The Class of '31 wishes to express its grat- itude to Doctor A. L. Kellogg for the many things he has done during its sojourn here to make its school career more pleasant and ad- vantageous, and to the members of the faculty who have so kindly advised it. 12112014 inioiclicrioitlioloioit is in The Kelloggian MAIN ENTRANCE TE!

The class officers: Kenneth Davis, president, William Munn, vice-presidentg Eleanor Kellogg, secretary, and Bert Santora, treasurer, were elected at an early meeting. Upon the departure of Kenneth Davis, the vice-president, William Munn, became president. The year has been one of success for the Seniors and one of honor to the school. Some of the activities participated in with the hearty cooperation of the members are: a magazine contest, a lecture by Gray Macclintock, a liquid air demonstration, the Senior entertainment and this book, the second issue of The Kelloggianf' During the Easter vacation, the class ventured out to see and to learn. The principal points visited were Albany, Washington, D. C., Philadelphia and New York City. This adventure was made possible because of the kind- ness and interest of Doctor Abraham L. Kellogg. Now that commencement has been reached, we must leave this coveted position as Seniors to our successors. Fondly do we hope long to be cherished in memory by the Kelloggians.

Kellogg High School last year was formed an asso- ciation known as The Student Association of the Abraham L. Kellogg High School. The second year of the Association has been very successful under the leadership of its president, Carlton Chambers. Eleanor Kellogg has served two years as secretary for the organization. Other oflicers were: treasurer, Harry Lentg vice-president, William Munn, critic for two years, Miss Hall, and advisor for two years, Principal Roblee. This Association has as its object the improvement of the Abraham L. Kellogg High School. Students in Junior and Senior High School are eligible to membership in the Association under the conditions provided for in the constitution. The greater part of the executive work of the organization is carried on by the standing committees, namely: appointment committee, program com- mittee, athletic committee, music committee, entertainment committee and publicity committee. The Association also sponsors a point system for awarding school honor emblems for participation not only in athletics but also in the other extra- curricular activities. Meetings are held weekly in the auditorium. Dare Now to Win The Kelloggian f'Dare Now to Win The Kelloggian IQ ATHLETICS . Athletics is an important factor in school life and, while the aim in ath- letics in the Abraham L. Kellogg High School is not to develop outstanding athletes but to aid and advance the pupils in physical and social development, it is proud of its record and sportsmanship in football, basketball and baseball. The football squad of twenty-two members showed great eagerness and zeal under the instruction of Coach Roblee. It competed with seven other schools in this sport, and the boys did good work for a Hrst year team, many of whom had never played football before. At the end of the season the same number of men were on the squad as at the beginning. In basketball the boys played hard and concluded a successful season under the leadership of Coach Roblee. A superior quality of sportsmanship was shown by all players. With spring came the call for baseball, the great outdoor game. In this sport the boys played a fast, clean game with Coach Sinstack as director, and proved themselves superior to the majority of their opponents, ending the season with a record worthy of any high school. Abraham L. Kellogg High School will have membership again in the New York State Public High Schools Athletic Association, next year. Fifteen boys from Senior High School attended and participated in the Campus Day and Track Meet held at Troy by R. P. I. in May. In addition to these sports, there are daily recreation periods for boys and girls not members of regular teams, when all pupils have opportunity to secure the benefits of physical recreation.

Numbers by the Glee Club are given at various entertainments through- out the year, such as, the Christmas pageant, the senior entertainment and class night program. The Glee Club has a good reputation, and each mem- ber tries to further this standing. A Glee Club letter is awarded to each individual who isgworthy of such emblem, and to receive this he must pass certain qualifications. In the school year of 1930-1931 thirty-four Glee Club letters were awarded to the following: Bass Bari tone A I to Jaclc Tweedie Harvey Mugglin Second Tenor Ernest Mugglin Hilton Hoyt Soprano Doris Barnhart Gussie Osterhout Leona Johnson Esther Fitch Georgene Smith Edna Reynolds Harry Lent Ralph Huyck First Tenor Walter Hoyt Royal Gifford Caroline Wright Katherine Hazlett Wilma Hoyt Georgine Weatherby Phyllis Wilson Martha Lord Minnie Bechtel Florence Pinney Marion Truscott Helen Delamarter Helen Hogoboom Ida Lord Anita Shaver Eleanor Barlow Dorothy Davidson Flora Clark Ruth Alice Meyers Eleanor Kellogg Ruth Decker Louise Eichler 1 ' UREHEETRA The orchestra was organized at the first of the school year with Mrs. -Roblee as director. By her untiring efforts it has accomplished much. Prac- tice hasbeenheld on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, it has played for Student Association meetings on Fridays as well as at games and other public entertainments, lar speaking contest and senior entertainment. Since it will have the majority of its members baclc next year, it anticipates a bright future.

In phrasing, homemaking 1 covers food and nutrition, and homemaking 2 covers textiles and clothing. I-lomemaking 1 had charge of the cafeteria work, which gained for them practical experience in planning, preparing, and serving nutritious lunches to those who were unable to return to their homes for the noon lunch. The cafeteria was beneficial to the school from the health standpoint, because the food that was served contained the required amount of nutrition necessary for the body. In homemaking 2, the textiles and clothing are taken up. This gives the pupil the idea of the cost of the material and the expenses in dress making. The type of dresses studied con- sisted of sport, afternoon and school. In homemaking 5 and 7, the work covers interior decorating and house- hold management. The project in interior decoration was the redecorating of the chairs and table of the Community House, also of pictures and other objectives to make it seem more attractive and more homelike. The class enjoyed a trip to Oneonta, where they visited the art work of Hartwick College. The household management generally covers the expenses, budgets, man- aging of the home and also a study of electrical appliances. In connection with this last work, the class visited the Associated Gas and Electric Company of Oneonta, where they were shown many helpful demonstrations in the work- ing of electrical equipment. Next year there will be taught in the school seventh and eighth grade homemaking, and homemaking 1 and 2, as well as homemaking 3 and 4. Pk lk Pk Pk Dk GIRLS' 4-H CLUB Girls' 4-H Club work has been under the direction of Miss Bowell. Three classes have been conducted each week in elementary foods, in advanced foods and in homemaking, respectively, with groups according to age and experience. Several of the older girls competed in the county singing contest at Delhi. wk 1: 4: is wk BUYS' 4-H ELLIE The course of the Boys' 4-H Club this year was a thorough study of the single cylinder gas engine. Under the direction of Mr. Hoyt, the local leader, and Mr. Arnold of Cornell University, the class had instruction in the mechanism of gas and steam engines. A single cylinder gas engine was furnished by a member of the club. This was taken apart and studied very thoroughly. The majority of the club finished the course with exceptionally high marks and considered the course entirely worth while. The Hill Toppers' 4-H Club was organized in December at South Franklin under the leadership of Clifford Davidson. The officers of that club are as follows: president, Frederick Ehrhardg vice-president, Ernest Davieg secretary, Vanley Blackmang and treasurer, Reed Davidson. ' Some of the projects undertaken are gardening, poultry husbandry, for- estry and potato raising. Dare Now to Win The Kelloggian 27 ENl3Ll5l'l The regular courses of high school English as presented by the state syl- labus are given, next year a class in journalism is to be added. Some of the projects which have had their origin in regular work offered have been: a health campaign in hrst year class to improve personal appear- ance, correlated with oral Englishg writing of pupils' own autobiographies in second year class, correlated with literature studies, a vocational project to investigate requirements to enter certain fields of work in third year class, correlated with the study and practice of writing business letters, and the indexing of the catalogs and pamphlets so collected, correlated with library work, presentation of two one-act plays at the senior entertainment by fourth year class, correlated with study of modern drama. English classes devoted one period weekly to library work, including not only reading of various types of literature but also a study of parts of a book, reference works, cataloging of books, arrangement on shelves, checking in and out of books and library courtesy. Ll13 RA RY It has been the object of the Library Club to improve the library. Miss Parks, supervisor of school libraries, State Department of Educa- tion, aided in solving several of the problems confronting the Club, such as, discarding undesirable books and making out a list of books that are required in a high school library. This list consisted of nearly two hundred and fifty books. Of this number sixty-five were fiction books. The rest were divided into various groups for use in the different departments of high school work. The magazine and newspaper department, which now includes a wide variety in material offered, was moved to the present reference room, a former class room in the school building, so that students might obtain information on current topics. Here are found the Encyclopedia B1:itannica , consisting of twenty-four volumes, The World Book set, Compton's Pictured Ency- clopedia and several other standard reference works. It is the aim of the school librarian and club leader to organize a class at the beginning of the next school year and to have regular classes in library work, so that all may have a more comprehensive knowledge of library work than can be offered advantageously in English courses. Dare Now to Win The Kelloggian 20 DRAWING The class in Elementary Design has in addition to doing the work re- quired by the syllabus helped in other work. The Design Class made posters both for the senior entertainment in May and for the class night exercises. The class further decorated the auditorium for class night exercises, thus showing that it had gained a good appreciation of the art principles as applied to practical uses. ar Sk ak if wk MATHEMATICS Elementary algebra, geometry, intermediate algebra and commercial arith- metic have been offered this year in the mathematics department. Mathemat- ics department has been outstanding in two respects: in successful completion of courses studied by pupils, and in the interest and appreciation of mathe- matics manifested by the classes. lklkbkbklk SCIENCE Among sciences offered by this department during the year have been biology, physics and economic geography. Valuable worlc, as an outgrowth of the science classes, has been accomplished for the school in wiring for and installing electric bells on the lower floor of the building, and in altering and improving the lighting effects of the stage in the auditorium. lkvkvkfkek HISTCRY Courses in American history, modern world history and civics have been taught this year. Large registration in all history courses offered speaks for the intelligent consideration given by the school and its students to a most important phase of preparation for helpful citizenship. Skfklkekrk FEIREIEN LANGUAGES Courses in French and Latin are offered, but neither is compulsory for students to earn a diploma. Vitalized work in French has been achieved by dramatization of French ,school room scenes and by actual correspondence with French boys and girls attending school at Amiens, France. Appreciation of French music has come through singing Yule Tide carols, the national anthem of France, rounds and other characteristic songs. Beginning Latin has had a new appeal to pupils through application of modern class room theories and practices. Approach is made to the language by conversation about articles and experiences within the pupils' own sphere. Text books are not used for several weeks. Dare Now to Win The Kelloggian 31 ELEMENTARY DEPARTMENT The first and second grade pupils are lively youngsters who like to be doing something every minute. In the winter and spring, the children made useful and ornamental ob- jects during their play hour. Some of the objects so made were clay models and jointed animals. They made doll furniture from match boxes, which consisted mainly of chairs and tables, along with cradles made from oatmeal boxes. During the noon hour, they have had some happy surprises in being pre- sented with materials for raffia work, framing small pictures, and other indus- trial art work. The first and second grades are made enjoyable to little children at the same time they are being instructed. This creates a greater desire to go to school and makes the children more faithful in their studies. The third and fourth grades had as their chief project this year one in history, concerned with Greek and other early history. They studied dwellings and modes of life of the cave man, the tree dwellers, lake dwellers and desert nomads. They presented a play taken from Greek myths. A dramatization of the lives of Solomon and David was worked out, and also the life and death of Socrates. In geography, the third and fourth grades studied about the products obtained on a farm and also farm life and the character of people in other lands. Some of their other projects were on desert life and poster work on the far north. Visual instruction and a sand table have been important factors in this work. ' The fifth and sixth grades carried out various projects. In geography, they had projects on Japan, Alaska and life of Eskimos, and a product map of the United States. They made booklets for America and Africa, and an- other booklet, which was known as The Fifth and Sixth Grade Geography. As they studied the different countries, they outlined their work and illustrated it with pictures. In history, the sixth grade children studied colonial history and wrote diaries the same as Columbus or the founders of one of the colonies would have written a diary. In English, the fifth andlsixth grades studied dramatization of plays and had projects on Robin Hood, Robinson Crusoe and King Arthur. Other projects were the making of hot dish mats, rubber toys and bind- ing of books. With money earned by articles sold, a large flag was purchased by these grades for their class room.
