Nuner has given his services to the schools of Misha- waka as Superintendent for thirteen years. The length of his term, the full confidence of the public, the hearty co-operation of the teachers, and the marked progress of the schools during that time bespeak the quality of the administration. Enjoying the success that he so richly merits for his work in the Misha- waka Schools, our parting word is the wish that in South Bend he may find a larger field for a similar service. The High School joins in congratulating Mr. Nuner on his deserved pro- motion, at the same time realizing that in his promotion, it is losing one of its best friends. rrflctiLTy :zv3z m s X) SZBX3 MR. HORTON Indiana University. A. B. ; A. M. ; Graduate work in Chicago University. Our principal, Mr. Horton, has done a great deal to advance our school, during the four years he has been here. He has added life to everything, from arriving on time to athletics. He is liked by all, from the Freshmen, who are in awe of him, to the Seniors, who tell him their troubles. His favorite book is Robert ' s Rules of Order. MISS HOCKETT Earlham; Graduate work in Columbia University and Chicago University. Miss Hockett, as a member of our English department, has fostered our dra- matics until they would be an honor to any school. She has a forceful way of making her pupils comply with her wishes, — for instance when they come to class without their books. We tremble in thinking what the result would be, if she had size as well as might. She still says, I wish I were as tall as you are. MISS KERN University of Michigan. Besides being our Science teacher, Miss Kern is one of our biggest boosters, and has the honor of being the originator of the Big M Circus, the best thing ever. She is liked by every one in M. H. S., and what M. H. S. would do without her is hard to say. MR. LEGG Indiana University. A. B. ; A. M. Full of vim is what expresses best the opinion of the school toward our new History teacher. Mr. Legg is a graduate of Indiana University, the school of which he boasts daily. He has done much, in the one year, to better conditions, not only in M. H. S. but also in the whole city — why! for instance that social survey. Probably some of his success is due to some one else, whose name we do not think it necessary to mention. MR. MILLER Indiana University. Valparaiso, B. S. International Business College, South Bend. Graduate work in Gregg Shorthand School and University of Wisconsin. Mr. Miller is our Commercial teacher, and deserves much credit for making that department what it is. He rules his domain as well as the whole school when acting as principal, with the wisdom of Socrates. MISS EDDINGFIELD Indiana University; Resident Fellow in Teutonic Philology, Brvn Mawr; Elected European Fellow Bryn Mawr. Miss Eddingfield is with us, this year for the first time. She teaches German and Latin. Through her efforts, Der Deutsche Verein was organized. All her classes are made interesting by her many stories of her experiences abroad. ZZV51 IE S ZD ZE, Z ID MISS HOWE Indiana University. A. B. Miss Howe is so interested in her English work herself, that her pupils can not help but catch her enthusiasm. This is especially true in journalism, which she introduced this year. However she is as ready for vacations and assemblies as anv of her pupils. MISS SIMPSON Ypsilanti; Columbia University; Chicago University. When we have par- ties, spreads and the such, we are always sure to have something good to eat. Miss Simpson, the Domestic Science teacher, shows her loyalty to the school, by always being ready to help the students in their undertakings. MISS LOCKHART Minneapolis School Fine Arts; Kalamazoo Normal. Miss Lockhart, our Art teacher, is appreciated by the whole school, because of her willingness to make posters for all school events. Many of the Miskodeed drawings are to her credit. Miss Lockhart is known as the Never failing one, to be at all social functions. MR. SEMLER Earlham. A. B. Mr. Semler was brought here for a Mathematics teacher, but his real business seems to be the big boosting of Athletics. If M. H. S. ever lacked school spirit, Mr. Semler certainly brought it with him this year, when he came. He is interested in every phase of school activity, and if anything is doubtful, one of Semler ' s boosts sends it sky high. MR. DAVIS Indiana University. A. B. Mr. Davis has charge of the Science department, and his classes are enjoyed because of the many places of interest to which he takes them. He is our track coach, and very enthusiastically encourages all athletics. MISS TERRY Graduate of Institute of Normal Methods of Applied Music. Miss Terry is in charge of the music of the High School. She has done much to build up the music department, and her work is greatly appreciated. It was never known M. H. S. had such good singers, until Miss Terry had them under her direction. IZVXI IE ZD JBX) MR. PINNEY Mr. Pinney is the man to whom we all go wher done. The printing department was installed, after IV we highly appreciated his work for that department. ive want some printing Pinney came here, and MISS HINDELANG Ypsilanti. Miss Hindelang, who has been teaching in our Commercial department since January, is an alumnus of M. H- S. She is liked very much by all her students, even if they must play on the typewriter, for hours at a time. MISS PARRY Ypsilanti. Another of the big boosters added to o physical director. She is very energetic and has the ho Basket Ball Team, which is an honor to our school. list r of Parrv, the the Girls ' MISS GERNHART Graduate of Illinois Women ' s College; Chicago University. We learn, carefully how to baste, sew and rip under the direction of Miss Gernhart. Even tho ugh the girls do make many mistakes in sewing, she is very patient and has always a smile to give you, even in such trying moments. MISS MARTLING Graduate of M. H. S., ' 15. It seems strange to call Lyndell such a dignified name, for she is called Lindy by most of the Liberry students, due to her having graduated from M. H. S. in ' 15. Besides being noted for her good naturedness, she keeps perfect order in the Library. j2V£i m s D X) AX APPRECIATION On June 8, 1915, the Mishawaka High School suffered an irreparable loss in the death of Miss Mary D. Welch, our former principal — a conscientious servant, a considerate co- worker, a generous administrator, a patient sufferer. Her fine scholarship, her dignity, her spirituality, and her sense of justice and fairness inspired all with whom she came in contact. Fellow teachers, the student body and the hundreds of former students yet mourn her loss. Her twenty-two years of service as principal and teacher can never be repaid nor forgotten by this community.

Treasurer - Class Colors - Class Flower Class Motto - FOUR years have passed; the class of 1916 is beginning to climb to the last step of Seniors in M. H. S., and as we realize the nearness of our last step, Commence- ment, may we feel that we have done justice to the school which has given us the wonderful advantages, which have helped to make us the class we are. As Freshmen, we did not decide on a motto, but we felt that it should be Originality ; as Sophomores, we were still undecided but could not think of giving it up for we saw that it applied to us more than ever ; then when our eventful Junior year came to a close, we all felt sure that we really deserved it. Our class has been a class of quality of quantity, brought about through our quality from the beginning, and we feel honored to have had such an increase in our Senior year of members of the Class of ' 17, which has helped to make us the largest class ever graduated from the M. H. S. Our part, in every place of High School life, has been well played. We have been represented in athletics from the beginning when one of the first team men in basket- Hardy Stebbins Dorothy Mix Lillie Fuller - George Eberhart Scarlet and White Richmond Rose Originality ball belonged to the Freshmen class of 1916. Xot only in Basket Ball but in Track and Soccer, have our men helped to win the big games, our class being awarded the pennant for the latter in our Junior year. Probably one of our major points has been a leader- ship in nearly all social functions, our class having devoted much of its time every year to making this part of the school a booming success. We are proud to think that members of our class were the originators of donating Civics books to the School Library, and we hope the following classes will do as much to help the growth of that department. Our annual, published in our Junior year was a grand success; may the future classes have as good luck in clear- ing debts as we did. And now as we leave our school, may we all realize the advantages we have had; namely, the path made by pre- vious classes, and the helpful guidance of the faculty. May we feel that we too, have done something for the better- ment of the school in entering the Alumni of M. H. S. to which we all hope we are now welcome. E.

As a Domestic Science expert, Hilda is fine, Doris is a Red Cross nurse near the Rhine ; Settlement work is Zena ' s line. And a reporter on the Enterprise is Leon Stine. Slowly the pages unfold themselves And I see on the not yet dusty shelves Many figures small as elves, All of the class of the four-and twelves. James Sweitzer, of course, is making cheese, And quack Dr. Schultz from policemen flees : While Hardy Sebbins never sees Why Ivy should cling to walls and trees. Josephine first does catch my eye The demonstrator of a blondine dye. Margaret is busy as she heaves a sigh, Oh, George, what is your favorite pie? ' Logan Emerson, on ten cents, still hopes To make a trip from coast to coast; An Anplex saleswoman is Alvah Close, Of married life Ruth ' s had a dose. Dema truly an Amazon, Is now the strong woman champion. Emmie is a Deutch comedian, And Grace on the trapeze the best under the sun. Milo with voice as loud and clear, Is doing well as an auctioneer. Playground instructor is Mary Eager And Lillie Fuller is a school teacher. IZVXL JZ S HD X) Senior Prophecy (Continued) Mr. Vernon Castle is Fred While Dorothy is his mistress, it ' s said; And Grace, with all the fellows she ' s lead, It ' s a cinch that she won ' t be an old maid. 31 il White is barker for a ring, Dempster is a statesman, sure thing! Helen Distler has accepted a ring. And Merlin Berberiek still does sing. Roy Kohler is a movie actor, Elsie Mumby is a scientific farmer; A checker fancier is Joe Ostrander, Sylvia is a business college instructor. Charles Engers clerks in a dry goods store, Pearl Jordon is a window decorator. Lucille is a cartoonist for the old Spectator, And Wesley of Woodland is now the mayor. Aline Fisher dresses hair. A baseball player is Irvin Linsenmeir. Oscar fills orders for soda and Hires, Viola Lambert sings in a church choir. Edwin Sawyer is a landscape gardener. Ella Baldwin is an expert stenographer. An orphan asylum matron is Margaret Stockbarger, And Charles Van Winkle is a wise astronomer. Logan Woodward is a peppermint king, Gladys Ainlay is in the married ring; D. J. Graham is mining engineering And Rex Van Tilbury has started coupon tearing. Lois excels in music, rhyme, and prose. Margaret Zorniger is demonstrating clothes. Realizing this may make me many foes. My own name and future I never shall disclose. E. Meckelnbukg, ' 16. zzy L m s D D HARDY STEBBINS. Stebbie Class Pres. ' 16; Track ' 13, ' 15; Pres. of Athletic Association ' 16 ; B. B.

To strive, to strike, to find, but not to fail. WHEX we entered High School as Freshies we Mere as green as the rest and perhaps more so ; but our green was of an inferior quality, for by the time we had given our Freshman Party not even a trace of that Irish color could be discovered in our makeup. In our Freshman Year we did not do much in athletics, but in the second and third we furnished our share of men, and it appears we will do so the fourth year. The Sophomore Year is always conceded to be the live- liest of a class ' s career. Therefore when we became Soph- omores, a year of action was expected by the other stu- dents, especially because we were then an extra large class ; but their expectations were never realized. We just drifted along, as if in a dream, and never woke even long enough to give a dance or party. We thus lived a peace- ful, dreamy life until our present school year, when we were jarred into sensibility by the members of our class having credits enough jumping to the Senior class. Then with half our class gone, we were labelled hope- less. Immediately, however, we sprang into prominence, like the fabled bean-stock of Jack the giant-killer. In an amazingly short time, we originated so many successful money making schemes, that we were called the school financiers. We not only made money, but we have to our credit several social functions, and if our plans carry, sev- eral of those to come, will be the fruit of our labors. So as a melodramatist woidd say, we came into our own, and we hope we shall always remain there. :zvx: nz s ZD X) WILBUR GARTNER.

At this time there was some disagreement concerning the election of officers, but we compromised by elect- ing officers from both divisions, and were united. This year we reorganized and drew up a constitution, to bring about a better understanding among the class members both for social and school purposes. We are the first class to have a constitution. While we were Freshmen we gave a very successful party, to which each member of our class invited a guest. This year we have given two parties, one on St. Valentine ' s day and the other on St. Patrick ' s day. We have been assured that everybody has enjoyed these parties. Our class has not only made itself known along social lines, but also in athletics. We have been exceedingly well represented in Foot Ball, Base Ball, Basket Ball, and Track. The Class of ' 18 won the Turkey Run Contest of last year. We also have the only boy in school holding a class numeral. vn X) IBX) Sophomore Studends Ainlay, Claytina Albert, Paul Bachtel, Kent Battles. Ruby Beard, James Beehler.

The Freshman class has done exceptionally well in the athletic line considering the time they have been in school. The class was well represented in the foot-hall and basket-ball squads, and beyond doubt some of these men will secure places on the first team next year. There is also material that should give strong bids for places on the track and baseball squads, as soon as this branch of athletics is taken up for the season. - Floyd Bellairs Phanor Howlett Gladys Grills Eugene Heick Purple and White White Rose One of the most important dates of the year was October 23, 1915, when the Freshmen invited members of the other classes to a party. Another important date was November 23, when the Freshmen gave a very suc- cessful play, ' ' My Wife ' s Bonnet, the first play at- tempted by a Freshman class. The Class wishes to thank the teachers who have done so much for us, that we can some day take the places of the Seniors with honor.

The class of ' 91 was one of the first classes, I think the very first, in the history of the M. H. S. to graduate more boys than girls, there being four of the former and two of the latter in our membership of six. A quarter of a century is a long period of time, but time can never efface from my memory the recollection of many happy days in the old High School building on Lincoln Way West. Class of ' 16, I wish you well when I wish that in the years to come the memory of your high school days may be as pleasant to you as is mine to me. Ralph W. Gaylok, ' 91. 1897 We had a great class, nine boys and seven girls, Class of ' 97, easy to remember. Every alumnus would natur- ally feel that his class was above the average. It is a mistake, however, to dwell in the past or try to live in the future. The past gives us memories and should give us valuable lessons, — the lessons of experience. The future should give us lofty ideals, a vision is always essential to great success. The mistake most people niake, however, is their inability to live in the present. If anyone asks you what is the best time to live, tell him now. We are sure of the now but not sure of the tomorrow. The Class of 1916 is the most important Class now because it has the most vital influence for good and for strength in this commun- ity. As individuals we should follow the same idea. Look about you, study the things near at hand, one is always nearer the true source of his power than he thinks. Do not despise your own place in life — your opportunities, they are all around. Learn now to observe and enjoy and make the most of every day affairs and your life will be successful in every sense. Ralph H. Jebxegan, ' 97. 1902 For one to crown his youth with a High School diploma, worthily bestowed, should esteem the event as one of the happiest and proudest of his career. It has been said that first impressions are the most permanent and from the experience of the past, the Class of 1902 extends to the Class of 1916 its assurance that association with the Mishawaka High School will be a most valuable asset in the battle of life. As the ancient Greeks dedicated their Temples of Learning to Athena and the Romans to Minerva, so has the modern world come to idealize that greatest of all powers, in Intelligence. May the class of 1916 realize the potency of this virtue and dedicate it to uses, noble, glorious and exalted. Ralph S. Feig, ' 02. jzvx: D D Some Greetings From Class Presidents 1905 While we reflect to the old Mishawaka High School pleasant memories of Prof. J. F. Nuner ' s psychology class reveal themselves to us; as well as the search for the unknown in the chemical laboratory under the direction of Miss Abbey. As Caesar divided Gaul into three parts: So our class was divided into the Latin, German and English course. Following the curriculum it was the aim and desire of the Class of ' 05, all through the four years of High School training to gain that which is best and highest. B. M. Hutchinson, M. A., President of Class 1905. 1908 The Class of 1906 wishes the members of the Class of 1916 not an easy journey, but health, strength, and en- thusiasm to meet and overcome obstacles, progressing in spite of them and growing stronger and better because of them. Jerry H. Service, Pres. of Class 1906. 1908 As you are about to take up your duties of making the world better, and your lives worth while, it is our wish that you accomplish your task, and gain the reward of joy. Fred H. Doolittle, Pres. of Class 1908. 1911 It is indeed a pleasure for me to be able to extend a few words of greeting to dear old M. H. S. through the medium of the Miskodeed. I remember the first Misko- deed well, and I know if as much energy and sincerity is spent in the construction of the present issue as was ex- pended by the ' 12 Class, it surely will be a success. As I write I cannot help but feel how nice it would be to see the members of the ' 11 class together again. It truly seems a shame that friendships formed during high school days should be so completely forgotten in so short a time. I for one would certainly welcome any plan whereby a successful reunion could really be affected, and if such a movement is ever attempted, I extend my heartiest co-operation. Otto M. Gartner, Pres. of Class 1911. vx: m s ZD ZHj IE, ID 1913 The Class of ' 13 extends its greetings to the M. H. S. We sincerely hope that the various school and social activi- ties are still carried on with that same old spirit which was so evident when we were there. Although three long years have scattered us to the four winds, we still and always will have a warm spot in our hearts for the old High School. We wish you well. Warren E. Edwards, Pres. of Class 1913. 1914 Although it has heen only two years since we left Misha- waka High School, our class has already scattered in many directions. But could the Class of 1914 speak together, I am sure our wish woidd he that you have every success. Lewis B. Laxg, Pres. of Class 1914. Alumni In College Ethelyn Partridge, ' 08.

OFFICERS President Secretary-Treasurer Marie Buckel Helen Distler THE Art Club, one of the newer organizations to the credit of the school, has shown its value by creating an interest and appreciation for the famous artists and their works. This clu b brings the general public in closer connection with the art department by having an art exhibit at the close of the school year. A Living Picture Festival was also given last year, for the first time. As it was a rousing success, it will probably become an annual affair in M. H. S. zzvr: m s ID IE ZE, ID DER DEUTSCHE VEREIN OFFICERS President . - Secretary and Treasurer Calvin Hunsberger Emma Schmidt WE, being the youngest and smallest oragnization of the school, are proud to say that we have grown immensely since the beginning of the school year of 1916 when we first organized as Der Deutsche Verein of M. H. S. German clubs will be found in most all modern High Schools where the German Department is advanced enough to interest the pupils. This interest is not only enjoyable but mostly educational in that it gives the stu- dent an opportunity to speak the German language more as we do our own, also to study the cus- toms, buildings, institutions, legends, and the German people themselves, compar- ing all these to ours. Our club meets every two weeks, al- ways having an interesting program planned which takes away the monotony of every day classes. This thrifty little club has shown the school that it is very much alive by giving a very successful Christmas program on December 22, to which all the members of the German classes as well as their parents were in- vited. As most of the present members of the club are Seniors, we hope that the coming classes will take up our well founded movement and continue the good work so that it will grow to be a leading organization to th e credit of the Language Department of the school. E. Schmidt, 16. Socks and Buskins THE dramatic club, Socks and Buskins, was organized in the Fall of 1914 for the promotion of dramatic ability and appreciation in the High School. Its membership is limited, and elections are made by the society upon the recommendation of the English depart- ment. When the club met in September, 1915, the following officers were elected: D. J. Graham, president; Dema Leopold, vice-president; Josephine Ahara, secretary; Miss Howe, treasurer; and James Sweitzer, business manager. The club gave the play Per Telephone, at Lyceum, March 31, and is furnishing its best material for the Senior Play, Twelfth Night. Since the members are largely upper classmen, they have been too busy to do much in a social way this year, but, everybody did enjoy our sleighride party out to Jim Sweitzer ' s last winter.

But if the Lyceum was not here, the spirit was. At last the real thing itself came. The old plan of two societies — the Philosophian and Adelo- sophian — was done away with. A new Literary Society was or- ganized of which every student is a member. This society through its committee composed of a representative of each class and of the fac- ulty, has planned and given a literary program every two weeks. Under this plan much talent of a wide variety has been shown, making the Lyceums a success. At the end of the year, the best features of the programs were taken, and a Lyceum Review was given. Social Events ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION PARTY September 17th THE Social season of the school year opened on Sep- tember 17th with a party given by the girls of the Athletic Association. The party was the outcome of a membership contest between the girls and the boys, and the girls being the losers, it fell to them to entertain the boys. The most interesting feature of the evening was a crab race which was won by Mr. Horton. You should see our principal go across the Auditorium, backwards, on his hands and feet! In a clothespin contest, Sir. Sem- ler ' s division defeated Miss Parry ' s, and in the football contest, Mr. Legg was successful, his side succeeding in kicking (blowing) the football (an egg) through the goal the most times. Dancing Mas enjoyed by many. The refreshments were a fitting close to the evening ' s enter- tainment. FIRST SOCIAL CLUB October 1st The first Social Club was held on October first and was attended by a very small crowd. The evening was spent in dancing by those who could, and those who did not dance did nothing but watch those who did. The redeeming feature came at 10 o ' clock when the ice cream and cookies made their appearance on the scene. FRESHMAN PARTY October 15th The Freshman party, given on October 15th, was one of the most delightful social functions of the year. The Auditorium was artistically decorated in purple and white, the class colors. White and purple streamers, corn stalks, and jack-o ' -lanterns were used with good effect. First, everyone was given a chance to get acquainted. The girls were told to sit down in every other seat which woidd leave an empty seat on each side of them. The boys were then told to go and sit between two girls. As soon as they had had time to get acquainted, a signal was given and the boys had to move aong to the next place. The next thing Mas the grand march, in which the line extended clear across the Auditorium. Those that did not dance played Winkum. A dainty luncheon Mas served in the dining room. As the Social editor ' s stock phrase runs, A good time Avas had by all. SOCIAL CLUB October 22nd The Social Club met for the second time October 22nd. Mr. Legg Mas on the committee, so, of course, everyone had a fine time. Games were planned for the entertain- ment of those who did not care to dance. One had to be blindfolded and whirled around three times, and then try V L IE S to blow out a candle. We also tried to entertain ourselves by playing Train like little children. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing after which refresh- ments were served. ART CLUB PARTY October 27th The Art Club entertained their friends with a dancing party October 27th. The idea of Hallowe ' en was carried out in the decorations, and spirits and ghosts moved among the dancers during the moonlight dance, which gave a true artistic atmosphere. The programs, painted with the Club emblem and a skull and cross bones, were made by the members of the Club. (Such a time as they did have painting them.) Although several Senior boys did run off with some of the cider, everyone had enough and judging from the actions of some, it must have been rather aged. SOCIAL CLUB November 24th Roughneck Nite was observed by the girls of the Senior class at a meeting of the Social Club held on Nov. 24th. In honor of the occasion, the girls made their ap- pearance in dust caps and aprons. It was a very pleas- ing sight and made us wonder if they ever wore them at home. Kenneth Oliver helped them carry out the idea by wearing blue overalls. Dancing and refreshments, as usual, were the main features of the evening. TD y X) SOCKS AND BUSKINS SLEIGH-RIDE December 16th The Socks and Buskins had a sleigh-ride December 16th, and such a good time as everybody did have at Sweitzer ' s! There were marshmallows and weenies (after Jim and Mil went to town and got them, for, of course, Oscar was so slow he missed the bob). We all had the very best time ever, and arrived home safe and sound without being frozen. YULETIDE MIXER December 22nd On the afternoon of December 22nd, the Athletic Association gave a party, appropriately called A Yule- tide Mixer. It and the other games were played. During the afternoon, a track meet was held. Mr. Hor- ton was successful in the aeroplane flight, displaying his unusual ability of speaking. Mr. Horton, Where ' s my prize? In the high jump it was very amusing to watch the blindedfolded boys try to jump over supposedly high piles of books, when in reality there was only one. After the dancing, refreshments were served. GIRLS ' GYM CLASS PARTY January 20th Our first gym party was a booming success. It was given in the H. S. gym, which was so dolled up it was izvx: m almost beyond recognition. It was practically a Leap Year party for every girl asked a partner. The entertainment consisted of Volley Ball, every one taking part. As the crowd was not as large as expected, everyone received an enormous dish of fruit salad and — one large bun. SOPHOMORE PARTY February 14th On February 14th, the Sophomores had a St. Valen- tine ' s party, which was the first of a series of parties to be given by the class. Just the members of the class and the faculty were present. Appropriate games were played and refreshments were served. A good time was re- ported by all who attended. JUNIOR PARTY March 8th One of the best parties of the year was given on March 8th by the Juniors, our class. The decorations were very striking (by their absence) as we decided to be original and not have any. Early in the evening, Web, our president, awarded the prizes to the winners in the ticket sale for our benefit performance at the Temple. Myrna Holmes and Albert Stanley each received a foun- tain pen, and Bemadette Buchheit and Raymond Hass each a month ' s pass to the show. In Follow the Leader, Bob led us all around the darkened Auditorium, the three ZD IE, Z ID halls, and even behind the scenes and over the foot-lights on the stage. In a peanut contest, Ethel (Fred Seifert) , Bob ' s girl, located the most peanuts, and as a reward, re- ceived a sack of same. After much coaxing and urging, we all lined up for Three Deep. In Winkum, Mr. Sender proved to be, by far, the most popular man, when the girls were winking, or trying to wink. Dancing was enjoyed by a very few. At the proper time, all rushed to the dining room where the eats consisted of salad, wafers, rolls, and maple rice sundae. Ethel ate amid a shower of rolls, and even an egg (which was supposed to have been boiled but which had not) was thrown at him. SOPHOMORE PARTY March 16th St. Patrick ' s day was celebrated by the Sophomore class with a very successful party. The class departed from its previous custom and decided that each one should invite a guest. Green predominated in the decorations, there being many green colored electric lights and green streamers, which gave a very pleasing effect. During the evening Mae Williams sang A Little Bit of Heaven. In a snake hunt ( little pieces of rope painted green) , Irvin Beehler (who helped hide them) located the largest number of snakes and received the prize, which turned out to be the privilege of telling a story. He responded with an Irish joke. The next thing on the program was Follow the Leader, in which Earl Chrisman led the crowd all over the darkened building. Three Deep, It, and dancing- were also indulged in. During the latter part of the even- ing, the boys and girls matched shamrocks and dressed clothespin dolls with green crepe paper. Refreshments including Shamrock rolls, veal timbales, Irish peas, and cocoa, were served in the dining room at small tables decorated with green candles and carnations. PUBLIC SPEAKING PARTY April 17th The Public Speaking Class — or in other words — the Mishawaka House of Representatives decided to honor Milo Boles with a party, for having the most points of anyone in the class. Due to the unparalleled brilliancy of the members in the class the party was by no means a failure. A mock trial, which was composed of a jury of learded members was the chief feature of the evening. Each member was also given a chance to show his abilitty in speaking. Last, but not the least refreshments were served and the whole affair was one grand success. JUNIOR PROM AND BANQUET June 2nd The last but by far the most important social event of the year will be given June 2nd when the Junior class will give the Senior class a Promenade and Banquet at the Hotel Mishawaka. The effect of good music is not caused by its novelty. On the contrary, it strikes us all the more forcibly the more familiar we are witli it. — Goethe. Musical History THIS is the third year for the Department of Music. The entire course consists of Harmony, History of Music, and Musical Appreciation. The Seniors and Juniors are admitted into this, and any student may belong to the chorus. The History of Music is presented in form of lectures, no text-book being used. Much outside reading is re- quired. The first semester is given to the study of medi- eval music, the epoch of vocal counterpoint, and develop- ment of the opera and oratorio. The remainder of the year is given to biographical study of the great names of history from Bach down to the present time. The Musical History class meets four periods a week, receiving one credit each semester; and the chorus one period, receiving one-fourth credit. The musical Appreciation is carried on by the use of the Victrola, and by visiting artists. The chorus gave a Christmas entertainment consisting of Christmas Carols both Ancient and Modern. The Story ' ' 7 OU know since my mother died I have been going J through her effects to see what was worth keeping and what not. I ran across a peculiar thing the other day — a letter written by Lady Norwood to my mother in 1827. The letter is not peculiar in itself but the story it contains is. Would you like to hear it? The speaker was an Englishman of the usual type ; tall, gaunt and sandy haired, who with a group of companions was lounging in the smoking room of a London club. Having received an affirmative answer he began. Well, Lady Norwood and several companions, three ladies and five gentlemen whose names my mother didn ' t mention, were traveling from Dover to London by coach. It seems from her letter that robbers and robberies were a current topic of conversation as she says ' The talk naturally turned to robbers and their latest depredations, ' which seemed to make one fussy old gentleman so ex- tremely nervous that he had confided to his fellow passen- gers that he had the sum of £20 with him at that precise moment. ' Everyone suggested a place to hide his money, under the floor, or the rug, or the cushions, or in his hat till finally a stout fair woman told him his boot was a good place. This pleased him so he proceeded to put the suggestion into practice. ' After it grew darker, the letter reads, ' they actually were held up. A masked man throwing open the door and pointing a large revolver at all of them at once de- manded money. They were all very frightened but the stout fair woman who without a moment ' s hesitation said, ' You ' ll find what you want in that gentleman ' s boot. ' The robber looked doubtful for a second but finally roughly jerked off the boot and grabbing the money slammed the door and was gone. Immediately every one plied the woman with questions in regard to her strange act. She only smiled and refused to divulge her purpose but stated that if all of them would come to her London residence for dinner the next evening she would tell her reasons. Lady Norwood wrote that she went and found the house to be in a very respectable neigh- borhood and that they had an excellent dinner after which they went to the drawing room where the hostess made ready to tell them what they were all exceedingly curious to know, but just at that part she began a new page evidently, for the rest of the letter is missing to the last page on which she closes her letter by saying, ' Would you give any one credit for so much presence of mind? ' Evidently the woman ' s excuses were sufficient for such an admission could only be given by satisfied curiosity. I ' ve thought and thought of a solution of this woman ' s strange action, but can find none. Perhaps some of you can. With which the speaker walked away with a — yes, I could swear to it — with a twinkle in his eye. D. J. Graham, ' 16. izysz m s THE SPHIXX HEAD O the wind it had howled for seven long months, And the snow had been piled on high ; And the grayness of earth, when the snow disappeared ; Reflected the gray of the sky. High up on the mount of 111 Success Is a rock which is known as Sphinx Head, ' Tis a massive face with deep set eyes, And has passions of men it is said. The feeble rays of the sun that tried To brighten this dreary place, Were partly shut out by a giant rock That loomed ' twixt the sun and the face. Such queer, pale rays fell over the face That the features seemed to move ; And a darkening scowl to settle there, And deepen the forehead ' s grove. A caravan crossing the mountain range Was winding its way up the side, When a trickling stream of pebbles and stones With soft sound began to slide. The company hearing the sound looked up. There arose from their midst, piercing shrieks; But boulders, caravan, and shrubs tumbled down, Down, down to the valley beneath. When the boulder was gone the rays of the sun Flooded the bare, rocky place, And the moment the glitter fell over the hear, A smile seemed to light-up the face. Lois Garvin, ' 16. ID IB ZE, ZD A SOXG UNSTUDIED Wind, a-blowing all day long, 1 want to understand your song. Is your whisper to the trees A secret that ' s not meant for me?

I ran and ran — I nearly fell, And every time I stepped. The snow would squeak — The bell, the bell ' Twas ' cause I overslept. My face all raw from cold and snow, My hair all down my back — I rushed into the hall and lo! The clock ' s hand moved — a-lack — Just when I reached the class-room door It slammed right in my face; I ' ll never hurry anymore To get into that place. For poetry they had to write That very morn you see; I had to stay up most all night Next morn prepared to be. Emma Schmidt, ' 16.

AT STORY-TIME When the sun has hid away Behind the purple hills, And the fire-light in the grate, casts Big, dark shadows on the walls — Then Grandma draws her warm chair close And folds her hands — just so, And looks deep down into the flames Where bed-time stories grow. She tells us all about brave knights Who did the best of things, And ' bout a little cripple-boy, And tiny fairy rings; Of David and Goliath, And a funny country choir. And how she, when a little girl, Saved Grandpa from a fire. When I grow up and get to be A Grandma, then I ' ll do just as my own, dear Grandma does In Story-land — won ' t you? Ruth Lechlitner, ' 19. Oh! Those Graduating Books! Longstreets had just received a supply of gradua ting- books, which were eagerly bought by the Seniors, who considered these part of their graduation. The next morning the greetings received b} r everybody were Will you write in my book? Dorothy, who was one of the first to get a book, ran up to Fred, who hap- pened to be working this morning, saying, Oh Fred, write in my book this period, because I want to give you the honor of writing first. Hey, Cy, give me a line too, said George, who also had a book, and had heard the request of Dorothy ' s. All right, I ' ll write in both of them at the end of the period. I told Legg I would have this stuff ready to hand in to him this morning. How slow the clock moves when one is idle, but Fred was sure that to-day the clock had been fixed by Mr. Weaver, so that now it moved by jumps. It was now ten minutes after nine. Fred realized that if he did not stop working, and write in Dorothy ' s book — well also George ' s — that he woud not say just what he wanted to. Fred stopped his work and picked up George ' s book. He thought he would write in it first, then he would have the rest of the time to write in Dorothy ' s. While writing- in George ' s book, his mind naturally flew to Dorothy — and her book. So busy was he that he thought of nothing but Dorothy and her book. Oh! At last that writing was done and Fred started to write in the other book. He finished his writing in this book in a minute and hurried to return both of them. Out of the Assemby room Fred rushed and left poor George reading this : ' Friend Geo.: — We have had some good times to- gether, and I believe I have enjoyed mostly the many par- ties at your house. ' Well — say — when did I ever have Cy at my house to a party? pondered George. ' A person like you of such womanly qualities — Say, I like his nerve! said George. T can say of the two types, I always admired bru- nettes, and you certainly — ' That poor man! he ' s crazy. Anybody with common sense knows I haven ' t dark eyes and hair. He surely was busy comparing me to Queen Elizabeth or somebody in his history, madly raged George. 2vt:i s ' When you go to St. Mary ' s school, I wish — Well of all things. Me going to that girls ' school! He surely must think I ' m a sissy. While George was reading this, Dot was standing at the window on the first landing, with her hook in front of her reading: ' Dear Geo. : — You ' re a real for sure hustler. Best wishes. Fred Seifert ' . ZD ZE, za ID While Dot was looking out of the window and think- ing — oh! so hard — George came up to Dot and said, Say, let me see your book. Just at this moment along came Fred, who had to acknoweldge that while he was writing in George ' s book that he was thinking or — Oh, well — what he was going to write in Dorothy ' s book, that he wrote down his thoughts. Then he was in such a hurry that he thought he had written in Dot ' s book first and took only a minute to write in George ' s book. Class ' 17. izvxl m s FRESHMAN IT was just a week before the annual Junior Prom. The Art class was as usual discussing the latest occurrences and gossip of High School, when the subject of the Prom was brought up. Aren ' t you glad it ' s to be at the Mishawaka this year, Marie? asked Gladyse. Olives! Won ' t it be wonderful ! I can hardly wait. Well, I ' m not crazy about going. The fellow I asked had just received an invitation from that Jones girl and she knew all the time I intended asking him. I had to ask some one else and a Freshman at that. By the way who have you asked to the Prom? Mm, he ' s awful cute, but I ' m not going to tell any one. You ' ll see him when we get there. Oh that ' s not fair. If I tell you, will you tell me? Well, all right! Gladyse leaned over and whispered his name in Marie ' s ear. Ted Matthews! Why, surely he ' s not going with you is he? Why, yes. Why? But I Did you ask him, too? I surely did and he accepted my invitation, too. But he said he ' d go with me! Questions and arguments followed until by the end of the period both girls were thoroughly indignant over the blundering Freshman. After class they sought him out, ZD JEL, ZE, ID and before he realized what was happening, he was minus both invitations to his first Junior Prom. It is sincerely hoped that such a mistake will not occur this year, but then Ted was a Freshman and what can one expect ? Marye Stearns, ' 17. OPHELIA Once in Senior English class, We were studying, alas, About that foolish little lass — Fair Ophelia. When her father was laid flat (Hamlet stabbed him throu a slat) She got looney as a bat — Fond Ophelia. In a sort of senseless mumble She about her pa did grumble, But she took a serious tumble — Did Ophelia. While she tottered on the brink With ne ' er a wit to help her think. She up and fell into the drink — Poor Ophelia. Now she lives beyond the skies, In a place called Paradise, And with wings she haply flies. Angel Ophelia. Eleanor Meckelxburg, ' 16. V L m ZD ZEy IS 3D Circus ! ! ! ! Come! Come! Come! to the Big ' M ' Circus! And they came! Crowds upon crowds wended their way to our show. The tent was pitched, the participants ready, the barkers barking, and the audiences excited and expect- ant — whole minutes before time to begin. The parade was as usual a great draw card. Like all good circus parades it was a trifle late, but the mobs of peope lined up along the main streets felt duly repaid when headed by the drum corps it actually made its ap- pearance; and looked longingly after the disappearing calliope. However, they must all have firmly resolved to take in the big show in the evening. The midway was thronged with people of all ages, from the time the tents ' white wings were thrown back until the wee small hours of to-morrow. Then the big draw ! — the tumbling tumblers, the fluffy little Mdle. Schmidt tight rope walker, and last but far, far from least Miss Rainbow, with her loads of pretty saucy chorus girls and chic young men. Thus, our marveloous three-ringed side-show circus passed, screaming, nay howling spiff, pep and above all good fellowship and school spirit. RTHLETO r Leaders THIS is Semler ' s first year with us, and he has already won a place in the heart of every person in the school. He can play basket ball or football as good as he can coach it, and he never hesitates to bump a recruit over when he needs it. Any player would do his best in a game, if for no other reason than to see Sender smile after it has been won. Mr. Legg was a right hand man during the basket ball season. He helped out especially during the Inter- class games. Davis is our track coach having been a crack runner himself when he was in college, and is well worthy of the position. Davis expects to develop a track team this year that will carry off some honors. At the first of the track season C. Snyder, winner of the two-mile inter-class turkey run last fall and a very promising mile and half mile runner this spring, was elected captain of the team. Unfortunately, throat trouble caused him to quit track work, and Mumby was elected captain in his place. Mumby is an all-round athlete, with the quarter mile as his specialty. Seifert was captain of the football team and also the captain of the basket ball team until he became ineligible to play. Seifert was certainly able to fill both jobs as he had plenty of experience in both games. In basket ball he played in a form that was hard to beat giving encour- agement to his men whenever he thought they needed it. At football Seifert played quarter back and directed the plays like an old veteran. Stebbins succeeded Seifert at basket ball captain and proved equally as good. Boles, our yell leader, used his ability to round up enthusiasm in great shape and a game was not played when Mike did not keep the rooters busy and the gym rinsrinsr. DDT BALL ZVXI IE s D D WHEN Coach Semler came to our school he brought with him, along with the many other things, a head full of football. Realizing the benefit that could be derived from this, M. H. S. in general decided that they would never again be without a football team. Football experience was a thing that certainly was lacking in the school, but by using Captain Seifert, Heick and Boles as corner posts the places were soon filled. But due to a lack of experience our team lost three out of the five schedule games. A great deal will he expected of our team next year as the majority of the players will be back and they can put up some scrap. SUMMARY OF EACH GAME Oct. 9— M. H. S. 0. South Bend 4.5. This game proved that Mishawaka had a team com- posed of material worth while for in spite of all the heavy line plungers of S. B. ' s big men not a single player showed any signs of giving up, but all fought the harder to keep down the score, which otherwise woidd have been much larger. Oct. 17— M. H. S. 0, Elkhaet 14. Our team put up a splendid fight for this game, break- ing up Elkhart ' s passes and runs in a fine style. The M. H. S. team played a good defensive game and succeeded zzv m s ID ZE ZE, HD in keeping the opponent ' s score comparatively low but they lacked the punch to put the ball across the goal line. Oct. 24.— M. H. S. 47, Wakakusa 0. This game proved an easy one for the locals; every plays which netted them some lengthy gains, but in time seemed against the Wakarusa bunch, and everything went wrong. Oct. 30— M. H. S. 0, Goshen 31. This game was the biggest disappointment of the sea- son; it shows what over-confidence will do for a team. Throughout the game the defence was poor in both line and field and the offence was comparatively the same. In the last quarter when our team recovered its fighting spirit and played in the enemies ' territory. Nov. 7— M. H. S. 27, Wakakusa 0. At the start of this game Wakarusa pulled off several plays which netted them some lengthy gains but in time these were recovered and the Maroon and Whites settled down to business and hammered out 27 points by real old time football. jzvn m s X) X) Yell; Beat South Bend!

Kohl 1 IZVXl m s D X) Basket Ball IMMEDIATELY after the football season was over every boy that could play basket ball was out trying for a place on his class team, for Coach Seniler had decided that inter-class basketball would be the best way for him to get a line on the material for the squad. As a result of this, he picked a squad of seventeen men and out of these he picked for the team: Miller and Seifert for- wards. Hunt center, Stebbins, Berberick and Kohler guards, as utility men Crurn and Boles were first choice. Late in the season when Kohler and Seifert became ineligi- ble. Shreive and Swanger got a chance to serve. Captain Seifert was a fast, clever player, one who could make a basket from almost any place on his side of the center ring. Miller was also fast and worked fine with Seifert. Miller had a good way of throwing the ball over his head with one hand and could use it to a good advantage when it came to shooting in a tight place. Hunt as center was seldom out jumped, and never out played and while he did not get so many baskets, he made up for it by feeding the ball to his team mates. Stebbins played floor guard and seemed to be every- where at once. Whenever a basket was needed to tie the score — the fans all looked to Stebby for it. Berberick at back guard was not afraid to hit his man hard, and made his man earn every basket he got. Kohler played guard and could always be depended upon. Cruni could play anywhere but seemed to be better at guard, and ought to make a good man next year. Boles took Seifert ' s place and can play good ball if he does not get mad. Jim declares he is not afraid of any per- son living whether large or small. This Basket Ball team was the first one the M. H. S. ever had that went through a whole season without losing a game on the home floor, however nearly all of the games were close and the scores small. Probably the best game of the season was with South Bend. The teams of the past have always feared S. B. but they should no longer be considered dangerous for the jinx is broken and it never again will be placed in our path. Next to this comes the game with Elkhart. They had just finished winning the championship in their district, when it came time for us to play them. The tilt showed some excellent guarding on both sides; this was almost a necessity, for Statu: for Elkhart and Boles for Mishawaka were in good shooting form. Laporte gave the maroon and whites the worst beating they received. Hampson had a horse shoe concealed some where on his person, for without such he could never have made some of the deep goals he did. The team did not enter the tournament as was expected, due to the loss of Seifert and Kohler, which so crippled the team that it could not be brought back into shape in time for this meet. Possibly this may account for the loss of the games with East Chicago, Goshen and Xappanee as the fellows were not yet accustomed to playing together when these games were played. zzv : nz s ZD IK ZE ID First Row.

This perhaps was due to the condition of the track in the early part of the season, but it has since been rolled and is now in a good condition, so the fellows will probably come to the aid of our team in the finals. In a practice meet with South Bend, Mumby succeeded in getting second place in the high jump and Capt. C. Snyder in getting second in the mile. In another meet with South Bend and Laporte, Capt. Snyder again got a place in the mile and A. Snyder a place with the discus; and it is safe to say that Mumby would have also received points had he not got a cramp in his side, for both he and Crum did better in practice than at the meet. During this meet Capt. Snyder received an injury in his chest which forced him to drop track for this year. Mumby was chosen Captain in his place. Another meet will be held with South Bend and Goshen before the Northern Indiana event so our team still has time for improvement. At present the team stands as follows : Mile - - - - D. Emersoi Half Mile - A.

The Athletic Association is the largest and most active organization of the school. At the beginning of the school year, a membership contest was held between the boys and girls which resulted in almost one hundred per cent of the students joining. However, at the close of the contest the girls were forced to entertain in honor of the boys. Not only are all athletics under the control of this association, but also all oratorical and scholastic contests. This included our representation in the Indiana Discussion Contest- and in the Northern Indiana meet. The closing event of this, the most active year in the history of the M. H. S. Athletic Association, will be a Base Ball game and Field Day held in the Ball-Band Park, followed by a picnic in Battell Park, May 29. The athletic stunts will consist of: Five inning Base Ball game between the Seniors and an All-Star Team from M. H. S. 100 yard dash for boys. 100 yard dash for girls. 50 yard dash for boys. 50 yard dash for girls. Circling bases against time (Boys). - Hardy Stebbins Wilbur Gartner Dorothy Mix Prof. Nuner 880 yard relay for boys. After the game and field meet the members will go to Battell Park for a picnic feed. After the feed a short program will be given consisting of granting sweaters to the basket ball men, and M ' s to the Base Ball men ; and the laying of plans for next year.

Why, of course!! So to speak, we have some team! If you do not believe it look at the scores of the two outside games. Of course we realize that we played with a team that did not have the practise, but nevertheless if we had not had players like our own Emmie and Captain Dema we would not have won. Most of the first team players leave this year, but there are people in the gym class who promise to be sec- ond Demas and Emmies. The basket ball games during gym slass proved amusing as well as profitable, especially when some new people were put in to play or when one side lost and they told why or where you had to guard Dema (impossible) or when Mildred and Marian both wanted to stand on the same spot.

BASE BALL 2VLI S D D Base Ball AS the M. H. S. Athletic Association was not able financially to support a Base Ball team, and as it was not desirable to let it die out altogether in our school, it was decided that inner school ball would be played. Accordingly Coach Sender appointed Kohler, Sawyer, Van Winkle and Williams as captains, each to pick a team. A series of games were to be played, each team playing the others twice. An out of town game will be arranged for the winning team. There has been many predictions as to the result of this series. Every game thus far has had a fair sized crowd of spectators. The line-up for each team is as follows : Captain Sawyer Kohler Van Winkle Williams Catcher Sawyer McMillen Brady Bachtel Pitcher Linsenmier Seifert Van Winkle Minzey First Base Heick Robbins Cuddahy Milo Boles Second Base Montine Waidner Stein Hunsberger Short Stop Swanger Jontz Burnett Williams Third Base Stanley Kohler McGrew Beehler Left Field Stebbins Obenchain Futter Stebbins Center Field Munsee Swinehart Marker Hitchiner Right Field Stubbs Shirk Blohoviak Meckelnburg Substitute Pahucki Quick Bellairs Van Tilbury :2vy: m s Z) X) Tennis Champions ROGER WILLIAMS ' DEMA LEOPOLD izvy: jz s ID IE IE 3D Tennis Tournament ALONG with the other athletics of the school the students interested in lighter games organized a Tennis Club: A tournament was scheduled in which all the members of the club took part. Exceedingly good skill and speed were displayed by those participating. The courts were lined with spectators at all try-outs. Dema Leopold was the winner for the girls ' tourna- ment, while Roger Williams was the winner for the boys ' tournament. The Athletic Association awarded the win- ners numrals for their stellar playing. zvx: m s D S X) Calendar 1915-1916 SEPTEMBER 7. School begins. Freshies, new teachers and other nuisances. 8.
