They toil by day and toil by night To keep their work at par; They know their lessons as they might If we were what they are.

Refrain from throwing insults on, A mind that errs so ever slight, And do the things, that should be done, If classes try to do what’s right. There may be one deficient boy, Or such a girl that you can see, But yet the classes all enjoy, A knowledge of polarity. So when you try to criticize a class, Do not refer to any lad or lass. —W. E.

Everybody there. Over one hundred enrolled of which forty-one were freshmen. This is the largest class ever to enter Waterloo High School. We were a jolly bunch and took the jokes good natured. Soon our greenish ways began to leave us and we became less timid. We looked forward with assurance to the coming year as Sophomores. Seven members had left our ranks during the year, making our number thirty-four. We started our Sophomore year with twenty-nine members, but another boy entered making a total of thirty. We were more serious now and looked forward with great expectancy to our Junior year which was to be our first year in the Waterloo-Grant Township High School Building. During the summer the new building was completed and we, as Juniors, entered our new home with great satisfaction and pride. Our number now was twenty-six, later two more joined our class, making twenty-eight. During this year three mem¬ bers left and one entered, making twenty-six. The next Autumn we returned as Seniors. Our last year, with an enrollment of twenty-seven. The first semester we lost one member, the last semester one of our members was compelled to leave us, but she is still one of our class. We will be the sec¬ ond class to graduate from the new building, and hope to retain memories of our High School activities throughout our lives. Our High School days are over. This time divides us, as no other time has done. But this we know: It will depend upon ourselves, what we make of the gifts and powers we possess. We have laid a few foundations in science and learning, but we are sure they are good and well impressed upon us by our faithful teachers. Let us be, then, true to ourselves, to our country, and to God, and to the High School wherein we have secured our knowledge. —Richard DeLong ’28 1928 Page Twenty-eight (Slip iRnsrbuii SENIOR CLASS POEM A group of girls, a group of boys Of age and size for kiddies toys Upon the campus could be seen As green as trees that’s evergreen; And well it was that each had brains To function as the winds and rains, And wear the greenish colored down To what is termed as—“done and brown” And now their minds no more contrive To function as in twenty-five. A group of larger girls and boys Return again to school decoys To seek elimination from A silliness that seems to come From being in the second year Of High School learnings world career; And soon it is they realize The presence of the wanted prize— A form of card, a legal pass, A transfer from the Sophomore class. A group of students grown a year, Sending forth a jolly cheer Present themselves in one great mass Congratulate the Junior class; And thus in twenty-seven they Look forward to the month of May To spend the wondrous summer days In twenty thousand different ways, They then return in twenty-eight To learn a lot and graduate. A group of girls of dignity The boys the same as they can be Return the fourth and fatal year To pass their final school career; And each displays the efforts to Complete the work they have to do; Each working for the class as one To do the things that should be done, And help to build the standard of A class of right in life and love. A group of women and of men Have finished school and must begin The step of living that express Disgust of life or else success; A cheer goes up from them and me, A cheer of hope and sympathy And with it is the wish that each May gain the throne for which they reach. —W.

I hear he is editor of the Waterloo Press; there¬ fore I suppose you are in high society. This made me think of my other classmates in Waterloo High. I will tell you what I know of them. Last week I received an invitation from Martha Griffin to attend the annual banquet of the athletic association of Chicago University of which she is a member. As Dorothy and Loy Ayers were visiting me at the time I could not attend. While they were here we attended the Chicago- New York Basketball game. Clayton Pontius and Bob Crooks played on the Chicago team and are classed as two of the most active players on the team. I was told that Paul Ankney was offered a large salary to play but since he has been chosen president of the Indiana Incorporated Bus Line, he has given up athletics. We also attended a music recital given by the Hamman Musical en¬ tertainers, Noah Hamman being the director and June Campbell taking the leading vocal part. I did not talk to Noah but had a long talk with June. She told me she was still waiting for George DeLong, who is taking a tour in Europe. When I took Mr. and Mrs. Ayers to the aviation field where they were leaving for Cincinnati, I found the pilot of the plane to be no one but Floyd Heighn. He told me that Myrtle Rhom-Shaffer was going to make a trans-Atlantic flight. He said she was a very successful aviatrix. Have you seen the book called “Memories of Waterloo High?” It has been put on the market just recently and has won Walter Wing world wide fame. It contains all his poems written during his high school career at Waterloo. I read an article in the paper this morning stating that Margaret Crooks, being heart-broken after Charles Mayne eloped with June Rufner, had left for Africa to be a missionary. Maxine Voss accompanied her as doctor and nurse. Today KYW announced the famous production of Otto Shuman, movie director, starring Clark Kelley as a pre-historic cave man. In glancing over last evening’s paper I read the advertisement of the Dilley Tailoring and Dry Cleaning establishment. I heard that Wilda Blue and Richard DeLong are employed there. I also saw the marriage license of Roy Smalley and Mary Lu Kiplinger. I was anxious to see how Lorraine took it but found that Judge Spackey had rescued her and they were in South America on their wedding tour. I am still manicurist in Hotel Victoria here. It is very interesting and I like it.

And you may believe We’ll be very sad When the time comes to leave. —Thelma Farrington ’29 JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY We the Jolly Junior Class entered the Waterloo High School, as Freshmen in the year of nineteen hundred and twenty-five numbering twenty-four. Hoping to retain this number through¬ out the four years, but at the end of the year we lost six of our members, leaving nineteen of us to climb one step higher the next year as silly Sophomores. Upon returning the next year the nineteen of us found our¬ selves situated in the New High School Building. But near the close of the year we lost one member, leaving eighteen to enter the coming year as Jolly Juniors. At the beginning of our Junior year we found that our class was reduced to thirteen, meaning that six of our members had left us. We are hoping to retain this number when next year we will be Dignified Seniors. —Mildred Newcomer ’29 1928 Page Thirty-six Page Thirty-seven Slnsrhub SOPHOMORE CLASS ORGANIZATION President .Wayne Crooks Vice President .Mural Wise Secretary-Treasurer .Albert Dunn Poet .Daisie Mae Bowman Historian .Wilbur Kimmell Class Colors Cardinal and Black Class Flower Tea Rose Class Motto Our aim, our hope is, to win CLASS ROLL Muriel Beard Daisie Mae Bowman Robert Boyer James Bricker Ralph Childs Waldo Crooks Wayne Crooks Mary Duncan Albert Dunn Louise Gill Earleen Heighn Wilbur Kimmell Mae Link Vivian McBride Marian Mustard Henry Riggs Edward Schlosser Loretta Schuller Virgil Troyer Clair Walker Clayton Warner Mural Wise Vera Yarlot Page Thirty-eight 0l)P ISoafbuil 1928 SOPHOMORE CLASS Reading from left to right: First row Muriel Beard, Mural Wise, Marion Mustard, Daisie Bowman, Mae Link, Vera Yarlot, Loretta Schuller Second row Henry Rigg, Edward Schlosser, Clayton Warner, Clair Walker, Ralph Childs, Albert Dunn, Virgil Troyer, Vivian McBride Third row Earleen Heighn, Waldo Crooks, Wayne Crooks, Wilbur Kimmell, Mary Duncan, Louise Gill, Robert Boyer, James Bricker Page Thirty-nine utyr iKnarlmii SOPHOMORE CLASS POEM We place ourselves within all sight, And let our colors fly, The cardinal and the black within All visionary eye.

We were timid; however not very much more than upperclass¬ men who were also lost in the new edifice. We felt very proud to be the first class to start its High School career in the new Waterloo High School. Upon returning this year we found to our grief that twelve members of our class failed to return. This left us with a total of twenty-three members to be silly Sophomores. We hope that every one of them will return next year to be Jolly Juniors. —Wilbur Kimmell ’30 1928 Page Forty Page Forty-one Sltp SJoarbuh FRESHMAN CLASS ORGANIZATION President .Maurice Strater Vice President .Anna Wines Secretary and Treasurer .Edith Kline Historian .Charles Wilson Poet .Ralph Boyer Class Colors Orange and Midnight Blue Class Flower White Rose Class Motto Upward not downward, forward not backward Edna Albright Edith Kline Ralph Bainbridge Delos Kohl Grace Blue Gerald Kitchen Eugene Bonecutter Francis Koons Charles Bowman Genieve McBride Ralph Boyer Irene Oyler Hazel Childs Charles Rose Patrick Crooks Claude Sherwood Joanna Dennison Helen Smalley Helene Dunn Mildred Stevenson Harold Griffin Maurice Strater Francis Jenkins Lowell Strite Gerald Griffin Lloyd Walker Mary Harmes Ruth Wheeler Emma Harring Charles Wilson Helen Kelley Anna Wines Vivian Wing cl 1928 Page Forty-two FRESHMAN CLASS Reading from left to right: First roiv Helen Kelley, Maurice Strater, Ruth Wheeler, Helen Smalley, Anna Wines, Edna Albright, Helene Dunn, Charles Rose, Joanna Dennison, Emma Harring Second row Vivian Wing, Delos Kohl, Ralph Bainbridge, Claude Sherwood, Patrick Crooks, Gerald Kitchen, Charles Wilson, Lowell Strite, Genieve McBride, Mildred Stevenson Third row Ralph Boyer, Hazel Childs, Edith Kline, Mary Harmes, Charles Bowman, Eugene Bonecutter, Irene Oyler, Gerald Griffin, Grace Blue, Frank Koons 1928 Page Forty-three ®br iKnapbub FRESHMAN CLASS POEM On September sixth, we came to Waterloo High, Of knowledge we had none, We soon found out it meant study and work, Instead of just pure fun.

We are a large class of thirty now; We started with thirty-one, Sincerely we hope for the next three years, To keep every member and lose not a one. —Ralph Boyer ’31 FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY The Freshman Class of twenty-eight entered the Waterloo High School, September sixth, nineteen hundred twenty-seven, with a total of thirty-two members, of whom twenty are grad¬ uates of the eighth grade in Waterloo School System.

But when sweet May her flowers sprout, We come to school with joyous shout. And in our hearts will sing, The joy the end of May shall bring. Some in the seventh grade shall stay, Regarding not the last of May. But some shall pass—their hearts are light, They work and play with all their might. And as the years fly swiftly by, Those few will always wonder why They did not study hard those years, And keep from shedding tears. So on the 18th of May We do decide to quit or stay. We are so tired of these books, Thinking, knowing, knowledge looks; Because when May has come this year, It will be full of joy and cheer. But we shall always try to remember, To return to school in September. —Nancy Drew SEVENTH GRADE CLASS HISTORY A class of twenty-five pupils started in the first grade in nineteen hundred twenty- ty-one to Miss Hollopeter. Throughout the next six years pupils kept going and com¬ ing until this year we have a class consisting of twenty-four members. We are very proud of our class and hope it retains this number to come back next year as eighth graders. —Mildred Wing EIGHTH GRADE CLASS POEM Our class is now in grade eight, This Spring we hope to graduate; We’ve gone to school for eight whole years, Don’t you think it’s time for us to appear in High School? We hope that in the next four years, We’ll succeed as well as we have here; We’re going to work real hard and try To keep our standard just as high in High School. —Helen Moyer EIGHTH GRADE CLASS HISTORY At the beginning of the year nineteen twenty, we had an enrollment of thirty; as we went upward through the grades some of our members left us and a few new ones joined us. We, the class of thirty-two gathered at our new school house on the eighth day of September, nineteen twenty-seven, to finish climbing toward the Freshman year and to the heights of wisdom.

At the beginning of the year an election was held, resulting in Virginia Bachtel assuming the responsibilities of president, Mural Wise, secretary, and Edith Kline, librarian. The Christmas activities consisted of a party and gift exchange in which the members and the faculty and glee club participated, and a charming operetta “Santa Saves the Day” was given by the Junior High. Members of the glee club were requested to give a selection at the Young Peoples’ Association, and also at a meeting of the P. T. A. at which the High School gave the entire program. A double quartette rendered the selection “Uncle Moon” in a pleasing manner. Other musical num¬ bers were instrumental duet by Vera Yarlott and Thelma Farrington, chorus of eighth grade girls and a piano solo by Vinnie Meyer. Two double quartettes were organized at the first of the term. In February the best voices were selected from these and entered in the musical contest with the selection “Mighty Lak’ a Rose”. The chorus which was composed of twenty-four members entered with the selection “Sandman am a Softly Cornin’.” During the second semester a charming operetta was given by the grade pupils. The High School operetta “In Tulip Time” was given as the last musical event.

Two of the party, Ned and Dick, are much more interested in Christina and her friend Ka- tinka. News reaches the village that a thief has been stealing choice bulbs of prize tulips, and a handbill describes the thief and offers a re¬ ward for his capture. Ned and Dick induce McSpindle to wear certain clothing answering the description of the tulip thief. When the Burgo¬ master beholds McSpindle so attired he causes his arrest. With McSpindle out of the way, the boys promote their friendship with the girls and learn that Christina’s stock is, unknown to her, of immense value. They re¬ veal the truth to her and thwart the Burgomaster’s attempt to grow rich at her expense. With the assistance of Christina’s Aunt Ann, the inno¬ cence of McSpindle is established and the latter declares his affection for her; and with the prospect of a triple wedding the final curtain falls.

The members have not been backward in taking an active part in the program and though this co-operation with their presi¬ dent, the society has not gone below expectations. The Zedaletheans gave a program once a month and each time a new program committee was selected so that every student had a part in preparing the program. —Maxine Voss ’28 1928 Page Sixty Reading from left to right —Margaret Crooks, Marjorie Goodwin, Dorothy Ging¬ rich, Maxine Voss. INAUGURAL ADDRESS Fellow Zedaletheans, Schoolmates, Faculty, and Friends: On this occasion I wish to thank the Zedaletheans for the honor they have bestowed upon me by making me President of their society. Long since have I realized that it is not all honor to hold this position, but their is a certain degree of work and responsibility connected with it. How¬ ever this is easily done providing spirit and co-operation are behind each effort. It has been a real necessity for all former Presidents to have a hearty co-operation of the members. This is not only a benefit to yourself, but necessary for a higher standard in your society. To obtain this higher standard, you do your best and I my very best, and this society will re¬ main supreme. Dorothy Gingrich ’28 INAUGURAL ADDRESS Zedaletheans, Faculty and Friends: Upon entering into the duties of President, I wish to thank the mem¬ bers of the Society for this office. Although I am certain there are others more capable of holding this position, I will take up the work of the so¬ ciety to the best of my ability. With the co-operation of every member, I am sure we can maintain the former high standard of the Zedalethean Society.

It is a great responsibility but I will do my utmost to help keep the standard of the society raised. It must be kept in mind, however, by every member of the society that this alone will not carry us through. We need co-operation, so let each and every one of us do our part without further urging. If this is practiced throughout the year the Ciceronian Society will be kept at its usual high standard. I thank you, Viola Shultz, Pres. 1928 Page Sixty-two Reading from left to right —Viola Shultz, Ralph Frick, Claude Spackey, June Rufner. INAUGURAL ADDRESS Members of the Ciceronian Literary Society, Faculty and Friends:— As I enter upon my career as president of this society, I wish to thank the Ciceronians for this office they have bestowed upon me. I promise that I will carry out the work with a will and determination to keep up the standard of the society and improve it to the best of my ability. It is not my purpose to attempt a talk to you at this time, that could by any stretch of imagination be dignified by the name of a formal ad¬ dress. I will try to entreat you for a few minutes in some of the essen¬ tial elements of success relative to our society. The old maxim that “there is no excellence without great labor”, was never more true than it is now. In order that we may hold the society up to the standard, or if possi¬ ble raise it to a higher standard we must co-operate. When you are as¬ signed a part on the program, do not put it off, but give it some thought and prepare it as soon as you can. The person who does not prepare his part until the last day cannot expect to succeed with his part as well as the one who prepares his earlier. We must be broadminded enough to see the great benefit we will receive from it in the future. All great men are forward lookers and as a great question arises they look ahead into the future and think over the situation to lay their plans. When the time for action comes they are ready. In conclusion I want to say, I, as your presiding officer expect your most hearty co-operation in every line of this literary work. Claude H.

The Home Ec. girls served lunch at noon practically every day throughout the year, which was a great benefit to all. Especially the pupils coming in from the country, for it enabled them to have a warm lunch. PHYSICS LABORATORY CLASS The Physics class has work in the laboratory two days out of each week. The laboratory is well equipped enabling many interesting experi¬ ments to be performed which teach us much about practical things in life. In this way we become better able to understand many different kinds of mechanics which surround us every day in our lives. 1928 Page Seventy-one Oiljr iSnarlwit VOCATIONAL Every year the business firms employ better educated men to do their work. They buy new machinery to meet the demand of the custo¬ mers. By educating their men they can obtain a higher efficiency. By efficiency we mean that the working men are producing articles at the least cost possible. The same thing applys to the farmer. He must have the best machinery in order to get his work done with the least cost possible. The best way to accomplish these ends is to educate the younger gen¬ erations and teach the young boys how to carry on agriculture by using the new and improved ways. The only way to educate the younger gen¬ eration is to have a “Vocational Agricultural Department” in each high school where these ends can be accomplished. Each year the boys that take vocational work are required to take some kind of a summer project. This project must be completed before the boy is given his credit. They may choose one or more of the follow¬ ing projects: Potato club, two pig clubs, corn club, Jersey calf club, and dairy heifer club. Each project requires the contestant to keep a record of the work, amount of feed, amount of money spent to carry out the project, and ev¬ erything in detail. At the completion of the work, a book must be sent along with the product to the show. The score is based on neatness of the book, cost of production, story, and the product. The following is the results at the pig club show held last fall: Po¬ land China Club: Waldo Crooks, first prize, scoring 90% ; Robert Boyer, second prize, scoring 86% ; Howard Hine, fourth prize, scoring 79% ; Maurice Stroh, fifth prize , scoring 73% . Chester White club: Albert Dunn, third prize, scoring 80%. In the Eat Barrow club, Ralph Boyer won first prize, scoring 95%, with an average of 271 lbs. in 180 days. Maurice Stroh won second prize, scoring 82%. The following is a list of the boys who won prizes in the County Po¬ tato Show: First year: Pierce Ayers, first prize; Floyd Myers, second prize; Henry Rigg, third prize. Second year: Clive Ayers, first prize. State Show advance class: Clive Ayers, first prize $15. First year: Pierce Ayers, first prize $100 scholarship to Purdue University; Floyd Myers, fourth prize $10; Henry; Rigg, seventh prize $7. State potato club in Section XV ' II: Clive Ayers, first prize $10; Pierce Ayers, second prize $5; Floyd Myers, eighth prize $1; Henry Rigg, twelfth prize $1. The highest yield in the State Potato Show was that of Pierce Ayers, his yield was 512.4 bushels per acre. There were three of the boys from Waterloo who had a yield of 500 bushels per acre. r l he results mentioned above were all financial results. These do not compare with the results gained through actual experience along the line of these projects. —Howard Dilley ’28 1928 Page Seventy-two THE MYSTERY HOUSE i Peter Buccanion, accused of the murder of Grace Delrox, and Larry Sars, also suspicioned of the same, were walking around Sharonsville discussing the matter. The murder had taken place many years before. Peter was the half brother of Mr. Delrox. Peter and Grace were sweethearts long ago. Del¬ rox returned home from college and saw Grace. She fell for his fickle ways, so they were married. There was a baby born, and June grew to be very beautiful. She favored her mother, and every time Peter looked at her the memories of her mother were brought to his mind. Some years after, Mrs. Delrox was in the library reading when she was shot. Peter was seen leaving the house after the shot was heard and Larry was first to find her. They were both accused but there was no evidence. As they were walking, Larry spoke first. “Sorry Mr. Buccanion, but I must leave you to see my lawyer about our case.” Peter walked on when suddenly someone spoke to him. “Lo Pete, nice morning.” Peter looked up. It was his friend Dr. Grayson. “Hello Grayson. Say, Doctor, I am obliged to ask you to help me in clearing my name of murder.” “Well Peter, I’ll do my best. What is it you want?” “Come to the Mystery House at eleven o’clock and I’ll make it as clear as possible. But it is to be a secret.” The hour came and they met at the Deserted House. “Is that you, Peter?” asked Dr. Grayson. They lit a candle and sat down to discuss matters. Peter spoke first. “This is my problem. I want you to sign my death warrant and then I’m going to have my face lifted, then I shall start over again.” The Dr. looked puzzled. “But do you think we could get away with it?” “Of course we can.” So the next day was spent in preparing for the death of Peter. Word was sent to Mr. Delrox and June that Peter was very low, and was expect¬ ed to die any minute. Delrox hated Peter and always spoke of his past in a sneering way. So he came to torture Peter. He was accompanied by June and her flap¬ per step-mother, who had at one time been Peter’s wife. When they were together everyone around was unsafe. They plotted and planned but al¬ ways money saved them. The party entered the room. Delrox and his wife, Beatrice, came over to the bed where Peter lay. Peter was entirely paralyzed. It was his eyes which told of the pain, and that he wanted to speak. John was first to speak to him. ‘‘Well, old fellow you won’t kill my second wife. Your criminal life is nearly over.” He turned to speak to the Doctor while Beatrice looked at Peter. She kneeled and spoke to him. “Peter,” she purred, “I have always loved you. Good-bye dearest and forgive me.” Peter thought, “Oh how deceitful women are.” The next day they received word that Peter had died and his body cremated. Peter left on the night train with Dr. Gra yson for New York. In a year Peter, alias Philip Brent, returned to Sharonsville, a slick gentleman, 1928 Page Seventy-three filin ' Uvusrlwfi looking thirty years old, black curly hair and a thin black line on his upper lip. He came from the detective agency in New York to clear the mur¬ der of Grace Delrox. June was now the picture of her mother. Beautiful big blue eyes, golden hair, and cherry red lips. Of course she belonged to Larry and Peter wouldn’t think of hurting him only he just wanted her to have him. When Beatrice saw Peter, she tried to attract his attention but he was too sharp for her. At the time he thought she might be suspicious of his disguise but nothing was ever said. Peter at intervals could hear Beatrice and John plotting together. His life was in danger and he realized it. He almost lost his life when John tried to push him off the cliff. Then again by a plot to shoot him. One day while Doctor Grayson and Peter were in his apartment they heard a knock at the door. Peter answered and Beatrice came in. “How do you do Mr. Brent.” She kept on speaking in an affected tone, all the time trying to get his attention and coming closer to him. They had a pleasant afternoon and planned to meet at the Mystery House for further investigation of the murder. That night at the appointed hour they arrived at the Mystery House. They were talking very seriously of Mr. Buccanion when they heard a scream. They turned and saw John Delrox. “Help,” he screamed. “She-her ghost is after me. I killed her; I killed her.” The detective caught him and held him securely. The Doctor came down jerking a sheet from his body. Just then the door flew open and June and Larry entered. They understood what had happened and they also cleared Larry’s name. Peter walked over to June and said, “There is something I have al¬ ways wanted to tell you. I am Peter Buccanion, not Philip Brent. You, June, are not June Delrox, but June Buccanion. I am not your uncle but I am your father. Your mother belonged to me. God knows that is why I have always loved you. It will not be public, but you are mine.” She rushed to his arms and was held tenderly. “Just one more word please,” said Larry. “Mr. Buccanion, do you have any objections to my being your son-in-law?” “Certainly not.” “Thanks. Good night.” They were gone. Beatrice and Peter were alone. “Now that it is all over. Do you think that we can begin life all over?” “Yes, dear.” He folded her tenderly in his arms. —Daisie Mae Bowman ’31 DAVID ROBINSON A small dingy, noisy covered wagon rattled over the great dim Ca¬ nadian Plains. This wagon with its three occupants had traveled for three weeks from Ontario northward for the reason that it was an import¬ ant adventure—“The Alaskan Gold Rush.” The wagon was drawn by four horses, very beautiful creatures. The names of the three in this odd vehicle were Mrs. Robinson, Mr. Robinson, and their son, David, who was nearly nineteen. David was very handsome and in full bloom of health, fit for any journey in North America. 1928 Page Seventy-four The family was one thousand two hundred miles from their goal and the weather was turning unfavorable. The damp cold wind blew in their faces, making the trio huddle close together to keep from freezing. That night they took their turns keeping the fire blazing and the wolves away. It was the father’s turn to watch. He went into the forest to get wood for the fire and never returned. David and his mother slept until sunrise, being awakened by a long heart-chilling cry of a leader wolf. Alarmed by this cry, David crept forth all dressed. In his hands he carried a rifle and his face had a strange ghastly look. “Where is father?” his face seemed to say. “Why, what’s the matter, son?” the mother was puzzled. “Isn’t father here?” The words of David raised a lump in his throat as he muttered them in a sob, “Didn’t you hear the wolf cry a few minutes ago and I have tried to find him around the camp? May God help us on to our journey’s end if anything has happened to —” David’s mother went into a swoon and was very ill afterwards. Mr. Robinson was found later by David half eaten by wolves, but he didn’t tell his mother of it. The two traveled three weeks when they came to the Mackenzie River. Here in a small village David met a girl whom he loved very much. This girl was about the age of David and any man would look twice at her, because of her astounding beauty. Her dazzling blue eyes and her wavy hair made a person wonder how God could have made any woman in the gold region in which every man was rushing to make his fortune. The girl’s name was Mary LaGrange, from a royal family. David and Mary did all they could to save his mother’s life but alas, death came. Both stood near the bed in which the dear faithful mother lay trying to win against the one great word “Death.” The mother raised herself and said in a weak voice, “Go David, for my sake and make your fortune because I believe it is God’s will that you shall if you are not the first one to get there. Please kiss me son, and you also, Mary, for I hear God calling me.” Mary and David stooped and kissed her. They scarcely could restrain from crying. The mother held each of their hands to her white lips and in this way passed into eternity. One week later David bid Mary good-bye. David went into the claim office and deposited his number with one hundred dollars. The claim mas¬ ter shook his head and said; “You are lucky for this is the last strip of the Klondike region. Men will be there to work tomorrow and you will be required to pay them daily. 0. K. young man?” David replied “Yes,” and left the office his mother’s words still ringing in his ears. He went to a small saloon where he wrote a letter to Mary telling her of his arrival. The next day two men came to him and offered two hundred dollars for his claim. While they were trying to make him sell a boy came run¬ ning in saying, “Mr. Robinson, you have gold in your claim; also I heard one worker say that there is at least eighty thousand dollars worth there.” Thus dreams had come true. He had gold—his gold and Mary’s. The two men quickly left. David went to the claim and found it to be true. Mr. David Robinson had Mary LaGrange’s name changed by mutual consent. So ends my story. —Virgil Troyer ’31 1928 Page Seventy-five ®ltr BUisrbitb THE CAPTURE The cold winds of January howled and shrieked around the old farm house. The snow made the night light. Every one in their homes thought with pity of anyone whom necessity compelled to be out in the storm that night. Alone by the fireside in the country home of Walter Mayson sat his only daugh¬ ter, Marie. She was thinking of her father who had gone to the city, and who even now might be on his way home. The invalid mother had retired, leaving her daugh¬ ter to keep up the fire and watch for the father’s return. After making the house secure from the piercing winds she returned to her seat and fell to musing. Earlier in the evening Harry Harding had had a disagreement and Harry had departed in anger. It was this which Marie thought of. Suddenly she heard the stamping of feet on the porch followed by a rude knock on the door. Marie hesitated about opening the door but finally arose and opened it. The man on the threshold was heavy and tall but seemingly feeble. He asked for food and lodging that night. “I am afraid we cannot accommodate you,” said the girl. Then seeing a half disappointed look come over his face, said, “However I will ask my mother.” She went to her mother’s room. “Mother!” she exclaimed as she closed the door of the room, “there’s a rough looking man outside. He asked if he might have lodging for the night. I think as we are alone we had better turn him away, don’t you?” “I think that perhaps it would be better to entertain him for it has always been our custom,” answered the mother. “Just as you like, mother,” agreed the girl, “but I hope dad comes home soon for I think we will be safer.” Again opening the door she told the stranger that he might come in. With a rude growl he shuffled into the room, removed his hat and without an invitation seated him¬ self at the table. “I would like something to eat,” he said suddenly. “Very well,” said Marie, “if you are sure you deserve it.” The stranger remained silent and Marie prepared him a simple supper which he gobbled in silence. When he had finished his supper Marie told him where his bed would be for the night. But he replied that he wished to see her father and would lie on the couch. After a while the girl agreed and sat down in an easy chair, falling asleep. Suddenly she awoke to see the ruffian bending over her, his right hand raised high. Gleaming brightly in this hand was a knife. Marie stared in surprise for she saw he had thrown off his disguise and was “Wicked Bob,” the lawless robber. Though much frightened she managed to steady her voice as she asked, “What is it that you want?” “Hush, girl! Silence!” came the answer from the brute. “Don’t stir or you shall die.” Then as the girl became quiet in his grasp he continued: “Listen, girl, I have learned from trusted people that you father just sold a herd of cattle, receiving a large sum of money, also that it is in the house. Get the money at once.” “Well,” said Marie in a weak voice, “it’s in mother’s room. I shall have to go in there to get it.” “Yes, and be quick about it,” was the cruel answer as she left the room. Marie quickly got the money and hid it in her blouse. She returned to the rob¬ ber, He held out his hand, but she replied that she had gone to her mother’s bedroom to get the key to the safe. She opened the door of the safe and taking out a large bill book, handed it to the outlaw secretly hoping that he would depart without exam¬ ining the contents of the wallet. In this she was disappointed for holding his glitter¬ ing knife between his teeth, he proceeded to open the wallet. When his eye fell on the contents which was nothing but paper, his face became black with rage. He looked up in surprise for the girl had suddenly disappeared. Now he realized that Marie had made her escape, and bounding from the room, he saw Marie carrying her mother out into the open air. He was about to prevent their escape when he stumbled and fell. While lying there a heavy hand was clapped on his shoulder, and he was forced to surrender to Mr. Mayson and Harry Harding. Upon hunting for Marie and her mother, they found them in the woods and safely returned them home. While Mrs. Mayson was telling her. husband all she knew of the event, a private conversation was going on between Marie and Harry, the result of which appeared the next day when they visited the County Clerk. After which they went to a par¬ sonage, where Marie was happily married to Harry Harding. —Earleen Heighn ’31 1928 Page Seventy.six l (Hlf? Shisrbith nus flTHLEl l5 27 ' 28 Page Seventy-seven ®h?

WINKS, Coach Winks has been our coach for three years and has become quite a favorite of the W. H. S. He has coached his teams to have plenty of pep and also be good sports. He wants you to show the old spirit and fight ’em all the time. The students of the W. H. S. wish to thank him for his hearty co-operation throughout the year, and also hope to see him back with us next year. LEROY SMALLEY (Whitie) Captain Forward. Senior. Roy our scrappy little forward and captain of this year’s team played on the Waterloo team for three years as a regular, earning his letter each year. He was characterized by his aggressive¬ ness and speed and was the main cog in the offense. The last of the Smalley boys and one that it will be hard to do without. ROBERT CROOKS (Bob) Forward. Senior. Bob, the rangy forward and long shot artist of the team, played his first year on the regular team and won for him¬ self a place in the hall of fame. Bob was handicapped by the lack of exper¬ ience as he hadn’t played throughout the season before. He was a hard worker and deserves much credit. CLAYTON PONTIUS (Elmer) Center. Senior. Clayton, one of the veterans of last year’s team and our regular center for this year was somewhat handicapped at the start by a broken finger which both¬ ered him throughout the entire season. However he led the team in scoring and played a consistent game both at offense and defense. Clayton was a hard work¬ er and consistent player and will be greatly missed in the coming years. JAMES BRICKER (Jim) Guard. Sophomore. This was Jim’s first year on the team and we will be looking for great things from him in the future. He was a great fighter and had plenty of pep and was a hard worker. Jim was strong on defense and will develop into a good player with more experience. PAUL ANKNEY (Ank) Guard. Senior. This was Paul’s second year on the first team, and he again demonstrated his power on defense and wonderful fighting spirit. Ank’s place at back guard will be hard to fill and his loss will be greatly felt. 1928 Page Seventy-eight 1928 Reading from left to right —Ralph Childs, Harold Moyer, Clark Kelley, Lowell Strite, Albert Dunn, Harry Beard. RALPH CHILDS (Wid) Guard. Sophomore. Ralph is another one of our Sopho¬ mores that made the first team this year and will be a very valuable addi¬ tion to future teams. Ralph playing at guard and forward will work in good at either position as he has speed and size accompanied with the fighting spir¬ it that will make a good player and mean a lot in the future. HAROLD MOYER (Mo) Forward. Senior. Harold played his first year on the regular team and demonstrated that he was a valuable asset to the team. As forward or guard he was an aggressive player and always in the thick of it. CLARK KELLEY (Kelley) Guard. Senior. This was Clark’s first year at basket¬ ball, but he entered into it with a fight¬ ing spirit and won a first team suit. He was alway’s a hard fighter and will¬ ing worker. LOWELL STRITE (Strite) Center. Freshman. This was Lowell’s first year at basket¬ ball as he was a freshman. He how¬ ever, soon developed into a consistent hard working player and a good show¬ ing. With his height and ability and more experience he should make a good player and one that will always be a valuable asset to the Waterloo teams. ALBERT DUNN (Sliver) Forward. Sophomore. Sliver came out for the first time this year and earned a first team suit by hard work. Handicapped by size he made up for it in fight and will. With more experience he will be a valuable addition to future teams. HARRY BEARD (Yell Leader) Junior. Harry worked hard all year with the team as yell leader inspiring pep and enthusiasm into the rooters and play¬ ers. He will be here another year.

Senior. Maxine played guard on the team for three years, and during that time cer¬ tainly made her name dreaded by op¬ ponents’ forwards. She was always in the fight, working hard for W. H. S. and victory. Max gained her reputation early and lived up to it at all times, of being the best guard in this section. VIVIAN McBRIDE (Vivian) ... Center. Sophomoi ' e Vivian playing her first year on the varsity won a regular place by her abil¬ ity to jump. She played jumping cen¬ ter or side center and played a fast fighting game. With more experience she is sure to make a good jumping center next year. DOROTHY GINGRICH (Dot) Guard. Senior. Dorothy played a scrappy game at guard for us this year and W. H. S. will be sorry not to see her in the uni¬ form next year. Dorothy was always fighting hard for victory with a willing spirit and lots of pep. MARTHA GRIFFIN (Mart) Center. Senior. Martha played jumping center on the regular team, and her jumping started the ball our direction. Always trying hard, Martha was a match for the best of opponents and deserves much credit. We lose her by graduation this year. MARY DUNCAN (Dune) Forward. Sophomore. Mary played in two positions as for¬ ward and guard, and at each one she was an outstanding player. She is cer¬ tain to be a valuable player next year in either position defending or where she is needed most. MARJORIE GOODWIN (Goodie) Forward. Junior. Marjorie playing in her old position as forward certainly outdid her last year’s record. She scored 407 points in eighteen games. Marjorie played a con¬ sistent game, always working hard and fighting to the end. We are certainly glad we do not lose her this year as she brought victory to W. H. S. many times. 1928 Page Eighty O. V. WINKS (Coach) Mr. Winks deserves much praise for the patience he has used in coaching the W. H. S. teams the past three years. The enthusiasm that he has showed be¬ fore each game was taken up by each player and had much to do in the win¬ ning of the games. His instructions were always “good sporstmanship, clean playing, and plenty of pep.” MARIAN MUSTARD (Marian) Guard. Sophomore. Marian worked hard and won her sweater this year. Another one of the worthy Sophomores and should in fu¬ ture years make an outstanding player, as she plays in a position where W. H. S. will be in need of new material next year. LOUISE STEVENSON (Hecky) Center. Sophomore. Louise played consistently at side center, making her second year in that position. She will be a valuable player for next year. Her playing was always characterized by her willingness and pep. Louise is a steady, hard-working player. MURIEL BEARD (Beard) Forward. Sophomore. Muriel played her first year on the varsity and is another one of the val¬ uable Sophomores to be left for next year’s team. Muriel played forward and was in the game at all times to do her best and work for W. H. S., always peppy and enthusiastic. MRS. WINKS (Coach) The girls have the greatest respect for Mrs. Winks, “the mother of the town,” to whom we owe many of our victories, as she was there to urge us to keep up the fight when things looked black for W. H. S. She was always the first on the floor when anyone was in¬ jured to see that “her girls” had the best of care. HARRY BEARD (Yell Leader) Harry showed no partiality, and led yells for girls and boys alike. By his pep he helped the team to victory and the rooters to yell. 1928 Reading from left to right —O. V.

Our inexperienced boys could not stop their fast offense. Waterloo 9 November 4 Auburn 38 The big floor and glass backboards were too much. Waterloo 18 November 11 Pleasant Lake 41 The Ransburgs got their basket eye to functioning early in the game. Waterloo 23 November 18 Hamilton 21 The first hard earned victory, and the first time in years that we beat Hamilton on their onion-stage floor. Watch us go. Hurrah. Waterloo 13 November 19 S outh Milford 32 The first game at home accompanied with stage fright and poor shooting. Waterloo 32 November 23 Ligonier 29 Another hard fought and well deserved. The boys displayed fast accurate passing. Waterloo 20 November 25 Orland 27 Another defeat in one of those “pigeon hole” gymnasiums. Waterloo 16 December 2 St. Joe 19 A hard one to lose, but, the boys went down fighting hard. Waterloo 20 December 3 Garrett 16 The unexpected happened in this game when the boys sent Garrett down to defeat in the new gym, by playing up to form on both offense and defense. Waterloo 20 December 10 Butler 33 Butler by an airtight defense sent us down to defeat. Waterloo 23 December 17 Ashley 50 We were no match for the lucky shooting of the Ashley forwards. Waterloo 20 December 23 Pleasant Lake 23 Our last half rally fell three points short of a victory. Waterloo 16 December 30 Alumni 34 The high school went down, fighting, to the stars of previous years. Waterloo 26 January 7 Ligonier 21 Overcoming the handicap of a hard trip and a new floor, we again defeated Ligonier. Waterloo 13 January 14 Ashley 36 Our boys could not get started consequently we suffered defeat. Waterloo 29 January 20 St. Joe 34 After getting off to a poor start, we came back strong and played one of the best games of the year. Waterloo 55 January 21 Corunna 22 Our offense and defense were too much for Corunna and we easily defeated them. Waterloo 19 January 27 Ashley 31 A poor start in the first half lost the game for us in the first round of the county tourney. 1928 Page Eighty-two ®ljr SloBphuii Waterloo 36 February 3 Hamilton 33 Playing without the services of our captain, we again made Hamil¬ ton bow to us. Waterloo 16 February 4 South Milford 50 Lucky shooting by the South Milford forwards and our poor defense the last half, spelled defeat for us. Waterloo 15 February 10 Butler’s offense was too strong for our unlucky boys. Waterloo 21 February 17 Orland 19 We added another victory to our list when our back guard slipped in a long shot. Waterloo 15 February 18 We were still unable to stop Fremont’s fast offense Waterloo 15 February 25 Garrett 23 We were surprised when Garrett came over with a new team and played much better defense. Waterloo 25 March 2 Butler 35 A last half rally did not prove successful, thus we lost in first round of the district tourney. Fremont 27 GIRLS’ BASKETBALL GAMES Waterloo 6 November 4 Auburn 34 The Auburn game was the first game the girls played this season. They put up an excellent fight but in the first half Mural Wise had her knee hurt and the team felt a great loss. The team showed great fight¬ ing spirit. Waterloo 26 November 18 Hamilton 5 The game with Hamilton was won with the best of spirits. The home team had the others outclassed from the first and it was a very easy victory for the W. H. S. Waterloo 49 November 19 South Milford 0 South Milford girls were no comparison with our team. During the game every girl out for basketball was allowed to play and we have splendid hopes for the future team. Waterloo 21 November 23 Ligonier 23 The girls game with Ligonier was the best game that Waterloo girls have ever played. Both teams put up a splendid fight and the school should be proud of their team. It was a tie until the last half minute when the visiting team made a basket. Waterloo 53 November 25 Orland 1 The Orland and Waterloo game was a very easy victory for our team. The team this year is far surpassing the teams of all previous years. Waterloo 32 December 2 St. Joe 4 The game with St. Joe was a very successful and easy victory for the girls. The second team was allowed to display their talent for future stars. Page Eighty-three Waterloo 10 December 3 Garrett 40 This game was a very sad affair for our team but nevertheless we took it with good spirit and hope to increase our score when we play them here. Waterloo 19 December 10 Butler 5 The first three classes in high school played the Butler team. We suffered ill luck on baskets but were victorious in spite of all the trouble. During the game we saw just what team we would have for next year and we wish the team success. Waterloo 25 December 17 Ashley 24 Perhaps one of the hardest games of the season but one that proved a victory for W. H. S. was played at Ashley. Due to their determination and efforts to win as shown in previous games they scored a victory mak¬ ing Ashley suffer their first defeat on their own floor this season. Waterloo 43 December 30 Alumni 17 This game was really played by the city team because all the girls playing did not graduate from W. H. S. However the high school was able to defeat them. Waterloo 17 January 7 Ligonier 32 This game proved a sorry one for the W. H. S. They did not have their usual pep and spirit. It was played at Wolf Lake because of Ligo- nier’s gym not being completed. Waterloo 21 January 14 Ashley 31 The Ashley girls came down with the determination to win and they sure did. W. H. S. played a good game but did not have their usual pep. Waterloo 16 January 20 St. Joe 2 The second game with St. Joe proved as successful for our girls as the first one. The score was not so large as before but the team had the advantage of their home floor. Waterloo 57 January 21 Corunna 10 An easy victory for our team but the girls were sorry they could not get sixty points, but they did get their chicken sandwiches at Fee’s Restaurant. Waterloo 25 February 10 Butler 0 This game all of the team played and as we had very little competition it was an easy game and played with pep. Waterloo 83 February 16 South Milford 0 This game was played at Kendallville and another victory for W. H. S. This time the girls played after school and they certainly came up on their points. Waterloo 46 February 17 Orland 2 Again we beat Orland but this time our score wasn’t as good as be¬ fore. It is almost the last of the season but the girls are still keeping up their pep and fighting spirit. Waterloo 24 February 25 Garrett 46 The last game of the season. The last but not least. The W. H. S. admires the spirit and pluck that the girls have shown throughout the year and we wish luck to ’28 and ’29. � 1928 Page Eighty-four Uospbufl HUMOR As matter how a life may be, As dreary as the foggy sea, As dark and lonely as the moon, When covered by a cloud at noon, It still has that persistent wit, And humor is that soul of it. So cease that gloomy attitude, Observe the life that prospered good, And gather in your arms the powder, That makes you lovely as a flower, Or makes you handsome full of wit; Sure! Humor is the soul of it. —W. E. Wing Page Eighty-six ®he Snarbuii During the second six weeks the fac¬ ulty made some new ru-les, but the students didn’t take them seriously: Art. I—Students will set two seats apart with professors standing between them. Professors will be armed with blackjacks to inspire respect. Art. II—Additional professors on the outside will watch through peep¬ holes in the wall. Art. Ill—Highly tuned dictaphones will be concealed behind the pictures to catch the slightest whisper. Art. IV—When a student has fin¬ ished his test a detector will be used to find out if he has cheated. Amend. I—Mounted police, war guns, etc., will be used in escorting the students out at dismissal and to keep order in the halls during business hours. Mistress—“Can you serve company?” New Maid—“Yes, either way. So’s they’ll come again or so’s they won’t.” Mural—How do you like my per¬ manent wave? Bruce—It makes me crave a per¬ manent shave. The principal was asking the new pupil the usual question: : Mr. Palmer—What does your fath¬ er do? Genieva Me.—My father is dead. Mr. Palmer—But what was he be¬ fore he died? Genieva—Alive. Father—Well, Harry, I received a note from your teacher today. Harry—Is that so pop? Give me a quarter and I won’t breath a word of it to mother. Mural—“I have just completed a modern story.” Marian M.—“Good! Does the hero¬ ine marry the right man?” Mural—“I’ll say she does. She mar¬ ries a different man in every chapter.” Here lies the bones of Willie Cobb, New gateman up in heaven. He shot St. Peter for the job, And won it for a seven. Teacher—.“Use statue in a sentence” Abie—“When I came in last night mine pappa says “Statue, Abie?” “Ah, those eyes.” He met her in the meadow, As the sun was shining low; They walked along together, In the twilight afterglow; Her big eyes shown upon him, As brilliant as the stars, And she was very patient As he let down the pasture bars. She neither smiled nor thanked him, For indeed she knew not how, For he was a farmer lad, and she— A Jersey cow. Mr. Voss—“Maxine, how are your grades this six weeks?” Maxine—“Pretty good! I got A plus in whispering and gum chewing.” Mr. Palmer, coming into Civics class — ' “Roy do you know where your chair is?” Roy—“I ought to I’m sitting in it.” Harry—“Do you know the scientific name for snoring?” Ralph F.—“No, what is it?” Harry—“Sheet music.” Stranger—“I think you would be happier if you should marry a man with less money.” Vera—“Well don’t worry, he’ll soon have less.” ♦ ♦ ♦ June C.—“Is your father very old?” Margaret—“Just a little.

School began with an attendance of fewer in number than we had last year. It cannot be denied that we had weather to an abundance. All extra apparel was discarded for the thinnest. The days became hotter and hotter until finally we had to go to the auditorium to study. The back steps were also used. Some fainted and it is a won¬ der the school was not a home for prostrate bodies. The greatest event was the Freshman reception. The Freshman were very much afraid that their lives would be ended. Some walkd home from a buggy ride. The Cicies and Zedas were organized. The Zedas trying to make the Cicies be¬ lieve they had the best looking bunch. A program was given by the Cicies which was pretty good considering the time given to prepare it. Then came a vacation of one day for the Kendallville fair, giving everyone a chance to ride on the merry-go-round. New rules are established, the result being many English Themes on the subject. The month closed with good results both on the side of the teachers and students. OCTOBER Zedalethean Program was a good beginning. Fine entertainments. Two days to play or rather work. Teachers conference held. Fine music in Fort Wayne by the Navy Band. Better weather. Seniors besieged by teachers. Each must get their work done. Tests! Tests! A regular auction of them. Mr. Fee was lenient. He knew what we knew. Scarlet Fever epidemic has come. Beware! Didn’t spread so fast. Hallowe’en at Circle Park! Mr. Fee said if there would be a party he would skate. He did! The floor was hit many times that night. Many late nights indulged in. Who cares? Nobody! Who suffered? Students! First B. B. game with Fre¬ mont. Good attendance. And good second team. But where was the first team? We’ll hope for the best hereafter. NOVEMBER Stairs to walk down not to slide down. B. B. with Auburn. Decided improve¬ ment over last year. All of the school invited to Y. M. C. A. at Auburn. Guaran¬ teed that any one will learn to swim in ten minutes. Mr. Mustard gave us a tip, go under water when told to. The Rosebud is decided as a reality. Viola is our new Ciceronian President. Some more B. B. Pleasant Lake. Volunteers asked for to take Red Cross subscriptions. Ten percent added to grades. Many wished they had taken it up. We won! Beat Hamilton boys twenty- three to twenty-one. Girls twenty-six to five. South Milford lost to our girls 0 to 49. November 21 we had a Bible Lesson by June Campbell. The photographer is here at last. Only three more days of this week. Wednesday, Nov. 23 Ligonier came here. Boys won! The Zeda Society and children from grades gave a Thanksgiving Program, Wednesday. Two days to be happy and thankful and two more to get over from sickness. Two much rain and snow the last day. DECEMBER Weather still warm. Mr. Mustard’s classes had a vacation of one and a half days. Not so bad. We had a game with St. Joe and Garrett. The girls won. We are en¬ joying and learning many lessons from the preachers of Waterloo. Each had a good iesson to teach. As Mr. Mustard said, “We have only fourteen more intellectual days befors Xmas!” The Cicies gave a good program. Mr. Palmer called Congress to order. A game with Butler was enjoyed. The girls won. The school hack was late. Some came in half frozen. There is lots of foggy weather, rain, and it is getting colder. The Civics class was to go to Auburn to Court. But there was no suitable case. Hurrah for our team! Girls and boys beat Ashley. The Zedas gave a Xmas program and the grades came over to see it. Vacation has come for one week. And the school term is one-half over. 1928 Page One Hundred Eight ulbr SoHpbitb JANUARY Many new resolutions were made but we can’t tell whether they will be kept or not. Comprehension test to find out if we belong in High School or the Grades. Many found to belong in the Grades but were so nervous at the time they they couldn’t write. One of the Juniors stood highest in the school. Review for exams which were held on Thursday and Friday. Everbody came out of this cloud pretty well. Otto has Mr. Palmer fix over his picture for the annual. We want our last pic¬ ture of him! Games, at Corunna and St. Joe. Everybody practicing for plays. The Ciceronian program was given. B. B. tournament was held at St. Joe. Spencerville won. The P. T. A. held their annual meeting the last Monday in the month. Our first month in nineteen hundred twenty-eight ended quite successful. FEBRUARY Seniors busy practicing for the variety program to be given the second. It was a success, but Mr. Palmer says Dr. Shuman was needed for sleeping sickness on Friday following. Seniors are reminded about their credits. Everywhere there is buzz and excitement. The Zedaletheans gave a fine program. A good representation of Shylock was given and we found the cotton-pickers were fine entertainers. Many excuses failed to come in resulting in a general suspension from school until all excuses were in. The School Board presented the High School with “Dr. Eliot’s Five Foot Shelf of Books.” Mr. Mustard gave the presentation address. The Cicer- onians had a very laughable program. B. B. games. The last day for the girls to propose, the twenty-ninth; so go to it girls. Thus ends the second month in this year. MARCH March came in like a lion. The B. B. tournament was held at Garrett on Friday, on the second Monday morning only three teachers were left. Mr. Fee absent on ac¬ count of sickness. All hope for him back soon. The Zedaletheans challenged the Cic- eronians to a series of B. B. games. This came out about even. The winners were the Cicie boys and the Zeda girls. Mr. Mann from the Universal Institute gave a talk on character building. The Economics Class had a Clearing House, but it didn’t balance. The teachers had to go to a trial. Hurrah! No school. Rainy weather along with a new teacher—good weather for goose eggs. The literary contest was held at home school with great success for all. Mr. Fee is back, and says we gathered a lot of goose eggs while he was gone. Music recital. Mural won in county contest. One of our members left us. Myrtle Rohm married a former student of Waterloo High. March goes out like a lion. APRIL Rainy weather. Subscriptions for Rosebuds. Hindu spoke on the caste system of India which was very interesting. Invitations for Commencement were ordered. The annual is gradually being built step by step. We are wondering whether there will be anyone left for school so many were out with the flu. We get out for the baseball game at St. Joe. Valedictorian chosen which was June Campbell. Salutatorian was Claude Spackey. Agriculture boys went to Purdue. A Freshman boy breaks record by learning one hundred eight words in three hours from the “Lady of the Lake.” April ends with sunshine and showers. MAY Last month of school! Examinations approach silently but rapidly. Freshmen busy getting flowers for Herberium. Junior-Senior reception the eleventh. Examina¬ tions! Class play the eighteenth. Baccalaureate, Sunday the twentieth. Commence¬ ment Wednesday the twenty-third. Alumni meets this year. Reunion of old class¬ mates and new. This ends the Seniors last year in school. 1928 Page One Hundred Nine She Unarbuii T HERE are in¬ numerable details which enter into the printing, text and layout of Annuals, which cannot be gleaned from books or acquired from a series of lectures. “Tricks of the trade” we all call them; little things that the experienced eye is quick to ob¬ serve and the experienced hand quick to master. There are a thou¬ sand and one of them, seeming tri¬ fles in the printing of an Annual which can make or mar the finished book. Our long experience and specialization can reveal what they are and how to correct, improve and avoid them. a a a THE AUBURN PRINTING CO.
