Henry, a former principal of Madisonville High School and a member of Kiwanis for almost 65 years, died Saturday at 2:50 p.m. at Regional Medical Cen- ter. He was 94 years old. Henry was born in Muhlen- berg County on June 5, 1892, the son of the late James Rudolph Henry and Mary Easter Isbell. The World War I United States Army veteran moved to Madisonville in 1922, where he became principal of the Madi- sonville High School for 20 years and also became involved in Kiwanis activities. As a Kiwanian, he held the posts of president of the local club, lieutenant governor of the division, Governor of the Ken- tucky-Tennessee District, and rh-lirm-M TntnmnHn� Prof. R. E. Henry A. B. University of Kentucky ” A specimen of munlu pulcritude. a flower to waste its sweetness upon the desert air.” A person endeared to the hearts of all Madisonville students. Always in- terested in all school projects, ready to institute new plans for improve- ment—this is Mr. Henry. Nature has been kind in the bestowal of intellect- ual gifts upon him. Prof. C. I. Henry B. S. Western Kentucky State Normal, Universtiy of Kentucky Of soul sincere, in action faithful, and in honor clear.” The position as Principal serves one of the most important functions in the life of our High School. As coun- selor, guardian ,and a loyal frend he grows in the esteem of patrons, teachers and students. Pape eleven t Miss Mary Madeline Stedd A. B.

Happy be your stay with us, “Madge” —but not too long! “You know what 1 mean.” Miss Mary K. Hichman Hamilton College, Western Kentucky State Normal “ Veni; Vidi; Viri Into the halls of M. H. S. came Miss Hickman in the year 1921. She immediately endeared herself to all the pupils and has maintained this place by her enthusiasm, interest and loyal devotion to all the activities of the school. Her heart is in her work and she concentrates all energy to- ward the betterment of the school. Page twelve if- Miss TKaniel Dozier A. B. Vanderbilt “ A form more fair, a fare more sweet Ne'er hath it been my lot to meet•” We wonder why sunny Tennessee released her hold on this pretty and amiable member of our faculty. Hid she feel “called to tearh” or is she keeping the L. N. busy? Miss Lois Robinson A. B. Western Kentucky State Normal “A stitch in time saves nine.” Our Home Economics’ teacher rec- ognizes that deep down in her heart every girl expects to be mistress of an ideal home. She makes us realize that honor lies in doing well whatev- er we find to do. Paqe irnneen Miss Georgia Morris Wills A. B. Georgetown College “ With malice toward none and charitu for all-” Georgia pursues the even tenor of her way making friends and better still—keeping them. To her efforts the Football men owe their silver footballs and all 12 of them adore “Miss Wills.” Miss Margaret Harbinson A. B. University of Kentucky ” A daafihter of the nods, divinely tall, And most divinely fair-” Duty called her into our midst— this fair daughter of the Blue Gra rs section, where she reigned as queen of the ball rooms.

That appear upon its roll, This Senior Class is the very best For reasons I’ll now unfold. Their determination is a hundred per cent, Their energy unparalleled; They go uncomplaining where’er they’re sent With obedience unexcelled. To the Faculty they are kind also polite, Consideration is their just due, Sometimes they receive some punishment light But what’s a demerit or two ? Tho’ lofty airs they occasionally display When Freshmen hover in sight, They are justified, for, that is to say, ’Tis their undisputed right. A Lyceum course, a debating team, This book which you have read— Are among their projects of which I deem Most worthy things are said. Artists, poets, public speakers, too, Are found within its scope, Writers, debaters, and heartbreakers a few And musicians afire with hope. Athletes also, it does possess, Who wear sweaters with the hard earned letter. Tho’ you search schools from East to W;est You’ll not find any better. So whether it be on Destiny’s Floor, Or upon the Gridiron of Life, These self-same fellows will pile up a score As they buck opposition and strife. And as the years will simply pass One thing I do foresee, T’vvill be impossible to ever surpass The Seniors of ’23. Paye thirty two —A FRIEND OF THE SENIOR CLASS Class History „ Madisonville, Ky., May 15, 1923. Dear ................ We graduated last night and it certainly does seem strange that the class of Twenty-three has passed into history. In your last let- ter you asked me to write you our whole class history so I’ll try my best to tell you everything. One day early in September, nineteen and nineteen, sixty-five of us entered old M. H. S. as Freshmen. We were proud that we had at last entered high school and we were rather inclined to make the fact known. Our Freshman year passed, as most Freshman years do, and then we found ourselves fullfledged Sophs. During our Sophomore year we purchased our purple and white banner and Virginia Far- rant won the Western Kentucky Oratorical Contest, thus bringing honor to our class. In our Junior year we bought our class pins which we wouldn't pa.t with for anything although they do look somewhat like police badges, and then too, we signed for the Redpath lyceum course to be given in our Senior year. At last after long weary days and sleepless nights thirty-eight of us became dignified (?) Seniors, at least Mr. Henry insisted that we should be dignified, and we were now to enjoy Senior privileges tho’ they seemed to somewhat in the negative quantity when we at- tained them. A few «lays after school began we held a class meeting and elect- etl our officers. lone Ashby was chosen president, Sydney Osburn, vice president; Virginia Farrant, secretary and treasurer, and Wil- liam Morton, business manager. We voted to publish an Annual and the staff was elected with Robert Joiner as editor-in-chief. One Wednesday morning in chapel Mr. Gatton announced that the Seniors must begin writing finals and delivering them in chapel. Ve had trembletl ever since Freshman year when we thought of those finals, so you can imagine how we felt when the sentence was imposed. If you’ll excuse the expression finals are what Sherman said war is, but all of our tearful pleas failed to move the stony Pui e thirty three imj. (If.triH Class History Continued hearts of the faculty. Nevertheless all the finals were given and without a single casualty, too. After mid-term exams we began selling lyceum tickets and we certainly did work hard but the faculty helped lots and lone and the class members were trumps and so we went over the top.” We made money on the Annual, too, but we’ve begged so much money and we’ve sold so many things that I honestly believe we could sell ice at the North Pole. We were disappointed that we didn’t get to spend at least a half year in the new high school building, but nevertheless we’ve had lots of fun in the “old ark” which Noah so kindly abandoned in Madisonville, and now that it’s May we’ve forgotten how many times we froze in the Lab and in “Room 8.” Of course its no use to tell you how nice everyone looked at the banquet and we wore caps and gowns for commencement. Now that I’ve told you our class history aren’t you sorry that you were not a member of the class of “twenty three”—the very best class that ever graduated from Madisonville High School? ELEANOR. Love, Class Prophesy Last night I had a dream that may come true, I dreamed the year was Nineteen Forty-two, And one by one came floating through my door My schoolday friends of twenty years before. Miss Eleanor Arnold stood there at my side, A great pianist, famous the world wide. Miss. lone Ashby, looking rather pale, A nurse as great as Florence Nightingale. Fat Bradley Coil, a coal baron was he No longer graceful as he used to be, Though wealth had given him full many a thrill, He always kept his home in Madisonville. A well known beauty specialist came in— Miss Bethel Cavanaugh, with a double chin! And at her side, one Frank Brown, Junior, stood, Looking as efficient as he could For his first million dollars he was clearing By practicing electric engineering. And there, devout as any Baptist preacher, Stood Nimma Orange, a modern language teacher! Another teacher, Miss McLean, I view! Teacher of mathematics at the U. And Otho Tippett an engineer Mechanical and solemn and severe. Miss Korinne Utley was a movie star, Driving her own ten thousand dollar car; And, looking fair as when she was sixteen. Smiled Mary Morton Willis, social queen! And from the mountains had come tripping down A charming matron of most fair renown, Miss Ruby Thomas now was Mrs. Blank With some three million dollars in the bank! Miss Fugate now was Mrs. Mike McGee, A social pet at Washington, D. C. Ruth Shelton had grown brighter, ever brighter, ’T ill all the world acclaimed her as Some Writer! Again 1 saw a friend of long ago When Graden Osburn entered, bowering low, Pat e thirti six Class Prophesy Continued At treating scalps he had become a bear, Thus adding to the world’s supply of hair. A man deserves a fortune, if not more, Who makes two hairs grow where one grew before. And walking proudly by this friend of hair Was Robert Joiner, journalist fat and fair! A social worker in Chicago’s slums, Feeding the little poor kids sugar plums. Was Francis Thomson, tall and stately grown. With seven little kiddies of her own, And while she worked in many a dismal block. Her husband stayed at home and fed her flock! Ruth Strother, brimming over with deep knowledge. Taught Latin yearly at Columbia College. Miss Sidney Osburn—she had never wed, Preferring missionary work instead. She taught the Chinese heathen o’er the foam Rather than have a .heathen boss at home. And Kathleen Oldham, cunning little scamp, Had now become a fascinating vamp! Men from near eighty down to seventeen Were crazy over the divine Kathleen! Carl Pritchett was a contractor so rich He occupied the highest social niche. He had a charming wife and one bright son Who starred at football as his dad had done. Miss Mary Castleberry was a writer On How to Make and Keep Your Friendships Brighter. A dancer in The Follies, graceful, fair, Was Mary Crabtree, famous everywhere! Dorothea Erskine, seeking Fame’s sweet plum, A sort of second Raphael had become. Katherine Stum still at her studies tarried, A kindergarten teacher, quite unmanned. Miss Anna Hatcher mother of five became To prove that there is something in a name! Page thirty seven Class Prophesy Continued Well, Anna’s lot might surely have been worse For Anna always wished to be a nurse. Miss Virginia Farrant, famous for her hair, Became well known at home and everywhere. She’s married now to some distinguished Baron Who saw Miss Farrant’s head had lovely hair on. ’Twas said that one who also thought her dear Was Lambert Morton, great bridge engineer, But Lambert, later on, so folks declare. Will prize Alleen Herron, the Fair. William Dix Morton, Junior, firm of jaw, Had made a world-known name at criminal law. And Kenneth Kington, spick and span of dress, Taught mathematics at old M. H. S. Ruth Crick had wed Lige Bassett and was happy While in their home the cradle held one chappy! Miss Ora Gordon played the social life And later on was Senator Ruby’s wife. Miss Ona Clayton was a great success As principal at good old M. H. S. And Veldon Heltsley had no need to toil For he was President of Standard Oil. And Melvin, his twin brother, they declare Became an occulist known everywhere. Miss Carleen Cavanaugh, on a trip to Rome, Wed Count Von Hoosier and makes Rome her home. Last, but not least, the great name I approach Of Kenneth Ashby, Harvard football coach. My prophecy is over, save for me, But one’s own future one can never see. We have known hopes together, hopes and fears, We have been friends, and shall be through the years. And may each future be as bright As it was painted in my dream last night! — L. A. P.

(s'Sned) THE CLASS OF TWENTY-THREE. Puf e forti t UUl.tll -IS- uLh.ch n?t —H Up Pane forcy one Class Oration Yea, ’tis but the beginning,—the beginning for which we have striven so long. The achievement attained is just the fundamental basis for our tommorow. There has been instilled in us knowledge of the phemonae of life. Gleaning from those around us that ‘'we too, must make our life sublime,” we have been aroused to greater efforts, urged to keep on vith the struggle, that we might be capably equipped to follow in the footsteps of those who have gone before. 1 he days spent pursuing our studies have been profitable and pleasant, the trials and tribulations that have been wrought upon us have but helped as a starlight to guide forth from the rock reefs of failure. ’Tis true we’ve often been in the depths of despair, then again—we have stood on the pinnacle of success as we traveled the pathway of knowledge. Let us hope that as we stand on the threshold to the world of learning, all of us will enter thro’ that wide portal to the realms of unknown realities and explore them to the fullest extent. It is best that when we go out in the world to compete with others of great mental capacity, we go armed with the armor of keen intelligence, with a thorough knowl- edge of what we are undertaking. Let us work hard and believe with the poet:— “You can do whatever you think you can; It’s all in the way you view it, It’s all in the start you make, young man, But you must feel that you’re going to do it.” But with our need for a deep-seated intellect, we must needs have other qualities, the greatest of which is love and kindness to our fellowman. 1 ho it is our duty to try to reach the heights of success, if in our life work, we do not acquire the material wealth we so desire, let us not go afar in search of more than that which we have in hand, lest in our searchings and wanderings for wealth it be our lot the same as is told in this legend of Old India. “Long years ago a farmer in far away India drove the single bullock, that con- stituted the greater part of his worldly goods, down to the stream to drink and as the animal was quenching his thrist, the caravan of a wealthy merchant passed by. Last of all came the merchant, seated upon his elephant, hung with trappings of gold and Pufje forty two Class Oration Continued he paused to mock the poor farmer, “Your bullock will die and your wealth vanish with it,” he said, “See, here in my wallet, secure from death and decay, I carry tne value of thousand such,” and he took from his wallet some glittering gems that made the farmer blink his eyes in their scintillating light. The farmer pleaded for one, but still the merchant mocked him, “Little stones, but each worth the ransom of a village.” Cried the farmer: “Whence came they?” “Far to the West, beside the Great Water,” answered the merchant and went on his way. The poor farmer could not sleep and could not eat for thinking of these little stones, each worth more than a thousand bullocks. So at last, he fared forth, journeying ever toward the West and at last where the pillars of Hercules face the rolling billows of the great ocean, he fell dying empty-handed.” Years later, another, walking beside the stream, stopped where the poor farmer had once watered his bullock and picked up a stone of peculiar hardness and lustre. The merchant who saw it pronounced it of great price, of such supreme value it proved to be, that when the tomb of of the great akbar needed one crowning re- splendant feature, the stone, Kokinor or “the mountain light,” the most famous jewel in the world was mounted on a marble pedestal, to flash its glory.” As we separate, each going in search of our gems, let us strive to make our lives the fullest, best possible.

Every- one was aware of our coming, however, for we made ourselves heard just as we have done ever since, and will continue to do as long as we claim the name of “The Class of ’24.” We have struggled along the narrow and rugged path until at last we are honoring the name of Juniors and numbering forty-four. Our accomplishments are not so few and obscure that one need seek long for them. We have always done our part in everything both good and bad. Our part in athleti s—well to this year’s football team we contributed twelve players. Those being: Soloman, Ashby, Oates, Alexander, Rickard, Trathen, Finley, Franceway, Crawley, Hobgood, Cherry and Gatlin. As for our part in oratory and debating—we will carry off our share of the honors you may be sure. We are especially noted for our talking and our manners. Any one who does not believe we can talk, we refer them to Campbell Finley, one of our star members, and as for proof of our unusual good manners one has only to have a young lady happen around at the sixth period and walk into Mr. R. E. Henry’s famous geometry class to be convinced that we are unsurpassed. We are expecting to be the first class to graduate in the new high school building which is now under construction. We feel that such an event should be held as a rare and sa red honor to the building and all the following classes. That each and every Junior will sufficiently realize the importance of his or her position to return next year and that M. H. S. and all our teachers have all possible success is the wish of the One Class—the Class of ’24. —E. M. B. Page fifty five IUM JUNI0R5 e m eWfc' WMfO qT Paye fifty three Faye fifty seven 3 Sophomore History Farewell, Seniors! Move on, Juniors, make way all for the best class that the best high high school in “the best town on earth” has ever assembled, for this class leads all. Not only does the Sophomore Class of ’23 lead in the line of knowledge, but also it is second to none in athletics. Being introduced properly by initiators’' paddles, the members of this class formally entered high school almost two years ago and at once assumed the role of the class ideal. Although four years looks discouraging to some, especially in an imitation bui’ding like this, all of us set to the task with surprising diligence and a pro- duct of our labors have reached the half-way mark of high school ed- ucation. Fame has already come to the various members of our class along the different lines of their choice and today among those we have with us are famous musicians, silvertongued orators, lightning brained mathmati ians, fleet and agile athletes, skilled domestic sci- entists, last, but not least, er, why don’t you know?—there are some beautiful girls in our class. The Class of 1923 was the luckiest of them all last fall when the teachers were assigned their different groups, for at that time the one and only Miss Margaret Dean Harbison, came to us. It was she who instilled deeply in us the fellowship so well pronounced in the class. She’s a good scout and' would make some “good man’’ a wife. Handicapped in every way by crowded conditions and limited equipment each member of this class has been a factor in keeping M. H. S. rated highest an l classed with the best: Next year with new equipment anti plenty of room Madisonville High School will be in a class by itself. The new building now stands practically com- pleted with a spacious gym, an auditorium and an abundance of room everywhere offers unlimited opportunities. We will not waste them. age fifiu eight Page fifty nine There is one !ine in which this class had a good part that deserves more than passing interest. This is athletics, a thing which has interested this class sime its entrance into Junior High to such an extent that it has had a hand in the destiny of M. H. S. on the grid- iron. In the first year in High School the members of this class made it possible to tie for the State Championship during the regu- lar season. Having lost many of the stars of the year before more of the representatives of the Sophmore Class were given a chance last fall and four of these participated in nearly every game while many others of these proved invaluable in making the season fairly suc- cessful. Waddill, Porter, Edwards and Crow deserve special com- menda.ion for their services. Baseball made its reappearance at Madisonville High School this spring after an absence of several years and Sophomores made up a good part of the succesful team. Next season promises to be a banner year in athlectic activities for the Class of ’22. Waddill, one of our classmates, has been hosen as captain of the football team. We will also have a new gym, this enabling us to put a basket ball team on the field and providing an- other trophy for this class to help win for M. H. S. Puye sixty one Freshmen History Eighty-one is our number, the best class that ever started to M. H. S. Our class is full of enthusiasm and interest. We have mem- bers of all kinds: tall ones, short ones, fat ones and lean ones. What would the football team have done without some of the members of our class? Thank Harold Blanks, Lonnie Patters , n, Conroy Graham, Curtis O’Bannon, Jasper Gentry, James Davis a d others who worked so hard to make M. H. S. have the championship team of the state. Now the baseball season is near anil many of our men are work- ing hard for this team. Some of our members belong to the Glee Club, and their melodi- ous voices are rivals to the night-in-gales. We also have more than our share of pretty girls in M. H. S. We have made a record of which we may be proud in the short time we have been here. We are just beginning our journey with four long milestones to pass, but we have the best teachers that can be offered to start us— Miss Sledd and Miss Dozier. Now that we have started just watch us. We will astound the knowledge of Aritotle and the logic of Plato. Miss Wills to Charles Castleberry: Charles what shape is the the world.

' —By a Senior. Paye sixty four Page sixty five -- Eighth Grade History As I am to record the history of one of the “liveliest” of bunches (Miss Harbison would say that I should have said groups) that ever stormed M. H. S., I'm at a complete loss as to where to begin, in- asmuch as we “have so much splendid material.” All through our school tlays our chief ambition has been to aspire to the “dizzy” heights of the eight grade. We, then West Broadway pupils, with all our ignorance were nevertheless a pride, have struggled to climb each round of the ladder until now we glory in being full-fledged 8th graders, although a few of us have fallen by the wayside and some of the boys did not survive the initiations. As for accomplishments, we take pride in being represented ill Athletics by Clifton Waddill, who has won renown in football. Our other accomplishments are “giggling” and “neatness” and I know our teachers will stand by us in these facts. You will also find that we become justly rebellious when bell No. 2 rings and we have to pick up off the floor, the paper strewn there by the previous oc- cupants of the room. If on some Monday, Wednesday, or Friday, you would peep in the doors of room No. 4 during the third period, you would see us labor- ing away at Spelling. A subject in which we are so carefully train- ed by Miss Hickman. She would like for us to all make a hundred and on the same day at that, and which, I assure you, would be noth- ing short of a miracle. As yet she hasn’t gotten her wish. Me have leceived quite a bit of recognition during our brief stay at M. H. S., for whenever some one is seen running through the hall and Prof. Henry gets hit on the side of the head with a piece of chalk, is not an eighth grader given about a hundred demerits? But despite some of our faults we have a lot of good qualities and some of these days in the “Sweet Bye and Bye” you will look up into our faces and say “who'd a thought it?” E. L. K. Pane sixty six To the Memory of E. Clarence Brown We had a friend in M. H. S., In years that are no more, Whose spirit form is with us yet— Just coming- in the door. The second bell, we’ll say, has rung And school’s begun once more; And, there, we see “E. Clarence Brown”— Just coming in the door. The thoughts of him which now we hold, And shall ’till life is o’er, Are that we see our friend of old— Just coming in the door. And when we hear that trumpet sound, Which means that time’s no more, 1 guess we’ll see “E. Clarence Brown’ Just coming in the door.

Page seventy tiro 1 Faye seventy three Review of Season 22 The football season of ’22 was opened when a call for candidates was made in the second week of school. About 35 men reported and a strenous practice was in order. With the exception of 4 or 5, the material was all green but we have certainly built up a wonderful prospect for a championship team next season. The first game of the season was with Central City whom we defeated 12-0. The game was very spiritless on account of the intense heat. Sturgis came next and one could hardly say that it was a clean victory for them. However, they got the credit for winning 12-6. Louisville Manual came nex't and because of the fact that we tied them last year they were out for blood. You can take it from one who knows—they got it. Our Midgets never gave up though and we pushed them off the field for our lone touchdown—the final count according to Burroughs was 42-6. Providence came here to play one of the prettiest exhibitions of open football ever staged here. The game was full of tricks and passes. We emerged victor 13-0. Mayfield—Pardon me—I mean Red Cochron, their red headed, bowlegged, diminutive quarterback beat us 13-6. Needless to say he was easily the star. We went to Owensboro to play our rottenest game of the yeav. They swamped us 25-0 and thereby evened things up for the stinging defeat administered them in ’21. The line plunging of Thomas was the feature. About one of the hardest fought games ever staged at Grove Park was when Fulton nosed out a victory 6-2. Henderson was lucky—yegods, how lucky they were when they beat us 16-6. They didrt’t know they were on the field, the last half of it was so one-sided. Luck was against us though and we failed to make the necessary goals. You probably wonder why we consider this season a success. There are two main reasons. The major one is the fact that we de- feated Hoptown there 12-6. The second one is because we discovered such wonderful material this year that we are going to wipe out all defects next year. —KENNETH ASHBY Pnije seventy four N c THIS YEARS TEAM Review of Season ’21 Football at old M. H. S started with a rush in ’21—the team was practically intact from the preceding’ year and everybody was in fine shape and rearin’ to go. Ford O’Bryan was elected captain. After about three weeks of strenous training we opened at Providence. They drew first blood but when we got started it was just us. The final count was 12-7. We journeyed to Sturgis to play one of the hardest fought games in the his- tory of football. They had the weight and we the fighting spirit. The game ended with the ball in our possession on their 10 yard line. The game was 0-0. The chesty and muchly feared warriors from Manual came down to do us battle. The game was replete with brilliant runs, ferocious tackling and vicious line plunging but we withstood their attack and emerged on the even end of a 7-7 tie. I he M. H. S. then went to Morganfield to be handed an undesired tie as two un- counted touchdowns were made by Pemberton and O’Bryan. Morganfield was glad to gel off with a tie. I hese Maroon clad boys did what had been left undone in many a year when they conquered the renowned Owensboro clan to the tune of 14-6. Princeton was swamped on Armistice Day in their own back yard 55-0. Hendeison came next anil because of old scores and our unbeatable team they lost 13-0 after a thirlling game. Oh! at last we have reached the game—yes the game of games. If we win this one and lose the rest we consider it a successful season. Hoptown came down on Turkey Day and before one of the largest crowds in our hitory we fought for three quarters trying to get thru their impregnable defense. At the beginning of the fourth period Doodles, yes THE Doodles dropped back to the 40 yard line and placed the drop kick between the standards that won us the Championship of Western Kentucky. —KENNETH ASHBY Pane seven!n six Page seventy seven 1 Football Officials Page seventy eight UHQ5 UHD Pane seventy nine Pa if e eighty ‘3 e t 111 pund Page eighty tone v— Page eighty two The Silver Cups of M. H. S. M. H. S. is proud of her Silver Cups. They are trophies that remain as emblems of the victoiies M. H. S. has won. The smaller cup was won by the Domestic Science department of the High School, two years ago, at Louisville. The other two cups were won by the debating team of ’22 at Lexington. They competed with all High Schools in the Stata. While M. H. S. will retain the smaller cup, the larger will be returned to the winning team of 23. M. H. S. has fond hopes of winning back the cup next year—and the next—and then the cup will be ours. The slogan of our High School is—“Get the silver eu-p, or die trying.” Page eighty three Debating Team of 22 The M. H. S. Debating Team for 1021-1922 sele ted by the High S hool Fac It'-, consisted of Thomas E. Finley, Jr., George W. Hi kman and V. m. Morion, Jr. The coaches, who coached this team were Miss Margaret Stum, English De-:a tment; Prr'. Clarence Clark, Prin ipa! of High School anti Prof. Harper Gatton, Superintende .t of Madi onville Public Schools. 1 he subject for debate was the discussion of U. S. Immigration question. The first debate of M. H. S. was at Marion which was a victory for M. H. S. The next team to be met by M. H. S. was that of Calhoun H. S. who defeated both Henderson and Owensboro. The final debate of this district was held at Calhoun, nd won by M. H. S. To them was presented by the District Chaiiman, the Debating’ Cup as Champion Debaters of District Ten. On May 3rd M. H. S. Debating Team accompanied by two of its teachers and part of the school body journeyed to Lexington, Ky. Here in the Inters, ho'as lie meet under the supervision of the U. of Ky., Extension Dept. M. H. S. team met Ogden Col ege of Bowling Breen, Ky., and Morton-Eiliott College, of Elkton, Ky., in the preliminary debates, winning from both teams by unanimous decisions. M. H. S. met then in the final debate the team of a La Grange H. S. who had won their way to the final debate. The final debate was held in the University Chapel and heard by a large audi'nre. The debate was very heated throughout, but here M. H. S. loomed up a: ain the better team. Thus M. H. S. Debating Team won the title of championship of all the high schools o fthe state. Pai f1 eit hlti four Debating Team of ’23 We are proud of the record made by our debating team in the three years of participation in state debate. In that time we have lost but two debates. No other school in the state has represented this state in the finals twice with a record of first and second place to its credit. The polite bearing and gentlemanly conduct of our representa- tives has always excited favorable comment. Although, in the last debate two of the three judges decided against us, we were really victorious in defeat. Freedom from sar- casm and absence of ridicule is always commendable, and Madison- ville takes special pride in the record of William Morton, Campbell Finley and Ward J. Oates because they can conduct themselves un- der trying circumstances. We have merely loaned the state cup to one of the other schools for the year. In 1924 we will bring it home to stay.

Page ninetg six Faye ninety seven Domestic Science Home Economics in school is not an innovation of today. Some phrase of study has for many years found a place in the cirriculum for girls; beginning perhaps with that of the Colonial girl. For the Colonial kitchen with the great fire-place and the hearth’s “ruddy glow” made an ideal setting for her practical education. As the sands of time shifted we have the Modern girl in the modern setting of today prepar- ing herself for a period of sell support through which she must pass before becoming a home-maker, or assuming a life career. 1 he studies “of this art” has a direct bearing on the most vital things of life, it centers around the home problems and the purpose of right living. The scope of it includes the study of good shelter and clothing viewed from the standpoint of hy- giene, economics and art and a study of the relation of individuals to each other and society. Its greatest aims are to give a more adequate training to the girls for it is the women of all lands that the call comes to maintain the homes of these lands and the upbuild and uplift; and to show them the relationship of the home to national life and progress. For we must remember that the success of the nation of tomorrow de- pends upon the characters built in the homes of today; that no nation rises higher than its home life. To secure the interests and cooperation of our students in acquiring the purposes of this art an endeavor was made to develop their social and outdoor activities are well as the science of the classroom. Excuisions to the different mills and out in the country where the primitive meth- ods of textile manufacture still exist were as enjoyable as instructive. During Christmas holidays a party, a doll and gift bazaar interested the classes very much while a booth kept by the girls of this department at the Agricultural Fair was an undenied success; owing to the splendid team work of the instructor and students. 'I he profit made will help to furnih the department of the new building. For the sincerest aim of our hearts is to be as a real home; to minister unto the needs of the Madisonville High School. —RUTH SHELTON.

Puge one hundred one JOKES A Twongue Twister An illustration of these tongue twisters was told a man who heard another man say in a restaurant when asked what he wanted: Here’s what he said: “Just bring me some coffee and a muttered buffin, no a muffered buffin, buffered mutten, muttled buffern, buffed muttern, butted muffern, no I mean a buttered muffin.” Never go crooked, look where the cork screw has gone. Strange voice over phone: “Pinkie will you marry me?” Pinkie: “Ye-:! Yes! Who is this?” Mrs. Castleberry: “Mary, you surely don’t consider these cur- tains washed?” Miss Castleberry: “Sure, mother, washed them on the outside so we could look out but I left them dirty so people couldn’t look in.” Mrs. Honk: Could you give me a little money? Mr. Honk: Yes dear, about how little? She’s the flower of the family— Then her family doesn’t “Say It With Flowers.” She: Have you ever been pinched for going too fast? It: No, but I’ve been slapped. Some girls will, and some girls wont; Some girls do, and some girls don’t, Others might and possibly would; Several may, and no doubt should— “Wear longer dresses.” Firsht: Do you know Bill Jones?

There’s one question Edison never asked. What’s that. What did Sitting Bull set on Margaret Simpson ran frantically to her mother, holding a dry, pressed leaf, obviously, the lelic of a day long gone by, “I found it in the Bible, mother, do you suppose it was Eve’s ” The drama was in full swing when the hero rushed to the front of the stage and cried, “How, O, How can I bring my proud enemy to his knees.” Instantly a voice from the gallery replied: “Drop down in front of him!” Chink: I’ve got to get my shoes half soled. Ikey: Are they thin? Chink: So thin that I can tell heads or tails on a dime by just stepping on it. Ben Hur: Ben Him: Ben Hur: Prof. R. E. Prof. C. I. Prof. R. E You certainly are a grand dancer!
