It is service that makes knowledge worth while. If a man learns all there is to know, but puts it to no use, his learning is not justifiable. A chemist may have studied, and may have learned all the laws of chemistry and its secrets. He may have had practical experience. If he keeps this knowledge within his own small head, and does not put it to work for the bettering of society, lze has wasted a life. He has lacked that spirit of service which would have dedicated his talents to the enrichment of the world. The aim of life is for each of us to leave the world better than he found it. Unless there is service. this aim cannot be realized. All knowledge, unless turned to useful activity, is wasted. Service has been the predominant note in the lives of all great men. It is because they thought of what they could give to human- ity, rather than what they could get from it, that they have become great. The sum of the teachings of the greatest Leader who ever influenced men is expressed in the word Service Abraham Lincoln and Woodrow Wilson, two great Americans, have found fameg but ll0t because they sought it. Each had as his guiding ideal, service. One cannot give his full amount of service to the world if he is not trained. For this reason, ure attend high school. Education brings to light the many fields for service. Those lives which were worth living were devoted to the service of mankind. Opportunities for service have presented themselves many times during the period of our high school life. Our preliminary view of life has come and gone. Those who took the opportunities and rendered service to school and classmates became the leaders. Now we stand gazing out upon the broad perspective of life itself. Op- portunities are many. All must decide whether service is a privilege to be seized or a responsibility to be shirked. Each person must determine whether service or some lesser aim shall rule his life. If a life of service is chosen, the time will come when each will look back and say, I have done the chief good possible to my fellow men. 1 am satisfied. l l s' -I is .. rn 1- 4 A ., fka- ,.

HOBSON. I Dedication. UHINC his years of service to Kearney high school, Mr. Hobson has done his best. A high school of recognized leadership in scholastic and athletic effort has been built up under his guidance. From an obscure school has been developed a promin- ent one. Popularity has been sacrificed to principles and ideals by Mr. Hobson. Sincerity has marked his every undertaking. In everything that has been done, he has tried to better the school. Affectionately, the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-four dedicates this. its year-hook, to Mr. Cloy S. Hobson. ln this material way, the class expresses its appreciation of his services.

A three year course of English is offered in Kearney high school. Dur- ing the first two years, composition is stressed and some attention is given to the study of literature. The first semester of the third year is given over to the study of American Liter- ature, and the second to the study of short-stories, Hamlet, and The Princess. Argumentation. Argumentation is taught to a small class. lts purpose is to prepare the pupils, during the first semester, in the work for their debates of the second semester. The debating team is made up largely of members of this class. fournalism. The journalism course offers a year of instruction in the fundamentals of news writing. A regular textbook is used, and a yearvs work is given. This class furnishes, for the most part, the material for the school paper. HISTURY. Two years of history are offered in the high school: world history in the sophomore year and American history in the senior year. The study aims to give a better understanding of the present, and to make a preparation for the future, through a study of the past. The year's work is divided into eight units. At the beginning of each unit, the teacher gives a talk touching upon the leading points, as preparation. With the aid of outlines, the pupils take notes from reference books and are then required to write the complete story in outline form from memory. Citizenship. Citizenship aims to acquaint pupils with the development and organization of the home, church, school, commun- ity, city, country, state and nation. This instruction helps each one to feel that he is a part of these institu- tions, that he receives benefit from them, and that he is obligated to them. Commercial Law and Economics. Over one hundred pupils are enroll- ed in the classes in commercial law and economics. Commercial law aids a pupil in acquiring a knowledge of legal principles, terms and forms. Economics aims to acquaint the pupil with the fundamental laws of econ- omics, and also to lead the pupils to see the problems facing our country so that they may establish their own ideas and ways of thinking. MATHEMATICS. Four semesters of mathematics are required in this school. Six semesters are offered: algebra I, II, and III, two semesters of plane geometryg and one semester of solid geometry. Four teach- ers devote all or part of their time to this department. SCIENCE. Botany. The aim of this course is three fold: namely, to obtain a greater ap- preciation of nature, to obtain a basis for scientific skill in the laboratory, and to gain a sane conception of plant evolution. Forestry and forest preser- vation are taken up, as well as the study of plants that grow in, on and under the land and water. Flowers are collected, disected and sorted into proper families. Chemistry and Physics. Nothing can be found that has not been touched by the hand of the chemist. Chemistry teaches such prac- tical things as: care of milk, removal of stains, softening of water and treat- ment of burns. There are three chem- istry classes. Chemistry is the science of sciences.

Tif-'- . , .LT ' Physics answers the four questions: What does it do? How much? How does it work? And, at what cost? All problems of machinery and other ap- pliances are solved. Even the girls can be interested in such questions as, How does my car run?', FOREIGN LANGUAGES. The foreign language department includes Latin and Spanish. Four years of Latin are offered: Latin grammar, Caesar, Cicero and Virgil. The latter two alternate from year to year. The Spanish course consists of three years of work: grammar, reading and com- position, and reading and advanced grammar. COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT. As every one knows, all pupils in the high school cannot attend college. The commercial course enables a per- son to step into a position upon graduation, as it prepares him for more of the participation in one or several specific activities of commerce. It not only creates the centrative power, but it greatest con- also gives to the pupil the power of accuracy, speed, reliability, and initiative. NORMAL TRAINING. Teaching has become a profession. ,Iust as people must study to practice medicine and law, so they must study to become teachers. High school pupils may prepare themselves for this pro- fession by means of the normal train- ing course. The course consists of two years of grade subjects, review, state examinations, and practice teaching. GIRLS' VOCATIONAL DEPART- MENT. One year of sewing is required of every girl in Kearney high school. The Smith-Hughes course, separate from this, is an optional two-year course, which has recently been put into the public schools. This depart- ment includes sewing, cooking, gener- al science, first aid, nursing, home management, and child-care. The girls in this department have efficiently provided the menus for several ban- quets this year. DRAMATICS. Dramatics is an elective subject which teaches the art of reading. All phases of humorous and dramatic work are taken up. The members of this class have given individual numbers and short plays before the assembly at various times. Each year, several mem- bers enter the district contest and many have taken high honors in these con- IBSIZS. MUSIC. The vocal department consists of a boys' and a girls' glee club. Both or- ganizations have made public appear- ances, and they also produce an oper- etta each year. Because there is so much talent in the school along musical lines there are now two orchestras and two bands. MANUAL TRAINING. One year of manual training is re- quired of each high school boy. This course is designed to train the boy to use his hands, to make him accurate in the use of tools, and to prepare him to take up a mechanical trade later. Since over ninety per cent of all the men employed are working with their hands, this shop work will be of great value to the boys when they seek employment. PHYSICAL EDUCATION. One year of gymnasium work is re- quired of every high school pupil. Both boys and girls take work in set- ting-up exercises and beneficial games. As the different sports come in season, part of the time is given over to special instruction in each game. Jw' X: D 0 mwmbh EL. Palm' I0 px? W X.

When as freshmen, first we came into these spacious halls of famef, the class of I924 numbered one hundred and forty, and was noted for its pep at assemblies and rallies. Although upper class-men spoke of the Hgreen- nessn of the surroundings, the fresh- men, who are now seniors, were too green to understand. Through enlight- enment by upper classmen, the fresh- men discovered a green hue in them- selves which they had never noticed before. The first class officers were: presi- dent, Robert Hamer, vice-president, Irene Welsh, secretary and treasurer, Luther Wimberley: Sargeant-at-arms. .Ioe Bennett: and Echo reporter, Estelle Louise Butler. The registration the second Vear was one hundred and twenty-eight. The sophomore officers were: president, Irene Welsh, vice president, Paul Lind- berg: secretary and treasurer. Luther Vvimberleyg sargeant-at-arms, Clarence Trivelpieceg Echo reporter. Sada Mae Macaulay: and yell leader, Robert Hamer. Having acquired a little more knowledge, the sophomores of that year were capable of playing the hosts at the reception for the freshmen. Dur- ing that year, members of the class of 1924 got into the spirit of things a little better, and several members of the class participated in athletics. Near the end of the year, a picnic was held at Gibbon. The third year, the class was still going strong with one hundred and the pro- ducing a junior class play, HClarenca, the proceeds of which were used for the junior-senior banquet. The class was especially active in all athletics, music, debating and declamation. The Masquers was organized, with the ma- jority of the charter members juniors. Three of the seven Student Advisory twenty-two members. As juniors, class established a precedent by Board members were juniors. Two en- joyable picnics were held, one in the fall, and one in the spring. The larg- est social function of the year was the junior-senior banquet. Decorations were elaborate and beautiful. The af- fair was pronounced a great success. In the junior year, the officers Were: president, Paul Lindberg, viee-presi- dent, Irene Woodruff, secretary and treasurer, Irene Welsh: sargeant-at- arms, Harold Costello, Echo reporter, Sada Mae Macaulayg and yell leader, Robert Hamer. September 8, 1923, found the noble class of one hundred and fourteen the largest senior class, by thirty-two, ever in Kearney high. Those chosen to guide the senior ship of state were: president, Robert Hamer, vice-presi- dent, Armine Lett, secretary and treas- urer, Irene Welsh, sargent-at-arms, ,Ioe Bennett, and yell leader, Homer Morrow. The seniors composed more than half the members of the football and basketball squads. The Student Advisory Board boasts seven members, six of which are seniors. Only two members of the debating teams were not seniors. Seventeen pupils of the class of 1924- are charter members of the Kearney chapter of the National Honor Society. The many other clubs organized during this year have many seniors on their rolls. The first social event was a picnic at Gibbon. Tark- ington's 'GSeventeen7, was produced as the senior class play, proving to be one of the most popular senior plays ever presented. The junior-senior banquet was held at the Presbyterian church, May 9. This year-book marks the final efforts of the seniors. Graduation exercises for the class of 1924- were held on May 29. The history of the class of One Thousand, Nine Hundred and Twenty-four was at an end. mln-4. I 5 kfi V N , -railiillllll '- KX? K sg Fda? 1?

Only a moment before, the jangling voices of quarreling relatives and heirs had drowned the monotonous drone of the voice of the lawyer. But now the noise was hushed. A tall stately man push- rd through the crowd, took his place at the platform, held out a long strip of slightly crumpled paper and start- ed to read. Mllhe will of the class of l921 has been found. The virtues and valuable possessions of the senior class will be properly bestowed. lt is now necessary only to investigate its terms. Following is the last will and testament of the class: :We the members of the class of '24, of Kearney high school, of the county of Buffalo, and the state of Nebraska, being of sound mind l?I memory l?l and understanding l?l do make, pub- lish. and declare the following as our last will and testament, that is to say: COLLECTIVELY. gWe give and bequeath any spare credits. which by chance we have ac- cumulated to the more unsuccessful members of the junior class so that in the year to come they may be able to uphold the senior dignity at the last roll call. 'To the beloved faculty, we give and bequeath all the amazing know- ledge and startling information that we have furnished them from time to time on our various examination papers. We trust that all branches of science and learning may be enlight- ened by this hitherto unknown know- ledge. To the freshmen fto bel we give all the overlooked wads of gum, which may be found adhering to desks, ban- isters. lockers or any such likely or unlikely places. 'fo the juniors we bequeath the one hundred fourteen assembly seats, in the front, center section, which we have been occupying during the last year. 'To Mrs. Mabel P. Scoutt we be- queath the balance in the class treas- ury for use in buying new pads of pink and blue slips. Verily, we say unto you. fair schoolmates, Ye shall suffer as we have suffered. To the juniors, with much regret, we bequeath the senior privileges and our place in the hearts of the faculty members, although we know how total- ly undeserving of such a prize they are. INDIVIDUALLY. 'A Ford is left by Ward Minor to any one who can keep it in the straight and narrow path. :Juanita Bruce leaves the curl in her hair to Virginia O'Connor so she wonit have to spend six-bits a week for a marcel. 'Joe Bennett gives Lillian L. back to her brother, Jack. 'His ability to chew gum is be- queathed by Carl Schmidt to any one with pep enough to continue the habit. LLeona Sheldon bequeaths her sar- casm to Mr. W. G. Ingram. 'Each member of the junior class is to receive one freckle from Ethel Smith, said freckle to be worn as a beauty spot, at an angle just three- fourths of an inch below the outside corner of the left eye. Sixfilliam Penn gives Pennsylvania back to the Indians. 'To any one who needs it, Harold Stephens gives his ability to bluff. Apply early and avoid the rush.

'To Izoria Jenks, Armine Lett be- queaths all of her fellows.', She says she might as well, so as to save lzoria the trouble of getting them herself. 'Estelle Louise Butler gives her extraordinary ability of making breaks to Marie Haase. 'All the knowledge of science which Wayne Danielson possesses, he gives to Rollin Downing. lBetter get six or seven note books, Rollin. It might prove fatal to attempt to carry it around in your head.l 'Since she has lost her eyebrow pluck, Venice Mallory donates the un- wanted portion of her eye-brows to Evelyn Van Buren. 'Olive Dewey gives her unusual abil- ity to talk to Cameron Mans. Now perhaps he can avoid swallowing his tongue while asking for a date. 'Any one who will promise to use them in a nice way, may have Anna Macklin's big, limpid lamps. 'Always able to find Haydn in the hall, Beulah Sitorius wills the secret of her success to Sadie Brigham, so that she can carry on a serial conversa- tion with Bill Downing. 'Because she says she is shrinking in height, Emily Haury sends in an appeal for a foot or two of some- body,s longness. tCuess that's up to you.

'So that the Girl Reserves will prove a paying proposition next year, Sada Mae Macaulay bequeaths her appe- tite to the juniors. 'Giving the seniors their hats, Bob Hamer starts them on their various walks of life. They have worried him long enough. 'And last and most important, we leave the memories of all the little and the big things which have hap- pened during our school life, and The Log of 1924, to any one who will protect and cherish them. 'All thc rest of our property or pos- sessions, whatsoever or wheresoever, are bequeathed to the class sponsor, Mr. Don Thornton, that he may dispose of them as he sees fit. 'And we do hereby constitute and appoint the said Mr. Don Thornton as sole executor of this, our last will and testament. 'In witness thereof, we, the Class of 1924, have hereunto set our hands and seal this last month of our high school life.--Signed: CLASS or 1924. 1L. S.J ' WMM Page Ii-l ,,,, , 14,5 1ffl'll 1L..

Today as I sat by the fireside play- ing with Saratoga, my Angora kitten, Matt happened to drop in for a few moments from across the way. Now, of course, that was nothing unusual for Matt to do. for as yet both he and I are still alone in the world. Professor Wigton, by the way, has just published the twentieth of his series of poems entitled, wfhe Wooings of a Bachelor? But as I was saying, it was not an unusual thing for Matt to come to see ine. In fact his visits had grown to be quite a habit, but the queer thing this time was that as soon as he had handed me the morning paper, Coon,s Universal Timesf' the tears began to trickle over his stiff white collar, and he turned to go with a few inarticulate words about old times. Now you know itis not like Matt to act in a morose or melancholy manner, so I knew right away that something had happened. I picked up the newspaper and started to read. And there, in red print on the front page I saw: Two Greatest Scientific Discoveries of Ages. '4Perpetual Motion and the Missing Link. -- By the Noted Professor Weayxne Dandulofxonzf' At first I did not recognize the name, but in a moment, I remembered that it was my old classmate, Wayne. Matt had told me before that Wayne had changed the spelling of his name since gaining fame. In reading a few lines further, I found the L'Missing Linkn to have been discovered in the personage of Frank Ceiselman. That name also sounded familiar but I could not place it in my memory. The next thing for which I looked in the paper was the funny page, and after reading '4Mutt and Jeffn I noticed directly under the artistis name, 'iposted by Homer Morrow and Harold Costellof' The last scene, where little Jeff cried, uOh Mutt, use discretion? seemed so life like that it made me tremble, and I spent a sleepless night worrying over the fate of poor Windy. In looking over the movie adver- tisements, I found that Haydn Bur- ford and Beulah Sitorius were being featured at the Crescent in the sensa- tional picture Mad Love. I had read before, in a movie magazine, that when Valentino first heard of Haydn's entrance into the movies, he shot him- self. I also found that the play Hamlet was to be presented in the near future at the World Theatre in Odessa. The members of the cast whom I rec- ognized were: Hamlet ,,,,i,,,. ......,,... . .Jerry Congleton Ophelia. ..... Estelle Louise Butler Polonius ............,............,,. Glenn Bowen Horatio .......... ,... .....,.. H e rbert Staubitz The Crave Diggers .. Harold Stephens, Larry McMahon Having found so many of my class- mates so unexpectedly, I was en- couraged to look further into the paper. Some of the items which I found were the following: Notice-I give private lessons in high diving and tight rope walk- ing.-Fern Morris. Wanted-A housekeeper. Not par- ticular about size, color, or ap- pearance. Matrimony in view. tThe name was not given but I knew from the address that it was Francis Wimberleyl. Lost. Strayed, or Stolen-My hus- band.

Paul Lindberg will cross the Pacific ocean this week to represent the United States in a tiddledy winkw tourna- ment at the Olympic games to be held in Peking, China. Under court news, I found that Luna Homan is suing Lynn Quiggle for breach of promise. 0. K. Campbell is suing for di- vorces from his seventeen wives. I had heard before that Olney had joined the Mormon church and had moved to Utah. His plea was that of threatened starvation for all eighteen members involved, if the present conditions were allowed to continue. The following was taken from beneath the heading In Cupid's Netf, CRUIT-PICKETT. The marriage of Miss Ruth Cruitt to Foy Pickett, of this city, took place at the home of the bride's parents last Sunday afternoon. Rev. W. Minor performed the ceremony. ll had been informed before that Ward and his wife were making Elm- creek better by service and songb. Under HGeneral News Itemsw and at other places through the paper I gleaned certain facts. Irene Welsh is in Denver teaching the heathens on Mars to sing The Star Spangled Bannerl' by wireless. Loren Pallet has just completed his life work in finding that it would take 5,235,367 years, seven months, and three days, for a fly working twen- ty-four hours a day, walking around a golf ball, to wear it down to the size of a pea. In an interesting article by Dr. Horace Johnston, he states: ulf you chew gum for three hours every day you lose energy, so that at the age of 268 you will just naturally die from loss of energyf' I believe if more people would take into consideration the tragic short life of the gum chew- er, that Wrigley would soon be run out of business. Bob Hamer has become a prominent star in grand opera. He is especially adapted to the singing of Italian songs. The position as superintendent of the numerous ward schools in Optic, Nebraska, has been secured by Clar- ence Johnson. The fiction writer for the Kearney Democrat is Sada Mae Macaulay. Now in Congress, Gladys Grantham has just passed a bill to take Nebraska to Colorado, so that we may enjoy the sunny heights of the Rocky Moun- tains. Arniine Lett is in Honolulu design- ing clothing for the natives. After meeting with much disappoint- ment in life, Eva Noyes has gone to the wilds of Africa, where she lives as the queen of the Nomadic tribes of the Sahara. The position of mayor in the city of Kearney is successfully filled by William Penn. His first act was to repeal all speed laws and institute free gas for all the poor high school boys. Acting as a fairy in Ringling's Circus, Juanita Bruce captivates her audience with gauze wings and red stockings. After searching the paper over sev- eral times to be sure that I had miss- ed no important news item, I folded it carefully and placed it away in a little chest with my treasured Log, and all the other valuable little relics which I had gathered from time to time because they had helped to por- tray the history of the Class of 1924. 0,Q,of W ' awww l':np:v ll Q -,uhigfnqv-. , x .fx xx f M Qw x Q A f Sf Q Q .f - W 'am 'rfWyi4 'X V 4,1 Q 25 , 3 sg 53A 91-1, IMZ9, bf . fi ..,..

Glance into the athletic hall of fame of the Kearney high school. Notice the many familiar junior countenances. There is a noble statue of Fritz East- erling. The inscription is this state- ment, All-state football fullback for two consecutive years. A star in the football firmamentff Look on down the row of football heroes. Here are busts of Keenan and Wunderwald, with headgears and shoulder-pads. Ob- serve, on the other side of the hallway, arrayed in basketball suits, statues of Huber, Wunderwald, Keenan, Wad- ley, and Patton. The bronze tablet on the wall reads thus: The interclass basketball tournament, season of 1924, won by juniorsfi Donit forget, before you leave, to see the familiar faces of many juniors, in track and baseball togs, in the far end of the hallway. Step across the way to the noble building which houses the likenesses of famous people, famous in branches other than athletics. Look at the en- semble reproduction of the band and of the orchestra. Junior faces are pro- minent, twenty-one in all. Gerald Shaf- to and Donald Reed make up half of the saxaphone quartet. ,lack Wheelock, Van Miller, Gerald Shafto, and Eugene Wvest form one quartet for vocal pro- ductions. They are all juniors. Notice the pictures of the publication staffs. HAZEL PANEK, Yell Leader MR. W. G. INCRAM. Sponsor 96 The business manager of the Echo and two of his five assistants belong to the class of 1925. Two other members of this class are associate editors and four are reporters. The annual staff has drawn upon the juniors. The group of fiery-tongued orators, the debaters, includes Jess Homan of the affirmative team, and also Van Miller, alternate for the negative team. One junior is also recognized in the Student Advisory Board. Do not forget to see the pictures of the other c-rganizations, nor fail to notice how many juniors belong to them. lf you pass into the adjoining room, you find yourself in sort of a museum. Here is a book which will interest you. It is called, Events of the 1923-1924 School Yearf, Turn to the junior sec- tion. The record states that the annual junior play was, 4'The Lion and the Mouse. A successful bunco party was held on March 25, 19247 Read fur- ther. It appears that 'the juniors pro- vided a fine assembly program once during the year. Ruby Fleharty Won first place in the humorous division of the high school declamatory contest. The crowning event of the year, ac- cording to the book, was the banquet, tendered the seniors by the juniors. The final entry in the junior section of the book expresses the appreciation of the class to its sponsor, Mr. W. G. Ingram, for his kindly guidance. HW' aw! F 9 -f' i ' 5, ...

President Lois RoB1NsoN. V ice-President RAYMOND RAUE, Secretfzry-Treasurer ae The sophomore tree is growing fast, and by the senior year the now burst- ing buds will have turned to ripened fruit, ready to be picked by the wait- ing world. Including roots, trunk, limbs, twigs, and leaves, this tree boasts one hundred and sixty-two members. In order that a tree may weather the storms successfully, especially the storms of high school life, it must have deep, strong roots. No better an- chorage could be wanted than that furnished by Mr. Nelson, sophomore sponsor. An upright trunk is the live president, Lawrence Coke. Among the stout limbs of the tree are Lois Robin- son, vice-presidentg Raymond Bane, secretary-treasurerg and Avis Lambert, yell leader. Other limbs are many and are full of promising buds. Sophomorcs take active part in athletics. They not only get out for the teams, but they give good support with their yelling. Pep is a strong point with the sophomores. On the football team, Ernest Miller and Gift Godfrey found their places. Both received letters. This makes Godfrey's second football K.,' Although no sophomores played with the Bearcat first team in basketball, Harry Batie, Ted Simpson, and Roger Hall found berths with the Bearkittens, or Reserves. They will make good material for future Bearcat teams. The same co-operation was given Avis LAMBERT, Yell Leader A. W. NELsoN, Sponsor 96 by the sophomores in track and base- ball as in the other sports. Girls' athletics received support from sophomore girls. Many took part in the program, and by so doing made points toward a girls, KW Although unsuccessful in the tournaments, the girls participated loyally. Altogether, thirteen sophomores are enrolled in the band and orches- tras. Purcell Dermody and Virgil Lod- wig are members of the bandis saxa- phone quartet. Sophomores also enjoy vocal music, many being enrolled in the glee clubs. Publications also draw upon the sophomores for staff material. Three members of the class belong to the annual staff, one in the editorial division and two in the business de- partment. The Echo business staff has two sophomores and the reportorial, eight. The spreading sophomore limbs have extended to other lines. The class members are beginning to participate in the clubs and other activities. The sophomores gave the assembly pro- gram on March 28. A pantomime in- terpretation of popular songs was giv- en. The latter part of the program turned into a short vaudeville, with songs, jokes, and tumbling. This pro- gram was provided at the suggestion of the Student Advisory Board, and proved a successful entertainment. WW' 1 i' QTL xi W v Q V - V .41 1 1 Us Wg? x ' H , M la Y Q sig!

Forward! the freshmen classll' Thus sounded the charge of the green rookies on September 10, 1923. And they took the school by storm. Upper classmen, however, did not lose their grip on school control by this onslaught of green frosh. What- ever they lacked in numbers, they made up in brains. Freshmen had an advantage in numbers over any other class in school, the enrollment being one hundred and eighty Green! This freshman class suffered, as every other freshman class before it, from that peculiar malady which has for its chief symptom a brilliant emerald hue. When one loses his locker key, he goes to the office and pays twenty-five cents for its return. One freshman boy parted company with his key uninten- tionally. He was green and thought the fact should be announced to the whole school. A scrawled notice ap- peared on the door of his locker. Closed, till 3:30 on account of bank- ruptcy. Freshman girls made sim- ilar mistakes. After some time. the seniors succeeded in teaching the frosh some of the fundamental rules of high ,school etiquette. Freshmen learned to speak courteously and with respect to the faculty and seniors. They also learned to treat the sophomores and juniors with the proper deference. By the end of the year the color had faded till it was much less noticeable than at first. Action seems to be a part of the freshmen. Led by their snappy yell leader, Willis Downing, they yell as though they had been in high school four years instead of one. Though they have had little opportunity, they have supported the various activities when- ever possible. The membership of the band and the second orchestra includes several freshmen. lVlen1bers of the Hbabyll class of the school also belong to the glee clubs, some taking part in thc choruses of the operetta. These frosh should make good material for musical organizations of the future. Louise West upheld the honor of the class in the declamation contest. Both the freshman girls and the boys have taken an active part in athletics. The girls have entered into all the forms of girls' athletics. The boys have had good football and basketball teams. Five boys received freshman football numerals. They are: Moore, Forest Nutter, Willis Down- ing, Jack Hammer, and Russell Hale. In the Central Nebraska Tournament, the frosh basketball team was eliminat- ed in the second game, but only after hard playing. Among the most interesting fresh- man events was the assembly which the class provided. The Student Advisory Board decided that the Wednesday following St. Patrick's Day would be appropriate for a freshman assembly. Real talent was unearthed in the pro- gram. An exceedingly clever panto- mime was staged. An effective reading was also given.

Back in the shadowy past of the high school, placed on a rugged shelf in an obscure, musty corner, rest many tiny packets containing the Kearney high school traditions. Year after year they have been placed there to wait in a long, undisturbed silence until they are again waked to a life of gay, sparkling activity. After brushing away the dust and cobwebs, and searching over the fad- ed labels, the first packet to be taken from its place is the I-'oorBALL BANQUET. This volume leaves a deep imprint on the dust covered shelf and its wrap- pings are musty and yellow. But by untying the knotted string and tearing away the deceiving cover a dazzling picture is revealed: A picture of charming ladies in evening gowns, escorted by proud football warriors, of long banquet tables, decorated with flashing streamers of blue and gold, football favors and place cards. These representatives of Kearney high school have gathered for the last time to pay tribute to those who have defended her honor during the last football season. The next little packet to be taken from its place is white and new. The straight folds in its wrapping and the neat bows of ribbon holding it in place, show that it has not yet been unfolded as a tradition. The finger prints upon the dust about it tell that it has but recently been disturbed. This new packet is marked, THE HONOR SOCIETY. This society was first given its place in Kearney high school during the past year, and is a chapter of the National Honor Society, which has about two hundred such chapters throughout the United States. The members of the society are chosen from the fourth highest in scholarship in the senior class and are further judged upon lead- ership, service and character. The next little packet to be taken from its place is also comparatively new. The string which is around it has been broken only once, for it is THE JUNIOR CLASS PLAY. This tradition was founded by the present senior class last year, when the play Clarence', was presented. The purpose of giving the play was to secure funds for the Junior-Senior Banquet, so that the members of the junior class need not carry such a heavy burden. As a whole the plan was very successful, and was taken up by the junior class this year as a tradi- tion, in the form of The Lion and the Mouse., The next little packet is swelled with fun. It almost bursts its wrap- pings waiting for the time when it can laugh aloud, and watch the fright- ened, trembling little freshies stumble down the aisle to their fate, for it is THE SENIOR-FRESH MAN AFFAIR. By this function, the freshmen are recognized in Kearney high school and receive a lasting lesson in endurance and self-control. They are usually forced through some embarrassing peru formance, which helps them to realize how green and insignificant they are, and to understand how necessary it is for them to secure a better supply of knowledge during the following four years. THE DECLAMATORY CONTEST Has also gained the honor of being placed upon the shelf with the tradi- tions of Kearney high school. Every year a number of the talented pupils of Kearney high school participate in the high school declamatory contest. The winner in each division of this con- test represents Kearney high school in the district declamatory contest.

THE SENIOR PLAY ls the next packet upon the shelf and although it offers no real reason, purpose, or excuse for its existence, without it the shelf would seem un- balanced and lacking. A senior class could never be graduated feeling fully satisfied, without first having present- ed a senior class play. The proceeds of the play are used in purchasing some gifts for the high school. The class play given last year was uCome Out Of the Kitchenf, This year the senior class presented Seventeen,,, a play taken from Booth Tarkington's well known novel. After the senior play has been re- turned to its former resting place, and the end of the fourth year of happy high school life is drawing near THE SENIOR BREAKFAST Attracts attention, and is gleefully taken from its place. lts title portrays practically all the knowledge which is found underneath its wrapping, for it is an early-hour breakfast which is held annually by the senior class. The cover, however, does not portray all the fun and good times which are de- rived from further investigation of its contents. THE SENIOR SNEAK DAY. ls next in line, and is the one tradi- tion that shows the place and privilege a senior holds over his fellow school- mates. The Senior Sneak Day is a day when the seniors usneakn away from school, without letting any one know a thing about it, motor out of town, have a good time, and don't even receive unexcused absence slips when they return. This event looks partial and seems entirely unfair, but seniors are seniors only once, you see, and all the other lower classmen may receive the senior privileges some day. After this packet has been taken from its place, but one tiny parcel re- mains. It is brown and ill-shaped and bears marks portrayng the hardest, steadiest wear of any of the school traditions. The many foldings and un- foldings of its wrapping have ruffled the edge of the paper, and worn it through at the corners. The string has been knotted, broken and reknotted until it seems impossible to find a new place to tie it. But, in spite of its ugly, old-fashioned appearance, it is one of the most important of all the school traditions. The label has fad- ed until it is unreadable, but because of its popularity we can find it in the dark without even the use of a flash light. It is THE JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET. ln this annual event, the seniors are given o11e of their dearest, most im- pressive, longest remembered, fare- wells from their comrade class, the juniors. All grudges, jealousies, and hatreds are forgotten as the seniors, for the last time, satisfy their appe- tites under the revered colors, the Blue and Gold, as Kearney high school pupils. Though at times, the traditions of the school may seem hidden, unimpor- tant and forgotten, they are the time pieces of the school life. As they are brushed from their resting places into the reckless gayety of school life, and tossed back again, seemingly forgotten they tick the coming and going of the months of the school year. They stand out as the radio-light hour-marks up- on a clock, to be looked upon and remembered in days and years to come. Page 44 A ,,, feb 'X 'fff5'?7'K .

V Student Advisorq Board. liach yn-ur the scvcn pupils in Kear- ney high school who have the highest number of honor points are elected to -thc Student Advisory Board. Honor points are received for partic- ipating in extra-curricular activities. A certain number of points are given for membership in clubs. public ap- pearances. athletics, and work for which no regular school credit is ob- taincd. Extra points are added for extra responsibilities, such as the president of a class. Points may be gained. also, by excellence in regular school work. The board was established to assist the administration in determining the policy toward the pupils. lt is par- tially a hoard of control. The pupils of the school are supposed to bring their suggestions before the faculty through the board. The faculty thus receives the opinion of the students. Wfith the advent of a full extra-cuts ricular actixity program. it became necessary to have a student organiza- tion to assist in planning for the pro- gram. This is a duty of the Student Advisory Board. The board meets weekly with the principal to discuss the problems which have arisen. An- other duty which has fallen to the lot of this organization is that of plan- ning the assemblies. Programs have been planned each week, and the re- sult has been enjoyable, instructive, and novel entertainment. Matters of general importance to the school are taken up by the Student Advisory Board. It assists in caring for matters of discipline and those of similar importance. Members of the board are: Paul Lindberg, presidentg Irene Welsh, sec- retary: Wendell Coon, Armine Lett, Sada Mae Macaulay, Beulah Sitorius, and Van Miller. Mr. Hobson sponsors the organization.

Music hath charms to sooth the savage breastf' but it took a lot of work and patience on the part of Miss :Helen Cherny to get the desired re- sults. The boys, however, seemed more than willing to co-operate with her by coming at eight o'clock in the morn- ing and singing in a room in which a person couldn't see to read. The Boys, Glee Club was organized and the following officers elected: president, Haydn Burfordg vice-presi- dent, Gerald Shaftog secretary-treas- urer, Eugene West. The club made its first public ap- pearance at the Teachers College dur- ing tlie State Teachers' Convention. It appeared before the Rotary club at the Midway hotel, the Hrst of No- vember, and the boys were extended an invitation to entertain the men again. At other times the boys appeared be- fore the assembly, and also in the auditorium one night during Educa- tional Week. February 24-, a mixed choir sang at the Presbyterian church. In all appearances, the club has been received with most cordial apprecia- tion. Two quartets were formed, one of which was composed of Van Miller, first tenor, Jack Wheelock, second tenor, Gerald Shafto, first bassg and Eugene West, second bass.

Girls' Glee Club. Pupils of Kearney high school have become better acquainted this year with what the Cirlsf Glee Club does. The club has practiced and rehearsed regularly under the leadership of Miss Cherny. The glee club has appeared at in- tervals during the year before various organizations in the city. The first real public appearance was made in the Teachers College audi- torium before the meeting of the State Teachers, Association. The girls also sang at a Commercial Club luncheon. The purpose of this appearance was to help to raise money for acquiring an additional room for the Y. W. C. A. At Christmas time the grade school children gave f'The Nativityf' The processional was led by the Girls, Clee Club. The beauty of this scene was enhanced by the white costumes of the girls. Another appearance was made be- fore the Emerson school Parent-Teach- er Association. This appearance was to aid in boosting for the voting of school bonds. Together. the Boys, and Girls, Glee Clubs presented 'fMam,zelle Tapsf' The choruses were good, and especially noticeable were the leading characters, who will perhaps be famous some day for their ability. The glee clubs have pins. They are quite unusual. The pin is a small staff with a KV placed upon it and the initials' K. H. S. engraved on the staff. It is considered an honor to wear a glee club pin. The officers of the Girl's Glee Club are: president, Hazel Panekg vice- president, Beryl Pearsong secretary- treasurer, Ethel Smith. These are very competent officers and have met with approval in all their work. ll4 xl ,,,L?- A W V ffghiplnw X Q- X xs iles i Eg' f'Jf11f1lj'gfZZ!fi4' A b .ijg'i -'ff-.174 3-411: - if ',-- 34g1 ? 1:g.g ' ' ' 4 3 5' AJ VJ Aa N L9 , U N S J 4 f.. -.

Such was the comment of an old band member at one of the football games, one of the many public ap- pearance made by the newly-uniformed High School Band. The band is the pride of the school, as are the football and debating teams, and various or- ganizations of the school, which re- present Kearney high to the outside world. lt is the duty of the band to foster school spirit of a healthy variety, and it is upon such school spirit that other extra-curricular activities thrive. This picture of the band boys theartbreakers, every one of theml re- presents most of the members, who parade in uniform whenever the band 'asteps outf' Even at that, a few lag- gards who dallied too long over their shaving mugs were late for the picture. ln addition to the uniformed members there are no less than twenty-tive boys who rehearse in a Junior Band. Some happy day this Junior Band will at- tain the glory of wearing a blue and gold uniform. When Mr. Gray Sterling was first employed three years ago to supervise the musical interests of Kearney school children, he at once organized the Boys, Clee Club and the High School Band. The band originated with a membership of about twenty. Now there are over sixty members in both junior and senior bands with new ad- ditions every semester. The board of education. realizing the significance of band instruction, purchased several bass horns, which were badly needed. Mr. Sterling has a few instruments which he rents to deserving boys until the parents are persuaded to buy in- struments for them. Instruction on band and orchestral instruments is to be encouraged by this department, and since most of his private lesson time is taken, Mr. Sterling frequently sends his students to various instructors of the city who have specialized on one or two particular instruments. Orchestras. Three years ago the orchestra num- bered eighteen members. Today there are forty-two members and at least fifteen former orchestra players have been graduated in the last three years. Mr. D. J. Lewis started the interest in orchestral work, and Mr. Gray Sterling, who has made this startling increase in membership, declares he is only following the plans of his worthy pre- decessor. After two years of supervising the vocal and instrumental music in the Kearney schools, Mr. Sterling was in- structed by the administration to de- vote all his time to the bands and orchestras because of the special inter- est which had been created. The result of this arrangement has been most satisfactory, and although the enroll- ment in both band and orchestra is increasing steadily, the administration is of the opinion that the next few years will reveal greater strides in this particular field of music instruction. The forty-two members in the or- chestra are divided into two groups for rehearsal of different grades of music. A promotion from the second to the Hrst orchestra is made by lVlr. Ster- ling when a student has proven by his playing ability a reason for transfer. The picture upon the opposite page is of the whole orchestra for rather of those who managed to get up in time for the sittingl and shows the first orchestra on the stage. I lilfll T I 1 fp-V i1ffM?

Greater interest than ever has been in evidence this year in the club. Each monthly meeting has been handled by a special committee. The purpose of the club is to raise professional standards, to be efficient in study and play, to obey the laws of health, and to learn to mingle with others. Many excellent speakers have talked to the club this year. Professor Skin- ner spoke on 6'Essentials of Teaching, Miss Malvina Scott on 'LEducative Seat Workf, Mrs. Powell on uPlay- ground Supervision, Mrs. Grantham on, Normal Training from a Moth- crls Point of Viewf, and Superintend- ent Loomis on '6What a Superintendent Expectsf' Various club members have also taken part in the monthly pro- grams. In November, the active members en- tertained the alumnae who took normal training last year. Some of the girls, who are now teaching, gave interest- ing talks. At the December meeting, the mothers were entertained. An ex- cellent program was given, in which some of the mothers participated. The officers of the club are: presi- dent, Crystal Hall, vice-president, Ella Daakeg secretary-treasurer, Gladys Grantham. These officers have served the club efficiently and have done much to make the club a success. . M Page T5 fpqt 1 .s v A Zfigtu, - 'Kas T g It k' 1 X .L R 5 will r My it iMit!,,AW,'?i Nw . Q ..

The Kearney High School Athletic Association is yet an infant in high school. two years old in fact. its pur- pose is to promote and encourage athletics, and to help defray athletic expenses that would otherwise fall upon the athletes themselves. This year, the association took over the reception and entertainment of the visiting football teams. At the time of the North Platte game, the xisiting coach said that he had never seen a team so royally treated in all his life. This speaks well for the Athletic Associations treatment of out-of-town teams. School spirit was boosted by the Athletic Association. It aroused pep and enthusiasm among the pupils for the games. Pep assemblies were held through the efforts of the association. The association fostered the work of, and paid for the HK men's tickets to the annual football baneluet. The many compliments- on the banquet show the work and care it took to Hput it overf, The big task of the year, and the final climax, was the presentation of the Superba Vaudeville. This perform- ance furnished the way by which the money, needed to defray expenses which the association is called upon to meet, was raised. The entertainment proved, as it did last year. a great success. Proceeds were spent for athlet- ic cuts in the annual and for athletic equipment to be presented to the future Bearcat teams. The officers are: president, Lynn Quiggle: vice-president, Kenneth Wad- leyg committee chairmen, Maurice Snyder, Marjorie Eldred, Irene Welsh, and Mildred Foster.

A charter has been received and a chapter of the National Honor Society for Secondary Schools has been estab- lished in Kearney high school. Ap- proximately two hundred chapters have been established in the leading high schools throughout the United States. To be elected to this society, one must make his mark in leadership, scholarship, character, and service. Only seniors are eligible, and but fif- teen per cent of a graduating class may be elected. The faculty commit- tee selects the members of the chapter. A certain standard for grades is set. The prospective member must stand in the upper quarter of his class. He must have the qualities of a leader, and these must be put to practical use in the school. He must also be able to inspire discipleship, and then to lead his followers in the right way. Character must be positive. One is supposed to know the differ- ence between right and wrong. He must then have the courage to back up his conviction. Service is probably the most important of all. To be of use to onels fellow men is the highest goal one may attain. A pupil must be will- ing to go the second mile. An initiation was held for the seven- teen members of the senior class who were elected to this society. After the initiation, the following officers were elected: president, Doris Meserveyg secretary, Lynn Quiggleg treasurer, Crystal Hall. The other members are: Wendell Coon, Irene Welsh, Venice Mallory, Herbert Staubitz, Wayne Danielson, Clarence Johnson, Florence Browitt, Clara Johnson, Rosie Kirch- ner. Beulah Sitorius, Paul Lindberg. Sada Mae Macaulay, Armine Lett, and Luna Homan. The sponsors are: Mrs. Mabel Scoutt, Mr. Hobson, Mr. Ingram, Miss Augusta Kibler and Miss Parker. 535573 Page 58 ,A V Q A -1 iillllflnu , A . ,,.. 1 X 2 -v ' .

The full name of this organization is the Hi-Y Club of Kearney High School Movement of the Young Menls Christian Association. The purpose of the club, as express- ed in the constitution, is to create, maintain. and extend throughout Kear- ney high school and this community, high standards of Christian character, to promote clean living, clean speech, clean athletics, and clean scholar- ship. To be eligible for membership, a boy must be sixteen years of age, or a member of one of the upper three classes of high school. One who wishes to be a member must apply to the membership committee and be voted in by the club. The object, which is being worked for, is to make this club a club of which it is deemed an honor to be a member, and to show boys that one can be a man without being a ruffian. The club meets on alternate Tuesday eve- nings for a luncheon, Bible study, and a general good time. A set course of study and activity is followed out during the year. Whenever it is pos- sible, a speaker is heard at the meet- ings. Two boys from the junior class were sent to the Older Boys' Confer- ence in Lincoln. The high school thought this meeting important enough to pay their expenses. The charter members are: Homer Morrow, Jess Homan, Van Miller, David Martin, lVIahlon Miller, Wendell Coon, Paul Lindberg, Gift Godfrey, Lynn Quiggle, Earle Smith, Matt Wig- ton, Other members are: Gerald Shaf- to, Jack Wheelock, John Lancaster, Eugene West, Paul Burgert, Harold Wunderwald, Kenneth Wadley, and Cameron Maus.

Another milestone has been passed by the Girl Reserves. Another year of work and fun has been spent. This year, the reserves were divided into two groups, the junior-senior group and the sophomore-freshman group. These groups met on Wednesdaiy and Thursday noons, respectively, of each week. At these meetings, after a de- licious luncheon, the girls enjoyed con- structive programs. The work was planned by the four officers and the chairmen of the committees. The girls have enjoyed many social events this year. At six a. ln. on April 20, the enjoyed the prettiest affairs of girls the year in the form of an Easter Break- fast. The year has not been all play, though. The girls are not selfish. No, indeed. Thanksgiving, each girl gave her share of candy and fruit, which was taken out to the State Hospital. A few days before Christmas, the girls were hostesses to about fifty small children, whom they thought Santa might forget. The girls gave the chilflren a delicious dinner. followed by a tree and treats. February 27, the girls held a cere- niony of initiation. The ceremony used was the Circle of Light, and was very effective. About fourteen girls were taken into the Circle.

The 1923 football season proved a successful one for the Kearney Bear- cats, in that they won two-thirds of their games, playing the hardest schedule the school has ever had. Omaha Central and Lincoln high, two of the strongest teams in the state, were among those on the schedule. Football work started with a foot- ball camp a week before school be- gan in the fall. A general call was issued for football candidates im- mediately after the registration was completed. Over sixty boys responded by appearing in suit. The material was inexperienced, but likely. It was realized that the greatest difficulty would be lack of experience rather than lack of material. With the ex- ception of one man, a new backfield had to be created by Coach Eberhart, which he promptly proceeded to do. Under Assistant Coach Bray, the line soon became a stonewall. The task facing the coaches was the develop- ment of a team from a lot of ugreenl' boys. The Bearcats whipped into the sea- son by defeating Gibbon 26 to 0 in the first game. The second game was played with Lincoln. The cogs of the great football machine had not yet begun to work in unison, and as a result Lincoln was the victor, scoring 27 to Kearneyis 0. The Bearcats succeeded in win- ning over the strong North Platte and Grand Island teams in the next two games. Hastings, however, in the last few minutes of the game with the Cubs, slipped the ball over the line on a long pass, and thus, Kearney was defeated for the second time. The Lexington eleven met its first defeat when it played Kearney, losing by a 6 to 0 score. The Bearcats, with Easterling piloting the backfield and Captain Bowker managing the line, gave Omaha Central the hardest game the Centralites participated in during the 1923 season. In the latter part of the game, Omaha managed to push the ball across for an extra touch- down, and won by a 20 to 13 score. Lincoln was decisively defeated by Omaha later in the season. Gothenburg and Aurora, the last two teams to contend with the Bearcats, were forced to allow their scalps to be hung to Kearneyis trophy belt. The season closed with six games in Kearneyis favor, and three in favor of Bearcat opponents. THE 1923 SEASON.

Seven letter-men will be back to form the frame work of a strong team. The backfield will be very near- ly the same as it was this year. A number of the linemen will again fall into their places to help keep Kear- ncy in its present position in state football, With this splendid material and the two efficient coaches, it is probable that Kearney will be among the foremost teams in the 1924 cham- pionship race.

The promise to send the Bearcats to Lincoln to the State Tournament if they won half their games was fulfilled this year. Kearney, with fifteen other fast teams of the state, was entered in class B. The Clay Center quintet eliminated the Bearcats in their first game. This game completed the best season of basketball that Kearney has had for some time. Though Huber did not receive a letter, he was used at forward much of the time. PROSPECTS FOR 1925. The prospects for 1925 are bright, THE SEASON. Kearney ., .. .... Shelton .. Kearney .... ..

The Reserve team under the coach- ing of Mr. lvan Bray made a splendid record this season. A number of strong teams were on the schedule among which were Grand Island Reserves, Farnam, Aurora, Overton, Pleasanton, and Elm Creek. The Bearkittens played eighteen games of which they won twelve and lost six. At the District Tournament Kearney defeated the College Preps, and Aurora but were eliminated by Farnam.

The wearers of the spikes for Kear- ney niet Grand Island at the first of the season in a dual meet. The final score was 73 to 44 in Grand Island's favor. In the Seven Valleys meet at Callaway, April 24, with only a few Kearney men participating, the Bear- cats were able to annex fourth place. On April 25, the team traveled again to Grand Island to the Grand Island College invitation meet. The Bearcats also took part in the Kearney Teachers 9696 Baseball With seven of last year,s letter men as a nucleus, Coach Eberhart was able to build up a fast, lighting, aggregation of ball players this year. Wunderwald proved to be one of the mainstays of the team with his superior pitching. Minor, with a yearis experi- ence behind the bat, handled most of the catching for the first team during the season. Bowker showed up well on the initial bag, and Wadley was back at his old place on second. Wiley, a reserve man of last year's team, held down the shortstop position. 0. K. Campbell was again stationed at third base where he has performed the past two seasons. In the field, Russell, College invitation meet, held May 3. A representation also went to the state meet in Lincoln. The inter-class track meet was held late in the season.

The Masquers presented an evening of five one-act plays in the high school auditorium ,launary l0, l924. The curtain first rose on uFourteen by Alice Cerstenberg. This play is the story of an anxious and ambitious hostess, Mrs. Pringle lEstelle Louise Butlerl, who has difficulties in find ing fourteen guests for a dinner party. A blizzard rages outside, and the tele- phone rings incessantly with belated regrets. However, everything ends sat- isfactorily, when the Prince of Wales happens in opportunely to fill the four- teenth place at the table. Jess Homan, played the part of the butler, while Sada 'Mae Macaulay took the part of Elaine, the debutante daughter. The second play presented was The Traitorw by Percival Wilde. This dra- matic sketch was well interpreted by a cast of boys. The leading parts were taken by: Wendell Coon, as Colonel Anstruthcr, Homer Morrow, as Cap- tain MacLaurin, Haydn xBurford, as Lieutenant Edwards, and Matt Wig- ton, as Captain Willoughby, who proved to be MThe Traitorf' Other members of the cast were: John Lan- caster, Earle Smith, Paul Lindberg and Lynn Quiggle. The third time the curtain rose it was upon MThe Dream Maker by Blanche Thompson. This play is a fan- tasy, showing how Pierrette became a believer in dreams. Those who took part were: Armine Lett, as Pierrot, Luna Homan, as Pierrette, Sada Mae Macaulay, as the Old Man of the Moon, Anna Macklin, as the Old Woman of the Moon, Hazel Panek, as the Spinner of songs, Ethel Smith and Ena Bowen, as Star Maidens, and Estelle Louise Butler and Beulah Si- torius, as Moon Maidens. The fourth play of the group was Ml-he Man in the Bowler Hatu by A. A. Milne. This is a comedy of the slap-stick variety. All kinds of romantic things happen. At the end, the audi- ence finds it is merely a dress rehears- al. The cast included: Matt Wigton, as The Man in the Bowler Hat, Lynn Quiggle. as John, Ethel Smith, as Mary, Earle Smith, as the Villain, Paul Lindberg, as the Bad Man, Homer Morrow, as the Hero, and Beulah Sitorius, as the Heroine. The fifth play given was an original dramatization by Wendell Coon of Rc-bert Louis Stevenson's 4'Sire de Maletroit's Door. The parts were taken by Matt Wigton, as the Sire, Wendell Coon, as Denis de Beaulieau, Beulah Sitorius as Blanche de Male- troitg and Lynn Quiggle, as the Priest. Superba. Superba, the Kearney High School Athletic Association annual show, made its second annual appearance May 2. The crowd was good, and the acts were popular. Hicktown Village Orkestry, under the direction of F. Gray Sterling, opened with appropriate music. The Faculty Male Quartette, Sterling, Wad- dle, Pinnell, and Nelson, rendered some selections. Featuring Mlle. Armine Lett and Mlle. Mary Lovitt, with an overall chorus, a dancing and singing act made a hit. In a skit, Doris Meser- vey and Marion Lowe scored. The Masquers staged a play in one act, 4'The Beau of Bathf' Kearney high school tumblers pre- sented Harvey Jenkins in a tumbling act. Chemisty magic was given by Mr. W. C. Ingram.

Lion and the Mouse. was staged by the junior class at the high school auditorium, Friday. January 25. The play was very dramatic and was quite heavy for high school pro- duction. but was well presented by the cast. The play is the story of the modern American business magnet, who finds himself entrapped by the cleverness of a pretty American woman. Shirley Hossmore, the leading feminine char- acter. endeavors to save her father who has been falsely accused and disgraced financially and morally. lVlr. Rossmore is a prominent judge, but because he does not adhere to the whims of the big business magnets, he is to be im- peached by the United States Senate. Shirley carries out her plans in a very clever way and succeeds because of her keen feminine wit and striking personality. Uf course. Shirley has a lover, and this fact makes the plot even more perplexing, for her lover is the son of the man who is attempting to cause her father's downfall.

Declamatoru Contest. An unusually interesting declamatory contest was that held in the high school auditorium Tuesday evening, March ll. An elimination contest had been held previous to this time so that only three, selected from each division, composed the program. In the dramatic division Beulah Sitorius took first place. Beulahls read- ing was very pathetic and was given in an appealing way, with good im- personation. Ruby Fleharty won the first place in the humorous division. Her entire selection was in Irish brogue and was handled with remarkable ability. Homer Morrow carried away the laurels in the oratorical contest. These three pupils represented Kear- ney high school at the district contest held April I8 at Broken Bow. The en- tire program of the high school con test was as follows: Dramatic.

Junior-Senior Banquet. Seven short years have passed since Perfection Salad and Wafers the junior and senior classes of Kear- ice Cream Cake ney high school started the custom of Coffee Mints the Junior-Senior Banquet. Since the establishing of this tradition, the juniors have annually entertained the seniors at a dinner given in honor of the latter. This is the occasion when the two classes meet together with dignity, explode illustriously in ora- tory, praise the merits of the classes, and glorify, during this period of warm fellowship, the true school spirit. The delightful Junior-Senior Ban- quet was held May 9, 1924, at the Pres- byterian church at 6:30 o'clock. The banquet hall was decorated in the colors of the two classes, with old rose and silver, representing the juniors, and with blue and white for the senior class predominating. Flowers fairly filled the long tables, and large banks of them placed in conspicuous places gave the appearance of the interior of a flower shop. A delicious feast was served by the Presbyterian ladies, to the hungry ban- queters. The menu consisted of: Fruit Cocktail Creamed Chicken Mashed Potatoes Hot Rolls Scalloped Corn Pickles and Olives Jelly The novelty of the menu lay in individual molds of white ice cream, marked with the blue letters 617' and NSW The idea was new, and it was considered a clever addition to the general color scheme, carried out in honor of the seniors. The toasts of the evening followed the general theme, Our Best Sellersf, lfilizabeth Clark, the Book Salesman, introduced the junior class president, Cameron Maus, who using as his sub- ject, f'As We See lt,', welcomed the seniors. Bob Hamer, president of the senior class, responded with a pleas- ing talk on the subject '4Certain People of importance. The toasts were: MMy Carden of Memoryf' Nellie Sadler 65 77 as in as az' Upstream ,,,,,,..., , Ruby Fleharty Mock Majestyw. ..,,,. ,less Homan Garden of Peril , ,,,,, Homer Morrow The Mind in the Makingn ,,,,,,,,,,,, , ,,,Mr. Ivan Bray llhe Heightsll .. , ,,,,,,,,,,,. ,Earle Smith ln addition to the program of toasts two musical numbers were given. Mildred Burman and Catherine Boyle played a piano duet, and the junior male quartet sang. Girls' Athletic Banquet. The first girls' athletic banquet in the history of Kearney high school was held this year in the home eco- nomics rooms April 29. It was carefully planned and proved a great success. It is hoped that this banquet will be- come an annual affair. Irene Welsh was chairman of the committee which decorated the rooms so attractively. Ruth Sitorius and Katherine Skinner supervised the ticket selling. Following the serving of the de- licious dinner, the toasts were given.

The debating season of the present sf-hool year was a particularly success- ful one il' the results are to be com- pared with those of previous seasons. ln the state league debates in which Kearney high school met Cozad, Elm- ereek, and Lexington. the iinal score was a percentage of nine hundred and fifty. ln the dual debates with Grand Island and Hastings a similar per- centage was made. This year's teams were largely co111- posed of experienced debaters. The af- firmative team consisted of Homer lV!orrow, ,less Homan. and Paul Lind- berg, with Bertha Bowman as alter- nate. This team was undefeated throughout the season. The personnel of the negative team was Clarence Johnson. Matt Wigton. and Robert llamer. with Van Miller as alternate. The sueeess of the debates this year is in no small degree due to the coach, Mr. C. S. Hobson. A coach is not seen i11 the actual conflicts, but his work is exceedingly important. More interest was shown in debat- ing this year than ever before. The school as a whole was enthusiastic and showed interest in tl1e results of the debates. On the whole this season was the most successful season in the an- nals of the high school. The complete schedule and decisions of the debates follow: Hastings. February 2l.

A young couple entered a preacherls study just as he was ready to begin morning worship in the church, and requested him to marry them. ln order not to delay the regular services, he asked them to wait until the conclu- sion of the sermon when he would marry them publicly.

A groceryman in a small town in Jersey had an exhibit of eggs in his show window. One day he removed the eggs and filled the window space with a brood of tiny chickens.
