H. S. The staff had a hard time get- ting started this year but we have persevered until now our work is finished and our effort is before you. We ask you to look kindly upon it and to judge it not too severely. TO THE SPIRIT OF THE SCHOOL the class of ' 15 respectfully dedicates this volume of the MISKODEED MISKODEED 1914 MISHAWAKA HIGH SCHOOL. MISKODEED 1914 FLOYD HAMBIil6HT THFF FREDA BASH MUSIC LLEWELLYN NAUREI ' DOI(0THY MIX RESMMEM SOPHOPIQRES MISKODEED 1914 The above is a likeness of J. F. N., which in long hand is John Franklin Nuner, the Superintendent of Schools. It is to his credit that the Schools of Misha- waka are classified among the many fine things men- tioned most frequently in the column what Mishawaka has. The City takes great pride in its Schools. Their growth has been rapid but sound and healthy, and their administration during these years particularly wise and efhcient. The High School students and teachers wish to take this opportunity to express their thanks for the interest and enthusiasm which Mr. Nuner has always had in the High School, and for his wise and friendly counsel. MISKODEED 1914 FACULTY MISKODEED 1914 MR. HORTON Mr. Horton our principal can be defined by the one word enthusiasm. He comes from Indiana, and makes us wonder if they distribute life and vigor there in doses. We certainly owe him a great deal for his influence in making the school so progressive and up-to-date. MISS WELCH Miss Welch would be an honor to any school. Her years of endeavor have done much toward making M. H. S. an institution worth while. The old verse, And still the wonder grew that one small head could carry all she knew, might well be applied to her. MISS TURNER Our best beloved Leona Turner also is from Indiana. By her broad sympathy and interest in everything con- cerning the school she has won the hearts of all the stu- dents and we could not get along without her. MISS TERRY Miss Terry has attended so many musical institutions that it is impossible to decide which is the most import- ant. We appreciate greatly her work in making the music department so interesting and beneficial. The world would be better if it contained more such ardent lovers of Beethoven and Wagner. MISKODEED 1914 MR. MILLER Mr. Miller has pulled up our commercial department so much and so well, that now our commercial course can compare very favorably with that of any high school in the state. Mr. Miller demands absolute silence and attention in his classes, but he has recently been con- verted to the cause of Women Suffrage, thereby proving that there are exceptions to all rules, even his own. MISS KERN This is the first year Miss Kern has been with us but she has already proven her worth. She has a whole train of snakes, flowers, hearts, vegetables, crawfish and boys. At spreads, parties, and circuses, she has no equal. MISS SIMPSON Miss Simpson is the genius of our faculty for spreads, teas, and luncheons. The odors from her sanctum have a very disquieting effect on all the students just before noon. She comes from Michigan State Xormal and cer- tainly is an honor to that institution. MISS McCOUN Miss McCoun joined the ranks of the Faculty this year. Her genial and kind disposition has already won her many friends among the students of her department. MISKODEED 1914 MR. BROWN Mr. Brown is another new member of the faculty. He is very popular, especially among the freshmen for his knowledge of the magic arts. He is instructor in science and rules his domain with the wisdom of Socrates. MISS HOCKETT Miss Hockett is little but very, very mighty. She is the life of all school dramatics and the English department would certainly suffer if she were to leave. She has a twin brother but she will not tell us his age. MISS HOWE Miss Howe is another who is spending her first year with us but we hope it will not be the last. The verse applied to Miss Welch might well apply to Miss Howe but we shall not repeat it. She hails from Indiana and has done much toward making this year a dramatic success. MR. OWEN Graduate of Michigan State yormal and head of the In- dustrial Department. MISS KELLY Instructor in! art. From .S7Β« e Xormal at Terre Haute and Chicago Art in.stilute. 10 MISKODEED 1914 SENIORS r Jaifl - MISKODEED 1914 Senior Officers President Lewis Lang Vice-President Walter Crumley Secretary Minnie Schalliol Treasurer Kathryn Eager Colors: β€” Alice Blue and Gold. Flower: β€” White Peony. Motto:β€” NON NOBIS SOLUM NAT! SUMUS. We are not born for ourselves alone. YELL Yea-a-a-a-a-a-a-a 14! Yea-a-a-a-a-a-a-a 14! N-i-n-e-t-e-e-n- ! F-o-u-r-t-e-e-n- ! 19 14! Yea-a-a-a-a-a-aa- 14! Senior Class IT is indeed, with deep regret that we, the class of nineteen hundred and four- teen, bid farewell to our fellow classes, and the dear old M. H. S. Our last year has been filled with pleasure as well as hard work, and we leave our places as Seniors with genuine regret, β€” although we feel that the Juniors will fill our places nobly. However, our sorrow is not unmixed with pleasure when we look forward to the years for which our High School has prepared us; and we hope to succeed in such a measure that we shall do honor to the school which has trained us in our various occupations. During our Freshmen year, the new building was completed, and at the beginning of our second semester in the High School, we marched proudly to our seats in the new building, where we received detailed instructions from our prin- cipal. Miss Welch, concerning the care of the furniture. Since that time, many new teachers have joined us, and several new subjects have been added to the curriculum, β€” among them, vocational guidance, music and public speaking. And during the last four years the standard of the school has been raised inestimably. MISKODEED 1914 It has also been since our entrance into High School, that the Social Club and the two literary societies, the Philosophian and the Adelphosophian, have been organized, and the present system of conducting morning exercises has been adopted. And while, perhaps, we are not directly responsible for these innovations, still, we have doubtless had an immense influence. We have made a pretty good showing in the athletic field too. In our Junior year the class was awarded the pennant for winning an interclass contest in soccer football. The basket ball teams that we have had during the past four years, have all been exceptionally fine teams, β€” but the one this year was so successful, β€” even defeating a choice alumni team, β€” that the school sent it to the state tournament at Bloomington. Last year, one member of our class received an M, for winning the silver medal at the Northern Indiana Oratorical Contest. The class of nineteen hundred and fourteen will present Oliver Goldsmith ' s comedy, She Stoops to Conquer some time during Commencement Week. In so doing, we are preceding the other classes in giving a classical play. We are glad that the girls of the class have set the example for a pretty and inexpensive Commencement by deciding to graduate in sailor suits. We believe the occasion will be made very effective by this democracy and simplicity. And now, we wish to express our gratitude to the teachers who have worked so hard for us, to express the sincere hope that if we have not raised the standard of the school, we have at least maintained it, and as sincere a hope that we have influenced the lower classmen to higher ideals and ambitions, as we were influ- enced when we were younger by our Seniors. MISKODEED 1914 Ye Prophecy O, list to the prognostications For the wonderful class of 14, The class of all others the greatest. Whose story doth brilliantly gleam. But please do not any offense take. And fix on the author no blame. For he ' s assigned unto each, the vocation Which Fate alone linked with his name. Fair Anna is doomed for a teacher; And Floyd will a minister be; Armida, β€” conductor of parties β€” The sights of all Europe to see. Walter ' s a big politician; Gertrude ' s a leader of styles; Minnie ' s a fine music teacher, β€” Her method is well-known for miles. Stella ' s a teacher at Wellesly; Margaret is coach at Bryn Mawr; Ralph P. is a wonderful chemist, β€” His work is the talk of the hour. Estella is making great money With Elizabeth, β€” hand over fist. In a Woman ' s Exchange in Chicago, β€” They ' ve a great many suitors, β€” I wist. Kathryn ' s a grand opera singer; And Lewis an airman will be; Irving belongs to the army; And Violet is touring the sea. 14 MISKODEED 1914 Esther ' s a teacher of science; Raymond ' s a gay city sport; And Harold ' s a noted machinist, With inventions of every sort. Garfield s an excellent actor; Leona at painting is great; Ralph H. is a gallant drum major, With high step and galloping gait. Ray is a noted musician ; Marguerite ' s a suffragette; Lillie s a wealthy land owner, With a great many houses to let. Donald s a street car conductor; Iva ' s a maker of gowns; Beatrice is a director Of playgrounds in numerous towns. Clarence will be an electrician; And Deane will a milliner be; And all are surrounded with glory. As each one can readily see. The author has been very willing To each classmate a fate to assign, But when he arrives at his own name. There are no more words left that will rhyme. 15 MISKODEED 1914 SENIORS LEWIS LANG.

We were, Freshies, so they called us, Asked us what we wanted here; Seniors, Juniors, even Sophomores Soaked it to us that first year. We were timid as they all are When they first arrive, you see. But we finally had more courage When we Sophomores grew to be. Last year Juniors, and we knew then Seniors we would be ere long. Several of our class had left us, That we all considered wrong. And now we re Seniors wise and brave; We ' re daily thinking past days o ' er. Of things worth doing that were done By MH-S-1 9-1-4. 20 MISKODEED 1914 JUNIORS 21 MISKODEED 1914 Class of ' 1 5 President Elbridge Studley Vice-President Helen Lang Secretary Clara Brown Treasurer Florence Sy tz Colors: β€” Navy Blue and Gold Flower: β€” Yellow Rose Motto: β€” Esse, quam videre. To be, rather than to seem. Hamlet ' s Soliloqy (Revised) To study or not to study, that is the question Whether ' tis better not to study And take the risk of flunking. Or to take arms against a sea of troubles And learn long lessons assigned. To cram, and cram, perchance to flunk, Aye, there ' s the rub. For when we once fall below the line What chance have we of regaining lost time! No chance of Juniors and Sophomores Can win the favor of the faculty. To be a Senior β€” to graduate β€” to cram no more. And by graduating to say we end the toils and The thousand mental shocks our brains are heir to Tis a consummation devotedly to be wished. We regret very much to announce that two of our most talented Juniors failed to get their pictures in this book. Their names however are given below.

To know her. is to love Music, the idol of my dreams. her. 22 MISKODEED 1914 With Apologies to William Shakespeare Friends, Students, Classmates, lend me your ears; 1 come to praise the Juniors, not to degrade them. The evil classes do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones; Let it not be so with the Juniors. The learned Seniors Hath told you Juniors are not ambitious: If it be so, it is a grievous fault. And grievously will they answer it. Here, under leave of the Seniors and the rest. β€” For they are a learned class; So are they all, all classes, β€” Come I to speak in behalf of the Juniors. They my classmates, faithful and just to all β€” But Seniors say they are not ambitious; And they are a learned class. They have brought many honors to the school, Whose laurels did the general scholars share: Surely this in the Juniors seems ambitious. When that the others have played, the Juniors have worked: Could ambition be made of sterner stuff? Yet Seniors are a learned class. You all did see that on the Lyceum They thrice presented goodly talent. Which you did thrice enjoy: that v as ambition. But Seniors say they are not ambitious; And, sure, they are a learned class. I speak not to disprove what Seniors say, But here I am to speak what I do know. You all look up to them, not without cause: What cause with-holds you then to work for them. O School! thou art turned to heartless people. And students have lost their reason. Bear with me; My heart is in the class rooms there with Juniors And I must pause till it comes back to me. β€”Ruth tiutherland, ' 15. 23 MISKODEED 1914 ELBRIDGE STUDLEY Studley Adel.

And do just anything. So the pupils in the classrooms Of good old M. H. S., Were always sure to giggle. Why? β€” the teacher could not guess. He was just the kindest fellow, But one we had to lose. And now we shall not hear again The squeaking of his shoes. MISKODEED 1914 SOPHOMORES MISKODEED 1914 Class Officers President Harry Eager Vice-President Dorothy Mix Secretary Josephine Ahara Treasurer D.J. Graham Sergeant-at-Arms Logan Emerson Class Colors: β€” Scarlet and White Class Flower: β€” White Carnation Class Motto We really have no authentic motto but I am sure I can be justified in saying that if we had one it would be Always Original. In fact, the only time when we have not been original was when we entered the High School. We were just as green as all Freshies are. However, had we not been green it would have been exceptional, not original. Our first brilliant piece of originaltiy, (the Seniors, who were not invited called it freshness), was during our Freshman year. We gave a party to the then Sophomores. It was a pronounced success and we mentally patted ourselves on the back for weeks afterwards. The next appearance was in the Sophomore Entertainment given March 1 7th of this year. Feeling the immediate need of more funds in our treasury we 30 MISKODEED 1914 seized the opportunity of St. Patricks Day on which to give a box social. Of course it wasn t just a box social, no indeed, there ' s nothing original in that. But we had several side issues and a whole lot of fun, mostly fun. Just at present our Chief Originator is on a strike, consequently it is not known to the general public just what sort of an affair will be originated next. But we hope in the very near future that some occasion will arise in which the Class of 16 may show its patented and copyrighted originality.

They not only received the usual welcoming accorded to Freshmen, but in addition were treated to an automobile ride into the far off country which they will never forget. The ride was complimentary from the upper classmen who provided their own cars. The freshies, however were obliged to use the gum shoe method for the return. The class of 1917 did not organize until September owing to the fact that the last half of the class did not enter the High School until that month. An organization was effected on September 10, at a meeting called for that purpose when sixty-three freshmen responded. One of the most successful social events of the school year was a freshmen party given December 19. The class did not gain much reputation along athletic lines, but it made a star strike when it made the sophomores hustle to win the Inter-class soccer game by a score of 2 to 1 . The score was kept a tie until within five minutes of the close of the game and the class team had the sophomores guessing. Half of the class of 1918 arrived Feb ruary 26, seventeen in number. This number is considered very small, but one cannot judge by the number, and they may make up in quality what they lack in quantity. As the school year comes to a close this article would be incomplete without some mention of appreciation of the faculty. They have done their best and have borne with our class with patience and forbearance. Would that the class of ' 1 7 had done its whole duty as they have done theirs. 36 MISKODEED 1914 Class of ' 1 8 β– B liLS . .- v β–  m mmm. m 1 - -jβ€” OC - M 3 t[ % TOP ROW β€” James Beard.

Foster Born, March 21, 1881 Died, February 23, 1914 38 MISKODEED 1914 ALUMNI 39 MISKODEED 1914 A Commencement of Long Ago JUST thirty five years ago there was turned out from the Mishawaka High School the smallest class that has ever graduated from that institution, the class consisting of one member, the writer of this article. The Commencement Exercises were held in the old Burt Opera House, the hall being crowded to its fullest capacity. There was first a program given by the High School, followed by the graduating essay, and for twenty-five minutes that crowded audience listened patiently to what a seventeen year old girl knew about The Wide, Wide World. The subject was a big one, and the essay in- cluded everything from the astronomical location and geological formation of the Earth to the characteristics of the races who inhabit it. The knowledge con- tained therein must all have been gained from books as the author ' s travels at that time had been somewhat limited, extending probably from Osceola on the east to South Bend on the west. The lack of experience, however, was a matter of minor importance. The exercises closed with the awarding of the diploma, which was signed by Elliot Whipple, Superintendent, and Allyn B. Lamport, J. W. Manwaring and A. J. Pettit, members of the school board. This was of course the crowning reward of the years of hard work, won then, as now, after many trials and tribulations; but with a distance of three thousand miles and a period of thirty-five years in- tervening there is left only the sweet memories of many dear friends among tea- chers and school mates, many of whom are scattered over The Wide, Wide World. Jennie Byrkit Uhler. 18 7 8 During school days what life long comradeships are formed, and influences brought to bear, the strength of which cannot then be fully realized. How truly Whittier wrote God gives the wishes of our youth, but in his own best way. The first commencement of our High School, held in Whitson Hall, was such a departure from the ordinary tide of events that it attracted the attention of many admiring friends and was made much of. Many changes have come with the passing years, yet it is a satisfaction al- ways to recall old time friendships and school experiences, and they continue to be the source of most pleasant memories. Mary A. Studebaker. 40 MISKODEED 1914 18 8 7 There were no Domestic Science classes in 1887, as now, but our girls took naturally to the art, as attested by exhibits at some of our class meetings. There were no Manual Training classes, but our boys sawed more wood, I believe, than the chaps of 14 ' do. It is over a quarter of a century now; death has dealt fairly lightly with our group, but we are somewhat scattered. However, can doubtless be counted upon for support in anything that means general up- lift in the community in which he lives β€” this is characteristic of High School graduates, and that is why we all like to see so many of them coming on, and wish for more.

The Devotional Excerises generally led by Miss Welsh, at the opening of the day ' s work, add pleasant memories, and we regret very much that our children are not accorded the same uplifting influences. Wilson Borst. 19 6 We believe that we can claim for 1906 class that they were a class of fairly industrious students. Therefore, we all grew while in M. H. S. We have pleas- ant memories of Miss Abbey ' s Chemistry and Physics classes, of Miss Simpson ' s Caesar Class, and last but not least pleasant of Miss Welch ' s Civics class. When we were in Mishawaka High School we considered the rainy days to be fairly frequent, but all old times are good times and we trust that now with all of us recollections of M. H. S. are pleasant recollections. Jerry H.

On September twenty-sixth the girls, having lost the Athletic Association membership contest, entertained the boys at a party in the High School Audi- torium. Those, who did not dance, were entertained by some of the boys, who sang all the songs which the pianist played. The chief event of the evening came at ten o ' clock, at which time refreshments were served. 11. A very successful entertainment was given October tenth by the members of the Junior Class. Miss Ruby Turner, a splendid reader rendered Zangwill ' s ' ' Melting Pot. This entertainment was largely attended, and a neat sum was made by the Juniors. 111. On December 17, Social Club gave its annual Christmas Party. At the request of the committee in charge, Santa Claus appeared and distributed gifts. Only one mistake was made, and that was in the case of Mr. Brown, who for months, had asked Santa for an automobile, and who was disappointed in receiving only a miniature Ford. IV. The Freshmen party December 19, was certainly a fine entertainment β€” for Freshmen to give! It was held in the auditorium which was tastefully decorated in the class colors, purple and gold. Those who did not dance, played the new game of Ping Pong. At last, we were called down stairs, to the eats, ' which consisted of purple ice-cream and wafers. Some of the upper classmen were suspicious of the ice-cream, thinking it was a plot against their lives; therefore they did not eat their accustomed amount β€” much to the delight of the Freshmen! V. The Class of ' 1 5 M. H. S. gave a supper in honor of Washington ' s birth- day. The crowd exceeded all their expectations, and they had to turn many away. The next morning a small crowd of enthusiastic Juniors came to clean up. What they saw was: Dishes, dishes, everywhere, piled on the kitchen tables, Dishes, dishes, everywhere, and pots and pans and ladles. 44 MISKODEED 1914 VI.

Ondego Jhones Harold Easterday Sierra Bengaline Donald McCollum Lady Genevieve Llandpoore Lester Lott Because of its great success it was repeated March 7. VII. On March 17, the Sophomores showed their originality, in giving a Box Social, which was well attended. For the entertainment of the spectators, a series of tableaus was given, accompanied by a group of singers, who for a time made the air blue with their melody. Dancing and refreshments were enjoyed. We wonder if some of the boys really appreciated their repast, or whether they were lamenting over the loss of money, which they paid for the boxes. VIII. On March 24, under the auspices of the Junior Class, Mr. Harlan gave a very interesting entertainment, to the few people who came to hear him. The school did not give the Juniors their support in this undertaking and the school spirit which is usually shown at all High School entertainments was noticeably lacking. As a result of this the Junior Class lost O, well, why repeat it!! Big M Circus The Big M Circus arrived in Mishawaka May 1, 1914. The big parade which was scheduled for twelve o ' clock, of course, was one-half hour late. There were clowns, suffragettes, bears, well everything that goes to make up a first class circus; and even a calliope. That night the halls of M. H. S. were crowded. Everyone was calling for more pink lemonade and peanuts. The police court did a rushing business as well as the side shows. M. H. S. is much indebted to Miss Kern, who made this circus a roaring success. 45 LOOKING EAST IN MANUAL TRAINING ROOM LOOKING WEST IN MANUAL TRAINING ROOM MISKODEED 1914 Sparks from the Commercial Department Wires The commercial world is starving for high-class material. β€” Marshall Field.

It gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, gaiety and life to everything. It is the essence of ardor, and leads to all that is good, just and beautfiul. β€” Plato. The department of music is a new thing in M. H. S. this being its first year. The course consists of musical history, elementary harmony, music appreciation, and chorus work. A forty minute period each day is devoted to it and it is accred- ited the same as other studies. The chorus meets once a week on Fridays. It has about fifty members and has done some splendid work. Our work in musical history has been a study of the advancement of the art of music from pre-historic man to the present day; and the study of the great, and near great composers. Their lives, works, what they have done for the art of music, and their position in the musical world. Through the work in musical appreciation we have learned to enjoy and to better understand the great masters and their music. The Victrola is used in this part of the work. Altogether the music department is one of the most interesting and success- ful of the courses and bids fair to the achievement of great things. MISKODEED 1914 MISKODEED 1914 LITERARY CZ The Tale of a Donkey THE day was fair, and though the same adjective would hardly apply to Mrs. McCune, yet she was well satisfied with herself, for her cart was full of the finest apples, which she had carefully saved till the present rise in November prices. She meant to sell them in a nearby town, feeling sure they would go like hot cakes, as soon as the slow pace of Tim, her donkey, would carry them so far. The thoughts of Tim were long, long thoughts, nearly as long as his ears. He was so absorbed in them that the tooting of an auto ' s fore wheels struck the apple cart, knocking the whole outfit aside like a feather, and spilling the apples on the roadway. Mr. Beverly Dunn, who had been scorching most illegally, would never have paused to investigate, had not one rosy-cheeked apple spun into the auto ' s gear, bringing the machine to a sudden halt. Mrs. McCune bombarded the auto-owner with shrill complaints. Oh and its ruined, I am! Ain ' t ye goin ' to pay me for thim apples an ' for the damage ye done me cart an ' fambly? Family, madam, family! You ' ve no family here, retorted Mr. Dunn. Sure, faith, an ' Tims all the fambly I got, and judgn ' by app ' arances he ' s a more paceful baste thin yerself, sir. How you ' ve hurt his idies in commotion most scandalous, and he ' ll be bewilderance not to say sulky, fer a whole week. MISKODEED 1914 Many folks ' feelin ' s is very delicate. What ' s that? Foive dollars fer thim apples! Thafe o ' the worruld! Meantime the chauffer had been fixing the auto. Get in, shouted his master to him, ignoring the widow, We ' ll catch em yet! They mus t have gone to Davis Station. The auto crossed the bridge and disappeared in the distance. Thafe o ' the worruld! muttered Mrs. McCune. Only foive dollars an ' him a rowlin ' in money. Bad cess to him! Tim don ' t be shy with me. Twas partly your fault after all. What happened immediately after was certainly Tim ' s fault. Hearing an- other auto coming, he plunged foreward finishing his wild career in the ditch, the cart sticking fast in the mud. His mistress hurled forcible adjectives at the couple in the runabout. But the auto had stopped and the young lady was saying: We didn ' t mean to hurt you. Here ' s twenty-five dollars; won ' t that help? And Reggie is helping your donkey out of the ditch. Tis a foine lady yez are, said Mrs. McCune, not like that fat auld spal- peen in the Rid Divil what knocked us over before. Red Devil β€” fat old spalpeen! Oh! could she mean papa, Reggie? Was he about fifty, bald headed, black clothes, light overcoat, small green eyes, machine driven by a Frenchman? asked the breathless Reggie, who had just come up after getting the donkey on his feet again. But how could you see him when he went by? He stopped to fix somethin, said she. That ' s your man. ' Tis running ' away I belave yez are, for he said, We ' ll ketch em yet! They ' ve gone to Davis Station. The girl ' s head drooped. Yes we ' re running away to get married, she said, He ' s headed us off. Oh! What can we do? Back! said the old woman briskly, back till ye can be a takin ' the first right hand road. Ye can turn there. It ' ll kerry ye to Mayville, tin miles away. Look! There ' s his car on the hilltop. He ' s coming back! Oh! Let ' s hurry Reggie, cried the girl in terror. They sprang in, the young man leaned foreward, grasped the lever, and they disappeared up the road. Come, Tim, come along on to the bridge, so I can gather up what ' s left of me Baldwins. Come on wid ye! Come on. repeated Mrs. McCune to the donkey. Tim moved foreward sulkily. He did not trust the bridge, for it was under repair, only one narrow side of it, just wide enough for a wagon, being available. But finally finding it safe, Tim walked to the center, and waited there for Mrs. McCune to pick up a few usable apples. Meanwhile the red auto had reached the bridge. It was the same chauffeur who had collided with the meditative Tim. The chauffer under a well assumed sullen indifference, recognized the outfit. 52 MISKODEED 1914 Here ' s that infernal donkey again, muttered Mr. Dunn, as his machine, its wheels barely on the bridge, was forced to stop. Here woman, he cried indignantly, take that animal off from there at once β€” back him off from there, and be quick about it, too! Understand? Mrs. McCune put down her basket, pushed back her bonnet, and placing her arms akimbo regarded Mr. Dunn with a twinkle in her eye. Who wadn ' t be plazed to sa ' sich a swate spoken gintelman as yerself? said she. But whin ye knocked Tim winded awhile back, ye spiled one of his hind legs. He used to be able to go backward, which makes it turrible akward fer me. Then we will have to back off so you can drive him across. But, say, have you seen a runabout with two young people in it? Which way did they go? ' Sure, thing, an ' it ' s me that knows their distination, an ' it ' s me as must have twenty dollars as fer sich information as I ' ll be a ' givin ' ye. Twenty dollars! You ' re a black mailer! snapped Mr. Dunn, but there, take it; now where have they gone? Sure, to Mayville β€” an ' to be ketchin ' ' em you must be hurryen. Then get your donkey off the bridge, yelled Mr. Dunn. The widow gave away to an apparently genuine burst of grief. It ' s bruk somethin ' inside o ' him yez have! she shouted. Now he ' ll niver be able to go at all. An ' the langwidge the innocent ears of him is hearin ' . Will I drive him? I will not. He can ' t move, he ' s that flustered. Nevais can I impress him, cried Pierre, the chauffeur. Thoroughly disgusted and exasperated, he got in and backed the auto on the bridge. But before Tim could be attached to the car and pulled off, as Pierre in- tended to do, he hastily backed off. Then they turned the car around again, while Tim stood meekly watching the car pass him. Free at last, master and man shot up the road at a frantic speed, arriving just in time to see the train and run-aways disappearing from Mayville. As for Tim, he went peacefully homeward, carrying his mistress, and his thoughts were long, long thoughts nearly as long as his ears.

What he looked at when he went walking on a moonlight night? ' Bob ' said promptly, ' Why the girl beside me of course. ' After giggling over that for about five minutes, they at last settled down to work, and, after a long unbroken silence for two minutes, Lyndell inquired, Have you your theme for tomorrow? No, and I can ' t think of anything to write about. Have you seen ' Puggy ' s? Yes, isn ' t it a peach, I like the way she tells about Eagers star playing. My, (long sigh) I wish we had won that South Bend game! Cheer up, chirped Clara, We may beat them next year. Accidents do happen, you know. The clock in the next room suddenly struck nine. Lyndell jumped up and hastily gathered up her books. Well I ' ve got to go, and I ' ve had a perfectly splendid time. I just love to stud with you. Let me see, said Clara thoughtfully, From seven o ' clock until nine, is two hours. My! I hope Miss Welch asks us how long we studied our ' Caesar, ' don ' t you? Florence Sytz, 15. 54 MISKODEED 1914 Elevators Versus Time AS it was, I would certainly be five minutes late. The big clock in the Lex- ington Tea room had chimed two fifteen minutes ago, and I had agreed to meet Mr. Wilcox on the ground floor at precisely ten minutes past two. We had thought that twenty minutes would be time enough, in which to reach the theatre for the matinee. But I had met so many acquaintances in the morn- ing while shopping, and they had all seemed so inclined to stop and talk awhile, that I had been late in reaching the tea rooms. Then the waitresses had tried my patience nearly to the breaking point, by taking all the possible time in fill- ing my order. When the tray finally arrived, I had fairly to hold myself in check, so that, in my haste, I might not really seem to shovel that luncheon down. I didn t wait for dessert. As I hastened out of the room, drawing on my gloves as I went, I almost bumped into an old college friend. It would never do to hurry on; 1 must stop and talk, β€” but why do so many friends appear, when one is in such a hurry! How- ever, after greeting her effusively, explaining my predicament, and arranging to meet her on the following afternoon, I hurried on. As I approached the elevator, I fairly rushed for the bell, and gave it such a push, that the halls and corridors loudly echoed. In my haste, I failed to notice a small sign informing the public that the elevators were out of working order. I pushed the button again, β€” not quite so vigorously as before, β€” and then, β€” just as I finished reading the notice, the door of an office opened, and a young man stepped out, looked inquiringly through his glasses, first at me and then at the notice, and informed me that the elevator wasn ' t running today, and that I should use the emergency elevator on the other side of the building. Well, β€” I never felt so foolish and chagrined in all my life, β€” and I felt so indignant toward him, and so angry at myself, that I almost neglected to thank him. As I rushed to the other side of the building, my anger had a chance to cool, and I thought of poor Mr. Wilcox waiting impatiently on the main floor. If he had been an old friend, it might have been different, but since our acquaintance was somewhat limited, the delay was almost unpardonable. When I had reached the emergency elevator, which runs automatically, β€” I took time to read the instructions carefully. I then cautiously pushed the button, and immediately, a small elevator shot up to the floor. I stepped in, fearfully pushed the button and began to descend rapidly. I had almost reached the main floor, when all of a sudden, the elevator began to go up, β€” I was so astonished that I couldn ' t move at first. Then I began to wonder if I had touched something, 55 MISKODEED 1914 and I began to look around. I was still looking, frantically, when the elevator stopped at the sixth floor. A very tall, very thin, very cross-looking old lady appeared in the doorway. She looked me over very deliberately, glanced up and down the halls and corridors, readjusted her glasses, and inquired if I were the elevator boy! I informed her that I was not, β€” but, assuming more confidence than I really felt, I assured her that I could operate this one, β€” anything to make her hustle a little bit. She stepped gingerly into the cage, which was scarcely big enough for two, and we descended rapidly. As we passed the fifth floor, 1 noticed an exceedingly fleshy man approaching. My apprehensions were aroused immediately. I felt almost like confiding my fears to that tall, cold, precise, piece of humanity who was in that little space with me, β€” but I didn ' t quite dare. Besides that man might not have been approaching the elevator, β€” and if he had, β€” we might reach the first floor before he reached the elevator. β€” However, my worst fears were soon realized, β€” for when we had almost reached the first floor, and 1 had squeezed out from behind the tall woman, β€” we suddenly went up again. Goodness, I can feel her icy long fingers on my neck yet, for this calm, indifferent ice-berg had grasped the back of my neck, β€” frantically seeking an explanation from me. Never mind, madam, 1 calmly assured her, The gentleman on the fifth floor has merely pushed the button. The heavy set man, β€” you might almost call him corpulent, β€” gazed timorously into the interior of the cage, β€” inspected us carefully, measured the space, and with a wistful glance backward finally decided to try it. I almost expected the elevator to drop like a rock the instant he set foot inside it. It didn ' t β€” but we were squeezed in rather uncomfortably tight. This time, we really reached the bottom, but it took the fat man and the tall lady such a longtime to get out that I had fears of a shooting up to the top of the building again. Just as I stepped out, Mr. Wilcox hurried in from outside, and began to make profuse apologies for being late, β€” I excused him readily, β€” for I could appreciate how he felt, β€” and to reassure him completely, I related how my funny experiences had made me late too. We were ushered to our seats in the theatre just as the curtain arose on the first act.

Ralph Hutchinson ' ! 4 57 MISKODEED 1914 A Sudden Calamity I WAS in the best of spirits when I entered the Domestic Science room, one bright afternoon. Miss Simpson greeted us with a glad, How-do-you-do girls. We all started to work with an air of importance I never in the least supposed at any moment the world might all go wrong. Miss Simpson was on the other side of the room directing one of the girls. Knowing my lesson was soon to follow, I went to the cupboard for a cup. How it happened I never can tell, but the cup left my hand, and making a rapid decent through space, it lay in a dozen frag- ments on the floor. My temperature fell to ten degrees below zero. Each of the dozen pieces seemed to be marked, Ten per cent off. They all began to dance and whirl, then shriek out, Ten per cent off for careless girls. Miss Simpson had just discovered that Myrna Holmes had an extra good do on her soup, and fortunately for me the attention of teacher and all the class was turned in that direction. With cold fingers I picked up that dozen, Ten per cent offs. I had often seen my mother dispose of broken dishes, and how I longed for those good old days. I would have given worlds to have been taught to cook in my mother ' s kitchen, instead of taking a Domestic Science course in the public school. But what to do with that shattered cup, was certainly a problem. Myrna ' s soup wouldn ' t need the attention of the class and the teacher much longer. I was in danger of being discovered at any moment. I hurriedly put the pieces in my pocket. Five minutes later when I removed my handkerchief from my pocket, a tiny, Ten per cent off, came out and rattled upon the floor. I have never heard such a loud noise from such a small cause. Luckily for me no one seemed to have heard it. What was I to doi I could not leave them in my pocket. I looked speculatively at the waste basket, but instantly remembered however, that Miss Simpson per- iodically examines its contents, to see if any of her missing china is there. The end of the class period came centuries after it was supposed to. I started for the assembly for the five minute intermission. On the way I met Lewis Lang and D. J. Graham heatedly discussing the plan of the removal of the school Library from the Assembly room. Unobserved I slipped the pieces into D. J s. pocket. By the time the class met again I had almost persuaded myself I was through with that awful cup. Just as school was dismissed, D. J. went to the desk to speak to Miss Hockett, at the same time pulling out his gloves. Then Oh! β€” ?, that terrible cup came showering down. Miss Hockett ' s face was a question, but D. J ' s. face was not the answer. I have heard D. J. is vowing revenge on every student in Domestic Science. I don ' t want to lose ten per cent, and I don ' t want to tell a falsehood. So I just keep still. I can ' t sleep nights, and I have no appetite. I don ' t know how it is going to end. Gladys Shirkey, ' 1 7. MISKODEED 1914 Lead eaders IT seems that in the years gone by, not enough has been said about the valiant captains who lead the various teams through many victories. The Mishawaka captain is a man who not only excells in his branch of Athletics, but is a leader in other activities in school life. Ray Russ the Basket Ball captain was a hard worker for the school and his team, and the same can be said of Fred Seifert and Dempster Beatty in Baseball and Track respectively. As these captains give up their duties to their successors, we feel sure that their best wishes are still with the school. Lovell, our yell leader, used his ability to round up enthusiasm, which aided the teams in all games. And it is largely due to his efforts that Misha- waka has earned the reputation, among Northern Indiana High Schools, of supporting the athletics better than any school in this part of the State. 60 mKET lALL 61 MISKODEED 1914 Our Basket Ball Team ' 13- ' 14 ON the first of November the basket ball call was issued by Coaches Horton and Hindelang. A crowd of forty was present at the first practice and us- ing Eager, Giel and Capt. Russ as a nucleus, a fast team was developed. Capt. Russ, as guard, distinguished himself in every game by his fighting and dodging qualities. In playing back guard Rusty had little chance to shine on the offense, but took his measure of credit for breaking up plays. Eager was the real sensation of the year; though only a sophomore he starred more on the offense than anyone on the team. Playing center he was never out- played or outjumped. Giel may well be called the brains of the team. He was always over the floor passing the ball to his mates, never taking a chance at the basket when some other player was closer. Rustic ' s side partner is Bussert, a big fellow but not a bit slow on this account. The rougher the game, well, the better Buzz liked it, which all goes to show that he is some fighter. 62 MISKODEED 1914 The man who works with Giel is Tramer. A fast man and dead shot, Baldy seldom failed to make his guard look foolish. Seifert, though small, was fast and an accurate shot. Playing always against larger men he got away with a lot of passing and baskets. Si made a good sub- stitute and next year ought to be a first class forward. Studley was a fast player of Eager ' s type but lacked experience. His tallness and fighting qualtities, however, made him a valuable susbtitute. Kohler completed the squad. Shorty and Bussert put up a pretty fight for right guard, and it was not until the last few weeks that the best of the two was brought out. ' It would not be right to close and say nothing about the second team which worked so valiantly to make the first team what it was. Perhaps Captain Bran- strater was the hardest worker, and never was there a practice when he did not have his best ready to do their duty for the school. M. H. S. 21; PLYMOUTH 16 Dec. 5. Mishawaka started the season with a victory. The fast Plymouth five was sent home consoling themselves with the small end of a 21 to 16 score. The game was fast through out; the close guarding on both sides proved the feature of the tilt. For a few minutes things did not look very promising for the locals but finally Eager caged the first goal of the year a difficult one from the corner. Eager carried away honors with Tramer running him a close secon d. M. H. S. 26: SOUTH BEND 33 Dec. 20. The M. H. S. team journeyed to South Bend and were defeated in a matinee game 33 to 26. It was a hard fight and no body ' s game until the final minutes of play when through the efforts of Allen, the S. B. captain, the Benders took the lead holding it to the end. M. H. S. 34; MICHIGAN CITY 4 Jan. 9. The old Maroon and White aggregation of basket shooters decisively defeated the M. C. five 34 to 4. Eager started for M. H. S. with 13 baskets to his credit. M. H. S. 17; PLYMOUTH 18 Jan. 16. Plymouth managed to secure a victory over Mishawaka 1 8 to 17. The slippery floor proved too much of a handicap to overcome despite the efforts of the whole team. M. H. S. 23; ROCHESTER 19 Jan. 23. Rochester was defeated in a rough game 23 to 19. The locals put up a loose ex- hibition of basket ball, Eager being the high scorer of the evening. M. H. S. 34; NAPPANEE 28 Jan. 30. Mishawaka invaded the Nappanee camp and returned victors by the tune of 34 to 28. The down staters led at the end of the first half but could not hold the M. H. S. forwards the second. Eager led the offense with 5 baskets, Giel and Seifert were right behind the big boy with 4 ringers apiece. MISKODEED 1914 M. H. S. 26; LAPORTE 23 Feb. 6. LaPorte threw a scare into the locals by holding Mishawaka to a 26 to 23 score. The visitors seemed to be full of horse shoes, being able to cage the ball any way they threw it in the general direction of the basket. M. H. S. 47; ELKHART 11 Feb. 1 3. This game proved to the rooters that Elkhart should no longer be termed dangerous. The old rivals came down with the intentions of handling the locals a drubbing. They were sent home a wiser but sadder bunch, having to be contented with the wee end of a 47 to I 1 score. Tramer played a star game making a goal from the field. M. H. S. 71; MICHIGAN CITY 17 Feb. 21. The team was in fine form at M. C, defeating the shore boys in a comparatively easy game. It was uninteresting throughout, the game ending with a score of 71 to 17. Eager and Giel were in rare form with 22 and 28 points to their credit respectively. M. H. S. 55; GOSHEN 15 Feb. 27. Goshen proved to be fruit for M. H. S., the score being 55 to 15. At no time was Mishawaka pushed to land the game. M. H. S. 19; SOUTH BEND 26 Mar. 4. In a very exciting game South Bend defeated the local quintet on their own floor 26 to 19. M. H. S. put up a splendid game and their teamwork far surpassed that shown by South Bend, but the old luck was again evident; the ball would not go through the basket. This game decided the Northern Indiana Championship, but did not keep the team from going to the State Tournament as the general feeling was that Mishawaka was not outplayed. M. H. S. 49; GOSHEN 18 Mar. 6. Goshen was defeated 49 to 18. It was M. H. S. ' s second game in three days, the out- come showing the locals to be in fine form for the Tournament the following week. M. H. S. 21; LAPORTE 27 Mar. 18. On the Wednesday following the State Tournament Mishawaka journeyed to LaPorte and was defeated 21 to 27. As the Coach expressed it, they could not play a good game of marbles. M. H. S. 27; ELKHART 22 Mar. 20. Mishawaka traveled to Elkhart for the last game of the season. The M. H. S. basket tossers did not have the pep that characterized their playing early in the year which made the game a see-saw affair until the last five minutes, when Mishawaka took a spurt securing a good lead. The whole team played an excellent game, but the work of Eager and Tramer stood out more prominently than that of the others. The Elkhart crowd showed that they do not be- lieve in good sportsmanship. Outside of that it was a fitting climax for a very successful season. The Bloomington Tournament The M. H. S. Team entered the State Tournament held at Bloomington under the auspices of Indiana University. The team played good ball through the tourney but were put out by New Albany after defeating Swayzee and Albion. MISKODEED 1914 M. H. S. 36: SWAYZEE 13 Mar. ]3. At eight o ' clock in the morning Swayzee was defeated 36 to 1 5. Giel and Tramer played good ball, Eager being taken out at the end of the first half to be saved for harder games to come. M. H. S. 29; ALBION 23 Mar. 13. At eight o ' clock the same night Albion was defeated in a slow game 29 to 23. Tramer again played the stellar role and caused a native to say as how he was pretty handy with his left hook. M. H. S. 5; NEW ALBANY 13 Mar. 14. New Albany endeavored to show Mishawaka how football is so near like basket- ball and succeeded to the extent of ruining Tramer so that he had to be removed from the floor unconscious, and, making the rest of the team know without a doubt that they had been in a game of basket ball. It can be said here that Mishawaka learned a good bit of the great indoor game which could never have been taught them by a coach. STATISTICS OF TEAM MEMBERS Name Games Played Field Eager 16 !

At this meeting Fred Seifert was elected captain and Chas. Tramer manager. Seifert is a fast clever player with considerable experience as is the case with Tramer and Giel. These men formed the neuclus from which the fast aggrega- tion of ball tossers was developed. Giel did most of the pitching with Berberich on the receiving end. McKnight, Captain Seifert, and Tramer composed the star infield with Mcintosh, Lensinmier, and Easterday taking care of the outfiel j in a manner which placed them far above the average. Following are the summaries of the first two games: β€” Mishawaka 8 10 10 3 13 13 2 Elkhart 4 1 1 2 8 9 4 Batteries β€” Giel and Berberich; McCoy and Kjrtz.

The school was very active last year, and with practically the same men back this year we would not be surprised if M. H. S. carried away many honors. Beatty a good short distance man, was elected captain, and together with Coach Horton, should develop a fine aggregation. The line up for this year is as follows: Dempster Beatty, D. J. Graham 100 yd. and 220 yd. Edwin Sawyer 440 yd. Leanord Jaqua, Rockford Robbins half-mile Logan Emerson, L. S. Mauer mile run Elbridge Studley 120 and 220 hurdles and discus Chester Bussert, Harry Pelton discus and shot-put 68 MISKODEED 1914 Editorial THE prospect for the successful publication of an annual this year was indeed not a bright one. The heavy financial loss, sustained by the class which last undertook the responsibility of such a task, was a seemingly insurmountable barrier. It required the daunt- less spirit of the class of nineteen fifteen to see the way through this difficulty. In editing the annual this year, we of the staff have endeavored to put forth in this book things of interest both to those in school and to outsiders. We feel that our efforts have not been in vain considering the fact that we were entirely inexperienced. In gaining our experience we have learned this, that a staff, which works together will produce a successful book. Cer- tainly considering its size, one could not wish for a more congenial staff. Suggestions and ideas for everything were forthcoming and no one ever shirked a duty. We have been able to produce a good book and sell it for a reasonable amount owing to the kindness of our city business men. We hope this kindness will not be forgotten. 69 MISKODEED 1914 BIG M CIRCUS MISKODEED 1914 e-Argv- Sept 8 16 u 17 26 Oct. 4 U 10 a 15 u 24 a 30 Nov. 3 u 5 ifc 24 26- 27- Calendar 1913-1914 School opens with usual good spirit.

Horrified, she uttered a little squeal β€” then regaining her composure said, I ' m coming, Now, don ' t you ever tell, Harold. No Estella, Harold did not tell.
