Today our good ship 25 set sail from the old port Childhood with colors flying and fair weather ahead. We lifted anchor and sailed out at nine a. m. Professor Woodard as captain, Miss Munson as first mate and the following seventeen eager passengers were on board: Howard Anderson, Ollie Buckmaster, Elizabeth Crouse, Nora Hughes, Maurine Hauck, Harry Landis, Darleen Long, Kelly Porter, Thelma Reynolds, Mary Rupp, Gertrude Scott, Catherine Turner, Kathryn Vail, Lester Var- ner, Erwin Waldman and Gretchen Woods. For a few days some of our passengers were victims of that dreaded malady-sea sickness. On recovering and after smooth sailing, we all arrived safely in the harbor of First Grade where Ruth Feary, Arthur Heumann and Lester Paul Schick were anxiously waiting to join us. Here, too, Miss Bogan was made our first mate. September 5, 1916. Today we made the port of Third Grade and here Professor Moritz was made captain of our ship. Under his steady guidance we sailed unharmed through the stormy waters, and anchored in port High School. At various ports along the way, Mercedes Taege, Harold Wickersham, Arthur Schroeder, Elva Shaffer, John Anstine, Glema Gembler, Cornelia Gans, Anna Hartman, Marian Hadley and Louis Lukert were taken on board as passengers. In plowing our way from High School to our destina- tion through rough and dangerous waters, with Miss Jones as first mate and Miss Graves as second mate, Miss Hogg, Miss Olson, Miss Skudler and Mr. Williams were enlisted as part of the crew. Due to the fine weather and their adventurous nature Florence Coffey, Albert Ebers, Mary Pape, Catherine Reynolds, Margaret Reuter, Emma Vogt and George Fuchshuber decided to accompany us on our voyage. ' September 1, 1923. Because two of the crew forsook our good old ship 25 Miss McMonies and Miss Wills were assigned their places, while Dorothy Gordon, Harold Meyers and Howard Scheer were added to our number. Q September 1, 1924. As many large breakers were seen in the distance and heavy clouds were hanging overhead we stopped to get new supplies and wait for the storm to pass. However, as it showd no signs of doing so and we had to reach our destination at a set date, we lifted anchor and left our haven. But though there were dangers ahead we felt much comforted and relieved for Loleta Applegate, Fred Duerr, Marie Jorgensen, Edna Mumm, Jerrold Pavel, Mae Soss, Elvin Wendt, Rose Winters, Dorcas Weatherby and Catherine Meyer came to our aid. Mr. Williams assumed the duty of first mate, with i 'd5-9 l PAGE 'rss ENTY om: E1 1' X N . :H gl xc DEH! li. I, ,, - ju c 11 U1 . f- 'zfi-t',-..,-.

Our good ship hadn't gone far when we heard a ter- rific peal of thunder, and the storm descended upon us in all its fury., When it passed we found our way blockaded by a pirate ship 24. As we did not wish to be delayed there was nothing for us to do but to fight. It was a hard fierce struggle but we finally came out victorious. Still not being satisfied, in' real pirate fashion they hurried us until we came to another confiict in which we again came out with colors flying. Then, not having any ill feeling toward them, we spread a great banquet in their honor, which pleased them so greatly that We parted friends. September 1, 1925. After a storm there is always a calm and this was much in our favor for we still had some distance to, cover before we reached our last port. We also had to make some changes in our crew. Mr. Feelhaver was assigned first mate, Miss Hogg second and Miss Stenger was added to the list of assistants. Then, because they had heard of our splendid record, Franklin Dally, Frank Maixner, Vlasta Stransky, Alfred Hughes, Les- ter Stovick, Keith Marshall and Mildred Reynolds asked to join us. We willingly took them aboard and set sail, everyone determined to make our last port with a long pull, a strong pull and a pull together. We sailed along but before we had gone far we en- countered a fieet of ships all headed for the same port as we were. One of the fleet- the ship of 26 -challenged us to a race and, although we were the morehtried and experienced sailors, we had to acknowledge ourselves the losers. The winners, however, later recognizing our true worth, honored us with a royal feast which captain, crew and passengers all greatly enjoyed. As we were now nearing our last port- Port Commencement --some of the passengers entertained, according to custom, their friends and the crew with a play, Daddy Long Legs. After this all was rush and ex- citement aboard as our port was in sight and everyone was anxious to land, while at the same time, sorry to leave their fellow passengers. We knew that our friends would be there tougreet, welcome and compliment us after our long and successful voyage. We knew, also, that they would give us words of encouragement and best wishes for our succe-ss in the larger and harder voyage that lay ahead of each one of us.

The movie ball mixer, our first social event, Upon arriving, we to our feelings gave vent In a number of yells both peppy and loud, Which quite astonished the rest of the crowd. We stayed late that night and won second prize And the next morn found trouble in trying to rise. Our Sophomore year with Miss Heldt at the head, We found nothing to fear, but something to dread, In an orgy of themes we Houndered around, But on the door of true knowledge continued to pound. On the ship of Geometry, we struck a rough sea And grew so despondent we all took to tea. H We distinguished ourselves in the high school track meet By performing with agility athletic feats. We took home the banner and everyone declared In honor and triumph both boys and girls shared. At our party that year we had plenty of fun For each learned their fortune for years to come. As Juniors we attempted to act quite superior, And thought other classes all very inferior. Now we look forward to a good debate, In which both the Juniors and Seniors orate, That we will win it, we are not sure, But if we lose, our fate we'll endure. As a farewell to the Seniors we intend to give, A banquet, which will long in their memory live, We are their successors and heirs to their throne We all promise faithfully not to be dronesg So ends the tale of our three years sojourn, And our place in the assembly we hope we will earn. 3 Myra Gannon.

X Then it was the Freshmen boys, Brought more honor to the class- With their basketball they showed us They were leaders in this fun.

With sinking hearts, they passed through the ordeal of registration. Each of them received a slip, on which were strange heiroglyphics. These they deciphered with Miss Meyer's assistance. But, strange to tell, these same timid Freshmen are now the self-assertive, aggressive Class of '28, with a smooth-running organization made possible by the aid of their sponsor, Miss Meyer. The Class chose as officers: President ..... . Irving Francis Vice-President .... . . Nease McGrew Secretary and .Treasurer . . Marthajane Woods The Class of '28 is not an exceptional class, nor a collection of budding geniuses, but just the usual group of healthy, active and ambitious Freshmen. This Class acquitted itself very creditably in both physical and mental pursuits. In all the branches of athletics they have shown some proficiency. They gave their best effort which resulted in a basketball team and a number of boys taking part in foot- ball. The girls ranked high in gymnasium. This Freshmen Class was honored with the second prize in the football poster con- test, in which the entire school was included. They lived up to their reputation in Glee Club and also in Y. W. C. A. work, for over three-fourths of the girls joined. This is a privilege just given to the Freshmen girls of '24 and '25. They have shown their appreciation by joining and making this a real Y. W. C. A. year. Many of the Freshmen boys belong to the Hi-Y . One more event to be remembered of which this entire Class is proud, is the nam- ing of the 1925 Annual the Sewardonian of the Seward High School. This name was suggested by Robert Schick of the Freshmen Class. This Class has not made such remarkable records, but it has given its best efforts and shown a good spirit.

A varied program was arranged for the purpose of inspiring the members to live according to the above stated ideals. Talks on vocations were given by prominent pro- fessional men. Short interesting Bible discussions and character studies, led by some of Seward's pastors, or sometimes by a member of the club, furnished the more serious part of the program. Plenty of wholesome entertainment was provided by members of the different classes. The success of the Hi-Y has been largely due to the work and efort of Mr. Burk- hard, who loves boys and who has had much experience with them.

A. organization of Seward High School played a vital part in every school girl's life this year. The society seemed brimming over with pep and enthusi- asm. The year's work started at a summer conference held by the cabinet and their ad- visors, down at Oak Wood Park, in cabin Linger A While. The program for the school year was made, also plans for creating a true Christian fellowship among the girls of Seward High School. The school year started with a whir and a bang. During the first week we held our Membership Campaign which was indeed a victory for we succeeded in getting 100 members, all the girls being eager to join. By the hearty and eager co-operation of all our members we have been enabled to take charge of certain special convocationsg namely, Armistice Day Program, which was declared a hit by all because of the patriotic way in which the history of the United States was portrayed through tableaux scenes. The Y. W. girls also had charge of the Thanksgiving day program which was furnished by the grade children, sponsored by Miss Anderson. During the second semester a competition between classes was engaged in to see who could produce the most entertaining and original meeting. We found this method a valuable means for making each girl feel her responsibility in Y. W. work. Besides these monthly meetings there were held a Fathers' and Daughters' Banquet, a Mothers' Day Vesper Tea and other interesting and inspiring meetings. This school year is at a close, therefore Y. W. work for this year is also drawing to a close. It is an organization which can never die because it stands for the very highest Christian ideals and morals, which help to build the pure and noble woman- hood of our country.

The affirmative was upheld by the Seniors who were represented H by Elizabeth Crouse, Arthur Schroeder and Harold Meyers. Kathryn Vail was the P1 alternate. The Juniors upheld the negative. The debaters were Alice Ashton, Gene- vieve Moritz, Howard Townsend, with Warren Townsend alternate. The teams were well matched, the odds were even. The decision rendered by the judges was in favor of the negative. 'TJ The victors met the following week and clashed verbally with the debaters of David City High School. The Juniors again held the negative. On this occasion, how- -.1 ever, the affirmative won the decision.

The year nineteen hundred and twenty-five has been a very successful one for the band. When the band was organized in September, it was small and poorly arranged. As the year progressed, more boys joined and now we have, under the leadership of Mr. Feelhaver, a band of twenty-five pieces of which the school may well be proud. The band has played for football games, basketball games, and has entertained the assembly in convocation. Appealing as band music does to boy nature this department affords entertainment as well as musical education for its members, and deserves the attention and encouragement of everyone.

V1 FD! -f-- -- -- ill! it inn! it IU M nsic Department Music has been taught in the Seward Public Schools for more than fifteen years, but not until 1918 was instrumental music made a part of the Seward High School curriculum. The Seward Commercial Club rendered substantial financial assistance in introducing this phase of music in the Seward High School by jointly employing a band leader for the City and the Schools. The first effort along this line was the organization of a saxophone band in 1918. This proved to be a failure and the band was converted, the following year, from a saxophone organization to a military band. Both orchestras and bands have been de- veloped in the Seward School and under the able leadership of our High School Prin- cipal, C. T. Feelhaver, these organizations promise to furnish the City of Seward some high class musicians in the future. M anfaal Training Manual Training was first introduced in the Seward Schools in 1914. It was an experiment that was being tried out in the grades under the direction of David Jones, who acted as instructor of music and manual training in grades seven and eight. With the completion of the new High School building, two rooms had been speci- ally constructed for this particular phase of school work. Manual training courses were now revised to fit the needs for High School students and courses were oifered in grades nine and ten. 'The demand was so great that in less than two years the rooms built for manual training were inadequate to meet the needs of the increase in enroll- ment in this department and it was found necessary to abandon these rooms and move into the gymnasium for additional quarters. In 1920 the department was again enlarged to make provision for additional courses in mechanical drawing and machine work, including auto construction, forging and lathe work. No department in school has proven a more practical value than the Manual Training department. Eighty-eight students are now electing these courses and are receiving splendid training along the various lines. Home Economies Department Home Economics Department was introduced in the Seward Schools in 1916. Two rooms were especially constructed in the new High School building for the teaching of one year cooking and one year of sewing. In 1918 the Federal Government stimulated the training of girls for Home Keeping in our public schools by enacting a law known as the Smith-Hughes law to defray fifty percent of the cost of Home Economic in- struction in our public schools, providing the work was correlated with related sub- jects bearing on home training. The Seward Schools were recognized by the govern- ment and approved to offer the work in accord with the Federal plans, adding to this course, Home Management, Household Art, Agriculture and Physiology. Since the introduction of Home Economics in the Seward Schools it has been one of the most popular courses offered. At the present time sixty-three girls are re- ceiving instruction in this department. f-5 H 1:1 m an vm na un m is vm la in 55.25 PAGE SEVENTX FIVE Ill 0 Ill Normal Training Department In 1907 the Nebraska legislature enacted the Normal Training law which per- mitted High Schools in the state of Nebraska to offer special courses for the training of rural teachers. The State Department designated Seward as one of the Normal Training schools in 1908. Miss Frances Huntington was the first Normal Training teacher appointed in the Seward Schools. During the years that Normal Training has been offered in the Seward High School, 224 students have graduated in this course. The Seward School has rendered a real service to the rural schools of Seward County in the training of students preparatory to assuming the responsible work of teaching. The largest Normal Training class in the history of the school will graduate May 21st, 1925. Commercial Department The Commercial Department was introduced as an elective course in the Seward Schools in 1917. This was the first attempt to shape the course of study in the Public Schools to conform to the demands on the part of the community to teach subjects of practical value that students can use in making a livelihood. This course was both popular and successful from the standpoint of efficiency from the very start. Miss Josephine Dougan QMrs. Josephine Mickelj, an experienced teacher and one who had much practical business experience, organized the department in Shorthand, Typewriting, Bookeeping, Commercial Law and Business English. More students have registered in the Commercial Department than in any other department in school and many of the graduates are now serving in responsible posi- tions, both in Seward and elsewhere. Many students who otherwise would be put to great expense to secure their business training elsewhere, can now secure this train- ing at home undexy the most efficient and thorough instruction, second to none in the state.

Seward feels proud of the students who brought honors upon our school during the past three years that Seward has entered these contests. We have felt well satisfied with the number of honors won by our students. This year, however, Seward has made an extraordinary showing considering that more than two hundred and fifty stu- dents from the leading schools in the state participated in this scholastic contest. Examinations were given in the following eighteen subjects: Agriculture, algebra, bookkeeping, botany, civics, home economics, fsewing and cookingl, hygiene, history, geometry, geography, English, expression, extemporaneous speaking, spelling, manual training, physics. Q- Seward entered twenty-three students in eleven subjects and took fourteen medals E and one honorable mention. The following schools were winners in the contest: .
