blossoms from tiower. Emily of the House of Wood, a world famous horticulturist, Catherine Devan-ida, instructor in Manners and VVords in a famous school of the Emerald Isle, and also I-Iilmer Gellein-idus, professor of VVisdom at the fam- ous university in Trondhjem, Norway, all these I would intrust to thy ten- der care. And now, I would recall to thy remembrance famous mortals with cog- nomen johnson, Ben, a master-mind, and Samuel, well-known to fame, but there are greater ones still, Ingeborg the great, Ethel, the well-known, also authors whose books do stand in the Alexandrian Library. Nolan with the pre-cognomen Sadie, too hath rendered distinguished services to the human race as a designer in the art of hair-dressing, as has also Lida Larson-ida, a specialist in the concoction of rare cosmetics, the most valued being Perennially Pink wise LaRue, a Verran-ite, who hath. ferent line, namely, the inventing of a by mortals, Stenography, which is so Cheeks for Pale People. And like- gained distinction in an entirely dif- new method of Gieroglyphics called valuable that I almost could wish that it might be introduced in Mount Olympus itself. All of these I commend to thee. jupiter-From my own all-knowledge and because of my love for thee, fairest of daughters, I swear to protect and cherish these thy chosen charges. And now Diana, Moon Goddess, humtress, thou who art both faithful and fair, present thy petition. Diana--O jupiter, first of all gods, Supreme, all powerful, first let me recall to thy mind these to whom I have sworn protection and relate in what walks of life their destiny thus far led them. Thou rememberest Har- vey Tonne's-son how his mighty struggles to attain with little study brought about a miracle and lo his hair turned from dark to white! Now he tilleth the soil and soweth the seed and reapeth the harvest, and thresheth the grain, and in quiet and peace passeth his days. Williain, the Keesite, always fond of sweet things, hath finally found what seemeth to be his calling viz., that of chef to the Emperor of Japan. Lola, with eognomen Nesbitt, bright-haired and keen of wit, dwelleth in a far away, storied city where she winneth Laurels as an instructor in the art of warfare for women, and from this same university did graduate the maiden of Barnaby, Lorraine, who having been sent by the King to Zulu-land to instill principles of war in the native women, met, loved, and wedded a Zulu Prince. I Isabella Pryor-ite by chance concocted a magical salve which when applied to tired or aching feet giveth instant relief. It consisteth of the milky juice of bitter herbs. cut by the light of the new moon and distilled at midnight. Ethel, daughter of the House of Cfollick, did remain at home and tend her labors, the web and the distaff, and also commanded her maids, and so hath been satisfied to wait her destiny there, but now O Jupiter she wearies of the routine and wishes to try a broader field. Sweet is her voice and skillful her playing. She hath consulted the augeries which seem to indi- cate that here is her vocation. May it not be that she, with Sophie Olson as accompanist, may astonish the world. Will, the elder of the Cooley-idi, after two or three extremely danger- ous expeditions hath become the world's most renowned tamer of the most atrociously wild beasts. Shall this glory continue his? Lena, Ol's-son, in this case a daughter and more than that, the seventh daughter should win renown as healer of ills and mender of broken bones. Verily destiny must be fulfilled. There is one other, Father all-powerful, for whom I beg favor and my petition is done. Marjery, daughter of the House of Barney, having turned her attention to painting hath been the envied of all artists. She, the sub- ject being inspired by memories of her senior year, hath just completed and hung in the Paris Salon, a wonderful and life like picture, by name The Dissection of the Innocent Froggiesf' These are my particular charges, and this my one prayer. Iup.--My dear child, be calm. I will be kind to thee, it shall be as thou wilts and there shall be no delay. White hair shall turn black, good cooking shall grow better-instruction shall bring greater renown-Wild beasts shall grow tamer-healers shall bring healing-Zulu princesses shall be happy-magical salve shall cure-musical strains bring distinction- from great lifelikeness pictured, frogs shall almost croak. Iup.-I will' deign to add to the record of this wonderful class. Hehe, bring the responses from my oracle. CI-Iebe brings the responses written on oak leaves.j These nine, all connected in one enterprise, shall gain unusual distinction. Janie of the House of Drew, now on the stage starring in Mr. I-Iamlet of Broadway Cas mortals strangely term thingsj shall become marvel- lously renowned. Doubtless some of her fame shall be clue to her excellent musical director, Selma, the Hoyseth-ida. Next season she shall start the season with a new play by Emily, of the I-louse of Cox, Julius Sneezerf' This play shall be staged under the personal direction of Ellen, the Milli- mach. The leading role, Julius Sneezer, the Head Sneezer shall be hand- led by John, the Murphy-dus. Loretta, the Power-te shall predict great success for this play through her writing in the Ladies' Home Journal. The music in the play shall be very beautiful and! shall gain much honor for the composer Jennie, of the tribe of Sodergren. George Tucker-idus shall soon resign his place as manager of the company and shall return to his original occupation of research along the line of Permutations and Combinations. But now Apollo may we not listen to music from your sweet-toned in- strument? Attune your lyre. CApollo plays.j Juno-O jupiter who ruleth all, I, thy royal spouse, would know the truth. Unto my altar came a member of this class of the city of reddish hue and spake thus unto me. O, Queen, I am a sufferer and thy sup- pliant. I beg thee hear and help. I, Bertha, with the cognomen Krog- dahl, as the leader of an Antisaloon League, am sorely tried. With the famous Emily Smith-ida, I have donemost valarous deeds and have dealt death and destruction to the liquor dealer.

To me it seemeth, of ye gods, that Dorothy in whose heart dwelleth much love for the human race hath chosen a most goodly part, for this fair damsel hath renounced the world's pleasures and is devoting her life to the advancement of the Society for the Prevention of Whisperixig in Study Halls. I am sure, U lfathcr jupiter, that thou wilt say that the happy lot into which Ethel of the tribe of Wariiberg, hath come is none other than this fair damsel deserves. On the banks of the beautiful, sparkling Rhine stands the most magnificent of castles over which our friend presideth. Her chosen companion is the wonderful, emotional actress now the idol of the world, Madamoiselle Sa'de Immaculate MCI-Iale. Will this happy life continue. Angela, with cognomen Schumacher, the fair haired maid pursueth the study of art in the beautiful land of Bohemia. Both, the dark-eyed Rose and the fair Lillian, she who so seldom moveth her lips in whispers, together go forth over the fruitful earth as owners of the great Barnum and Baily Combination, -thus the human race speak of it. I, of royal spouse, disguised in the form of a mortal-in appearance mortal save the gait of a queen which could not be hidden-was present at one of the performances. I discovered that Heman, of the race of Allen, always a favorite of fortune, was a chief actor, even what mortals seemed to call a clown. Strange were the antics he performed and many capers and greatly he did please the audience-such fools these mortals be-also I saw William Trebilcock-idus, manager of the same great enterprise. It was revealed to me that though the business in hand had brought him great wealth he wisheth to change his vocation, for this reason: namely, be- cause he is not able to have his hair cut as regularly as he did when in the School of Learning. He besought my aid and I lay his cause before thee. Jup.- Queen of Heaven, fairest and most divine, take thy seat beside me. Let mine oracle be consulted.

This was our first important service to our CLASS HISTORY. GEORGE iT'UlCKlElR. To me has fallen the greatest of honors and assuredly the most plea- sant of duties, that of chronicling the career of the class of 1909. Let me first of all announce my unfitness for the task, and venture the statement in all humility that the class of naughty nine ought to have had as its his- torian no ordinary mortal. VVere it customary, I wohld suggest that it be written by our learned high school faculty, a body best acquainted with the character and ability which has made us of such consequence. It was indeed a great event in high school history when our class en- tered her portals as freshman. Ushered in to the usual laughterkand gibes of the upper classmen, we, even then confident of our great superiorty, felt that they did not know they were entertaining angels unawares. Our first glimpse of high school lile came as a result of a hazing from the football team. Placards in abundance were placed upon the bulletin board but we covered them up with hot replies. It was a memorable struggle, the details of which would be too lengthy to enter into here. Suf- fice it to say that the contest resulted on our side in the loss to Will Cooley of a few cherished locks of gold. As for the football team, the energy they were forced to expend upon us afforded them the required vigor which later proved its value, when they carried home championship honors from Alma Mater. Meanwhile we had been formally There were times, of course, when we our new acquaintances, whereupon we still to meet semester exams. This they had once paid us a call we were I cannot leave the freshmen year introduced to Latin and Algebra. were inclined to turn our backs upon were gently reminded that we had was not at first effective but when much wiser if not sadder freshmen. without recalling one more event of special significance as illustrative of the character of naughty nine. A class meeting was called for the election of officers. It became evident at once that we had one common trait, unbounded ambition. Everything was in confusion and excitementg we all Wanted to talk, vote, and be elected at tl1e same time. An appeal 'to higher authority re- sulted in the untimely end of our meeting, and for that year our excessive devotion to the cause of democratic institutions was held in abeyance. Thus it was that the most important duty of our sophomore year was to elect officers. Our first able to contain ourselves close with John Murphy unanimously lowed the world to move on as before. experience had proven valuable to us and we were until the meeting was brought to a successful chosen president. After this we al- Great oaks from little acorns grow and in like manner the name and fa me of our most illustrious members have evolved, for it is in this class that such actors as Booth Goodman and his followers originated. The first theatre opened by these scions of greatness was a rude and lowly barn with an entrance from an alley. Here the troupe played to a select if scanty audience. An amusing story might be told in connection with the aforesaid Booth and his early career as an actor. One day a lady, turning a corner on High street, was much startled by a loud. XNoof! XN7oof! She soon discovered Booth as the source of this unusual noise, but he, oblivious still to everything but the one great task in hand, was rapidly walking on. She called to him, VVhat is the matter, Booth? VVhom are you trying to scare? He sheepishly replied, I am not trying to scare anyone. I am practicing my part for Uncle Tom's Cabin. I am the blood hound. En- couraged by the appreciation with which their efforts met, they formed the Silver Stock Company and played thereafter to packed houses in the Ish- peming theatre. The Pet of the Mountains, produced in this their second year, certainly speaks well for the future career of these members of our class. VVC are informed by the manager, Mr. Ted Butler, that no less than eighty seven cartridges were used in disposing of the villains in the first act of this play. I have dwelt at some length on the history of the first two years, for later events show that they were the junior year an opera was given by the the talents of our prima donnas, Alice this exception the Junior year may be years of history. We worked hard, most prolific in originality. In the high school which brought to light Shea and Angela Schumacher. VVith classified as belonging to the lean urged thereto by the faculty and our own sensitive consciences cheerfully anticipating much easier days when we should have reached the dignity of seniors. By the time we had gain- ed this alluring altitude we had grown so large .both bodily and mentally that a new school house had to be built for us. The Philosopher says, Happy the people that have no annals and in- deed this truism distinguished the final year of our history. At our first class meeting Wfalter Sterne was chosen president but verytlittle change was made otherwise in the list of officers. The usual discussion of class pins and commencement followed, but all this was soon settled by our worthy superintendent. We leave our accustomed haunts proud of the fact that of all classes entering the School ours bears the largest percentage of students who had the will to persevere to the end. Of those who have dropped by the wayside, two, David Gordon and Eric Johnson have passed to the bet- ter life beyond. I have modestly refrained from mentioning the social do- ings of our class and our football conquests. It is my hope, however, that what I have seen fit to record will serve as a reminder of the loyalty and good fellowship which existed among us, and in future years will bring a smile and' a sigh for the memory of naughty nine. STATISTICS. What a change four years has wrought upon the class individually and collectively. As Freshmen and Sophomores we had the reputation of be- ing wild and untamed, but Sophomores have to grow up and so did we. lt became our duty to carry the dignity of the Junior. VVe feel that during our'Senior year we have been patient and long suffering. We have looked in vain for our reward in the way of privileges to Seniors, but so few have they been that they were not worth struggling for. Not that we expect rewards for all our good acts, but we sometimes feel that the faculty did not really appreciate what a serious, orderly, and studious class we have been. . However strange it may seem to the undergraduate mind, we do not yet think that we know everything to be learned in this world. We are modest if we do not appear to be so, NVc wear our superior air only as a bluff for under class men. Now we are about to leave the high school, and we will show you what we are worth. But I must not deal in generalities but give you some idea of who we are and what we are. I suppose that you have noticed as we have sat here under your critical eyes to-night, that we may lay claim to being the most wonderful and largest class that has yet graduated from the Ishpeming High School. VVe number sixty-four, forty-three girls and twenty-one boys. ' When we entered as Freshmen we numbered one hundred twenty-six. -Xs Sophomores we started out with the number one hundred ten. XVhen we were Juniors, by addition, and substraction and by every other means, our number was reduced to eighty-five. June examinations cut our mnnber down to seventy-eight, and we finish, the lucky sixty-four. We are of various nationalities. Out of sixty-four members of our class, .seventeen of us are English, sixteen Americans, ten Norwegians, seven Swedes, ten Irish, two Finnish, one Dutch, and one Dane. We number altogether 1,138 years. Our average being 18. The average weight ofthe girls is II8 lbs., and the boys I52 lbs. Our total weight is 132,r28 oz. The fat and thin of it are seen in Herbert De- vine, who is 220 lbs., and Jane Brewer, who is 90 lbs. The average size shoes worn by the girls is 3 I-2, and the boys 7 I-2. The largest shoe in the class is worn by Julius Lereggen, the size being ro I-2, so you see Julius has a very good under-standing. The smallest shoe is, worn by a boy, Charles Carlyon. He wears a girls size 3. The average height of the girls is 5 ft. 4 inches, and the boys 5 ft. 9 inches. The long and short of it is seen in Julius Lereggen, who is 6 ft. 2 inches, and Ethel Collick, who is 5 ft. Our total height is 4,295 inches, or 1-I3 of a mile. The majority of the class are firm believers in outdoor sports. These recreations are of varied natureg some devote themselves to leisurely walks to and from the Y. M. C. A. building and the city library 1 others to var- ious contests, vocal as well as gymnastic, before their afternoon recita- tions: and still others are reported to have spent whole evenings standing on the corner of Second and Division streets, breathing the pure night air, gazing up at the stars. or waiting for the members of the literary society. Opinions dilter as to their real purpose. History repeats itself, and the coming events may sometimes be fore- told from the pastg if this be trueg we feel fully justified in prophesying that the world will be bigger and brainier than ever it was before. now the class of naughty-nine has departed from the sheltering walls of the I.

It in token of their battle of the war Likewise do which ended in their in front of the Bunker Hill Monu- was erected by the American people gratitude to the brave soldiers who fought in that first freedom. the tombs of such great military heroes as Grant and Napoleon, symbolize a nation's thankful appreciation of these men's achievements for their country. In Xkfestminister Abbey, with its many memorials, we are reminded of what the world owes to the men who have enriched it by valuable contributions to literature, painting, sculpture, music, and all the aesthetic arts. So in general do we find that every me- nlorial, pretentions or simple is erected in acknowledgment of benefits received. Thus for many years past it has graduating from the Ishpeming High the school, until finally our assembly and statues. Wliat is the purpose of the members of each class have appreciated their education, and wish to show their gratitude by having a share in adding towards the beauty of the school, some of the world's best art. The memorial which we are about to present is a part of the frieze found around the inner porch of the Parthenon at Athens. This work of Greek classic art, representing the triumphal 'procession in Athens, is a fitting decoration for our assembly hall. The classes of '07 and '08 have each contributed a part of this frieze and it is now our opportunity and pleasure to add to it. To our school we leave .this token of our gratitude been the custom for every class on School, to give an art memorial to room is adorned with these pictures these memorials? They show that and appreciation. JANIE DRENV. VALEDICTORY. Commencement Day brings to us a thrill of delight. Something ac- complished, a reward gained, but we do not wish you to think that that is all' it means to us. W'e realize, perhaps dimly that this is only a new bc- ginning for which our four years have prepared us. New occasions teach new duties, the opportunity always confronts us and it behooves us at this time to take mental note of our equipment. Four years of work must have had a result. Wfhat has our High School life developed within us? VVhat trait of character, what mental and moral resources have we that will help us to meet these new duties? Everything in the future seems bright and beautiful: life is all dreams and aspirations. However we will soon find that we will have to stand the moral test. NN'e will be compelled to decide for ourselves. Shall we depend upon others or shall we follow the course of self-reliance which leads to success? Truth, honesty and self-reliance are thethings that count. Self-reliance with courage and truth, learning by experience, not blindly advancingi into the future, but having but once learned uses the ability gained to press on, listening to and learning from everything. Thus we will reach the goal and having reached it, we are not only richer in ex- perience, in moral and mental qualities but also capable of doing all that our position demands . Self-reliance has made our great country what it is. It must be the common divisor of the American character or how else could such different characteristics have been Puritan, Cavalier, Quaker from them consists not in before us as beacon lights did? If we are, we may reconciled and Soldier name or in and are we be assured s those of the founders of the nation. all contribute and our inheritance lands but in character. They stand ready to follow them, to do as they that although success may seem far off, after steady application, it will come. VVe are a product of an institution. Building better than they knew, the Fathers of the Republic felt that in general education alone-the firmness of their structure. Character was their star of hope and the trait that stands foremost in its development is self-reliance. In the Puritan we find this characteristic brought out to great advan- tage. Leaving England for conscience, sailing for months on a rough sea, enduring bitter hardships they finally landed on the dreary American shore. What hardships did they not endure on account of the harsh cli- mate of the north and the character of the country as a whole? Nor were these the only difficulties encountered. The Indians beset them and many srccumbed to famine and the tomahawk of the savage: but for all this they kept on and finally fired the shot for liberty, that was heard around the world. Seeking adventure, another class came to homes in the beautiful south. They brought with them the qualities of patriot and soldier and transferred them to their new home. The warm skies of Virginia bred men, far- sightecl, large-hearted and generous. When a leader in both peace and war was wanted the choice of the country fell upon VVashington. The same Vir- ginian soil bred the greatest Democrat of the country, Thos. Jefferson, whose self-reliance and far-sightedness took advantage of conditions and purchased for us the vast Louisiana Territory. These are the beginnings of the countryg but what of the great west. The pioneer, another great character in the building of this nation stands before us as a model of self-reliance. In viewing the lands beyond the mountains we find that this vast area not only attracted the settler but furnished opportunity for all men to hew out their own careers. Grap- pling with new problems under these conditions the society that spread in- to the region developed inventiveness and resourcefulness. Daniel Boone, pioneer, patriot and soldier, blazed the trail into the west for many followers. Beset by Indians and hardships, with a little band he opened the way, each day requiring greater endeavor and yet still pushing forward. Self-reliant, fearless and possessed of great harclihood, he press- ed into the wilderness. As a result the fair hills and woods of Kentucky and the prairies of Missouri became stars in the bright galaxy of the Union and Thos. Jefferson was justified his vision. Other pioneers have also acquired fame in the development. The Northwest territory was held for the Union by such as Geo. Rogers Clark and Gen. St. Clair, while such names as Fremont, Pike, Kit Carson, David Crokett, John Brown, Lewis and Clarke, furnish themes for romance and history. But individuals are only representative of a class. 1 Stretching before me l. see the Santa Fe trail marked with bleaching bones and here and there a mound that marks that place where some wanderer was forced to give up his search for gold. I see the outposts of civilization deserted and the prospector with kit and blanket developing the resources of the land. Never thinking of the hardships he endures, he continues his hard work, longing for the time to come when he can return to civilization and bring with him the rewards of hard labor in the fieldsof ice. Hardships to be endured and hopes deferred are not always necessary to the development of the self-reliant character. Witiiess the life of Pres. Roosevelt. Born of wealthy parents he had everything he could desire. His social standing was thrust upon him, not worked for. But still he did not remain in leisure and luxury. It is unnecessary for me to repeat the incidents concerning Roosevelt as a Rough Rider, his work in the Spanish VVar and finally as chief executive of the U. S. His experiences caused him to be the great man we know today. I-Ie did not go blindly ahead but carefully worked his way up and when his goal was reached he was well able to judge for himself what was to be done in all eases. All this points to the one conclusion. Self-reliance depends wholly upon the character and not upon circumstances. In reviewing these types we find that we have from the ljuritan, Cava- lier, Pioneer and Prospector an inheritance of character. Character is the moral mark by which one person is distinguished from another and the special mark in those mentioned is their self-reliance. This being such an important trait, the Public School endeavors to fos- ter it. The school in teaching and then demanding that we do our own work, causes the development of the student. He realizes all the benefits derived fiom this and-appreciates the work done by the school. W'e as a class, realize how much has been done for us: that the school has tried to make self-reliant men and women of us. Now it is our duty to show at school that we are capable of doing what is expected of us. Wfe, the class of 1909, knowing that the benehts we' have received are largely due to the Board of Education, wish to thank you for everything you have done for us in the past and we will attempt to show this appre- ciation in our future work. To you, Supt. Scribner, we wish to express our thanks. VVhat do we not owe to your splendid management of our Public School? You have always had our interests at heart and we thank you for your friendship and guidance. Altho' only a few short months ago, we were strangers to you, Mr. Phelps, yet in that time, the most important year of our school life we have learned to appreciate your justice and wisdom. NVe feel that in you wc have a friend who will watch our onward march with interest and kindness. 7 And to you our teachers, the class of 1909, extends its thanks. Hou faithfully you have led us through difficult ways, encouraging, aiding al'- ways. Our happiness in High School has in the greater part been due to your assistance. We feel very grateful to you, tonight, and we know that this gratitude will increase as the years go by. Our expressions of gratitude would be incomplete this evening if we did not acknowledge what we owe to one, who tho' absent is in all our thoughts tonight-Miss McKitrick. We parted with reluctance after three years of championship. XVe wish that she were here to feel our gratitude and enjoy with us our success. ' And now classmates, we have been a happy class. We have had our struggles which at the time seemed very great but in years to come will be but trivial incidents of our High School career. Each one has been work- ing forward, taking these hard parts of school life as a part of the battle, Every member of the class has been- One who never turned his back but marched breast forward. Never doubted clouds would break. And so greet the unseen with a cheer. The time for parting has come. Our place will soon be taken by others and the High School is ours no longer, except in allegiance. VVe will be strangers in the building and this fact will over-Whelm us if we ever enter its halls again. May we, the class of 1909, endeavor to do that which will honor our home, our teachers and our school. In the name of the class, I bid you all farewell.
