ROBERT LONG and THOMPSON MYERS PLYMOUTH, INDIANA, JUNE, 1910 Editorially Speaking. A high selool paper, especially an annual, is a very good thing. It lends character and standing to the school, and shows the home people what their school is doing, who and what the teachers are and wl.o are in the various classes. 7 These annuals are sent to all the important high schools and eol- leges in this and neighboring states. A high school that can support such an annual as this is regarded as a live one, one to be reek- oned with in all important events. This annual is published every year by the graduating class, and means more to them than to anyone else. In after years it will be one of their most cherished possessions, for the memories it will bring. For the first time the Alumni is represented in these pages. XVe are eoneeited enough to pat ourselves on the back for this idea. VVe think it is one of the best features this year, and we think that the others ean 't do better than to follow in our footsteps. This year a prize of 232.00 was offered for the best story written V THE SENIOR ANNUAL by any one member of the high school body. Some of the stories were very good. Esther O'Keefe's was awarded the prize by the judges, Miss Morrisey and Miss Griffin. Two years ago an effort was made to start a monthly paper. It staggered thro the first year, but after that it Was left to die. Some time in the future such an enterprise can be carried thro to a sue- cessful conclusion. This will be something for future classes to Work for, as it keeps up interest in school life.-Ed.

Q Whose wer Q THE SENIOR ANNUAL ALBERTUS M LAUER 10 I VALEDICTORY H EDUCATION A NECESSITY OF THE DAY. A liberal education has in all ages of which we have authentic history, been important in the progress of civilization, but at no time has it been as important a factor in that direction as today. In English history we read of the establishment of such well known and highly esteemed institutions of learning as Oxford and Cambridge many centuries ago, and the influence of these colleges has been felt in the march of progress and advancement through the careers of many illustrious men whose educations were completed at these universitiesg and, out of the many like institutions we have had the preparation for the present great age 'of education and in- tellectual development. Never before in any age of the world has the necessity for higher and better education existed more than it does today-when enterprises of such moment as would have been considered mere fancies of the mind a few centuries ago are met on every hand for fruition. The invention of the manifold and complicated machinery, tending to lessen the manual labor of former days thereby requir- ing more need of skill and brains in their proper employment, and also the increased interest being manifested for professional and political careers-all make men seek a higher degree of culture and knowledge in order to retain a position or to rise into a higher sphere of life in this age of universal activity. In our own country we have many famous universities that have attained the highest rank educationally in science, law, medi- cine, theology, and mechanics. These institutions are turning out thousands of young men and women ready to put on the armor of battle and face the trials and hardships that mark life 's journey. Many will reach the goal with- out once faltering while others less fortunate will fall discomiited by the wayside. But be this as it may there is place in this great world of ours for every boy and girl that is born into it and now the great question arises who among this vast number are the most competent to fill the best places? This is an age of competition in which everyone is seeking as best he can for a position that will most adequately furnish for him the necessities of life. In this strife for advancement it is not the man of brawn but the man of intellect who reaches the highest mark. For every round on the ladder of destiny there is always one just above which men are continually striving to reach. VVho is the man who acquires the highest round on this ladder? It is the man With an education. Not only is this statement true as regards the pecuniary profit derived from an education but also for its broadening efect on the THE SENIOR ANNUAL mind. Without it man could not cope understandingly with the vast social and economic problems of the times. Progress would be at a standstill. Ambition would be stifled. Truth would be crushed. Our land would soon be in a state of turmoil, possibly anarchy. In the words of the poet Shakespeare All the world's a stage and men and women merely players. The person committing the fewest errors will be the best player and will meet with the great- est applause. During the first act which has just been concluded we have received such training as should enable us to better fill the places that are open for us on the great stage of life. We have now arrived at that eminence which for the last four years we have incessantly been striving to attain. I fully realize that our education is not completed except insofar as the prescrib- ed High School course has been mastered and completed, and I also fully realize that with most of us that must suffice, but even so, it is a. foundation that may safely be built upon. From the past it has been demonstrated, even without further college training, that it has brought out many high grade business and professional men whose influence is felt in various communities of this nation. Our own school Hts us for the various needs of life and also for the majority of the best colleges and universities of the landg but even superior to these is its power of training and broadening the mind. In attaining both of these ends its teachers and officers have taken 9. leading part and to them our thanks as a class are gratefully tendered. Fellow Classmates :-We have now arrived at the hour of part- ing. four happy years together are no more, and each must push his boat out into the sea of life which now opens before us, singly take the oars and row for himself to success. In the years to come I hope as opportunity raps at each of your doors that you may grasp it and that good fortune will shine boun- tifully on you. As we now leave our dear Alma Mater, I trust no act of any of us will ever cause her to blush for our conduct but in the years to come she shall have naught but pleasant remembrance of the class of 1910. THE SENIOR ANNUAL Winning a. Name. ' Rev. E. M. North, Class '96-Ellendale, N. D. The world loves a hero. The reverence we pay to the great often comes near to being actual worship. We erect halls of fame. In it we place the statues of certain men whom We choose out of the many millions of other men, and these few we call the great. VVe enshrine their memory in books and stone, and around winter iiresides mothers tell their children at their knees of these great princes among the sons of men. ' What is it in these men that marks them thus? In what are they different from other men? We say unusual qualities make men great. We say it was the quality of persistance in General Grant who said I Will iight it out on this line if it takes all sum- mer, that made him the hero he is among us, it was the quality of far-seeing statesmanship that made Washington and Jefferson great, it was the quality of imagination and skill in recognizing dramatic crises that made Shakespeare the giant that he is in the literary world, it is the quality of unflinching courage that makes Roosevelt such a figure in our national life. In this We speak truly, in a measure, but there is something essential beneath all these things, without which they would be impotent, and it is this secret of greatness that we shall seek in this article. lf simply to possess at peculiar characteristic makes a man great, then many a Roosevelt walks the streets of Plymouth, if the possession of an imagination makes a Shakespeare, then there are many Shakespeares among us, if the gift of some unusual distinctive qualities makes a Washington, a Lincoln or a iWebster, then touch your hat to many a man, yes, to- every man you pass on the street, for every man has some peculiar quality or set of qualities that distinguishes him, and makes him diferent from all others of his kind. In addition to the possession of such qualities there is an element Which is not only essential to fame but is in fact the very key to it. Men endowed with these unusual characteristics can never become great till they put these endowments to work in the service of their fellow-men. Whoever heard of a monument being raised to a man who never did anything for the race? That a man may be great in this World he must be a servant of men. The Great Teacher put it in this fine epigram- 'tVVhosoever would be first among you let him serve. Consider for a moment the great galaxy of Revolutionary heroes, NVashington and Lee, Marion and Greene in the army, Jefferson, Hamilton, Franklin and Marshall in the affairs of state, Patrick Ilenry, John Knox, Samuel Adams, James Otis, silver-tongued champions of the rights of men in the hot years of public debate before the war. Why are these names enshrined in the sacred fanes of every American 's heart? It is because they did something for their country, they became our servants, and served mightily in a cause that needed all they gave. Greatness is not so much a gift as an acquisition. It is a com- modity which can be obtained for a price. Every man who acquires it pays that price. That price is labor. Greatness costs. It is not discovered like a gold mine in the Sierras. It is wrought, a golden chain in which the links are the years turned by the laboring hand of a lone man, linked together in the firm weld of fidelity to his THE SENIOR ANNUAL life-purpose-a product of toil, forged under the stress and strain of work. To the lazy man a great name never comes. There is no good thing for him in earth or heaven. Nature whips him and stings him all his life through. But the commonest man who really aspires to serve his fellowmen, the man Who possesses only the simplest qual- ities, far from brilliant in any element of his character, can take these common talents and before his life ends do signal service on behalfof the race. The road to success is as common as the road to market, said Horace Greeley, and many attain it who bring no other price but faithful toil. A young man friend of Thomas A. Edison said to him one day Mr, Edison, I Wish I had been given genius like yourself. Genius, -Mr. Edison answered, genius, my young friend, is nine-tenths hard Work. The famous wizard has found the secret of all true greatness-the talisman that opens the treasurehouse of unusual success. It is just plain work. This is what makes the dif- ference between the great inventor and the thousands of other men who like to tinker with electricity. Edison doesn't tinker at it, he works with it. He picks up a stray idea that saunters alongside some one of his experiments, harnasses it up, and drives it like mad till it fetches him up at the portal of some marvelous discovery. The rest of us are too lazy to do that. Edison is called greatg we remain on the lower levels of the common lot. But we could be Edisons if we Would. As a general principle we may lay it down that the human mind is capable of anything, providing we will drive it hard enough. Labor is the coin of the realm in the Kingdom of Greatness. No other coin will pass current, whatever its stamp. Every great man who has given to the world the causes for his greatness, has some- where paid his tribute to the virtues of toil. There is gold for every man if he Will use the iron spade of labor. Napoleon purchased his fame at the price of prodigious labors. The shining jewels in his crown of success-Lodi, Austerlitz, Jena. Rivoli, and Marengo were purchased with the gold of unusual and striking labors. He was an anomoly in Continental Warfare, he be- came the terror of Europe. He was almost omnipresent, he was continually surprising the enemy by appearing suddenly before them in battle array, When, by all the rules of marching he must have been, in their calculations, far away beyond striking distance. He will not undertake the almost impossible task of crossing the Alps to attack us said the Italians. But Napoleon did the impossible thing, crossed the Uimpassable Alps, surprised the enemy, defeated them, and set his brother upon the throne. He was almost constantly in the saddle. In fact he often slept in his saddle except when too much worn to keep his seat, when he would fling himself to the ground beside a common soldier's camp-fire and snatch two or three hours of repose. Then he would arise to inspect the enemy 's lines, not entrusting this to subordinates, lest the enemy change his position in the night and thus interfere with his own plans for to- morrow 's battle. So it came about that all Europe trembled before him. Plenty of people could be found who gave him supernatural powers, for how else, said they, can you explain his rapid move- ments and his unfailing success? So it has been with all the great men of the past. They- have purchased greatness with the coin of 'PHE SENIOR ANNUAL labor in the service of men. Only that man can be great who serves the race. Genius, wealth, social standing, ancestors, heredity-all these things a man may possess and unless he vitalizes them with effort toward a certain aim, he will never hear his name tossed from the lips of an admiring multitude. And unless his labors yield their treasures for the good of man his statue will never rise in the Hall of Fame. , Class History. Ethel Zumbaugh, '10, Our eventful career began in the fall of 1906. September seventh dawned bright and clear, this was to be a great day in the history of the school, for the fates had decreed to send a most brilliant body of prodigies there. After meandering half-dazed through the iirst few days of our existence as Freshmen, we met and organized our class Without the aid of either faculty or Seniors-a most wonderful proceeding. Tom was chosen President and to this day he has been unable to sell, assign or give away this office. We began as most other classes, full of resolutions and high ambitiong therefore a constitution seemed necessary, so a committee was appointed to arrange one. After it was thrashed out and re- written several times it was adopted. Our President was very exact in requiring all measures to be strictly constitutional C 'IJ It would not be wise to relate the vicissitudes of Freshmen life. Our start, as that of other classes, was difficult. We gracefully ac- cepted the oppression of upper-elassmen and though we encountered bump-the-bump paths we were never down-hearted. We submitted with admirable self-control to the indignities heaped upon us from dancing on street corners for the amusement of our superiors to Wearing sleeves of a regulated length to English class. ln fact our success has been due to our cheerful acceptance of all over-whelming antagonism. It was with an immeasurable amount of dignity that we newly graduated Freshmen entered the assembly room as Sophomores. This fall we returned more matured in stature and hardened by the ex- periences of the first year, no longer unworthy beings to be scorned but the most prominent member of the student body. We found a body of new-arrivals who needed our immediate care so we proceeded to help smooth the first weeks for them. Our numerous class-meetings gave us the distinction of having a great number of business-like students in our class, but the ties of union too strong to permit us to attend a class meeting when called by the man at the desk. lt was not long until furious canning began in earnest. Irene, Marie, and Kate all took active part in this diversion. As the year rolled on the class began to display much hidden talent The special honor of occupying the first row in history class was conferred upon Marc, Bert and Cyrel, while ambitious Mac held down the coveted front seat in geometry. VVe had able representation in all enterprises of the sf-hool and THE SENIOR ANNUAL stood out as a Willing body of workers to help in all activities of lhe school. Altogether we feel that our second year was fairly successful and do not conceive how the school could have gotten along without us. For the third time this body of students entered the house ol' knowledge. Though peacefully disposed, we soon showed the Sopho- mores their place- After a few days of un-oliicial hair-cutting at which the boys displayed much talent as barbers, the class arranged itself in battle array, chose the colors you now see before you and stoutly defended our banner. As to how long the defense lasted, we do not furnish information but there was no lack of bravery on the part of the Junior boys-hence enough said. It is said that there is not a year in the whole school course quite so satisfying as the Junior year. We are not so sure of this. But it is doubtful if ever another Junior class has had the absolute success enjoyed by this one, for did we not tightly put down the lid on the whole detective force. Class spirit we had in plenty but the characteristic Senior dig- nity did not enter our ranks for we were determined to be joyful up to the last. And now the Senior! VVe returned after a short vacation know- ing that one more year would end our residence here. With a mix- ture of awe and joy we found ourselves in the chief places looking forward to the pleasures of Seniorhood. Our dignity was real. After some delay the class was organized. Then the campaign began. The next thing that brought the class together was the mo- mentous question of class-pin. After arduous work in which Tom displayed much knowledge of parliamentary law, after selections, re-selections, quarrels and bickenings, a pin was finally chosen. But all is now calm as a summer day, the fair ones have forgiven and forgotten. It is as Seniors that the class has done its best in the matter of class spirit. We can point with pride to the records made in the field, and time does not permit us to tell of the good times had at the parties and social gatherings. Our class is the first to have class- day. Its success is due to the fact that it was instituted by the present Seniors. So the time has come when we must cease to be and, while we cannot pose as an example for future classes, we advise all pros- pective chemistry students to become well informed in the mys- teries of Domestic Science and lvlercie suggests that you never at- tempt to demonstrate the chemical properties of rubber in class. David Lineberry took the leadership in all experiment work and after studying deep into the hidden mysteries of carbon, made the brilliant discovery that a diamond could be purchased for a dollar. However, the girls saved the day proving that better car- bons that diamonds could be manufactured when the art of candy- making is understood, and Davie could do nothing more than bother. While we are not an extraordinary class, our standard of schol- arship has been as high generally as prescribed mathematics and science would permit. We had our successes and our reverses. but we have too much modesty to permit the former and too much pride to speak of the latter. Let it suffice to say that after passing THE SENIOR ANNUAL through the four long years the class emerges triumphant. Al- though we have held our breath at times frightened to ask the out- come of those tests, yet we have always safely crossed the Rubicon. As a slight token of our appreciation for the school we leave to our under-classmen and their successors, a set of books by the most prominent authors of Indiana. We have long been together and learned to know each other well so we can give you some of their most notable characteristics. l First upon the scene appears Erwin Machelg a world of knowledge he has in his brain, Not a true poet, never seen with the girls, he's not like any other swain. Mabel has a very wise headg should any detective force need a spy, We recommend her quite unreservedly diflicult places to supply. Edna Johnson told of the pony-colts and of the cribs and crams as well: That was in history: misfortune followed. Oh! 'tis a story sad to tell! Then comes Bertus elected orator by his classmates friendly all, Wonderous wise he stands among us tho he's not so very tall. Paul, the chief editor, had to quit napping when on the annual he must work. Slugging, however, his famous accomplishment nothing on earth could induce him to shirk. g Frances Marks renowned for talking, noted linquist, too, as well, Often inquisitive,- pardon Frances, this is all we're going to tell. Ferrel's the lady who's slightly serious: to tease her a little is really a shame, Yet we're afraid she'd be much offended if we should carelessly leave out her name. Edwin's the one who we're sure will be heard from: his fame will reach from sea to sea, None can deny that very plainly the signature and stamp of power had he. Perfect men are often talked of, seldom seen as you'll agree, But in Marc perfect perfection is the marvel we all see. Rural Hazel's not a weakling, you remember how she balked, How she from the girl's mass meeting, firmly, bravely, boldly stalked? Quiet Erma, seldom heard from, always studies by the hour, What her future's going to be quite transcends my telling power. Irene the beauty p-e-r-f-e-c-t-l-y adorable, you all know her I'll wager a crown, Delta Tau bracelet, that tells the story for Don too, is of high renown. Sweet Marie the pretty bluffer, forged excuses, and one time Traveled south to see a person whose name you know and I can't make it rhyme. Now the girl who reads the minutes: she's not one who needs a lift, Her asprations quite amaze us Independence Esther's gift. Ask McKesson of ponderous phrases about his suit case on the stair, When he called one girl's story too poetical he hurt her feelings beyond repair. Flossie In chemistry gained notoriety, by the other girls were blamed For guessing a compound they knew not the name of she has ever since been famed. Mac, that most ambitious Senior, famous star in Physics class, Has invented tricks now enough to enable him to pass. Walter takes up his work so lightly, seems as if he thinks it's fun. You'd never know he has a trouble. now those extra tests are done. From the north came sober Lois, she will work and win her way, THE SENIOR ANNUAL Because she always minds her business she is busy all the day. Beulah Whom we all adore comes the next in this long list, She'll be great and famous some day or my guess I've surely missed. Nada, too, we're very fond of, and believe the hushed suggestion That ere many moons have vanished, she'll say Yes to the important question. ' Cyril Foreman, prophet, artist, dramatist of local fame, Has designs in the American which will surely make his name. Lineberry, king of the chemical lab. is truly not so very bad, Tho' he did cry Turn it off when electrical shocks were the fad. Next Miss Fern Gibson, tall and stately, we have seen and you will see That it is a task most easy to guess whose wife she's going to be. Walker with his sprightly grace, and radiant jovial face, In bestowing class gifts here will take a most important place. It seems the jest of heartless fate, that here I needs must mention Kate, Her daily messages to Bob-and early strolls.-a Purdue date! Mercie, the renowned reporter, hastened to the Indian show, Showing her great admiration for the big brave, Oh you Joe! Thompson keeps the finest order with his Parliamentary Law, Under this executive we moved along without a flaw. Bob Long the name Sport does merit, for he always cuts a swell. If he can't ride with the others, the bumpers do him very well. Leia by the class was chosen with our funds to be intrusted, Champion feather-weight she's guarded and has kept a treasury busted, Hannah beams about among us with a smile that's quite informal, As she's going to be a teacher she will hasten straight to normal. At the end of our long list now we mention Hazel Love, She's the girl who makes progression without needing a large shove, To those whose names I here have read, Pray pardon any unkindness said, For the class of 1910, is a jolly good class, And soon to tne great, wide world must pass. So forgive and forget as we take a last view, Allt. bid the old hall a fond adieu. THE SENIOR ANN UAL The Annual Dinner. E. Johnson, P. H. S. '10. It was about a year ago in the middle of May when tl1e young Misses who carry their lunch to school planned a festival. lt was to be held in the Assembly Room and the two large reference tables were to be combined so the waitress would have plenty of room to show her great gift in that line. The teachers were invited and every one reported an excellent time. But alas! the time came when another was to be held, and had it 11ot been for the skillful management of Miss Hannah serious trouble might have resulted.

At last all was arranged and even H- had decided to come because this was a grand affair. All was peace when just twelve in number sat down to their glorious feast. Chicken, sandwiches, cake, cookies, pie, pickles and everything imaginable was to be served. But lo! who was tocarve the chicken which a sunny gay girl brought from her country home? No one dared. Finally Miss Hazel attempted the task which we all know she will not undertake again. The result was the Gay family had chicken Land a bunj for supper. The pretty waitress tripped, spilled a tray of home made cookies, cracked the plate, and broke a date.

It is then they cannot conceive why such a beau- tiful locality is not better known Prom the French, Coeur d'Alene is translated Heart of the Mountains, and, lying as it does in that part of the Inland Empire called The Switzerland of America, it is truly named. The Coeur d'Alene District derives its name from a range of mountains in northern Idaho ,varying in height from 3000 to 7000 feet, and covering the larger part of Shoshone county. Nowhere will one find a more delightful summer climate with the bluest skies imaginable, bright sunny days, and cool nights. Here one will en- joy to the utmost the exhilarating influence of the pure, invigorat- ing niountain air with the smell of the pines and hemlocks on every breeze, and in no locality can be found so many sparkling moun- tain streams Where trout are as plentiful. XVallaco is the commercial center of the district, and from this point, the start over the mountain trail of our story was made. One beautiful morning in early August we climbed astride our cayuses bound for the north fork of the Shadowy St. Jo River about twenty miles distant. There were four in our party, Lee VV. Park- er, a ,most enthusiastic disciple of Isaac Vtialtou, Fred Kelly Jr., com- monly known as Kell, a healthy out-door lad, John Berg of Ger- iu ,ny, a thorough woodsman who had consented to be our guide. and myself, a neophyte, uninitiated to the ways of the wily trout. Uur saddles were securely packed with blankets, provisions, rods and guns, and as we left the city in the early morning, we present- ed the appearance of a pack train bound for unexplored wilds. The sun was just peeping over the tops of the mountains as We rode up the Placer Creek road, and the cool air made every fibre in our heal- thy bodies tingle with the joy of living. About two miles out of town the road passes the dam where the water supply for the city of Vv'allace is impounded, and as I was riding in the lead, I first discovered four ducks in the stream above the dam. John and Kell saw them almost as quickly, for the ducks fiew up the creek a short distance and again settled to the surface of the water. XVe stopped just at the dam and John, Kell THE SENIOR ANNUAL and myself dismounted. They unlimbered their guns preparatory to taking a shot when they could get within range. I held John 's horse as well as my own, whale he cautiously crept ahead to 'lllld a convenient place from which to shoot, and Kell stood just in front of me with his gun in readiness and his bridle rein on his arm. John soon rounded a bend in the road and in a 'ew seconds We heard the boom of his gun, but he was unsuccessful. The ducks flew up and came down the stream directly toward us offering a splendid wing shot. Kell could not resist the temptation to fire, although the horses had shown quite a little nervousness at the first shot, so he took two shots bringing down one bird. The ani- mals could not stand for such a bombardment as this, and they im- mediately decided to make a return trip to town. I hung to the two I was holding until they made me step off a hundred yards or more in much less time than ten flat. It occurred to me that per- haps I could manage one with greeater facility, so I discarded John's horse, and after giving all my attention and energy to my own horse I succeeded in stopping him. The two horses which were now loose, were off down the road on a run, but luckily a wood cutter coming up with a wagon headed them off so that they were soon overtaken. After making slight readjustments we were again on our way. Thinking over the escapade since then, I wonder that some of us were not injured, for Lee and his horse were nearly crowded off the road and down a forty foot bank into the creek, and I risked being thrown against a flume-tender's cabin at one side of the road. The Hrst stage of our trip ended when we were about seven miles out from town. Here the road ends and the trail to the sum- mit of the ridge begins, and from this point it was necessary for us to ride in file. I was in the lead, but had no trouble in getting my cayuse to take the trail, for he lowered his head and went at the task with all his might . For a distance of two and a half miles the trail went up on a 20 or 25 per cent grade. On our left the moun- tain rose at a sharp angle, while on the right it dropped steeply for several hundred feet into a thickly wooded canyon. By 9:30 o'clock we reached the summit and a beautiful pano- rama spread before us. The tired beasts came to a stop seeming to feel that they had earned a rest, and we dismounted to enjoy the scene. Directly in front of us the view was unbroken for perhaps twenty miles, and we could plainly see the snow-capped peaks of mountains in the St. Joe country. The valley from which we had ascended lay spread like a map a thousand feet below. We stopped long enough to rest the horses, and again took up the trail which descended into the valley of the North Fork for which we were bound. This trail was nearly as steep as the one on which we came up, and in going down the mountain, it was con- structed as a switch-back, that is, it led to the east for perhaps a mile, and then abruptly changed its direction to the west, and after making these turns four or five times it brought us to the stream. The trail now followed the creek which plunged on its way over rocks and logs, sometimes throwing spray in our faces as we rode near it. For a distance of three miles the grade fell sharply. We then entered a flat which was heavily wooded with immense THE SENIOR ANNUAL cedars, many of them being more than six feet in diameter and two hundred feet in height. Our dogs found this flat an ideal place in which to nose around through the brush, and it was not long be- fore Grill, Kell's dog, set up a bark which told us he had discovered a pheasant and had treed it. John soon overtook the dogs and re- turned with two pheasants, and the smile on his German face plainly indicated the joy he felt in having bagged his game. The trail wound among these mighty cedars for about four miles, then over a slight rise, below which stood the cabin on a bluff overlooking the stream, Where we made our camp. It being high noon, we hurriedly unsaddled, fed and watered the horses and ate some sandwiches which John had thoughtfully provided in order to save the time of building a tire and preparing a lunch. With- in an hour Lee and myself were knee-deep in the stream after the trout, and Kell and John had started out with their guns and the dogs. We fished down stream for perhaps a mile and succeeded in landing enough of the speckled beauties for our supper. We reach- ed camp before the other fellows arrived, and set to work cutting fresh hemlock boughs for the bunks, and wood for the fire. The cabin, being well supplied with cooking utensils, we had supper well under way when the boys returned with two more birds. I do not remember having relished any meal as I did that supper in the woods. The trout, having that delicious flavor found only in gamey cold water fish, were attacked with zest by all of us, and the duck which had been secured early in the morning, was fried to a turn by John. We agreed that he should have been a Frenchman in order that we could call him Chef. Supper being over, and our pipes lighted, we sat in front, of the cabin while John furnished a ver-y pleasing entertainment in trying to teach his dog to fetch. It was quite amusing to hear him give the sterotyped commands in his rich German brogue while the poor pup fairly quivered with fright, seeming to think more about the punishment he would receive for not obeying, than he did of the command. However, John persevered and judging from the interest he showed in his work, I felt sure the dog would be able to read and write within a few months. We had anticipated seeing a few bears on our trip, and our conversation drifted to this subject be- fore we turned in for the night. Our cabin was visited by wood rats, as is the case with nearly all cabins in the mountains which are used but at part of the year, and during the night they created some little disturbance by climb- ing over the tinware, doing stunts on our table and occasionally running over the bunk where we were trying to sleep. The first night in the woods is indeed a novel experience. Every sound seems to break the silence like a shot and one is easily awakened by these small noises even though he is exhausted from the day's work. Lee was not feeling very well after having spent the after- noon in the ice cold stream, and had a slight fever when he turned in which made him unusually restless, every sound seeming to awak- en him. I had been asleep for perhaps two hours when I heard Lee shout, Who's there? Is that you John? I immediately found myself sitting up in the bunk and looking toward the open door for THE SENIOR ANNUAL a bear, mountain lioln, or even a burglar, I knew not what, when Kell said as he turned over trying to regain his regular sleeping pace, Aw, you're see'in things Parker. I again rolled up in my blanket and went to sleep, but in the morning we all had a good laugh at Lee 's expense. We were up at 5 :3O and by 6 130 had started after the trout and game. Lee and I specialized on fishingg Kell and John on hunting, and although our luck was not so good this morning, we had a splen- did fish dinner. It was our wish to reach home early in the evening, and as the boys wanted to do a little hunting on the way. we decided to make a start immediately after dinner. Our outfit was soon packed and by 1 :00 o'clock we were again on the trail. No game was sighted until we were near the summit, when Kell was struck on the side of the head by a pheasant which had been feeding in the grass on the upper side of the trail. There was a covey of perhaps a dozen birds in the near vicinity, and all of them 'flew over our heads and down the hill. John was ready for them, and quickly dismounting he started down the mountain stopping now and then to fire, and with four shots he bagged as many birds. He soon climbed back to the trail and after putting the game in his bag, led 0E toward home. By 5:00 o'elock we reached the open road where the horses were let out, and within an hour we rode into the city. Thus ended one of the most enjoyable week-end excursions of my life, but it ended with the resolve that at the earliest opportun- ity I would make another trip over mountain trails through the beautiful Cf-eu: d'Alene:. .

B-is a wee bit of a place, but very shady and cool. The square white houses sit complacently back in a sea of green lawn, far removed by the row of high picket fences from the glare of the outside world. Farther down the square was the same corner- store, where I used to invest every available penny for licorice nig- ger babies. Everyone in this village of Friends was glad to see me for my father 's sake, for he had grown to manhood among them. My mother was of the world's people, a somewhat forbidden topic in these regions. The sincerity of these villagers was so genuine, that had a stranger cared to assume any superior airs, they would of necessity have fallen aside like a discarded cloak. My Aunts Prudence and Patience were the nearest of my kin, and I chose their home as my headquarters. It was once an old tavern on the State Road. Here my grandfather kept open house and here my father was born, and his mother died. VVhen but a tiny girl I used to come and stay weeks at a time. The things that I best remembered from these occasions were the quince honey and hot muffins for tea. First, however, I must tell you something of my aunts. Aunt Prudence was a large finely proportioned woman, whose word was law. She was always scolding and Worrying over some minor detail, but remarkably well did she play the masculine part of the house- hold. Oftentimes I have seen her don a pair of rubber boots and seizing the plow-share, show that worthless hired boy Zeke, how to run things. Aunt Patience is as different, well there is about as much diiference as can exist between a delicate damask rose and a purple cabbage. The latter is sometimes very useful, but for my part I prefer roses. Zeke was waiting for me at the station with the buckboard. His freckled, smiling countenance had not changed in all the years since I had last seen him, except that over it time had traced slight furrows, and the freckles if anything, were browner. A dampish drizzle had set in and the old gray nag trotted along with surprising alertness, considering his years, until we were soon at the farm. It was the same place as of other days, with the prim evenly-clipped box-hedges, and flaming rambler over the queer arched door framed by its two tiny panes of leaded glass. Zeke handed me out with the air of a prince in a fairy tale and there stood Aunt Patience at the door to greet me. The first thing that came to my notice was the tatting and shuttle in her hand. Since my earliest remembrance she had been placidly making tatting. THE SENIOR ANNUAL I have a faint recollection, once, in pinafore days of trying to cal- culate how far all the tatting she had ever made would reach. Such a charming picture as she made, standing in that old-fashioned door- way, in her quaint Quaker garb. The hall behind her was furnished in pineapple carved maghony, and the lighted tapers in the brass scones flanking either side of the console, cast such a soft glow down on her, that I thought even my stern great-grandfather hanging above must smile approvingly. Someone called shrilly and I ran to find Aunt Prudence standing in the south entry. Her skirts were pinned closely about her for, there's was no use amessin' up so, just doin' a little scrubbin'. Only once before, when I had pulled all the blossoms off her early strawberries, did I experience such a bear-hug. The hidden motive behind the two clutches, however, was vastly diiferent. At tea I was asked so many questions in such rapid succession that my quince honey and muflins remained almost untasted. The little tea table was very dainty with its polished top, covered with the fringed doilies and china of the Blue Willow pattern, and the bright old faces of my aunts, added the last touch to the whole picture of Warmth and good cheer. Aunt Patience gracefully played the role of hostess as she sat behind the silver teapot. The latter was an exquisite affair all done in chased silver, with the most adorably wrought handle and the letters S. F. engraved on the lid. Why, Aunt Patience, I cried, Hwhat lovely old English en- graving. , Then I told her of my collection of teapots, from the smiling little Mandarin that came with a pound of Orange Pekon, to the rare cloisonne one that Jack had sent from Shanghai. She said this one was very old, but Aunt Prudence with a sweeping glance of contempt for all such truck, dismissed the subject by asking me where I got my cuff-links, fer they looks much like some Zeke's got. Afterwards we sat in the long drawing-room by the great fire- place whose glistening andirons were heaped high with crackling, sputtering logs. Aunt Patience slipped the cover from her gilded harp, and her slender fingers glided over the strings, while I ac- companied her on the yellow-keyed spinet. We sang all the beauti- ful old -melodies ending with Annie Laurie, and the high trills of the Mocking Bird. Even tho her voice sometimes wavered doubt- fully, the mellowing of the years had only lent to it an added charm. Last of all We went upstairs, I to sleep in the guest chamber under the eaves. Here the soft summer rain pattering down on the shingles, soon soothed me to sleep, and to dream of all the people who had ever slept in that massive four-poster. My visit lengthened on thro the lazy summer days, on till the mournful chirp of the katydids and the hoarse croak of the bullfrogs in the marsh, betokened the coming autumn. One evening at sundown, Aunt Prudence sent Aunt Patience and me after the drove of bronze turkeys that had strayed to the west woods. Starting home we crossed the stile and sat down to rest on the way, in the family burying ground. When a child I had often come here, and dug the moss from the letters on the headstone with a pin. One poor little lonesome grave, particularly, had always claimed my sympathy, for tradition THE SENIOR ANNUAL declared it to be that of a white child murdered by the Indians. I had noticed that Aunt Patience was unusually quiet, but presently she spoke. She and Aunt Prudence always use the Friends' speech. Virginia, thee hast admired my silver teapot so much that I shall give it to thee. But first I must tell thee something of its his- tory. Years ago, I was young and filled with life like thee. Sister Prudence was much concerned about my spiritual welfare, but my father granted my every whim. I had long harbored a desire to at- tend a young ladies' finishing school in the South. At this idea the neighbors looked askance, for to them the very thought was start- ling. But father was on my side, with the result that I soon started to Virginia, with a polonaised dress of grandmother 's silk, a bewitch- ing white crepe bonnet, adorned with rosebuds, and a new haircloth trunk. . Those were pleasant days, here she smiled reminiscently, but were to be soon overshadowed by the crisis of '62. Life was filled to the brim then of merriment, for there were dances and gay- ities of all descriptions,--and broken hearts, too, perhaps. On Sab- bath When we attended church, there was a young man, very hand- some and tall who sat in the judges' pew. His sister attended school with me. They lived on a nearby plantation and he certainly was a favorite with the girls. Their amazement was great to see when they knew his preference Was for the prim little Quaker as he chose to call me, and here the color came into her faded cheeks like that of a young girl. Before long however, we had dreadful tidings of war and Rob enlisted. I shall never forget the evening he told me that he must go to his regiment. We were walking down the curved drive edged with lilaes, and even now, the fragrance of lilacs when bursting into bloom makes me a trifle faint. He told me the story of his family motto, Servabo Fidem, or I keep the faith. How all the ances- tral knights of the olden times had fought even giving their lives to preserve it and now, how he must keep it ever before him, so as to keep faith with all the things that were worth while. The motto was engraved on some of the silver plate, and that is what the initials S. F. stand for on the tea-pot. School was dismissed in a few weeks and l accepted the invi- tation of Rob's sister and mother to stay at their plantation until it would be safe to go North. After he had gone a silent foreshadow- ing seemed to overhang the whole place. But there was much to do and little to do with, so our thoughts were directed toward work, and not lost in idle mourning. Ere long the humming whirr of the spinning Wheel and click- clack of carders long silent in some dusty garret, were heard upon entering all the neighboring homes. I so well remember one inci- dent, half pathetic, half humorous. Upon hearing Miss Margaret fRob's motherj complain of the poverty of wartime, faithful old Uncle Eben followed by the few remaining slaves, appeared one morning in the door of the loom-room, and offered his dusky tresses to be spun for the use of the cause. We lived through the next year by careful management and scrimping, for every cent that could be hoarded, must be deposited in the silver tea-pot that set over the great fireplace in the dining hall. This money was to go to the aid of the Confederate soldiers. THE SENIOR ANNUAL Uncle Eben learned that Rob's company was stationed at Malvern Hill only a few miles from the plantation, but that Young Marse had been taken as temporary prisoner by dem Black Yankees, . You may well imagine our joy when he escaped and riskily rode home. We prepared the best square meal we had cooked in months--when a squad of Federal soldiers appeared, and made bold with all our dainties. ln the meantime Rob had hidden in the tiour-chest. Happening to think of the tea-pot, I made as tho to prepare tea, and smuggled the money away to Rob. After sufficiently indulging their appetites they decided to search the place for the prisoner, leaving one guard in the kitchen. He was a young fellow, a Yankee born and bred, and he began jest- ing with me. l knew Rob was getting angry, for the lid of the flour- chest was beginning to move--suspiciously. Edging over to it I plumped myself down on the top. boon, the other soldiers return- ed from their search and with mock bows bade us farewell. The guard hung back, and when the others were out of earshot, turned to me with a merry twinkle in his eye. 'You had better hurry your prisoner away.' And all the time I had thought that he did not know. It did not take me long to don an old suit of Rob 's father's and he a house-dress of black Aunt Lucindy's. Mounting a dappled work horse and carrying a basket of eggs on one arm he greatly resembled a respectable country woman going to market. Straight by the cn- emies pickets he rode, and on to his own camp. In the meantime I had taken his black saddler and was en- joying a gay cross country run as the Federals pursued me. I led them a merry chase until it seemed no longer safe, and then halted. Riding up, they made the disgusting discovery that I was a girl. That was the last of my adventures and the last time I ever saw Rob. The days following were terrible ones, and they have seared in my memory scars that time can never etfaee. The house was converted into a hospital and in the horrible seven days battle that ensued, Confederate and Federal, friend and foe alike, were nursed with equal care. We knew not but that the next one brought in might be he, but it was not to be. Word came that my father was daily growing more feeble, so I started on my perilous journey home. I and the chased teapot that was the only memento of the happier story of my life. It's motto I from henceforth chose as my own for this and 'to live in scorn of miserable aims that end with se1f,' are the highest attainments that I can comprehend. Here in this Hoosierland the lives of its people are as unevent- ful as the gently rolling meadows of its country, and so I have waited, but after all, I have generally found the duty lying nearest me, requires all that I have to give. And my life has not all been tuned in a minor key, for there is always the turn in the road. And you know, altho 'tis perhaps a fantastical idea, our faith teaches us that matches are made in heaven. Aunt Prudence was vehemently ringing the dinner bell for us to return. 'While Aunt Patience was talking I had been noticing a carriage coming far down the road and wondering why it was stop- ping therc by the gate. A tall man with iron gray hair and stately bearing came toward us. Aunt Patience had been sitting with her THE SENIOR ANNUAL back toward him and I called her attention to him. Doffing his hat he inquires if a Miss Fanway lives anywhere in the neighborhood. He glances sharply at Aunt Patience and she pales, until I believe that she must be ill. But no, for with a little cry of mingled joy and pain she puts out her hand to meet the one that he has extended. She turns to me with a wonderous light shin- ing out from her face, a light that counterbalances all the years in the silent Desert of Waiting. t'Virginia, Virginia, it is Rob l But I slip aside and run away to pacify Aunt Prudence who is coming down the road at a speedy walk. An for the love of mercy, Virginia, she says, what be a lone spinster woman like Patience Fanway, gallavantin' around with a man for? After explaining she finally comprehends who it is. NVaal, waal, when will miracles cease to be performed? And then she bustles down the hall to prepare supper.

The day is nearly finished for the sky is all opal, tlec-ked with silver, with a faint rim of turquoise and rose. The hollyhocks that edge the garden walk are nodding their weary heads to rest, and the poppies look like great drops of blood against the ,pure White of the lillies that stand as stately and tall as Rossetti's angels. t Everything is effused with a mellowlhiiliting ligl,Lt,,Qnly.,the knoll of pines like grim sentinels in the distantfaiburying groundfstand out darkly against all this glow.

NJA On Friday night May 28, 1910, the Junior Class entertained the Senior class and members of the Faculty at the Appollo Club Rooms. It was well attended and everybody reported a fine time and lots of fun. The Junior girls served the refreshments and the boys washed the dishes. That is division of labor for you. On the way home a little burglar ehasing was indulged ing but no game was bagged. 'L Just a word about the Alumni game this year. It was a re- markable gameg but two hits were made, and errors figured in all the runs made. Misehler made a grand stand eateh and then fan- ned out three times. Singrey let a pretty one go by and then punched out on two high ones. It was one of the best alumni games ever played, and the High School team deserves a good deal of credit for beating the best team that ever represented the alumni. THE SENIOR ANNUAL F.

There are several things which are necessary to produce a win- ning team in the form of athletics. Not only in basket ball, but in any athletic undertaking, We must have the support of the school, the proper spirit, and material from which to choose a team. Even when we have the aforesaid things at our command we cannot be expected to produce a firstclass team without practice, and coaching under favorable conditions. Practice does not mean an occasional meeting and throwing the hall around, it means regular meetings every day and several hours of good work, with proper coaching, in a hall that is well heated and of regulation size. An important point, which is quite an aid to any team, is ex- perience. Our team may play wellat home and do fine work in prac- tice, but very often when they meet with an out of town team in a strange hall, experience is noticeably lacking. Some of these advantages were lacking or were denied the P. II. S. team of 1910. Therefore the best, or even good results could not be expected. There seemed to be plenty of enthusiasm and spirit, but the team was hampered for want of a place to have regu- lar practice and for playing games. VVith the opening of the sea- son many tried for the team and after it had heen picked, aided in practice. The team possessed but one man who had played with out of town teams. Under such conditions they could hardly he ex- pected to compete successfully with opponents who had the advan- tages of regular practice and previous experience. With the advent of another season it is hoped that with some experience and a place for practice, the Plymouth High School will he able to win back some of its lost honors. On Thanksgiving a large and enthusiastic crowd Watched an exciting game which was Won by Bremen in the last few minutes ot' play. Our defeat was not due to playing on the floor but to throwing goals from the foul line. The score was 12 to l3. When the team went to Winona they met defeat twice at the THE SENIOR ANNITAL TEAM LL SE BA P. H. S.

The score with W'inona Agricultural College was 72 to 0, that with Winona Acad- emy 46 to 10.f At Warsaw where, the teams were evenly matched, the Plymouth team was defeated by a score of 44 to 12. The boys being unused to such a hall, which was far from regulation size, were easily defeated. The boys were unable to finish the season because they were denied the use of a hall. The P. H. S.

Since the year 1903, High School athletics have been under school supervision. In the fall of 1903, the High School Athletic Association was organized and shortly afterwards, the high school became a member of the Northern Indiana High School Athletic Association. In 1904 the State High School Athletic Association was organized and the following spring, Plymouth became a mem- ber of this association, which membership is still retained. During the period which has elapsed since the organization of our Athletic Association, various forms of athletics have been in- dulged in by the P. H. S. students. Foot-ball, basket-ball, tennis, track and field work have each had their share of attention, but baseball has maintained the lead. In the spring of 1904, the first uniformed high school team was organized. Under the coaching of Supt. Randall the team suc- ceeded in winning six out of a series of eight games. In 1905, the boys did even better, and won seven out of eight games played. The '06 team, however, did not fare quite so well, and were only able to win one-half of the games which they played. But, the following year the boys succeeded in beating the 1905 record, by winning eight out of nine games played. Since that time, the baseball strength of the P. H. S. has been on the decline. In 1908, the team won only one, out of a series of eigth games, and in 1909, only two out of a series of seven games. and in 1909, only two out of a series of seven games. One thing is noticeable, however, and that is the fact that in nearly every game which the teams of 1908 and 1909 lost they were only beaten by one or two points. At the time of this writing, the boys of the Plymouth High School are again out in baseball togs, and trying to regain some of the lost ground. Cy Foreman is captain of the team, and Supt. Randall has charge of the coaching of the team. Although we have lost our first two games, we have by no means given up our struggle for supremacy. Saturday April 23rd, we played our first game on the home diamond, and although we lost to Laporte, by the score of 6 and 5, THE SENIOR ANNUAL yet we proved to the people of Plymouth, that the team possessed some very good material. We still have six games to play, and by making a few changes in our team line-up, we hope to be able to make a good showing. A brief personal mention of each member of the team will serve to give the reader a better idea of our 1910 squad. We will start with Paul Thayer, the largest man on the team. Paul plays the backstop position, and receives the ba-ll in an easy fashion. Although a little slow with his throws, yet he succeeds in getting the majority of those runners who are daring enough to at- tempt stealing. He is also developing into a good batter, and a fast base runner. Earl Shroeder, commonly known as Pete is undoubtedly the best left-fielder that has ever played on a P. H. S. nine. He is fast on his feet and grabs everything that comes his way. Otis Williams, another outfield man has also proven himself to be a valuable player. He is a dangerous man with the bat, and is developing into a fast base-runner. Perhaps the most prominent player on the team is Tom Myers. Tom is a big tall senior who has made himself famous because of the continual jabber which he keeps up, when on the ball field. Tom is a good utility man and has also had considerable experience in the box. Otto Long-the boy with the Quaker Oats grin, is at pres- ent doing most of the twirling work. Otto has a complete assort- ment of curves, lots of good control, and an occasional burst of speed. This together with his head work and fielding ability makes him a very valuable man. Walter Thayer-last year's star center fielder is now guarding the second sack. Although the infield work is new to Dutch, yet he is developing into a good baseman. He is also a good batter and baserunner. Little Gerald Shreve, the lightest man on the squad has become quite popular amongst the fans. Shreve can do almost everything on the team, except catching behind the bat. He never loses his head, and is always willing to do his best, no matter where he is placed. Otto Kruyer, one of our new men, also promises to make a good infielder. At the beginning' of the season, Kruyer showed good form as a pitcher, but was later put out of the game, because of an injured hand. However, it will not be long until he can again appear in uniform, and thus strengthen the team by his Work. Patsy Kebert and Mischler take turns at playing the bench, and right field. Both are good outfielders and are always working for the good of the team. THE SENIOR ANNUAL J JUNIOR? DREAM nfl? 'N Ly ' .

Bessie Jacoby, '11 Mr. Goble is out, said the office boy, shortly addressing a young and stylishly attired lady, but he left word that if anyone called, to say that he would be back soon. He's gone most a half hour now, so I expect he will be here any minute. Thank you, replied the lady, I am in no hurry and can wait without inconvenience. She seated herself at Mr. Goble's large desk and began toying with the numerous papers which were scattered there, but seeing the office boy's astonished look she remarked with a smile, l am Mrs. Goble and -but she was interrupted by the boy who anx- ious to make amends for his seeming rudeness, stammered as best he could, Why I beg your pardon Mrs. Goble, hope you won'f be detained long. Can't I bring you in an easy chair from the next room? No thank you, this is quite comfortable, again the boy bowed, and hastily left the room, closing the door rather noisily behind him. He had scarcely been gone a minute before the door opened and he re-appeared. Here are the morning papers, Mrs. Goble, perhaps you would care to read them while you are waiting, and once more regard- ing her with admiration, he left the room. Mrs. Goble sat for some time arranging the various objects on the desk, and then she picked up the papers, softly talking to her- self as she turned the pages. t'Dear, the papers as a rule are dry enough, but now they are even worse than usual. Here, the whole front page is full of politics. Whose to be the next president etc. Its no wonder that women always incline to their magazines. VVell here are the styles,-perhaps this will be more interesting. Of THE SENIOR ANNUAL course, those large hats are all the rage and Harry just hates them and I shan't wear one as long as he objects to them. The dear boy, I wonder what 's keeping him so long. I'll just wait a few minutes longer, and then if he doesn't come I'll leave a little note for him and hurry home. Oh, here 's the 'Lost and Foundf One generally sees strange things advertised here. 'Lost, black dog etc.' 'Lost, fancy gold chain, etc.' Lost, last Thursday evening on South Side elevated train a black mink muff. Finder please return and receive liberal reward. H. C. Goble, Columbus Memorial Building Suite 218! What in the world does this mean? Mr. H. C. Goble-Why, that 's my husband. How foolish I am--of course it's not. But the same - and yes, it must be Harry, because it 's his office, this very room that I'1n sitting in, but what could he be doing with a lady 's muff? Yes, now I remember, he went out that evening, said he had some work to do at the office, and when I asked him what he had to do he evaded my question and hurried away. Then, too, I remember that Friday some woman called him by telephone and when I told her Mr. Goble was out, she rang off. 'tYes, now 1 remember it all, she cried excitedly wringing her hands and pacing up and down the iioor - his pleadings to go to the office something he never did before, and then that telephone message. and worst of all, a lady's muff. Well, there's only one thing to do. l'll just pack a few of my things and go home to visit mother. l expected to go next week, anyhow, and it will be a little surprise for mother. I'll leave a note for Harry and he won't guess why l've gone. In the meantime mother and I will discuss the matter and mother, I am sure will know what I had better do. Returning to the desk Mrs. Goble- hastily wrote a few lines, then ringing the bell, she summoned the office boy, and nervously handed him the note. She asked, that it be given to her husband on his return to the office, and taking her purse she hurriedly lel't the room, leaving the office boy amazed at the change that had come over her. A little later Mr. Goble returned to the office and on reading the note he was somewhat surprised at his wife's sudden departure from home. Well, I presume she was planning a little surprise for her mother by going a few days earlier than she had expected. Tomor- row will be Sunday and a lonely one without her, so I'll just fol- low her. He rang the bell and the office boy answered. Any one called, George? Yes, sir, replied the boy, Mrs Goble I believe, sir. NVhat time did she leave? About an hour ago, sir. Well, George, you may go-there were noeotber calls? XVhy, there is a package too, for you. The boy disappeared but soon returned, bringing what was soon discovered to be a mulii. Wlio brought this? A lady, sir, said she was acquainted with you and Mrs. Goble. I believe she said she saw you have it on the car, Thursday, but you got away before she could catch you. She telephoned you the next day hut was unable to get you. Thank you, George, you may go. THE SENIOR ANNUAL 'tMuch obliged, sir. Good night. As the door closed behind the boy, Mr. Goble rose from his desk and hastily pulled'on llisocoat, t00K his hat and the mui and left the oiiice. It was early Sunday morning. Mrs. Goble was at home with her mother, who had been discussing the mui problem with her for some iii-me, when they werefinterrupted by the maid, who an- nounced.M.r. Goble. 1 ,l..i .

Opal Zeiter, '11. Poor little Anna who had lived all her life in a pretty cottage on a shady hill side, was forced to leave her cheery English home and come over to gloomy America to live. After she came to America, she would lsit for hours looking away into nowhere, thinking of her old English home. She seemed so sad that her aunt pitied her, so she took her on a long pleasure trip, to Yellow Stone Park and later to Niagara Falls. Then, after spending two weeks at Lake George, they returned home. Here she spent many pleasant days in the parks near her uncle 's house while her aunt continued to hope that the little girl would learn to love America as well as the other children about her did. It was fall now, the leaves on the trees Jwere bright yellow, dark green, red, and light brown, the orchards were loaded with the finest fruit that had been seen for many years. Every one spoke of the beautiful autumn. The children played in the pretty leaves, and on the still evenings they burned the withered brown ones. When Anna would play with the children they would ask her, lsn't this the most beautiful place you have ever seen? Then she would answer, No place is half so pretty as dear old England. All the children began to talk about school now, all that they said seemed very strange to Anna, for she never had been to a public school, as her teacher had always come to her home and taught her. Her aunt now made arrangements for her to go too. After school had begun in earnest, Anna liked it rather well. She seemed interested in everything except American History, she did not like this, and seemed to think of other things, while she was in history class. It was now the twenty-second of February, and the teacher thought it would be a treat for the children to tell what they knew of George Washington 's life. She told them some of the things she thought would be interesting to them, how gallantly he had rallied the poor suffering soldiers at Valley Forge, how he so cunningly led the soldiers around Cornwallis, and how he saved our nation. Now several of the pupils were called upon, and each one praised him as the father of our country. And what can you tell us of George Washington, Anna? the teacher said- Anna arose to her feet,-her curls were flung back from her face, her black eyes fairly snapped, and a bright red spot showed plainly on each white cheek, -she stood for a moment with her small hands clinched together, then said: You all tell me George Washington was a great, grand, and noble man. Do you call anyone who is cowardly and deceitful noble? Do you call anyone noble who will lead a rebellious army against his own king as he did? Was it good and kind of him to sacrifice so many of his be- loved brothers that he might rule this stolen country? Your great, grand and noble George YVashington was no more than any other deceitful traitor, altho he managed not to get caught. THE SENIOR ANNUAL ' , , THE SENIOR ANNML Q THE SENIOR ANNUAL And I don 't quite see why you think he was such a fine man, when you know these things are so. The teacher and the pupils sat in bewilderment, some of them with their mouths open, a few almost laughed, but most of them sat as if they were made of stone. The teacher finally collected her thoughts, smiled kindly on the little English orphan, who really thought that George Washing- ton was a bad man, and said, It is because we are Americans that we love and honor him. But Anna sat there with her arms folded, her chin trembling, and her large eyes filled with tears, too proud to cry and let them know how homesick she was for her old home and friends. That Gal of 0urn. Riuama Sult, '11. The old man and the agent were sitting on the front porch of the old farmhouse. The honeysuckle trailed up the sides lending its sweet fragrance to the air. In the distance the lowing of the cat- tle and the tinkling of the bell of some lost sheep were heard. The new moon had just begun to show itself over the hilltops. The tall, slender form of a girl was seen slowly coming down the dusty road. No, said the old man, she ain't no kin ter me, but et seems as if she oughter be. You see it was this way, and here he stopped to light his pipe and settle himself in the old-fashioned porch rocker. ' The old woman and me were a gittin' on in years and I had always had a wish thet we might some day take a kid fer our own, but my wife always was jist so set again it thet I had just about given up the idee. But one Sunday afternoon when we was a settin' here a tall, stoop-shouldered man, with a pack on his back leading a small gal stopped and asked fer lodgin over night. Huldah, - that's my wife-wasn't much fer takin' in a stranger, but he of- fered to pay and we both took such a likin' to the little gal thet we let 'em stay. As soon as supper was over Huldah showed 'em to their rooms and we didn't see nothin' more of 'em till mornin'. The man was up early the next mornin' ready to start, and he called me aside, and says as how he didn't see as he could take the gal Mary with him, so he offered to pay her board With us fer a month, at the end of which time he 'd come and git her- He wouldn 't tell us what her last name was though he said he was her father. Well, Huldah and I talked it over and at last agreed ter keep her fer a month. We took our answer back ter ther stranger, and a kissin' her tenderly he took up his pack and started away. We tried our best to make it pleasant fer the little gal and she tried jist ever so hard to please us. She'd sweep the kitchen, gather the kindlin' bring up ther cows and help wash the dishes, and do anything she could. Huldah and I waited ther end of the month jist a dreadin' ter sec it come, fer we had grown to love that little gal. At last the day came and we heard nothin' from the man. Years passed and still we heard nothin'. In ther meantime Mary grew to be the best in her class at school and there warn't nobody in all the neighbor- THE SENIOR ANNUAL hood among the young folks that was liked any better'n she was. We were jist awful proud o' her. But one day when Mary was about fifteen a stranger came ter ther door and Wanted ter see me. He were all dressed up fine, Huldah says, like somebody from the city. I went ter ther door and there I seen a man who war ther same one who had brought Mary here ten years before. Then he says ter me as how he 'd got mixed up in some kind of a robbery, and had been sentenced ter eight years at Michigan City. After he got out he says he had lived a respect- erble life and had gotten a comfortable home and had come now ter take Mary to it. Well the story come jist like a shock to our minds. Et seemed as if our hearts would break, fer we loved the dear gal so, but it seemed as if our duty lay right before us, fer you see he was her own father. Mary didn 't want to go any more than We wanted ter have her, but a week later our eyes a swimmin' in tears We seed her start fer her new home. Now as I look back and think about it, it seems as if et were all fer the best, fer her father has sent her through college and made her a lady. Huldah and I went up ter see her graduate and we felt mighty proud. She 's a teacher now in one of ther High Schools up at ther city but every summer she don 't forgit her old home, fer she comes back here fer her vacation, and thet's her story- As he finished he sat for a long while silently smoking his pipe. The frogs continued their solitary song and the moon now shone brightly. Softly and sweetly a girl's voice was heard singing Coming Through The Rye, as the girl came over the hill. The Echoeless Shore. Hazel M. Sands, 'l1. - You seem to have an unlimited amount of impudence which you carry around with you and seem to consider humorous, con- tinued Miss Klein and then paused to note the effect of her words upon the girl before her. Well, say -- began Alys in a voice which was wholly in- describable, it was not angry and certainly it Was not tearful, she was too proud to give way to tears in the face of a lecture from one of her teachers. You may go now, remarked Miss Klein and Alys walked out into the hall as buoyantly as if she hadn't just been called impu- ident. Once out in the hall, however, it was very diiferent. High school had been out for half an hour, the halls and class-rooms were quite empty and-she cou1dn't help it, the tears would come and' continued to come, although she brushed them savagely away. She ought not, she hasn't any right to say that to me. I can't help it if I am impudentg I haven't any mother and I'm all made wrong, anyhow,-oh, my mother! The great, burning tears fell faster for Alys was realizing what mother means to a girl of six- teen or seventeen. She hurried on down the stairs, her eyes so blinded with tears of anger and mortification that she tripped on the last step and fell heavily forward, dropping her hooks and papers. She scrambled up, furious at herself for having fallen, and began to gather up her THE SENIOR ANNUAL g books and papers. Close to her hand lay a dainty, little sketch of Elisabeth, she snatched it up angrily and tore it into pieces-she was impudent-she had no business with anything like Immensee or Elisabeth, she was-nothing. All the way home she kept re- peating those words, impudent, impudent. A Junior and to be called impudent,-the idea! Oh, well, it didn't make any diierence, she might as well be impudent as be anything else. Alys went on down the street without a glance at the Library, where she usually stopped to read until supper-time. At the next corner was the music-hall and Alys suddenly remembered that a pipe-organ recital was to be given there that evening and the organist must be practicing inside now. She slipped in and sat down quietly in a corner. The great, empty hall was quite dim ex- cept for one long, slender shaft of sunset-light falling in a slant thru the stained window. Alone on his bench sat the organist, quite unconscious of Alys' presence- The girl shrank back in the corner, waiting. A confused tangle of thots filled her brain. She had but one definite idea: she hated Miss Klein-and hated her with all the intensity of a proud, sensitive nature. The organist put aside his book and threw back his head. He struck the first sharp chord and Alys started, it was as if a cold air had brushed over her and made her thots clear. What did she care for impudence and sarcasm, she only wanted to listen, listen. The fierce torrent of voluminous chords, rushed swiftly, passionate- ly on-swaying, shuddering,-a heavy, rolling and throbbing har- mony. Alys' face burned and her eyes sparkled. Then came a thot of Miss Klein, 1 hate her,-hate her, thot the girl, responding eagerly to the imperious command in the swelling organ-tones. Suddenly, as she sat, every nerve strained and tense, a long, tender, quivering chord came swelling up over the last sustained notes-Alys gasped. How could she hate anybody when there was music like that? Pure and clear rose the exquisite melody-more pleading-more caressing - Mother, whispered the girl. The last note was ended. Alys slipped out of the door and down the street. Home, up to her room she flew and threw herself upon her knees beside the hed, Mother, mother, mother, she sobbed. l-l11,1-ii AN INTERESTING LETTER. My Dear Friends of the P. H. S.- I have been asked to write to you and tell you of my new home. l do not think the scenery from Plymouth to Minneapolis is Very diferent from any you have seen. We left Minneapolis late Saturday night, April 9th, so did not see anything until Sunday morning. All day Sunday We went thru the desolate plains and bad lands of North Dakota and part of Montana. There were very few towns and houses. A large part of the land was alkali, which kills all vegetation. We made Very few stops and when we did, it was for ten or fifteen minutes, during which time we promenaded up and down the platforms of the sta- tions. Sunday at 12 150, we arrived at Mandan, N. D., stopped ten minutes and left at twelve, owing to the fact that we changed from Central to Mountain time- Monday when we awoke we were in the mountains, as we were THE SENIOR ANNUAL all the rest of the trip. That afternoon we again changed time. We arrived at the gates of Paradise CMont.D at 2 :50, stopped ten minutes and left at 2:00. So you see that when you are dismissed from school I am still pegging away at my lessons. We were very fortunate at being in a car with many other jolly travelers. But I am sorry to say we had to leave them Monday ev- ening, for we stopped at Spokane, Washington, to spend the night. Before we retired we went around the city a little, and we also saw the falls, which are very beautiful. If I may judge by what I saw of the city it does not compare with Portland. Tuesday morning we continued our journey. Between Spokane and Portland is the only scenery really worth mentioning. It is cer- tainly grand. There are no large towns but quite a number of small ones, and probably six or seven little Indian villages. From the car we saw many beautiful little falls coming down the mountain sides, the best known being the Bridal Veil falls, and he Multnomah Falls which falls about eight hundred and forty feet. We followed the Snake a.nd Columbia Rivers for a number of miles, and no more beautiful scenery could be imagined than that which is along these rivers. We passed thru the Pillars of Hercules, two immense boulders, on either side of the ear track, which are covered with variegated foliage. We arrived here in Portland late Tuesday night. My first im- pressions were ouite unfavorable, but now I think it is the only place to live, probably with the exception of Plymouth, Indiana- From Council Crest, an amusement Park, on too of a mountain, Which is twelve hundred feet high, one may obtain a fine view of the city and surrounding country. On clear days can be seen, from here, Mt. Hood, which is about eighty miles away, and a little over twelve thousand feet high, and also Mt. Helena. Both of these mountains are snow-capped, Mt. Hood being rather pointed and Mt. Helena rounding. From the former comes all the water that is used here in Portland. One curious thing about this place is that they have no alleys here, and on that account the blocks are rather short, there being only twenty numbers to the block. I expect you all know that the Wlillamette river divides the city into East Portland and Portland proper The school which l attend is about once and one half as large as the Washington school in Plymouth, and is built of gray stone. There are between thirty and forty class rooms, on three different floors. We do not have a large assembly room, but each class room has a certain number of nuoils registered there. School takes up at nine and dismisses at two thirty. VVe have six periods of forty- five minutes each and after the fourth we have about half an hour far lunch. In the basement is a cafe, where most of the students t .lge their lunch. I think I have told about everything of importance which I have seen, so will close. Hoping not to be entirely forgotten by you.

I The Chronicle of Class of '12. In the fall of 1908 about sixty Freshmen entered the Plymouth High School. On the first day there were a few slight mishaps such as sitting down on tacks and pins, otherwise we were very suc- cessful espccially in finding our correct class rooms? ? About two weeks after that long-to-be remembered first day, the principal, when he came in to make the usual announcements, proclaimed the fact that the Freshmen would hold their first class meeting in thc Latin Room immediately after dismissal, whereupon we were greet- ed by such hearty applause thatweven the principal smiled Clmpos- sible?D After our very successful first meeting, in which we elected such excellent officers, we felt very elated. We must have strutted around with so much pride as to convince thc Sophomorcs that our heads would burst, so in order to avert this dreadful calamity they tied several Freshmen in the city park. Outrageous! where they made the pompadours of Conroy Eley and Keith Ricliter look a la leoporde. ln retaliation for this very contemptible deed the boys of our class made a Maltese cross on the head of one ol' the Hophomores. This particular Sophomore, it seems, did not have tl.e price of a THE SENIOR ANNUAL hair-cut, so four Freshmen were compelled, by the circuit court, to pay for this tonsorial treat, and the price amounted to 352450, fRath- er expensive hair eut.j In consequence of this result we lost two of our fellow-classmates. During the year several of us were intro- duced to eggs in many very unique ways through the kindness of some old-time jol' ers. Near the end of the year a very nerve-racking experience was ours, in fact our brains were tortured by the thought of it for many days after-days that were weary days of waiting. VVell, to come to this event we had the pleasure of looking at the birdie on Mr. Steele's camera while we had our photographs taken for the Senior Annual. Afterwards when some of us told the photog- rapher that we did not like our pictures, he said that they would have been better if he had taken ours before those of the class of '11, but as it was we must be resigned to fate, for something was wrong with the camera and something had been wrong with it ever since those Sophomores had been photographed. VVe think that the only real pleasure the other classes derived from this all important event in our Class History, was that they were able to clap us out of the Assembly Hall as we went to our respective positions of torture. Another very important event happened in the spring. The annual oratorical contest was to be held, and if the Plymouth High School sent a representative, it must hold a preliminary in order to decide who was to go. Well, the preliminary was held in the Webster School auditorium. Both the contestants in oration were Freshmen, one a boy and the other a girl. The girl came out victorious. of course, and was awarded with a five dollar gold piece. This meant that she would go as our representative to the real contest, which, as a favor to Argos, was held in the beautiful new High School building at Bremen. Very much to our gratification our represen- tative, Mabelle Miller, won the first prize which was a gold medal. Of course we were very exultant to think that a Freshman should win highest honors! Argos also rejoiced with us, even to such a great extent that they held debates among their pupils on the prin- ciples of our High School, and put articles, very complimentary ones, in their papers. Our first year closed with many of those long dread- ed 1 finals During the summer several of our comrades strayed beyond the call of the school bell. Consequently only thirty-six of our original number entered that beloved Assembly Hall Chear! hear ll Where as Freshmen we had spent so many happy hours, and where as Soph- omores we were to participate now in the very effusive welcome ac- corded to the new Freshmen by the upper classes. The first few weeks were spent by us in trying to give the new Freshmen Class some of the treatment which we had received the year before, but the class seemed so delicate and had such weak constitutions that their parents, fearing the results of these pranks, sent in many grievous complaints to the School Board. These unlooked for pro- ceedings, much to our disappointment, put a check on our hazing. In our election of officers, which followed a little later, we elected Herlus Poore as a successor to Roland Metsker, our first President. Naturally we felt very much elated when our president was elected captain of the P. H. S. Basket Ball Team, in which he did some very ifocd work. Things moved along very uneventfully until in the spring, when our president with two other members of our class THE SENIOR ANNUAL - strayed away from their companions, to accept very good positions in automobile factories. Thus being deserted we felt rather at a loss for a president until we elected our former vice-president, Erma Cressner, to fill the place. When tl1e base-ball team was organized in the spring, two of our members were chosen to fill places on the team. One of these had the year before proved himself very efficient in the art of pitching. When we, of the class of 1912, attend the games we feel very proud to see members of our class on the dia- mond. Here endcth the chronicle of the second year. A Sophomore Meeting. Ruby Reynolds, Class of '12. At the appointed time a few straggling Sophomores entered the history room. Excepting a few enthusiastic members of the class the others were mainly the officers. After they had taken their seats each one began to ask questions concerning the why and wherefore of the meeting. Opening the door at this moment the principal came in and appointed a young lady to take charge. In a short time she made a statement which answered moss of the questions about the meeting. lt seemed as if the president had deserted his class in order to attend an automobile school where one learns how to clean oil tanks, to crawl in among machinery, to remove bursted tires, to become as black as night in-ten minutes, and even to wear goggles. Of course, all regretted the loss but, they were speedily brought to order by the young lady who began to count them. Finding that their number had not reached a quorum, they could not elect a new president so they adjourned again. A second time the principal announced a meeting of the Sopho- mores. Once again they assembled, this time in the mathematics room, but alas! a lesser number were assembled. Then a few grew desperate and a thorough search was made for some of those rare beings called Sophomores. They succeeded in collaring a few and took them to the mathematics room. Again the young lady counted them and discovered that the large number of thirteen was reached. However, as this was not enough to do business they adjourned again. For the third time the patient principal announced a meeting of Sophomores to be held in the history room. Then he explained that there was a little business to be attended to and that all the members should be present. A third time the members of the class assembled, some Went merely to satisfy their growing curiosity and others went because of the principal 's urgent request. After the young lady in charge had counted those present it was quite a surprise to learn that a majority of twenty-three was reached. At last there were enough to do business and the young lady asserted that someone should name a candidate for president. Several shy maidens named their favorites in whispers but, one bolder than the rest spoke the name of the chairman herself. It is needless to describe the surprise of the newly elected who found her- self to be a real president, but she blushed more than ever as she opened the door for the meeting to adjourn. FIIIC SIGN I O R A NN UAI . , ' e A ? 4 i I , 1 I 2 I THE SENIOR ANNUAL HAZING ABOLISHED. Drastic Action Has Been Taken by Faculty in Regard to the Pernic- ious Tradition of Huing Freshmen. About the middle of the year 1908-09 an incident occurred which caused the School Board and Faculty to abolish hazing, and the fol- lowing rules were adopted: 1. Sophomores shall be nice to Freshmen. 2. Upon meeting a Freshman, upper classmen shall dangle the hat upon the left shoulder. 3. No stronger language than O Hg, Shoot, Oh May ap- ple, or Fruit cake shall be used by Sophs. 4. Upper classmen must walk erect on the street and step aside for Freshmen. 5. Excuse Freshmen from any rules and regulations of the P. H. S. for they can 't read. 6. Upper classlnen shall open the doors for Freshmen. Vtle also found the following letters on the subject: Members of the Faculty: - My dear son Johnny came home trembling with fear. He said that some of the Sophs were intending to throw him in the river with his hands and feet tied. I write this to show my appreciation of the new rules abolishing hazing, and hope they will be enforced. Thankfully yours, Mrs. H- Members of the School Board: My dear Sirs My darling son Frankie .came home from school crying. His feet were soaking wet and I am sure that some of the Sophs did it. Since he is our only son it breaks father's and my heart to think of our dear being l.urt. Hoping this new movement will be closely followed as other schools are doing, I am Respectfully yours, Mrs. W- R. A. Randall: Dear Sir: l think it's just too sweet of you to abolish hazing. Our little boy Freddie started into school this year, and we thought a long time before consenting to let him go on account of the dangerous boys who are in the Sophomore class. VVe were so glad to hear that the terrible serpent has been crushed. Sincerely yours, Mrs. X-. THE SENIOR ANNUAL An April Snow. . P. H. S. '12. The snow has come and covered all the earth, The flowers sleep beneath the blanket white, The trees all look as if they too might die, The birds are shivering in their half-built nests, And everything seems blighted by the frost. The branches blackened by the melting snow, Reach out cold arms with withered finger leaves, And throw the cold wet snowballs on our cheeks We have not seen the sun for many a day. The weighted lilacs almost touch tl1e ground, With all beauty and fragrance nearly gone, The violets we saw thruout the woods, Are covered with the cold and pure white snow, The fruit we fear also is killed with cold. The trees so black contrast with the white snow, And all the earth which was so sweet and green, Is in the pure-white dress of winter seen. All things appear as dead until the sun Breaks through the dark and stormy looking clouds Then Spring in all her beauty does return. We hear again the songs of merry birds, Again the trees are clothed in their spring green. The violets and crocus lift their heads, We see again the world in beauty rife.

Well, goodbye, shouted the boarder as he climbed into the roadster that the chauffeur had brought up to the door. He was just leaving a summer hotel near a little lake in Wisconsin, to re- turn to the city. The people to whom he was speaking were the remaining boarders who were lounging on the veranda. Good-bye! good-bye! they called, and he was off. The summer had been a warm one, and Mr. York who was :1 clerk in the employ of Messrs. Rowe and Co., had come to this out- of-the-way place for a fortnight 's rest. Now he was returning to the city by way of Wilford, a small town twenty miles distant. From there he expected to catch the train to Detroit that evening, to join a theatre party for the evening's entertainment. The cool breeze fanning their faces as they sped along felt very good indeed, for the afternoon was exceedingly warm. Gradually the auto began to slow up, and the chauifeur got out to find out what was the matter. To his dismay, he discovered that they had run out of gasoline. But what are we to do? exclaimed York. l simply have to THE SENIOR ANNUAL reach Detroit this evening and here we are, five miles from even a farm house. About all you can do, is to wait here with the machine while I go over to Sam Brigg's and get some gasoline, responded the chauffeur. Just then a faint Honk! Honk! sounded in the distance and in another minute a large red touring car swung around a bend in the road. Upon seeing the roadster standing there it stopped, and the occupants got out to find out what was the matter. When the situation was explained to them, they offered to take York on to Wilford, and in another moment he and his suit case were stowed safely inside and once more on their way. They reached Wilford without any further accident, and Mr. York left his new friends to seek the hotel. As soon as he arrived, he ordered his dinner, and rushed up to his room to dress for the theatre, for his train would not reach Detroit until eight fifteen and he would be too late for the first act as it was. When he reached his room, and looked at his Watch he found that he had but fifteen minutes in which to dress and reach the train. He hurried into his clothes, and then donning his silk hat, and grabbing his suit case, he rushed down the stairway, and into the street. There was no cab in sight, so he started to run. He was nearly stopped several times by dismayed police-men, but he managed to get by them without losing much time. When he came within two blocks of the station, the train pulled in, and he ref doubled his efforts. He must catch that train or miss the play. Just as he reached the station, the train started. He was nearly ex- hausted by this time, but he elbowed his way through the crowd of people, and made a dash for the rear of the vestibule car. When he reached it he found the door locked, so he made a final dash for the ful 'K atform. At last gasping, and exhausted he clutched at the 1- fl, slipped, fell under the train, and the wheels went grinding over his head. There was a moan, a gasp of horror from the people standing on the platform, a scrcech of the whistle, the hiss of the brakes, and just as the last wheels passed him, the train stopped. For a while the people stood spellboundg then with a spontaneous movement, they rushed down toward the limp object on the track. Just as they reached him, they saw him stir faintly, roll over and arise white and shaking from the track. The Wheels had crushed only his silk hat, and left him uninjured. Then, as the porter helped him onto the rear platform, he waved the rim of his crushed and mangled hat to the bystanders, as the train moved on. - Just Imagine- Blanch McCoy with a little twist of hair.
