' our fourth Junior Echo, of the Ontario High School, has at- tempted to set before its readers a bigger and better annual, one of which we may be proud and which our readers will enjoy. We have tried to include in this book the events and happenings of the past school year, some of which are amusing and others interesting, not only to the student body, but also to those who have gone before-us and possibly to others, who may be interested. We wish to thank the faculty for the interest they have shown in this work and also to call attention to the advertisements, without which the publishing of this annual would probably have been impossible. ::po4:::::::oc:::: :1oooc:::oooq:::p4:::::vo4:: :pc:::aoc:::::::::poo4::::poc::: THE JUNIOR ECHO Page Three ,MQW Board of Education 1924-'25 Dr. F.

N the spring of l924, all the boys were determined to Il Q I win the championship of the northern section of the Il 2 Wayne County Baseball League, as they had the previous ll year, and if they were successful they would strive to win ll the championship of the whole county. Rain caused many games ll to be postponed, but the ball squad never lost courage. ll They played the following games: 1: O.H.S Webster 8, at Ontario. fl O.H.S. Wolcott 8, at Wolcott. fl O.H.S Wolcott 2, at Ontario. 12 O.H.S Williamson l, at Williamson C7 innings., ll O.H.S. Williamson 3, at Ontario C7 innings., 11 O.H.S. Sodus 3 at Ontario. II O.H.S Marion 6, at Ontario. II O.H.S. Sodus l, at Sodus. u U Because of the above record the team qualified to represent U the Northern section of the Wayne County Baseball League in the :I championship games. The first championship game was played 1: with Newark at Sodus. The score was: Newark 2: O. H. S. ll. S Having won that game it was necessary to play North Rose for the IL championship of the county. This game was played at Newark, the 12 score being: North Rose 4: O. H. S. l4. This gave the team the ll championship of the Wayne County Baseball League. I E The team was composed of A. Middleton, captaing S. Pratt. manager, Whitbourne, C. Cone, H. Keely, H. Hogeboom, E Furber, G. Barrett, G. Raup, R. Casey and C. Hopkins. ll U During the winter it was decided to have a boys' basketball U team, so with very little practice, on account of having no place to ll play, they began the season. There having been no basketball team for two years. our boys did not have the practice of previous 1: years, but hope to have more success next year. ll The boys had just begun playing when the girls were given permission to have a team. 2 b..---....--..-..-------- ooo0evoooocpgaoooaooosoooooooooo oo--ogooooooooooooooooopp-QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ Q-oooooooooooo:::::::::::1:::::::::::::::1:::::a4:::1::pa::9c:: THE JUNIOR ECHO Pag-eTwe1ve ghey met with great success as you will see from the following recor : O.H.S.

Physical Ability Test ln the spring of each year the seventh, eighth grades and the High School Department have what is called the State Wide Phy- sical Ability Test. For the girls this test is the basketball throw, the run and catch, and the dash. For the boys it is the dash, chinning and standing broad jump. If a student gets 50 per cent in each of these events he is entitled to a bronze badge. For a silver badge 75 per cent is required, and for a gold badge l00 per cent is required in all the tests. Last year no one won a gold badge but there were six persons who won silver badges. Doris Bel and Arrethea Verdine were the girls, and Ralph Casey, Arthur Alborn, Carl Hopkins and Ray- mond Middleton were the boys who won silver badges. There were twenty-eight girls and eleven boys who won bronze badges. Raymond Milldeton and Melville Sheahen earned a silver ring with a bronze emblem for making an average of 50 per cent for three years. The Junior Division of Boys had an average of 73.7 per cent. This was the third highest average in a school of this size in New York State, and as a reward the school received a certificate. This year nearly all the students have raised their averages. In the seventh and eighth grades all the girls but one fwho was absentj, will receive a badge. Q N W I 1 GIRLS' BASKET BALL TEAM THE JUNIOR ECHO Page Fifteen Dramatics Marjorie Hallauer, '26 OR the last few years it has been the custom for each of the Junior and Senior classes, to give a play. Although in former years these have been successful, this year's plays have excelled those of all other years. The Seniors presented For the Love of Mike, a comedy in three acts, Gretchen Horner taking the part of Miss Hatty, a gossip- ing old maid, Clara Lebbert, as Aunt Emma, with the task of edu- cating her two dead brother's children, Hermia Hallauer, as Grace Howard, daughter of the late judge Howardg Mabel Ruffel as Margaret Howard, the cause of all the complications: Clifton Esley, as Mike Osborne, the chauffeur for the people next door, Esther Dickinson as Katie, the maid, who thinks Mike's visits are for her. The players were well adapted to their parts and entered into the spirit of the play so well that it was greatly appreciated by a . The Juniors presented Sunshine, a comedy with music, which gave its audience a good laugh all the time. james Whitbourne took the part of Buddy Brady, a baseball player, whose witty speeches and baseball language gave the fans a treat. Elizabeth Waterman, as Mary Ellis, alias Sunshine, was Buddy Brady's nurse. Clarence Becker, as Jim Anthony, had plenty of money and was engaged. Marjorie Hallauer, as Sylvia Deane, known as Jim Anthony's Fi-nan-cie. Hubert Keely as Mr. Juba K. Butternip, drank up all his tonic, which made him see stars and caused his ears to ring. John Furber, as Major Kelli- cott, the villian, greatly disturbs Sunshine and steals Miss Deane's ring. Ernestine Fuller, as Nurse Greggory, was Mr. Butternip's nurse. Doris Thompson, as Mrs. McCann, was having her ninth operation. Arline Risley, as Maudelia, Mrs. McCann's daughter, had a great love for fun. Frances Smith, as Mrs. Whipple, a ner- vous old lady, lost her parrot, and didn't know where she could find another. Beatrice Palmer, as Lessie Milford, a mental case, was always on the lookout for a clue. We wish to mention, also the work of the orchestra, whose fine music added greatly to the effect of the play. We leave our junior year with the hope that in the years to come other classes will take up this good work. Oooq THE JUNIOR ECHO PageSixteen President's Address Hermia Hallauer, '25 HIS is one of the memorable occasions when books are laid aside, ages forgotten, and we are no longer teachers and pupils, but worshipers together at the shrine of joy --.. and good fellowship. Happiness smiles upon us tonight as upon favored children. The class of l925 is about to enter upon a new epoch in its history. Our school days here have been only a stepping stone in the journey of life wherein great prizes are to be won by the earnest and persevering seeker. Let us earnestly resolve that we will make life a success, that we will prosper in our respective call- ings, that we will assist in making the world nobler and better, and be worthy sons and daughters of Ontario High. Let us not forget our motto, Apres le combat le couronne, which means After the combat, the crown, and may it guide us to the dizzy summits of power and influence, and help us to reach real distinction among our fellow workers in the world. For four long years we have been striving to gain what we have now attained-graduation-with the earnest hope that it will be the foundation of later victory. We still continue with this hope, and with our training, it gives us courage to look forward to a happy success. Let us rejoice that we have had splendid opportunities for equipment and training, physically, mentally, morally. Let us not merely pride ourselves in the fact that we have graduated from an institution well known, for the world cares but little where we re- ceived our diplomas. But the world does care whether we are an orderly, systematic force: whether we are qualified for the great work of the twentieth century, and whether we belong to the leaders or to the dross. . An unclasped, not unbroken band will we be after this com- mencement, which is so near for us. It will bring only separation by time and distance, not in spirit, for our thoughts will often turn backward to the happy days spent within the walls of our school. Underclassmen, as this our last organized meeting, I have only to wish that each one of you will meet early in the success that is sure to be yours too, eventually. Although we take much credit unto ourselves, we also realize that without the aid and assistance of our faculty, we would not be graduating with the same honors that we now possess. To the faculty then, who have always been ready to set aside their work for ours, we give our sincere thanks and best wishes. To the juniors and under classmen who have volunteered to help complete our program this evening, we wish to take the oppor- tunity to thank you most heartily. It is this spirit of unselfishness and co-operation that has enabled us to carry it out successfully. On behalf of the Senior class of i925 I extend you a most cordial welcome, to this our celebration of class day, and hope you will enjoy our bits of enthusiasm. THE JUNIOR ECHO Page Seventeen The Good Ship 1925 Clara M. Lebbert, '25 HE good ship 1925 joined the Heet of the High School in September, l92l, with twenty-seven passengers. With many a trouble arising from our inexperience and many a bantering wind to veer us from our chartered way, we somehow weathered our journey until one day a cry of Land brought us to the realization that we had reached our first stop1 the lsle of Christmas Holidays. Land leave was over all too soon and reluctantly the crew climbed back to bunk on the good ship '25. Once back, however, we made the best of things and our natural cheeriness and good nature grew manifest again. We had Theodore Mepham as president: Mildred Keeley, vice-president: Harland Hogeboom, secretary, and Gretchen Horner, treasurer. We selected as our class colors, blue and gold. Then there came with a hot june breeze the rumors of plank-walking-the final examinations. With a sudden rush every man was at his post, and the ship shot forward toward the enticing land ahead. Twenty-one of the members swam safely ashore to the beach of Summer Vacation from this final plank walking. Our success as Freshmen made thirteen of us smilingly jump back to place in September. We were the second ship in the fleet now and well aware of our dignity, we looked back loftily at a shift- ing, lurching ship that had just been launched behind us. Now and then we Hung its crew a word of cheer, always telling ourselves that our noble craft could never have Houndered as did theirs. We now had Donald Charlick as president, Esther Dickinson, secretary, and Clara Lebbert, treasurer. We kept our same class colors, chose as our motto, Love, labor and laugh, and unani- mously chose Miss Remore as class advisor. As became our new position, we developed an original and surprising attitude-we grew studious. Nothing daunted us and so we sailed rather peaceably along. Reaching our Junior year there was no jumping into place now, but a sedate ranking of the members of the crew when September again brought its putting out time. At last we had reached our proper sphere with only ten members. With but one good true ship ahead of us, our sailing seemed clear. We elected Hermia Hallauer, president: Esther Dickinson, vice-president, and Gretchen Horner, secretary and treasurer. We kept our same class colors, blue and gold, unanimously chose Miss Remore as class advisor again but changed our class motto to Apres le combat, la cour- rone. After all, the shore of Summer Vacation and the warm june sun seemed to welcome. The trip had been strangely hard, withal. ln the Senior year our good ship had to be kept going with the efforts of a much smaller crew. We were the leaders now as 94::oo4:::::oooc ::l::::::0::::::::oo::::::o:::::::::::::::o THE JUNIOR ECHO Page Eighteen we headed the fleet. And we resolved to do it well with Hermia Hallauer as president, and Esther Dickinson as vice-president. Our attitude was, undoubtedly, well chosen, but whether we were startled to Hnd ourselves at the head, we weren't sure, but this we know, we had a harder pull and a closer watch to keep than ever before. The cry of land, as the familiar Christmas Isle drew near, failed to resound from our midst. We had grown to realize that little landings and little respites were all very well but we had the mainland now to head for. We gave the Senior play, For the Love of Mike, which we considered a great success. The mainland was still just beyond the horizon, but we were growing strangely conscious of its existence. And we were not a little alarmed to see it loom up attractively during the early spring days. We had so much to do, the rigging to be overhauled, the ship to be left in order and our mental cargo to be stowed safely away. These were the tense days with long, anxious watches. Almost before our work was done, our Heetmates had drawn abreast of us and were cheering our success, hailing our safe landing until suddenly there burst from our own good ship a lusty yell. N0 more watches, no more plank-walking, no more tests. At last we were at the entrance of the port of the Mainland of Graduation. Another day would bring us safely into port. Already we can discern our folks, our friends, our futures awaiting for us in the midst of festivities. But before we go we want to draw alongside a moment and salute our fellow fleetsmen and our faculty. We wish the fleet every success and fair weather into the port, and we hope the faculty are pleased with our efforts and will be proud to enter on ,their Log, the Good Ship l925. -- rs. - Wi ' - 'EQQ , , ii - T531 E 7.9:-5. -5 Y , 3 :,, - ,Q ICJ tv' :Q-'L' 1 IQN K 9 Ll at if IXKUV 1833: 'H ::o:::::--:::::::::::::::::::::::::r::::::::::b4:::4:::::- THE JUNIOR ECHO Page Nineteen Senior Class Prophecy CELEBRITIES-A DECADE HENCE Clara M.

Not that you weren't always, but now you look like a young Mrs. Rockefeller Only think, it's ten years since we graduated from the good old High School. Those were the days. But tell me what you've been doing since all this water has run under the bridge. Well, Clara, she said in her bright, cheery way, l wish you would come over to the Metropolitan Museum of Art where l am exhibiting some of my paintings. Then she handed me a clipping from the New York Times which read, A remarkable exhibition of Hermia Hallauer's paintings opens here tomorrow. She has decidedly revolutionized American art. Her profiles are portrayed with an absolutely new and striking representation. She could be kept working at the highest pitch all the time so great is the demand for them. This no doubt accounts for the honors she has won. Why this sounds like a novel, l said. Hermia in her unassuming way replied, Oh, l was just lucky l guess. Tell me about yourself Clara. Luck nothing, it wasn't luck that got you ahead in High School and then through Mechanics lnstitute, besides winning scholarships abroad and bringing home honors. lt's talent and l congratulate you. You asked what l have been doing. l have been doing editorial work for the last five years. l came up through all the stages from pressman's assistant. l've edited some bio- graphical material in my day, and now l have what l think is the most interesting work in the world. l'm editing a book on Cele- brities of l935, and believe me, l'm going to get you in there, now that l know you're a noted artist. And Hermia would you believe that in getting together the material for this book l found that every one of our High School class goes in, because every one has done something big? lt's wonderful, isn't it? No wonder l'm so enthusiastic about this job. Upon my word, Clara, l had no idea we'd all turn out so famous-though l always did modestly assert that we were the finest class ever graduated from the old school. What have they all been doing? l'd take a whole day off to hear about them. And it's so remarkable that they're all in your Celebrities book! l then proceeded to give her the following information, which l had gathered for my book: When l was organizing my chapter on women in educational work, the first one l went to see was Es- ther Dickinson who had made a remarkable success as Dean at L...,...o.--.....-------------------..-----...--------..- A-----:rc- '-:l:---1--:l:-:l:-:---- ,-,--- --- --- -- - - -,--:bo4:::r:::3oo4::t:::: THE JUNIOR ECHO Page Twenty Vassar College.

THE JUNIOR ECHO Page Twenty-five Charge to the Juniors O-DAY, we, the class of l925, are leaving Ontario High T School, glad that we have finally reached the goal for which we have been striving for four long years. But ....... now that we have reached it we are reluctant to leave. During these four years spent in high school we have had our grievances, won the friendship of some and the hatred of others. But today we hope that those differences will be forgotten, for the time at least. As the members of the class go out and make their way in this world, each and every one of us will look back upon the days spent in Ontario High as the happiest days in our lives. Juniors, it is my pleasant duty to leave in your care this won- derful key of knowledge which we received from the illustrious class of '24. We have been so successful from following the advice they gave us, as to its use, that we wish you to have its benefits also. We hope that you will make as wise use of it as we have in unlock- ing the storehouse of knowledge, and that you may thereby bring honor to yourselves and to your school. Take this key and notice the colors of former classes that have been helped greatly by using it. Each group of colors signifies that a certain class has been the possessor of this key. We sincerely hope that you may be benefited by it as have the people before you. l wish to compliment you for being so attentive to this address. One does not often find children that are able to listen understand- ingly to such profound instructions. But I suppose you had hope of learning something both wise and helpful from us before we leave. That is a wise idea. Always follow your superiors and you will not go far astray! May you realize, the distinction, the influence and the power of your example. Seek to uphold the dignity of a senior class. Turn your class spirit into channels really helpful to the school. Pledge yourselves to pass this key on with the same high ideals as those which bring it to you. Now l wish you the greatest success in your senior year and after life. THE JUNIOR ECHO Page Twenty-six Junior Response Hubert Keeley Members of the Class of l925:- Today we are here to take part in your last exercises in Ontario High School, an event which will everlastingly linger in your memory. This Key of Knowledge, which you now have consigned to our keeping, is received by us with a realization of its deep significance. To the best of our ability, we shall endeavor to discharge the duties which fall to us as its custodians. The possession of the Key of Knowledge impresses upon our minds its great symbolic meaning. lt opens to us the garden of thought and learning, leaving us free to follow its course or to stand idly by, once we have entered. Success in acquiring knowledge means patient and constant effort. Failure awaits him who fails to strive for the goal. But knowledge is not all we seek in life. True education means a development of all our faculties, or in other words, our character. We may not all be famous but we can all be persons of character. We congratulate you upon your graduation, which is proof that you have done well, and we hope you will succeed as well in the future as you have in the past. ' Now it remains for us to bid farewell to the class of l925. Life is before you. lts results will be success or failure. To suc- ceed you must put forth your best efforts, you must display courage under difficulties and you must observe the laws of God and man. That the class of l925 may attain to this success is our sincere wish. We wish to express our gratitude to you, the class of l925, for keeping this Key of Knowledge for us and we shall use it diligently, hoping to discover that it will open up to us richer stores than you have found, thus enabling us to advise, even more wisely, our successors. We have been friends together, Together broken rules, But bless me, who could help it, Attending public schools? ::::::::1o4:::::l::::1::::::roo4:::::pQooo4:: T H E .I U N l O R E C H 0 Page Twenty-seven Junior Class History Emestine Fuller, '26 F. organized in the fall of 1922 as Freshmen with a W class of thirty-nine. Carolyn Fuller was elected Presi- dent: Frank Hill, Vice-Presidentg James W. Whitbourne, secretaryg Dorothea McCarthy, Treasurer. Miss Ken- nedy was chosen the class advisor. The aim of our class is Through Trials to Triumph, so it became our motto. Blue and gold were chosen as our class colors. Several class functions took place during our Freshman year which were much enjoyed by all. When we met as Sophomores our number became greatly diminished, there being only fifteen members. Late in the year when we organized, Marjorie Hallauer became our Presidentg Elizabeth Waterman our Vice-Presidentg Dorothea McCarty, Secre- tary and Treasurer. Our colors were changed to emerald and gold, and Miss I-ledden was chosen class advisor. During our Sophomore year we held a class party at Marjorie Hallauer's home and also a debate was given in connection with our English work. We met this year with fourteen members, and re-elected the officers of the previous year. Miss Smith was chosen class advisor and has greatly aided us, especially in our Junior play. ln the late fall we bought our class rings, which we liked very well. On l'lallowe'en we joined with the Seniors in giving a social at the school house. Soon after Regents we began work on our class play, Sun- shine, This proved to be a great success through the much appre- ciated help of Mrs. Griflis and her husband, Mr. Griflis. Next year we all hope to meet as Seniors and work harder and better for the good of our school and class. - ......

Since then one of our members, Elizabeth Vanderzelle, has moved away. At the first meeting, Marjorie Williams was elected presi- dent: Bernadette Rogers, secretary: Stephen Sheppard, treasurer, while Miss Miles was unanimously chosen class advisor. We selected for our motto, Rowing, not Drifting, and yellow and white for our class colors. Sixteen of our members attended Shakespeare's As You Like lt, which was enjoyed by all. A large number of Freshmen enjoyed a sleigh-ride party to Williamson, after which we were entertained at the home of Berna- dette Rogers, chaperoned by Miss Miles and Miss Smith. The latter part of this year the general average of each class was taken and the classes seated according to these. ln this way the Freshmen obtained the Sophomore row after the fifth test period. We hope next year to be even more successful.

Dear School that held us in thy friendly arms, Dear kindly walls that heard each joy and woe, Loved teachers, there's a tightening 'round our hearts, For ruthless Father Time says we must go From warmth and shelter here to outer worlds, Where like the knights of old we'll battle strong, fExcept our conquests will be blooclless warsl To vict'ries over sham and shame and wrong. We may not count our gain in worldly goods: We may not hear our names in loud acclaim: But there's a wealth that's richer far than gold, And charity stands higher far than fame. You've taught us such as this outside of books- A message that in heart and soul will lie From thence to make us worthy of your name, Dear School, that name to which we say good-bye. : : ::o4:::l::::l::1:J:::r-c:1 'PHE JUNIOR ECHO Page Thlrty nine 1897 Bertha H.
