Class Prophecy DIALOGUE: SETTING: Room of an apartment in Merrelton TIME: 19S6. CHARACTERS: Johnny parish and Marie Thomas—two old maids living together and soured on the world because of disappointment in love due to Buster and Jim: Marie: You'd never guess whom I saw in Jacksonville yesterday afternoon. Bertha McDonald. When she heard an additional two-year course had been added to the school, she couldn't resist coming back, although she had to give up Frank Osborne to do it. I suppose, though, she had just become attached to the place—having spent an indefinite number of years there in her youth. Johnny: And while you were in Jacksonville yesterday I heard a bit of news. The United Debaters Association of America, which is touring the country debating on any subject the public requests, reaches here tomorrow night. The speakers are: J. O. McCracken. Fred Burnham. T. C. Burn . U. S. Abrams and Hahsel Beasley. I understand that the Merrelton Chamber of Commerce has asked that the subject be: Resolved: It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all Marie: Bertha told me yesterday that as she came through Oxford Margaret Staples mow Mrs. Ralph Flood) got on the train with her daughter whose name is Little Del. Mies Del is residing in Margaret's happy home. Johnny: Did you know that Ollte Sewell was a composer of standard tests? You remember how she loved them at S. N. S.? Mrs. Hall (formerly Emma Will Braswell) said that the other day her little Emma Will came home from school blubbering her life away because she failed a test Miss Ollie Sewell wrote. Marie: 1 think we ought to go to Anniston next week, Johnny: What for? Marie: Didn't you know the Noble is going to have a special feature? Edna McLemore is going to impersonate twenty of the most famous statue . Johnny: Marie, did you see that article in the Birmingham News the oilier night about Ernest Coley's buying out Milt Tolbert’s Tent Show? Marie: No! Johnny: Well, he has. and Sue DeJernctte. Allison Blair, and Mrs. Alma Kirzirv are his leading ladies. They are planning a tour of China, so Annie Laurie Blair, who is doing missionary work there assisted by Bernice Rogers, may enjoy a bit of‘America again. Marie: Pattie Mae Parker has never lost the interest in books that she cultivated as assistant librarian at S. N. S. I understand she's going from house to house and as time goes on from town to town urging people tu buy books, especially books on how to secure debating material. Pag, Johnny: Have you ever spent any time in that Attalla Depot? I had to wait there several hours last (all on my tvay out west and I was on the verge ot starvation. I looked around and saw a sign that read: Food all day and all night —Proprietor: Miss Juliette freeze. Marie: ! had a letter from Blanche Box this morning- She’s in New York singing tor the slum churches. Johnny: Speaking of our class: Louis Kirkland has really been the brains ot the class after all. Would you ever have thought that he would be the one really to prove that Mars is inhabited? Marie: At the sewing club while you were out West. I kept hearing everybody rave about the Charming Chateau, L'pon investigation I found that Anna Lee Moore was mistress ot this finishing school on the outskirts of Paris. Katie Todd is professor of the Gentle Art of Teaching: .Mae Dell Sentell lectures on the Correct in Dress; Mattie Moon is dancing instructor; Bernice Harris is the Madame Etiquette; Pearle Daniel is authority on the latest mode ot dressing the hair; Mary Tally is matron; and Mrs. Rufus Askew lonce Mary Woodlltt) is the adored voice teacher. Johnny: t went to the Fair in Anniston the other day and who should be selling silk hoBe but Clarence Vines? Marie: (reading from paper) Listen to this: Advice to Girl . Aline Bohler: Dear Miss Bohler: Should a girl let a boy kiss her good-night if it’ the first date she's had with him? Yes, if he insists. Johnny: Can you feature Ramona Wright ae Miss Weir's assistant and supervising of pre-primer children ? Yes. that's exactly what they're doing in Andalusia. Marie: (reading) Listen, Johnny' Notice: Annie Mae Willard has been appointed road tax collector for the fifth district and is authorized to receive and receipt for road taxes Moree McClellan. Clerk, County Commissioners. Johnny: How those days at the S. X. S. affect some of us! You remember the Ccon wedding ? Woody King and Callie Mills rehearsed that so often they became really fond of each other and Naomi Ruth Littlejohn. Art Assistant at Jacksonville now. told me they were married laat Sunday. Marie: Johnny, we must go to Anniston and see the remodeling. 1 understand that through the ettorts of Sleepy Crowley, whose energy was so evident at the S. N. S, the old Noble Institute has been remodeled and made into a nursery for children whose mothers work in town. Bess Hinds assists Sleepy in entertaining the variety of inmates. This was made possible by the financial support of L. G. McPherson. Maxwell Johnson, and Bill Carnes, and. by the way. they say Bill Carnes is making that little Made Nelson a mighty good husband. Johnny: You mentioned the financial success of those members of our class reminds me that Gertie Perry inherited a small fortune not long Pugs rifSKJg-Wgkf ago. so Judge Tale was telling me. Imt tor pastime she's going from town to town and making Morgans of all the high School seniors who might go to Jacksonville. Marie: Esther Meade came down yesterday afternoon while you were at the club. She's very much upset since she married Buck Glazner. He's been insisting that she tench voice in Jacksonville anil it has broken up her intimate friendship with Mre, Kxn Mantes. Esther Meade did tell me about Maude Wagoner. She's out West leaching Palmer Penmanship to the cowboy . Johnny: Marie. I've been thinking! Bettie Slaughter and Ethel Thomas must think as much ot each other as you and 1. They have an apartment at Ball Hornet. Bettie is giving readings for the aged and sick ami Ethel is writing and delivering snort stories tor the training sehool at Jacksonville. Marie: Willard Ford (who was just been to Jacksonville lecturing on the natural beauties of America! reports that Weston Lyons is starring in Zeigtield Follies. Johnny: It seems quite a number of our class are staging. William Newton is elephant tamer in the Mighty Haag Circus, while Frances Leely. his wile, Is elephant rider. Leona Baskin is the horseljack rider. Haag insists that his company would go to the dogs if it were not for his Jacksonville Normal performers, Marie: Oh! yes! Johnny. Esther Meade told me she walked in Bookhammers Beauty Shop to get a marcelle and whom do you suppose gave it to her? Bo Cawthom! and Esther Meade said it was a dream Johnny: 1 was down town this morning and S. M. Christian has the following sign in front of his store: All brands of twenty-cent snuff now fifteen: ail twenty-five cent brands now twenty cents. Mr. Christian told me that Forest Bailey is coaching girls' football at Heeds Mil) and that Mary Pope Sanders i� assisting her. The people don't like Mary Pope so much—she uses too strong language in emphasizing the importance ol girls' football games in a school Marie: Johnny, have you been to Crystal Lake since you and Buster were there years ago? Johnny: No. why. Marie: You must go. Up in one corner of the lake is this huge sign In box-car letters: Low rates for honeymoonem. Tennent Lee is opera-ling this excursion boat and as an incentive (or young men to gel married, he agrees to take on all newly-weds at half price. He told me the first couples he took at that rate were: Mary Fleming Laney. ar.d Rutledge Daugette: Norma Williams and Virgil Rogers; Mary Miller and Woodv King. Johnny: Dr. Daugette received such an interesting letter from B. C. Poker not long ago. He's in Africa selling green spectacles ami nail files to the natives and thriving financially. Marie: If we don't intend being the 1848 model of old maid we must '|blt sitting here gossiping and get up and go to a show or somewhere. Pate llrrslfoisc cQeacoala Class History If you should examine the records of each senior in our class of '26 you would not likely find grades highly superior to the grades of other seniors who have graduated; nor would you find any better class of boys and girls. But when you begin to compare our class of '26 a a whole with other classes, which have left the State Normal School, an to school spirit, spirit of cooperation, special abilities, or as students; you would not find any better class than we have this year. It is a pleasure for each of ua to say that he is a member of the class of '26. It has been only two years since we. with a few exceptions, were in high school. Some of us have had the chance to go out and obtain the splendid training as teachers; therefore we have not all been together two years successively; but long enough to learn to love and cooperate as a group. When we entered Normal School we found the task much harder, due to the fact that we had more competition In all school activities. Here we have had the many high school stars to compete with where in high school we had but a few. In spite of all this we have learned to resist the temptations of turning back. When a boy or girl is turned out as a finished product of high school, he or she thinks all the requirements for life have been met with and mastered. But as Seniors in the Normal School we realize that the task is not half finished, but just begun. Many of our high school gaities are very speedily recalled when we begin to realize that we are about to say good bye to another Alma Mater. It is not a direct pleasure for ua to say that we are proud of the name seniors, and that our task here is nearly complete ; but it is a pleasure for us to know that we are to be awarded, possibly the most valuable prize we have ever won: a State Normal School diploma. Our class has made possible the V. W. and Y. M. C. A. which are improving very rapidly, with almost 100 per cent student membership. Our class has put forth every possible effort to cause our two splendid literary societies, the Calhoun and Morgan, to function with much enthusiasm. Our class has taken every' active step possible to make the Teacoala. u success; the first undertaking of its kind in the history of the Jacksonville Normal School. It has also been a pleasure for ils to back all athletics 100 per cent, foot ball, basketball and base ball, our three major games for boys, and basket ball for girls. —J.

Although we are few in number, what we lack in quantity we make up In quality. We do not boast that we have done much, so far. for this great school, for we cannot be thHt arrogant, when we think of what the school is doing for us. We came here inexperienced boys and girls to prepare to be teachers. 1 wish I could give an individual history of each member of the class, but I must limit myeeif to giving a history of the group. When our Normal opened on September 15, 1925, girls and boys rushed into tr.ese halls from all over Alabama. The first few days were our happiest tor we had but a tew cares and nothing seemed to worry us. A tew were homesick and discouraged, but in a little while things began to quiet down and everybody was working hard, The whole class began in restrained eagerness to struggle for honors conferred upon those who do excellent work. We soon discovered that we had a group of keen and lively students. Many of the girls and boys were strong and healthy, and went into athletics with soul and body. Again we find them engaging themselves in the work of the Calhoun and Morgan Literary Societies. One of the most significant events of the whole year was the annual debate between the Uterary societies. We feel greatly honored to know that our class president. Hoy Thomas, was chosen first speaker of the Calhoun Literary Society, w hich was the winning side this year. We juniors proved quite indispensable to the welfare of S. N. S. in its intellectual and social activities. On every occasion we were called forth for service. Oh! shall we ever forget the splendid times we have had at S. N. S. I am sure none of us shall. We have made our Junior year a success, but we must strive for more success in our Senior year. As we close the history of the Junior Class of 1926, let us trust that every student will return next year. May we enter Into our Senior year with courage and with the determination to bring honor, not only to ourselves, but to our class, our school, and our great nation. —Jessilee Watson.

Chorus Second Ver e Page forty-four LITERARY A SONNET ON BOOKS I like to wander through pages of books While I am sitting in comfortable nooks; For then I dream of days gone by. As these pages idly I let fly. So one knows all the wonderful lands These story books put into our hands. They tell of the folks of other days In such picturesque and wonderful ways. You really feel that you are there Helping them their pleasures to share. I then forget the world and all And drift like water over the fall. This is the most delightful way That I have found tor spending a day. —Anna Lee Moore. -J NORMA I, BELLS Our life at Normal is run by a bell. And if you ask me. this is very well. At 6:45 a gong sounds out And from our beds we students rout. Our dressing then is to be hurried And we are always flurried. At 7:15 another bell peals And down to breakfast every girl reels. At 8 o'clock sharp classes are begun And you must be wise if you miss one. Each hour of the day two bells must ring To show that to classes your steps must swing. A bell tells yon when it’s time to lunch; Another calls you always (rom the bunch.’' Then back to classes by a bell you rush And by a bell they shatter all the hush. A bell says dinner and down tve go A bell says quiet-hour and study you know. This is the end and it is well. For life at S'ormal is----a bell! bell! bell —Anna Lee Moore.

For the past week he had been in this state of excitement. Today he was almost wild; everyone in the office was upset. Every few minutes John would pull out hi watch to see what time it was. ' Would the minutes never pass? Finally the big clock on the wall struck twelve, and John was out of the building before the last stroke was sounded I am sure that you want to know what all the excitement was about. Well, it was just this'. Alabama was playing Centre that very afternoon' John had been the star player on the Alabama team the year before and would have been on It still, it he hadn't been forced to work to care for the family since his lather's death. Wouldn't you be excited too? I think any Dov would be when his old team was going to pUv and when he was wishing he was with them, as John was wishing he was At the ball-grounds we see John dashing through the crowds making his way down to a seat in the front row. He just mustn't miss a single play in that game. He wondered if Brown was as good as he had been the year before. Who was the new boy on the end ? Where was Smith ? Could Berry hold the place that he had last year? Oh! How he did wish he could be out there with them; he would just show them how to play football. At last the whistle sounded. John was even trembling. Could they hold them? Look at that big Centre team. Oh. if he could only help them ; all he could do was to sit on the side lines and cheer. What good would cheering do when they wanted to fight? The whistle again. Come on. Alabama, sang the stands. Roll on Crimson Tide cried the crowd. Still Centre was ahead. John was iu misery. Would they never get there? Yes. they were going to make It. There, It was a touchdown for Alabama! Good old Alabama! Another one! Oh! wasn't that wonderful? Of course he knew they could do it all the time. Over the rail he went. He must tell them how they could play and how proud he was that he had once played on that team. But no. wasn't that Mary, he had seen? Football left his mind; he had another game to play—one in which he could tBke part, Would he win? ell. if he was going to try he had better be catching her. So off he went at break-neck speed again. Another game: well, isn't that what life is—one game right after another? —Mildred Johnston. ‘Toeacoala LOVERS Down by the brook In a shady nook, Two lovers sat in estacy. They laughed, they talked, ADd nodded their heads In lover-like, joyful glee. “If you come with me Quite happy we shall be. We shall dance and sing And be gay together. Nothing shall daunt us Not even the weather. Not a word she said. She only dropped her head And listened to his prate. As the breeze gently sighed, On and on he raved— The red bird to his mate. —Emma Lou Campbell -J- WORK AND PLAY When I was but a little chap. They told me to go play. For when I’d grown to be a man I'd have to work all day. I’d run and tumble with my pup. The only pal I had. And when the day had turned to night I'd be as tired as Dad. —S. M. Christian. ■ i— jH Seacoala A SEEKER OF CULTURE On a large plantation in Southern Virginia lived many negro families. One old negro family had a daughter to whom they were anxious to give an education. She had been attending school in one of the largest Virginia Colleges, and was home for the summer vacation. Ail the negroes on the plantation had been going to the usual summer revival at Ebeneier, Hey dere, Eliza, is you gwine ter church ter night?” Yes, I’s jist been over ter Sis Lena's ter see if she want come and keep de younguns fer me ter go.” That night about eight o'clock, a group of darkies were going down the road hollering and singing. Aunt Ann and Uncle Jake had worked hard this year and had made enough money to buy them a new wagon and mule. They seemed very happy over their purchase, because here of late the old man's rheumatism had been troubling him: and now their daughter. Rosie, had come home from college, and she couldn't afford to walk to church. She might perspire on her red georgette dress, or ruin her blond-kid pumps. Sam, you and Edna go to dat barn and git some of dat ole hay fer you kids to set on. Me and yo' pa am gwine ter set in dem two new cheers Brudder Bob fotch over here yisterdav. Ma, where did dem cheers come from 7 Edna, what is I told you 'bout axin' me so many questions? You knows I swopped dem two little old red pigs to Brudder Bob fer dem cheers. Whut's to come of dis set of niggers dec's coming along, I just can't tell. There's yo' Sis Rosie, been off up yonder to dat cemetery gitting edercated. She come back home and can't even make a hoe-cake. I ax' her tother day ter hope me scrub dat kitchen. No. 1 can't she say. I might break my finger nail , and anyway I am busy with this embroidery, Hit takes all me and yo' pa kin rake and scrape fer dat gal. She has ter have dem cleansing creams tar pul on dat flat nose of hers and perfumes tar make her smell good. If she'd use a little of dat lye soap, me and Sis Suzie done worked our heads off ter make, and a little bit of water, she want need so much of dem costly things. 1 jist don’ know whut I'll do wid dat gal. she Is gwine ter break us up. and all dis t'other gang of chilluns ter raise. Rosie called from the wagon, Come on. mother, and let's go to church or we shall not get there In time to hear the minister deliver the benediction. Aunt Ann utid Uncle Jake seated themselves in the two new chairs: Rosie. Edna. Sam and four of their neighbor's children were sealed on the hay with six big water mellons. Rosie was entertaining her audience with stories of dormitory life and the number of times she had grits each week. Jake. It sho does seem good not ter tiave ter walk to church. whispered Aunt Ann. Pagt forlf-tigkl 1 wuz jist er thinking that myself- I'm glad we bought dis new wagon and mule, if it did take all de money u had. You knows Ann. me and you wuz (fitting too old ter walk ter church, and dey can't do wid out us. The night was hot and sultry, and poor flopped-eared Jane was getting iired; so right on top of a long hill one mile from church she balked. I'ncle Jake petted and begged, but that old mule would not move. The only thing to do was to get out and hitch the lazy rascal beside the road and go the rest of the way on foot. Old Brother Russel preached a heart-melting sermon for the sinner. But Rosie didn't seem to be paying very much attention to the preacher. For. a girls do. she was gazing across the house at the men. Just across the aisle from her set a high-stepper.'' who had been working at Pittsburg. in the coal mines Rosie punched Edna and said, Edna, you know Ned Halcomb has never had such a good looking suit as that one Henry has on.” Ned was Rosie's old lover. Edna only answered. He sho am dressed up, but I don’t like him as good as I does Ned Halcomb. Rosie talked on to Edna. But Ned is not as stylish and up to date, and Pm sure Mr. Reed has lots of money. Das de way you is. Sis Rosie, you'se always fall fer de looks and money, not fer de man. Whut's yer gwine ter do when Ned comes around after church? Just dodge him. of course. Brother Russel ended his sermon by calling for members. Edna. Sam and all the other children went up and gave their hearts, souls, and bodies to the Lord. While this was going on. Henry slipped over and sat down by Rosie. He asked to accompany her home after church. Finally the old preacher dismissed the congregation. Ned stood patiently just outside the church door, waiting for Rosie. As she came by. he stepped up to her and said, Rosie, you sho does look sweet dis night. Come on wid me. I's done borrowed a spat-bran new rubber-tired buggy to kerry you home in. “Mr. Keed is to accompany me home. Now, Rosie is yer gwine ter treat yo' po' Ned dat way? You know I loves you better dan dat nigger.’ Oh! but he is just back from Pittsburg and Is so interesting that it is a pleasure to be with him. Rosie turned to go with Henry Reed, and left Neil wondering why Rosie had acted like this. Henry and Rosie walked slowly down the dark road. Their conversation was dragging now, as Rosie had told him all about her happy time at college. Mr. Reed, will you please quit squeezing my arm? Miss Rosie, you know Pm not hurting you, replied Henry as he slipped his arm about the girl's waist. Rosie dear, he said, 1 love you RAMONA WOOO LIBRAS' JACKS0NV1UX STATE UNI Pegt i� 'TBeacoa a with all of my heart. I’m going to carry you back to Pittsburg with me. This bit of flirtation so pleased Rosie that she didn't notice where she was walking. Into a wagon rut she stepped, and popped off the heels of her blond-kid pumps. This made Rosie very angry but she was determined Henry should never know. She was getting thoroughly diegusted. Why bad ehe left Ned. to come with Henry? Rosie, you know we could cut a high-figger life in town.” But this flirtation was never finished, for turning a curve in the road they came suddenly upon Ned Halcomb in the borrowed buggy. 'Hey. Ned. will you pleare take me home? I have just ruined my new pumps. She didn't wait for him to answer her, but leaped Into the vehicle. The gay town nigger gaped down the road after rattling wheels, above which sounded the joyful laugh of a seeker of culture” who had waked up in time. WORK IN SCHOOL Work in school for some is play. To others it may bring dismay, But work in school described by Is to write a poem in English C. —Jessilee Watson —Ethel Craddock. f’ag' fit's L ‘fieacoaJa Football ‘?5eacoala Cfo the Scrubs [Tdtler] The following was written on the tombstone of a certain lieutenant who was killed on Flanders Field. He played four years on the scrubs. This was sufficient index to hi character. It showed that he cared not for self glory and that he died for the fame of hi country. The scrubs go through a grind every day. against the Varsity, who are naturally better than they, and labor like men for the fame of their school. They take the knocks and blows that go with the game without a murmur and keep on fighting: they well know that no glory Is to be theirs; they know that there are some twenty-odd men who will have a chance before they do; they know that they will never have a chance to thrill the stands with spectacular play. They give everything through loyalty and school spirit with no hope of gain. It is customary in some school to present a man that has plByed four years on the scrub team with a Varsity letter. This is nothing but right. They have done almost as much for the school as the Varsity men. What could the first team do without the scrubs? Little scrimmage, which is so necessary, would they get. We should all take off our bats t the scrubs. Cfo The Coaches Just this space in honor of our coaches who have made our teams into dean hard fighting teams that are known for their true sportsmanship.

Pagt --s CSeacoala Our basket ball Teams Another season of basket ball lias passed, and another page of history has been turned by each team. The one thing toward which we strive is to have clean, hard fighting teams, and tho' we may lose we have in reality won. As we look over the seasons record we find that our boy have only won a few games in comparison to the ones lost but they were all by a margin of a few points. The season started with a rush and Piedmont “Y fell before the “Purple Tigers. Oglethorpe and Tech. “Rale'' eased out by a few points, and more games were played, Boaz Independents fell l efore the Purple Tigers and then The Huntsville College Blue Devils” met their fate. The Inst game played with Howard was the best of the season. The Purple Tigers were two points ahead at the half. The score was tied and two minutes to play. As a last desperate effort the flashy Bancroft scored two long tries winning the game for Howard. The Normal Co-eds finished their season by defeating the fair lassies from Auburn. Through the brillant work of the entire team, and the coaching of Miss Jobe, the team had a very successful season. Howard fell twice. Athens followed twice. Auburn failed twice. And last but not least. Peabody. 1921 Southern Champions, fell to the tune of 25-24. The Murtreecburo Normal I-assies defeated us at Murfreesboro by ten points, and later won the Southern Championship I'agr tulii-lwa Base Ball Prospecb With the blossoming of spring, and the rising of sap in the trees, the yearning and call of the out-of-doors comes to us. With it comes hiking, tennis, swimming, volley ball, and base ball. Just as that call comes to every school, so it comes to us. When the call for base ball practice comes we find that we have very few letter men back, having lost some of our best hitters and fielders through graduation. We have Check l.aminack back at short, and Taber at first, and it remains to be seen who the other comers will be filled by. We have a lot of good material up from the high school and should be able to fill the vacancies with it. We hare a good man to head the hurling corps. Beck has had worlds of experience and promises to be an efficient player-manager. We should give all credit to him for our team for when we couldn't find a man suited for the coaching job he gladly took it over. The season schedule hasn't been announced as yet, but we are sure that we will have quite a few hard, and interesting games at home. We hope to be able to christen our athletic field which has just been completed, by winning the first game played at home. fatr tirlf-ISrtr yells Stand 'em on their head! Stand 'em on their feet!

To say the least, progress is determined to a large degree by fate. What is the school, or institution, that starts at tile top? No traditions; no future, and no school spirit. We have built S. N. S.. and started from the bottom. Back in 83 the Normal school came into existence. We have, through hard work, and cooperation, made our girl's dormitory, training school, gym. and administration building possible. Now we are taking another step forward. Our dreams are at last realized. Our new men's dormitory, with all modern conveniences and comforts, is now becoming a reality. We are proud of our traditions and history, and are proud that we started at the bottom. We have established the Teacoala. Another tradition to be made. We have worked, and hope to see the day when it will be a book to compare in site to our school. There are more steps to climb; library building, a new administration building, and two more years to fce added to our course. Within the next year or two we hope to make the latter a reality. So let us strive and work toward the goal of making our institution the best possible. —Editor. ALABAMA Just this space as a tribute to one of our sister institutions. We feel that they have honored us. Alabama, and the South. They accomplished a feat which the critics said was impossible. They fought for Alabama, and we are proud of them. They went up against the greatest of odds, and came out bleeding, choking, and bruised, but still lighting, and victorious. We have a football team that we are proud of too. but to Alabama we pay tribute, as the greatest football team the South ever produced. A dean, hard fighting, and well trained team. Alabama! Our state university. —Editor. •irtf-ritkl CONTESTS Through out the ages man has taken part in contests. Skill of every kind has been tested. Endurance has been tried in the marathon races. Speed in the dashes. There seems to be a contest for every skill. New sports are introduced every year. Some are tried and discarded, and others live on through the centuries. You will find the person, no doubt, who thinks that athletics shouldn't be in the colleges and schools of today. Again you find the other extremist who argues that athletics are more important than the usual course of study. We try to reach the mid-point here and keep each in its place. Two of the greatest and most enjoyable events of the year are when wc have our basket ball tournaments for high schools. The girls tournament of this year being attended by twenty odd teams, representing most of the towns, and high schools of this part of the atate. The boya tournament was attended by thirty teams, being the largest held in the state. We are glad to have these tournaments held in our gym for we believe that they develope clean athletics, and we hope that they may be even bigger in the future, —Editor. 1‘ate litlji-t Men's Calhoun Literary Society Pagt tertatg History of the Men's Calhoun Literary Society In the year 1884 the first Literary Society of the Jacksonville State Normal School came into existence. It was called the Calhoun Literary Society in honor of John C. Calhoun, former senator from South Carolina. The Society was organized as a result of the realization on the part of the taculty and the young’ men of the Normal, of the need of thia great factor for the training of young men in the essentials of good citizenship. Until 1899. the first year of the administration of president C. W Oaugette. the Calhoun was the only Literary Society in the State Normal School. At this time the enrollment and interest had grown to such an extent, that it was thought l !� t to divide the membership into two societies.. The decision was made by the President of the college and lots were cast to determine which group should retain the name Cilhoun. ihe other group of members honored the name of Senator John T. Morgan by naming their society (or him. and remaining memlwrs retained the old name. Calhoun. Immediately after the formation of the two literary societies, an annual debate was held, which was recognized to be so educational and profitable that it has been repeated every year, until now the records show that the two societies have engaged in this contest of wita for about twenty six yearn. The Calhoun Society has continued to push onward and upward during all the years of its history. Calhouns too have won their share of the annual debates. The last one which was conducted February 20. 1926 was another victory for them. The society is now composed of twenty five young men. who are endeavoring to develop themselves socially, morally and mentally. In this endeavor many things are being accomplished and among them is a better understanding of parliamentary law. efficient training in public speaking und a more thorough knowledge of the problems that now face the American people.

From this time, it haa functioned as one of the most progressive and satisfactory student activities to Ite found in any school or college. This society is founded upon one of the great principles of democracy —etiual opportunity for all—and the Golden Rule with We train each one” as our motto! From among its members are to be found some of the most eloquent lecturers, shrewd lawyers, able Judges, eucccssful teachers and honest citizens. The members of this society are young men and young women of character and pep. They rally to the noble cause with all the enthusiasm of young Spartans. This society meets and participates in all the student activities and clubs of Jacksonville. It meets regularly each Friday night in the main building in room 9 and renders interesting programs. This society is the most initiative of any pupils organization of the Normal. Its members are always pleasant, hospitable, and entertaining. This society stands strictly cn the religion of our forefathers and prohibits protanfty and unmanly conduct at all times. This society cooperates with the faculty in encouraging honesty In the school rooms, playgrounds and dormitories. Ail parents should feel free to encourage their boys and girls to join the Morgans for religious and moral protection. tDomen's Morgan Literary Society Srvrutf-iu CThe Morgan Spirit The spirit of the Morgen Literary Society is embedded in the words. ■■Loyalty and Work. The Morgans are steady and sure members of a working group We believe that one of the very best ways to develop talent, while In the plastic stage, is through the work ot the literary society. We also believe that essential to our work is our loyalty toward those with and for whcm we work. We are very anxious to know what our co-workers think of the strength of our loyalty. We a� k ourselves the question: Is the power of loyalty worth cultivating? We are continually giving conscious effort toward raising the standard of our society. Our motto is We Train Each One. and the greatest inspiration and pleasure we get from society work is that of cultivating our own talents and helping to cultivate the talents of others. Most people find that their Ute falls into two experiences—the Mup-times and the down-times. In our society work we strive to prepare ourselves not only for the ups” but also for the “downs.” Our society life is not a life of fixed rules, but it is a life of growth. We know that society work offers but one of the many modes of training with which life abounds. As we observe the richness of life and the enthusiasm it cannot fail to inspire, we know that the possibilities for accomplishment can never be exhausted. Then we realize that our society work takes its place as one of the effective means of preparation whereby we may meet life fairly, express ourselves completely, and contribute ilchly to humanity and humanity's ideals. It is said that all the world loves play, and this too, is certainly a predominant feature of the Morgans. We try to bring new things into the lives of our society members by having them amused by others and teaching them to share in the making of their own fun. We believe in the “all-are-allke theory of democracy and feel sure that out of this true attitude of mind, snobbishness will never grow. As we become aware of the poesibilties in ail organizations for cultivating group ideals and interests, we come to appreciate the oneness of the cause of all society workers and to value our place among them.

'2 eacoa a Nineteen hundred twenty-rive mark the origin of our High School, This achool bears the name of State Normal School from which it has originated. A school that rests within the shadow of such an outstanding institution is destined to success. When it became known that the Normal had founded a Senior High School.-students from all over the state and even neighboring states immediately took advantage of this opportunity for acquiring knowledge. We invaded the little town ot Jacksonville and stormed the halls of learning. Students were new to each other but were eager and bubbling over with enthusiasm. Inspired by the encouragement of our noble princpal and loyal teachers, our motto literally became. Down with ignorance and on to Victory.” Athletically speaking, our school has already made a brilliant history —a record that future students will cherish. Only one defeat was suffered duiing the football season. The same fighting spirit that manifested on the gridiron has been carried over to basket ball, and an enviable record has been made in this sport by both the boys and the girls learns. The school is one hundred percent strong in support of its athletics, ever ready to cheer and encourage. Realizing this, the piavers grasp new strength and determination. Victory is their goal and they reach it. We shall now give three cheers tor our taithful and untiring coaches, Miss Isabel Miller and Mr. Luther Samuels. Each class is organized for social as well as business purposes. A complete corps of officers have been chosen to administer the affairs of the cIhss. The school is divided into two societies, the Robert E. Lee and the Frank L. Stanton, and debating is an interesting feature of the year. These societies meet regularly once a week and considerable loyalty and society spirit hae already been developed. Activities for the building of character and education are presented in various ways. Both students end faculty stand tor unity, loyalty and co-operation. When shadows present them-•elves our teachers stand ready to encourage. The shadows fade and the nay becomes bright again. One notable phase of our school life which results in a more thorough development of the students is the fact that the different dusses are called upon to give entertaining and worth-while programs in the High School ecsemblv. Those program are conducted under the guidance of the teachers. This gives students the opportunity tor developing self expression. One ot the very attractive teatures of the assembly programs is the tinging, into which every one joins most enthusiastically. We assemble with the Normal School twice each week. Our band furnishes music for all occasions. Another interesting and much enjoyed activity of the year was a Hallowe’en party given for the entire school. This was a brilliant affair and all joined in the merriment. The history would not be complete without personating the ones who are responsible for the wondertul success of our High School. Our principal. Mr. H. C. Panned is himself a loyal sun of the Jacksonville Normal School. He obtained his A. B. degree from our own State University, and to thif added the degree of Master of Arts trom Teachers College, Columbia University. Miss Isabel Miller, a graduate of Peabody College has the Hnglieh department, and Miss Sue M. Sprott, teacher of Science and Mathematics, holds her degree from Randolph Macon Woman's College and also had training at University of South Carolina and Peabody Collegi- As a school, the Senior High of the Jacksonville State Normal has made a splendid start, and all indications are that her progress is one of sturdy and continuous growth. Louise Patterson cTSeacoala Class Poem In the minds of the verdant freshmen The grand old senior stands. The senior who for three tong years Has fulfilled freshman plans. The visions of each dreamy hour Have come to truth at last. He's climbed the height of Knowledge Tower; His hardships all are past. Day in. day out. o’er rugged path He's trudged his onward way. He’s mastered science. French, and math ; He's done without his play. Like most of us. he thought he knew His work was without pay. But now he feels his wages high: He’s reached Commencement Day! Onward into life he'll go And whatever he may do. He'll learn to say with those who work; Success awaits the true.” Mary Frances McDearman. cf5eacoah Class Prophecy Since the day of man's creation there have been many wonderful prophet . 1. a prophet but not one of tho e. will revert to the custom of prophesying the harvest of the future by the sowing of the past.

Oh yes mother. Nell say there’ a dandy show on tonight and she asked a hunch of us to go. “You know, kind of a party. May 1 go? Where's daddy? And he’s not home yet 7“ After the first storm of words Mary picked up the hooks she had dropped to the floor and began arranging them on the table. Mary's mother had been very1 quiet during the chatter and she was still pausing to see if Mary was through. Finally she spoke. Why. Mary. I thought you knew that we were calling on the Jones family tonight 7 Oh grand. exclaimed Mary, rather surprising her mother. Mother. Mable Jones is going to the show. Now mother, you know I don't like to sit and listen to the talking.1' she added in a pleading tone. Mrs. Hollawav was silent, during which footsteps were heard on the pavement. Hello”, came from the man who had just entered the living room. Why its you daddy , cried Mary running to meet him, “Daddy please tell mother to say that 1 may go to the show, begged Mary in a low voice, Oh. run along .Mary, we'll see to that later.” he said with a glow In hi eye that Mary liked and knew meant the desired answer. Just as the dishes were finished Mary heard the tramp, tramping, feet of the members of her party. She bade her parents goodbye and joined the theatre goers. Mr. and Mrs. Hollawav extinguished the light and they too bent on a night of pleasure. The show was over and the party had enjoyed the usual drug store treat and were on their way home. As they were nearing Mary's home she noticed that there were no lights in the house, but she told herself that her parents were surely home and had forgotten to leave the lights burning All were gay except Mary. In her heart she felt a tiny bit of uneasiness. She opened the gate and bade her friends a goodnight. Unconsciously she glanced in the direction of the house and was almost sure she saw someone move quietly behind a rose bush. She pulled herself together and skipped down the walk trying to appear unafraid. By the time she had reached the steps she was trembling like a leaf. She was convinced that there was someone behind the rose bush and she saw it move. In her mind was running. My. what shall I do Where's daddy 7 What can I do. Very quietly she stepped upon the porch with a slight glance toward the rosebush. She pushed the button and the lights would not turn on. What was the matter? She opened the door. Gee. how dark. The room was the darkest she had ever seen. She moved on very slowly. Was that someone moving? Someone was in the room with her. How many? Would daddy never come? Cou'- tt be burglars? Or kidnapers? She stood very still while these thoughts raced through her brain. She flnally said to herself. 'Til find the light. She started to the button but as she f nf humltfd stepped across the room someone suddenly threw n terrible thing over her mouth. She tried her best to scream hut not a sound could she make. The man was tying her up. Her hands were bound. She struggled but all in vain. Her captor gave a little tap on the floor and immediately a second person entered. Just at that moment she knew they were getting ready to leave the house with her. She heard the familiar click of the gate outside. Why didn't they run? “Was that daddy or some more burglars? Every muscle in her body was tense and every nerve on its edge. It seemed ages before she heard footsteps on the porch. Yes. there were two. Why Mary, not home yet? her heart leaped up as she heard her lather say these words. Oh. he's just in time. she thought but stood very still. But why didn't they run ? Her father proceeded across the room and turned on the light “Oh. brother, what a trick you have played on me , she exclaimed as she recognised her assailant. And who ?“ ventured Mary, glancing at the other man stand- ing on the opposite aide of the room. Oh. 'ecuse me sis. come here Jack. I want you to meet my folks. This is Jack, my college chum. He came down to spend the week-end with me. exclaimed Bill. Well, if that doesn't ! eat it”, said Mary as she disappeared into her bed room. I never will have the nerve to see him again after his seeing me In this predicament. —Ruth Burnham. --------4-------- IDho's Itfho in J n H. 5 Most popular girl.............................Nell Jennings Most popular boy .....

I can’t do it.” “What is wrong with you? 1 thought it possible for you to do most anything that is reasonable.” said Bill. “See for yourself. cried Fred tossing a letter over to Bill. Bill found It was an invitation for Fred to spend the week-end with a wealthy aunt whom he had never seen, in a near by city. She wanted him to help entertain a young lady who was to be her guest during this time. •Pshaw. I've another engagement. What do 1 care alaiut meeting the young lady. I’ve got the peschest girl, met her down at the seashore last summer. he said. Fred. 1 wouldn’t disappoint my aunt. I’d cancel those engagements shd help her nut all 1 could. said Bill, in a serious (one of voice. I can’t Say, Bill, help me, If I don’t go—she'll he a little disappointed. I’ve a little secret. She is going to will me part of her fortune and she might not do this if I failed her. Fred studied and iMindered long and then with a hurrah he shouted enthusiastically. I've thought out a plan. Bill you go in my place.” Fred. I can't.” said Bill emphatically. ”your aunt would know It was nut you and more than that I don't want to deceive her. Why man. she's never seen me. Come on Bill, help me out this time.” begged Fred. I'll help you. but remember, don't you ever get me balled up in any such circumstance again. answered Bill. Fred told Bill all of hi family history so (hat he might talk with authority. Bill, arriving in the city was met by a carriage and taken to the auntie's house. When he reached the home of the aunt he was ushered into the presence of two ladies. One was a middle aged woman who had a charming smile and welcome for him The other was a young lady about twenty years of age and was as beautiful as any picture he had ever viewed. Time seemed to be on wings to Bill. They hail a jolly time going to dances and parties. He sent Fred a telegram saying. Wonderful time. Will he sorry when up.” Fred, with a smile read the telegram and said. “Good for you old hoy. I'm glad its you instead ji-te. Fred was having troubles of his own. He had not heard from his gir! for two weeks and his mind continually wavered from hi work to thoughts of her. He wanted to talk the matter over with Bill. L'nahle to stand the mental torment any longer he packed his grip hurriedly and started. Arriving at his aunt's he asked for Bill. Bill, whom was in the garden with Mar)', came into the house. On entering the room he was so surprised to see Fred be exclaimed. Fred Scott. I didn't expect to find you here. They grasped each other hand and forgot for the moment that they had exchanged names. n„ s After seating themselves they began talking How's thing coming'.1 asked Fred Fine. I don't Relieve your aunt even suspect the joke we've played. .aid Bill. Now the aunt had heard the startling cry of Bill. Although not wishing to be an eave� -dropper he caught enough to arouse her curiosity. She immediately became interested in the converse ton. t'nable to bear the suspense any longer she suddenly burst into the room demanding am explanation. Fred, blushing in pride and shame, ami wishing to tell hi aunt the secret, stammered. Bill, let me tell aunt all about it. I’ll call you back when we've settled account . After Bill had left the room they were seated and Fred began, aunt. I've dune you wrong, but when you hate heard my story 1 hope you can forgive me. He told her of his troubles, how be had lost trace of his girl, and when he found her he would make her hi wife, how he had begged Bill to come In hir place. He asked her not to think hard of Bill. The aunt war very much distressed at this and could only reply. Fred, though I had never seen you I felt that you and Mary were for eath other. 1 planned this meeting months ago. and you have disappointed me greatly. If you can't have an interest in Mary we will part. Aunt. replied Fred, in an almost undertone, she can never mean anything to me and we will do as you say The young nephew paced the floor in silence and then started for the (ioor. Without a word he caught the knob Intending to make hi exit as quietly as possible. Suddenly before lie knew it. the door flew open and to hi utmost surprise he discovered Mary standing before him. Only a glance, a startled cry Mary and they were rushing with outstretched bands, forgetful of the aunt and Bill. Fred' aunt, now understanding that Mary, her friend, was Fred's lost love, retired from the room on the arm of Bill. Well, was all she said, but she wa satisfied. Inez Camp CAN YOl IMAGINE????

After two weeks of training the squad was in good physical condition, ready to take up their regular practice on the home field. Several members of the squad had never played foot ball before coming to J. S. R S. However this did not prevent the team from making a very good record. To Coach Samuels we give much of the honor and credit for the victories and splendid spirit that was manifested by the whole team of 192$. The first game of the season was with O'Hatchle and resulted in victory for the Normal Hi. The game brought forth enthusiasm and pep among the players and the student body which lasted throughout the season. Our other games were with the neighboring teams and resulted in victories for the local squad, with the exception of one defeat and one tie. The strong team of Cherokee County High School at Center defeated us by the close score of 6-0. The game with Ashland was a hard fought game but ended with neither side having scored. SCHEDULE J. N.

O,, t, ;—; 'Taeacoala Qirls' Basketball Team Out of the nine games played by the girls only three were lost. Most of our players were new at the game as this was our first year for an organized team. Despite this handicap they made an excellent record. Miss Miller who coached the team did everything within her power to make the team a dandy one and with her untiring efforts and the co-operation of each member of the team the Normal Hi team was outstanding. One hu-dr,J fight Boys' Basketball Team The boy’s basket ball team of 1925-26 has made a splendid record. This is the first year for an organized team, and in spite of the many drawbacks the team as well as the entire student body is proud of this year's results. Out of the fifteen games played only five were lost. The losing games were counter-balanced by winning games. Coach Samuels has worked most faithfully to develop and to present a strong team, to him and to the boys are due much honor and praise. One hundred Frank L Stanton Literary Society The Frank L.

High School Band Owr hundred thirirrn beacon a Hallowe'en Party One of the most Interesting events of the year was the Hallowe'en Party given by the High School at the Masonic Hall of Jacksonville. Plans for the party were made by committee chosen from the different classes. The large crowd which attended was entertained by thrilling games and the usual stunts appropriate for the occasion; bobbing for apples, candy On strings, fortune telling. The refreshments consisted of hot chocolate sandwiches, and cakes. The latter part of the evening was devoted to the ringing of songs after which ail voted a pleasant time and departed. -I- Chimney Peak Hike After many days of planning a crowd including Miss Sprott's Science classes met in front of the main building one sunny afternoon at one o'clock to hike to Chimney Peak. Each member of the crowd picked up one of the many things to be taken and set out on hi way. After about two hour of walking we reached Chimney Peak. On reaching the top we viewed the valley wherein lay Jacksonville. After resting a few minutes the John Smith Order was given and we all busied ourselves preparing our supper. Some went in search of water, others built the fire, others prepared the food. In a short while a delightful meal was before us. After having eaten we descended the mountains and came to Jacksonville to witness the games uf basket ball in which both our boys and girls participated and were the victors.
