For- ty-nine noted honored students bent their footsteps to dear old T. H. S. and as they merrily passed down the street, the expression on their facees seemed to say, Our High School days are almost over, and then ---- such a meloncholy ex- pression represented itself on their young faces. The teachers all welcomed us with friendly slriles and congratulations and the un- der classmen gazed at us with awe-stricken admiration. We had the usual class meet- ings and elected our different class ofiicers. At the beginning of the second semester, there was eight new students enrolled with our class, they coming from several different schools. This addition made a total of Hfty- seven members, making ours the largest class that ever graduated from T. H. S. We are justly proud of our class this year and the following brief biographies will make you acquainted with the various members. LOIS BISHOP. Lois is considered very quiet and demure until you know her and then!!!! She attended the 3rd ward school for about two years and has been in the H. S. building ever since. She is a conscientious worker and has one of the best dispositions to be found any Where. EDITH MOOD. The first we can remember of Edith, is as an independent little bobbed-haired girl starting to school in Miss Hershman's room. She spent all her life right here in the Tipton schools. As president of the 1920 class, she has been a faithful worker for the past two years. EVELYN PRYLLIMAN. The Seniors have at least one genius, Evelyn is bound to win success with her violin. She has always had a prominent part in the musical activities of the school and her leaving will be a great loss to the T. H. S. She is a charter member of the '20 class. ALLEN APPLETON Hap is another one Whose quiet looks are deceiving. We'll all hand the hon- ors to him as a basket ball player. When you want to get tanked up just drive around to the srevice station and Hap will be in full attendance. GERTRUDE PRESSLER Gertrude is a sweet girl with hosts of friends. She is an excellent student and we expect to see her one day a successful business woman or perchance the wife of a leading clothing merchant. Page Eight TIPTONIAN -1 9 2 0-- LEO LEBO. Our class has a three star man, an all round athlete, a good bookkeeper, but on other subjects he is nix. ETHEL PAUL Ethel received most of her education in a country school. but when she came to town!!! Everyone knows and likes Ethel. She is noted for her motherly advice and in- terest in Earlham College. HONORA O'HARA Honora came to T. H. S. from St. Johns and she was an excellent, if at times mis- chevious, addition to the class. Hoaney will always be remembered for her brilliant head both inside and out. She also has the honor of being the leader of the rough neck gang. A IDONA LEAVETT Idona is a quiet interesting girl. She is a wonder at making houswifey things. Also she is a good elocutionest. She will make some good man a wife, preferably a min- ister. ORINTHA RILEY Orintha is a good student and well liked by all. No one would believe it but Orintha has a deep admiration for dancing A HOWARD WILSON Sleepy was given to the mercy of the people in the 20th century. After reach- ing the enormous age of six he began his school career at Russiaville Ind., then he joined forces with the Junior class but this year was interupted in his work by his constant at- tention to the chewing gum queen but he has overcome this and is increasing his mental facilities under the supervision of our noteworthy Principal Ort'Leroy Walter. VIOLA SLATER. This prim young lady spent seven long toilsome and happy years in a school near Hobbs, then she was willingly accepted into the ranks of T. H. S. and here she spent four years. She has made many friends and will be greatly missed by every teacher and student. LOWELL GREEN Who is principally known by his artistic ability, is not only well liked by his classmates but also by someone on N. Main St. Lowell began his course in mileage at the 3rd ward school house. He spent four long benificient years in Tipton H. S. ALLEN WARNE This excellent young senior is a noted historian and a wonder in chemistry. He also accompanies his friend and classmate Howard Wilson to the Brady homestead Tears and heartache will accompany his departure. t I . Page Nine TIPTONIcAN --1 9 2 o-- PHILIP MCCARTY Pecame one of our Host diginified and sedate Seniors in 1919 coming from Kemp- ton. He has won a place in the hearts of all the boys and girls CD The best wishes of the class accompany Philip in whatever he may choose to do in life. We are sure he will have something to do with the ladies. DOROTHY JONES Is a new member of the Senior class coming from some remote region out west, to graduate with us. Although her stay with us has been short she has won the friend- ship of all and is an excellent addition to the class. PAULINE SWIFT Is one of the most accomplished students. She entered Tipton H. S. with the rest of the class and has remained with us four years. Although she is thinking ser- iously about being a worker for the woman sufferage we are rather inclined to doubt it. What about that young farmer, Pauline? FELICIA TETER. Another new student coming from Goldspnith. The last semester of this year she becameamember of our class in order to graduate from a commissioned school. Felicia not only is a good student but is noted for her good disposition. EUGENE SANDMANN Our quiet unconcerned classirate. began lfis school career at the age of seven years. He joined our class in 1916 and has been with us since that time. We firmly believe that Eugene is hecorr. ing very fond cf Kenzpton, ,we wonder why? RICHARD NASH This country gentleman is one of the most diginified seniors we have. He grad- uated from the public schools in 'I ipton and now has very successfully finished his H. S. course. Upon Dicks departure we feel tl ere will be a vacant place in the school which can never be filled by a nnore honorable student. GARNET WILSON One of the most esteerr ed young ladies of our class, a star at giving information in English class, She is also a new member of the class but is a worthy one. ' MABLE ORR Better known as Goldenrod, Mable is naw asenior but not at all dignified as one might expect. A WILMA SMITH Her motto is A thought once uttered is never your own again By joining our ranks she has made many friends who will regret her leaving very much. JOHN MATHEWS Sometimes bashful, deserves special mention in this history owing to his art of smiling. John has never changed his locality in the progress of his education. Page Ten TIPTONIAN --1 9 2 o-- HUGH DOWN ING Subject of this sketch entered H. S. with the rest of the Freshies. He has always been a very studious CPD chap and his highest ambition is to be a chemical engineer g in this we wish him the greatest success. ' CLARICE DUNN Her quiet and modest ways have been her characteristics. Clarice has not de- voted all her time to studies however but some of it has gone for steadies. , MARGUERITE TETER. This bright country lass isa good student. She also hails from Goldsmith and is a late member of the class. C. ELOISE HARTLEY. Our modest little preachers daughter first attended the Mount Vernon commom school. At the age of 14 years this impudent little miss entered T. H. S. We are sure that all the faculty will find it hard to fill the space left by her departure. MARIE PURVIS One of the most brilliant members of our class. She came to Tiption and has been with us from that time on. We wish this member of our class a pleasant life's workqas a Librarian. MARY LAURA ADAIR Our pride and joy bestowed herself upon her fond parents Oct. 31, 1902. We be- lieve the date is the reason why Mary is so bewitching. Mary possesses a very talented voice and we feel sure that she will make a name for herself in Grand Opera. ROBIN ADAIR This robust young man came to grace this world Oct. 17 1900 and has been grac- ing it ever since. The citizens of Tipton as well as all of the students are aware of his most melodious laughter which is his one great talent. We think perhaps Ott intends to be a professor of chemistry as that seems to be his favorite CU study but whatever it is we wish him well. CHARLES SEWARD. Better known as Chauncy became a resident of Tipton eight years ago. He has been a faithful member of our class and with his departure we feel that a worthy sup- porter of the high school will be missing. Best wishes to Charles and his future occu- pation. THOMAS MCAVOY He came late into our midst, but in the short time that he has been with us he he has made a host of friends. He is making high school in three years and though we never heard him express his future intentions, the best wishes of the class go with him. NEVA DAWSON. One of our most brilliant students, early showed her mental ability by taking Page Eleven T I P T O N I A N ...-.1 9 2 0-1- the first and second grades in one year. She graduated from the Clark school and then came to continue her eduaction in the Halls of fame. We understand that Neva in- tends to go to I. U. and we are sure the college will receive in her a genius. JUNE ADAIR. Subject of this sketch made her appearance in 1903. She started in school at the usual age, prepared to travel the road of learning no matter how rough. She has always been diligent in her school work and tho we are not aware of her plans for the future, we wish her much success in whatever she chooses to do. RUTH GOODMAN Her early school days were spent in Bloomington, Indiana. Ruth entered the seventh grade with us and was welcomed into our midst. She was heard to remark that the demerit sheet would miss her when she left but we assure her that the class also will miss her smiling presence. IVORY PHIFER. One of the members of our class who helps to compose the Honor roll deserves considerable mention. We are all somewhat inclined to think that Ivory will soon take up her residence in Ekin Ind. and with her goes the best wishes of the Senior class. BEATRICE OSBORNE. Known to her many friends as B is another of our members who has atten- ed other schools but we are sure sometimes that she fondly remembers past days but we think she likes life in Tipton bestg especially as long as a certain Junior resides here. CLYDE YOUNG. One of our old stand'bys. Clyde is now seriously thinking of joining the Naval Training at Annapolis and the class wish him the best of luck. LAURA GRISHAW. One of our stars in Commercial work UD' she has been with us the full four years and is well known and liked by both students and teachers. MERRILL FOSTER NEIDHAMER. To this worthy you ig Se liar Imllih cre lit mist be gi wen. Although very quiet he is one of the shining lights of our class, mentally. Merrill is quite a talker on the subject of Fools why, we have never been able to find out, but every one has his hobby. FLORENCE RICHARDS. Is a musician of renown but we sadly fear all her talent will be centered around one person, from the dazzling lights we have noticed on her left hand. Florence is the worthy editor of the Tiptonian and is also noted for her frequent Cexcused'?j absences from school. LUCILLE STILLWELL Lucille hails from Kempton. She has made many friends since her short stay in our school and we only regret that she did not join us sooner. Page Twelve TIPTONIAN --1 9 2 o--- HERMAN SPRINGER. Commonly known as Springy or Hermy, is one of our atheletes. He would be a great success in this line if he only had a little more height, however we are wel pleased with Hermy just as he is. FREIDA B. PAUL. On entering Tipton High School Freda at once made herself known by getting on the Honor Roll. We have not been informed as to what course she will pursue but the good wishes of the faculty and all her student friends go with her. MARY MANLOVE. This quiet maiden is another of our redeeming virtues, always accepting a promi- nent place on the honor roll. We wonder if she has a secret talent for singing as we have noticed she takes unusual care of her throat, always keeping it well wrapped. MYRAL SMITH. This energetic girl is the bread-maker of our class, taking prizes wherever she goes for this art. If any young man wishes recommendations for a housewife we will vouch for Myral for we are sure she can qualify excellently for this position. FREIDA O'BANION. Freida is noted far and wide for her debates with Doc. Sometimes the race is close. She also likes to sit on the stairs and study. Nevertheless we all like Freida Jane and she is right there when it comes to commercial English. PEARL COLE. This mischievous little lady is winning honors for the class of '20 in the oratori- cal world and we feel she bids fair to become a speaker in the house. There is how- ever a chance that our hopes may be frustrated in the form of the masculine gender. MILDRED DOWNING. It can truly be said of Mildred that she is Little but mighty. She isa booster from Hobbs, having come from there to T. H. S. and has proven herself avaluable member of the class of '20. FRANCIS SABENS. , Francis belongs to that select bunch who take great interest in their studies and consequently her name may be found on the Honor Roll each month. She is a good scout and everyones friend. GARNET WOLFORD. This handsome young man joined our ranks this last semester, being of a timid nature the girls have not been very successful in getting acquainted with him. The boys have made better headway and report him a good fellow. He has won fame in the history class and believe he would make a good history teacher. CLARICE PORTER. Because of her interest in her studies she. has won the good favor of the faculty Page Thirteen TIrPTQNIAN --1 9 4 .2 o--- Qa rare thing to be done.7 We think that Clarice has her mind made up from what we hear about her interest in a certain young man who resides in Indianapolis. ALDENA DURHAM Here is a little girl born down on the farm. She was rather quiet when she first joined us but she soon blossomed out and we are afraid she is getting as low as ninety in deportment. R PAUL SMALL L Another new addition to the class who is a regular sky painter when it comes to height. Paul comes from the country but we don't think he will choose farming as his occupation. He journeys to school every morning in his Ford with Freda Paul as his companion. In the short time he has spent with us Paul has won the good will of all. CLYDE EWING. Although Clyde seems to be of a quiet nature he wins friends wherever he goes We are glad to know his ambition is to be an electrical engineer and the good Wishes of all follow him. DONALD HINKLE. Lon confes from Goldsmith and We were glad to have him 'join us as he is a good student. We do not know of Don ever having a date here but he has a suspicious dim- ple in his chin and according to the old saying: A dim ple in your chin the devil within. CLYDE LINEBACK Clyde comes from Kempton and has shown himself to be quite studious and in- dustrious. He also is the possessor of curly hair Qthis being rare in our classy and this fact makes him a valuable asset. Page Fourteen PAULINE -SWIFT AN merry heart and aLatin poney maketh a cheerful counten- ance. HERMAN SPRINGER No maids need smilelat him. I FREIDA O'BANION A little learning is a dangerous thing. HUGH DOWNING We grant that he has much wit, and isn't shy to show il. ALDENA DURHAM Earth changes, but thy soul and God stand sure. Ppge Fifteen Page Sixteen ORINTHA RILEY I n thy face I see the map of honor, truth and loyalty. JOHN MATHEWS I 'm one of these fellers 'at the folks call slow. PEARL COLE - She talks, then talks some more and still she talks. EUGENE SANDMAN There is great ability in knowing how to conceal one's ability GARNET WILSON The riches of the commonwealth Are free strong minds and hearts of health. y EDITH MOOD Opinion as it were, the queen of the world. FREIDA PAUL U nsel fish and noble actions are the most radiant pages in the biography of the soul. ROBIN ADAIR Happy is he who has found his'work. BEATRICE OSBORNE ' If my heart were not light I would die. WILMA SMITH There was a soft and pensive grace, a cast of thought upon her face. I Page Seventeen i i Page Eighteen GERTRUDE PRESSLER Just a quiet maiden! CLYDE LINEBACK The wisdom of wise men is oft interpreted as modes! y IVORY PHIF ER To make friends will not be hard. LOWELL GREEN No poet wept for him. HONORA O'HARA Her name, her wit, her manners are all Irish. IDONA LEAVITT High aims form high character. CLYDE YOUNG Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much Wisdom is humble that he knows no more. LUCILLE STILLWELL The highest wisdom is continual cheerfulnessf' HOWARD WILSON When ignorance is bliss 'tis folly to be wise. ELOISE HARTLEY A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market. Page,Nineteen Page Twenty FELICIA TETER. A noble type of good heroic womanhoodf' RICHARD NASH Common sense is the knack of seeing things as they are and doi-ng things as they should be done. JUNE ADAIR Only a sweet and virtuous soul. PHILIP MCCARTHY Faint heart never won fair lady. NEVA DAWSON A With thoughts beyond the reaches of our souls, MABEL ORR A spirit still and bright with something of angelic light. DOROTHY JONES They are only truly great who are truly good.

Page Twenty-one Page Twenty-two MARIE PURVIS She hasn't an enemy GARNET WOLFORD A graceful and pleasing figure is a perpetual later recommendation. MYRAL SMITH L ife is what we make it, be it joy or sorrow. ALLEN APPLETON 'V Does but little, would rather do nothing. MARGUERITE TETER At learning's fountain it is sweet to drink,,but it's a nobler privilege to think. RUTH GOODMAN Fair is she and young. LEO LEBO The more we study the more we discover our ignorance.

Page Twenty-eight TIPTONgIAN --1 9 2 o-- Senior Class Prophecy While we were in Hindustan taining the natives, one of our many distinguishedlac- quantances chanced to be a Hindu prophet. His power as a prophet lay in a mysterious crystal. After much persuasion we succeeded in gaining his permission to gaze into the crystal. At first there was an indistinct blurr. Then we begin to discern the familiar faces of the Class of '20. The first member of our class to be recognized was Mary Adair whom we saw as a great Prima Donna and who has become a regular Human Shank. The next familiar face was that of Philip McCarthy. We saw him as a wealthy old bachelor leading a gay life on New York Broadway and that he is looking forward to a happy marriage with one of the most important figures of the American stage, Miss Felicia Teter, who has won much fame playing in Shakespearian roles. Next we saw Clarice Porter, Always very much interested in Dramatic Art now playing in the Ziegfield Follies as leading lady. The intelligent face of Clyde Young next came to view. We saw him holding a responsible position at Sears Sz Robuck as entertaining salesman. He and his good spouse formerly Miss Garnet Wilson are step- ping high, in swell Chicago sassiety. Then Robin Adair as pastor of one of the most aristocratic churches of Slakum and his good wife, Miss Eloise Hartley, one of the society belles of Hobbs, Indiana, and the Winsome and charming daughter of Rev. and Mrs. U. S. Hartley. The distinguished face of Senator Hap Appleton next came to view. It is through his influence that Miss Pearl Cole is holding the responsible position of secretary to the President. Oh yes! we saw Ruth Goodman as teacher of Zoology in the Chicago Zoo. She has become a daring lion tamer and snake charmer. And Allen Warne! Horrors yes! Super- intendent of a gang of Dagoes in Italy. Next we saw Ivory Phifer as a farmerette of Rolling Meadows and the beloved wife of Don Hinkle a wealty influential farmer of that vicinity. Then we distinguished Garnet W. Wolford as a young ambitious playwright attracting the attention of our greatest literary critics. His latest production was a comedy entitled Miss Maggie Clothespins with June Adair and Laura Grishaw as leading ladies. It will probably be remembered that one of the most successful organizations during the war was the Salvation Army, we saw Dick Nash, Edith Mood and Clarice Dunn as devout members of this institution leading in the Doughnut lines. No more faces were easily distinguished but one day we were surprised to meet Myral Smith and she informed us that Lowell Green had become a leading detective in New York City and that he was full of romance and adventure. We were also informed Page Twenty-nine TIPTONIAN --19 2 0---- that Mary Manlove was Wearing a chip diamond on her engagement finger which she blushingly admits that Lowell gave to her upon the confession of his love. And that Hugh Downing was become quite a politician. He ran on the Reform ticket last spring and was elected by a large majority. He won Neva's tender heart soon after which they were united in married. Through correspondence with Viola Slater we learned that a pretty romance had developed between two of our most popular class-mates: Idona Leavett deliberatly stole the heart of John Mathews and soon after they eloped and were married. Also that Florence Richards was playing in HY-CLASS Vaudeville under the name of Florence Ricardo. - After reading a book entitled How to Avoid Wreckage on the Sea of Matrimony imagine our amazement to see that Paul Small was its author. Freida Belle Paul is a Spanish teacher of T. H. S. and is soon to be married to Charles Seward who is superin- tending the janitor work. Another case which attracted much attention during om' Senior year was that of Dudo Wilson and Mabel Orr. This attractive couple set sail on the sea of matrimony on the memorable day January, Friday 13, 1921, in the year of our Lord, Amen. P. S. Forgive us for writing this but the Tiptonian needed material. HONORA O' HARA FREIDA O'BANION .,.. t Page Thirty Qf az, ff fifbjfj Q-7 --'Jil-41,57 X I ,QU f 'W 5 C mx 5 .i 1 Q T 1 Q Q ?

S. in the fall of '1 just as many other green freshiesn have done. After a week of roving through T. H. S. halls of Fame we finally settled down to Work. The following officers were elected: Presi- dent, Paul Richmang Vice president, Mary Mendenhallg Secretary and Treasurer, Blanche Miller. Our colors were green and White and our motto Never do today what you can do tomorrow. The next fall we entered T. H. S. as Sophomores and were all that the name implies-wise fools. As Juniors we hope next year to be the best represented class that ever marched in triumph from the portals of old T. H. S. Hurrah for the class of '21. GERALDIN E LEAVELL '21.

Its early childhood was very eventful. Having been endowed with the ability to get into scrapes, we early iden- tified ourselves as botanist pedestrians. Since Messrs. Dixon and Walter were new in the ways of Tipton High School as we were they felt a sympathy for us and so re- frained from expelling us by the dozens. Our first party was at the home of our darling Peggy Nash, on which occasion Miss Pate distinguished herself in the chaperone line. We also enjoyed the hospitality of Irene Bozel and Anna Zimmerman. Our Freshman class meeting was something like a firecracker without a fuse on a rainy Fourth of July. However after much discussion we chose maroone and white as our class colors and Dent, the best friend a Freshman ever had for our class advisor. Shorty Harrison who was born to be president of the United States began on us. It was that year too that Elroy Hinnman won the basket ball renown which led us to choose him as president in the Sophomore year. Mary Crail was made vice presi- dent and Paul Lebo secretary and treasurer. Since then '22 has not seen one dull moment. After a very enjoyable party at the home of Glen Bouse in Sept. the faculty sent forth the edict that there should be no more class parties this year. Mary Crail and Pauline Nickey decided A rose by another name would smell just as sweet.

At the first of the year after We became accustomed to Freshman work a class meet- ing was held in room 11. The officers were elected, the class colors were chosen and arrangements were made for the first party of the year. The president, Louis Conroy, is one who is especially lnown. CAmong the girls.D Of course the girls could not be forgotten, Cnot if they could help ith so a girl was elected vice president. The unlucky one being Anna L. Cunningham. The treasurer, Alfred Havens, deserves a certain an ount of credit because out of ninty-seven pupils he is the only one that can count without making a rnistala e. The colors are old rose and silver. ' While we were still fresh to High School work, the first class party was recorded on the annuals of the class. It was held at Oren Eglers country home, some four miles from town. There was a hay ride and wiener roast in the woods. This was the most enjoyable event of the year. , We Freshmen haven't undertaken any special event by ourselves but we have al- ways taken a most important part in the history of this years work. There have been more events recorded in the High Schoo1's annuals this year than ever before and the Freshman class has always done its share of the work assigned to it. We all hope that we may be able to uphold and keep the high stand ard of the Sopho- more class as faithfully as we have the Freshman Class. Our motto is To Expect and Respect. VIVUS V.

Owing to the practical value of Latin as related to English, the Ro- man languages, sciences and the higher professions, the majority of the freshmen select this course. Besides the regular class work, the play, A Roman Wedding, was presented by the Sophomore class, March the seventeenth, and the Latin club gave programs from time to time during the year. The club meetings were not frequent as anticipated. The leading officers of the club, elected at the first meeting in Sep- tember, were Neva Dawson and William Grishaw, consuls, Eloise Hartley and Ruth Leatherman, Praetorsg Honora O'Hara and Edith Mood, Quaestors. At the October meeting, a program in keeping with the spirit of Hallowe'en was rendered. A translation of The Haunted House by Pliny, was read and papers concerning Roman Auguries, Omens and superstitious was given. Even the ghosts of Caesar, Cicero, Ver- gil and Horace appeared. Miss Ethel Bert as Cassandra, told fortunes. After the pro- gram a bounteous Hallowe'en luncheon was served. The November meeting was held at the home of Miss Pauline Swift. 'Ihe subject for the evening was The Roman Dinner The hunger aroused by such a discussion was mitigated when our charming hostess ser- ved refreshments. A truly enjoyable evening was spent. The January coming was a sled ride and a sleigh ride to the home of Miss Carolyn Yontz. QRight here we should mention that the coming away was just a sled ride and a leading of a horse and sleigh. j The greater part of the evening was spent on the itintenary. At the house, the program was impromptu, each member participating in music, reading or some stunt, The merriment of the evening was caused when a reproduction of the descent backward and downward from the sleigh was acted. Ask Mary?! The hospitable host- ess not only furnished the sled, friends and relatives for our cause, but a delicious repast as well. O, that chicken sandwich and O, that sleigh ride! The club contemplates a final social meeting in honor' of the Senior members, Honora O'Hara, Pauline Swift, Neva Dawson, Eloise Hartley, Edith Mood, Aldena Durham, Florence Richards, Freida O'Bannion, Marie Purvis and Ivory Phifer. The Latin department now possess four Roman togas and tunics owing to the generosity of the students.

E. DILLON INSTRUCTOR The commercial department was started at the beginning of the school year and was limited to the Senior class during the first year. Beginning next year both Seniors and Juniors will lie included. It takes two years to complete the course and a a number of the Seniors will continue either in the Tipton Summer school or attend some Business college. The object of this department is to equip those intending to adopt a business career with a practical knowledge of the principles and processes of business affairs. To this end instruction is given in Bookkeeping, Stenography, Typewriting, Com- mercial Arithmetic, Commercial English and Spelling. The first instruction in bookkeeping is the basic principles. The next step in the course is the practical application of these principles through the use of separate books each having a distinct purpose. The course consists of a series of transactions each accompanied by all documents to which give rise, such as invoicing, notes, drafts, checks, receipts etc. What the student will be required to do when he becomes a bookkeeper in a busi- ness office he is required to do here. A The Gregg system of shorthand is taught. This system is easy to learn, easy to write at high speed, and easy to read. It is being taught in '75 per cent of the schools. When this course with typewriting, English and spelling is completed the student will be competent to meet the requirments of government and commercial positions. Com. Arithmetic is the basis of bookkeeping. Abundant drill is given in the funda- mental processes. Particular attention is paid to such subjects in the text that are con- nected with business. A portion of the time is given to rapid calculations which se- cures accuracy, and rapidity in the different processes. The correct construction of the English sentences is made the basis of the English work. The object is to enable students to express their thoughts both written and spok- en in a clear straight forward manner. As far as time permits spelling is given attention. Much of the stenographers success or failure will depend on his ability to spell. The Commercial department of the Tipton High School during this first year had an excellent class of students and good reports will be expected of them in the future, when they have finished the course. Already a number of students have been able to do a limited amount of outside work along the commercial line, and when they have finished they will be capable of filling responsible positions.

At the very beginning of school the various departments were organized consisting of girls and boys glee clubs, chorus, orchestra and quintette. The orchestra has fifteen members and is one of the best ever trained in this school The enrollment of the girls glee club is thirty seven, boys glee club twenty eight, making a total of sixty-five for the chorus. Mrs. Love believes in going right to work and she had the orchestra play before the assembly the first week cf school. They have played on the average of once a week during the entire term, and their music has been eagerly looked forward to by all. The glee club likewise appeared before the assembly several times. After having had about a months work, a recital was given at the Christian church. The program was reported by the public to be far above the average. It consisted of songs by the chorus and glee clubs, piano, violin and vocal numbers. Next came the work of studying for the operetta and now that it is successfully finished, we are starting to practice for commencement. All in all the music department has proved a valuable asset to the school, in instruc- tion as well as in pleasure, and we all give Mrs. Love our hearty thanks and appreciation for her excellent supervision.

F-If .Arr-r V, f The Senior Class Party The Senior class was royally entertained at the beautiful country home of Myral Smith, south west of town, on Friday night, Oct. 17. Games and contests of all kinds were played and never will we forget the way our staid old Senior Dick Nash looked all dressed up in feminine attire which must have belonged to someones great grandmother. With his big sleeved jacket, full skirt, carpet bag and diginified look, he was a scream. Later in the evening the things which one always looks foreward to out to Smith's, apples and cider, were served, also generous boxes of other good eats and all the fifty- fifty you could drink. In obedience to Miss White we all, including Laura and Scrubby, left at eleven o' clock, everyone having had a very good time and appreciating the kind hospitality shown us. O Hara San Tuesday morning everyone in the assembly had a tired sleepy look. There were suspicious fixed blushes on the girls cheeks and pencil marks around their eyes. And if one looked close enough he might discover a long yellow streak behind some young man's ear. Paper crysanthemums adorned the button holes of a few coats, and snatches from O Hara' San floated through the halls. For Tuesday was the morning after the night before. On Monday night March 26th the musical department of Tipton High School assisted by the orchestra and fifty girls from Departmental, gave the Japanese operetta, O Hara San. The Operetta given at the Martz theatre, was the best musical production ever Page Forty-four TIPTONIAN --1 9 2 0- put on by the school. Mrs. Tasa Love, music teacher, trained the chorus, orchestra, and leading soloists in their different numbers and she deserved great credit for her thor- ough work. W. T. Herman, a playwright of Chicago, was engaged to stage and coach the play, and was very efficient in his work. Mary Adair, as O Hara San, filled the role to perfection and Paul Richman, as Kashi Kintara, was excellent. Norman Frisz as the father, Kanaya, Bernard Muston as the old prince, and Graydon Harrison as the Go-Between were all good. The part of Toya San was well given by Edith Spencer, and Julia Reynolds made an ideal Japanese maid. The maids and students will always remember the haunting strains of Alas Poor Blossom, and Tubby Kinders vain attempts to Dance gracefully. ORATORY Great interest has been shown in oratory by the members of the school and by the instructors, Miss Pate and Mr. Dixon. Orations have been given during the year by several students: Edwin Bennett, Pearl Cole, Irene Bozel and Pauline Swift. All these students deserve much credit for their work. There was also a discussion League organ- ized which was very beneficial to the members. Honora O'Hara was chosen winner of this league, and also won second place in the Discussion at Frankfort for which our school feels very grateful. Several pupils are now preparing orations for the preliminary oratorical contest which is to be held Friday April 23. This years work in this line has been more successful than ever before. Have You Heard? Kind friend, have you heard of the town of No Good On the banks of the River Slow Where the Somewhere or Others scent the air And the soft Go Easys grow? It lies on the valley of Whats the Use In the province of Let Her Slide It's the home of the Reckless I don't cares Where the Give it Ups Abide.

With the opening of the Basket Ball season Tipton High School faced the strongest schedule in the history of the school and with but one player remaining from last years team, Coach Walter Was forced to develop a squad from inexperienced material. By hard practice and under the careful coaching of Mr. Walter the squad was soon rounded into form and were able to complete their shedule in good shape. Although the team did not Win the sectional tournament at Kokomo the season as a whole proved quite a success. Page Forty-six I A N T I P T O N 1 9 2 o---- Nov Nov. Nov Nov. Nov. Dec. Dec. Dec. Dec.

Tipton High School Athletic Motto FIGHT FAIR It is better to lose with a conscience clean Than to win by a trick unfair, It is better to fail and to know you've been, Whatever the prize was, square, Than to claim the joy of the far off goal And the cheers of the standers by And to know down deep in your inntost soul A cheat you must live and die. Who wins by trick nfay take the prize. And at first he may think it sweet, But many a day in the future lies When he'll wish he had met defeat. For the man who lost shall be glad at heart And walk with his head up high, While his conqueror knows he must play the part Of a cheat and a living lie. The prize seems fair when the fight is on 3 But, save it is truly Won, You will hate the thing when the crowds are gone, For it stands for a false deed done. And it's better you should never reach the goal Than ever success to buy. At the price of knowing down in your soul That your glory is all a lie. Page Forty-seven TIPTONIAN ----1 9 2 0- Track Soon after the opening of school, a fall track meet was staged by Mr. Walter at the city park, beginning Mon. Sept. 29. The track meet as conducted this year was for the purpose of interesting the largest number of students rather than specializing with a few individuals in order to turn out a good track team. This is in line with the new idea of mass athletics which is being instituted in the colleges and universities to a great extent, and was the means of attracting a large number of participants who otherwise would not have tried out for the several events. Class captains were appointed and there was much competition between the classes as well as individual point winners. The grading of points was so arranged that the weakest athletes stood a fair chance in competition with the best ones. Gold buttons were awarded to those securing two thousand points or more. Silver buttons to those securing one thousand five hundred points and bronze buttons to those securing twelve hundred. The medal winners are listed below with their relative stand- ing. Gold buttoneLeo Lebo. Silver Button-Glenn Warner, Ralph Preston, Paul Lebo, Harold Coy.

The track schedule for spring has been completed as follows: April 23-Noblesville, here April 30eElwood, here. May SAC. I. A. A. at Delphi. May 15.-Sectional meet. May 22-State meet. At a meeting of track candidates, Wm. Grishaw was elected captain of track work for this season and prospects for a good track team are very bright. With Capt. Grishaw, Glen Warner, Paul and Leo Lebo, who were. members of last years team, still in school, Tipton should be able to make a fine showing. Although the bad weather has prevented out door track work, the team has been practicing indoors and should be in good condition on the opening date as compared with other schools.

They planned to be gone for quite an extensive time cruising around in the southern Pacific. However, their trip was to be more lengthy than they had anticipated, for when several hundred miles out from San Francisco their light yacht ran into a terrific storm and was demolished. The three men and part of the crew were washed upon a small island after be- ing in the water for several hours. Picture to yourself this bit of land, covered with the greenest of tropical verdure, a small channel running deep into it. The ocean surround- ing it and stretching away in a great flat plain. At first when these three men crawled back to life after the disaster which had cast them upon the sands, this island seemed a very paradise. It was land and land meant life to them then. Every day the tide brought in gifts from the sunken ship. Real treasures were car- rfed in, wood, tools, coal, furniture, canned goods, canvas and even books. With these things the men were able to live very comfortably. The climate was warm and there were different tropical fruits and fish were plentiful. The three men were very sad and lonely at first and Complained bitterly Of their l0t Page Fifty ' TIPTONIAN -1 9 2 0--- until one morning, about the third day after their exile, the smallest and meekest of the three, was caught singing and dancing hilariously behind a great clump of ferns. He stopped abruptly and looked exceedingly sheepish when he saw his companions staring at him in blank amazement, then he straightened himself and made a sweeping bow Fellow outcasts, he cried, this is the first real holiday of my entire life, which has been cramped and penned in by civilization and the narrow mindedness of society. From now on until the end of my stay on this island which I have named 'the garden spot of the Whole earth,' I intend to enjoy myself to the utmost. Then followed days of perfect contentment for all. Fishing, swimming, exploring the remote parts of the island, and as the scientist shamefacedly remarked, A much needed rest from my wife's incessent nagging, which was followed by a likewise confes- sion from the business man, of his wife's unceasing demand for clothes. Lord if I only had that woman on this island, she'd wear more what nature intended for her to, he added fervently. Five weeks later these self same men, disguised by coats of deep tan, long hair and beards, three modern Robinson Crusoes sat about their camp fire and prayed that they r. ight be given at least one more week of their primeval, happy life, but civilization was on the watch. Only a short time had elapsed, when one day a gleaming white vessel steamed into the small bay and lowered two boats into the blue water. The happy three watched these proceedings with dismay and heart-sinkings, for they knew their time had come. As the boats neared the land seven people could be made out besides the sailors who manned the oars. About the first thing that caught the eyes of the men, were a high silk hat and shining monacle, also a pink parasol, a pile of butterfly nets and a huge cam- era. The trapped three gazed at each other in despair and disgust at the apparition, then turned their backs on the civilization coming and gave their last sad farewells to their beautiful wild paradise.

Our joys and our pleasures are over, All racket and whispers cease The room is all wrapped in silence When Walters steps through the door. He gets busy who has been idle, There is silence where noise was before, And our books have for us a new interest, When Walter steps through the door. There is a lull in the audible whisper, A pause in the noise and uproar, And our minds are plunged in our studies When Walter steps through the door. We may stir up a great commotion, And throw things on the floor But many a poor lad is captured When Walter steps through the door. Then let us be up and ready, For soon the brief life is o'er Let us be watching, waiting and ready, When Walter steps through the door.

NEVA DAWSON '20 Page Fifty-five TIPTQNIAN --1 9 2 0- An Embarrasing Mistake Barbara Highman, who was twenty eight years old, was a very pretty and very efficient teacher. She had just secured a position at a boys college in Pennsylvania and was very proud of the fact. The president of the college was a very kind old man and it was with real regret that Barbara bade him goodbye when he resigned because of ill health. The next day the college was without a president but the new one was expected to arrive at any time. Barbara was in charge of the assembly. She was feeling rather vexed and tired because the boys were unusually noisy. They thought their pretty new teacher would be very lenient. Unless the assembly is quieter I shall make every boy stand, exclaimed Barbara This was greeted by a loud laugh from the boys and they grew noisier than ever. She commanded them to stand and, grinning sheepishly, the boys stood up with the exception of one young man with dark hair and eyes and an amused grin that irritated Bab. Will the young man in the back seat please stand? she asked angrily. The young man remained seated, with difficulty trying to repress the smile on his face. Come to the front of the assembly, ordered Bab. After some hesitation the boy walked to the front looking very grave except for the twinkle in his eyes. You may stand here the rest of the period, Bab informed him. He stood silently until the period was over and then hastily left the room. The impudent young man, thought Bab. I shall report him to the president. At that moment Miss Brown, the latin teacher, entered the assembly and informed Bab that the new president had arrived and wished to see all the teachers in his office. Barbara hastened to the ofiice. A crowd of teachers surrounded the president and all she could see was a curly dark head that looked vaguely familiar. The next moment she found herself shaking hands with the impudent young man who had vexed her. Could it bee? Yes it was the president who was beaming mischievously at Barbara. JUDITH J. OGLEBAY. February 16, 1920 1 Religious Activities in T. H. S. The daily prayer meeting held services at the usual period today. Rev. Hull Cole delivered an inspiring and uplifting sermon on Why girls leave Home and The ex- periences of a young man while having his first date, pointing out Freddie Stockdale down at Clara Davis, as a good example. Sisters Bishop and Blount then led the singing, which was highly appreciated by all, especially Andrew Sanford Durhamfmay his tribe increasej who was trying in vain to Page Fifty-six TIPTONIAN --1 9 2 o--- get his first year latin. After singing the anthem, which was done from memory, running along like this, Will there be any stars in my crown? No not one no not one. Sister Beyersdorfer, seeing the need of song books, presented the members with two hand some volumes entitled, Great Revival Hymns and Devotional Anthems. Just at this time while enthusiasm was running high, Bro. Crum came in from his brain-wracking work in Algebra, and was welcomed into the fold. Mike Cole was awarded a picture card with two little lambs on it, for being the best and only member of the Junior Department. Sister Beyersdorfer happened to glance over her left shoulder and caught Oren Egler in the act of slipping a magazine Qno doubt a police gazettej from a nearby desk. She remonstrated with him for this sinful act and in doing so called him brother, to show her forgiving spirit, but on second thought she decided that it wasn't just the thing to do, for it is said she used to have quite a case with his elder brother Leo. A committee was called, to decide different problems which arise from time to time. The first question concerning Hugh Downing, was decided upon as follows, Resolved if Hughie isn't careful he will wish he had a wooden leg, so that he can keep his sock up with a tack. Second question was, what to do with Edwin Bennett who is a typical heathen during service hours. Edwin readily accepted the title of heathen when he thought he might get all the missionary money. This question was left open till the next meeting. The meeting was temporarily broken up when Scrubby Frisz came back and insist- ed upon shooting craps on Rev. Coles pulpit. Also Eloise Hartley took it into her head to make a social call on one of the members at this time. When at last these two left for their respective desksat the front of the room where they belong under the teachers watchful eye, the meeting continued. Testimonies were given and then sister Cole took up the collection, an overshoe taking the place of the usual derby hat, the collection consisted of one carpet tack, three wads of chewing gum papers, a piece of string left from Bill Maynes lunch Che always insists in eating his lunch on Helen Grishaws deskj however he generally leaves the string, and an old note of Mary Mendenhalls, of course no one could ever guess who put it in the collection. Just then the bell rang and the members hearts rose in their throats, for lo, in their religious fervor they all had forgotten to study their lessons. And now underclassmen let this be an example, take heed and profit by their mis- takes. Never, never! try such things in school, but always leave them for their approp- iate time and places, study and cram diligently while in school and go to prayer meeting on Thursday night. PEARL COLE '20. Page Fifty-seven TIPTONIAN g..-1 9 2 o-- Proposed Summer Course Several weeks ago Mr. -Walter announced to the students that a summer course would be given to those who had lost credits if there were enough interested in the matter and the use of the High School Building could be obtained. This is very encouraging to quite a number of the students, who on account of sick- ness and other causes had lost their credits. The summer course will continue for eight weeks and it is probable that quite a number of pupils will enroll. MILDRED GROSE. Parody on Hamlets Solilquy To flirt or not to fiirt, that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler on the street to pass by, With eyes lowered or to look up and with Rolling and twinkling of your orbs, and by Doing so, be called a coquette, and by a coquette We mean to say, one who has a heart of stone, and the outward appearance of a butterfly. 'Tis a person so to be envied. To smile, to flirt, to coquette-perhaps to love-ay, there's the calamity. For in that love, what troubles may come, When you have shufiied off that thought of losing him, You find him untrue. There's the loving affection one May have for one's would be cousin. So take my advice, if you want to do right, ' And be a coquette, and Hirt, with all your might. E. C. A. '21 Peggy To My Dearly Beloved Pig Named Peg.

Page Sixty-two T I P T O N I A N 1 A 9 2 0 Stafford Engravings and Stafford Service Our conception of service to the schools we work with includes much more than merely giving the highest quality of engravings that it is possible to produce. We always take a keen interest in both the financial and artistic success of every Annual for which we are privileged to prepare the engravings. It was this interest that prompted us in the prepa- ration and publication of the Stajord Handbook, Engravings for College and School Publications which we furnish free of charge to the Annuals for which we work. The success of this book and the fact that we were the originators of this method of co-operation, is to us a source of considerable pride. The publishers of this Annual will tell you that in the planning, Jinancing and preparation of their book, this Stafford Handbook was a veritable gold mine of helpful ideas and suggestions. V A copy of this book, in addition to all the direct and individual co-operation you may need, and all the benefit of our nearly thirty years specialization in col- , lege and school engraving, is available to all schools that appreciate good service.
