Ravey, Chairman A E ERICKSON PKINFIPAI R ERNEST DEAR SUFERINTENDENI' FOREWORD At various times in recent years students have asked why our school annual is called tha Hematite Originally the word hematite was used in a school yell and then later it was applied to the yearbook following explanation, written by Mr J B Patrick principal of our high school at one t1me,is reprinted here with the permission of his son, Mr John B Patrick. of Ironwood BAE-M-A-T I T-E BahlBa.hlRa.hlGood.lG0od!G-ood! HEMLTITE IBEMATITE IIRONWOODI When the Ironwood High School yell was chosen several years ago.the selection was most appropriate, for it contains the name of the element which is particularly typical of this mining community, an element which forms the very nucleus of our existence,thatwhichcontributes essentially to our prosperity the rich product of our rugged hills in whose depths it lay hidden for ages HEMATITE Hematite is the most valuable ore of iron The ores mined in Iron- wood and on the Gogebic Range are a soft red hematltecontalning hydrated and some blue steel hematite There is apparently no limit to the supply of this ore,for in recent years the problem of deep iron mining has been mastered mining methods have steadily advanced.powerful modern machinery has supplanted obsolete types and vast bodies of the richest and purest ores in the world have been discovered The name H MATITE is from the Greek word HAIMA meaning nblood,n and was given to the mineral by the ancients from its fanciful resemblance to coagulated blood It crystallizes 1n grapelike and globular masses with beaut1ful radiating fibrous structures and if of a deep brownish red to which is applied the name Red Hematite First discovered in Britain it appears today 1n vast quantities in various parts of the United States notably in Northern Minnesota Goge bic County and the Marquette District in Michigan and in Northern Wis consin are everywhere in evidence in our locality the very soil is teeming with it its deep red color lends a picturesoue element to our landscape it is sufficiently spectacular to attract the attentlon of our visitors who comment with admiration on the 'red dirt,n and if those v1sitors were to arrive upon a rainy day they would be lmpressed wid1the blood red r1vu lets and the gory oools that are everywhere conspicuous The Ironwood High School color was selected topernetuate our native color not cardinal not maroon, not the common red but that color f magnificent lustre which has an individuality of its own and which is peculiar to Red Hematite alone Symbolizing as it does wealth. because of its great intrinsic value beauty because of its rare color health, because of its fancied resemblance to rich red warm heart-blood pulsating with life, harmony. because of its natural blending with the native soil of which it is a component part it is but fitting that our Annual Publication- TB SEMA TITE should bear the name of this important mineral which so lavishly contributes to our welfare n - The Indications of the WBloodstone,nas red hematite is sometimes called.
