Sturdy, determined pioneers hacked away at the edges of a raw continent and, with blunders and achievements alike, modeled a country with a spirited nature and a united commitment to individual liberty for every one of its citizens. Americans, great and not so great, have given us a heritage to carry on and improve upon. Farmers and soldiers, industrialists and merchants, dreamers and leaders, are all there in two centuries of progress. But the maturing isn't finished. You'll find the boundaries of growth as endless today as when our forefathers first envisioned them. You can seek out your own destiny with the wisdom and judgement which comes with re-creation of the past. Your knowledge, dreams and industry will carry on through many more centuries of living history.

The colonists reacted in seething resentment which erupted into angry protestations. The first blood of the American Revolution was spilled during one such incident at Boston in 1770. Several Americans lost their lives over a snowball thrown at a British sentry. In the fight to achieve commerce equality, the United States found itself in a naval war over shipping lanes. Fort McHenry was hcriocally held during a British naval bombardment, and the stars and stripes still flew after a night of hard fighting. The next morning Francis Scott Key penned the immortal words of what would become the national anthem Settlers had to have permanent access to the new lands, so canals and bridges were built to carry stages and wagon trains loaded with machinery destined for settlements in the West The pioneers foresaw great wealth in the cheap acreage that was available Frontiersmen cleared the wilderness, built settlements and drove back the Indians. The Pony Express and the telegraph became primary means of communication Agriculture was the wealth of the country. American inventions of the time were often related to working the soil. The McCormick Reaper, mowing machines, textile looms and the cotton gin were instrumental in the settling of new frontiers. In 1848, james Marshall found gold in the race of a sawmill he was building for John Sutter at Coioma, California The lust to get rich quick ' was the force behind this biggest and gaudiest gold rush ever. While gold rush fever gripped the country, states were increasingly more divided on the slavery issue. Civil war broke out in the East. This Brothers War- was bitterly fought and, though the scars remain even today, slavery was abolished. Cities grew at an alarming pace, often without regard to the limits of safety. The great Chicago fire oi 1871 burned the bustling cattle market empire beyond recognition. But the pioneer spirit was not broken. Chicagoans began rebuilding and preparations were underway to celebrate the 100th birthday of the country. The Iron Horse, carrying homesteaders, greatly helped settlement of the new country. The first transcontinental railroad connected the country at Promontory Summit. Utah, on May 10, 1869 Transportation was setting the pattern for the American way of life The country became a mobile society with electric trolleys automobiles. farm machinery, and bicycles, all the rage Along with the accessibility of travel came a new era of nationalism. A World War called upon the nation's young men to unite and fight After the war in Europe, the nation pulled itself together and industry flourished once again. A carefree America buried war memories in the new moving pictures, telephones, light bulbs, electric generators, stock market ticker tape machine , phonographs and a wealth of inventions from the fertile minds of its young inventors. Baseball became the national sport and prohibition was law. Black Thursday. October 24, 1929. saw the American stock market crash to the lowest level in history. Panic set in as the unemployment level skyrocketed The country was in its worst economic crisis. Slowly, but surely, the wounds of the crash, the dust bowl. and poverty healed. SHSeL RATION!

Upon their return from four years of battle, the veterans forged ahead with an eve on a better life for everyone. Several moderate recessions in the 50s and 60s remindeJ cautious citizens of past decades. Nearly 100 years of strggling for civil liberties were realized when President l.yndon Baines Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 into law The Act outlawed segregation in any form The seventies shed light on a new trouble for the nation as it approached its 200th birthday The world energy sources and natural resources were being used up faster than they could be replenished. Americans once again waded into a new frontier. The energy crisis and ecology were prominent words in the language Ways to save nature from the neglect of mankind and ways of preserving precious fuel without damaging that balance of nature were the objectives of Americans across the country. Huge strides were being taken in the scientific field Television became a part of every family's life National events were household topics — while ♦hey happened — thanks to the new medium Individuals and group were seen on the tube a they advocated new social reform, or justice, or special causes of their own TV gave individuals and political systems power greate: than ever before.

S « A«ton.o Ttas (Teus Independence day Marc 2.1836) THE CHANGING NATION Ownership of land had been just a dream to most of the colonists from feudal England. With the great expanse of cheap land opening up in the West, the dream became reality. The Louisiana Purchase of 1803 opened the first sizable frontier in the Midwest, but the nation was not ready for it yet. It took a growing market in the East, where land was getting high-priced and scarce, and development of good transportation, to really start the frontier movement. The Gold Rush caused hordes of settlers to take various routes to the Pacific Coast and its yellow riches. The railroads brought farmers and ranchers, along with the miners, who decided to stop all along the routes and build their homes. Railroads were instrumental in the quick civilization of the West, bringing people in numbers so large that the resentful Indians were finally pushed back into unwanted and infertile areas. America became a haven for immigrants from every nation as freedom beckoned them to the teeming cities of the East, the plains, and the rich west coast farmlands. Sick of the Civil War and with their own lands divided up and lost, many Southerners set out to begin again in the virgin territories. Westering soon became the national tradition as North and South moved together toward a new life. Americanism was advanced socially, by the hard-working, bare-fisted types who settled the frontiers.

The Htirtxxl Wire Fence. Patented by J. F. G lidded. Without realizing it, England instilled in the colonists the individual purpose and ingenuity that necessity breeds. With trade goods cut to a minimum, determined young leaders of the time set out to find ways of surviving without support from the Mother Country. Agricultural methods and machines and labor saving devices were designed by our forefathers. As frontiers opened, Yankee genius had to conquer natural barriers in the wild new country, so suspension bridges were invented and methods of transportation were perfected for the purpose of opening the untamed areas. Later, they sought to section off the land with the revolutionary and controversial invention — barbed wire. Cooper's 1-horsepower Tom Thumb train in 1830 and later, automobiles like the first Model T, and the 4-horsepower airplane ; became American modes of travel from city to city and coast to coast. Americans knew that the fertile lands of this nation would produce unequalled harvests if machines were designed to take over for man. They knew also that trade routes were difficult to travel and manufacturing would have to be done close to home. The cotton gin, textile looms, drill presses and a reaper which could cut six times as much grain as a hand scythe were some of the tools invented. Protection for themselves and for their young country prodded inventors like Eli Whitney to perfect firearms and others to work on plans for the first submarine. Young inventors like Alexander Graham Bell and Thomas Edison (called the nation's most valuable citizen) visualized machines that would light the country and open up communication with those in the far corners of the nation. The telephone, telegraph, phonograph and the first light bulb were discovered in the late 1800's and early twentieth century. This American way of doing for oneself inspired many to become inventors in their own right. Some sought to save labor and mass-produce for profit while others envisioned not only riches, but excitement and adventure as they discovered ways to defy nature. Throughout the past 200 years the American mind has been unleashed to take whatever paths necessary to fulfill the needs. In the last half-century, the pace of discovery has been overwhelming and inventions for the taming of the universe lie in the grasp of America while the habit of finding a way'' is ingrained in its people. The seeds of industrial America were sown by these inventors resulting in today's mechanized society.

Or. even at the higher price of $10. Those are the prices offered to our founding fathers to encourage settlement of the wilderness areas of this nation. A stage wasn't the most comfortable way to go. but you could get from city to city for as little as $3 — at the amazing pace of six miles per hour. Compare today's wages with a 12-hour day in the early 1600's. A man earned 50c a day. Of course his dollar bought a little more than today's. Butter in 1826 was about 5C lb. in the Midwest, eggs. 3c doz.. corn oc bu.. wheat. 25c bu.; and a cow could be bought for $5. With travel becoming the American tradition. you could choose train, wagon, horseback or the water. A canal ride, with bed and board included, averaged 3 or 4c per mile. And when you reached your destination, you could sit down to a 5. or even 10 course meal for 25c (Ladies 20c. in consideration of appetite.) Farmers in the early 1800's could own the famous McCormick Reaper for a mere $100. But the Civil War increased prices as the machine became the first item farmers could buy on time payments for the sum of $1,500. A good suit of clothes then might cost $1.95 and ladies waists (blouses) were marketed for 49c to $3.50 with a whole dress pattern priced at 15c. Cookstoves, quality-satisfaction guaranteed. could cost you $29.25 at $4 per month and a dandy heating stove could set you back as much as $5.73 and up. The first electric refrigerator cost $900 — which might be enough to make you faint on your 1907 fainting couch that had cost a mere $7.85. Your new baby travelled in the height of fashion in a wicker sleeping coach (stroller) for the sum of $12.04. If you had $1,500 in 1903 you could show off in one of the first automobiles. Ah. those were the days. Some of the current prices are reminiscent of those days, but at frontier prices, which were a whole different story Hardy pioneers had to pay $2 a pound for sugar, too. And the same for a pound of coffee or pepper. Those items were only 15c per pound back in civilized St. Louis. Flour was marked up 100 times for sale to the frontiersmen and during the famous Gold Rush, that precious commodity went for $400 a barrel. PERRY DAVISS VEGETABLE PAIN KILLER.

They are FROM LEFT TO RIGHT, Beverly Bollinger, Treasurer; Janet Baum, Secretary; Annette Malott, President; Jon Branson, Reporter; and Mike Snowden, Vice-president. After accomplishing this task, we got our first chance to show our school spirit by decorating the football field for Homecoming. Our attendants for Homecoming were Ketra Baker and Darren Jones. During winter we had our money-making project, selling candy. We are now begining to feel more like a part of high school and we look forward to the time when we will be seniors. 76 J. BAUM B.

In our freshman year we were scared and nervous, but, we have now fit into place and are ready to face the rest of our years with a smile. This year we have broken the previous record for selling magazines, set by last years sophomores. We were as much a part of this years homecoming as anyone, this time decorating the halls and supporting our team. Not to leave out the homecoming dance, with our attendents as Stan Adcock and Tammie McCormick. 82 83 R. HAYES K. HEITZ D. HEZLEP M. HICKLE D. FORBES C. FOUTES C. FREDRICK T. FREELS 84 R. M A LOTT T.

Porter Being Juniors of the 75-7 6 school year. We have accumulated many accomplishments. As Freshmen, we sold candy. When we were Sophomores, we pedaled magazine subscriptions. As Juniors, we have sponsored the bonfire, concessions at basketball games, and the organization for the Jr. -Sr. Prom. We have even put on a play. All of these endeavors are to raise money for our Senior Class trip. Raising money is not easy work, but it draws us closer as classmates. In preparation for ruling the Freshman class next year, some of our most promising Juniors have designed a new form of weaponry. ee S. ADCOCK K. AZBELL L. BAUM P. BELDEN 89 J. CURRENT K. DANNER R.

For most of us, we're looking ahead to the future, to the long road ahead that will probably turn out to be shorter than expected. In years to come, we will look back at these pictures and remember certain people, and all the good times we had. All the dances and parties, the bake sales and other fund raising activities. All the football, baseball, and basketball games. And especially we'll remember friends made and lost, people we'd forgotten and people we could never forget. 94 (JjJttL ■ £ - 'sjtcascstt 'T OaSuOL v OUTSTANDING SENIORS SALUTATORIAN GREG BUSWELL ) P.

I. -T. area to study the American way of life. They had no pre-planned trip, but their american hosts took them on a variety of small excursions, including St. Lois, Spring-field, and New Salem. A few of the girls went with Mrs. Webb on her science club trip to Chicago, and all of them including the chaparones went with Mr. Snowden to Navoo. The girls 116 were introduced to some delicious american delicacies which included peanut butter, chocolate milk shakes, and juicy fruit gum. The three weeks they stayed with their american hosts was truly a great experience for everyone concerned.

Our monday night meetings were hectic and hurried. The first few weeks seemed never ending, with patron ads taking up most of our time. We went to Macomb, Astoria, Table Grove, Vermont, Ipava, Adair, Rushville, and Summum to try and raise money for this years annual. We then had the task of assigning pages and organizing the ladder (or order in which the pages go). It took quite awhile to decide what kind of pictures to take and the best time to do them. Our deadlines came up on us many times sooner than expected, but with the help and cooperation of all members, we met each deadline as expected. At times things didn't go as well as expected, but all the same, everyone had a good time, lots of fun, and learned things they hadn't known before. AUTOGRAPHS AUTOGRAPHS AUTOGRAPHS AUTOGRAPHS
