Yonder shines The Golden Gate which opens to A land of everlasting joy. To really gain An entrance to that lovely land You must show the deeds you have done. Gracious deeds----- They’re just the little things you do For bitter foe or loving friend. Never more Will life be reckoned by the big Events, but, by the good you do. Let time hold The gracious things we strive to gain. Health, wealth, and love result in joy. Let our good deeds Lead on to joys that animate Men to success and happiness. Praise be to deeds For they are the things that bring us Through the arch of the Golden Gate. Immortal deeds---- They can not die, they are the things That make the soul of you and me. Oh deeds divine------ We owe you for this happiness, For this joy, for this bliss. And so, you class of nineteen twenty-five, If you desire to reach that goal, success, Remember then the motto of your class. —JOSEPH SMYTHE WALSH. —25— (Class iflsttn m 'E, the January Class of 1925, are about to set out upon the untraveled road that lies before us— the road of life. Like the knights of old, we shall endeavor to accomplish things which will be worthy of us. Unlike the knights who conquered with sword and lance we shall perform wondrous deeds with trained minds and bodies working in co-operation. When we embark upon our future careers, we shall all undoubtedly follow different paths of life work, but no matter what course we take, we shall always remember the battle-cry of the knights of old, “Factis Iudicemur” In future life, may this motto shape our destinies and inspire us to great accomplishments. —26— (Elastf Mown id UR class flower, the tea-rose, has IjLJ symbolic as well as physical beauty. It has all the attributes of a perfect flower—dignity, grace and patriotism. The color denotes truth, loyalty, moral and physical excellence. We, the members of the January Class of 1925, have selected the tea-rose because of these six essential virtues that are embodied in every successful man and woman. Without these six qualities a man is a spiritual failure. In most instances a spiritual failure is a moral failure, and there is no real place in society for unprincipled men and women. So we, the January Class of 1925, would benefit by cultivating these six virtues as our aims through life, because without them we can never achieve success. (EIubh (Unions |j UR colors, jade green and silver, IJ[J harmonize perfectly. The green is symbolic of strength. When we are confronted with the perplexing problems in life we shall need strength of mind and body to overcome them. When temptations are placed in our paths during the course of our life work, we shall need will power to resist them. Also, dear classmates, bear in mind that only through unity of mind and body shall we acquire the power to attain success. The silver in our combination is meant to suggest peace of mind and body. It will be much easier to face the hard knocks in life if we keep calm. When our minds are troubled, let us think of the sweet peace of silver and go about our daily tasks with a quiet demeanor. Let us also remember that the world will respect and admire us more, if it knows that whatever happens we will be brave and quiet. —27— January ’25 Class Song Oh, cherished moments of the past, Where are your former claims? We now reflect on school days past And dream of future aims. Four pleasant years have glided by. In dear old L. H. S. We’ll never let thee die, dear school, Dear school of happiness. Our High School days are over, And now our ways must part. But always by “Silver and Green” We shall be one at heart. Chorus: Fare thee well, dear Lincoln, halls and cherished rooms, The time has come, dear classmates, when we must part from you, Though in the future we’ll not be with thee, We will e’er be loyal Lincoln High to thee! —ELSIE KORYTA. —28— 0 1 Ctolory Br� r.« —29— Class History f yWAS a cold, snowy morning ill In January When we entered these majestic doors To start our high school careers. We thought ourselves very clever When we clattered around for Weeks in our coats And galoshes— For some of us had no lockers. Aside from that one burst Of prominence We were very inconspicuous. Oh, exceedingly so! The sophomores seemed like gods And goddesses to us. They Called us “flats” And everything, and still we Bowed in obeisance before them. We went to games then, For they were Novelties. That year Lincoln Won the championship In basketball! How distant that time seems! That same year Marked the last Lincoln Circus. Our first. But the visions of Clowns Or the strains of “Margie” Shall ne’er fade from our memories. When we were sophs Some of our members did themselves Proud. They joined two clubs— Just like that! Friendship, Science and Glee Club Were the favorites. The boys were not so socially inclined, But they Made up for it in Military Training. How well those Uniforms Fitted their manly figures— Rich but not gaudy! Ah Freshman! It was our turn to call You “flats” “And—we—did” The next January found us Juniors. No longer were we among the Meek and lowly— We had come into our own; We were allowed to attend informal; We were allowed to join more clubs. Indeed— We had responsibilities! And privileges! Who Will ever forget the Military Meet at Edgewater Park. And how it Rained, And poured, And everyone got drenched? We were all Responsibilities When we got home! Seniors at last. Alas— Of our brave band a goodly number Have fallen by the wayside. There were now but a scant Three-score Of us to face the ordeals presented by Orations. We “rose” to the occasion— Showing such heroism as the Knights of old possessed! An unorganized group cannot stand— So we organized. We chose Paul and Helen to lead us. —30— John to keep us financially Unembarrassed, And Vlasta to write down all Momentous happenings. Well done, ye faithful workers! Our class is progressive. So we formed the first dancing Class Lincoln ever had. O Gym, Scene of much painful embarrassment And endeavor. What tales could you not tell? Our first informal was a “Lucky” success. Friday the thirteenth! But what matter? Everyone partook of the Royal punch and Lorna Doones— And felt the better for it. Yes, and we entertained Again! This time with a Football Banquet. The faculty were there, Also the 12 A girls, And last—last But not least, Our valiantly victoriously vicious Football boys Came and ate of the Dainties. We had fun though, anyway! Finis! I’m not going to tell of “seas of life,” Or about “four years of weathering the strife,” But simply say In a simple way That: We’re glad we came to Lincoln; And we wish that we could stay. But. you see, ’25 is not made like that. We’re going into the world— And maybe, Some day, Lincoln will be proud of us! —Cora Bratt. —31— 71 Class Prophecy January. 1935. Ten years ago today I left dear old Lincoln High with a diploma in my hand and a desolate expression on my face. I had to start anew. The good old days were over. As I had always been interested in the nursing profession, the following fall I betook myself to a college where that profession was taught. Several years later I emerged with another diploma, feeling as if I could conquer the world. Where did I go from there? I caught the next boat to Japan. Why? Russia and Japan were at war because of their opposite views concerning “The League of Nations. Hundreds of nurses went abroad to help during that great struggle- As I entered the hospital at Yokahama I was preceded by a slender and stately matron. When she turned around, to my great surprise, I saw Clarion Tatousek. After Clarion discovered gold in her back yard, which made her a lady of leisure, she spent a great deal of time entertaining the soldiers. In 1933 the war having ended, I took a trip to China before returning to the United States. At Shanghai I met Lester Roth, who was engaged in exporting genuine Chinese Mah Jong sets to all parts of the world. Lester told me that our old friends, Johnny Gulick and Nick Ferencz were fishing for sardines over in the southern part of France on the shore of the Mediterranean. Lester’s private secretary, Rosemary Wagner, informed me that Ruth Ahlgrim was a missionary. At that time Ruth was working in the northern part of Peking. At Tientsin, which is a few hours’ journey from Peking, I found Walter Beier manager of “The Choo Chin Chow Hotel. John Ziemba. who had mastered sixteen languages, acted as interpreter at that hotel. Life in China was very interesting, but nevertheless I was very anxious to return to my native land. Aboard the “Maru Joujou I met Ruth Kurtz, who had married “The Sweetheart Soap king. During our conversation one day we happened to be speaking of New York when Ruth recalled that John Kusner was coaching “The Columbia University Eleven. His team had won the championship of the Eastern Conference the previous season. Steve Shiglinsky was the captain of the floating palace on which we sailed. The ship was piloted under the direction of Tommy Watson. During a period of one week it rained almost steadily. The most of that week I spent among the books in the ship’s extensive library. Among the collection were several by Ruth Siemon, “The Romance of The Rain Beau, and “When I was Twenty One. We entered the harbor at San Francisco early in November, 1934. A great deal of cheering was going on, as it happened to be the day after the fall elections. Irene Gedeon had been elected governor of California. I went to the hotel Plaza for dinner. W’hile looking over the menu I no- ticed some of the items having the phrase k la Moncol after them. Upon inquiry I found that after Emily had made a thorough study of the Culinary Art, she had been chosen head chef of that California hotel. As I had plenty of time, I purchased a ticket for a tour through a number of the states, eventually reaching Ohio. We first stopped in Reno, Nevada, where I found John Priefer judge in the most frequently sought divorce court in the United States. Strolling through Salt Lake City, I recognized Albert Kunze on top of a soap box expounding in brilliant terms “The Necessity of the Old Fashioned Mormon.” When we reached Arizona a small group of the passengers was anxious to climb a mountain. After securing Bernard Conrad as our guide, we began to climb the Eagle’s Tail mountain. When we had climbed up about two miles we suddenly reached a plain where sheep were grazing. The faithful old shepherd eagerly informed us that the Misses Lightman and Ball manufactured kid gloves there. At Baton Rouge, the capital of Louisiana, we visited Marie England’s select school for daughters of old southern families. Near the central part of Alabama I located John Haefele, the proud possessor of an eight hundred acre cotton plantation. I was eager to visit Chicago, as a World’s Fair was being held there that year. I was not surprised to see that a beautiful oil painting done by David Essi of Cleveland, Ohio, had won first prize. We stopped at Frankfort, Kentucky, just at a time of great excitement concerning a most mysterious murder. Elsie Korvta, the detective employed in the case, had, in attacking her cases, a system somewhat similar to that of Sherlock Holmes. At Buckingham, Virginia, we visited coal mines which were under the supervision of Alfred Vermes and Gerald Waltz. They also were carrying on extensive experiments with coal tar compounds, especially aniline dyes. We visited Princeton University in New Jersey at the height of the football season. There we saw a marvelous football team coached by Llewellyn Harper. Llewellyn informed me that Larry Ulrich, who used to be our football captain at Lincoln, had departed recently for England, where among other noted swimmers, he was to engage in a contest to cross the English Channel. I also heard that William Sorger had become very successful in his photographer’s shop located on the Atlantic City Board-walk. Finally we reached that great metropolis, New York City. Alice Abel had become editor of the New York Tribune. I entered the Wool-worth Building, where I found Paul Dudich rising rapidly in the world. He operated the elevator going up from the first to the forty-fifth floor. As some of our party wished to make some purchases at a French shop, we went to one of Broadway’s most exclusive shops, conducted by Vlasta Krivan. There we found Ruth Abbey in her glory. Ruth, who had inherited quite a fortune, expected to tour through Europe shortly. She was selecting a Parisian wardrobe. Florence Paul and Evelyn were saleswomen at Vlasta’s French shop. Around the corner on the next street we came across Clara Morris’s beauty parlor. I went in to say “Hello” to Clara, but as she was busy, I read a newspaper while waiting. Among the headlines of the paper I read this one, “Charles Kohl, Wall Street Financier, Makes Another Million.” This is what comes to persons who —33— are experienced in managing such superlative organizations as “The Lincoln High Football Team. I shall not attempt to describe the emotions which I experienced on entering Cleveland. I bought a “News and hailed a taxi. Carl Detzel, who, by the way, was the chauffeur, conducted me speedily to the Sovereign Hotel. To my great joy Margaret Bruehler was registered at the same hotel. I wished to visit Margaret, but the maid was astonished because I didn’t know that those were Margaret’s office hours at the Union Trust Company, of which she was president. The “News, called the best paper issued in Cleveland (probably because Bob Patterson was its editor) proved an interesting diversion for a while, but I was anxious to see more of the city. Going down on the elevator I met Ethel Kloz, who roomed directly above me. Ethel supervised an ice cream parlor on Euclid Avenue, where Hoffman’s used to be. As that happened to be Ethel’s day off, she kindly offered to show me about town. Ethel said that Helen Porter was one of Sterling Welch’s most talented decorators. At that time, Helen happened to be busy decorating some offices which were to be opened in the near future by Doctor P. Schultz, “The Painless Dentist. As Ethel wanted to buy a frock, we went into Lindner’s where Louise Ritenour was at the head of the Ladies Apparel Department. She fitted out Ethel very nicely during which she told us that Ethel Paulus had become a telephone operator and Audrey Shepherd had just opened a School of Beauty Culture. Irene Held was teaching kindergarten at Scranton School. We next visited the art museum where a special exhibition of the paintings of the modern artist, Bob Young, was the main attraction. There we met Wilbur Wetzel, who was examining some old volumes which would be of help to him in his work at Western Reserve where he was a professor in ancient history. Wilbur explained that Cora Bratt was Dean of the School for Nurses at Western Reserve. Vernon Essi, the scientist, was instructing in Quantitative Chemistry at Cast College of Western Reserve. That evening we attended “Blossom Time in which Ruth Kanter, the opera star, proved to be a great success. After that we stopped at Irene Miller’s Candy Kitchen. As we left the confectionery shop I felt a detaining hand on my arm. My partner had seen a familiar person carrying a large bundle. It was Joe Walsh bringing home from the printers the first copy of a newly compiled dictionary. Walsh’s Dictionary has proved a boom to the cross-word puzzle enthusiasts. I had heard that Ida Engel played the organ in a certain church. As the next day was Sunday I determined to attend that church. One can well imagine my amazement when I realized that the preacher who looked down from the pulpit was none other than the Reverend Robert Simmons. The Reverend Simmons terminated his sermon with the words, “Let us be grateful, for we have prospered. These words fascinated me and made me think. The Class graduated in 1925 from Lincoln High School was prosperous. Its prosperity cannot be denied, for this document affirms it, but this is only a prophecy, and the prophecy is complete. Now all that I can say is, “Life is before us—let us keep in our hearts our highest aims and so make the class of January ’25 one that will be forever remembered in the annals of Lincoln High. After a decade has past let us truly be able to sav, “WE are grateful, for we have prospered. —BEATRICE CHARVAT. —34— J.KUSHER (RED GRANGE H) HIGK FERE NCZ NO. -- 0 WANTED R.Youhg -2EZ CONFREV'5 RIVAL C.

Then we shall no longer be regarded as persons to be looked up to and admired, but shall start over, so to speak, in the business world, or some of us will seek higher education. Soon we shall leave dear old Lincoln forever, but we shall always remember the associations we have made here. But before we leave, we wish to extend our heartiest thanks to the student body for the support which they have always given so generously. We also desire to thank you, our friends, for your loyalty and encouragement which has made possible this Annual. Perhaps we shall never meet again, but we shall all carry away from Lincoln some of that spirit which shall bind us forever to every other graduate of Lincoln High. Juniors and Seniors. Dear Friends: You are now about to stand in our shoes, and it is up to you to fill them. The burdens which we are about to lay aside will fall upon your broad shoulders; may you sustain them nobly. May you raise your standard higher than we have done. It is you, the upper classmen, who will be chosen as the speakers for rhetoricals, members and officers of clubs and as members of the Log Staff. We offer you encouragement for your future efforts and wish you every possible success. May you enjoy your sojourn as we have done. Remember Lincoln’s motto, “Vincit Qui Se Vincit.” Success to your class! Sincerely, THE SENIORS. —44— Open Letters To Our Friends, the Sophomores. Dear Sophs: As Seniors, we feel that it is our solemn duty to warn you of the dangers lurking in your path. Yes, you are quite important, but don’t forget, that you are not Seniors yet! Still, every thing comes to him who waits, so who knows? We know that you will enjoy “lording it over” the poor, little green “Freshie.” By the way, we wish to congratulate you for the strength which you have exhibited in resisting discouragement and also, for your timely escape from the “Green ranks.” So, dear Sophs, the best of luck to you! Your friends, THE SENIORS. Freshmen To Our Little Friends, the “Flats”: You are last, but not least, for your turn will come soon, as time stands still for no one. You have done well, you have met all of your trials with such brave fortitude that you deserve the highest praise. We have spent four years at Lincoln. We have been discouraged many times, but now that we look back upon the years spent here, we know’ that these years have been worth while. We urge you to complete your four years here and to graduate, as there is nothing which will be of greater value to you, in the business world, than a high school education. Well, c’est fini, best wishes to you. THE SENIORS. Famous Faculty Autographs The Ideal Teacher Hair—Miss Wakeman. Eyes—Miss Reddy. Eyebrows—Miss Cole. Figure—Miss Hoskins. Teeth—Miss Denison.

Probably next year will bring better luck for the Red and White gridders, and we hope that the next squad will “bring home the bacon” in the Senate race for the championship. The fact that a team, whether it be one of football, basketball, baseball, or any other sport, is not a winning team is no indication that that organization has no good players. This February class boasts of having some players who composed the stronger side of the team this year, namely: Johnny Kusner, Larry Ulrich, Paul Schultz, “Les” Roth and Llewellyn Harper. Everyone knows that Johnny was the Lincolnites’ favorite gridder this year; he has “brains and brawn” and he used both when he played football, and, hence, he was one of the greatest assets to the varsity. Johnny served as a sub end on last year's squad. Larry Ulrich played quarter. As captain of the team, Larry must be complimented for procuring such great co-operation among his fellow players and for producing an eleven that, although not a winning aggregation, took its defeats in sportsmanlike fashion, abided with the decision of the officials and was not always prepared to quarrel with the officials. Paul Schultz, our class president, is a good halfback. He is a good all around football player, for he knows how to carry the ball, tackle and interfere efficiently; he led the others in the art of intercepting passes. Llewellyn was a regular on the varsity last year and this year; he played tackle, and a “corker” he is at that position. It is no fun playing tackle; ask Harper how comfortable it feels to have a two hundred and twenty-five pound piece of beef battering him in each scrimmage. “Les” Roth last year broke his collar bone and injured his shoulder and hence he did not play at all that season. However, he came back again this year in fine trim, and has played as sub either in the line or in the backfield. Although “Les” is small, he is a good player and knows that “the bigger they are the harder they fall”; in the Glenville game “Les” caught a punt, and while running back, he was tackled and downed, but for safety’s sake two other big Glenville players piled on “Les” to make sure that he would not get away. Roth generally served as fullback and he equals Larry in running back punts. He is a clever tackier, and because of his slightness and his quickness of sight and thought, he can slip through the opponent’s line as easily as any of the players could. The Lincoln gridders were the first to open the Cleveland football season when they played and defeated West Commerce 12—0 at Brookside Stadium, Friday, Oct. 11. Maibauer scored the first touchdown in the first period when he picked up the ball and raced ten yards for the marker after Kusner had blocked a punt. “Unk” Miller scored the second touchdown when, in the second chapter, he dashed fifteen yards around end and over the goal line. Both tries for point failed. As the Lincolnites did not score again, the contest ended in a 12—0 victory for the Red and White. Lincoln, a week later, gave the big Cleveland Heights eleven a 7—0 thrashing; this defeat of the Heights aggregation was unexpected because the Orange and Black boys averaged ten pounds more to a man and the team was thought to be a much stronger one. —ioa ' I The minute before the end of the West Tech game was the climax of the Presidents’ career, and the instant that the final whistle blew the Lincolnites began descending. South High carried away the honors at Garfield Park in an easy contest with the Scranton Road boys, when the latter did not have enough pep to keep the Southerners from carrying the ball over from the four yard line. The score was 7—0. Glenville also defeated the Red and White gridders 7—0 when a trick play and a twenty-eight yard dash around end brought the only touchdown for the Red and Black. However, Lincoln almost turned the tables against Glenville when four non-consecutive passes netted seventy-six yards. The Lincolnites could have placed themselves in a scoring position if a pass, Miller to Ulrich, had been completed. When East Tech lined up before the Scranton Road boys, the latter knew that a hard fight was at hand and that one swamping was enough; accordingly they buckled down in earnest to play football. Lincoln sprang a surprise on the over-confident Woodworkers, for the Presidents proved a harder team than the Artisans had expected them to be. Lincoln held Tech to a scoreless half, besides tallying once in the second quarter; the final score, 19—6 in favor of Tech, showed a decided improvement on the part of the Red and White. After riding in a bus for ten hours Saturday, Sept. 8, Coach Cochran’s boys donned their uniforms and lined up against the Jeanette (Pa.) eleven. The Jeanetites won out on a 40—0 score, but considering the very unfavorable conditions, the Lincolnites put up a grand fight. Even though they lost the game, they left a good impression upon the minds of the Pennsylvanians, especially the impression that they were game fighters and that they fulfilled their agreement without complaint. The Red and White gridders were cordially welcomed into the town and after the game they were honored with a banquet; nearly the whole town was out to witness the battle. The Presidents next went to Toledo to play the Libbey High aggregation of that city; Libbey emerged victorious from the fray with a 20—0 score, although completely outplayed. The Red and White boys played a noble game and certainly showed the Libbey High gridders that they could play a hard game. Had the boys played all season as they played in Jeanette and Toledo they would have finished the Senate race in a far different place than they did. In the last game of the season West High defeated Lincoln 12—0 and thus deprived the latter of the last hopes of victory. West scored in the second and fourth periods but missed both tries for point. Considering the season as a whole, the Lincoln eleven put up a good even fight all the way through, but the general impression is that if they had fought just a little harder their efforts would have been more fruitful. This season’s record should not be a discouraging one nor should any of the Lincoln fans be ashamed to show that record, for. according to the dope, this season is just paving the way of Experience and Preparation for a more successful and a more invincible football eleven next year. —VERNON ESSI. —107— Alumni Many of Lincoln's Alumni are attending college this year.

We wandered around the halls, gazing at pictures of former graduates and animals in glass cases. We cast admiring and worshipful glances at the high and mighty Seniors and our hearts were greatly moved with pity for the poor Junior Highs, who had not yet reached our glorious state of importance. We got lost fifty times a day. We didn’t know who “Gym” was, and didn’t care to make his acquaintance. We never arrived at our classes on time and our programs were hopelessly muddled. But we went our bewildered ways and in due time got used to things. I think we did well—considering. Then came the time when we were Sophs. To put it aptly but inelegantly, we were the whole show. We were imbued with the idea of our own greatness and importance. We felt that the poor school would go to rack and ruin without us. We knew that without us a dire calamity would befall it. We looked down upon the “poor green Freshies” and hazed them every chance we got. We became candidates for the various clubs. We made friends with the upper classmen. We were very, very important! Then we became Juniors! By that time we had got over thinking we were so important, we knew we were! We looked down on the “Sophs” and envied the Seniors. We spoke of “our teams” and how good they were. We called the Seniors by their first names and spoke of them singly and collectively as our bosom friends. We went to the informals and enjoyed them immensely, too. We were invited to all the “doings,” we became officers of the Clubs; had our pictures taken for the Annual, and did lots of other things. We began to have some serious thoughts, too. We had to decide what our careers were to be and felt a bit “puffed up,” to say the least, to be able to say, “I’m going to be a doctor!” Finally we reached the Mecca of our dreams, for we were Seniors! As members of that august body, we trod our different ways with becoming dignity. By this time our importance was an established fact. We enjoyed the reverent awe of the Freshmen and the envious glances of the “Sophs” and Juniors. Our opinions were asked in regard to important matters. We gave the dances and the Juniors were our guests. We displayed our rings and enjoyed talking about class meetings before lower classmen. Soon another class will take our place. We hope that this class will enjoy its sojourn as Seniors as we have done, and that’s that! —Audrey Shepherd. no— —Ill— A Christmas Story 3N the sixth Decade of the eighteenth century the motherless Winthrop family dwelt in a colony in New England. They had braved the hardships of the new land and were now happily established as members of the colony. The father was a venerable gentleman whose opinions were received with great respect by his neighbors. He was a severe man with strict re-ligous opinions. He was very fond of his children and expected perfect behavior of them. Prudence, the eldest, and only daughter, was a beautiful blue eyed maid. She had an abundance of black hair neatly coiled at the nape of the neck. Her simple grey gown was set off by a white neckerchief. It was her duty to attend to all the household affairs and teach and advise her young brothers. Not far from the Winthrop’s lived Will Adams, an excellent young man who had earned the approval of his fellowmen by his good nature and ability to do all things well. He admired Prudence and was very friendly with the other members of the family. Early Christmas eve Prue set out to visit Grandmother Johnson, a poor old lady who lived alone in a distant cabin on the outskirts of the forest. She arrived there without mishap and was heartily welcomed by her aged friend. Will had accepted the duty of hewing down a Christmas tree which was to be placed in the meeting house for the benefit of the children. It was the custom to deck the tree with strings of cranberries and to place candles in the windows of the meeting house and homes to cheer the wanderers on their way. An Indian lurked in the forest awaiting the return of a beautiful white maiden whom he wished to take to his tribe as his squaw. Having bidden her friend goodbye Prue began her walk toward home. As she was passing through the forest the whistling wind slightly alarmed her and turning she saw the Indian following. She ran swiftly in great fright, pursued by the savage. Suddenly she heard the sound as of one chopping at a tree. As she paused to learn the source of the sound the angry Indian overtook her and was about to use his tomahawk when the woodman, neighbor Will, suddenly appeared. He had been surprised by Prue’s cry of alarm. A shot rang out through the forest and the hatchet fell from the Indian’s hand. He fled through the forest. After the tree for which Will had come had been placed on a rude cart the twTo started for home. As they neared their destination the darkness had fallen and the welcoming Christmas candles were seen from the cabins. When the story of her narrow escape had been told the family rejoiced that their beloved Prudence was spared to them. This was the happiest Christmas of all. —BESSIE ZERBY —112— Richard’s Christinas OREA came running and skipping along through the forest. Truly, iLl s e was a rave little lass. It was the first time in her young life she had dared venture within the pine woods. But then why should she be afraid when she had her faithful Shep along? Lorea stopped short. She had come to a clearing and there was a little cabin nestling among the tall pines. This cabin was the object of the village’s angry discussions which her little ear’s had not entirely missed. A gay, young man, his delicate wife and child had come there some five years before when Lorea was too young to remember. It was during the period when the New England villages were very hostile to strangers. Although friendly and kind to their neighbors the Puritans, due to difficulties of communication with other communities would tolerate none other than those persons whose character and past history were as an open book to them. Lo, when the young couple appeared, there was no kindliness shown them, no helping hand was extended to build them a home in the wilderness. The young man, Roger Livingstone by name, had cleared away a few trees in the forest and built a rude cabin of one room. Overhead could be seen a tiny patch of sky and scant sunlight but all around was the thick pine woods. With hard labor Roger Livingstone had managed to exist by-cultivating a few acres. After four years of lonely existence in the forest, his wife died, leaving the little boy now six years of age to his father’s care. Father and son had lived together one year and now Roger Livingstone was leaving his little boy alone. His past which had hitherto been a mystery was unfolded to his seven year old son. Roger Livingstone had been born in the south on a great plantation and when a young man. had fallen in love with the daughter of his father’s greatest enemy. Accustomed to the great hospitality of the south they had run away, married and came north, sure of help from the northerners. After this tale was told, Roger Livingstone died, not knowing what was to become of his child. Lorea stole cautiously up to the cabin door which was partly open. From within a gentle and low sobbing was heard. She peeped through the crack and saw a young form crouched low beside a rude cot on which a still form was resting. She stepped into the cabin and attracted little Richard’s attention. He lifted a tear-stained face to her and on it was such a woe-begone expression, that Lorea’s sympathy was immediately aroused. After comforting the lad as best she could, Lorea finally convinced him of her friendliness and persuaded him to come to the village and her home. Her mother, Mrs. Tomlinson was Lorea’s only living parent and was a very kind and gentle woman. She was finally won over by her daughter’s pleadings for friendliness to the little chap, and secured the place of cowherd for him. Richard was strong and sturdy so he continued to live in his father’s cabin helped much by Mrs. Tomlinson. But winter was drawing near and the sheep could no more pasture. Richard was helping a farmer harvest and lived temporarily with him but —113— after Christmas he could be there no more. What was the boy to do? Many were the debates, if one could so call them from a child as young as Lorea, held between mother and daughter. But finally all was agreed. Lorea had, with her own chubby fingers, labored night after night over something made of wool, her mother, opposite creating articles of the same material. As Christmas drew nearer Lorea’s young nostrils were assailed daily with delightful odors. Although many delicacies were not obtainable in those days of hardship, the few, rare eatables prepared on holidays, were greatly appreciated. On Christmas Eve the candles burned steadily on in the Tomlinson house. Lorea, however, was warm in her snug little coat. Richard had been asked to spend the night at this little home by Lorea’s mother. He had succeeded in chopping down a small pine tree and bringing it in. This was Richard's and Mrs. Tomlinson's surprise for Lorea. Apples, other available fruit and many nuts were hung on the tree and Mrs. Tomlinson tied several small packages on the fragrant branches. Early in the morning Lorea was awakened and happy was her little heart when she saw the beautiful Christmas tree. Still happier was Richard at the small gifts of mittens and stockings so painstakingly made, but his heart was filled to bursting when beloved Mrs. Tomlinson and Lorea formally took him in their little home. He now had a sister and a mother’s love which he had sorely missed. The three made a merry little family, laughing and joking over the Christmas feast. Mrs. Tomlinson was probably the happiest of all for she rejoiced in the year’s good luck and her ability to overcome the current prejudice and do a kindness to one more unfortunate than herself. UPPOSE teachers didn’t give homework? At first thought you will say, “That would be fine,’’ but, on closer investigation would it? If we did no homework and had a definite amount of work to cover each semester, it would mean, longer, much longer periods, a longer school day, and a longer school year. Which do you want? I leave the choice with you. Suppose we all did our homework, and handed it in on time? We would have much more pleasant teachers, easier and better class recitations, and a better spirit would exist in the school, a spirit of cooperation between teacher and pupil. This is too good to be true, however, I know so do you. How? Why, because we are both guilty of neglecting our tasks. Suppose we had no street cars, trains, telegraphs, telephones, or none of the present day means of communication and transportation. Where would we be? There would be none of our present day civilization, or progress. “Half of the world would not know how the other half lived.’’ We, instead of being a nation, would be like the Indians, living in small groups, ignorant and independent of each other. Suppose we had none of the present day improvements. Where would we be? Do we owe a great deal to inventors and far-sighted men? I think so. Think it over. —MARIE ENGLAND 12A —LLEWELLYN HARPER. —114— f j K. C. N. S.” The country villa of Mr. George R. De Olloqui, Esq., was by all means the most attractive of any thereabouts. It was situated about ten miles from the village of Croydon, on a hill which commanded the view for miles about. There was a week-end party at the villa and the guests were rather unusual. The host was a man of very attractive appearance, in fact, he was really handsome. He was tall, well built and most athletic. On Friday evening the master of the house was sitting on the veranda enjoying the breezes of early September. Across from him sat his fiancee, Miss Inez Southerland. She was a most beautiful creature. The word, beautiful had been used more than once in describing her. Near the charming lady sat the friend of the host Mr. John Reitz. Then there was Mr. Fred Carlis and his devoted wife. A most charming couple to have at a party. Out on the lawn were Mrs. Alice Brown and her well meaning husband. They were the kind of people whom others are not eager to invite, but. they just had to be invited because of their position in Croydon. The visitor of greatest importance had not as yet arrived. The conversation on the veranda centered about the famous author, and expected visitor, Mr. Frederick F. Fitzgerald, whose works had only recently come before the eyes of the reading public. The clock was nearing eight when a large automobile drove up to the veranda, the chauffeur alighted, opened the door, and forth stepped Mr. Frederick F. Fitzgerald, author and bibliophile. To those present the newcomer was an object of great curiosity for he had not been seen before by any of them save the host. After the formal introductions the party withdrew to the dining-room. Mr. Fitzgerald was an excellent conversationalist, and it did not take the party long to become engrossed in discussion with him. The talk was on various subjects, books for the most part, all kinds, old and new, classical and modern, good and bad. Since the visitor was the author of several detective stories the discussion in due time bent that way; from there to murders, their motives, how committed, and methods involved. Some one then told how he would perform the act if he were to find it necessary to commit a murder. “If I were to commit a murder I would shoot,” stated Mr. Reitz. “That would not go,” said Mr. Carlis. “I would strangle my victim,” this probably because of his physical ability. This kind of discussion naturally led others on, quite to the disgust of the Browns. “I don’t think any of you have the right idea for going about it. For my part I would think that poison would be the only method one would hope to escape suspicion,” said our charming Miss Southerland. Soon after the conversation was turned into other more pleasing channels. After the dinner was finished all went to the living-room for an hour or two before retiring. Mr. Fitzgerald possessed some hypnotic powers as well as the ability of recalling the past to the people. This he proceeded to do. “You, Mr. Reitz, are thinking of needles,” said the operator. —115— At this statement Mr. Reitz clasped the arms of his chair and held tight for fear that he would be noticed. “And you, Mr. Carlis, are thinking of a business deal you pushed through last week and wondering how it is going to turn out, am I not correct?” said the author. “You are most correct,” responded Mr. Carlis. By this time Mr. Fitzgerald had the attention of the whole group, and, everyone was watching him with all earnestness. “My dear Miss Southerland over there is thinking of an untidy bureau drawer . Are you not?” inquired the author. Again another of Fitzgerald’s subjects had felt the greatness of his power. At this utterance Inez turned slightly red, and to avoid the gaze of the others she quietly left the room. It was now near mid-night, so all made off for bed. On the way to the staircase Mr. Fitzgerald asked for a few nuts which lay on the table and having taken a goodly supply he set off for his room. At seven the next morning the master arose, as was his daily custom, and went out for his morning walk. On returning, he went to his library where he had arranged to meet the author and discuss some old books in which both were interested. Ten thirty came, ten forty-five arrived, and still the visitor did not come, finally eleven o’clock and the visitor did not appear. At length the host grew uneasy. He then called a few of his friends and they went to the writer’s chamber which was locked. To their repeated knocking there was no response. Finally getting a ladder they climbed to the upper floor where they found the windows securely fastened. Breaking through to their amazement there they found the dead body of Mr. Frederick F. Fitzgerald. He was still dressed and a book lay in his lap. A doctor was immediately summoned, and the authorities called to the scene. The body was then, on the arrival of the police, ordered to the morgue where an inquest was held. The death was said to have been caused by poison, and on more minute examination potassium cyanide was named as the poison. At whose hand had Fitzgerald met his death? That was the question Mr. John Scott had to answer for the chief prosecutor. He ordered that no one leave the house except at his permission. He then set about to pick up any clue that he might find. A thorough inspection of the death room was evidently the first thing he did. There were a few papers about the room. Then there was the toothpick which lay on the right side of the chair, in which Mr. Fitzgerald was found. That was all. No clue in sight. How did the murderer do the trick? Mr. Scott then called all the parties in the house and questioned them individually. First he called Mr. De Olloqui. “Well, Mr. De Olloqui, who do you think pulled this job?” asked the detective. “I don’t know,” replied the squire. “I want you to tell me the whole story from beginning to end,” said the seeker of villians. “To tell you the truth I do not know any more than you do, Mr. Scott. I will, however, tell all that happened here the evening before. You know as well as I do that I want to get this thing settled up. Mr. Fitzgerald arrived at eight P. M. Friday evening, we had dinner, sat in the living room for several hours, then we all retired. The next morning we found him dead. That is all I know and I hope you believe me.

If there is anything that I can do toward helping you I will do so,” stated Mr. De Olloqui. “Thank you, will you now call Mr. Reitz for me?” said the detective. “What do you know of this affair?” asked the detective of Mr. Reitz. “Nothing what-so-ever,” responded Mr. Reitz. “I don’t believe you do,” said Mr. Scott and he excused Mr. Reitz. The detective called in the other folks and the interviews were all of the same nature. The detective was not able to get anything out of anyone. He knew of a tooth pick, walnuts that other folks had eaten, of an interview between Fitzgerald and Reitz the night before the murder, he knew of the conversations held at dinner and in the living room, he knew that Fitzgerald was a divorced man, and that his wife was somewhere in retirement; he knew that he was a book collector and that he would do most anything to get what he wanted; he knew that Fitzgerald was acquainted with Reitz, and many other things, but still he wa sat a loss as to who the murderer might be. At the end of three weeks the mystery was no nearer solution. Mr. De Olloqui straight forth went to London to secure the services of Mr. Irwin W. Sherwood, who had in the past few years removed the clouds of doubt from some forty murders. Mr. Irwin W. Sherwood was in his office when Mr. De Olloqui arrived. Immediately on his arrival he set to work explaining the situation that had been troubling him for the last few weeks. He told him of the toothpick, of the conversations, of the Reitz interview, of Fitzgerald’s craze for old books, and of the many other things that would be considered in this kind of interview. Mr. Sherwood then promised that he would be out in the morning to look the grounds over and to interview the company. After Mr. De Olloqui had left the detective set to work on the crime. He wired for all the information he could get concerning Mr. Fitzgerald. Before he saw any of the group of individuals involved he knew their whole history. First thing the next morning Mr. Sherwood set out for the villa of Mr. De Olloqui. He arrived at ten o’clock. He then looked over the room and then the whole house. After having made a map of the lay of the rooms, he then set about interviewing the folks. In an hour he was ready to leave so he told the master that he would be back in a week and report progress. The week that followed was a busy one for Mr. Sherwood, and a very tense one for Mr. De Olloqui. During the week Mr. Sherwood made an examination of the body of Mr. Fitzgerald, where he found only one means of administrating potassium cyanide. He found in the lower jaw a small hole which seemed to have been somewhat swollen. He then investigated the nature of death as a result of administered potassium cyanide, which was identical to the apparent death of Fitzgerald. He also found that Mr. Reitz was a book collector of considerable note and that he was to a certain extent most unscrupulus in his dealings. He found that Reitz had sold several books in the last week for a fine price at Rockwell’s Auction Shop. That Reitz was a chemist of no mean repute. He learned that Miss Inez Southerland had been the wife of Mr. Fitzgerald, and he deducted that that was the reason of Miss Southerland’s turning away when Fitzgerald mentioned “untidy bureau drawers”. At any rate he felt that he had the mystery solved so 11 — WHEN the final call comes to a member of the family, it is natural to desire a memorial service in which fitting honor shall be paid and faith in the larger future shall be expressed. At such a time, those who are suffering the strain of parting must be relieved of the details of arrangement. Furthermore, if the arrangements are to be perfect, they must be placed in highly trained and experienced hands. There is a funeral director in your community who, possessing this skill, also understands that he is called upion for something more than professional service—that the essence of his responsibility is to carry out each detail in the spirit of a labor of love. Funeral Director—Sanitarian Invalid Car Service 3248 Scranton Road —119— he phoned Mr. De Olloqui and asked him to have the whole party there when he gave his report, and Mr. Scott as well. On Tuesday of the following week Irwin W. Sherwood arrived at the country home of Mr. George R. De Olloqui. He was ushered quietly into the library where the individuals, who had been in the house on the night of the murder, were gathered. Plunging into the whole matter without ceremony he said, “I have come to make my report on this matter. Will Mr. Reitz tell the party why he flinched when Mr. Fitzgerald mentioned needles? I will tell them for you. It was because of this. Mr. Reitz borrowed a book called “Needles” from Mr. Fitzgerald. The book was written by a certain Richard Cholula, a Spaniard, in 1563. “It was a very valuable book and there are only a few copies in existence, therefore a copy would be much prized. Mr. Reitz after borrowing the book set to work about getting a copy of the title page of this first edition. This is easily done by photographing it, which thing Mr. Reitz proceeded to do. Mr. Reitz then returned the book with the photographed title page instead of the original. This fact was soon found out by Mr. Fitzgerald, who then wrote to Mr. Reitz. “When Mr. Fitzgerald came to this house party he was said not to have known anyone save the master, but he really knew several persons here. He had known Miss Southerland some ten years back. She had been his wife, they were divorced about eight years ago. Mr. Fitzgerald’s name was then Mr. George J. Ferris. This thing Miss Southerland did not know. Mr. Fitzgerald had changed it on all his books and he, in time, began to be known as Fitzgerald. Mr. Reitz knew that the Fitzgerald would in due time cause him trouble. He, Mr. Reitz, then found means to cover his theft. You will also recall the conversation between the author and Mr. Reitz. You are a chemist, are you not, Mr. Reitz? “The other day I visited the morgue and there I examined the body of the victim. I found that there was a slight swelling in the gum and that it had been caused by the prick of a tooth-pick which was covered with potassium cyanide. You will recall that Mr. Fitzgerald ate walnuts on that evening it would be a natural occurrence for him to use a tooth-pick. When I examined the room I found a tooth-pick but that one was free from any such chemical. “Then I went over the whole house and I found in the room, in which Mr. Reitz slept a tooth-pick which was covered with the chemical, which caused the death of the author. There is but one person in this room charged with the murder, and that is you, Mr. John Reitz. “I have made my report, Mr. De Olloqui, I thank you for the assistance that you have given me.” Mr. Reitz was then placed in the hands of Mr. Scott, who thanked the famed detective for his assistance in finding the criminal. Thus, through the skill and shrewdness of Mr. Sherwood was solved another great mystery. —JOSEPH SMYTHE WALSH. —120— HIGH GRADE INTERIOR FINISHING LOHMAN BROTHERS Painting Contractors 2616 DELMAR AVENUE HARVARD 483, CLEVELAND, OHIO —121— Geo.

'25 English Club '25 Hi Press Club ’24, '25 Home Room Club ’24 In Memoriain We may find it difficult to understand why Julius should have been deprived of the one thing that would have crowned with success his efforts and the ambitions which he cherished here at Lincoln—Commencement. Yet, unconsciously, perhaps, he achieved a greater thing, for the fine example of perseverance and optimism which he set for us will live forever in the hearts of all who have known him. If Julius accomplished so much, handicapped as he was, should we not be the more anxious to make the most of our better advantages? THE LINCOLN I.A no Class Flower, Motto and Colors AS symbolic of our character, we, the June Class of 1925, have chosen the American Beauty as our class flower. Deep in meaning, the American Beauty represents the fiery side of our lives, the active moments of our careers. It combines its serene demeanor with its richness of spirit. We too hope to fulfill our destiny as “finimus coepere.” We have but passed through the prologue of life and are now standing at the brink of our divergent paths. “We finish to begin”—may that sentiment calm our eager spirits and guide us to future accomplishments. Our life-battles will be fought with severity and courage, motivated by our unfailing love for righteousness. Though we strugggle earnestly, peacefulness of mind and body will prevail, and in the end our goal will be reached. Fortunate is he who combines in the proper proportion the enduring qualities of our class flower, the American Beauty, the sterling sentiments of our class colors,old rose and silver, and blend these with the nobleness of our class motto, “finimus coepere.” Class Poem “We finish to begin” To greater deeds aspire, Success we aim to win And education higher. Our teachers have been kind, And have been friends indeed; They’ve helped improve each mind, Supplied each mental need. Ideals taught us here Have always been most high; To them we shall adhere, Nor aught that’s great decry. Our journey o’er life’s way, Led by the beacon light Of knowledge gained each day, Should keep our steps aright. That light which is our guide Will ever lead us on To open vistas wide For us to gaze upon. We go on various ways, This class of twenty-five, To brighten others’ days And serve the world we’ll strive. BESSIE ZERBY THE LINCOLN!A 51 Class Will WE, THE June Class of 1925, being of unimpaired mind, accurate memory and excellent understanding (violently denied by Faculty) do hereby make and publish this last Will and Testament, thereby revoking and rendering null and void any former wills heretofore published. Section I To Miss Pilcher, Miss Cowing, Miss Hassler and Mr. Dunham, our home room teachers, we bequeath: Our sincere gratitude and a friendship as firm as Gibraltar. Best wishes for success and happines in all future undertakings which they may enter upon. Section II To the entire factulty, who have been so courageous and devoted as to remain with us during our four years’ sojourn we bequeath: All our report cards (with averages above 95) that they may be exhibited to future scholars as examples of our genius. Section III We will to the January Class of 1926, all our prerogatives; namely, to be tardy, rip Music, occupy the best seats during Rhetoricals, start outlandish styles, step on freshmen, bluff the teacher, pass sarcastic remarks to the guards and run the school our way. Section IV To the juniors we bequeath our aristocratic manners, supercilious airs and superior knowledge. Section V We bequeath to the Sophomores the new book, “Growing Out of Childhood.” Section VI We request the green, lowly things called “flats” to treat “kindly” the bashful, innocent infants coming from the grades. Section VII We desire that a fund be created from our almost empty treasury for the humanitarian purpose of supplying milk to such under-nourished students as Fernau Bader, Ellison Ettinger, etc. Section VIII We leave the custodian all test papers, notebooks and all unnecessary rubbish (including Lloyd Lustig), to decorate his office with, so that he will always think of us with benevolence in his heart. Section IX To the flappers in general we bequeath and recommend “Teddy” Buczynski as an ornamental mascot. Section X We leave all stray dogs that may enter the building to the “hot dog” emporium across the street. 52 THE LINCOLN!A Section XI It is our desire that the following personal bequests be added: 1. “Teddy” Kubit’s devotion to Elverna Hoffman as an example to faithless beaux. 2.

Smiley, sole executor of this our last Will and Testament. In witness whereunto, we have hereunto subscribed our name this 25th day of April, in the year of our Graduation. (Signed) June Class of 1925. (Seal) Per Julius Huszovszky. Drawn and sworn before us, we certify that on the 25th day of April, 1925, the June Class of 1925, the testator, subscribed their name to this instrument in our presence and in testimony whereof we set our hands as Witnesses. T II K L INCOLNIA 53 Class Song 1. Now comes the time we must depart Our life begins anew, In fresh fields soon we make our start, For high school days are through. As we recall our four short years The joys that we can see! We turn aside with grief and tears, That life can ne’er more be! 2. Oh, Alma Mater, ever dear! We honor and love thy name! In coming years we’ll ever strive To magnify thy fame. And true to thy colors we shall be The crimson and the white! They are symbols of courage and purity, May they guide our steps aright! Chorus Oh, Lincoln High, ’tis now goodbye As our pathways drift apart. We bid farewell, a sad farewell, With devotion swells each heart. Faithful to thee ever we’ll be, Loyal and true all our lives through, Be thou our light, guide us to right, Farewell, dear Lincoln, farewell! WILLIAM WATSON .’� 4 T If K I. I N C O L N I A Class Prophecy NE May morning in 1950 I was delighted to find in my mail an invi tation to tune in on the golden anniversary of Lincoln High School. This notice awakened old memories of the spring twenty-five years ago when the June class of ’25 confidently set forth assured that they had finished but to begin. Great changes have taken place at Lincoln during the intervening years. The rambling yellow-brick structure has been replaced by a factory where flivvers of the air are manufactured in enormous quantities. Harold Hundt, the owner, declares that much of the success of this enterprise is due to the assistance of Ted Nowakowski and Oldrick Tichy, who daily risk their lives in testing planes. The school now occupies but one room though it graduates thousands of students yearly. The explanation of this paradox is, of course, radio or rather radiograph an invention of Joe Klamet’s which makes it possible to see as well as hear what is happening in all parts of the world. Radio has indeed brought fame and fortune to a number of our class-mates; there is Elmer Heiser who has banished static from the air; Earl Stary who delights us every evening by reciting in dulcet tones his original bed-time stories; Dorothy Tabbert, known the world over for her monologues; Evelyn DeWitt, who has broadcasted an entire book on political science and William Bowalak, the announcer, who kept the whole country laughing during the last Democratic convention at which Thomas Clutterbuck was nominated in a stirring speach by our promising orator, William Bailer, to run for president against William Neuenfeldt. Anxious to know how the rest of the class of ’25 are progressing, I determined to tune in and see for myself. Of course the careers of many are familiar to all the world. Everyone has read of the doings of Edward Speter, political boss of New York, who is aided and abetted in his work by Malcolm Brooker and Albert Wallace. Just the day before I received tickets from the Metropolitan Opera Company to hear Tessie Lioce in the title role of William Watson’s latest opera “Be Yourself”. A number of other Lincolnites who showed much musical promise in their school days have risen to fame. There is Judith Sunkle whose playing has brought the wealth of the land to her feet and who is now planning a trip to Mars in search of new worlds to conquer. Paul Whiteman, king of jazz, has been forced to hand over his crown to Leslie Schorn whose famous orchestra includes Mike Ciganko, Clyde Miller, and Alvin Ballash while Johnny Howell, having the required heavy mane of hair, has usurped Sousa’s place as leading band master of the world. William Senyak has more than lived up to expectations, his fame as a violinist has spread to the farthermost corners of the earth. That reminds me of a recent rumor I heard regarding our presiident, Theofile Kubit. It seems that he was touring the South Sea islands with Calvin Kielsemier, the oil magnet, and Paul Grunick, the discoverer of a substitute for chewing gum, when a number of savages became intrigued with his blond beauty and made him lord of all he surveyed. I always knew Theofile would become a great ruler some day. What a wonderful plot this would be for Ruth Walker, our famed novelist. It would be quite perfect if only Verne were there to help him but she has about all she can do as “Ma” Gottdiner, governor of Ohio. Ruth Hiltbrandt has also attained political recognition having risen to the enviable position of secretary of state through her great tact and diplomacy. THE UXCO L X I A I frequently run into (or am run into) by George Adams whose penchant for playing chauffeur to pretty ladies has led him to become a taxi driver for the taxi trust owned by Benditz and Bugala. Their slogan is “May the best man survive.” Last evening I went to see Jeanette Balder dance. It is said that Pavlowa made her last farewell tour of the world after watching Jeanette. The gorgeous costumes and settings which featured her acts were specially designed by Elverna Hoffman, Margaret Sheperd and Lucille Goldenbogen. I noticed that there is quite a writeup in the morning paper about our golden anniversary, by the way. This paper is one of the leading publications in the country, possibly because its editorials are written by Emil Alverman or because Grace Edelman, the present-day Stephen Leacock, allows it to reprint her articles (at a dollar a word) . This writeup is illustrated by a picture of Irene Goodland, ’25, together with her daughter, a graduate of '50. Isn’t that a remarkable coincidence? Another feature of interest is the notice that Evelyn Claus, president of Columbia University, will speak at the reunion, over the radio, of course. I really must stop the reminiscences and tune in with the rest. We are greeted by the jovial voice of Carl Schuette, a general in the United States army who has distinguished himself in a recent war with some obstreperous Esquimaux. “First,” announces Carl, “let us all get Hollywood and see what our classmates are doing there. When we finally get the proper wave length, we are delighted to behold (yes we are using Klamet’s radiograph) Mary Beles, the sweetheart of America, taking part in a revival of “Little Lord Fauntleroy.” Doloris Wagner’s dark beauty serves as an admirable foil for our Mary, while Walter Gerlack, the patrician grandparent, paces about the lot waiting for his cue. We notice a huge megaphone labeled, “Sophia Demko, director,” but cannot locate her until at last she is discovered having a private reunion in the Hollywood beauty shoppe run by Louise Salzer and Esther Abrahamson. Nearby is a sanitarium conducted by Evelyn Rosenburg, well known dietician. A sign announces that she guarantees diets which will make one fat, lean or medium according to specifications. Ruth Martin, Mable Behlke, and Ruth Doerschuk are kept busy early and late altering gowns to fit the rapidly changing figures of the patients. Lydia Duwe, the confidential secretary, keeps the records well out of sight or we might come upon some names of other classmates. Ernest Brzozowski is hard at work in his aeroplane repair shop where all the famous actors have their machines overhauled. He announces that just the day before he went over Harvey Powell’s plane in preparation for a week-end hunting trip which he was making to the South Pole accompanied by Roderick MacKenzie and Edward Lancer. William Moody, the local undertaker has a standing contract covering all possible deaths which may occur on such trips. A very profitable business this! Ernest also describes the way Pikes Peak has been transformed into a traffic signal tower and advises us to tune in there since Vernon Shepherd and Donald MacLeod are employed there as traffic cops. We cannot help remarking how amazingly courteous and well bred all the actors appear. A little later we learn that one of the requirements of the profession is that they know, backwards and forwards, Alice Erwin’s book on entiquette which was rivaled in popularity only by that psychological volume of Dorothy Watson’s, “What he said to me, or advice to the love lorn.” Dorothy has glorified the foot-steps of her predecessors, Martha Lee. 5« THE LINCOLN!A We next connect with the establishment of Madame Horsch, modiste, who has made a fortune by designing gowns for actresses. To our surprise we discover our old classmates Natalie Kmiec, Blanche Netopil, Mae Verba, Helen Hemmeter and Elva Lehman all strolling about in gorgeous creations before the envious gaze of prospective buyers. Russia, where we are fortunate enough to get in on the climax of Morris Time is passing rapidly, so Carl advises us to tune in on Petrograd, Rusoff’s speech urging the poor, down-trodden socialists to assert themselves. Lloyd Lustig, the faithful, stands nearby ready to continue when Morris becomes exhausted. In the interim he explains that Catherine Udics has realized her ambition to return to Russia and is now engaged in teaching the citizens how to speak their native language. After several hours we are forced to go on without waiting to hear what Lloyd might ave to add to Morris’ speech. Leaving Russia to the socialists, we tune in on Poland and enjoy a short reunion with Earl Kossuth who has given up a brilliant future as stump orator in America so that he might return to the land of his famed forefathers, where he is known as the George Washington of Poland. After some difficulty we manage to find the correct wave length for Paris. Here we are greeted by a number of our old friends. Imagine our delight at seeing Katherine Whilifer and Ruth Kitsteiner, those famous artist whose studio is regarded as a shrine by all lovers of beauty. Russel Kellum, costume designer, has also taken up his abode in Paris as the most favorable field in which to introduce his new fashions. Women the world over are waiting for him to determine the still vital question of whether skirts will be long or short the following week. His huge establishment is run smoothly and efficiently under the able supervision of his private secretary, Anne Helkin. The Olympic games are being held in Paris, so we determine to tune in. There, much to our surprise, we see Lawrence Vernier dashing wildly about and are informed that he is warming up for the cross-country race. We continue to marvel at the unusual sight of Lawrence in a hurry until our attention is attracted by Genevieve Davis, lima Nieme and Velma Quist, who are surrounded by a crowd of admirers congratulating them on having carried off all the swimming honors. Another big sensation of the day is the basketball team composed of Viola Venus, Helen Allison, Mary Piatek, Grace Kicbusch, Josephine MacDowell and Martha Hanulya. Perhaps the success of this organization is due to the fact that it is coached by Louis Somers. The programs announce that the affair is under the supervision of Elsie Stringer and Emily Webster who are flying madly about in Elsie’s Ford coupe. Apparently she has not yet recovered from her weakness for this means of transportation. The girls pause long enough to report that Alice Nelson is in Paris getting material for her book “Things Every Bridegroom Should Know.” This volume is to contain suggestions on opening cans, feeding gold fish, washing dishes and other helpful household hints. They also say that Audrey Lewelyn and Hazel Smit are conducting a school of elocution which is patronized by children of the very best families. It is recommended by Arline Peschke, the famous orator whose speech on “Men’s Place Is in the Home” has taken the country by storm. Carl’s voice interrupts to announce that we are all to tune in on St. Moritz. This we accomplish with little difficulty. The place is overflowing with people who have come to see Angela Stepanek and Emma Auwerter, the world renowned skating stars but there are ample accommodations for everyone in Henry Mintmeir’s enormous hotel where Ber- T H E L INTO I. N I A 57 nice Wolff reigns supreme as entertainer and social director. Although Bernice is responsible for much of the popularity of this establishment some of it is due to the clever advertising campaign waged by Robert Gebhardt and to the cheery, homelike atmosphere which Elsie Sovish. manager, has achieved. There has been some fear that an unexpected thaw might spoil the ice but Albert Young, noted satirist, is on hand ready to freeze the entire surrounding territory with his biting irony. The master of ceremonies is Helen Burgess, United States Ambassador to Switzerland. She is assisted by Elmer Klefman who is a member of that country’s famous coast guard. We discover several other Lincoln graduates in the audience. There is Bennie Kurzcek, the illustrator, who is noted for his work in Dorothy Homer’s widely read book of fairy tales and otherwise; Mammie Pecenka an eminent naturalist, in search of an elusive specimen of whatd’yacallit; John Durica, who is recovering from a strenuous season as matinee idol: Mary Meyer, who is taking a short vacation, having left her physical culture school under the capable management of Mary Tomko; and Mary Anthony, the spiritualist, whose accomplishments have amazed the departed spirit of Sir Oliver Lodge. She is accompanied by Margaret Morgan, the medium, with whose aid many of her miracles are accomplished. Lloyd Apell, the world’s water tennis champ, is also among those present Although we are delighted to see so many of our old friends we are forced to hurry on to the next station which chances to be London. Here the first thing to meet our gaze is a sign reading “Frank Brown, photographer de lux of infants, William Neu, assistant, Marion Williams, lady attendant.” Apparently Frank’s early training as photographer on the Log staff has stood him in good stead. As he has no radio we fail to get connected with him but fare better in Piccadilly Circus with only remaining horse in captivity. Mikx? is very enthusiastic about the reunion. He informs us that the imposing building nearby is an exclusive finishing school run by Altha Arnhold and Louise Kurggel. Mildred Fretz, he says, is causing London to sit up and take notice by her critical reviews on anything and everything, while Virginia Tiebout is making the city gasp by her poems in free verse (or worse). It takes Lincolnites to give staid London a jolt. He continues to say that it is no longer a city of crime since Edith Jones, chief of police, and Mary Laurencik, judge, have come into office. The Tower of London has been replaced by a modern prison designed and executed by Frank Heinz, architect. It is already famous for its rogues’ gallery painted by Alfred Olsin. Perhaps we might see some familiar faces if we should visit this gallery, who knows? Many other reforms have been accomplished by the social welfare organization of which Grace Sackett, Edna Worthington and Florence Niericker are active members. Jeanette Godziontkowska is devoting her time to amusing London theater goers. ’Tis said that her lines are so witty that they penetrate the densest London fog and brain. Helen Garvey, Ernest Remesch, Marie Ustach and Violet Niskey invariably appear in her plays and no doubt have much to do with their success. Ruth Pridbe has broken many a feminine heart by marrying the Prince of Wales, who is keeping up his reputation as best dressed man by allowing Arthur Nitschke to select his haberdashery. In parting, Mike advises us to tune in on the Zerby Hospital, the finest in the city. We do so and are amazed to see what a number of Bessie’s classmates have followed her across the sea to assist with the good work. THE UN C 0 L NI A r.s Helen Heiser, Harriet Fortner, Caroline Hemmeter, Adele Zeben and Louise Reimer are all serving as nurses. Our old friend, Edward Schultz, is stalking about robed in white. Evidently he is head surgeon. Ethel Maurer is at the present moment an inmate of the hospital having met with an accident while making a tour around the world in her Page. Leaving Ethel in capable and friendly hands we jump across the Atlantic to our own New York City which is agog over the most recent marriage of Marie Earl, the modern version of Peggy Joyce. The excitement over Marie’s escapade is equaled only by the interest in a hunting trip which Mary Mraz and Jessie Taylor are planning to make into the wilds of Jersey. Before setting out on this dangerous expedition they are to have their minds examined by Geraldine Bailey, alienist, and their teeth inspected by Victoria Rice, dentist, who assisted by Julia Boryk, has built up a large practice. The girls are staging a farewell party at a Greenwich Village tea room owned and operated by Hilda Bonacker and Louise Meder. This tea room, known as “The Mare’s Nest”, is famed for its novel midnight reviews. The present program includes an exhibition by Joe Neumritis, champion boxer, and a demonstration by Ted Buczynski, big chief of the Cleveland Indians. The decorations are as individual as the review due to the fact that they are the work of Alice Dahl. The next thing to attract our attention is a huge pile of dirt. At first sight we conclude that New York is building a new union station, but we later lcam that it marks the spot of Henry Bonkowsky’s experiment. He is attempting to prove that China does not lie directly beneath us, by cutting a hole through to the other side of the earth. We wonder what will happen if he accidentally taps the Pacific Ocean. We are also informed that the Woolworth building has changed hands. Marguerite Vargo, real estate agent supreme, has sold it to Hilda Edwards and Theresa List, to be used as an addition to their nationally famous Kindergarten. In all our sight seeing we have not caught sight of Steffie Kapusta. This worried us greatly until a friend reports that she has flown off to Osh Gosh to rescue a derelict dog which will be added to her prize collection of homeless and friendless creatures. With our last classmate thus accounted for we bid each other farewell and signed off. I settle back in my chair with a smile of satisfaction at the success of the golden anniversary reunion and of my school day companions. The class of June '25 have indeed fulfilled their motto “We finish to Begin.” LUCILLE WHAPHAM. THE LINCOLN I A GO History of the June Class of 25 “In nineteen-twenty-one We thought our struggle done; Four short years ago; Yet we had just begun Because” IN MODERN times people are of the opinion that eight years of education are not enough. So, of course, we came to Lincoln, very proud and vain. But as Solomon said, “Pride goeth before a fall.” That attitude did not last long. Once inside we were pushed about, jostled and stepped on by such a mad torrent of students as we had never seen before. In about an hour’s time we had gotten into every possible kind of trouble, but luckily we were dismissed for the day and returned home, some limping. some crawling, and some with their heads in slings. So began our career at Lincoln and so for many a day it continued. Our lives were made miserable not only by “that terrible Soph”, but also by certain members of the faculty. We just couldn’t grow used to home work and the sight of a book made us tremble. Nevertheless we managed to get through the term in fine shape and June of 1922 found us a step higher on the ladder of success. “A flat for a year's enough, And since we had learned to bluff— In nineteen-twenty-two We from Frosh to Sophomore grew.” We were back again at the old grind, but this time did not get lost for we were no longer Freshies, we were actually Sophomores! It was our turn now to kid “those ignorant little green things.” And we did it (to perfecton). Whereupon the Board of Education added the ninth grade to the Junior High Department. What a close call! We barely escaped Junior High orations! As we were now eligible to take part in certain activities many of us joined clubs. Those musically inclined entered the Orchestra or Band. Soon all the boys appeared very handsome in their military uniforms (that is, the few whose suits fit them and the few who knew how to roll their puttees). However, the rest soon mastered this art and at the close of the term looked good enough to capture a cup at the first military meet ever held at Edgewater Park. In nineteen-twenty-three, Full-fledged Juniors we; Dances now, and oratory. Athletics too, with fame and glory. September of the same year found us Juniors. But such a different atmosphere. The annex, started last spring, was now completed. The basement was partly remodeled. Each room had received a fresh coat of paint, which greatly added to the fine appearance of the school, while telephones gave classes a business-like air. With pleasanter surroundings it was much easier to study. Apparently many of us had grown serious, since there was a marked increase in grades. We were finding out that we were here for something else beside pleasure. THE LINCOLN!A GO Indeed, we now had responsibilities. We were allowed to go to informal and to take part in more activities. Several ambitious males tried out for the football team and their surprising success may be seen from the fact that they won hardly a game that year and not a one during the following season. “In nineteen-twenty-four, How those Freshies us did bore! We were Seniors! Imagine! Always stately! Always braggin’!” A person walking into one of our classes now would hardly recognize us as the same group of pupils who had started four years ago. The freckle-faced lads in knickers were now tall comely youths with neatly combed hair. The formerly giggling girls with braids hanging down their backs now stood in front of a cloak room mirror powdering their noses and combing their bobbed hair. Shoulders were broaders, figures taller and skirts were longer (though not for long). Everyone had a different appearance. It may all be attributed to the fact that we were now Seniors, Seniors at last. We WERE wise, conceited and bored, but how we did wilt when we walked upon the stage to deliver our orations! Well, there’s not much more to be said. We soon chose Theofile and Verne to lead us, while Tom took care of the cash and Ruth wielded the pen. Our informals were grand successes. Each one who knew how or at least thought he knew how to dance attended. And now that we have taken everything that Lincoln had to give us we must bid farewell. June, 1925, will see us off, the largest class that ever graduated from Lincoln! We have finished only to begin again! “In nineteen-twenty-five. Our class is yet alive, Standing at the crossroad— Which way to seek our new abode? Would that we could linger, here, At Lincoln, to us grown dear; But time bids, so we must hie Into the world. Lincoln—good-bye. —Ernest Remesch. THE LIN ( 0 L N I A 01 Orations First Set. November 21. English Authors and Playwrights.

THE LINCOENI A 68 CALENDAR OF EVENTS September 8: School opened and the first few weeks as usual were spent in organizing; thus it took a considerable length of time for the social activities of the school to begin. September 27: The “Trojan Women”, a Latin play, was given by Lincoln Latin students, many of whom were in our class. October 31: There came to pass one of the most important events in our four years’ course—the organization of our class. We decided upon our constitution, elected our officers and chose several committees. November 21: We began our careers as orators on Friday, for on that day the first set of orations of our class was presented. January 8: The Lincoln High Band, Orchestra and Glee Clubs, with several solos from each, broadcast from radio station WHK. January 14: The Friendship Club bade farewell to its Senior members at a banquet given in their honor at Lincoln. January 16: Our Basketball Season opened and, although it did not prove to be quite as successful as some former ones, it was one to be proud of. January 25: We finally received what we had been yearning for several months—our class rings. Althoug those who ordered enamel received their rings several days before those who preferred onyx. February 4: The first annual banquet of the Senior Girls’ Basketball team was given and numerals were awarded to those girls deserving them. February 11. Lincoln entertained Mr. Stagg, coach of the famous Chicago invincible football team, who addressed the students on the subject of clean, straight living.

Oh! what is so nice as a warm spring day The day of the bride and the groom. The trees once again unfold their leaves. The flowers are springing up, The birds once more are nesting in eaves, The meadow is yellow with the buttercup. Get out and enjoy what Nature can give. Thenes a joy that enters your heart, When you think that you are allowed to live And appreciate Nature’s fine art. Yes, what is so nice as a day in spring With all things alive and full of vim? The days seem to urge a person to sing And cause love-sick girls to think of “Him”. LYDIA C. DUWE. Here’s to our High School, Long may she live. Steadfast devotion To her we’ll give, For her glory and honor ever we’ll sing Until the echoes around shall ring! We’ll long remember Lincoln, We’ll always love her name. We’ll try to do her justice And bring to her more fame. For when we leave her portals We’ll aim to do our best, Twas there we got our start, 'Tis ours to do the rest. I II K I.1X CO I. I ’i Havi a Smoke? THE LINCOLN I A 7(5 TOASTS A Toast to the Seniors SENIORS! Our “four years before the mast” at Lincoln are about to terminate. We have spent these years at a place which we shall always hold dear in our memory. We have had many pleasant times mixed with sorrows and hard toil but we may truly say that these years are the happiest of our lives. As our motto “We Finish to Begin” implies, we are finishing our high school course, some to enter the business world, others to enter schools of higher education. We here wish to thank the faculty for their tireless efforts spent in our behalf. We also wish to thank the student body and all our other friends for their hearty support in all our school activities. We are like a fleet of ships in a harbor, about to hoist our sails. We may never meet again but if we do, let us hope that we may see the word, “Success” imprinted on our sails. A Toast to the Juniors YOU will soon be Seniors. Many responsibilities will fall upon your shoulders. May you nobly bear your burdens. May you be guided by a high standard. May you sustain your defeats bravely but may they be few. It is you, who will be members and officers of clubs, speakers at rhetoricals and members of the Log Staff. May you perform your various tasks capably. May your every effort be crowned with success. Keep Lincoln’s motto, “Vincit qui se vincit” in mind at all times. May you be Seniors of whom Lincoln may well be proud. The Seniors. T II E L 1 N C O . N I A 77 A Toast to the Sophomores r OPHS—now that the time has come for us to depart we feel indebted to you for a few farewell words. However, they are not to be those bestowed on you in lighter moods. Full well, we realize the trials of your first year. Thus to you we truthfully say, “Soph,your high school life has just begun. We hope you will regard it as something fine. A light that leads you on to happier days, a better education and higher ideals of both school and life. Though many of your friends may falter at the way-side, hold on ye Sophs! Farewell, and good luck!” The Seniors. Freshmen To our little novices, the Freshies: CEASE your wanderings, get your bearings, quit your nervous giggling, come down to earth and become a part of high school life. Boys, high school is neither a playground nor a zoo. Girls, it is neither a dressing room nor a matrimonial bureau. It is a place of higher instruction, where we learn those things which help us to a greater understanding of life. But while struggling toward the goal—the senior commencement, do not forget that the greatest men are not always presidents, but greatest of all men are those who strive to make this world a better place where greater knowledge, greater happiness and greater opportunities may be had by all, and where each may receive the full value of his toil. Always remember that success in life does not mean the gamering of wealth unto one’s self, but rather making one’s self a part of that forward movement by which humanity will eventually raise itself out of ignorance and poverty to a richer life. May this thought be with you always. THE SENIORS. 78 T H E I S t O j N 1 A THE LINCOLN I A 79 The Lighthouse THE rain fell down in torrents from the threatening: heavens, the thunder rolled noisily overhead and now and then a blinding flash of lightning illumined the inky darkness. The air had been stifling al! day and this sudden downpour of rain seemed a veritable blessing. Yet, it brought a half fear and sense of foreboding to the alert ears of Marjorie Norrington, who sat huddled up in bed peering anxiiously out into the dark night. In the distance she could glimpse the sheen of the lake which greedily swallowed up the pattering rain-drops. Huge waves broke with maddening fury against the solid rocks and then rushed up the beach as if trying to catch some unseen creature. Marjorie shivered slightly and breathed a silent prayer for the ships out in that unmerciful storm. It had all happened so suddenly and without any warning, so that few ships would be prepared for it. The utter darkness made it more fearful and then a fierce wind was blowing too. Marjie knew though that “Old Faithful” would be burning because its keeper, old Uncle Doane was very dependable on such a night. The lighthouse could not be seen from Marjie’s window but there was no need for worry and so she lay back on the bed and tried to go to sleep. It was a difficult matter but just as her eyelids were beginning to droop, a faint, brushing noise aroused her. She sat up with a jerk and squinted outside at the raging elements. The noise was repeated, but as she looked she saw' a branch of the old oak tree slap a leafy limb against the house. Dropping back. Marjie laughed nervously and called herself a baby, frightened at such a little thing. Once more she tried to forget the storm and to lose her thoughts in sleep. Flinging her hand out on the window sill, she dozed fitfully only to be awakened by the sting of rain drops on her upturned palm. Then as the thunder rested a minute, she heard a faint whistle. Her heart leaped and as she strained forward she heard it again, nearer and stronger. A familiar call it was, one only she and Dick, her sweetheart and pal knew. Something must have happened to him and he needed her. Pursing her lips, she answered the whistle, and after a pause once more. Hopping lightly out of bed she threw' on her clothes. She opened her door cautiously so as not to disturb her mother who would worry if she went out, and then stole noiselessly dowui the stairway to the side door. She slid back the catch and with a thumping heart stepped out into the splashing rain. Wrapping her coat about her, she started back into the gardens where she thought Dick might be. The air seemed to be filled with a thousand little devils slapping her face, seeking to drive her back, but she forged on and as she approached the oak tree a glimmer of lightning showed her a dark form crouched near its base. “Dick, Oh Dick,” she called. No answer. Venturing another step she called again. This time a faint groan came from the black shape and with a smothered cry, Marjorie knelt dowm, murmuring: “Oh, Dick! Dick! are you hurt?” Somehow' in the darkness Dick found Marjie’s hand, and pulling himself up with a grimace of pain he gasped brokenly: “Oh Marj’. You’ve come! the lighthouse—Uncle Doane—no—light; go, go, quick.” A flash of light revealed his w'an face with a stream of blood trickling down his left cheek. Marjorie’s eyes welled with tears at this sight and so THE LI N C 0 I- N I A she sat still not knowing whether to go on or stay with Dick. Should she hurry to the lighthouse which had no light and was perhaps endangering many lives thereby, or should she stay with Dickie who had been hurt. Dick Grayson broke in on her meditations with: “Don't worry about me, Marj. I’ll be alright, you go on to “Old Faithful” and see what happened. I’ll get your mother up somehow. Now go quickly.” Marjie grasped Dick’s hands with both her own, and then leaped up and hurried through the drenching storm down to the boathouse. Nearing the shore, she descried a boat already out, and wondering slightly how it had come there. But knowing she must lose no time she jumped into the boat and grasped the oars with a firm grip, she rowed with a vim, but the might of the splashing waves was almost too much for her. She fought gamely, however, biting her lips and clutching the oars so hard her nails bit into the flesh. In the misty offing she could distinguish the gaunt outlines of that guarding sentinel—the lighthouse—but no warm gleam shot over the restless waters this night. Something must certainly have happened to Uncle Doane who had earned for the lighthouse its nickname, “Old Faithful.” Marjorie plied her oars the faster to reach the small island on whch stood the beacon of safety. The wind whined a dismal solo about her head and relentlessly blew into her eyes, half blinding her. Suddenly a monstrous wave rose up and nearly capsized the tiny rowboat. Marjorie gasped and gulped down a distasteful mouthful of water. At last the prow of her boat struck the pebbled beach and she jumped out, dragging the skiff upon shore. Jamming her hat down about her ears, she then sped through the trees to the shelter of the lighthouse. Reaching it she groped for the doorway and finding it, flung the door open and sank exhausted to the floor within. But it was only for a minute. She soon sprang up and began to search for the stairway. There was no light of any kind and so she had to feel her way up the long, winding stairway to the tower. It was a familiar stairway though, since Marjorie had climbed it many times with Dick to talk with old Uncle Doane. Once she stumbled but picked herself up again and resumed the weary flight. At last she reached the tiny room which held the sacred ball of light which sent its guarding rays out to warn sailors of the perils lurking nearby. Feeling for the switch Marjorie turned it on, at once a brilliant shaft of light marked a veritable milky way out on the surging waters. Going to the window she peeked out, thinking perhaps to see some phantom ship riding the crested waves. It was no fairy float she saw but a heavy passenger boat just as it shot through the blaze of light, far, far out. Soon she heard a jolly toot, toot, and knew then she had sent some captain back into the right course again. A flicker of a smile crossed her face as she leaned wearily against the window closing her tired eyes and as she did so, the thought of Uncle Doane smote her. Where was he? Rushing down the stairs to the first landing she swung open the door to the bridge which lead across to Uncle’s living quarters. She flew wildly through the passage, and entered the room. A small lamp was burning here, but it was not visible from shore which explained the total darkness of the lighthouse. The room was empty but it was in disorder, an unusual thing. The chairs were all topsy-turvy and the carpet was all thrown over in a heap at one side. Uncle was not here. Fear now came to Marjorie who had been so valiant before and she reeled slightly as she approached the doorway to Uncle Doane’s bedroom. A light was here, too—but—there was no one in the room. Marjorie now grew frantic and began to cry softly, staring about in a horrified manner. THE LINCO I. X 1 A 81 Coming back into the room she had entered first, she dropped into a chair and glanced about, terrified. Then it was that some power drew her eyes to the carpet on the far side of the room. As she stared at it, the form of a man seemed to mold itself out of the shapeless mass. With a cry of mixed joy and fear, Marjorie fell to the floor and began to unroll the carpet with feverish haste. A thatch of gray hair, and the familiar face of old uncle came to view. His hands and feet were bound with heavy rope. Quickly undoing the awkward knots, Marjie rubbed the keeper’s sore wrists and propped him up against the wall. There was hot tea on the stove and Marjie soon had it piping hot to serve the old keeper. After a swallow or two he opened his eyes and gazed about dazedly until he saw Marjie smiling happily. “Child, child,’’ he muttered, “how did you get here, and is—” his eyes grew worried, “is the light a-buming?” “Yes, yes, Uncle,’’ answered Marjie, “I’ve just lit it, Dick knew something was wrong when it didn’t go on as usual and so he sent me over because he had been hurt.’’ Uncle Doane felt his head gingerly and explaining bitterly that he was going up as usual when two young varlits from the village had come in and seized him. One tied him up while the other made off with the little hoard of money in a brass teapot a-top the mantel. Getting up rather feebly, the old keeper eyed Marjorie, and said: “Well, little girl, we don’t care about the money do we, but we sure do care about “Old Faithful’’ burning on a night like this, heh?’’ Why The Desert Course Last WHY the dessert course last? There, indeed, is a question to make the present generation pause and ponder. True, dessert always has been served last but that is not a point in its favor quite the contrary, for today it is considered unmodem and mid-Victorian to do a thing as it has been done before. This is the era of advancement, customs and conventions of ages are being ruthlessly uprooted. Why should the dessert course escape the modern trend, why not advance it? What delightful futuristic results would be obtained by eating apple pie before the soup. On second consideration this statement may be a bit inaccurate, the result would no doubt be dreams, probably futuristic ones, but not quite so assuredly delightful ones. We might even hint darkly of indigestion if that were not mid-Victorian. What hostess, no matter how modern, would dare to risk the storm of criticism which would arise at even the most unconventional of bunco parties if she were to serve the ice cream before the sandwiches? Why ,we demand, should this condition be so? Is not serving dessert last mid-Victorian or is it merely wise? When we were young (should we say younger?) we recollect dutifully if grudgingly assimilating innumerable and sundry vegetables which were to be good for our something or other, borne up and urged on by the promise of the ultimate reward of dessert. Perhaps therein lies the fundamental reason for serving dessert last. What disaster might fall on the race if it were not necessary to eat nourishing foods in order to arrive at the delectable dessert. Whatever the reason may be for its unassailable position we see no prospect for immediate change, for men may come and men may go but dessert comes last forever. —Lucille Whapham. 82 THE LINCOLN! A The Lincoln Log A SCHOOL paper? Too much responsibility and after it is printed, it isn’t worth the time and effort spent preparing it.” These were the general comments voiced when the subject of a school paper was broached. At length Mr. G. P. Kerr undertook the editing and publishing of a four-page magazine which was known as the Lincoln Observer. However, the paper was not supported and the first number was the last. In 1920 under the supervision of Miss Lula J. Van Fleet, a 16-page periodical was started. The name, The Lincoln Log, was suggested by Mrs. Gibbons, the grandmother of Ray Gibbons, editor-in-chief of the new magazine. The purpose of the journal was to record the doings and events in the school just as ships log records the activities which take place on board the vessel. The members of the staff were: Corwin Roach, William Boker, George Murray, Robert Leahy, Caroline Monks, Dorothy Knight and Bonita Witt. The motto was: ‘‘With Malice Toward None and Charity for All.” The departments were: Literary, Athletics, Alumni, School Items, Societies and Junior High. Mr. J. D. Stay assumed the business management. The magazine grew until in 1924 it was a 40-page monthly periodical containing the five original departments and two adctitional ones. Library, Wit and Humor were the new divisions. The staff also included several cartoonists. A survey of other school journals showed that in most cases, newspapers had taken the place of magazines and in 1924 The Lincoln Log was published as a bi-weekly paper. The journalism class wrote the articles and published the paper under the supervision of Miss Myra McCoy. Jack Foster was editor. His staff was composed of Ruth Glover, June Schmehl, Lester Stolte, Charles Vogel, John Howell, Edward Martin, Hilda Malon and Lois Wedel. For one year the Log was issued every two weeks. The second term the editorship was given to Robert Patterson. He proved to be a competent editor enabling the paper to win second place among second class journals in a contest held by the University of Wisconsin. In February, 1925, another change was made in The Log. It became a six-column weekly gazette. An editorial staff composed of Lucille Whap-ham, Julius Huszovsky and Anna Murphy was appointed by Miss McCoy. The departments were: Sports, Home Room. Exchange, Feature, Flotsom and Jetsom, Junior High, Clubs, Girls’ Sports and Military. The Log gained recognition in a recent contest when it was judged to be the third best paper published by first class schools. Much of the credit for the improvement of the Log belongs to Miss McCoy who by her steady perseverance and hard work has enabled the students of Lincoln to be justly proud of their school publication. While The Log belongs to the school as a whole it is really an activity of the English department, for Miss Van Fleet, then head of the English Department, intended it to serve as an incentive to better work by providing a place where the better pupils might see their work in print. Miss McCoy, the present Faculty Advisor, is a member of the English Department and the journalism classes belong, of course to this department. T H K 1.1 N C 0 I. N I A S3 THE PLEASURE OF LOAFING How often we hear people say, “Oh how I wish I had just a few weeks in which to do just as I like, without feeling that I am neglecting my work and not doing my duty as I ought. Whenever I hear anyone say these words, I heartily endorse them. What pleasure it would be for me to wake up in the morning and find the sun shining brightly and inviting me out for an enjoyable day. What a relief it would be for me to feel free to neglect my English, Latin and other subjects and duties and make the day yield only pleasure and rest. I would lie in bed until satisfied ,eat a leisurely breakfast; spend the rest of the morning getting dressed to go to the theatre. After the theatre a quiet dinner would finish my active day. I would then go home, settle myself on the davenport with plenty of cushions—a box of chocolates and the most romantic love story I could find. Then I would drift away from the every day world to the land of make believe, where the poor heroine marries the wealthy hero and lives in luxury and happiness the rest of her days. —Emma Anwaerter, 12A A DAY DREAM It is the bonnie ocean That holds much mystery, And often do I sit and think And wonder what it has for me. The pirate days of yore Come flashing o’er my brain— My body quivers with delight As I behold the Spanish Main. I see the rolling ships, Their decks, cargoes and all; I hear the booming cannons, And see the bodies fall. Great treasure chests are there Of massie size and hold— Upon their glittering burnished tops Lay human bodies cold. The spell is broken! Gone is the dream of pirate lore; I thank the Heavenly Father That pirates were of yore. TED NOWAKOWSKI 84 THE LINCOLN!

THE LIN ( 0 L N I A S5 Thoughts on An Oration Before, After, and In Between JUST TO start you thinking, why is it that, just before you’ve given your oration, nobody seems to care whether you have or not? Why is it that, after you’ve given your oration everyone you meet asks you, “Have you given your oration?” Was your voice really as wee as it sounded to you? Or are they just trying to tell you it wasn’t much of an oration after all? Have you given your oration? Yes-No? Then listen. To begin with you must have a subject. You decide on one. You decide you’d like to give an oration on, oh let’s say on “The Symphony of Colors.” Yes, you decide your subject and then you find the teacher has also decided, which means, of course you have'nt decided anything. Then you rehearse. Yes, rehearse. But first you write. Yes, write. So does Miss McCoy. So do you. And so does Miss McCoy, but with a red pencil. Oh, yes, you write. Now with the teacher’s help you decide it is fit to be memorized—and so you memorize. So do your mother and father. By the time you know it, the whole neighborhood does, too. Well, anyway you memorize. Then you learn not to sing. Really you never know you have a good voice until you give an oration. Of course you are the only one who thinks so. Miss Marchand doesn’t. Another thing you learn for the first time that you have been talking pigeon English. You learn how to pronounce such difficult words as—duty an deducation and others of like nature. You learn, too, that you must leave a space between words. Making three words sound like one saves time, but it “isn’t being done.” If you’ve been through this you know what I mean. If you haven’t, wait. You’ll find out. I had to. Dancing and long distance walking are a great help when giving an oration. One of the chief objects of an oration is to obtain perfection in walking. You must walk so that no one will know you are walking. The morning of the day you give your oration you spend considerable time getting dressed up. From then until your name is announced by the presiding officer, you spend your time swallowing your heart. You wait hours and hours while the two before you say something—yes, that’s something. Then your name is announced and you stagger forth (not forgetting to bow to your presiding officer). Y'ou stand for ages and stare stupidly at your audience. Then you open your mouth. You begin. Yes begin. You make funny sounds. You know they’re funny because every face you see is grinning at you. Sometimes the windows are open, and they pin, too. Then suddenly from the mist you vaguely recall a few of your instructions. You say more and more and suddenly you have no more to say. It must be that you’ve finished. You take a chance and step back. It’s over. A Afterwards—Oh well—all I’ve written is afterwards. I’ve given mine. 86 THE LINCOLNI A Tardiness IT seems to be the fashion to be tardy now,—indeed when has it not been the fashion? To be tardy to school in the morning, to be late to every class except lunch, that seems to be the habit of those who are always up to date (as they think). What day is not begun perfectly by coming to school at least five minutes after it has started. Then to make matters better, delay the teacher in beginning the recitation by making all the noise it is possible to make. So you proceed through the day; being late for every class. It is understood, though, that when your lunch period follows a recitation you should be sure to be first downstairs and in line. That is one period of the day when you can consider it good taste to be early. Another rule of the “fashionable tardy” class is to hand in any lessons late. It would be unpardonable to read a book report so as to have it ready on time. We may expect some, I suppose, who are striving to get on in life and who are prompt about everything they do. Not only in school are people tardy, but in the world of business as well. Any disagreeable job is usually the neglected one. Pleasure is man’s enjoyment and occupation so work may be neglected to engage in pleasure. Those who jeer loudest at the energetic business man are usually those who are the longest in getting their feet on solid ground from which to view the world with confidence. Fashionable may be taken literally when attached to tardiness on Easter Sunday, that wondrous day when all the world puts on new robes and struts about to “show off.” The young lady with a new hat and the middle aged lady with a new spring coat will both strive to be the latesl to church so as to show the latest fashion and allow people to admire them. However, as fashonable as tardiness may be, it is not very profitable, as millions of dollars have been lost by the delay of one person in presenting himself at the proper time, and we find the laggards are usually at the same posts throughout life as a penalty for being always late. _________________ —Ruth Martin. TO A JACK-1N-THE-PULPIT Oh little preacher of the hills In your pea-green pulpit box! You cannot say a single word, And yet—What lessons you have taught! To the one who is discouraged And fears that no one cares, When he sees you gentle preacher, You bring a message rare. He will think about the Father, Who has made the world so bright, Who keeps the woodland preacher Where to do his best he might. And the downcast one remembers That his Maker really knows, Of his trouble and his sorrow, And goes forth to face his woes. MARION WILLIAMS. is v i i o.) x i i a h x ss T II K L I N C O I.

There's a catch in each throat, in each eye a tear, As we sigh mute farewells to our classmates here. We implore the return of the joys we have known, Friendly ham clasp and smile, but lo! they are gone! But surely this parting should not make us sad. Without offering something for which to be glad. We are saying good-bye to dear friends, it is true, But we’re given the chance to begin life anew, To avoid past mistakes, a new leaf to turn o’er, Become better men and women than we’ve e’er been before Then why should we the present rue? We end but to begin anew! Our true friends and pals will be lost to us never, Death itself lacks the power bonds of friendship to sever! There’s no limit, ’tis said, to the power of the will To accomplish wild hopes ,one’s ideals to fulfill. So may we succeed, by sincerest endeavor, To improve on our past, to make ourselves better! Then why should we the present rue— We end but to begin anew! —Evelyn Claus. DR. E. A. WOMACKA DENTIST 4208 Clark Ave. Waibel Hardware Co.

Now we’re a bit hazy as to whether they’re lazy When they are thus inclined. They sit and dream and it really does seem As though they are losing their mind. For now it is spring and the birds all sing And make our hearts feel gay; We rustle the trees and frighten the bees, As we go on our way. It seems so odd, as we tramp o’er the sod That folks have heavy heart, When the sun does shine, then let's not whine But everyone do his part. ELVERNA HOFFMAN.

And how quickly time flies! The good intentions of yesterday unless put into action today are worse than useless, for they act as a hypnotic, and produce a false sense of security which isn’t worth much to pay bills for the wife and kiddies when the minister has said the last words at your last little party at which you are the principal, but silent member. In 1922 The New York Life Insurance Company paid to the beneficiaries of 10,649 people—men and women who had planned for tomorrow—the sum of $33,737,607.22. $675,534.56 of this amount was double, because the insured died of accident and the face of their policies were doubled. 21,361 people applied for insurance, but couldn’t buy it on account of physical defects. Waited too long, in other words. We all know it is best to plan for tomorrow and create an estate by depositing a very small percent of the principal each year with the “Old Reliable,” The New York Life Insurance Company. C. W.
