The early settlers had been here less than a year when they made their first. preparations for a school, knowing that an education was the best estate they could leave to their children. In the winter of 1347 the First ses- sion of school was held. There was no school-house, but the home of one of the citizens was used for the purpose. The following spring' saw a small school- house under construction at the present site of the Chas. l-iuedebuseh t'o.'s store. ln the year 1348 Yviseonsin assumed new responsibilities as a state. .Xt the same time the schools of Mayville un- derwent. a change, passing from a more primitive form to one which was at that time considered modern. The 'Foster brothers at that time donated to the city a tract of land, which is now known -as Foster Park, for the purpose ot build- ing a school-house. As a result, a struc- ture was erected, consisting of four rooms, and being two stories in height. The new building' enabled new studies to be established and also more teachers to be hired. Three new departments were established, and with them came the studies of Tlistory and Geometry. Cwe. have often wondered whether the fathers of the school knew what an un- popular study they were llli1'0flllCillQ'.IJ .Xfter the Civil War the foreigners came to this city in great numbers. They were mostly Germans, a tliriftlv and industrious class of people who, al- most immediately upon their arrival, took a deep and active interest in the affairs of the school. 4 Due to the increase in the population, a still larger school was demanded, and in N57 a new addition was made to the old structure which gave it the present resemblance to a eourt-house.

The bell bears the name of the donor and the date of its donation: F. Sherin, 1857. .In 1880 the present High School was established with a three-year course. The first principal was J. M. Turner. His successors were as follows: Horace Gibson, J. H. Martin, L. S.4Keeley, M. A. Bussewitz, L. S. Keeley, and R. D. Owen, our present principal. xml The advancement of the Mayville schools has been one of great rapidityg the following studies have been added to the course of study: Music, Draw- ing, Domestic Science, Teachers Train- ing Course, and last of all, a Commer- cial course. Graduates of this school can be found among the best people of the nation, and only the best. people shall our school continue to give to the country and to humanity. ll l , QW WZ7, ' as , 7 ?J.fJQ4i-2 h' ..q-'.l- , tp-r ',5 -f -3.

Hillen was 21 niember of our class from the first grade until the Sophomore year in H igh School. She was always one of our brightest and best liked classmates. Vllhen she flied afteifan operation for appendicitis I at the close of the Sophomore school year, our class suffered a severe loss. It was hard to realize that she would not return to school with us, as usual after the sunnner vacation. Xow at this time of our graduation, we wish to honor her memory. T H E R O C K E T Page Seventeen MEMORIES T T OF THE CLASS OF 1920 l our years ago, we were the Freshman class That gathered in the dear old Mayville High. Forty-five we then numbered, laddie and lass, Most of us so timid-bashfnl and shy. As the years roll on, we'll review the past And think of the many good times we had. Often we'll wish the time hadnlt gone so fast, lint we have this Book, why should we be sad? O, could we but. view onee more the plastered wall That shows many marks and many a line, And wander thru the corridors and call Upon companions as in by-gone time. Could we but haunt the spots of days of yore ll'hen hand in hand with happiness we strolled, And view again the nnforgotten lore, Full many a seeret yet would We unfold. If the river my footsteps should invite, And on the footbridge li would end my Walk, Would there a happy couple greet my sight, Fair Thelma and Carl engaged in earnest talk? Could I but climb the steps to Turner Hall, ll d find that old place empty and bare. These days would never be like those at all, F or Bill and Tlma go no longer there. Clould IS but enter llauerls Drug Store And sit down to eat my cream without a fear. lid think my senses quite gone or more If .lim and Eugenia did not work here. Clould T but board the dear old 4'dinky car And go to Brownsville as in days of yore. l'd find that l was late-too late by far, For lslarold Mefdarty left years before. And so in after years, welll all recall In the self-same way as I've just done, The past good times-our classmates one and all And thereby help us in lJife's race to -run. Anonymous.

Who was it that made our Mayville shine, ln Base and also Basket ball? Wasn't it the Juniors who broke the lines To make the scores reach the highest points.

Pike, our coach, friend, and teacher, surely deserves more than these few lines in behalf of his coaching of the team of 1919-1920. The success of the team was wholly dependent upon him. His plays and signals baffled our op-ponents at all times. It was his encourage- ment between halves that brot us back on the floor twice as strong as before. Those who knew him, not only as a coach, but as a friend, need only think of him as a true friend. His friendship will never drift from the hearts of the team of 1919-1920. WALTER SCHUMAN, f'Schuey -- Left Forward The flashy and clever little captain proved to be the greatest point-maker of the team. Sehuey played a wonderful game of basketball and the school is mighty fortunate to have him coming back. As captain, he guided the team with a cool head and was responsible for the excellent team-work. YOUNGBECK, 'cflhunkil - Right Eorward 'fChunk , heavy, fast and powerful, could always be found in the thick of a game. Being an accurate shot -and a fast iioor man, makes Chunk,' an invaluable man on the team.. He is with us again next vcar and we are 1, . looking forward to some real class. RUEDEBUSCH, NCarp'l, '4Sliml', 4'l.cgs,' - Center Carp,, held the pivot position thruout the entire season and very capably at- that. Altho Carp,' was 'a new man, he developed in an amazing style and turned out to be a consistent point-maker. He out-jumped all of his op- ponents, thanks to his long legs. Vile are sorry that he will not be with ns next year. I ll E R O C' K E T Page Twenty-sev 9 1? Xl PTIONSE REDAISKE, 'HXlly - Right Guard NAlly is slippery, fast and clever. Many were the vic- tims of his ducking and dodging. Many a game would have been lost. if it hadnlt been for this Hashy guard. H.Xlly', was a uew mau, but proved to be a match for auy opponent. 'lie will be back next year. TERNOX BRTTDER, '4Jim - Left Guard Nothing ever got by Jin1'l. He was all over the floor and worried his opponents every minute. Not only was he a clever guard,' but a sure shot from almost any position on the floor. 'iflinil' is coming back and we hope hc will play the same style of game next season. HAROLD SCHUKNECHT, Jazz - Sub. A new man in the making. He is bound for the pivot- position next year and his accurate long shots will be a great asset to the team. f'Jazz , everything depends upon you for next year. -e TER NABER, Wally - Sub. A veritable wall of beef and muscle that struck terror to the hearts of our opponents. His presence upon the floor was a valuable asset. Nlllallyv leaves this year. L , Page Twenty-eight T H E R 0 C K E T The Trip The day Hnally arrived when the Basket-Ball Team was scheduled to play one of those 'fhard gamesfl Randolph was supposed to have ia very good team. The trip over to Randolph was not very exciting, many of the players fell asleep. The excitement started when we arrived at the large town of Ran- dolph. As usual there was nobody to meet us, so we sought our way up to the High School. Here we were treated with a little more respect, wc were taken around the school, and we were invited to visit their classes. In the Junior English Class, Nvalter Schu- mann lost his heart due to the fact that he sat behind one of those good look- ing ones, so he claims. After supper we were taken to the basket-ball hall, which was in the gym of the high school, and we were told to get ready for thc game. At this mo- ment, l think, our boys threw off their friendly feeling for our hosts -and made up their minds that they would defeat Randolph. Even lValter had no time to look for the f'Wonderful Girlv he had met just a few hours before. XVe had to wait until the girls of the high school had played their slow and imexciting game of basket-ball. The girls' game, tho lasting only twenty minutes, seemed like twenty years to us, because by this time we were pretty anxious to get into the game. At last the whistle blew for our game to start. The first half was mostly floor-work, and rough floor-work at that. The score at the end of the first half was Randolph 4, Mayville 'ISO Randolph Between halves we decided to play the game a little harder and hit just as hard as Randolph had been hitting in the first half. The second half started with our de- termination thoroly fixed in mind, and it worked pretty good, too. The battle was getting thicker and hotter, when we saw our fast little guard NJin1,' ly- ing o11 the floor. Upon examining him we found his aw was dislocated. With the assistance of Mr. Pike, HzTl1'1'1,S,, jaw was quickly doetored up -and the game started with its usual speed. We soonfound out that we had them out- elassed in every way. XVe doubled our score, and Randolph made one free throw. The big game was over with a score of Mayville 10, Randolph After the game we were treated 'fRoyally,' by the students of the Ran- dolph High School, a banquet being given in our honor by the Domestic Science Department. 'fThanks to the girls rt The hour finally came when we had eaten everything in sight, and we were taken by the Randolph boys to their own homes. Rut. som.e of our boys de- cided that they could sleep better in a hotel than in a private home. It was due to this fact that HJ-azz took an aw- ful fall down the steps, causing much disturbance in the hotel. Finally we were settled in our rooms and had a good night's sleep. We felt as if we were being ill-treated when we were awake-ned at six o'clock the next morn- ing to catch our train. THE ROCKET Page Tfwemfy-nine Some Games With I-Ioricon .Xfter several attempts to get a game with Horicon, we at last got one on a Saturday night. A large crowd at- tended and expected to see a good game, many expecting to see our team again defeated. They were most unfortu- nately disappointed or surprised. The game started with a snap, each team excited and anxious to score. llori- eon succeeded in rolling in the first basket. Than we received a free throw. The score now stood 2-1 for a while, but .-our boys soon came to and succeeded in scoring a few more baskets. The game thruout was rough, our team having 8 personal fouls and Horicon 5. The game seemed short but sure interesting, our boys staying in the lead thruout. The linal score was 20-10 in our favor. Two weeks following this' game we started for the return of the game. Leaving in bobs on a cold and stormy night we reached there cold and numb. The game started late due to the late trains. Here Horicon again succeeded in getting the first. basket but without results. lVe soon were ahead, and the game thruout was rough on the part of both teams. At the end of the first half we stood ahead 9-3. The second half we stalled around the first ten min- utes and finally succeeded in rolling in a few more points. At times Horicon would show signs of improvement- but Finally fell down, after our boys got started. The final score was 17-T. Athletic Organized athletics was what we needed, everybody saw that, so a meet- ing was called and a Constitution drawn up. This was adopted at a later meet- ing and the officers were then elected. Association The Association proved its success by the way in which it met the financial problem. And it also helped to put the school behind our athletics. President, Harold McCarty.

This last year a girls' club, as the name '43 8 gel, indicates, was organized because of economic necessity. Many may wonder what this economic neces- sity could possibly be. No High School expects its athletic enterprises, such as basketball and baseball to be self-sus taining. As a result of this the girls of our High School wished to do their share by 'thelping the boys. The unexpected feature of the S 8 gb Club was changed from helping the boys to that expressed in the following quotation: awe want the money for our own athletics next year. The boys get everything they want, but we get nothing. Besides, they won't help us next year when We have a basket-ball team. Consequently the name was TVires.'i In addition to the above purpose, the intention of the Live XVires is to secure personal profit- and promote school spirit. The former may be obtained by appearing before the schoolmates to de- liver some number on the program. Also we intend to overcome self-con seiousness and cultivate instantaneous speech in parliamentary practice. This was a number on the program at every meeting we have held. lt sliould be the endeavor of every high school girl and teacher to make the t'l.ive TVire Clubv a success for both the school and its members. Why not make this club an immortal p-art of the school and look back upon it as one of the im- portant, successful and educational en- terprises ot the school 3 Page Tl1 1'rly-two T H F R O C K F T E IRLS' B SEB LL Q L1 2 5 Z CD E Z Z L: A 1 EC -1 3' .L .L S E :L :- '71 - o Q 3 I-J f 5 w ' 5 E I , U , H - 5 C E E A - -4 rf- n r: E 1? c we F- E Em it :-4 o ggi' M V M H - We m :1 .

St. John, for eleven years prin- cipal of our public school, resigned his position, it was decided that under the new principal Mayville was to have a High School. The new management and the new principal were greeted with a great deal of enthusiasm, and, T well remember with what surprise EI viewed, on the morning of that opening day in Sep- tember, the well filled schoolroom. and the eager and smiling faces of many former classmates who had during the last year or two Hquit school for good. Under the old regime the head depart- ment had dwindled to a mere handful of scholars, and, as is often the case when the same management is too long continued, everything about the school had been moving along in a rather drowsy fashion, so a change was wel- comed with all sorts of pleasant anti- cipations. New life soon manifested it- self in the school. A graduating class of the most advanced pupils was organ- ized to be finished off in the next two years. I ln the light of present-day standards our High School may have been a some- what primitive aifair, but we all studied hard and learned a great many things under the able leadership of our new principal, a University man by the name of J. M. Turner, popularly known as f'.Toe. A sociable man was Mr. Turner and a m-an with a alot of pepf' Magic lantern Shows were his hobby, and our town as well as the smaller places in our vicinity were .treated to the then novel diversion of witnessing an exhibition of pictures flashed on a screen. At home, with scholars alld teachers, he was always getting up some soci-al affair, which fact called forth many a frown on the brow of the more conservative element of the town. Our class started out with a goodly number, but, sad to relate, many fainted by the wayside from one cause or an- other, and only three of us reached the ultimate goal. Among those who dropped out of the class only 'a few months prior to our graduation was one Albert Gehm, a brilliant young German, who started in the primary department with no knowl- edge of the English language and only a very limited education gained in the old country, and made the gradesv in one year. Another of our classmates who could not see that it would pay to graduate, was Paul O. Husting, our late esteemed senator. The valedicto- rian of our class, Rudolf Sauerherring, now instructor at Purdue University, was the only one of our number who continued the pursuit of knowledge at colleges here and abroad. That first commencement was an event of its kind with all the old- fashioned t1'immings and fixings. There were no restrictions on the length of essays, the numbers on the program, or the lace and ribbons to be worn. Public programs were not so common in those days that there was danger of wearying the audience with too elaborate a dis- play, -and so impressive was the flow of oratory from the lips of the three main THE ROCKET Page Thirty-yfwe actors that many of the fond parents ex- pressed regret at having cut short the son's or daughter's educational career and thereby having prevented them from coming in on this honor and glory. T ho the earmarks of the High School graduate are not so pronounced as to make him or her an outstanding feature in society, still it fills me with a cer- tain amount of pride when I am an- nually reminded of the fact that I am a member of the Mayville High School Alumni Association, Class of '83, Emma Garling A Zbert. CLASS OE 1889 The class of '89 that had dwindled down to the following five in the Senior year: Etta Reible, Louis Bachhuber. Clara Paustian, Anna Naber and Iieo Husting, went thru High School under two principals, the active, progressive QI. W. Turner and the conscientious, hard-working H. L. Gibson. In the spring of '88 a number of High School boys played truant and went out to Clark's woods to drink maple sap. When Principal Gibson, who at the time was instructor of all the classes, found out where the boys were that afternoon, a lecture on the bad effects of spring fever followed, and those present trembled at the thought of the punishment in store for the boys when they should come back to school. But they never came back 5 so the school was minus some excellent students who regretted their folly ever afterward. Mr. Gibson believed in trying to make his scholars work as hard as he did him- self. We were required to spend one hour in study at home every evening and two hours from Saturday to Mon- day and to bring in a written report, signed by our parents, on our work each month. How often Mr. Gibson recited that little quotation to us: Lost, some- where between sunrise and sunset, two golden hours-each set in with sixty di-amond minutes. No reward is offered, for they are lost forever l The most interesting part of our High School life was spent one hour daily in the class-room of Dr. G. H. Balg. lVe can well say that we gained more general information, and learned more that was of value to us in after- life in that one hour, th-an during the other time. 1 VVhen the class of '89 left the M. H. S. they had learned at least that it was in reality only Commencement Anna N aber. CLASS CE 1890 It was a large class that entered high school in the spring of Mr. Turner's last year at Mayville. There was no time for ns, so the Seniors of that year had to teach us for the remaining months of that school- year and I'.don't know who learned more, we or the Seniors. Our high-school career was an inter- esting and variable one, even tho it was singularly lacking in social functions. School was our chief business 5 there ' v Y., Pa ge Thirty-six THE ROCKET were no dances, no movies, no school- spreads for us. Unique at least as to Mayville, our class was under the direction of four principals, J. Turner, H. Gibson, J. Martin, and T.. S. Keeley. Four of the large class finished high school and were graduated in June of 1890. Tile were yo-ung and mentally imma- ture when we in our commencement es- says told the people of Mayville what is what. In return for the advice we gave them, the good people showered us with flowers, not hot.-house beauties but sim.ple garden-flowers. The day after graduation, Don Percy Lamoreaux, the only boy in our class, called for us with his fine two-seated carriage, drawn by two handsome brown horses, and took us together with all our flowers to the photographer's studio to have our class- pieture taken. XVe were wise enough, however, to go back to high school for another year, when we learned that the M. H. S. was to be put on the accredited list the fol- lowing year. It was our good fortune, indeed, to work with the new principal, T.. S. Keeley, and his assist-ant, Dr. G. Il. Ralg, the ablest instructor Mayville ever had. Teachers and pupils worked hard and how proud we all were when Prof. Stearns of the U. YV. inspected the school and found the work satisfac- tory and especially commendable in l.atin and German. Thus the Mayville ll. S. was accredited and the extra year of work had been well worth our time and effort. ln 1891, we four left the high school having -a second time to sail 4'0ut of the bay into the ocean. A Only two are left now, Percy Lamo- reaux and T, to mourn the untimely death of Jessie Barney 'and Anna lfber. Della. Naber. CLASS OF 1895 Of the large Freshman class that en- tered the High School in the year 1891 but two remained to finish the course and graduate in the year 1895. They were Gustav Husting of Mayville and myself. The other members of our class were Effie Rogers Sikes and iValter Schoen, both living in Milwaukee now, and Gustav Rousseau of Shawano. They entered our class in the Junior year. Our class as we entered High School under Prof. Keeley, our able principal, was full of life and vigor and I sup- pose quite hard to keep under control. Several of the members dropped out the first year, but most of them did not stay longer than to tinish the Sophomore year. The only assistant in our first year was Miss Schmidt, our teacher in geography and history. I think we all remember her as rather strict. The late Dr. H. H. Forkman was our beloved German teacher thruout the four year course. We will never forget his kind and generous heart. ln the Sophomore year Miss Julia iVhitelaw, as assistant, was welcomed by all the class, for she was not a stranger to us, as she had taught us in the eighth grade and we knew her good, qualities. ive were all sorry when she gave up teaching and ente1'ed married life. I have often wished I might meet her again, as fate has not been kind to her. After her came Miss Geddes and she helped ns get our English, Civil Government and Geom- THE ROCKET Page T lmlrty-se ren etry. She meant Well with us and tried to give us all the help we needed, for I must say thruout our course our teach- ers kept. us very busy at school and at home. There was little enjoyment for the students in the line of parties and dances in our school days, but we did get together at recess and played games and got all the fun we could out of them. During two of the winter-terms we had a Literary Society and some of the interesting debates are still in my mind. Thruout our course we had our monthly tests and even now in 1ny dreams I find myself writing those ex- aminations,' but the examinations T dreaded most were the Teachers Ex- aminations Which T wrote the last term in spring. Tt was certainly a relief when T had written them and had re- ceived my teaeher's certificate. After that we looked forward to our Com- mencement. lve each had to write an essay or oration. Our exercises were held at the old High School. We had no class-colors or class-Howers those days, but had a motto, Time is everythingf' The only presents we received from our friends were bouquets of garden-flowers and we appreciated those very, very much. After the commencement-exer- cises the alumni-reception followed at- the Turner Hall and was at that time a public affair. The next day the school- picnic was held and thus ended our High-school days. With deep regrets we gathered at the school-grounds after the picnic to say good-bye to our dear teachers and school-mates, realizing that our happy school days were ended and we must each make a start for ourselves in l'fe. . l Paula Pnustmn Naber. ULASS OF 1896 This was considered Cby the class it- selfj asithe best class ever graduated from High School- altho neither the teachers nor anyone outside of the class seemed to think so. Tn point of numbers graduating, we held the record, tive boys and six girls, until succeeding years found even that small bit of glory taken from us. How it ever happened that none of our boys got killed or maimed t or worse than thatj in attempting some fool- hardy tricks, is more than T can explain. A natural sense of modesty prevents my claiming all that the girls of that cl-ass are entitled to be credited with, but it is not too much to say that the gentle influence which they exercised at all times on our boy classmates, saved them for some good for mankind. The girls or our class were what are now termed Hhome-bodies. They were modest, studious, patient, obedient to teachers and parents, they frowned on all attempts of the boys to disturb the proper decorum of the school-room. They never dreamed of encouraging the boys to do mischief, as we understand and believe is quite the case today. They considered it a greater virtue to know some of the classics rather than to be an adept at the fox-trot, better to know how to -assist mother and teacher, than to excel in the use of out-of-door speed devices-in short, their ambi- tions were to become trainedifor the profession of teaching, or the greater profession of housekeeping and home- building, instead of those tending to public careers. .Xnd so all of our girls either commenced to assist in training Page Thirty-eight THE ROCKET our future men and women by teaching or by home-keeping. The boys, after exhausting all their rcsourees for mischief making and caus- ing distraction to their teachers, alarm to their parents and embarrassment to their girl classmates, finally managed to enter upon and to continue to lead hon- orable lives-strange as it now seems to us. Only one of our class has left us for- ever. He was a successful farmer and died in the prime of his manhood. Of the boys remaining, two are well- known High School principals, another has been chosen for County Judge, while another is engaged in the prac- tice of law. ln nearly a quarter of a century, the Class of 1896, has never, collectively or individually, given cause for shame or disgrace to our Alma Mater. B. J. Husting. CLASS OF 1898 Pronounccd the most symmetrical class ever graduated: four tuition boys and four Mayville girls, which made a complete double quartette, a leader and assistant in each voice. Sincerely, M-rs. Anna Mcincrs Nabcr. OLASS OF 1919 It is now only a year ago since our class graduated from high school, and the facts about our school-life are there- fore still somewhat fresh in our mem- ory. In our Freshman year our class was conspicuous, because with its forty-six members it constituted the largest class that had entered the high school up to that time. The class did not lack the spirit for raising Hrough housei' and Mr. Keeley was constrained to remind us several times that the assembly was no arena. Our class was prominent in the dcclamatory contests, for in our Fresh- man year one of our members won first place in the local contest, and in the Senior year another member took first place in the county contest. One of the remarkable things which was introduced into the school during our .Tnnior year was thc detention sys- tem. lt worked great havoc among the students and having, as it did, the hearty support of all the teachers, it reaped rich harvests every day. As re- gards its benetits, there is still a ques- tion in our minds. The literary society was inaugurated the same year. Its beneficial results were probably not fully realized by the students, and it was therefore unpopular -among them. A Prom was given by our class that year under an assumed name, and altho it was a success it nearly plunged the class into difficulties. During our Senior year, many things occurred which we will probably re- member for some time. Our class had to contend with a, great number of dif- ficulties of a rather exceptional nature. The class play, altho it was given after graduation, proved to be very success- ful, owing to the attentive work of Miss Burrow. Of the social activities of the THE ROCKET Page T hfirty-nine year, the Junior Prom, and the parties at the homes of Miss Liebig and Mr. Keeley stand out as the paramount en- tertainments of our entire high-school career. Our class had a good representation on every athletic team. It was also thru the efforts of some of the members of our class th-at the high school was brought back into the State Inter- scholastic Athletic Association, which in turn brought about the revival of athletic contests with the neighboring high schools. The most inetfaeeable fact in our memory is that the class of 1919 was the last one to be graduated by Mr. L. S. Keeley. This fact will always serve us as the key to the memories of our Senior year. The future of our class appears very promising, because so far twelve of the twenty-two graduates are attending higher institutions of learning. No other class has had such a large repre- sent-ation. Xineiof these are attending the Vniversity of lVisconsin. , Peter J. Bzzrclbzlch.

SOPHOMCRE PARTY The Sophomore party, which was held in the High School Assembly, prior to the Thanksgiving vacation, was pronounced a success by all who at- tended. The room was decorated in the Sophomore colors, shell pink and baby blue. The room. had been cleared of seats, to make room for dancing, and. as the Gilhooley Syncopaters had previ- ously been engaged to furnish dance music, dancing proved to be a very en- joyable feature of the evening. Several games we-re played, and at Mr. Owcn's kind suggestion, the broom dance was introduced. 'tEats played an important part in the evening's entertainment, and as no cases of indigestion were reported the following day, they must have been O. K.

A delicious lunch was served -at half-past nine olcloek and then the orchestra arrived and dancing followed until twelve. For the boys' committee putting back the seats was not the least part of the merriment.

My brother and I had just tinisht our usual play of hauling a load of wood to town on two kitchen chairs, wc were about to break up our wagon and use one of its components as a pulpit, when Mother interrupted our playing church in the middle of the organ-prelude and askt 'me whether I wouldn't. like to be- gin going to school after Easter. Dur- ing the previous September she had taken me to visit a place where Tante Ella was showing a group of children how to cut paper and make little bas- kets, but I had declared in disgust that it was mere girls, work. Not knowing what ll shud get into, I dreaded en- tering school and declared, I'd rather stay at home and play, in fact I wisht .I might never have to go to school or never even go to bed, so that I could play all day. During the next few weeks, I learnd that Arthur Piper and Wm. Gorder, my partners in the busi- ness of tunneling our sandp-ile were also doomd to enter school. When we talkt it over, Arthur assured VVm. and me that the teacher was a very agreeable person, Miss Johanna, the dautcr of our pastor. On Easter Tuesday the sun shone brightg drest in my best blue serge, and adornd with my toy watch, I trotted along at my mother's side, past the church, to a school-house built in 1860 that lookt for all the world like an army barrack, and had an interior arrange- ment like that of our Mayville grade building without the compensating glory of a cupola and Greek pillars on the ex- terior. Between two hundred and three hundred children were housed in four rooms. lvhen Mother opend the door of the primary room, my heart sank within me for I saw ninety youngsters, some kicking and daneing- the veterans, and others sobbing. Even Mother had some misgivings about leaving me there alone. Pretty soon the bell rang, thc older children joind in an' opening song, and then wc new-comers were seated alfabetically, so that I sat in the same seat with Arthur. That was some com- fort. The tirst week wore away, I was proud to carry my Primer to and from school, until one day Bully Bliedorn tried to douse me at the pump-, and the book got wet. and lost its healthy color. I used to wear my handkerchief as a sort of ornament. peeping out of the pocket of my blouse. One day I saw the boy opposite me have a handkerchief with a blue flowered edge,-just like mine, - I lookt for mine, - it has dis- appeared. l raised my hand and told teacher that John had taken my hand- kerchief. The teacher invited us to con- gress at the desk, and began an investi- gation - more effectual than most Con- gressional investigations- John testi- fied that he had brot the handkerchief from home, and the teacher found my handkerchief neatly folded in the bot- tom of my pocket. That stern, kind teacher! She was a tall, well built young woman of twenty- five. Her shiny black hair combed back severely, made her forehead appear super-intellectual. Her eyes sparkled like black diamonds. Her white apron crackled with starch. Her ideas of dis- THE ROCKET Page Forty-seven eipline were severe, and the weight of I overpopulation in that room. re-inforeed her ideas in practice, but she was very tender and human.

The garden of the old monastery was in a wild, unkept con- dition and had long been uncared for. Spanish moss swayed lazily in the breeze, as a symbol of sadness, mourn- ing as it were, for the desolation of this once beautiful garden. Vines that once tenderly had been trained by the hands of the patient monks to enshrine the holy passages that marked the pathway of their seclusion, now grew in wild disorder over paths and sacred niches. In one of the artist's high-vaulted rooms, one could see easles, canvases, brushes and stools. The room in gen- eral had a sacred atmosphere and save for the low-celled windows opening out toward a golden sunset the room would have been in gloom. The young artist had only one real acquaintance, a young woman staying in -a neighboring village. He had first met the young lady in the old garden wandering about greatly interested in the ruins of the monastery and curi- ouslymarvelling at the sights, when suddenly she came upon the young ar- tist. Greatly embarrassed but curious enuf to see the game thru, they soon be- came acquainted and -as the days had passed and she had come to the monas- tery they grew to be more than friends. He had fallen passionately in love with her and thinking only of the happiness which he had hoped might soon be his, told her of his love. She admitted she loved him. but confessed that she was already married. Discouraged, he left her in the old dead garden and went to his studio to paint away the suffering in his heart. His chain in life was not of friendship but of love for her- with only a link missing and so it was that day after day had passed and finally when he could stand it no longer he had gone to the village and inquired only to find that the link was further from his grasp than ever, for she had left a few days before with her husband to some far off country. Wearily he had sought the silence and solace of his sanctuary and there endeavored to find balm for his heart. After staying at the old monastery for only a short time he had again taken to wandering and searched for only love. Year after year he had searched, but only in vain, and finally had fallen with sickness and had been taken in by the patient monks of the Coast. Often, in his delerium he had seen her face, heard her speak, and often, Oh! how many times, she was once more by his side in the old garden. But slowly with time where m.emories remain, bitter memories mostly, with only a few sweet ones, .to lighten the burden, he had dc- eided to enter the silent ranks and had taken their sacred vows. Every night as he had stood on the stone walls of the inonastery-yard and had looked off into the far-off sunset a feeling of gloom had come o'er him, but he had his Oross to console himself with. Later he was sent as missionary to the village where he first met her. The feeling of love which faith could not quell had risen in him and after a stru0'0'le with himself he had turned bb toward the old, crumbling monastery. While he was kneeling in prayer in the room where his musty canvases had THE ROCKET Page Forty-nine rested o11 tottering easles, he heard a step and as he had turned he had be- held her-the wom-an whom he had longed for all these years. She had rushed toward him with outstretched hands but the beads, the garb, and the hood upon him, had stopt her. He had taken her hands and lookt deeply into her eyes. At- least he had found the link but the chain had been lost and the link alone remained. Silently they had walked along be- neath the old trees along the white road that led to the village, and then with the last rays of the departing sun upon story of his wanderings -and illness and of the peace he had at last found in the home of the monks. And she as if go- ing thru an ordeal had told him of leav- ing thc village with her husband and having wished to sparc him the pain of parting she had gone silently. But her love had brot her baek to him after all these years. Now she was free and had come back to love him. The sun disappeared and slowly she turned her face to the village. While he, had knelt silently there beneath the stars. A soul made tender by the mem- ories and sufferings he eonld not still. their happy faces, he had told her the STUDENTS PRAYER 1.

There w-as a variety from knee-high Freshmen to sky-high Seniors. NVQ were the Fresh- nien. ive were easily distinguished by our conspicuous display of green, the girls Wearing- green hair-ribbons and the boys, green ties. As Freshmen, of course, we had to suffer the hazing of the other classes, which consisted of sitting on the fountain and riding rails, but as the lligh School was under the supervision of Professor Keelcv, this soon stopped and we bccaniertirinly established as ineinbers of the Mayville High School. Our first t-astc of real work caine with the study of Algebra. Seine of ns suc- ceeded in making X equal 75, while some didn't. The following otlicers were elected: Win.

An orchestra was also organized with Miiss Boeehcr as leader in which llina llreger, Stanley Fell and Milan llelinbreeht represented the Freshmen class. The faculty con- sisted of Professor Keeley, and later Mr. Riordcn, Miss Holliday, Miss Wittke, Miss NVood, Miss Sehreve, hir. Janske, Mr. Pauly and Miss Kopf. 'ln the Spring of the year the 'Do- mestic Science Class distinguished theni- selves by giving a banquet for their niothers in the High School. They also proved thcniselves useful in preparing lunches and serving theni to the Moth- ers' Club of the First Grade and Kin- dergarten.

Mic were now joined hy the following students: Thel- ma Riley, lingo Prinz, llohert Miller and Harold McCarty. The otiicers of the preceding year were retained. Professor Keeley intro- duced into our lligh School a detention system. lt was an excellent system, hut it proved to he harder for the teachers than for the students. During' this year the lloys' and Girls' Literary Societies were organized, in the activities of which our class played a prominent part. Our class showed their patriotism hy joining the -Tnnior Red tlross. Three members of our class comprised the offi- cers, they were: Donald Haider, Presi- dent, Eugenia Bittner, Vice?Presidentg Wm. Bruder, Secretary. Mnzzy Ziegler had the honor of being President of the Gimmie Cllnbv he- eause he bought the least amount of pa- per. Other active members of this cluh were Don Haider and Hoody Matson. During this year we had one of the hest baseball-teams that our High School has ever had. llill liruder, Hugo Frinz, lion Tlaider and Milan Helmlirecht represented our illustrious class in the team. Milan llelmbrccht, Stanley Fell, Ger- hard Mueller and llma Ureger were the talented musicians in the lsligh-School orchestra this year. A At the close of this year we had the sad misfortune of losing Verona Hillen, a dear, classmate, who died after an operation for appendieitis. JUNIOR YEAR The few months of vacation were soon over and we were back in High School as peppy Juniors. Olive Jung, Minerva Wagner and Margaret Wenin- ger entered our class, hut this year many students left us. Milan Helm- hreeht and Roh Miller entered Milwau- kee Tligh Schools. Donald Haider went to Prairie du Ohien. Barry Springer left for Howe. Tndiana, where he en- tered a military academy. Hoody Mat- son accepted a position in one of our local meat-markets. Nina Fischer and Erna Hartwig also left us. The Commercial Course was intro- duced to replace the Manual Training Fonrse. Nve also had a new force of teachers. namely, Miss .Xlida Butter- lmrodt, Miss Alice 'lice Burrow, Miss Pauline Tiiehig, Miss Madeline Komers, and in addition we had three different Page Fifty-four THE ROCKET teachers, Miss Brown, Mr. Knox and Mr. Pike in the Physics Department. In the preliminary declamatory con- test held at school, the members of our class ranked highest. Mildred Mc- Eathron received Iirst place, Evelyn Billington second place and Danica Stepanovic fourth place. At the inter- class contest held at the Tnrner Hall, Danica Stepanovic took the girls, first place and Gerhard Mueller took first of the boys. On May 9th the biggest event of the school-year took place, It was the Junior Prom. This Prom was one of the most successful in the history of the school. The Prom was followed by a Junior Farewell Banquet for Mr. Keelcy. After the presentation of the class-remenr brance, a reading lamp, Mr. Keeley gave a speech which will be long re- membered by us. ' SENIOR YEAR ive began our last year in High School last autumn under the supervi- sion of our new principal, Mr. Owen. with the assistance of Miss Lynch, Miss Nenpert, Miss Hnttcrbrodt, Miss Jobse, Miss Kahler, Mrs. Clymer and Mr. Pike. liater Mrs. Hachhuber became a member-of the faculty. This year Victor Ziegler, Olive Jung and Minerva XVagner did. not return and later Leona Mildbrandt left ns. The organizations formed in this year were the Dollars and Oents Olnb, with Mildred McEathron as President and Thelma Riley as Vice-President, the Boys' Athletic Association with Harold McCarty as President and Carl Ruede- bnseh as Secretary and Treasurer, and XVilliam Bruder as cheer-leader, all members of our class. Also a Girls' Glee Club was or- ganized which never practiced except when it was about to give a public deni- onstration. A High School Orchestra was organized and directed by Mr. Owen and it consisted of the following Seniors: Louise Schwartz, llma Dre- ger, Carl Ruaioimscil, Stanley Fell. Gerhard Mueller, and one Junior, Earl Yonngbeck. The Basket-Ball team which made so brilliant a showing was organized and our class was represented by Oarl Hnedebusch, playing center, and ivalter as substitute. The Boys' liaseball-Team included Walter Naber, ,William Bruder, Carl Ruedebnsch and Frank Falk. The Girls' Baseball-Team, the first in the history of the school, was or- ganized with Ilma llreger, Adele Mar- tens, Lorraine Hrnder, Mildred Mc- Eathron, Eugenia Bittner, Margaret Falk, Rose Bnehner, Margaret lvenin- ger and ,Thelma Riley representing our class. This year we gave a very nice Christ- mas party to the students and teachers of the High School, and later the Class was entertained at a dinner given by Mrs. Alvin llreger, Mrs. Herman Mar- tens, Mrs. Oscar Naber and Mrs. Clarl llnedebnsch.

T II E R O O K E T Page Fifty-nine JUST INCIDENTAL Ach, you have heard 'von Mayville, the town von Turners und pretzels, but you never heard of those Mayvillians, for quietly they search for learning within the studious walls of that dark red building on the hill-top, known as Rock River College. It all happened on a warm, lazy day in October, when the Little Learners were eagerly bent over desks with thoughts strictly book-ward. Suddenly, they heard the drowsy hum ot' motors above them, - it was a real Bird Mun in the air. Their excitement was inde- scribable as they watched this Wizard soar and sway over the village, now pro- pelling a straight course to the tune of buzzing engines, then sweeping and darting in graceful curves of his bird- like flight. The students gained a hurried per- mission and rushed to the avi-ator's landing, leaving open books and de- serted sehool-roonis behind them. Then, the teachers felt lonesome.
