H IIS Zfofiyeffflffontinitedl The history of the canal system in Indiana begins with an Act of Congress, approved March 2, 1827, which granted to the state, for the purpose of aiding to build a canal to unite the navigable waters of the Maumee and the Wabgisli, a strip of land one half of five sections wide on either side of the canal. Other sections of the state became dissatisfied and began to agitate internal improvements. As a result the Mam- moth Internal Improvements Bill was passed in 1826. It provided for canals, railways, or pikes to be built to suit local conditions. The Wabash and Erie Canal from Fort Wfayne to Huntington was opened 1835. W'hile the canals and turnpikes were the chief beneficiaries of the Internal Improve- ments Law, they were not, as a rule, successful, and the panic of 1837 complicated matters further. The repeal of this law in 1842 marked the beginning of the railroad era. The people were rid of an illusion of state-owned enterprises and ready to go to work by private means. Building of railroads was not begun, immediately, however, because of high tariff on iron. The road from Indianapolis to Madison was built in 1847. The early engines burned wood. which was carried to the tender from ricks along the route. The train would stop to wood up and the crew would make the dead heads do this work. The electric inter-city transit in Indiana had its origin in the Gas Belt region around Marion, Anderson and Muncie. By 1893 the line from Marion to Jonesboro was in use, and this line was extended to Indianapolis by 1901. In 1900 a company was formed to build an electric railway from Muncie to Hartford City. By May 10, 1903, cars ran as far as Montpelier, and the line was extendsd to Bluffton that winter. In the manufacture and use of automobiles. Indiana has played a worthy part. The Marmon, the Stutz, the Auburn, the El Car. and the Studebaker, are Indiana products. Two Montpelier High School boys, John Emshwiller and Nvilliam Goodwin built the first airplane in this section of the state, in the spring of 1919. This was a bi-plane of the Curtis type. Although the boys could not fly the plane successfully, they were able to clear the ground with her. Later, with .1 more powerful engine, Goodwin flew her successfully. Many Indiana boys were in the aviation service during the Woi'ld XVar and many Indiana men are now engaged in aviation. From these facts it can be seen that, in the history of the evolution of transporta- tion, Indiana has played an illustrious part. YT' I . 4 ' 1 I i .4 A ,-A . fc,Qm0 iwislifwiaw mv 39, wi. L2 1, Senior Motor Trip N September, 1928, the Senior Class started on the last nine months' lap of its journey. Violet Peterson was chosen chauffeur and Lester Williams, her assistant. W'ith the helpful knowledge of the class advisers, Martha Bebout and Weir Swaim, the chauffeur stepped on the newly-patented self-starter, Frances East, and started the car. It was thought at first that Sparkplug Martz might cause a little trouble, but with the aid of Gearldine McDonald, the choke, he was silenced. The car had gone but a short distance when Gerald Hiser, the front license, called that the back license, Geraldine Arnold, had been lost. The missing part was recovered and Tail-light Murphy confessed that he had pushed her off. After a few miles, Gasoline Tobler announced that he was a minus quantity. The car was then temporarily stopped, but the old reliable team composed of Schwarzkopf, Morrical, Poulson, Dorton, and Murray pulled the class into a filling station. Here Harry Cochran and Madge Noller held up the proprietor and forced him to buy an ad for the annual. On a corner called Inter-Class Tourney the class was almost wrecked by another car called Juniors, although both horns, Howard Greene and Rose Plank, were blown loudly. However it was saved by the bumpers, Beaulah Day and Kenneth Bennett. ,IN-W 'W S1 f x 3 1 'v l L . fy. 'Q A , e' f , F, T - if 55 -T, rpg. ---t , --i i I , ra- I V. .

Signa Black then told a funny story, by which the joke editor, Margaret Bergman, was overcome with laughter. Charles Pugh, from force of habit, turned out the lights, Helen Irene Benn and Virginia Ray, and left only the spotlight, Alma Robinson. burning. Here William Sinclair remarked that the trip could be made much more easily by airplane. A sudden noise was heard and it was discovered that Crystal Williams, Bernice Booher, and Laura Barner, the tires, had gone flat. The spare tires, Ruth Moss, Mable Rains, and Hoyland Mason, were quickly substituted. The door handles, Caroline Hend- erson, Waldene Booher, Kathryn Redmond, and Agatha Ickes, refused to let people get back into the car. They consented however, after Charlin Burson sang, I Didn't Raise My Ford to be a Taxi, accompanied by Velma Winget on the flute and Clinton Keith on the uke. Having reached our destination, we looked back to discover that Miss Albert- son and Mr. Kelley had been pushing us all the time. A good time was had by all except the usual cranks, Arthur Needler, Paul Strait, and Dwight Garrett. Class Poem To write a poem of the Senior Class You,ll all agree is quite a task, But with a group of such talent and skill We'll not find it hard these pages to fill. With Mister Kelley as class adviser The class will grow and be much wiser, And Miss Albertson is his assistant. For success we are all persistent. Harry Cochran is a very smart man He's a worthy son of old Uncle Sam. Virginia Ray, of musical fame, We hope some day will have a great name. A very nice boy, was Elzie' Hiser He had an oihce as class adviser. Nellie Marie Crabill, a curly-haired lass, Was almost always at the head of her class. Violet Peterson always with her went. She says in the future that she'll be president. A very tall girl is Helen Irene, If she'll be a teacher remains to be seen. Glenn Schwarzkopf, the captain of the team, Was always saying what he didn't mean. The basket-ball fellows would be in a fix If Jim wasn't there with his ten-foot six. It's a good thing the windows don't have locks When Frances arrives at two o'clock. I 4- 1 . .L - VX' 'i ir -v-1' - w .. ..1...... .- 1.. .,,,,-.i 4,4 -- - U?

SENIOR CLASS C , ,,.v, - 'A - '- ' r ini Winners of the Tri Kappa Scholarship Awards 1928 One can hardly appreciate the value of the Tri Kappa Scholarship Award until he has won one for himself. This honor is a goal for which students may strive throughout their high school career. xi CATHERINE CLOUD 'I 'la I was more than pleased to be the boy having the honor of receiving the Tri Kappa Avi 11d These avi ards tend to increase the rating of the L I- school by the students striving, in friendly competition, for the honor Q V'- ' I to be gained from them. HAROLD Flores OTHER AXVARDS HE local high school has been rewarded with honors other than those gained from athletics. Qui' school has participated in many contests and events, in many of which we have come out with flying colors. The most important of all these was the winning of a silver loving cup, by the 1928 Indianian staff, as a mark of first place in Division IV of the annual Newspaper- Yearbook Contest for Indiana High Schools. The Freshman class was the only one represented in the Latin contests this year. In the local contest, Melvin Mason and Russell Trant made the highest scores. Melvin placed lirst and Russell, third in the county contest. In the district, Melvin won fifth place. Our music memory teams made line scores in all their contests. The Junior High Team was composed of: Dorothy Schwarzkopf, Joan Arrick, Doris Keith, Helen Shan- non, and Juanita Hawk. Martha Shadday, Margaret Ray, Leota Hart, Geraldine Bed- well, and Milo Smith constituted the team for the Senior High. Both teams won first in the district and fifth in the state. This year the Kiwanis Club is going to reward the best all-round student of the high school with a diamond pin. This decision will be based on scholarship, citizenship, attitude, cooperation, sportsmanship, and reliability. Those Seniors who have been on the honor roll during the four years of high school are: Martha Bebout, Helen Irene Benn, Charlotte Bixler, Signa Black, Bernice Booher, Waldene Booher, Harry Cochran, Nellie Crabill, Caroline Henderson, Barrington Martz, Hoyland Mason, Madge Noller, Violet Peterson, james Poulson, Mable Rains, Virginia Ray, Kathryn Redmond, and Alma Robinson. ,ix ,Ak arf 7110 isa -tiflrxiism wo ap ,J Class of '28 OLLOWING is the supplement to our High School Alumni Directory.

For those who wish a broader insight and deeper knowledge, Cicero and Virgil are offered alternately. Enrollment in the advanced classes has been above the average for the last two years. Last year William Salyer won second place in the Caesar division of the county contest and represented the county in the district contest at Wabash. Virginia Ray, who represented the county in the Virgil IVA division. won third place in the district, receiving as her reward a bronze medal. This year only the Latin I class was enrolled in the contests. Russel Trant and Melvin Mason made the highest scores in the local contest. In the county, Melvin won first place and Russel third. Melvin also was fifth in the district contest. ENGLISH That English is the most important subject in the curriculum was an assumption that had been taken for granted for a number of years. This assumption was based largely upon the fact that the ability to write and to speak correctly is essential to the mastery of all subjects. Too often, however, this ability was not acquired from a three years' course in English or even from a four years' course. To remedy this condition, last year, a new course of study was outlined by a committee of high school English teachers of the state. The chief difference between this course and the one formerly used is that one-half of each year is spent on the expression side of English, whereas, in the past, in the upper three years, only two-fifths of the time was devoted to this phase of the work. Another difference along this line is that the study of correct expression is taught entirely separate from the study of literature, the two being given in separate semes- ters or quarters and credit being given for achievement in each field, instead of on the combined work of the two fields. Whether this method will be more successful than that used in the past remains to be seen, but from one year's evidence, it seems to work very well. Of course, no method of teaching expression can be successful unless the student has a strong desire and a steady aim to strive toward perfection in this field. For its cul- tural value, the place of literature non disputandum est. Since English embraces both the practical and the cultural, we believe it can rightfully claim first place among high school subjects. SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT The work of the Social Science Department is divided among several teachers. The subjects are given and studied as citizenship courses. Sociology was studied this year by a Senior group, and much interest was shown in the social problems of the day. Voca- tional Information is acquiring an important place by giving the pupil information nec- essary in determining his life work. School Citizenship and Information occupied the attention of all the Junior High School history classes during the first two weeks of school. This work assisted the new pupils in getting adjusted. The modern school must materially assist boys and girls to become good citizens through the study of the Social Sciences. f , , , . xc filly, Xsw WI 1 'txt' N kk 'xx' Ill! pf, . Departments of Instruction---!Cominued1 MATHEMATICS ATHEMATICS is a science which deals with the various applications of mathe- matical thought. the traditional held of which is number and quantity. The history of mathematics is. in the main, the history of the various branches. View- ing the subject as a whole, it may be said to have had its origin with the Greeks, working on pre-existing fragmentary lines of thought from the Egyptians and Phoenicians. Mathematics is an exact science. Its uses and applications are constantly employed for man's need. The basic principles of the most ancient problems are used in the most modern applications. The theoretical and practical value of mathematics is limitless in its scope. Business would cease, the arts dry up. and science and scientific application decay, without it. In the Montpelier High School, students may avail themselves of Arithmetic, Algebra, and Geometry and, by completing the courses offered, make ade- quate preparation for all mathematical credit requirement for entrance into practically any college or university in the United States. SCIENCE Each high school student in Indiana is required to have one year of science train- ing for graduation. Montpelier High offers to her students three sciences, from which they may elect. Sophomores may elect Biologyg juniors or Seniors may elect Chemistry: and any of the three classes may elect Botany. Biology is the science of living things. It teaches the great principles of life, drawing its examples from both plant and animal life. Botany is an organized study of the plant kingdom. One should want to know of bacteria, molds, fungi, mosses, ferns, and the trees of the forest. Chemistry is as old as Aristotle, and yet so new that it is ever changing. From the making of biscuits to the building of battleships, Chemistry is used at every turn. COMMERCIAL The old idea that the high school is a place to prepare for college has passed away and with the passing has come a change in the course of study. It has been necessary to add courses that shall help the large number of students who do not go on to college to prepare themselves to earn a livelihood. It has also been necessary to prepare workers to meet the demand of a rapidly changing industrial world. These two factors have con- tributed to the placing of commercial courses in high schools. There has been very little change in the work of our commercial department this year. The bookkeeping classes have taken up the revised Twentieth Century text book and the new practice sets. Graded Readings by Hunter have been furnished for the beginning shorthand class. In last vear's district commercial contest at Eaton, both our typewriting teams won first place and our shorthand teams second place. This is the third year that a commercial club has been organized in the department. I ',. 1 -1 - ,Lx 'lf A7110 I: 1929 dl' Departments o Instruction---fC0nrinnedj ART I-IE Art department oilers two years' work in a regular Hve-days per-week course. earning two credits a year. At the end of the hrst semester, because of the small demand for advanced Art. this course was combined with Art I. The work of the first quarter consisted of pencil technique, water color sketches of fall flowers and still life and the making of posters for the operetta, and the junior class and American Legion plays. The work of the second quarter consisted of making reed baskets and trays and decorating futuristic vases. The third quarter was devoted to perspective drawing and the theory and practice of pen and ink and water color. The fourth quarter work con- sists of design, wood block and pastel crayon. In addition to their regular work, XVilliam Schuller and Don Hawkins, of the advanced class, made illustrations for the InClianian. MUSIC Music is a mode of self-expression-the subtle language of the finer feelings. It inspires to purposeful activities. It is rated as one of the highest and most effective cul- tural agents. Musical training gives to the normal child decision, promptness, and tact in cooperation. The Music department this year has tried to touch on all phases of musical activities. The Junior High School classes, with an enrollment of one hundred, met twice each week. Their class lesson was divided into group singing of unison and two part songs, ear training and dictation. A thorough study of the twenty-Hve records on the State Music Achievement Contest list was made, and a team of five members selected, who won the County and District Contests, earning their way to the State Contest at Indianapolis, March 30. A High School Music Memory team composed of hve Freshmen also went to the State Contest. HOME ECONOMICS Home Economics is a subject in which we are all vitally interested. As a subject in the high schools, it has three chief aims: one, to give the girl a well rounded conception of the many studies constituting worthy home mernbershipg second, to teach not only the girl who is in school but also the one who must leave school at the end of the ninth grade to live her daily life more wisely and to find hei' place in the working world: and third, to arouse more interest in the advancement of Home Economics. The Home Iiconomics course in the Montpelier High School includes a year of foods and a year of clothing for the seventh and eighth grades, elementary I-Iome Economics offered to the Ireshmen. which includes both foods and clothing workg and one year of advanced work. This year a course in Home Planning and Interior Decorating was given the first semester and one in Advanced DfCSSH13lilDg, the second semester. PI-IYSICAL EDUCATION The term, physical education, is a broad one and aptly applies to the separate activ- ities of the department. It includes instruction in the care of the body, which is now given in a new coui'se required for graduation. This course is known as Health. As a background for the study of hygiene, physiology and anatomy of the human body are reviewed in the light of the latest knowledge obtainable in that field. In gymnastics and sports, not only the mind but the body as well is educated, for to take part in any activ- ity, muscles must actually be trained, not only in small acts such as catching and throw- ing, but in moving the whole body quickly and etliciently.

Sauntering around, they finally found their respective places. Before many days the green wore off and they showed signs of becoming real students. The class was divided into two groups, the Freshmen and SA Freshmen. Of the Freshmen Class, Nellie Marie Crabill was elected president and Russell Crisamore, secretary-treasurer. Mr. J. W. Wilson was the faculty adviser. The other group, having Mrs. Taylor as adviser, elected Violet Peterson president and Thelma Manuals secretary-treasurer. The social events enjoyed that year were: a sledding party, a hamburger fry, and a picnic. Under the direction of Mrs. Taylor, the class successfully presented three one-act plays entitled, just Like a W'oman, Who's the Boss? and Why Lic About It? I ' 'V' 1 vs! --L , L an Q A w Aff ,.x, 'fCi7l'f' lNl lk. 'IAN 1'D 2 ill' Senior CLCISS HiSIOTy---fContinuedf INCE twelve of the class did not return in the Sophomore year, a sample wagon was large enough to carry the rest. Mr. Brown was our faculty adviser. At the first class meeting, Madge Noller was elected president, joe Murray, vice-president: Harry Cochran, secretary-treasurer, Glen Schwarzkopf and Clara Gaskill, class advisers. The first event was the Sophomore Carnival, which was very successful. The king' and queen of '26 and '27, Paul Branstrom and Virginia Ray, were elected here. That year we enjoyed a sledding party at Bonham's Hill, and .1 class party held at the school building. Virginia Ray and Berneiee Hardacre represented the Caesar class at Wabash. Horse-drawn vehicles being obsolete, the Junior class of 1928 arrived at school in a fine new school truck. They were glad to see their old class-mate of the Freshman year, Barrington Martz, with them again, and were equally sorry to find out that some of their other class-mates were not in the truck. The following ofiicers were elected: Barrington Martz, president: Arthur Needler, secretary-treasurerg Floyd Morrical and Hoyland Mason, class advisers. Mr. Buroker and Miss Nelson were our faculty advisers. The first event of the year was the junior class play, Adam and Eva under the direc- tion of Miss Nelson. james Poulson and Violet Peterson had the leading parts. The proceeds of the play were used to finance the Junior-Senior reception. The juniors worked diligently on The Crier, the school paper, and tried to make it a success. Virginia Ray represented the Virgil class in the Latin Contest at Marion. On the morning of September 3, 1928, the sound of a motor was heard, and everyone was greatly surprised to see a mammoth airship landing on the school yard. Fifty-two Seniors climbed out to begin their last year at M. H. S. The Seniors elected: as their class president, Violet Petersong secretary-treasurer, Weir Swaimg class advisers, Martha Bebout and Gerald Hiser. The main events of the class were the Senior Class play entitled The Return of Hi jinks, and the publishing of the lndianian. The class was well represented in the Dramatic, the Commercial, and the Home Economics Clubs. Several of our mem- bers went out for basket-ball, five being represented on the first team. The last game of the season was played between the Senior team and the prospective team for next year. This was a benefit game for the family of Lewis Sark. Mr. Sark, who was killed in an automobile accident, was one of the most faithful basket-ball fans. The Baccalaureate Service was held Sunday evening, May nineteenth, in the High School Auditorium. The sermon was delivered by Rev. Salyer. The Commencement Exercises were held Thursday evening, May twenty-third. Music was furnished by the Montani Orchestra. Albert E. Stump was the speaker of the evening, his subject being. The Psychology of Happiness. ... I 4. ......i . - -......... - . i ' .

Under her leadership, the 1928 Indianian was given first prize in competition with all annuals of Indiana high schools having an enrollment of three hundred. She organized the Ra Von Dramatic Club, directing its plays. She was also in charge of all the plays put on by the Senior classes. Miss George looked to this worli with an artistic sense and energy and was content with nothing less than the best possible on the part of her stu- dent-actors. Miss George, now Mrs. Morris Brid- well of Charlotte, North Carolina, was a teacher with abounding energy, a trained mind, a pleasing personality, a friendly disposition, and high ideals. , ., -'-- Montpelier schools are to be congrat- ulated ini having for a superintendent Mr. Kelley, to whom their success must be attributed. Few men have the privi- lege of seeing a school system start with a poorly equipped building and, by their vision and aid, grow to third in the state in buildings and equipment. Members of the Senior Class are for- tunate in having for one of their advisers Z1 man of knowledge and experience, un- derstanding and a desire to help. Not only in local school life has Mr. Kelley been prominent. His ability as an execu- tive has won him G1 place among leading school men all over the state. ,, --' ,K ,-,. ,-, - --.v ,wi V A Q 1 . , . it ' - sh' -.c a V , 5, ,- 'D P f-v-..-.--., - . , 5 lx 'QC' 7110 lN1lW?IQXN'f.Xj'X NJ' 1,,,,,-g R - fi, --V 1.

The leaders elected by the class were Garl Walker, president, Thomas McGeath, vice-presidentg Ruth Trant, secretary treasurerg June Meyer and Max Peterson, class advisers. The publishing of an edition of The Crier, with Geraldine Powell as editor, and the presenting of a benefit show at the Palace Theatre to finance our picture in the Annual, were the greatest achievements of that year. In September, 1926, a group of well meaning, but very green Ereshies unfurled the banner labeled 1950. As the result of a few additions to our class, we had forty-six members. Our class otlicers included: Max Peterson, president, Garl Walker, vice- presidentg Crystal Cale, secretary-treasurer, Forest Drennen, and William Schuller, class advisers. The social functions of the year included a Valentine party and a sledding partyg also the Sophomores allowed us to conduct a fish pond at the annual carnival. We were pleased with the Freshman edition of The Crierf' which we published, with June Meyer as editor. Mrs. Taylor was our faculty adviser. In 1927 we re-united as Sophomores. Our class otlicers were: William Schuller, president: Garl W'alker, vice-president: Earnest Garrett. secretary-treasurer, June Meyer and NVilliam W'harton, class advisers. Mr. Brown and Miss Morton were our faculty advisers. The principal function of this year was the selling of magazine subscriptions, which netted us twenty dollars. In 1928 we again joined forces to assume the duties of Juniors. We elected the fol- lowing oflicersz William Schuller, president, Crystal Cale, vice-president, Earnest Gar- rett, secretary-treasurer: Lillian Hurlbert and William Salyer, class advisers. Max Peterson was elected into the newly organized Student Affairs Committee. Events of interest in this year were the selecting of our class rings, which will always serve as a reminder of our high school days, and the editing of the school paper, The Crierf' On January 25, we presented Oh Kay, a clever comedy full of mystery and thrills. May Parnell was very clever in the role of Gram, William Salyer as her husband, played the part of Gramp. Mrs. Whitman, played by Lillian Hurlbert, was Gram's daughter, and Kenneth Shinn, as Captain Xwhitman, was her husband. Their daughter, Edith, an authoress, was played by Lucille Fox. and their son, Arthur, who thought he was quite .1 man, by Garl Walker. June Meyer took the part of Kay Millis, the girl detective, who solved all of the tangled threads of mystery. Wfilliam Wharton, Ruth Trant, and XVilliam Schuller were fake crooks, and Max Peterson came in as the real Black Terror. We considered the play a success in more than one way. The junior-Senior reception will come as the climax of our successful year. We feel that our responsibilities as juniors will make us better prepared to face the duties of Seniors. '-S , x A -'LL .,.

As this was our first year, we were not very well represented in the activities of the school. We paid for our picture in the annual by donation. In the eighth grade. we elected the class oflicers at the first meeting as follows: Careen Smith, presidentg Rheba Coleman, vice-presidentg Clifford Bedwell, secretary- treasurer, and Robert jackson and Jennie Pugh, class advisers. A class party was held at the school in March. The Sophomore class at their carnival gave us a booth and, in this way, we made the money for our picture in the annual. After we had taken the eighth grade examinations we felt as if we were ready for high school. ln 1927 we entered our Freshman year with fifty-four members. Miss Morehouse and Mrs. Taylor were the advisers of the class. Nve were soon organized, with Jennie Pugh as president: Gerald Shannon, vice-president: Clifford Bedwell, secretary-treasurer, and Martha Murphy and Lucian Beal, class advisers. ln our Freshman year we had charge of a convocation, at which we presented a one act play entitled What Happened at the Brent's. Mrs. Taylor directed the play and it proved very successful. As Sophomore class we have thirty-three members. This year we organized with Robert jackson, presidentg Drury Scott, vice-presidentg -lennie Pugh, secretary-treasurer, and Kenneth Speece and Margaret Davis, class advisers. Mr. Brown is faculty adviser. .lust before Miss George resigned. we presented her with a sugar bowl and cream pitcher as a wedding gift. Our class is fairly well represented in basket-ball and We hope more good material can be found in the class. We are represented in many activitiesg some of our number are members of the Booster Clubg some of the Commercial Clubg some of the Dramatic Club, and some are representatives in the Student Council. Many members of the class took part in Bits O'Blarney, the operetta given by the boys' and girls' glee clubs. We held a class party at the school building. Friday evening, March 15. There were twenty-four p1'esent including Mr. and Mrs..Brown and Miss Albertson. Poison Dish Rag and Forfeits were the games we enjoyed. Paying some of the forfeits proved quite entertaining. Hamburger sandwiches, fruit salad, and cocoa were served. Robert Jackson proved to be Ll very capable dishwasher. Everyone present had a good time. W'e feel that this year has been a successful one and we hope that our Junior and Senior years will be just as successful. tk F X Inv- ' P' -v - fi i , J ' .,' Ss X 1 pin- ff 'V , ' l1!VA'li Q 'lf,xl, url, Sophomore Cltizss 5 .. . . 1 lwrst row. left to right: xl.lI'g.ll'CI Miller, liuthene XY'i-ight.

He learns that chlorine is green, heavy, and valuable for bleach- ing, as well as useful in warfare. He learns to produce this dangerous gas with safety and to observe its bleach- ing power. Thus hs LABOR becomes .1 pleasant. instructive task. FOOD LABORATORY The basis of the food phase of home economics is the health of the school girls. This room is used for the plan- ning and cooking of well-balanced meals. Classes study food preservation and then put their knowledge into practice by canning some of the foods which they will use later in the year. This room is also used for a cafeteria, when lunches are served. GYM FLOOR The gymnasium is to the high school pupils what the playground is to the pupils of the lower grades. Nearly every hour of the day, one of the classes is having its exercises Recently some mats were bought for the gymnasium, which makes it pos- sible for the students to do more ex- ercises in their classes.

TRAINING Industrial Arts has come to occupy an increasingly greater place in the curriculum because of its practical value in everyday' life. Many dilferent trades come in the Industrial Arts line. only a few of which are taught here.

H. S. Crier. Each class in turn is doing its' best to- uphold and improve the standards set by the first paper. The paper was created to arouse and promote literary interest, furnish journalistic experience, and increase school spirit. The Crier is published weekly by the Junior Class this year, with the assistance of Miss Nelson as literary adviser and Mr. Buroker as business adviser. Editorials From the Crier SUCCESS There are many questions asked why so many uneducated, stolid men have success in business, while others, college graduates with brilliant minds, often fail. One reason for this is that a college graduate, as a rule, does not concentrate on any one thing long enough to have success. He may try many things before he iinds any position that he takes any great interest in. It is the amount of interest that one puts in any thing which determines success or failure. In a line, knowledge gained from books popularly labels a man as educated, while lack of book knowledge labels him as uneducated and uncultured. The mechanic, whose only school has been experience, may rise to the head of a vast business and change the complexion of .1 whole industry, and yet we will hesitate to credit him with education. We will grant that he is Hshrewdn with an instinct for business, and perhaps' lucky but if asked to name a brilliant man, our thoughts will turn from him to scientists and authors of weighty books. This we should not always do, for there are many people who have made a brilliant success at business, whom we sometimes think of as only of inci- dental importance. HEALTH Every community is made up of many kinds of citizens. The health of a commu- nity is the health of its members, and the group whose health is the poorest is the weakest link in the chain of health. Civic pride and wealth are generally shown by great build- ings and paved streets. When one is making .1 tour of the city with distinguished vis- itors, very rarely are the poorer parts exhibited, but these poor districts are the frailest link in the health chain. The main point in community health is, first of all, attention to individual health, although diseases sometimes occur in spite of the fact that each individual attends to his own health. The prevention of most diseases usually involves at least two things: first, the building up of resistance against them, and second, the prevention of contact be- tween sick and well people. The resistance is built up by plenty of sunshine, fresh air, rest, sleep, exercise, and a well-balanced diet. Many people do not realize that health is one's most valuable possession. Without it one cannot hold or enjoy anything else that falls to his lot or that one wins in the battle of life. The health of every individual depends in a large measure, on the effort which one exerts toward getting and keeping it. ln addition, the health of your commu- nity is individual well being, and individual health is similarly related to the health Con- ditions of the public. i VII!!! i I I i Crier First row. left to right: XY'illi.un S.1iycr, liuxincw xi.lI'l.lgCl'1 Iiiciilq Fox, IidiIGI'-ill-cVii1iUi'iI Iinrcst Urunncn Assistant Editor: lfarncst Qi.1rrt'tt. :Xssismnt litisincw M.1i1.1gcr.

HE iirst meeting of the Student Council this year was devoted to electing the following orlicers: Martha lf. Behout, president: Gerald B. Hiser, secretary. The Council worked out a scheme to eliminate cheating. Several eases were tried. with the members of this body as judges. It also attempted to prevent the defacing of school property. Many recommendations were made to the faculty to check this prac- tice, and the results were somewhat successful. Locker inspections were held every two weeks throughout the year, and we suc- ceeded in persuading the students to lieep their property in a neater condition. Clean- up weelt was held during the first week in April, when the entire building was inspected and reports were made as to the condition of the different rooms. The purpose of this inspection was to instigate cleanliness in the entire school. Each year the true importance of the Student Council comes to be regarded more by the students. This organization has passed the experimental stage, and has taken its place among the important organizations of the school.

The club was reorganized at the beginning of the year with the election of the following olhcers: president, Williglin Sinclair: vice-president, Garl Walker: secretary- trcasurer. Kathryn Redmondg chairman of the program committee, Violet Peterson. The first event of the year was a party held November 22, at the High School Building. The program consisted of a talk on dramatics by John Kerlin, of Muncie Normal, a former president of the club, readings by Mary Green and Christine Dalton, of Muncie Normal, and a skit by john Kerlin, by request. Wlicim the junior Class presented Ol Kay, a make-up team composed of Violet Peterson, Martha Bebout. Virginia Ray, and Helen Irene Benn assisted Miss Albertson in making-up the cast. . As the club had on hand, from last year. funds more than suthcient for its needs, and, as it was forced to change sponsors after the resignation of Miss George, it was decided not to attempt an evening program of plays. Instead, the club sponsored the sale of ticltets for the playlet, The Heart of Lincoln. which was written and presented by judge Bull. This netted them twenty-six dollars and fifty cents. On liebruary 18, for convocation, the club presented the one act play, An Inter- rupted Proposalf' The characters were: Mr. Stone, W'illiam Sinclairg Mrs. Stone, Helen Irene Benn: Helen, their daughter, Rose Plavonikg Mr. Tracy, her suitor, Howard Greene: Mrs. Ramsey, Kathryn Redmond, Steve Howard, her nephew, Barrington Martzg and Betty, the maid, Martha Dorsey.

Margaret Salyer and William Salyerg junior High, joan Arricli, Mary Kelsay, Wilbei't Morrical. Helen McColly, Mary Jane Davis, Albert Dickason and john Sawyer. From these Mae Parnell and Albert Dickason were selected for the county contest. The annual Dramatic Club breakfast to be given the morning following Co-m- mencement will be the closing event of a very successful year. Commercial Club At the beginning of the school year the name of Triple CH was chosen as the name of the club.

The play was interlarded with mystery and thrills and provided a full evening of fun. Those in the play presented their parts in a very capable manner. Miss Nelson made a very commendable coach. Gram Pembroke, May Parnell, .1 fussy old lady, is suddenly left seven thousand dollars worth of iewels. The Black Terror, Max Peterson, is a daring robber, and is working in the neighborhood. He lands out that the jewels are in Gram's possession. Gramp Pembroke, Williaiii Salyer, is too old for any good, according to his family, so he engages ,lim Hayes, Willi.1n1 Schuller, to play the part of the Black Terror. He then plans to capture him, and prove to his family that he is still spry. Edith Whitman, Lucille Fox, writes stories, and to land out how people act when they are scared, she has a girl friend, Alice Borden, Ruth Trant, come to the house as the Black ,Terror. Arthur XVhitman, Garl Wfalker, is Edith's brother. The family still regard him as ll kid,', much to his disgust. To prove that he has grown up, he asks Fred Alden, Williana W'harton, to come to his home dressed as the Black Terror, and allow him to capture him. Wheii Gram becomes worried about the jewels, her daughter, Evelyn Whitnian, Lillian Hurlbert, mother of Edith and Arthur, calls the famous detective, Kay Millis, june Meyer. The real and fake crooks meet at the Wlaitman home the same evening. In the midst of the excitement, George Wfhitman, Kenneth Shinn, who is Evelyn's husband, returns home from a voyage. In the end Kay Millis succeeds in unraveling the tangled threads of mystery. She and Arthur have become quite well acquainted, and the last act ends appropriately between the two. l ihggl ffjf: 'X!I N' .X , 1 Jfbpzllt I . -' 1 . , I .- , x XX I ..g-5-Y -..- - Z ' X n 'l as 1 3 , 5 io . The Patsy QQ HE PATSY, .1 clever comedy by Barry Conners, was presented by last year's graduating class on May fourth. The class w.1s fortunate to have had this play, as it had been released for amateur production only .1 short time before that date. The story concerns Patricia Harrington, Catherine Cloud, Ll girl who runs second to her older sister, Olive lfitch. She is the Patsy, who is blamed whenever anything goes wrong, and is forced to remain in the background in order th.1t her sister may be presented to advantage. Her father, Edgar Huggins, .1 traveling man. is on her side, and finally declares his independence by putting his wife, Kathern Krauss, in her proper place. This brings about P.1tricia's ultimate triumph and, needless to s.1y, affords her happiness as the bride of the m.1n she loves, Tony Anderson, Charles Bucl-amaster. Patricia, to increase her charm has sent for some books which guarantee their readers to be the life of the party, and the so-called wise .1nd witty sayings which she has gleaned from these books and which she quotes freely on all occasions, produce some of the best comedy lines in tl1e modern dram.1. Other members of the east were Dale Smith, Aileen Risk, Lauman Baker, and Glenn XY'eayer. r , i If L ry: sf' - ' . - t .. -..e -, Iarst Home Economies Climb row, left to right: The-,la Swoveland.

FLOYD Moiuucixt, r'M0l'7'il'tlll' He was the highest scoring man on the team this year and very seldom failed to score less than ten points during a game, usually more.

He has done what no other man could do. He has won the confidence and love of every man on the team and sent him on the floor to make basket-ball history. Dad has proved him- self to be the pattern of ideal sportsmanship and all that it means to M. H. S. Coach Wilson has always taken defeat the same as victory, without a word. The Team HE team this year has made the best record of any team M. H. S. has ever produced. winning fifteen games out of their schedule of twenty. Their victories were over such teams as Bluffton, Portland, Fairmount, Silent Hoosiers of Indianapolis, and Berne. The total points amassed were 663 to their opponents' 552.

In the first game, held on Monday, the eighth grade defeated the seventh, 15 to 9, to win the .Iunor High championship. On Tuetd'y the Seniors easily defeated the Frefhmen in a one sided affair, 30 to 7. Friday the final game was played before the whole school and the Seniors won only after a hard tussle, 22 to 14. All of these games were interesting and were hard-fought, even though the scores were a little one-sided. The inter-clais tournament is a good chance to find out the prospects for the following year and we sure have them. Even though most of the team graduates this year, there is plenty of material coming on that will even better the record of this year. GIRLS' In the opening round of the girls' inter-class tournament, the juniors defeated the Freshmen in a close contest, 15 to 7, and the Seniors defeated the Sophomores, 22 to 18. in an overtime game. In the Finals the juniors defeated the Seniors in a hard fought battle, S to 7. Although there was some dispute about the score, the otlicials finaily decided that the Juniors were the victors. Play Day N Saturday morning, January 26. Lucille Fox, Junior, Charlotte Bixler, Caroline Henderson, Violet Peterson, Nellie Marie Ci-abill, and Helen Irene Benn, Seniors, Miss Mary Rice, art instructor, and Miss Lillie Heinig, physical culture director, boarded the 7:29 car for Muncie, where they attended the Play Day exercises at the Ball Teacher's College. Wlhen the Montpelier group reached the Ball gymnasium, where the program was to be given, they found the building almost deserted, with the excep- tion of the hostesses and the check room employees. In a short time, however, repre- sentatives from the surrounding schools began to arrive on the scene, and the registration started at once. The visitors were divided into groups or teams with a college physical education student as leader. The morning was spent in supervised play. Lunch was served in the school cafeteria, after which the visitors were conducted in groups on an observation tour through the various buildings on the campus. In the afternoon, the physical culture classes of the college presented a very interesting program. At 3:36 o'clock, the visitors assembled in the girls' gymnasium on the second floor, where lunch was served. A short social period followed, after which they returned to their respective homes. ...N fr f,f -Q Y -A T na V '1 3, I VI II tw !w1txx1'1-w III i d S g, I I I I ll I I I A .
