The total number in our class at that time was 24. 'We se- lected Onward V' Upward ! as our motto, and we have put forth every effort to fulfill our motto during our short high school years, and furthermore in years to come after graduation. Emmert Groff was president of our class while in our freshmen year, but left us after the first few weeks to attend a school near his home. Florence Brubaker was secretary of the class and at the end of the Junior year entered the lohnsville-New Lebanon School. Mary Aukerman was treasurer of the class. . Although at this Green Agef, we contributed material to Play Day, basket ball and other athletic teams. The Freshmen presented one of their members as a representative of our school in the spelling contest. She also represented her class in this capacity for the three years succeeding. ' At the end of the first year the class diminished. Those leaving the class were Margaret Henry, Emerson Lantis, Arthur Emley and Glenn and Cecil Mattix. Some of them moved out of the school district, and others quit because of poor health. The Sophomore year began with a total number of sixteen. Minor Lantis elected president and Leona Noffsinger secretary-treasurer. Both moved away at the end of that year. This was the last year for another of our classmates to be with us-Mabel Smith. This year of our school-work proved to be a very prosperous one. Not only were there a large number in the athletic held but the members also had literary talent. Three of our class members had the honor of representing our school in the yearly Literary Contest: Glenn Brandenburg, vocal solog Ethel Phelps, piano solo, and Minor Lantis, discussion. The Junior year dawned with a class enrollment of thirteen. Helen Barton was president, Nellie Brandenburg secretary, and Kathryn Ulrich treasurer. A number of the class were members of the Glee Club. Ruth Eby, Glenn Brandenburg, and Mary Aukerman aided in bringing back the Silver and Gold cups for their school in the chorus at the Literary Contest. The junior class lost seven of its members during this year. Everett Creech, Harmon Stowe, and Raymond Paxon left during the year, and Ethyl Rhodes, Kathryn Ulrich and Ethyl Phelps moved at the end of the Junior year. Those present in the Senior class are as follows: Aukerman, Mary Brandenburg, Nellie Barton, Helen Eby, Ruth Brandenburg, Glenn Spitler, Treva Mary Aukerman is president of the class and Glenn Brandenburg vice presi- dent. Nellie Brandenburg was elected secretary and Helen Barton treasurer. All the members of the class except one are members of the Glee Club. Glenn Brandenburg has the honor of being the president of the Glee Club. It is believed that all the Seniors in the Glee Club will compose part of the group in the chorus at the Literary Contest. The members of the High School also look to the Seniors for a cheer leader, Helen Barton. She has been putting forth all effort to lead us in the cheers. Mary Aukerman won the county championship in the Clothing Club and was awarded a trip to Columbus during Club VVinners' NVeek. Nellie. Treva, and Helen are Playing the Game on the basket ball team. This is just what we intend to do in life-play the game and play it square. Don't forget your motto, Seniors. A ONWARD! HUPNVARDIU IE lil f10l TI-IE SENIOR CLASS PROPI-IECY As the private secretary to the president of the great H. S. Firestone Rubber Corporation, I was transferred from the American office to the African oflice by the General Manager. Since it was not necessary for me to take up my work for two months, I decided to take an indirect route and see America first. The morning of july I0, 1946 found me leaving Akron to see the beautiful scenes of America. I planned to go westward and thence to South America. The large bus pulled up and soon we were speeding toward Chicago. NVe were within a mile of Chicago when the bus broke down. Garage men were summoned and we were pulled into a large garage. I knew it was too late for the train. so I stepped to the main office to inquire for a hotel. I opened the door and inquired of an elderly looking lady for a hotel. Upon look- ing up at the front window I noticed Millard Auto' Servicefy and immediately I recognized the lady as being my old classmate .Ruth Eby Millard. VVe talked together for some time. Ruth told me how they had started up business at West Alex. and through their great success there believed it well to come to Chicago. After an hourfs chat, I left for the hotel. The next morning I left at 6:l5, and we passed through the wheat section of the country. After many hours of riding we arrived at Denver. Miss VVatts, with whom I got acquainted while on the way, said she knew the place well and kindly asked me to go along with her. YVe took trips through the mountains and visited Colorado Springs. But dur- ing this time our friends told us about the wonderful 'broadcasting station. It aroused my curiosity so we went over. It was the TSM CTreva Spitler Murrayj broadcasting station-the largest in the United States. VVell, a few days later found me in California. Vxfhile I was walking through Hollywood gazing at the beautiful scenes used in movie productions, I saw Helen Barton posing as 'fMiss Americaf' I recognized her immediately by her youthful appearance. Three days later I arrived in South America. The cattle ranges on the llanos in the Qrenoco region were certainly beyond my comprehension. The climate was very much differentas I travelled southward, especially near the Amazon jungles. However, this part of the country was very rich in forest products, the most im- portant being rubber. I travelled on south to the highland plains of the southeastern Brazil where the climate was more invigorating. The large coffee plantations were of much interest to me, so I went out where they were picking the coffee berries. The manager. Mr. Meyers, was very kind. He invited me to his home to meet his wife and family. I was anxious to visit one of the family homes and see how the South American people lived. In a half hour we were walking up to the front door of a cozy little cottage. The mother was singing happily about her work. As the lady rolled her brown eyes up at me, I immediately recognized her as another of my classmates. Yes, it was Nellie. They asked me to stay there that night, and I did. In the evening we sat out in the open air and recalled our schooldayswuhow we had studied all about South America from A to Z in our Geographyf' A month later I was in Africa. I enjoyed my work, but the people and their customs were very much different to what I was accustomed. I did get some- what lonesome for awhile. There was much excitement in the town about something this morning. After inquiring I was told that a United States Missionary was doing such wonderful work. As it was my own country, I got a paper and read about it. It said that Glenn Brandenburg has just completed a great work in the missionary field. He has just succeeded in educating and converting 3,000 of the lowest type negroes found in the southern jungles of Africa, and is giving them training through the Brandenburg Missionary Schoolw dedicated to him in honor of his great work.

IUNIOR CLASS I-IITORY JUNIOR DATA The Junior Class ol Lanier Township High School for the school year of '25 and '26 has an enrollment of sixteen, which is greater by one than their enrollment for the freshman year. .

ACCOMPLISHMENTS The class has been rather active and carries with it no small amount of the high school talent. As Freshman, Suggs made the regular basketball team. Virgil Brubaker was elected as president of the class in '23, The class chose cream and red as their class colors. The pennant had the cream letters t'VVin by XVork placed on a red background, and the red letters L, H. S.-'27 on a cream background. The Sophomore year was not so promising except more boys turned out for athletics. The junior year has been the most outstanding for this class. The biggest part of the football team was composed of Juniors. Baughman as quarterback, Barnliart as hali- back, Klepinger as lialfback, Suggs as captain and fullback, Meyers as tackle, l-lamin as tackle, lililer as guard, and Nieman as center. U lil ll4l I-I IE! In October four Juniors were instrumental in forming the T. E. T. Club. This club is directly concerned with school activities and the promotion of good school spirit. Von Klepinger was elected president, Robert West vice president, and Harold Bangh- man secretary and treasurer. In the Christmas Seal sale the Juniors were victorious. They sold 2,025 stamps this year against 150 for last year. The Juniors have been successful in all their schemes to finance the Junior and Senior Reception. They have signed a contract agreeing to put on one of the best Lyceum courses to ever come to Lanier School. JUNIOR CLASS PROPHECY As I, Signor Eikenberry, the world's renowned crystal gazer, look into my glass, I predict the following future, ten years from now: First, l see a large, awkward gawky, professor of Agriculture at Ohio State, I see him as Glenn Barnhart, who attended Lanier High School and then went to Ohio State where he won high honors in Agriculture. Glenn always was a book- worm and is no better now than he was then. Now I see The NVelsh Art Studio where Mr. Von Klepinger is chief cartoonist for three daily papers. His helper and companion is Mr. Vernic Eby who edits a column for the Footlights Magazine in New York. Both of these fellows were always drawing cartoons in their books at school, but I Can't understand the name of the firm. Next I see a hard-boiled coach of football at the University of Southern California. VVhen these fellows get yellow, Harold, for it is Harold Baughman, gives them a speech on when he was a quarterback on the Lanier Varsity eleven. I don't know whether Harold's married or not, but he doesn't look as if he were living at a boarding house. Now I see two of the toughest fellows I have ever seen. They have a mining claim in Alaska,iwhere they are trying to get rich without working, as usual. It is Forrest Bell and Freddie Nieman, and Forrest still has his prominent upper lip, but he can't curl it now! Now I see an Automobile Sales and Service Station in Dayton, Ohio, under the name of The Berry Auto Sales Company. It is run by the Berry boys and Kenneth is the president of the company. They are very prosperous and Kenneth does not look the same as he did when he was in school. Now I see a large area of ground in New Jersey covered with White Leghorn chickens belonging to Brubaker, and Miley's Lay Neveri' Farm. Virgil is part owner and president, while Glenn is vice president and part owner. I don't know, but I think Glenn cleans out the coops and gathers the eggs when he's not down in Jersey City eating Marshmallow Fruits. Ralph Meyers used to burn up all of Frank's gasoline going to Gratis, but now he and Norma have settled down on the Meyer's homestead near Wheatville, and Ralph is a very influential farmer. I think it is about time he was settling down, for Ralph was of the roving sort. Next I see one of the leading prima donnas of the time, Miss Ruth Pottenger, with the Chicago Grand Opera Company. You know Ruth always was quiet 'and hard- working in the music class at Lanier. Now last I see a large Pineapple Farm in Cuba near Havana, owned by Suggs K lVest, with Ehler as their foreman. Bob is too busy to catch bugs but of any evening when the three gather around to tune in on H. C. R., the Hamm Radio Corporation, owned by Pearl Hamm, they always bring up old high school days and it seems George can't resist the temptation to say something about football and the A.

CRobert Rust and Evelyn Hartl. Twenty are in the Eighth: thirty-two in the Seventh. So long has the present incumbent held sway in Kingdom No. Seven, that eight milestones have become moss-covered. The Cognomens of Room Seven's inhabitants range nearly the entire length of the alphabet,-ambling from A until they nnally wag out at VV. The size of its citizens is so distributed that even the most iinieky are pleased,-- expanding from baby Elmer to the more graceful of the contrary sex. The Boys' Basketball Team had a perfect season,-in the lost column. The girls' team did as well. The satellites of the cinder path consist of 'fljoofyf' Shorty, Radio, VVag, Shif, the Coops, the Moseys, Tommy, XVak, Lucer, 'fBrown, and Hanini. Artie Brubaker brought home the bacon in the county eipherin' contest, while Shorty Tamplin had a look-in in the spelling. In retrospect we should say this has been a most prosperous year for us. l17iI lil lil FIFTH AND SIXTH GRADES Bottom Row Cleft to rightD4Elbert Campbell, Marcus Brubaker, Paul Moses, De- XVitt Crowe, Daniel Eby, Paul Erisman, James Cooper, Clyde Moses, Joseph Dailer, Henry Driver, Paul Nieman, Eugene Toops, Richard Gla11der.

FIFTH AND SIXTH GRADES Throughout the year we have striven to carry out the four-fold ideal of education, without which no process of development can be truly called education. Bible reading, Bible stories, or prayer, were introduced into the daily regime of ac- tivities. A'Apple rolls,'i and popcorn parties were quite popular. During inclement weather, every child had an opportunity to play daily in the gym- nasium. Basketball held sway with the older lads and lassies, while the smaller young- sters played various games, such as indoor baseball, schlaug, and volley ball, in addition to the Old Faithful ring games. Q Illness compelled VVard Brubaker and Irene Eubank to withdraw during the year. Those who moved away were Samuel Messick, Blanche Bennett, Denver Crowell, Clar- ence and Ruth Benner, Eldora and Orville Hall, Clyde, Carl and George Puckett, George and Dora Acton, VVilliam Jackson, Corwin Matthews, Ethel Jackson, and Williani Saunders. Jennie Hamm and Rawleigh Cooper were absent when the above picture was taken. An interesting fact about these grades is the prevalence of unique nicknames. Some of the most unusual are Daffodil, Bean, and BruieH among the boys, and Mousie, 'lCol:fee, and '4Margie for the girls.

THIRD AND FOURTH GRADES VVhen school opened in September there were eighty-four pupils in the Third and Fourth grades. The course of study, as scheduled by the state, has been followed and the work completed. More than the usual amount of supplementary work has been done in both grades. Quite a number of programs have been given by the pupils throughout the year. The children have completed the three books required for Reading Circle certiheates. Much enthusiasm was shown in a spelling contest between the two grades during the months of January, February and March. During the last week the score was held even making the resulting score a tie. Our recreation periods have consisted of physical exercises, games, and drills. The spirit of rivalry between these grades in their school work has at all times been accompanied by close relationship. l19l l l l i FIRST AND SECOND GRADES Bottom row Qleft to rightj-Herbert Howard, Unger Buckingham, Junior Paxson, Gerald DaHer, Thomas Hale, Myron Ulrich, Eugene Elliot, Donald Guntle, Junior Lan- dis, Dwight Lanthrop, Martin VVachtcl, Joseph Eby, Sherman Gilbert, James Summers.

FIRST AND SECOND GRADES Grades one and two started the year with an enrollment of ninety-four, this being the largest enrollment in the primary grades in the history of the school. At the close of school the enrollment was seventy-six. Those that withdrew from the number were: Richard Yost, Tressy Jones, Charles Davis, Zelma Matheny, Daniel Deaton, Sara Kreitzer, Laben Puckett, Grace Jackson, Robert Jackson, James VVright, Clarence Acton, Bruce Berry, Edith Hall, Helen Hall, Carl Saunders, Clyde Crowell, Willmur Witiglit, Robert Craner, Mark Deaton, Virginia Matthews, Margaret, Catharine and Carl Over- holser. Those who entered after the beginning of the year were Martha 'Plll'llC1', Neva Io Toops, Daniel Crigler, Glenna Howard, Ruby Noffsinger and Mildred Koons. Vlfe have covered the work as set forth by the State Course of Study together with much supplementary and outside material. Parties and entertainments have been given during the year to add interest to our daily routine of school work, which have been enjoyed by the children and their parents. During the winter months physical exercises were given in the auditorium and consisted chiefly of games and rythinic plays. VVe have worked and played together and have grown and improved through both.

As a curtain-raiser for Lanier's grid season the Lanier eleven invaded the camp of the Eaton eleven and played a scoreless tie. This also was Eaton's first game for this season. It was really the first year of football for Eaton in five years. The game and results were as follows: The Eaton eleven chose to defend the west goal of the West Decatur gridiron and also kicked off to Lanier. The first quarter was played in Lanier's territory and neither team gained much when it came to the real test. The second quarter Lanier had the edge on Eaton most of the time and was within scoring distance but failed, due to a fumble. VVhen thc whistle sounded for the half the ball was in midfield in Lanier's possession. The score at half: Eaton Og Lanier O. After a twenty-minute intermission. Lanier kicked off to Eaton and the ball was returned for about twenty yards. Again Eaton outplayed the Ma-- roon and Cream, but did not get within dangerous range of the goal. Most of the last quarter was played in the rain. This quarter L. H. S. completely outclassed the Eaton eleven but failed to score. The final score: Lanier Og Eaton O. The outstanding players for Eaton were Druley, Baker, and Lucas, while for Lanier Suggs, Hamm, and Suman were the best. OCT. 16--L. H. S. vs. CAMDEN The second game of the season' was played with Camden on the local grid., It rained throughout the entire game. The gridiron was covered with water and in some places it was over ankle deep. This game was also a tie as the preceding one, O-0. The Game was full of thrills from the sound of the whistle till the end. Camden had the advantage probably due to their heavy line, which is of a great advantage on wet grounds. Lanier, however, was off on their end runs due to lack of good interference. There was no outstanding star or player in this game. A IE! IE! l22l El lil OCT. 23-L. H. S. vs. CAMDEN Vtfith due determination to win Lanier journeyed to Camden and de- feated the gridders of that town Z0-l4, in a very fast and hard fought game. ln the opening of the game Camden kicked to Lanier and we returned the ball to the forty-yard line where we were held for downs. The hrst quarter went rather slow but in the second quarter Lanier scored two touchdowns but won only one of her trys for points. The second half showed Camden coming back with lots of iight and they scored two touchdowns in quick succession. and made both of their trys for points good. Score at third quarter. Camden 14g Lanier l3. ln the last quarter Lanier outplayed Camden in all departments and in the few minutes of the last quarter, George, halfback of L. H. S., recovered a ball off a broken drop kick and scored a touchdown. Klepinger's try for point was good. The final whistle then sounded and the score was Lanier 20, Camden l4. NOV. 6-OXFORD vs. LANIER After the Lanier gridders had recuperated from the victory they scored over Camden the preceding Friday, they played Oxford on the opponent's field. This game was rather slow on Lanier's part due to the absence of Captain Suggs from the lineup in the backfield. But we succeeded in hold- ing them to a scoreless tie O-O. This was the third game out of four we played to a scoreless tie. The first quarter found Oxford outplaying Lanier on offense but Lanier put up a good defensive game. The second quarter Lanier pepped up a lit- tle and held Oxford to very few substantial gains. VV'e were doing fairly well on end runs which was our mainstay. The third quarter Oxford was twice within six inches of a touchdown but our line held and threw them for losses. This quarter Oxford again outplayed us on offense. The last quarter was just a seesaw back and forth and the game ended in a scoreles tie. NOV. 20-EATON vs. LANIER This game was played at Lanier. Both teams showed remarkable im- provement. lfaton seemed to have improved the most from the looks of the hnal score. Score: Eaton 34, Lanier O.

The teams battled back and forth. The first half Alex. getting a touchdown and a point after touchdown. Lanier duplicated their feat. Score at half: West Alex. 75 Lanier 7. The next half started and Alex. got another touchdown but failed to get the extra point. From then on Lanier completely outplayed Alex. mak- ing one first down after another. but when we would get within scoring as ks E3 distance we would fail or fumble. The game ended with VV. A. H.

George Suggs, Harold Baughman, Ralph Meyer, Ray Suman, Von Klepinger. The graduating class of 1925 took with them four members of the Var- sity basketball quintet. Their absence no doubt was noticed in the first few games, but the reserves of last yearys squad Filled each vacancy very well. Coach Hoerner issued a call for basketball men, and nineteen responded. The brightest prospects were Captain Suggs, Suman, Klepinger, Meyers, Baughman, Miley, Hamm, and Bell. There were also a few yearlings out for the team. The season was very successful in that only one game was lost up to the semi-finals in the County Tourney.

One has often noticed the emblem of club work, the four-leafed clover. Lucky is the boy belonging to a 4-H Club, receiv- ing training as the pledge denotes, giving my head to clear thinking, my heart to greater loyalty, my hands to longer service, and my health to better living-for my club, my community, and my country. The 4-H work constitutes the Pig, Calf and Poultry Clubs, all of which have been organized in our school. The Pig Club is outlined in three demon- strations of approved practices in pig rais- ing and service management. CID Market- ing, C21 Breeding, C39 Sow and Litter XVork. In this work, a boy takes over the feed- ing and care of a pig before it is 84 days old. He keeps a complete record of his labor and expenses up to and including the County Fair. At which time he will exhibit the pig in competition with pigs belonging to club boys in the county. Poultry and Dairy Calf Club work is con- ducted in a similar manner, only the dairy calf club work continues over a period of three years. It isn't all work in the 4-H Clubs, for every year, a county club camp is held. In the past this county camp has been held in Lanier township. This work and play, under State Leaders, baseball, singing, camp fire talks to make up the daily 1 week of organized the supervision of competitive games, and speaking, goes routine. GIRLS' 4-H CLUBS In 1925 Lanier's Food and Clothing Clubs had a very successful year under the leader- ship of Miss Mallow and Miss Lucille Stone- road. The Sew-Sew-Sew Club was the largest clothing club in the county, having an en- rollment of twenty-three. The first or or- ganization meeting was held before the close of school at which the following officers were elected. President, Luella Campbell: Vice President, Mary Aukerman: Secretary, Lela Campbell, Reporter, Ethel Rhoades. The work in the Clothing Club included the first, second and fourth years as outlined for clubs throughout Ohio. The Foods Club which was organized un- der the name of Lanier junior Helpers, had a membership of twelve girls with the fol- lowing officers: President, Hazel Bennett: Secretary, Louise Sayler, Reporter, Martha Coffman. The work in this club consisted of the third and fourth years as outlined. Lanier was justly proud when Mary Auk- erman was chosen county champion in club work and was rewarded with a trip to Co- lumbus. Five girls from the Foods and Clothing Clubs attended the 4-H Club camp which was held during the week of August 14. At camp the girls were instructed by competent leaders besides enjoying the companionship of boys and girls from all over the county who were interested in club work. The clubs expect to continue in 1926 with an enthusiastic group of girls striving to place Lanier at the head in club work. El El i421 LANIER FOX DRIVE 'llhe iirst fox drive to he held in this locality was staged in Lanier tuwnship Ilecemher 30, l925. 'llhe funr teains started on the four sides of Lanier town- ship and hegan to close in arunnd the sclioolliouse where they were to finish. 'llhe captains were llill l'ryor on the west. Berley Barton on the east, -laines llainiltun can the north. and Cyrus Kiracofe on the south side, and their assist- ants, .Xll were shouting lmluwing' horns, heating pans and making all kinds of noise tu scare up the foxes. ,Xhout noon they hegan to l.O1'l'll their line around the school huuse. 'llhey had no foxes, hut ,less Glander had a large coon. 'llwu foxes were seen in the circle while it was two hruken to hinder their escape and huth Reynards exer- cised their cunning and eluded their pursuers. After closing' in and discussing the foxes they didn't get they made ready for the splendid dinner prepared hy the l'arent-'lleaehers' Association.

This Association has made it possible for us to have music in our school by employ- ing a music instructor. 'llhe fox drive which VVZIS sponsored by the P. 'll. A. did much to develop community spirit. It was a great success as far as the financial income was concerned, but not from fox fur standpoint. The Association has been holding an an- nual Fall Festival which has provided much entertainment for the people and aided the Association in securing the necessary amount of funds. The monthly meetings have always had some sort of an entertaining program along with the business session. The pupils of the school have given plays, drills, etc., at these meetings. An old fashioned spelling school was the special feature at our meeting. Vari- ous times we have had educational lilins from the N. C. R. For our meetings we have been fortunate enough to have such people with us as our county superintendent, Mr. C. R. Coblentz, Judge Landis of Eaton, Ohio: Miss Emma Gerkins, president of the VVomen's Feder- ated Clubs of the State of Ohio: and Miss Ruth Bridge, a welfare worker from the General Hospital of Cincinnati. Much credit should be given to this year's officers for the work which has been ac- complished. President-Mrs. Mary Glander. Vice President-Mrs. Rosie Flory. Secretary-ClVlissD Zelma Swihart.
