Since then he has devoted his time to public education having been superintendent of the Independence, Mentor and Burton township schools. In 1913 Mr. Smith came to Lodi as Superintendent and in his four years here has placed Lodi High in the rank of schools of the first order. ; This experience together with special work in Columbia University has made our Superintendent an able administrator. Besides four hundred pupils under his supervision, Mr. Smith also is instructor in science which was his special field in College. His interest in civic activities make him a constructive factor in the community and both the school and the town will not soon forget the value of his labors. Izola Leonata Fries graduated from Ohio State University in the year 1913. She was then Principal in Briggsdale, [a suberb of Columbus]. In 1914 Miss Fries came to Lodi to teach art in our school and has been here until the present time. Being very versatile and having a very broad educa- tion, she has also taught many other subjects in the High School among which are Science, German and English. She has been coach of the Girls‘ basket ball for four years and it is to her we owe our gratitude for organizing - our first Girls Basket Ball team. Miss Fries has a keen sense of the drama- tic and is well known in this town as an excellent reader. The Senior English Class will probably remember her as a very fine lecturer especially at times when they failed to have their lessons. When the pupils have troubles they usually take them to Miss Fries who is always a sympathizer. She will always be highly esteemed in Lodi High. Mr. Orie Benjamin Gerig graduated from Goshen College, Goshen, Indiana in the year 1917. He came to Lodi in September of that year to accept the position of principal. As an instructor of Freshman Algebra, History and Science he has sueceeded in arousing a remarkable interest and wholesome rivalry in his calss work. His chapel talks were a source of inspiration, and incentive for better work, besides, he did much to stimulate school and class spirit. In addition to his regular pedagogical duties, he was coach of the boys’ basket ball and base ball teams. In this capacity we shall always remember him as an ardent champion of the rights of Lodi le ht Page6é IB WICOP ECHOES = 18 PERRY: SVE DAD Though learned, well bred; and though well bred, sincere Modestly bold and humanly severe, IZOLA FRIES “TKE® Blessed with each talent and each art to please; And borne to write, converse and live at ease.

Clements graduated from Oberlin College in 1916 having taken her major in classical arts. The following September she came to Lodi High as instructor of Latin and English and has succeeded in develop- ing a deep interest in these subjects among her pupils. Beside hee work in the classroom Miss Clements also has charge of the library, acts as critic of literary productions and is special advisor of several of the classes. With her violin, she is an artist and no one who has heard her has failed to be more than delighted with her touch and expression. We must also mention her special interest in one of our army camps. We hear she writes letters on khaki stationery and we know she receives them with the insignia of the red triangle. Mr. J. C. Moyer a much esteemed man and one of the most skillful carpenters of the community was chosen to teach Manual Training in the High school this year. Two days a week he givesthe class valued instruc- tion in woodcraft and general constructive work. All doubts as to results of his work are immediately put to flight by a sight of the class at work and the productions they boast. Though this is a new department, Mr. Moyer has made it an essential in our course and we look to see it developed as we know he can develop it. In the year 1917, Eletha May Steepe graduated in music from Ohio Wesleyan college. The following September she came to Lodi to teach music in our school. Miss Steepe has taught two years previous to this. She also teaches History and German. She has made music especially in- teresting this year and with her winning ways has secured the best of re- sults from the pupils. Many times she adds to our literary programs by using her talent to advantageous ends. We will always remember her as the teacher with a smile for everyone.

He attended school at District No. 4 until his parents moved to their present country side home west of Lodi. Not caring for town school, Fred attended the school near his home in District No. 6. However, he passed the Patterson Examination in 1914 and then entered Lodi Hi. As President of the class of ’18, Fred has proven himself an able leader always ready to promote the best interests of the class even tho he is also interested in some phases of the Junior class. EMMA KOBB Emma Westfall Kobb, the honor student of ’18, the youngest member of this class, was born at Cedar Valley May 19, 1901. While very young she was moved to Garden Isle and there started to school at the age cf six. Here she progressed rapidly and later on attended school at Leroy. She passed successfully the Patterson examination at the early age of 13. Emma is always studious, minds her own affairs and lets one days work come as it will and never faces the future with a frown. Her motto is ‘‘can what you get and get what you can’’. She is honest and truthful and will always remain loyal to Lodi Hi. | : GERTRUDE KEMERY Gertrude Fllen Kemery was bern at Pawnee in October in the year of 1900 and shortly afterward came to Lodi to live. She has always attended Lodi.Schools and is a member of our famous “‘sextette’’. Gertrude is talented in many respects; She is an essayist of ability and specialives along musical lines being assistant pianist during this the reign of the good old rose and silver. She plays basket ball but never disputes with the referree. BERNICE F, FRY Bernice Fuhrman Fry, was born near West Salem, Ohio, Dec. 12, 1900. Bernice soon moved to our village and has remained here during her entire life of study thus far. Bernice is a member of the sextette of girls, who started in the first grade together, these girls having walked hand in hand thru the halls of learning all thru the succeeding years. She has studied both art and music. She excels in her work in the class room, never failing to distinguish herself when called upon to solve a knotty problem which has baffled the rest of the class. Tho rather quiet and thotful, she remains a loyal member of the class of 718.

Her early school life we know little of, but in 1906 she joined our class. Thus Marie has plodded on through the years, hand in hand with the other people, upholding the Rose and Silver. Marie is a diligent pupil, seldom disobeying the rules of the school. She plays both Base ball and basket ball, having played a fair and square game as forward on the basket ball team all this season. She also is a reader of ability, this year repre- senting our school at the Declametory Contest among Medina County schools. We shall always remember ‘‘Red’’ for her clever remarks which are true proof of a witty mind. SEYMOUR FALCONER Seymour Falconer was born in Lorain, Ohio, April 18, 1900, but did not attend school until seven vears of age. He lived in Lorain but a short time and from there went to Wellington. For four years he was a pupil in the Wellington schools and from there till he had finished the grades, Sey- mour lived in Cleveland. He has attended the Lodi Hi for four years and has been excused from nearly all of the examinations. Seymour is president of the Athletic Association and business manager of ‘Hilltop Echoes’’. And in all his undertakings we have found we can rely on “‘Steve”. He is an experimenter in electricity and spends much of his time solving such problems as this division of Physics envolves. GLEENA DAGUE Gleena Irene Dague, has always lived on the good old farm north of this village; that is, since December 17th in the year 1900. There is noth- ing unusual connected with Gleena, who has gone thru school with the class tho she started to school at the early age of five. Gleena carried off second honor in the Freshman class, and has in most cases escaped from the final test. She has studied music altho she realized her talent was not in that direction. She finds herself most interested in mathematics of all kinds and is sure to star in this throughout her life. She is very enthusiastic and has a smile for all her classmates. Gleena is very active in athletics being a member of both basket and base ball and is especially clever in the use of her elbows while playing center in basket ball, she is a member of the girls sextette and is a debater of ability. BLANCHE BERNARD Blanche Bernard is another who has spent her short life in the same locality. She was born on the farm at Crawford’s Corners Oct. 22, 1898. Living a long distance from school she delayed going until she was eight — years of age then attending a country school. Blanche passed the Patterson examination and soon joined our jolly class. She has proven kind hearted and truthful at all times. Though not engaging in many outside activ'ties. Blanche has not failed to be an enthusiastic supporter of Lodi High in all ways.

She is a member of the girls ‘“‘Sextette’’, who started to school in the year 1906 and have journeyed thus far together. As left forward onthe basket ball team Gladys has not failed to star in nearly all the games played, frequently piling up a score large enough to win the game herself. “Happy” has been a real inspiration to her classmates and teammates for she knows the art of smiling at the right time. BONNIE WHITE Bonnie Jeane White was born in the wintry month of January on the 15th day in the year of 1901. When two years of age she came into our midst, residing as at present. She started to school in Sept. 1906 going thru school in a very ordinary manner. As studies were never difficult for Bonnie, she always progressed with little concentration. Bonnie was second honor pupil in the eighth grade and never took examinations before entering High School. She plays both base ball and basket ball and, as side center in the latter, has played a real game all season. KENNETH JOHN GARBERICH Kenneth John Garberich was born on a farm near the little village called “Risley’’, state and date unknown. He attended a district school near his home until his parents moved to the farm where they still live on the Chatham road. Kenneth then came to the Lodi schools and joined our class in the fifth grade. He came the next year and with the class went to school in the old town hall. But when the class went on to the seventh grade Kenneth attended the district school near his home. He came back to us the next year and has remained with un ever since. Kenneth is a debater, associate editor of the Annual, manager of baseball team and time keeper of basket ball. The class would be lost in this wide world were it not for his sunny smile. a BLANCHE LU-REA FEAZEL Blanche LuRea Feazel was born on River street June 20, 1899. She first climbed to the House on the Hill in the fall of the year of 1905. She came regularly, but being one of the class of 717. We know little of her school life up to the eighth grade, when she decided that ’18 was much easier to write than ’17 and waited for us. Therefore the next year when we, as Freshies clamored for admittance to the Hall of Higher Knowledge “Blanche” was with us. Blanche has taken every day as it came and never worried for the morrow, She plays basket ball occasionally but excells in Automobile riding.

Although she has always attended Lodi Publie schools; we know little of her school life up to the time of her entrance into High School when, like Blanche she decided the class of 718 was her choice and then waited for us. Her greatest interests rest in ath- letics and music. She has always been a star player on the basket ball team, and a heavy batter on the base ball team. In musical lines Mary displays great talent in playing both the piano and trombone. ARLEEN SMALLY FETZER Arleen Smalley Fetzer is still living in the house on Medina street where she was born the 18th day of October 1900. She had lived an ordinary life, went to school when she became five years of age and soon started to study music. When she entered High Schocl she immediately became interested in athletics and made the Basket Ball team when a Freshman. She still holds her position as forward in basket ball and plays as catcher on the baseball team. Though she is interested in many things, Arleen has not given up her music and expects to finish the teachers course soon. HULDA ELLEN KIME Another member of our class was born in Wayne County near West Salem, Ohio, on the seventh day of June 1900. We know little of her school life before she entered Lodi High School since before this she went. to a school near her home. We, her classmates have always looked toward her as a true and diligent student. Hulda is talented in many ways; she plays the piano and “moves the bow” with ease. She has great faith in those of her sex, as has already been shown by her intelligent discussions in the Civics Class room. Hulda stands for truth and loyalty, always up- holding the best interests of the class. CARL JACKSON Another honorable member of our class was born at Strongsville Feb. 11, 1898. He came to Lodi in time to start hisschoollife with us. Carl has been a very diligent and thoughtful student thus gaining knowledge from every scource. He carried first honors thru the grades, also in the Sophomore and Freshman years. He was Class president for three con- secutive years and we are exceedingly proud to say he is Editor-in-chief of “Hilltop Echoes.’ Owing to his manifold duties in other lines of work, Carl could not play regularly his position of center on the Basket Ball Team, but as treasurer of the Athletic Association kept us from going “into the hole.” Page 20 ; hig ye OP a Et Cc) MARY BENNADER ““May-be”’ Unlearned she knows no schoolman’s subtle art No language, but the language of the heart.

Coat a IMS WILYCOP ECHOES 1993 The Sentor’s History We, the Seniors of the Lodi High School, who have been working for recommends, have a checkered history. We are a great class even the Juniors will admit it. In nineteen hundred and thirteen we entered upon a year which will never be forgotten.. We were the largest Freshman class in the history of the school and we knewit. It took the faculty just one year to discover how reliable and influential we were. Our class elections have been models of harmony and free from discord. But this is easily explained. The girls out numbered the boys, and girls, dear reader never quarrel. ‘Their one rule is to vote solid against anything suggested by the boys. In the process of elimination through which we have passed, many of our number have fallen. Only the fittest survive. To be sure, we have been brought this year to look more than ever before on the serious side of life. Bereavements are bound to come, even in ones High School experience, and this year we have been sadly stricken by the loss of our former classmate tay House. As we approach the end of our High School days, we look back longingly to the bright days that are gone, the class parties, the receptions and the sleigh rides, which are now things of the past. Such is our history. We have been a distinguished class all through our course. But we have elected our last snaps and soon we will be ‘fooling down the aisles of time.’’ But as we leave the scenes of our many joys and sorrows, we will take with us that love and admiration for the High School days, which, growing and deepening through the years, will keep us ever members of one body.—Kenneth Garberich. Page 22 WICOP ECMOES Sentor Class Poem School, from you today our paths are turning. Life has blossomed in thy “Halls of Learning,” To us thy gracious task has been fulfilled, To thy benignant teaching minds have thrilled, Expanding with a larger consciousness. Of life—thy gates now open at the press Of those, whose dreams awakening in the soul, Compel them onward to a longed—for goal Which mirage like, still hears us to forsake, These ties of dear delight we dread to break. ’Tis thee we bless as now we quit thy walls And onward march to wider life which calls, With voice insistent—‘‘Come to Me, Oh Youth With starry eyes, and heart aflame for truth Come, for I promise all thy dreams shall live And to thee richest treasures will I give.” Dear Friend, dost hear the voice we must obey F’en tho’ our loving hearts—they fain would stay With in thy shelter; yet we needs must go, To bear the burdens—work—and live—and know, But in that hfe thy councils shall remain, And joyous memories shall lighten pain. We leave thee sadly—yet with tho’ts aglow We scarce know why—to join the rivers flow, To Life’s vast ocean with its surge sublime, To grasp and hold our heritage of Time; Some shall wax strong in joy of tasks well done. Thrice happy schoolmates! Prizes nobly won, Some on the Path of Sorrow set their feet, And taste the bitter waters of defeat. The portals open—now the partings near, Wild Turmoil of the World, we dimly hear, We know we’re but thy children yet untried Nursed to that great panoply of Pride. Tho’ hearts are brave—our eyes with tears are full We breath a tender whisper—Farewell School. 8 —Seymour Falconer. Page 28 M3 VAILITCOP ECHOES = 198 Senior Class CaAill Knowing that this is our last year in Lodi High, we the Senior Class after a long secret session, decided that it would only be fitting and proper that as we are to leave our places in the school to others next year, that we should leave each Junior, especially, and to others some memento of re- gard and affection that might prove helpful to them and inspire them in the future. And knowing that all persons of lawful age and of sound memory, freely excercising their own will and pleasure may dispose of their property by will; so we, the Senior Class of 1918, of Lodi High School, village of Lodi, county of Medina, state of Ohio, do make, publish and declaie, this instrument to be our last will and testament, and we do hereby and hereon give, devise and bequeath our effects as follows, to wit: ITEM I To the teachers who have aso faithfully and patiently worked to give us the best of instruction, we give our most heartfelt thanks and the privilege of teaching future classes which will without a doubt be much less brilliant and industrious than is the class of 718. We also will them our collection of demerit cards so that they will have a plenty to run the system next year. ITEM II We next bequeath to the small green Freshies time and time alone which is an important factor in their success in life and the acquirement of a good education, which some times looks doubtful. ITEM III We next give to the Sophomores our great original ideas, and especially, how to study. Thinking more of this class who have helped. us in a few of our battles, we wish to give them our “‘stand in’’ with the teachers and beg of the teachers to give all the attention to the Juniors next year, that they have given to the Senior Class of ’18. ITEM IV. We next bequeath to the Junior Class our seats in the Recitation room which have supported our bodies for the past year and we hope that they will not fail to appreciate the lovely collection of gum which will be found under the desks and the beautiful scenery which can be seen from this room. ITEM V Carl Franklin Jackson wants to leave-his interest and love for the teachers as a whole to Jay Shulenberger as he thinks he is probably the only one of the Junior boys deserving of this. ITEM VI Fred Wilbur Neisz next gives with much grief and mourning his nearest and dearest friend Corrine Fullerton to Frank Brogan and begs that we mention that he should treat her as best he knows how. ITEM VII . Arleen Smalley Fetzer wills to Irene House her interest in Basket Ball, also her position, and hopes she will make as good use of them next year as she did this year. Page 24 hss = =WILYCOP ECHOES =H ITEM VIII Gladys Marie Warner leaves Donald Fetzger with great regret to Mil- dred Keener. She hates to do it but must surrender to the inevitable and perhaps she will find some one to take his place in Akron. ITEM Ix Gertrude Ellen Kemery says she supposes she will leave Tom Sanford for Ruth Shempp, although she says this with great misery. ITEM X Kenneth John Garberich, being very generous, says that he will leave Mable Barbour to Jay Shulenberger as he is going to Milwaukee. ITEM XI Mary Jane Bennader wills her old black and white coat to Mildred Keener. This will save Mid from buying it and will make her a good fashionable spring wrap. ITEM XII EKmma Westfall Kobb bequeaths with pleasure her studious ways and power of concentration to George Gould and hopes he will wake up and take advantage of them in the future. ITEM XIII Seymour D. Falconer wishes to will his business abilities to Arthur Seiver so that he might see that everything is conducted to the best of advantage next year. ITEM XIV Blanche LuRea Feazel bequeaths her sweet disposition and High School popularity to Mable Barbour as Miss Feazel will have no use for them in the future. ITEM XV Bonnie Jeane White leaves her office seances with Messers. Gerig and Smith to anyone wishing and deserving the same. ITEM XVI One Ford truck, guaranteed not to rip, rust or turn up at tin heel is hereby willed and bequeathed to Donald Fetzer.[The undersigned]. Bernice Fuhrman Fry. ITEM XVII Gleena Irene Dague leaves to Lawrence Williams, her ability in de- bating, music and literary work and wishes that Lawrence may give some good selections at literary next year. ITEM XVIII Marie Viola Marble hereby and hereon gives her auburn hair and freckles to Katholene Betz: as she wishes to leave some memory of herself in the school. ITEM XIX Lastly, Blanche Alberta Barnard wishes to give to Helena Hipp her ability in all things along the artistic line. Mournfully, regretfully and sadly signed and sealed, published and declared as the last will and testament of the class of 1918 before justice of the peace, C. E.

Page 29 ion, MHS = WILICOP ECHOES 81918 @Obserbation of the School-room Clock In my constant position on the west side uf the Freshmen room, and in all school hours I see many incidents which perhaps if a teacher would see one might receive a demerit. I remember in my past, that I heard many pupils, by groups together, talking something about little red cards or demerits. I could not reconcile my thoughts at first to what it was all about, but I soon saw in my constant observation, that a teacher gave them out for some purpose. I tho’t at first that it might be a present for being good. Later I changed my mind and found out that the real purpose was for “talking” and now for “chewing gum.’ Ever since this time I always see a young woman, a teacher I sup- pose, [always] having them ready and carries the “little precious” around with her. Every morning about eight o’clock I hear a man unlock the door to my room. Soon the young woman comes again with her red cards. Then several of the Freshmen boys come in for the purpose may be of getting out of a quarrel or who perhaps have unjustly punished some little one outside. One morning I did not see the woman come in. I was positive that some- thing had happened. I was so worried I could hardly tick any more, any- way I knew that I could not make so much noise as I usually do. I waited a half day and then she came back again rather pale, but with a smile which I was exceedingly glad to see. Each school morning, I hear the school bell ring. Then everyone be- comes quiet. I wish I could converse with my neighboring clock across the hall, to see if the pupils are so good in his room. The Junior class is very good, especially when the teacher goes out of the room, but maybe the Freshies will also know how to behave when they have reached their third year in high school. After the bell has ceased ringing I see the pupils studying their Eng- lish and German industriously. When I reach my ninth hour every day, this same woman with those red cards conducts a class in my cell. This class sounds very much like an English recitation, but I still doubt it some- times yet, by the expression on the teachers face. Maybe I will find out more exactly when this term is past;—I hope so at least. I often hear many interesting compositions, especially those on the book called “Treasure Island,” I now know the whole story of it. At nine-forty I hear a sharp bell ring and different pupils come into the room, altho many of them are familiar to me, as most of them are the Juniors Page 30 0 ee eS a 19W3 VWILCOP ECHOES = 13 A small man, with dark hair and eyeglasses, looks rather quick and sharp, stands at the desk and conducts the history recitation. Sometimes he does most of the reciting himself, but occasionally he asks questions to a few of his pupils. When most of them do not answer, I hear a lecture or criticism given by the teacher. This sometimes is constructive, sometimes destruc- tive; you may choose as you wish, but I think it is usually constructive, as these are shorter than the destructive ones. Many times I notice that this little man is interrupted by some one who does not pay strict attention to the recitation, and now he gives another lecture, and this one is not on the history lesson either. At ten-fifteen I see this class depart and am glad to see them go too be- cause I do not need to listen so attentively to the mumbling of some of the voices. Now two girls come into the room with a large book in hand, and read something I cannot understand, but they call it a Latin class, the translation of Virgil. The woman with the red cards teaches this class. I enjoy listening to this very much because it is so interesting, as I have never heard it before. At the eleventh hour I again hear the little Freshies come into the room with a noise so harsh and violent, especially the soft ‘lamb,’ that I cannot hear myself tick. The little man teaches this class, called Algebra, sometimes a base ball game. The pupils do not have good lessons, as I heard him say this morning that there was only one pupil who had perfect recitations for the last ten days. I hear much shouting going on at the end of this period, when the teacher puts the score on the board. I think the girl with the red hair makes the most noise. Now I hear a bell ring, then most of the pupils go home to dinner. At noontime I hear many conversations by some of the Seniors, about com- mencement, debate, play, or basket ball games. These are more interesting than any of the others. The afternoon is very uninteresting, especially the Algebra II and Civics recitations; as the pupils are so smart and know their lesson so well that they do not need to direct their attention to the teacher. The last period in the afternoon, the Freshmen recite Science, which is as interesting as some of the other things. But there is a great excitement when the little man gives out his little red cards, which he carries around in his pocket. I now hear a confusion in the room, perhaps the one is rejoicing who received the precious gift. The bell again rings and I see all the pupils and teachers depart from me. As night draws near I often wish that the next day would soon arrive and I could again see the faces of the happy pupils and teachers swarming out and in my doors and particularly hear the conversations, lectures and recitations. By “A Junior.” Page 31 PHS WIWYCOP ECMOES 18 “His Sun Has Set CAdile Det Map” We, the members of Lodi High school, are saddened by the loss of our schoolmate and friend, Ray Cecil House, whom our Heavenly Father has summoned to join him in his Heavenly mansion of rest. It is with sad hearts, we look back upon the days he spent in the school-room with us, and tho we miss him sadly, yet our work is moving forward, slowly toward its goal. During the past two years, Ray’s health had been gradually failing. At times he was unable to attend school, altho’ coming when his physical condition would permit. However, up to the time of his failing health, he was an active member in all athletic sports and social activities; playing on both our baseball and basket ball teams. In both, he distinguished himself as a splendid player. When however, he was unable to participate in these sports, he acted efficiently as both manager and treasurer of the boy’s basket ball team. Ray was of quiet disposition, very forgiving, offending no one and entered into all of our school activities with vivacious spirit. He was a great joy to his parents, never complaining, but patiently waiting the return of health and strength. Quietly, as the sun was shining forth its radience on this fighting world January 19, 1918 at the age of eighteen, Ray was called from our midst to live with our father in his celestial king- dom where sickness is no more. What we have Lost is our Mas- ter’s Gain, and in that we also realize it is our schoolmates Gain, for now, as we are in the grasp of this great world war, Ray is peacefully sleeping ‘‘Under the Shadow of His Wing.” In these moments of grief and heartaches, we, the members of L. H. 8. and faculty extend our heartfelt sympathy to his grief stricken parents, brothers and sister Irene who is an active mem- ber of the Junior class. “Gone but not Forgotten.” Page 82 193 WILICOP ECHOES 5 Page 33 Shed Page 34 YWOLCOP ECHOLS Sophomore Organtsation Helen.

And, why shouldn’t we have these opinions? The Sophomores look down upon us as being slow creatures but they really forget how slow they were last year and that they are much slower this year. Just because they are in a hig her class and think they know more than we, they look down upon us. Naturally, a little of their greenness has worn off since they reached the Sophomore ‘‘stage’”’ but in general they are as fresh as they were when they entered the High School. Having reached this “stage’’ in school they be- lieve they can bluff most every one they see but they are only fooling them- selves. [Of course you all know their motto is ‘Bluff’’!. And they surely think they can do it. During the Sophemore year in school they try to receive the honors, and, think they can drift the rest of the way; but by experience they soon change their minds especially when they become Juniors. And after all what is a Sophomore? Why, it is nothing but a creature that scratches its head with one hand and thinks with the other. The Sophomores are supposed to set the examples for the Freshmen, but instead we do it for them. They should teach us not to be afraid in the dark when we pass a grave yard and not to talk in the halls. Evidently, the Sophomores are the mcst talkative craetures ever seen. This all comes from the immense lack cf knowledge, and will power. On account of this, it is said that the Sophomores brains can easily be put into one little mustard seed. I hope the present existing things will be changed, if not, I will always want to be a “‘Freshie.”’ Page 86 Page 37 ih HILICOP FECHOED = Uae Che School Spirit of L. BH. S. I, the school spirit of L. H. 8., may probably be considered as an im- material spectre who is a constant visitor of all secret societies, class rooms, recitations and last but not least in your silent halls of fa me, where I am especially interested and talked about. Sometimes it makes my heart exceptionally sad to hear the destructive criticism concerning the school. I recall especially the morning, that the rather short, slim man, wearing glasses, whom | afterwards, learned to be your superintendant, anounced in chapel that matters could no longer drift as they had for the past few months, and that a demerit system was about to be established. During the following two weeks I seemed to be especially starved for want of food, by this I mean, that I, “The School Spirit,” was nearly absent from the hearts and minds of my citizens. But after a consultation with the Im- mortal Gods, I decided somehow to thrill the minds of your principal with whom I am very familiar and also very well pleased, as I believe he is the possessor of my line of work. . There soon followed an address at chapel on “School Spirit”? which I think you will readily recall, in which he remarked, ‘Let us show the sur- rounding towns and people as well, what we are doing up here on the hill.”’ I was an anxious listener and it made my heart glad, for I believe that it aroused an uplifting sensation in each and every one of you. Here the tide appeared to turn for I became a welcome guest to my citizens. I am also a constant visitor of your Basket Ball games, but until recently I was not present in my full glory. I feel safe in saying that your school would probably have been victorious in more outside games, if you had made better use of me. You ask what Iam? A part of you must go to make a part of me—if you are selfish—I suffer—so unselfishness is one of my chief characteristics if you put your own pleasures ahead of school duties—a part of me dies—so duty is another of the things of which I am made—if when the home team is playing its best you forget to give your support—then again I suffer. So loyalty, must be added to the sum of my attributes. And ancther—the most important of all completes me—if you say unkind or even think un- kind things about anyone connected with the school—if you want only to criticize, then I suffer, most of all, for you are taking away from me, the thing most essential to my existence—Love. After all Tam but a phantom—a thing you cannot see nor hear nor feel—except in your hearts—and if you will just give food to yourself, you will find that I am indeed a living, breathing, potent factor of your act of life—a spirit made of your own unselfishness, sense of duty, loyalty and love. a _— ee 19733 WILCOP ECHOLS FAEZAMAN hss hs Page 40 WILCOP ECHOES SP reshmen Helen Frasher 2s. 3.28 ese take ees President Park Rickles ..

Bobby as every one calls him, Studies Latin, English and Art. He is very tall and slim, And I think exceedingly smart. Frank is a mysterious fellow, And president of the class I think he likes Joyce Fetter A pretty little lass. Carl, who sometimes they call “Jake, Is very, very, small. He comes to school and is never late, But knows none of his lessons at all. Ruth makes a dandy Freshman. She’s as green as green can be. She sure hates us Sophomores, As every one can see. Ray and: Perry are very small, But that doesn’t matter the least. Thev are the smartest in the class, And they never try to cheat. There are seven more in the class, Who are greener still than these. If you don’t believe they are slow, Just go and ask Miss Fries. Miss Clements teaches their English, She has an awful time. They can not write a decent theme, Unless they make it rhyme. They say they like to be Freshman, But Oh! wouldn’t they get sore, If they didn’t happen to pass, Then they couldn’t be a Sophomore. Won't they like to hold our places, If they all pass this year. So when they start next September, We'll give them a hearty cheer.

In the records of College baseball you will find such names as Inman, Fullerton and Kime, men who received much of their early training on “‘the High” team.

The words ““Amphictionian”’ and ‘‘Ambition”’ are synonyms as has been shown by the efforts of our members in the series of unusually good programs given. The name was suggested by a wise little bird which chanced to fly in at an open window of a room where our literary group had assembled. Seeing the group and knowing that the young people were so ambitious that the name exactly fitted them, the little bird chirped the word ‘‘Amphictionian”’ then flew away. This magic word was the inspiration and this is the result of the meet- ing which followed. Name—Amphictionian. Officers—President—Seymour Falconer. Vice President—Arleen Fetzer.

The Alcyone Literary Society has several good speakers and musicians, and has had a few excellent programs. The programs consisted of orations, essays, debates, declamations, readings, bock-reviews, original storics, descriptions, charactee sketches and current cvents.

There is a wide spread feeling among the uncultivated minds that good literature, especially poetry, has little to do with thought of any kind, and even less to do with the thoughts of our common every day things. Some people regard poetry as being a “mere prettiness’’ and a refined means of idling away a tedious hour. I hope, and sincerely believe, that in the com- ing generations people will be more eager to read worth while literature, and no one will want to pick the trashy novels, which are found in some read- ing circles and which a few people desire to read. What Lincoln did for the Gettsburg audience, the great poets and prose writers, the masters of literature, have done for mankind at large. Litera- ture includes all writings that express for us what we consciously feel the need of saying but cannot. It includes the prose and verse which take our half formed thoughts and give them a touch of completeness. Human nature can be learned from nearly every kind of literature, even the lyric poem “Tbanatopsis” which William Bryant gives us portrays character. In this case it is the character of the poet. We at once notice he was very young when he started the production and as it treats chiefly of the fear of death, this shows that he was a very precocious child. There is also a dignity and simplicity in his words which give us a clear picture of the author’s-character. In-crder-to-get a better view of human nature, we should read productions from some cf the best character portrayers of history. For example ‘Shakespeare, Dickens, and George Ellict.” It is our duty to read to find out and to enrich ourselves in a better knowledge of human nature. By Some books are to be tasted, others are to be swallowed and some few are to be chewed and digested. That is, some books are to be read in parts, others, are to be read but not too curiously and others of the best sort are to be read in full, with great diligence and attention. We should not read in order to contradict nor to concide, nor to believe and take for granted but to weigh and consider. Most of our renouned literary productions are usually thought to be very dull and unentertaining. We should not approach literature from the fact side but fromthe heart side. We should first find what is common in ourselves. Plato was a Greek philosopher, who wrote for old and young, learned and unlearned. So find yourself in one of his fascinating dialogues, Page 60 IND = WILICOP ECHOLS = 19783 means a lifelong education in wonderful thinking and’ expression.“ Now, let me ask this important question. Why is it people delight in reading trashy literature? This question can be answered without much difficulty. In the first place it is nothing but a fad, a good for nothing novel is is published and of course all readers of cheap literature, read it at their first opportunity. Each book is popular for only a short time, just the same as a piece of ragtime music, and then is forgotten. In the second place people who read this sort of literature do not enoble nor elevate their ideals of living. They only care for the surface effect. They desire some- thing that takes no thought what ever to interpret the meaning. If the young are permitted to read literature of this sort, their whole life will be demoralized and after thinking of the unworthy hero or heroine, will so believe and see life as they do. Therefore the reading of light and trashy literature is not only a waste of time but is a great destroyer of moral character and “what is a man with- out a character?” The desire for reading worthwhile literature should be instilled in the youthful mind during its educational career and if this is done the person will have a desire to read good literature throughout his life. Page 61 IWS = WILTOP ECKOEB = 1S The students of Lodi Hi have taken a decided interest this year in out- side activities. They have proved to the surrounding towns that they are alive and deserve recognition. Not only have they furnished boys and girls, worthy atheletes for Basket ball and Base ball, but in addition, they have participated in the lit erary contests of the county. On March twenty-first, the Medina, Leroy and Lodi Oratorical and Dramatic contest was given at Seville. Previous to this event Paul Under- wood and Clair Jamison were chosén as the oratorical representatives, while Marie Marble was the only dramatic contestant. Each production showed careful training and thoughtful preparation. Many students traveled to their neighboring town to witness the performance, for all were eager for Lodi to win. However, the first prize was awarded to Kenneth Carpenter of Leroy, who delivered Roosevelt’s speech, ‘“The Flag on the Firing Line;’”’ second prize was reserved by Clair Jamison of Lodi, whose oration was ‘‘The Duties of a Citizen by Elihu Root. In the declamation Medina and Leroy took the honors. Although Lodi lost the coveted cup, yet they are not dismayed, for their motto is, “Tf at first, you don’t succeed, Try, try again.” Page 62 IMB = WILACOP ECHOES = 43 This year Lodi entered two teams of debators for the inter county contest. In the Medina County preliminary Gleena Dague won a place on the affirmative team, while Donald Fetzer was given place as alternate. Emma Kobb was our representative for the negative team, her work in rebuttal deservedly winning the enthusiastic applause of the audience. The Medina-Wayne County debates were scheduled to take place at Leroy and Apple Creek. The Medina affirmative team debating with the Wayne negative at Leroy. Although the debate was lost to the Wayne county team, our representative, Gleena Dague, was conceded by audience and judges alike to be the “star”? performer of the evening, her work in rebuttal being unusually effective. Although the other debate was post- poned undefinitely, because of illness of some of the debators, we feel con- fident in saying that our own Emma Kobb will have led the negative team to areal victory.

Man experiments have been made to show the remarkable effect of music upon the brain. It also increases the ability to think rightly, clearly and quickly. Musie is not new in schools, the work having been begin in Boston in 1828. Other cities followed Boston, until today there is scarcely a place in the country making any pre tention what ever to the maintenance of good schools, where organized work in music is not included in the curriculum. In the school it develops a love and an appreciation for music, and if it were not in the schools what would they be? And now in the greatest war the world has ever known, there is a human desire t 0 find relief from the tension of the hour—a relief which music, perhaps better than any other art, can afford. The musical department in Lodi Hi is one of the school’s chief attrac- tions. The general chorus is quite large, including all the members of the high school, a body of nearly eighty students. This body provides the general music for the assemblies, such as chapel, literary societies, and once in a while for community meetings. A new element which has also been introduced into the high school this year is the Mixed Glee Club. This is an organization, membership in which, for more reasons than one, is to be considered a privilege. This organization meets in the Assembly room for practice once or twice a week, and if a member, is absent three times from practice, with no good reason, he is supposed to automatically withdraw his membership. This organiza- tion is also called on for school entertainments, and such public meetings as the Farmers Institute, which was held in Lodi, January of 1918. The Glee Club consists of about 25 girls and 10 boys, as shown in the picture on page 69. ; The Girls Glee club, another organization which has newly been formed this year, is also making rapid progress in musical lines. This organ- ization usually practiced two times a week during the first semester, taking part of their valuable time after school. They are also frequently called upon for their best productions in songs, singing at the Lodi school enter- tainment, commencement, etc. This body consists of members as shown in the picture and list on the opposite page. It is indeed an advantage to be enrolled in any of these organizations, because of the valuable training received by the members. Too much credit cannot be given Miss Steepe, our instructor, through whose faithful work music has become a vital part of our school this year. Also Miss Arleen Fetzer who has served us as pianist during this school year.

Altho we have no school dances we have very interesting class parties. The popular—in fact we might say the only—form of amusement is Pig-in- the-Parlor a dance of the most primitive age. The first social event of the school season was the Seniors—no eat party. All of the classes were invited and every one had a lotoffun. Asthe chief requisete of good hosts and hostesses is to see that the guests have a good time, the Seniors felt that they had qualified as social leaders with out the usual feed. The society pool of the High School was undisturbed by any further Senior plunges. Next in order on our social calendar was the Freshman party, a general eating contest of which the ‘““Sophs” were likewise partakers—but the less said of that performance the better for the fact that neither Juniors nor Seniors were invited is sufficient indictment. Later in the year, the Freshman had another social whirl, this time the eighth graders acted in the capacity of guests. “Mr Gerig was official referee.’ So the Freshmen said, [they meant chaperon]|—the only thing lacking however, by way of a successful party was Mr. Gerig. The Big event of the year however was the Sophomore party. A two course affair if you please, sandwiches—and as many for each one.as they could possibly eat—, Cocoa, and, as a grand finale, ice cream and cake. An all school party again, and if anyone failed to have a good time we did not hear of it. Likewise the B. B. teams entertained all the visiting teams with spreads in the art room, an innovation of this year. We would defeat them, and then feed them. Also give them cocoa with marshmallows. The last social event of the year was the Junior-Senior banquet. May 16, 1918. The Juniors welcomed the Seniors to““Ye Tavern’ at LeRoy for the Annual Banquet. We knew that this would be our last school party and we now know that it was the best and to the Juniors of the class of 719, we of 718 take this opportunity of extending our thanks for the good time they have shown us.

Where the idea is not to see how much work one can not do but to see how much one can do? If not we invite you to visit the art room any day, almost any time—whether or not Miss Fries is present does not in the least matter —you will find work and good work being accomplished along a variety of lines. Look at the picture of the art room. See those boys there at ° the table? They are just as interested as they lock and you ought to see the work they turn out. Perspectives that Mr. Smith says are good enough to use as “‘adds’”’ in the Saturday Evening Post! Automobile pcsters, with some real lettering on them, factory posters which seem to consist chiefly of smoke rythm—any kind you might care to see, they make them. Then notice the people working at the easels. They are just finishing up some paticularly good charcoal studies of still life. The same group also works in water color, and just to fill in unoccupied moments make posters for games, stunts ,entertainments, etc. and so save advertising bills! We be- lieve in being useful as well as ornamental. Those people working at baskets belong to the design classes all except the boy, who is in a class all by himself. They have embroidered cushions, table runners, towels, etc. using designs originated by themselves. The design is the important thing although stress is also laid on neatness. These girls are not going to be deceived by cheap flashy designs—they will know what good harmony both of design and color really is. Their baskets again are merely the working out of their own designs—what more pleasant way of teaching people to think—and isn’t that after all the purpose of education as a whole? Credit is due the following art students for work done on the various | posters used in the annual; Mable Long, Bonnie White, Ethyl Barnard, Lola Estil and Hulda Kime. Hulda Kime being responsible for the idea of using the little people who so pleasantly typify our own high school folk. Page 76 i918 CY AL YW CHO) CC ) VI. INS ART ROOM Page 77 hss = WILYCOP ECHOES Id Art---A Short History The Art department of the Lodi High school is fairly ecmplete consider- ing the size of the school. The first year that art was made part of Lodi Hi course of instruction, there were but six art students, each one really con- stituting a class in himself, one studying charcoal, another design, and still another basketry, etc. At present we have two classes in beginning de- sign, one in advanced applied design [basketry being a feature of all three classes] a class in charcoal and water color, a class consisting of five boys studying postering and lettering, and two girls both members of the first art class, who are doing advanced work of various kinds. The group known as the studio class entered posters at Medina in preliminary contest for the state food conservation poster contest held in February in Columbus. Two of the eight posters entered, one by Mabel Barbour, the other by Levera Cunker were selected for the group of three sent from Medina County. Miss Fries a graduate of O. 8. U. has been the art instructor for the past four years. He Page 78s hd WiLYCOP ECHOES 1993 OMNGAL TRAN INS WILYCOP ECHOES 1993 Manual Training Manuel Training was introduced into the Lodi school in the fall of 1916. Mr. Mover was hired as instructor. The first year was a great success for many of the boys, who did not care to take Latin or German found that they were very skillful in the use of their hands. Numerous articles, both useful and ornamental were turned out the first year. Among which were: bookeases, tables, bird houses, ladders, chairs, stools, milk stools, and shoe-blackening cases. This year the advanced class is learning the finer points of carpentering, while the beginners are finding out, by means of the same tasks as were given last year, whether or not they desire to continue the course for another year. Carried along with the manuel training, a course in mechanical draw- ing is given, which enables the boys not only to draw their own plans and designs, but gives them an idea of the basic principles of drafting. We hope this useful course will never be dropped from our school. Page 80 MAS = ILECOP ECHOES = 638 MANUAL TRAINING ROOM Page 81 he, Page 82 WILYCOP ECHOLS ®Our School Board ———— J. W.

But however in the beginning the building that was used by the town as a public school was originally owned by Henry Bennader as a hay barn. Later a select schecl was criginated in Lodi. This held its meetings on the third floor of the Masonic hall, which is now occupied by N. W. Hower Son’s store. Each pupil was required to furnish his cwn individual equip- ment. When cold weather would come the school would be moved into the town hall. In 1867 a movement to start an Academy was begun, headed by Mr. Henry Ainsworth, with a subscription of $25,000. Those that could not pay money, did what work they cculd. The land bought for the site was an old apple orchard. The building after being erected was said to have been the finest of Northern Ohio, cutside the cities. Later a bearding hall was erected at a cost of $4,000 to provide cheap, yet adequate, room for the school pupils. Mr. Miller and Mr. Grannis were among the first professcrs of the Academy. In the fall of 1868 Mr. Lee rented the school, and formed the “one study plan.” In 1880 the building was sold for $5,000 to the town of Lodi. Mr. S. .W. Themas was the first public school professor. From 188€-1€88. Mr. Lee was supcrintendent. In 1888-1898 B. F. Hoover filled the Supt. office. He was fcllowed by Mr. Grannis, Mr Elliot was the next Supt. but he re- mained for only one year. The Lodi Academy was never what one would term a success in a financial way, but the men and women who have graduated from the halls have shcwn the mcrits cf the school. Three of the young ladies have become successful physicians they are Ida Hoag of Spokane, Wash., Kate Kurt of Akron and I illian Towslee of Cleveland, who died just recently [April 27, 1918] Later the school was changed about to give better ventilation to the pupils. A piano was bought by the high school for $1400. Literaries and public preformances, given by the Franklin and Lodi High school literary — societies were very prominent for many years, Page 84 1W3 IIOP ECHOES 18 In 1914 the schoc] became so crowded that a new modern building was erected in front of the old academy. The building is very spacious and accommodates the pupi ls vecy well The old building was changed and re- modeled, wired fer electricity and the old High School room was changed into a gymnasium where many exciting basket ball games were played in the three years of 1916-17-18. - In the spring of 1918 a play ground equipment, donated by Mr. V. A. Homan was installed onthe grounds. Thisis one of the finest gifts that could be made, for the pupils show their gratitude in the amount of enjoyment attained. Thus the histery cf L.

AUBLE FOR Furniture, Ingrain Carpets, Rugs, Linoleum, Matting, Etc. Without question the largest assortment of the kind in Medina County. On account of the war, manufacturers of floor coverings are very short of material so that unless conditions in Europe soon change, after 1918 very few rugs will be available. Already the supply of large sizes are being exhausted, in fact very few dealers have anything to offer larger than 11-3x12. For this season we have nearly all sizes up to 12x15 in stock at prices far below the present quotations. Linoleums we have in all widths up to 12 ft. Matting a nice assortment. Come in and look us over when in the market. It might be profitable to you as we may be able to show you we have the goods at prices much below out-of-town stores.
