(Our Jurultii •’Who lend ns into paths of righteousness and work. It may be well said that students feel the influence of their faculty. The standard of success which a student at-tains in life depends largely on who teaches him. No one has greater power to mold character than the teacher who every day is an example as well as instructor. The high ideals of our teachers cannot help but be an inspiration. When we think of the valuable time and energy these men and women are putting forth that we may advance ourselves, we cannot help but feel our great indebtedness to them. These men and women are specialists in their particular branches and have been devoting their time and effort to pre paring us for a useful and prosperous life. We realize how unworthy and unappreciative we must have seemed at times and what a disappointment our attitude must have been. But language seems inadequate to express our real feelings at parting with such true friends. May we not reassure them with the thought that they have buoyed us up and urged us on, and that guided by the lofty principles, which it was their care to instill into our youthful minds, we cannot but some day find anchorage in the haven of success. b RAYMOND (J.

Latin ;iii«l Fr ol) CORENNK ASllLUNB Wakefield High SrtiooJ Librarian and Ub?rk JFarultji iHnuu' of 1U23 First in our faculty parade comes the dignity, Lula Mao Blair, alias Mrs. Winterfield, The fortunate town of Fair mount, Ind. was her birthplace. From the very start she was meant to be a teacher of English. She read Shakespeare at two years of age. At four she was browsed in her father’s vast library (he is a clergyman of no mean repute) and read Dante’s ••Inferno” with much shuddering and fear, until she resolved to be virtuous the rest of her life, which they say, she is to this day, Her fear of the proverbial wickedness of big cities has led her to pastoral ways, selecting the straight and simple life. Her schooling at Earlham and Purdue would show this, After graduation, too, she selected srpajl, rural towns, put of temptation’s way, and that Is why our own school can proudly call her one of our own. Her sunny disposition and witticisms have gained her many friends (some of whom aro marriageable, they say) but she is cautious, as we said be-, fore, so the man who would win her must be wi e, and above all things,—a virtuous Yankee. From the rockbound coast of the Canadian 9t. Lawrence carne Count Gordon Carlin to us, an Irishman from French community, who has had ‘un trea varle carrtere’ from life in a suave boarding school to swimming hopelessly In the North Sea, Loss of mother, life on western prairies, salesman, .oldier for the Dominion, and a sweet little lady from Iron-, wood .all forms a design in the kaleidoscope of his life. W«j shall always remember him for his humor, kindliness, his !,de. clensions” and “irregulars”, his faithful friendship, But to come back to his fascinating life story ask him about it sometime. The best stories are not found on library . helves, Maude Trebilcock is the third in our line, hailing from Ishpeming, from whence comes also our jovial RosswcH- Like Miss Blair, who favored English literature, in her youth, so too Maude favored her own mathematics, Her own child, hood was geometrical; when she learned to walk, at the ago of two, she declared herself to be perpendicular to a plane, and that she hoped never to be tangential to the earth’s surface and. knowing that a straight line Is the shortest dis tance between two points she lost no time in her education to reach success. From Marquette she travelled straight to Ann Arbor. Rumor says that year after next she will be interested in a solid, with obtuse angles above, and a quadrilateral at tho front, which she will open,—for after all, when cue is mar. ried -the door to a bungalow is the sweetest thing in the world, And harken, the strains of symphonic tones which rum. ble from out our Steinway, and we know that Drobnik is at the keys, “He can put a lot of feeling into ‘On Wakefield High’”, we’ve often heard tell. But of his past—Horace was born in Milwaukee, the home of another genius, picked cherries in Door county, Wis., for Algoma is his home now, studied den. tiatry at Marquette University, and learned- how to typewrite at Whitewater Normal. Evidently he preferred the drilling in the class room to drilling in the oral chambers of a suffer, ing creature for he has decided to teach in W. H ,S. Besides all this, he has worked with the great L’HevJnne, No wonder he plays the piano so masterfully, Elolse Shaw has been with us but a short time, and yet how well we have learned to know her—and liked it too. Eloise is ‘Chicago’ through and through. She was born there, reared there, got her M. A- from the University of Chicago, will mix sodas there, and always hope to live there. Even her predecessor went to Chi and they say she will be going there too, for the same purpose. How fortunate that her fath-er is a lawyer! L. A. Cluley comes swinging next in line hailing from Rose, bush, Mich., though he has travelled much (even to marching to Coblenz with the American forces) he always comes back to Wakefield. As a coach he ranks with the best in the U. P. The only thing we can say against him is that he won that first Bessemer basketball game from a bunch of invalids!?). Do you remember the most beautiful of the Persian dan. cers in the Glorious Girl ? Miss Tamblingson does so many things well, but best of all cooking, and Wava is not the least bit swell-headed either, She sews, cooks, skates, swims, speaks and dances to perfection, withal a marvelous teacher. She lives in Fort Atkinson; was educated at the University of Wisconsin and studied at Columbia. How fortunate that she will be with us for another year. My pen is almost running dry, and yet there are so many in the line, Here is Harrie Chapel, creator of Sparke”, and electrical wizard, who yearns that W. H. S. may have a radio next year. You’ll find his picture in this issue with Mrs, Chapel and their splendid family, And next Miss Sandstrom, who makes us wash the dishes and brush the crumbs away, queen of delectable viands and aspirant to the name of Olson. And next there is Rosswell Miners, who works with the noblest of metals, Fe, and teaches boys how to be useful with their hands, be ides eating candy. He loves his flivver, basketball and Bessemer. (Ana why Bes.emer?) And next comes Miss Anna Brand, who teaches the music of the Immortals and sings herself a strain that is heavenly, The Persian garden showed us all of her charms, n’est-ce-pas. Rose de Persian? Whenever we see a song book held up high. we shall think of Miss Brand. And next Messrs, Blair and Hackett, drafters and workers-We shall never forget their beautiful exhibit of handicrafts in the Community gymnasium. Speaking of that exhibit and art in general, we cannot help but toast Rebecca Ludeman, who is swinging along near the end of the line with pastel and chro-mos, smiling her best, and unconsciously telling us about Har. lap, and many things 1 can’t tell here. And lastly, he insisted on being at the end, comes Raymond G. Weihe. esteemed teacher and principal. Like Mr, Carlin’s, his life is full of rich experiences. He was born in Mil waukee, lived in the East and Central West, the victim of fate and circumstance. He attended school in four cities, and after having lived as a salesman, actor, correspondent and teacher in a private school, was commissioned in the psychology ser. vice of the U.S.A., crossed the ocean three times, and returned to complete his university course at Madison. With such a varied career, he did not find happiness until he came to Wakefield, Do you wonder why he says “Wakefield is the happiest little city I ever hope to see,” rAUL KLtitylOLA fine ! r« Kiflt |it— Commercial Course National |l |)or Society Tjio o)i his i)ii kii)l nrrasneil brow, Nature has written —Gentelman' rn i ;}h| y m n| b ii-- rriv ! e soeretnry jriJA KOMOVC Class Secretary—General Course National H°?M r Society ♦•Gentle in manner, hut resolute in deed Publish Glee fluh. “Yanki Son'1 Ihobubie vocnihm—T uhin MAHY P1SLMKT c lass Treasurer—General Course Am) she herself « ft seeks sweet solitude Probable ywwriwn—Teiu-hiiiR ANNA OLSON Vnb (jietoriup—General Course National Honor Society Full of fun. mischief aiul ambition basketball. l|)-’2,’i; bullish Club; Hcnh r Play. 19 80 Secretary. 21 Trobalre vocalion—Nursing • MELVIN' MELLSTHOM I Tratio Con me f We cannot nil of iim do everything f Probable vocation—Electrical engineer i • f f 0 f Auer: cAun Commercial Course “Happy patience is n plant that gnnvs not in nil gardens9 English Club J r )ha hie vocation—Stenographer Finn A LEriSTO Commercial Course •She was Just the quiet kind whose nature never varies Treasurer, '19; English Club rroha Me voca turn—Stenographer RrsSEE EDDY General Course “He’s mi all-around good fellow Debating, '22; Football, ’21-’22; Declamation, '21; Baseball, '21; Ski Team. ’21 1 robable voca lion— ’ v 11 engineer M-l-mWM- ft- - ONI KAAES General Course National Honor Society ••I stand for work and a square deal Ski Team, '22 Football. 22. ’23 Probable vocation—Civil Engineer AT.FIE WIXDBKRO Salutatorian—General Course National Honor Society ••Thought alone I eternal ’ Glee Club.

The other classes watched us eagerly for the first few months and took particular notice of all that we did. They evidently considered us very verdant freshmen, Without a doubt the hue of green was plainly visible in our faces and in our actions. But this emerald hue must have with us been a sign of life for we were considered the liveliest Freshman class that ever entered the high school, lr. Paul Brown was our class advisor and he entertained us at a number of dancing parties and also hiking parties. Among the parties we remember especially our initiation. The Juniors and Seniors were there and they sang “We’re Here Because We’re Here. Mr. Mitchell, our principal, asked them to leave but they insisted upon staying. Our party was disturbed for awhile but after they had left, the fun and merriment went on as before. Our class clung together quite strongly during our Freshman year. During our Sophomore year those who were not equal to high school life left us by the wayside. We were not as active either, but still they considered us “live wires.” We made a fair showing in athletics, there being three sophomore girls on the girls’ basketball team and one sophomore boy on the boys’ basketball team. Two years went swiftly by and it was then that we realized that we were here to work. An English club was organized at the beginning of the year and any student with an av erage of 85 per cent or more was a member. The club met every two weeks and a program was planned for each meeting. The Junior Prom was given at the close of the first sem- d p $ -I ester was a huge success in spite of the blizzard. At the opening of the Senior year the class elected the following officers: President, Carl Kleimola; vice president, Fannie Mattson; secretary, Julia Komovc, and treasurer, Mary Delmet. The Student Board of Control was organized this year which included the president of each class. These were: Freshman. Eileen Maloney; Sophomore, Ruth Johnson; Junior, Peter Bugni; Senior, Carl Kleimola. The purpose of the Board of Control is to discuss school affairs and to pass rules affecting the students’ social activities. These recommendations were turned over to the Principal. It brought a closer relationship and better understanding between the faculty and students. A monthly paper was also issued called “The Tattler”, which contained news concerning our school, teachers and students and meritorious literary work. The Junior Prom, which was given in our honor by the Junior class was a big success, and it was the first to be given in the new Memorial-Community building. The ballroom was turned into a beautiful spring garden. The color scheme was old rose, olive green and silver. The initiation of the 1923 Freshmen will always be remembered, since it marked the close of “wild” initiations and hazing. During the last week of school, the Seniors with their class advisor, Mr. Weihe, enjoyed a picnic at Lake Gogebic. Our Commencement program and Baccalaureate services were much enhanced by being held in the beautiful Memorial theatre. The speeches were inspiring, the music delightful. As Seniors we were moved to strange and noble sentiments; we had come to the end of one stretch of the road, in full realization that it was a long up-hill climb, yet only too short, ere our entrance into the “University of the World.” o- r p- p p p- p p p pp i ■ p p p p p p p p p p p , rtipltrnj xif thr (Hass of 1033—in 1038 Verona, Mich,, June 21, 1938, Pear FJora; I received your letter and will expect you cn airplane U41 which arrives at Verona, June 30, My husband and I iare very anxious tp see you, and we have been waiting for your viut. We are going to the Veronica Opera House tonight tp hear Mary Helmet sing. (Remember her?) I wish you were already here. I have lots to tell you. With love, Alice “Why Flora- 1 was afraid you would neve come. I thought the piane was wrecked but then I heard it was a half an hour late. Parks, take Miss LePisto’s bags to the blue room.” “Why Alice, you’re looking just as young as ever. Pm so glad to see you, Where’s Mr. Murphy?” “He's playing golf at the Country Club. Come in, I have come refreshments for you. You must be hungry- The world ssems to have been treating you well. I suppose y-ou have made u v of the French Mr. Carlin taught you now that you have been in Paris?” “Oh yes, it came in very handy. By the way, did you know that Henry Mattson is a French teacher?” “Yes. he has been teaching in Verona for several years. You know he married Miss Shaw, one of the teachers in the Wakefield High School, She taught when we were Seniors. Have another sandwich Flora-” “Thi nk you, they are very good. Have you heard anything about Nels Kulvinen?’' Oh, he and Freeman Hasbrook went to California a year gtter we graduated. Didn’t you know that they were comedians? That’s queer. They have acted at the Veronica Opera House ■ everal times. They are both married. They had a double wedding. I had a picture of them somewhere. Oh, here it is. The th’n girl is Nels’ wife an dthe fat one is Freeman’s. Both the girls are in vaudeville.” “Well- Nels and Freeman haven’t changed very much. I bc'ieve 1 have seen this thin girl before. No, I must be mistaken, Imagine Carl Kleimola is the president of the United States, 1 never dreamed that anyone in our class would ever Jiold such a ogsition. ‘‘Ob, here comes the chimney sweep. Parks, Parks, tell H in son to get to work immediately. 1 suppose you know, f lora, that your brother-in-law, Julia’s husband, is a chimney sweep. Yes, but as long as they are satisfied and happy I don’t think she cares. I never thought she would marry Hans Hanson- And hasn’t she grown? Before marriage she taught at Tula, Siy, 1 saw a poster In the airplane, announcing that Bcmpi Ksnninen and Andrew Sokol were going to give a con- •••■ -p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p- p p- p- p -p-p- p ja •■•I cert at the Wakefield Community Building, Wednesday evening. We’ll have to go. I’ll have some more cake please.” “Yes, do have some. Lsmpi plays the piano and Andrew piays the violin. They are married but Lempi uses her maiden name on the announcements. Just think of all the artists in. our class and even a president!” “I saw Julia Komovc in Paris. She married a fine young man. They are living in Paris now. I visited them several times. Say, I read something about a robbery in New York. Is this the same Oni Kaars who used to sit next to me in school who caught this thief?” 'T believe it is. He is the Chief of Police in Ne ’ York. He married a Scotch woman about five years after graduation. There are several in our class who have married. Mrs. Paul Oberg, who used to be Elsie Simonson, was here to see me about a week ago. My, but she is fat. Paul is the Mayor of Thomaston now. Elsie used to keep a boarding house at Thomaston. Have some more ice cream, Flora, I think it is quite good.” “Elsie and Paul married? Well! Well! And what about Russel Eddy, Paul’s chum?” “Russel Eddy? Oh, he’s janitor at the Memorial-Community building at Wakefield. And imagine, Ruth Johnson and Russel are still single!” “Still single? Alfie Windberg used to go with Russell, didn’t she? I heard that they were engaged.” “Yes. Alfie was engaged to Russell, but she broke the engagement. She married a man by the name of Smith I believe. She is a chauffeur in Chicago now. Have you heard anything about Evelyn Ranta or Lillian Hill?” “I saw Evelyn five years ago. She was sent as a missionary to Africa. I have received several letters from her. She likes her work very well. She is still single, although she often speaks of a Harry G. Lillian Hill? She married a minister. Isn’t that queer? I never thought she’d marry a minister but — “Well, you can never tell what a person will do. What do you think of Fanny Mattson not marrying at all?” “Well, that’s rather strange. Wrhat has happened to her? She didn’t join the Old Maid’s club, did she?” “She is a nurse at the Gogebic County Sanitorium. She is still there, I believe.” “And wasn't that a great invention Melvin Mellstrom conceived? I read about it in the paper—glass eyes with which you can see. One of my friends in Paris sent for a pair of them. He had been blind for eighteen years, and now he can see as well as anyone. WTe don’t have to worry about los ing our sight now, do we, Alice?” “That’s one thing I never expected. Isn’t Ole Ojampera in some kind of a league which is against smoking?” “Yes, he is the leader of The Anti-Cigarette League, and they say he is accomplishing a great deal. Wasn’t Michigan the first anti-cigarette state in the Union? And Ole gets all p J the credit, and some day we shall see whole United States an { anti-cigarette nation. What about Ellie Nikula, anyway?” •'Oh Ellie? She’s a barber. Just think of it! She bobbed her own hair soon after graduation, and Ella Luoma is the { first woman representative in Washington, from Michigan, | What in the world has become of Anna Olson? She has writ- j ten you, hasn’t she? “Yes, I hear from her quite often. She lectured through-{ out the country on “How to liaise Poultry”, and finally married the owner of a poultry farm. They have three splendid children. I am going to see her before I go back to Paris,” “Well, don’t talk about going back already. You just j arrived a few hours ago. Well, we had quite a chat. I’ll show you to your room myself. Wait a minute, there’s Pat coming back from the club. He’ll be delighted to see you, ! Flora,’’ ; “To think you ever married a man by the name of Patrick { Murphy!” T i • t : t ..... Athlrtir Swim fur 1923 letic The monthly “Tattler” has had many proud pages of ath-notes to record, during this, its initial year of publication. In football, Wakefield has demonstrated in its second season, remarkable prowess, defeating schools with enrollments much larger than her own. An excellent coach and a fine, team spirit determined its accomplishments. In points, the football season showed 67 points gained for Wakefield High School and 108 points for opposing teams. The Newberry defeat in the last game of the season created a large majority of points won by our opponents over our own showing. In basketball, the Girls’ team deserves first mention and highe-st praise. It has been said by an impartial referee, that no other girls’ team in the Upper Peninsula had as fine a record, In 1922 ten games were easily won, out of the eleven played. The one defeat was with Ashland, which team they defeated very decidedly in 1923 on the home floor. In the season just closed, seven out of eight games were' won, losing to Bergland because of the illness on the part of one player and over-confidence on the part of the others, Wakefield's season’s total is 187, the opponents, 89. The boys' work in basketball was not so brilliant, The most notable victories were with Park Falls and Bessemer, the most notable defeats with Stambaugh and Norway, The season totals were; Wakefield, 233; Opponents, 216. In skiing, Wakefield again demonstrated speed and skill, winning by almost a mile from Ironwood in a twelve mile hoop relay. With another victory next year, the cup for which the schools are striving, will be our property. • '• ••■• • •■'•''•■'• I o3 (Cmumrnrrnmtt Wnk (CaUntimr si; ISarrahutiTalr ?n ir?5 uuii£i}(, Sttttr 1T (Emnnutnitif Shtil mij Invocation .....................Rev.
