We hope that its pages may describe and recall the ac- tivities of this most prosperous year. Our main effort throughout has been to please our readersg to leave an hon- orable milestoneg to help hold up the standard of our high schoolg and to give the readers a book Which, in later life, they can often read and enjoy. If We can be assured that our object has been fulfilled in this publication, then our time and work have not been spent in vain. ' NVe wish here to express our appre- ciation and our hearty thanks to All , for the assistance they have rendered toward the perfecting of a successful Annualg and also to the Faculty, espec- ially Miss Coffey, Whose frequent Words of advice have guided and formed the basis of the material within.

Allllllill Stuff 'VFW' ' What We Have and Want in Our High School I-IE high school worth while is the one which primarily stands for work. There never has been, is, or will be anything that can be substituted for work. There are no short cuts, no easy roads to discover and sharpen the different talents and abilities. Even the student who makes good grades with little or no effort cannot possibly receive the full benefit he should get unless he utilizes one hundred per cent of his powers. A good teaching force is es- sential, but it is not all that is needed. Certainly the high school has fnderful workshop facilities. Every reci- tation is a means of self-expression. Every lesson preparation is a mould for some kind of habit formation. Every action in recitation room, study hall, corridor, on campus and athletic field, is an indication of the habits and char- acter of each student. While boys and girls are not born with the same amount of mental ability or riches, every boy and every girl can choose for himself as to the amount of work he will do and as to how he will act. Witliin every person is something that tells him what is right and what is wrong. The student who tries to cover up this inner prompting is injuring himself morally far more than he pos- sibly could mentally by not applying himself to his lessons. A sense of fair- ness, justice, uprightness and honesty, is far more important than a perfect mind or body. The simple question of what is right and what is wrong is answered or evaded more times daily than any other question in the world. The most im- portant part of a student's education is the development of a true and keen sense of moral obligation. The American High School abounds in opportuni- ties for the development of this obligation. The close association of teacher with student and student with student, should result in the recognition of the rights of others as well as those of self. It should demonstrate the necessity of the golden mile and the practice of connnendable compromise. Vertainly the daily intermingling of several hundred people under one roof, is a won- derful thing in terms of training for citizenship when these associations are pleasant, instructive and ennobling. Every school day 's work should have in it some opportunity to give the other fellow, as well as one 's self a square deal. It is so easy to find excuses for one's self, or to build up a strong argumentj in favor of something one de- sires. It is so much easier tha11 to uncover and recognize the arguments and viewpoints of those differing in opinion. Being unfair to one's self is far more disastrous than being unfair to another pe1'son. Every student who treats himself squarely in all matters cannot help but treat his instructors and fellow students justly. Eleven Continually weighing and determining physical, mental and moral prob- lems, results in the ability to select and cherish the sincere and really beautiful things in life. All that is questionable, superficial and wrong, will naturally fall i11to proper classes. All that is uplifting, all that is noble, all that makes life worth while will come as a natural heritage. The right kind of school spirit will give expression to the best part of a true education. NVhile book knowledge is necessary and important, it is not the real foundation of an education. Every phase of school activity has its place and does its work. Faculty and student body have worked hard this year to inculcate and develop what they feel to be the corner stone of the educated person. While much has been accomplished, there is a great deal more to be donc. Throughout the year our athletic activities have been brightened and en- livened by this cheering and singing that all high :chool students enjoy. How- ever, this is the easiest kind of school spirit to exhibit, and is not, by any means, the truest and deepest method of expressing pride of school. In fact the commonness and abundance of noise makes this lighter phase of school spirit often difficult to guide and control. But we want and need the yells alltl cheering. The students of Mendota High have made rapid progress from the van- dalic spirit which often pervades high schools. Our new and beautiful build- ing is unusually free from the scratching, marring, versifying and name -writing condition so often found in public buildings. Neither are our walks and walls besmirched with different colored paints designating the probable graduation year of some misled student artists. All these and their related barbarisjms have been outgrown and cast aside by our student body. We are thankful their minds have attained this level. . Our boys and girls are not only proud of their building with its grounds to the extent that they guard and care for it, but they take pleasure in leav- ing behind them thotful, useful and decorative expressions of their delight and reverence for its precincts. These gifts to the community 's greatest institution are the material expression of a school spirit that is as commendable and beauti- ful vandalism is execrable and repulsive. The social side of our high school spirit is good and growing better. There is a rising tendency to taboo any form of questionable entertainment. While it is entirely natural that in a group of several hundred students, there are a few who are careless and thoughtless i11 these matters, they are in the minority. These few have felt the displeasure of the student body o11 several occasions this year. And, in most cases these few offenders have benefitted by this form of eensurc. Surely the boys' idea of treating every girl as they would wish other boys to treat their sisters is a standard of gentlemanly conduct to attain and be proud of. Twelve It is very seldom that the selfish part of school spirit becomes evident. Usually our boys and girls are quick to champion the cause of justice. While often impulsive and sudden in their conclusions, our students are wise and just enough to change their decisions when fairness so dictates. However, one of thc big problems is to get the students to give themselves a square deal. Seine are prone to cheat themselves and thus check their development. They are too ready to accept unnecessary help from their teachers or fellow students. Stu- dents cheat themselves just as much by permitting others to continually lead the way and do all the reciting, as they do by actually copying the work of another. Self-expression is the greatest means of individual growth. Real school spirit is often expressed by the unceasing struggle on the part of the large majority of our students to place their names on the honor rolls. This year's rolls are longer and more regular than ever before. And the re- quirements liave been raised, not lowered! But the greatest cause of rejoicing is the occasional lost sheep that comes to his senses sufficiently to realize where he is drifting. Now and then the faculty rejoice to see a ne 'er-do-well take a stand for better work-and make good. It is true that we still have a few who are wasting the greater part of their time, but they are becoming fewer each year. The increasing demand for good work on the part of the student body, as well as the faculty, is exerting great influence to push even higher the scholar- ship of our institution. But far greater than the zeal for work among our boys and girls is the earliest desire for a wholesome and genuine sense of moral responsibility a11d obligation. In this period of universal moral degeneracy, this particular phase of true school spirit is an inspiring and vital thing. Whenever possible and pi'actical, our boys and girls are given the opportunity of executing various kinds of school activities. Many of these are identical or closely related to later life. For this reason the doing of these things is the best possible kind of training for efficient citizenship. ln concluding, the words of David Starr Jordan 's Appeal 'To Boys' are quite applicable. They pertain to girls as well as boys. He says: 'tYour first duty in life is toward your afterself. So live that your af- terself-the 1na11 you ought to be-may in his time be possible and actual. Far away in the years he is waiting his turn. His body, his brain, his soul are in your boyish hands. He cannot help himself. t'What will you leave for him? t'Will it be a brain unspoiled by lust or disipation, a mind trained to think and act, a nervous system true as a dial in its response to the truth about you? Will you, Boy, let him come a man among men in his time? Or will you throw away his inheritance before he has had the chance to touch it? Will you turn over to him a brain distorted, a mind diseased? A will untrained to Thirteen action? A spinal cord grown through and through with devil grass of that vile harvest we call wild oats? Will you let him come, taking your place, gaining through your exper- iences, hallowed 'through your joys, building on them his own? Or will you fling his hope away, decreeing wantonlike that the man you might have been shall never be? This is your problem in life, the problem of more importance to you than any or all others. How will you meet it, as a man or as a fool? When you answer this, we shall know what use the world can make of you. R. E. Beebe ,l...L . . SCI-IOOLROOM RULES THAT D0 NOT WORK IN M. H. S. 1-You are especially requested to come late, fifteen minutes preferably. 2-If you don't feel like studying put your books under the desk and disturb others. 3-If the teacher has callers you are requested to make all the noise possible. 4-If you have nothing to do why not wiggle the seat where some scholar is writing? It will be of great assistance. 5-Bring an extra supply of chewing gum, so if the teachers make you throw yours away you will have some more. 6-If you are sent out to the Principal take your cap and coat and go home. You won't have to study the rest of the day. He went into the office, The picture of despair, But came out smiling broadly 'Cause Mr. Beebe wasn't there.

Coffey Ralph E. Beebe Clarence A. Jack EDITORIAL This recent year has witnessed a great many advancements and improve- ments in the High School. Our first and greatest school activity of interest is the real school spirit which has been manifested this year by the student body in everything that was undertaken, such as study, athletics, food sale, etc. We owe this quality to the enthusiasm of all in the High School, especially to the efforts of our cheer leaders and faculty boosters. Ill our athletics this year, we have played a losing fight most of the time, due to the fact. that our teams were in the making. But in spite of our mis- fortunes, the rooters backed the team with their splendid school spirit to the finish, on the field and in the gym. We have organized a few new clubs for the purpose of interesting the students in their school work,-that is, mixing work with play. The most important ones are the Science Club, the Economies Club, the Art Club, the Commercial Club, the Agricultural Clubs, etc. We have had more clean social functions this year than in any previous year. These consisted of dances, entertainments and other miscellaneous parties. For the first time a Student Council was organized in the High School by Mr. A. I. Hardy. The Student Council is serving its purpose well, as some instances have already proven. Along with this, Mr. Hardy has the student body so governed, that co-operation is the main spring in the High School. ' We wish to thank all for their contributions in making this annual what it is, and our greatest desire is that our book, the M , may meet the approval of our friends and associates. Emerson E.

A Lois Moore, '22 THE CAMPUS A decided improvement has been made in the appearance of the campus of the M. T. H. S. While the Board of Education has always had in mind some plans for landscape work, conditions have not been favorable for their execution. Through the generosity of Mr. B. Katzwinkel our grounds are now beau- tified with flowers and shrubbery which, if furnished by another, would have eost at least three times the amount actually expended. Our school is fortunate to have such a liberal and interested man assisting in the direction of our institution. Thirty --.-.U-X . ,- Class History N A gloomy day, Sept. 7, 1918, we, the class of '22 entered the portals of the Mendota Township High School, numbering seventy-nine, the largest class to claim the name of Freshman up to that time. Although somewhat handicapped during this year by the wave of influenza striking this part of the country and taking away one of our most enthusiastic and popular classmates, Leland Chase, we accomplished a great deal. After several weeks had passed we had our first class meeting at which we chose our class leaders, Miss Fuller as Advisor, Irma Kohl as President. Purple and Gold were chosen as our class colors. . We did not accomplish much in the way of social activities this year, except the Freshman-Sophomore picnic, on account of our hard work in making up for loss of time during the siege of influenza, but nevertheless, we were represented in Athletics by two worthy men, Potter and Kaufman, who always put forth their best efforts to uphold the name oftheir class. The second year we came back ready to take upon ourselves thc worthy place of Sophies, and were glad to throw off our verdant colors loaning them to the newcomers, the Freshmen. This year we chose as our Adviser Miss Nussle and Irma Kohl again took charge of the Presidency. During this year we added one more to our roll of athletes, Madden, who proved himself a valuable member on the Basket Ball team. As Sophomores we accomplished more. We enlarged our social activities in the form of a Hallowe'en Party and several dancing parties. Many of our members took part in Katcha Koo. Our second year closed with -the Freshman- Sophomore picnic at St-arved Rock. We started our Junior year, 1921, with much enthusiasm. Miss Nussle and Harold Potter were selected as our leaders. Our athletics kept pace with our school life as is shown by the fact that nine men participated in this phase of work. Indthe li11e of social activities the girls put forth their best efforts to uphold the name of the Class of '22 by entertaining the Freshman girls at a circus in the Gymnasium, which proved very successful. V Towards the latter part of the year we gave our Class Play t'What Hap- pened to J ones. All that took part proved there was great talent in our class. The year ended with the Junior-Senior Prom. We were given the honor of inaugurating the custom of holding the banquet in the High School Gym- nasium. Every o11e seemingly enjoyed it and we hope the coming classes will follow our example. Dorothy Kutter Caroline Scheidenhelm Thirty-one The Class Pedigree VERYTHING in the world worthy of mention or consideration has a ped- igree-even a class. We, the clafs of 1922 of the Mendota Township High School, are a class worthy of more than ordinary consideration. Therefore it stands to reason that we have a pedigree well worth looking up. The pedigree of any person or thing must in the very nature of things, begin at the very be- ginning. Butwho can always trace the course of events back to their origin, with any sense of exactness? We might look back through the ages to the days when the gods held their mighty councils on Mount Olympus, and designing the destiny of men, first saw that in the year 1922, and in this month of June, a certain band of just so many individuals of just such characteristics as outs, should be absolulely essential to the progress and well-being of the world, and so immediately set into activity those particular forces that should, through the evolution of the centuries, develop the peculiar individualities that the needs of the universe should de- mand at this specific moment to keep it from utter destruction. V Nevertheless, we, the Class of 1922, have our pedigree, and in the revela- tions of character that come to light from day to day,it would bc easy, indeed, to put together a magnificent class tree if we felt so inclined. The girls have been very good about sharing all the fruits of their gathering with the boys, the boys have been equally as apt in eating of the fruit, both forbidden and other- wise, and falling back on the old apology, The girls tempted ne, and I ate! So We feel sure that we are all descendants of those first parents of the World. VVc have all, in football and basketball, and kindred pursuits shown some distinguishing characteriftics of barbarism, too, and several, through this, that, or the other mannerism, could be distinctly traced back to the days of the Cave Men and and the Vliff Dwellers of antiquity. In oratory, one showed decided traits of ancient Rome, while in art a11d science, and literature, the influence of Grecian ancestry is self-evident. In beauty and grace we feel that our girls are even akin to the old Greek goddesses themselves, in much of their wisdom seen in the secret, hidden replies given out in examinations, trace the influence of both Egyptian and Hindu philosophy upon the modern minds of our students. The wandering tendencies are very marked in the past lives of a few of us, and may yet be more clearly marked in the future. We feel we have outlived the worst of our warlike inclinations, although we have grave fears for the Juniors-all that live. One twelfth of us is French, one-sixth is Scotch, one-twelfth is Irish, one- sixth is English Cfor have we not the noted poet Emerson 's namefll one-twelfth is German, one-twelfth is Italian or Spanish, or something like that, Qwe have not been able to analyze the blood quite to the satisfaction of our instructor in Thirty-two Chemistryj 3 and the other third, so far as we can ascertain, is just plain, every- day American. So, however widely the branches of our class tree may spread, we assure you it is not to cover any multitude of sins in our pedigree, but to be broad enough and high enough for the aspirations and ambitions of all. While our history along this line has been one of which we might well be pardoned for boasting, the brighest entry of all will be for many years to come, and perhaps throughout all our lives, the four years of study in Mendota Town- ship High School. Irma Kohl Class Prophecy, I 932 S I was walking down a street in Chicago, I noticed the name, Madame Knowzit, Seeress, in small gold letters on one of the windows. I had gone but a few steps further before it occurred to me that within I might be able to learn something about my schoolmates of the class of 1922. I went back to the place, entered and found that I was in a large reception hall. As I stood looking around, Madame entered illld motioned that I should follow her into the next room. This was a large, luxuriantly furnished apartment illuminated with soft lights, the entire room had an Oriental-aspect. After I had seated myself before her table and Madame was looking at me expectantly, I asked, Can you show me where my classmates are and what they are doing now?', She nodded and beckoned to me to gaze into the crystal ball before her. As I looked, the whiteness began to disappear and I saw 011 the desert in California a group of people taking a movie picture. The manager was making violent gestures at the actors and as he turned around I saw that it was Edward Nolan. The star actress I perceived to be Marjorie Blanchard. Just then an automobile drove up and I saw that the chauffeur was Winn Davis who was driving for a wealthy lady in Los Angeles. Then the scene changed and I saw an office of a large firm in Chicago. On the door I read the word President and. as I looked at the occupants of the room, I recognized them as Virgil Gower, the president of the firm, a11d Lois Moore, presumably his wife. I the11 saw a theatre in another part of the city. As the curtain arose, the prima-donna, Margaret Marmion, of the Chicago Metro- politan Company entertained the audience. Next the world's famous trapeze performer, Clarance Phillabaum, held the spectators spellbound with his daring feats. As I chanced to look at the Symphony Orchestra, l recognized one of the drummers as Ottomar Schlesinger and one of the violinists as Viola Grosch. This did not surprise me very much because they had shown their ability in the High School orchestra. 1 Thirty-three Again the picture changed and I saw one of the large hospitals. A skillful operation was just being performed in which Mary Kathryn Cannon and Grace Cunnnings were the chief assistant nurses to the operating physicians. Another change came over the crystal and a large store in Sandwich ap- peared. Above the doorway hung the sign, Alfred Jacob, Proprietor of the Ladies' Specialty Shop. Farther down the street I noticed a placard adver- tising Reginald Henning's Dancing School. Then Madame moved her hand above the crystal and I saw the Sweeny Radio Station in Kansas City. This immediately reminded me that I had heard Wesley Niebergall and his wife, Irma Kohl, had gone there and that Wesley was head operator in the school. A short time before this he had received a radio message from the inhabitants of Mars. Still again the scene changed and I recognized Washington street in Men- dota. In the door of Schildberg's store stood the new proprietor, Gilbert Blotch. He was watching his wife, formerly Bertha Hoffman, coming across the street. Farther down the block, Florence McCauley and Mildred Theiss were conduct- ing a beauty parlor. Harry Kaufman, 11ow married to Gertrude Schildberg, was the general manager of the Standard Oil Station. I saw Mildred Trucken- brod come out of a bank, where she had a position as the president's secretary. Minnie Fessler was married and her husband was now the owner of one of the furniture stores of the city. I also saw that Zada McDonald was in charge of the East End Resturant. Then I saw the waiting room in the depot. I recognized Russell Dinsmore as a passanger for a Chicago train. He was reading the Chicago Tribune and some of the headlines attracted my attention. One of these announced that Gil- bert Easter, the editor of the paper, had addressed a group of noted men on the subject of superstition, another that Emerson Haas, the speaker of the House of the State Legislature, had won great, favor from the people through one of his recent bills. On another page I read that Alfred Ganz, a foremost designer of ladies' gowns, announced that Helen Harkness had contracted to be his leading model for the season 's styles, Virginia Bohy,, teacher of Latin at Chicago University, was entertaining Edna Masear, a missionary lately returned from Africa, that Audrey Boslough was conducting the column: 'fAdvice to the Love1orn, that Myrle Billings and Alma Shaw, kindergarten teachers, were awaiting a visit from their friend, Faith Morrison, a world famed artist, and that Courtney Nieman and his wife, Helen Bott, after a short visit in the city had just left for the University of Illinois where he held the position of athletic coach. Dorothea Kutter announced that she had accepted the position as matron of the George Junior Republic Organization at Breezy Point, California. Car- oline Scheidenhelm was a traveling companion for a wealthy elderly lady who was visiting in South America. Stephen Madden, the basketball king, was tour- Thirty-four ing Europe with his famous team. Seeing Africa on Foot was another head- line that attracted my notice. I read that Walter Rhea was the pedestrian named and that he was working his way through Africa. Now the scene changed again and I saw some farms and tow11s near Men- dota. Mary Dudgeon was carrying on scientific housekeeping near the city and Mary Josephine Tower was mistress of the Coss estate. Elmer Seheidenhelm and John Buck were rivals in raising hogs. Albert Bauer and George Montavon were scientific farmers near Compton. Juanita Morsch was a swimming in- structor in Triumph and Ida Hanson had charge of a bungalow in La Salle. Her favorite flower was still a rose. Gertrude 'Turk was the chief pastry maker at the Mueller Hotel in Earlville. 1 The crystal became clear and Madame nodded her head, signifying that the seanee was ended. I was pleased to see that the class of '22 had made such good places for themselves in the world and that many lasting friendships had resulted from the associations of our High School days.

Another year has raced away, And brought us to commencement day, When seniors, joyful, still are grieving, For they are sad at thoughts of leaving. The future beckons. Hopes and fears Assail them for the coming years, And so, 'twixt smiles and tears they say, Farewell, Old School, this bright June day. Margaret A. Sherwood Mr. Hardy Mr. Hardy, our assistant principal, came to us from South Bend, Washing- ton. We feel that South Bend 's loss was our gain. In previous years we have had good men, and we feel that Mr. Hardy ranks with the best of them. His suggestions have done much to improve the school spirit. Mr. Hardy helped to introduce the student council which has proved a success. He is a booster for every school activity. Men of his type will make old M. T. H. S. a bigger and better school.

T. H. S. Given: The brilliant Sophomore class which excelled in class spirit, school activities, athletics, and clean sportsmanship. To prove that: The Sophomore class is a benefit to the school. Proof: Wlien they were Freshmen, they chose Arthur Mans, president, Daniel Massey, vice-president, Lucille Moore, secretary and treasurer and Mr. Yates the class adviser. CThese students had great ability for holding those offices, for under their leadership the class prospered in every way. Four students were on the honor roll. They answered the call of athletics for two of their men re- ceived football letters and they held third place in the inter-class handicap track meet.J The pennant was designed by one of their students Coriginality precedes all others, and it is fresh and genuineb. The colors chosen are orange and black. tPrinceton college, a distinguished school has selected these colors. Ar- tists claim that no prettier colors could blend as well as the orange and the black.D They defeated that dreaded Sophomore class in a football game with a score of 6 to 0. Then they were greater in athletics than the Sophomore class. C Quantities which are of the same kind are either equal to, lesser than, or greater than.j Since they were not equal to or lesser than they must be greater than. Our officers in our Sophomore year were James VVitte, presidentg Lucile Moore, vice-president, Esther Miller, secretary, Margaret Cooper, treasurer and Mr. Yale the class adviser. tTheir talent along their official lines was proven. Four members were on the honor roll. Their football men were first in the interclass games. Even they outdid the Seniors with a score of 12 to 0. The class elected James Witte, Esther Miller and Edward Schwartz for members of the student councilj Hence the Sophomore class fulfills the necessary conditions. The Class of '24, in 1921, 1922 was up to date, excelled all other classes, and was a great benefit to the WI. T. H. S. May it always continue to do so. ' Quod Erat demonstrandum.

At nine o'clock school was called and after an introduction to the faculty, ten minute classes were held. The first few weeks of school the upper classmen treated us very rudely by gazing at us and by smiling aloud every time we entered the wrong classroom. VVe have forgiven them for this rudeness because of the kindness they have shown us since then, by directing us to our classrooms when we were lost. This was especially true the first few weeks of school when the building was still strange to us. We held our first meeting for the purpose of electing officers, Oct. 26, 1921, Williani NVoods was chosen president, Dorothy O'Neill, vice-presidentg and Helen Wells, secretary and treasurer. At this same meeting we decided to begin our high school career under the guidance of Miss Barnett. XVhen the time came for electing members for the Student Council, we decided that VVi1liam VVoods, Isabel Eckert and Margaret Schmidt should represent the Freshmen Class. VVe know that they have done their part in the work of this Council. NVhen choosing class colors we had the courage to select green and white, although we knew that the upper classmcn would laugh at us. Our class was Well represented in athletics and we are proud of the fact that we have three letter men among us in our Freshman year. This is just the beginning of the history of our high school career, and we hope to add much to it in years to come. Mary Miller ,.....?... . Who 's alive? We're alive! One nine Two five. Fifty ANY FRESHMAN Mother had a little son She sent to school one day, And begged of all the teachers To keep the girls away. But sonny was so very cute The girls for him did fall, They vamped him late and early, The old ones worst of all. They took him auto-riding Up and down the town, And when they had him going They simply turned him down! And then, when test day came along His head was all a-whirl, He never heard of Caesar Or anything but girl. But Mother soon got busy And fixed her pride and joyg For now he never looks at girls, This sad but wiser boy. Mildred Kohl. In the North End Schoolhouse Not very far away, In an empty suitcase, The Freshman pennant lay. And when a little Freshman Had made an awful howl, A Sophomore in much anger Struck him with a towel. Vilhen the crying Freshman Had nearly ceased to bawl. The Janitor found the pennant And hung it on the wall. Edward Boisdorf. Fifty-one Wireless Telegrapfzy MUNG the latest inventions of the time, wireless has probably taken the greatest step toward improvement. The world war brought about much of this improvement. Before the war the radio phone was just in its infancy as all other inventions are at the time of invention. After the war it was used to a slight extent but. it has been during the last year that the ,greatest step to- ward its use has been taken. At present there are radio phone broadcasting sta- tions in many of the large eities. These stations are used to broadcast concerts. church services, educational talks. market and weather reports and to carry on experimental work. The picture at the left is that of the receiving set. This set was installed in the High School a11d was used during the fifteen 1ni11ute period to receive musie which was sent out by the local telephone company. The set i11 use there is an Amateur Radio phone and the music was transmitted from a vietrola which was made in the nianual training shops of the High School. Although the dis- tance was not far in this case the same receiving set is used to receive the broad- casts from high power stations at distances such as Schenectady, New York: Newark. New Jersey, Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, Detroit, Michigan, Chicago, Ill- ,inoisg Dallas, Texas, Denver, Colorado, and many other places. Conversations from the steamship America,', while four hundred miles out from New York have also been heard. The picture at the right is that of the transmitter. This transmitter is the common amateur wireless telegraph instrument and cannot be used to transmit music and other phone work. This set has been heard at some very distant points. the greatest of these being San Antonio, Texas, which is about 1,100 miles from Mendota. Other places of note where the signals from this station have either been heard, or where the two stations worked back and forth are, Brooklyn, New Yorkg Austin. Texasg Agincourt. Ontario, ffanada, and Douglas, VVyoming. Other places of lesser distance are too numerous to mention. From this. one can get an idea of a little of the work of amateur wireless stations. Wesley J.

Two girls under the super- vision of the teacher planned the menus, assigned the work to the other members ot' the class a11d served for a week at a time. In connection with this the girls worked out the large quantity recipes and figured out the cost of each dishg the food was sold at cost. The girls kept an account book which was balanced and signed at the end of the week and handed over to the next committee. The cafeteria work proved to be a definite and interesting projectg the many prob- lems involved were of real cducative value. The girls learned something of marketing and large quantity cookingg they found real need for budgets and accounts, so the application of this to house management is easy illlll reasonable: they learned a little of how dieteties should be used to pla11 meals and help maintain health, and the aesthetic side was brought out through discussions about, how to make the food attractive and appetizing. The 111ost important educative value, however was its effect upon the de- velopment of the girls themselves. 'The situation was always a social oneg the girls had to work together. Some showed real executive ability and considerable initiative. The girls were responsible for the food served and learned to accept cheerfully both the compliments and the adverse criticisms of the students. The cafeteria work was planned so that it measured up to three standardsg it contributed something educative every day to each girly the members of the class received all the beneficial experience which comes from the executive side of the work: and it was so conducted as to have an influence on the food habits of the school as a whole. Fifty-three Agricultural Department HERE have been some changes in the Agricultural Department this year. 'The ai1n of the department is to have more students take an interest in the Ag. work, and to make the boys better fitted for their farm work. The depart- ment also has extended help to those that needed it. Four different courses are offered. The first eou1'se takes up farm soils, and crops. This course is especially adapted to the boys in the Freshman class, and takes up the care, use, and the planting of farm crops. It also takes up the various kinds of soils in the community and how to correct soil acidity, also many other soil problems. The subject Horticulture takes up the care of the fruit trees and shrubs on the farm. The second course is Animal Husbandry. It deals with the care and the different breeds of farm animals. It also includes rope tying and splicing. This course is for the boys who have had one year of Agriculture. The third course is Farm Mechanics. That is given for the third year course. It takes up the care, use, and the different kinds of machinery. The fourth year course is Farm Management, and deals with the management, and the beautifying of the farmstead. Farm accounts are also given so as to give the boys an insight into the farm business. Along with each course a project must be taken during the summer vacation to extend over a period of six months. Records must be kept and a complete report handed in at the close of the work. The agriculture department had their first exhibit at the Fair this year. The department was handicapped a great deal because of the lack of space. The exhibit consisted of the equipment, text books, bulletins, feeds and weeds, that trouble the farmers in the community. The walls were lined with pictures and charts of the farm a11i1nals. 'This fall the department is planning a more exten- sive exhibit on some of the work done by the department this past year. Feb. 2nd and 3rd the department held its annual Farmers' Institute at the High School. Thursday afternoon Mr. C. C. Compton talked on Insect Pests and How They Affect the Farmer, and Mr. Wm. Webb gave a very interesting talk on Soils and the Maintenance of Soil Fertility. Thursday evening there Fifty-four was a joint inovting whit-h was cnjoyod hy all.

The fol- lowing officers we1'e elected: Ralph Faber, President. Ottomar Schlesinger, Vice-President. Albert Bauer, Treasurer. Stanley Smith, Secretary. Clarence Bailey, Sargeant at Arms. , The object of the Club is to improve the social conditions of its members, and for the advancement of scientific agriculture in the community. The club co-operated very closely throughout the year, with the Ag. depart- ment. Numerous meetings were held and parties given. The boys formed a basket ball team, and played every Wednesday evening. The principal social event of the year was the fathers' and sons' banquet, which was held on Friday evening,Feb. 24th. The purpose of the banquet was to create a greater interest on the part of the fathers, as to the work being done i11 the Ag. Dept. The banquet was prepared and served in the sewing room by Miss VVhitford and six girls. The outside guests were Messrs. Haight, Haskell, Hardy. Beebe and Carmicheal. Mr. R. E. Faber. President of the Club, was toastmaster. Those called upon to give talks were Messrs. Geo. Scheidenhelm. Beebe. Carmieheal and Yale. Each father placed a carnation in the lapel of his coat to show that he attended the banquet. After the banquet Mr. Carmicheal talked to the farmers of the community on Hogs and Hog Feeding. The Club is looking ahead to greater activity next. year. BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS The Agricultural Department of our high school has charge of all the club work in and about Mendota. The aims of the Clubs are to encourage the pro- duction of better live stock and to interest the Boys and Girls in the Agricul- tural prohlcn s on the farm. The first Club was started last year. Nine members carried on their project, kept all records, and showed their gilts at the Fair. The exhibit eon- Fifly-eight sisted of six pure bred Hampshire gilts, and three pure bred Poland China gilts. Miss Charlotte Davis won lst and the Silver Loving Cup donated by the La Salle County Hampshire Breeders' Association. Florus Davis, second, Winn Davis, third, Karl Betz, fourth, Gabriel Betz, fifth, and Violet Harris, sixth. In the Poland China Class, Lawrence Amphar won first and the silver loving cup donated by the La Salle County Poland China Breeders' Associa- tion. Clayton Truckenbrod, second, and Calc Prescott, third. This year a Sow and Litter Club was formed very early consisting of fourteen members. The members have been feeding their sows and litters since before the Ist of March. A Baby Beef Club has also been formed this year. The aim of the club is for each member to feed a baby beef until it is in prime show condition. A pig club is also being formed for all Boys and Girls in the community, that are not eligible for the Sow and Litter club. The aim is to have from twenty to thirty boys and girls in the club. All the Clubs will terminate their work by showing at the Mendota Agri- cultural Fair, where attractive prizes will be awarded to the winners. THE ART CLUB HE reason that the art classes of this year have progressed as far as they have is probably due to the fact that everybody was truly interested and en- thusiastic over the work, especially the students of General art. None had the idea, or if so, it was soon forgotten, of taking Art just for the credit, which every one seems to think is such an easy one. We are not talented, but I think I can safely say that each has tried. and done his best. A man by the name of Matthews once said, HA pound of energy with an ounce of talent does more than a pound of tale11t with an ounce of energy. The work of the General Art, Class, which, I think is by far the more inter- esting, has been varied throughout the year. The beginning of the year we started with the usual blocks, cubes, pyramids etc. The rest of the semester we endeavored to do commercial art, such as making posters for different business concerns. This included ads for the Santa Fe Trail, animal, bird, and land- scape posters, and also a little printing now and the11 to break the monotony of posters. The second semester we devoted a great deal of time to perspective and then again took up commercial work and made posters for the town florist, Sher' win Williams Paint, etc. VVe also spent some time 011 work for the annual. The remaining few weeks we will spend on different kinds of craft work. The Domestic Art Class made designs for dress material, table runners, em- broidery dresses, etc., the first semester. The second semester they did interior decoration. They started by making plans for a house and then furnished the rooms. Every one thought this was interesting and thought it would be fun to plan the decoration for their own rooms at home. Mildred Kohl. , Fifty-nine HOME ECONOMICS CLUB At the beginning of the year a new organization termed the Home lico- nomies t'lub was formed. The object of this elub, as stated in the constitution, is To diseuss problems and topic-s of interest to Home Eeonomiesf' lt also provides that the elub shall be eomposed of girls who are taking Fooking or Sewing during the term. During the first. semester the girls were ente1'tai11ed by the 'AAQ t'lub boys at a. traek meet. Later this favor was returned by an evening spent in progres- sive Cootie.l' At several of the basketball games the girls sold popeorn and eandy, the n1o11ey thus obtained being' used to entertain their mothers at a musieal entertainment, March 2-lth. At this time a two eourse luncheon was served. Vllith a membership of fifty girls, this Club has proven to be a good, live organization with splendid spirit. This Club has given those who are especially interested in Household Seienee an opportunity to get better aequainted with it for High Sehool girls. Sixty A W .- J 43 saw 9 --T .

'l'he Vlub as founded will earry out or diseuss any seientifie problems or experiments that may be of interest to members. Some of the meetings are purely soeial. During: the last semester many interesting diseussions and experiments were held, as well as numerous soeial gatherings. The first meeting' oeeurred l+'ebruary 28. at whieh time twelve persons signed as t'harter Members of the Soeiety. The officers eleeted were: Emerson Haas, Presidentg Talbot Hood, Vice-Presidentg John Buek, Secretary-Treasurer. Since we have organized our membership has steadily inereased. At the present time we have an enrollment of fifty-four members. all of whieh are keenly interested in the large field of Seienee. The Club holds its meetings every two weeks on Tuesday evenings after sehool. No membership fees are asked. All neeessary expenses are shared equally by the n1embe1's. Our programs are always very interesting. Among the interesting topies diseussed we find, Radium wonders and laws of physies. Don 't be surprised if you hear that Frank Reiehardt has found a new way to make radium, or Max Goebel has developed into a second Isaae Newton. Every member is a star seientist and we trust. our good works will follow ns, as did the works of the seientists that eame before us. V John Buek, See'y.

Nirflif-1'igl1I DEAWRWTIC5 The funior Class Play The Seniors, because of their superior abilities and wide-scope of intelli- gence, cannot be fair critics of the Junior Class Play. Neither can the opinion of the Juniors be accepted, for they are apt to be slightly prejudiced. There- fore we must turn to an impartial judge for a just criticism of the play. The following' article was taken from the Sun-Bulletin. Each person who appeared in the play took his part in a most efficient manner. The Junior class play, 'Mr. Bob,' played to a large house Friday after- noon and evening and was declared by the audience to be one of the best affairs of its kind. About 25150.00 was realized from the play. The plot was laid in a new and novel manner. Philip Rayson, a young man interested in yacht racing, is informed by his cousin, Kitty Rogers, that her friend, whom she calls 'Bob,' is coming for a visit and that he should fix up the room for her friend. Philip, who takes it for granted that 'Bob' is a man, fills the room with cigars, pipes, tennis rackets and the things interesting to a man. His aunt, Rebecca Luke, has taken up the fad of caring for destitute cats, which are the cause of several annoying affairs. Unknown to the others, she sends for an architect to make plans for building part of the house into an abode for homeless eats, and instructs the butler and maid to keep this quiet. Philip also has a friend coming for a visit and tells his cousin to entertain him when he arrives. ' Correspondence has been under way with a lawyer in connection with a will left by one of ,their relatives. The lawyer comes and is mistaken by Philip for Marion's friend. Mrs. Luke and the butler and maid mistake him for the architect, and Marion mistakes him for Philip 's friend. He has a hard time trying to tell who he is and at last in disgust he decides to take the part of whoever he is called. He gets in bad every way he turns and thinks he is with a house full of lunatics, and tries to humor them, getting into more trouble. Mat- ters are at last straightened out and the play closes with peace restored. The entire play was filled with humor and held the interest of the large audience throughout the program. - THE CAST Scrcnfy Rebecca Luke .. Jenkins ....... Patty ..........

The story centers about the initiation stunt which Slats has to perform before he is admitted to a fraternity. He is attending a house-party given by Mrs. .Phillips in honor of her niece, Polly. Seventy-two While here, Slats is required to take something which does not belong to him. He cannot explain until he receives the message, Time's up. Mr. Remington confiscates the gold vanity-ease belonging to Mrs. Phillips. He is suspected by his fiancee, Polly, and by Stephen VVard, an amateur detective, because of certain suspicious happenings. A pendant also disappears. Mr. Foster, a real detective, tries to find the thief. All clues lead to 'tSlats, who is finally arrested. Polly is distrewed and perplexed, but she promises to marry Slats even if he is imprisoned for twenty years. 'Two college men appear with the message Times up,', and explain about the vanity ease. Foster refuses to re- lease Slats because he believes he is the one whom he has been looking for so long. Kennedy then rushes in and brings the glad news that the thief who stole the pendant has been caught. Every one but Foster is happy. i QQ was ' '25, TooTnpacKs 5 ' f Dish es VVATQ F IO 6 H ,Z 6 6 11' . g 1 ' is 'Wi Q., Qs 2 :QW ti of! up 5545 I -YQYQSOR ,ted +694 wean gl? if as 9 Bird ?

June 8, 1921 The J unior-Senior Prom was held on Julie 8. The festivities started with a picnic at Starved Rock. The day was spent in enjoying the numerous amuse- ments provided. For a while there was great consternation in camp because of the non-arrival of part of the lunch. However when the last relay arrived all pangs of hunger were overshadowed by anticipation when we beheld the good things we were S0011 to enjoy. By five o'clock all had departed for the banquet to be held in the High School Gym. The class colors combined with purple and white were used for decoration. At 6:30 a banquet was served in honor of the departing class. Toasts were given by Harold Potter, Edward Nolan, Elmer Schaller, Josephine Miller, Miss Coffey and Miss Nussle, Miss Cora Miller, a former instructor, also responded. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. Very good music was fur- nished by Bicrn1an's Orchestra. Even with the extra hour provided by the Board of Education the time seemed all too short until we had to depart for home. By means of this en- tertainment the class of '22 wished to show their good will toward the class of '21. HE social activities of our school have been extended and enjoyed to the utmost, this past year. The greatest praise is due Mr. Hardy, who has made so many of these social functions possible. At the beginning of the year we were promised at least one dance and one party a month, to be held on Friday nights. Mr. Hardy worked diligently to have the best entertainment possible, provided for us at these activities. Social committees were appointed to take charge of each party or dance. These committees, under the direction of Mr. Hardy, took charge of the refresh- ments and obtained the orchestra. Every dance and party was greatly enjoyed by those attending. All through the year, a friendly atmosphere prevailed, due in a great measure to our fre- quent social functions. We looked forward with delight to the school socials. The first dancing party of the season was held Friday evening Oct. 27, when all the witches and other spirits attendant on Hallowe'en assembled at the High School Gym. Every one appeared in costume.

The games played were 'tCootie, Ring Around the Rosy, Fruit Basket, and others of equal interest to children. The lunch of all day suckers was character- istic of the costumes. On Thursday night, Dee. 22, before our Christmas vacation a dance was enjoyed by about 60 people. The students and parents mingled together during the evening, every one getting acquainted with their neighbors. On the stage a large Christmas tree had been very prettily decorated which made the oc- casion a more enjoyable one. Dancing was enjoyed until 11:00 o'cloek. Another dance was held Friday, Jan. 20. Although exams were near at hand, a large number were present. Every one forgot their worries and had a most enjoyable time. . Our next social activity was in the form of a Valentine Dance, Feb. 17th. The gym was prettily decorated for the occasion. This was one of our most en- joyable dancing parties. It was impossible for any members of the faculty to be present at this dance, but the students were highly complimented for the orderly way in which they managed this activity, delegated to them. Juanita Morsch Ida Hansen . If you loiter in the hallways, If you sit upon the stairs, If you walk upon the shrubb'ry, If you stand about in pairs, You must be extremely careful, And look cautiously about, Else the faculty will get you, If you don't watch out! If you whisper in the Study Hall, Or if on your desk you sleep, And never mind the teacher's rules, Nor heed them when they speak, Then it 's time for you to mend your ways, And turn around about, Or the faculty 'ull git you, If you don't watch out.

Nicholas, a teacher who deserves much credit for her untiring work with the students. The first and best division is the Boy's Chorus, the class numbering seventeen. They have worked hard this year, and have appeared twice before the Assembly, thrice during the Farmers, Institute, and as the Blackbird Choristers in the High School Minstrel. 'lhey have been louilly applangled for. thus showing that the '4Boy's Chorus is not really a fake. Out of the seventeen singers, t'The Senior Four' Was selected for special work. They appeared in the Minstrel as the VVash Board Quartet. They also tuned up again for Ulass Day. flood-by, Senior Quartet, you've done your part this year. The largest class in the High School is the Girls' Chorus, which numbers thirty-nine. They also have done considerable Work. W'e wish you a good time, girls, in your musical career. Our music department has grown in some respects since the last year, and it is the wish of all that more will take an interest in this department next year. Scren1y4Wght TRLC. ILUNKE .

Several children were playing with their dolls on the front porch of a house set rather well back from the street. They grew boisterous in their play and their mother called, Children, don't be so noisy, you know daddy is sick. After awhile they became tired of playing so quietly and putting away their things, went off down the street. Two neighbors came down the sidewalk, deeply interested in conversation with each other. g Just as they were passing the Warrens' house, each of them suddenly stopped and said, Oh Mrs. Brown! do look! See that black crepe on the front door? Poor Mrs. Warren, I feel so sorry for her. Yes, isn't it sad, and all those children, too. Thereupon the two good ladies hurried oif to spread the news about the town. They were quite successful in their mission, and before long the whole village knew of and had discussed the death of one of their prominent fellow citizens. Early next morning, Mrs. Brown felt it her duty to eall, and set forth upon a trip of condolence to the bereaved widow. As she saw Mrs. Warren in the back yard airing some blankets, she went out to join her. Is there any- thing I can do to help you? she asked sadly. Mrs. Warren looked slightly puzzled, but answered, Why no, I think not. I am airing these blankets as the Weather is so warm, for John will not need them now. Thank goodness. Blankets are such a bother. Oh-er-yes, yes, certainly, stammered Mrs. Brown. I must be going. I'm sorry you must go so soon. This is the first time I have had to myself for several days. It is quite a relief. Good-bye, said Mrs. Brown abruptly, and hastened off to tell her friends of the shocking manner in which Mrs. Warren treated her husband's death. You may be sure it lost nothing in the telling. Next morning, Mrs. Smith decided to call and offer her sympathy and, ineidently, to satisfy her curiosity. She met Mrs. Warren in the front yard and immediately proceeded to the point. My dear Mrs. VVarren, I am so sorry for you. Is there nothing I can do to help? What does she want? She wouldn't offer to help if she didn't want something, thought Mrs. Warren. Aloud she said, I think not. I am not as busy as I have been, and I'm certainly glad to have some time to rest. We have had to be so quiet for such a long time, and I have not had a chance to Eighty-one go anywhere. I hope to return some calls soon. To say that Mrs. Smith was shocked would be putting it mildly. Goodby, I must be going, she managed to say and beat a quick retreat. Of course, before long every one in town knew of Mrs. Warren 's strange words. Opinions differed as to the cause but most of them were that her husband 's death had unsettled her mind. Finally the minister took it upon himself to look into the matter. Where- with he immediately set out. He knocked at the door which was opened by Mrs. Warren, herself. The minister was more than slightly embarrassed, but after several minutes of general conversation, he began, Ahern, er- about this matter of-er-your unfortunate bereavement, I wish to-er-extend my sincere- -,' Just then he suddenly stopped and half rose from his chair, his face white as a sheet, his eyes bulging out and his mouth open. He was not a superstitious man, but for an instant or two he sincerely believed in ghosts, for there in the doorway stood thc object of his proffered sympathy Mr. VVarrcn himself ! How are you, Reverend, he said, advancing toward him. Fine, er-fine, thank you, answered the minister mechanically, still staring at him. Why, Reverend, you look pale. Are you sick? Yes-er-I mean no, only a bit faint. It was such a shock. I understood Brother Warren had-ahem-been taken from our midst. I don't think I quite understand you, said Mrs. Warren. Sister Smith said she and Sister Brown saw black crepe on your door and wc naturally came to the conclusion that Brother Warren had succumbed to the illness from which he had been suffering. In fact my mind is still a trifle hazy concerning the affair. 77 Mrs. XVarren rose and went out to the front door. There hung a long black scarf that the children had been using as a wrap for their dolls. When she returned and told them what she had seen the minister's face was a sight to behold. Suddenly the funny side of the situation struck Mrs. Warren and she laughed until she cried. The minister grinned sheepishly and went off to in- form his fellow townsmen that they had madega slight mistake and that Brother VVarren, instead of being dead, had almost recovered.

JACK Mr. Jaek is a man well known to all students of Mendota Township High Sehool and alumni of reeent years. In his four years as teacher of Manual Training and eoaeh of athletics in our sehool he has been very successful and proved to be 21 ntan of whom we are proud. ln the year past Mr. Jael: encountered ntany difficulties, in developing athletic- teams to represent our sehool. The chief obstacles were injuries to letter men and lack of experieneed material. Nevertheless Mr. Jack was con- stantly instilling pep and eourage into his men. That is the kind of a man we like in this school, one who ean keep smiling when the odds are all against him. lf Mr. Jack is here again next fall the athletic' standards of Mendota Township lligh School will never be lowered, but will be brought to the front more than ever before. VVe are all with you Mr. Jaek, and you in turn have given your best to us and our sehool. Foaeh Jaek and all our athletes go on the football field or basketball floor with the spirit of do or die.

S. has ever had, deserves mention because of the help he gave to build up the teams. John was not eli- gible to compete against other schools, but he was the main factor in the Senior Class team. Last fall when he had the misfortune of breaking his collar bone, 10070 sympathy went out to him. Competition in Athletics Fompetition in athletics demands the finest qualities: grit, skill, self-control, endurance, and initiative, all of which go to make up true sportsmanship. Inter classtournaments are held in Football, Basketball and Track, which bring- out the best effort of every boy who takes part-which really help in promoting a good understanding between the athletes to respect the rights and privileges of their opponents. Great rivalry exists between these class teams and every ounce of energy and skill is put forth to win. It might be well to mention that the boy who participates in these class games as well as represents his school lnust do satisfactory work in class before he may compete on a team. Here we see the value of athletics to the student who would like te play on the teams but puts in little time preparing' his subjects. C. A. Jack Eighty-seven Football Sandwich Here In the fall of 1921, Coach Jack, ably assisted by Mr. Yale, started the work of drilling a bunch of raw material into a smooth running football machine. Only five regulars remained from the 1920 team. The practice was going pretty fair when Captain Potter was forced to leave school. This loss weakened the team considerably. In the first game of the season with Sandwich, here, the boys showed the fight by holding their heavier opponents to a scoreless tie. At every stage of the game our boys fought them to a standstill and at times seemed to have a little the best of them. Princeton, 54 to 0 On Saturday, October 8, Coach Jack and the team left for Princeton where they were defeated by that aggregation, Mendota held the line plunging Prince- ton team to a score of 14 to 0 the first half. In the last half Princeton opened up with a series of end runs, that our boys could not stop, and they piled up a score of 54 to 0. Princeton's men were old football men that played together former years, which gave them an advantage over Mendota 's inexperienced eleven. La Salle Football Game In November the La Salle team journeyed to Mendota with the idea of run- ning over us, but they soon had that taken out of their heads for the old team played real football. Dan put a beautiful placement kick over the bars drawing the first blood of the game. La Salle fought hard but were unable to score the first half. In the second half La Salle scored two hotly contested touchdowns and one rafety due to a blocked punt. The game ended 14 to 3 in favor of LaSalle but this was the first time in three years that Mendota held them to such a low score. E ighty-nine .'-1 Sandwich Game 7 to 0 The second game with Sandwich was played at Sandwich. In the first few minutes of play our boys were rushed off their feet by the heavy Sandwich backs which caused Sandwich to get the only touchdown of the game. Then the team buckled down to business, but because of fumbles at critical moments, they were unable to score. The team fought a hard, consistent game. Kewanee Football Mendota won its first victory of the season against Kewaneo. The game was a fine exhibition of passing as all but one of Mendota's touchdowns was the direct consequence of a forward pass. Both teams fought hard throughout the entire contest. Mendota was the first to score, working the ball down the field in fine shape. Upon reaching the twenty yard line they successfully executed an opposite end pass, Madden to Nieman, which resulted in a touchdown. The Kcwanee team came back strong with a series of line plunges, which netted them a touchdown. This tied the score but it was not long before the Mendota aggregation began to show their superiority by scoring almost at will. The game ended with the score standing 35 to 7 in favor of the home boys. Dixon Football Game Nov. 12th, the heavy Dixon aggregation met our lighter eleven on the local gridiron. The day was far from an ideal football day. The field was one big mire of mud and slush. But true to the old spirit the team came out to win even against odds. The fellows put up a. glorious battle but in the second quarter the heavy Dixon boys pushed across for a touchdown. In the second half the old fight was still in the team but again the 'tHea.vy Boys pushed over for another counter. In the same period of play they held for a safety, the final tally of the game, making the score 14 to 0. Although the score was against our fellows, they let the Dixon boys know they were hard, clean fighters, with the real school spirit.

Ile was a good man to baek up the line. He was a sure taekler and ran good interference for his team mates. Seheidenhelm-Back Field Allen, a Freshman. was one of the main stays of the team. Next year will find him one of Mendota 's best playing' back field men. Gower-End Virgil was a new man this year but played a eonsistent game at end. A good taekler and a hard worker. Xin Cty-t lm L.

Hill-Tackle Bill, a tackle, was a demon when it came to breaking up the other team's play. Many times he broke through the opponents line and stopped their play before theyiwere well started. Courtney L. Nieman llourtney Nieman was elected by the student body as Business Manager for Basketball. He was one of the best managers we have ever had always doing what was best for the morale of the team. llourtney was always willing to do what was asked of him and did it cheer- fully and for the good of the school. He was always on the field taking tickets or helping take care of the team. Louie Blotch Louie is one of the young men that our High School is proud of. He has shown that he has the real school spirit in him. Not being able to take active part in athletics did not stunt his interest in them. No man on the team was more faithful than Louie. He seldom missed a night practice in either football or basketball. This spring he was elected manager of the track team. Being an old star, he is well-fitted for thc position and we know he will give his best for the good of the team. Ninety-four I l i I I 1 i I 2 I I l I . l I 'vga' Basketball Spring Valley After putting aside football for another year, Coach Jack began immed- iately on the work of whipping a basket-ball team into shape. This was no easy task, as there was only one of the last year 's team left 011 the squad. Here Coach Jack proved his ability for with o11ly a short time for practice tl1e team journeyed to Spring Valley, and a victory, 9-5, to start the season on. This game was not a very fast one, although the boys learned much and the following week, Coach Jack, with the co-operation of the boys, began work in earnest to perfect a smooth-running machine with which to win more victories. Tiskilwa. Here The boys played Tiskilwa at Mendota for the second game of the season. A fair improvement in the playing of our team was evident by the defeat handed out to Tiskilwa basketeers. It was a hard fought and well-contested game throughout, Mendota staging a rally in the last quarter that einched the game. Clean play and good sportsmanship were manifested throughout the entire game by the members of both teams. Since Tiskilwa lost, 17-12, their actions were more commendable than ever. - Earlville There 01108 more Mendota journeyed to Earlville, only to be beaten by that ag- gregation 28-10. The Mendota squad was still somewhat inexperienced while the Earlville team had played together for three successive years. Playing against the double handicap of a strange floor and a veteran team, the Mendota boys fought for all they were worth, but were unable to make baskets. In the first half the two teams were winning neck and neck, l10lih0l' one being able to forge ahead. And although Earlville finally attained a winning lead the Mendota boys were dangerous up until the end of the game. This spirit of never quit until the whistle blows is the thing that we would like to instill i11to every ac- tivity participated in by the Mendota High School whether scholastic or athletic. Kewanee CJan. 63 One of the best games of this season was played at the High School gym- nasium. Whcn the two teams appeared on the floor for practice, the oppon- ents had our team outreached and this was a great help to them. The game started off with fast work between both teams and showed team work. The half ended with Kewanee ahead 9 to 3. Ninety-seven The second half started out with Mendota making baskets and outplaying their opponents. The High School team played a hard and fast game, but were unable to overcome the lead. The game ended 12 to 11 in Kewanee favor. i Dixon There On January 13, our boys traveled to Dixon, returning with the small end of the score. The Dixon quintet had good team work and managed to acquire a lead in thc first half that the home boys could not overtake. Both teams played hard and fast with not a sign of rough play to be observed at any stage of the game. Dixon started the scoring with a good exhibition of working the ball down the floor. Mendota did not get a good start but in the last half made more points than Dixon, but the lead acquired by Dixon in the first half en- abled them to finish the game still ahead by the count of 23-13. La Salle Here The score indicates what kind of a game this was. There was a. prevailing fighting spirit shown in this game by the Mendota quintet. It is something un- usual to defeat a La Salle team, for they are always strong. Madden of Mendota got the jump on them by caging a basket from the center of the floor. Each Mendota man fighting to win, put this game over. It was a clean alld real game of basketball. Perhaps Captain Madden 's accuracy at the basket was the out-standing feature, as he caged twelve of the fourteen points made. The final score was very close, 14-12. Mendota at Tiskilfwa, 10-9 Mendota won from Tiskilwa by a score of 10-9 in one of the best games of the season. The game was marked by the close guarding of both teams. Mendota could work the ball to the opponents' goal at will but poor shooting kept the score close throughout the game. The poor shooting of baskets no doubt was due to poor lights. Nieman and Madden shared the honors in this game both caging two field goals. Madden won the game by free throws. Dixon Here Mendota evened up the honors with the Dixon quintet on our floor for this season by defeating them, nineteen to thirteen. When the game opened it could be plainly seen that the teams were on a par and that it was nobody 's game. It was a game where the first team to show signs of weakening, would be snowed under, but both teams fought with a determination, and perhaps this game with the LaSalle game was the fastest and most interesting game played at home this vear. Ninety-eight In the second half Mendota came back strong as ever and Dixon was never' within four points of Mendota.. Faptain Madden had his stride that night and scored nine points, with a running partner like Nieman and excellent guarding' by Massey and Boisdorf, Mendota had no fear. Final score, 19-13. La Salle Th ere NVhen Mendota traveled to La Salle, the La Salle team was keyed up for revenge. Perhaps Mendota did not realize the situation. La Salle secured a good lead and held it all through the game. It was a very slow game, neither side playing good basketball, on accou11t of the fouls called on both sides. The final score. 33-12. Tonica Here The Mendota squad certainly showed the real stuff in the 'Tonica game on our floor. When both teams appeared on the floor the bets were certainly against Mendota if looks counted. Tonica had a more evenly matched team than Mendota. But size or looks did not count. this time. The Mendota quintet played a clean, scrappy game, fighting for every point that gave them the lead. Excellent guarding by Boisdorf and Massey was a great factor in winning this game. The score, which was 20 to 8, shows that Tonica received a good indis- putable beating. 4 Kewanee On February 6th, our boys traveled to Kewanee for our return game, as they had beaten us on our home floor, 14-13. We found out that it had not been altogether luck as they repeated the dose, only administerng it a little stronger than before, namely 33-16. We might add that the boys were at a slight disadvantage on account of the small floor encountered there, but we were beat so we will take our medicine and keep still, only to try harder next time. Streator Tournament Mendota drew Marseilles for the opening game of the tournament. Ac- cording to the dope Mendota should have had an easy victory here. When the Mendota quintet left Mendota they were determined to win this game, in spite of their handicap by the loss of Captain Madden. The game was called at seven fifteen. Both teams were heartily applauded but Mendota was the fav- N inety-nine oi-ed team all through the game. The game was perhaps the best and closest of the tournament. It was a. scrap all the way through, but in Van Horbuke of Marseilles lay the secret of their victory. He is a center that any team could be proud of. He totaled seven field goals during the game. As the game pro- gressed it was evident that Mendota was fighting a losing battle, but due to Potter 's never dying spirit and fine playing, the team was able to cut Marseilles' lead down ten points in the last quarter. The final score being 23-10. Princeton Here Something went wrong in this Princeton game. It was very slow all the way through. the Mendota team seemed to lack the necessary pep. For some reason or other we could not get started or shake that slow feeling off. In the first half Mendota had a lead of seven to three. Then Princeton started to pick up. When the final whistle blew the score was tied, after a minute's rest the game was carried on. Princeton won by throwing a free throw in the last five minutes. Perhaps over-confidence lost this game for us. The game ended 13-12. Princeton Princeton won their second game from Mendota by score of 22-21. Mendota led in the first half but just as the whistle blew Princeton caged a basket that put them one point ahead. 'This no doubt was the hard luck game of the year. Massey starred making three field goals and two free throws. Polo vs. Mendota at Freeport Tournament Mendota. went to the District tournament- this year at Freeport. Mendota played Polo, a fast team from the Northern part of the State. The game was VVOII by Polo by a score of 23-9. The third quarter ended with a score of 9 to 11 in favor of the opponents. In the fourth quarter Polo made 11 points which gave them the game and eliminated Mendota from the Tournament. Mendota's inability to throw free throws lost them the game. Earlville at Mendota, 23-16 Earlville and Mendota teams played a post season game which might be classed as a small tournament. 'Three games being played, Boy Scouts, Mendota High and Town teams. The games were good and fast and Earlville won the Boy Scout and High School games but went down to defeat with the town team. The Earlville High team was one of the fastest teams seen on the floor this year. The Mendota Boys put up a good game but could not stop the Earlville boys.

A savings ac- count will counteract wastefulness, insure against poverty, and provide for sickness or declining years. .Every young man of the right sort expects some day to marry, to own a home and to start in business. The first thing such a man should do is to open a savings account. There is much in making the start. Ask your rich neighbor the secret of his success. He will doubtless tell you, that it had its beginning in the habit of saving. The history of the lives of all great builders of fortunes proves the power of ac- cumulated savings. The young man who is not saving in youth, is inviting a cheerless dependent old age. Get started. It is the beginning of the campaign that is impor- tant. Start a savings account at once, and encourage it with constant deposits and you will soon have an earning asset ever ready for use in case of emer- gency or business opportunity.
