T 12) We of Pardeeville High School extend to the peacock our heartfelt sympathy; for are we not, like him, vainly striving to impress the world with a sense of importance? We have veils which subdue our fiercest en- emies. Our husky basketball team is the dread of high schools for miles around. The Seniors are radiating wisdom; the Juniors are vigorously as- serting their rights; the little Sophomores are scrapping; and the irre- presible Freshmen are noisily trying to make themselves heard. We are all, everyone of us, posing as martrys to the noble cause of learning and yet, the world does not realize we are IT. 13] ................'Vl........ THE 1934 WHISPER ADMINISTRATION BOARD OF EDUCATION LAURENCE TUNISON treasurer HARRY W. HASKIN CHARLES W. WARNK.E Clerk Director It gives ns great pleasure to place before the public the portraits of the members of the Board of Education; men who have shown great interest in our school life. We sincerely hope that these manifestations of their in- terests in us will be long continued. We as a student body extend to them our deep appreciation and thanks.

HOARD MEMBERS Charles W. Warnke, Director Laurence Tunison, Treasurer H. W. Haskin, Clerk For further information write to H. C. ZIMMERMAN, Principal of Pardeeville High School A Cordial Welcome is extended to you by Pardeeville lliglt School [25] THE 1934 WHISPER Dramatics The Assembly— In and around it center the life of our school, its joys and victories, its sorrows and defeats. Community programs of many different kinds have been presented to the students and members of the community. Here is where Forensics hold sway in Extemporaneous Reading, Extemporaneous Speaking, Ora- tion and Declamation. We compete with the other schools in the Inter-County Little Seven League. For the last six years we have had students represent our school in the District Contest and Whitewater. [26] THE 1934 WHISPER Jokes Couldn’t Remember the Word An angry word never passed be- tween Pat and Mike who were very good friends. They decided one day to have a fight merely to find out who was the better of the two. The one who got enough first was to say the word “sufficient.” The fight was fast and furious. Pat finally gave up the fight and said “sufficient.” “That’s the word,” said Mike, “I’ve been trying to think of it for an hour.” Feared a Moratorium Professor (in geology): The ge- ologist thinks nothing of a thou- sand years. Student: Great guns! and I lent a geologist five dollars yester- day. A Beginner Shirley: “How are you getting along with your automobile les- son ?” Cecil: “Fine, I learned how to aim the thing today.” Saw No Reason For Worry Little Mary from the city was visiting her uncle. The first even- ing she watched him milk his only cow. The next morning her uncle came in raving that someone had stolen his cow. Mary piped up and said, “Oh, don’t worry, uncle, they can’t go very far, you drained the crank case last night.” Beloved, must I now part from thee? Ah ’twould break me heart! Thou hast been my dearest friend— This is such a dreadful end To be torn with cruel hand. Breaking the last loving band, But at last has dawned the truth - We must part—my wisdom tooth! Pete: “I’d like to buy a pencil.” Clerk: “Hard or soft?” Pete: “Soft. It’s for writing a love letter.” Maurice: “What did Paul Revere say at the end of his ride?” Gene: “What?” Maurice: “Whoa.” Few Scotch poets write free verse. Miss Nelson: “Can you tel! me in what year Columbus discovered America ?” Jessie: “Yes’m.” Miss Nelson: “What vear was it?” Jessie: “You can’t expect me to answer two questions in succession. That question belongs to the next in the class.” Miss Skaife: “Spell ‘ferment’ and give its definition.” Marion :“F-e-r-m-c-n-t, to work.” Miss Skaife: “Now place it in a sentence so that I may be sure you understand the meaning.” Marion: “In summer I would rather play out-of-doors than fer- ment in the schoolhouse.” Mike was trying to explain to Pat the meaning of the word ‘miracle.’ Mike said, “If I fell from the top of an eight story building without being injured, what would that be?” “An accident,” replied Pat. “No,” said Mike. He repeated the story again and the second time asked what that would be. Pat replied, “A coincidence.” “No,” said Mike. Upon telling the story again and asking the question the third time Pat exclaimed, “Begorra, Mike, it would be a habit.” [271 PETERSON’S QUALITY STORE for Groceries, Meats, Fruits, Vegetables and Home Bakery More for Less Pardeeville Wisconsin LOVELL THEATER The best in Talking Pictures Mr. and Mrs. B.
