Martin- Dad, I'm some big gun at high school. Father- Well, then, why don't I get better reports? Commencement Number T H E R E D A N D B L A C K Page Nine Till We Meet Again Perhaps we'll meet on a great highway, Traveling with a vaudeville play, Ur maybe it will be on a foreign shore, Where 'ave will be learning more and more. I'ntil we meet may we be brave and true, Whether the skies are grey or blue, Let us not forget our classmates dear Whether we may be far or near. R. E. T. '24 1 Classmates Classmates are friends, who are never forgotten. For four years, the friendship has grown stronger and stronger. Although at times. we have l1ad angry thoughts. they have lasted only for the time being. At the times, when we have failed to do our lessons, we were closer to each other's hearts than ever. The teachers realized our feelings, and would smile under their breath. Our high school classmates have come into our hearts as ones to stay, forever, like the river that flows on and on. Now, that we are nearing the time to step over into the great world, we appreciate the friendships of our fellow students. Let the class of 1924 leave dear old L. H. S. with a tender feeling for the class- mates and the faculty. H. I. L. '24. Smiles KVhat do smiles stand for to school mates? Just notice! When fellow-students meet after they have been separated for some time from their associates of high school life, it is a smile that each has for the other. And we, too, have and will continue to have smiles for our school mates, for Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors alike, smiles that hes-peak fond memories. Eleanor Kibler, '2-4. - College Our high school career over, it is time to devote our minds to a higher education. It is the most important thing in life. Without it, one is seriously handicapped, and only by a great eEort can one succeed. College best prepares a boy or girl for any career or profession that he wishes to enter. This preparation assists the young man or woman to begin his life. Where he ends, depends on the quantity of work and interest that he puts in his efforts later. No student who has an .opportunity of such fine possibilities should disregard it. Catherine Hodman, '24, ' Tl1ere's a Long, Long Trail We are about to enter upon a long journey and whether the path will be rough or smooth, remains to be seen. In fact. that it is up tc- us. for life, really, is what we make it. There are hardships along every pathway, andthe manner, in 'which we greet and bear these struggles, determines part of our success in any type of careerf There will be inevit- able sorrows which 'sve must face-sorrows, which may change our entire course in life. However, we nmst take life, as it comes, and be ready to grin and bear it. Every individual has his or her dreams of what he wishes to be some day. Whatever our air castles are, let's build them high and care for them properly so that they won't perish. We have, at least, reached the coveted goal and are Seniors of L. H. S. VVe have secured the foundation for a higher education. And, now the thing to do is to go on. bravely and wisely, until we hit the long, long trail of success. ' Vera Shirley, '24, Looking Backward As we mentally review our High School lives, we find many outstanding features. As a class, we have enjoyed many good times together and many times have we had occasion to allow our heads to swell with pride over the achievements of our members. Do your remember the Junior Party at Katherine ML-Ewen's home? Or rather, could you ever forget it? And the night Sid won first in the Larkin Speaking contest, and then our pride in the way he carried off the honors at Batavia? Could we be otherwise than proud WVll9ll we consider our athletic teams, Our composed largely of members of the Class of 192-l. Senior year is hrim full of pleasant memories, the Senior Play. Oh, those rehearsals! I! The Senior Ball-was there ever a finer one? The never to be forgotten lVash- ington trip stands prominently forth in our minds. Fan we doubt when we hear our elders say- Youre spending your best day now? Can we help wondering what the future holds for the Class of 192-1? L. H. '12-I. Farwell The time has come for the Class of 1924 to leave L. H. S. We're sorry to leave. The four years have been short. We hope that while we have been here 'we have done the sort of thing that wins approval. We have tried. Wehave learned things. From books, of course. Hut from experience we have learned things that are even more important. Some of us go on to higher institutions of learning, yet all of us go on to learn from the experience of the years. But now and in the future we have only the best of thoughts and wishes for L. H. S. Farewell. dear companions, we now 1!lllSf part And feelings of sadness fill every heart: The days that are gone hover lovingly near, And bring to our faces a smile and a tear. The hours in the schoolroom, the friends of play, The teachers who led us in wisdom's way. The hours when we rambled in Le Roy high. We think of them all, as we bid them Good-bye. The school-days are over and life begins, And he who has courage the battle fwins: ' Farewell! and may Heaven its favor extend That we may our friendships renew at the end.

Our heaviest hitter was up next, so the pitcher purposely passed him, thinking to get the next maui a recognized pcor hitter. To. the surprise of all, he hit a swift single. filling the bases. 'The remaining men to bat were nervous and tired, but their fingers twitched around a bat, for they knew ho.v much depended upon the next latter. The coach was frantic. He saw that the rest of the fellows were in no condition to play. As his eyes swept the bench, his gaze fell upon Fat. Fat's calm. untroubled look seemed to answer the question. Why ll0t he? Fat could do no worse than the rest of the boys in their present' condition. The coach walked over to him and said, 'with deep emotion, Fat, I hope you realize the position you are to be placed in. The honor, the glory, the cup, all depend upon you? G0 to bat. That was all he said. Fat said even less, for without a word, and with a look on his face that puzzled me, took his place at tl.e plate. As he stood up to bat, the grand- stands shook with cheers. for one couldn't help liking hi111. Fat struck at two balls. but missed by at least a foot. The coach threw up his hands. barely able to restrain him- self. Suddenly. all was changed. The pitcher, a fresh fel- low, threw over a slow ball, with a remark that should never have been made. With all of his two hundred and fifty pounds, Fat struck. and except for the accompanying crack, no o-ne would have known he had hit it. Far, far up sped a small round object with the speed of a rocket. All four men had reached home before it landed. Since Fat was no Paddock, you can imagine the force of the hit. Were 'we proud of Fat? I'll say we were. There 'was no use cf playing longer, since we had already won, although there were but two outs Of course Bridgeboro was sore. although they could not help but admire Fat, I have never seen our hero so happy in his life, for. he had just overheard a girl exclaim, Isn't. he wonderful I Eugene Morris '26 The Value of Education Education plays a most important part in the life of all civilized people. Why is it so vital a factor? It. has the tendency to a better understanding among people and among' nations. There is no doubt that a pe1'son without any education will have very little chance for success in life. There is no legitimate reason why a man should he unable to attain some degree of learning, unless he is physically or mentally hindered. ln the majority of cases, it is the fault of the rulers of different countries, wl1o are not looking forward to the welfare of their people, but for the acculnulation of royal power. They prefer to keep their subjects in ignorance in order to avoid the spreading of ideals. They are thus lowering the standard of civiliza- tion ix1 their country and this will sooner or later lead to a lowering of standards throughout the world. The llnited States. which in comparison to other coun- tries is very young, ranks among the first in respect to its educational opportunities. Possibly at the present time, although education has taken such a long stride, we might imagine that after all education is not as vital as it seems. Let us acquaint ourselves with a few of the incidents which took place during the Middle Ages and see what part Iyarning played during those years of civic strife. Educa- tion in reality led to the foundation of large and prosperous cities and then in tur11 to strong and powerful nations. It also led to the decline of Feudalism, wl1icl1 kept the people from advancement. During those days. Latin was the unil versal language, and was used in the church and school. From the days of Adam, education has been the keynote in all important matters. From the beginning of recorded time, learning has been the basis of the life of every com- munity. We have then as students the satisfaction of be- ing under the influence of the most signilicant thing in the world. It may be said by some that obtaining an education will not lead to anything. that a person should profit more by spending his time in working for wages. There are two aspects in which we may view luunan existence. We may consider the purpose of life to be the accumulation of money. If we want to accumulate great wealth. we should obviously not take up any profession. Except through some lucky accident, the professional man never attains enormous wealth. The other conception of human exis- tence is that 'which we may call building a life. This con- ception recognizes that learning is essential to a life of success tlllll happiness. lt uses learning as a basis for the development of the individual and his capacity for ser- vice to the whole of his country. The great majority of the educated people f1'on1 the beginning have endeavl red to make learning the building of life for themselves and their children, 11ot merely the means of building up capital, nor of making a livelihood, but primarliy for making life hap- pier, more useful and better adapted to the interests of every-day society. For really in building a life there is nothing else equal to learning. I-Education has increased immensely in our modern civilization. because of the well organized governments. The capable, educated man has within him many of the resources which will enable hhn to build that which he desires and is essential, if his career as a learned man is to be useful to himself, to his family, and to his community. For the most part we owe our prosperity. our high type of civilization and our advance- me11t to learning. Just what learning has done for mankind is not dennitely known, but in reality it has proven its value and distinction in many instances. Lincoln through study, thought and effort educated himself and secured the highest position in the country. Many men of Lin- coln's time and more of recent years have won renown. fame, admiration and esteem of all the people through their ability as leaders and their knowledge of wordly affairs, both obtained through education. An unlearned man is practically uncultured and only partially civilized. Most of the lawlessness that is going on in every country is due to the lack of learning. It is learning that leads to culture. a better type of civilization and n higher moral standard. Ignorant persons are not law abiding. they do not understand for 'what principles their country stands, and, consequently, do as they think best regardless of the effect it may have on other persons. They do not take any interest in their government and do not form any politi' Page Twelve T H E R E D A N D B L A C K Commencement Number cal opinion. A person lacking learning is in the same class as the hermit, who is secluded in some distant, uninhabited place, where he is shut off from all worldly news. Since all news is spread through the daily papers, it is imposv sible for any one to know what is going on about him if he is unable to 1'ead. What education has do11e in the past, it will without doubt do in the future. Charles Mancuso, '25. What's The Use What's the use of always scowling When the weather's kinda dark? What's the use of always sulking If you cannot have a lark? What's the 'usevof crabbing' T - If your work is hard as sin? Why be melancholy? Why not employ a grin? What's the use of always knocking If you cannot have your way? Why not help instead of hinder And you will iind that it will pay. What's the use of dodging If you can not stand the gaff? Why not face the bloomin' music With a fearless sorta laugh? What's the use of bawling When we make mistakes? Why not up and swallow When there-'s medicine to take? XVhy criticize the teacher If you do not like her style? It makes things much more cheerful If you'll only crack a smile. L'envoie Just remeinber, if you care to, That your face will look like sin, If you can't forget your troubles And remember just to grin. But if grinning seems beneath you And y0ll'I'9 lindin' rough your path, .lust think what fools the mortals be XVho can't iind time to laugh. And think over those you like best, You will find it worth your while, Alltl aren't they, as a rule, the o11es Who grin and laugh and smile? M. E. G. On The High Seas On the high seas! What a wealth of mysteries and traditions surround these words. To some they bring thoughts of bold adventures, of daring sea rovers, and of buccaneers. when the world was younger than it is now. Brave minds sail-ed then on braver deeds, and their con- quests are yet related with admiration. To others, the picture of a blue sea, sparkling in the sun, dotted 'with Blue white sails or occasionally an ocean liner, appears seas, lying tranquilly under the sky, or scintillating with white-topped wwaves! Surely 'there is nothing to pare with it in all the world. But it is necessary to leave the romance of the sea and turn to more important things. Down through all history, that nation has been great which had an invinci- ble Ifleet. Begin at the earliest times, and recall those powerful countries which bordered the Mediteranean, the lands from which all culture of today is derived. The Phoenicians sent their ships out to the farthest' shores of the .sea, .and even beyond, to colonize. to discover new lands, and 'to trades Greater than Phoenicia, Greece' then arose. The Aegean was hero, and all the countries were made to feel her broadening influence. The ships of Greece brought fame, luxury, and -.vealth, then disappeared in the midst of time, giving way to ncnver strength. In their turn, the other nations of the Mediteranean had their rise and fall. History the11 passes on its way from the East to the West. where England stands out, an island sur- rounded by water. Her lleets were the only means of defense, and seldom was England surpassed in naval com- bats. Across the Atlantic, the colonies which she had es- tablished, i11 time conquered both on land and on sea. Thus one can trace the growth of power and civilization from ancient times down to the present day. Dorothy Decker, '25.

We appreciate all your efforts, Miss Ripton, which are a reflection of your contact with school and its activities. Borrowing and Lending Neither a borrower nor a lender be, said Polonius in a farewell message to his son, He also said 'tI.oan oft loses both itself and friend. Polonius referred to money, but this same saying can be applied to every kind of bor- rowing and lending. Money should never be lent or bor- rowed except on a business basis. This may prove to be helpful for both parties concerned. There are, however, other methods and types of lend- ing and borrowing. These may increase and strengthen friendship. Books can be exchanged and both parties will receive pleasure. Anyone, 'who makes it a rule never to lend or borrmv a book, assumes a seltish and unsocial at- titude toward himself and others. If you Iind that you have made a lnistake in lending a book to an irresponsible borrower, you can ask for it in such a way that it will not embarrass the person. but if it should be money that was lent, the situation would be very complicated. The borrowing and lending of ideas and opinions stimu- lates interest. but the borrowing and lending of money could never produce such results. Don't Expect Your Ships to Come in if You Haven't Sent Them Out It is only human nature to shirk and draw back when it comes to nvork: so what can we expect to accomplish if we try in a half-hearted manner? Very many have the ambition to do something great, but very few have the ambition to stick to it after they have started. XVe have the ambition to start our Ceasar, for instance. but are we able to presevere till the lesson is completed? It is the same way with Geometry when the originals are ditl'erent. XVe wanted a school paper and we were allowed to have it. Then we chose people who we tho't seemed most able to make the paper a success. They had both the qualities of ambition and preseverance, ever striving to make each issue better than the former. They have succeeded. but not without difficulty. Some are born great: some achieve greatness: and cthers have greatness thrust upon them. Not many of us are born great or have greatness thrust upon us. so if we wish it. we have to climb a long hard ladder to get it: but when it has been received we are more pleased with it by struggling for it tl1a11 by just having it come to us. We may send out our ship well-laden, but it may never return. Nevertheless we will keep on trying till we are able to send out a ship which will come back laden with success of the highest degree. Marian Kettle 26. Success XVhat wealth he possesses, he who has fought. conquer- ed, and achieved success! His is not wealth in a material sense, but in the feeling that the tight has been his. We struggle through high school. bewailing the task of our studies. Yet how proud is he who steps forward on that never-to-he-forgotten night to grasp a diploma! Although this is only the tirst step toward success. it forms the foun- dation o11 which all future success will be based. Therefore. students of L. H. S., do not falter nor hesitate until you have mastered and acquired that foundation. , L. V.

Miss Lena Lewis, instructor of English in the high school, will not return next year. She expects to take a college course. During the past school year, Miss Lewis has been advisor of the Literary Department of the Red and Black. Miss Mary Sweet and Jane Donnan of the high school faculty spent the Easter vacation in Washington, D. C. They report a most enjoyable time. A daughter, named Marcia Ann, was recently born to Mr. and Mrs. Frank Metzger of Rochester. Mrs. Metzgar. before her marriage, was Miss Gladys Westerman, Instruc- tor in Homemaking, at Le Roy High School. A daughter was born to Mr. and Mrs. Frank Flaherty of Rochester a short time ago. Mrs. Flaherty was Miss Catherine Weaver, of the High School faculty. A daughter, Betty Jane, was horn to Dr. and Mrs. Irwin A. Cole on January fourth. Mrs. Cole was Miss Ethel Spicer a grade teacher in the LeRoy Public School. Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Gregg and M1'. and Mrs. Louis Sindlinger visited Le Roy recently. Mr. Gregg, who was the former instructor in Mathematics, is novw Assistant Professor at Corning High School, and Mr. Sindlinger. who was Physical Training Director during 1922-23, is engaging in the Insurance business in Elmira. Mr. Francis, who was the Instructor in Agriculture sev- eral years ago, now has charge of the Agricultural inter- ests ot the entire county, and superintends the farm where hoys in college may take up their work. He visited thc High School a short time ago. Like the Romans of old, we are sending hostages to Batavia next year in the person of M1'. Pierce. What other conclusion could we draw than that Batavia is jealous of our good teams and wants our coach because of his reputa- tion for making teams? We're mighty sorry to have him go, especially to Bata- via, but, with the start he has given our teams, we ought to be up i11 the Cunningham class next year instead of the Pierce tarrowl. We'll try to make him feel proud of us even though he is our rival.

Little did we think when we were studying India in the Art Club two ytars ago that we'd be seeing it. and sa SGOII. We 'were called at 2 a. ln. and we got np! After a bite to eat, we mounted cur steeds and began a most wonder- ful climb six milt s, along a woo-:led path in the moon- light-each turn in the road brought a new and more distant view and we hoped against hope for a clear day. At the very summit we were rewarded with a perfect view fthe magnilicient snow covered Kinchinjimga range of 17 mountain peaks-which. though not so high, at 50 miles instead of 100 is more beautiful and impressive than Mt. Everest. Way in the distance the Three Sisters, also snow capped, peeked up at us and once or twice we could see faintly the outline of Mt. Everest 222,000 feet high. the very tcp of the world! Sunday is market day in Darjeling and they wefe all there. The market is down several levels below our hotel. Along three sides of a great square runs a low one story bhilding, each ten feet of which is a different shop, where every adornment dear to their hearts can be bought, ankle bracelets of silver, toe and nose rings of gold, colored neck- laces and silver chains on which are lmng either great flat silver charms set in torquoise or overlapping silver pieces. the entire family exchequer-no end of kashmir scarfs-lots of roses or white with magenta borders'-some green-but eveything bright. The center of the square was filled with people wearing this kind of iinery, moving among other merchants who sat on the ground around their wares, grain cr fruit or flowers-while some more enterprising ones car- iled their stores about with them, jangling beads or Jaipur brass bells. I wish there were some way to make- you see, hear, and feel the throb of color in that primitive, holiday, dark skinned crowd, all framed in with the Cryptomeria covered mountains. ---- BATAVIA--LE ROY Batavia came to Le Roy on Thursday, May 20, for the iirst of two games between the two teams. The teams ap- peared very evenly matched and there was a large crowd out to witness the game. At the beginning of the game, Beckwith was on the mound for Batavia with Heineck opposing him. There was no scoring on either side for the first two innings, but in the third, Ile Roy's intield blew up and Batavia scored four I'llIlS. After that fatal inning Batavia scored only one more run while holding Le Roy scoreless. Maloy relieved Heineck in the seventh inning! and pitched well while he nvorked. The pitching was strong on both sides with Batavia's moundsman having the better of the argument! Beckwith allowed Le Roy only two hits, while Batavia scored only one really earned run. The Batavia team accorded their pitcher excellent support, not an error being chalked up against them. Too ,much Beck- with, those iniield errors in the third, and Le Roy's llitiillg weakness in the pint-hes spelled defeat for the locals. However, LeRoy has another chance later in the season and hopes to turn the tables on their rivals.

There was 0119 l1oy. the bully of tl1e town, wl1c- was always trying.: to play a mean trick on us. Une day. one of our bunch saw him go in SNVlIllllllll9.! alo11e. XVe got together Eilltl quictlf slipped up to his clothes. Une kept watnh of him while the rest of us l'llilXV- ed beef. We turned his clothes inside out. tied tl1e111 i11 many iltl1'll knots. and saturated them with muddy water from a nearby puddle. We then retreated. to Wzllcll the etfect of our work. He 0111119 out soo11, feeling good after his swim b11t his face. when he sanv his clothes. was too funny to describe. We laughed until we thougrht our sides would split. behause of his queer antirs i11 trying: to untie the k11ots. XVe saw l1inl go 1101116 the back way. looking too ridiculous for 1lI1YIlllIl2f. We always thought he knew wl1o did it but l1e never did anything: about it. To think about it, makes 111e wish I was young: again. Alfred Decker. Room 2-I. Tomorrow To 1l1USf of us tl1e word Ui0lIl0'l'I'0XVu just means another day of drudgxery i11 scl1ool. Each day we come to school to be driven to study things. that will never, do us lilly good. but little do we think tl1at our teacher or 'ttask masters are preparing us for a place ill tl1e world. Why quit school when one reaches tl1e axe of sixteen? More interest should be SIIINVII by tl1e pupils ill the scl1ool and tl1e big opportun- ity otfered tl1e111 by tl1e present school and tl1e new one. For it isn't every Cllllllllllllliy of this size that will go to the expense of providing means of education just to be Illfllell IIUNVII. A few years fI'Ulll IIUXV if one l1asn't an education he will be out of the game entirely. It is for llS to make our if?-lll0l'1'0XVS Vlllllli if we are to IIQCOIIIQ tl1e leaders of this country. Lewis Steverson. The New School The contractors are beginning to get b11sy upon tl1e tl1e new school is built the people of Le Roy yvill be Very proud of it. This school will be located Oll Wolcott street beside the old Art Uollege. It will face the 0-at-ka Creek. lt xvill be larger than tl1e present High School and with 311 of the moderii iinprovenients. Around the school tl1e green lavwn and bushes that will bear brilliantly colored iiowers will greatly improve the appearance of the building. Only tl1e t-Erades will occupy this new school. The Junior and Senior H1311 School will reinain at the present school. Our only regret IS tl1at we will llllf occupy a portion of the wonder- ful new school. L. R. C. Lynn Salisbury ll2lS entered the S-A grade from tl1e Batavia High School. He is surely a great aid to our class. A Doi-otl1y and Marjorie Robinson have also entered the 8-A grade from York.
