Thirteen l l S U CPERIN TENDEN T A. L. W HI TMER Mr. NVhitmer has given many years of constant devotion and toil to the progress of Rochester High School. He has seen our school advance, step by step, until it has attained its present place among the schools of the state. As superintendent, he has been a central figure in all of our activities, giving his enthusiasm and help to any enterprise that was for the henefit of the school. During all his years of service, no one has found him without a happy word or a desire to help others. The students appreciate his work and friendship, and hope he will assist many more classes in the future to graduate from R. H. S. Fourteen CPRINCIPAL L. K PHILLIPS The task of keeping three hundred students honorable in conduct. obedi- ent to laxv, loyal to school, and interested in work. is not an easy one. Yet we know that Mr. Phillips, as principal of Rochester High School for three years. has done this successfully. By tact, friendliness, and fair treatment of all, he has met the nmny problems that offer themselves daily, and has solved them, thereby winning not only the respect and admiration of the student body, but also the friendship and support of the community. He has been a friendly adviser, a loyal leader in all school activities, and an executive who has raised and kept the standards of the school high. XYe appreciate him as a teacher, principal and friend. Fifteen ii- eiii 'B ...im a .xiii ,xl 5 it Big :EJ-..:g - -ci Q 7: :lj 2-3 f.- rf- - - - 4 45.2255 .:. -.

Perhaps some day your wish may be fulfilled and what will be the most im- portant factor in changing the dream to reality? Xthy, trains and ships and automobiles, of course. for you could not possibly proceed far on your own unreliable legs. Our ancestors. thousands of years ago, were strongly built men and great travelers. They could cover many miles at a rapid, swinging trot. lf you believe Darwin, some of them possessed an even swifter and more active method of travel-from tree to tree. -Xt last some one captured a wild horse, tamed it and rode it. lle was laughed at even as the progressive men of all ages have been laughed at and ridiculed. Soon, however, most of the people of the earth were engaged in taining horses. Camels, too. became popular with the inhabitants of the desert. l.ater, when humanity became divided into the superior and inferior classes, the Romans made litters carried by slaves, the fashionable style of locomotion. For many vears the development of travel stood still. Then Robert Fulton's much-sneered-at steamboat took the place of the old sailing ships to the sorrow of those who preferred a billow- ing sail against the horizon to a black funnel and a cloud of smoke. Some time before this, the carriage drawn by horses had come into use and led as a means of travel until early in the nineteenth century when it was super- ceded by the marvelous invention which revolutionized all pre-conceived principles of locomotion-the steam engine. You have doubtless seen pictures ol the tirst train which is still in exist- ence. lt is a queer affair with a tiny engine in which all the mechanisms ap- pear to be on the outside and round carriages with parasols to protect the occupants from the weather. lt was known at times to run at the terriiic speed of twenty miles an hour. The train opened a way to similar inventions and several years later a Uhorseless carriagew appeared, a grotesque piece of machinery greeted with much skepticism and scolting. lflowever unbelievable it seemed to the worthy citizens of that time, this strange contraption was extremely successful anl we of the twentieth century find it difficult to imagine a city street without automobiles. Today it is the horse and buggy rather than the car, which is unusual. And now comes the most unbelievable of all--a man actually liying- flying like a bird, at nrst clumsily and with grave dangers, but today grace- fully and with comparative safety. The planes vary from the small gliders to the huge passenger carriers and are an indispensable part of transportation. Thus we can name the ways of travel almost on the lingers of one hand, Forty-two Jia 19 gg 525 hut how important they aref Perhaps if we could raise the veil of the future. we would see strange, awe-inspiring conveyattces for the accotnniodation of those of tomorrow who have an extra hoztr in which they wish to see Cali- fornia or :L day to spend in visiting' ligypt. llut as this is intpossihle, the in- ventions in transportation of the present and the past a e sufficient to satisfy even the ntost interesting people l knows-'the people with gypsy hlood in their veins and a vision ol' wind swept sky and rolling waves hefore their eyes. -Hilly Brown.

GEN T The door-bell was ringing incessantly. In fact, it had been ringing for fully tive minutes. But the woman, bent over the wash-tub in the kitchen of the old ram-shackle house, did not go to the door, thinking her visitor would eventually leave. lt was probably another book-agent, anyway. Those pesky book-agents bothered a person something scandalous, now-a-days. You just simply couldn't get away from them. They were thicker than flies on a lazy August afternoon. And ilu-but that bell was still ringing! Oh, well, maybe it wasn't a pesky old book agent, after all. NYith a weary shrug of her stooped shoulders, the widow O'Flannigan wiped her rough and calloused hands on her once-white apron and went to the door, pushing her uncombed hair from her forehead in a vain attempt to primp up. On the porch stood a young man ol perhaps twenty, and in his hand was-yes, a book! V 'tNladame, he began as he opened the book and started to leaf through it, perhaps you would be-U But he got no further. Mrs. O'Flannigan's dander was up at being called to the door by nothing but a book-agent. Her torrent of words descended like a cloud burst upon the young man. lf yer wan av thim book-agents, ye might as well be on yer way. Oi ain't got no use fer the likes av ye. None a-tall. XYhut with book-agents and Bolsheviks this kintry's goin' to th' dogs as shure as th' divills a sinner! XVhat little money Oi kin git by takin' in washin's don't last no longer thin a snow- ball in th' place where my ol' man wen afther he took down with th' Small ljox, no-how. And-. Hut, my dear madame, broke in the book-agent, as Mrs. O'Flannigan paused for breath. l'ni sure you will be interested in this wonderful work of literature entitled, 'iHow and XYhy to Grow Bananas in Siberiaf' lt comes in ten morocco bound, gilt-edged volumes and sells for only three dollars and ninety-tive cents, with terms to suit. Now just sign on the dotted line and pay me-f' No, siree, ye ain't talkin' to me! Mrs. O'l lannigan had regained her breath. Oi ain't carin' it' they don't have no bananas in Siberia. Besides, young man, whut use would an ould woman the likes av me have fer sich a book, no how? Mrs. O'Flannigan was partly convinced. Hadn't he said you could buy the book on the installment plan? And didn't it have gilt edges? Ah, thought the book-agent, she's beginning to thaw out. l'll sell her this set, yet. Aloud he said, First, it's not a book, but a collection of books, each a complete volume in itself. On the other hand, it would be of the greatest educational value to your children, a necessity which they could not afford to be without. K'But Oi haint got no kids, replied Mrs. O'Flannigan. NVell, then your grand-children could use it. Now on page ninety-three of volume three, it tells just why-. Oh, it's th' likes av you as drives a pore woman to her grave, so it is. No, Oi don't want yer ould book l and the furious Mrs. O'Flannigan slammed the door in the book-agent's face.

XYesley Mills, '26. ONE OF LIFE'S LITTLE TRAGEDIES The woman hurried down the steps of the railroad station. Her quick glances gave her a peculiar air. She approached a tall, blonde man with eager step. Have you seen anything of a small child, a boy? she queried. He looked at the nervous little woman with her lingers twitching inces- santly. XVith a grunt he took his well balanced person off in another direc- tion. The expression on the womanis sharp countenance did not change. She did not appear hurt by the slight. li one had looked closely, a gleam of malice could have been seen in her piercing eyes. Have you seen anything of a small child, a boy? The question this time was directed at an insignilicant looking little man with an air of having lost his last fried. His attitude toward the woman was altogether different from that of the other. VVith a smile he acknowledged having been addressed. No, I 11ZlX'C11't. Is there any further way in which I might help you? The woman had not waited for the last few words. The hurrying crowd closed in about her and she was gone. Many more people were asked that same question. Some of them were indifferent, cold. Uthers showed a spark of human sympathy but knew noth- ing of the one sought after. Only a few steps behind came a stern-faced, elderly woman dressed in black Have you seen a woman, a small, nervous-looking woman 7, The question was asked of many. The trail was not hard to follow. The woman dressed in black clasped the arm of the younger woman as she was asking the question again. The elderly woman looked up at the stranger with a hard smile. She's otf in the headg she lost her mind three years ago when her child was run down and killed by an automobile. Marjorie Downs, ,Z6.

But it was only on first sight that we pronounced him to look like the jolly old saint, for, with a closer view, we were disillusioned. There were sad. tired lines about the old man's mouth, and his form was thin and drooping. Hut his bright blue eyes were as piercing as if he had been thirty instead of ninety, and his smile seemed to be the expression of something young and beautiful in the old worn-out body. llis soft. snow-white hair hung to his shoulders, curling at the ends, and his even snowier beard waved like a white wool scarf in the slightest breeze. llc was always scrupulously clean, and his clothes, although old and worn, were neatly patched and carefully brushed. Perhaps I should disclose his identity. He was the man who plowed the small corntield of a neighboring gardener. His name was-no, l shall not tell his name. You might not recognize it, but if you have ever seen the man himself, his memory must surely be as vivid in your mind as in mine. l can see him now as plainly as if he was standing before me. Steadily down the length of the field, keeping his faithful horse, Bess, he walked, leav- ing a black, up-turned furrow behind him soon to be covered with the hungry birds he loved. His beard streaming over his shoulder, the red bandanna he wore around his neck, his brass and blue suspenders tfor he always folded his coat carefully and hung it on a tree while he was workingj contrasting with the rusty suit of indistinguishable color-all seemed a picturesque part of the spring landscape. i The old man was poor, pitifully, pathetically poor. He lived in a tiny cottage he had built himself, with his wife, a cheery, faded. toil-worn slip of a woman. But they were happy and loved each other with the beautiful love of the very old. lie used to bring a single, slim sandwich for his lunch, eaten after a hard mornings labor. Mother, when she discovered this, promptly invited him to dinner. Her hrst invitation he accepted gratefully. But the second he refused, with a gleam of pride in his eyes, explaining that his wife had baked a pie and he had not only a sandwich but a piece of pie. After that After that mother invented all kinds of excuses to enveigle him into eating with us. ln return for these kindnesses he would invite us children to ride on his plow and would tell us marvelous stories by the hour. Vile used to ask him, with the brutal frankness of childhood, if he was poor. Poor?', he would smile and say, while a far-away look came into his eyes. Poor? No, rich! The wealthiest man in the world ! and we would look at each other and wonder what he meant. One day in the church he attended and loved, with the peal of the organ in his ears and the colored windows in the brilliance of the sun dinuned and sanctified before his eyes, the old man fainted quietly away. lle never regained consciousness. There were throngs of people at his funeral, myriads of flowers! The best minister of the town preached the sermon. But his wife was allowed to spend not a cent of the little sum she had slowly and painstak- ingly hoarded, lt is when l think of these things that I begin to realize what the old man meant when he leaned on the plow, mopped his wrinkled forehead and said, Poor? Poor? No, rich! lim the wealthiest man in th world !'l , Billie Brown, y28.

There is an oppressing silence as each clerk hurriedly tidies up her counter. The town clock strikes six, and the shop girls, struggling with hats and jackets, pass out the door like a swarm of angry and buzzing bees. NVhen the last girl is gone, two men come down the aisle. The first is a large, well-built, and well dressed, pros- perous looking man. possibly forty years old. The second man is smaller, a little stooped and. although not more than forty, already a little gray. The contrast between the air of force and vitality, apparent in the first man, and the lack-luster eyes and drooping spirit ol the second man, is striking, and pathetic. lst Man: Hayden, l'm sorry, but it can't be helped.

GOOD WILL-MN MISSET 12nd Prize in Qtate liditorial Contest XYcek of February 247 The good will which a teacher bears tow ard a pupil is very valuable to the latter. lf the teacher has an ill-feeling toward the student, she can not kind and friendly attitude toward him which urges and encourages him to do his work strenuously. Instead, he will jog carelessly along saying, l don't carel The teacher has a pick at me, or some similar expression. Hut. on the other hand, if the pupil possesses the good estimate of his instructor, work is made more pleasurable to him and consequently he can work better. The teacher's good will is valuable to the pupil from another standpoint. Personal aid is sought by the pupil more freely when he is sure of his teacher's interest and good will. lle may go to her at any time and be sure of the best help she can give him. lle knows that it will be given in a friendly spirt, and since he seeks aid with the same attitude of mind, they work in harmony and accomplish the best results. The teacherls good will is valuable to a student in a spiritual way. This is probably of more worth to him than any other value. lt is ennobling to his character to know that he is held in high esteem by his teacher. He is encouraged to make himself more worthy of the interest taken in him. .X courteous respectful feeling rises between them and the characters of both are ennobled. W-llrcel Mae Powell, 223. CHRIST IN SCHOOL LIFE tZnd Prize in State Editorial Contest the XYeek of January 295 Xkihen you look at a crowd of high school fellows and girls and see evidences of disrespect for law and authority, a floating of moral ideals, sneers for religious instruction, and the ignoring of wholesome c-mventionality, there is occasion for grave concern. On the other hand. it is proper to recognize that the high school age possesses strong religious impulses and exhibits moral courage that is the hope of the future. The remark is sometimes made concerning Bible study in the school that the students study only to acquire the credit given but we believe many are eager to know more about Cod. Christ tells us that if we humble ourselves, repent, and believe. he will H11 our hearts with unspeakable joy. Some may say, 'Tm going to have a good time while l'm young: l'll consider that when l am older. Viho loves Fifty-one .f-Q'-:gli A .1 'A ,f:P:zr2::s sT ' j. Ng 19 V f L e H L Q E 5 26 'Z-.:9 :kaL' : v'7- N joy and happiness more than young people. They are generally seeking some- thing to give joy, and Christ has it. High school boys are deeply religious, yet reticient about the display of their inner spiritual life. In group discussions and group prayer, centering' about problems of their school affairs, Christ becomes real. lf every one in our high school would really accept Christ and receive the joy which comes from the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon a soul deeply repentant, what great friendship and love would hind the students together! -dOpal Qvermyer. THE LIGHT OF HOPE Dark, heavy clouds of gloom were brought Upon my heart one day, But then a sudden happy thought Soon drove them all away. The sun is always shining Behind those clouds of gray: There is a silver lining So tear those clouds away. And when the clouds are torn apart And the light of hope shines through, You'll soon forget your sad, sad heart And your thoughts so cold and blue. And only think of wholesome things. Like laughter, mirth and play, For hope, like sunshine, always brings joy that will ever stay. -Hugh Tobey. 27.

ORATORICAL C OGZNQTES T Uur school has always been prominent in athletics, but this year an eilort has been made to enlist interest in oratory also. The first contest in which our school participated was the National Uratorical Contest which is held annually in the United States. Richard Crowder, after a swift race with Carl Parker, won the honor of representing' our school in the county contest. Our contestant won which gave him the right ol competing' at the district contest at Plyniouth. Richard met deleat at the hands of Nathan l.evy of South liend. lnterest in oratory clid not wane as a result of defeat, because we had three enthusiastic students trying out lor the right to represent us in the XYabash Valley Oratorical Contest.

' NCPRINCSSS CBONNISU The Seniors started the dramatic season well by giving Princess Bon- nie October lo and 17. Anyone who saw this will never cease talking about it as it certainly was a success under the direction of Miss Bertha Duerden of the -lohn Rogers Company. The operetta contained beautiful music, and the catchy tunes were hummed about the school for many weeks. The set- tings were unusually decorative and colorful.

The audience found her singing' as good as her acting. Howard Chamberlain lived up to his former reputation on the stage in acting' the part of Roy Sterling, lover of Princess Bonnie. lilsie Spohn, as Auntie Crabbe and Fred Rankin as Capt. Tarpaulin, her brother, were true Easterners, and showed surprising vocal ability. Kathleen Klullican was in- deed the belle of the village and acted her part well. Shrimps tlimerson Zinnnermanl who was poetically in love with Kitty, proved himself to be UP. D. as well as a handsome young' suitor.

VVesley Mills as a count with a name too long' to pronounce re- minded one of the old Spaniards in story books---so romantic! The cast was completed by james Atkinson in his part of Captain Suri, a village fisherman. The lirst part of the play takes place off the coast of Blaine where sixteen years before it opens, a little girl was rescued who spoke a foreign tongue. All they could understand of her name was Bonnie Belle. Auntie Crabbe and Captain Tarpaulin kept her at the light-house where she learned to love Roy Sterling. Kitty'Clover, after much persuasion. fell in love with Shriinps. The second part of this romance takes place in Spain where Vomposo has come to claim his niece, l'rincess llonnabellevita and iorce her to wed Count Fla- geotti. llut beiore the wedding' the Count is proved to be a scroundrel and Bonnie married Roy, while Kitty finally pleases Shrimps and comes oft the ice. The Spanish dancers were picturesque as were the Never Fall in l,ove,' group and Spanish Lou Girls. The chorus and Spanish students each helped to make the play a success. Oi the Spanish Soldiers special mention should be made of Forrest Hertz for reaching the height of the ridiculous in his make-up. Sixty-seven 74.5 .T-sw: -si g ? it ' Af 3 '-Q1 '.

The play is a rollicking comedy that afforded an opportunity for splendid acting. The role of Cappyl' was especially difficult. but Robert Kenyon handled it admirably. The plot held the interest of the audience from beginning to end. Alden IJ. Ricks. an eccentric, lovable old multi-millionaire. thinks he can not be beaten in the shipping business. There comes to his ofhce in San Francisco from New York, an old friend's son, Cecil Pericles Bernard. This English type of chap has been sent by his father to learn the shipping business. lt seems he has a case of chorus-girlitis-has fallen in love with Ellen Murray, Mr. Ricks' private secretary, whose stage name is Goldie Glake. Florence, Mr. Ricks' daughter, and Captain Matt Veasley, in order that they may beat Hr. Ricks at his game form the Red Diamond Navigation Company. Florence, not desiring to disclose her own identity, tells Peasley that her name is Goldie Glake. This naturally leads to serious complications but the maze is straightened out-Cecil and Ellen hear Matt propose to Florry and Cappy comes into his office, only to discover the two couples embracing.

As Cappy's daughter, Kathleen hlullican won a fat charity cheek and the hero, Roy Fultz. This splendid hero, firm and resolute, was such a contrast to Cappy in dispo- sition. Edgar made a good lawyer, and ll ugh Tobey an amusing chauffeur for the Ricks. Viola ,I ones was transformed into a dear Aunt Lucy, quiet and sympathetic. Richard Crowder convinced us of his dramatic ability in his portrayal of the New York dandy, unused to work-Cecil Pericks Bernard. The settings for the three acts were appropriate and carefully played by john Shafer, stage manager.

DRAMATIC CLUB CHRISTMAS CPROGRAM The Dramatic Club presented a very interesting Christmas program to the high school assembly. The main features was a play, Squarring it XYith the Bossf' Rlr. Greening, the hero of the play told his boss he had a baby in order to get a raise. He decided to borrow the neighbor's nine year old son to take its place. The situation grew quite amusing when Aunt Hor- tense with her precious parrot and Aunt Therese with her precious cat and ,limmy's bt ss all arrived at hIimmy's home at the same time. The baby used surprising words for the baby he was supposed to be, and gave away the secret. Then to add to all the excitement. the precious cat killed the precious parrot and then -limniy killed the cat. Hut Mr. Dunn, the Boss, soon straight- ened things out by giving Aunt Hortense three parrots left him by h's .-Xunt and by giving Aunt Therese three cats also left him by the same aunt.

A special emphasis has been placed upon spelling and oral composition. Thought Books have provided an opportunity for frequent written work in the upper classes. A public speaking class the first semester aroused new inte est in oratory. ' Various classes contributed poetry and stories for the literary section of the Annual, as well as many editorials for Station R. H. S. Better Speech 'Wleek was observed by a poster contest, in which Lee Moonshower won first prize. SOCIAL SCIENCES There was a time many ages ago, when not a man in the world could read. :Xt length after thousands of years, we know not how many thousan4ls, men began to leave a written record of their own doings. This we call his- tory. This state has deemed history a necessary equipment of a high school pupil for graduation. Heretofore, only formal history was given: now the scope has been broadened to include the-social sciences. Freshmen are given the opportunity to take community civics. which is a study of local governmental institutions: also, vocational guidance, giving them an opportunity to become familiar with various occupations. For upper classmen are Problems of Democracy, civics and economics classes. .Ks to for- mal history, two semester courses are offered in American history and wo:l'l history. Many interesting side lights have been given by pupils bringing in lndian relics, foreign money and war trophies. :Xn interesting talk was given to the classes this year by ex-Congressman H. .X. Barnhart on American con- ditions and on entrance into the XYorld XYar :WIA THEMA TI CS The mathematics department offers a year of beginning algebra, a half year of advanced algebra, a half year of plane geometry and a half year of solid geometry. Beginning algebra classes are under the efficient instruction of Miss lfugate and Miss Shank. Nlr. Rankin conducts the remaining classes. Mr. Rankin has made successful an experimental class in plane geometry which has been trying out the new method that trains the student in studying out the proof himself instead of learning it by rote. The old and new classes have been conducted separately. The new method proved to be the more efficient of the two. JVIANUEL TRAINING The old gymnasium has been transformed into a two-roomed, modern manual training department. XYoodworking machines and other tools have been added to the equipment. The new quarters are well lighted and give plenty of room for the various shop activities. The department offers two years of wood-working and two years of mechanical drawing. The boys are making drafting tables, cases and other furniture to furnish a room that will be used especially for mechanical drawing. There has been much activity in the shops during the year, the boys building for themselves various articles of furniture, such as writing tables, breakfast tables, radio cabinets, rocking chairs, buffets, etc., with many smaller articles. Seventy-two 2-5- 19 f 26 4 ,. ,.9.,,'-...Q Q., -f rp- 1:'5'?'- LATIN There have been six classes in l.atin this year taught by Miss l.ucile Kessler, with a total enrollment of one hundred and fifteen. Besides the regular grammar and reading lessons, the students have made scrap books, illustrating the use of l.atin in advertising, which will be used in the spring exhibit. Latin games have been played that have helped to fix declensions and conjugations in the memory. The upper classes have made Roman machines of war, equipped a Roman legionary soldier, con- structed a miniature Roman camp and made relief maps of Gaul. Interest in the work is shown by the large enrollment in the Latin Club which was or- ganized the second semester. The club published an interesting little paper, Tuba Latina, this spring. The following won places in the County Latin Contest in March: .-Xnna Belle Burkett, first place-Virgil. Katherine Myers. second place-Virgil. Miriam Ciraeber, second placefflst year l.atin. PHYSICS The woik in physics this year has included the usual number of experi- ments. New electric motors, which the department bought unassembled this spring. have furnished an interesting project for the students. who have been busy assembling, winding and building the parts. One interesting trip dur- ing the year was made through the Power Plant. CHEMISTRY Chemistry is made a very practical subject through the laboratory work with Miss Fugate. She emphasizes the experiments that have a practical bearing on every day life. Besides lectures, laboratory, note-books and pro- ject posters, the classes found time to enter several essays in the American Chemical Society Contest. llugh Tobey won the first place in the state U11 the subject Relation of Chemistry to :Xgriculture.', This is the second year in succession that a student has won first place in the state in this contest. Two interesting trips were made by the classes to the Gas and Ice Plants. BIBLE The two semesters in Bible offered in our curriculum are taught by Miss lflett. The first semester covers the Old Testament: the second, the New Testament. Class discussions of various problems have been interesting and helpful this year. Three-minute sermonettes were delivered by the members of the class frequently as part of the assignment. A special Bible class for forty boys. sponsored by the State Y. M. C. LX. was held for several weeks after school. They took the state examination and made a class average of 85'fi. Sixteen of the forty made a grade of 902 or above. This gave our school a creditable showing in the state. Seventy-three , CBIOLOGT The biology classes supplement their text books by bringing in to the laboratory interesting material of various kinds. Fish, turtles, cray fish, clams, frogs and tadpoles have filled the aquarium at different times. Squir- rels and mice have been pets and about thirty beautiful moths have emerged this spring from the cocoons brought into the laboratory by the students last fall. The Flower Calendar Contest and the Seedling Raising project aroused interest as did also the benehcial trip of the class to the Rochester Green Houses this spring. Zoology is taught in the fall, physiology. during the win- ter and botany, in the spring. HOME ECONOMICS This year the home economics department made many pretty garments a11d cooked scores of tempting dishes under the direction of Miss Swan. She has instructed them in the selection and buying of cloth and in the planning and construction of clothes, The girls, after visiting a furniture store and electric shop, planned and furnished a small house. They have made many clever posters on foods and their relation to health. They visited a butcher shop and learned valuable facts about the cuts and selections of meats. They have served the Hi-Y boys and their mothers. the basket ball boys, the School Board and the mothers of the girls in the advanced class. CPHYSICAL TRAINING To be an all-round person, one must have a healthy body, Physical training corrects faulty posture, teaches correct breathing, promotes bodily poise and is an aid to health. XYe wish that more students could become in- terested in this important part of our curriculum. Mr. Powell in addition to basket-ball and track has charge of two physical training classes. one com- posed of girls, the other of boys. The girls' class meets three times a week, the boys, twice a week in the xYlllfll1Cl' Gymnasium for the calisthenic exer- cises. EMUSIC Two-hfths of a credit per semester are offered in orchestra, glee club and chorus. The orchestra practices' faithfully three times a week and has given many interesting programs before the assembly. The Girls' Glee Club with its group of splendid voices has also presented several enjoyable pro- grams and its members have been ever ready to assist in the activities of other organizations. The chorus class, which meets two mornings a week, has devoted several days to musical current events and has also prepared themes on suggested musical subjects. Miss lfdith Thompson, who has suc- cessfully instructed the students in these three divisions of the curriculum, is to be commended for having made these studies so interesting and at the same time instructive. CERT CDEPARTMENT The art department has been a busy and popular room. This year Kliss Cleveland's class was tilled to ovc. Howing with nineteen beginners and three advanced students. Four seniors did excellent work in developing decora- tive lettering and drawings for the Annual. Their theme, the lake. gives in- dividuality to the book, since many of the drawings are adaptations of actual scenes near Rochester. The beginning class has done exceptional work in Seventy-four 19mP stH626 ng, S 'A :sf It ' 15969: Q-s?1f ' applying the rules of color. form, and management to several problems: black printed and hand colored Christmas cards, stencils, lettering, show cards, gift boxes. free hand drawing, and sign painting. Several girls worked out color schemes and hand-painted scarfs and dresses for themselves and other stu- dents. The poster painting shows a nice appreciation of color harmony and balance, and several clever ideas. The class has studied .Xmerican artists and important painters. COMMERCIAL CDSPAR TMENT The Commercial Department has had a very large enrollment this year. Courses have been offered in commemcial arithmetic, shorthand, typewriting and commercial law. The study of commercial law aims to develop in the student's mind a knowledge of his legal rights along' with an attitude of caution and delibera- tion in undertaking business ventures. lt should familiarize him with com- mercial papers and teach him when to call upon a lawyer in order to avoid law suits. A visit to the court while in session was of great interest and of great help in applying the study to real life. Shorthand is a fascinating study to all students who really study it. lt develops an alertness of mind because one must be trained to hear a spoken word: and while the hand writes the correct characters, the mind must re- member a number of words which have been spoken. The goal of first year shorthand is transcriptions with ninety-live per cent accuracy from dictations of seven words a minute. Two credits in typewriting are required for anyone beginning it. ln this way one will not discontinue this subject until he has become moderately efficient. XYhile speed in typewriting is essential, it must not be gained at the expense of accuracy. A number of perfect papers have been turned in for fifteen minute tests from Anna Belle Burkett and Deverl Carr. Thirty-six certificates from the Remington and Underwood Typewriter Companies have been issued this year. The following students have received medals for writ- ing from forty to hfty net words a minute: Velma Fore, Josephine Smith, llonnabelle Coakley, Annabel Noftsger, Mildred Thompson, Beulah Shonk, Irene Fultz, Mercedes Becker, Opal Overmyer, Virginia Emma liarger and .Iuanita Ambler. Anna Belle Burkett and .Iosephine Smith have received medals for writ- ing from fifty to sixty net words a minute and .Xnna Belle llurkett has re- ceived the highest award won this year, a gold medal from the Underwood Company for writing sixty-two net words a minute. lt is the purpose of the bookkeeping course to acquaint the student with the business customs and business practice in general, to interpret accounts, and to understand the basic principle of bookkeeping and accounting. Clar- ity and accuracy of thought, habits of neatness, system, self reliance and hon- esty are stressed. This year a series of standardized tests was given at regu- lar intervals to measure the students' improvement and attainment. At the beginning of the second semester a class of beginning bookkeeping was organ- ized. This will permit these students enrolled to take two semesters of addi- tional work next year. ln the District Commercial Contest held April 24 at Rochester Mildred Thompson won first place in bookkeeping against XYar- saw. This entitled her to go to the State Contest at Muncie May 7th, Seventy-five Seventy-six 'fxxffx V!! f 'cf ff ' ff f I 2 Ky rj X N f cf X fx 3 ' I 3, ,f ' Y 11 nf ,f f ' X W o :V fi 44122414 a H LH f 4195 f f H jl f.. lfy Zy fq f 1 1- L U . gb I H-92 wfffof-L ' J - - H- v i M1 ,,fk 9iiSifA9- N9 f Ev M, 'M 4544. 14 1- TQLETIG5 We're loyal to you, R.

From the start he faced a most difficult task. ln a school noted for its strong' basketball teams he found himself confronted with the strongest schedule in the school's history, and with the exception of one veteran, all his players were young and inexperi- enced. Early season games included such formidable opponents as the State Champions and the runners-up of the 1925 State 'l'onrnament. First results were discouraging' so far as scores were concerned, but the marked improve- ment shown as the season progressed soon won our coach the confidence and admiration of players and fans alike. From a situation that had appeared hopeless a team was developed that commanded the respect of our strongest opponents and placed Rochester among the leading' quintets of the state. Fans and students both are happy to learn that our congenial coach will be with us again next year and all predict that his success will be even greater than it was during the past season.

'l'he game was fast and furious but Rochester held a one point edge at the half. ln the last half. Rochester forged ahead. making victory certain. ,l lowever, the l,aPorte coach put in an entirely fresh line-up and they started a rally. ln the last few seconds l.a Porte made a basket which ended the game, with l.a Porte ahead, 27-23. A great many tears were shed, but the brand of basket ball that our players displayed made us very proud. Rockwell and .Xrnold were picked for the all-regional team, and we feel sure that, had they reached the state tournament, they. as well as the rest of the team. would have made a great showing. SUMMARY OF SEASON During the past basketball season the Zebras have won 11 and lost 9 games. lncluding' the tournaments we have won 16 and lost 10. l'aul Rock- well and Virgil Miller are nearly tied in scoring.

Richland Center 32, Rochester 10 The girls lost their last game, no doubt, due to the rloor which was much smaller and not in as good condition as the local gymnasium. This closed the season. and, though the girls were disappointed in the record, we hope next year they will make a better showing as only three Seniors will be gone. W'e think Miss Fugate did very well with the practically raw material she had. TENNIS .N new sport has entered R. H. S.--tennis! Soon after lllr. Rankin came here to teach, he organized a club and the membership quota was filled. The students took to the new game with enthusiasm. Last fall an invitational XYabash Valley Tennis Tourney was held at Logansport. Four teams competed--Logansport, Kokomo, XVabash and Rochester. Logansport took hrstg Kokomo and Rochester tied for second and third: XYabash, fourth. Matches for this spring were arranged by com- petitors in this tourney. Early this spring the boys put the courts in condition and practiced daily. On May l they met Kokomo and were defeated, four matches to Rochester's two-4-2. Krathwohl, Atkinson, Ketchmark, Conklc and XYhittenberger com- posed the team. The games were close and very exciting. The return match will be played on May 15 at Kokomo. In the spring of 1925 the .Xthletic .Xssociation bought two cups and offered them to the winners of the singles for boys and girls. .Xfter some yery interesting matches, l.ora Sheets won the girls' cup and Jim Atkinson suc- ceeded in defeating Robert Krathwohl for the boys' cup. This spring an- other tourney will be held and the cups awarded again. Any person holding the cttp for three consecutive years may keep it. FIELD CAND TRACK As in basketball, most of last year's track men graduated, so that an en- tirely new team has been developed, with the basket ball letter men, Rockwell, Sheridan, Sriver, and Swartwood, as a nucleus. The weather has not been favorable to track this spring, yet the schedule has been carried out as planned. ln the lirst three meets, Rochester won two, losing the first to l'eru 64-35. The second track meet was with l..ogansport at Logansport, held in a strong wind and rain. Rochester won by score of Sl 4X5-17 UZ. ln the Plymouth meet. Rochester again won 57-42. The track schedule for the season has been: April l7-Peru at Peru. April 24-Logansport at l.ogansport. 'May 1-Plymouth-Etna Green at Plymouth. May 8---XYabash Valley Kleet at Logansport.

TI-IE YELL LEADERS That our team is one of the best and that our coach is worthy of great praise, we all know. But we must not forget the yellow-jerseyed fellows that went through the rythmic, fantastic contortions before the howling basket- ball crowds. To them much credit must be given for our victories, for blim, Hi, and Roy certainly put pep into the games at critical moments. By much drill at practices, they taught us many new yells. XYith ever-present en- thusiasm and line team work, 'lim and lli carried the stellar positions, aided now and then by Roy, who put light into the crowd with his friendly smile, 'l'hc work of the fellows was rewarded for the first time this year by the ,Mh- letic Association, who gave them old gold R's crossed by megaphones.

Dear liditor and Friends: I was very, very pleased to be requested hy your editor, flllivene, to write a lettci for this section of the Manitou Ripples, for, you know. I was only in Rochester nine months. I rather guess the length of time does not matter for I feel that in that short time some very dear friends were made. liven after two year's absence l hear from many students and faculty members, who keep me posted as to school affairs. Because of this, it is not so hard to realize that you used-to-be sophomores are seniors now. You propably remember that I occupied Room 0 and Iinglish, sophomore and fresh- man, was 1ny specialty. Last year, here in Princeton, I had much the same position, but. thinking I'd vary my interests somewhat, I went to school last summer at the Universiey of Minnesota and took a number of history courses to freshen my memory of certain facts, events, and dates, so that I could be an 'fequal pens for some of the juniors and seniors here in modern history. liesides history and linglish classes this year l've had a class in sociology. I've enjoyed it immensely, I am a freshman adviser of a class of over a hundred, .Xt present we are having much fun planning the annual freshman picn'c. In Decatur, 1924, our high school, which was the oldest township high school in the state, burned to the ground. As a result we have a hne new building to go into this fall. Yes, I think I'll return next year. I like the student body very much and the townspeople also. I fear I'm writing too much about I'rinceton, but I ani very happy here. I guess that explains why I've written so extensively on the affairs of Princeton. liven though all this is true, I still have a very warm place in my heart for Rochester and wish to extend greetings and very best of wishes to all who remember Miss Austin of Room 6. Yery sincerely. M.'XRG.'XRITT AUSTIN Frankfort, Ind.. April Zo, 1926 Dear Alumni and Friends: XYhen I received a request from the editor of the Alumni department of the Ripples to say something for the department, I was truly pleased. Away down deep in my heart is a corner that is all Rochester's own, and there is nothing but the happiest mem- ories that center about the school and the four years I spent in it, I believe I can say this not only for myself but also for the greater number of teachers who have served at R, H. S. I frequently think of those with whom I have worked, and l feel that the friendships and interests formed in R. H. S. are of the highest value. Qurs was the companionship of pal with pal, and this, to my mind, is the secret of the spirit which makes Rochester mean so much to you and to me. Many memories, humorous and serious, come to my mind when I recall high school days. I can almost hear the scratching of pens as my seniors diligently U5 labor over A clerk there was of Orenford, also. And I can see the looks of dismay when one of our 1923 class announced that Ilurns' masterpiece was Gray's Elegy. Again I can see the assembly rapt in genuine attention as Mr, Miller reads one of the most inspiring re- wards of a noteswriting campaign. Oftentimes I hear encouraging reports from those whom I have known well in R. II. S. days. and I am sure more good reports are yct to come. To those who have gone out from the old school I would say that we teachers are always interested in you and that your success is our success. To those who are leaving this year. and to those who are yet in school. keep up the record which R, H. S. has always maintained in the past and there can bc no question concerning its success in the future. Yours sincerely. YIERDA KNOX Ninety-three Lila?
