This class started out with twenty members, six of whom dropped out before the Freshman year was over, two of these left on account of ill health and the other four could not make up their minds to endure the monotony of school life. The remaining fourteen fell prey to their much dreaded studies but they worked with might and main until they learned it all. Latin and Algebra were not so bad after the first scare was over. We began the Sophomore year with eleven in the class. We had lost three, one entered the Seymour School and one the Indianapolis School, and we gained one, a boy who entered from the Crothersville school. Of the three whom we had lost two entered different schools and one gave up school life for domestic life. As Sophomores we were carefree, happy and gay. Caesar! It wasn't so hard after all. Geometry did not prove so hard to us as it did most classes. The Junior year began with ten of the eleven who had made up the class when we were Sophomores. three again had dropped out, one to enter the Bedford school, and the boy who had come from Crothersville spent the year there again, and one girl left us to enter upon the bliss of wedded life. To our class were added two boys from the Alert school, again making our number ten. Each minute we learned something new. The class was divided on a few subjects, half taking Physics and half taking Cicero. The class play: The Touch Down, aided by the Seniors, was given with much success. The J unior-Senior reception was a most elaborate affair. And now as the Seniors of the school we have lost but one, who has dropped behind because of unfinished work. We have gained one from the class of '21, and Crothersville again sent us the boy who had been our class mate when we were Sophomores. The girl who had left us to enter the Seymour school decided she wanted her diploma from the Medora High School and could not resist the temptation to come back and finish with the class she started with: thus we are finishing with an even dozen, the second largest class ever graduated from our school. It dose not seem possible that we are leaving so soon, we are leaving though not without regret. Now as we go forth into the world, we see as we have never seen before that our work is just beginning. The class play, What Happened to Jones was given with the same success that we had scored in The Touch Down. As we are the first class to put out an annual, we hope that the classes inthe future will continue this new enterprise which we have begun. This school will perhaps forget what we did here but we cannot forget what we learned here. We are determined the teachers shall not have labored in vain for us during the four years we have spent in old M. H. S. As we leave these high school halls we go forth with the purpose in our hearts to uphold and carry forward the highest ideals of our Alma Mater. -Q ' 4 l CECILLE FOUNTAIN ' To share in all the seasons have to give, Of happiness and sadness is to live.

They were progressing well until the beginning of the second semester, when one boy withdrew to a quiet country school. In a few weeks along came another fellow, who entered the Freshman class, although he came from Missouri, he had no trouble in under- standing us. As the weeks rolled by, a boy from the country entered, but soon grew tired of school life and returned to the country. Thus the class stood until the close of school, when everyone passed into the Sophomore class. At the beginning of the term of 1920, these eleven pupils entered as Sopho- mores. But at the end of a week one girl sacrificed school for factory work, but returned as a Sophomore the next year. The rest of the class plowed on, winning merits not only in school work but also in athletics. One unfortunate boy was seriously injured when helping to pull the honors to M. H. S. in a basket ball game. He was forced to leave school by order of physicians. He did not enter again until the next term, when his former class mates became Juniors. When school assembled in 1921, only nine of the original class entered as J uniors. One boy, preferring hard labor to school work, left us. We were welcomed by a Junior, who remained from the former class, and in turn we welcomed a young lady from another school. We have had no failures and we hope that we shall never have any. All offices in the Junior class are held by girls. TOP 'ROW:-Harold Zollman, Roberta Wright, Wilbur Shortridge, Edith McKinney. Aubrey Phillips, BOTTOM ROW:-Austin Hook, Kathleen Walters.

SGPHOMGRE CLASS HISTQRY One hot September morning twenty three heated, friendless, miserable Freshies stood waiting to be enrolled in a fine institution known as M. H. S. We were a little timid and strange, perhaps, but already feeling that assurance and strength which comes from numbers, we entered the High School. When the time came for us to receive our first report cards, everyone was shak- ing in his boots. After we received them some of us decided we had better work a little harder but most of us were satisfied. At the close of the Freshman year We contributed two boys to the Freshman Class. One of the girls decided to live a quiet and peaceful married life rather than help Caesar Hght his battles. ln the beautiful month of September, on the thirteenth day, in the year of 1921 this same promising class entered its Sophomore year. Twenty had returned to take up Sophomore work, fourteen girls and six boys, and we were a mighty class, indeed. The decrease in our numbers had only made us stronger. We frankly declared our selves to be far superior to the Freshman Class of last year. Even as Sophomores we discovered that we were not afraid to show our ability. We took part in Athletics and helped M. H. S. win her victories. Our musical ability was evident by the num- ber of our class in the Glee Clubs. During the first part of this year our class was diminished to seventeen, when one girl went to another school, another decided to try her fortune at factory work and the other returned to her home on a farm. With such a varied history within the past two years and being benefitted by the achievements and failures of those who have left us, we dare not limit the possi- bilities of- this illustrious class. When we look into the Future beyond our school life, We now have visions of pleasant country homes with up-to-date conveniences, chairs in our colleges and universities, and perhaps, even the President's chair.

They began their career with theusual zeal and are still hitting the ball. They have cut their Algebraic teeth with only an occasional use of the teeth- ing ring and might pass for perfectly good Dagoes or the old Latins themselves. The Art Class is not lacking for infant Corots and Landseers. When it comes to preparing eats the Freshman girls are best ever. The Freshies are active in Glee Clubs and other school activities. In basket-ball season a Freshman was the score winner for M. H. S. This Freshman, by the way, excels in most sports. The Freshies shine in track work and baseball, but of course, that is not surprising. They have not only the distinction of being in number the largest class of M. H. S., but arethe long and short of it all. ' S 4 - 'A BACK ROW:-Russell Scott, Florence Taylor. Fred Poor, Emma Phipps, Roy Gray, Aretta Eshorn. Edwin Gossett.

The present Medora Public School was erected in 1897. From 1897 until 1909 there was a three year high school course. In 1909 the school became certified and in 1913 received its commission. The school is gradually growing larger and more efficient and is hoped that in the future it will continue thus. The school is furnished with the best laboratory equipment that is needed in a high school. An additim n has been made to the play grounds which gives more room for out-of-door activities. Al- though most activities found in other High Schools and more than are found in many are found here. This is the first time in the history of the school that a senior class has attempted the task of putting out an annual. As this is the first time that an annual has been put out by M. H. S. and the first time that the class of '22 has ever tried their hands on editorial work we feel that our work would have been a great deal more complex if we had not received the right kind of assistance from the faculty, schoolmates and all others that were in- terested in the Medorian. ' The editors desire to make acknowledgments of the service and interest which has helped make the 1922 Medorian a success. ' To Miss Manion, who is faculty adviser:-Miss Mnaion shows great interest in school activities. She directed the play, The Touch Down , which was successfully given by the Juniors and Seniors of 1921. She also directed What happened to Jones, a comedy which was given by the Senior class of this year. As faculty ad- viser for the Medorian, Miss Manion has shown her ability to advise the editors in their different lines of work. Had it not been for her co-operation with the Seniors this year the annual would not have been published. ' To the former graduates whose work in the school has caused it to progress, we hope this will bring back remembrances of the happy days that you spent going to the dear old M. H. S. To the students we want to infuse into the entire school life that spirit of Greater M. H. S. and to keep alive that spirit ofgreater and better things of which we have been so proud during our days at M. H. S. - EDITOR X 4 r i Y WL I JOE SMITH MARTIN D.

For a year now the 'wise heads' of the city had predicted a marriage-Jane and. Beverly. Then one evening Marian Tyler announced that she was to have fi guest from New York-Marguerite Clarkson. The young social set thrilled to think of the oncoming gayeties. - Miss Clarkson arrived and a bril- liant dance was given at the Tyler hoine in her honor. Her third dance was with Beverly. She soon stopped dancing and led him to a deserted nook in the conservatory. When the music stopped Miss Clarkson casually remarked, lQet's sit out the next dance here, or better still, stroll through the gardens. Oh-er-I have this dance reserved with Ja.ne-but perhaps later- lVell, I like that Mr. Trevour- I have all dances reserved except t.l1is one-but of course, if you'd rather be with Miss Campbell I have noth- ing to say, scornfully replied Miss Clarkson. Perhaps I can explain to Jane, then, Beverly answered, remember- ing that Jane usually understood. ll She took his arm and led him through the gardens to a seat near the fountain. Here they sat in sil- ence for several minutes. Beverly looking at her realized how beauti- ful she was, and-Jane was forgot- ten. She slipped her hand in his and a strange feeling surged over him at the' touch. Could it be that he loved her-having known her only these few hours? He could not explain the feeling otherwise. Do you know, Mr. Trevour, I have liked you immensely since I first met you tonight? broke the silence. Perhaps the feeling has been common, Miss Clarkson, replied Beverly. They heard others entering the garden and rose to go. Marguerite laid her hand on his arm and said, Will you call tomorrowill' ' I can 't leave the laboratory un- til three, but if that time suits you, I'll call and we 'll go driving, prom- ised Beverly. The next afternoon they took a long drive-nor was this the last one. The month of August passed and Marguerite would soon return home. Throughout the round of gayeties Jane was forgotten by Beverly. She attended all the parties and dances with the same sweet smile and kindly manner for which she had ' always been loved. But underneath her smile was a breaking heart. Each night when the moon peeped through her window she saw a girlish figure kneeling by the bedside praying to be able to treat 'the other girl' right because Beverly loved her. One evening near the end of the month Beverly and Marguerite an- nounced their engagement. All eyes immediately turned to Jane and found her with her ever-ready smile. The 'wiseheads' of Kensington again talked-of Beverly's deserti.n1 and Jane 's brave actions. A few days after the announce- ment Marguerite noticed a racer Hying down the street. The car camc to a sudden stop in front of the Tyler home and Jane Campbell alighted and ran up the wa.lk. Oh, Miss Clarkson, she began breatlilessly, I was visiting at thc hospital when they brought Beverly in. He was seriously injured, a. short while ago, when some acids exploded and the doctors think he will never see again. He called for you-so I took the liberty of coming after you. ' ' Beverly-hurt- blind - oh, ,li can 't stand to see him! But, Miss Clarkson, Beverly wants you-don't you understand? pleaded Jane. ' . It always upsets me so to see an injured person-I really ean't go! coolly replied Miss Clarkson. Surely when he wants you, you wouldn't refuse-won't you go? cried Jane. No, I simply can't, answered Miss Clarkson, emphatically. As Jane stumbled into her racer tears of anger iilled her eyes. So that was how Miss Clarkson loved Beverly-to refuse to go to him when he was hurt! As she drove, back to the hospital she could only think of how disappointed Beverly would ' be when he should awake and find Mai'- guerite absent. ' I ' L Won't you please -allow nielto stay here until he awakens? plead- ed Jane of the physicians. I B It's strictly against the rules-?' Uh, but you must let me--I simply must stay ! ' ' As she sat in o11e corner of the room, watching the iigure on the bed for the first gleam of consciousness, Jane felt that her heart would break. Why couldn't it have been she, in- stead of the one whom she loved so dearly? The figure moved slightly and a single word escaped his lips- Jane. Her heart jumped--he was calling her! Jane--dear little J ane-!-what have I done to you? I didn't know -how much--I did love you Jane. She slipped softly to the bedside andtook his hand in hers. t'Yes, Bev, l've come-Jane's here. All night long she sat by the bed side watching for the first sign of returning consciousgess Hlld all night long he rfaved in delirium-of Jane. At dawn her vigil was r-+xvarded. The nurse bade her rest. After another thorough examina- tion the doctors shook their heads doubtfully-he would never see again. Miss Clarkson left Kensington and a few days later a letter came, breaking the engagement. She could not marry a blind man and expect to take care of him all her life! . Throughout his convalescence 1 l i . i 1 l 1 I l l 4 4 , .4 ,Q Jane remained with him-reading or talking to him. One day when J aue called Beverly was unusually quiet. As she' started to 'leave he reached for her hand. Jane, dear, can you ever forgive me for the abominable way in which I have treated you? Hush, Bev dear, you know you are forgiven-so why ask? It nearly kills me to think of it. How thankful I am that I found out what she was. Of course, I can never hope for you to marry me-a blind. man-but it would make me happy to know that you cared for me a little. Jane, darling, won't you try? ' I won't have to try, Bev. -And, Bev, darling, nothing' eould make me happier than ,to know that I could live the rest of my life with you- and care for you. Do you think that I, too, will desert you when you need nie? - Jaue! As Jane stooped to kiss him, her eyes filled as she saw the tears trickl- ing from under the bandages over his eyes. . A few weeks later Jane Campbell became Mrs. Beverly Trevour. Again the 'wiseheads' talked of how she was sacrificing her life for the one who had once deserted her. As for Jane and Beverly, their cup of happiness .needed only one drop to ,fill it to overflowing-the re- eovery of Beverly's sight, and- eould the dim veil of the future been drawn aside perhaps even this drop would have been added. ltt B- ATHLETICS A , In spite of times when basket ball seemed almost impossible and in spite of a 50 per cent average of games won before Christmas with prospects of continued con- sistent improvement, lowered to a 12 1-2 per cent average after the distant Browns- town floor had to be used for practice, the year has been one of athletic progress for M. H. S. The Tunnelton game 15-14, the Crothersville game 26-23, Qafter no practice for two weeks? and the first half of the Vallonia game, have given Medora fans an idea of what M. H. S. will do when her new gym becomes a glorious reality. Base ball and track and iield have been additional sports this year and have kept M. H. S. boys busy during the spring months. The members of the base ball team are: Crooke, cg Gray, p, iCapt.Jg Hill, 1 by Phllips, 2 bg Hall, 3 bg Plummer, ss: Holmes, lf, Wright, c fg Mckinney, r fg Hobbs, sub p. The track and field team entered for the County meet on April 22 includes:-Phillips, CCapt.J, High Jump, Broad Jump, Pole Vault: Plummer, 100 yd. Dash, High Jump, Relay Race: Gray, 100 yd.

During the year additional athletic equipment was added as follows:--Track suits, vaulting standardsand pole, tape, bats, base ball, chest protector, volley ball and net, megaphone, and stop watch. ' Thanks are due Mr. Hutchison and Joe Smith for material assistance incarry- ing out the athletic program. The school has been exceedingly fortunate in having as its athletic director this year, Mr. Rankin, who has worked with untizing zeal and has stood for good work and high moral principles. For the progress that has been made we are especially indebted to him. It is hoped and believed that this year has but paved the way for other and more successful years for M. H. S.-years successful in building and character as well as records of athletic prowess. ' BASKET BALL SCHEDLLLE M. H. S.

'Till we have learned it all. The next year we were Soph'mores, ' Carefree, happy and gay, But nevertheless, our lessons were good, Or so they all did say. And then as Juniors we did shine, g e . And worked with might and main, , 'Til the records we left on the teachers' desk, Can never be made again. . And now as the Seniors of the school, When the race is nearly run, We clearly see as we couldn't before, That our life work's just begun. And as we leave theseclassrooms, Never to enter again, . The earnest desire in every heart, Is Aim High Until the End. ' -H. B.

Clowns, Indians, preachers, negroes, poor, forlorn women and up-to-date young ladies turned out. Mr. Rankin received the prize for being the best masked. The evening was enjoyed by all. On December the twenty-second the faculty entertained the High School with a Christmas social. The guests were grouped into colleges, Yale scoring the highest -in the contests and Columbia the least. To show our appreciation and enjoyment of the evening, we presented to each of the faculty a box of candy. ' ' ' r' On February the third we had with us Alvin C. York, world's greatest war hero. He gave us a very interesting talk. He was accompanied by Rev. Melvin Russell who entertained us with music.

CLASS PROPHECY' g As the end of the school year of 1921-22 drew near, the president of the Seniors wondered what would be- come of the members of his class af- ter their graduation from M H One evening, as he sat before the fire in his room musing over tl1e future, a strange drowsiness overcame hini. He saw himself standing i11 a large field. A loud b11ZZil1g filled his ears and, looki11g up, he saw an' aeroplane approaching. It stopped near him and a beautiful 1112lidQ1l beckoned him to her and told him to enter the plane of tl1e good fairy of the year 1932 and see the future of 11is class. Soon he was soaring over the coun- try. He was surprised to see the many other planes flying about. Looking d0NV1l, he saw a college ca111pus. Tl1e plane came to earth, and l1e was directed into one of the buildings of lVellesley College. He entered the offices and saw aifamiliar figure seated at a. desk. It was his cousin, Vtfilma, who despite all expec- tations to tl1e contrary, had laid man aside, and 11ad accepted tl1e chair of Englishin one of our greatest col- leges for women. Resuming his journey, he was soon soaring over a great city-Medora. They alighted near a magnificent church and the fairy led l1i1n to the entrance. He recognized the drawling tone of the masterful orator in the pulpit, who took for his text, Lift up thine eyes to tl1e 'Hills'. After the services a beautiful woman came forward like a Beem,' of light and he recognized her as the tiniest member of theclass of '22. Sl1e was tl1e 111i11iSi2G1',S wife. . Theinext stop was on the roof of a large, impressive bank building in the busin-ess'sec-tion of the city.' The fairy directed l1i1n to the pres1dent's oiiice. , He entered and-paradoxical as it may seem-saw' a Crocker occupying the president's chair. The following fiight was rather long and when they came to a stop he found himself in New York City. They en- tered a beautiful a1't studio. Before the easel, palette in hand, stood a fair-haired artist. He was painting a portrait of l1is wife and was work- ing painstakiiigly to get just the right tint of auburn to her hair. On the walls were pictures which had won first prizes at various art ex- hibitions. Surely this was the Hall of fame! They then flew out over the ocean The fairy pointed to an ocean liner and gave him a field glassf He focused it on the people on deck., At the railing stood a young man and a very Grace ful youugwoman, who looked exceedingly happy. They were apparently on their honeymoon-to Europe. The woman was a former classmate. - Again they entered New York and landed 011 the roof of a large depart- ment store. He entered the building, which was filled with fashionably dressed ladies, one of whom he re- cognized as the Stewart of the class of '22, She had become the wife of tl1e millionaire, who owned the store. The final stop in New York was on the roof of a large apartment house. He was directed i11to richly furnished Q bachelor apartment- and saw a young man writing at a table in the sun parlor. He found that the man was a poet of no little note Hllfl that he l1ad just been appointed our ambassador to Great Britain. When he again en- tered -the plane, he carried under his arm The 'NVrigl1t' Book of Poems, autographed in the familiar' scrawl of his classmate. They took their leave of New York and-followed the coui se of the Hudson for a few miles. Looking down, he saw a. beautiful villa overlooking the river. He was 'surprised when they landed and the fairy bade l1i1n enter the mansion. He was ushered into a luxuriously furnished roo1n. Before the iiresat a 'young' man and woman. The woman wasa Fountain bubbling over with happiness. The man was looking over a book which he had just completed, The Inventions of M. D. Hill. On the floor played a beautiful child of about two years. He was welcomed by his old class- mates. The woman told of her operatic career before her marriage and the 111an told of a new invention of l1is-a powerful radio by which they were to hear a concert given that evening in London by another mem- ber of the class of '22, wl1o l1a.d be- co111e a pianist of world-wide fame. Even as he told this, tl1e opening notes of the concert were heard. The pianist played as one encore the beautiful Spanish love-song, Jua- nita. Again he started on his journey. Tl1e fairy still guided the plane northward. They finally came to a stop o11 the athletic field of Har- vard College. The football team crowded around l1i1n and called him Coach So, although he had the most common name in the class he was to have tl1e most uncommon position. The team got to work and he got in 'the thick of the game. The ball camehis way and he jumped. He awoke with a start to find that he had fallen from his chair. The fire was out and he was numb with cold. He had no idea of how long he had slept but he felt repaid for he believed that he had seenthe real future of his class.
