My commission expires at the inal close of the winter of 1931. 1 2 F I I r 5 J CLASS PROPHECY This would happen to me, propeller broken, and out here on the transfAtlantic landing pier number four without anything to do. Hey! Mister! Can you help me out? Well, am I see' ing things! Tey Lybarger, tell me about the gang while your fixing the plane. Well, Louie, old boy, you won't have to look far to find a lot of the old gang. Mil- bourn, Snellenberger, and Van Wagner are mechanics right here on the pier. See that plane over there with the nurses getting out, that's Zylpha Lehner's ship, she is taking the Kitchen sis' ters, Cora Koon, and Emily Evers to Europe. Say, what's this I hear about tunneling under the Atlantic? Oh, that project is bcing backed by the money of Lower, Imes, and Rimmell, and the work will be done by the Frederick, Harding, Stoeckley Engineering Company. Their secretaries, who by the way are Glendys Bucher, ,lean Young, and Helen Louise Butz, will have to do their work in ofiices under the ocean. That reminds me I heard that Bill Needham and Robert Klinkenberg are making good as deep sea divers. L'Say, this is a good looking plane you have. From the Ley Aircraft Company, isn't it? Yes, notice the wings, they were designed by Bob Macpherson. I have all the latest equipment too, television and everything. Let's see what's going on at Walt Whitemans show. Aha! Vaudeville stunt, say, isn't that Geraldine Swihart on the end. There's Leonelle Portner, and Caroline Parker. Say, this is great sport, let's see what is going on down at the high school. Ten minutes to play in the Fort Wayne'Kendallville game. Someone hurt! There goes Doc. Newnam with a towel and bottle of water, Do you catch that yell? Cass! Cass! Cass! Maurice's son, no doubt, he married Patsy Bruner, didn't he? Yes, watch those fellows play. Hippenhammer, surely makes some coach for the Pink Angels! Well, I better get back to work. Hey, Basil come over and help me. What are you reading there? The Tri'Monthly Farm Blatter. Fred and Ruth Brady send every issue to me. You know I always did think a lot of Ruth Weil, but when I bought an auto and threw away my bicycle, she turned me flat. Any news of the old crowd? Yes, Mrs. Paul Henney is very ill. That's Margaret Dicken isn't it? 'iYes, they live in their Forest Reserve Building near South Milford. Paul isn't kept very busy because there are no forests within ten miles. Here's another item, Mrs. Arlene Mertz entertained the Sewing Club at her home west of Kendallville. Among the guests I see the names of lxiiss Katherine Kirkdorfer, teacher of music in the South Milford schools. Miss Lorraine Beiglit, leader of the 4fH Club. Mrs. Muriel Bart' lett, wife of Professor L. E, Bartlett, of Mount Holyoke, and Mrs. Juanita Turnipseedf' Who is that? Why, didn't you know, Juanita is washing dishes, and taking care of the kids on a farm northwest of Kendallvillef' Miss Alberta Barber, veterinary surgeon, from the famous Shroyer, Longyear, and Freshe, Model Farm Specialists, addressed the Farmers Chicken Union. L'Here's an interesting item, Ruth Bolton's new theater at Lisbon, will show at its opening the sensational picture, Red Heads are Best, featuring Bessie Pope. The play was written by Ernestine Keller and directed by Mary Helen Vv'illy. Well, if you've finished with my place now I'll have to go. Too bad you fellows can't come to the class reunion tomorrow at the Cochran Million Dollar Mansion in Sunnyside. I am going to pick up Merritt Diggens at his Sugar Bowl, H. S. Grocery store. I meant to take Paul Raub along too, but he can't go because he has an important trial on. He is attorney for Elinor Wehmeyer who is sueing Floyd Henry for breach of promise. You know the Rev. Harold Seidel and Gov. Georgiana Deucrling, who was unable to pick a man from the vast assortment of men and decided to do a man's work, are the speakers for the evening. Music will be furnished by the Spinster Quartet made up of Ruth Reamer, Anna Nesbitt, June Rickett, and Ruth Smith. If I hear anymore news, I'll stop on the way back, so long.

We have had some experiences that have meant a great deal to us. On the other hand, perhaps they have been a detriment to our academic work. It is a great problem to solve. When one is in school it is hard for him to know whether to take part in outside activities, and if he decides to join a club it is diflicult to know which to choose. Another item is to know when to stop choosing. School studies if gotten properly take some time. Of course it varies with the student. Some may have a greater amount of time than others, and these will want to take part in some activity, as it seems the young people of today have to be moving. This has its disadvantages. The student that takes part in outside activities is gaining, where perhaps he would not with just his studies. He will become a better leader, and make more friends, but will have to work harder to compete with his fellow classmates. Many times he will have to sacrifice some- thing he would much rather do, but if he is dependable and trustworthy he will do what he has set out to do, and nine times out of ten he will accomplish his aim. If this person is one who is proud of his school, he will try all the harder to make school life happier for all the students. Of course there is always the knocker, who is forever and always talking about how dead the school is. If this person would just loosen up a little bit, and remember the more he puts into a thing the more he will gain, He would be much better off. There is a certain amount of work that must be done in every school, and everyone should do his part. There was once an individual in high school, who never took part in an ac' tivity: he just sat around and watched the rest work. He laughed at the other students while they were working, and said he could enjoy himself while the others worked for someone else. If all the students had as much ambition as this student, we would certainly have a poor school. It is not well to load up with too many outside activities, so that your grades will suffer. There is yet another side to this. Health! Your health comes first. Granted that there is no physical handicap, this, then. a high school should do for us. Firstglt should bring us in contact with the great minds of the past from Plato to Emerf son, from Homer to Tennyson, such literature will develop the mind and will make us better Htted for life's work. , Second-lt should bring us face to face with the great problems of nature, so that we may be less superstitious and more understanding of nature's laws. Third-Our High School will bring us in contact with many people who will strengthen and influence. The teachers should be the most ideal persons in the community: they will want to guide us to higher ideals. Wherever we are in school there will be someone who will help us, and therefore we shall be repaid for our sacrifices. Fourth-The association with fellow students cannot be over estimated. Along the way we may meet some person that will be a detriment to the school. The average student comes to High School for a purpose and from this student usually we gain. As students we are helping to mold some other students character and life. Fifth-ln High School the individuality of youth is intensified. He finds what his abilities are. Although in some instance, uniformity in studying is enforced, yet individuality will burst forth and the student will End himself. If a school organization or club aids us in any one of the five ways, we should embrace it as an opportunity to benefit ourselves, if not, we should confine ourselves to the study of a few subjects that we shall master. Page 37 If ones health fails, his education will do him little good. The majority of students will be better satisfied with themselves, if they show some school spirit, and they will gain more for themselves. In fact it will do them some good to assume a responsibility once in a while. The people who always dodge responsibility never find out just how much they can do, and therefore never get very far. OPPORTUNITIES OFFERED IN EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES IN THE KENDALLVILLE HIGH SCHOOL There are many activities besides the regular curriculum in which a student may particif pate. Clubs which may lead the student to choose his vocation, and guide him to higher ideals. Some students may get more enjoyment out of one club than anotherg therefore this club is the one for him to select, for he can put forth his best efforts for making that club a success. The Art Club was organized several years ago for the purpose of studying the works of famous artists. The members do pencil sketching, painting, and some project work. Dramatics have been very carefuly studied in the Wig and Paint Club. Plays have been read and discussed and several have been presented. This work in dramatics is of great benefit to those who take part in class plays later. This year much time has been devoted to pantomines, readings, and puppet shows. The Madrigal Club, organized last year, has played an important part in school life. The girls are very enthusiastic about the work and have shown great progress. They participate in many programs and are receiving very good training in music appreciation. The Boys Glee Club is an outstanding organization in furthering music in the school. The boys receive a great amount of enjoyment and experience. The Commercial Club is open to those taking commercial work in high school, and its programs are well worthwhile. The members receive information concerning professional work and the opportunities and possibilities of the business world. The Girl Reserve has instilled higher ideals in the lives of the girls. Those who belong are better able to face problems. In previous years the Hi-Y has been one of the most active clubs, and its influence has been a great benefit to our high school boys. Unfortunately this club was not organized during the present year. In Girls Athletics two clubs were organized, the Hiking Club and Volley Ball Club. The purpose of these organizations was to furnish recreational activity and pleasure. The Boys Athletics are not organized into clubs, but their purpose is to further clean sportsmanship, healthful training, and wholesome recreation. The students have responded to the work of each club in a very admirable way, and each has proven beneficial in its work. -Ruth R.

This was the clever story of a wealthy young doctor. more interested in golf than his practice. whose first patient is a lovesick young man. Doctor Sumner, through his knowledge of love, proceeds to treat Budd NVoodhridge, only to find that his fine theories come hack like a hoomerang to strike him. when he falls in love with Miss Xelva. his pretty young nurse. The parts were cleverly acted. due to the splendid coaching of Miss Eva Rohertson. The stage scenery was quite unusual. two acts taking place in Dr. Sum' ner's office.

Sherman was a great success. Each player was consistent in part and artistically dressed throughout the performance. lvlr' King, the much imposed upon supporter of the entire household, fell victim to a plot which caused his departure for South America. Dr. Delemater, influenced by the attractive Eva, completely convinced Mr, King that he was a very sick man and needed a vacation. The carefully planned life of the selfish family was completely ruined when Adam Smith, Mr. King's business manager, was left in charge. Adam had beautiful and romantic visions of a home life and finding it quite different, endeavored to reform the entire household. Conf sequently, he planned a fake financial ruin and robbery that the family should be compelled to earn a living. The plan was perfect. The group moved to a chicken farm in New Jersey and turned domestic. Julie, Mr. Kings elder daughter, who had been completely infatuated in social obligations, raised bees. Uncle Horace, long troubled with insomnia, forgot his ailments and sold insurance. Clinton DeWitt, Julie's lazy husband, turned traveling salesman, and Aunt Abby married a wealthy widower afflicted with gout and who wasn't expected to live long. When Mr, King came home, he found his family at the heighth of content' ment. In fact they seemed to enjoy the experience and were grateful to Adam for his ideas. 'E 2. Adam and Eva were in love and the romance was favored by the entire fam' ily. Although the play closes at this point, there is no doubt but what they lived happily ever after. Page 41 Z .

The first semester it has rather a hard struggle, and if you attended last years Commencement you probably could guess why. A large group of outstanding singers among the boys were graduated, and the group called the Senior Boys Clee Club sang a group of numbers at the Commencement. They had been members of extraordinary leadership and have been missed greatly. The second semester the boys came into their stride and now the Glee Club is on the upward trend again. The boys will take part in many of this sen1ester's ac' tivities, including a chapel program and possibly a minstrel if the music activities are not too complicated. The Boys Clee Club members are chosen from the High School Chorus and a K. H. S. Boys Quartet will be organized this semester. These will be outstanding members of the Clee Club and it is hoped that a K. H. S. male quartet may become a permanent part of the Clee Club, possibly being chosen by contest. Members of the Boys Glee Club took prominent parts in the operetta Pocaf hantas last year, and will sing at the Baccalaureate and Commencement programs. and the annual spring concert.

Any student who has had one semester of Art is eligible for membership. Meetings are held twice each month. At these meetings various phases of art study are enjoyed. Among them have been reports on a number of Master-pieces in painting, the Chicago Art Institute, and demonstrations. One especially interesting demonstration was Batik Processes, which showed various ways of making batik. It was presented by Miss Gretta Fullerton. Another demonstration was Spray dye' ing. l ' itil Before Christmas the Art Club voted to devote three meetings to repainting old toys. These toys, donated by people who were interested, were refinished for childrens' gifts, and given to them at the Girl Reserve Christmas Party- The Art Club hopes to make this annual contribution of service. During the last semester a puppet show, 'kjack and the Beanstalk made and presented by Iris Kitchen and Arthur Stockton, was much enjoyed at one of the club meetings. In October the Art Club members entertained the new members with a Graveyard Party, The room was transformed into a ghastly graveyard by paper tombstones, ghosts, and very dim lights. After initiation, grave fortunes were foundg and refreshments were served from the tomb 1 , which was found not to be a tomb at all after the paper door had been torn away. Other interesting and good times are planned for this semester. These include a picnic for the closing meeting. Page 48 First Row---Katherine Kirl-cdorler. Alherta Runge. .lo-ephine Fisk.

JFOREWORD As we look back over our high school days the time seems all too short. We are cori- fronted by the memories of the many friend- ships we have made and are soon to leave, of the games won and lost, of the honors re- ceived, of the social activities, and of the teachers who have so kindly helped us to higher achievement. As we are now to go our separate ways, we have compiled this book to remind us of our happy school days.

Good English posters and projects are also J lsgf fHA'L'fl'fTf55 made to portray the use of good Eng- wurr lish, and numerous speeches are givf en. The various pieces of work are judged and prizes are awarded. Much time is given over to this week hy hoth teachers and students in an eff fort to promote the use of better English and in past years it has prov' ed very satisfactory. , Y Page 5 5 FOREST TRAGEDIES OF A WINTER NIGHT It was one of those bitter cold moonlight nights of the Canadian winters. A silent shadow swiftly crossed a small patch of snow which was beautifully illuminated by the moonlight, streaming through the pine trees. The possessor of this silent shadf ow was a great white owl. As this feathered native of the forest glided softly across the moonlit space, he suddenly darted noiselessly to the earth. The object of this meteorflike plunge was a small wood mouse, scampering to his secret passageways. Though the mouse was very quick in trying to escape, the owl's lightningflike talons were swifter. With a piercing squeal the tiny creature died in the death grip of those awful, yellow talons. Swiftly old Snowy, for he was a snowy owl, flew to the largest of the neigh- boring pine trees. There he perched in the thickest branches to devour his small morf sel of yet warm mouse meat. He actually swallowed the mouse whole. This tiny bit of food served only to whet old Snowy's voracious appetite, so he wisely spread his wings, those broad soft feathered pinions, and set sail in quest of other prey. This particular winter had been very cold and snowy, so in consequence food was very scarce in the forests. The animals of prey, driven by hunger, hunted almost continually. It was only by constant vigilance that they managed to secure enough food to exist. These circumstances made hunting a little easier for the white owl be' cause when the smaller animals were hunting, hc could detect their movements more readily. Snowy had settled down upon a large tree near a frozen stream to wait for small creatures to appear. Occasionally he emitted a series of long, loud, hair'raising hoots in order to frighten the small hunters nearby so that he could discover them by their movements, as they ran to hiding places. Finally a muskrat, dragging a small perch, scampered along the shore to his entrance in the bank. With a swoop the great owl descended upon the unwaiy muskrat. This elusive little animal dropped his prize, the Hsh, and squirmed out of the owl's first grasp. The owl, however, was not to be daunted, for he made a quick thrust with his formidable yellow beak, thus crippling one of the muskrat's hind legs. Then Snowy pounced upon him with both talons. The rat, finding himself caught, determined to fight for his life. He tore savagely at the owl's breast with teeth and claws. His only result was a mouthful of feathers, for he did no harm to the owl. The owl soon dispatched him with a sharp blow from that yellow beak. With a low cry, the brave little inuskrat expired though he had fought valiantly for his life. Then the owl, with a fish in one talon and the muskrat in the other, flew off to a nearby tree- There he sat and blinked while he tore savagely at the rat and ate it ravenously. Then he ate the fish, thus completing his second course, When he had wiped his bloody beak upon the tree trunk, he flew quietly to a meadow which was surrounded by forests. Snowy flew round and round, always searching for some slight movement which might betray the presence of a mouse or rabbit. Finally his watchfulness was rewarded, for he saw a mouse. This mouse, bolder than his fellows, had ventured out of the tunnels in the snow. Softly the old owl volplaned swiftly downward to catch this mouse. The cunning little field mouse foiled the plan by suddenly doubling back and darting into the tunnel from which he had come. Thus it happened that the angry owl found only a lump of snow in his claws where he had expected to End a vsiaiini little mouse. So with an angry cry he sailed upward and away over the grassy g a ' e. Snowy continued to fly stealthily over the field, but still he hooted at intervals. When he had reached the edge of the meadow he saw a patch of young tree shoots and briars. .Over this he sailed round and round, expecting to see a cotton tail. just after one of those formidable hoots, a nervous little rabbit jumped up from his hiding Page 56 place, safe in the briars. He hopped swiftly over toward his burrow, near the young trees. The poor bunny had almost reached his hole, when like a white arrow, shot from the sky, the white owl dashed swiftly down upon him. With a desperate leap the poor cotton tail tried to gain his entrance, but all too late, for those great, dread' talons had already sunk deep into his back. With an agonized squeal he turned to face the owl, but only to receive a cruel blow from that awful beak Another blow, aimed directly for the neck, instantly killed the rabbit. With his lately caught prey, the owl sailed off triumphantly. He alit in another thick pine tree. There he devourf ed the rabbit in a like manner with which he had eaten his other prey. When he had Enished eating, he gave a contented cluck, for his meal had begun to appease his great hunger. Snowy again glided down from his tree and soared over to the stream. He flew upstream until he came to a beaver dam. When he reached the upper part of the pond, he circled softly above the banks in quest of other small animals to capture. Finally he spied a small otter playing along the stream under the shadow of the bank. With sudden swiftness, old Snowy sped downward, intending to kill the youngster and use him to complete his nocturnal meal. When the young otter realizf ed his danger, he slid quickly for a small hole in the ice, where he had been playing. just then the owl pounced upon him with great eagerness for he would just about satisfy that voracious appetite. Snowy caught him with both talons. The little otter had no chance to fight, for the owl held him with that death grip of the yellow talons about his slim body, and mercilessly squeezed the life out of him, The otter's death cry was a piercing shriek which shattered the silence of the night and warned all other creatures of the impending peril. The cry also reached the ears of a mother otter who was sleeping drowsily in her snug nest in the river bank. Snowy was about to spread his soft wings in flight when the small body with' in his great claws convulsed in such a manner as to merit a rain of blows from that yellow beak. At that instant a raving demon of a mother otter hurled herself down from her entrance in the bank, upon the unsuspecting owl. Snowy, surprised by the sudden assault, dropped his victim and tried to fly away. lt was too late, for the ravf ing otter was already upon his broad back. This little demon viciously used every tooth and claw, but only feathers rewarded her efforts. By this time the owl had ref gained his wits, so he began to iight in selffprotection. The otter clug to him in such a manner that he could not use his talons but his beak was soon bloody from the blows he gave the otter. The otter in turn was furiously clawing the feathers from the owl's breast and neck. Then the owl, sensing his peril started to fly away. Viciously he beat the otter with his wings and stabbed her with his beak. The valiant otter hung on desperately while the owl rose in the air. Thus the aerial battle continued for at least a minutc. At last the otter succeeded in clawing off enough feathers so that she could seriously wound the owl. With maniacal fury, she buried her teeth in the owl's throat and with her claws literally tore out his entrails. With a low, moaning croak, the great owl, giving way to death, slowly spread his broad wings and glided earthward. The otter still hung on and fought like a demon. ln the downward glide the owl suddenly collapsed and fell heavily to the ground, a crumpled mass of flesh and feathers. The otter, though stunned by the fall, managed to extricate herself from the owl's carcass. This courageous little ani' mal, though victor, had paid dearly for her victory. Her fur was in tatters and strips where the owl had torn so viciously. One eye had become a sightless and shapeless mass of pulp, and she had only two good legs upon which to limp slowly back to the entrance of her nest. Here she stood beside the dead body of her beloved baby and tenderly licked his wounds while she occasionally gave a low piteous whine in mournf ing for her beloved. -John Cassil. Page 77 HAPPINESS IS A BUTTERFLY Do you like the butterflies? When they stay just out of reach And dance here, and flutter there. Do you like butterflies? Happiness is a butterfly, A butterfly with golden wings Elusive, flitting to and frog I try to catch it, But it flutters out of my fingers As lightly as a leaf falls to the ground- It flies away and is goneg It is a phantom. Was it really there? Can I never have it for my own? Presently I forget it, And lo! while I dream Happiness comes back, Comes to me as softly As a summer dawn comes o'er the hilltop. Happiness is a butterfly, A butterfly with golden wings, Poised and tranquil as a flower, Sleeping dreamily in its bower. Page 58 Louis Cassil A TREASURE HUNT Bob Johnson, Joe Martin, and -lim Crawford stood in the front yard of Bob's home one bright and warm summer day. The boys lived in the small town of Cotton' Wood. Say gang, l've got an idea, exclaimed Bob. What do you mean? asked joe. We're going on a treasure hunt, answered Bob. Where? asked Jim Crawford, getting rather excited. Well, said Bob, sitting down on a rock, 'Tm going anyway even if you're not. You'll probably not like the idea. 'kGosh, hurry up and tell us what it's all about, said Jim. We're going across the lake to the island. When we get there I'll tell you what I intend to do next. I'll meet you at the club house in half an hour. Bring a shovel and a spade. So long- I'll be seeing you. 'Bye, answered the boys. ' Bob prepared some sandwiches, and taking shovels, spades, buckets, and a rake, started oif for the club house. The boys belonged to a secret club, whose club house was located in a grove at the end of the street on which Bob lived. It was covf ered with vines and surrounded by many trees and bushes, making it unnoticeable. Bob, entering the grove, looked around and then started for the club house. Going up to a clump of bushes, he brushed them back and knocked three times upon the door. It was opened by joe. Are you boys ready to start? asked Bob. 'LSure, said jim. I am, said Joe. Here Joe, you take this package of eats, said Bob. And -lim, here are some buckets for you to carry. I'll carry these spades and shovels. Anything forgotten? Yeah, you're forgetting your rake. I'll carry it, said joe. Come on. Let's go, said Jim. HO. K, answered Bob. The boys started for the lake which was a half mile away. When they reach' ed the lake, they got into Bob's boat. jim rowed and the boys soon reached the island. They jumped out and fastened their boat. Taking their outfits with them, Bob led the way and took them through a small woods. When they reached the edge of the woods, Bob dropped down into a hole surrounded by rocks. He called to the boys to follow. The hole was very deep and seemed larger around as they went down. Soon they turned and went through a passage. It was very dark, but Bob took two flashlights out of his pockets and continued to lead the way. Presently they came to a large door. Bob pushed on it, so joe and jim did likefwise. Finally they opened it and entered a large room. In the center was a large rug. Now, we're going to roll up that rug, said Bob. But why? asked Joe. You'll probably find out soon enough, answered Bob. The boys rolled the rug back and found that the floor under it was not like the rest, which was of dirt. Itfwas wooden- Bob took a spade and tried to pry the wooden covering off. L. .t Oh, here's a hammer, said Jim. Thanks a lot, said Bob. He took the hammer and pried the boards loose: then he threw them aside. Now for the treasure, said slim. Yeah, you boys help me lift that big lid up, said Bob. Righto, answered Joe. Page 59 They lifted up the lid and to their amazement they saw diamonds, pearls, rubies and some gold lying there. Now we'll fill the buckets, said Bob. Say Bob, how'd you ever find this place? asked one of the boys. I'll tell you while we fill the buckets, answered Bob. All right, go ahead. said Joe. Well, the other day, began Bob, I came over to the island to look around. I thought perhaps I'd hunt. When I was walking along, I fell into a hole. It was the same one we climbed into. I fell and suddenly hit bottom. Then I saw that passage way. I was rather frightened so I sat there looking at it- just then a piece of paper fell down beside me. I noticed that a.s I fell I had kicked a hole in the dirt. Un' doubtedly, the paper was hidden there. I looked at it carefully and found it to be a map of this passage. I took my flashlight and walked along but, when I came to that big door, I stopped because I knew I couldn't open it alone. But what I don't see, said Joe, is why no one ever found it before. Well, I think the hole was covered with something or other until just lately, said Bob. Heh, listen boys, I've an idea, exclaimed Jim. You remember that storm we had over on the mainland last week? Dad told me it was fierce over here. The wind probably blew away what ever covered the hole. Yeah, probably, said -Ioe. Well boys, let's take our treasure home now, said Bob. O. K. Gee. I wonder what our folks will say when they see all this? said Jim. They may be too astonished to say anything, said Bob. This means college education for all of us, fellows, said Bob as they walked toward the boat. -Betty Kern. A STUDY IN AUTUMN As I sit on a log on top of a hill over-looking a lake, I see the world, bright in Autumrfs splendor. The lake lies tranquilly shining, as the rays of the noonday sun fall upon it. The water is of a darkish green color, tinted with brown. It looks as if it is sorry the merry swimmers have almost gone, leaving it to gaze at the sky lonely and sad. But as it lies there it is gladdened by the sight of a hiking party coming, The girls make a rush for the lake to wade in it, their merry laughter ringing over the water, But I must pay attention to the other beautiful scenery around me. To the right is a light lane with a yellowish cast as if the drying golden rod had showered golden flakes over it. Beyond are rolling Helds with corn stacked up in shocks like the Indian's graceful wigwams. Around them are yellow pumpkins, snugly surf rounded with leafy green vines. In the distant background stand the majestic trees of the forest spreading their long leafy branches over the little domains of the animals below. The green under' brush below where gay little rabbits might scamper is a beautiful contrast to the gorgeous trees above. The leaves, yellow, gold, scarlet, green, and brown look as if they are trying to hold on to the fleeting summer. As they swing back and forth on their high perches, they whisper to each other, Why be sad? Look we are turning to pretty colors, Summer will come again next year. Autumn is beautiful too! -Pauline Dieterle. Page 60 ON CURIOSITY Someone said that it killed his cat. What of it? The cat was not the Erst one to die because he had too much of that mysterious quality known as curiosity and a total lack of common sense. But curiosity is not a heartles killer, even though it does have a string of victims longer than the combined strings of Chicagos famous twenty' six public enemies. Its victim always dies happy. His last wish is always granted- An excellent example is the fellow who, curious to see if his gas tank was full, lit a match and looked in. Curiosity granted his last wish. He found the tank full. I maintain that he died happy and contented. For who would not be happy to find his gas tank full? A little common sense mixed with the curiosity would have enabled him to have used the gas for the trip he had planned. Back l1'1 nineteen fourteen, the Kaiser of Germany became curious to see if he could conquer the world. He showed his lack of common sense in forgetting that some people w0n't sit at home and read the funny papers while someone conquers them. Curiosity did not kill the fellow that time, but it killed a lot of others to make up for it. A very common example of death caused by an overdose of curiosity concerns the fellow who is curious to see if his car can beat the Twentieth Century Limited to the crossing. Inxariably the race ench in a dead beat. The fellow certainly should die happy, knowing that the car got to the crossing just as quick as the train. His death is recorded as a railway accident. The coroner is always wrong. The train did not kill himg curiosity did. Everyone has his full share of curiosity, but fortunately, most people have some common sense. Always remember. curiosity without common sense is fatal. If you want proof that everybody has some curiosity ,walk into the back of a room full of people. No matter what is going on, everyone in the room will look at you- But if one should decide to collect specimens of curious mankind for a mud seum he would not want a rogues' gallery only. The museum should also have a hall of fame, made up of people with a lot of curiosity and plenty of common sense. Thomas Edison would head the collection. He is not a genius. He is merely a human being with a lot of curiosity. The same is true of all so called genii. They are just men with more than the common amount of curiosity. George XVashington would be in the collection. He was curious to see if the English could be driven from the colonies and stuck with the tight until his curiosity was satisfied. Every great ma.n in history should be given a place in the collection of curious men. All of them Were just curious fellows who stuck to their jobs until their curiosity was satisfied. But they were satisfied on a few things only. Vkfhen a man's curiosity is satisfied about everything, and he is no longer the least bit curious, something besides curios- ity will have to kill him, and the quicker. the better. -Frank Mitchell. Page 61 THE SNOW STORM The night wind rocked the leafy treesg And like the hum of busy bees, A roaring sound from out the west Foretold a storm of fearful zest. A chilly frost had filled the airg And flakes were falling every where. The field that was a rusty brown Was soon clothed in a snowy gown. The little boy with shouts of glee Had watched for snow impatiently. But now the snow was falling fast: And they would get to slide at last. The snowflakes fell like drops of raing And melted on the window pane- While past the house the blizzard roaredg And snowflakes covered every board. The snow white flakes of every size Would seem to fall and then to rise. Then by the wind were forced to fallg And soon had formed a snowy shawl. The sparrows from the eaves had flown: And hid themselves in nests unknown. The giant trees would creak and groang And in the wind would seem to moan. The windows of the house grew bright: And by the frost were colored white. The frost had painted everything Even the flowers that grow in spring. The chilly wind from out the east Had all the iierceness of a beast, But when this winter wind had died lt left a transformed country side. -Dorothy Greenwalt Page 62 SUEIEM From social intercourse are de- rived some of the highest en- ,gl joyments of lifeg where there is a free interchange of sentiments, the mind acquires new ideas, and by a frequent exercise of its powers, the understanding gains fresh vigor. -Addison.

Q N-su JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET Wednesday at 6:30 p. m., the Juniors of the Kendallville high school entertained, in a most novel fashion, the Seniors. faculty and school board members at a banquet in the high school gymnasium. Plates were laid for one hundred and seventyffive. and the menu, printed in Spanish, kept most of the guests in a quandary until after the three course dinner had been served. Seated at the tables were the honored Seniors, seventyfseven in all, and seventy Juniors, surrounded by the faculty, members of the board of education and their wives. The room was elaborately decorated to give it the appearance of a Spanish patio. A foun' tain, balcony, lights and Spanish shawls lent atmosphere of distant Cadiz. Beautiful costumes worn by the girls and the dark suits of the boys added to the colorful picture. After the banquet. which was served by the Home Economics classes, Robert Stoeckley presided as toastmaster. He invited his Quests to spend the evening in romantic Spain, calling up' on Senorita June Rickett to give the welcome, which she did in a most gracious manner. Senor Wynian Finley responded in behalf of the Seniors. ln an original poem, Senor Vern Steckley very cleverly told of the high lights in the Senior class' history. as if his Spanish guitar was speak' ing. Senor L. S. Brumbaugh, 'imatador's subject was Corrida -- bull hghts, which have been for centuries the chief sport of the Spanish people. The program ended with a Serenta Y Dan:a by Kenneth Lung and June Rickett. Music was furnished throughout the evening by the Yellow Jacket Orchestra. - Tables and chairs were removed after the dinner and after the grand march led by June Ric5cett,pRobert Harp, Sarah McCray and Wyinari Finley, the remainder of the evening was spent in ancing. A special dance number, which delighted all. was given at the close, as the grand climax of the evenings entertainment by six Junior girls gayly attired in Spanish Costumes. These Span' ish senoritas included Helen Louise Butz, Geraldine Swihart, Virginia Pershing, Zylpha Lehner, Georgiana Deuerling and Elinor WCl1Il16yCl'. This Spanish fiesta, planned by the Junior class under the direction of Miss Laura Good' win, and carried out with precision and cxactness, was in every way a decided success and will long stand out in the memories of the Senior class as one of the colorful events in their career as members of the Kendallville high school.

Page 66 mllwliluljs , The boy who has high ideals and 1 has lived up to them on the play 7 ground will let these same ideals 6 control his relations in the business. world. But no matter how high the ideals that have been presented to a youth may have been, if he forgets them on the play ground he will forget them in after life in his business and social relations. Athletics alone will not develop these ideals, but they must be instilled by some one who has the respect and confidence of the student and who has the power to see that fair means are recognized and employ- ed by both teams. Thus we see that the athletic field can be the laboratory in which ethics may be taught and practiced. -Naismith. JOHN HOW O. O, GUYMON COACHES AND MANAGER John D. How has closed a most successful year in athletics for Kendallville High School. He developed a line track team, put much pep in baseball and stimuf lated more interest in basketball than ever before. During his two years of work in Kendallville, he has sent our boys to the Butler Field House each time. He has won the best of cofoperation from all who were under his training. O. O. Guymon, after a few years absence, is back with us. He deserves much praise for his interest in athletics. The second team can be proud to have Mr. Guyf mon for their coach and their success this year is due to his untiring efforts. Walter Newnam, as student manager, has shown the true K. H. S. spirit, always striving for the good of the team. He attended all practice sessions, checked equipment, and recorded statistics. He has been an able assistant in every capacity.

Page 72 BASKETBALL At the close of the baseball season, we began a more strenuous task, basket' ball. 1 Under the careful direction of Coach How and his assistant, O. O. Guymon, a strong team was built up. Four of last year's regulars were back, Lybarger, White' man and Floyd and Lewis Henry. RED DEVILS ARE NO MORE The name Red Devils will find no place in our annuals from this time on. For the past few years there has been much adverse criticism on the part of some fans who disliked the name Red Devils. They thought the name not approprif ate for a team of clean young athletes. Hence, the name Comets and Meteors, sugf gestive of higher things and more uplifting, were adopted. With the changing of the name the whole regalia of the basketball team was changed-blue suits with a golden design of the word Comets on the front and a comet adorning the backi November 18 Kendallville 31 LaGrange 16 This was the night the Comets and Meteors flashed for the first time. The little town of LaGrange was one flare of light from the time the Comets and Meteors arrived until their departure. Then the little town of LaGrange was in total darkness. The Comets had easy sailing all the way through. November 2 1 Kendallville 21 Michigan City 11 This was the first time Michigan City and Kendallville ever engaged in any athletic combat. Kendallville literally swept the Red Devils off their feet. December 5 Kendallville 21 Angola 17 The Comets, in defeating Angola, won their first conference game. It was uphill business and looked doubtful until the very last quarter. December 6 Kendallville 20 South Bend 25 The rangy South Bend quintet was too much for the Comets. We were de- feated. December 13 Kedallville 17 Central, Fort Wayne 19 Central of Fort Wayne, with their trio of colored boys, gave the Comets their second defeat. December 19 Kendallville 24 Auburn 14 A delayed offense defeated our old time rival, Auburn. The Comets outplayf ed the auto city with the same brand of ball that they used against them last spring in the Regional.

December 23 Kendallville 29 Shipshewana 14 This proved quite a surprise when the Comets took the Shipshewana Indians into camp. The Indians, who spend most of their idle time playing basketball, were completely outclassed. January 9 Kendallville 17 Huntington 27 The Comets led the Hrst three quarters of the fray, but were held scoreless the last quarter while the Vikings speedily forged ahead. january IO Kendallville 22 Mishawaka 17 This was the first time Kendallville and Mishawaka had met for several years. The Comets led throughout except for a few minutes in the second quarter. January 16 Kendallville 22 South Side, Fort Wayne 19 The Comets, after trailing at the half, 8 to 14, closed up the gap and at the end led 22 to 19- BLIND TOURNEY The blind tourney was held at Auburn with four teams present, Bluffton, De- catur, Auburn, and Kendallville. In the afternoon session the Comets trounced Blufff ton 29 to 16. Auburn won from Decatur 27 to 23. Too much Willianis spelled defeat for the Comets in the final game when Auf burn won 37 to 30. january 23 Kendallville 24 Lima of Howe 17 Coach How started the game with full strength against the Lima crew, which gave them a wide margin. The second string men were used during most of the last half- ' um! january 30 Kendallville 19 Angola 16 Kendallville defeated Angola for the second time of the season. This time they were defeated on their own floor. Page 74 February 6 Kendallville 35 Garrett 14 The Garrett railroaders were given the high ball to side track for the fast Kendallville Comets. This game seemed for a time more of a football contest than basketball. Some very classy tackles and forward passes were tried by the railroaders. February 13 Kendallville 32 Columbia City 24 Although it was Friday the 13th, it held no terrors for the Comets. They played a strong defensive and delayed offensive game, trouncing the Eagles in great style. February 14 Kendallville 37 Elkhart 23 The Comets invaded the Elkhart gym and brought home the bacon. Playing a great defensive game, the Comets held the Elkhart team from scoring a single Held goal the Erst half. February 20 Kendallville 18 Bluffton 36 D-F.fFfEfA-T spells defeat, the worst the Comets had faced this year. The Tigers were blood thirsty and the Comets were their victims. That Bluffton team sure was hot. February 21 Kendallville 23 North Side, Fort Wayne 10 The Comets flashed out a defense that was nothing less than marvelous. Durf ing the entire first half the Redskins failed to register a field goal- They were trailing 10 to 2. ' February 27 Kendallvillc 19 Decatur 21 A sad ending yet a successful year. The Comets were defeated by Decatur in a rough and hard fought battle. A low ceiling and small floor proved the undoing of the Comets. Time after time the Comets shot at the basket only to have the ball hit the ceiling. The year of 1930 and 31 closes one of the toughest basketball seasons in the history of the local High. K. H. S. won 15 games and lost 6. There was not one mishap during the tough grind. K. H. S. scored 528 points to their opponents 408. Page 75 sf' Je MCI' Tom vwwlgf N-... Upper Row rict Diggms.

Kendallville made three of their four attempts. Auburn. The Regional was held at Auburn and Kendallville met Auburn in the Hrst game. This game developed into a real battle. The Comets were sure of victory and so were Zeke's war' riors. After a hard fought game the Comets were on the long end of the score, 29 to 21. By defeating Lima, Mentone won their right to play the Comets in the final game. Kendallville playing their best brand of ball easily defeated Mentone 41 to li. Cn to the state. The Comets were given a real send off for Inf dianapolis with school yells and songs. In the curtain raiser our boys met the Muncie Bearcats. It was a tough team to meet as they were runnerfup last year in the state finals. To much Mann and Icerman spelled defeat for the Comets. Kendallville was defeated 37 to 16. Well-anyway we cannot feel bad as Muncie is state Champion for 1931. Page 78 .-'qw' .mv-umm-un Page 79 INTRA MURAL BASKETBALL LEAGUE A basketball league was organized by Coach John How.

THE HIKING CLUB This year a new sport was added to our already large list, This sport is in the form of a Hiking Club. lt was organized late in September and has about thirty names on the roll. Short hikes were taken every Tuesday night throughout the en' tire school year. A little cold or snow did not keep this peppy group of girls in on Tuesday nights. ln nice weather longer hikes were taken and several times the girls cooked their supper in the country. According to the point system 25 points were given for membership and 1 point was given for every mile hiked. The Hiking Club, although new this year, is very popular. It is the hope of every member this year that it will be reorganized next September. Page 84 Q . l ind! YOLLEY BALL XVINNERS First Rou'fBetty Hopkins. Paquita lhrie. Margaret XIcDaniels.

THE VOLLEY BALL CLUB This is the second year for the existence of the Volley Ball Cluh. lt was ref organized late in Septemher with .1 memhership of ahout VI girls. This group was divided into two teams under the leadership of Margaret Schmidt and ldamay Hill. choosing the name of 'K. Cs' and O. Bfsu respectively. Practices were held each Vxfedriesday. Une point was given to each side for each memher present and for each point scored in the game. At the end of the season. when the points were add' ed, the Cfsu were declared as winners. The winners were entertained at a very delightful party given hy the losing side. The lnterclass Tourney was held early in lxlarch. Three games were played hy each two contesting teams. The Sophomores easily defeated the Freshmen hy winning two games making it unnecessary to play the third. The Seniors defeated the Juniors in a harder tight making it necessary to play the three games. The Final games hetween the Seniors and Sophomores were very close games. The teams were very evenly matched. Again it was necessary to play the three games, the Sophof mores emerging victorious only after a hard fought hattle. Altogether this has heeri one of the most successful years since the existence of volley hall in the school. All girls have thoroughly enjoyed the sport and have spread the enthusiasm throughout the entire school. Volley hall ranks second to haskethall only. Page S5 f ole Q Flrst Row-Marjorie Olry.

BASEBALL The enthusiastic group of girls who came out for hasehall this year are none other than those who have made hasket hall and volley hall such a success this year. Ever since the first year, 1927, hasehall has heen one of the most important items on our list of activities. At first many of the girls were not familiar with the game and many hlunders were made. Practices were held every week. however, and soon under the ahle direction and untiring efforts of Miss Carroll, the girls learned a great deal ahout the game. After getting into the swing of it the games played at practices hecame very peppy and interesting. When the weather was too nice to play indoors, the practices were held on the playground. Basehall is fast hecoming as popular as hasket hall, It is the newest game of our activities and is very enthusiastically received hy the girls at the beginning of the season. This year has heen the most successful of any since its addition to our activif ties in 1927. Because of its fast increasing popularity the girls are looking forward to the hasehall season of 1932- With the enthusiasm that has heen stored up this season, next year has a very promising outlook. Come on, girls, it's up to you! Help do your hit to make hasehall more and more popular. Page S6 'I w Pt .sae L Q tl cs -9m'ii 'it5fi:ix A A new as .

TRACK A track meet for the girls was held late in May at the Fairgrounds. This is the Hrst time in several years that a girls track meet has been held and not many turned out for it. The events offered were: standing broad jump, running broad jump, high jump, baseball throw, shot put, basket ball throw, and 90, 75, and 100 yard dashes. Each girl was allowed to participate in five of these. According to the point system, 2 points were given for each event entered, and 30 points for first place in any one, 20 points for second place, and 10 points for third. Ribbons were award' ed to the winners. A blue ribbon was given for first place, red for second, and white for third- Although not many girls participated those present considered it a very sucf cessful event. All expressed their desire that a track meet be held the following year. Because track was new to the girls participating, the enthusiasm for it was not as great as for the older sports. However, as last year's event has shown, the girls are really interested in track. Work hard, girls, and have a large crowd out for track this year. It's up to you whether or not track will be continued. Get up the spirit and enthusiasm. You can do it. We're for you.

Second Row-Betty Hopkins, Dorothea Harker, Margaret McDaniels, Vivian Rufhng, Marguerite Cunningham, Mary Ellen Pollard. BASKETBALL When the call was issued for hasket hall, girls from all classes, with the ex' ception of the eighth grade, responded with enthusiasm. There were so many that it was necessary to divide into two groups. the heginners practicing on Monday nights, and the more advanced practicing on Thursday nights. Miss Carroll found very fine material to work with this ycar and together with the fine material and the capahle coaching of Miss Carroll, a most successful season of hasket hall was the result. Later in the season the girls were organized into class teams. All high school classes were represented with a team. At practicing very interesting games were played hy the class teams. The lnterclass Tourney was played late in March. All teams were very evenly matched and as the result some very exciting games were played. The winners received their title only after a very hard fought hattle. Basket hall has long hcen the favorite sport of the girls and this year no enf thusiasm has heen lost. All girls participating in this sport have had enthusiasm and pep that can not hc equaled. Under the ahle direction of Miss Carroll, this season will go down in the history of the Kendallville High School as one of the most suc' cessful. Keep it up, girls, you're doing line! Save some of that enthusiasm and pep for next year. You'll need it if you wish next year to he as successful as this year has been.
