The meet was a disappointment to the members of the team, as they all expected to win. It was a battle royal from start to finish and In sev- eral places, Lancaster showed lack ot training. In at least three events the contestants did not do nearly so well as they had been doing at homo. In the meet with Zanesville a few weeks before, the team made a much better showing, defeating that team by a score of 65 to 59. I ancaster's victories were well distributed among the members of the team, while one man scored 43 points for Zanesville. Taking into consideration the fact that the L. H. S. has not been repre- sented by a track team for three years, it will not be denied that this team has madq an extra good show- ing this spring. BASEBALL OF 1907. The I ncaster High School base- ball team with Frank McCIlntock as Captain and Edward Orman as Man- ager, has. so far. had a very success- ful season and It. is also the best team the High School ever produced. LITERATURE. Our study of the History of English literature during the year 1907 was a complete success, everybody taking special interest in it. While studying this history we found ourselves en- veloped among the lives of all our greatest, poets and authors and how they came to write poetry. Beginning with the time when rhymes were just being made and remembered. We stud- ied hard till we reached Queen Vic- j toria’s Age which brought many popu- lar and wonderful men before us. Al- though we found some difficult places to pull through we handled them with care and soon came out on top. Tho study of English literature is interest- ing front beginning to end and shows us that only a great genius could have written such inspiring words in such a beautiful and artistic mannner. Along with the history we studied a series of books, one of which was Bacon's Essays” or A Handy Dictionary, as one called It. A more helpful book cannot be found, and our study of it was certainly help- ful to 11» for it. showed us “that we should do unto others as we would have them do unto us.” The pupil go- ing through High School would miss half tho Senior year If he didn't study the History of English Literature.

The Seniors are lucky, The Sophomores arc plucky, The Freshmen are donkeys And the Juniors are flunkeys.” Why is Mr. Brashares like a thresh- ing-machine? Because he goes against the grain.
