Dear Reader :-If you wish to save future Mirage staffs from the night mares that we have been having, please not only do your bit but do your best and contribute something for your school paper. V . The staff wishes to thank all of those who have helped to make this paper what it is. We wish to especially thank Miss Reasoner, our facul- ty advisor, whose suggestions have been invaluable. Perhaps the Mirage this year has been better than others, perhaps worse, but in reading it please remember we have done our best. The Junior chemistry students now feel that they positively know all about chemistry, Chaving completed their first year.J If you wish to know anything concerning Chemistry, just ask them. They know. We watched the boys departing from school to work on the farms with tears in our eyes and fairly bursting with envy. Ah, me, if we girls were given such a golden opportunity old L. H. S. would positively be a boys school for the rest of the year. Never! Never!! Never!!! will the basket-ball girls make another trip to Sugar Grove. Next year we hope to have all day sessions and thus all be together more. We upper classmen miss our association with the freshmen dreadfully. Poor Dears We seldom see them under our present sys- tem. But then twill not always be thus. YOU slackers who haven't done your bit this year in boosting your school paper can partially redeem yourselves by helping next year's Mirage. Some of our brilliant students evidently thought that by acquiring a fine case of measles they would escape exams. Too bad it didn't work. The next time you might try small pox. We take this opportunity of advising the sophomore to. include Chemistry in their schedules next year. CAs they will be Juniors the faculty kindly condescendingj It is such an EASY subject. You NEVER have to hand note books in, you never burn or otherwise maim yourself and in fact next to Caesar we consider it the easiest study in the High School Course.

Sergeant at Arms The history of the Class of '18 briefly told, is as follows. We were received with welcoming embraces as Freshmen fboys especially.J In the second part of our course we realized how really insignificant we were. As Juniors, with the tried and true who had weathered the storm for 2 years, we formed an organization. As a class we took part in all school activities and made a name for ourselves as embodying true school spirit. As mighty and dignified Seniors we are second to no one. Realizing the serious business for which we were preparing, as a unit we have worked with unquenchable zeal to attain our goal. As our patient and learned instructors will testify, when we have a will, we have a way. Coming to the close of our school life, we regret probably that we have not the privilege of again enjoying and living thru the prepara- tory days of life, but as a class, we are proud of our achievements in these halls of learning. In the last year of our school life we had forcibly brought to us the fact that, Life, is but a fleeting cloud. In the death of our class press ident, we were left dumbfounded and in the heartfelt sorrow at his loss, we were bound into closer fellowship by grief as for a lost brother. We managed to struggle through those dark times however, and now we are awakening to our duty to the country. Several members of our class have seen it to be their duty, to offer themselves in upholding the laws of God and the honor of our Country. Good luck, fellows, and may you return. Coming back to our school careers, it may be said that you get out of life what you put into it, and we are glad to say, that as a class, we have always given our best to the task at hand. In telling about our school life, I shall not tire you by recounting our activities, for each his- tory is nearly the same, but if you read the history of our class you must needs look into the future, for there shall we make ourselves felt in the history of the nation. When we approach this parting of the roads it is with a feeling partly of joy, at having reached a long wished for goal, and partly of sadness at the thought, that when we are dismissed for the last time, never again, probably, shall some of us see the faces of our friends, who thru four years of toil and fellowship have been our joy and inspira- tion. At this opportunity, we the Class of '18 wish to bid you, our teach- ers and all friends of Lancaster High School, Adieu. -By Irvine M. Dungan, '18. CLASS PROP!-IECY Time-1940 Place-Enchanted Woods. Characters-Godmother Gail Kerns. Modern Diana-Dorothy Graf. Enter Modern Diana, after a weary chase ffor husband?j Oh! this weary, weary chase! will it never end! VVhy did I ever obey the dictates of my godmother? For twenty long and weary years I have searched diligently for these ever elusive Seniors of 1918. I have trusted her implicitly only at last to be deceived in my old age. My godmother even told me this was an enchanted wood and here I would find my friends. CReclines on a rustic benchl. Oh! I am so tired of this improfitable journey and how I wish, how I wish- Enter Godmother, What do you wish, my child? Oh, my godmother, is it really you and have you truly come at last? H ll oi Yes, I have come and mean to give you any wish for which you ask. Remember! I can only give you ONE. Well, I wish I could look far into the future and see my classmates of that wonderful class of 1918, and the individual work of each. That is all I will ask. You shall have your wish my child. I will touch you with my Magic wand then your wish will be fulfilled. Do not try to touch these persons as they pass. Do not try to speak to them for it will be in vain. They are only visions of the future. I Alright, my godmotherg I will earnestly obey your commands. Look eagerly, my child, for the Magic is at work. Keep your eyes stead-fastly on them as they pass or you will not be able to tell who they are. Oh, I see a man talking and all the people are cheering him but, Cwho is it?J His face looks familiar but surely he isn't one of my class- mates. Yes he is one of your most honorable classmates. It is Irvin Dun- gan who is now President of the United States and all the people hail him as the grandest President who has ever been at the head of their Nation. Glorious, glorius if only the rest have such a brilliant future . Yes and there are two girls standing near him eagerly watching every motion of his face, why it looks as if it were Eva Lehman and Ruth Markwoodg is it really them and what are they doing? Yes it is, you know Eva and Ruth always did like Irvin and he was very fond of them, but he never could decide which one he wanted for his wife. Well the only thing I can see is for Irvin to become a polygamistf' I guess you are correct my child that is the safest plan for him to take. Who is the girl coming down the road leading those two beautiful Shetland ponies? Why, Diana don't you recognize your old classmate Clara Sin- grey? Oh, yes, Clara always was fond of ponies during her High School days. But what is she doing with them now? Oh, my child, she is now owner and superintendent of a large pony ranch from which she is shipping ponies to all the important High Schools in the U. S. Oh, my godmother, I see in the distance a beautiful church. Now I can see the inside of the church, which is crowded with people. Now I hear the strains of the wedding march: Now the minister comes for- ward and that gown covers a figure strangely familiar, I recognize the intelligent face of Walter Sittler. But where is the bridal party? Look Diana for they are coming slowly down the aisle. And the strange part about it is that it is a double wedding. Of all Miracles! Of course I know them! It is none other than Ralph Sexauer and Harold Hoyman leading the blushing, bashful Hoff- man twins to the altar. Yes, my child and here has ended a long tiresome, silly and happy romance. Whose that man coming near dressed in such a peculiar fashion and who is the young lady by his side? Why, Diana dear, that is Willie Wiseman the Billionaire onion king, and his new wife from Jamaciaf' Well, how like Bill, he always did say that none of the girls of our class were good enough for him. Oh yes and how sad to think that even none of the girls in our own United States were good enough for him. What a particular old man he will be. And, Oh godmother, here comes a woman and man dressed in the height of fashion. My what a handsome pair! The woman is hold- ing the man's arm with all her might as though she feared he might escape. Who in the world is it? Why I thought sure you would recognize them. It is Paul Cooney now a famous chemist and his dear little wife Sarah Lavina Short. You remember in their High School Days they never could agree but now they have agreed that they can never disagree and are as charming a pair as ever could be. Who is that sweet faced girl telling stories to that group of chil- dren? Why surely you ought to recognize her. Yes for sure, it is Miriam Snider, but why is she here? O Diana she is telling stories to the little French orphans in order to keep her mind from the Battle front of Europe where Lois is fighting . How like Miriam always loyal and true but why should she worry for she knows his thoughts are always of her. Oh Diana do you see the tiny shop in the distance? Oh, godmother, is my magic spell leaving for I cannot see the tiny shop? Now look my child surely you will be able to see. This shop is ably conducted by your most distinguished classmate Madam Jennie Shumaker. Yes and the sign above reads: 'Dresses Shortened While You Wait! You know, Diana, Mr. and Mrs. Castle have departed from this world and new dancers are needed to take their place. This place has been filled by two of your most dignified classmates. Look do you not recognize them? Oh, godmother, can this be Alice Hunter and Albert Ruff? Alas! So it is for they are conducting a dancing school on Fifth avenue N. Y., and Albert is known everywhere as the man with the slippery feet. Look, look what is the reading on that sign projecting from that large building, well can it really be this: WALTER RUGH Corset Specialist For All Shapes and Sizes Well, you remember, child, Walter always was a sissy and he still clings to girlish fanciesL Now I hear a great deal of clapping and a large crowd of females are standing around a platform. On this platform is a woman making a speech. Who is it? Those cork screw curls look familiar. Still I can- not recognize here. Tell me quick who is she? Dear, it is your old friend Helene Ala Applegate. She is now making tours over the country and speaking on wo- man's rights. One of her most famous speeches is I held my mouth shut and the men clapped, I opened it and nobody spoke. How like Abby of old, always with an open mouth. Do you see that man approaching smoking a corn cob and smiling a bull dog grin? Why my godmother he is the very picture of thf once famous Harry Lauder. True my child this man is the famous Stephen Ruch, who has in every way taken Harry Lauders place. He is noted everywhere as The man who can cause a cranky old grouch to laugh until he almost breaks his reputation. Oh, this certainly is a romantic scene. It is moonlight and sitting in a hammock I see two persons who are getting closer, closest and now they kissed. I hear her softly whisper, Don't be so soft Ed. But I don't know them. Oh, my child, it is your old friend Edwin Jefferson Bolenbaugh and his sweetheart Rosa Sally Beuter. My, my, how like old Ed. He always was so soft in his younger days and although he is now an old bachelor, I see he still is after all the young girls with large incomes, curly hair and short dresses. Look, look Diana, another of your classmates has now been brought to view. Where godmother I can't see anyone ? Away, far away in the distance there a man sits bending over a desk. He is now busy writing an essay which he thinks will make him a wealthy man. The title of the essay is How to get through High School in seven years. Surely you recognize him now. Oh yes of course, it is my honorable friend William Kiefaber. For who else in our class could have written on such a subject. Now, my child, look what is approaching. Oh, what is it? Why what a brilliant light! It surely isn't an au- tomobile light. It is so very bright it hurts my eyes and I cannot tell what it is. Well, my dear, do not look at it if it hurts your eyes, for I will tell you what it is. It is Ruth Kistler's diamond ring. You know her first lover deserted her and she now goes through the world and with the use of this brilliant light is seeking for happiness and another man's love. Well, well, I certainly hope she soon finds what she's looking for. And still they come. My child, look, for it certainly will puzzle you to find out who these two are. Gracious, I can't see anything but a Ford, it seems as if no one is in it. Yes, there is, now look. Well I should say there is someone in there. But who would have thought that these two would be married, its my two old schoolmates Russell Blume and Marie Ruff. My godmother, what is Russell's occu- pation now? V Oh dear, he is still a thriving, bashful farmer. Now I see a man with a gun and I really believe he is hunting rab- bits. Well of all things it is my old friend Vorys McLaughlin. What is his business? Diana, perhaps it will please you to know he has just invented a gun that will hypnotize an animal long enough to allow a person to take good aim. , Well that is exactly like Vorys. He was always good at aiming at things but he never seemed to hit them. Look do you see the small lady dancing? Do you know who she is? I believe, godmother, it is Minnie Ritter but doesn't she do any- thing except dance? No, my child. Minnie is working among the legless Frenchmen She has given up all hopes of having a husband so is patiently devoting all her time to giving hula hulas for the amusement of these wounded soldiers. Oh, godmother, look! I see a large building in the distance, what kind of a store is it and to whom does it belong? Well my child that is a clothing store which belongs to one of your classmates Lester Horn. Can you read the sign in the window? Yes, I believe I can. Is this what it says, See the Living Model in the Next Window. I ' Now, look in the next window, Diana. Wonder of wonders! It is my friend, George Alfred. Well, well his Appollo-like form always did display to advantage the latest fashions of the day. And now I am certainly glad he is at last among the things that give him the most pleasure in life. Now notice, who comes next Diana. She is a girl who has cer- tainly changed during the last few years. ' Yes, of course I know her, poor Bess Baker! I hear her mumbling softly to herself, Oh where are those wandering Phi Sigs tonight? Well, you know, child, she always did have a time keeping hold of her male friends, but it seems she is having a worse time now than she ever did. Now I see a small figure with a paint brush in his hand and a pen behind his ear. He is hurrying to and fro with great eagerness. Alas, I have found my old friend Dick Mattox ! Oh, godmotherl tell me what he has been doing all these years. Dick, your old friend is now a famous cartoonist. He just receiv- ed S300,000 for a very small cartoon and he is working on another for which he will receive 2530,000,000. He is always kept very busy for his work is so remarkable that a single small cartoon moves the people to tears or rejoicing, according to the sentiment of the picture. Now godmother, I see a courtroom and the Judge comes forward with bowed head. His face certainly looks familiar but tell me, quick who is he? Well Diana, he is your old friend, George Courtright, who even after all his experience has never recovered from his bashfulnessf' Now I see him tap on the table and the trial begins. Tell me what kind of a trial is this and who is the tall dark haired girl speaking? Why, Diana, I thought surely you would know her, it is your dear old comrade, Leonore Abele Murphy, who is seeking a divorce from her husband, Robert Murphy, whom she says is not able to support her on his biscuit salary. Oh well, that's just like Lenore of old. She was always getting into something difficult. But do you know, I really believe she will be able to secure a divorce, for you know her bewitching eyes always did help her a great deal. Diana, now behold the most beautiful theatre in America. It is noted for its marble columns and wonderful paintings. This theatre is ably conducted by two of your school mates, read the sign above the en- trance. . G0dm0ther is it so, is this the property of some of my classmates? Well, well, it belongs to Herbert Kneller and Dewey Deeds. True these two fellows were always interested in theatres but who would have thought, they would some day own such a wonderful place. Again, Diana notice the billboard before you turn away. Marvelous, marvelous is this what I see-Mary Elizabeth Thomas the greatest vampire of the day in her masterpiece, 'In Water Up To Your Knees! Well, godmother, who would have thought that my pious friend Mary Liz would do such a thing, yet its hard I guess to tell how they will turn out. Behold now another of your classmates. Can you see the tall wil- lowy figure carrying a basket of eggs on her arm? Yes, godmother I see her and recognize my dear old friend Mary Catherine Cullumber. But what is her profession? Dear, she is the most noted chicken specialist in the world and is writing articles for all the important magazines on the subjects The care of chickens and What it really means to be a Chicken Queen. Now I see a small shop in the distance and on the electric sign I see Kathyrn Gerhard and Marceilla Drumm fRemovers of homeliness.J What do they do godmother I don't quite understand? Look at the small printing my child on the window and you will soon find out. Oh my, they certainly must be Wonderful- Faces made more suitable for Humanity while you wait. This surely is a wonderful work they are doing and I hope they are always successful. ' Now, behold Diana that beautiful home in the distance. The one built on the hill overlooking the Hocking River. Do you see it? Well, it is the home of one of your classmates, draw near and discover who it is. Oh godmother, I see Oramay Ballinger Ewing sitting before a cheery fireplace, her husband Jack and their happy, cheerful, chubby charming little Jacks and Jills. What a happy family. Yes, Diana, it surely is a very interesting and happy family. Away off in the distance I see a man with a camera rushing wild- ly to and fro taking pictures. Who is it, godmother? Well child, of course he is Neil Thompson who has just invented a camera that is very convenient, for in two minutes after the picture has been taken it is developed and finished. You know, I always thought Neil had a noble mind and now I know it for sure. Now, behold this young lady approaching carrying a huge loaf of bread and a can of pickles. She is one of your familiar classmates. Do you recognize her? Well, how natural, it my old pal Bernice Repass. But what is she doing with those things? Diana, your friend Bernice is now Domestic Science teacher at Sugar Grove. Her bread is noted everywhere for its stick-illity and she makes the best pickles in Ohio. She surely is some cook. Look, godmother, I see a man approaching and on each side of him I see a Red Cross Nurse. Who in the world are they? VVell, child, it is Wright Amerine, now a noted physician, who is practicing in Europe and his two assistants Helen Schneider and Faye Wharton, who because of the great work they are doing are called: 'The Two Sunshine Janes From America'. Again I see a large building and over the gate I see the following words: 'Sanitarium for the Feeble Minded! Godmother , tell me who is at the head of this Institution? Diana, this Sanitarium is ably conducted by Dr. James Chris- topher Columbus George Washington Marcus DeLayfette Sears and his little black-eyed wife Mary Margaret Nye Sears. Mrs. Sears has just written a book which is of great interest entitled: 'It isn't dandruff that makes you bald, its just lack of hair.' Oh, godmother, over in the yard of the Sanitarium I see an old friend of mine Senorita Donald Clump. Why is he here, has his mind become feeble in his old age? No, my child, his mind is not feeble, but he is here recovering from a nervous breakdown after he had written a very famous song: entitled: It's a Long Way To Lancaster After' You've Stayed at Pleas- antville All Night! Now look, godmother, I see a very corpulent young lady approach- ing, weeping as if her heart would break. In her hand she holds a piece of paper on which is written: 'Why Olive oil made me fatl' Who is she, tell me quick? Well, Diana, it is Betty Click who has tried all these years to find something to reduce her flesh and catch a husband. But now she truly believes the old adage which says: 'No one loves a fat man or a fat woman! Oh wretched fate! Oh, I now behold the most beautiful office I have ever seen. Yes of course I recognize the name on the door, 'Earl A. Shenker.' At a desk I see a girl seated before a typewriter and alas I immediately recog- nize my friend Mildred Reef. Oh, godmother please tell me what these two are doing now. Well, Diana, your old friend Earl is now the richest oil man in the world. Mildred is now one of the most renowned typists of the day writing 175 words a minute. She is sought by all the important busi- ness houses of America but she is so well satisfied with her salary 63400.00 a weekj that she will not leave her position. Well, I don't blame her, do you? Oh, hurry, Diana, look at this automobile which is approaching. See it stops and a man, a woman and two charming children alight. Do you know them? Oh, of course, I know them it is Ruth Thomas Hartman, her hus- band Leo, a thriving farmer of Baltimore and their two children. But what do you suppose they are going to do with that basket Ruth has on her arm ? Oh, child, they have come here on a picnic. Well, well how like they were in the days of yoreg still going through life having a picnic. Turn and behold, my child, one of the greatest actors of the day. Oh godmother is this my old friend J. Edward White, a great ac- tor, pray tell me his latest success. Diana, he is now playing the part of Una in the Faerie Queen . He is indeed as great as the once famous Julian E1tinge. Yes, godmother, I surely can imagine Ed would be good in such a part with his long, slender finger nails, his feet enclosed in number three shoes, his whole body moving and swaying like the waves of the ocean. You are right, child, for no female creature is able to portray this as well as Edward. Oh, I see in the distance two girls walking arm in arm and I truly recognize my two friends Edith Robinson and Blanche Ricketts. Do they not work, what are they doing? These girls Diana, do not have to work, for they have made a for- tune by inventing a very useful article which all old maids and young girls were eager to secure. It was nothing but a 'Husband Catcher', which they sold forthe small sum of twenty-five cents. Now, look godmother, I see a beautiful apple tree and sitting be- neath it, I see an old feeble man. Pray tell me who this can be? Well child, it is one of your classmates, John Silbaugh by name. He is waiting patiently for fortune to smile on him. How like the John of my school days. Always waiting for the chance to get through this world without working. Look! look! Diana do you see that girl in the distance standing be- side that Aeroplane? Yes, I see her godmother but I do not know who she is.. Tell me who can she be? Well child, that is Mary Mondhank, now one of the most renown- ed aviators of the day. Say godmother I believe Mary's success is due to her experience on the farm. You know Mary used to drive the cows and ever since that time she's beensuccessful in driving things. Diana, do you see that drug store in the distance? Now closely notice the two figures standing before it. Oh, godmother, I know who they are for who could forget them? The girl is Ruth Harris talking to Clark Marsdon. Oh I hear her talk- ing and this is what she says, Come home, come home with me now. But he doesn't seem to move, please tell me what is she doing now? Well, my child, Ruth is now a famous teacher in the Hamburg Schools. Her friend Clark says he can never marry a Hamburg school teacher because he wants an heiress for his wife. But still she pleads with him hoping he will heed her call. Oh, godmother, now I hear strange sounds in the distance, it sounds like a Jazz band. I see two figures on a street corner, a man and a woman. The woman is playing a grind organ, and the man is accom- panying her on a bag pipe. Who in the world are they? Why Diana, I am surprised that you do not know them. It is Edith Courtright Stuckey and her husband J. Russell. Russell is so in- fatuated with his wife that he dares not leave her for a moment for he firmly believes: United we stand, Divided we fall. Oh, I see a large school building and on the building it reads Ball Institution. Can this be my friend Jessie Ball and pray tell me what is she doing? Jessie, my child, is now teacher and owner of this negro institu- tion and many wonderful persons have come from her school. Oh, godmother, I surely hope that Jessie will be 'successful in whatsoever she attempts. Look, Diana, do you see the confectionery store in the distance? Please read the name above the door. Oh! of course I know these two. The store is conducted by Lucile Hoffman and Vaneta Snider. Well, how are they doing in their business? These two girls are very successful in their work. They own the store formerly conducted by 'Hamilton Milk Co.' Their ice cream and whipped cream costs so little that even the poorest can buy. Peace be to their ashes! Oh, look, I see a very strong looking man running around with 1 number of boys at his heels. Well of all things, its my old friend Charle. Veidt. What in the world is he doing? My child, Charles is now coach at Yale. He has developed some of the best football players in the country. He has never smelled Cdr feetb defeat and is nobly doing his part in developing more fellows like the famous Chic Harley. Oh, godmother, I now see a small girl standing behind a peanut stand. Well, of all things, who would have thought it, it is my old friend Genevieve Hinef' I Yes, you are right my child, this is Genevieve who is conducting a peanut stand near Bremen. She is known everywhere as the little Miss with the 81,000 smile. She has been very successful, due to her size and her disposition. Oh now godmother, I see an old friend of mine Pauline Adelaide Weis. Pray what is she doing? Well Diana, Pauline has just finished a five years' course on When to give Zeros to Pupils. And has been employed as Senior Eng- lish teacher in L. H. S. ' Oh, my, I guess she must be taking the famous Miss Reasoner's place. How I do pity those next seniors. Diana look, see that girl sitting in that boat away out on the sea? Oh, yes, I know her. It's Ruth Wolfe, but what is she doing out there? y She is patiently waiting for her lover and sweetheart, Ralph Bran- um to return from France. Oh, how like Ruth, she always was a sweet, patient little thing. Look again and behold another girl of your school years, who is now a famous milliner and is making hats for all the Queens of Europe and all the chief ladies of the United States. The price she charges is considered very reasonable, her smallest price is S150 for the very smallest hat. Oh, of course, I know her. It is my old school friend Gladys Peifferf' Now Diana I have told you and shown you of all your classmates but three and now behold what will flash before your eyes. Oh my godmother I see in the distance The Star Spangled Ban- ner and standing on a platform beneath it, I see three men: the first is Donald Hunter, the second is Paul Regan and the third is George Kel- ler. Pray tell me what are they doing here? Well Diana, Donald Hunter is now Rear-Admiral of the Navy, Paul Regan is Major-General of the Land Forces, and George Keller is a Secretary of Navy in Pres. 'Dungan's Cabinet. Here are three of your classmates who by their bravery, by their honor, by their service in the land of the stars and stripes have won for themselves-glory and praise. H Oh, godmother, what rewards come to the brave and honorable. Diana I have given you your one wish. All I would say is go live and be happy. Be proud that you were a member of such a wonderful class. Thank you godmother for giving me my one wish. Then I want to say I will ever honor and praise the class of '18 indeed the most wonderful class that has ever gone forth from old L. H. S. !! Look again Diana and after I have touched you with my magic wand the magic spell will leave you and again you will be just where you were many hours before! Goodbye, godmother and thanks for the wonderful vision of the future.

Awake! arise! indifferent one, A Forget your stupid pampered self! GIVE till your heart THROBS and your soul Revolts at hoarding sordid pelf! Awake! Arise! O, hear the cry Of valiant, bleeding, shell-torn France, Bind up the Belgians orphan's wounds Beat down the hellish Prussian lance. Awake! arise! be loyal, brave! Thank God that he has prospered you, That you have power to aid and save, To prove yourself both strong and true. Arise! help crush the Junker fiend That robs, and kills, and maims, and hates, Give! for the FREEDOM OF THE WORLD! Give! for your own UNITED STATES! POEMS FELIS Acat sedebat on our fence, As laeta as could beg Her vox surgebat to the skies', Canebat merrily. My clamor was of no avail, Tho' clare did I cry. Conspexit me with wild reproof, And winked her alter eye. Quite vainly ieci boots, alamp, Some bottles and a book, Ergo, I seized my pistol, et My aim cum cura took. I had six shots, dixi, Ye gods, May I that felis kill. Quamquam I took six of her lives The other three sang still. The felis sang with major vim, Though man's aim was true, Conatus sum, putare quid In tonitru I'd do. A scheme advenit in my head Scivi, 'twould make her wince, I sang!

By Marcus Downe I speak not to disprove what Flood hath spoke, 1 uiicked the Pail April 18, 1918, But I am here to. speak what I do know . 0 . . . . , Once my book did J. Flood O. K.,-not without causeg Friends, Seniors, and Physic-labers, lend me your Queries, . . . . . What cause withholds him, then, to O. K. it now? I come to borrow them not to swipe them. . . . . . . O judgment, thou art fled to f161'ld1Sh scribes, The good that Queries do lives after themg . . . . . . , - . And teachers who have lost their reason !-Bear with meg The evil is oft interred in J. W. s gradebook, . . . . My heart hes ln the pages of that book, So let it be with me. The honorable Flood . . And I must pause t1ll it come back to me. Hath told us we were crooked If it were so, it was a grievous faulty And grievously hath our grade-cards answer'd it. Here, under leave of Flood and the rest- ForFlood is an honorable teacherg So are they all, all honorable teachers,- Come I to speak my Lab. Book's funeral. It was my friend, faithful and just to me: But Flood said it was copiedg ' And Flood is an honorable man. I have borrowed many books, Whose queries did it's empty pages fill: Did this in Me seem crooked? i When other's grades were cut, were mine Then would I weepg Crooks should be made of sterner stuffy Yet Flood says I am crookedg And John William is an honorable man. You have seen that in the Lab. I thrice presented him with my book, Which he did thrice return unO. K.'d: was this then crooked? Yet Flood said it was wrong, all wrongg too: 44 I'm just as mad as I can be An angry farmer said Those early strawberries of mine Desire a folding bed. And my potatoes have declined To ripen underground Unless to keep dust from their eyes. Smoked goggles I have found. The cabbage heads among themselves Indulge in secret chats But I have got their number now They vow they'll have straw hats. Such foolishness I cannot stand And now just as I feared Each single stalk of wheat demands A barber for its beard. But now the very limit's reached I learn with a stiffled groan Each ear of corn insists upon A private telephone. --Eddie Wilson We carried pie to Dean Hickson's house And scattered the floor with crumbs, And marked the leaves of his choicest books With the prints of our greasy thumbs. We piled his dishes high and thick With a lot of angel food cake While we ate the buttered toast and rolls, Which Dean's dear Bess did make. We hung around a statues neck Our apple-parings for sport And everyone laughed when a clumsy lout Spilled his tea on the piano-forte. Next day our Dean got down on his knees With his Bess-but not to pray O' no-'twas to scrape the grease and dirt From the carpet and stairs away. - Eddie Wilson. Books for the soldiers Is the latest urgent plea, When you have read your book Then send it o'er the sea. During Sammy's leisure moments, After he has fought hard, too. What pleasant recollections He will surely have of you. Send a magazine or book of fiction And leave the rest to him, With your thoughtful co-operation It will put him in fighting trim. The girls of Lancaster Are not so very pretty, But still it doesn't bother them, One tiny 'ittle bittie. EEMEEMEE 4 1 I Ji MX ' ' HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '19 In September 1917 the Junior Class set sail on their yearly voyage in the good ship L. H. S. fFrance being its destinationh with Russell Stukey as Captain, Mary Dickson first Mate, Gardner Hodgson as our purser while Olive Young took care of the log book. The weather was somewhat rough when we started but after a short time it became bet- ter and we were soon going well. We arrived in France after two weeks of sailing and in another week we met our first tests and it was all we could do to weather them. Soon, however, our training was over and we, sixty-five strong, went into the second line trenches while the Seniors held the first line. You may hear some people say that there isn't much doing in the sec- ond line trenches but take it from the Juniors, they don't know what they are talking about. We didn't sit around and look wise, but were up on the firing step every minute of the time. For example we held numerous consultations of war, at which we got our division well or- ganized and working together. Also we held several messes which kept up our courage and put us back in the trenches with more pep -and a full stomach. Then came the crowning event of all-the Junior play. Why the people of France said that this was the best play they had ever witnessed not excepting the attempt of the Seniors. Sometimes our interest would commence to lag, when zip , would come a bomb ftestj and wake us up. Finally the word was passed around that we were going over the top about the middle of May. Well, true to the report we went over the top at the reported time. However we stopped at the first line trenches while the Seniors went ahead to battle with the foe. Sad to say, a few of them were wounded and among these were men of such calibre as Charles Veidt.- Now this Veidt boy, whom they say used to live to-Morrow is young and innocent and didn't intend to stay behind at all. Still they all look alike to us and we take things as they come. We might say here that we welcome him to our trench and will assign him positions of honor, perhaps as boss of the settin' down squad. We will have to lay off fighting through the summer because we have 'run out of ammunition but we will be back on the job next year. '- We respectfully bequeath the second line trenches to the Sopho- mores and any such material as failed to go over the top with us, they may also have. We also wish to utter a few words of consolation to the Freshmen such as: don't be discouraged you will be as great as we are some day-Rome wasn't built in a day-etc. We earnestly hope that they will soon graduate from the training camps and enter active ser- vice. The Junior class expects to start strong 'next year and finish stronger and, after a hard battle, capture the Kaiser. Edwin W. Wilson, '19. W. mf n THE SOPHOMORES This energetic class organized shortly after the opening of school. The following officers were elected: President ........................................................ - ......... ........ C harles Rauch Vice President ........... ................ F lorence Acton Secretary ........................ ........... M ary Oberdorfer Sergeant-at-Arms ........ .............. J ohn Nolder Class Flower ................ ............... - ..... R ed Rose Colors ........................................................................................................................... Red and White Althought the class meetings might have been more numerous the ones that were held were full of pep and enthusiasm. At Christmas, boxes were sent by the class to the two Sophomores in U. S. A. serviceg Kennith Eifert with Company L, Somewhere in France, and Maurice Boley with Company D, in Montgomery, Alabama. Since that time another member of the class, Harold Moody, has joined the Navy. This class is well represented in athletics, Mary Kerns being re- elected captain of the Girls' Basket Ball team for this coming year. Many Sophomores belong to the Literary Society among Whom is the Vice President, Mary Kerns. , The Sophomore class has shown its patriotism in buying thrift stamps and by sending its boys to the farms to help Uncle Sam solve the great food problem at the present time. Several members have had to withdraw from school for the latter part of this year due to ill health but we hope they may be with us in our Junior year.-Mary Gray. 49 Y, . N W F A A FRESHIE'S FIRST DAY Dear Cussin: I am now a Freshman at Lancaster Hih school but I am in an aw- full state of mind. I started to school Munday morning. When I got their, their was a lot of other Freshies weighting outside of the school and some juners and some seeners. They all wore pointed shoes and were awfull big. After the rest of the j uners and the seeners come they all formed in too lines down the stret and thout they was going to march In the school but they didn't. It was an awful fealing too see your friends being anitiated and too no that you will soon go through the same ordeel. Pretty soon a big seener come over and grabbed me by the sholder. He said Well Sunny what's your name! I said Freddy. He said well Freddy, Are you ready! I would have said no but I was afrade and said yes and he said come along then. He took me to the begening of the line and when my back was terned he kicked me with all his mite. Everithing went so quick after that I don't no what happened. All I no is that they kep kicking me untill I was clear to the end of the line. I was awfull sore and beleeve I frackshured my spinel colem. Just then a bell rung and they said it was the singnel and that it ment we should go in the school. And we did and went in a big room which I found out later was called chappell. Their was a man on the stage who some boy said was the principle and who told us wear to go. Then we all went out but I fourgot and had to go to the offis. Finaly I got to my room, and sat down. The teacher was awfull mean looking an she wore glasses. She called my name but I was to scairt to anser, There was a girl next too me and she was crying and it was terible. The singnel ' rung after a while and we had to go too other rooms. I got lost 3 times and had too go too the offis eachtime. The principle said it was geting too be a habit of me but I don't no what he ment. Finaly school was over and I run all the way home so they would not ketch me and anitiate me again. The sofmores are the ones who started their last year but they thinks we are there infeeriers. They are awfull proud but the juners are supeerier too them but the seeners are the biggest of all. I think they own the hih school or run it enyway. It' is terrible up their but maybee I will get used to it. Maybee I wont.go back to the hih school tomurrow because the anitiashun made me sick. Hoping you are the same. Yours truly, . FREddie . if f .5-QXRXX ci o Muzi?

The Auditorium was filled and a large audience enjoyed the performance. The scenery for the play was exceptionally attractive but the effect suffered somewhat from the smallness of the stage which we hope will be remedied when a new stage is constructed in the near future.

Clements suggested a Patriotic Ministrel for the benefit of the Athletic Association, which at once found favor with the student body. Because of the decided success this year it will become an an- nual production by this Organization. The first part of the program was composed of musical selections by pupils of the High School and several songs by the Girl's Glee Club. This treat was greatly apprec- iated by the large audience and anyone who missed it lost an opportun- ity to hear something worth while. The second part of theentertainment was a minstrel, given by High School boys under the direction of Misses Mabel Curtiss and Lacie Perfect with Harold Phillips as Stage-manager. All the songs and jokes were well given, especially the song by Bob Throckmorton and the mon- ologue by Steve Ruch, while Harold Phillips as end-man made things lively. Everyone certainly enjoyed the whole program and will look forward to it's coming again next year. The Patriotic Musical and Min- strel has certainly won its name and fame in our dramatic department. WHAT BECAME OF PARKER On April 19, the second Senior Play What Became of Parker was presented in a very successful manner. The play was coached by Miss'Loos, who deserves much credit for her valuable services in the play as well as in His Martial Authority. The cast included: Misses Betty Click, Ruth Wolfe, Helen Apple- gate, Genevieve Hines, Messers. Edward White, George Alfred, Walter Sittler, Harold Hoyman, Stephen Ruch, John Silbaugh, Earl Shenker and Edwin Bolenbaugh. The third Senior play will close the dramatic season at L. H. S. This will be presented May 29th, Class Night, and we know will form a fitting close for the year. Miss Ethel Reasoner will be the coach and that speaks for itself. Since Miss Reasoner has been with us she has coached, Rooms for Rent, That Letter-Which? , A Rival by Re- quest , Mrs, Briggs of the Poultry Yard, and Professor Pepp . Those who have seen these plays know that any and all of them speak for themselves and their coach. X gwxxunuulu -P's- X - S.-A 5 xx - ,ywpw Q A N ' Y I r ' T . 1 4WWILlMmN V X Lv VW, I Y 9 , - - X.

Coach McClure called the first practice as soon as possible, and nearly 30 men responded to the call. This crew of fellows, was for the most part green not having had any previous experience. However the coach dug in , giving the squad rolling and tackling practice, knocking off the rough spots. Three days after the first call, we played the heavy Ashville team, and the lack of experience and practice was magnified by the score 19-0. In this game, only three of last years letter men were back, Capt. Nourse, Moody, and Dungan. A practice game was secured with the boys of Co. D, and as a re- sult, Capt. Nourse received a broken ankle, which laid him up for the remainder of the season. The last Saturday in September was given to East High of Colum- bus, and the present champions of the state took the long end of the score 69-0. Although the score was very large, the fellows on the team put up a very scrappy fight and sheer weight overwhelmed them. Grov- es, a freshman, made a fine showing in this game, but Silbaugh and Robinson were put out for the season, this leaving another large gap. L. H. S. next met defeat three times, at the hands of South High, Zanesville and Aquinas. Our first win of the season came when we played Bremen on our own field. We took the long end of a 26-19 score but the following week, Circleville came over and gave us a drubbing by the tune of 39-0. Frank worked up an all-star team as a practice game and the coach tried some new plays. They worked very successfully the game being our way every minute of play. ' Our best and final game was played at Canal Winchester on Turkey Day , and the team certainly did earn its Turkey dinner. Every man, realizing that it was the last game, ,played his hardest and took Winchester into camp by the tune of 13-7 . In the middle of the season, Kiefaber was honored by being elect- ed captain, and Kief certainly filled his position, always there and ready for more.

H. S. On Feb. 1st we played the first game of the season away from home, at Canal Winchester. Both teams started in determined to win and when the first half was over the score stood 2-1 in our favor. On account of the unnecessary roughness, a change was made in referees and the game was cleaner and faster during the second half. In this game the playing of the entire team was very good but no one player starred. The close of the game brought victory for our team, altho the score was not high showed that if our team couldn't score they were not going to allow the opposing team to score. C. W. H. S.-1 L. H.

The game at Crooksville which was played on the evening of Feb. 2, was one of the fastest games of the season. The end of the first half found Crooksville in the lead, altho our team had tried very hard to keep them from scoring. At the beginning of the last half, our team really started to play and as a result we were victorious over our op- ponents. The work of Hummel and Shinn was very good during the last half as was also the pass work of the centers. The score and lineup are as follows: C. H. S.-8 L. H. S.-15 C.

Although they did turn in a victory, they certainly did have to do some real work. When Hancock played at Lancaster, she did not make such a good showingg but a lot of things can be accom- plished in three weeks, for they had developed a hundred per cent. both in floor work andin shooting. They had made a change of lineup, putt- ing a little, shifty man on forward and the change seemed to work won- ders with them. Hancock secured an early start on L. H. S., scoring eight points before you could say Jack Rabbit , but Lancaster soon woke up and evened the score at the middle whistle, it being 13 all. In the second half, Lancaster opened up and displayed more team work, with the result that Athens never had a look in. The game was played on the University floor and since it is very large, many long passes were used. Lineup as follows: . John Hancock, 16. L. H. S., 28.

LANCASTER Westerville again proved to be a big snag in Lancaster's winning for this was the second defeat administered by them. A I. Collier and Nicholson proved to be stumbling blocks, as they are fast and sure shots3 as a result are the big scorers. Lancaster did not appear to have very much ginger and this may be explained by calling it lack of pep, the mid-season slump , exper- ienced by all teams. Another handicap to Lancaster was the floor. Although played on Otterbein Universitie's gym., a better floor could have been insured at Crawfis. On three sides of the floor were steam radiators, which were not only hard but hot, and the baskets seemed to be ready to fly off the supports. These things of course, went against the grain of Lancaster. Lineup as follows: Westerville, 26. Lancaster, ll. Nicholson ..................... .......,... L . F ........... ......................

S. girls were defeated at Groveport in one of the closest games of the season. The teams were tied three times during the game and also when the referee called time. In the over-time play, the Grove- port referee called two fouls on Lancaster and the opposing team shot both of them, thus making themselves victorious by two points. Our girls played very well considering the numerous draw-backs with which they had to contend. c. H. s., is. L. H. s., 16. Van Gundy ................................... ..... ........ R .

This game was by far the best game of the season, and was attended by a record crowd. Altho it was called a basket-ball game, it resembled a wrestling match, and the greatest wrestler of the evening was Gabe Kilbarger. He by far surpassed all others in this time-honored art. The first half ended 10-9 in favor of the H. S. boys and they went back into the second half with a do or die look. They started off with a rush and scored 6 points before the Alumni realized it. How- ever they soon came back, tying the score, and the result of the game was always in doubt until the final whistle blew. The game ended 29-27 in favor of L. H. S. Lineup as follows: L. H. S., 29.

H The game with Crooksville at Lancaster ended victoriously for the girls of the purple and gold. Crooksville played a good steady game, but we were able to out-play them and win by a larger score than the previous game. The work of the guards and centers was especially good as they were able to keep the ball at Lancaster's end of the floor. C. H. S., 2. L. H. S., 12. Cooke ............ .......... R .

The game was fast and our girls played very well, but they were not able to defeat a team made up of some of the best players L. H. S. ever had. The work of the entire team was fine and no individual player really starred. Miss Thomas scored the most for her team. Alumnae, 12. L. H..S., 10 Taylor, Burnett .......... ........... R .

In the game with East Hi on Mar. 1, L.H. S. was victorious by a score of 39 to 5. This is the first year for some time that East has had a girls' team and all the players are new to the game, this and the fact that one of their best players was knocked out accounts for their hand- icap and defeat. Hummel scored the most for our team. E. H. S., 5. L. H. S., 39. J amer ................. .......... R . F ................ ............ H ummel Armstrong ......... ............. L .

The Deaf School has the reputation of being sharks and to back this up, they have won eleven straight games, including the Mt. Vernon Mts. However, it was a very fast game, and exceptionally clean, the O. S. S. D. displaying no foul tactics. The score at half was 28-18. In the second half, the rough game of the night before told on L. H. S. and O. S. S. D. raked in a total of 64 points for the whole game. Despite the large score, Lancaster made an excellent showing, for other teams had been beaten by much larger scores. Lineup: 0.

S. for she suffered a 42-23 defeat at the hands of Newark. Newark came over as rather a dark horse, but she lived fully up to the expectations of all. Her team was very good and displayed excellent teamwork. Lancaster seemed a little off color , and was unable to stem Newark's attack at any time, for her teamwork was absolutely poor, and when it came to shooting-well, the old saying is: he couldn't hit the side of a barn door, let alone a bas- ket, and this held true in this game. However, L. H. S. will be Waiting for Newark's scalp next year. Lineup as follows: Newark, 42. Lancaster, 23. Mayer, ............ I ..... .......... ......... .......... L .

L. H. S. Vs. CANAL W. INDEPENDENTS The girls of the L. H. S. defeated the Winchester Independents in a fast game on the Winchester floor. Several of the girls on the opposing team were knocked out and because they hadn't any subs they delayed the game several times. When the last girl was injured and they were wasting time hunting for some one to take her place the game was call- ed off as there were but 40 seconds to play. The pass work of the cen- ters and guards was good. 3 C. W. IND., 9. L. H. S., 11. Muller ....,,................. ............. R . F ............. .......

DELAWARE TOURNAMENT On March 7, the basket ball squad went to Delaware to take part in the annual race for honors of the state. The squad was entertained at the Chi Phi house and was shown excellent treatment. In the drawing, Xenia was allotted to L. H. S. and on Friday morn- ing, Lancaster's first clash was held. Sad to say, it resulted in a defeat for the old school, thereby putting it out of the running. However in the afternoon, a consolation game was played with London, and here the earlier defeat was atoned for, by winning' 21-5. In both of these games, the team was very much off color and did not display any real form. Lineups as follow: Xenia, 26. L, H, S, 11 Stephan ................... ..- ........... L.

Owing to the violation of Basket Ball rules by some of the players our Principal decided to cancel the remaining games of the season and so with the Winchester game ended our basket ball career for this year. The stand taken was for the good of both the players and the school reputation. We are very certain that such a thing will never again happen as the punishment will be as a remembrance for all future dis- obedience. l Constance Hummel, better known as Cotty , played forward on the team this year. At the close of last year's season she was elected business manager for the coming year. She was not only a good man- ager, but also one of the best players on the team and her absence from the game was keenly felt by all the players. Cotty is a Junior and will be with us next year to help make that team far better than this year's has been. Mary Shinn the fastest floor girl on the team played forward. Whenever the ball went to Lancaster's end of the floor she was sure to be there to get it and pass it to the other forward. It was through her speed that we were able to win so many games this year. Shinny will be a great aid to next year's team. Helen McLain played center and her playing showed that she knew something about the game. She could out jump any of her opponents and with the aid of her other center kept the ball at Lancaster's end of the floor. We are surely glad that Helen is not going to graduate this year as her presence will be a great benefit to the team of the com- ing year. ' Elizabeth Haus is a Freshman and a real basket ball player when it comes to playing side center. She could out run all of her opponents and was always ready to pass the ball down to her end of the floor. Haus has three more years to help make Lancaster's team the best one in Ohio. Katherine Brenner another of our Freshman stars played guard. She was noted for her large size and her ability to throw the ball. She was one of the best guards on the team and her jolly nature won her many friends who wish her success in the coming years of her basket ball career. Ruth Kemmer played guard on the team and she played with all her might, altho not very tall she was so quick that she could out-play any of her opponents. Ruth is also a Freshie and has three more years to display her ability to play basket ball. Minnie Ritter played forward. She was fast and could run away from her guard and make a basket before her opponent knew what was going on. Minnie graduates this spring and will not be there to help us when next year's squad is called out. Jeanette Stephens is a Sophomore and a real good forward. She played with a vim that could not be surpassed. Little Steve was a good shot as she showed whenever she was given the chance to play. She also will be with next year's team. Mary Kerns, '20, Captain 1918, -Captain Elect 1919 Captain Kerns as a Freshman student at the High School made the Girls' Basket Ball team and was awarded her L , She was rewarded for her good work by being elected as Captain of the 1918 team when again she was invaluable to the team. A more diligent and faithful worker was probably never on the local floor and again the letter girls showed their appreciation by electing Mary to the Captaincy of the 1919 team an honor never before shown to a player. Mary will be a Junior next year and will be with us two more years. Her services are inval- uable to the team-Coach. REVIEW OF BGYS' BASKET BALL Probably, the event which helped materially in carrying through a successfulseason this year, was the class series. In these class games, a line was given upon all men and also ma- terial was developed wonderfully. These two factors gave us an early start on the road to victory and enabled us to better the standing of the school as compared with last year's results. The year was started off in a fitting manner by defeating Grove- port 23-17, but the second game was dropped to West High of Colum- bus. John Hancock, of Athens, was defeated twice and also Winchester but the two games with Westerville proved stumbling blocks for Lan- caster. In the defeat of the Alumni, L. H. S. put itself on the localmap as the team was composed of former stars. The end of the season proved disastrous to Lancaster, as three consecutive games were lost although the final one resulted in a win from London. .The members of the first team are: A Captain Bolenbaugh, '18, Forward. Ed proved to be very dangerous. to any opposing player, being always aggressive and an excellent shot. He became a good leader, carrying the team thru' a successful season. The school will suffer a severe loss through Ed's graduation. Wiseman, '18, Guard. A good basket ball player is a combination of a thing. He possesses the ability to think and act, the determination to win and the physical make-up to act quickly. Bill possessed these things and his true abil- ity was shown in the Alumni game. Faithfulness at practice and a de- termination to better his playing has done wonders for Bill who was a tower of strength to the local team-McClure. Red Gibson, '22, Center. M Red was there all the time and although a little slow in getting started, always played his man to death. He will be a ,big asset to the next three year's teams and with a little more development will prove a star. Dungan, '18, Forward. This player also gave every man he played, a run for his money. Irvine was especially good in floor work, and was always scrapping. Whenever he was near the basket, Kit usually meant a basketj and next year's team will miss this quality. Willis, '22, Guard. Curly proved to be a good guard always holding down his man and occasionally coming up the floor for a shot. He will be back for several years and will be a good nucleous around which to form a team. Mclntyre, '22, Guard. ' Mac did not get in the game much but when he was in, he al- ways gave a good account of himself, because of his bulldog tactics. Veidt, '18, Guard. Veidt played a very consistent game whenever he was given the chance not only holding down his man but shooting baskets himself, and was a great help. Next year promises to bring forward a very substan- tial man when Charlie comes back on the floor. Shenker, '18, Manager. He was always willing to do his share and never complained. It will be very hard to find a manager in years to come who will fill Shenk's shoes in the same way. COACH BOLENBAUGH J: ,,Qf 5 DUNCAN WILLIS 67 VEIDT 53. ' GIBSON WISEMAN McINTYRE SH .T ENKER J an.

The following Seniors have been faithful members for four years: Helene Applegate, Ruth Mark- wood, Gail Kerns, Mary Margaret Nye, Clara Singrey, Miriam Snider, William Wiseman, Donald Hunter and Irvine Dungan. The Society has found a new ally, however, in the class of '21. These Freshmen will take that place that the Seniors vacate as they, of all the classes, are the most interested. The programs which used to be long and prosy, have gradually de- veloped into the kind thatumake an evening of entertainment. Wit and humor are the predominating characteristics. You will never know how much of good friendship and social en- joyment you've missed in your High School course until you join this Society.

' The first semester was devoted largely to the study of elementary bookkeeping, special attention being given to the analyzing of trans- actions and preparing of business statements, such as the Trading, Pro- fit and Loss, Resource and Liability, etc. During the second semester advanced bookkeeping was taken up, the work being in the form of wholesale accounting, with special col- umn journal and cashbook, customers' ledger and other auxiliary books. Thorough drills were given in such subjects as the preparing of analy- tic statements, opening and closing of double-entry books, adjusting of partners' interests, and preparing of general business statements. sf SHORTHAND Twenty-six pupils have been enrolled in shorthand throughout the year. The entire text on theory in Gregg shorthand has been completed with a thorough review. Eleven pupils have submitted examination papers for the Complete Certificate on the theory, which requires an average of 95 per cent on each lesson, making twenty-six test papers. These papers are now in the hands of the Gregg examiner of New York City, and there is no doubt but that a favorable report will be received. s , The post-graduates and seniors were given the privilege of two periods during the second semester, in order to take up dictation, which is really the second year's work. Those who availed themselves of this opportunity have progressed nicely and are now writing shorthand at a fair rate of speed. As a whole the pupils in the Commercial Department have shown an interest in their work and are to be commended for their efforts. Sn! PERSONNEL OF HKH4 SCHOOL ORCHESTRA Director, Ralph Sexauer.

Not only have they assisted upon every public occasion such as lectures, plays, etc., at the High School but several times have they gone out into the city to assist various or- ganizations including a number of churches. In addition of all of this they have conducted their affairs on a strictly business basis due in a large part to the untiring efforts of Albert Pfeiffer their Business Manager and Martin Shonting, Assistant Direc- tor. The organization has been in existence for several years and has always done good work. Never before in the history of the school have the outside people been so interested. Mr. Candee, one of our most prominent business men played the part of the good samaritan and do- nated to the orchestra many volumes of music. The school board also buy our music and finance our organization. Our plan is to give a con- cert later in the year, the funds from which will buy a remembrance for the school as a memento of the year's work. Every member showed a spirit of helpfulness, good fellowship and co-operation to help make the year successful. -4 7 sw WNW 75 ALUMNI NOTES 1856 J. C.

P lxlm' it Ml XXX WW Y 7, fl! - V- QR? 1. :ish March 1.-L. H. S. was presented with a service flag this morning at chapel by two members of our faculty, Miss Perfect and Miss Curtiss. This was one of the most inspiring chapel services we have had. Rev. Dungan, Attorney Brooks Shell and our Principal Mr. Hickson gave ex- cellent talks. We are certainly indebted to Miss Perfect and Miss Cur- tiss. March 4.-Why, oh, Why can't Eddie Wilson be a nice little boy? March 5.4Didcha ever? Tests, tests, tests. March 6.-The chief informs us that Mirage material must be in etc. At which we all grin knowlingly and stroll across the hall leav- ing a somewhat bewildered chief glaring furiously. March 7.-The first Rhetorical is tonight. Needless to say the com- placent seniors are not at all Hfussed up. March 8.-Would there were Rhetoricals every night! ! Miss Gar- rison assigns a short Cget it?J History lesson. March 11.-Our disgust is unutterable to think that we had to have more tests. As we say so glibly in Spanish, Me faltan palabrasf' March 12.-Miss Reasoner remonstrates with her classes today and chids them gently, oh very gently, because they haven't their lesson. March 13.--And nothing happened either. Well we never were superstitious anyway. March 14.-Horrors! Did you ever imagine that Irvine Dungan would say Darn? March 15.-Aren't our little Freshmen meek? Yes, they 'are not. March 18.-School may have its alleviations but we fail to see them. March 19.-What was the topic of conversation today? Yes, you guessed exactly right. It was the weather. March 20.-We have some aversion towards our faculty today. I do wonder why? March 21.-Oh la! la! Aren't we the frolicsome creatures? Spring has come at last.' Rhetorical tonight. March 22.-This was George's birthday. But our faculty absol- utely refused to celebrate it and have chapel. March 25.-Why worry? 'Twill not always be thus? No, we won't always have to study Caesar, says Ed Bolenbaugh. March 26.-The staff pictures are to be taken tonight. March 27.-We were mighty glad to have with us, in our chapel services two Canadian soldiers, Private O'Brein, a hero of Vimy Ridge and Snapper Pinney. Both of the men gave interesting accounts of their experiences and we were certainly fortunate to have them with us. March 28.-This day was spent in thinking how we would enjoy our vacation tomorrow. April 2.-Several corsages appear in the halls today. That is they were corsages. April 3.-Staff holds a meeting today, we certainly did enjoy it. April 4.-The Editors held a meeting in the Soop's office at which a lot of energy was expended in talking, and 'tis even said Miss Reasoner lost her patience at the meeting. April 5.-The Class pictures were taken today. But the big thing is to be the Minstrel show tonight. April 8.-Whew! What are they doing in the lab. mildly inquires Miss Garrison as the pleasant odor of H2S. issues into the office. April 9.-The Chem students are having some time in the lab. Now don't you wish you were taking chemistry? April 10.-The seniors have such a worried look in their faces. Now isn't that just too provoking to think Miss Reasoner would inflict one of her always welcome lectures on them. April 11.-Rhetorical tonight. April 12.-The Glee Club holds an important session this morning. April 15.-Sat. the chem students went to Columbus and that accounts for their beaming faces this morning. April 16.-J. Russell Stukey proves himself to berquiet adapt in the art of embroidery today. April 17 .-More tests! Oh, well, was there ever a day passed that we didn't have either a test or a Quia? April 18.-Rhetorical tonight. April 19.-Oh! this is Friday and tomorrow there won't be any school. Sweet consolation, isn't it? April 22.-Rain, Rain, Rain. April 23.-The Freshmen are truly patriotic and if all of our up- per classmen were just as willing to .work Old L. H. S. would have a record to be proud of. . April 24.-James Bentley Ball repeats the concert tonight, which he gave here Friday under the auspices of the Freshmen class. April 25.-Eddie Wilson does not appear at English today. Too bad you were so ill, Eddie. April 26.-All Mirage material must be in today. So we do our best and have it all in by 2:30. The Senior Spring play will be given tonight and doubtless will be as big asuccess as the first one. Y x E D 7 , :if 7-1.4-li, N55 Y Q 'T ' ' Sf X X W.
