When the two schools were united the classes buried the hatchet and be- gan working side by side to make the 1918 class the best one that ever graduated from M. 8 M. ln this effort we think we have been successful. During our school life our number has var-- ied from year to year. Some have gone away to other schools and several of the young men from our class 'have thrown aside their books and volunteered to fight for their country, but students from other schools have come into our class and helped to fill the vacancies left by those who have gone away. At present the class is composed of thirty-one loyal, ac- tive members, eleven being from McConne1s- ville, five from Malta and fifteen from the surrounding country. We have always been noted for our activ- ities, socially. Each succeeding year has seen us mount higher and higher the ladder of so- cial fame. The many pleasant auto and sleigh rides which we have enjoyed, the trips to country homes where never-to-be-forgotten parties were given, the many lavish spreads enjoyed in the hospitable homes of our town members, have all contributed to the achievements of the class of 1918. Another thing which is a source of pride to us is the prominent part which our members have taken in athletics. Ever since its begin- ning the class has been well represented in the various athletic activities of the school and every victory won has been due, in some meas- ure, to the excellent playing of worthy mem- bers of this class. Under the leadership of a Senior captain and with Seniors in the squad, the basket ball team for this year'has shown that it can compare very favorably with teams from much larger schools. As for our musical ability, nearly all of our members have at some time appeared before the public in musical entertainments. Each year the Girls' Glee Club is indebted to the class for some of its best singers. The High School Quartet is also composed of Seniors. The girls have shown their spirit and ability in many ways. On the basket ball floor they make goals with as much facility as they do music in the Glee Club. They have shown that they are accomplished in the domestic arts. For confirmation of this we have but to remember the excellent refreshments which were seiyed at the class spreads and to gaze on the service flag which hangs in the assembly room-all the work of fair Senior girls' hands. While we have been in school we have looked forward to thetime when we should graduate and go out into the world. Now, since that time has come, we go forth with the fondest of memories in our hearts for the old school where we have spent so many happy hours, and with a determination to make our lives an honor to the Malta-McConnelsville High School.

E o E-4 Earl Tavenner rie :S Lv-I E IOR CLASS PROPHECY And it came to pass, that I was sitting by the peaceful waters of the Blue Muskingum, musing over the many happy days spent at Mt. Airy and grieving over the thought that these days are so soon to be brought to a close, a great storm arose. Winds blew in great gusts from the north, the sky grew black al- most unto night, and I was so sorely fright- ened that I sank down in dismay. As my knees gave way, I was entirely enveloped in a black cloud, and a voice like that of Prof. Taylor, when he announces the result of final exams, cried unto me: Go ye up into Mc- Connelsville and make known unto your class-- mates the fate that is to befall them in the days to come, and spare no one. I obeyed the call, and this is the vision as it was re- vealed unto me. 1: a: :- I stood in the midst of a great assembly of men and women in front of the main High School building in McConnelsville in the year of Our Lord, 2018. As I was about to ask someone what was the meaning of this con- vention, a man whom I recognized as my old friend, Paul VVells, mounted the steps and be- gan speaking in a loud voice. , Classmates, I am indeed proud when I think that it was through my humble efforts dressed woman in Americaf' and was an art- that we have gathered here today. This greatly surprised me, for in our high school days Paul was not particularly noted for his oratory or class spirit, either. But when I asked the girl beside me, in nurse's costume, whom I recognized as Nellie Best, by her curly. hair, to explain the affair, she told me that Paul VVells, the great chemist, had discovered an elixir of life, which he had given to all his old friends, thus enabling them to cel- ebrate the Iooth annual reunion of the class of 'I8. This wonderful elixir had the power of making one live forever. ' Desiring more information about our glor- ious class, I approached Ethel Mills and Lucille Smith, whom I learned were reported for The Town Gossip, a woman's suffrage paper, ed- ited by Dania Fall. Gus Kennard was also a reporter and photographer for this paper. Ethel and Lucille were discussing the won- derful success Herbert Harris had made in his career as a civil engineer. He had just re- cently completed the building of a bridge across the Atlantic. Theyalso told me that Floyd Mclnturf had a large chicken farm near Pennsville, Ohio. I was just going to inquire concerning some more of my old friends, when a great con- fusion and cheering arose from the crowd, and turning around, I was just in time to see For- rest Parmiter land at the curb in his Ford air- plane. Forrest hailed from Muttenburg and reported that the potato crop out that way was remarkably good, as he had discovered a Sure Death Sprayer for potato bugs. Seeing Forest Newsom on the opposite side of the crowd, I made my way to her side. She told me that she was now matron in a girls' seminary in the east, and that George IVolfram was athletic director in the same school. As a result of his wonderful coaching, their girls' basket ball team held the world's champion- ship. 'Just then Edsel Miller, appeared on the scene and announced through a megaphone that a matinee performance was about to be- gin at Miller's theater, in the former Opera House building, and that if we would consent he would be delighted to have us all as his guests, as he was manager of the theater. Of course, we all gladly accepted his invi- tation, and in high glee, made our way show- wardf' VVhen we arrived we found that the first act had not ,yet commenced, so we had time to rubber around a little and see who were there. Hester Taylor was sitting behind me, looking as sweet and charming as ever. Margaret Cunningham, sitting at my side, told me that Hester was running a kindergarten- a priva-te institution. Margaret, herself, was a teacher of elocution in an Eastern college. Carol Blackburn, seeing me, crossed the aisle to speak to me. She was now a court stenog- rapher, and told me confidentially that Flor- ence Gatewood, the famous cartoonist, had been arrested that morning for speeding up Main street at the rate of fifteen miles an hour 3 thel speed limit being ten miles. Florence al- ways was pretty fast ?j. Ferne Walpole told me that she was now SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY CONCLUDED head bookkeeper with an oil company in San- toy, Ohio. ' just as I was wondering where Bob, Rich- ard, Leah and Berenice could be, the curtain went up, and on the bulletin board, the an- nouncement was, that the first number would be Original Dances by the second Irene and Vernon Castle? 1 was delighted, but in no way surprised, when they appeared, and we found them to be Leah Ball and Richard Mc- Elhiney, who were the originators of The Curbstone Hop, the popular dance of the day. The next number was a comedy sketch by Berenice Kirby and Bob Durbin, in which Bob was a lightning change artist. He imper- sonated everything from a printer's devil to a dignified Senior class president. Berenice seemed to be under the impression that she could sing, but we all left before she had 'rin- ished her solo-all except Gerald Dunnington, who sat listening as if entranced. Byron Dick- inson whispered to me that we should make Jud come with us, as it would ruin his repu- tation to be seen at a show, as he was touring the country, lecturing and warning the young men of the evils of cigarette smoking. I nearly fainted at this, but they got me to the air as soon as possible, and gave me a whiff of smelling salts. s On our way to a confectionery store Byron told me that he was now a doctor, practicing in Chicago. I inquired from him concerning Mary Johnson, and learned that she was teach- ing Latin in dear old Mt. Airy, and was said to be a second Mrs. Button. ' On arriving at the large candy and ice cream store we found it under the management of Nellie Richardson, who even in school days al- ways had a sweet tooth. y 'l ' XVhile we were all drinking ice cream sodas the B. 81 O. train arrived, bringing with it Pearl Van Horne, who came over from the train in a hack driven by Ivan McKitriclc, who was in the employ of the Kennebec hotel. Pearl had come all .the way from New York to be present at our 1'eunion, and had cancelled a week's engagement, which would mean thou- sands to her. She was known as the best dressed woman in America, and was an art- ist's and style shows' model. This now accounted for all the members of our very versatilei' class, as UF. J. used to call us, except three 'or four. Nellie pro- duced some back numbers of The Town Gos- sip and, turning to the personal column, we read- 1- S l ' 'Ruth,Link was with a comic opera company in New York City, g h Merle Tavenner was a domestic science teacher at Ohio S-tate University. . Turning to the Home Section, we found that Annie Wlells was editing the column, Ad- vice to the Love-lorn, .under the non de plume of Lx-:tty Hairfaxf' y ' I ' It then being pretty late, the crowd soon dis- persed. I made my way homeward. Having made a fortune at school-teaching, I was living a retired life with Maydell Alderman, a for- mer member' of our class, in our palatial home, The Old ,Maidery, upon I-Iart's,Point. p ' . -Josephine Birch. lu Ill 9 MIQIXV 'IT QL if 3' e 'H I' L J . -' v ,v, K :gt X SNAPLF SHOTS I n 4 2 . : EDITORIALS 5' : PATRIOTISM IN THE HIGH SCHOOL At this period in the history of the-world, when- practically all the nations of the earth are engaged in a world-wide conflict for the suppression of militarism and for the recogni- tion of the rights of humanity, the hearts of the American people are stirred as never be- fore with a feeling of patriotism. Especially has this feeling of love and pride for their country been aroused among the school chil- dren. IfVhen war was declared by the United States against Germany and German atroci- ties, six young men of the M. Sz M. High School responded to the call to arms and en- listed in the defense of their country. Later, as the call became more urgent, others re- sponded to the colors, until at present the stu- dents and graduates of Mt. Airy, who have given up their homes and ambitions and have offered their lives for the making of the world safe for democracy, form a total of twenty. Those, however, who are left behind are alike imbued with a spirit of patriotism. Each student feels that, although it is not possible for everyone to go to the front and ight, there are many things which each one can do, and that patriotism can be shown in more ways than one. ' A Junior Red Cross was organized in the High School, and every pupil became a mem- ber of the organization. The work which has been done has been worth while. Much real good has been accomplished in the way of knitting, sewing and in making scrap books. Besides the work in the Junior Red Cross, a Wfar Savings Society has been organized. The students of the High School have given it their hearty support and are saving their money, hitherto uselessly spent, for invest- ment in VVar Savings Stamps. Thus in many different ways the students of the M. Sz M. High School are showing their patriotism and are cheerfully and en- thusiastically doing their bitfl THE NEYN M. Sz M. HIGH SCHOOL XV ith the modern progressive movements, education takes on a new meaning. NV here it formerly meant culture and refinement, it now means power and efficiency. It is a well recognized fact today that a good education is very necessary for future success. To be- come a successful business man, a lawyer, a doctor, or, indeed, to be successful in any pro- fession, one must be well adapted to his chosen work, and he must be highly efficient, vor, in other words, 'he must have received an education that develops and trains his natural powers and abilities. The people are realizing, as never before. the value of a High School education. The mental training, the discipline, the daily as- sociation with teachers and others who have high ideals work a marvelous change in the boys and girls who throng the Freshman class and later graduate with honor. I To better accommodate the increased num- ber of those seeking High School education, the two towns-Malta and lXfIcConnelsville- are erecting a new building for the M. St M. High School. This building is to be equipped according to modern ideas, and will be looked upon with pride in the future. Although the class of 11918 will not enjoy the privilege of attending school in the new building, they are glad that the future classes will have that privilege. They realize that a better equipped building means more efficient work and a better preparation for life's work. -Mary johnson.

By Company M leaving, the Armory was left vacant. Through the kindness of Mr. Shafer, who had charge of it, the basket ball team had the exclusive use of the basket ball floor. M. Sz M. was fortunate in getting Mr. Harry McLucas as coach. Through his coach- ing and interest in the team a winning team was turned out. The first game of the season was played at home, January 4, with Roseville. M. Sz M. won, 27 to 11. This was the first victory with 1 a visiting team in the history of the School. The two most important games this year were with Marietta and Newark. For two years M. Sz M. have played these teams, and each time have been badly defeated. O11 Feb- ruary 8 we played Newark. The M. Sz M. team was handicapped by one of the regular players being sick, but nevertheless they play- ed a fine game and were only defeated by live points, score 35 to 30. , The Marietta game, March 1, was the fast- est and hardest fought contest ever played here. At the end of the Second half the score was tied-14 to 14. An extra five minutes was played and M. Sz M. succeeded i11 making one point, thus winning the game.

Floyd breaks a long silence, thus: VVhat would you say if I should throw a kiss at you?,' Annie-- I'cl say you were awfully lazy. A Persistent Fly , A certain naval officer is opposed to the tat- tooing habit so prevalent among sailors, and in an address said: I want to tell you boys a story. A young lieutenant was invited to dine one evening with the gnnner's mess of a sister ship. He sat opposite a bald-headed major and just as he finished his soup he noticed a fly on the major's head. The lieutenant's attention was so absorbed by the fly that he lost trend of table talk. He wondered why the insect didn't fly. VVhy didn't the major notice it? Couldnlt he do something to scare it off ? He sneezed very loudly. He coughed. and flourished his napkin. near the major's head. But the fly still retained its calm and motionless pose on the major's polished white dome. The fish course came and went: the roast came and went. Still the fly stuck. The young lieutenant could stand it no longer, so he coughed and said: f'Excuse me. major, but you've had a fly on- top of your head ever since dinner began. I've been trying to frighten it away, but it won't gO.9! The major reddened with rage., then the roared: The fact is, young fellow, when I was your age I was as big a fool as you are. That fly is tattooed. Some time ago a dinner was given in New York, at which a well-known actor who is something of a free-thinker along theological lines, sat at a gnestis table. Vlfhen the hour for starting the feast arrived, the toastmaster, a very religious man. discovered that no min- ister of the Gospel was present, though sev- eral had been invited. In this emergency he turned to the actor and asked him to say grace. The actor rose, bowed his head, and in the midst of a deep hush, said, fervently: There being no clergyman present, let us thank God.

ZEXIQMDWEXIU The Alumni in Malta was organized in 1886 to cherish the memories of school lifef' Graduates of Malta High School are filling po- sitions of responsibility all over the United States, and forty-one of these are in the ser- vice of their country. The McConnelsville Alumni was organized in 1856. Many names well known to the world are found on its roll book, and many of its members are to be found in the army camps in the United States and in France. In 1915 the Malta and McConnelsville High Schools ceased to exist, and a new one, M. ck M. High School, was formed in their stead. M. Sz M. has proved a great success, and her fame is assured. In 1917 the Alumni Associations of Malta and McConnelsville were united. with Mrs. Blanche Sears, president: Harry McLucas, Treasurer, and Margaret Rogers, Secretary. F. M. SHEETS, Janitor APPRECIATION The Unonian staff feel that without the as-' sistance which the niemliers of the class and faculty have given and without the loyal sup' port of the High School asa whole, this vol- ure of the Unonian would have been impos- sible.

C. is large enough and has sufficient equipment and faculty to do the highest grade of work in all courses taught. She is small enough, however, that classes are all moderate in size and the student thus comes in for a large amount of individual instruction.

Both Pitman and Gregg Shorthand are taught in the Stenographic Department, and Roxve's Bookkeeping and Accountancy in the Commercial Department.
