LEWIS FGREWGRD No journey into unknown countries or unchartered seas is half so thrilling as that voyage which each one makes in discover- ing himself. To find within, an unsuspected power to write a poem or paint a picture or to stir the hearts of people with music or speech or to make something strong and beautiful with one's hands-is to share with all the great adventurers of the world the exultation of discovery. Given the opportunity, we would all be World explorers. Lincoln provides the opportunities whereby we may all be self-explorers. Every adventure lest it be mere aimless wandering must have a leader to point the way. The leader must be wise to know whither he would go; he must be fearless to keep to the course he has set: and he must be sincere to hold the trust of those who follow. Our principal, Mr. Fred D. Lewis, has invited us to accom- pany him in the great adventure of self-discovery and under his leadership, we have eagerly begun our voyage. Fortunate are the uoyagers who heed warnings; they need not fear shipwreck. CQNTENTS II. M. 11111. IV. V. VI. V111. VIM.

LINCOLN LIFE ANNUAL STAFF When the good ship, Lincoln. began its yearly voyage last September it became the duty of the Annual Staff to chronicle the important events of the voyage 01 in other words, to edit the log- book. This work has been especially interesting this year because of our many special activi- ties. Never before have so many oppor- tunities for discovering and developing talent been offered our voyagers. In order to do our work more perfectly, we have studied other annuals. uThe Scholas- tic Editor, and score sheets for previous years. We have written stories, poems. write- ups and so forth and have had them criticized. Some very interesting discussions have arisen over the selection of appropriate mate- rial for the year- book. The members of the stafir and the adviser Mrs. Michelsen hope that you Will enjoy reading our year- book as much as we have enjoyed editing it.

BUSINESS STAFF To finance the publishing of the log-book has been the purpose of the Business Staff and adviser, Miss Tice. With this end in view two groups have been working. The advertising group has canvassed the busi- ness houses of the local district. as well as down- town districts, to interest business concerns in advertising in our year- book. The boys and girls have had many valuable experiences in meeting the public which have developed in them poise, alertness. self-confldence, and some knowledge of the game of advertising. Much credit is due this group as all the work has been done outside of regular school hours, and many sacrifices have been made. The other group has worked to promote the sales of the annual. Each member has solicited pledges for the annual from his home-room .classmates Who had not already signed for it through the budget plan. ,l:,,- u First row, left to rig ht--Bernard Lenske, Irwin Dahl Della Brown, Janet Rivord, Jane Ilcrnhagen, Helen Olson, Mary Sagmet, Celia Marcus.

LINCOLN LIFE STAFF The meoln Life our school paper, furnishes staff members journalistic experience encourages those interested 111 writing and discovers latent ability It aims to serve the school by printing real news in journalistic style; to foster right attitudes toward the standards of the school through the editorial depa1tment and discrimination in judging good newspaper material. The LGcoln sze is published bi- weekly under the supe1vision of Miss Nora Barron, Faculty Adviser. It is printed in the school print shop. 1,200 copies of each issue are printed. and sold to the pupils for fifteen cents a semester. During the three years of its existence, the paper has more than paid all of its expenses. Experience gained through work on the Lincoln Life has assisted a large number of former staff members to secure positions on the senior high school paper. Besides furnishing publicity to all school activities, it offers a real opportunity to pupils who have literary ability.

It consists of a boy and a girl from each home room. The group is divided, the boys headed by Mr. Fisher and the girls by Miss Doherty. One of the chief duties of the council is to see that school laws are not violated; To fulfill this aim members are stationed in vari- ous sections of the building during passing times. Other services are rendered in the lunch room. and out on the lawns. All offenders are brought before a regular court and given a hearing according to regular par- liamentary procedure. ,m-i Wm First row, left to righteBernard Fineberg, Benny Peis, Amy Stock, Harriet Aalbu, Marian Schekman, u Rauch.

THE ORCHESTRA Music is the universal language through Which all people may communicate. In our orchestra the bass tuba, the comet, the clarinet, even down to the tiny piccolo, furnish their part in serving one of Lincolnis chief activities. Our orchestra consists of eighty-two mem- ORCHE STRA bers and from these about forty or hfty are L Jl H H J chosen to play on special occasions. The midwinter and spring festivals gave ample work for the members and besides this work they have also given entertainment to the children and teachers during auditorium periods and to our parents at the P. T. A. meetings. Under the careful supervision of Mr. Lewis and Mrs. Harper, the leader, the orchestra has flourished, and it is gratifying to know that many of the members plan to continue their musical education and make music their voe cation.

THE GIRLS, BAND The Girls Band was organized in April, 1924, with twenty-seven members. So far as we know this is the only girlsi band in any junior high school. A second band has since been organized so that girls may be ready to fill the places of those Who finish junior high school. During the past year the band has played at the following places: Donaldson's Tea Rooms, Jefferson Junior High School, Music Auditorium of University of Minnesota. Nicollet Hotel, Lake Harriet, Minnehaha Park, and for radio WAMD. Several members of the original band have deiinitely decided to become professional musicians, of whom we men- tion Mary Berman, cornet; Fern Aalbu, clarinet: and Ionc Larson, sarrusophone. In competition with the Junior High School bands of the 13th District of Which Minneapolis is a part, our band won first place. This contest took place on Friday. May 6, 1927. There were no other Junior High bands in the state to enter the contest, therefore our band has first place in the state DL contest. Mrs. Florence Harper is the director.

BOYSi GLEE CLUB e With all their heart and soul our tenors and basses harmoniously raised their voices and helped produce two of the stage successes of the school year, namely, Nearly a Honeymooni' and uThe Love Pirates of Hawaii. The mainyroles were sung by the two best tenors in Lincoln, name- ly: Arne Riekke and Charles Epstein. Besides these operettas, the boys have sung for the school at auditorium periods. To broaden the held of music at Lincoln Junior High is one of the greatest aims of this club. A special effort is made to discover and help develop talent in the line of singing. Seven such discoveries have been made this year, they are: Arne Riekke, Charles Epstein, Bennie Meltzer, Solomon Fisher, Arnold Greenberg, Sol Lipkin, and Bertram Thornton. Mrs. Moseley is the leader of the Glee Club.

THE GIRLS GLEE CLUB Among the many helpful activities in Lincoln, the Girls' Glee Club ranks among the highest. Herc those who have good singing voices may learn to blend theirs with others to produce the best harmony. Besides singing at auditorium periods and at P. T. A. meetings, this club has helped to give sev- eral operettas this year. The hrst was iiThe Love Pirates of Hawaii. A little later, HNearly :1 Honey- moon was given, and in May uGreeting the Gypsy Queen was staged. While practicing for these several beautiful soprano voices were discovered. The girls possessing these talents are Margaret Lower, Mollie Mattas, Sylvia Herscovitz, and Hannah Weinberg. Mrs. Mosely is the faculty adviser.

ART CLUB Did you notice the beautiful scarf that girl wore last evening and the handkerchief to match it? Well, she made them herself; You see she belongs to Miss King,s Art Club in Room 211 Where they make all kinds of useful and decorative articles. Besides dyeing handkerchiefs and scarfs, they have made hooked rugs and pillow tops, lamp shades, and curtain pulls. Looms were set up and threaded a few months' ago and since then they have been weaving rag rugs, scarfs, and table runners. Linoleum blocks ap- plied to textiles and lead tiles for paper weights have also been made. Bookbinding and portfolio work has been done. The children have made bird and fiower books, telephone covers, kodak and stamp albums. Besides making articles, a portion of the time has been devoted to art appreciation or the study of artists and famous paintings. Their aim really has been to design and make practical articles for themselves, school, and home-and gain a broader knowledge of art.

This club organized at the beginning of the school year With Mrs. De Fore as adviser. The aim, this year, has been to apply the principles of design and color, as learned in the regular classes, to a variety of forms and materials. Some of the things made are lamp shades, note book covers, fireside brooms and waste baskets. Some book-binding also been done. The stage decorations for the Gypsy play and Operetta were made by this club. The members have found that ability to make these things leads to a happier life and gives much enjoyment to others as well as to one's self. Lucille Bacal has done more art work for this annual than any other one pupil in school.

DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club of Lincoln though only four years old has grown so large that in September of the past year a special ninth grade club was organized, leaving the orig- inal club a membership of thirty-two with Miss Beedon in charge. The club this year has made a study of American speech habits, and has tried to cor- rect or improve at least a few of our typical speech errors. Another aim of the club has been to develop an appreciation of the better things in literary and dramatic productions. 0r helds.

THE PUBLIC SPEAKING AND DEBATING CLUB The Public Speaking and Debating Club 18 composed of forty members. T hey aim to overcome their poor speech habits, and strive to learn how to assimilate material on a subject and put it into logical order for a speech and then deliver it effectively. For practice work they have pretended to broadcast speeches held mock trials: and given banquet speeches With one person act- ing as toastmaster. They have worked on extemporaneous U speaking and worked up speeches on subjects ' of school interest and sponslored pep meetings . , to put across school projects such as the 2 budget plan. A playlet called The Three 4; . i Pixies was written and given by them to promote the sale of Christmas seals. An eX- temporaneous speaking and an oratorical con- test have been held in the auditorium. Much of the time has been devoted to de- bating. Several interesting debates have been held this year.

LIBRARY CLUB There is no frigate like a book To take us lands away With this chantey the Library Club set sail. They learned first how to keep their craft ship-shape, each volume neat and in its proper place. In the sea of books the card catalog was their mariner's compass, and the Readers' Guide was the star to steer by among the maga- zine waves. Shivering timbers! Those en- cyclopedias, how they were overhauledf Once the sailors landed at a foreign port and in the bindery of the Main Library observed how worn books are made new. In the Museum they studied the ways of strange bugs and friendly reptiles. They have gathered to- gether the history of the school and are col- lecting programs of all entertainments given here. In gaily colored booklets go the names of the books the voyagers read. They are off for the haven of Better and Better Reading with the guidance of Miss Crosby, our 1i- brarian.

NEWSBOYST CLUB The Lincoln Newsboys' Club aims to raise the standard of social fitness of its members, and to offset unfavorable environmental inHuences. The club Tr intends to accomplish these aims by athletic x ?'T activities and the carrying out of group proj- T. i ects to impress into the minds and hearts of boys a finer conception of clean living, clean thinking, and unselfish service to their fellow- men. This club was organized last February under the leadership of Mr. Weld. It is com- posed of twenty-five wide-awake hustlers. During the spring and summer months. the club conducted a successful season in baseball. Soccer in the fall, and basketball in winter occupied the boys' time out of doors. In the spring and summer months, the careless walking of the pupils on school lawns presented a new difficulty. Members of the club were stationed at intervals around our building to guard our lawn. Offenders were brought before the next regular meeting of the club, which acting as a court of justice, heard charges and defense and administered punishment as the occasion warranted.

The girls have made articles of clothlng for themselves, tied and dyed luncheon sets and scarfs, besides making various articles for a holiday sale. They take great pleasure and pride in planning and making costumes for plays and entertainments given during the school year. They have made the costumes for the Operetta, the Indian Dance, the Sailor's Horn Pipe Dance, the Farmer's Dance and the 9A class play. As a climax to our termis work, the girls Will study color, design, and construction in making costumes for the May Music Festival.

How can we help to make the home the happiest place in the world? The gltls are learning the many things that they may do in order to help their mothers and make their homes a better place in Which to live. They aim to be able to take responsibility. to give their services to others, to look for and create beauty around the home, and to elevate home tasks above the plain of drudgery. The girls have prepared foods for the cafe- teria, made candy for home room and other club sales, filled orders for cakes. cookies, and pies, have baked cookies for a Children's Home, helped prepare luncheons for guests in the building. prepared foods for parties given by different organizations, had a food sale of their own and are planning another. Late in the spring they will prepare and serve a picnic lunch. Their cooking teacher. Mrs. Beise, is ad viser to this group. Fi1st row, left to right--Edward Miller, Leo Cohen, Norman Bloom.

CAMP COOKERY The boys of the camp cooking class have felt the call of Back to Nature for their recreation, have felt the thrill of the camp tire, the pangs of hunger while cooking their meal the awe of the wide open spaces and have experienced the joy of fellowship with kindred pals in the great out- of- doors. To fan this camp flame into a 1oaring blaze IS the object of the club. To accomplish this aim they have studied foods, first; their keeping qualities, second; those With low percentage of water, thus re- ducing the load, like hydrated foods. Then they took up the meal work. breakfast, din- ner, and supper, and planned balanced menus with the least amount of time and energy expended. Cooking a juicy steak, in the woods, over an open fire, spurred by a keen appetite and finally, eating that of your own making fills one With a satisfaction that is unknown to those who have not experienced it.

TYPE CLUB The type club is composed of both boys and girls. It has twenty-eight members. Anyone taking type is eligible. The club is a great help to its members in many ways. First: those who have no typewriter at home have this extra period, enabling them to keep up with their fellow students. Seo ondly: they are taught to be dependable, attentive, punctual, and neat, to be cheerful and adaptable, because the types of oches they must work in are many and varied. Discussions are held so that all members can voice their opinions on such subjects as atti- tudes, manners and dress in an office. Many of the more advanced students type for the Annual and Lincoln Life. The beginners are allowed to type on their own les- sons during club period except when discussions are being held. The club is now preparing a play. featuring the proper way to apply for a position. Miss Northey, their type teach- er, is in charge. -.I 1.

The objects of the club are to increase the interest of the members in common phenomena, to co-operate With the Treasurer; Gene Burr itih$ 1 ti science classes in obtaining data and perform- ing experiments, to investigate the correctness of weather forecasts, and to make more care ful observations and to better understand scientific happenings. Some of our daily aims are to forecast weather conditions during our cruise and to compare them With reports received over the radio, and to keep a record of the weather. The club assembles various instruments and machines. Studies of chemistry, physics, and popular magazines are carried on. Investiga- tions of chemical industries such as glass making are made. An acquaintance With practical tests, formulae, and scientic methods is also made. At the present time, the boys are generating electricity by means of a small steam engine and motor.

THE AMPERE CLUB fy The Amperes Club is composed of a group of boys interested in electricity. This club aims mainly to give the boys a working knowledge of electrical appliances used in the home and to discover and help improve any bent along electrical lines. The boys are allowed to experiment or construct anything they are interested in. Much repair work on household appliances has been taken care of. Some boys have con- structed radios, telegraph sets. motors and so forth. The boys are allowed to use the elec- tric shop library and may study, read, or play any problem The organization has a regular meeting four times a week.

The club assembles every school day except Friday to practice accuracy, skill, visualization, and co-operation through the mechanical drawing work. 'O'M Especially do they need accuracy and co-op- eration. The first is always important in indus- trial work. The latter is developed by having several boys work on separate parts of the same project. This compels them to consult With one another and to take anotheris judgment into i consideration. The club practices during the home room bi period and holds a meeting every Tuesday. The members of the club have decided that in order to improve their work only those With an A and B average in Mechanical Drawing are eligible T to enter. As this club is quite new, the members are discussing and planning on how they can im- prove and develop the work of the club in the C '5'. j future. Mr. Bart is the adviser.

HANDICRAFT CLUB . Hearing a loud clatter, I strolled off the deck to locate the cause of the n01se. The commotion seemed to come from a shop in which a class of carpenters was working. I found that this was the Handicraft Club. The purpose of this club is to give every interested boy a chance to work in a shop where he can plan and carry out his own ideas and make things for his school or his home, to inspire him to more and better work along the lines he is most interested in, and to take a just pride and interest in all school and home properties. The club is building and caring for all stage property. Many Christmas presents were made this year. An endless procession of lacquered ducks, rabbits. chickens. dogs. and Andy Gumps came forth from that shop Christmas week. The boys have complete charge of the whole shop. They check their tools and supplies in and out and clean up the shop after finishing their work. Mr. Lama is the adviser.

MINNEAPOLIS CLUB The Minneapolis Club was organized last February by a group of boys and girls Who Wished to learn more about their city. They realized that knowledge of this kind would enable them to live as citizens more worthy of the many opportunities that Minneapolis offers. With this thought in mind they set to work. They have made a trip to the east shore of Lake Calhoun where they discovered and took a picture of the bronze tablet which marks the site of a cabin erected by Gideon Pond when he came into this territory to work among the Indians. On the same trip they found the tablet north of the waiting station at Lake Harriet Which marks the site of the first school house in Minneapolis. Members of the club are now working on booklets which are to include pictures, clip- pings, and written material concerning Min- neapolis, beginning with its very early history.

THE TRAVEL CLUB The Club was organized With the slogan See America Firstf' The vastness of our country blurs our vision The details of nearness are I j confusing. We fail to see the forest because of the trees Our aim is to get a bird 8- eye view of the United States, to know the places of real in- terest in our country, and, having seen them, learn to paint word pictures for those whose travels have not been along our way. Our iirst project was to see our own state in order that we might discover the position it holds in comparison with other states in its opportunities for health, wealth, and recre- ation. To summarize our work on Minnesota, we debated the question, iiResolved that Minne- sota is the best state of the Union in which to live.' The work is carried on with the aid of books, pictures, and slides from the Library. MR'MWLOFF Mrs. Morrison is in charge of this club First row, left to right--Pauline Levins.

HISTORICAL CLUB The Historical Club was organized in February, 1927. Our purpose is to study interesting periods of the world's history and the lives of its great leaders. a We have spent several weeks on the life of Napoleon and the French Revolution. At present, we are studying the life, religion, and laws of the Greeks, as a preparation for the study of the achievements of Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar. We plan to study early Egypt and Rome as well as the Crusades and then some more modern iigures and events. We hope to have time to read more of the great historical novels. However, utruth is stronger than 13c- tion as we have all learned since we began this course of reading. The club has twenty-two enthusiastic members. Mrs. Cowling is the faculty adviser.

CIVICS CLUB The Civics Club aims to stress social effi- ciency among its members It is especially trying to create interests connected with our leisure time outside of school because one of the urgent problems of social adjustment is to keep young people happily and busily occu- pied during time of thei1 own control. That is one of the reasons we are interesting our- selves in gardens this spring Many of our members are going to have gardens of thei1 own. We plan to build a walk with moneV which the club has earned. The club will add to the fiower garden and anticipate sev- eral trips for gathering specimens. Among the past activities of the club we list the followinge-a campaign for good A manners two debates with the Public Speak- ing Club and an Armistice Day program. in the auditorium. It handled the stage setting for the 'Enchanted Gardenf ' and the presen- . tation of the comedy Christmas at Skeeter s 0 Corner Mrs Bolinger is the faculty adviser. 6-.

THE ARITHMETIC CLUB The Arithmetic Club of room 223, altho'ugh organized at the beginning of the second semester, has proved a success in its work, by gaining speed satisfaction, and school spirit. In Iorder to gain this We have had much practice in work ing for accuracy. Our work does not only consist of arithmetic but also of short meth- ods and number tricks. The source of our information is Wide and varied Each mem- ber has contributed to the club discussion by bringing in number tricks that have been handed down for generations or recently pub lished by current scientilic magazines. Our friends and members of our families have learned to look. to us for amusement in nume her magic. Our little club consists of thirty boys and girls of the seventh and eighth grades. We are all aiming to be the best mathe- maticians in Lincoln Junior High, and are also doing their best to make Miss Shone- baum glad to be their adviser.

The Mathematics Club is composed of pupils taking ninth grade mathe- matlcs. Various topics Which are both interesting and instructive are studied so as to obtain a better understanding of the subject. Attempt is made to solve problems by methods not used in the regular class work. The fundamentals in arithmetic and ninth grade mathematics have been reviewed and short processes in computation discussed and practiced so as to gain speed and accuracy. The lives of some of the mathematicians have been studied and their contributions noted. Numerous problems without figures have been solved. Puzzles and bcatch problems Which have interested boys and girls for thou- sands of years have been considered. These puzzles have aroused a great deal of enthusi- asm and investigation. While we are enjoying ourselves, we are Jtmme becoming more efficient in solving which is Z :13?me our ultimate purpose. Miss Carlson has charge of this club.

THRIFT CLUB To promote habits of thrift among Lincoln pupils is the purpo-sekof the Lincoln Thrift Club which is now composed of a representative from each home room. The Council meets four days a week. In their meeting the members try to find the best ways of teaching the various forms of thrift; time, health, property, money, and community thrift. In Decem- ber 21 program was given at the Parent-Teachers' meeting. The boys wrote and presented a play ene titled uThe Trial of Waste. The girls showed a group of shadow pictures called The Daily Dozens of Jack and Jill Thrifty and a style show of cos- tumes suitable for school girls. On Monday of each week, the representatives choose a thrift quotation which they place on the board of their home room. And on Thursday they report any acts of thrift which have taken place during the week. This is done for the purpose of correlating the work of the Thrift Council with the activities of each home room. 05' Miss Huseby is the adviser.

NATURE CLUB .The chlldren 0f the pioheer days knew and understood nature beyond the pOSSIbllltleS of the modern City pupil. Our great cities have pushed into the W, background the interesting life found in the v trees, the soil, and our birds. Our love, our appreciation and even our knowledge of these v beauties of nature have died. Miss Hoy, as adviser, desires to acquaint the members of the nature club With the wonders of nature. They should know what the birds, insects and trees do for us, which are helpful and which are harmful, and how they affect our lives. Some people have such silly fears of per- fectly harmless and oftentimes beneficial ' V creatures like the dragon fly. This is oneaof $ man's best friends, because it devours ies iv 'MLQK and mosquitoes. Before the end of the year the boys and girls will have classified a num- ber of trees, flowers, birds, and insects. iiTwo men looked through the prison bars, One saw mad: the other, stars?

BOYSi SWIMMING CLUB There is nothing more cool nor more refreshing than a dive in the Lincoln pool. More than one boy has landed in 226 after school because ,of his mind wandering to the swimming pool during an English class: but how could he help it? Due to the many Lincoln swimmers this year, there are two classes. The beginners are those who can- not swim, and are taught simple swimming strokes. The advanced class are those boys Who are good swimmers, but Who wish to learn speed swimming, fancy diving, and lifesaving. Any boy Who cannot swim is a danger to the public. Take for instance a boy who is swimming in a lake and goes too far out. If he can swim he is safe, but if not, he will grab someone else or depend on some person to risk his life to save him. For this reason the beginners class under the supervision of Mr. Fisher is working hard on learning how to swim.

TUMBLING The aim of the tumbling team is to build strong and physically fit bodies. Tumbling makes you feel fit, healthy, and full of pep. The Lincoln,s team this year is about the most advanced and snappiest team that ever invaded the Lincoln gym. The tumbling group consists of three classes, the A, the B, and the C. The A class is well advanced, the B is the medium group, and the C is the beginning group. The A class works on back handsprings, backflips, and distance diving; the B on flysprings, handsprings, and frontfiips, While the C class works on forward rolls and headsprings. The A class team has performed in many of Lincolnis programs. In these programs iiBob Lane demon- strates his backflip, Alfred Falk his distant diving, Robert Brademann his back pitch, and Sam Banick, the midget, his speedy headsprings. Mr. Fisher, the physical instructor, has charge of the three teams. I-t'XI-xmn'aim. k V'NV'; X.

CAMP FIRE GIRLS The Nowetompatimmin Group of the Camp Fire Girls was organized at Lincoln with a charter membership of twenty girls on May 17, 1926. Our name means We are friends. We have a watchword which is a combination of the first two letters of the words, work, health, and love, Wohelo. Our slogan, Give Service, is the second of the seven points which we call our law. To help us live up to our slogan we have taken charge of the collecting, distributing, and laundering 0f the towels which have been supplied to the rest rooms every morning. At the Grand Council Fire, composed of all the groups in the city, held at the Radisson Hotel in February, two of our girls, Virginia Fahr and Ruth Bassin, took their Wood Gathererls rank. We have several more who expect to take that rank in May. We are looking forward to two weeks at the Camp Fire Camp Tonadona this summer. It was to earn money for this outing that we 'rrhhave been taking care of the teachers trays Q in the lunch room all this year. A m Miss Yike is adviser to this group of girls.

GIRL SCOUTS-TROOP No. 4 The Girl Scout movement is concerned chiefly with prepar- ing girls for effective and happy citizenship, and participation in the life of their country through the right use of their leisure time. The activities center about the three main interests of health, home, and citizenship. Their aim is to serve Wherever they may be. There are, at present, fifty-one Girl Scouts in Troop 4; and, under the leadership of Mrs. Brett Moran, the captain, many of the scouts have passed successfully their second Class Test; and have received thirty-six merit badges this year. Every year 3 Parents and Teachers' HGet-together meet- ing is held. The entire entertainment is handled by the scouts. This year two mothers have volunteered to assist the eaptain in teaching the scouts many useful things, among Wthh are darning, knitting, and crocheting. When the weather permits they take long hikes to study nature and scoutcraft. .a ,---,..,- 4- ' Public Library Manon liC N 351 201 if, if 1 First row, left to righte-Alice Ginsberg, Dorothy Elms, Sarah Shapiro Anna Fisher, Mildred Friedman, Esther Rivers, Margaret Sandell, Etlhe Bernstein, Dorothy Ryeman, Grace Mandeen.

GIRL RESERVES The object of the Girl Reserve Movement, in direct accordance with the purpose of the Young Women's Christian Association, is to make a contribution to those elements in the life of a girl which set free the ideals and convictions that help a girl to live as a girl of her age should live, and aid her to put these ideals into practice in her community and her standards of living. It endeavors to help a girl grow through normal natural activities into those habits, inrights and ideals which will make her a responsible, eager woman, capable and ready to develop and share in grouping expressions which are making effec- tive the purpose of God in the world. Her slogan is uTo face life squarely. The following is her pledge: uI Will do my best to honor God, my country, and my commu- nity; to help other girls; and to be 1n all ways a loyal, true umuc pluk member of the Girl Reserves.

GIRL RESERVES It is the aim of The Girl Reserves to be dependable. loyal, courteous, friendly, and sincere. With the help of Miss Emmett, they are studying iiways to grow and are sure to discover that no girl lives alone, but in a world which needs and can use the finest she can give. The meetings for this year have embraced topics under Health, Knowledge, Spirit, and Service. Miss Crosby, the school librarian, gave them a helpful talk upon iiBooks. The girls sponsored a Marionette Show, given by Miss Virginia Upton, and plan to give a play, Six Who Pass While the Lentils Boil. At the City Wide Ceremony given in April, four of the girls, Sylvia Herscovitz, Tibbian Friedson, Bernice Hersch, and Lillian Gordon received silver emblem pins. Several others are striving for the same honor. All girls who merit the Girl Reserve badge and wear it with dignity, do their best to help their community and their country and to honor God. WM: pan 1 SweetEMemwries Like the beauty of an old time rose, Whose misty fragrance still recalls The colored joys of by-gone times, The thought of Lincoln school days falls Like sweet perfume, upon the room Called memory. And spreads its scent to hours spent In merriment And revelry. And oftentimes in hours of work, One stream of thought toward Lincoln fiows. And from Time's page a fragrant scent Is wafted from our rainbow rose Of memory. aEVA HINITZ, an Alumnus. Signs Of Spring I heard a robin sing this morn, Thatis Why I know that spring is here; His sweet clear notes woke me at dawn, iiWhat cheer, What cheer! That's how I know that spring is here. Around the hill the brook glides on, That's how I know that spring is here: It sings an endless happy song, iiWhat cheer, what cheer! Thatis how I know that spring is here. Among the leaves the crocus grows: That's Why I know that spring is here: It lifts its head from wintry sndws, HWhat cheer, What cheer! Now we all know that spring is here. -KENNETH PETERSON, 8A. , x z? 1. x, H Liftnnm s... R . q 'x THOMAS J EFFERSON tPrize EssayeCityl The American Government of today owes much to certain men of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The greatest documents we have were- written by men of that time. George Washington perhaps was the most famous, but following close behind him is one whom all school children connect with the Declaration of Independence. Thomas Jefferson, the author of this remarkable document, was a line scholar and could read and speak several languages. He was not gifted as a great orator, but with his pen, he rendered great services for the cause of liberty. He was the third president of the United States and during his terms in oHice, he helped to increase growth and commerce and to spread popular education. During the Virginia Convention, Jefferson became famous throughout the colonies. This resulted in his appointment as a delegate to the Continental Congress on the tenth of June, 1776, where he was made chairman of a commit- tee to draft a Declaration of Independence. As chairman, Jefferson wrote this document. With the exception of one or two phrases, the Declaration is entirely his own words. The f1rst law passed by the House of Burgesses of Virginia set down very detailed laws of religion by which the people had to abide. When Thomas Jefferson was appointed with two other men, to revise the code of Virginia, he took from the statute-book all laws relating to worship and religion and put in their place a single paragraph which he considered as important as the Declaration of Independence. For nine years, from 1777 to 1786, Jefferson, and other men believing the same as he, fought the clergy of Virginia to secure this simple solution of the religious problem. The greatest triumph of Jefferson's career came through his connection with the treaty for the annexation of the Louisiana Territory to the United States. It was perhaps the greatest benelit he ever bestowed upon his country and it contributed more to his honor than any other incident or public act with which he was connected. At the same time it was the lirst instance in which a president of the United States ever used his personal and political influence to crowd through congress an act which he himself declared unconstitutional. There is no doubt that during Jeffersonls time he was considered no greater than some of our Congressmen are today. He might not have been praised then, but he lived to see his country helped through his own efforts. He died July 4, 1826, just lifty years after the Declaration of Independence. VIRGINIA FAHR. THE GOOD SHIP, LINCOLN In March, 1923, Lincoln, our good ship, began its first voyage. Strange and unfamiliar hands grasped the wheel. An unfamiliar crew manned the boat. Nevertheless, Mr. Lewis, our pilot, and the faculty, our crew, kept faith in their belief, that the ship, Lincoln, would come through. For four months that first year, the ship sailed with little visible success. The next year, the same crew, with a few exceptions, took control, and the same hands held the wheel. Chugging and plowing its way, the good ship continued its search for hidden gems and treasures by means of our special activities. Slowly Success appeared on Lincolnis horizon. Visibly encouraged and considerably heartened, the ship plunged its way into deeper and more productive waters. Our pilot had often said: T'If we want ships to come in we must send ships out. So the next year saw the flagship, Lincoln, and its fieet of sister ships. Special Activities, hoist anchor and slowly disappear over the beckoning horizon of Success. New channels in the search of knowledge and development opened, and Lincoln saw opportunities in these. Bit by bit, crew and passengers increased. Richer and better cargoes were brought home. Yes, the good ship, Lincoln, may well be proud of its achievements, the standard of its education, and its many opportunities offered to the boys and girls. ROBERT PARKANS. A VISION It is my. first appearanceemy debut into the theatrical world. Am I a success or a failure? I hear my cue. My heart pounds violently. Yet, as I advance on the stage, my fears vanish in the calm glow of the footlights. From that vast immobile audience I glean nothing. I can only wait till the curtain shall determine. At last the curtain falls. A roar of thunderous applause goes up that echoes, and resounds, and lives. Flowers are heaped into my arms, roses, a mound of them. The curtain calls at last cease. Back in the quiet of my dressing room, with the trophies of my victory heaped around me, I think of my first attempt at acting, how we combined work and play into joyous school days, the patience of the coach, and the faces of my classmates gleaming in the glow of the footlights. As I think of those times associated with the 01d Dramatic Club, a feeling. sweeter than all the roses that surround me, steals into my heart for Lincoln. KATHERINE HENEY. GRATITUDE Dear Celia: Yes, I have joined the Glee Club, and Mrs. Mosley, our music instructor. had me try out for the Operetta, Nearly 3 Honeymoon, given in April. Celia. what do you suppose? I was given a leading part. Oh, I was so excited! While practicing one day, Mr. Lewis, our principal, walked in. He told Mrs. .Mosley he heard me singing and wanted to know where she got chat. She replied: iiI found her strolling along in the halls. This was the first time that anybody had said anything about my voice. But, Celia, I owe you thanks for giving me the inspiring thought of getting into the Glee Club. Affectionately, HANNAH WEINBERG. ,. WWW mm a V W0, nTHLETIEE LINEN?

B. A. A. The boys of Lincoln met as usual early in the fall and elected their B. A. A. ochers. Abe Rosenbaum was elected president; Llewellyn Martin, vice presi- dent, and Harry Siegler, secretary. After the season got under way the three ochers and their adviser, Mr. Fisher, arranged the B. A. A. athletic calendar. The following events were chosen to be run off in this order: golf, basketball, skiing, swimming, tennis, diamond ball, and track events. In every sport the referees and umpires were B. A. A. members who desired this experience in offlciating. Those who secured the privilege of doing so were Abe Hillman and Abe Rosenbaum, who were the two most outstanding ochials of the year. The others were Harry Siegler, Jake Kaplan, Harold Sabesewitz, Sam Chutter, and Milton Hoffman. Much credit is due these boys and the oihcers of the B. A. A. for their tireless efforts to make this season of sports one of the most successful and outstanding ones in the history of Lincoln Junior High LINCOLN SKI TOURNAMENT Lincoln' s second annual Ski tournament was held on January 22,1927 The day was favorable for some long jumps. Twenty boys were entered in the contest. Each was anxious to break the record of the hill. Paul Haight and Owen Berg were the judges. The orde1 of events was as follows: trial jump, regular jump, and the long standing jump. Cecil Pence with 18. 45 points, captured first place and also won the long standing Jump of sev-enty two feet. Archie Berg with 15 79 points came second. A twin jump was made by Cecil Pence and Owen Berg at the close of the tournament. First row, left to righteShapiro, Gershbaum, Grouse, Falk, VValensky. Second row, left to righteSpewak, Weiss, Berine, McGillveray, Fincgold, Ziff. BASKETBALL The round robin basketball tourney was run off successfully with lots of pep and vigor. The teams were entered according to home rooms as well as according to size. The boys participating in Class A were required to be 5 feet 2 inches or over, and those in Class B, under 5 feet 2 inches. Twenty- seven teams took part in these contests, seventeen of whom were in B, class and ten. of Whom were in A class. Most games were hotly contested and even up to the middle of the tournament it was hard to pick the champions. The conflict between 208 and 124 A teams was the hardest fought game that Lincoln has ever witnessed. The championship being won by 124 with a score of 10-7. Room 208 was proud of its hard fighting team even in defeat. The deciding confiict of the B class was not nearly so hard fought and Room 311 won, but unfortunately lost on a protest by their opponents of 209, who claimed that Jake Swerdlick, ATYonkelf, was not a regular player and when they again played 209 won an easy Victory by the score of 9-2. 111 luck seems to have followed the team members of 311. They have secured a place in the hnals each year since they were 7B's only to be nosed out in the last game. GOLF Lincoln's golf tournament was run off September 25, 1927. Among the outstanding players were: Ernest Anderson, Harvard Gross, Robert Brademan, Lex Hollenbeck, Teddy Ericson, and Stanley Larson. The best played match was between Hollenbeck and Larson, the latter winning. Larson was 3 up at the end of the Iirst nine and continued his good playing and won 6 up and 4 to go. Larson then played Gross and won 2 up. This leaves our school midget, Stanley Larson, our golf champion. He was rewarded with a silver cup and a letter. ,r-t ,vv- .1 LEE Fi1st row, left to righteLillian IKagan, Anna Fisher, Ida Soho, Helen Olson, Lucille Horn, Laila Purancn, aroline Urzos, Iren ne Pao Second row, left to right-Rosc Iiischer, Celia Tolchinm, Rose K01111,Pcarl Kvasnick, Lillian Gordon, Ma ae Locketz, Eva Nadler, Dorothy Reiman lhird row, left to right-Marion Haar, Gwendolyn Ott, Marcia Noodleman, Beatrice Cohen, President; H 1611 Runbcck, Mae Abrams, Treas surer; Jean Ryberg Fourth row, left to right-Edith Sorki11,Sophia Bellman, gMollic Schwa1t7, Miss Dohc1ty, Gale Dunbar, Sylvia Abrams, Mildred Davies, Ida Brown, Secretary. G. A. A. The purpose of this association is to foster among the girls of Lincoln interest and participation in athletics, to increase physical eHiciency, and to develop a higher degree of sportsmanship and school and class spirit. The plan of the organization is the home room system. Each room elects a captain who represents them in all G. A. A. activities. It is the duty of the captain to arouse interest in her home room, advertise the games which her team plays, inspire her team and encourage them to clean playing and good sportsmanship. VOLLEY BALL--The sport taken up in the fall was volley ball. Practice games were held and later 1n the winter an Elimination Tournament was run off The winners in the 8th grade were the 8B4 5, Margaret Hoffman, Captain; Bessie Star, Esther Alch, Sylvia Meshbesher, Bessie Rabinowitz, and Celia Pinsky. The 9Bis, victors of their grade, conquered the 8B4's and so were 1927 school champions. The girls playing on this team were Beatrice Cohen, Captain; Etta Bellman. Pearl Arthur, Lena Epstein, Jeanette Farsht, Evelyn Moilanen, and Rivia Rosenberg. PUNCH BALLaAt the beginning of the second semester Miss Doherty took up punch ball, a new game to Lincoln girls as a G A A activity. SWIMMING---One night a week 1s given over to G. A A. swimming Special work 1n diving and instruction in the more advanced swimming strokes is the principal aim of this activity.
