Senior Annual 1903' ts South fiigb School Minneapolis mOttO: Eabor €st non £a$sus made By the Roycrofters mpi$ o THE CLASS OF ’o3: A STUDIOUS ONE. N glaring headlines we beheld in that well-known weekly, “The Minneapolis Telegram”—“The Pride of Prof. A. N. Ozias! Good Reasons for Showing It in Regard to Present Graduating Class at South High School.” It stated that the class this year was a record breaker, both as to size and scholarship. This is very true—for there are seventy-four in the class, and many of the students have attained to very high averages. The valedictorian is Marie Johnson, who has the remarkably high average 95-33- Rose Schussler, the salutatorian, is a close second, with 95.19. The others on the honor roll are as follows: Jennie Charlotte Lindquist 94,23, Blanche Wallace Scallen 94.15, Anna C. Dorothy Dahl 93.77. Helen E. Long 93.44, Claribelle Friedheim 92.85, Mildreth Janet Haggard 92.69, Nels John Vireen 92.68, Elsa Beryl Long 92.15, Gertrude Hanna Williams 91.69, Hilda Youngrcn 91.52, Jennie Harris 91.04, Celia Mildred Tannar 90.69, Charles Ernest Stover 90.67, Rose Weis-man, 90.12, Marie Nelson 90.09. A great number who have not quite reached ninety are still so very near that they deserve a great deal of credit as well as those more successful. Though the class is so bright and seemingly studious, Miss Watts was heard to say that there are only five dignified ones in the whole list. She did not mention any names, but we knew from the look in her eyes that she meant in aU probability Reuben Edquist, Harry Higgins, Harriet Brearley, Ernest Stover and Ellen Hall. Reuben and Harry, the bright, shining lights of Miss Marsh’s Virgil class: Harriet, the poetically and otherwise inclined one; Ernest, on the whole rather lazily inclined ; and Ellen, the pride and joy of Mr. Westerson’s United States History class. Like all other classes, it is composed of “all sorts and conditions” of young men and young women, but it is on the whole an excellent class, and doubtless no one will see its like again for many years. —Blanche Wallace Scallen. THE GATHERING OF THE CLANS N the midst of all this rejoicing and the praise which the class of ’03 is receiving, it really is a shame to mention it, but the truth of the matter is, this great and illustrious class has been condemned by outsiders for being clannish. And it must be admitted that the charge is true. The class contains all sorts of cliques, frats and sororities. Among these we see the “Seven American Classics,” “The Great Trio,” “The S. H. Quartette” and last but not least, the Phi Beta Sigma sorority and the Gamma Sigma fraternity. The first named “clan” consists of seven very studious and classical young ladies, who shine in all their classes. They are all on the honor roll and that you may recognize their works in future years, we herewith attach their names, Clara Friedheim, Rose Schussler, Anna Dahl, Mildreth Haggard, Gertrude Williams, Celia Tannar and Ella Long. The “Trio” consists of the most dignified (?) young ladies in the class, being Harriet Brearley, Ellen Hall and Blanche Scallen, all noted for the earnestness which they display in the pursuit of knowledge. Now, gentle reader, just to prove that there are a few boys in the class we speak of the great and only “S. H.” quartette. These four young gentlemen arc the pride and pet of Miss Marsh’s sixth period Virgil class. But for them the recitations would become monotonous and uninteresting. With their assistance however, things are kept moving. In their number we discover “Bob” Edquist, “Cheerful Charlie,” “Happy Harry,” and “Plain Old” Haslund. 4 The Phi Beta Sigma is the “baby” sorority of the school, and also the largest. It was organized only a few months before graduation and on its rolls we find the names of thirty-three senior girls, many of them famous on the rostrum, on the basket ball floor and in the class room. In their number we find both the valedictorian and the salutatorian. Miss Lula Stobbs is the leader of this group. The Gamma Sigma “frat” was founded in our Junior year and is the only fraternity in the school. Among its members we find the names of many famous athletes, orators and statesmen of South high school, having contributed all four presidents of the class of ’03. Although in the past year there has been an organized attempt to break up the “frat” it has weathered the storm and is now stronger than ever with the brightest possible prospects for a successful season next year. Eleven members of this industrious colony will graduate this year. AN ODE TO THE SENIORS I remember, I remember, When we first started in; We were but puny freshmen then, How young we must have been! We did not start a bit too soon, Nor make too long a stay; We’ve had an awful lot of fun, And hate to go away. I remember, I remember. When we were sophomores, Our courage often failed us then, Hard by the class-room doors. We studied Webster’s Rhetoric, And History by Myer; They both were curious looking things, I’ve seldom seen one dryer. 5 I remember, I remember, The Physics, our delight. The booklets and the “Pancoasts” red We loved with all our might! The class-room where the teacher drew Strange circles in the air; We’d like to skip this period, But, Oh! we didn’t dare! I remember, I remember, One time I didn’t flunk; The girls were eating candy then, And offered me a chunk. ’Twas but a piece of peppermint, But now ’tis little joy To know I’ll ne’er be treated more In school, by girl or boy. I remember, I remember, Demand for boys was great. We used to think their number small, And sadly mused on fate. But for their number, they, of course, Are never to be blamed; And of our boys we certainly Have never been ashamed. I’ll remember, I’ll remember, My class through thick and thin; Of her I always shall be proud, As I have always been. Her metal’s of the truest steel; And may it always be South High school's noblest, truest class, Dear class of 1903! —Mabel Marcella Parker, Class Poet. 6 EDITORIAL the first Senior annual published by a South has endeavored to print only those items which would render the book attractive as a reminder of the happy days in South Side’s “darksome halls” in which we left the “Clock.” In whatever way this annual may excel, credit should be given to the class poet, historian, prophets, the class day committee, and the associate editors, Harriet Brearley, Blanche Scal-len, Mildreth Haggard, Earle Lawler, Arthur Has-lund, and Irving Robitshek. Whatever blame there is should be laid up against the editor, Ernest Stover, for in this “Annual” he is the “root of all evil.” Whoever receives any “knocks” at our hands please pass them up as they are given, only in good natured fun. Whoever seeks vengeance please remember that the editor has left town. Whoever receives any flattery, please consider it as such, for we mean no harm. Whoever receives this book please accept it that you may keep it and keep it that you may remember the greatest of all classes, the Class of 1903. class for a number of years, the editorial 7 THE CLASS OF ’03—DRAMATIC AND LITERARY n a dramatic and literary line, the South high school is in the ascendancy. The pupils are more highly developed in this branch than any of the other schools. Judging by the preliminary contest, the Commencement program will include a very fine group of essays. Raymond Barse, a very ambitious young man, will speak very forcibly upon “Ambition.” We fear lest at times he shall become so passionate that his ambition will break all restraint and ascend to such heights as the characters of Milton to whom he will refer. The especial value of Nellie Leland’s essay lies in its practical common sense. Moreover, we can believe every word of it because Nellie practises all that she preaches. We shall be really surprised if she can leave her new baby brother, Gaston, long enough to graduate. Mabel Parker, the class poet, will give us the highly finished result of her efforts, an essay on historical novels. Mildreth Haggard, a very didactic young lady, will draw the veil from nature, and show us a few of its lessons. Reuben Edquist, one of the South High stars, and a very energetic worker, will deliver an oration on “The Dignity of Labor.” The flower of the program, however, will be Marie Johnson and Rose Schussler, who have attained to such remarkable scholarships. The workers in the Literary Society, though few, 8 are very energetic. The president, Reuben Edcjuist, is ably assisted by Lewis Bicknell. On Wednesday afternoon of each week, a very enjoyable program, generally consisting of a debate, an extemporaneous speech, an essay, and several musical numbers, is rendered by the members of the society. Arthur Anderson, distinguished for his powerful voice. Carl Huntington for his ease of manner, and Reuben Edcjuist for his skill at repartee, represented the school in the debating lists this year, and although the decision was not in our favor, we are confident that our speakers won the debate. As an instance of its activity, the Literary Society gave an oratorical contest, in which the Debate in Hell was quite an important number, and a banquet at which the literary people demonstrated their extraordinary capacity for assimilation. The Shakespeare Class and the Athletic Association have represented the class along dramatic lines. “Midsummer Night’s Dream” was a pronounced success if one can judge by the appreciation of the audience. Willis Newton, in the role of Moonshine, and Reuben Carlson as Thisbe, “took” immensely, but Reuben Edquist, as Bottom and later as Pyramus, made the “hit” of the day. At the benefit given by the Athletic Association, in “The Two Old Cronies.” Ernest Stover made a great “hit” as the champion smoker, and in “Box and Cox” Earle Lawler was the star as James Cox. Although the South High boasts expert mathematicians, physicists, and linguists, and has attained to the highest general average, nevertheless, it is to be best known through its literary and dramatic accomplishments. The motto, “Labor est non cassus” is very appropriate, not only for the Senior class, but also for the whole school. —Mildreth Janet Haggard. MARIE JOHNSON Valedictorian ROSE SCHUSSLER Photos by Lee Salutatorian CLAUDE ROSSMAN President HOW WE FEEL ON COMMENCEMENT NIGHT ’E are sitting tonight on this old platform, So old and yet so new, Our hearts beat strangely, sadly warm. Our eyes are filled with dew. Many are the hearts that are tender tonight, Mellowed by a common grief, Many are the marks the class-book brought to light Our pain’s beyond belief. Seventy-five per cent., seventy-five per cent., Seventy-five just drags us through. Seventy-five per cent., seventy-five per cent., Seventy-five just pulled us through. We are living again that direful day, ’Twas for our pictures booked; When we saw them, we swooned away, We’d forgotten how we looked. Many are the souls that are bankrupt tonight, Bitter tears our sad eyes fill, Many are the hearts weary of the sight Of that mammoth picture bill, Thinking tonight, thinking tonight, Thinking of that picture bill. Thinking tonight, thinking tonight, Thinking of that picture bill. We feel awkward tonight in these clothes so new, These clothes do feel so queer— With our hands we don’t know what to do— Our hearts beat wild with fear. Many are the hearts that are trembling tonight, Waiting for our turn to speak. Many are the knees knocking sore with fright For fear our shoes will squeak. Waiting tonight, waiting tonight, Waiting for your turn to speak; Waiting tonight, waiting tonight, Waiting for your turn to speak. —Mabel Parker, Class Poet 9 ---Ex-Pres. Hang calls to order- Ob SwennyBang, you’ll never hang While “Gilligan” makes “a hit”— For it’s a frost, that he is lost; “He’ll do as ho sees fit.” ----Ex-Pres. Bars© “In the chair”-- Oh dear Ray Barse, this awful farce Of “Tonic Nourishment” Is just a josh, an awful bosh— To help your “flourishment.” ----Ex-Pres. Stover holds a strenuous meeting----- Oh Ernest, dear, yon need not fear This picture looks like you— The artist queer, who drew it, dear, Had nothing else to do. ----President Rossman makes a speech------ Now I declare, it isn’t fair To make you look so funny— But then my pearl, it’s only Earle, So don’t feel bad “ma honey. THE SCHOOL IN ATHLETICS HE South High School Athletic Association, an organization controlling athletics at that insti tution, has been represented in every athletic contest between the high schools since it has been in existence. Even when there were but two hundred students in the South High and among these only a small number of boys, we had our baseball and our football teams. In 1891 when track athletics were first introduced in the high schools, South High came out with a team and an open challenge. The only other high school at the time having a track team was our old rival, Central High. A dual track meet was arranged and the following year saw the organization of the Northwestern Interscholastic Athletic Association which has since governed the track athletics of the highs of St. Paul, Minneapolis and Stillwater. We have since lost and won several games and meets. In 1900 our prospects were excellent for a winning baseball team and nothing but the pennant could be expected with such men as Garvey, Ellis, Za-lusky, Kersten and Hoover were in the game. So when the baseball season ended, South High was proclaimed the winner of the baseball championship of the season of 1900. In the spring of 1901, South High made a great showing at the spring track meet. Although the Orange and Black did not win the meet they won the distinction of having made thirty-four points against the twenty-six made by the other three Minneapolis high schools combined. In the fall of 1901 two new teams were introduced into South High, they were the Boys’ and Girls’ Basket Ball teams. The credit of introducing these teams into South High must be given to Mr. John Wood, captain, and Mr. Stover, manager, of the first basket ball team. Great interest was aroused in this new game and considering the difficulties which the boys 12 had in securing a place to practice and the hard schedule they played and it being their first season together, we think that they did exceptionally well, having lost but one championship game. The Girls’ Basket Ball team was handicapped in a number of ways. In the first place none of them had ever played the game before and again they had a hard time to secure a place to practice and were at one time on the verge of giving up the idea of a team, when Mr. Wood, captain of the Boys’ team, told the girls that they might use their hall three times a week. Mr. Wood coached the first basket ball team with very good results. Our plucky girls made a creditable showing and paved the way for interest in girls’ athletics. In the fall of 1902 nothing was talked about but football. Our prospects were the best ever for a championship team. With the best of material and an excellent coach, South High prepared for a great season. In the selection of captain for this team was shown a very friendly spirit on the part of the candidates. There were twelve men voting and the opposing candidates were Harry Hoover and Ernest Stover. The vote stood six to six until the substitute voting said he would withdraw his vote and then Mr. Harry Hoover was selected to lead the team to victory. The schedule included the University of Minnesota; Hamline University; the Twin City high schools; Cresco, Iowa; Winona, Minn., and the alumni. The team played in championship form in nearly every game except the game on November 7th, when for some unaccountable reason our boys fell down and lost a game to the Central High team of Minneapolis. This left the claim of championship disputed. Our claim is as follows: We defeated North Side and North Side defeated Central. We made a larger score against Cresco, Iowa, on their own grounds than Central made against them at Minneapolis. We made more points against our opponents than any other team and we have a higher percentage for the number of games won and played than any other high school. 13 We defeated Hamline University by a score of 17 to 2 and this institution defeated St. Paul Central. The Central and Mechanic Arts High schools of St. Paul both refused to play us, so they cannot claim the championship. In this way we were made champions of the Northwest. In the spring of 1903 at the indoor meet, South High was very successful, winning the meet by a large score, Myrick, Bang and Capron were the stars and the former secured the high individual score of the day. The class of ’03 has contributed many worthy men to the athletics of the school. Among these notables is Mr. Leslie Hughes, manager of the 1902 baseball team of the winning indoor track team of ’03, and the all-star center of our high school eleven for two years; Mr. Sweeney Bang, captain of the track team and the best end South High has ever known; Ernest Stover, manager of basket ball for two years and also one of the leading half-backs of our famous team of ’02. Frank Ludolph, another one of our football players and also an exceptionally good baseball player. This constitutes the list of well known athletes who are members of the class of ’03. The class can congratulate itself on having such men among its members and our only hopes and wishes are that the future classes shall produce such great men, that they will continue to arouse interest in athletics and that they will support the various teams in as great array as the class of ’03 has done. —Irving H. Robitshek. Editor's Note:—The author of the above is considered by everybody interested in South High athletics, to be the best football manager the school has ever had. 14 CLASS DAY PERSONALS V TjTtSS Anna Anderson has taken the regular four-V' year course n three and one-half years, and ' will graduate with her name nearly on the honor roll. Never mind Anna, there will come a time some day. The innocent and childlike countenance of Miss Lily Askeland came very near being forgotten by the committee, but they knew something was wrong until they noticed that they had omitted the name of Lily Evangeline Askland. Sweeney J. Bang began his fussing career about 1883, when he awoke and found himself admired by all the fair sex of his city. He often dons his pink tights and gymnastic athletic smile and graces the basket ball floor with his presence. This young man did not spend more than six years at South High. The mind of J. Raymond Barse outgrew the grade schools and he is now running the South High school. To him there is no snap like solid geometry. Raymond is the smartest and prettiest boy in the class and could easily get a job at some nice soda water fountain. The first high school spelling that Dwight Bell ever did was at Central, where he lost a spelling match. The funny thing about him is that on April Fool’s Day he succeeds in making a fool of himself as well as of others. During his school course he has been connected principally with a bright red necktie, collection of class dues, listening to fraternity stories and telling a few jokes. About 1887 Fred Blomgren learned how to walk and since then he has been a strong man on his feet and has just walked through South High school. It took him about four years. Miss Eva Enger has her sunny locks hung over her temples like a golden fleece and many Jasons come in quest of it. 15 Mathilda Bockman is a young lady of such versatile mind that few fields remain unexplored by her. Miss Bockman is a very accomplished young lady and in social circles she moves as a veritable queen. Miss Harriet Brearley says her chief study is French, but her mind is placed more on a young man at present attending the University. Miss Brearley, when a young lady puts on a gentleman’s hat there is sure to be something to follow. Miss Brearley has already demonstrated and proven this. Miss Ethel Brooberg came near spending more than the allotted time at the high school. She says she came to South High to see how little she knows, and says she never regrets having come here. Miss Julia Buell as a freshman entered Central High but was soon convinced that the class of ’03, South High, was the place for her and so one day she strolled over to Cedar avenue and Twenty-fourth street, and registered as Julia Thurber Buell, ’03. Mr. Charles Castle being of a very sweet and loving disposition, he is known to his friends as “Sunshine.” At present he is employed as chairman of the “frat” social committee. Miss Clara Cool is beautifully frank in acknowledging what is probably quite true of several others, that she hopes to get married some day, but not seeing any immediate prospect in that direction she is preparing to teach. Miss Anna Dahl is very small in stature but makes up for it by a very large smile that always raises the temperature of the surrounding atmosphere several degrees. Miss Donaldson is as neat as a pin and her very carriage means business. Miss Donaldson has many friends but she has a little weakness for being exclusive. Miss Mabelle Dukelow has at least received one vote for being the best natured and ought to receive more for she so cleverly combines the virtues of a “dig” and a “good fellow.” For further particulars see chairman of committee. 16 Miss Marian Drew is a young lady with the kindness of Socrates and the logic of Aristotle, and is probably a survival of those attic days of glory when independence of thought flourished in all its verity and might. Reuben Edquist came to the South High school looking for a home. He has made a careful study of the young ladies with a view of determining their ages but said that it has proven a dismal failure. Miss Ellen Eide is a member of the famous family of which South High had the honor of graduating two, one in 97 and one in 99. Miss Eide is very modest, but nevertheless is very popular with both sexes. When Louis Engdahl was born many dogs began to bark and children began to cry. This was done because the militia did not have enough material of which to fire a royal salute. Mr. Engdahl’s only relative is Christopher Columbus. Miss Susan Fielder began her capillary rusting some eighteen years ago and now has a head of auburn hair. Blood of a reddish tinge and Ayer’s Sarsaparilla flow through her veins. Miss Friedheim says Physics was her nicest study. This and probably one other reason accounts for her being in the Science Lecture room so much. Minnie Friedman is of a proud spirit. She fears neither the chemistry teacher nor the military man (Sweeney Bang) and comes out saying that she delights in skipping periods. Florence Grime came to the high school to get an education. In this way she differs from most of us. She says she never had a mean professor. We feel that we must warn the public of Afildreth Haggard’s work. She says she is in danger of failing in every study when the truth is she is a shark. We hope that Miss Haggard will soon see the errors of her ways. A rumor was afloat that someone had seen Arthur Haslund smiling but we have not been able to assure ourselves of the truth of this statement. 17 Ellen Hall won the strength and lung test for four successive years. This comes from being president of the Girls’ A. A. and playing basket ball. Miss Hall was one of the greatest inspirations to the football team of ’02. Harry Higgins became famous by yelling for some Mellin’s food when he was born. With this as a diet in his younger days he thrived until now he is a full-grown man and holds the record for having been sent out of class more times than any other student. Fanny Higgins is a typical Howard Chandler Christie girl. She says she came to school because she had to but does not regret it now owing to the number of nice boys who sit near her in the class room. Jenny Harris came to school to study and one of her chief delights is to argue. We can recommend Miss Harris as one who can see two sides of a question. As soon as Ellen Holmgren was old enough to understand anything she made up her mind to come to South High. She has one distinguished relative in “Eve.” Leslie Hughes, sometimes known as Apollo, many years ago, set many maiden heart-strings quivering. He managed to elude the fair sex long enough to ne-ter South High. Leslie soon settled down to a quiet life and quit the practice of talking to one girl, but now talks to several. Mr. Hughes with the kind assistance of his German teacher nearly made the honor roll. Carl Huntington first began to play the horn and other bum instruments about five years ago. He continued to play “bum” notes until now he leads the S. H. S. Orchestra. We can not find any town in the U. S. that will claim Carl as one of its sons. Jennie Lindquist is not a shark but she is in the habit of having her lessons. She loves all her teachers and for this reason she was voted third on the honor roll. 18 Hildigard Ott has a number of friends at school, mainly because she does all the hard problems and translations for a number of her classmates. Miss Mildred Gaus is specializing in a study called Latin and ostensibly in love theses sent through the mail. We do not know who the young man is. Marie Johnson in her wanderings came to South High and said she wanted to become the valedictorian of the class. Her wish was granted and Miss Johnson receives the Journal medal and the good wishes of all her classmates. Frank Mixer, the great favorite of the ladies, blushes easily and it is for this reason that he tries to avert a conversation with anyone. Edith Olin is of such a retiring disposition that she prefers to be alone and it is for this reason that she does not enter many lines of activity. Elsa Long is considered rather serious minded by some—but those that really know her never make that assertion. She studies some but not too much. Helen Long is very Frank, which one we will not say. Her chief characteristics are German, modesty, sense of humor and Deutsch. Earle Lawler was born very young and never got over it. His mouth is one of the conspicuous features of the high school. Earle draws pictures all day long and when he has nothing else to do he goes to classes. Frank Ludolph came to the high school with the intention of earning the athletic “S.” He won it and since then has been selling popcorn and jollying the girls. Miss Essie Mason has avoided being a shark and has often been found among those reported failed. She has one grievance, saying that the lessons are too short. Nellie Leland became famous by managing the famous girls’ basket ball team of ’03. She is a modest little creature and seldom gets her French until she gets into class. She paid her Senior dues on time and we love her for it. 19 Maud Mason decided that her talents would be wasted at any other place than South High, and it is for this reason that we behold the light of her coun-etnance among us. The smile of Clara Marvin (like the poor) is always with us and it will be a sorry day when she leaves South High. Marie Nelson came near being left off the honor roll, but owing to a slight exertion on Miss Nelson’s part her name now appears in large letters. The flirtatious young lady known as May O’Connell, must mend her ways if she ever intends to take life seriously. Skipping periods and coming to school any hour of the day is not conducive to Senior girls. N. B.—This is sarcastic. Ezra Oberg came to school in order to avoid working for a living but vengeance overtook him and he regrets it very much but is making the best of it. Mabel Parker has a reputation for loving nature and she often takes a trip to the farms near Bloomington in order to admire the beauty in nature. Agnes Kline came to school in order to get away from washing dishes and has often regretted as she says there is too much work at school. She likes chemistry pretty well, if we may judge, for in one period she broke five test tubes and inhaled a dose of chlorine. Clara Peterson says nothing of her own powers but keeps quiet and saws wood. John Quinn was first a freshman but his hair has grown now. Mr. Quinn received the majority of votes for being the largest and biggest bluffer of the class. Isabel Pearson is a tall, willowy figure with red cheeks. Greek verbs at her tongue’s end probably account for the Grecian bend in her walk. Claude Rossman, president of the best class ever graduted, says that were it not for his good looks he would have gotten a vote for presidency. Mr. Rossman has a reputation for working people and he has such taking ways. So the class photographers say. 20 Harriet Peterson says she has no distinguished relatives but we are sure that modesty alone compels her to refrain from mentioning any. Nothing short of a cyclone could tear Marion Richardson away from an interesting book and the same method must be used in separating her from her friends. The shy young man known as Irving Robitshek, can always be depended on for a “rough house.” After spending his allotted time at high school he says love-making is his principal and most valuable study. For this reason the girls’ basket ball team of ’03 won so very few games. Irving show your teeth. Rose Weisman is a shining light among her classmates. Her great fault is her great desire to excel in literature. We hope she will soon outgrow this idea. If in a friend you search for fidelity, faithfulness, kindness and counsel, you will not be disappointed in Carolyn Smith. Lula Stobbs has the reputation for being the best natured and jolliest girl in the class. Miss Stobbs is the congenial secretary of the famous class of ’03. In Blanche Scallen we behold the Senior Amazon. This young lady is fond of athletics and is an exceptionally good basket ball player, having captained the team of ’03. Lastly not to leave out any of her virtues she talks. Of course she studies; how much we will not say. Agnes Steming is noted for two things, she can ask a question in Mr. Westerson’s class without blushing ten minutes before or after and she has ideas. When Ernest Stover entered South High school he made Solomon look like thirty cents. He missed the valedictory by three votes, the flag essay prize by two votes and getting fired by one. The South High school was a fitting place for this ambitious nature and he has been managing everything in sight and is now editor-in-chief of the Senior Year Book. Rebecca Schwartz has a pair of dark black eyes that seem to pierce you, but she is mild and very gentle. She is not a shark but generally has her lessons. Rose Schussler has a remarkable past which for her sake we will not mention. We are awaiting some 21 more facts and in a few days we will publish a new romance. Miss Schussler is salutorian of the class. Ernest Swenson spends most of his time quoting the following from the Scriptures: “Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s seat by the window, neither shalt thou covet thy neighbor’s chisel nor his plane, neither shalt thou covet any apparatus in chemistry and thou shalt not covet anything that is thy neighbor’s.” Like many others, Agnes Taafe does not believe in high school examinations and one of her grievances is “quizzes.” The pleasantest moment of her life was her first vacation. Nels Vireen, our sergeant-at-arms, received his preparation for his present position from Bob Fitzsimmons, Jeffries and John L. Sullivan. His training along these lines speaks well for his instructors. Jeanette Watson came to the high school to get what Matthew Arnold called “Sweetness and light.” No one thinks she ever regrets it for her greatest delight is examinations. From what we notice we believe Gertrude Williams is a firm believer in women’s rights, but a casual observer might not notice it. Hilda Youngren says among her many regrets is too short vacations around Thanksgiving and Memorial Day. For what reason we do not know. Carrie Wangaard is terribly bright and is a good worker. Chemistry is her fault; chemistry is her cry; she’ll stick to chemistry while she lives—chemistry till she dies. Celia Tanner has acquired a great appetite and like the poor, it is always with her. Her friends keep their pockets full of oyster crackers for her. Lulu Walton says her high school grievance is that she can’t play football. A basket ball she loves to toss; and all her classmates she loves to boss. Fanny Zimmerman has taken many prizes, mainly booby. She says her best study is the one in which she has to do the least work. Respectfully 'submitted, Irving H. Robitshek. J. Earle Lawler, Chairman. Ellen M. Hall, Class Day Committee. 22 THE WIERD FUTURE OF THE CLASS OF ’03 Foretold by Marion. G. Richardson, J. Raymond Barse and Reuben Edquist LAST week there was an ad in the “Personals.” A well-to-do farmer in the southern part of the state wanted a good looking lady, not too old, to grace his table when there’s company and to grace the kitchen and sweep the floors other times.” Apply in person to Fred H. Blomgren. Hilda Youngren is learning to be a nurse; she’s filling her heart as well as her purse; she nursed Mr. New-rich thru typhoid fever; now he says he cannot go ’way and leave her. Rose Weisman has edited a set of Shakespeare’s plays in story form which are said to rival Chas. Lamb’s attempts in that direction. Ernest Stover makes a specialty of raising fast horses. Last week his “Fitzsimmons” took a purse of $4 for making the half mile jog time, 33 1-3 minutes. Nels Vireen and plump little Marie, have settled down now as snug as can be; a home they have where Marie is boss, and ’tis said that poor Nels never dares to be cross. Ethel Brooberg is seen frequenting the bargain counters down town very often and she had three new hats last summer. However, she has not bought her cat and parrot yet. Lulu Walton and Clara Peterson are conducting a lunch counter at the Union Depot where they sell chicken bone sandwiches (25c each). Dwight Bell made the world ring a year ago with the discovery of perpetual motion. We always knew there was good metal in him. Tho Dwight was the only Bell of ’03, we felt sure there another at sometime would be; this is now the case; yet we hardly dare tell, but they say that Miss Pearson now Is-a-bel. Harry Brenchley is a good, sensible man. They are running him for mayor now out in Denver. 23 Miss Marie Johnson, the distinguished authority in German and Latin, has recently compiled a second edition of Johnson’s Universal Encyclopedia. Mildred Gaus has, in consideration for future H. S. Seniors, compiled a new “Advanced Algebra,” without any surds. Lulu Stobbs and Anna Dahl, have formed a great combine, they’ve opened up an “Old Maid’s Hall” and live in style quite fine. Our classmate, Celia Tannar, with her entrancing manner, has won a most wealthy bachelor, who is quite a suitable match-for-her. Lily Askeland is making a great success of the intelligence office she is conducting on Hennepin avenue. Last year she arranged three marriages and found employment for eight hired girls. Jennie Harris and Rebecca Schwartz have been teaching school for six years and still declare they are not yet on the matrimonial market. Arthur Haslund’s a sailor lad, and sails the deep blue sea; for safety his ship’s the best to be had— cheap rates to the class of ’03. Conscientious Susie, on leaving school, joined a maiden’s baseball nine and from the latest reports concerning her we find that she is still left Fielder. Jennie Lindquist does proof reading for the N. Y. World. She always was quiet and read so much. Edna Goodrich has patented a ten-cent lunch for H. S. students; contents of the box, one pickle, half slice of pie, two sardines, one bun and one piece of taffy. Louis Engdahl has to his intense delight obtained a position as assistant professor in chemistry at the School for Feeble-minded down at Faribault. You all remember Carrie, our quiet Miss Wan-gaard; she vowed she’d never marry—yet already she’s chosen a “pard.” Agnes Taafe copies compositions for high school pupils with disabled hands. That’s one of her old duties. Harriet Brearley is still Miss Brearley—by choice! 24 Mathilda Bookman, true to the training of her youth, has gone to Africa as a missionary. In our class there was a boy up to the Senior year, And of the fame he’s reached since then you presently shall hear; He’s now a multi-millionaire with automobiles three, And folks say now that Chas. Castle next president will be. Jeanette Watson has settled down to quiet domesticity. Wise (?) girl, Jeanette. Ernest Swenson is the inventor of the scriptoscope. It will write an essay on any subject whatever. Too bad Ernest didn’t make his discovery when we were Freshmen. Out on a lonely western ranch, lives our Miss Scal-len, our only Blanche; but her name is not Miss Scal-len now—it’s been changed for another—you know how. Florence Grime is an old maid high school teacher and they say it’s a hopeless case. Love in a cottage with baked beans for two,” For Miss Mabelle Dukelow would never do; She’s mistress of a mansion in England, in Kent, Where her charms are shown to their full extent. She’s taken a place as an American should, And gained greater honor than an English belle could. We only hope before she grows gray, She’ll come back o’er th’ Atlantic, determined to stay. Agnes Stenning drills the girl’s Megaphone Brigade of all four Minneapolis High Schools. She writes yells to order. Carolyn Smith has changed her name for one more uncommon. It saves confusion of letters. John Quinn has just issued the 5th edition of his thrilling translation of Virgil. We remember that John showed remarkable precocity in this direction in the second period Virgil class. As far as can be ascertained Julia Buel is simply a lady of leisure. 25 “Lawton and Rossman, Attorneys at Law,” Is a firm well known in town; For George and Claude have both worked hard And fairly earned renown. The two are portly gentlemen, And whatever else they be, In ery way to this very day, Reflect credit on old ’03. Hattie Peterson and Ellen Holmgren are quietly established in two little cottages side by each; and in the afternoons before time to get supper they sometimes read of old Polyphemus and Achemenides as of yore. A certain Miss Clara, well known in the school, Who sits ’cross the aisle from her friend, Julia Buel, Has determined for one thing her temper to rule And thro life's stormy battles to ever keep Cool. Minnie Friedman is assistant librarian at the Public Library. A good place to indulge her literary tastes. Frank Ludolph now owns the grocery across the street from South High. First day of school he usually treats all the little girls to olives. Marian Drew attracted the city’s attention last week, All the town for her recital tickets did seek; But the best of it all was that Marian drew A millionaire artist and took his name too. Frank Mixer is now pictured in the papers as “Padrewski’s successor.” He used to play divinely for the Literary Society at old South High. Nellie Leland takes care of children whose mothers work during the day. No extra charge for chastisement. Elsa and Ella Long have gone to Dakota where Ella has opened a school of piano musk for spinsters under forty-three and Elsa has found a solace in a great big, broad-shouldered Dakotan. Earle Lawler is starring with the Realistic Theater Co. Last week he made love to the heroine in such a natural manner that she fainted and had to be carried off the stage. 26 Ezra Oberg is tax collector for the 18th District in Minnesota, N. B.—He has erected six flat buildings since he started to serve (?) the public. May O’Connell and Ellen Hall have a hairdressing establishment in the Syndicate Arcade. Sympathetic reduction in price to old maids. Swenney Bang is leader of the “Go Lightly Chorus.” Serenades a specialty. Agnes Klein keeps all the small boys of class of ’04 busy distributing handbills advertising her sure cure for giggles: 50c per bottle. Eva Enger broke last year’s record for speed as a stenographer. Eva is certainly a hustler. Harry Hoover won the world’s championship as an all-around athlete this year. Ellen Eide (so they say) sets the supper table each night for two. Mildreth Haggard is making a tour of the U. S. lecturing on “Woman’s Rights.” Clara Friedheim is teaching kindergarten. All pupils must be escorted inside the room by their big brothers. Clara Marvin now occupies the position of supervisor of music in the State High Schools of Idaho. Mabel Parker has just sold the second copy of her poems on “Dreams of Spring.” A man who helped house clean last May bought one and a bachelor artist bought the autograph copy. There may be hopes for Mabel yet. Howe’er else changed the class, Our Gertrude is “Sweet William(s)” still; She has become a most learned lass, And in translating Sanskrit shows marvelous skill. Leslie Hughes late in life, after working successively as a geometry professor, a professional mountain climber and a hobo, has taken up the study of medicine. Anna Anderson has made herself very popular with her dancing school. She is at present making a tour of Europe and China, learning the latest steps. 27 Hildegard Ott and Edith Olin are pursuing knowledge to its utmost heights. They always were very studious at school. From common clay, as statues great arise, Just so Frank Clay has risen to great fame; And as a Master Mechanic most wise, Has won himself an honored, lasting name. Zoe Donaldson has won world wide renown by the publication of her latest work entitled “The Pleasures of Travel.” Fannie Zimmerman makes fudge for those sly “U” girls to give to their “bests.” The fame of Irving Robitshek’s hard-headed business sagacity and ability as a successful manager has extended so far as to cause a lucrative offer to be made him which we understand he has accepted. It is a position as manager of an “Old Ladies’ and Orphans’ Home” in Eastern New York. Carl Huntington is a second Will Honeycomb. The trouble with Carl was, he was never content to confine his attentions to one. The Misses Mason, Essie and Maud Are both attaining praise and laud. They both are artists of great renown, And are soon to come back to their native town. Their prices will be within everyone’s reach, For they’re now painting minatures at $300 each. Harry Higgins is prospering and at night when he returns from his office in the Chamber of Commerce, he assists any high school student who finds difficulty with Greek nouns. But Fannie Higgins developed a severe case of the sofa pillow mania and ever since she graduated she has done nothing but make cushions of every conceivable size, shape and color. Since Reuben’s appearance in the “Shakespeare” at school, He’s continually taken the part of a “fool Without doubt he will in the world be known, If he’ll just let writing poems alone. 28 The last we heard of Harry Stark he was acting the part of Le Beau in “As You Like It.” The career of Marion Richardson will doubtless be crowned with success, Among all the musicians of this wide land perhaps she’ll be known as the very best; We’ve only one bit of advice to give (which would be entirely needless for some), May she follow the Spectator’s mode of life and study herself entirely dumb. Ray Barse, of us all, is most influential Insured for ten thousand in the old “Prudential;” But greater fame waits on this owner of acres, If he’ll only remember “Blest are the peacemakers.” THE CLASS MEMORIAL On the evening of Friday, April 17th, the Senior class gave their annual entertainment to raise money for the class memorial. The entertainment was the most artistic and enjoyable one given in the Assembly Hall for years; the hall and stage were decorated with bunting and Oriental drapery; the programs were printed in most attractive style, being designed by Earle Lawler. The arrangements for the entertainment were made by Dwight Bell, chairman, Earle Lawler, Claude Rossman, Blanche Scallen, Clara Friedheim. The proceeds went to pay for the beautiful clock which the class decided to leave as a memorial to the school. The clock is 32 x 33 inches in size, with an 18-inch dial, upon which is painted in large letters, “ ’03,” and the motto, “Labor est non cassus.” The case is of solid mahogany, carved with fluted pillars on each side, the whole clock in the finest harmony of finish and design. As a work of art and utility, and as a most appropriate memorial of the class of 1903, the clock will hang in the hall for years to come, seen and appreciated by all. 29 ILLUSTRIOUS HISTORY OF CLASS OF ’03 VERY individual, every institution, every or- ganization, has some life-history, good, bad or indifferent, according to its character, and this record of its existence is well recorded in the annals of the great historian Time. No one will dispute that of all histories, of past or present, that of an United States is the youngest, most remarkable, greatest and best. It is, therefore, with an intense sense of pride and keen enjoyment, that, reviewing our life as a banded union, we find it almost an exact parallel to that of the glorious Stars and Stripes.” The population of our mother country “Educatio” grew in ever increasing numbers year by year, and as the most important states, as for instance, Washington, Adamsburgh and Irvingsdale, were especially overcrowded, their respective governors decided to send out a colony to immortalize their fame and honor in a new land. So they called the citizens all together and explained to them that they had ordered an expert phrenologist who should, after making thorough examination of the great array of heads, choose therefrom those possessing bumps” of business capacity, of industry, of government, of law-making, of good citizenship in general. The examinations lasted a week and at the expiration of that time, about 200 young people with the pilot of Faith and with Hope as anchor, sailed for the harbors of their new field of labor and joy, called South-Hye (a word derived from the Chinese). Some of our members got so very lonesome away from their mother” that nothing would do but that they return home; others, again sought elsewhere to shine in their glory, for had they stayed, we brighter stars would have outshone them, and :30 they would have failed to credit them with due merit and worth. The first year passed without any great events, likewise the second; for it was during that time in which each one made his own home and got settled. Each worked for himself; the doctors kept aloof from their neighbors the lawyers, farmers and carpenters did not intermingle with the miners, but each worked hard to make his mark! Not that there did not exist between them a brotherly friendship; for whenever any of Educatio’s representatives of noble and wise years (sent to instruct them in certain ways) practised the least sign of tyranny, they would all be banded together for defense, banded in one cause, for one purpose. When the mother country, seeing them to be a flourishing and promising colony, wished to exert too much power over them, all to a man, rebelled, and for the second time in the history of the world, A. D. 1901, a second Declaration of Independence was drawn up and signed. This was the beginning of the repub lican government now in the prime of its glory. For president, this little colony, bearing in mind the wisdom of America, chose its ablest general and commander, a second George Washington, well versed in the arts of war (for he had been an athlete ever since our South-hyean “Fame began”), a man with a great deal of Bang to him, probably too much to suit some, for he was not re-elected for a second term. In a nation’s early life, it needs as its chief, a strong commander; for a second time this new colony gained for its leader a Herculean Pugilist, great in physical strength, both meek and kind, an Ernest man, conscientious, strong to do his level best in the interest of his nation. Now I neglected to say that when we came to this new land, we discovered that it was already inhabited. A strange sect of folks we found, fierce as 31 Lyons, powerful as Earls; so strange, that although they never would tell us of their origin, we believe must have fallen from the moon or some other planet; fallen, and with an adhesiveness as good as any Le Page’s glue, they stuck there fast, and we could not succeed in removing them from our grounds. President Bang did his best, but despite all his training in athletics, despite his strong band of soldiers, he had something worse to encounter than did Uncle Sam when he fought the Indians. A Treaty of Peace was made between these Moon-beams and ourselves, and Uncle Swenney granted them permission to occupy our land for just one year more. They behaved beautifully after that, save for one time when they committed a crime which we loyal citizens and patriots felt the blackest of all sins, namely, the “Desecration of our Flag!” Floating on the Flag-staff of Independence, our glorious colors were being wafted by the gentle breezes, when they fell prey to a certain crew of these semi-barbarous tribes. A slight skirmish followed, in which we were victorious and regained our Crimson and White from hostile hands. Since then no attempt has ever been made to pay anything except most loyal respect to our emblem of Liberty. But like the Fallen Angels in Pandemonium, these people had no rest until Revenge was theirs. So they succeeded in bringing about a war of short duration, called the War of the “Basket Ball,” thus called on account of a new sort of weapon used in the combat. Each side fought for life, and as Satan won in his cause, so the evil element won in this. Some people have credited this victory to a mistake made on the part of the Fates, but very humbly we, as the vanquished, credit it to their physical strength, acquired so rapidly thro window-washing and other menial work in which they had served us. 32 There was, however, a kindly spirit existing on our side, and we wished to make this manifest to them before their lease was out, by giving in their honor, a Farewell Reception, which was a success in every particular. We fed them with the best in the market, (and if some went to excess, it was their fault, not ours) we entertained them in the most cordial and hospitable way, and further, by presenting before the public, for the first time, our Paderewskis, our Melbas, our Burtons and other Artists of equal rank and skill. This historic event ended our life with this strange people, now quite cultured and refined by our influence over them; and when they were found to leave us, we felt indeed proud that we had had a share in their lives and they felt it their Good Fortune to have spent part of their alloted Time with us; they carried away to different lands happy reminesences of the days they were privileged to spend in South-Hye. We were now alone, free, untrammeled! free! This last year has been one without wars, without skirmishes with outside tribes, a year of exclusive happiness. Symbolic of this fact, we elected for our president, a sweet, peaceful little boy, with a beautiful melodious voice which will doubtless some day “untune the sky” if ever he grows tall enough. He was universally liked, but was so busy with outside work that he felt obliged to retire to private life; the overtaxed responsibility and mental strain proved too much for him. It worked so hard upon him that even his beautiful curly locks became perfectly straight! but after weeks of tedious labor, he seemed to emerge into the sunshine of the world, from behind prison Barse, for he had prepared a hair-tonic which was capable of making short hair long, long hair short, straight locks curly, to change the color to any hue desired; in fact, a noble piece of work for the betterment of humanity. Secretly we will say that if you possess any musical 33 talent, use it by all means, for it is on musical heads that it is most efficient. For further information we refer you to Mr. Carlos, our leading eminent musician, who can play anything from a mouth-organ to a drum. It would take too long to tell all about our parties, sleigh rides, hay-rack rides and masquerades, but they will be remembered as long as we have a single piece of our memories left, no matter how small that may be. But mention must be made of our Theatrical or Dramatic Companies. The one is very literary, and presents only Shakespearean plays, out of respect to our dear old friend, Will. The merits of these plays and the actors and actresses are so widely known that no comment is really needed. Our only superior as Pros-pero is Frederick Wardc, our only superior as Brutus, Richard Mansfield. We are made up of such various styles of people that we play any drama, to a T. Even in representing Fairyland on the stage, we succeeded in creating etherial beings as dainty as Titania herself. Of course this is what we have been told by our ablest critics. ' The other company presents only comedies and to make up this Troupe, we chose only our farmers and send them to “Punkin Ridge” to show their acquired skill. If ever any one of you goes abroad, and gets a chance to enter Westminster Abbey, you will find, in a chest standing on the northeast corner of the transept, records of our dramatic “hits,” so we will leave that subject for the present. With our President Clodius, we as a whole, believe in expansion both individual and national. As evidence of the first, consult the statistics of the “Physical Culture Chest-Expansion Company,” and you will see what marvelous results have been gained during the past year. As to the rest: We have acted well our part as founders of a new state; indeed so well, that we are just about to begin anew on a larger scale. 34 As we have applied an expansion principle to our population, the number of immigrants has shown annual increase. Thus, since there is no other way out of it, we, as the oldest, must move on to make room for others. We would expand in territory, but are not allowed to (as we hoped) for our high authorities have seen fit to inclose our vast boundaries by a beautiful hedge-fence of natural maple; and with sincere hearts, and a divine and noble purpose, we humbly dedicate and will this hedge to those young people who in a few months will take our places, when Educatio shall have sent us to govern the ungovernable Cuba, to teach the uncultured Filipino! Having been enveloped all this time in a misty cloud, having kept secret both our name and our whereabouts, we now draw aside the veil and reveal ourselves to the public as the South High’s class of ’03. Thanking our teachers and principal, the Juniors, the Alumni, and all others who have helped make our school-life so very pleasant, thanking you again with grateful hearts, now as we are about to leave our present school home, and enter upon active life, we hesitate just long enough to bid you all FAREWELL! —Anna D. Dahl, Historian. 35 POSITIONS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE Young people starting out in life who have made no choice of a profession would do well to look thoroughly into the possibilities open to Shorthand Writers for advancement to positions of trust, where opportunities for earning large salaries are continually presenting themselves. The demand for thoroughly qualified shorthand writers in all lines of business far exceeds the supply. It is a self evident fact, however, in order to secure a position which will be remunerative and one in which the stenographer will be able to advance, one must be thoroughly conversant with the work. Read the following from The Minneapolis Times, May 25: RAILROADS SEEK COMPETENT MEN Great Demand for Able Stenographers in Every Department. Railway managers are on the lookout for competent young men to act as stenographers in railroad offices—men having the ability and capacity to take important positions in the management of railroads within the next score of years. Such young men have no difficulty in securing a position in railway offices. Indeed, the demand is stronger in the offices of the Eastern roads than in the 36 West, and many inquiries for competent help come to Western roads from Eastern offices. The policy of employing young men as stenographers is now being pursued by nearly all railroads. The stenographer to the head of any department, or in any department, in the course of his regular duties, acquires information almost as comprehensive and broad as that of the man who dictates to him in regard to that phase of railroading, if he be made of as a profession is an occupation peculiarly adapted to young ladies, who earn better wages as shorthand secretaries than as teachers, and the demand for this class of help is continually increasing. For full particulars regarding the work, call or address Where Knowledge Is Acquired. Shorthand and Guaranty Building. RJ Smith, Secy-Treas. 37 the right stuff, and it is men of the right stuff that roads are looking for. The tendency to employ thoroughly educated young men of ability and capacity has long been noted on Western lines, even when the start is made at the lowest round of the ladder. It is present in every department of railroad management, and for all classes of positions. Competent help, that will justify promotion, is the cry that is going up from railroad offices in the West and even louder is the cry from the offices of Eastern roads; for the dearth of help of this character is much greater there than here. In this connection it should be remembered that shorthand is not the end, simply the means to an end, and, excepting for advertising purposes, it makes little , or no difference which system is taught; it is “the man behind the pen” that counts. The Chief Clerk of one of the railroad offices centering in Minneapolis is a graduate of “The Munson Institute.” He learned the railroad business as a stenographer, most of the business being done through him. His employers learned to know his fitness, and promotion was rapid. This is only one instance. There are many. Shorthand is the short cut to business advancement. THE MUNSON SHORTHAND INSTITUTE Guaranty Building. RJ Smith, Secy-Treas. 38 To teach shorthand properly the instructor should be one who has been “through the mill,” so to speak, from amanuensis to the most difficult kinds of reporting work. Water will run no higher than its source, so with instruction in shorthand. The difficulty in mastering shorthand and becoming an expert stenographer lies not in acquiring the theory, BUT IN BEING FITTED FOR A POSITION. Thus it is that the instructor must not only understand the theory, but be able to teach it, and must know what will be required of students when they accept positions, and be able to impart that knowledge. The Munson Shorthand Institute advocates the Munson system of shorthand because it is a standard system, and one that has been thoroughly tried and tested for over 30 years in actual work. This Institute is in charge of an active, professional reporter, and has facilities for placing all graduates in positions, and the fact that all of its graduates are in paying positions, and holding them acceptably, is the strongest kind of 63 Years Ago Isaac Pitman, of England, invented phonetic shorthand. His system was improved, until the Munson system was evolved. Over fifty so-called systems are now advertised—some to be learned in a few days. But only the best,—The Munson system, for instance, will give you speed in actual work. THE MUNSON SHORTHAND INSTITUTE Guaranty Building. RJ Smith, Secy-Treas. 39 commentary in favor of the system taught and the instruction given. You are invited to write or call at the school office where all questions regarding shorthand and typewriting will be cheerfully answered. When You Make Up Your Mind To study that fascinating art of shorthand writing, be sure you go to a practical professional • stenographer, and thus get the benefit of his experience. Pupils at The Munson” are the most successful of any in securing positions. THE MUNSON SHORTHAND INSTITUTE Guaranty Building. RJ Smith, Secy-Treas. 40 p I A Metropolitan Music Co.
