Cowgor Donald Ferrec Frank H. Jones School Board The present School Board is composed c f men of wide experience in school affairs. Most of them were serving in llieir present capacity when the consolidated school district was organized four years ago. The present modern school building which we occupy is a credit to them and to the district they serve. Their continued re-election is ample evidence that the school patrons are pleased with the efficient way the school affairs arc being conducted. Continuation in office gives opportunity for a more intimate and comprehensive knowledge of the needs of the system, and makes possible the growth, efficiency and intelligent supervision that is required, as the system expands and serves more fully the growing needs of the district. The opening up of mines in this community has brought many new families, and more are coming, with a consequent increase of school attendance. This will present new difficulties and problems. It has been their constant aim to give the children of the district all the advantages of tin larger school systems, ami at the same time to conserve wisely tin funds that have been entrusted to their care. The Board is composed of: W. B. Fox, President; Alonzo Copeland; S. I . Cowgor; N. M. Leonard; Donald Ferree; Frank Jones, Secretary; Tom Mullins, Treasurer. Faculty Mary I).

Saying, “Would you the future see? Shall 1 move the years forward a decade. And show where each classmate shall bo? As a picture passing before me, Thr life of each was unrolled. liile speechless I gazed and pondered On all that the prophecy told.

Stutc of Iowa, being sound in hotly anti of disposing mind anti memory, do make, publish anti declare this writing to he our last will anti testament. Regarding such belongings as we have, by I lit sweat of our brows, the anguish of our souls or the brawn of our arms, accumulated in our school here. We dispose of the same as follows: To the Class of 1922: We leave the first three rows in the assembly, with the privilege (outside of school hours) of chewing all watls of gum found under these desks. We aim leave our gratles, especially those in deportment, for this seems to he tin only thing our successors lack. They have loyalty and any amount of class spirit, hut their deportment has always heen a minus quantity. To the Class of 1923: We leave them possessions, as far as they are capa- ble, of all vacancies necessitated by our departure, on the athletic teams and various activities. To the Class of 1921: They have just entered upon this life of pleasure and troubles and have taken up with enthusiasm this four-year race which will end in dishonor or glory for them just as they choose we leave a long, brilliant path to follow, wdiich is lighted by tin glamor of ’21's glory. in witness whereof, we. the Class of 1921, hereunto set our hand and seal this 26th dav of Mav, 1921.

As Juniors, they have passed the stage «:f the new recruit who quaked at the sight of Seniors, Faculty and others in high places. They have also left behind the period in which they were the all-wise Sophomore, wishing to he considered on a par with upper classmen, in every particular. As Juniors they are keeping step with school and its activities, anil are making good as loyal, studious members of the Class of FJ22, a credit to themselves and old W: II. S.

It is trut , we art' not as large a class as some, hut what we luck in quantity, is made up in quality. John Shoeman was elected captain of the Second Basket Ball team, an organization that has given the first team some mighty good practice. Then again the Sophomores were honored in having one of their number elected “veil leader.” But it was in the Declamatory Contest that the Sophomores excelled; out of the twelve who took part, eight were of the Class of 1923. We enjoyed two pleasant social events during the year; one being the reception we gave the Freshmen, and the other when we were entertained hy them. First.

Anyway, they are plain to he seen. The. year opened well, and the class was organized with the following officers: Charlie Forrett, president; Stanton Brumfield, vice-president; Grace Myers, secretary and treasurer. The colors, red and blue, were chosen. There is every evidence to prove that we are developing in brain power; our grades show that, however, some credit must he given the teachers. Then, too, we have an abundance of good common sense, a rare quality, and one which our high and lofty schoolmates in the upper classes would do well to emulate. It was one of our number, Grace Myers, who won first place in the local Declamatory contest ami second in the Dramatic Class at Valley Junction. Also you may recall that Maxwell Slaver pulled our Basket Ball team out of more than one tight place. First Row—Norman KoHcnliorgcr, .John Hanlon, (Mias. Forrett, Maxwell Staver.

()ur verdant color, too, will change— All things must have an end. We’ve borne with patience each new joke. From every Sophomore. We’re pressing on, so clear the way For Nineteen Twenty-four. Music in the High School has received more attention this year than formerly. Early in September two Glee Clubs were organized. I lie Hoys Glee Cluh started out well, and there was considerable enthusiasm, hut the heavy school program prevented the practice necessary to success; however, this organization is far from being a dead issue the renewed activity on the part of the hoys in music making it worthy of special mention. 'I hey are coming in on the home stretch and are to In heard from. 'Flu Girls Glee Club under the skilful leadership of Miss Koma Sater has had a very successful year. Forty-four members are enrolled. They have •not for practice regularly the second period every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. Quite a number of new songs have been learned. They have furnished special music for the various sessions of the Parent-Teacher Association. as well as for the special concerts that have been held from lime to lime during the school year. The greater part of the second semester has been spent in practicing for a special Glee Club Concert, which is to he one of the series of Commencement events. (tilths (ShKK (Mil'll hoys’ cjlkk ri.ru Band and Orchestra In November was formed two oilier musical organizations, of which we feel justly proud. Namely, the Waukee School Band and the High School Orchestra. Mr. Jeffers, who was the leader, had remarkable success in teaching beginners how to play, and within a few weeks we were appearing in public. Each ednesday has been band practice day. and steady improvement has been made from time to time. There are more than thirty members in the organization, most of whom are pupils in the school. However, a few of the Alumni are lending valuable assistance. During the summer the band is to give weekly concerts in town, due to the backing of our enterprising business men. Prof. Sly look charge of the Band and Orchestra in March and is proving a very successful leader. The Sel mol Orchestra of twenty pieces is purely a school organization; it has been working hard and has made great progress. Several of the school programs have been brightened by the music furnished by our High School Orchestra. We are expecting great things from these musical organizations during the coming year.

Much thought was given to preparation for the Declamatory Contest, which was helil in the school auditorium Friday. January 29th. Competent judges were secured from Des Moines and Valley Junction, and a large audience was in attendance. All of the contestants did remarkably well, anil are deserving of praise, hut the one given first place by the judges was Grace Myers; Josephine Kitehell was given second place. At the Suh-district Contest at Valley Junction, Grace was awarded second place in the Dramatic class. The program of the home contest follows: brigade March ...................................

School Orchestra Athletics Before lhe close of the last school year, through the courtesy of llie enterprising citizens of ankec. another tennis court was laid out. which has created renewed interest in this game. Spirited contests an held every evening when the weather permits. Last year's haschall team made a good record, and closed the season hy defeating Grimes in a decisive game that left no douht as to tin supremacy of oiXr team. Flic way the fellows are turning out for practice this spring gives 11s every reason to believe that Y ankec will maintain its good record. Tin schedule this year includes games with Adel, Grime , Dallas Center and “Amos Hiatt Junior High of Des Moines. FIRST I?ASKKT HAM. TKA.M Slinnpo:i. Htaver, Clayton, Crispin, Snyi|t r, Aldrich It is in Basket Ball, however, that Vankec excels. Glair Snyder was easily the star of last year's team, and we were all disappointed when we learned lie was not to In in school this year. Early in November we secured the services of ■''Bud ’ Knox as coach, and later “Chic” Lentz served in this capacity. They were successful in developing one of tin be t team Watikee ha ever turned out. We think they have made a wonderful record this year, winning thirteen games and losing only two. The members of the team were: Shannon and Crispin, the never-failing guards; Slaver, (daytor. and Snyder, tin loyal forwards, and Aldrich, tile incredible center. We, the Basket Ball team, highly appreciate the enthusiasm shown toward us hy the town and cemmunitv. and as all the members of the team except Slaver graduate this year, we sincerely hope that the team of 1(J--will keep up the record of the school, and we also hope that the community will stand hy the team, as wc are sure they will.

The score was 20-1 in our favor. The splendid team work of Waiikee won the game. No more games were played until January 21, when wc returned the game with Adel. It wa a hard fought battle ail the way through hut ended in our favor with a score of 8-6. A week later we went to Dallas Center, where we met our first defeat of the season, the scon being 17-9. School was closed for two weeks on account of smallpox and vaccination. Owing to this fact we did not get to practice and lost our next game with Adel by a score of 11-8. The 12th of March we went to tin Girls' Basket Ball tournament at Drake I niversity, where we wen matched with Sheffield. Altho' our good fortune seemed to have deserted us, we put up a good fight. The score was 13-6 in favor of Sheffield. On March 16th, we played Ariel at Adel.

Manual Training Waukcc can lioast of a splendidly equipped Manual Training department, and under the skillful management of Miss Gleaves, is making itself felt in the community. Manual training has an important educational value. The training of the hand, and development of skill, when co-ordinated with other knowledge is very desirable. The students are taught methods of using, handling and caring for tools: the making of different useful articles, involving various problems. The development of artistic tastes, and opportunities for ingenuity and originality are afforded. In laying out the course the aim has been t« make it as practical as possible. The boys have shown a keen interest in their work and the lime allotted for this part of the school program is all too short, for not infrequently the noon hour and after school finds the boys busy in the shop. Flic projects they have turned out are a credit to themselves anil their instructor as well. We hope that this department may lie enlarged in the near future to include elementary instruction in the use of the forge, harness repairing, etc. During the month of March a bird-house contest was held which created much interest and enthusiasm. Many unique and useful designs were offered by both boys and girls. The judges had a difficult time in awarding the prize for the best one, but tile decision was finally made in favor of Gerald Curler. teWANIA® Domestic Science and Art The Domestic Science department has had another successful year. I he noon lunch has keen the big feature of the year’s work. We doulit if many schools of the size of Waukee can boast of a cafeteria so largely patronized, and where such a variety of well-cooked dishes is offered at sm'li a nominal price. In spite of the attention given to this phase of the work, none of the problems incident to this department have been neglected. The carlv part of the year was devoted to millinery, the elementary principles of the art being studied. Each girl made for herself a hat, doing all the trimming and designing herself, under the direction of their competent instructor. Miss Pearl Sims, after which a demonstration was given before a regular meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association, to the delight of all those present. The St. Patrick’s Dav dinner given to the faculty by the members of this department was an event long to be remembered, and showed the careful training the girls had received, not only in planning and preparing a meal id' this sort, Iml in serving it as well.

SPANISH CLUB SOM K OP OCR PLAVC!l!()rNI ACT IV IT IKS Moving Pictures A Waukee school annual would not Ik- complete without some mention made of our moving picture venture. In May of last year we purchased a modern moving picture machine and almost continuously since, on Saturday evenings, have given moving picture entertainments in the gymnasium of the school. From a financial standpoint il has been a success. The equipment has not onlv been paid for from the proceeds, hut it has added materially to our fund for playground equipment. Then il has furnished clean entertainment for the community, for nothing of a questionable character has been permitted to appear on the screen. Hook reviews have been given from time to time to co-ordinate with the work of the English classes. Among the above are: “A Talc of Two Cities,” “Freckles. “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm,” Huckleberry Finn,” “I,os Miserablcs,” Anne of Green Gables,” “Little Women,” “Evangeline.” In addition to these many of the finest pictures obtainable at any price have been shown, ineluding those by the following well-known moving picture stars: Wallace Reid, Douglas Fairbanks, Cha-s.

It was a ten weeks' course, and fifteen men were enrolled, with Mr. Bender, graduate of the Minnesota State Agricultural School as instructor. At different times lectures were offered by specialists sent out from Ames. Work in soils. Farm Bookkeeping and Arithmetic, Animal Husbandry, Manual Training and Kngine Kcpair was offered. 'Phis work proved so successful and far-reaching in its results that we are hopeful that this experiment may he repeated fur next year on a larger scale.

Alumni Jn the year 1900, under the supervision of Prof. Harrows, a class of four stepped out of sehool life into life, hearing the distinction of being the first graduates of the Waukee High Sehool. They felt the need of a tie; something by which they could link themselves to the sehool they were so reluctantly bidding adieu, and lo! the Alumni Association was organized. Every year since that time, with the exception of the years 1901 and 1917, when there were no classes, the alumni has been strengthened by the addition of new members. At present mintucring ninety-three. The alumni has seen Waukee outgrow two school buildings, from a small frame structure lo a more pretentious brick building, to be replaced by the present beautiful edifies . It was during a meeting ssf the alumni tbs- first mention of the possibility of a consolidated school for Waukee was made. Today the present school building stands as a memento to the untiring efforts of some of the alumni members, combined with that of the citizens of the community. As is always the case, when young people complete their high school course, we see them seeking fields of service in distant climes. Some of our members have located in our largest cities, and have become successful business men. Olliers have beard the call of the far north and went forth lo seek their fortunes there. Japan offers golden opportunities to others. In a far distant land under the Southern Cross, we find some of otir members devoting their lives to the cause of missions. And then we have our “close at home, faithful members, who have stood by from the time we were organized, who rejoiced in the days of prosperity. and who gave a helping band during the dark, stormy days who'll the life of the alumni was threatened for want of enthusiasm and funds. Hut regardless id geographical location a commencement day never rolls around bill the alumni member recalls the commencement day when be or she was an ambitious vouth or a sweet girl graduate.

It was originally probably' the most beautiful and prized of all the vast estates of the late Oliver W. Mead, of Boston, Mass., and one of the last to he relinquished. Then it became noted for its fast horses. Since the present management has assumed charge of it, its Polled Hcrcfords have gone to forty different states and to Australia. We maintain one of the best known herds of Polled Ilere-fords in the country today. Wc can supply stock worthy to compete in the best live stock expositions and individuals have made creditable showing at Chicago’s International. We can also do our hit to ‘Swat the Scrub’ and offer good breeding stock at figiirc-s within reach of the every-dav farmer and neighbor. Let us know your wants and ask for prices. We also produce registered Percheron Horses. If you need seed slock see what home breeders produce, before looking farther. M. M. LEONARD Manager A. W.
