THE NEW M. H. S. A meeting of the Board of Education, Wednesday evening, May 10, 1905, decided many important things for the coming year. Supt. George C. von Beseler was re-elected for the year 1905-1900. Miss Lois Ellet, of Cleveland, chosen to fill the vacancy made by the resignation of Miss Ryder. Upon the recommendation of Mr. von Beseler the Madison High School will have a staff of three teachers next year instead of two as has been customary in the past. Miss Elizabeth Solberg, of Salem, Ohio, has been selected for the extra position. Both are graduates of the Woman’s College of Western Reserve. The course of study for 1905 and 1906 will be entirely dif- ferent from the one now being pursued, and will be equal to that of any high school in Ohio. No one need go to Painesville or Geneva to school when they can get the equal at home. It has been carefully arranged by Mr. von Beseler and adopted by the Board. Following is a brief outline : REQUIRED WORK. Algebra, two years. Physics, one year. Geometry—Plane, two years. Civics. Forensics. General History. British Literature. American Literature. Principles of Psychology. ELECTIVE WORK. Latin, four years. German, four years. Greek History. Roman English “ Botany. Music. Mythology and Ancient Geology- Book Keeping. Rhetoric. Geometry—Solid. Chemistry. Astronomy. Business Law. Political Economy. With this course of study and three teachers to do the work, Madison High School should enjoy its Golden Age in 1905. ‘•Now do you understand?” shouted the angry professor as he hurled an ink bottle at the exas- perating pupil. “I think I have an inkling, sir”, the bespattered student replied. We always laugh at teachers jokes No matter how bad they may be ! Not because they are really funny folks, But because it’s policy. The one who thinks our jokes are poor, Would straightway change their their views, Could they compare the jokes we print To those that we refuse. Perhaps these jokes are old, And should be on the shelf; If you can do any better, Send in a few yourself. All kinds of HARNESS both light and heavy. Also all kinds of WHIPS at the Lowest Prices. See our Full Raw Hide Whip at TWENTY-FIVE CENTS. H. C. GILL. WE HANDLE Phosphates, Cement, Building Blocks, Carriages, Wagons, Hardware, And in fact most anything you want. Our motto is “Every man a square deal.” FIRE INSURANCE. J. R. KELLOGG, Madison, Ohio.

Athletics. The summing up of the Athletic doings of M. H. S. for the school year of 1904 and 1905 would not cover a very large space. The school was represented in the fall by a football team of in- ferior quality. The girls also had a sort of basketball team, but played no games. In the spring, as there was not enough material available, we had no baseball nine. Consequently we can give very little space to Athletics. Let us hope that the incoming Freshmen for next year will pro- duce material for our football and baseball teams. Sure It Was A Woman Hello! Exchange, boo-hoo, please give me Air. Hafenout, the undertaker- bo-hoo-Is that you, Air. Undertaker? Oh, our dear little Willie has just gone to heav- en, and boo-hoo-we want you to take change of the remains, boo- hoo-oo. Oh, say, by the way, do you give trading stamps? A small animal to be killed with a pole—the longer the pole the better.—A polecat. Society. Aladison, during the past school year has been very gay in a social isense. Nearty everyone has entertained I in one manner or another, the social circle of M. H. S. Dances, card parties, masquerades, etc., have been given in rapid succes- sion. Among the most enter- taining hostesses were Aliss Alabel Fuller, Evata AVinans, Pearl Rand, Gladys Kimball, Bessie Phelps and Eunice Gilbert. It may also I be noted that the boys were not slow in carrying out their end of the program. Socials have been given by the seniors, and have added to the list. Taken all in all we have had a pleasant year. “The Short Skate.” There are some people in this world who always expect some- thing for nothing. They are willing to receive the benefit of any movement provided the other fellow puts up the cash, but if they have to pay, “No” they sneak to the “tall and uncut” This class of people are no good on earth, and they are not good enough for the other world. So what shall we do with them? There was a man who was very bald Hie pate showed nothing there. He painted rabbits on his head And people thought ’twas hare. “Got a talking machine at home?” “Yes ” “What did 3rou pay for it?” “Nothing, married it.” A CARD OF THANKS. The editors of the Forum wish to thank the students, business men, and citizens of Madison for their help during the publication of the paper. The students supported the paper fairly well, but not so well as they ought to have done. We hope that next year the paper will be continued. If so the stu- dents should all subscribe and make it a success. The business men of Aladison have more than done their share in helping. We have experienced no trouble whatever in getting ads. It shows that they are interested in school life and the students should patron- ize these men. We hope that our work has been done satisfactory to everyone. We have striven to that end and we sincerely hope that we have not en- tirely failed. You are now going on a vacation of nearly three months. Have a time, a fine time, for they are few and far between, but be sure to show up next fall when Air. Smith rings the old school bell, and regis- ter your “John Henry” on the roll book. Good bye,-all. Once more we thank you for your patronage. You Have Be Printed, It To The Review Office. Lowest Prices. Best Work.
