OR the past ten years, the educational welfare of the boys and girls of Tomah has been intrusted to the supervision of Mr. F. M. Bray. During that time, though the city has increased approximately only ten per cent, due to his efficient management the enrollment of the High School has increased eighty-five per cent. This unusual con- dition has been brought about by the greater opportunities given the pupils of the High School. Developing from strictly academic courses, the school now offers vocational courses, manual -training, domestic science and art, commercial, and teacher's training courses having been introduced. But the additional opportunities are not limited to these alone. The unwritten courses also have been enlarged as Tomah High has won recognition in forensic as well as on athletic fields, contests in oratory, declamatory, and debate, sharing honors with foot-ball and basket-ball contests. The Tomah schools have earned a reputation which has made them prominent among the schools of the cities throughout the state and have been highly commended by the State Department of Education and Mr. Bray has been responsible for their success. In the grades, the natural differences of abilities of children have been recognized and mid- year promotions have been made possible by the introduction of the mixed grades , saving many a child from discouragement and from a half year's needless repetition of work. During the ten years of his service in Tomah, Mr. Bray has been unusually successful in establishing a spirit of harmony among the different elements under his guidance- between the parents and the teachers and the school. He has furnished inspiration to his teachers and ever held them to the highest efficiency and service. He has won the con- fidence and respect of the community and has always held the interests of Tomah at heart. The people of Tomah will gratefully remember the long and faithful service rendered them by Mr. Bray, and wish him now on his departure from their midst, continued success in his new and broader field of work and influence. He was fallible and human, Therefore loved and understood Both his fellowmen and pupils, Whether good or-not so good, Kept his spirit undiminished. Never lay down on a friend, Played the game 'till it was finished, Was a Sportsman to the end. Vale!

A few weeks hence we shall cease to be a unit and shall become individuals in aim and action. Though we look forward with eagerness to the new world of life which opens before us, still it is with keen regret that we bid a last farewell to Tomah High and the memories and traditions that have become dear to us through long associations. In our farewell to the inanimate brick edihce through whose portals numerous classes have passed before us, we pledge our honor to keep sacred the said traditions. To those teachers who have given freely of their time and effort to bring us up to the usual scholastic standard we wish to state that their sedulous efforts were neither wasted nor unappreciated. At this time a few words on the value of education is not amiss. Many reasons have been assigned for the present period of unrest. Some people claim our government is wrongg others that our social system should be changed, still others that it is due to a lack of understanding on the part of the large mass of uneducated people, of the real idea of happiness. Education evidently plays a most important part and will eventually solve the problem. An educated man or woman will not be led astray by the fanciful dreams of a social reformer but will refer to history for their answer to present day problems. That history repeats itself is a proven fact. Education along the right channels makes for good American citizens, patriotism and a true spirit of democracy. The problem confronting our class on graduation is novel. During the war and re- construction period, labor unions have succeeded in securing wage increases much in excess of the pre-War rates. On the other hand, the mental workers who are ununionized are still working at pre-war rates. The teaching profession is a glaring example. What shall we do? .loin a labor union and commence earning wages immediately on graduating or matricu- late at the university and after four or five years more study graduate to a job paying less than a manual laborer receives? This is the problem which faces each member of the class and can only be answered by the individual. Our guardianship over the undergraduated has ceased. We believe that we have exhibited examples of earnestness, industriousness, loyalty and efhciency which will be remembered and followed. If our example isn't sufhcient, we feel certain that Mr. Bray will Rnd other means to inculcate those principles as he did in the past when we were in- clined to diverge from the straight and narrow lane. In the years of our association we have exercised our right of seniority by tendering you advice and counsel. Much advice was good but we freely confess now, that some was poor, bad and indifferent. We beg to exercise this preogative for a last brief word of counsel which if adhered to will make your short stay in school one of ease and self satisfaction. Obey the Golden Rule, For every one will say The biggest of all fools Is the one who'll not behave. -WILLIAM MORAN '20 TOMAH Hl GH HAMOT '20 Class Of l 920 XVELLS FOSTER ANDERSON ll Y, Andy MODERN CLASSICAL COURSE Football 3, 4, Why doesn't your mother train your hazr better?

CHRONICLE N THE SIXTH DAY, in the ninth month, in the year of our Lord, nineteen sixteen, there entered into this land of learning six-and-seventy seekers of knowledge. Some came from the eighth grade, where they had for many months been busily engaged in storing their minds with the honey of wisdomg while others were green and fresh from a far country. And it came to pass, as they did enter this land that they were received with great rejoicing and with malicious glee by a certain band of wild beings called sophomores, who, because of their fierce taste for freshman blood, did pour upon them daily and nightly and did cause them to suffer great things. Y And as they dwelt long in the land, they fell in with the customs of the inhabitants, their strangeness wore od, and they became as one among the rest. Nevertheless, the tribe agreed that a King was needed, and Kenneth .lohnson was chosen to rule their realm. The band of freshman with their mighty physical and intel- lectual power, did think it necessary to start practice in basket-ball, for competing with other teams in future years, and they proved very successful. And it came to pass, that after some months many left this land of learning, and began to make excuse. One saith, I am poor in health, therefore I cannot remainf, Another saith, I must needs toil at home, therefore I must leave and thus did this class decrease in numbers, until the whole number at the end of the Hrst year was sixty-four. 2. CHRONICLE Now it came to pass at the beginning of the second year, that a new band of youths did come up from the adjoining territory, and the Class of 'zo in the dignity of their pro- motion, remembered the days of their own greeness, and as the sophomores of their day had done unto them, even so did they do unto these new freshmen and did show no mercy unto their sufferings. A new King, Howard O'Leary, was chosen, and Viona Beane and Karyl Aller were his aids. The football team would have been led in the paths of affliction had it not been for Nipe and Bucco. Then as the class had gone on its several ways for many moons its eyes were turned toward vacation. Five fair damsels and virtuous youths left the fold that year, and they did forthwith stray to distant lands. Thus ended the Sophomore year, and its numbers were lessened to sixty-three. 3. CHRONICLE Now in the year eight and ten, on the third day of the ninth month, the juniors be- thought themselves of the work which was before them. They all rushed to school and when they saw the sophomores and the freshmen running wildly about the halls, they began to do likewise so that their mighty chieftain warned them and he spake, saying, Thou shalt not follow after them, turn away from their childish pranks for thou art juniors and worthy to be called 'Upper Classmenf 'l And they did as their chieftain commanded them and straightway they became more eager to begin their work. Then all the members of the tribe gathered themselves together that they might choose a King to rule over them, and they elected William Moran to the place of honor, and he did rule over the juniors and did execute justice to all. TOMAH HIGH 25 HAMOT '20 Nor were the Class of ,2O any the less renowned in declaiming, debating or in music than in football or basketball. Then the King ordered the twenty-fifth day of the fourth month, to be set aside in honor of the seniors. And immediately the youths began to polish their armour and to prepare themselves that they might find favor in the sight of the fair ones. Aye, even all the juniors set to work that there might be rejoicing and revelry. And when that eve was past they once more took up their work that they might not be found wanting in the finals. But aa the year drew to a close six of the tribe fell by the wayside so that the number at the end of the year was hfty-one. 4. CHRONICLE Now it came to pass that the fourth year of the history of the Class of '20 opened with much rejoicing and some tears. On the second day of the ninth month of the year nine and ten, the mighty host of seniors gathered in their accustomed places. Their number was composed of fifty strong and vigorous youths and maidens. All were swelled with much pride and vanity, for they had at last reached the close of their journey, with but a short distance yet to travel, and were preparing for their departure from the land of learning. After some days they assembled together, and after much considering and reconsider- ing, William Moran, renowned for his great wisdom and voice of prophecy, was again chosen as King. Now that they had found themselves a ruler, badges were chosen in the form of rings and pins, with which their class would thence-forth distinguish itself from all others. From the toils of war returned to us hve strong and stalwart youths and they did add unto the class strength and distinction. Now, life proved that work must be done before the departure. Verily, in the flowery path of learning loomed the lnterscholastic Debate. And lo, into the roles of debators were entered the names of three seniors, Arnold Lenz, Theodore Kampman, and Lloyd Reynolds. And these, after much labor and toil, were deprived of the privilege and honor of conquering. Then came the Declamatory Contest in which the damsels of the land took part. And behold Wilda Rabe spoke in such sweet and stirring words that the seniors carried off the honors. ' Hearing of the mighty skill of the seniors, the learned and talented came from far and wide to compete with them. But lo, again the Class of '20 sent forth their champions in football, Wells Anderson, Kenneth Johnson, Phillip Kress, James Lowe, William Moran, Howard O'Leary, Harry Plunkett, Lloyd Reynolds, Otto Storkel, and Lawrence West- lake for the last time. Also Howard O'Leary, Winnie Mick, William Moran, and Lawrence Westlake showed their great skill for the last time in basketball and so great were they that lo,-they had to travel far to find a worthy opponent. Only a few more times will we be gathered together to celebrate the departure of the Class of ,20. On the twenty-sixth day of May we shall meet and for the last time make merry and rejoice in the success of our class. Then will all proceed on our way along the thorny paths of life. But no more shall all gather in one place, but each one takes his own way. And four and forty shall depart from the land of learning and verily the knowledge and power thay have gained shall be as a star which shall ever lead them onward. H. T.-420 HAMOT '20 26 TOMAH HIGH The following story received first place in the Senior Story Contest: A Strange Vision T WAS ENROLLMENT DAY at Tomah High School, but down in the halls sounded no clatter offeet, no shrill shrieks of uncontrolled laughter, no noisy groups on the stairs. As each pupil arrived he or she was taken in by the principal and led up the stairs to the assembly room. On opening the doors, faces of old friends loomed up before them, and greetings were exchanged with a hearty handclasp and a faint smile. But strange as it may seem there was no noise of any kind. Everyone acted as if he were at a funeral. The girls and even the boys were as quiet when they played as when they worked. And so through all the day things moved along in regular order and without confusion and noise. The office was never crowded for the students walked quietly in, registered and walked quietly out again, without loitering to laugh and talk. Everyone was satis- fied with his grade, and there was no complaining or bitter feelings. When the bell rang for classes, an orderly procession of students entered their respec- tive class rooms, and with exceeding care so as to make no noise they seated themselves. And even though the teacher at the desk forgot to ring the bell for hve minutes after time, only expressions of sympathy were heard for his forgetfulness. Day after day passed and still the same undisturbed silence reigned. No one needed to be reproved for misconduct, for never was seen a better behaved student body. And when they went into room Hve to have Geometry explained, they expressed their enjoyment in quiet smilesg nor did they deign to notice their worthy instructor, although she was quite disconcerted over the fact. So things went on week after week, and still no change. Lessons were learned to perfection, and if anyone fell below Q0 in grade he was eyed with such stern disapproval that he, with all speed, brought up his marks. One day a most terrible thing happened. There was one girl who was held in suspicion by the rest, because she had presumed to laugh-think of it-dared to raise her voice in alaugh in passing to class. After a consultation of friends it was decided to try her for a week and if she failed to reach her standard of conduct, she must be forever blotted from their memory. Awed and frightened by their grave faces she subsided into perfect con- duct for a month. But her love for fun at last conqueredg she gathered her friends together and behind locked doors, with the keyhole carefully padded with cotton, she suggested that they all bring alarm clocks the next morning, and send them pealing forth at eleven o,clock. Such an unheard of thing so stunned them that they could not utter a sound, but sat speechless in amazement. Then as the awfulness of it dawned upon them, they lost all control and for the first time that term the hall echoed with one piercing scream, and all fled in terror from that scene of plot and wickedness. Mercy! What was that? Oh! The alarm clock already. Well I suppose I must'get up as it's eight o'clock and I haven't any of my lessons learned. What a terrible dream I have had! I simply must stop annoying my teachers or my nerves will certainly give way. I hastily jumped into my clothes and with a slick to my hair, ran down to break- fast and then to school, where a crowd of noisy school girls met me in the hall. What a relief it was to hear the tumult and the clatter can never be imagined.

The Mourning Veil WIDE, uncovered piazza ran along the front of the Stover house and there two little girls were playing keep house. They had their doll dishes, and other play-things strewn about, but were beginning to lose interest in their house-keeping and visiting. Suddenly the younger of them said, I'lI tell you what! Let's play funeral! How? Well, we can play that my Josephine Maud Angelina died and that we buried her. That will be splendid, lets have her die right off. Immediately after the death of Maud Angelina, her grief stricken mother said, Now Kate, we must put crepe on the door knob to let people know about it. You run over to the house and get Mammafs long black veil. It ought to be white for a dollie, oughtn't it ? I guess you forgot that Josephine Maud was a married lady and a widow lady at that, didn't you? You remember how Teddy Davis' horrid dog chewed poor Josephine's husband up. Katie went away and soon returned with a long black mourning veil. It was quickly tied to Mrs. Stover's front door knob, then the bereft Dorothy's grief broke out afresh, and she wailed and wept so vigorously that Mrs. Stover said, You little girls are making too much noise down there. Mr. Stover's sick and you disturb him. My husband wants to go to sleep. How unfeelingf, said Dorothy, snatching up her dead doll and other playthings. They departed quite forgetting to take the veil off the front door. I I-Ialf an hour later Marie Simmons came down the street and suddenly stopped in front of the Stover's house. My sakes alive! if there isn't crape on Stover's door. I knew he was sick, but I didn't know he was at all dangerous. I must stop in on my way home and find out about lt. She would have stopped then if it had not been for the eagerness to carry the news to those who might not have heard about it. A little farther she met an acquaintance. Ain't heard about the troubles at Stovers have you? What trouble? Sam Stover is dead. There is crape on the door knob. I was in there yesterday, and Sam was up and around the house, but I could see that he was a good deal sicker than he or his wife had any idea of, so I ain't much surprised. My goodness mel I must Gnd time to call there before nightln Mrs. Simmons stopped at the village post office, to ask for a letter, but really to im- port her information to Uncle Don Whales, the talkative old Postmaster. Heard about Sam Stover? No, I did hear he was quintin' round a little bit, but - - - He won't quint any more, said Mrs. Simmons solemnly. He's dead. How you talk. lt's so. There's crape on the door. Must have been dreadful sudden, Mrs. Stover was in last evening an' she reckoned he'd be out in a day or two, well as ever. I know, but he ain't been well for a long timeg I could see it if others couldn't. The news was now spreading from another source, and in that way caused those who heard it to declare that it was perfectly scandulous for Mrs. Stover to carry on son. Joe I-Iigley, the grocer's delivery man, after leaving some things at the Stover house said full of indignation, That Mrs. Stover ain't got no more feelin' than a lamp post. There is crape on the door knob for poor Sam Stover, and when I left groceries there, Mrs. Stover was fryin' doughnuts, cool as a cucumber an' singin' Way Down Upon the Swanee TOMAH HIGH 29 HAMOT '20 River loud as she could screech, an' when I said I was sorry 'bout Sam, she just laughed and said she guess Sam was all right and then if she didn't go on jokin' me about Tildv Hopkins. U Old Mrs. Peevy came home with an equally scandulous tale: I went right over to the Stovers' soon as I heard 'bout poor Sam, and if you'll believe me, there was Mrs. Stover hanging out clothes in the backyard. I went right aroun' to where she was an' she said just as flippant, Mercy Mrs. Peevy where'd you drop down from? I felt so s'prised and disgusted that I says, 'Mrs. Stover, this is a mighty solemn thingl' and if she didn't just look at me and laugh with the crape for poor Sam danglin' from the front door knob, and she says, 'I don't see nothin' over solemn 'bout washing and hangin' out some of Sam's old shirts that he'll never wear again, I'm goin, to work 'em up into carpet rags if they ain't too far gone even for that. 'Mrs. Stoverf, I says, 'the neighbors will take on dreadful if you ain't careful, and she got angry and said, 'If the neighbors would attend to their busi- ness she'd attend to her's. I turned and left without even going into the house. The Carbury Weekly Star came out two hours later with this announcement: We stop our press to announce the unexpected death of our highly respected fellow citizen Mr. Samuel Stover, this afternoon. A more extended notice will appear next Week. Unexpectedl I should say sol said Samuel Stover as he read this announcement in the paper. A more extended notice next week. I'll write that myself and I'lI extend it far enough to let that editor know what I think of him. But how did this crape get on the front door? interrupted Mrs. Stover. I found it there when I went out to get the paper. It's the straight thing - - -there is the minister coming in the gate! Do calm down Sam! I-Ie's coming to make arrangements for the funeral, I suppose. Mr. I-Iavems, the minister, was surprised when Mr. Stover opened the door and said, Come right in. If you want to go ahead making arrangements for the funeral, I'll give the main points myself.

The Young Patriots Forward, March l shouted John, take this prisoner to the guard house. Private Jones, you guard him, Private Smith return at once! John was always captain when the children of the neighborhood played soldier for the simple reason that his father was captain in Uncle Sam's army, and he had told the other children that none of them knew as much as he did about war, because there were no soldiers in any of their families. Little William Roberts had a brother in the army, but he was only a private and besides, William was a newcomer in that neighborhood and of course a newcomer couldn't be captain. Captain, said Private Dick Sanders, we are in need of two more flags, a French and an American. Do you know where we can get them? Just a minute, I'll go and see. Please take charge of the company until I come back, and John strutted off in true military style. He went over the fence, crawled underneath it and started for the street. In front of the drug store he saw a huge car, and on the front of it were three large flags, the French, British and United States. Just the thing,', thought John, and calmly walked up and took them off the car. Just as he was starting away the owner of the car came out of the store. Hey, you young scamp, bring those back here,', he called angrily, shaking his caneg but as John paid no attention to him he started running after him. John got to the fence scarcely three seconds before the man did and barely had time to crawl under. The space in the fence was too small for the man, known in the city as Judge Wells, so all he could do was to stand on the outside of the fence, peek thru and shake his fist at John. When John got back to his playmates he did not stop to tell them of his narrow es- cape, but relieved Private Sanders of his duty and went on playing. Just as he was order- ing his men to start digging a trench, a man walked up to one of their flags, which was stuck in the ground, and kicked it over. Now at home John had been taught, above all things, that the American flag should never touch the ground, and when he saw the man do this he yelled with all the might in his little body, Company-Charge! The boys saw where he was pointing and made a rush at the man and soon had him rolling on the ground. The man started to yell and call the boys names but they kept on hitting him and jumping on him. Mr. Wells had started to go away but came back to take a second look at John, so that if he ever saw him again he would know him, and was just in time to witness the man kick the flag and the boys' charge . He stood and watched them and soon his anger gave way to enjoyment. After the boys had had the enemy down for about live minutes, John called, CompanyKcease firing! and as quickly as lightning the boys stood up. The man was only too glad to escape. As soon as he had gone, Mr. Wells went to a near-by store, purchased enough flags for a whole company and also soldier suits, but for John he got a real captain's suit, and instead of a flag, a small sword and a toy pistol. He sent them back by a boy and told the boy to bring John to his house next day. The boy did as he was told and carried the suits and the flags to the children, all of whom were spell-bound when they saw the things and each one strutted around the neighborhood all of the afternoon displaying their pos- sessions. The next morning the boy came to take John to the Judge's house. John went many times afterward, for the first day he went, Mrs. Wells was greatly moved by his likeness to the small boy she had lost barely a year before, and the sound of the childish voice in the large house cheered her and made her forget her own sorrows.

Diary of a Freshman Sept. 2-I started school today with some misgivings, nor were they unfounded, for I Sept. Sept. Nov. Dec. Jan. Apr. I May missed one class. The sophomores try to make the freshmen miss all the classes they can, by telling them the wrong way to the rooms, for they have just newly come out of the green stage themselves, so they want to get even. I am in the Main Room and the school is so crowded we have to sit two in a seat. My seat-mate is a senior, whom I like very much. I-le says the sophomores are a disgrace to the school the way they tell the freshmen such stuff. 3-I was all wrong about that senior, .lack Crawford, he certainly is a signboard because he tells everyone the way but does not go that way himself. The class I missed was in the Sub-Assembly. I asked him the way, for I thot he'd tell me correctly. He said, Go up two flights of stairs and go thru a narrow hall, at the end of which you'll see a doorg go in there. I found out to my cost that the seniors are as bad as the worst sophomores. 30-Well, September has gone and nothing much has happened since my last entry in the diary, except that I forgot to go to a class, and, as I was not given a permit, I could not go to the class for a week. I thought I'd never get all the back work made up. 29-Went home for Thanksgiving and we were invited to the parson's for dinner. Everything went all right until I spilled my glass of water and became very much embarassed. 31-Went home for Christmas and have just returned to be in time for school, which is to start the day after New Years. 2 -The second semester began today. We drew seats and I am in the Main Room, row two, seat one. When the principal said, Monitors, I got up with the rest, but did not know what to say, although I had heard them say numbers every morning and noon for four months. I had asked a junior what they did that for and he had a'nswered, They are only reciting arithmetic. So when the monitor to the left of me said, Row one, numbers three and sixf' I said, Sir, I don't take arithmetic. I thought the others would never stop laugh- ingf bat I didn't see any joke. The principal then explained to me how to ca ro . -.lack Benton fooled me this morning by telling me to step on a certain board on the porch and a bell would ring in the house. I did, not noticing the pail hanging over my head. Attached to the board was a long stick, so that when I stepped on it, the rod tipped the pail and spilled the water all over me. 30-School is going to be out June ninth and the graduating exercises will be on that day. There are forty-four seniors who will graduate.

Our musical Organizations have been called on Several times to take part in public performances, and es- pecially in benehts given for the high school. An Operetta, The Isle of Chance , given at the Armory December Bfth, under the supervision of Miss O'Leary and Miss Drowatsky, was a great success.

A School Spirit LL of us know what is meant by School Spirit. No matter what part we take inn the activities of our high school we learn to recognize the attitude and feeling which we call by that name. Without it the school is dead-merely a place to recite our lessons, and then to leave as quickly as possible. All through life, in looking backward, we regret those things we did not do at the time they should have been done. And so, in reviewing our high school life we see where we could have gained by taking a more active part in the school activities. It is too late for the graduating class of IQ20 to make amends, but a golden opportunity awaits the rest ofthe students in the years to come. We haven't all the same ideas, likes, and dis- likes, but there are enough activities of various kinds to satisfy every taste. One surely ought to find something of interest among athletics, the musical organizations, declaming, debating, and others. Taking part in one of them gives something of interest in the school besides studies and paves the way for the next step. One gains new friends, and through them, others, and so broadening through what they give. Soon a feeling of good fellowship extends among the students, and the school comes to stand not only for a place of books, study, and recitation , but also of friends and pleasures. If one cannot take an active part, then let him do the next best thing, that is support and boost these phases of school life whenever he has an opportunity. Let him come to the games and contests, and let him help cheer his school on getting into the spirit of the crowd and feeling that he has something in common with the rest of the students. The parties of this year have been very few, the freshmen and sophomores startings things by giving one in McCaul's Hall. Later one was given by the school but did not prove successful. However, the Upper Classmen are anticipating the .lunior Prom. The life of school spirit does not end with graduation. This important step from school life into the outside world serves as a means by which this spirit of friendship and good fellowship is changed into love for the old school which is shown at all gatherings where the old pals get together once more and talk over their high school days. This spirit of good fellowship is a natural love between student and his school without which school life would be a tedious grind, and no sweet dreams would remain to the graduate of the happy hours and the good times which existed in old Tomah High. EQMAH HIGH 39 T HAMoT 'zo Special Courses HE special courses of our school are comprised of Manual Training, Domestic Science and Art, the Teachers' Training Course and the Commercial Course. I shall attempt to discuss brielly the work of two of theseg Domestic Science and Art and Manual Training. Both of these courses extend to the students and eighth grades of the city and parochial schools. They have a class of eighty minutes daily. In the Domestic Art classes the various stitches, seams and hems, and the applica- tion of them to simple garments is taught. Also patching, darning, button-hole making, and the making of underwear and simple dresses. Work on the different kinds of cotton, woolens and linens in the market is also given. With this help they will know how to select materials and the proper prices to pay for each. Lessons are given on general house- keeping, including furnishing decoration, and care of the house in general. The Domestic Science work has been a great success ever since its adoption into the school a number of years ago. This work includes dish washing, care of kitchen and dining room, and the cooking of all simple foods which are used in the average home. In addition to this, the planning, cooking, serving, and approximate cost of meals forms a part ofthe work. The study of the composition and nutritive value of the common foods and their place in the diet is also taken up. Lessons on hygiene and sanitation are also included. This year the Hot Lunch work, which was carried on under the supervision of the cooking classes, and served by the Teachers' Training Girls, was a great success. The aim of this was to serve at least one hot dish to supplement the cold lunch brought by those who could not be at home for a warm meal at noon. This work started December sixth and closed March tifth, covering a period of eleven weeks. During this time there were fifty-one meals served. The largest number of persons served at one meal was sixty and the least was thirty, making approximately two thousand persons served during this time. The cost per hot dish per person ranged between three and seven cents. This covered the cost ofthe material used. HAMOT '20 40 TOMAH HIGH Another new problem taken up in the Domestic Science and Art classes this year was the study of household budgets. These budgets were made out by the girls for a family of four people whose income was one hundred dollars a month and others whose income was one hundred twenty-Hve dollars a month. Through this work the girls obtained a better idea of household expenditures, and the saving of money from one month to another, in order to meet the heavier expenditures of which fuel is a good example. An example of a Budget for a family of four whose income is 55125.00 a month, an average of 11057 was saved, 25q, spent for groceries, 14fZ,M for shelter, .06'Z, for heat and light, .0375 for for insurance and taxes, and .08fZ, for miscellaneous, .o8fZ, for meat, 18072, for clothing, recreation, .02fZ for church, .04cZ3 including doctor bills, etc. Money Food Heat Recre- .

Prob- lems such asg different ioints, are applied to glove boxes, bird-houses, small taborets, footstools, etc. The eighth grade boys are permitted to make a problem of their own choice toward the end of the course. The high school pupils have drawing for the first nine weeks. They begin by re- viewing the work of the grades. The boys take up such problems asg straight lines and geometrical construction, free hand lettering, isonetric projection of problems drawn, cabinet proiection, drawing of ellipses, and drawing of all problems that are made. They have lettering for the Hrst fifteen minutes of their eighty minute periods. Some of the problems and exercises to be made are, dove-tail joints, mortise and tenon joints, book racks, upholstered foot-stools, library tables, telephone stands, etc. Wood hnishing is also taught. Lectures are given telling about the different trades, what they offer, conditions under wl1ich they work, wages received and various other helpful topics. Also lectures on glue, varnish, shellac and paints. The Teachers Training girls take this work up for one period of forty minutes daily. They have a little drawing and make simple things such as bread-boards, foot-stools, pedestals and fern stands. M. S. '2o. TOMAH HIGH 4-l HAMOT '20 A Thrift Story QWRITTEN FOR DOMESTIC SCIENCE CLASS, N the pantry of an American home stood the remains of an elaborate dinner. Dirty kettles and dishes stood everywhere, and by the loud roar of conversation and the clanking of dishes and pans, one might think that a fierce quarrel was taking place. They say it started in the basket under the table, when the potato opened its eyes and saw the heavy parings of its own kin scattered around. Oh! dear, I don't see why they can't be more careful in paring us. If they keep that up it will soon be my turn to go. You needn't worry, said a good sized carrot lying among the parings, Look at me, a helpless being, in the morning I will be thrown away. Upon the table a stack of unwashed dishes was speaking. Wonder why we were not washed tonight, said a saucer which contained a soiled piece of pie. Oh, answered a little mouse, the family is entertaining in the parlor, they will not wash you until morning. That pie looks kinda' good, but I like cheese better,'7 and he began gnawing on a piece of cheese which was carelessly wrapped in paper. A loud call was heard from the garbage can just outside the window, where Mr. Lemon lay, suffering with just a tiny hole in his side. If they wanted to use me, why didn't they take all of my juice, instead of leaving it half with me to go to waste. Some poor people would be thankful if they had me as I still am. How nice it would be if our mistress would be a little more thrifty. We would all be up in neat shelves and when we would have to die, we would die without having the thought of how extravagant some people are. A stale biscuit said: If women would only keep budgets and realize how much we cost and how much they waste, things would be different. When they do the work in a hurry because they have to get to the movies at 7:30, they don't even stop to think whether we are near our enemy, the mouse, or not. .Iust then the conversation was interrupted by a shrill scream and a great noise, as Mr. Mouse jumped over the dishes to the floor and into his hole at the side of the cupboard. The dishes stared in amazement to see what had happened, and looking around they saw the big black cat enter, for by the carelessness of the housewife, the pantry door had been left ajar. That cat didn't come for a mouse, why should he, when he can help himself to the cream and bread which stands around in open dishes? Now he is helping himself to the cheese which the mouse had enjoyed. The cook intended to have that cheese for lunch, but let her be dissappointedg it will only help her toward the great goal.

HAMOT '20 44 TOMAH HIGH Athletics me TOMAH HIGH 45 HAMOT '20 2 1 Athletics ' URING all the years of Tomah High School there has not been a year as successful in athletics as the school year 1919-1920. The football squad had a team of ex- ceptional ability, it being the strongest team Tomah has had for some years. Out of six games Tomah lost one to the strong LaCrosse High. The material that was out this year was very promising, most of them having been on last year's team and having a bit of practical experience on the gridiron. Coach Beach, coach for Tomah High three years ago, then put the team through strenuous practice until he had a perfect machine that worked like clockwork, and when clashing with the best teams in the state showed the excellent coaching they had received. Much of the football team's success is due to Coach Beach, whose untiring efforts made it a team for future Tomah students to be proud of. Football Games Tomah 106-HCFC -Cov't.

TGRADUATES SPARTA o-TOMAH 3 On Saturday, Oct. 25, Sparta, for many years rival of Tomah, went down to defeat before the strong Tomah squad. This game was the biggest game of the season, as Tomah and Sparta have had a friendly rivalry for many years. The Sparta School, it was re- ported, had a strong team, even stronger than Tomah. When Sparta held La Crosse to a 3 to 3 tie, Tomah was badly upsct, but Tomah decided to do or die. The first quarter started with Tomah kicking to Sparta. The battle started. For four downs Tomah held Sparta and the latter was obliged to punt out of danger. By line plunges, forward passes, the White and Gold put the ball on Sparta's 5 yard line. Sparta held them for four downs on this critical position. When Sparta received the ball they punted out of danger. Having worked the ball to the 25 yard line, Graff of Sparta, tried to drop kick, only to have it fail. From then on neither side had the better of the other, keeping the ball near the center of the field. HAMOT '20 46 TOMAH HIGH The second quarter was begun. The same tug of war started the second quarter. The ball not getting very far from the center of the field. The outstanding feature of this quarter was a 35 yard run made by H. O'Leary. While dodging Tibbits, the Sparta quarter, he slipped and before he could regain his balance, was tackled on the 20 yard line. The third quarter was just as strong a battle as the two preceding quarters. Both teams battled constantly to prevent the other from getting the advantage. During the fourth quarter Tomah had a little the better of Sparta. By constant hammering, forward passes and end runs, Tomah put the ball on Sparta's 40 yard line. Finnerty then signalled for a drop kick. O'Leary then booted the ball between the posts for 3 points. The line held like a stone wall, not letting a man through until the ball was high enough not to be blocked. Tomah then kicked to Sparta. When Tomah again regained possession of the ball they worked it up to Sparta's 40 yard line. Again a drop kick was tried, the ball missing the goal posts by inches. The teams played a few minutes longer until the hnal whistle blew. The score stood Tomah 3, Sparta 0. NO one man could be picked out ofthe two teams as individual Stars, as all the men played a good hard game of ball and exerted themselves to the utmost. The teams showed a sportmanslike spirit throughout the contest. Bert Mann, Capt. of the Badger team of '18, refereed the game. GRAND RAPIDS o-TOMAH 40 Another game that deserves mention is the Tomah-Grand Rapids game. The Northerners came down here with a good record. A good game was played, although the score does not show this. The Grand Rapids team out-weighed the locals, but in spite of that they could not make any progress through the Tomah line. The one thing that the Northerners were weak in was the forward pass. The first half, Tomah kicked to Grand Rapids. The ball zig-zagged back and forth for a few plays when Grand Rapids made a disastrous fumble. Herman, end, recovered the ball and raced for a touch-down, making Tomah'S first points. The touchdowns then piled themselves one on top of the other. The forward pass completely bewildered the Northerners, and time and again Tomah would work the ball up to Grand Rapids' 5 yard line with forward passes, then push it over through the line for a touchdown. The last touchdown was made by Westlake, who intercepted a forward pass and raced Q5 yards for a touchdown. When the Hnal whistle blew the score stood, Tomah 40, Grand Rapids O. In this game the locals put up the best game ofthe seasong the line should be given much of the credit, as they held like a stone wall, and time and again they would break up plays before they were well started. The backfield also showed what they were made of, and by their end runs, line smashes, and running back punts, put thrill after thrill into the rooters.

On January 3, the boys donned their basketball suits and started practice. Four of last years' men were back which made the team considerably stronger. The team always puts up a good game of basketball, showing good passing, team work, and good basket shooting. THE TEAM H. O'LEARY CCapt.D .............. Forward G.

Sub. Guard L. EARLE ....,......,......... Sub. Center BUCCO O'LEARY fCAPT.D Bucco played the forward position for two years, and well he deserves the position. Not a man that has been put against him to guard him has been able to stop his scoring. Although they try to stop him by putting two guards against him, his scoring ability is the same. Bucco always puts up the same exhibition of good playing at every game. Tomah High will greatly miss him on her future teams. RED GRAHAM Red played the other forward position. Although he is a little fellow, the guards placed against him are always in constant terror because of his quickness and scoring ability. He will be at the game another season, and then watch him. WES WESTLAKE Wes,' played center for the team. Although he is not very tall, he gets the jump on his man. He is the fastest man on the team and his floor work is a sight for sore eyes. At every game this season he has managed to out-play his man, be he large or fast. Due to graduation, his position will be vacant next year. FIN FINNERTY Fin played the guard position. Although he is a small fellow, his man would be lucky if he registered a basket throughout the game. He is quick on his feet and always uses his head. His scoring could always be relied upon. TOOZ MICK Tooz is that type of a player who never fails. He played guard the entire season and just when we thought our opponents would score, out of the mist Tooz would come and calm our fears. On the defense Tooz was a wonder. As he played forward last year, his offense work was as good as that of a forward. He is a senior and from now on will fly under other colors. His ability is sure to be recognized, and we will hear of him, BILL MORAN BilI', played sub. forward. When in the forward position, he always scored. He was a constant menace to the guard for he was always able to tear away from him. He played in enough games to win an honred letter. RAY MORAN Ray Moran played sub. guard. His man was never able to get a basket. He will be with the school another year, and because of his guarding ability, will be a valuable LOODIE EARLE Loodie played sub. at the center position. When he was put in the game his length made the opposing center weak. He always got the jump on his man. He will be back next year and then watch him. undoubtedly. man to the team.

The team this year had three reg- ulars who played on last year's team, this old material made it an exceptionally strong team. The first game played was with New Lisbon on Dec. 19, for a practice game. Tomah beat them 22 to 48. When Christmas vacation was over, the team was put through a hard grill to get them ready for some of the stronger teams that they were going to meet. After much practice, Coach Beach had his team in trim for some of the strong teams that were on the schedule. TOMAH 38-WATERTOWN 25 On Jan. 15, the Watertown aggregation came here with high hopes of defeating the Tomah team. The team was one of the strongest teams in the state, having beaten Mad- ison Q to 4. The hrst half of the game was fast and cleanly played and at the end of the hrst half the score was Watertown 17, Tomah 16. The second half the High School came back strong, and by their team work and effective use of the hve man defense, defeated Watertown by a score of 38 to 25. TOMAH 34.-GRANTON 18 On Feb. 21, the Cvranton aggregation came to Tomah only to go back to their town under defeat. Granton had a reputation of good standing as a basketball team. The first half was fast, with good team work. The Tomah team broke through Granton's defense time and time again and always making a basket when they did get through. The half ended, Tomah 17, Granton 7. The second half Granton had team work and at hrst it looked,as if they were just going to play Tomah off their feet, but the locals then started in and secured the ball with ease. The Tomah team put an additional count of I7 on their former score, while Cran- ton added II to theirs. The game ended 34 to I7 in Tomah's favor. TOMAH 31-'PORTAGE 27 On Feb. 27, the Tomah quintet iourneyed down to Portage and put a 31 to 27 defeat to the latter. Portage, to revenge the defeat that was put over them on Tomah's floor, made themplay a stronger game than usual. The first half was hotly contested through- out, but the Tomah's superior team work and passing bewildered the Portage team. The game ended Tomah 31, Portage 27. RIPON TOURNAMENT On March I2 and 13, the Tomah quintet went to the Ripon Tournament. They competed against the following teams: Ripon, Fond du Lac, Oshkosh, Sheboygan, Wa- bena, Wautoma, Granton. Thursday night the coaches drew places for the teams. Coach Beach drew Ripon for Friday morning at eleven o'clock. Friday morning Tomah and Ripon clashed. The score stood, Ripon 36, Tomah 11. ln the afternoon Tomah drew Wautoma for their rivals. The game ended, Wautoma 10, 'Tomah 16. Saturday afternoon Tomah played Granton. Tomah played real basketball this day, but they could not locate the basket. The game ended, Cranton 17, Tomah 13. Tomah secured fifth place at the tournament.

' HIS year we began preparing for debate earlier than usual. Almost immediately upon returning to school a debating society was formed, and adopted a constitution. The Forum , as it was called, helped wonderfully in the making of debaters to take the places that had been left vacant last June. Under the potent leadership of Mr. Langer, weekly meetings were held and regular debates and discussions took place. Finally, we received the question from Lawrence, and we immediately began for the try-out. It was the question ofthe hour: a question that was absolutely not one-sided. We received it while capital and labor were at war, which made it all the more interesting. After getting different interpretations and view points we began writing our speeches. We prepared them so as to leave no loop-hole for the opposing parties to attack. This, together with excellent preparation in rebuttal work, gave Tomah full confidence that the laurels would again be ours as they were the year before. We contended that the negative, with the witty and daring Clark to open the argument, Kelpe with his ora- torical ability to follow, and Kampman with his ever abundant supply of wisdom as the closing man, would lay Viroqua low. The three more experienced debaters on the affirmative were to meet Sparta here on the home floor. Again we were confident that with Reynolds' forceful speech as an opening, Graham with his sound reasoning to take the bulk of the argument, and Lenz to leave the final impression on the audience, Sparta would rest without dreaming of state championship. The time for the debate came. But to our sad disappointment the flu came also, HAMCT '20 5 0 TOMAH HIGH DEB MTE TEAMS and we were out ol' the game lor this year. We were confident that we could take care ol Sparta and Viroqua but the flu was beyond our control. After weeks and weeks of hard preparation and thought, we were deprived of victory, or at least of our chance, to win the victory. After our intense grief had lessened, the afhrmative team debated the negative team beliore the high school. The decision as given by the judges, Wm. MeCaul, C. Drowatzsky and T. Donovan, was unanimous for the afhrmative. We sincerely hope and believe that our bad luck this year will not discourage fur- ther enthusiasm along the line ol' debate work. VVe hope that the boys who took part in the last year's Freshman and Sophomore debate will again turn out and show their ability and take the places ol' Lenz, Reynolds and Kampman, who will graduate this year. The following is a record of the Freshman and Sophomore debate ol' IQIQ. QUESTION: Resolved, Tl1al a league of nations fo guarantee permanent peace is practicable. AFr1m1Ar1vEe-SOPH. NEGATIVE-FRESH.

This was again shown at the league oratorical contest held at Sparta April 9. Sparta, Viroqua and Tomah were each represented by two good speakers, which made the contest superior to any that has ever been held. Three impartial judges, namely: Prof. Whitney, Prof. White and Prof. Bernard of La Crosse, were judging the contest. The Hrst place was, by a small percentage, given to Gerald Foster of Sparta. The second place was given to our first representative, Arnold Lenz. While our second representative, Rolland Kelpe, received fourth. A ' f The first two winners of this noted contest will take part in the district contest to be held at La Crosse on May 9. This is the second consecutive year that we have had a representative at the district contest and the best wishes of the High school go with our representative, Arnold Lenz. QI.aterj our speaker won first place at La Crosse. HAMOT '20 52 TOMAH HIGH Declamatory T the beginning ofthe year many girls entered into declamatory work. At first, elimination contests were held, and two were chosen from each class. In the next contest two were chosen from these eight to represent the school in the final contest.

Thou shalt not Speak disrespectfully of thy teachers when they are near. 3. Five days and nights Shalt thou labor and do all thy work. Thou shalt keep holy the School nights and go not to the picture shows. 4. Honor thy teachers and your deportment shall grow and thou needest not remain after school. W 5. Thou shalt not set tacks lest an uprising result. 6. Thou shalt not gossip with the fair sex. 7. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's Physic notebook neither his problems nor his seat in the Assembly Room. ' 8. Thou shalt not run upstairs, or bluff through English nor talk in the library. 9. Thou shalt not abuse or haze the Freshies. Io. Thou shalt labor faithfully in the temple of learning from 8:30 to 3:30, per- forming diligently thy tasks and avoiding all daily reports. IT ISN'T YOUR SCHOOL-IT'S YOU If you want to go to a kind of a school That's the kind of a school you like, You needn't slip your clothes in a grip, And start on a long long hike. You'll find elsewhere what you left behind For there's nothing that's really new, It's a knock on yourself when you knock your school, It isn't your school-it's you. Good Schools are made by pupils afraid A Lest somebody else gets ahead, When everyone works and nobody shirks, You can raise a school from the dead. And if, while you make a higher mark, Your class mate can make one too, Your school will be what you want to see, It iSn't your school-it's YOU. A. L.
