H. S. seventy-nine eager, jolly fresh- men thirsting for knowledge and the chance to prove our worth. Contrary to the accepted theory that freshmen are always green, we immediately began to lead the other classes in participation in school activities. From our number were chosen musicians, orators. substitute teachers and Chris- tion Association workers. XVith vim and vigor the freshmen of 1919-20 launched the color fights and class contests. Throughout the sophomore and junior years our class continued to lead and gain honors for L. C. H. S. XVe have been well represented al- ways in the Y. XV. C. A. and Y. M. C. A., glee clubs, quartets, orchestra. and plays. The senior year has been full of fun as well as work. The class has been active in giving plays and other enlertaimnents. Much enjoyment has been derived from our work on the Annual staff. The popularity of this volume will prove the success of our efforts. XVhen we leave the school after commencement, we shall be missed hy the students and teachers who remain. but no one will feel more keenly the loss than we ourselves. Our work of preparation in L. C. H. S. has been a constant joy to us. and we only hope that the efforts of untiring parents and teachers have not been in vain, that each and every one of us may live a life that will shed added glory on the class of '23.

H. S. with an enrolli ment oi' seventy-six and the other students could tell by the demeanor ot these young persons that they would soon be one of the best classes in school. Several of the class entered activities and since then many others have helped the school in its various entries in the Verdigris Valley League. Oakley Sailsbury was elected first president of the class, and under his able direction the class colnpleted its first year, NVhen school opened in ,22 fifty-one of the sophomores returned with more determination than ever to make their school life a success. Danil Parlett was elected president and proved to be very satisfactory. Forty-two of the original class, with Dean Armstrong as President, now constitute one ol' the finest classes in school. The junior class has representatives in basket ball. football, track, debate and music. One of this class is president of the Y. M. C. A. and there are many girls who are active members ot' the Y. XV. C. A. fl'he juniors are looking forward to their senior year as the most suc- cessful year ol the tour and when graduation takes them from L. C. H.

However, the journey had its pleasures as jVC .df pains, for Mr. Katterjohn allowed them to go aside lI1t0 an mteresting PIC nie spot known as Horseshoe Bend. Having safely traversed the first mile, seventy-nine ot the 0l:l,Qll1tl2' travelers started on the second relay in 1922. The road Seemed tull Vo crooks and turns which revealed entrancing spots.

On the fifth day of September, 1922, eighty-one green and growing freshmen made their debut within the walls of Labette County High School. These newcomers made up the class of 1926. An election was held at once and Glenn Silcott was chosen to pilot the class. The freshmen proved their worth both in the classroom and in student activities. At the close of the first semester the names of six ambitious fveshinen appeared on the school honor roll. There were three freshmen girls on the girls' basket ball team and one freshman lad was successful in finding a place on both the school football team and the boys' basket ball squad. During the school year seven different freshmen found oppor- tunities to stair in various school plays. The class of '26 exhibited a splendid school spirit throughout the year. If they retain their present enthusiasm they will go through high school with colors flying. ,..--.-.-.-.-.-.-.-....,, 1 9 2 3 ' r . 5 nazi'-annum -1 4:o4nn.i4p.

One of the improvements which has accomplished the most good is the serving of hot lunches at noon and night. The dining room is situated in the basement in the northeast room. which was previously occupied by the manual training department. The room was thoroughly cleaned, the floor painted gray, the ceiling white and the walls battleship gray. Dainty cream and blue curtains were placed at the windows and new tables and chairs were purchased. The tables are of oak, thirty by forty-eight inches, with white enameled tops. Six can sit at one table. A smaller room im- mediately south of the dining hall is used as a kitchen. Inside the dining room and in front of the kitchen door is a long table on which is placed the equipment for serving the food. XVholesome, well-balanced meals are served twice a day for the small sum of fifteen cents per meal. The slu- dents can now get warm, nutritious meals for a smaller amount than it would require to purchase the raw materials, besides enjoying the good effects of congenial company and a cheerful room. Besides the many other improvements this year has seen the estab- lishlnent of a department of journalism and printing in I.. C. H. S. A printing press and all the equipment necessary for giving the students practical training were purchased and the enrollment in these classes ex- ceeded the greatest expectations of the authorities. Because of the eager- ness and enthusiasm of these amateurs L. C. H. S. has had a school paper this year that is one of the best in the state. The journalism students. with the aid of the other students and faculty. secured the news for t'The La- betta and the printing class printed the paper in a first class style. The students, besides printing t'The Labettaf' have printed designs on cards, have made calling cards. Christmas cards, prmted envelopes and stationery, and have printed all l.. C. H. S. advertising hills for athletic games and plays, also all otlice torms and blanks. As a result of the large enrollment this year it was necessary to con- vert the room formerly used as an otlice by the Board of Trustees into a class room by installing desks, blaekboards and' a teacher's desk. The small room known as the studio has been set aside for the use of the Board. Tablet arm chairs have been purchased for the cooking class room, and. a new room for the use of the printing department has been tinished in the basement. Thus the year 19213 eloses with the equipment of I.. C. H. S. much better than ever before and the future for us looks very bright. Daisy Seaton. '2l. f as tt rzzzzzoz-,-H1 I t t i lt II It U !

However, teaclnng IS a noble pl'OfCSSl0ll, and L. A- II C. H. S. may justly be proud of the great number of teachers she sends out il to all parts of the state each year. ' . . . . . . II These eighteen students will take the state examination this sprmgg passing this test, they will receive a two-year Normal Training certificate. .. Man of them are also Jlannm f to attend the summer session ot the State - Y .l in . . .

Three vears ago, the Smith-Hughes Vocational work was introduced at l.. C. H. S. A vear later, a second year course was offered, and prepara- tions are now being lnade to otter a third year,s work next year. A prescribed course in Home Economics has been outlined for girls who wish to major in home-lnaking. One of the main objectives i11 edu- cation is the proper use ol' leisure time. No doubt music will fill a large ' ' usic chosen will be ja7z part ol leisure time in the holne, and whether the m . . or standard, will depend upon the training which is given in our schools today. Therefore the appreciation and history of lnusic have a promi- nent place in the home-maker's course. Elective subjects, such as civics, community economics, sociology, and American history are offered to create a greater interest in civic problems, and to promote better citizen- ship. The Home Economics course covers a study of foods, dietetics, cloth- ing and textiles, and related subjects, such as designing Elllil house furnish- ing, home nursing. child care, general science, household physics, and chemistry. The work has been made as practical as possible by relating it to the home. school ard community. Home projects are carried on curing the year, either in the home or ' X 1 - - -' ' conditions. , some place appioxnnatmg home A boys' cooking class has been organized this year, and much enthus- iasm has been shown.

A greater number ofidramatie entertainments than usual have been given-five plays and a Novelty linlertaimnent, presented by the seniors, including a short play entitled Miss Molly. The first play, A Case of Suspension, and a later one, A Perplexing Situation. were one act comedies given in connection with lnusic concerts. Kindling the Hearth Firef' the play given by the 1llCl11lJCI'S of the voca- tional departments, was a decided success. The purpose of this play was to advertise the advantages gained from the vocational courses in the high school. It was presented at Baylor, Mound Valley and at Fairview, and April 2-1 at L. C. H.

To find and give the best is the true punpose of every Blue Triangle irl. . g At the beginning of the school year a Kid Party was held in the gylnnasllllll- On Hallowe'en Night a Y. M.-Y. W. masquerade proved to be the source of much merriment. On Jan. 15, a mother-daughter banquet was served to the mothers of the L. C. H. S. students. The forenoon was spent in getting acquainted and visiting the different departments of the high school, the Y. XV. C. A. girls acting as hostesses. A short program was prepared for the afternoon and Mrs. O. M. Davis of Parsons talked to the girls and their mothers. It was an event which will be remembered for many years. ' In February the club sent its full quota of delegates to the midwinter confer- ence for the Y. W. C. A. girls of Southern Kansas, held at Winfield. The girls who attended were Daisy Seaton, Elsie Moore, Lorine Turner, Letha Gearhiser, Evelyn Massa and Mabel Utley. Miss Turner accompanied them. The girls did some good thinking on big questions at the conference and they came home eager to help the other club members face their responsibilities as Christians for certain problems that confront the world today. The club meetings throughout the year have been helpful and interesting and the girls of the school have enjoyed the good fellowship the association afl'ords. A fine spirit of friendliness has been predominant The members of the Y. XV. C. A. wish to estend a cordial invitation to all the girls entering I.. C. ll. S. next fall to become Girl Reserves and help the club to climb steadily onward and upward. I 9 2 3 -U-.- -.- -..-.-.,-..- - -.- 9:0 II l II i H II l H U ll H l Jzciazzi u Q ul E ! ! I 5 ! ! Q ! !

Secu-tary-'l'i-easin-or The Hoof and Horn Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. E. A. Claw- son, director of vocational agriculture, has been an active organization since November 22, 1920. Its purpose is to encourage the production ot' high grade and pure bred live stock and to promote a feeling of friendship and good fellowship among all members. Nearly all members are owners of either high grade or pure bred live stoek. Some own hogs, a few members own sheep and a large number own high grade dairy animals. Two shipments of high grade Holsteins were ilnported from the dairy section of XVisconsin. Several members of the club are taking an active interest in the Capper Pig Club and also the State Pig Club. More interest is being shown in the feeding and care of live stock than ever before. Meetings of the club the past year have been at the eall of the presi- dent. At these regular meetings addresses, short stories, debates, music and refreshments are a part of the evening program. About sixty members are the present membership of the organization. .m-------,,,LAJWETTAwmmm--- ,,-,. .,, . ,. -., -, -- , .N .gf ,171 V A5 .-'- ., .. ,I .qyqlvgqp Firm 4 - - ' -' - V- --1' 1 -Lf!

Cheer after cheer arose as Altamont made touchdown after touchdown while Dickinson County, although they fought hard. made nothing. The score was -13-0 in favor of Labette County Com- munity High! Can that be possible! breathed the old man. After all the years I worked on that team and we never won anything, to think I should live to see this day! Ile descended slowly to the bottom of the grandstand and was soon lost in the crowd. He made his way to the hotel where he found a lively crowd of young people listening to a large orchestra. They belong to our High Sehool,', one girl informed him. NVQ have a fine orchestra. It has about seventy pieces and we have won a great many cups and hold the state chainpionshipf, It is all rightft sighed the old man. 'tYou have a splendid school here. but some way it doesn't seem like holne. NVe had an excellent school here in '23 while we were still Labettc County High and we loved it. I'm glad. of course. it has gone forward and not backward, but it has ruined my vision of happy days here. This large city with its winning teams does not quite fit in with my school daysf' The old man went slowly down to the station and asked for the next train going east. Yes, I live in Bosotn. I haven't been back since I graduated from here in '23 and I found quite a different place from what I had expected, he explained as he climbed into the train. -Charlotte Tullis, '25, MASTERING FATE. Midnight on an ocean, mused the young Russian officer, as hc gazed thoughtfully into the sky. Q Large dark clouds floated above the foaming waves, sometimes hid- ing the light of the moon from the ships that were sailing toward the port. In the distance rose a light-house, dark and gloomy, yet appreciated be- cause of the friendly light it shed on the rocks. Vessels dotted thc great ocean as far as eye could see. It was all very beautiful, and strange. NVith a sigh he turned to the group of persons at his side,guarded by German soldiers. who treated them as beasts and allowed them no privileges. He smiled wistfully. but did not speak. Life, as many of the soldiers ex- pressed it. was hell. Fall in! came a hoarse, broken command. Instantly there was a shutlling of feet. the long line of prisoners straightened. Then followed a series of commands and orders. Five minutes later the deck was clear. the prisoners were locked in for the night awaiting with dread the coming of the dawn. i K Some cause unknown to the soldiers, delayed their unloading at day- break. but alter much trouble and swearing by the superior officers, they ------V ---- -- 1923.,----,,,,,,, .-.-.-.-......-........-......

Excitement reigned supreme in the little town ol' Halnpton as the long afternoon slowly dragged itself' to a close. During the last hour ol' the dav in the high school situated in that town the students t'ound it very hard to istudv and there seemed to be a tense undercurrent of excitement in the atmosphere. .Ks the last bell rang the students rushed out of the class- rooms to gather in excited groups ami discuss the coming basket ball game with the rival town ol' Crawford. These two towns were continually struggling to settle the champion- ship hetween them. but were so evenly matched that it was always doubt- t'ul as to which town had won the greater share of the honors. In the evening the girls' basket hall teams were to compete and the girls as well as the student body. were keyed up to the highest pitch. .Ks the time l'or the game drew nearer the Hampton team gathered in the dressing room and soon they were attired in their basket ball suits ready l'or the l'ray. The first and second centers, Elizabeth Aikens and Margaret Simmons. were very earnestly discussing signals in one corner while the guards. .Xlice Brady and Evelyn Nevins. were silently holding hands in another corner. This game was to be the supreme test and the girls were more or less 'tshakyw about it. Only one girl on the entire team was confident they would win and that was Marjory Kimball, the forward, who had played two years and was extremely sure she could win this game t'or llampton. t'Oh. il' I could only play and play awfully welllu thought 'tPeggy', Neilv. the sub-forward. as she slowly drew her cap upon her head. Seems as il' I try so hard and never even get to enter the gamef' she thought again sadly hut. as was natural with her. she resolutely turned away all selfish thoughts and looked up with a bright smile as Lorine Swift. the other forward. came toward her.

Sud- denly a Hampton guard secured the ball in just the right ti1ne to save It from making a goal for Crawford, and shot the ball to the Center, who by an underhand pass shot it deftly to Peggy. She was a long way from the goal but as her colleague was closely guarded she decided to shoot anyway. The ball hit the basket but seelned undecided as to whether it should go in or not and rolled gently on the edge ot' the basket, as is often the caseg but suddenly it inclined to favor Hampton and dropped through the basket just as the final whistle blew. Hurrah! Hurrah! for Peggy! rang through the building as she, blushing and smiling, received the compliments of her many friends.

Bodily strength and activity were so highly honored hy the Greeks that the athlete held a high position in society. XVhen he proposed to enter the lists at the Olympic or other public games he was examined with regard to birth, social position, and moral character. So great was the honor ot' the Olympian victor, that his native city was regarded as ennobled by his success. and he himself was considered sacred. In the early days of America, athletics did not play a very big part, but as the Indians were driven back more time was given to these modes ot' recreation and exercise.As conditions became better some form ot' ath- letics was adopted in the schools, and in recent years the foremost educa- tors have begun to recognize the necessity ot' some means ot' exercise for school children, and now athletics have come into their own. Practically every school in the United States has some form ot' inter-scholastic sports. Athletics have always been up to a standard in the L. C. H. S. and the cleanness of players on the teams is commented upon by the other teams in the Verdigris Valley League of which we are a part. FQ fi i - XT Z A i?

THE GAME. ,Tis winter and the moon peeps out from behind the cold clouds on a world that has been touched by magic during the fleeting hours of the day and transformed into a wonderland of dreams. The wind is whistling through the frozen branches of the trees as you make your way across the campus to the lighted gym where warmth and gayety reside. As you near the gym you hear singing and yelling within. Are you late? You quicken your steps. The gym is full. You can find no seat. You,d rather stand up anyway so you can sing and yell with the rest. Your team is colning in, those whom you praise and honor. How strong they look in their suits of Crimson and Gold, full of pep and glowing with health! More yells burst from the throats of those on the side-lines. The whistle blows. The game has begun. A period of time divided into four quarters has elapsed. Another whistle sounds above the noise of the happy crowd. The game is over and L. C. H. S. is victorious! Lorine Turner, '23. A HUMBLE SERVANT. Choose your subjects for verse or prose as you will, O you Minervas, but let me choose mine, not with a wish to prate of skies at sunset, for that has been perfected far beyond my power, nor yet to praise the violet, the simple, unassuming violet. Lyrics to the violet have been written without number. I choose my subject in the back I'0Olll of the basement of L. C. H. S. It is enclosed in a little five hy seven frame, hanging over the wash basins in the engine rooln. You have never seen it? Go then, and gaze upon its besmeared surface. lt lnay not animate you with a benevolent desire to buy a full-length mirror and present it with great ceremony, thereby gaining a half-holiday, but it may inspire you with the knowledge that one need not look afar for Opportunity. Perhaps it would recall to your memory that song we sang as children, Brighten the Corner XVhere You Aref, Truly that little glass does its bit. How dear it is to every boy who, covered with grease, grabs a little Spec-dee cleanser, and after a hasty scrubbing gives a hurried look into its 1nyst1c depths to see if any adheres, before going to his next class.

XX'hen memory paints for us. in eolors more vivid than those made by the most skillful of artists. pictures of incidents. faces. or even old land- marks of high school days. then. and not until then do we fully appreciate them. , I am thinking now of the old study hall clock. So many times did we rush up to the study hall. just to take a peep from the outside. taking pre- caution that Mrs. llall did not see us. to see if we had time to run out to the well and get a drink. go down to the print shop to learn how the Lahetta was coming that week or to see if we could lind Helly to borrow her pen. Oh. yes. still tifteen minutes hefore hell time! So otl' we tripped only to get half way to our destination and hear the bell tingling with all earnestness on our would-he unheeding ears. XVe rushed hack to the study hall. only to find the old clock calmly ticking away with the maiority ol' our fifteen minutes still uncounted. That clock is wrong again. and we wondered if it was ever right. But then we did not think. as we do now. how very kind. after all. that old clock was. not to mention how servieeahle. NVQ shudder to think of the tales that old clock might tell if it could talkg of times when the librarian had been called to the otlice and we were left alone. Now we marvel that that old clock, which has spent so many years of faithful toil. losing much less time than we did. and ticking away the min- utes ot' our high school career. was not more fully appreciated while we were there.

I Vlide, smooth., and cheerfully attractive. flooded by the morning sun- shine, is the old window-seat in the north hall. Built in the cross section othhallway over the stairs. the window throws out a beaming light, and oflers a comfortable, inviting ledge. How many tales of joy and sorrow, of love and. longing have been whispered there in sheltered seclusion! How many joyous lads and lasses have met there for a moment of mutual confidence, secure in the knowledge that the window tells no tales. And the window unchanged, will continue with its inviting ledge. to be a bliss- ful haven of unnumbered tete-a-tetes to come. Ethel XVaugh. '23, TAKE I'l' OR LEAVE IT. Dramatis Personae.

S. has stood, a bright star of opportunity against the background of the sky of life, and through those years have gone, in and out of that building, many boys and girls, happy and hopeful, devoted, enthusiastic and inspired by the know- ledge and training gained there. The Labette County High School is woven in the memory of those who have known its joys and sorrows, and is linked in the rosy dreams and aspirations of those who long for them. The seniors of the class of 1923 are the last to enjoy the distinction of graduating from the old familiar L. C. H. S., for though the same in sys- tem and in purpose, offering more than ever before, the Labette County High School has ceased to beg yet only the name is changed,Ait is as it was, yet different. Dear Alma Mater, soon we too, will join the alumni, but the classes from 1896 to 1923 will carry in their hearts, memories that can never be given to those who follow. The dear old letters carved deep in the scarred facade of the building must be changedg Labette County High School, as such, has performed her mission, and must become Labette County Com- munity High School. In our dreams come floating many old loved songs, among them the careless little melody of L. C. You Shineft and so you do, a star of hope, with rays that guide and gladden all those who have known your touch,- Labette County Community High School in the name of the law, but still Labette County High School in the love of the alumni.
