I, Fw X5 -ax' A your minds the pleasant memories of your high school days and which will help you to renew friendships which were form- ed in the class room and busy corridors of our beautiful new building. Because material from every department in school and from the alumni has been brought together and arranged in a manner to make the book the col- laborated result of our best efforts, we believe that this number of the Phoenix with the variety and range of its contents, will be of unusual interest to the stu- dent body and Alumnif In this issue of our annual the two new features which have been included are the School and City and the Alumni sections. The former contains pic- tures and pen sketches of historic and well-known spots in and about Janesville, the latter contains snaps, cartoons, and interesting news about our worthy pre- decessors. Some of them have demonstrated their loyalty and interest by send- ingus letters hlled with vivid accounts of their present life and happy reminis- cences of former school days. As you turn these pages you will discover that running parallel to the theme of change and progress expressed throughout the art work in the divisional pages is an appreciation for those principles in life which remain stable, un- touched by the complexities of modern social systems. We have tried to pre- serve the traditions of our school as well as to interpret for you our part in class room and extra-curricular activities, with the hope that we may not only cherish worthy precedents but that we may be able to contribute our part to them. XVe feel a great debt of gratitude is due to the business men and to the- janesville citizens. They have placed their faith and hopes in us and they have given us this structure, such as few students have in which to work and study. Here we have been able to form and strengthen friendships, and most of all to develop the characteristics of American citizens: may this book express in some measure the appreciation we feel due to our parents, teachers, and friends.

The people of Janesville have given C!-Q A a very concrete example of their interest in our welfare by providing this splendid school building which has made possible a phenomenal growth of class room and extra-curricular activities. . Evidence of the interest displayed in education by the provision of such a high school as ours has led us very naturally to a consideration of educational progress in Janesville. Our account of the early history of local schools has been compiled from one written by Mr. Buell who was a former Superintendent of Schools. VVe have continued to trace the increasing interest in education as' it has been reflected in better physical equipment through to the point where that interest has found expression in the erection of the building which we now occupy. However, we haveinot only striven to picture to you various phases of school life but we have endeavored to make our scenic and historic-section representa- tive of janesville's community life. Among the organizations which have availed themselves of the facilities which the new building offers are the Apollo Club, the MacDowell Club, the History Club, the Parent-Teachers Association, the Lions' Club, the Isaak VVal- tou League, the American Legion, and the various Agricultural Clubs. It was estimated that during the month of March about ten thousand people used the building for various purposes. The wisdom of providing the new building has been demonstrated by the rapidity with which it has become a civic center for community enterprises of every nature. A close association has grown up between school and civic or- ganizations which has made for a better understanding ofcommon problems to the mutual advantage of each. , The Editor, Iilcwzi Tfvclzfe Stop, Madison, VVis. ft e Photo A th of Courtesy Janesville of Aeroplane View 'x I !,,, A - 3 A 22125: :fi ff4s1ff?5'-1f?iH'z,w:.f4 , Z :v i .. . - . - 2,-' D 2, '- 5 ogh 1' -Lzzfif-,mg 4i ZW,x5mW MgWMWMhmgMAm4 .M hm, X South Main Street Mercy.I-Iospital Snowbound The Public Library Wisconsin School for the Blind Milwaukee Street' x Th irlcvn K, Ha I 7' ' W' 4 nn- wi was-KN XA .ssmiaq 5 14' f . ,A . . ., ,,AA, L xi f . 1 . fuk J 'W I iff W .. ., ,f 1 f f A 'Y f , 55:23 157 S.,4,.,::.:,: X ' ig 'N' Q L3T27Z2gLi'f 4 ',i?fjf3'., -L3iii3L,iQ4LTZ15Q?- 0Q27'l,.,.i 155f'Zl'f7'.,LL f ' ff fr -f ' '4 K: wwf my hmggwh. ..

In that year the high school plant was moved into the new building on High Street, which re- mained in use until Feb- ruary, 1923. In that month the first class was graduated from the splendid struc- ture on South Main Street, built at a cost of S5800,000, and said to be the most completely equipped high school in the state. .., , ell 111.1 4 P in History of Janesville 's Public Schools ' AEGQQQQSQ HE earliest settlers of Janesville pitched their camp and QR fu' erected their lirst log cabin in October, 1835, opposite the big l',..gVD rockn near the southern end of the bridge connecting Mon- M terey with the Spring Brook portion of the city. The first 1 SS? chool was t l l' l d 'n 1838 in the l ch ol h use on tl 'tvyL,,,4fQ-lej s es aJ1sie 1 I og s o v o ie Atl' 'I' property of Mr. Abram C. Bailey, on the south side of the bend of the river. The first teacher was Hiram H. Brown, who later lived in Green County. This was probably the first school opened in Rock County. if not in the entire Wisconsin portion of' the Rock River Valley. This primitive schoolhouse was of the rudest construction. Its chinked walls were of rough hevvn logs and the seats were basswood slabs. Thus at the big ford of the Rock River. within a few rods of the Big rock, from whose fiat summit Mucketay Muckekawkaik fl-Black Hawkj harangued his braves, was founded in 1838 the first educational institution in Rock County and the upper Rock River Valley. This log schoolhouse was used until 1843, when another log house was occupied by the school until the erection of the red frame schoolhouse of the joint districts of Rock and La Prairie in 1844, a .full half-mile east of the first log house. Daniel Nurse taught the school in the winter of 1841-42, and Mr. Benedict in 1842-43. Orrin Guernsey was the first teacher to wield the birch rod in the new frame building during the winter of 1843-44. Mr. Guern- sey in 1856 wrote the first history of Rock County, a work of 350 pages. pub- lished under the auspices of the Rock County Agricultural Society and Me- chanics' Institute. VVhile school matters were well under way in the Spring Brook region, the settlement near the Janes tavern and ferry also established a school. This school was opened in a log house in the woods near North Main Street three rods north of East Milwaukee Street. Miss Cornelia Sheldon later CMrs. Isaac VVoodlej taught the first term of school in the summer of 1840. She was succeeded the following winter by Rev. C. XV. Lawrence, who established the lirst debating society in 1841. Other instructors in the village school were Messrs. Little, Bennett, Arnold, VVood, and iNhite. The names of the women who taught sum- mer terms of the school are Miss VVingate, Miss True, Miss Bennett, and Mrs. Catlin. In 1845 a brick building was erected on Division Street which was regarded as a model of comfort and convenience in the early '40s and '50s. THE JANESVILLE ACADEMY Before the days of the free high school, private academies were established throughout the Middle VV est. In 1843 a charter was granted to S. Hyatt Smith, E. V. Whitoii, I. B. Doe, Charles Stevens, and VV. H. Bailey for the establish- ment of the Janesville Academy. A stone building was erected on High Street near Milwaukee Street on the site of the present Lincoln School, and in 1844 the academy was opened with Rev. Thomas DI. Ruger, an Episcopal clergyman, as principal. Many of the business men of that generation received their educa- tion at this old stone academy on High Street. Mr. Ruger was succeeded by Mr. Alden, and he by Messrs. VVoodard, Webb, Spicer, and Gorton. In the early '50s the school was known as the Janesville Collegiate Institution. It was pur- chased by the city in 1855 and became known as the Janesville Free Academy. It was used for public school purposes until 1876, when it was superseded by the present Lincoln school. i f X!

R. Pease, Dr. Lyman J. Barrows, Hon. NV. .-X. Lawrence, Hon. james Sutherland, judge M. S. Pritchard, and Hon. B. 13. lildredge. In April. 1855. the present system of schools was adopted, although it was not in practical operation until the schools were thoroughly graded in 1856. At this time a record of educational and literary institutions of the city em- braced a central high school, eight schools of lower grade, three select schools. the state institution for the blind. and the Janesville Lyceum and Mechanics' Institute, the latter society assembling for improvement in arts and sciences. SCHOOL BUILDING In 1856 commodious buildings were erected in the Second and Fifth wards, and the schools were graded into high school, grammar. intermediate, and pri- mary departments, the old academy becoming the central or high school of the system. A demand for more room secured the erection of a high school building in 1858 at a cost of 340.000, and in 1859 the high school department, with Levi Cass as principal, was transferred to its new location. An increase of population soon rendered additional accommodations neces- sary, and in 1866 and 1873 buildings were erected in the 'First and Fourth wards. In 1875 requisite appropriation was made for the Lincoln School building, which was erected on the site of the old academy, now the Jefferson School. Since then the Second ward school house has been rebuilt. new buildings have been erected in the lifth, fourth, Hrst, and third wards. and in 1895 the second new high school building, thus, year by year the school property has- increased until its valuation in 1912 was approximately estimated at 31,300,000 with accommodations for nearly 4,000 pupils, THE HIGH SCHOOL The High School proper was organized in 1856. The first class of three was graduated in 1858. Since the first commencement in the old academy build- ing, which occurred without public exercise, the school has graduated 2151 stu- dents. Of this number 787 are boys and 1364 are girls. It is interesting toi note that about thirty per cent. of the 977 graduates since 1912 have continued their learning in schools of higher education. Of the Freshmen who entered in 1919, about eighty per cent. graduated. The average has been about fifty per cent. ' In February of 1923 the school was moved to the present site on South Main Street. This new structure was erected at a cost of S800,000. It is one of the very few completely equipped high schools in this section of the country. It includes forty nine class rooms, four study halls, a music room, a lecture room, a library, five complete laboratories for experimental work in, science, two large gymnasiums and swimming pools, commodious room for the manual training and for the domestic science department, a fine locker system, a splendid cafeteria equipped to serve 450, and a spacious auditorium which ac- commodates I500. At present there are sixty-three members of the faculty and 1255 students.

Grant, Mrs. Helen Sutherland, Mrs. Alice Holmes Mr. Charles Mugglcton The success of the school year has been due in a large part to the mem- bers of the School Board. who have given so much of their time andenergy tof solution of school problems and consideration of school projects. Mrs. Helen Sutherland, who is the first woman to hold the office of president. has shown much initiative, patience, and tact in handling the duties of the oltice. Among the projects accomplished this year are the introduction of instruction in Physi- cal Education, introduction of junior High School music, organization of an Attendance Department, the appointment of Dean of Girls and Vice Principal of the High School, extension of Home lfconomics and Manual Arts courses to junior High School, the extension of playground activities, renovation of all grade buildings, and the construction of the new High School. Projects which are still under consideration are the equipment of the ath- letic lield with bleachers, and the gymnasium with electric bleachers, the ex- tension of the opportunity room idea, the provision of additional members of the school force to take care of the health needs of both grades and high school, the appointment of Physical Director to operate in grades, the creation of an .-'Xrt Department in the High School, and new grade buildings at such a time as the finances of the city will allow, and the resources of the city will permit.

HOLT Superintendent of Schools T1c'c11i,x'-two An Open Letter to the Students of the Janesville High School ', CCQZEDW HERE seems to be a general recognition of the fact that the Janes- cifgx . . . . . . . . . .. ' -,N ville High School building is an outstanding building among High V- Y li Schools of Wisconsin, possibly the outstanding one of the State. The lf-GW l Jil people of Janesville and the students ot the Janesville High School are an i ii justified in the pride they take in the truth of this fact. 4 ' '... to , S59 For one and one-half years the students who attend the Janesville Q,4,f :l, QS1 High School have had some opportunity of realizing what the tax fx? - payers of Janesville have so unselhshly provided in the wav of building cy. , X F . and equipment. lt is unquestionably true that should we at this time pause and take stock, that there is decided evidence of the fact that, in their attitude toward the building, the students have shown real appreciation of that which the tax payers have so generously provided. Not only is the building therefore to he admired, but the spirit of the student body should be recognized as a very creditable one. The question that looms large to those interested in the future of the Janesville High School is with reference to the possibility of making the Janesville High School of the future outstanding among the schools of the State, not as a building or as equipment, but from a point of view of scholastic attainment, of hue type of school spirit, of a real pro- duct in its training of men and women. A line school building and equipment does not necessarily mean a Fine school. Even a strong faculty of devoted teachers working in a splendid building may not necessarily meanan outstanding school. The Janesville High School of today is most largely what the students who attend are making it, and the Janes- ville High School of the future will very largely be determined by what the students of the Janesville High School of today are establishing as precedents for the students of the future to follow. Personally, I should like to see Janesville High School typify an attitude of mind. An attitude of mind where every student in the Janesville High School indicates his or her appreciation of the fact that in an organization every individual plays an important'-partg that the school is a better school or a poorer school because that individual pupil is among the student body. I should like to have every student realize that there is no such thing as a neutral pupil in the schoolg that every pupil either detracts from or contributes some- thing to the institution. I should like to have every group of students know that as far as the standard of the school is concerned, there is no such thing as standing stillg that the school is either going backwards or moving forward, and the problem of the student .body is to so constructively contribute to the school's welfare that it shall never go backward, lint ever forward. Service has become rather the ideal in the world at large today. The value of a man to his community or to his business is most largely determined by the desire which he ex- hibits to do something for the welfare of the larger number. The successful man today is measured not by what he accomplishes for his own individual betterment or remunera- tion, but by what he contributes in making his group or community a better and a stronger group or community.That is the type of school citizenship that I hope for the future of the Janesville High School. It is a citizenship where every individual boy or girl in the school appreciates the school as a community. It is a real-ization that the individual pupil's obligation in his own case is to make such contribution by his attitude and his effort as will enable' 'him conscientiously to feel that he is playing his part in making the Janesville High School a better school than it would have been, had he not been a member of the student body. When each one of us is imbued with this ideal the Janesville High School will be noted not so much for its building and equipment' as for the more worth while phase of a school, that is, the morale with regard to the finer things in life which the student body exhibits. My hope is that with respect to this particular interpretations of a school, the Janesville High School of the future may be increasingly outstanding among the High Schools of VVisconsin. ' F. O.

YVhat more could we ask of our athletes in basketball than dis- trict champiouships for two straight years? ln football our record has Q 5f been one to be proud of even though there are better records still before i us. In athletics, we have learned that we can produce teams with fight, perseverance, and unbounded energy. Furthermore, we know that a strong school spirit to back up such teams is a big factor. ln respect to scholastic interest we have an enthusiastic and live faculty in both the junior and Senior High School which is ever on the lookout for better and more interest- ing text books,,for more etiective methods, and plans which will make each pupil's day more xaluable and moreinteresting to him. - Many of our so-called extra-curricular activities have become so bound up with the things we regard as part of our class work that in many respects we are not aware whether the things we do are curricular or extra-curricular. as 'an example we have some two hundred and sixty boys and girls in band work:-a most interesting extra-curricular ac- tivity which at the same time is very much a part ol our curriculum. Perhaps one of the outstanding things which we have to be proud of is that we have been able to run two different schools, ditaferent in purpose and different in character, but much the same in spirit, in one building. VVC may be sure that Janesville has a model junior high school, a place for the pupils to test out manv different' kinds of work. This is done so that every boy and girl may know better than ever before, what he might carc to do for a livelihood, and for what his particular traits and abilities best lit him. In the Senior High School. curricula have been made out for those who wish to make their choice in some particular held of training. It has always been very difficult for the high school girl or boy to choose properly the things he ought to take throughout his course. These prepared curricula for senior high school students have already proved an immense aid to advisers and students in making out courses. . But probably that which has made visitors feel so keenly the fine characterjof this school has been the plan of pupil participation in many of the social situations which have arisen in our community life within this building. VVe have made, however, but a beginning in this respect, and I prophesy the time is not far distant when every member of the junior High School or the Senior High School will feel that this is our school, that what goes on here is our interest, and that what others in Janesville or in the stateimay say of us is our reputation. I have made no attempt to cover all the good points which our school possesses. These are but a few of the many things about which we should be proud. Immediately I would- like to suggest to you the old saying that pride precedeth a fall. VVhen it is the wrong kind of pride, it seems that the fall is certain. But if we feel that these beginnings we have made are good beginnings, and several reasons why we should continue striving to do bet- ter, then our pride precedes progress. VX-'e should probably take as our motto, Constant vigilance is the price of success, with the keen feeling on our part that we must succeed. VV. W. BROWN, Principal.

X'Ve did not organize until we were Freshmen Y, ov Ais. At this time we chose as our President, Jean Harveyg M for Vice President, Virginia. Howe, and for Secretary and Treasurer, Louise Hoort. Virginia Howe and Bessie Elles represented us in the Student Council. Mr. Candy was our ' - 6 adviser for the semester. In our Sophomore year we re-elected the previous officer with the exception of jean Galbraith for Secretary and Treasurer, and Doris Peterson and Arthur Mahnberg tor representatives to student council. In our junior year the presidency was shifted to Arthur Mahnberg, other- wise the officers remained the same as in our Sophomore year. lVe received class rings and pins and the style chosen was adopted by the school authorities as the standard for the school in later years. i VVe, with the Junior A's gave at this time the iirst junior Prom. This same committee also entertained the Seniors at Yost Park in june. XVhen we were Junior A's, class oificers were as following: Bessie Elles, Presidentg Arthur Malmberg, Vice President, and Jean Galbraith, Secretary and Treasurer. Miss Casper was our adviser. ' During this semester we joined with the junior B's in giving a Christmas party. After the supper the party was open to any students or teachers, about one hundred and fifty attended. Our Senior year was an eventful one not onlv because of our newly assumed dignity as Seniors but also ,of the beginning of our one year spent in the newi High School. , - At this time we chose for officers, LaVerne Cunningham, as President. Alice NVilt, as Vice President, and Robert King as Secretary and Treasurer. Miss Keesey was chosen as our adviser. - In the fall when we returned for our last semester we chose as president, Fredrick Hyslop, for our vice president,'Bessie Elles, and for secretary and treas- urer, Edith Everman and Harlan Bradford. Miss Harker was our adviser. Joe Leary, one of our members, was on the varsity eleven, also filling the position as Captain. Robert Howard, Harlan Bradford, LaVerne Cunningham and Robert King were on the squad. Arthur Malmberg was a reporter for the Blue J and Edith Everman and Frederick Hyslop were editors for the Phoenix staff. On December 14, 1923, we gave our class play, The Three Live Ghosts. It was well attended and an all around success. VVe chose as our Valedictorian, Kenneth Lowry, and as our Salutatorian, Edith Everman. Class day exercises were held on Thursday afternoon, January 24, and Com- mencement was held Friday evening, January 25.

We quickly' became accustomed to the great advancement the lirst semester. Offi- cers for the first year were selected. They were Don Flaherty. Beryl Babcock, Francis Corona, and joe Steed. The class ad- viser for the first semester was Miss Vveisinger. Nothing of accomplished the iirst year. long before we realized we were now Sophomores, and conse- o take on a more dignilied attitude as we advanced a step each officers elected were Joe Steed. James Franklin and Ruth Fisher. and entertainments were given. The class officers received due SUCCCSS. W'hen we became uniors there was room for more work, not only alonfr . 6 social lines, but in the organization of clubs, etc., because of the splendid oppor- tunities the new High School afforded. A score of decidedly successful activi- ties were sponsored by us, as juniors. One of which was the animal l,l'OIll, and numerous parties. VVe had a special task in producing the Shakespearean play. 'Midsummer Night's Dream. Many of our class members were especially interested in athletics. Charles Knipp, Goldwin Hallet. Carlos Palmer, Ed. Clark, Dick C01 The second idon, and Tom Doran were of premier quality. which Carlos Palmer established in athletics in our Senior year, when he was captain of the basketball team will long be remembered. In 1924, we elected as o Fficers, Swen Sorenson, Carlos Palmer, and Ruth Jensen, while lMiss Kroft was chosen as class adviser. The most noteworthy accomplishment during our last semester was the giving of the Senior A class play, The Charm School. The cast containing about fifteen ch The Senior aracters.

VVe did not elect class officers until we were Freshmen and at that time we chose for President, John Mathe- song for V ice-President. Lucille Craftg for Secretary and Treas- urer, Robert Brown. VVe held a decidedly successful class party that semester. In our Sophomore year we elected Conrad Kneip for Presi- dentg Norma Loofboro, Vice President, and Milo Meyer as Secretary and Treas- ure'r. That semester we held a class party in the form of a Masquerade Ball. XVe had for guests members of the faculty. The party was considered one of the best of the season. Wfhen we moved into the new building, we felt that we could now accom- plish more and were extremely proud of the opportunity afforded us. As class officers for the junior year we chose Milo Meyer, Presidentg Ken- neth McMinn, Vice President, and Viola Carpenter, Secretary and Treasurer. XVe, with the Junior A's, sponsored the customary junior Prom. The success of this affair can be attributed to the work of Miss Harker and Miss VVeisinger. class advisers. The music was furnished by joe Kayser's famous orchestra. This year Charles Lamb and Kenneth McMinn made the football squads. Clarence Shaw and Xlfilliam Hendrickson made the track squad, and went to the llfhitewater meet. John Matheson won the Beloit College High School oration contest, defeating our rival, Beloit. For the next semester, Milo Meyer was elected President, Kenneth McMinn, Vice President, Viola Carpenter, Secretary, and Harold Pederson, Treasurer,. This semester another successful class party was held. Kenneth McMinn won a letter for football work. VV e organized an advisory group basketball team this semester. The class officers for the first semester of the Senior year are Milo Meyer, President, Clarence Shaw, Vice Presidentg Esther Curler, Secretary, and VVauni- ta Hain, Treasurer. Wle hope that some day we may be able to look on our class history, scan over the days of our high school career and be proud of our class and the work it has done. CLASS HISTORIAN.

Nancy Muggleton: Do you remember that September morning in 1921, when one hundred and forty-one boys and girls entered the doors of the Old High School? XN'eren't we green and timid though? XVe soon discovered that the Freshman were not respected as we had thought. I don't remember who all of the class officers were, do you jerry? - Geraldine Crawford: Ruth Austin was president, you were vice president, Dorothy Grubb was treasurer, and Arthur Hanrahan was secretary. W'e had one- Ruth Austin: Oh yes! Do you remember our first party? It was on Thanksgiving Eve, and Miss Drew, our adviser, helped us. That was the only social event that we had while we were 9B's. Dorothy Jensen: Don't forget that in February we passed down some of our Hgreenness to the incoming Freshman B's. XN'e had new officers then. Ti was- Geraldine Crawford: Yes, you were president, Elinor Bell was vice presi- dent, Barney Bick was treasurer, and I was secretary. XfVe had a costume party that semester, but that was all we did along the social line. Dorothy Decker: XVasn't that the year they put out the Phoenix? Wfe had several people from our class working on that. Oh yes, and that was the year we had the paper called the 'fZip. The upper classmen said they did all of the work, but we had some reporters. Let's hear about our Sophomore year. Vernon Barber: XVe were known as Sophisticated Sophomores. a verv pleasing name. VVe had- Thomas Hooper: W'hat does sophisticated mean? Vernon Barber: Oh, that means that we thought we were very wise and knew everything. W'ell, as I was saying when Tom interrupted, we again elect- S1'.1'ty-.rctfm wet' F -iii.--P . . . ed class officers. Arthur Hanrahan was president: George Huggins, vice-presi- dent: Barney Bick, treasurer. and I was secretary. Quentin Bick: Come now, you've told enough. Let me have a chance. XVe had several representatives on the football and basketball teams. Miss Pickerell, our adviser, helped us with a party. That is about all that we did that semester. I'll let somebody else tell about the second semester. Robert Drew: XVhen we moved into the new school, a junior and Senior high were organized, and of course that made ns one of the youngest classes in Senior high. Marion Kauffman: Do you remember that we took the stunt prize at the Senior High St. Pat1'ick's party? Ruth Clark: Oh yes, and we must not forget that Phyllis Luchsinger took first place in the Declamatory Contest with Beloit. George Huggins: Wlho were our class officers then? lVasn't Robert Drew, president: Ruth Viney, vice president: Par- Phyllis Luchsinger: Parker Putnam, treasurer: and Geraldine Crawford, secretary. Mildred Townsend: Do you know what we are called now that we are juniors? I just found out the other day. We are known as the Flighty Juni iors. At Hallowe'en the Seniors gave that pa.rty and tried to scare us, but they did not succeed. We took the stunt prize at the Senior High Christmas party, too. Wle had several people from our class on the football team, and now have some on the basketball team. There are also people working on the Phoenix and Blue-J. Our officers were- Marion Kauffman: Oh, Mildred, don't tell everything. Let someone else have a chance. Our officers were George Huggins, president: Bill Austin, vice president: Phyllis Luchsinger, treasurer: and Mildred Townsend, secretary. Now that Phyllis is president this semester, let's have her tell us what she ex- pects the class to do. QEveryone clapsj Phyllis Luchsinger: One thing we must do is to show our class spirit by coming to all the meetings. Of course we have a lot to do, and it will be hard work, as we have to give the Prom, and the junior-Senior picnic. Wfith the support of the class, with Miss Mandel's help, and with our other class officers, who are Birrell Xvalsh, vice president: George Huggins, secretary: and Robert Drew, treasurer, we ought to make these things a success. Can't someone else tell about our representatives in various activities? - Nancy Muggleton: Wie have several people on the debating team, and some entered in the Declamatory Contest. I don't think many of you know that Miss Mandel's group of 11A girls, from E to L, got the 10011 Thrift cup for last semester. I think that's all that we have done so far. Everyone shouts: Hurray for the Flighty juniors, but just wait untili we get to be the mighty Seniors. V ELEANOR VVEAV ER.

Should curiosity prompt you, it would be a mat- ter of but a few moments to gather convincing proof that our class of ninety-tive members numbered ninety-five geniuses. - XX-le organized on November 9th, and the class chose Marlin Baker for presi- dentg .lean Sutherland as vice president, and Stella Babcock as secretary-treas- urer. 1 Time flew. Semester followed semester, and soon we were Sophomores. On Varsity football team we had VValter Nightingale and Hjake' Stearns. XVal- ter Nightingale represented us also in basketball, and Harold Millenwent out for track. In our pre-eminence as Sophomore A's, we looked down upon the SA's and Freshman, now so far beneath us. At our Sophomore A class meeting, we elected john Sheldon for president, and Dale VValters as vice president. Miss jenkins accepted the invitation to become our class adviser. This brief history cannot begin to enumerate all of our achievements, but' what we have done as Freshmen and Sophomores we hope to excel one-hundred fold as juniors and Seniors. h May we succeed! i CLASS HISTORIAN.

For the 9B and 9A years, our officers were as follows: Betty Haumerson, presidentg Margaret Cutts, vice pigesidentg Wfillis Hubbard, secretary 5 and Frank Fischer, treasurer.

Our first class meeting was held early in November and we elected Richard Sutherland our President, with Edward Freese, Secretary and Treasurer. Mr. VVharfield was unanimously elected class adviser, and thus we started our high school career. Plans started to have a party with the 9B's, but were never carried out. We entered the new High School as 9'sg we held a class meeting in February, and Ruth Clark was elected our worthy president, with Eleanora Sundhorn carrying off the honors of secretary and treasurer. On account of the change in classes and schools Mr. VVharlield resigned after a very successful year on his part. Miss Kuehn was elected to be his suc- cessor. At the meeting. plans were started for a class picnic which was given at the sum- mer cottage of our president on Rock River. Late in December of '23, we held our first class meeting at 9A's. Miss Kuehn was re- elected and Neva Gestland was elected president. Another meeting was held a week later and we chose red and white for class colors. It was decided to wait until 1924 to have a party. ' ANN PALMER. Severity-sctfcir , ' mm' a-wake 2 be 5? C by , l. -. ,, ,.,.- we 5 -:ew su 4: f., 1-- if f PM s, w::fw,- 'gy ' E - 5522- A .es szfwrf.

In the dining room he wearily sank into a chair while his housekeeper served him lunch. He was thoroughly tired. For the past few weeks he had been working in his laboratory with almost no rest. He had entirely withdrawn from society and his friends were wondering what had become of him. Edgar Allen Finished his repast and sighed wearily. He had been working hard-very hard. But now he had what he was searching for grasp. In a short time he would have it. And then--his name would be famousg he would be known internationally as the man who had discovered the most deadly gas in the world. Other poisonous gases there were. but none of them could be carried so easily, or so compactly, and none of them could begin to accomplish the de- struction that this one would. His name would be classed with renowned scientists- Lavosier, Avogadro, Inoulin. Wealth would be his. He could afford to buy materials he had long been wishing for with which to experiment further. Honor and renown would be his. Scientists the world over would bow to his opinions. Oh, it would be wonderful -wonderful ! He leaned back in his chair, his unseeing eyes turned toward the window. The view was lovely. On one side lay an Indian lake-silver and still, which mirrored the blue clouds above. On the other side, the buildings of the university campus could be seen, and still farther on, rose the marble dome of the capital building. A gayly decorated car passed beneath the window. The chemist awoke from his reverie. Is today-why today must be Saturday. The Michigan football game is on today. I believe I'll go. I'm tired and perhaps it will do me good. A short time later Allen entered the stadium and took his seat with the stousands of cheering, excited humanity. At first he looked at the hilarious students in amused con- tempt, but soon, in the excitement of getting the first touchdown he became as enthusi- astic as the rest. It was at the end of the first half that he noticed the man sitting next to him. He was unusual looking. He was shabbily dressed and his shoes were seuffed and cracked. He wore smoked glasses and his old-young face seemed to be prematurely lined. Allen glanced at him casually at first. then looked again, as something about him seemed familiar. The stranger turned toward him That was a wonderful punt. What? Certainly was-but haven't I seen you before? My name's Arkwrightf' Arkwright-Ark-not Arkwright of '17--the half-hack? A twisted smile came upon the face of the other. The same-although you'd hardly know it now. Allen looked at him bewildered. It seemed impossible to connect the popular, handsome college athlete with this shabby wreck. Arkwright had made a record both in athletics and scholarship. He had especially shown promise of doing great things in science. Eiglzty-eight jfs-MWNMM g .RJ I f 4,,,.m..,.,, hip? H ' tiki .dfg-A-.553 ff-woe -yyaaws' .sew .-1.-.. .Q,.-W: ,- V.

Did you come back and graduate? Graduate! the other repeated bitterly, I was shell-shocked in the battle of the Marne. I had partially recovered when I was allowed to return to the front. I was gassed at Chateau-Thierry. Somehow, it affected my optic nerves and I was in the hospital for a year having operations and one thing and another to keep from losing my sight. A paroxysm of coughing shook him. When he recovered he said, Yes-my lungs are in bad shape from the gas. And then I came home. he con- tinued, I came back here intending to Finish up my year and graduate. I tried, but my eyes wouldn't stand it and my nerves were pretty well shot to pieces. So I had to drop it. I tried work of one kind and another but my lungs wouldn't permit me to do,physical labor, nor my eyes, clerical work. And so my ambitions have been destroyed. My air castles have tumbled about my ears. I intended to make a name for myself in the world through science. Science-and it's science that has ruined me. Oh, the irony of it! But I'm no worse off than hundreds of other men. I saw terrible cases while I was in the hospital. Those horrible gases-and do you know there are men who are experi- menting to find even more deadly ones? He turned and faced the chemist squarely His eyes were blazing with almost an in- sane anger. Are they human that they would voluntarily cause that amount of suffering? I hope- I hope that some day' they may be repaid for their work. Allen sat through the rest of the game in a daze. When the whistle blew announcing the end, pandemonium broke loose. He heard the wild cheering all about him. He knew that his alma mater had won. But it seemed to strikeno enthusiasm in him. He pushed through the dense crowd, past the gate, and turned into a quiet street. He finally reached home and unlocking the door. once more entered the laboratory. Through the window could be seen the blue waters of the lake-tranquil and with hardly a ripple. But the spirit of the man in the room did not reflect it's peacefulness. He pulled a chair over to the window, and sank into it lost in 'troubled meditation. After Arkwr1ht's conversation, he did not see how he could go on with his work. He had never before looked at it in that light. But now he saw clearly the suffering it might cause if he completed the gas and turned it over to the government. Yet, how' could he give up his chance for fame? Could he destroy his dreams when they were al- most realized? That was too much to expect of anyone. Still-visions of human wrecks like Arkwright passed before him. Surely he could never respect himself again if he put that horrible gas into the world? And after all is not self respect worth more than fame or wealth? A long time he sat there, then at last he rose, and squaring his shoulders, walked over to his desk. Unlocking a drawer he took out the formula of the gas. He hesitated but a moment, then tore it into countless scraps. He walked to the window. The sun was setting over the lake. The whole western sky was a mass of rose and gold, which re- flected in the mirror beneath. A lavendar cloud floated across the sky. The man at the window turned from the glory without, to the common-place laboratory. He would not give up his scientihc work, but he would continue it along lines that would benefit humanity. Again he viewed the lake. The last golden glow of sunset faded awayg he faced the morrow filled with the joy that the determination of true service gives. GERALDINE CRAWFORD.

We are anvays vtil ing to absorb any 1n.orma- ,F Xl tion otla war-like nature concerning Japan. VVhether it is the truth or not IS of little importance. ' ' In some instances our actions toward japan have been very shame- ful. ln 1908 Captain K. P. Hobson delivered in Hartford, one of his addresses by which, for years, he has been endeavoring to stir up the suspicion and animosity of our people against Japan, by stating that thousands of the Japanese are working night and day to turn out arms and to prepare otherwise for swooping down upon the United States, or its possessions in the Pacihc. The japanese are taught by their government, he says, to hate Americans and they are only waiting an opportunity to declare war. This wild alarm he and others like him are constantly sounding by wav of urging the nation into the sup- port of its insane navy program. Captain Hobson also claims that japan has had the war habit for more than eight hundred years. It is, with her, a question of heredity. It is inevitable that. as the Japan- ese emerge from wars of their own. they engage in wars with other countries. Japan uses, according to Captain Hobson, the science and knowledge of the world chiefly for war. In 1914 Captain Hobson became so bold as to deliver an address before the House Committee on naval affairs in which he stated that in May, 1913, the American troops in the Philippines were actually concentrated on Corregedor Island to check a japanese landing party. If you believe Hobson's statements concerning Japan's war habit, or if there is any doubt in your mind, let me refer you to Dr. John De Forest, whose almost whole lifetime of service in japan has given him an understanding of American and Japanese relations better than that possessed by almost 'any other living man. Dr. De Forest claims that for two hundred and fifty years before Commodor Perry's visit there was not a more peaceful nation on earth. YVhile Europe and America were in the midst of long years of bitter wars, revolutions, and slaughter, there were for two hundred and fifty years neither internal nor external disturbances in the Empire of Japan. Probably you did not know that when Perry opened Japan to the knowledge of West- ern history the one thing that shocked the Japanese most was the bloody histories of the nations on this side of the globe. In fact one,of the great moralists of the time, Yokoi Shonan, begged that he be sent on a mission to the West, that he might plead with those iiagonscto fut an end to ttlliie grutil avars which, after two hundred and fifty years of peace, ia ma e apan pro oun y isli e . ' 'N Would you, according to this, say that Japan has the war spirit? Wouldn't it seem that instead inf accusing Lhexg of?having the war spirit we might learn something from the most peace u nation in t e ast. It is true that during the World War, Japan followed the lead of other nations in the race for naval armament, and for a short period they fell under the spell of the German idea of militarism and efficiency. But the Japanese have no confidence in militarism as ahmedium gf exbpansiioirl T? this day tlaey cannot figure out why it was that Germany lost t e war, w en y a ca cu ation, she s ould iave won. ,, Referring to the charges repeatedly made that Japan is trying to bring on the war with America at the earliest possible moment, providing she can get a pretext for begin- ning the ight let me say that contrary to general opinion in this country, the japanese are not seriously counting on emigration for the solution of their problem of over-population. They are not good colonizers, and they lack the pioneer spirit. They cannot be induced to emigrate to countries where the climate is not similar to their owng and even when they do, they are always looking forward, like the Latin races to earning enough money to go back and spend the remainder of their lives in Nippon.

Japan could easily have found excuses for declaring war if she so desired.. You will remember that in 1913 the state of California passed the Bradford Bill prohibiting Japan- ese from holding land in California. Again in San Francisco japanese children were kept out of the public schools. The children of residents who were citizens of all other foreign countries were freely admitted, but the children of Japanese residing in the United States were denied this privilege. The United States and lapan have had several controversies over immigration. Surely if japan so desired, she could easily have found some excuse for declaring warg but in- stead of this relations have remained friendly. r Viscount Aoki said, War with America is impossible. lf immigration tends to make an unfavorable economic situation or arouse race prejudice. then we will stop our laborers ttom coming to America. The good will and friendship of the great republic is not to be imperiled for the sake of a few immigrants. Undoubtedly Japan feels hurt over the determination to exclude her laborers: while those of other nations are freely allowed to come. It is like a blow from a friend. But again and again during the recent misunder- standings Japan's great statesmen, warriors, and her newspapers have expressed deep re- gard and gratitude .for what America has done for her. You can be sure she will never raise a finger against us unless we became so unrighteous as openly to insult her, throw away her valuable friendship, and aggressivelv arouse her war spirit. Our antagonism toward Japan is wholly unworthy of a Christian nation. For the sake of Japan, whose spirit I believe will bring generous help to the world in the peaceful' solution of one of the great twentieth century problems, we should strive for the coming together of the East and the West. Any statements concerning the war habit of the lapanese, and their war designs upon. our Republic, have no better foundation than that furnished by ignorance of history and of diplomatic relations between governments. XVe should declare our confidence by ad- hering loyally to the unwritten alliance which has bound the two nations together for half a century and to reciprocate Japan's expressions desirous of abiding peace. VVe should protest at every opportunity against the wide-spread and systematic efforts that have been made by newspapers and individuals to ferment distrust and enmity between two friendly nations, and to brand as malicious and unwarrantable all the statements which have tended to throw suspicion upon the integrity of the governments of both our own nation and upon japan. - The relations between the two nations have always been friendly, and there is every reason to believe that they will continue to be friendly. VVe must not forget, however, that there are people in the United States who make it their business to start now and then an anti-japanese campaign through the press and on the platform. Their object is not always to embroil the two countries in war, but to create a situation which may promote the furtherance of a scheme of military and naval increase. Whatever may be the cause it is a deplorable fact that the otherwise perfectly placed waters of political relations between the two nations are periodically threatened by a mis- chievous attempt at disturbance. These despicable attempts ought never to succeed, and I am sure that they never will succeed. But all the same, they constitute a danger which all lovers of peace and good will between the two people should not ignore, for there are ignorant people in all countries who may easily be misled. SWEN SORENSON. Nmrly-0110 . , - , An Unconscious Actor of the World First Prize Essay l-IE whole world is but a stage and every man upon this earth 'ij is but an actor. is the interesting thought that XV1lhan1.Shake- YJSXPJ speare gave to us through his pleasing play, As You Like It. M 'rig Let us follow one unconscious actor of the world. I - - Though the man could not have put the paths of his life ' into definite words he semi-consciously realized what the paths ' - A he was following might be called. As a lad he started upon the path which may be called The Fascination of Curiosity. As he came in contact more and more with nature the question why was always being asked. Mother, why can't you see the wind or, XVhy do fiowers fade? After a scramble in the woods from picking berries the question arose. VVhv do these bushes have thorns?l' One W'liy?,' arose before the former one has been an- swered. Because he was a keen and alert little fellow the question NVhy? was the most familiar to him. As his life expanded the path of curiosity did like- wise. The antonym for curiosity is satisfaction. He satisfied his curiosity by observation, reflection, comparison, analysis, comprehension, and lastly, judg- ment. He could not have told when or where it happened but he knew that his goal was The Kingdom of Knowledge. 'Tho his ambitions were strong and his determination was of the best, the way was long and the paths were narrow besides being filled with many obstacles to make it seem at time as if the way was not passable. , One of the hrst obstacles that encountered the unconscious actor of the world was called Indifiference. Many times voices within him would hold a long and heated debate Shall I? or Shall I not? the man would ask. One voice would reply, It is not worth the trouble. Another voice would quietly but firmly reply, It is worth the trouble. This struggle began for the man. This quotation involuntarily staid in his mind, Build straight, O worthy Master, Staunch and strong a goodly vessel, That shall laugh at all disaster And with wave and whirlwind wrestle. His better voice became victorious, making him a better all around man and giving him a firmer foundation for the more difficult obstacles that were laid in his path. All had been well seemingly, but suddenly the man realized that he was standing on the banks of The River of Doubt. The man told himself that he could not go backwards. Wfhich was it, Sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish. He decided to swim. Because of his determination for victory, victory came to him. Ninety-two . ll T . , . Now he could see as he never before had seen what his goal would mean to him. I-le was steadfastly gaining the great entrance to The Kingdom of Knowledge and he could dimly see the rising of the rays of the glorious sun. There were still by-paths on this long journey for one of the infinite actors of the world. Nearer and nearer a vision was coming to himg at first it was not distinguishable but presently it became visible and before the man stood The Temple of Ease. Then came a short conflict between the two voices. 'The Temple of Ease' is what you seek, Oh Self. The quiet but firm voice replied, I am your better judgment. You seek 'The Kingdom of Knowledge' Has 'The Temple of Ease' a Brotherhood? Oh no! No one but Self The man turned away from the tempting by-path and continued upon his chosen way no matter how difficult it might be. The night was dark and he was alone excepting for the one guiding Hand which gave him assurance and faith. Now he was treading a straight path where only the survival of the fittest are found and before him stood the triumphant gate. The rising sun greeted him as a symbol meaning that all was Dawn. There was no night to bring darkness. The man had reached his goal that few of the actors of the world ever reach. Perhaps you will say his opportunities were better. There is no unfair- ness. Each and all start on a level basis and have, perhaps not the same oppor- tunities, but an opportunity that comes to one and all. Some accept this op- portunity, but the failures of life are the ones who have turned it away' and in all probability opportunity will return no more. The actors of thefworld are infinite and likewise they are varied., . Shall we all as actors of the world try to perfect ourselves and reach towards'the great goal called The Kingdom of Knowledge?

' A The Cabinet is composed of representatives selected from each of the ad- visory groups. The duties of the members are many and varied-different com- mittees were formed and have accomplished much to benefit the school as a whole. Among the most active committees were the Cafeteria, Assembly, Mu- sic, and Information. The quiet hour committee had much to do in bettering the conditions in the school. Specific rules were adopted regarding the Cafe- terias, and definite provisions were made concerning tire drills. At present numerous plans are being made in connection with the exposition which will be held May 1 and 2. The Students of the Cabinet will have an ac- tive part in this project. The new idea of having students decide what they would like to see carried out in the school has proved satisfactory. They not only had part in planning but also in enforcing and carrying them out. Much has been possible by the constant aid of the teachers. N1'11vty-Em: 'f 4. nal, 5191 rx .+ ' j b 1, at f N, ,,. y. 4 , - , . X ., .,.... g1'2'f'1:f'7'C'Wi . A E I gi 4 gh' 'M hp 3 .I iv .

' The Girl Reserves As Girl Reserves, we aim to promote a spirit of simple friendliness and co-operation in our High School and Communityg to help every girl to live an abundant life that she may be a Christian citizen of the world. VVe selected our name in honor of Grane Dodge, who was president of the National? Board of the Young l1Vomen's Christian Association in its infancy, and who did much to promote work among girls and women. lNe had a share in drawing up the purpose of Senior High School Girl Reserves. We have used the same program as nearly as possible but since we meet at noon, we have had to adopt a program to our needs. We welcome any girl who Ends it more convenient to meet at noon than after school. The Senior High Girl Reserves opened activities this year with a reunion of old mem- bers. Then followed a welcome and initiation of new members and a faculty tea. NVe be- gan working for rings immediately, because the winning of a ring forms an important part of our club, and our meetings have discussions centered in the essentials of this task. Perhaps the most important activity during the Grst semester was the presentation of three one-act plays: Two Slatterns and a King. Between the Soup and the Savoury, and The Maker of Dreams. The casts were coached by Mrs. Wayne A. Munn, and the plays were given in the auditorium on November 16. Q Early in November Christmas boxes were packed and sent to Europe. In December we filled stockings and gave a Santa Claus party to a number of poor children in the city. The end of the week of exams in january was celebrated by a bob ride with a supper and a good time at the Y. XV. C. A. This was the last time that Beulah Ransom, Bessie Elles, and Esther Demerow were with us as Senior High Girl Reserves. On February 22, 23, 24, the lfVisconsin State Girl Reserve Conference was held in lanes- ville. Every club girl had an important part in this undertaking and devoted her time and energy in making it the splendid success that it was. Other activities of this second semester were Book Review Parties, Lenten Bible Class, April Fools' Banquet for Fathers and an Easter Vesper Service. To complete the year's program we will have a Senior Farewell and a Ring Luncheon. We have had a busier schedule this year than any previous ,year. Beside having a great deal of fun and forming true friendships every girl has worked hard and it is hoped that at the Ring Luncheon in the latter part of june, many will be rewarded by receiving that symbol of sincerity and all around good sportsmanship, the Girl Reserve Ring. CHARLOTTE CLARK, GERALDINE CRAVVFO RD. Nilirlgi-s1'.r 'N Hi- Y Club 4 The Hi-Y Club was organized in 1920, and has progressed rapidly under the leadership of Mr. Preston. XVe are very sorry that Pres had to leave us. The officers for the first semester of this year were: President, Alfred Glancyg Vice President, Fred Hyslopg Secretary, Albert Bell: Treasurer, Her- man Eickmeir. For the second semester the club elected the following: Albert Bell. President: Herman Eickmeier, Vice Presidentg Erwin Seneff, Secretaryg ,Emmet Boos, Treasurer: Harold Pederson, Sergeant-at-arms. The club meets every XN'ednesday night. During the semester the Hi-Y usually takes charge of the book exchange and sponsors a few social affairs. One of the most important features of the weekly program is the round table discussion at which the members frankly discuss their problems.. N1'11c1y-.wrwz f if im.

It now has a membership of more than eighty students. Miss Howard and Miss Vik are advisers of the club. At the first meeting held in the fall, the following officers were elected: President. Ellis Jensen: Vice President, Don Flaherty, and Secretary-Treas urer. Harry NVollin. VVe found it ditficult at nrst to obtain suitable officers as so many of the students held other major offices. The club had a very success- ful semester under the guiding hand of Ellis jensen. Heserved the office faith- fully, and his work was greatly appreciated by the club membens. At the beginning of the second semester, officers were again elected: Presi- dent. Ruth Vineyg Vice President, Parker Putnamg Secretary, Marie Hanauska, and Treasurer, Harry Wiollin. The Latin Club meets semi-monthly, on Friday afternoon. A program is usually given. These programs which prove very interesting, consist of talks, music, conundrums, charades, and the singing of Latin songs. The club has given some special programs: Mr. Louis Makool, gave two very interesting talks on Syriag Jessie Vineer' and others have given some splendid musical num- bers, and the Latin classes have given Latin pplays. A The Latin Club sponsored a motion picture. The Last Days of Pompeii. It was an unusually successful undertaking. and 331.00 was cleared. The club engaged Mr. Alonzo Pond, for March 5. I-le spoke on Seeing Europe on American Nerve. The lecture was held open to anyone who xvshed to come. Those who came found the lecture to be very interesting. Mr. Pond, who is an archaeologist. stressed mostly. the points of archaeological interest. This proved to be another very successful undertaking. The Latin Club expects to close the year with a Roman banquet or a picnic. RUTH V. VINEY. N1'lltl,X'-Gliglif f ., ., is 37 . , , , S . French Club In September the students of several of the French classes became very en- thusiastic about organizing a club. A meeting of these classes was held and they selected as their president. Ethel Rice. At the meetings which were held every two weeks very interesting programs took place. Regular French plays were dramatizedg songs, both classical and popular were sung in French. An- other interesting accomplishment of the club is the learning of noted French charactersg in this study the customs and characteristics of the French people were also studied. The members of the club are now carrying on correspondence with French peopleg the letters sent and received are proving to be of decided interest. By this method the French students are becoming more Huent in their use of the language. It is the one wish of the club that new members be constantly added, keeping up and promoting the interests of French among the people in the school.

The officers for the first year were: Adel- heicl Fuchs. Presidentg Florence Connell, Vice President, and Edana Connors. Secretary and Treasurer. The number of members the hrst year was about sixteen. The second year the number increased to twenty. The officers were as follows: Edana Connors, Presidentg Phyllis Luchsinger, Vice President, and Geraldine Crawford. Secretary and Treasurer. The meetings were held the second and fourth Mondays of every month at four o'clock. Two plays by Margaret Cameron were put on during the year for Assembly programs.

A Swimming Club was organized, called the Porpoise Club. Cora Lee Beers was elected Manager. There are no other officers. Miss Wlest is the Club Adviser. To join the Swimming Club one must First earn ZOO points. These are won in different ways. In the swimming classes one can win points by learning new strokes and dives and learning Life Saving, etc. The Club is now taking up Life Saving. Each class has a team. In the Spring, teams composed of six girls are to be chosen from each class. and a swimming meet held. Swimming' is very popular, and all the swimming classes are full. 0110 H zmdrcd One V ,,s,,.f.-iw . , v-amz .-4 swf? mwgmmmfzmiwg W W- ! 7 1 X , I ' gf iff IE 'f W A ' 1- N d3QW?A':w,.

The next week we held our first business meeting, at which the following officers were elected: President, Vir- ginia Ellerg Vice President, Louise Hoortg Secretary, Helen Riley, Treasurer, joe Steed, Blue-.I Reporter, Marjorie Hooper, and Sergeant-at-Arins, Robert Schmidley. Our club has two meetings every month, one social. and one businessg at the latter we have a business man speak to us on l'Business Principlesf' NVe sincerely hope the Commercial Club of the future will be the success that we are now trying to make of the present one with Miss Frances Meisner as our club adviser.

The members were greatly handicapped by the fact that the first semester of study was in a cold, dark attic. There were holes in the Hoor and the ventilation was minus. lt's iirst public appearance was for the Knights of Columbus, about two months after the band had organized. The evening was very cold and the instruments froze in a few minutes. The popularity of the band spread, and before many months it had played for nearly every important organization in the city. The quality of the music was not the cause of its popularity but the members were greatly encouraged by the line support given them by the citizens of janesville. I In the fall, the band played at the band contest at Edgerton. It won second place, the first going to NVhitewater. On February 22, they were asked to plav at the Little Interna- tional Stock Show held at Madison. They consented to go, but the band had to be uni- formed. so hfty members of the band were measured for uniforms. The band had earned about eight hundred dollars through gifts from organizations for whom they had played. The cost of tlze uniforms was paid through this fund and by the members who received uniforms. Wearing their uniforms for the First time, they went to Madison and were received there by the Madison Kiwanis Club. They marched around the Capitol Square, and then out to the Stock Pavilion, where they played for about an hour. In the evening the band played a selection for every event that took place. Several of their pieces were broadcast through the University broadcasting station. ln return for the service the band had ren- dered, it received a large bronze shield which is now in the trophy case. In all, the band has appeared before the public about forty times. The long list of en- gagements bespeaks the popularity the band has been accorded by the citizens of the city, One Hundred lfivc A 1 in L-ll. Girls' Band W'hen the school band was first organized only a very few girls joined. Be- cause of rapid progress. more girls became enthusiastic and the band soon in- creased its membership. ' After the band was organized as a separate phase from the general organi- zation, leaders were selected. The interesting fact about the Girls' Band is that it was secretly organized. ' The Senior Assembly were surely amazed upon hearing that the Girls' Band was to play. No one had suspected that such an organization existed. As the curtains were drawn there were the girls all in purple and gold uniforms. The girls' efforts were not only surprising, but pleasing as well, as they played several selections very skillfully. Since the first appearance, it has taken in many new members, increasing the present enrollment to approximately sixty members. The girls are continuing practices as well as taking in new members, and at present it promises to be an advanced band by next semester.

The Orchestra The small orchestra which was in existence in the old high school was discontinued in the years of 1922 and 1923 because almost all the members had left school. A new orchestra was not organized because there seemed to be no material for it. In the meantime, however, the public school violin classes became far enough advanced so that some of their members could play in a beginners' orchestra. As there now were a number of wood-wind and bass instrument players in the school. due to the organization of the band, Miss Hanson announced orchestra try-outs for all those interested, last October. Almost forty people tried out, but in order to have a well balanced orchestra and one in which the players would be evenlymatched, twenty-one members were taken. This new organization immediately began hard work, and soon made several public appearances, both in the assemblies and at other programs. It played at the Christmas Festival given by the junior High School, at the Class Day Exercises in january, and at the concert given by all the public schools in March. It expects to make at least three or four more public appearances this spring. This organization has certainly made remarkable progressg it is interesting to natice that at each appearance the members seem to have a little more confidence and assurance than they had had the preceding time, and that their ensemble playing is improving right along. The orchestra is very fortunate in consisting mostly of under-class students, for the reason that most of the members will be in school several years more. This fact points ahead to a very splendid and strong orchestra for the future. One Hmzdrcd SC'Z'6'lL f - :Pi Girls ' Glee Club The Girls' Glee Club is one of the oldest organizations in the school, but it was not until this year that the membership was limited. Dnriii the first semester it was limited to thirty members, but at the beginning of the second semester so much good material pre- sented itself that the Club extended its membership to fortv girls. All candidates for membership must attend the Glee Club try-outs which are held at the beginning of the semester. Here the girls are tested in regard to their voice quality and range, sight reading ability, ear training, and ability to carry a part other than the soprano. The girls who are not taken into the Club are put on a waiting list from which new mein- bers are taken in case any of the old ones have been absent twice. Two absences auto- matically drop a girl from the Club and admit a new candidate in her place. This rule has done a good deal to raise the standards of the Club and has worked very successfully. The waiting list has been almost three times as large as the number of vacancies to be filled, and therefore Miss Hanson, the director of the club, has been able to select only the very best talent. The Girls' Glee Club has accomplished more this year than ever before. Firstly, it has gone back to three part songs which for several years it was unable to sing. as the girls had all they could do in learning to sing the two part songs. Secondly, tl1e girls sing some of their songs unaccompanied, and pride themselves on the fact that they sing them without Hatting. Thirdly, the Club has made more public appearances than ever before, and an invitation to come again has always been assured it bv its enthusiastic and appreciative audiences. The Club sang for the Better Community Convention, Commencement Exer- cises in january, at the Gazette Recreation Meeting. at the big Music Festival given by all the public schools, furnished the music at the Baccalaureate Service in january, at the Girl Reserve Service at the Congregational Church, and at a meeting of the Kiwanis Club. They helped in the Music Memory Contest by singing several of its numbers at different occasions. One social activity, a party held in the music room followed by a dinner in the practice dining room, was enjoyed by all present and proved a success. The girls are planning on entering the High School Music Contest in Madison, in May, and will sing at Commencement Exercises in june. This closes their school year and we hope that next year they will meet with equal success. First semester officers were: President, Ruth Clark: Secretary-Treasurer, Gertrude Baileyg Librarian, Gladys Miller. Second semester officers were President, Gladys Millerg Secretary-Treasurer, Frances Coronag Librarian, Alice Schultz. Om' Ilundrcd lfiglil '-2 ' '12, 1 x '42 1 .1 - ,, -iff , -' :- ' X52 1 V -.

For this reason a double quartette was organized. which soon became popular with the school and other organizations outside of school. 'The Double Quartette sang at the Better Community Convention, at the Commencement Exercises in january, and gave a program at the Rotary Club luncheon, besides singing in the High School Assemblies. It always met. with great applause, and the only regret of the boys was that they did not have a repertoire large enough so that they could sing a number of encores each time. At the beginning of the second semester the Double Quartette expanded, took in more members, and after several try-outs a Glee Club of nineteen mem- bers was formed. This new organization immediately set out to do hard work, practiced several times a week, and sang several numbers at the Music Festival held by all the pupils of the public schools. The boys expect to put on several assembly programs this spring, as well as sing at the Commencement Exercises in June. t The Janesville High School is proud to have a good Boys' Glee Club now. and hopes that the interest in it will continue to increase so that the membership may grow to about thirty or forty members in order that it may be truly repre- sentative of a'scl1ool of our size.

By the standards of this code, printed on page 112, the student body has tried to measure representative members of its personnel. The pictures of those students, who, by reason of high personal ideals combined with ability to lead and serve, seemed, in the opinion of their mates, to most nearly meet the requisites of the code, appear on the following pages. The fact that these in- dividuals were chosen as representative however, does not indicate that there are not many more members in the student body who possess to a marked de- gree many of the characteristics specified in the code. Moreover, we are equally confident that there is no one in Janesville High School who has been so totally untouched by the spirit of the school as to be wholly devoid of any of the essen- tial qualiiications. The form of the code is staticg its spirit is the best that you may read into it in the way of idealism, service, and self sacrifice. If it helps you to capital- ize your potentialities, it will have justified its being. Wfhile it may not be given to all of us to actually see the grail', of service, nothing but our own personal disinclination will prevent us from joining the quest.

A Class Play At eight o'cloek, on the evening of December 14. 1023, the Senior Ns presented to one thousand spectators a play, The Three Live Ghosts. lt was very favorably received, and credit was given to all participants and to Miss Mildred Mandel, who successfully coached the play. Edith Everman played the part of the mercenary mother, Mrs. Gubbins, and deserves much praise for her successful acting. Frederick Hyslop was her ex-soldier son who used the English accent to perfection. Arthur Malmberg portrayed- the part of Wfilliam Foster, alias Vlfilliam jones, excellently. Bessie Ellis as Rose Gordon, sweetheart of William jones was in every way equal to the part. Spoofy, the unusual character of a shell-shocked soldier was carried out by George Peske who kept the audience breathless with laughter. VVoodie Miller as Briggs of Scotland Yard, assisted by Lawrence Gower as Benson,' and Bernard Somerfeld as Bolton, the detective: Harriet Gillingham as Peggy VVOofers, and Ester Damerow as Lady Liecester, spoke with ease and confidence. The Senior A Class is to be congratulated upon the perfection of the play, and the work of Miss Mildred Mandel was very fruitful.

The Charm School. produced the night of April 11, by the .lime graduating class, was a great success. There was a large audience, the auditorium being filled to its capacity. The play was considered one of the best ever put on. Everyone was well pleased. The play is the story of how Austin Bevans, played by Goldwin Hallett, who is an automobile salesman, inherits a girls' boarding school from his aunt. Swen Sorenson as Mr. Johns, is the holder of the mortgage on the school. His niece Elsie Benedotti, played by Marjorie Hooper, is at the school and president of the senior class. Mr. Johns is also the divorced husband of Miss Hayes, who is Virginia Eller, the principal of the school. Austin's friends, George Boyd, played by Tom Doran, who is in love with Elsie: David MacKenzie, who is Don Flaherty, disagrees with Austin's ideas of modernism: and the twins, .lim and Tim Simpkins, played by joe Steed and Morris Deshoug, whose father has stopped their allowance are looking for a job. Austin gives them all positions as teachers at the school. The pupils are Sally Boyd, George's sister-Edana Connors, Muriel Doughty-Helen Cushing, Ethel Spelvin--Ruth Fletcher. Lil- lian Stafgford-Josephine Bear. Madge Kent-Margaret Hemming, Alex Mer- cierGElizabeth Campbell, and Charlotte Gray-Ethel Rice. Ruth .lensen as Miss Curtis, was the perfect, fussy old maid secretary of the school, who immed- iately falls in love with Austin. The acting was well done and the scensry was excellent. Over seven hun- dred dollars was taken in from tickets. ,which will be used for the class gift.

They were given under the direction of Mrs. W. A. Munn, and the excellent acting showed efx- fccts of the coaching they received. The costumes and scenery were especially good, andl music furnished by the School for the Blind Orchestra, was excellent. The Maker of Dreams, the First presented, was a story of the awakening -of Pierrot to his love of Pierrette, whom he had always known, only after he had searched every- where for a suitable wife. Those who took part were, Marion Lee, Charlotte Clarke, and Jessie Vineer. Mrs. Lyman jackson played the piano, and Mrs. Eber Arthur, the violin, during the play. Taking place before the curtain and without other scenery than a table, Two Slatterns and a King, favorably impressed the audience, both by the good acting and elaborate cos- tumes. It told the story of a king who promised himself that he would marry the maid having the most tidy kitchen in the land. By chance the tidiest maid was most dirty, and the most slovenly, the neatest. Thus, through fate and chance, the king was married to Slut, the most slovenly maid in the land. The part of the king was played by Ruth Clark, Chance, by Marjorie Earleg Tidy, the False Slattern, by Alice Athong and Slut, the True Slattern, by Louis Larson. The most amusing of the three was Between the Soup and the Savouryf' It gave a view of what took place in an English kitchen while the family was eating dinner. Nettie Sincox, playing the part of the cook, was a typical Irish cook, with thecharacteristic pug of hair on the top of her head. Gladys Miller was the hit of the evening, as Emily. the meek little scullery maid. Stella Babcock, as Ada, was a typical modern maid, and deeply interested in the affairs of the family and household. The plays were considered excellent and of yery high standard, and it is hoped that more like them, will be given in the future.

The Blue-J Volume Une, Number One, of the Blue-'I was issued on Thursday, October 4, 1923, after two weeks of diligent preparation on the part of the editorial and business staffs. The editor-in-chief and business manager had been selected a week before by a nominating committee and student vote. The two student managers together with the faculty advisors picked staffs from the student body. The edition, with its white glazed paper, blue ink, and Old English heads' was a complete success. The student body liked the Blue-J, and proved it by buying hundreds of copies, making a high percentage for the school. Improve- ments were made upon each succeeding issue until the Blue-.I became the good- looking, well-made paper you see in this section. Changes made in the newspaper were- many. New columns and features were introduced: new types of headlines were used, with subsequent improved make-up: staffs were changed when better material was discovered. The Blue-J owes much more than can be stated here to the generous co-5 operation of the merchants of Janesville, who were always willing to advertise in our columns. And the Blue-.I in turn, increased its circulation and greatly improved its advertising display to repay them. The officials of the newspaper came home from the international convention of the Central Interscholastic Press Association, the proud possessors of a cer- tificate from that organization, declaring the weekly to be one of the lucky few selected as second class-more than ordinary-newspapers. It is sincerely hoped by the retiring staff that the important and intensely interesting work of the Blue-ul will be carried on as long as .Ianesville High School is in existence, a means of spreading the reputation of the high school both in this city and in the surrounding states.

The hrst semester of the year Adelheid Fuchs and Ellis jen- sen were on the staff It is an entirely departmental paper, being issued and supported by tho Latin students. The lirst numbers were printed, but later it was mimeographed, as it is now. The students luuy this paper voluntarily. The material printed in the Mercury consists of poems, original compositions, cartoons, and quotations from writers of antiquity. A most interesting novel dealing with Roman life, called Ajax the Mighty, by Harry XVollin, a graduating senior and the for- mer editor, is attracting much attention.

HALLOWEEN PARTY NOV. 3 On November 3, 1923. the Seniors gave the Juniors a very spectacular party.. in the gymnasium. At least the first part was spectacular. It was necessary for every one to go through Hades before reaching the pleasant, but less ex- citing part of the party. Hades was in the boy's gym. In Hades the juniors were greeted by various ghosts who showed them all the points of interest. A corpse, later discovered to be Mr. Evan's, reposed blissfully in one booth, a skeleton, probably from the biology room but never- the-less a skeleton, was in another. Then there was a fortune teller who pro- phesied all sorts of terrible things. The next stop was with two more ghosts, who presented the guests with the blood of your ancestorsy' and worms. alias spaghetti. In order to see the rest of the party, which was in the girls' gym each person had to go down the chute placed there, and to the dismay of every- one but the Seniors, it was charged with electricity. In the girls' gym refreshments in the form of sandwiches, cider and applesl were served. John Taylor and his orchestra furnished the music. Three rousing cheers for the Seniors! . HOME COMING DANCE, NOV. 17 November 17, 1923, Janesville High School and Beloit High School met on the football lieldg at the close of the game the score still remained O-O. This was Ja11esville's homecoming and a celebration in the form of a dance in the gymnasium was prepared for the evening. Blue and W'hite,, the school colors, were used in decorations. Long stream- ers decorated the gymnasium. A delightful cozy corner proved to be a popular rendezvous of the evening. Mr. and Mrs. D. VV. Holmes, acted as chaperones. There were almost as many Beloiters at the dance as there were Janesvilleites, and the attendance was much larger than had been expected. Hoel's six-piece orchestra furnished music. The dance was so successful that it is hoped another one will be held next year. . ' FOOTBALL The first football banquet in the new High School was held November 27, 1923. ,The dinner was served promptly at six o'clock in the cafeteria. This was the first affair of its kind that has been attended by the fair sex. The two tables, one for the ladies and one for the men, were placed on opposite sides of the room. They were filled, as all students had been invited instead of just the' football players as it had been customary previously. After dinner speeches were given by Superintendent Holt, Principal Brown, Mr. Gibson, athletic coachg Mr. Evans, assistant -athletic coachg Mr. Traxler, city manager, Mr. Lowman, baseball coach of the University of VVis- consing joe Leary, captain of the football team, and Doctor Wfoodworth, who assisted the team on every occasion. Mr. Holt introduced the speakers. Onej H zmdrcd Tttwitty-five , , i , Ul s. f , , . i til 2 '1 2 '4i-i11 iii i-i 12i T... THE CHRISTMAS PARTY This year, following the custom, we had a Christmas party. Jack Taylor's orchestra furnished the music for dancing. VVe also had our customary Christmas tree. It held, as usual. some very startling presents. The faculty of course received the majority, but a few of the prominent students were happily surprised and embarrassed. Some touching scenes occurred when couples found themselves accused of being under the mistletoe branches, which were hid in the streamers. Many of the pupils were very bashful and shy, as many were seen sitting out dances, rather than being caught unawares. Light refreshments followed the dance The attendance exceeded that of any previous Christmas party, and a few- alumni and former students were also present. WASHINGTON BIRTHDAY PARTY The VVashington Birthday party, sponsored by the Senior High Cabinet, was put on February 22. It was a matinee dance. There were many favors and punch was served. Much speculation went on as to how much of the above was consumed by some of our worthy seniors. Everyone had a fine time, and the party was a real success. Phyllis Luchsinger headed the CO11ll11lttCC.'E1lKl much credit is due her. ST. PATRICK'S PARTY ' The llA Class put on a St. Patrick's party on March 17, after school. For entrance one had to have the usual advisor's pass, ten cents, and A bit o'green. Many discussion and disagreements arose over sights of orange ribbons. It was a matinee dance. but there were several different kinds of dances, such as favor dances, leap year dances, robber dances, etc. At the intermission a group of girls put on a jig dance. JUNIOR PROM The Junior Prom will be held May 16 in the double gymnasium. Extensive decorations have been planned, and it has bee11 decided that Joe Kayser's orchestra of Rockford, will furnish the music for the dancers. It has also been decided that light refreshments will be served. About four hundred and fifty invitations have been printed, and all those attending must present one at the door. ' H .. It is the ambition of Miss Mandel and Miss Jenkinsfthe advisers of the class, to make this the best Prom on record, and the prospects look promising.

Football Review of Season Janesville opened the 1923 football season with bright prospects. For the past three years Janesville has staged a remarkable comeback in athletics. She secured the services of an excellent coach and the team got off with a good start. The lirst opponent was the strong Alumni. The Blues put up a stiff battle but lost upon failing to make a point after touchdown. The score was 13-12. A great improvement was shown when the Blues faced the strong St. Thomas, High of Rockford and were victorious by a score of 21-12. The following Saturday the team easily defeated University High of Madi- son. Janesville met defeat at the hands of the strong Racine eleven, which was expected to be a strong contender for the state title. ' The Blues next met Edgerton, an old rival, winning by a score of 26-14. The team displayed a great system of football at Edgerton, with the defeat of- the previous year still in their minds. the Blues were easily victorious over Mon- roe. According to dope, Janesville had the edge on Beloit. The Blues hadn't defeated their old rival for ten years. The battle was the best seen in Janes- ville for years. Each team did its best, but neither could score. The Blues had stopped Beloit's long list of victories over them. Janesville closed the season playing Madison East High. Janesville lostg each team scored two touchdowns, but Janesville missed the point after a goal. Thefinal score was 14-12. n Ona Hundred Twenty-vig-lr! 'm ill ff Alumni 13- -Janesville 12 The High School opened its football season playing the Alumni. Good form wasdisplayed by the Blues against their experienced opponents. The Alumni had piled up 13 points before the Blues began scoring. Hallet made the first touchdown on a forward pass and later Knipp carried the ball over again, The team was minus the services of Captain Leary who was out on account of' injuries. Rockford 12- -Janesville 21 The first real test for Janesville was with the strong St. Thomas High eleven of Rockford. Rockford scored first and it looked as though Janesville 'had some tough opponents. But Janesville soon took the offensive and carried the ball over three times. Condon kicked all three goals for Janesville and the game ended in Janesville's favor 21-12. - University High, Madison 7- -Janesville 24 Janesville began a real football attack completely overwhelming Madison. Gibson's men battered their way through their opponents for larger gains. Aus- tin scored the first touchdown within the first five minutes of play. Joe Leary scored by plowing through Madison from the 20 yard line. ' A little later Fol- som repeated the performance by skirting the end.' Captain Leary was the star for Janesville. Racine 31- -Janesville 0 Y Racine handed Janesville its first defeat by a large score. The visitors had a heavier and more experienced eleven. Janesville played hard during the first half and carried the ball to Racine's one-yard line when the whistle blew and ended the half. This seemed to dishearten the team, for in the second half Ra- cine outclassed Janesville in every way, making three touchdowns and a drop kick from the 25-yard line. Janesville had played its best in the first half, hold- ing Racine to one touchdown, carrying the ball to Racine's one-yard line. Edgerton 14- J -Janesville 26 After the defeat Racine handed us, the team practiced hard and on the fol- lowing Saturday we met Edgerton at the Tobacco City. The weather was per- fect and a great battle was expected by the eager fans. Janesville kicked to Edgerton who advanced with the ball into our territory. The Blues soon got the ball and with a smashing and passing attack carried the ball over the goal line. Knipp played a wonderful passing game which gave Janesville the first touch down. In the second quarter Edgerton scored and kicked the goal. Janesville soon followed in scoring when Knipp made a re- markable thirty-yard pass to Austin. With four seconds to go Edgerton again scored. In the third quarter neither team scored but Janesville carried the ball close to Edgerton's goal. VVhen play was resumed in the fourth quarter, Knipp shot a pass to Hallet for the third touchdown. Janesville again scored and held Edgerton by good defensive wo1'k. Captain .Lf-ary, Folsom, Hallet and Knipp starred for the Blues. ' One Hundred Twenty-nine ll to ' E . . . .. - . . g. A a . Monroe 7- -Janesville 25 The team journeyed to Monroe with the thought of last year's defeat still in their minds. Monroe kicked and Janesville advanced steadily down the field for a touchdown. Knipp shot a pass to Hallet over the goal line. Janesville quickly repeated its work in scoring' and again Hallet caught a pass over the goal line. Both touchdowns were scored in the first thirteen minutes of play. Monroe was no match for Janesville and after the Blues had piled up twenty-five points, Gibson sent in the second string backfield. The team even then held Monroe who' scored butonce. Brennan made many line plunges for large gains. An exchange of punts resulted in but little advantage for Monroe, and neither team scored again. U Beloit 0- -Janesville 0 On November 17, Janesville played its old rival, Beloit, at the Fair grounds. Thirty-tive hundred.spectators witnessed the unusual gridiron battle which end- ed in a O to O score. The Janesville High School band composed of 230 pieces presented itself at the game. Beloit kicked off and Janesville placed the ball on Beloit's 35 yard line after successful line smashes. Here Janesville fumbled but recovered the ball on the next play when Beloit fumbled. Janesville then advanced the ball to Beloit's 2 yard line. The Blues fumbled again, and lost their first chance to score. In- the second quarter Janesville again pushed the ball into Beloit's territory. Fol- som carried the ball over from the 7-yard line. but the touchdown was lost as Janesville was penalized for holding. Beloit kept the ball in Janesville's terri- tory most of the time in the third quarter. Christopherson tried two drop kicks but neither was successful. After the second drop kick Janesville took the ball on its own 20-yard line. Here the team woke up, realizing that neither team had scored. By quick line plunges and a couple of short passes they pushed the ball down the field to Beloit's 12-yard line, only to have the final whistle blow. Leary, Knipp and Folsom ,were the stars for Janesville. Madison East High 14- ' -Janesville 12 Janesville ended its football season playing Madison East High. Although Madison won, both teams scored two touchdowns. Madison kicked both points after goals while Janesville missed both. Janesville scored their first touchdown early in the first quarter. Knipp shot a pass to Hallet who carried the ball to Madison's 2-yard line. Leary car- ried the ball over. Madison scored in the second and third quarters. 0'Connell of Madison scored on an end run from Janesvi1le's 13 yard line. The other- Madison touchdown was made on a forward pass. In the fourth quarter three Janesville men were removed on account of injuries. By straight football and a few short passes Janesville carried the ball to Madison's 20-yard line. Knipp shot a pass to Hallet who was downed on the 1-yard line. Knipp took the ball. over. f Janesville tried hard to score again but the time was too short. W'ith 52 seconds to play Knipp passed over Madison's goal line, but the pass was incom- plete. Madison took the ball and the game ended. One H zmdred Tlzirtov J ' v X X fit f CAPTAIN JOE LIEARY-Fullhack. This was Captain joe's third year on the team. His remarkable leadership and brilliant playing throughout the season was a great encouragement to his men. His hard line smashing made him a terror to other teams. His stellar defensive playing will make it hard to replace him next fall. CLARENCE FOLSOM-Halfback. Footsie hailed from Pontiac, Illinois, and was a wonder to the football fans. He was a great open field runner and was adept at smashing the line. He's only a Sophomore, and we expect him to be the best halfback in the state. CHARLES KNIPP-Qua rterback. With three years' experience at quarter- back, Charley ran the 1923 football team in splendid style. His remarkable passing accounted for many a touchdown and his leaving will be much regretted. 4- T Q sig Qi T. s. s t DICK CONDON-Halfbaek. Dick was one of the fast backfield men this season. His clever headwork and of- fensive playing was a valuable asset to the team. Dick's place will be hard to fill next year. One Hundred Thirty-one Hk0 l lil ' ' . QM. E ' ei. ,, .A,, .,-V .

In the Edger- ton game. His Fighting spirit helped the Blue squad at many a disappointing period. flake has two more years with the team and can be relied upon to do his best. A .- WILLIARD AUSTIN-End. Bill played the other flank position and made a good running mate for Hallett. He was always down on punts and his fearless tackling' was a menace to the opposing teams. Much is expected of Bill next year. ROLLAND PAGEL-Left Tackle. The terror of janesville's forward wall was Rolland Pagel. He was in on every play and recovered many fum- bles that spelled losses for the oppon- ents. One Hundred Th irty-two Q! X J 5 4 ..

This was Stu's second year with the team. His fighting spirit was an encouragement to the other line men and his ability at the tackle position struck fear in his opponents. The Blues are loosing a val- uable man. BIRRELL VVALSH-Guard. , ' With two years' experience Birrell was one of ,lanesvil1e's best line men. His weight com- bined with quick action made it impossible for his opponents to break through. Luckily, ' Birrell will be with us next year. wil WALTER NIGHTENGALE-Guard. Walt was one of the mainstays in the Blue line, despite his size. He was a hard defensive man and a valuable player. Walt should prove a valuable asset to the team next year. S in it HERMAN EICHM EIER-Center. This was Herman's first year on the team. He was a hard lighting player and dis- played quick footwork in blocking his opponent. Herman will be with us next year and should be one of our best men. One Hundred Tliirty-IIw'ee ...in ,,i,Z,i44,a lmfqgff IW, . M-W jay. 1 :Z ,... xg., .. ,.,,-:s,s,,,f.f??fH- . 3 5.51 ff su gf?

Review of the Season lfVhen Coach Gibson called out the men who were to represent Janesville High on the basketball Hoor. Bill Austin, Janesville letter man, and Clarence Folsom, former Pontiac, Ill., football and basketball star, were the only experi- enced regulars responding, around which a team was to be built. It was a task for l'Gibby to turn out a winning team from a squad composed almost entirely of green men, but he set to work and turned out the lightest and one of the fastest teams which ever wore the blue and white of Janesville. The season started out slowly, the team dropping several of the earlier games to their opponents, but with a new style of offense and an unquenchable lighting spirit injected into them the team battled to the distinct championship' at NVhitewater, and won the right to represent Janesville at Madison, in the state tournament. Here the team won the first game from Eagle River, 25-14, but dropped the next to Oregon, 24-20, in a tive minute overtime contest. The following men received major 'lJ's for their work during the season: Folsom, Palmer, Eichmeier, Austin, Knipp, and Hahn.

Both teams had an entirely new outfit on account of last year's graduation. After being com- pletely outclassed in the first half of the game, Janesville came back in the second half, staging a brilliant rally, and defeated Evansville, scoreless in the second half, and piled up 10 points themselves. The fourth quarter was featured by fast and furionsplaying of both teams. Captain Palmer's basket with a minute to play cinched the game. Milton 16- -Janesville 6 Our next game was with Milton at Janesville. The Blues seemed unable to find them- selves, and Milton soon forged ahead. Gibson then played the second string of men who held Milton on equal terms. -In the fourth quarter the regulars were again put in and they played hard but the lead was too great to overcome. When the whistle blew Milton led 16 to 6. Stoughton 25- -Janesville 19 The week following our defeat with Milton, we played Stoughton. Loose guarding in the first half enabled Stoughton to gain by a margin of 18 to 8. .The Blues outplayed their opponents in the last half but the lead was too great to overcome. The fourth quarter found Janesville striving desperately for victory. They were gradually crawling upon Stoughton, but time was up, and before Janesville could redeem itself. Janesville's scores were well divided up among the players which shows that good teamwork prevails. The final score was 25 to l9. . Waukesha 18- -Janesville 15 The first out of town game was at Waukesha. Our opponents had most of their inen back and expected an easy victory over Janesville. However, the Blues took the over confidence out of them as soon as the -game began. The game was' fast and snappyg both teams striving hard. The score was close throughout the game and with a few minutes to go VVaukesha was leading 16 to 15. A bad decision seemed to take the spirit out of the Blues and VVaukesha added two free throws to the score before the final whistle blew. Evansville 14- ' -Janesville 19 After two weeks of rest the Blues went to Evansville for a return game. Evansville was all set to avenge the defeat given them at Janesville. The Blues led the scoring end all during thc game. VVe played an excellent game and our defense was especially good. Folsom scored twelve of the nineteen points, while Knipp played a good game at guard.- Racine 23- - -Janesville 11 Racine, our next opponent, came to Janesville with a strong aggregation. Rose, the sensational guard easily stood out as the star, scoring 13 of Racine's 23 points. The Blues put up a good fight but couldn't find the basket. The regular Janesville players battled on equal terms with Racine, but when Coach Gibson sent in substitutes Racine began to gain and was never in danger of defeat throughout the rest of the game. Folsom scored ten of Janesville's eleven points. One Hundred Tln'rly-.vz.v ig ,zwfee ., ' -. MMWWMXW gr Z t 2 .:1. --,,, ':'1' V'1-AW-: . V - his are ,, , E 3+ it X f was , , a.fis.e2W,. W a , y .

Tl1e Blues were determined to do their best to avenge the defeat at Janesville. In tl1e after- noon before the game Janesville was already 011 the floor to do some shooting practice, when the Stoughton Principal cancelled the permission to use the gym which seemed un- sportsmanlike. The team played its best, but Stoughton most of tl1e time kept but two baskets i11 the lead. The team was weak on shooting free throws alld could have won had they made tl1e free ones. Capt. Palmer, Folsom, alld Knipp starred for Janesville. Union High 32- -Janesville 27 O11 February 12 the Blues took a trip to Milton. They had a stro11g outfit alld had defeated us at Janesville by a large score. The small floor at first seemed to bewilder the Janesville players. Austin a11d Knipp were put out of the game o11 fouls, making it necessary to do some stil? guarding. The Blues put up a good tight but Milton managed to keep in the lead by a few points and when tl1e whistle blew they were 1eadi11g by a 32 to 27 score. Eichmeier scored six baskets while Hahn made two baskets and two free throws. Beloit 7- , -Janesville 16 Our a11cie11t rivals from the Gateway city were set Oll victory because of their past record this season. Beloit was ha11dicapped 011 account of the fact that Krueger, star for- ward. was dropped from tl1e team 011 accou11t of professionalism. Janesville went into the fray determi11ed to patcl1 past losses by beating Beloit. The Hrst half showed Janesville leading 8-2.

S. played St. John's of Milwaukee. Renaud, star center for Janesville last year, was with the Milwaukee team. Our opponents had played the previous night in Rockford, and were not in good condition. The Blues got off with a poor start a11d it looked for awhile as if St. John's would be victorious. At the end of the iirst quarter, St. John's led 9 to 3. In the second quarter Janesville scored 6 poi11ts and held their opponent to 2. In the second half the Blues found themselves a11d gained a big lead which they re- tained throughout the game.

They had defeated us two times previously and the Blues were out to get revenge. Janesville completely bewildered Stoughton the first half by fast and furious playing, piling up a score of l7 to 4 at the half. ln the second half Coach Gibson sent in the subs and Stoughton began to catch up but could not overcome the big lead. Elk1l0fl'l 15- -Janesville 26 By defeating Stoughton we gained the right to play Elkhorn who was also victorious in its first game. They had a fast aggregation and a tight game was expected. However when the Blues got started Elkhorn wasn't in it. Folsom, our star forward. was everv- where, and flashed past his opponents with remarkable speed. Austin and Hahn did good guarding and broke up every play. Janesville kept the lead throughout the game and by this victory they played in the finals. Madison 16- ' -Janesville 21 VVe won the right to play Madison Central for the Championship by our victories over Elkhorn and Stoughton. A large crowd from Janesville went to VVhitewater to cheer for the team., The game was one of the most exciting ever played at Whitewater. Fast and hard playing along with the cheering of the crowd brought the bacon home to Janesville. As the quarter ended, Janesville led 4-3.

It took some time to play off the games, but it proved to be the most exciting and thrilling tournament in years. Up to the last game the 11B's were expected to win. They had not lost a game, while the 1lA's had been beaten by the 12A's, and the l2A's by the 11l3's. However, the 11A's beat them, and made a triple tie for the championship, which will have to be played off in the future. The banquet was held that evening after the games, and thc Varsity team was announced there, as follows: Center, Louise Hoort: Side Center, Helen Rileyg Guards, Dorothy Kotwits, Helen Cushing, and Emiline Darceyg For- wards.

This year we opened the season with Volley Ball and Soccer. There was such bad weather though, that the Soccer was given up and all attention was given to Volley Ball. This is the iirst time Volley Ball has ever been played here. Perhaps it was because of its newness that it had such popularity. At any rate there were many out and thus made it possible for every class to have a team, except that the Senior A's and B's had a team together. The Seniors elected Marjorie Turner as Managerg the junior A's, Alice XVittenbergg the .lunior Bs', Dorothy Jensen: the Sophomore Ns. lane Gage: and the Sophomore B's, Camilla Shikenjanski. The tournament was played off and won. Much interest was shown and it was an exciting event. sh ,P A There was a big banquet afterwards and the season ended with much noise.

Y Y, X , Since the publication of the last Phoenix, members of the Alumni of Janesville High School have awakened to the realization that their interest in the old school, in the old friends, and in their classmates was still alive, but that there was no means of establishing communication with Alumni members outside the city. As a beginning toward an Alumni Directory we have compiled a complete roll of the past five classes, in the hope that later, interested alumni will build up an accurate roll with addresses of all the members of all the classes which have graduated from Janesville High School. Such a roll would ob- viously be too long to be included in the Phoenix itself, but if alumni oiifieers could worlc in conjunction with the alumni editor, such a directory could be published as a supplement to the annual. As Alumni Editors we leave to the June Class of 1924 the challenge to organize a cam- paign for one hundred per cent membership in the Alumni Association within its own per- sonnel. The successful issue of such a project will doubtless stimulate many graduates who are not members to join the organization, and with the impetus of increased membership will make the association a vital force in the life of the community and the school. We recommend the welcoming of new members at semi-annual banquets to be held in January and june. A member from each Senior Class might be a representa ' 011 the alumni board in order that the class may work in co-ordination with the officer f the association to their mutual advantage. In the preparation of this section we are greatly indebted to many of tk alumni who have given their contributions to us. To Mrs. Latimer, Mrs. Horn, Miss Douglas, Mr. Bassford, Mr. Palmer. and Mr. Cun- ningham, we owe many thanks, for their letters. Many of the former art editors of the past annuals have given of their talent to help illustrate our section. VVe hope you will enjoy these sketches by Walt Felts, Stewart Scobic, Miss Jessica George, Miss Evelyn Kavelage, Miss Georgia Quirk, Miss Helen VVilcox and Mrs. Taylor in the present issue as much as you have in the past. Again we thank those of the Alumni who by their help have assisted in making the department a success, and we hope that the interest will grow' until each class has a 100 percent enrollment in the Alumni Association.

'L in . as lf Evansville, VVis. Dear Alumni Editors: A brief account of the Janesville High School as it was Before the VVar may be of interest to your subscribers. I was a member of the Class of 1859. The high school together with a number of the grammar rooms occupied the building on High Street, afterward used as a grade building. just before our class graduated, the high school was moved to the hue new building on lvisconsin Street. I think we were quite as proud of our high school building as is the present generation of the wonderful Main Street building. Levi Cass was High School Principal. On the board of Education at that time were D. B. Eldredge and james Armstrong. The assistant instructors were Frances Bacon, Ava B. Morgan and Belle Webster. The total enrollment was about thirty-Five. There were three recitation rooms in the 11ew building, but only one in the old building. We had no laboratory of any kind. Prin- cipal Cass sometimes brought to the building some chemicals for simple experiments. Latin and French were optional but all other subjects were given as required. Among the subjects taken up were Mental Philosophy, Natural Philosophy, Botany, United States History, Chemistry, Arithmetic, Geometry, Algebra, Physical Geography, Grammar and Rhetoricals. In Rhetoricals the boys gave declamations and orations and the girls read essays. Spelling matches were popular in our school at this time. There were no teams organized at this time, but ball playing was the most popular sport. Some of the girls were quite as expert as the boys at ball playing. I had to cross Center Avenue and Court Street bridges to get from my home to the new High School building. The distance between the bridges however, was much less to walk than it is today. There were so few house in that part of town that we wal-ked directly through the blocks without any attention to streets. VVhen the Center Avenue bridge went out with the Hood we were taken over the river in a boat, or walked across the railroad bridge. The watchman told us if trains were due. The class of 1864, of which my sister was a member, held no graduating exercises be- MARY E. DOUGLAS, - Class of 1859. CMrs. Douglas is a graduate of the class of 1859, and we believe her to be the oldest living alumnusj cause the principal and all the boys had gone to the War. Dear Alumni Editors: The time that I spent as a student of the janesville High School was a period of change. l am a member of the Mighty '96 , the first class to graduate from the red fortress on South High Street. We called it the New High School, but it is such no longer, since a new and greater building has arisen to perform functions that in my day were not event imaginable. The class of 1896 was the largest class that had ever entered. We graduated fifty-eight members, which compares favorably with later years in point of numbers, and as for quality, it was unexcclledg we thought so then, and have never changed our opinions since. W'e began our scholastic career on the top floor of what is now called the Jefferson School. The first and second Hoors, then as now, were used for grade purposes, and the- entire activities of the high school, recitation rooms, laboratory and assembly room were, on the third floor. lt was the pleasure and privilege of the Senior class in Chemistry to work at odd moments, building up synthetic mixtures, using HZS as a base, in order that the fumes seeping out into the Assembly room would bear witness to their mysterious progress in science. France W. Cooley was Superintendent, and he was ably assisted by Miss Sanborn, the vice principal, and four other women teachers, one of whom was Miss Caroline F. Zeininger, who so many generations of students have known and respected. With the advent of D. D. Mayne as Superintendent and H. C. Buell as principal, which occurred at the beginning of our second year, a new order was instituted. These men combined a high degree all of the necessary elements for a good teacher. They took a.

VVell do we remember Mr. Mayne teaching his geology class in the assembly room, with no apparatus but the wide main aisle. One day the aisle would be a mighty glacier, and again a roaring river, with the honored teacher rushing up and down its length to represent the movement of irresistable forces. The need of a new high school building was early recognized by Superintendent Mayne, and he started an up-hill fight to secure it. He was handicapped by the general financial depression at that time existing, as well as by the indifference of the citizens and by a provision in the city charter stating that no more than twenty-six thousand dollars might be levied in any one year by taxation, for school purposes. The indifference of the citi- zens was overcome by inviting prominent tax payers to address the morning assembly, and we had the experience of learning the life history of many of the pioneers, their hardships, and the alleged causes for their later success. After the speech, the visitor would be con- ducted to the different recitation rooms to show the crowded conditions everywhere. This part was ably demonstrated by having the largest classes meet immediately after assembly. At any rate, the new building was erected in time for us to enter it as Seniors in the fall of 1895, and we considered our New High School the best in the State of Wisconsin. The only one to approach it was a new building erected at the same time in the city of Racine. During our life as high school students, various activities were opened up that had never been previously undertaken. X'Ve saw the first football team organized, with inter- scholastic games in surrounding towns. Janesville High played the first football game ever staged in Edgerton, score being 57 to O in our favor. Janesville furnished the referee who also acted as sole linesman, and as Janesville made first down at every play, the referee would shout, Janesville's ball, first down! A crowd of Edgerton rooters were ready to mob him, because they claimed personally to have counted a large number of downs before the one just announced as first down. Vtfhen-the real significance of the situation was explained by Janesville supporters, the Edgerton boosters subsided in hu- miliation. Field meets and baseball games were also indulged in, with great pleasure and con- siderable honor. During our time, debating and public speaking were encouraged. yVe established the Rusk Lyceum, composed of twenty-Five boys from the three upper classes. VVe hired a lodge room in the business section, as a meeting place, and sturliously avoided any effort to tie us up with school discipline. Our meetings were as dignified and serious, however, as though the entire faculty were present. The Rusk Lyceum had a long and honorable career, until finally killed by what its founders realized was a danger, that is to say, faculty interference. It is certainly a joy at the present time, to wander through the light and spacious rooms of the New High School on Main Street, and to realize that the city of Janesville is ever thoughtful of the welfare of her youth. During each epoch of the city's existence there has been a conscious effort to afford the very best facilities for extending an education, and it is to be hoped that this laudable effort will always be appreciated by the beneficiaries, for in education is the safety of our republican institutions. ' BERNARD M. PALMER. J. H. S., 1896. Dear Alumni Editors: Twenty-five years since graduating from the dear old Janesville High School! It seems incredible, and as I look back and recall Class Night when we stood seventy-four strong on the Myers House stage and sang, Those days were our happiest, though they seemed so long, I realized that many a truth is spoken lightly. Where are the girls who wrote that song, I wonder? I have sung it to five babies, and they have solemnly blinked and sweetly smiled at its haunting melody, though they too will need to have been graduated for many years before they can appreciate the joys of school days. Here, in the midst of a pioneer country, the last frontier, i11 a small, new city, built like a toy shop town, beautifully landscaped, tropically picturesque, and charming in every way, we are chronicling the completion of new developments and enterprises-hard roads, new railroads, new industries and the planting of immense horticultural and agricultural acre- One Hundred For-iy-.vcz'c11 s assss i .. .. ti i 'Q .'Q.,, at s4Z.i2'Qisl M1?E, . ...Inf-?R 2m2-fs.

It is an extension of the work I so much enjoyed on the Phoenix of the '90s. Neither years nor distance can dim the happy memories of these days when we dis- cussed the Dreyfus Question, helped Caesar build that bridge, and presented Johnny Arbuthnot with a nursing bottle on the momentous morning that he first became a beaming, .though embarrassed father. As an alumna, I feel a personal pride in the growth of the Janesville High School. I feel that it is an ho11or to have been associated with the classmates who are now so widely scattered, so many of whom have achieved greatness. I feel that it was a privilege to have studied under the instructors who in thought, deed and precept, guided our' destinies. May the next quarter of a century bring to the Janesville High School all the blessings that a beloved and faithful Alma Mater so richly deserves. NELLIE VAN BEYNUM HORN, J. H. S., '99. fMrs. John R. Horn.j Dear Alumni Editors: The vision of youth is always forward and to its eyes new things seem best. A mes- sage from the alumni must to a certain extent be a voice from the past, a recalling of things as they were when the alumni were students at the Janesville High School. But youth is not always right in thinking that new things are best, and perhaps a recalling of some of the things that are still cherished in the hearts of the alumni of our high school would be interesting, and might even result in some of those things which have not been retained being actually adopted. Were we of the alumni to be given a choice of whether we should attend Janesville High School as it is today or Janesville High School as it was in the days when we did enter, almost every alumnus would select the high school of today. The strongest reason for the almost unanimous decision would be the magnificent new building and its modern. equipment and grounds. We were always very loyal to our high school, and we never thought of complaining of its facilities, but if we played basketball, we used to run over to the Y. M. C. A., to dress, or else a dozen or more of us clustered under a couple of showers. Contrast this with the present facilities for both the boys and the girls, includ- ing separate gyms, swimming pools and shower facilities and one cannot help but be. thankful for the great advance. The next reason favoring the present school as compared with the school the alumni attended is in the personnel of the faculty. Our teachers were faithful and knew their subjects, but year by year their ability, the congeniality, and the system of the teachers has increased. . The last predominating feature which would cause the alumni to wish that they had an opportunity to attend high school as it is now is the Band. As alumni, we certainly appreciate that band, even if we are jealous of the opportunity its members are having, and' we know that it does wonders to make a good spirit in the student body. Every alumnus naturally thinks he or she could be a member of the Band if there had only been a Band when he was in high school, and that in itself would have been enough to dispell any drudgery that might possibly have crept into school life. As alumni, we often wonder if the present high school students as they graduate will take with them the many pleasant memories of their high school days that will always be ours. Traditions, customs and associations lie at the base of most of these pleasant mem- ories. As the school grows larger and more complex, there is always the danger of get- ting away from a closely united school spirit and loyalty, and from the enjoyment of pleasant associations. The annual custom of having a Senior-Freshman reception has been dropped, perhaps partly due to the fact that the Junior High School meets in the same building. Some day it would be well to revive that time honored custom of the Seniors welcoming the Freshmen. One Hundred Forty-eight M..

A literary society does exist in the present High School, but it does not occupy the important place the old societies did, and it does not have the activities which those societies had. It is the feeling of many alumni who took some of their best training and most pleasant associations from the literary societies, that these societies might be re vived in an acceptable form. Many of the Janesville alumni can remember the days when Janesville beat Beloit regu larly in athletics of all kinds and when it was the usual occurrence for the Janesville Bas kebtall five to be playing in the State Tournament for the State Basketball Championship In 1913 Janesville won the State Championship in Basketball. With the present capable and hard working athletic coach, we are expecting to see a return of the good old days in athletics. The alumni extends a most hearty greeting to the student body of the High School . ROBERT J. CUNNINGILRM, Class of 1912. Dear Alumni Editors: In your letter to me you mentioned that I doubtless would remember the Phoenix of my high school days. I'll admit it's a long way back to remember, but how could any one who has ever been in dear old J. H. S., though it were hundreds of years ago, forget one of its slightest details? And I know by this time you have discovered that the Phoenix i is anything but a slight detail. , I suppose it is the custom, as formerly, for the Phoenix to come out every other year, V edited by the Junior class. How well I remember what busy people the Juniors were when they were working on the 1914 Phoenix, We, in the class of '14, hadn't thought so much of them up until that time, but we had to admit that they could work, and that they turned out an excellenfbook. I think the Class of '14 was always sorry that the publishing of the Phoenix didn't, fall to its lot. We always liked to show what we could do, and I kn 01-IC Hmidrcd Forty-nine Qifftzm OUR ALUMNI nc Hundred Fifty . - -.. , . 'ii 22305-M our Phoenix would have been a wonder, for the class of 1914 was one of the most ex- ceptional classes ever graduated from the Janesville High School! Any fourteener will tell you that! I think that an Alumni Section in the Phoenix is a splendid idea. You don't know how good it has made me feel, to know that, although we alumni are no longer with you, you still remember us. Leaving J. H. S. will always stand out in my memory as a heart- breaking experience. Though life in later years holds much happiness for us, there is something about the joy of high school days to which nothing can be compared. It is some years since I have been in Janesville, but my thoughts go there frequently, and I am always more than interested when we hear any news of the Janesville High School. I understand that you have a fine new building. The old red building on High Street will always hold a warm spot in my heart, but I realize that it was inadequate for the growing demands upon it, and I am glad that you have such a splendid new home on South Main Street. I feel that I mustn't take any more of your time or space, for there will be other Alumni to be heard from. It has been a great pleasure to me to write to you, and a greater one to know that, although we alumni are gone, we are not to be forgotten. Sincerely yours, 1914 BESSIE BUELL LATIMER. Dear Alumni Editors: Of course, I remember the Phoenix. Did you know that my personal copy is in the cornerstone of your new high school building? But I guess I remember most of the people mentioned in the book, for as their Principal I got so many pleasant contacts with them. You asked me of my memories of those who were with me in the high school. Well, I was with you live years and became acquainted with a lot of you. I suppose this is a sign of old age but you know I remember better more of the students who were with us the first few years than those who were with us the later years. Maybe that fact is due to the larger enrollment of the last few years. But anyhow one can't forget Kenneth Bick's laugh, or Austin Sprackling's smile, of Mildred Smith's cheer, and Elizabeth Mouat's happiness, and Bill Fern's antics Cat the Milton tournament, for instancej, or Dean Kimball's debating-ability, or Bob Bolles' first love affair Che haunted our neighborhoodj, or George Todd's ability to read books, or Joe Johnston's oratory, and Ronald Smith's dress suit, land life of Bill Closej I remember the expression but nothing was done to him for killing Principal Bassford, because 'the world was rid'of a pest.' By the way, Ronald, Miss Scanlan is here with us in Ashland. And so my mind runs on to the days which were. I have been trying all morning to plan some way to pack twelve hundred people into a gym which is jammed with live hundred. We have the tournament here in March. My experiencehin the J. H. S. with eight hundred seventy-five pupils in a building crowded with three hundred Hfty stands me a good stead. Of course, I think of the teachers, kind old Mr. West, who adopted me as his assistant, and Mr. Arbuthnot with his Scotch wit. No one ever gave me more help or loyal co-opera- tion than Mr. Dorrans. I say, there is a regular fellow! Mrs. Bassford hears from Miss Memeck. She is professor at the University of Minnesota. And Mrs. Hull was in the Hawaiian Islands the last we heard from her. Who can tell me where Miss Whitney is? We would like to know. We often speak at our house of Miss Zeininger, Miss Menzies, Mrs. Adams, and Mrs. Whittet. Often we hear from some of them. Mrs. Adams and Mrs. Whittet are teaching in North High, Minneapolis. How are John and Mike McCue? I was their assistant for a long time, you know. We hear from Miss Birmingham once in a while. When I wasn't assistant to the McCue cousins, I took instructions from Miss Birmingham. , Perhaps you know Mrs. Boyd, Miss Scanlan, Miss yVillegala, and Miss Hough are with us here in Ashland.

Few are willing to pay more for this transportation than is necessary. The motto of Chevrolet, For Economical Transportation, is our sole guide in the design and con- struction both of our passenger and commercial models. Yve do not endeavor to produce the cheapest automobile but the most economical, because we are concerned in delivering the utmost per dollar of price in econornical transportation. The selling price of an automo- bile. while important. is secondary to the cost of transportation throughout its life. This includes the purchase price and all operating and maintenance expenses for an av- cragre period of six years. Chevrolet delivers on the average the lowest per year and per mile cost of transportation, therefore it is the cheapest in the long run. Notwithstanding its low purchase price and economy of operation and maintenance, Chevrolet is a quality product, fully equipped and modern in every respect. It has modern style, fine finish, a high degree of riding comfort and engineering efficiency. It can be easily shown that for economical transportation Nothing Compares With Chevrolet ' l A 1' A sccs c, , Lcliol-5vR0I'L.11T,f R. W. MOTOR SALES CO. ' Phone 58 208 E. Milwaukee St. T. J.
