This small and rrc t� n class was what is now the finished product, the class or 1!) . Our class was somewhat astounded by unfamiliar surroundings, but soon settled down and took up the work of freshmen with a zest. During the lirst year of our sojourn in J. 11. S.. our class did very well. We were not. as hardly any freshmen classes are, represented in athletics or other id- the school activities, except declamatory. Many oI the pupils of the class showed such ability that a brilliant future was seen in the oiling. When we began our second year, the greenness of tin past year had disappeared and we entered in upon our studies with a rush. W hen the roll call of our class was taken, tin size of the class was found to have decreased considerably. That year we were much better represented in athletics and other school activities. As our class traversed the space across the mainroom and drew next to the senior row. we were no longer of the underclassmen. In our third year, we outshone either of our previous years by far. W’e were well represented in athletics, had the winner of the declamatory contest, were represented in oratory and debate, were represented in the orchestra, quartet, glee club, and established a record of scholarship not soon to be forgotten. Aside from that we put on dunces and a good prom. Thus with our class of a few over twenty and a good record, we entered upon our duties as seniors. Here again were our feats of scholarship repeated. Our members formed the greater part of the athletic teams and we were well represented in all other school activities and can show a good record for our high school career. W'e who have persevered and stuck to our aims are now soon to pass out of one step of our life and pass into the higher forms of education or directly into life. Whatever he- the case, these students can always look back with pride upon the tine record which the class of 22 established during its sojourn in the Jefferson High School. K. V.

To join the class . f twenty-three. The day was dark and dreary. And I was sad and weary. And on this day I made this rule. To quit the farm and leave for school. Sad was I when I trodded up that hill With little hopes or none, my memory to fulfill. Slowly 1 gained entrance through the door. And there I stood as though a knife had pierced me to the core. Lost! Yes lost among each smiling face. And in the Hi st seat I took my place. Everything was going line Until the clock struck nine. Then came that dreadful test. And everyi ne's duty was to try his best. Chill trembling agues seized upon my frame Some have failed and others have w n the Helds of fame. The time was rolling fast. And soon our Freshman year was pa-t. Just think what we have done. For many a victory we have won. Strong in athletic- and popular in spirit For every class admired it. Proudly we left our studies for a vacation, PACK TWENTY-KIOHT IJHS] And in the fall went back to pet an education. For now we won our honored name. For straight and square we’ve played the game. And everybody knows what this should mean To have men playing on the foot-ball team. And now three men are wearing “J’s” Which were won in many ways. Proudly they come to school with a smile on their face, And those are the men who shall win in our hearts first place. The “J” wearers are Kroening, Fleming, and Betzold, And each of these has worked hard for their honors which I have told. Kroening is our next year's foot-hall captain. For many a yard he will gain. And lead his boys to victory And long may his team be remembered in history. Fame was won in foot-ball, but that was not all, In basket-ball we beat ’em all. hich can be proved by last year’s tournament score. And this year we haye tried hard to get llrst place once more. But succeeded by getting second place By giv ing the Seniors a hard, hard race. Not very successful were we in oratory But received wonders in declamatory. Six persons acted in the Private Secretary, And all worked hard as a busy bee. And oh! How the people trembled with joy. When they -aw that Koerner boy. The chief character of the play, Who worked for honors and not for pay. The Junior class is a merry crowd And 'tis no wonder why we're so proud. For happy are the days of the Junior class. Which will be remembered by many a lad and lass. Now if you want to know what the Juniors did in their High School days. Just look around and count the “J’s”. —Harry Bleckschmidt.

Many times during the first few days did we wish we were back in Hie eighth grade where we could do as we pleased without being eyed t those brilliant looking Seniors. All was a mixup to us at first. When we were supposed to lie in English we were in Algebra. At noon Mr. Maelnnis entered the main room and sympathized with us by telling us a joke that ended with the phrase that we were too green to burn. Although we were filled with awe and astonishment at first, our objects of wonder daily diminished until finally we were used to the schedule and thought we were pretty bold. Some of the members of I lie class even stirred up enough grit to enter the speaking contests. (Hie boy. Joe Haberman. went in for oratory and debate, and three girls Marion Garity, Kvelyn Smith, and Carmen Haberman entered the declamatory contest. Many of the girls belonged to the glee club and were in ttie operetta. So interested we became in the school work and outside enterprises that we were surprised to find May 27. 1921 steadily advancing amt everybody preparing for the summer vacation. The first few weeks were not bad because it was different than vacation, but after a while athletics came along to cheer us a little. The Sophomore Class was well represented on the team. Two of our boys, Halph Schiefelhein and Curtis Sommerer received J’s. Ralph Schiefelhein also played on the regular team in basket ball this year, and that is quite an honor for • only a Soph.' Many Sophomore Girls belong to the glee club, as last year, and we are well represented in the declamatory contests. We have had a very joyous time in high school this far and hope we an spend tlie other two years as profitably as we did these. —Carmen Haberman. sioijsdeug 0AMA1UIH1 39Vd PAGE THIRTY-THREE PAGE THIRTY-FOUR PAGE THIRTY-FIVE C Freshman Class D Raymond Adler Dorothy Akin Charles Hanks Kthel Bienfang Herbert Mienfang Robert Hrandel Roger Buss Melvin Doering Earl Fischer Evelyn Freeman Meta Grilzbauch Romeo (Iruennerl Bernice Hack Myrtle Hamann Grace Harrison Ruth Hauser Margaret Heilemann Vera Henry Mary Jackson Roy Keuler Elva Klitzkie Alfred Koltes Joe Kroening Rose Kuelin Margaret Lukas Angeline Lukas Willard Metzen Marie Mussehl Leon Mutchler Charles Noble Dorothy Olson Francis Reinhardt Dorothy Reul Agnes Roland Winifred Ruetli Harvey Schiefelbein Lawrence Schiefelbein Stella Schneider Merlin Schoeller Josephine Scliweiger Cecelia Seeber Charles Stevens Ailele Stoppenbach Lester Wall her Thomas Welch Salome Welter Alice Wendt Ruben Wollel Louise Zuehl The Freshman Cruise We started sailing on the high school journey of 1H21 and 1922 with by far the largest number of passengers aboard of the four journeying ships, with skipper Adele Stoppenbach. first mate Grace Harrison. and Alice Wendt as second mate. Yes, we have women suffrage. Our flag was a green one, not because it was our choice but because it was the custom. We sailed cautiously at first, for there were many rocks along our course, mainly Sophomores and teachers. Of course we bad dances and basketball games for entertainment while on our journey. After much struggling we succeeded in securing last place in the school basketball tournament; this also seems to he the custom. Finally, after what seemed a long lime, we reached the half-way line. Hut happiness is not always complete. We were again becoming aware of the fact that there were rocks along our course. In spite of our care we lost many passengers, many of these on those treacherous English rocks. Those who survived the wreck, but did not complete the journey will do so next year. We are sailing on smoothly now after this bereavement. We are beginning to see our journey’s end. Some say they see more rocks ahead, but most of us are optimistic and hope for a successful completion of our Freshman journey. —Roger Russ. |’a ;k thirty-six Snapshots PAGE THIRTY-SEVEN The Special Chorus I AGE THIRTY-NINE 3 The Special Chorus Keen interest in music tins been shown this year by the students of J. U. S. Because f Iliis enthusiasm, a special chorus of twenty members was organized. The chorus which meets every Thursday during the study period, lias accomplished a great deal of work. I nder the direction of Miss Richardson, every member has done his best and each one lias enjoyed the wo k immensely. Their first appearance in public was made in April in the spring concert, which was a decided success. The members: During the past year the staff of the Wisconsin Octopus reserved a page in their publication for jokes and cartoons to be submitted by the high schools throughout the state. I'tie few months that this page was reserved brought forth very good results. I'he first time that the .1. H. S. Octy” Club sent in its contributions, there appeared two jokes and one cartoon. A school is considered fortunate if it can get one of its contributions in the Octopus, but it is characteristic of Jefferson to be just a little ahead of the rest, so the Octy” page lor high schools was fifty per cent Jefferson. Nearly every month that this page was continued there appeared contributions from this school. I lie Octy dub of .1. 11. S. regretted the discontinuance of the high school page. The following were the members of tlie club: Mary Armstrong Iilella Baumann Joe Berg Mark Bienfang Irene Church Esther Dahareiner Robert Fleming Iva Dross Myrtle Hamman Flavia Heimert Vera Henry Joseph Haberman (ieorge Kroening Dorothy I.eedle John Mattes Estelle Schumacher Albert Shannon Ailele Stoppenbach Isabelle Weber Mark Welter Irene Wolfgram J.

Miss Campbell gave tryouts for those who wished to be in tbe play and as a result selected tbe following cast: Ralph Koerner_____________________________Robert Spalding Louis Mistele_____________Douglass Caltermole Albert Shannon_____________________________Harry Marsland Joseph Haberman_________________________ Gibson Norman Robiseli___________Mr. Marsland M. !•'. H. Sara Hullwinkel_____________________Mrs. Stead Forrest Murk.................... Mr. Callermole Iva Gross___________________________________Miss Ashford Daisy Gruennerl______________________________Kva Webster Evelyn Christians_______________Edith Marsland Robert Klockow____________________John- A Butler Eldon Wineland______________________Writ Server The play was appreciated very much, so much in fact that when it was given a second time as a benefit for tbe American Legion all tbe seals in tbe Opera House were occupied. This play marks the beginning of a Dramatic Club for .1. H. S. The characters of tbe 'Private Secretary” are charter members. A dramatic Club should prove very beneficial as it teaches poise which is most necessary in the business world. Oratory Never before has there been such good prospects for success in Oratory. The Senior Class entries should prove very formidable in the district and state contests. We have good hopes for our underclass entries also and expect unlimited success from them in tbe future. A number of tbe boys studied Public Speaking under Miss Welch last year, so they bad excellent training. Mr. Maclnnis should have a wonderful team this year.

The Boys’ Quartet of the Jefferson High School turned out very good music this year.

Mark Hienfang John Mattes George Kroening Joseph Haherman P OE FORTY-THREE jhs: High School Notes Staff A school without a school paper is like a lamp without oil; so we have the High School Notes” in The Jefferson Banner each week. Every Thursday morning the pupils crowd into the library to laugh at the jokes about their classmates and to read the write-up of the football or basketball game. The high school notes keep np the school interest and tell of the funny incidents in the lower classes to the Seniors, whose time is too valuable to notice them as they happen, as well as to inform the Freshman as to what is happening in Senior Heaven.

H. S. Orchestra The orchestra this year was a success. It played for our dances giving them pep beyond reach of professionals. It gave added attraction to the basketball games by holding dances afterwards. Thus it seems the merit of our orchestra is well known. It accompanied our dramatic entertainments adding greatly to them. The orchestra this year found an able substitute for Audrey Hen-nen in Adele Stoppenbach. Adele plays wonderfully and will, no doubt, play for .1. H. S. four years as Audrey did. The members of the orchestra are: Adele Stoppenbach Mark Ricnrang_____ John Mattes_______ Merlin Rrose______ Evelyn Christians Lucille Behring --George Kroening . .. Piano Clarinet Clarinet .

His good-fellowship and his skillful directing of athletics have earned him the deep regard of every boy, who has been in any way associated with him. He has done wonders in athletic achievements with the material available and has restored the public interest in high school activities to its old-time basis. This interest has once more, placed the Athletic Association upon its own feet. The Class of t !):?:? sincerely hopes that Mr. Hager will remain on the faculty of the Jefferson High School and continue to develop young men into athletes as he lias done in the past three years. Records of great football and basketball men have been cited in previous annuals, and annuals of other schools, but we still claim a very unusual career for Kdwin Habareiuer. “Debby” has played both basketball and football on the regular teams since his Sophomore year. For both this season's basketball and football teams Debby was chosen Captain. For three years almost every gridiron contest found “Debby in the thick of the fight and playing in a very commendable and whole-hearted manner. Who made the touchdown?” Debby”, of course.” Speed, endurance, and pep have put “Debby on the pedestal. basketball, too. has found Debby” on the floor with a goodly quantity of his pep and ehdurance. When he did not make Hie baskets, he made way for them. All stars are not in the sky! When will HIS record be duplicated? PAGE FOHTYM.NE :jhs: To play or not to play: That is the question.

His former experience helped him in breaking up plays. He fought hard, and I lie spirit with which he did his work instilled pep into the rest of the learn. He easily outclassed his opponents, and deserves the honor of being one of the best linesmen ever produced in J. H. S. football. Mark Bienfang Bight Tackle “Markie” ' Weight 160 Mark, right tackle, was a hard man to keep out of plays, and was a strong defensive as well as offensive demon. He played an important part in every play, and his carrying the ball and passing were sensational. Because of the important part he played, lie was greatly missed when forced to quit because of injuries. He was a hard lighter, and will surely he missed next year. Eldon Wineland Bight Guard Fat” Weight 175 A huge hulk in the line. “Fat worried his opponents. He did his best at all times, and never complained. Owing to his size and strength, it was hard for the opposition to smash through his side of the line. The spirit in which he did his work, and his hard lighting made him a valuable asset. Louis Mistele Left Etui Louie” Weight 140 Louie” was a hard tackier, and reliable man on forward passes. He was a consistent player, drilled in all the rudiments and tricks of his position, and was a great hindrance to his opponents. This is “Louie's” last year playing for the Red and White. Merlin Brose Quarterback Sam” Weight 145 In his tlrst year of football, Sam'' played a good brand of ball, proving his ability at all times at one of the hardest positions on the team. As a drop kicker, none of his opponents could compare with him, which is a great credit to a tlrst year man. He was a good leader and kept up the pep of the team. “Sam” graduates this spring. George Kroening Bight End Abby” Weight 140 Playing a wing position. Abby was a whirlwind. Because of his speed, he broke up many end runs soon after they were started. He was a most efficient tackier, and had the crowd on their toes when “getting down under punts. Because of his splendid work, he was chosen Captain for next year.

He showed his lies! in the fort games when his speed enabled him to break up many end runs. Bob will be back next year and we expect still greater tilings of him. William Christians Guard and Tackle “Bill’ Weight 145 There was an abundance of line material, so it was not until the season was half over before “Bill” had a chance to show his wares. ben once in the game, lie showed the obi light which lias long made J. H. S. famous. He showed up well in the Fort games. This is “Bill's last year. Ralph Bienfang Center Bunt” Weight 140 He never kicked. When tilings went wrong lie worked so much harder. He was never known to make a bad pass at a critical moment. He played the game in a sportsmanlike manner, and did bis very best for J. H. S. at all limes. This is bis last year. Linus Betzold Full Back Peanuts” Weight 140 Being a new man. Het .ohl tilled bis position in an astonishing manner. When be took the ball it meant a move ahead. He played his best in the .Janesville game when be repeatedly plowed through the line for large gains. Great things can be expected of him next year. Ralph Schiefelbein Left Half Back Cork Weight 145 A new man at the game, “Cork” played well. He started the season in great fashion by recovering a fumble and scoring I lie first touchdown for J. H. S. Ibis year. He was in the game with heart and soul, and with the experience gained this year, should prove to be of much value in 1922. Curtis Sommerer Left Half Back “Curt” Weight 140 Dividing Hie other half position with Schiefelbein, “Curt bad the stuff in him to do bis part well. When necessary he did some fine work. With this year's experience and a little more aggressiveness, “Curt” should be a great help next year. PAGE FIFTY-FOLK PAGE FIFTY FIVE Review of the Season Coach Hager made his first call for football candidates on the opening day of school; about forty men responded to the call, ready to do their utmost to keep J. H. S. on the football map. There were six veterans back, and there was keen competition for the five remaining positions. In every game this year. Jefferson was outweighed at least ten pounds to the man, but the speed and determination of our warriors overthrew the opposition. There was a spirit of unity and co-operation among the players, and when one small or inexperienced man was ••ailed upon, he did all that he was capable of doing. Injuries were a great set hack, and they came at such opportune moments when they hit us the hardest. Brose was knocked unconscious in the Uconomowoc game, just when he was getting accustomed ti hi-position. In the Janesville game, Dabareiner. our best open field runner, was injured in the first play. He stayed in the game but was almost valueless, (iruenuert, our big tackle, had to retire from this game because of a deep cut over his eye. In our most important game, Bien-fang had the misfortune of twisting his knee, which ended his football career forJ. H. S. After two hard weeks of practice, the first game was played with Cambridge at the city park. Soon after the whistle blew. Schiefelbein recovered a fumble and scored our first touchdown. The hall was in Jefferson’s hands most of the time. Dabareiner made some spectacular runs, once going through the entire Cambridge team on the kickoff. Taking everything into consideration, the fellows played exceptionally well in their first game and romped off the field with a 34 to 7 victory. The next week Uconomowoc came down with a very strong and heavy team and things looked pretty bad. In Ibis game the fellows showed the old fight, and soon after the hall got in our hands. Daba-reiner circled left end for forty yards for a touchdown. The hall changed hands many times and both teams had numerous chances to score. Once Uconomowoc worked the hall up to the ten yard line where our line held and punted out of danger. When the final whistle blew we were on the long end of the score, 7 to 0. The following week Janesville was engaged. They were winning all their games, so a hat'd fight was expected. Jefferson again made a touchdown soon after the whistle blew and Dabareiner kicked goal. During the first three quarters, it was one of the hardest fights ever PA OK FIFTY-SIX seen on h Jefferson gridiron. At the end of the third quarter the score was 7 to in favor of JelTerson. Uur fellows were overweiglied fifteen pounds to the man. and the effect was evident in the last quarter when a bewildering series of forward passes netted Janesville three touchdowns. The score at tlie end of the game was 25 to 7. I'lie last two games of the season were with Fort Atkinson. Fort had a very strong team and succeeded in heating us twice. Although beaten, our fellows kept fighting and showed their stick-lo-it-ive-ness. All twenty-two men got a chance to play, and we hope that the experience gained may help them in 1922. The last Fort game ended the high school football career of eight seniors. May the following teams t� e successful, and keep up the high standard of Jefferson athletics. I'lie men listed below were loyal supporters and helped develop the team. They came out for practice every night and received many knocks. They all had a chance to play hut not long enough to receive the official play. All but two will he hack next year when they will get their chance.

Being a popular sport in J. H. S.. many candidates tried out for positions. After an elimination, by means of a class tournament, twelve men were selected for regular duty, while the remaining members were divided into two divisions. The quintet, Dabareiner, Brose, Bienfang, Mistele, and Schiefelbein, with the assistance of Kroening. Betzold, and Robisch, made the season a successful one. The team was very light, averaging only 147 pounds, hut being very fast, was able to put up a hard fight at all times. The short passing game developed by Coach Hager was responsible for the fast team work. The best showing of tlie team was on a large floor when the short passing game worked to perfection, and where weight was no hindrance. Sixteen games were played with the strongest teams in this section. and whether win or lose, the team put up a scrappy light. Defeating such teams as Edgerton, Whitewater City High. Cambridge, and Johnson Creek, and losing by very narrow margins to Whitewater Normal High, and Watertown, show the caliber of the team. The jinx trailed the team most of the games, and when scores were needed badly, the ball would roll around the rim and drop out. Perhaps the most disheartening game was with Whitewater Normal High, when in overtime play, they succeeded in caging two baskets. The strong Watertown team, with twelve straight victories played its hardest game at Jefferson, and our fellows succeeded in holding them to their lowest score during the entire season. Five of the Basket Ball J wearers, Dabareiner. Brose, Bienfang. Mistele. and Robisch graduate this spring. It sure is a fine record for the senior class, and it will he hard to fill the big gaps left open by the PAGE FIFTY-NINE graduation of these stars. May those remaining he successful in retaining the high standard of .1. H. S. basket hall, and add to the laurels of our Basket Ball History.

PAGE SIXTY r E= ' ' =1 ■---------- - ZZZ3 Track Last year (rack was revived and restored to the curriculum of sports at J. H. S. Mr. Maclnnis introduced the idea and proceeded to carry it out hy purchasing a complete line of equipment, lie coached the boys and he was well able to do it for he was a star track man at Lawrence during his attendance there. The boys were highly interested in the sport and after a certain degree of preparation and perfection they challenged Cambridge High School to a track meet. Cambridge has had track as a major sport for a great many years and this being our first year we were doubtful as to the outcome. Cambridge came over in autos well prepared for victory. The contest was held at the Fair Grounds. The events consisted of the javelin throw, hammer throw, discus throw, shot put, vault, broad jump, high jump, hundred yard dash, and the half mile sprint. The teams were well matched and the actual outcome was not to be hazarded until the end when it was announced that Jefferson had won. The athletes showed up very well in the different tests of strength, skill, and endurance; especially Bert Hilberts for Jefferson. His work in the high jump and broad jump was exceptional and his work may justly be considered remarkable. Having won this meet we entered the tournament at Madison. We showed up very well in many different events and the record that Bert set in the half mile was faster than that made by the winner in the Class A Tourney. Those who entered the tournaments were: Mark Bienfang Arthur Jalin Neil Blumenstein Norman Kobisch Bert Hilberts Merlin Seifert Inter-Class Tournament I lie basketball tournament was held at the beginning of the season, so as to find prospects for this year's high school team. The fellows played good hall during the tournament, which made a bright outlook for the basketball season. I lie schedule was so arranged that each team must meet every other team, and the teams with the highest percentage to play for the championship. The Seniors succeeded in winning all oT their first three games, and the Juniors had won two games, thus bringing these two teams together in the finals. I he freshmen and Sophomores were eliminated hy the upper cla- teams, the Sophomores winning third place by a win over the Freshmen. I he final game between the two rival class teams was very fast, but the Seniors held the upper hand at all times, and won the Championship 14 to If. The fellows showed their worth in this game and most of this year’s J. H. S. team came from these two classes. Seniors: Edwin Dabarciner, Merlin Brose, Mark Bienfang, Louis Mislele, Norman Robisch, William Christians. PAGE SIXTY-ONE PAGE SIXTY-TWO The School and the Year I In years come with their load of possibilities and they pass leaving a tale of possibilities realized and unrealized. So too. student generations enter, nourish for a time, and step out into the world of affairs. The year 1921-22 mjlus with the customary obligations. It also offered us its quota of possibilities for achievement of new successes. It has been the constant endeavor of teachers and of students alike to get the greatest possible returns for invested energy and effort. Although we could wish to have done many things better, we take pleasure in the fact that we have at least done our best and given our wholehearted support in what we have attempted. Athletic victories “in scores were not as frequent as last year. The graduation of nine letter men left a hole too large to till in one year. Hut the spirit was just as willing as ever and after all that is what counts. Our athletes gave some of the finest exhibitions of nerve and light that have ever been witnessed anywhere. Best of all they always played a clean, square game. The boys are real sportsmen—what more can one ask! Sickness played havoc with the faculty for a couple of months. Here again the students showed their school spirit in the way they cooperated to keep things running smoothly at all times. Working under various substitute teachers the pupils responded well and kept the standards high. Relative to the progress and development of the students, we find that the freshmen are just as “fresh the sophomores just as conceited, the juniors just as sporty, and the seniors just as dignified as in other years- -no more, no less. They are a good, wholesome bunch, with the usual share of frailties and frivolities, and a goodly share of virtues. Together they make a line student body, and they have done their best in adding another successful year to those passed into history. —Karl C. Maclnnis. Money Money is neither coin nor paper, it represents the industry of man. As a man toils, so should lie reap. A huge bank account is not a fit reward for years of weary labor. A wealthy man is one who surrounds himself with the luxuries and beauties of flu earth as he earns them. Naturally this is not a description of the well known drunken sailor; a comfortable maririn should be left to defray the unexpected. An immense will is a social evil. One who receives such has no thought of honest toil no matter how light it may be. He has not money, he has coin and paper. Without industry, it can be said, life is a complete failure. Hence a large will is a social evil. Often one wastes his youth in the ceaseless pursuit of money promising himself good times in his old age. After he has accumulated a great amount of money he deeply regrets that he did not play when he had tin opportunity. Now it is too late; he is old; play does not appeal to him. He has been deceived by money. He who gets the most from life is lie who wisely invests his money in the luxuries of life as he can afford them. He works and he is repaid. —R. B. PAGE SIXTY-THREE :jhs Springtime In I lie country of Akron II was getting very warm. As the forces of sweet spring made their advance. The grass was turning green. The air was fresh and clean As always; Mother Nature weaves a trance. Here lies a country town Looking dreamily down Upon a stream, which joins a deep blue lake. On its glassy surface now Can be seen an old red scow In which our hero calmly sits; awake. He is tall and broad and fair. He lias golden yellow hair, Which, of course, adds much beauty to his face. He has a graceful back. His slippers are quiet black. And his suit is trimmed witli very fancy lace. On a seat which is quiet dry Sits a lady who seems shy Of this fair, lanky hero of her town. She is graceful and is fair. She seems free from any care, And her hair is of a beautiful dark brown. It is known their love is sound To the people living round, And they say that they're together everywhere. There never was a sight On any Sunday night More pleasing to the eye than this tine pair. They’re engaged to be married. Now why they have tarried Can be seen so very, very plain. When the flowers are the best. And the birds have built their nests; They set sail out upon life’s main. They will not even falter As they march up to the altar Where they will be united; man and wife, Then taking hold her arm They will ride back to his farm To cut their wedding cake with a golden knife.

Then we played mumble-de-peg until I became hungry (which wasn't very long) and I went into the house and got some cookies. We went down cellar to get cooled off and to see if we could llnd anything to do. Pretty soon we found Ralph and asked him if lie would go down to the sand-bar with us. He said he would, so we went down there. When we arrived there we undressed and went inlo the water. It wasn’t very cold but cool enough to make us comfortable. When we ran in the water, at our left there was a great deal of splashing. We payed no attention to it but when we were coming out in that same place there was a medium sized carp. We decided to try to capture it so we went up on the hank where there was a box with the top and one side off. We were going to put the box over the fish and then catch him. Mark liienfang. Age In.

In my mind’s eye I saw the procession, Hrsl the minister, then the (lower Kiris, then the cotlln followed by the mourners. Do you wonder why I said that, instead of seeing the funeral procession when I heard the music? Yes, I see you have guessed. 1 was in the cotlln. My thoughts were in a whirlwind. 1 couldn't move and yet the thought of being buried alive completely overwhelmed me. Can you imagine my stale of mind? Can you imagine the horror of it all? I tried to move my lips and cry out but I could not. I attempted to lift an arm to let people know I was still among the living not the dead, but it was all in vain. I could have wept but my eyes were as dry as my parched throat. I tried to open my eyes but they refused to obey my summons. Over and over I reviewed the events of the last few days. When I lirsi became conscious and found myself in my coffin too weak to flicker an eyelid. I thought it must all be a horrible dream and yet I knew it wasn’t. I was conscious occasionally of the minister’s voice as it rose and fell, but I was too busy with my own thoughts to care what he said. I could only think. “A few more minutes and I'll be buried alive.” I shuddered mentally. I couldn't physically. Finally, 1 tried to reason. I would try to muster all my strength and as the people marched around to see me I would endeavor to flicker an eyelid, 1 hoped against hope in my extreme agony that I would be able to attract someone's attention. Soon I heard a general move and realized that now was my time. Again and again I tried to open my eyes and finally, I fell my eyelid flicker. I waited anxiously. I heard a little girl say, “Mother she moved an eyelid.” “Hush,” was the response “You only thought so.” Can you imagine the extreme horror and despair of that moment. 1 realized that the procession was drawing to an end. I thought I felt my heart begin to beat wildly and I felt cold beads of perspiration gather upon my forehead. Would the undertaker see it? I thought. 1 felt someone bending over me gazing closely at me. I instinctively fell that it was the undertaker. He felt of my forehead. He turned away and I heard him say, “She is alive.” For a moment there was dead silence, then an audible gasp. The following events were so rapid ami confusing that I do not remember them distinctly, but to-day 1 still live and the memory of that funeral will ever haunt me. —Lydia (ioerz.

(K) A suitably inscribed bronze medal and a ten dollar gold piece to the high school boy ranking first in ' All-around attainment.” (L) A suitably inscribed bronze medal and a ten dollar gold piece to the high school girl ranking first in all around attainment.” There is a motive back of the giving of these awards that tends to raise the standard of our high school. It makes the students work harder in their studies and consequently brings up the standard of the school as a whole. In athletics the boys will work hard to receive the offered awards and thus the teams are of the best. The present students feel very proud of the Alumni. They have the time to look forward to when they will be members of the Alumni Association and will feel proud to belong. Since the practice of awarding students for partaking in school activities and for ranking high in scholarship, is comparatively new, we reserve this space for those who received awards and honorable mention. Not only are the following receivers of awards for athletics, but for good qualities in all school activities. —E. W. PAtiE ElliHTY-EOl It 1HS] Those who received awards Iasi year are as follows: Fool hall Sweaters: Mark Hionfang Neil Blumrnslein Kdwin I ahari iner Raymond Frind F.dw in irupnnerl Basketball Jerseys: Mark Bienfang .Neil Hhimensli-in F.ilwin Dabareim-r Bert Hilberts lionrge Krorning W illiam Kicsling Ray iimnil banger Raymond Feind tier) Hilberts Louis Mislele Charles Shannon Arthur Yalta Kldon W’ineland William Kiesling Raymond I.anger Honorable Mention A large silver Loving Cup ' with liis name inseriheil thereon was awarded to Merlin Brose as the winner of the Stall Typing Contest.

This is something for which the school is proud. I'AHE EIOHTY-FIVE JHSj The School and the Alumni There is a feeling which mines to all alumni l good old J. H. S. which they could never know as students. A sort of longing conics upon theni. a desire to see and tread again on the old campus and walk about in the old familiar haunts of •those happy days at school. How often they allow their minds to leave the troubles and perplexities of business and wander back to fond memories of those never-to-be-for- otfen days. Nothing would please them more than an opportunity to clasp the hand of an old class-mate whom they haven't seen for years. It is this sentiment, this desire in the heart of every alumnus which may become (lie means of affecting a closer and more beneficial association between the school and its Alumni. There must be a time of the year at Christmas for instance— when many are in town, and when a good old reunion such as we used to have would arouse more interest and enthusiasm than any other thing. It would arouse an interest among many of those who have not stayed in Jefferson, and to whom the school days are nothing more than just a fond memory. We may send reports and requests for help, and our executive committees may drum their heads off for funds. Such a plan may work for a time but it never will retain interest enough to carry on the good work already laid out for many years. Let's give the Alumnus an opportunity to meet bis old class-mates, to visit the old place, and to show the student what it really means to be an Alunnms of the Jefferson High School. Financial help is necessary but first must come a closer connection, and a will and desire to boost. Let's not leave the Alumni support to a few local enthusiasts, but make it a boost from everywhere. Real Alumni support must come from everyone of I he old grads. A yearly reunion will bring that support. What think vou Old Timer, can we put it over? —Carl Seifert. The High School Graduate My subject. The High School (Iraduate. was assigned me without any qualifications. My high school days belong to the far past but there are some things 1 remember quite vividly. One is the feeling of enthusiasm with which I looked forward to what life had in store tor me in some chosen profession. Then, if ever, ones enthusiasm is at flood-tide and one is eager to train for that work which will bring him the most joy and usefulness. In this connection I am perhaps better able to speak of my own profession and recommend it to any who are interested. All graduates know what benefits are to be derived from a public library. Only a few may adopt library work as a profession but in one way or another it will be brought to the notice of all. Some may be on the board of library directors, or the city council and many will be taxpayers. who will lend their financial support to it as an institution. I should like to relate my experiences, not only to show that the library is a live force in our social life, but also that the life of a librarian is a busy one relieved of monotony by things, unique and unusual, day after day. This year my work as a children’s librarian is among the Slav races PAOK KIOHTY-SIX JHS which embody the Russian, Polish. Ukrainian, and Slovak people with a number of Greeks and Italians. Religions represented are the Polish Roman Catholic, the Greek Catholic, the Russian Orthodox, and the Greek Orthodox. A fifteen minute walk in any direction from the library would bring one to the limit of our territory. Though small in size it houses a vast number of people for there are 2600 children attending the one public school of the section and 1200 children in the Polish Roman Catholic school. Resides, there are the boys and girls who attend Junior and Senior High Schools and various parochial schools outside of this district. These are our patrons and when one considers the number of children with whom we have to deal, the poverty of many of the homes and the fact that English is spoken in few of flu homes, lie realizes that the library must act as a great factor in Americanization. A children's librarian in a large svstem has very little routine work, such as the work done at the charging desk, for her work is to get the children to read and enjoy reading. This she does in many ways. She can reach a large number of children by posting attractive bulletins of special kinds of books, such as Stories of the West, Heroes of Chivalry, Pirates. Rooks of Adventure, also lists suited to special grades. Children love to consult a list and then ask the “liberry teacher” for a title. Our schools require a great deal of home reading and we are kept busy trying to supply the demand for special books. Often a boy or girl is absolutely forced to take one id' the very best but not easily read books because the more popular books are out. Every children’s librarian does a great deal of personal work with the children and through her personal interest in flip child, she not only wins him as a friend but he is more apt to appreciate her judgment of a book. Often in filling requests, a librarian must use a great deal of ingenuity in interpreting the requests for: “Mr. Snub's Sisters (a written request) was “Mr. Stubbs Brother. “Under the Arctic Sun” turned out to be “Arctic Stowaways” for the boy had seen this book in a red cover with word Arctic under an illustration of the white rays of the sun. “The Widow and the Calico Boys” for “Widow O’Callaghan’s Roys.” “The Flossy Rabbit” was The Flopay Bunnies. A small, wee girl, when asked what she wanted, said she was looking for middle aged men Men of the Middle Ages). Another child said his teacher told him to get something about “Old Fellows.” After much questioning the librarian was told it was “his birthday” and as it happened to lie Longfellow's birthday, she finally said, “Oh you mean Longfellow.” ‘A cs. said the boy delightedly. “I didn’t quite understand the name.” In a district of this kind where the children have no books at home, their home school-work must necessarily be done at the library and night after night one sees the library full of children intent on their work and our reference collection sees good service. Story telling plays an important part in the library and two story hours were conducted this winter. On Friday afternoons a cycle story was told for the older children. The story for the little children was fold on Saturday morning and the attendance was from two to three hundred a morning. On story hour days crowds of children would be waiting for the library doors to tie opened. Who could help but be en- PAGE EIGHTY-SEVEN thusiastic with such n welcome— and then such perfect order when they rcai'h the story hour room! One could not wish for better behaved children than the Slav, none are more appreciative for little kindnesses and one never feels that a kindness extended will lead to familiarity nor will undue advantage he taken by the children. One Saturday about eleven o’clock a hoy rushed into the room to hear the stories, breathlessly In' asked. Are the stories over?” Yes.” the librarian said, They were.” and when she asked him why he had not come sooner, he replied that he could not as he had to scrub the floors for his mother. This child surely was not to tie disappointed, another story hour was arranged for his benefit and the children were told the reason. Is there not an almost boundless joy in incidents of this kind? The home visiting done by the children’s librarian gives one a wonderful insight into these children's lives. (lur home visiting is done for overdues. lost books, parents’ signatures and matter of discipline. This isiting is done after school when the children are at home, as they usually must act as interpreters. e are always treated courteously. Often we come across the most destitute cases, extreme poverty coupled with unlimited tilth. Not one thing in the house to make home pleasant for a hoy or gild. How can the library with its hooks, pictures, (lowers and bright lights help but be the big attraction for the neighborhood? It is the only glimpse of the really cultural side of life for these children. As a general thing the hoys and girls, until they become too Americanized are very little helpers in the household, for in many cases the mothers go out to work to help out the meager pittance earned by the father, or. as ipiite often this winter, the mothers are the sole providers as many men are without work. School visiting i- an interesting feature of the work and between the library and the schools, both public and parochial, the friendliest relations exist. The teachers and sisters are constantly sending lor books and they encourage the children to use the library. The librarian also works in conjunction with the Settlement House of the district in looking up plays, books on handiwork, making lists of books- all done to get a better understanding of the children of the neighborhood. Through all this the people of the district begin to recognize the librarian and feel she is an interested member of the community. She even feels it her tintv to attend Juvenile Court, not only to become acquainted with the method of procedure but to find what are the causes and results of delinquency. So. you see. a librarian is not only handing out books! Sometimes, when night after night she has tried to satisfy the demands of the children for books, lliat are never in. with something just as interesting”, and looked up one thousand and one reference questions; and stamped innumerable pictures culled from old magazines to tie used by the children in their project work at school: and told this group to be a little more quiet: and that boy to wash his hands; and so on ad infinitum.— yes. sometimes she is quite ready to close the door on the day's work and leave a few things for the morrow. Then with the morrow comes renewed enthusiasm and she goes back with the happy leeling that tiers is a delightful profession and she is ready and eager to meet the problems of the coining day.
