All fwork together to serve as one. So it is in the lives of the students of the Rock Island High School. Each has his small part to play fwhich, fwhen in tune, brings about perfect harmony. In this annual we have as the theme that harmony, divided into three parts.' drama, music, and art. Too often fwe do not stop to realize the part the faculty members play in our school life. It is fwith their help that the strings are con- stantly kept in tune, and to so shofw our appreciation and gratitude, fwe are dedicating this book to the faculty. lVe fwish to express many thanks to Bliss Sara McElhinney, ffrt Supervisory Alice Patterson, zfrt Editorj Emma Weigand, Douglas Murray, and Margaret McCauley, for their splendid work with the art,' and Miss Cora Stoddard for her unfailing efforts as faculty adviser, to direct the progress, remove the difficulties that confront us stay? members, as each has done his bit.

The English course provides for a study of the skill necessary in oral and written expression, as well as giving emphasis to literature and the maintenance of English essentials. Each year a magazine is published containing the best written work done in English classes. Four years of English are required, one year of jour- nalism may be substituted for 11A and 1213, two new courses in senior English. LANGUAGES. Latin, French, German, and Spanish are offered to students. The courses in these languages broaden their minds. Four years of Latin and three of both French and German are given. Only second year Spanish is taught. SOCIAL SCIENCE. European history is offered to all students but only juniors and seniors are eligible for American history, which is required for graduation. Stu- dents may also choose commercial geography, civics, sociology, or advanced sociology which deal with political, business, industrial, and social problems. SCIENCE. Chemistry, physics, biology, and home economics compose this depart- ment. Elementary inorganic chemistry and elementary physics are open to juniors and seniors. Biology is offered to any student. Two years of cooking and two of sewing are taught. These subjects are made attractive and practical by laboratory work in well-equipped laboratories. MATHEMATICS. The mathematics department offers plane geometry in the sophomore year, advanced algebra, and solid geometry in the junior year, and trigo- nometry and college algebra in the senior year. Algebra centers about the study of the equation, formula and graph, geometry, the properties and relations of geometrical figures and solidsg and trigonometry, indirect measurement by the solution of tri- angles. COMMERCIAL. If a student cor1'elates his subjects carefully, he will be pre- pared at graduation for both college and business. Two years of shorthand and two of typewriting are offered to juniors and seniors. One semester of business arithmetic, and three of accounting may be begun in the sophomo1'e year. FINE ARTS. This group adds much to the beauty, culture, and entertainment of school life in providing music, dramatic productions, and art work for the apprecia- tion and aesthetic enjoyment of the students and community. Art, band, glee club, music theory, and speech are taught. MANUAL ARTS. lXIachine shop, mechanical drawing, woodwork, and printing comprise this group. These classes provide a means of developing technical skill and aid in the discovery of special interests and aptitudes. The printing of the entire school system is done in the printing classes. 4 Q I 'Q 1 1 4 4 in -Q 1936 CLASS I-HSTCDIQV The final curtain of the play, VVe and the Three R's, presented by the Clam of IQ36, was rung down Flay 29, 1936, after three unusually successful acts. The plot of the play was the history of the '36 class. Heading the cast for the first act were the wise members, Frances Lindstrom, Eugene Bussard, and Andy Condrack, officers of the sophs. Next on the program such names as illarian Hliller, Erma Bolin, Phyllis Coyne, and Billy Bysinger, ap- pear. They had featured juvenile roles as leaders of the Alpha Club. Virginia Sandberg, the debater, had the convincing part of the play. Lloyd Stropes, Bob Crist, Buck Schroeder, and Kenny Ross had the active part of the play. And thus the first act ends with the Sophomore Party in the form of a barn dance. The second act begins with Forrest Hainline, LeRoy Niillett, and Andrew Con- drack having the leads as the officers in this act. The next thing is that famous interpretation of the Flower Shop by lXIarj VVhisler. Some of the good dramatic parts were taken by Martie Lockwood, Betty Hall, Eleanore Hay, Lawrence Quane, Jerry Dockterman, and Forrest Hainline. Lee lllillett, Qnie Schroeder, and Henry Barkhurst comprise the active parts of this act. Also Don Potter, Romanowski CRorniej, hfluller, Bussard, and VVilkens had leads in this part of the play. This act ends triumphantly with the Junior-Senior Reception, which was a brilliant success. The third and last act of this dramatic performance is at last begun and it is started with a bang lllarie Ternoey, Forrest Hainline, and Pete Simmons start this one. At the beginning of this act, a mock football game is played with lilillett, Nluller, Potter, Ross, Crist, the Barkhursts, Mchffillan, and both Schroeders giving the performance. This act is very important and it gives the members of the class a chance to sum up what they did and to end it in a big way. The dramatic parts in this act were taken by Doug lVfurray, llffary Niartha llurphy, Toby Herin, Carl Dasso, and Bernard Jeffries. Pierre Palmer and Sol Weiner must not be forgotten in speak- ing parts. The three friends are illustrated by Karyn Frank, Rain,' Johnson, and DodieH Hawkins. The beauty of the class is well pointed out in Marizinne Burke. Kenny Russ, Huston Paulsen, Jack Schneider, lWarj Stanley, Dorothy Shaman, George Scherer, lXIary Ellen Fraser, Klargaret Edwards, Bill Edstrom, and lrene Delkfoney also had good roles. The final year is closed with Robert and William Freistat and Erla Williains leading the class in scholastic parts. Jean Totten is singing as the curtain rolls down. The play is over and the class is receiving much applause because the fact that they have made a success of their career is recognized, but it's all over now :ind they only wish they could do it again.

SOP!-IGMORE ATI-ILETICS This is the first year in recent history at the Rock Island high school that the second teams of the school have been devoted entirely to sophomores. This year's sophomore football team was handicapped by the lack of sufficient weight to make it a winning outfit, although the boys played hard in every game on their schedule and displayed a lot of speed and many tricky plays when in possession of the ball. No games were won by this year's squad, but several contests Were- de- cided by the matter of a few points. The team lost twice to Davenport, lVIoline, and East Rloline, and once to Galesburg. The soph basketball team, under the direction of our new coach, Delbert Faber, former Drake University athlete, fared somewhat better than the football squad, al- though winning slightly less than half their games. lVlembers of the team given letters were Jerome Denecker, Dick Hainline, James Nlitchell, Charles Rogers, Carol Schneider, Hans Schubert, Albert Segura, Harold Brown, Rene Duyvejonck, Dick Paul, Le Roy Schladt, and Robert Hecht. Several players who were members of this team during the first part of the year were 'fgraduatedn to the varsity team, therefore reducing somewhat the power the team had during the early winter. GULF Golf is another sport included in the schoolls athletic activity. This yearfs golf team was composed of Kenneth Pirmann, Hershell Paul, Robert Hallgren, and Duane Lundahl. Although it was forced to take a back seat in most of the contests it entered during the year, next season's team promises to be one of the best ever assembled at Rock lsland high school. Last fall the squad experienced bad luck and ended up in fifth place in Northwest Conference competition. Several matches have been planned for this spring, and the boys will get plenty of practice and experience for next year. llr. J. R. Clark, director for athletic teams, coaches our golf team. 29 Barbara Ahl Bertha Aims Ruth Albrecht Katherine Allbritton Philip Alonzi Harold Anderson James Anderson Junior Anderson Vivian Anderson John Bacom Silva Bailey Dorothy Ann Barker Dick Barnett Kathryn Barnett Don Barth Charles Barton Mary Jane Becker Fred Behnken Marian Behrens Glenn Beinke Anna Bell Edward Betke Don Betts Dorothy Bishop Dorothy Black Carolyn Blecker Anita Blixt Robert Boot Albert Boxerman Janet Boyd Owen Boyd Roy Boyd John Bragdon Ellen Branberg Betty Branch May Brankenburger Chester Brandt Victor Breckenridge George Briggs Lawrence Brown Ruth Caffery Marie Caleo George Campana Dorothy Campbell JUNIORS Anna Carlson Sylvia Carlson Esther Carp Robert Carse Sylvia Caulpetzer Norma Chambers Dorothy Channon Harry Cherry Ellamae Churchill Betty Clark Elbert Collin Harold Collin Velma Conover Albert Crawford' LeRoy Crawford King Cutkomp Marie Dasso Charles Davis Joy Delp Mildred De Meyer Mildred Deubert Gladys Dierikx Betty Jane Dixon Jack Doran Charles Dort Dorothy Downing Jack Downing Bernard Downs Bob Driggs Ovid Duncan Alois Duyvejonck Esther Eckhardt Harold Edwards John Edwards Junetta Eggers Darlyne Elliott Doris Elliott Rosemary Eng Thomas Eng Glenn Epperly Burdette Erickson Edith Eshelman Alta Evans LaVerne Evans Helen Farr Marjorie Fort James Forte Arlene Frank Carma Frizzell Helen Gabel Esther Galusha George Gartelos Herschel Gellerman Geraldine Gendler John Gerdes Bernice Gerlich Albert Giles John Gilluly Leonard Golrlsmith Howard Gotthardt Carl Gravitt Audrey Gregory Lauretta Greiner Adella Gundeliinger Adele Hagerman Harry Hall Robert Hallgren Glen Hallin Rowena Hankins Kenneth Hanne Vivian Hansen Virginia Hanson Charles Harrison VVilliam Hartman Ruth Hauerwas Clarence Hays Gertrude Heber Glen Heber Sidney Heinze Evelyn Henry Aileen Herbert Kathryn Herbert Evelyn Hingstrum Lois Hofer Dorothy Holcomb Thelma Holland Robert Householder Verrie Howard Hugo Huddleston Dorlyn Jacobs Alfred Jaques Merwin Jensen Donald Johnson Jeanne Johnson VVayne S.

Professor lwclntyre, Forrest Hainline, and Mrs. Mclntyfre, Betty Ann Hall, were faced with many problems concerning their son George, and daughter Terry, played by Charles Harrison and Rosalie Williams respectively. The big party, involving difficulties with lllrs. Patterson and her daughter Elsie, portrayed by Nlartie Lockwood and lylary hlartha Nlurphy, was very humorous. The boys of the neighborhood were pleasing, played in their comic roles by Lloyd Stropes as Brian, Douglas Murray as Dutch, Frank Sattizahn as stuttering Omar, James Wiedenhoeft as Hal, and Richard Nye as Pete. Henrietta Herin played the part of Prudence Darling, who seemed to have a way with the boys until her technique was adopted by the other girls in the play who were Patty, played by Jean Totten, Jane, by lllarjorie VVhisler, and hliriam, by Virginia Sandberg. The burly traffic officer Was capably interpreted by Jerome Dockterman. Audrey Gregory, portraying Vivian, appeared on the scene just as George, Charles Harrison, was resorting to the friendship of a dog after losing his girl Prudence. George Illflntyre .........

Sylvia Caulpetzer JUNIOR CLASS PLAY DOUBLE DOOR The juniors surely did themselves up proud this year. Their big stage success, Double Door,', was far from being mediocre, in fact, it was the best Junior play yet to be given in R. I. H. S. Sylvia Strum, as Victoria Van Bret, was the most hateful aunt that we have ever seen. Her hypnotic power over the whole Van Bret family was very good until Anne Darrow and Dr. Sully came along and spoiled her plan. The mysterious double door was not disclosed until 'fViclcyl' put the half-million dollar pearls away in safe-keeping and almost scared Caroline Van Bret to death. Rip and Anne made a very charming newly married couple that suffered under Vicky's reign. Avery, Telson, VVilliam, and Louise composed the smooth-running staff of serv- ants in the Van Bret house. Avery, played by Letha VVright, overcame her handicap and portrayed her part very well. Louise proved to be quite flirtatious with Lambert, the detective. Dr. John Sully was a very loyal friend to Anne and Rip, even after Vicky tried to involve him in an unpleasant affair. The family lawyer and ilfr. Chase from Tiffany's jewelry store were very dignified elderly gentlemen. This was an outstanding case and it had an equally outstanding director, Miss Peterson, who got out of bed to come to the big night of the Junior play. Cart I'ir'toria Van Bret .... .....

J ames VViedenhoeft 36 J SENIQR CLASS PLAY THE MUSIC MASTER The stage production, The Music Master, given by the Senior class, hit a new high peak in the dramatic productions of Rock Island High School. The play was presented in a most charming and sympathetic manner and leaves a beautiful and lasting memory of the class of 1936. VVhen a girl comes from the other world, uptown, to seek him out, the mere music teacher of the neighborhood, for her poor protege, when he dimly suspects in her the daughter that he has been seeking all these yearsg and when he gropes and gropes toward the vague tie between them that she, too, feels a little, we learn the purpose-to find her-for which he has endured and cherished much. VVhen he finds out that Helen really is his daughter, her marriage to Beverly Cruger is near and he keeps his secret. Barwig sees the marriage and is sure of her happiness. He prepares to go back to Leipsig. But on her wedding day, Helen has wrung the secret from the man who poses as her father, so she comes to carry her real father, Barwig, off to happiness. First honors go to Forrest Hainline who played the title role with unusual kindli- ness and understanding and brought tears to many eyes, and admiration from all. Betty Hall played a sweet and lovable Helen. Comedy aplenty was supplied by ,Timmy Wil- liams, Poons, and Mary Martha Murphy, Jenny, the loversg Jerry Dockterman and Kenneth Russ in their dialect partS of musicians, Jeanne Baird as the old maid boardinghouse keeper, and Madeline Hansgen and Henrietta Herin as the giggling twins.

Alice Patterson TUNE IN Ladies and gentlemen, this is station WTNT, Rock Island. I would like to de- scribe what-.is being presented here. The scehe of Tune In is laid in this radio station. Jean Totten, the telephone operator, and Bob Householder, advertising manager of WTNT, are that wayu about each other, and Jean, Mitzi to you, is trying to get her big chance on the radio. By the way, she really gets it later on in the production. Mrs. Kroggins, wife of the codfish king, has us fusing a vulgar slang expressionj Hrolling in the aisles. Mr. Kroggins, a very henpecked husband when Mrs. Kroggins is around and a big business man any other time, is trying to sell his kippered cod- fish. Jean Kroggins and Joe Brown, whose outstanding duet in The lNIoon Was Old, are also very fond of each other. Tilly, lVIilly, and Billy, the sister team, are very well liked for their splendid harmony in Lights Outl' and 'The Beautiful Lady in Blue. There is also lllr. Archibald Throckmorton who would like to see Mr. Brown, but lVIr. Brown doesnlt want to see him. To give you just a little idea of what is coming, Mr. Archibald Throckmorton finally sees Mr. Brown and with some very interesting results. The announcer for this operetta is J. Bottomley-Binks who thrills the audience. 'fDynamo Dave and Bob are busy around the studio aranging programs and work- ing in the control room. The villain, Mr. Lysander Phipps, is very cleverly fooled in the second act, which helps to make this operetta more humorous. An outstanding feature of the operetta is the Kroggins Hourn when Chester Sheldon is featured in the solo-, and also Mitzi. The Kiddies chorus and The Gate Is Qff the Hinges are very humorous numbers. Two dances are presented: a gypsy dance given by Madge Hansgen and Jean Totten, and a 'iDolls Delightl' dance by Helen Richtman and Audrey Gregory. A 12-piece orchestra accompanies the cast and the chorus and, of course, the four pianists, Barbara Fry, Dick Langhinrichs, Betty Gdell and Gladys Dierikx. Now I'll turn you over to WTNT's star announcer, -I. Bottomley-Binks. It's a good per- formance, folks. Good evening. Mitzi ......................... jean Totten M1's. Kroggim .... ......

The Girls' Hi-Y victory was marked by a big loving cup. Their hilariously funny burlesque of the m l d A' ' ' e o rama, Il Advertiso, took the first prize. A'Pyramus and Thisbef' the Latin club skit, politely grabbed second place. The Frolic came to a grand climax with the main show starring 'iPetel' and his stooges. Juliet Shutts and i'RomeoU Peterson were simply marvelousl' in their great love scene. Al'o ' l d d ' s inc u e on the program was a torch singer and '4Pete and his tricks. Two outstanding seniors, Betty Ann Hall and Leroy Wlillett - . Y i , were voted as the most popular girl and boy in R. I. H. S. Everybody had a perfectly swell time and we all went home with stiff necks and tired eyes. .J 315- X K! 545 MMU: k9 39 SOPI-IOMGRE FALL PARTY Babies must play, and play they did at the Sophomore Fall Party. To the sway of a rhythmic orchestra the dancers waltzed and fox-trotted. The music must have been magic for the little Sophies behaved like dignified Seniors all through the entertaining program. Dorothy Howe, Liela Anderson, and Helen Passmore, who took second place in the amateur contest, vocalized harmoniously on the popular songs of the day. A very amusing skit, Radio Recipesf, was presented by Leota llae Harris, Theresa VVeigand, and Zeivel Harris. Boys always wondered what girls would do if they played football and they found out from the musical selection, Ulf Girls Played Footballf, sung by eight girls. Last but not least came lVIargaret Hoare, a songhird, and Rene Duyvejonck, another Fred Astaire. James Haymaker was master of ceremonies and nothing that he said pleased the dancers more than the word, Refreshments.l' Punch and sandwiches were eaten, as only Sophomores can eat. They went home tired but happy. SOPHOMORE SPRING PARTY mln the spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love. But this spring all the sophomores' thoughts were turned to their spring party, which was well worth it. Each person had a movie star pinned on him and a prize was given to Mary Bysinger, who guessed the most names. Prizes in dancing were won by Dick Langhinrichs and Ellen Spinsby, lWary Bysinger and Sterling Vance. After such strenuous dancing everyone had Worked up quite an appetite and the refreshments were most welcome. 40 JUNIOR-SENIGR FALL PARTY Hel-lo, everybodyg this is Keyhole Katie, the Kibitizing Kleptoinaniac at the Junior-Senior masquerade party. VVhen I first arrived, a young surgeon cut twenty- hye cents out of me. Then the nrst thing I saw was a nurse at the top of the stairs. VVouldn't the hospitals have a rushing business if all nurses were as pretty as she is? The grand march was going full sway with that tough guy, 'Doc' Hainline, and Letha VVright leading it. Herrete, Dorothy Sandberg, was awarded the prize for the prettiest costume Cyou should have seen herlj and that great big sissy, Leo Osborne, cried until he got the only prize left-the one for the funniest costume. Gee, l've never seen so many different costumes. There's a 'Hoot mon' over there with his knees sticking out from under his kilts. Oh, Nlr. Chef, what a big hose you havel The better to smell the soup, my dear. Those old-fashioned girls had better look out because those pirates look mighty blood-thirsty and the sailors look daring. Those little girls with their lollipops should be home in bed, but l bet they sneaked out. Even the teachers are in costumel I bet they were afraid that they wouldn't get in if they werenlt in costume. There are dancers of all kinds, shapes, and sizes, and to top it all off, a Napoleon! Peter Piper Simmons, the master of ceremonies, introduces Dorothy Jean Potter, one of our little dancers. Then 'Ay tank ay go home' Sylvia Strumls reading comes next. 'Little Nellf a real 'melerdrama' features the city-slicker villain CBoolj, the old man, dear 'Little Nellf the 'consterbulef and, of course, the mortgage. 'RiCllC1'SOIl7S Rhythm Boys' are furnishing the music and then comes the 'grand trek' for the eatsfl 4.1 SENIOR HQNQR ROLL Seventy-three seniors, by maintaining a three-and-a-half-year average over 88 per cent, have been placed on the Class Honor Roll.

Led by Forrest and Richard Hainline, the latter being Tri-City champion and third ranking junior player in the nation, the team swept away everything in sight. None of the numerous matches with op- posing schools were lost. In the first annual Northwest Conference tennis meet held last fall in Kewanee, the Islanders scored an overwhelming victory over all other teams of the conference in both the men's and women's divisions, winning first places in all events. The menls singles title was captured by Forrest Hainlineg the men's doubles by Dick Hain- line and Bill Freistatg the womenls singles by Jean Totteng and the women's doubles by Frances Lindstrom and Betty Clark. Bob Freistat and Evelyn Schmitz were alternates. New interest has been attracted to the game of tennis at school, as shown by the teams being composed of twenty-eight players in all. This interest may be traced to our new tennis coach, I. Hervey Shutts, chemistry and physics teacher. Coach Shutts was also in charge of scheduling matches. During the tennis season the team made numerous journeys to various cities, play- ing high school representatives there. Other contests were played on the Stadium Courts in Rock Island. All matches were won by the Islanders. The winners of the annual Rock Island high school tournament were as fol- lows: In the boys, singles, Forrest and Richard Hainline were finalists, and Bob and Bill Freistat semihnalists. The boys' doubles was won by the Hainline brothers, second place by the Freistat brothers, and third place by Lawrence Magnusson and Ralph Syrett. Jean Totten copped the girls' singles title, Betty Clark was second, Frances Lindstrom third, and Erla VVilliams fourth. Frances Lindstrom and Loraine Johnson defeated Erla Willizzms and Evelyn Schmitz to place first in the girls, doubles. , 43 FOQTBALI. Although outweighed in nearly every game on its 1935 schedule, the Rock Island high school football team flashed plenty of speed and deception throughout the season to more than offset the lack of poundage. The Islanders rang up a total of five victories while suffering the loss of the same number of games, and a group of those were lost by the margin of a few points. The team started the season off with three straight victories, defeating Sterling, Franklin High QCedar Rapidsj, and St. Joe of Rock Island. The victory over the Irish made the Rock Island gridders City Champions. The team was blanked in its last four games, however, failing to score a point in any of them, although all were good games and closely contested. The apex of the season was reached when Rock Island scored a moral victory over a powerful East llfoline eleven. Although the score was against them, 6-O, the Islanders outgained and outclassed the heavy East KIoliners in every department except the final score. The co-captains, Robert Crist and Henry Barkhurst, were the mainstays of the team's forward wall, while Buck Schroeder and Kenneth Ross were the leading ground-gainers in the backfield. Only a few of the starting eleven will return next fall to engage in another season of warfare, since most of the members will be lost by graduation. 44 BASKETBALL This year's basketball team, although winning only a few of its games, displayed plenty of the old Rock Island fight. Only one senior remained on the team through- out the entire schedule, since Coach Greene composed his starting five of juniors and sophomores, with the exception of Captain Orin Schroeder, who graduated in mid- year, and Andy Condrack, Although the team didn't have much chance against the much taller opponents it encountered, Coach Greene is planning on the boys to go to the state tournament next year, since all except Andy Condrack of this season's squad will return. The high mark of the season was reached when Rock Island took second place in the consolation division of the Pontiac Invitational Tournament, having lost in the first round of the main event to Johnson City. In the District Tournament the Islanders won fourth place, losing to East lVIoline in the regular contest, and Hillsdale in the consolation game. Rock Island was also City Champion by virtue of its victory over St. Joseph's high. The score was 30420, in favor of us. The playing members of the team this year were: Captain Orin Schroeder, guard, Julius Romanowski, guard, Black, center, Don Lee, center, Kenneth Hanne, forward and guard, Robert IXIiller, forward, YVallace Kerler, forward, Don Tufts, center, and Andrew Condrack, forward. 45 l TRACK So far this season, the track team has experienced unusual success in dual meets with other schools and in other meets in which a group of schools competed. The team is well balanced in almost every department, and is looking forward to placing in the state tournament. ln Northwest Conference competition, the Islanders placed second, a few points behind Galesburg, the winner, which had an exceptionally strong team this year. Rock Island has succeeded in defeating two of her bitterest rivals, lloline and East llfloline, by large margins. Coach Kimmel, who has always been noted for turning out strong track teams at Rock Island high school, should again be praised for his work with this yearls squad. Although the team has not broken many records, Mr. Kimmel and the athletes have been on the long end of most of the scores. llfembers whose work has been outstanding so far are: Lloyd Stropes, high and low hurdles, Frank llluller, high and loxw hurdles and broad jump, Kenneth Ross, IOO and 220-yard dashes, Loyal VVilkens, mile, Bob Crist, shot-put, discus, Rom- anowski, pole vault, Gene Bussard, broad jump, Don Potter, dashes, and Henry Barkhurst, 440-yard dash. Donald Potter, dash man, captained the track team this year. 46 E N P x CALENDAR SEPTEMBER Wham! Bang! Labor Day and the husky gridders of R. I. H.

As far as the eye could see the pioneer trail was marked by a cloud of dust. Settlers were pouring into the hunting grounds of Black Hawkls Sacs and Foxes -settlers from New England and the Mid- dle Atlantic states, augmented by mem- bers of the second generation of pioneer farmers who had settled Ohio and Indiana. It was an amazingly beautiful and fer- tile countryg for miles and miles on either side of the trail the rolling prairie ex- tended, a green, wavy sheet of land which tempted the travelers to end their long journey and make their home. But the emigrant wagons passed on- on toward the timber lands. From earlier pioneers the word had passed back to the eastern states: 'Beware of the prairie lands. In the timber lands building ma- terial, fuel and fencing are easy to getg in the prairie lands no plow will work aft- er the first breaking. No plow will worki'-that was warning enough for every pioneer seeking to es- tablish a farm. One might well afford to haul logs for miles to a farm on the rich prairie, but how could one farm Where a plow would not work? So the wide reach- es of timber along the large and small streams rang with the Hchick-chack of the axe and droned with the hum of the saw, as pioneers established their homes, while the primeval silence pervaded the prairies. What a change was to take place within a few short years! Already John Deere in his little frontier blacksmith shop had solved the problem of plowing the black prairie soil. From early in the morning until late at night he was busy at his anvil making the steel plows which he had in- vented. Soon his new industry Was to ex- pand into larger and larger John Deere factories, producing in great quantities plows that scoured. Then the once-spurned rich prairie soil came into its own as the world's greatest producer of food for man- kind. SK if 44 The prestige gained and held by John Deere plows up through the years of America's great agricultural development applies today to the complete line of John Deere farm equipment-prestige due to continued growth of the long-established belief among farmers that a John Deere gives much more than a dollar's Worth of performance for every dollar spent in purchasing it.
