S ecrelary and Treasurer EHITIIHIAL In 1789 the Northwest Territory was organized and became part of the United States. Since 1939 marks the one-hundred and fiftieth anniversary of this terri- torial organization, the Annual Board chose to use this celebration as a never-to-be-repeated basis for their 1938-1939 MILESTONE. After selecting this Sesquicentennial celebration as the basis for the annual, the girls began to do a little re- search work. The outcome of this work Was the Writing of numerous stories and essays which pay tribute to some of the early organizations and families who were pioneers in and near Cincinnati. However, the annual also contains literature concerning modern times, thereby doing honor to 1939 as Well as 1789. The College Preparatory School for Girls Was a pioneer in the education and preparation of Women for college. We hope that the succeeding classes will carry on the schoolls excellent traditions, and will themselves ex- emplify all that is fine and good in life and education, thereby proving themselves Worthy of the school they attend. l61 IIIfI I I I I I I , I I I I I I I I I I r I I I I I I I I I I X I Ad!!

With these words, I wish to pay tribute to the memory of my fellow classmate, PATRICIA ANN ASLOAN Miss Stewart spoke to us last week of nnobilityw and hoped we would learn what it meant to be noble and live up to the definition. Patty was absent that day, but she didn't need to learn the definition -she was Hnoblew. Her courage and gentle kindness will, I hope, inspire us all to be true noble- womeng and I hope that her death will not have been in vain. Let us strive to make this a happier world because she, even for so short a time, passed our way. I grieve for her but- c'Yet even in mernory's dwindling afterglow, a glory lingers, though the years drift by, like sunset radiance when the sun has Hedn. -A CLASS NIATE NIE UHIANI l32l LITERATURE fm C -r-G-S. 37 C SS X X. s mms ,SSQM X Fwy ,er Q ., in Q, v is -rv t 1 3 .f .Z.

Their houses were made of thin sticks and little trees bent over and tied together, with bark over the frame. They grew corn, beans, pumpkins, and squash. They wore clothes made of deerskin. The men made dugout canoes by cutting down a big tree. They built a fire in the log and then took a stone and scraped out the inside. ln the evening they wrapped themselves in robes made of skins and lay down on piles of furs. The waves fell quietly against the shore. S ir THE MANHATTAN VILLAGE WE MADE One day at school we made a Manhattan Indian Village on the sandbox. The village was a group of huts made of twigs and brown paper. We made the lndians out of clothespins and dressed them in crepe paper. We made some clay pots. We also made some canoes out of clay. We used twigs to make a rack for drying meat, and for meat we used small scraps of brown paper. Then we got some pine twigs to represent trees and arranged them around the village. Some of the lndians were in canoes and some of them were drying the meat or cooking at the campfires.

Jane and Sue had just gotten in from church. NLet's go on a picnic todayf, said Jane. HPlease may we go, mother? Finally their mother consented. After everything was ready, they set out after lunch for the beach. They had planned to take a swim first and then have their supper there. After waiting a while after lunch they got into their bathing suits and went in. They found it fun, but they also found there was a big undertow. After swimming all day they got ready for their supper. HPlease, Sue, while you gather some wood, couldn't l swim a while longer?,, said Jane. MAII right, but donit forget, don't go out farf' While Sue was away, the tide came in. Jane did not care, for she went out farther and farther. All of a sudden she realized how far she was from shore. A big wave was coming, too. If she did not swim away, she surely would be crushed against the rock. But she couldnit swim in, and the wave was getting nearer and nearer! 'I0hI l wish Sue would come. lf only l could swim in. Suiddenly she decided to dive through it. She did, but she was much farther out and nobody was around. The undertow was getting the best of her. What was that coming down the beach? lt was Sue! HJ-lelpl Help! screamed Jane. Sue saw her, but she was running away. Surely she could not be deserting her. Sue was running for help for she knew she was not a good enough swimmer to save someone. The last thing Jane saw was two people running down the beach. Then every- thing went black for Jane. Slowly but surely, she opened her eyes. By that time a crowd had gathered. '4What happened?'7 asked one. 46Why did you swim so far? asked another. All Jane wanted was to go home. That was the most exciting adventure Jane CVCY had- ANN VAIL, Fifth Grade i' INTERMEDIATE PRIZE DRAWING X 6: L :Hll!! Y - f-14 l1i'i W W Q W , .

Fifth Grade l45l THE IXTH GRADE A TRIP TO WLW The Fifth and Sixth Grades took a field trip to the WLW plant and studios. It was quite interesting to see how the radios were made. It would be rather difficult to explain how the radios were madeg so I will just tell you about the main things. The radios were put on a table which moved along slowly. The women who put it together, put in their respective pieces and then put the radio back on the table so it could go on to other women who had more parts to fit in. After going through the factory we went on to see how broadcasting is done. We saw the uHot Stovei' program. It was a Hill Billyl' program. Then we saw them broadcast uMid Streamf, which is a serial story. We enjoyed WLW very much. DOROTHY MEYER, Sixth Grade I 46 I IHI IIIII IH IIII III THAT WAS WILLIE One bright day I decided to go and visit a neighbor. Unfortunately, this person was the mother of a gay, playboy chap by the name of Willie Green about whom I had been hearing unpleasant gossip. I had never seen this boy and I did not believe all the things I had heard about him, but anyway I went prepared for anything. , ' strangely as-if a-eyel-enc ' through and then somebody had tried to push things together. I didnit mention the fact to Mrs. Green who. at the precise moment of observation. entered the room. As you have probably never made the acquaintance of Mrs. Green, I shall take time to tell you something about her. She is a tall, gaunt woman who always has the look of sleepless nights in her face. QI suspect Willie of being the cause of this.I I had been told that she was a widow. She and XVillie and Willieis sister Peggy had come to our town about five years before. As Mrs. Green entered the room, she greeted me wearily: MGood afternoon, Mrs. Tapley. Won't you sit down and chat with me for a short time?I' MThank you very much. I just dropped in to see how you were getting alongf, said I, honestly hoping I wouldnit have to stay long. I had come only to find out, if possible, whether the gossip about Willie was true. I also wished I could see him. 4'What have you been doing with yourself lately?', said Mrs. Green, awkwardly trying to start a conversation. 'IWell, this morning when I went to market, I met Mrs. Canniff, who told me a strange story which took place in this very housef' Such was our conversation for the next fifteen or twenty minutes. Suddenly the front door crashed open and in flounced a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years of age. His hair was most untidy and he was the playboy type. He was extremely handsome, and didnlt look a bit like Mrs. Green. Before I could get a word in to ask who he was, he burst out in a stream of questions: uMom, can I borrow the car and, say, Mother, is it okay if I stay out late tonight? Please can I, Mom? And, say, Pegs wants me to drive her to Shelby and, please have my dress suit ready for tonight. Then without giving Mrs. Green a chance to say anything he raced upstairs. Then from overhea-d issued loud bangings and rattles. Then thump, thump and a door banged. Silence followed for a minute or two and then Willie came hurrying in, in completely new attire. He gave his mother a quick kiss and without another word dashed out, slamming the door on his way. At last complete and utter silence reigned. Now before you, you see the worries of a mother of a son of fifteen or sixteen. I had never before believed a mother had such troubles. For the next few minutes neither of us spoke. Finally, I asked Mrs. Green, who looked wearier than ever, if the boy was Willie. Sinking back in her chair, with a sigh she murmured: Yes, that was Willie . . .

FRANCES GRAYDON, E ighzh Grade I 50 I INTERMEDIATE PRIZE STORY An Exciting Story As the sun slowly ascended, the forest became alive with noise. Squirrels leaped from tree to tree and birds quarreled over bits of food. A stag stood motionless in a clover field, feeding on the clover. Every now and then he raised his head restlessly. Suddenly he was alert. ln the distance was the faint baying of some hounds. Instantly he wheeled around, leaped the fence, and bounded into the woods. Just as his stately form vanished from sight, two hounds and an airedale crawled through the fence at the far side of the field, and soon were on the deer scent. After a mile of running his heavy antlers weighed heavily on his head. He paused and faced the wind. The dogs were still half a mile away. He ran towards them until within a quarter of a mile of them, turned, and raced towards the right. When the hounds came to the hreak in the trail, they were confused and started circling to the right. Finding the way ahead they ran forward. The stag lying concealed in some bushes waited, listening. Soon he heard the hounds coming back. The stag was tired and headed towards the lake. Reaching its edge he plunged in. Half way across he looked back to see the dogs starting across, the airedale in the lead. As he neared the bank, he was gasping for breath, but he rushed on. Reaching a clearing he encountered a herd of does. Plung- ing among them he hoped to confuse the dogs by mixing his scent with theirs. The does scattered in every direction. The stag raced on. When the dogs reached the clearing, after a moment's hesitation they found the scent of the buck and rushed on. As the buck bounded blindly on, he suddenly reached a rock wall. Halt- ing just in time to avoid colliding into it he realized only too late that he was cornered. Just then the dogs appeared, running low to the ground. As they saw their quarry facing them, his legs apart and his breath coming in short gasps, they gave a triumphant yelp of victory and rushed forward. The first hound was lifted high in the air on the buck's antlers, thrown, and then trampled to the ground. At this exhibition the other two dogs drew back and stood watching their victim and barking loudly. Suddenly the aire- dale dashed forward and snapped at the buck's legs. He was quick, but the buck was quicker. The dog received the same treatment as his companion. At this the other dog let out a yelp and rushed home, defeated. The stag looked after him, shook his antlers, snorted, pawed the ground, and van- ished into the woods. JOAN LITTLEFoRD, Eighth Grade Whoa., 193 9 I51l HONORABLE MENTION The Mountain Lake Sanctuary and Singing Tower Situated in the center of Florida, the Sanctuary is a natural halt for birds passing north and south, or crossing from the Atlantic to the Gulf of Mexico. Bok Tower, often called the uSinging Tower, is on top of Mt. Iron, and is surrounded by beautifully planted grounds where hundreds of birds make their homes every year. Mr. Bokls reasons for building this sanctuary are due to his ancestors. Many years ago the Dutch government entrusted the care of a dangerous sandbar off the Dutch coast to his grandfather. It Was infested with pirates, and was absolutely barren of all vegetation. Nevertheless, order was not only established here but more. His grandfather was a great lover of beauty and by his own art and persistence changed this sandbar into an island of rare beauty, where birds rested on their way across the North Sea. Many people, such as poets and artists, came here for inspiration. The message left by his grandfather umake you the world a bit more beautiful and better because you have lived in it,77 became Mr. Bok's thought throughout his life in America. But he did not find a place in which to really realize his grand- father's message until he had seen the spot where Bok Tower now stands. He felt that this mountain, once worshiped by the lndians of Florida, who used to meet here every spring to reverence the Great Spirit, was the place to establish a sanctuary for birds and humans. The Tower rises to a height of two hundred and five feet, where, by gradu- ally tapering lines, it becomes octagonal and is but thirty-seven feet wide. Around the top are panels of roses and palms, and its pinnacles are in the shape of herons. The detailed carvings encircling the Tower are of pelicans, herons, and many other Sanctuary birds. The huge sundial carved on the south side of the Tower shows the longi- tude and latitude of lron Mountain. lt is known as an uErect Declining Dial as it stands vertically at an exact right angle with the surface of the earth. Surrounding the dial are twelve figures of the Zodiac and their an- cient mythological characters. Except for the original pines, practically all the planting has been brought to the Sanctuary since nineteen twenty-three. Over one-half of it has been collected from the wilds, and much of it was found within a radius of twenty miles of the Sanctuary. The fifty-three acres of beautifully planted grounds entirely cover Mt. Iron, which is supposed to be the highest point in Florida. JANE GOODYEAR, Eighth Grade W afm, 193 Q f52l HIGH SCHOOL PRIZE STORY Windy Hill Standing in the dim old hallway, Robert F arquharson, a tall, heavily built, dark young man, suddenly knew, with sickening certainty, what had caused the turmoil that lately so dominated his usually high spirits. With a clutch- ing fear he realized what had made him wander through dark, bleak halls to the door before him. The Farquharson family, an old and formerly wealthy one, living in the north of Ireland, had known for some time that their youngest son had . Hisli'rrot-hers felt that this younger man, of an uncertain temperament and a large amount of determination, would make himself, if allowed, a discordant note in their midst. Hence his approaching departure was viewed by them, with an air of calm complacency. But standing with the cold air from the window chilling his back, and listening to the ceaseless rushing of the wind around the rugged old corners of Windy Hill, this youngest son of the Farquharson clan, felt a passion of love, and kinship for his home that for the moment crowded out the fears and doubts that rushed through his troubled mind. He saw with amazing clarity why he had been afraid to leave this land, this house, these brothers. They were all a part of his individuality. Strong as he was, he could not throw them aside and step forth unchanged into a new life. With an im- petuous motion he pushed open the door and walked, with a defiant air into the room beyond. A small bright eyed woman smiled up at him, and motioned to a chair by the fire. ul wondered how long you and your haverings would go on outside my door, she said. This small, quick woman had the power to make any of her numerous sons ill at ease by her shrewd perception, and rather uncomfortable wit. Robert, no exception, moved restively in his chair and finally pulled himself together for the effort he was about to make. Clearing his throat, he proceeded: HlVlother I have been meaning to talk to you about going awayf' Here he looked up to see what effect his statement had had, and was rather pained to see that she kept a steady, calm countenance. He faltered and went on. Wiafm, 193 Q I53I 4'You know ever since father died and Nigel became head of the house, I knew l had to gofi 4'And now the time has come, you feel you can,t,7' said the quiet voice, putting into words the source of all his misery. Looking at her with a queer sense of shame, Robert answered in a low voice. '6Yes, that is it, somehow my whole life is wrapped up in Windy Hill, in Ireland. I seem to have just realized that all the things I know are connected with itf, An even voice from the dusk beyond the firelight, prompted him with the very words his reason had so often spoken to him. uOthers have done itfi Losing her calm untroubled manner, his mother suddenly became intense. Leaning toward him she spoke with fierceness. Hlreland's decadent, old, our family, others, all around us are people who are leaving, people who have been here longer than we. You go to this new country and make your- self another Windy Hill. Carry our name and traditions into a new land, and when you've settled I'll come and help you live, for I love you best of all my sonsf' The last delivered with a sudden departure from her fierce manner, with a gentleness seldom displayed to her sons, silenced and de- lighted the young man. He could only look at her with joy in his eyes. Finally he ventured, uBut what of the others and our home here?,, His mother smiled ruefully and said. 4'Our house won't stand long now. Since your father died, I've known that, your brothers even now are begin- ning to split up. But you are my son, you've my temperament, hot headed and intolerant of discipline. You could never spend your life here, ruled by a brother. As you grew older you would always blame me for not mak- ing you go. America is drawing men such as you from all over the world, adventurous, enterprising men who are seizing the opportunities that such a wild, free land has to off er and making themselves rich. You will be the one to carry the honor of the family into foreign places. Do you see now what you can be? Will you go?', She had made him at last come face to face with the decision he must make, and slowly, but surely she was drawing from him the answer that they both knew to be the best. He knew that he had to say yes. He knew how hard it would be. Perhaps it would prove too hard, but he stood up smil- ing, and pulling his mother to her feet he said, HI'll go and be a success, but you,re coming to help me live and make a new Windy Hillf' With perfect understanding his mother smiled up at him, yet she knew the agony of feeling he was going through and was full of pity. A peasant toiled up the steep road which led to Windy Hill, panting he W mm, 193 9 l54l stopped, brushed the sweat from his Horid face and gazed at the sprawling old house on its green hill. Its quiet strength must have awakened to the mind of the man many of the bitter stories of lrelandls numerous woes. To him it suggested all the incidents that comprised lreland's long and tur- bulent existence. Things that would never be tales to him, but always .a history of his country written in the blood of his fathers. Suddenly he looked old and bitter. Drawing himself up he toiled on up the uneven path, cursing the English with a tired vehemence under his breath. Young Robert Farquharson coming down the same path, turned on his horse for the last time, and resolutely settled down in the saddle. The peasant greeted the young master and thought irreverently how young he looked to enough for the likes of him, so why should the gentry be after leaving it? Strange to say, the same thought was running through the head of the young- est Farquharson, as he and the horse moved with an easy rhythm down the familiar path. A PART II The evening quiet was suddenly broken by the dull thuds of an approach- ing horse. A melee of bays went up from a pack of welcoming hounds who were stationed on the long verandahs. And up the long avenue of dark old trees a man came, urging his weary horse into a final burst of speed. As he slid down stiHiy from the saddle, he noted for the first time, the house at which he had arrived. His mud-bespattered, weary face lit up with an in- credulous smile and he hastened his steps toward the open door from which lights, voices and the smell of venison issued. To the homesick Southerner, this white plantation house in the 1806 wilds of the North, seemed a gift from God, raised for his special benefit. As he stepped from a pool of light, which lay on the flagged porch, he seemed instantly absorbed by the scene which lay beyond. In the enormous cold hall he hesitated, he had abruptly come face to face with the Master of the house. The man stood with his hat in his hand and addressed the formidable member of the family. '6Pardon me, but I'd like to inquire the way to the nearest innf, Robert Farquharson, now a man forty or thereabout, looked at him with calm surprise. Turning toward the dining hall he called out, 6'Make a place for the stranger. Sir, he added, Hthere are no inns in this part of the countryf' Thanking him profusely, the Southerner made his way to the seat assigned Wdtfone, 193 9 l55l to him, and subsided behind the piles of food heaped upon his plate. The group in the dining hall impressed the stranger as one that was composed of strong and unusual personalities. They surrounded the long heavy table, loaded with food and massive silver, all working with serious intent on the defenseless food before them. His host bowed his head over the meat, of which his capable white teeth made short work. He seldom spoke, but restless hazel eyes moved rapidly from person to person under heavy black arches missing little in their roving journey. At the foot of the long board, sat the matriarch of the house and her tiny grandson and his mother. The old lady was draped in a gay plaid shawl, her erect head was covered with a thatch of wiry gray hair, which in its wayward arrogance suggested the owner's own temperament. Although she dominated the conversation her glance ever rested on her son. Roxana, nineteen and determined, sat by her side and bided her time. Here again were the Farquharsons, as seen through the eyes of a casual observer. Somewhat far removed from Ireland, but eating and drinking with their accustomed enthusiasm and heartily enjoying life. Next morning, coming down the sunlit stairway, the stranger, refreshed by his good nightis sleep, wandered out on the verandah. As he passed through its white columns, he saw a young girl leading carefully over the flags, the staggering baby he had seen the night before. As she looked up and saw him, he realized that it was his host,s young wife. Yet how differ- ent was this laughing, impish, young girl, from the quiet, handsome woman who had been seated next to him on the night before. As the two fell into an easy conversation, he noted with growing amaze- ment how vivacious and charming this versatile young lady could be. But they both turned simultaneously as a light step was heard behind them. Standing with erect poise in the doorway stood Madam Farquharson. She threw back her head, sniffed the cool air and with a flashing smile turned toward the two at the end of the porch. 'GSO you,ve been admiring my grandsonf, The Southerner, looking sidewise at the strong little black haired child and the suddenly aloof Roxana, felt that a tactful compliment was in order. With the easy grace of the South, he replied. uHe,s a fine strong boy, Madam, the image of his father. Both women looked at him, new found appraisal in their eyes, and the discomfited guest felt immeasurably relieved. HAye, he's the image of his father and his father before him. Come to Grannie, bairnief' W mow, 193 Q l56l The baby looking cautiously at the two women, suddenly made a dive for the booted leg of the man. The women laughed as the baby examined the shining spurs of his new found friend. They both saw him, not as the child, but the grown man, Robert II, carrying on the tradition of the house. The two women in time would be drawn together and merge their individual energies into one force, but until then, the dominant old mother felt that she alone was responsible for this new Windy Hill. LYoN BADHAM, 194-2 HIGH SCHOOL PRIZE ESSAY The Grandson of Abraham Lincoln One lazy afternoon last fall, as I was rummaging about the attic in search of some old dog pedigrees, I came, in a dark corner, upon an old wooden chest. It might instead be called a trunk I thought, for it looked as though it had weathered many an adventurous voyage in the days of some remote ancestor. Thinking that perhaps I should find some old paper or picture which might be a Valuable addition to my collection, I decided to explore its contents. Opening the top, I found inside a great mass of tattered papers and old tintypes. As I carefully investigated each item, I came upon a letter which made my heart leap, for it was signed, A. Lincoln. Hastily I turned over the paper and looked at the superscription, S. Cadogan Square, S. W., London, England, ,Iune 5, 1889. That proved the signature could not be that of President Lincoln who died in 1865. Puzzled I took the letter to Grandmother for explanation. She looked at it a moment and then said that she would tell me the story of the letter. That letter, she said, was written by the only grandson of Abraham Lincoln. c'His father, Robert Lincolnf, Grandmother explained, Hwas, at the time of the death of Lincoln's wife, the only living son of Abraham Lincoln. In Washingtoil, D. C., Robert had met Mary Harlan, daughter of Senator .Iames Harlan, who was then Secretary of the Interior in Lincoln's cabinet. Shortly afterward they were married and moved to Northshore Drive in Chicago. They had three children, Mary, Jessie, and Abraham, who was always known as Jack. Robert Lincoln was a truly fine man, though all his life he suffered from a strange inferiority complex due to the fact that he thought that any honor which he received was 11ot of his own deserving, but was given to him as fthe son of Lincolni. Though suffering from this unfortunate handicap, he Wfidfm, 193 9 i57l ff .81-as KL - ' qtfi ,, ox11.1.Fl.-A, A , Af q - 'I-A- I wg , - . fifvi 1 LQTG1. f., nh.

He looked extremely distinguished, for his face had the expression of a determined character. He was a blond boy with rosy cheeks, a fair complexion, and beautiful blue eyes. His intelligence was far above that of the normal l58l boy his age, and he was always a great student. Jack had a great deal of common sense about any matter. lt was very interesting to watch the change in him each summer as his mind and strong character developed. From the time he was very young, he always strongly admired his Grandfather Lincoln. If he found any clipping, or tribute pertaining to Lincoln, he would put it away carefully and treasure it faithfully. ,lack was fifteen years old when his father, Robert, was made Ambassa- dor to England. There was great excitement when they finally left. After the departure, my brother Arthur anxiously awaited the first letter which J ack would write to him from England.

SULLIVAN, HIGH SCHOOL PRIZE DESIGN Sas. X31 JOAN B. SULLIVAN, 1939 Winona, 1 93 9 I 60 I I939 HONORABLE MENTION Feud's End It was in 1787 that a group of people decided that the Ohio Valley offered them a more prosperous future than did their native Pennsylvania. So it was, that William Langford made up his mind that he and his family would leave their home in Red Stone, Pennsylvania, and travel to the settlement of the Miami Country. lt is needless to go into detail of the hardships they encountered on the arduous journey through Indian-infested territory, and through thick forests as yet unpenetrated by White people. Although I can- not he exact as to the time it took this brave little group of sixty persons to traverse the distance from Pennsylvania to Cincinnati, my estimate is somewhere in the neighborhood of five months. Among others that made the trip with William Langford and his family was a Mr. Pennock and his wife and son. This family was probably the closest to the Langfords. Both men being natural leaders, they were rather important in the settling of this new country. But it was not entirely due to the companionship of their fathers that young Abel Pennock and Julia Langford had been inseparable. For these two young people had found something very likeable about each other. They had been together con- stantly during the long journey West, and since their arrival at the Miami region where they were to make their homes out of the wilderness, they were even more together. As time went on and the settlement grew into a small town with a church and a trading post, it became necessary for the people to have a Town Council which would keep law and order in the community. At the time of the election of the Town Council, a Council President was chosen. When Mr. Pennock was elected over Mr. Langford, the rivalry which had come to exist between these two leaders flared into a bitter feud. Although Julia had believed that the outcome of the election could have no effect on her feeling for Abel, she found that her father's defeat rankled, and her mother did not let this chance slip to break up a romance not to her liking. Mrs. Langford had very definite ideas regarding her future son-in-law, and poor Abel did not meet any of the specifications. Her hopes rested on the young minister of the community, the Reverend Calvin Bertram, and, after using all her diplomacy, the situation developed as she desired. Poor Abel was heart-broken for a while, but as time passed, he courted and married an- other girl. The feud between the families did not end so peacefully as had miifone, 193 9 l61l the romance, for although there was no violence, business rivalry was intense. Several years passed and the community grew, but with this growth there came a series of Indian attacks. What had once seemed a perfectly peace- ful tribe suddenly became hostile because of increasing trespassing on their hunting grounds. It was during one of these attacks that Abel Pennock saved the Langford and Bertram families from death, but in so doing was captured. The Indians held him as a hostage, demanding that the whites leave, under penalty of their leader being killed. The old feud flared anew when the minister declared to the town meeting that it were better to lose one rnan than to lose the homes of many. After Abel,s death his wife and children came to hate the name of Ber- tram. They felt that he had in effect murdered their husband and father. They could not bear to live in the same community with the Langford and Bertram families, and, some new settlers arriving and looking for a home, the Pennocks quickly sold their property and moved away. The story of Abel,s sacrifice became a family legend and the children were taught to hate the names Langford and Bertram. PART II Chris Pennock, HTech 1937, stepped from his train in Cincinnati and looked eagerly about him. Somehow or other he felt at home in this strange city. He remembered tales he had been told by his grandfather about the early days of the Pennock family and he vividly recalled the legend of Abel Pennock of Indian days and his tragic death. Looking about he thought of the changes which had taken place since that an- cestor of his had looked at those very hills. He had three days until Monday, when he was to start to work. Suddenly deciding to see the city at once, he hired a car and drove most of the morning attempting to acquaint himself with his new home. He was driving through one of the hill-top sections southwest of the basin when he realized he was hungry and while eating his lunch he began to wonder just what sort of place that great-grandaddy of his had lived in. He dimly remembered that it was Hdown the river, according to the old stories he had heard. After some inquiries he found himself driving along the Ohio. He came to a quiet little village with parks and great trees . . . evidence that there had once been many such leafy giants. He turned off the main highway and found himself alongside a small golf course with a sign HVisitors Invited. He W eafone, 193 9 l6'Zl stopped the car and walked over to watch a tennis match which was in progress. When it was finished one of the young men with whom he had been talking asked him to make a fourth in a mixed doubles match. Introductions were in order and he learned that his charming partner was Miss Judy Campbell. The name meant nothing to him, but the girl meant a great deal. He had never been so captivated. This interest was mutual, for while enjoying a cool drink after winning their match, she invited him to a party she was giving that night. After the dance that night Chris made a sudden decision. This lovely girl couldn't walk into his life, steal his heart, and walk right out again. No, he had to see more of her. Chris seemed to find time from his job to be with Judy every week-end. The summer was slipping by and-Chris had made enough money to start a comfortable home. One night in early fall he asked Judy if she would marry him. The answer was yes, and they set the date for the twenty-seventh of November. 1 A few weeks after the honeymoon, Judy was busily engaged in unpacking a box of her husbandis books when she found and read an old leather-backed diary dating back to the early days of Cincinnati. Recognizing her motheris maiden name, Bertram, she skimmed through the book. She also recog- nized her own married name. Could it be possible that such an amazing coincidence had happened! When Chris returned from work that night she met him at the door and said softly, 4'The feudis over, Chrisf' That night they read the diary together, a little awed at the queer quirks of fate that had brought the two families together again after so many years.

SULLIVAN, 1939 HONORABLE MENTION I5O0 Feet Underground Up, up, up, when I had expected to go down, down, down. We were climbing up a mountain on our way to a salt mine. Every few minutes Mother had to stop and rest and, although we didn't admit it, all of us wanted to rest too. We were overjoyed when we caught sight of a little cabin which meant that our journey was over. We were going to see our first Austrian salt mine. First of all we had to don white cotton suits and caps which made us resemble the most modern of garbage-men. Then we were presented with a guide. He was just the kind of dwarf-like man you knew was made to mine salt. He couldn't have been five feet tall and he had a long white beard and a little red nose. Heid been working in that mine for forty years. Imagine! After entering the mine by way of a small door, we walked two miles down a chilly maze of corridors. We were continually turning right or left and how the guide knew his way was a mystery to me. Each of us, Mother, Daddy, Janny, Bill, and I, had a dim lantern with us as there were no lights in the corridors. It was very dark and wet and Bill was W afme, 193 Q l64l having the time of his life splashing ,Ianny and me. Our guide rambled on, telling us the story of the mine. It was 3000 years old and had, through the centuries, furnished salt for miles and miles around. The mine was about 1500 feet under the mountain, and was so large that it took you fourteen days to go through it completely. In a few minutes we came to our first Chute. It was like a slide only it was 250 feet long and you could barely see a tiny speck of light to convince you that there was a bottom to it. We all held on to each other and whizz-we were down. It was just like a roller coaster. It took your breath away and gave you that sinking feeling in your stomach. I simply loved it. I could see why the miners liked the mine. Think of being able to get that exliilerated-feeling anytime you wanted to. We turned the corner then, and arrived at a scene which also took our breath away, but this time it was because of its beauty. We saw an under- ground lake lighted by red and white lights, reflected in the darkest water imaginable. An illuminated barge was waiting to take us on our way. We sang in order to hear our echoes and we dipped our fingers into the liquid salt as we made our fairy journey. A gentle bump and our boat- ride was over. As soon as we were on our feet again the guide turned to us with a grin on his face and announced that we were going to cross the border from Austria to Germany. Think of crossing a border without having to show your passport and getting a new kind of money. It was quite an event, but little did I dream that in a few months there would be no border to cross. At that time, 1937, there was an agreement between Austria and Germany concerning the mine. Austria was allowed to own and operate the salt mine which was only partly on Austrian soil, and Germany was allowed to own all of the lumber on top of the mountain. That way they would both receive what they wanted. From the border we went to the underground rooms. They contained many old miner's implements and some very large salt crystals. In one of them there was a plaque commemorating the time Franz Josef, a former emperor of Austria, had come to visit the mine. According to our guide the temperature of these rooms never varied a degree throughout the year. After about ten minutes, our hilarious sliding and running through corri- dors came to an end. We discovered the little car that was to take us out. It was a simple board fastened on to some wheels. We prepared ourselves Widow., 193 9 l65l as We had for the chutes, by holding tightly to each other, and we shot through the darkness. I still insist that we were going at least 60 miles an hour, but Daddy assures me that it was only 20 miles an hour at the most. Anyway, all I thought of as the wind rushed past me was Hwhat would happen if I fell off. Luckily no one did. On our way out, we rode along beside the wooden tubes which carry the liquid salt to the bottom of the mountain where it is made into salt as we know it. The tubes were made hundreds of years ago when Wood was the only material that could be used to conduct the salt. The salt is apt to stick to the sides of the tubes and therefore fresh water must be run through them frequently. They serve their purpose, however, and help bring the neighboring peasants their salt. Now that I am back in America and Europe is in such a state of turmoil, I am glad that I was able to see the salt mine at I-lallein, Austria. BARBARA SLADE, 1940 The Best People Three boys stood on the steps of the library building at Miami University. They interrupted their conversation as a tall, blond, young man, with some books under his arm, passed. '4Hey, Edward, shouted one, ucoming to the barn dance tonight? 56 No, thank you, answered Edward, I have some work to do. And he passed on without further comment. Why does he want to work on Saturday night?', asked another. 4'Well, all I have to say is, that he had better come down off his high horse, said the third. '6I..ord Hamilton is going to pay his respects to the King no doubt. A young girl who had watched this scene from the doorway came down the steps. uYou boys shouldn't make fun of Edwardf, she said, 'che just isn,t very well acquainted around heref' 4'But Anne, he has had plenty of time to get acquainted in two months. He just considers himself too high and mighty. I knowf' she agreed, abut he will change, I am suref' And then and there, she decided to get to know Edward better. Edward Hamilton had recently come to America. I-Iis father was a W afonp, 193 Q I 60 I lawyer who had been called to the Middle West on an important case. Edward had been planning to enter one of the large English universities, and had not wanted to come to the States. His father, however, had in- sisted. He maintained that it would add to Edwardls education to have a year of college life in America. From the very first, Edward did not like America, especially the boys and girls at the university. He con- sidered them loud and over-friendly. When he showed no signs of accept- ing any offers of friendship, they soon left him strictly alone. As his great uncle had a title and an estate in his home country, Edward felt himself superior to these boys who came from all types of families, and he did not felt. Thus he was fast becoming unpopular among his classmates. There was one exception to this-a vivacious, brown-haired, young lady. She was a cheer leader for the football team and assistant Editor of the annual. Every- body knew and liked her. Anne Lewis was her name and she was a typ- ical American girl. As Edward showed some ability for writing, he had been put on the lit- erary staff of the Annual. It was at a board meeting that Anne first talked to him and discovered some of his dislike for America. Anne was a born reformer and she now decided to take the job of reforming Edward and giving him an appreciation of America. Edward had decided to go doggedly through his first year at Miami and then present himself to his father with the information that he was definitely going back to England. He had spent much of his spare time thinking up arguments to give his father. But something changed all thatg he fell in love. She was the assistant Editor of the Annual and Edward was sure the most perfect person he had ever seen. Anne was, he thought, an ex- ceptional American. Anne, hearing the other boys joke about Edwardls famous ancestors decided to look into her own family history. While searching in the attic one afternoon, she found something with which she was sure she could con- vince Edward of Americais merits. Whereupon, the next day, she made a bet with Edward that she could prove that her family was just as good as his. To please her Edward took the bet, although he considered himself an easy winner. He wrote to his uncle in England who sent him a copy of the Hamilton family tree which went back to William the Conqueror. Anne read all of EdWard's information, which told of courtiers, brave warriors, and some titled statesmen. Then she handed him a small, worn Wiliam, 193 9 167 fl book, dated 1785. It was her great-great-grandmother's diary, kept on the long journey from Virginia to the Miami Valley. It began at the beginning of the journey westward which Elizabeth Lewis made in a covered wagon, with her husband and their three boys. Every day she had written of the hardships and dangers they had had to face from the moment they set out at dawn until they made camp at night. Pk if Dk X Pk March 13, 1785 a'Today three Indian braves, painted in a half a dozen different hues, boldly approached and stopped our wagon. The only thing that we could do was to allow them to go through our belongings, eating a good lot of our supplies, and finally making off with my cameo pin and ,lohn's silver watch, whose shine seemed to attract their eyes. As long as we allow these savages to do as they please, they seem not to harm usfl April 1, 1785 Wlloday, in a quiet spot in an unknown valley, we buried our youngest son, William Lewis, and pushed on westward. William was killed in the Indian raid two nights ago, a horrible and terrifying experience of which 1 shall not write.'7 April 23, 1785 HJohn says that if we have no more trouble with the Indians and God be- ing with us, we shall reach the Miami Valley in three weeks time. How 1 long to be settled and finished with this terrible journey, although no one knows what may await us at the end of it? The diary went on to tell of their trials when they did reach the end of their journey and how they had to live in the covered wagon until John Lewis, alone, could build a rude rough log hut for a home. It told how his brave wife stayed alone in the but while her husband went hunting and trapping. As time went on more settlers came to the little spot they had chosen for a home. A little settlement grew up. This was called Lewis- town in honor of its founder. The Lewises were typical of the early Ameri- can pioneer. This little book absorbed Edward with its day by day account of the pioneer,s life. He began to have a strong admiration for these courageous people who had done so much for their country. Edward thought of his own ancestors. If called on to make such a perilous journey and sacrifice, would they have done it? Very likely not. Aside from a few iine war- riors they were mainly courtiers and nobles, country gentry interested in YW. arm, 193 9 l68l fine dress, fine wine and good hunting. There were, of course, some brave young commanders who had distinguished themselves at sea. Edward, how- ever, began to see America in a new light. He saw it a young, flourishing country, full of energetic people who, like their ancestors, are still upush- ing onf' After all, the boys at the school couldn't be so bad. If he made friends with them, they would probably return his friendship. And they were, many of them, descended from brave, hardy pioneers just as Anne was. Anne had won her point. She had convinced Edward that her lineage, although possibly not as high placed and not as cultured, was really as truly fine as his. Thus Edward came to admire and respect the United , S he treated Anne te-the . ' , was fully convinced that the only place to finish his education was in Ohio, in the same class with Miss Anne Lewis.

MARTHA ANN GOODYEAR, 1941 Responsibilities at C.P.S. This year at C.P.S., a new form of government has been established. This form of government is a Student Council. The Senior Class has been the instigator of this idea, for the Seniors felt that a system of self-government would promote a greater standard of honor and more cooperation between faculty and students. With this as a basis, the idea of a Student Council was put before the school. The feeling for the necessity of self-government was present in both faculty and students, and their whole-hearted approval was given. Universal opinion was that more sense of responsibility should be instilled in every girl. Thus the beginning of the Student Council for C.P.S. The Council was organized with a president, secretary, and two representatives from each class in the upper school. A Constitution expressing the ideals and the purpose of the Council was drawn up and approved. Then the real task began. Perhaps there were those who felt that the Council had too much authority, others considered it a needed and valuable thing. For some girls, adjustment was harder than for others, but nowhere was cooperation lacking. Each girl felt that she now had some voice in the government which directed her. This new government gives to the girls a certain amount of freedom. If they wish to preserve this freedom, they must conform to the rules of the Council which is here, not to dictate to the girls, or the school, but to act as an agent. It wishes to carry out the plans and ideas of the girls and serves as a medium between faculty and students. Therefore, the faculty W atm, 193 9 lTOl and the students rule the activities of the Council. For the freedom they receive, however, the students must give up some things. As Burke says, 6'All government, indeed every human benefit and enjoyment, every virtue, and every prudent act, is founded on compromise and barter. We balance inconveniences, we give and take, we remit some rights that we may enjoy others, and we choose rather to be happy citizens than subtle disputantsf' Thus certain liberties which have been enjoyed in the past must be given up in order to enjoy those put forth by the Council. It is clearly a system of compromise and barter, compromise is necessary to make this plan of government a success. We have found that indeed the students do prefer to be 'fhappy citizens rather than usubtle disputantsf' Having freedom also means being upon your honor. It means having a strong enough will to control silly impulses. We feel that, in the brief existence which the Student Council has had, a greater standard of honor has been achieved. Honor was one of the main themes when the Council was organized, but is now the main theme of the students. Honor among girls is the character building of coming citizens. The simple but firm rules which the Council has made have roused the desire in the students to shoulder a certain amount of responsibilities. In assuming these responsibilities in school life, one develops the character which is an essential to every human being. The success of self-government depends entirely upon the attitude with which it is received. So far, the Student Council has met with far greater success than could have been hoped for in so short a time. The purposes for which it was founded have been partially fulfilled due to the efforts of all concerned. Although the fellowship at C.P.S. has always been great, we feel that it now is more deep rooted than ever. There is a close knit congeniality between faculty and students. The cooperation which we have had, has been a great reward not only to the Council but to the entire school. The Student Council has reached a place of security in the student life and it is our wish that it will so remain. We do not wish to become a dictator. Indeed we could not become a dictator. Now that the school has become accustomed to our true purpose, they will, we believe, retain us as we are: a promotor of ideals and a medium between faculty and student.

My Father's ancestors were very prominent in the early life around here. I,m sure a story of how Isaac White helped progress in our town in 1787 would win the prize. I should think that the judges would choose an essay which was written by someone descended from the best pioneers.

After school in the library, Jane and Mary found a great deal of interest- ing material for their essays. Jane chose to write on early music in their town. Mary, after having a look at nearly everything, decided that an essay on early law would prove interesting. While looking through a group of cases that were tried in 1787, Mary came upon one case which surprised and amused her greatly. She showed it to Jane, who immediately burst out laughing. It was a Record of the first case ever tried in their city. Although Mar did not use this information in her essa , she and Jane ufiled it for Y Y future reference. About a month later, Jane, Mary and Deborah finished their essays and mailed them to the Sun. When the winner of the contest was announced, Deborah White got the surprise of her life. Mary Hayes' essay was chosen as the best, and Deborah was given a rating of '4Fair.,, Although both Deborah and her Mother were very angry, they had to accept the decision. When Jane invited Deborah to a luncheon which she was giving in Mary's honor, Deborah, although she still felt abused, accepted. At the luncheon, the three girls sat together, and Deborah said never a word in congratulating Mary. When Jane could stand Deborah's snobbishness no longer, she looked at Mary, and leaned across to Deborah. '6Mary and I found the most interesting thing while we were in the libraryf, she said. lt was a record of the first case ever tried in our city. This is what it said: 'Martin Meyers was brought before the court and charged with stealing cucumbers.

The tides come in, the tides go out, Leaving rocks worn smooth, kelp in their route. Each wave attempts to further it's mark, Slithering, sliding, it leaves the rocks dark. After leavipg the Island the memory remains, Of Monhegan's great cliff and the ocean,s broad plains. LEE AVERY, 1941 Wiifone, 193 9 I 78 l A Journey Through A Stamp Album I take many a trip To Europe, and Asia, And far-off China, To Egypt, land of pyramid and Sphinx. I travel on the Nile and wonder at the sights Of ancient ruins. I look into the past and see the faces Of persons long since gone, Austrian Franz-Josef, And the famous Frenchman, Cardinal Richelieu, Lincoln, our great President, And good Queen Victoria. Often to the nation of France I go, To Paris and Bordeaux, Marseilles and Cannes. I'm fascinated by Mont St. Michel, little town Of crowded, winding streets, and I see The Port de la Rochelle.

Smith A.B. -EDITOR Early Indian Tribes in Southwestern Ohio The Miami Indian Tribe was the branch of Algonquins which lived in the vicinity of Cincinnati. The tribes east of the Mississippi could be divided into three great families. The tribes were the Miamis, the Potawatomies, and the Eries. By the middle of the eighteenth century the Indians had been dispossessed of their homes and had settled in the Northwest Territory. The Miamis had been tenants of Ohio for a longer period than the other tribes and extended over Ohio as far as the two Miami Rivers. They did not have much of a government, but a simple democracy, if anything. Indian families of Algonquin stock possessed dialects which differed greatly. The Algonquins made as great an impression upon the White Man as any other tribe, and the Indians of Algonquin lineage appealed most to our historians, novelists, and dramatists. The Indian language is uholophrasticf' This means the compressing of a whole sentence into one word. In appearance the Indian has straight black hair, a broad face which gives the effect of high cheekbones, an aquiline nose, a slight slant oi the eye, and a scant beard. The Indian's skin has always been called red, but actually, the white manis W efifone, 193 9 I80l skin is more so than the Indian'sg the Indian,s skin is really brown, some- times very dark. The villages were usually grouped along rivers and the Indians led a carefree existence. They hunted buffalo, bear, deer, and tapped maple trees. At that time Ohio was almost entirely covered with forest. Through the dense woods, the paths which were the Indian highways, were worn by buffalo. These animal trails greatly infiuenced the location of the villages. The Indians of the Ohio built log shelters instead of tepees. These were made by laying logs, one upon the other and staking them in place. These were the sidewalls. There was a pitched roof of poles, thatched with linden bark. The ends of the structure were open or closed with animal skins. The white men have gotten some of their sports from the Indians. One of these sports is tobogganing. Another sport acquired from the Indians is La Cross. The Indians also gave white man canoeing in a large measure. The tapping of maple trees and the making of maple sugar was taught to the white man by the Indians. The Ohio River was called HOyo7, by the Indians. This was gotten from the spelling used on the plates which Celeron buried in the Ohio River banks. It can easily be seen that the name HOhio7' came from pronouncing uOyo.', The name of the Indian tribe, Miami, signifies umotherf, The settlers found this valley to be the forest home of the Indians with this tribal name, when they first came into it. The Algonquin territory extended from the Scioto River to the Wfabash and from the Ohio River to Lake Michigan. This territory was claimed for them by uLittle Turtle in the Greenville Treaty of 1795. uLittle Turtlei' was a distinguished chief and counselor. He was a dark man with a swarthy complexion and was called Mesh-e-ben-ogh-gua by the Indians. He com- manded at the defeat of General Harmar and later at St. Clair. He visited Col. Jared Mansfield in the Ludlow Mansion House in Cumminsville to talk concerning boundary lines between the two nations. The Indians had been very lucky in their battles and when the question of fighting General Wayne came up, Little Turtlev advised against it, saying that their luck would not last and that General Wayne was a man who was awake both day and night. One of the other chiefs called him a coward which name wounds the feelings of an Indian almost more than anything else. He joined the battle and fought well but the Indians were defeated showing HLittle Turtlen to be a better prophet than they had thought. uLittle Turtlew finally died of gout. The first settlement between the two Miamis was made by Major Stites, in mkafone, f 93 9 I81l 1788, opposite the mouth of the Licking. One month later Colonel Israel Ludlow with Denman and Patterson, left Maysville, Kentucky, with twenty persons to settle an Mentire section eighteen and fractional section seventeen, in township fourv which was purchased by Judge Symmes. The town was at that time covered with dense forest and the course of streets was blazed on trees. The survey embraced only between Broadway and Central Avenue. The Indians outside of the settlements were constantly causing trouble. Some of the settlers were carried off and held captive or killed. Later block houses were built and the settlement was enlarged. There are many signs of mound builders in Ohio. There was a mound at the intersection of Third and Main streets. It was eight feet high, one hun- dred and twenty feet long, sixty feet broad, and oval shaped. Since then this mound has been almost obliterated by the grading of Main Street. As this mound has been obliterated, the Indians have slowly faded into oblivion. They are almost never seen in Ohio and live only in the west and in the north. LEE AVERY, 1941 A Life of the l9'rh Century Anne Bryan Wood was one of the first of our family to come to Cincin- nati. She came with her husband to this town in 1825. Anne Bryan was born .Ianary 30th, 1780. Her early life with her brother and two sisters was spent in Gloucester, England, her birthplace. She and her sisters were educated in a private school, where they had the fashionable subjects of the day, including French, music, dancing, and drawing. She made frequent trips to Manchester, where she met her future husband, James Wood. It is an odd coincidence that Anne Bryan,s two sisters also married men named Wood, though not related to James Wood. One of her possessions, which I have now, is a little diary and memoran- dum book which she had in her marriage year. This diary is small, com- pact and bound in worn red leather. The pages are naturally yellow with age and written in faded brown ink. There is a pocket, in the front cover of the book, which contains a small card with HDirections for Measuringn by Mlohn Cash, Tailor and Habit Maker, Liverpool, Englandf, There is also a small holder for a pencil. There are several pages of printed matter also in the diary. First, there is a ulVIap for Instruction of Youth in the Elements of Geography. The W mane, 193 Q l82l title-page reads, uPoole,s lnstructive Memorandum-Book for the year 1809.-Printed by C. Whittingham, Goswell Street, London, England. There are also sketches on geography, history and astronomy, written in a series of dialogues by pupil and master. 6'Cahusac's New Country Dances for 1809,' is extremely interesting, though very hard to understand. An example is the '5Morgiana-First lady change places with second gentleman, first gentleman do the same with second lady, poussetteg and right and left. Other pages contain certain pieces of prose and poetry, '4Latin Words and Phrasesf' 6'lVlarks and Principles of True Politenessw and c'The Royal Family of Great Britainf' The pages on which my great, great, grandmother wrote her diary have one question for each day printed on them to uexercise the On January 28th, 1809, she writes, HAn agreeable proposal and a resolu- tionf' I imagine that this means that James Wood made a proposal of marriage and she resolved to marry him. On March 18th, she 'ccame to Cheltenham. While there she wrote, HA confirmation and a new resolve, but I do not quite understand what she means by this. On July 13th, she was apparently married to James Wood, and she writes, '6Que le bon Dieu nous rende tous heureux faMay God make us happy. j She and her husband then went to live in the United States. They left on August 31st from Liverpool and arrived in Philadelphia on October 14th, the journey taking forty-four days. The new Mrs. Wood was apparently very homesick in America, for she sent a great many letters to friends and rela- tives in England. During the month of November she sent a few letters every day by 'cpacketv fa type of vessel carrying mails and passengers and sailing at fixed timesj. There are no entries for the month of December. The Woods lived in Philadelphia for about fifteen years, during which time they had five daughters and one son. The one son was sent to England for his education. He became a Catholic and later Frederick William, Archbishop Wood of Philadelphia. The Woods moved to Cincinnati about 1824 or 1825. They lived on Broadway below Fourth Street, then the center of the residential district of Cincinnati. The house was near the present Queen City Club. Anne Wood's husband died in the Cholera epidemic in Cincinnati, in 1832. He became ill suddenly and died on the same afternoon. After her husband's death, Anne started on Pike Street a 4'School for Respectable Females in the present Taft Museum. She was assisted in her mdafone, 193 Q 1831 teaching of the young ladies by her daughters, one of whom was musical and gave piano lessons. Anne Wood had this School for several years. Between 1855 and 1860, after all but one of her daughters had been mar- ried, she moved out on Madison Road. The house was on the site of the entrance to Annwood Street, which street is named for her. She lived there with an attendant and her daughter, Catharine, until her death in 1867, on December 19th, at the age of eight-seven. lf the little old lady could have gone through a day with her great, great, grand-daughter, she would probably have been most interested in seeing a present-day Cincinnati school for girls. She would have been interested in the freedom of the girls of today, and in the marked difference between the modern girl and a young lady in her 4'School for Respectable Femalesf' ANNE RAMSEY, 1942 A Contrast in Social Life After 1802 Cincinnati began to grow into a civilized town with, as the Rev- erend Coss says, a definite social life of its own. To be sure, this social life was brought from the East, but in the new West it took on a different flavor. The primitive existence in a fort on the frontier became more civilized as more and more people flowed West. Instead of soldiers, men were coming West who were interested in raising their families and making their fortunes. As this steadying influence increased, social life became stabilized, and a social system was developed, in which there were class distinctions. It was all very well to talk of the democracy of the West and, in truth, the West was more democratic than the East, but there were still social barriers. A visitor from England, Mrs. Frances Trollope, was surprised to find that mechanics were not recognized socially, whereas shopkeepers were. Upon inquiring, she was told that the shopkeepers were HMerchants,' while the mechanics made the articles they sold. This constituted the difference. Early entertainments were, of necessity, simple, but entertainments there were. The first ones were cabin raisings where the men got together and helped their neighbor to build a cabin. While this was being done, the women cooked and, when the work was finished, they all feasted. A fiddler added to the merriment as he played for the Virginia Reels and country dances. The Reverend Goss says that perhaps the gayest of the pioneer parties was the ,Hstraw ridel' which was climaxed by a ball. For the ride, an old river boat was put on runners. There were ten outriders, two fiddlers, two fiute players, and a bottle of '4Black Betty circulating freely. The dance at the end of the ride was always a memorable event. The dancers were dressed in linsey-woolsey and buckskin suits. Despite the simplicity of the clothes, there was as much discussion over a new shade of home-made dye as there is today W atm, 193 9 i841 over the latest strapless evening dress. When supper time came, the men ate in a big room by themselves. The women, seated in chairs around the walls of another room, ate their supper from plates held on their laps. This ar- rangement was followed because Hthe men preferred it that way.'7 How dif- ferent from today when the women have things arranged the way they prefer! The cultural side of life was looked into also. There was an early musical society and also a literary society. Imagine the busy pioneer ladies writing their papers on the latest books, brought by coach on a long ride from the East! Were they so very different from the busy clubwomen of today in their efforts to keep abreast of the times? Are there not clubs today where the ladies meet and discuss interesting topics, not always confined to cultural subjects? There is a hint in the old records of clacking tongues and spicy gossip, which lends a familiar note that causes us to wonder if a hundred years or so makes much diliference after all. Social life has changed in many of its outward forms and we laugh at the crudities of early timesg nevertheless, there is much in human nature today which has changed very little from pioneer uSociety.w HARRIET Woons, 1939 Early Newspapers Cincinnatfs first newspaper was the Centinei of the Northwestern Territory published in 1793 for three years, before it was sold to Edmund Freeman. He renamed it and published it elsewhere. The news from Marietta was usually eight days old, from New York, fifty-six days, and from London five months. It was often copied from other newspapers. The Cqntinel had four pages the size of a manis handkerchief and was a light brown in color. Cin- cinnatiis second newspaper, Western Spy, was more important than the first. It started as a weekly on May 28, 1799, and was irregularly published until 1809, when it was sold to Carney and Morgan who renamed it The Whig. After being sold several times, it became part of the Cincinnati Gazette in 1815, an important Cincinnati paper of later years. After that a number of papers came, such as The Literary Cadet, Spirit of the West and others which soon disappeared. They seem very dull today but while they were published they were regarded as wonders. Finally real progress was made by the printing of the Commercial-Register Daily. It lasted only six months of 1826, but by that time merchants knew the value of daily advertising. Eleven years later, the publishers of the Gazette were persuaded by merchants of Cincinnati to make a daily issue. There were only about one hundred and fifty subscribers at the beginning and the paper was nineteen by twenty-six inches with only two men to put the paper out. On April 25, 1840 another paper came out weekly called Spirit of the Times and later Daily Times which was printed every day. April 10, 1841, the Whtfone, 193 Q T351 Daily Cincinnati Enquirer appeared with the Brough brothers as publishers. They had bought the Advertiser anal journal, then an evening daily, but in order to take advantage of the mailing schedules, they made it a morning paper. The first interesting paper was the Daily Commercial which had bright stories, fiction, and tales for children. Later, this paper was merged with the Gazette and called the Commercial-Gazette. Still later the Enquirer bought the Commercial-Gazette, in 1930, when it was under the name of Commercial- Tribune. The Cincinnati Star was founded in 1872 with much money put in for a plant said to be one of the best equipped in the nation. David Sin- ton, C. P. Taft, and H. P. Boyden, who had purchased the Times in 1879, bought the Star in June, 1880, and merged the two papers under the name of Cincinnati-Times-Star. It is now one of the leading Cincinnati papers. Its political sentiments are staunchly Republican. Starting in 1930, German papers began to appear, the Vollcsblatt was one of the most successful until it was absorbed in 1920 by the F reie Presse, another daily German paper which had started in 1868. In 1881 E. W. Scripps started the Penny Post, the second paper of what is now the largest chain of newspapers in the nation. The political senti- ments are non-partisan. By 1887 there were more than fifty-five thousand readers. People could now read the latest news on exciting happenings. More readers were added to the list when a Sunday supplement in color was put out by the Enquirer, on or about 1898. Nowadays the whole newspaper system is revolutionized by modern presses sending out papers at sixty thousand an hour. Soon after the news is gathered and the paper printed, the subscribers receive them. The three papers of Cincinnati distribute daily four-hundred, thirty thousand papers, or 125,590,000 newspapers a year. Altogether including the Sunday edi- tion of the Enquirer and the German Freie Presse there are more than 136,- 330,000 copies distributed annually. BARBARA GROAT, 1941 The Evolution of Navigation on the Ohio River When La Salle, the first white man to descend the Ohio River, set out with his party, canoes were the only kind of boats used. Since the country around there was mainly covered by forests, it was practically impossible to travel except by rivers. During the latter part of the seventeenth century and the beginning of the eighteenth, fur-trapping and trading were done on a large scale. The Ohio River, or 6'La Belle Rivierei' as the French called it, was one of the main routes of travel. Missionaries and explorers also used it. Some curious adventurers even tried to discover its source and length. After several expeditions, it was found that it was formed by the culmination of W. aim, 1939 l86l the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers at what was then Ft. Duquesne, now Pittsburgh. It joins the Mississippi River at Cairo. After the English captured Ft. Duquesne and the Ohio Valley, they, unlike the French, wanted to settle. It was a diflicult task getting over the moun- tains, and when once over, the Ohio River was the only way to travel west. The families built llatboats and then floated down the river. Ethel C. Leahy describes them very well in the book HWho's Who on the Ohio River. They were built like both the Ark and the Barge. Their length was always more than eighteen feet, since a family and possessions had to be carried. On the top of a timber raft, a house was constructed of thick, heavy, square timber. There was a guarded entrance, and a trapdoor on the roof. The only guid- ance was given by long oars or sweeps, and the current did the rest. There the families wgere, on boats which might fall apart at any minute, floating down a strange river. They could never be sure of what lay ahead, falls, rapids, or ambushes of Indians. When their destination was finally reached, since there was no way of getting the flatboats back upstream, they were chopped to pieces, and the wood used to build houses. Thus the Hatboat served two purposes. Ethel Leahy also tells of the keel-boat. This boat had almost every means of operation except steam. It was pulled by the cordelle, 'fa line nearly a thousand feet long, fastened to the top of the mast, which rose from the cen- ter of the boat to a height of about thirty feet. Then from shore men pulled this. The task of pulling required from twenty to forty men on just ordinary parts of the river. Therefore, on difficult stretches it was almost impossible to travel, and often men had to be sent ahead on shore to clear the way. An- other dilliculty that might arise was a low channel. Before the keel-boat could resume its journey, it was necessary to deepen the channel. The pass- engers also had to help do this. Things couldn't go on as they had. Some- thing had to be invented to take the place of man-power. Finally, after much labor, Robert Fulton and Robert M. Livingston completed a steamboat, the 'LOrleans.7, It made its maiden voyage from Pittsburgh in 1811, the first steamboat on the Ohio River. A year later it went from Pittsburgh to New Orleans in fourteen days. Thus, navigation took a great step ahead in the use of steam. After routes had been chartered and boats improved, people began to take an interest in the rivers for pleasure, as well as for business and trade. This brought on the glorious days of the Packet boats. A party of people could have a fine time over the weekend on a boat. At first, since there were only a few rooms on a boat, they were named after the states. Later though, there were more rooms than the number of states, so since then the rooms on boats have been called staterooms. The Packet boats were, in these days, at the height of their glory,, but now there are few left. For many years, though routes had been charted, there were still diffi- culties to overcome. At certain times of the year, boats were unable to navi- gate because of low water. From 1895 until 1904 there were few times Winona, 193 Q l87l when the water was above nine feet, but many when it was below. A census was taken, and it was decided that a plan for improvement must be adopted, that the Ohio River should be canalized by means of fifty-four locks and movable dams. When these were completed, the depth of the water would never go below nine feet, thus assuring navigation the length of the Ohio River at all times. The work was begun, and the first dam, just below Pitts- burgh where the Allegheny and Monongahela unite, was completed and ready for use in 1885. It was such a great undertaking, and the cost amounted to so much, that it was thought if the work could be hurried it would be better. This could not be done, however, because at one time funds were lacking. lt took fifty-five years to complete the work. Now that the river has been improved, and the boats to an even greater extent, it is hard for us to realize all the dangers braved by those tiny canoes and flatboats. It can truly be said that navigation has progressed as much as industries. It may have taken a long time, but it was worth it. PATSY Poem-3, 1941 Early Private Schools After the more material needs of the settlers of Cincinnati had been ac- complished, such as erecting homes and other buildings and providing fortifi- cations, the community naturally turned to the establishment of schools. It was in the early part of the nineteenth century that the first private schools of Cincinnati were founded. The children whose parents could not afford these advantages did not receive instruction. Primitive as all this may seem, Cincinnati, until the Civil War, continued to be the center of learning for the West and Southwest, and well deserved to be called the Queen City of the West. One of the first private schools for boys was established by Robert Stubbs, an Englishman, in 1800. It was called HThe Classical Schoolw and taught such subjects, as Greek, Latin, Geometry, and Rhetoric. A year or so later, a Mrs. Williams opened a school for girls on the same order. The best ex- ample of a private school of this time, however, was that of Mr. and Mrs. Carpenter. This school was held in a 10g cabin not fifteen feet square, in the district which was later known as Sedamsville. From 1810-1812, three or four other small schools started in the down- town district around Sixth and Main. These were for boys, and each school had about forty pupils. It was at these establishments that the boys learned the method of obtaining a holiday. At noon the school master went out for his lunch. On returning he would sometimes find himself barred from the W mm, 193 9 1881 school by the boys, who had provided themselves with provisions, in case a long siege was necessary to obtain their demands. The holiday was usually granted with a treat of apple cider and cakes. Until 1823, the curriculum of these schools consisted largely of instruction in the languages, mathematics and some rhetoric. At this time the method was slowly changed, as was shown by the 4'Cincinnati Female Academyii under Dr. John Lock. He had liberal and enlarged opinions on Hfemalei' education and introduced the higher branches of Science among the pretty creatures who assembled there. One lovely girl took a degree in mathe- matics, another in moral philosophy. They blushed so sweetly and looked so beautifully puzzled and confounded, that it was difficult for many to de- cide how far they merited a diploma? This school was of high rank and extremely popular, in fact, the daughters of the most distinguished citizens were enrolled there. Dr. Lock showed great zeal and devotion for his work, and at the same time had perfected the system of upouring oil on the troubled watersf' lt is amusing today, to read in the paper the advertisement of the Joseph Herron Academy, which appeared in 1850: 4'School for boys situated on the north side Sixth Street between Walnut and Vine, out of the business part of the city and surrounded with line private residences and shaded by beauti- ful trees. About 1855, Mr. Chickering came from the East and established a school in Avondale. It became necessary, however, to have a larger building, so it was moved to the hall of The George Street Engine House between Central Avenue and Plum Street. These private schools continued for many years to prosper and enlarge, forming the foundation for our public schools of today, and strengthening themselves for their long existence through the years. NANCY MCLAUGHLIN, 1940 Cincinnati A Literary Center uCincinnati more than any other Middle Western city, has been,', writes Henry Howe in his uHistorical Collections of Ohiof, ua literary center-a great book-publishing, book-selling martf' The bookstore of Robert Clarke and Company was one of the few literary focuses before the Nineteenth Cen- tury. Here one met the most eminent of social, literary and musical com- pany. This unusual popularity for books is credited to the integrity of our Winona, 193 9 i891 early book sellers. These business men were the first to interest people in reading and from their work has resulted much of our love for books and ultimately the establishment of libraries. Already in the late Eighteenth Century a library had been estab- lished in one of our earliest residential districts, Waliiiit Hills. This library was a private one which was well equipped with 700 volumes. The library was destroyed by fire soon after 1800. The Theological College of Lane Seminary dedicated its library in 1833. President Lyman Beecher, DD., was the president of the college when its 1000-volume library was com- pleted. The school then had an enrollment of one hundred students. There was no tuition, just a monthly payment of 35 for board. The Lane Medical College had already been endowed with 2000 volumes in the year 1825. The Cincinnati Board of Education was the first promoter of the public libraries. As early as the year 1838 or 1840 the Board had established a library in the center of the city and equipped it with 164,000 volumes. At first, each book was read approximately three times yearly. The Mercantile Library soon followed in the steps of the first Public Library. This library had a more specialized selection of books and was turned into a private library. One of the most interesting libraries was that of Mr. A. T. Coshorn. Mr. Goshorn, who refused compensation for having aided the state in engineer- ing an exposition, was given an appropriation of 310,000 by the citizens of Cincinnati. This sum was to be used in equipping one room in Mr. Gos- horn's home as a library. ln 1858 this gentleman bought books of his choice and established a private reading room. Enoch l. Carson, whose library burned several years ago, had the most complete Masonic library of the world. He also had a fine collection of Shakespearean works. One of the earliest clubs was the 4'Historical and Philosophical Societyn which was located on Garfield Place. This club possessed a library of 7000 volumes and over 40,000 pamphlets. The Unity Club was started as a Sun- day afternoon pastime for debaters and book lovers. This club later charged a nominal fee and as its membership grew it moved to the Grand Opera House where both men and women met under the leadership of librarian A. W. Whepley. The U.C.D. was founded in 1866 for ladies and gentlemen of Mt. Auburn and surrounding communities. This club devoted its weekly sessions to essays. Even earlier than this one, was founded the Literary Club under the auspices of a Librarian of Congress, A. B. Spofford. This club dis- WL wlfone, 193 9 1901 cussed essays, a monthly newspaper and books. It was the oldest of its kind to consider the newspaper as a source of knowledge. At the outbreak of the Civil War, this club renamed itself the 4'Burnet Riflesn and devoted its efforts to the Union Army. We can hardly realize the effort needed to interest people in any kind of book reading, now that we have at our disposal 30 Public Libraries, 89 Public Schools, each with a supply of Library books, and many other spe- cialized libraries in our own city, namely medical, law, and theological. It is hard for us to realize that in 1850 the books in our city may have num- bered 200,000 while now our main library alone has approximately 100,- 000,000 volumes. RUTH EYRICH, 1940 The Earlier Education of Cincinnati When the early settlers moved westward into the Ohio Valley, their chief implements were the plow, the rifle, the speller and the arithmetic. The rifle was necessary to protect the people from the Indians, the plow, to till the fields, and the speller and arithmetic to educate the young children. These pioneers had high ideals, and as soon as a little community was formed, steps were taken to organize a school and a church. Every settler contributed his share toward the building materials and the salaries of the teacher and the minister. This collection was the beginning of the present school tax system. The first important teacher was John Filson, who sug- gested 'the name of Losantiville for this present city of Cincinnati. While Filson was engaged in laying out a new subdivision in the wilderness fnow near the corners of Fifth and Elm streetsj he was killed or carried off by the Indians, and was never heard of again. Twenty years from this time, there were several schools and school mas- ters. Cincinnati was the first city, formed from the Northwest Territory, to start a school. The very first school was a log cabin built at Columbia-now a part of Cincinnati-in 1790. The first public school was on the river bank and the second one was on Sycamore street near Fifth street. The first model school was built in 1833, and this was the beginning of nine other schools all built alike. The land was usually acquired by donations or by the city school board buying it. At first, ordinary rooms were rented in which the classes were held. As the population increased, the city was divided into five wards, each Yfmgdone, 193 9 i911 ward into two districts. A 4'Board of Trustees and Visitorsw was formed to regulate the school hours, the courses, and the teachers' salaries. The board decided that the people should be taxed in order to pay the school expenses. This board remained until 1878 when uThe Board of Education was sub- stituted as the official title. About 1820, there was the beginning of our very excellent system of education. Our present schools have progressed greatly since the stuffy little red school house with its oaken benches, the scanty dozen well-thumbed books, the willow Whips in the rack and the uneducated master. Our modern schools offer a great variety of subjects. A few of these are Foreign languages, English, sciences, mathematics, history and current events, manual training and art. Besides the schools for the healthy boys and girls there are special schools for the blind, the deaf, the crippled and other problem children. In 1847 the first high school was established in the basement of a church on Walnut street. There were ninety-seven attendants. Three years later Woodward and Hughes were started, which was the beginning of our very fine high schools. ln 1930 the Trustees and Visitors had a meeting and drew up the fol- lowing rules: 1. The scholars must all keep their hands, faces and clothes clean. 2. They must not stop to play or loiter on the way, coming to or going from school. 3. While in school they must obey their teachers and the rules of the school. 4. They must make no unnecessary noise. 5. Must attend closely to their studies. 6. Must not study aloud. 7. Must not talk or Whisper to each other. 8. Must not leave their seats without permission. 9. Must always speak the truth. 10. Must not quarrel or injure each other. 11. Must not use profane or indecent language. 12. Must be polite and respectful at all times to every one. These rules can be applied to the schools of today as well as to those of one hundred years ago. BETTY ALLEN, Eighth Grade WL wrong, 193 Q l92l Music of Early Cincinnati Among the middle-western cities, Cincinnati has always been foremost in the field of music. The first music of Cincinnati was produced, in 1795, by a band of French and German players at Fort Washington. The Commander, General Wilkinson, hired this band to play there with the hope of bringing a little gayety into the dismal life at the fort. This same band played the marches for a July Fourth parade. At this time, a noted Scotchman, Thomas Kennedy, was entertaining the people with his violin. Mr. Kennedy, one of the earliest musicians in Losantiville, delighted all with his gay Scotch tunes. Later he moved across the river to a town which bore his name, Kennedy's Ferry. It is noxLthe city of Covington. In the year 1808 great strides were being made in the progress of our early music. The first organ was built by Reverend Adam Hurdus in the early nineteenth century. Already many residents had acquired pianos. Unfor- tunately there was at this time only one piano tuner, who combined his tun- ing with piano instruction. By 1815 Societies were organized. The first was the Harmonical Society, which furnished music during the intermission of performances in the thea- tres. This society also organized the first citizenas brass band. The follow- ing year the HSL Cecilian Society was founded. It was the first society of any real significance but few facts are known concerning it. We do know, however, from Greveis 46History of Cincinnatiu that it was 'cdevoted to the delightful strains of the piano and the improvement and practice of its fair votaries in the cwitching powers of song'.,' The Episcopal Singing Society now began to meet at Christ Church. Also the Haydn Society was formed of singers selected from different societies in the city. The pioneer period of early music in Cincinnati came to an end about 1820. Much music was used to celebrate Lafayette's visit to Cincinnati. Joseph Tossa was asked to conduct the orchestra while Lafayette remained here. Mr. Tossa, a Mexican, had recently returned from the Paris Conservatory. He was acclaimed by music-lovers everywhere and upheld high standards in his selections for the concerts. The Eclectic Academy of 1834 concentrated on bettering the tastes of the people and on securing more religious music. This academy had a twenty-four piece orchestra and an extremely able leader in the Swedish Victor Williams. During the Civil War, Mr. Williams did much for the extension of musical instruction in the public schools. He presented the first oratorio to Cincinnati in old Melodeon Hall. In 1864, after the Eclectic Academy and Haydn Society disappeared, a new society Wham, 193 9 i931 was founded. From Leonie C. Frank's book uMusical Life in Early Cincin- nati, we find that: uThe legitimate successor of these two societies was the brilliant, proud Gllarmonic Society of Cincinnatif under direction of Mr. Carl Barns. This fine organization had a humble beginning back in 1800, with a small choral school and later with a chorus of two hundred and fifty members. The credit for this progress, writes Miss Frank, must not go entirely to the Cincinnatians, but to the Germans. HQuietly but impressively they had been exerting an immense influence over the musical character of the city. From early days they had fostered music in the home, church and societies. It was part of their lifef, At last a professional orchestra was hired, putting an end to all amateur ones. The first one lasted but a short time and was fol- lowed in 1872 by the MCincinnati Orchestraf, one having forty instruments. The beginnings of the May Festivals were in 1864. Music Hall was espe- cially built for these Festivals. They originated from several societies com- bining as one. The first May Festival was successfully performed in 1873 with Theodore Thomas as conductor. Mr. Thomas did a great deal to make the Festivals successful. 1-le will long be remembered for his distinguished work. Through the Festivals Cincinnati gained great distinction and fame. Later two other fine institutions were developed: The College of Music and the Conservatory of Music. Little did the early founders know that these musical institutions would still be playing in 1939 an important part in the musical knowledge of Cincinnati. Since the time of the small band at the fort, Cincinnati has constantly progressed in musical culture. This back- ground was developed by outstanding personalities who gave all their talent and enthusiasm to this task. Those men and women made Cincinnati what it is today, a leading city in the musical activities of the United States. MARTHA ANN GOODYEAR, 1941 Four Le'Hers My, what a bleak, raw day! I leaned back in the arm chair and thought, if I could only be in Florida with a hot sun beating down, how glorious it would feel. Florida? Oh yes, Father wanted me to get those Florida let- ters out and look through them. I arose from my chair and got out an old box of family letters. Most of the letters were over a hundred years old. They varied from love letters to business letters. There was one group that contained a correspondence between my great- Wt atm, 1939 l94l great-grandmother and her husband. The letters were written before they were married. They wrote of their plans for the wedding and wedding jour- ney. I read these letters with some qualms of conscience, as I hardly thought my great-great-grandmother and grandfather would have liked their love let- ters to be read. The next letters in the box almost powdered in my hand. Even picking them up very gently, a corner here or there fell off. Next were some letters about business matters, and, as these did not interest me, I passed on. At the bottom of the box, I found four letters, written in the same handwrit- ing. The ink had turned brown and the paper was old ivory, but even so, these letters were unusually legible. The handwriting also impressed me as being very neat andglegilile, although the double s was made like an f, as was then the custom. They were, I discovered, from my great-great-uncle, William Hardia. Two of these letters were written to his sister, my great- grandmother, and two of them to his father, my great-great-grandfather. Great-great-uncle William had graduated from West Point and had imme- diately been sent to Florida to fight in the Seminole Indian War. Our four letters were written at the time he was in Florida. The first letter was dated the fourth of ,I une, 1838, and was addressed to his sister. He had been in Florida nine months when this was written, and he was very homesick for Kentucky. He wrote: HI am extremely anxious to get out of this country, but at present see no hope for itf' Then followed an account of some pets he had collected. The pets consisted of a fawn and three owls. Evidently at this time my great-grandmotlier was becoming in- terested in my great-grandfather, because William Hardia wrote: '6If you promise not to get married, I will send you the whole concernf' His next statement proves that men were very much then as they are now. He writes: HThe Florida girls are so hideously ugly that I cannot fall in love with them- knowing how susceptible I am, you can readily imagine how very ugly they must bef' The second letter was written to his Father, and, even if the salutation had been lost, I am sure I should have known anyway. This letter is in a much more serious vein. He wrote this soon after returning from an expedition up the St. ,Iohn,s River. The Indians had left this section and he believed that they had gone to the Okefenoka Swamps in Georgia. These swamps are almost impenetrable and even now are used as a hiding place for a great many animals. He had at this time been appointed Acting Assistant Ad- jutant General. Wigan., 193 9 I95l The third letter was written to his sister the last part of July. In this let- ter, for the first time, he speaks of real harm ,done by the Indians. He writes that not occasionally do they hear of murders committed upon the whites. The Colonel of his division has decided to make a vigorous effort immedi- ately to wipe out all trace of the Enemy. Even though the heat of the sun is most oppressive, they are leaving that day. Also, for the first time, he speaks of death. He writes: nThe weather being so unfavorable, Officers, Soldiers and horses must suffer severely. Some of us doubtless will fall victims to the consequent hardships and exposures. I don't say this, my dear sister, to make you uneasy, but in order to prepare you for any bad news, should sick- ness or death overtake me. He also tells in this letter of being highly hon- ored by the Colonel, who has now made him Adjutant ad-interim of the Second Dragoon. This, however, will necessarily keep him busier. Even with the fact that he was kept busier, I feel sure that he wrote fairly often, but the next letter we have, was not written until the fourteenth of Feb- ruary, 1839. By this time he was much more depressed, because three ex- press riders had been shot in the past three weeks. However, the company had captured fifteen more Indians, and he had been made a First Lieutenant. He was now in east Florida in command of Fort Harlei, with a civilian popu- lation of some thirty families. Of these he writes: HI have about me enough loafers to supply the world. In making the last assertion, I am not wide of the mark. His sister had been married by this time and there was such a sisterly and brotherly devotion between the two that, I think, he felt almost jealous. She was so fond of him that she named her first son, my grandfather, William Hardia, in spite of the fact that for three generations on her husband's side, the first son had always been named John. So went the Seminole Indian War in 1839. Today in 1939, I read that the Seminoles, still technically at war with the United States, are suing for peace. They live, five hundred strong, at present in the Florida Everglades. And when I think of the time those letters took to reach my great-grandmother and great-great-grandfather, it seems truly incredible that today, by plane, you can reach Florida in seven hours. ISABEL MACKOY, 1940 W wrong, 193 Q I96l An Old Stone House Near Loveland, Ohio, a road winding up a hill, shaded by trees, merges into a clearing, where juts a house built of stone. This house has weathered one hundred and twenty years of springs, summers, autumns, and winters. It is built of native stone, limestone, which was gotten from the creek that meanders and turns at the foot of the hill. Near by the house, stands a barn made of huge beams, with knotholes large enough for the birds to build their nests in. In the summer the birds fly noiselessly from beam to rafter in the dusty, warm interior, while outside the sparrows chatter noisily while flitting in and out of the green vine that covers halfway the sides of the barn. . 7 7 L . The east and west walls are flanked by squat chimneys. Upon entering, we are greeted by a warm glow issuing from the fireplace. Against the flames is silhouetted a large crane from which hang darkened pots and kettles. Fram- ing this is a white mantel upon which rests a square old-fashioned clock and a pair of bee-hive candlesticks. From the center of the room is suspended a lamp which can be raised or lowered as desired. Over the doors, guns rest on turkey feet with upturned toes. This is the living room. A narrow staircase leads to the upper story of the house. There are only two bedrooms and each contains a huge bed with posts and backs that reach to the ceiling. To get into one of these beds one must either have long legs or use a chair. A few chairs, tables and chests complete the furnishings of these two rooms. The floors, which sag slightly from age, are of oak planks, as are those of the downstairs. From the windows is a commanding view of fertile fields fringed with virgin woods. ln the evening, a blue-white mist arises from the valley and floats out upon these fields making them appear as if they were a calm lake in the twilight. On the surrounding grounds, is a seven trunked elm tree with a spread of about thirty feet. Under this Indians played and camped, for they left be- hind arrows and machettes, and signs on beech trees in the near by woods. In another direction from the house is a locust grove. ln the spring time this grove is transformed into a lovely and beautiful bower. From the dark branches are suspended fragrant bunches of white flowers, which give forth a heavy, sweet scent. When a slight breeze stirs, there is the perfume of these flowering trees over the whole hill side. Near by this lovely glen are vegeta- ble and flower gardens, from which are gathered beautiful blooms for vases and ripe vegetables for the table. Wdafm, 193 9 f97l 1, .5 Almost surrounding this house are shrubs and trees which make a lovely at background for this old home. Flanking the front of the house is a hill side i containing an orchard, in Which all kinds of fruit trees blossom. Here in the 'spring is a terrestrial heaven. After the blossoms drop their petals, little 'bulb-like things appear and in time become lush peaches, juicy apples, and delicious pears. These are gathered in the fall and stored in the low- i' ceilinged third floor. In these lovely quiet surroundings, I spend my summers, sunning and re- cuperating for the next year,s study.

A baseball game was scheduled but due to the kindness of Hold man weatherl' towards the Faculty, it turned out to be a deck tennis game. Oddly enough while the sun was shining and the game was still scheduled as baseball, the Faculty were secretly practicing deck-tennis in the gymnasium. Now lim not implying anything but ah-. At any rate, the girls were opposed by ten beaming teachers of knowledge. The star of the Faculty team was Miss Jean Walsh, who acquired her skill in this sport last summer on board the Reina del Pacijco on her way to South America. Other members of this team were Miss Carey, the general manager, Miss Jones, who received a private lesson in serving in the middle of the game, and Miss Hunting, who forgot her Hveni, vidi, vici and entered whole-heartedly into the game. Also Misses King, Faran and Park partici- pated. Miss Kemper was very excited and showed this several times by jumping up and down. Her serve had an intricate wind-up and thoroughly bafHed some of the opposing side. I think Mademoiselle Tripet deserves a hand. That was her first time to play the game. Mrs. Gavian seemed to have trouble catching the ring with only one hand. The girls who played on the Student team were chosen by the Blue and Gold Captains, Ann Campbell and Barbie Feid, respectively. They were as follows: from the seventh grade, Olivia Ramsey, Mary Whittaker and Jeanne Pogueg from the eighth grade, Franny Craydon, Emmy Allen, Laura Stewart and Robin Thomas, from the Freshman Class, Margie Littleford, Peggy Lillard and Janet McDevitt, from the Sophomore Class, Lucy Graydon, Patsy Pogue and Margie McCullough, from the Junior Class, Dorothy Koehler, Gloria Wainsley and Barbie Feidg and from the Senior Class, Harriet Woods, Cynthia Ault, and Paula Maue. The referee was Miss Alice Hkeep the score Hill from the Sophomore Class. The teams were lined up by Miss Carey, who managed the Faculty team, and by Miss Feid and Campbell, who managed the Students. Their respect for the Faculty was shown when the Students gave the honor of serving to them. Mademoiselle Tripet was the first server. The ring skimmed over the net and many white arms reached up to receive it. One of these outstretched hands received it and threw it back to the other side. This kept up until one of the sides lost the point. One interesting thing to watch in a deck-tennis game is the coordination of the muscles. While Wiliam, 193 9 llO3l the ring is being played, almost every player keeps her legs and feet moving in place. This is so that she will always be on the alert if the ring comes towards her. Every muscle is in perfect rhythm when a player reaches for the ring, catches it, and throws it back. I think it is a very interesting game to watch. Miss Kemper, Miss Carey and Miss Walsh made some excellent plays during the first game but even with these, the Faculty was beaten by the Students, fifteen to six. HCalifornia sunshine, Arizona cactus, They play the students just for practice,'7 was shouted by the onlookers. After a few minutes the Faculty was up and 'crarin to gof, This next game proved fatal to the students, who were beaten fifteen to twelve. The students began to think that this was getting to be too much of a good thing when the Faculty were leading in the third game. They were cheered from the sidelines but this did not seem to do much good, for the Faculty won the last exciting game, fifteen to fourteen. A shout went up from the sidelines and the Faculty was given a rousing cheer for its good work. After the games were played, several new school songs were sung which were very good. One of them was to the tune of HAnchors Aweighn written by Florence Ginn and ,lanet McDevitt on the Washington trip last year. It went as follows: uHurrah for C.P.S. she goes marching on, Down through the many years, pupils Have come and gone, So while we still are here, we shall Do our best, climbing to higher fame for Good old C.P.S.,' The teachers were in a happy state as they left the school that day. I think, and so do many others, that it was a huge success. Letls have another next year! MARJORIE McCULLoUc11, 1941 Deck Tennis A picturesque game if you know how to watch The flashing of legs and the stretching of arms, That lend to the thrill of the catch of the ring. The joy on the face of the player you see, And know she is happy in tune with her being, Wliile we on the sidelines can just sit and cheer.

A11 classes took part. A very fast and admirable baseball game followed with the Blues winning 34 to 3. An alfresco supper was served on the front lawn. Miss Felton, of the Physical Education De- partment, is certainly to be congratulated on her management of the entire program and the classes are to be thanked for their grand cooperation. E. B. J., 1939 School Dance Monday, June 13, 1938, the Freshman Class gave a dance in honor of the outgoing Senior Class. The gym was gaily decorated with balloons and gay streamers . . . and a peppy orchestra provided music for the dancers. Mrs. Gavian's Room was converted, for the occasion, into a smoking room where a delicious punch was served. The chaperones were Miss Stewart, Mrs. Alexander, Miss Howell, Mrs. McCullough, Mrs. Pogue, and Mrs. Avery. The merry-makers departed declaring it was indeed a wonderful dance. E. B. J., 1939 The Intermediate School Party ln the autumn, we had a party for the new girls. We were supposed to come as advertisements. There were to be prizes for the Hprettiestf' the ufunniestf, and the umost original, and the Hmost accuratei' costumes. There was a very large selection of costumes, and they were all good. The prize for the uprettiesti' was won by Deborah Wilder. The prizes for the ufunniestw were given to Joan Balyeat and Lila Gantt. The most original costumes were worn by Chastine Hardy and Barbara Carter. The most accurate costumes were worn by Shirley Lee Stuth and Patricia Armstrong. Deborah Wilder came as a Camay bride. Lila Gantt came as Aunt Jemima, and ,loan Balyeat was Charlie McCarthy. Chastine Hardy represented the Sympathy Orchestra, and Barbara Carter was a South Sea Islander. We played a few games and had ice cream and cake. Everybody had a wonderful time. LILA GANTT, Sixth Grade W wrong, 193 9 11261 New Girls Pa rty On Saturday, October 22, the new girls of C.P.S. were warmly welcomed by the old girls at a luncheon. The lunchroom was gaily decorated in Hallowelen colors. These decorations were done by the Sophomores who also made favors for each new girl and each new teacher. After luncheon our ingenious teachers had a contest-not an ordinary contest, I assure you. Every teacher had on display a charming baby picture of herself and there was much hilarity in trying to identify them. The Freshmen then en- tertained us by giving a skit. This skit showed us how the teachers would buy a hat. We then had the Freshman trial and after much poor singing fsome good, thoughj we bid farewell to our guests and all proclaimed it was a grand introduction to C.P.S. E. B. J., 1939 THE LOWER SCHOOL'S CHRISTMAS PLAY Jesus Est Ne On Friday, December 16, the parents of the girls in the Primary and Intermediate Departments, and the High School students were invited to see the French Christmas play written and directed by Mademoiselle Proullaud and produced by the Primary and Intermediate girls. The play, given in the gymnasium, was enjoyed by a large number of parents and students. The French scenes were beautifully done, and the old French carols very lovely. The following girls participated in the production: First Scene The field where the shepherds lay. It is Norman June Beucus Joan Balyeat Nancy Jane Fry Priscilla Harrison Olivia Ramsey Lavinia Grimes Sandra Hauck Elizabeth Legg Eliza Lloyd Nancy Louise Nelson Billie Hanson Polly Keck the day of Christmas Shepherds Shirley Beck Marcia Finn Shirley Stuth Mary Whittaker Barbara Weaver Mary Van Antwerp Angels l127l Patricia Armstrong Carol Carrier Chastine Hardy Mary Ives Anne Upson Ann Vail Deborah Wilder Wh eafone, 193 9 Second Scene Public Square of Bethlehem.

Five little friends Faithful and true, If you are kind to them They will be kind to you. JOAN SULLIVAN, 1939 ll35l ymlfmfone, 193 9 Class Prophecy Miss Jean Howell was entertaining the faculty members of C.P.S. W- just those members who had sighed with relief when the class of '39 was ushered out forever. All were remarking about the great lapse of time - 20 years - since they had last heard of '39, They were brought from their depression by Miss Howellas announcement that a famous magazine, put out by the Florida Chamber of Commerce fadvatj had written a brief note about each girl of this class. Delving further into the matter it was discovered that the very able publicity manager for this Worthy publication was Cynthia Ault. As a side line Cyn. runs a MSun Tanneryg' where those Northern gals can get a lush tan during that one week in Florida. Incidentally, Cyn. also mar- ried that glue man she used to rave about. Flipping over a few pages Miss Howell came upon the Science Department of the magazine. She almost hurried by fthinking that Science as seen through a Florida Magazineis eye would hardly interest her guestsj but sud- denly a familiar name caught her attention. t'Oh girls! she shrieked, Betty Boxilll and in print tool It seemed that our little chum Boxill has distinguished herself by discovering several valuable things in her field of laboratory technician work. Box always was the girl to ferret things out. HStrange, remarked a faculty member, HBetty is such a little girl to be doing such great big thingsf, But theyire wrong because after Betty gradu- ated she stuck to those silly little pills and is now a ugianta' of 5 ft. 5 in. On a page appropriately titled uFootlight and Grease Paintn a dazzling figure stared up at our friends. With a gasp they discovered that it was Ann Campbell scoring another triumph as Nora in a strictly modern version of uDoll's House. The faculty members looked around and each one had a glint in her eye that plainly said ul told you sol Remember Ann in '4Overtones?,, I knew she was headed for stardomf This fact made clear, Miss Howell went deeper into our magazine. Quote on page 28, HMiss Elizabeth Clancey, the well-known teacher of Art, has been doing great things with her pupils. Miss Clancey will have an ex- hibit of the pupils, work on August 15th, and a large crowd is sure to gather for this great occasion. Tea will be served. Genuine approval was given by the teachers to Elizabethis success in life. A few pages on and there Miss Howell saw a notice-uMadam Boois Great Salon which meant absolutely nothing to her. But further on she saw the light. Madame Boo was none other than Brooks Johnstone who runs the worldis most glamourous reducing salon. It is said that her work is guaranteed and her clientele is immense. All of her classmates patronize her salon and people say that great shrieks of laughter penetrate the place when they get to chatting about their high school days. Upon discovering the business activities of Miss Johnstone several teachers resolved to take the next train for Florida and see what she could do for them. HMarjorie King, the lovely-voiced girl who is now singing at the Whooper W, arm, 193 Q l136l Dooper Club, has been prevailed upon to stay with us for another month, - mulnbled Miss Howell flooking on Page 421. Q'To thinkv gasped our friend, HI always thought Marjorie was a rather quiet child-but singing in a night club disproves that theoryli' Of course to the class of '39 it was disproved long before this. Thumbing through a few more pages our friends came upon a choice bit of news. Paula Maue, who always was a peppy gal, was now conducting classes in grace and charm for smart girls. It is said that Paula never could stop walking on her toes and you can spot one of her pupils by that peculi- arity of walk. This brand of toe walking known as the MMane Tripi' has become quite popular in the past few years and do we feel low for trying to discourage Paula's youthful habit! s aifnllflength picture of a gorgeous gal, Ruth Ober- helman to her childhood friends. But Ruth had snagged herself a man with a long foreign name and was now the best dressed woman in the universe. a'Ob', also was known for that figure which we used to envy at C.P.S. Of course you know how she kept that figure. Vlfhy, of course, by patronizing Madame Bools Salon fAdv,t.j ln 4'Visitors To Our Happy City was found a note about Barbara Pogue. 4'My, sighed the Teachers, HBarbara certainly did well for herself.-,lust think, happily married and with five beautiful childrenf, Babs cut quite a figure after she left college but finally settled down and is now the epitome of domesticity. In the section distractingly titled HUps and Downsn our friends saw a picture of ,loan Sullivan receiving another prize for winning several firsts in a Horse Show. ln a brief paragraph written by the winner Josie says: HI got my training as a school girlf, and now the teachers know where Josie spent her time instead of coming to school. But no matter- she,s done well for herself. But lol Art, Art, and more Art l I l Ruth Wagner, who had upull-en-tyw of Talent at C.P.S. has just been elected the most talented of American Artists. Ruth had loads of fun following up her life long ambition. Sur- prising as it may seem she too patronizes Madame Boois Salon fadvltj be- cause in the past few years she had put on all that weight we always wished she would. On the past page of our magazine entitled HViews on Educational Mattersn is a paragraph which tells the Teachers about the activities of Harriet Woods. Harr was always a brain trust yiknow and after successfully making her own children brain trusts she has started a tutoring bureau guaranteeing to make dull kiddies brain trusts. If it were anyone but Harr we might doubt it but .... ln fact l think Babs has sent two of her children to the Woods B. T. School and it has worked beautifully. With a thnd the magazine clattered to the floor and the faculty members just looked around in amazement and one was heard to remark- uVVho'd a thunk it!,' WLM., 193 Q f137l Wiimfone, 193 9 Thanksgiving Cobble! Cobble! do not fear, They are turkeys that you hear. Heads are up, tails are down, But they make a terrible sound. Do not look so perky, You innocent turkey. By and by we will feast, On your good turkey meat. BARBARA CARTER, Sixth Grade Each Morning Ten minutes to eight, Then a walk and a wait, A red light in the distance, I guess I'm not late. I get on the bus, And at first all is calm, Then the scurrying starts ,Iust a few miles beyond. Pretty soon there's a hustle, They step on my toes, And my books start to fall, And the multitude grows. There is room for no more, We are packed like sardines. A word to my neighbor Makes the trip more serene. Iim approaching the end, As I push my way on There's a rush for my seat And I wonder who won. I drag into school, Throw my books just pell-mell And then as I start to rest There goes the bell! DEEDEE ALLEN, 1941 H381 The School Clock At nine A.M. the school clock sees A group that looks in need of sleep. From then 'til two they sit and yawn, Like caverns of the ocean deep. By half past two the clock sees not The sleepy gaze which watched its face, But in its stead each wide-eyed girl Is ready there to dash apace. PATSY POGUE, 1941 Once Cver Lightly Sanders Maxwell raised his baton, Softly the music began to play Slowly the light faded into oblivion The excited audience became calm Only music was heard Sliding softly along. The curtain rose Indians paraded across the stage To the definite rhythm of the drums They began to chant their song of woe About two lovers. The chorus danced and whirled by, Action swiftly took place The plot became involved. Two lovers were united The excited audience became calm, Only soft music could be heard, Sanders Maxwell lowered his baton.

Such strife as this has been endured By great and small of ages past, Soon would I speak my last word Before my doom was set at last. Mary of Scots, and Charles the First, Lady ,Iane Grey-this galaxy of names Who have undergone the worst Strikes terror to my chilling veins. Right to left, slowly swinging, The blade glided, left and right, My heart beat faster, my ears were ringing, With this cruel, appalling sight. The pendulum kept that steady rhythm, At two o'elock was the hand, My last words were 'Tuck be with 'emla' As I left the roof for history Mexamv, PATTE KNOTH, 1940 It 1401 X Complimenfs of ALMS HOTEL ir Complimenfs of EDWARD C.
