Perhaps it is with some assumption that we under- take this work, since no other class in the history of the school has seen fit to make such an attempt, but we feel a need for some memorandum of our school days, and trust that to some, at least, this little volume may bring pleasant memories.

' 13-' 14 (0ur iFantltu The greatest bug-bear in the school world, to me. Is that renowned bunch known as the Faculty; They try to look wise and they wear a great frown. They always have dignity mixed with renown. Whatever I do and whatever 1 say. Miss Von always says. That it isn't the way. And whene’er I say. Well. I really don’t know—” She then says, Why don’t you. I’d just like to know. Prof. Marcrum comes in looking wicked no doubt And bringing right with him a long hickory sprout. The Freshies, the Sophs and thejuniors turn pale— But what Senior cares for a teacher’s old flail? There comes Mr. Owens with blood in his eye. And my! he looks fierce as he goes prancing by. And then in a voice from the depths of his heels. He talks and he lectures and makes great long spiels. Then in comes Miss Spencer, a frown on her brow And says. We’ll have order, have order right now! But never a smile on your countenance must show— Or right on the green carpet, there’s where you’ll go. Another of them is Professor Racquet Who scolds us and moulds us through all the long day; There’s no use to worry when he enters in For he’ll call you down if you’re working like sin. Then there is Miss Marcrum who thinks she can cook. The girls all must wash. cook, and keep a note book, If one should not answer her every demand Right then is the time when that girl would be “canned. Our music teacher is one great sight to see She teaches us scales of W, X. Y and Z, If she gives you fifty, you’ll be doing well. Of course you’ll know her. she’s Miss McCampbell. Then there’s Miss McCool with her paint box and brush. She makes all the students just hustle and rush. If they don’t quite mind her she tells them what’s what. And then she just whips them, as quick as a shot. Dear Teachers, if only I’d heed their advice. And sit still and study, be quiet and nice I’d grow to be brilliant, I just bet I would— But then, what’s the use of forever bein’ good? —Roberta Burford, ’15. (!Dur (Eufitnftian Yes, I know a man and his word is like gold. And he sings as he goes to and fro. Keeping fire in the basement and sweeping the rooms At the house where the children all go. Oh! his smile gives us hope, an example he makes. And his song keeps us glad, don’t you know! For he's happy and cheerful each hour of the day. At the house where the children all go. With some tools he mends anything that goes wrong. And he keeps the whole house like ’twas new. If you watch him. and follow the pattern he makes You'll succeed with your work when it’s through. Then we should be prompt, in whatever we do. Always cheerful and happy and so; If we work, if we wait, we’ll be more like the one. Who cares for the place where the children all go. —Margaret Peck.

The morning the story opens found the girl and her mother sitting on the front porch dis- cussing her graduation outfit. Mrs. Jackson said. You know my dear, we cannot afford as expensive an outfit as your chum’s. I have just decided to get some white mull. “Well, mother. was the reply. If we put it in the hands of a good dressmaker it can be made up very prettily. That is what I wanted to talk to you about, for we must make it ourselves. As Eavyln knew it was useless to argue with her mother, she submitted. The next week, after the dress was finished, some girls came to call on Eavyln. When she had shown them her dress with the Battenberg trimming. Lucile Walton thought it would be a good chance to tease her. so she said: Well, well! won’t the Professor be pleased when he sees you so radiant? All the girls joined in the chorus, saying: Oh! yes. won't he though. Eavyln blushed, but did not dispute their words. The next evening found Eavyln on the front porch in a brown study. “1 wonder who will miss me most when I graduate, and how the dear old college will look when I come home from teaching at Christmas time? Yes. it is right! One’s greatest pleasure is school life, and 1 am leaving it forever. Some of my dearest friends, too, she mused, and a picture of Thomas Moore came before her eyes. “Do I really care. I wonder? she asked aloud. Professor Moore came up the steps slowly and softly. A penny for your thoughts. Miss Jackson! Eavyln drew herself up with a start. I hope they were pleasant ones, he continued. “Oh yes. both pleasant and otherwise. I like the idea of graduating, and then again—oh! I miss my friends so much. I suppose, he said, “you know of my proposed trip to Paris? It has been the wish of my heart ever since I has a young fellow, and now my wish is to be fulfilled. “Oh! I knew it would be that way. said Eavyln. “we will both travel in different ways after commencement. You will be absent a long time? Your travels will be no doubt very inter- esting. with new scenery and new friends.” “I have no desire to exchange old friends for new ones; 1 want no better ones than I have here. My greatest hope is that wherever I go I may think of one dear friend who is waiting my return. May I have this assurance. Miss Jackson? Eavyln nodded and the matter was thus settled. That night Eavyln said to her mother. “Well, dearest mother, when my college days are over we will (each and as long as we love each other we will be happy. Long after Eavyln had retired her mother sat thinking of those words. Some day she would have to give up her child as many mothers have done before, but with a prayer for contentment she turned her thoughts elsewhere. One day soon after this. Eavyln's friends called and paid her many compliments. Just as they were leaving, Eavyln said, laugh- ingly. You are all very kind. I'll remember you when I send out the invitations. “Oh, we’ll be there with the presents all right!” was the answer. Then Mrs. Jackson said. Time enough for the presents. The invitations are not out yet. Commencement day dawned bright and warm. The Jackson family was busy; so busy that the young man who called to leave flowers could not attract their attention, so he placed the forget- me-nots on the table and departed unnoticed. Attached to the bouquet was a sealed note, in which the sender revealed his affections (as discovered afterwards), and ask- ing the young lady to wear the flowers if she returned the same. Eavyln's cousins were visiting her and the youngest one wandered about aimlessly in the hope of finding something to amuse her. She spied the flowers and straightway took the for- get-me-not bouquet, it being the smallest, out into the yard with her. Seeing a white kitten, she threw the bouquet, note and all down on the ground. Alas! The flowers that would have brought such happiness to two hearts lay withered and forgotten and the note was carried away by the breeze. Eavyln came down shortly afterwards dressed in her snowy white gown, to ask the approval of her mother, who said. “You look like a princess, but you ought to have some flowers.” “All right, was the reply and soon a small bouquet of white roses was pinned in place. The Professor, who sat in the corner, noticed this but said nothing and. the commencement exercises over, he was soon on his way to Paris. He was by no means a happy man. Two ques- tions, which he could not answer, came to his mind. Why did Eavyln scorn his flowers? and “Did she have another suitor? “It would be much easier. he thought to himself, “if he could only see her occasionally. Now let us see Eavyln's view of the affair. She fully expected to see the Professor that evening and was sitting on the porch waiting when one of her friends. Esther Frank, came up and said, You poor dear. I just came to give you a word of cheer, because your dear friend, the Professor, is gone. But, of course, he must have sent you some words of hope to cheer you during his absence. Eavyln was glad the twilight hid her flush of surprise, for she had not heard till now that the Professor was gone. Esther soon left and Eavlyn was glad for the chance to slip to her room unnoticed. Why had the Professor gone without calling? Perhaps he would soon write a note of explanation. With this thought in mind Eavyln fell asleep. The next morning her mother said: “I am anxious about you, Eavyln dear, you look ill. Only a little nervous, was the reply. What are your plans for the future, mother? I want to hear them. Well, daughter. I was just thinking of a visit to Heyl’s country home. We will have a good long rest on the farm, for I think we are both badly in need of it. Yes. you are right. I need a long rest before the strenuous task of teaching begins. So the matter was settled and Eavyln was left to her own thoughts once more. She was glad for a change of scenery and air: perhaps then she could forgive and forget. A day was spent in packing and then Eavyln and her mother were on their way to the country. I he summer waned and autumn followed, but still Eavyln heard no word from the Professor. One evening at a party given at the Heyl home in honor of their guests. Eavyln was engaged in a conversation with a young man. Mr. John Walker, who said: Are you the Miss Jackson to whom I delivered the forget-me-nots on commencement day? Eavyln said: I received flowers that day. but no forget-me-nots. Who sent them? Professor Moore, of course. I am sure he explained in the note. “That is strange, for I never received the note or the flowers. Who answered the bell? ’’No one, was the reply. I walked in and put them with the other flowers as I could attract no one’s attention. Well, perhaps. I can unravel the mystery after 1 get home.” But the mystery remained unsolved and no trace of note or flowers could be found. John Walker tried in vain to get the address of Professor Moore, but at last gave up the search. Mean- while. Thanksgiving came and went, and so came the Christmas gayety. but Eavyln grew more despondent every day. After the cold weather passed the balmy air of spring some what revived the girl’s spirit. On just such a refreshing spring day- as we have all experienced. Eavyln sat in her favorite nook, but she was not reading Just one year ago since the Professor had been sit- ting there with her. Had his past year been spent pleasantly and would she ever find the note which had caused so much trouble? The breeze blew gently in her face, the birds sang a sweet lullaby. Slowly the tired head sank and Eavyln was in slumberland. She slept some time and was suddenly aroused by her mother calling. Eavyln. dear, there, is some to see you. As Eavyln fully expected to see Esther Frank, who had come from the city to visit. she said. Oh. my dear! 1 am so glad to see you. I am---------------- But the sentence was never finished, for there before her stood Professor Moore. He came forward with extended hands, saying. “That is worth coming across the sea for. “Oh! but I thought it was Esther Frank. confessed Eavyln. But it is not Esther this time. Are you going to send me away again? When did I send you away? Please explain.” Well, why didn’t you wear my flowers?” Your friend, Mr. Walker, just told me a few weeks ago. Then followed a long explanation, but neither could imagine what became of the note. The Professor said: Now tell me. Eavyln. would you have worn those flowers if you had received them? I surely would.” was the reply. Some minutes later, when Mrs. Jackson passed the door and saw the two in earnest conversation, she guessed the secret. Well. 1 can’t expect to keep her all my life.” and she silently wiped away a tear. The wedding was announced in a short time. The invitations. which had been promised to the girls, were given, and Mr. Walker, the Heyl family, a few other friends with whom we are not ac- quainted. were not forgotten. The bridal flowers, as may be sup- posed. since they have played such an important part, were forget- me-nots. A few weeks later. Professor Moore and his happy bride went to Paris on their honeymoon PAUL WHELCHEL, 16. (Eutfl Qkmrs of (Eltrrkrrn ELVIN was on a railway train with his grandfather. They were great chums. When Melvin was very small he was cross, and no one cared for him except his mother and grandfather. When he grew older very restless One day as he and his grandfather were riding on the train, he grew very restless after riding for several hours. He was tired looking at the scenery; he wondered why grown folks need make such a fuss about it. Grandfather was in- dulgent in most things, but he did not approve of gum, so Melvin felt obliged to close his fingers tightly over the nickel in his pocket as he wanted to invest when the gum boy passed through the car. Pretty soon they stopped at a big city station and a procession of boys tramped along the aisle, crying their wares. What’s that?” grandfather cried sharply. Checkerboard did you say?” A boy with a basket on his arm halted. There wasn’t a sign of anything as large as a checker board about him. Yes, sir. Here you are. sir. With that he produced an envelope, took a long packet of heavy cardboard out of it, unfolded the two leaves, and there was a checkerboard, all nicely marked in squares. “Well! well! grandfather said. I have never seen the like of that. And the men? Here, sir,” with a sly glance at Melvin, They’ll please the lit- tle fellow, sir, and we always sell two sets in one box in case of ac- cident. The boy smiled as he opened the box, and in an instant thrust it under the grandfather's nose. Grandfather took one whiff and exclaimed again: Well! well le became we 11 have the whole outfit. My grandson and I are both fond of the game, and I fancy this will suit us to the notch. He laughed in a hearty fashion and drew some change from his vest pocket. “It will be only an hour and a half before we reach home. he said to Melvin. There'll be time for two games maybe. Don’t think these men should hold out for more than two games. Melvin looked surprised, then he too raised the box and took a smell. Wh-y! he exclaimed, that’s jolly fun. Wide awake was Melvin now. and no more figets. Which game shall we play, Melvin, straight checkers or give away? Whatever of these men you take off of the board you keep, remember. Grandfather’s eyes twinkled, and he made a significant gesture. Melvin s eyes twinkled also; he knew what grandfather meant. Oh, I’ll keep ’em. never you fear. Let’s play straight checkers first, ’cause that’s your game. All right, grandson, but do your best. They began playing the game, pushing the dark and white men back and forth over most puzzling routes. Melvin’s face was all wrinkled, trying to outwit his grandfather. Then all at one jump- ety-jump would go a man over one of his men, when he had not seen there was any danger. You do take them so fast, grandfather. said Melvin. Lucky there’s two sets of men.” grandfather said, for most of these have disappeared. Now it’s your turn, grandson,” Melvin enjoyed playing give away, because then he could sweep the board. In the other game grandfather seldom lost a man, but in this his men seemed to leap into places where they had to be jumped. Sometimes three or four at a move—criss-cross, every which way. It didn't take half so long as the other. Melvin kept busy picking off the men and keeping them. He fancied that was winning the game. When the two games were over there were only six men in sight. Melvin was a little sober over the havoc, but grandfather folded the board, saying: We’ll keep this, and there’s plenty of places where we can buy some more men.” Melvin’s mother was waiting for them; very glad to see her son and his grandfather safely home from their journey. There was a delicious dinner prepared, with many things both the travelers liked. But somehow Melvin didn't care much for his dinner, and grandfather didn’t feel very hungry either. They both went to bed early, tired no doubt, from their long day's journey. About midnight, Melvin’s mother was aroused on account of his illness. She saw a light in grandfather's room, and opening the door learned that he was ill. I didn't mean to make so much noise to disturb you.” said grandfather. You didn't disturb,” she answered. Melvin is sick, what have you both been eating?” I didn't suppose peppermint and chocolate men could hurt anybody. The old man spoke rather helplessly, for he was ex- pecting a scolding from his daughter-in-law. Peppermint men! Chocolate men! He saw her perplexity and exclaimed: I bought a game of checkers on the train. Melvin and I played two games. The men were candies—peppermint for white and chocolate for black. We ate them as fast as we jumped them. Ate them! Pray tell how many you ate?” About two dozen apiece. There were two whole sets. Mel- vin had his full share. I thought peppermints were wholesome.” answered grandfather. Wholesome! Three or four may be. but no candies are wholesome by the dozen. However, I'm relieved that it's nothing worse. You 11 both be all right by morning. The next morning they both looked rather pale, and grand- father whispered to his grandson: “Next time. Melvin, my grand- son. we'll play only one game.” NORA PAYNE. '16. (Earning a Uifr ATRICK MAHONEY! didn’t I tell yez ter swape the mud from yer fate when yez be a earnin’ in the front way?

Yez don t care how hard Oi work, fer if yez did yez surely would help me to kape the house clane.’’ This was the reception that Kitty Mahoney gave her husband when he came home for dinner. Her red hair seemed on fire and her blue eyes seemed black, while poor Pat, who was so large and strong looking, trembled like a child. All he could say in such an emergency was, Now Kitty, darlin, yez know I didn t mane it, when she would break out a afresh. Today he hurriedly ate his dinner and went up to the only store in town to do some loafing, which was his chief occupation. Here he met his friend, Mike Finnigan. “Well Moike, he said. Oi’ve aften came to yez in me troubles an here I bay agin. “Why, what’s the matter this toime? asked Mike. “Matter enuff. answered Pat, Me wife s tongue s loose at both ends an' tied in the middle an lately Oi can t inter the house ’thout Oi get a rakin’ fer som’ thin.’ A stranger who happened to hear this remark, said. Now mebbe ye’d loike ter use the rimidy Oi used on me own woife. Any how Oi’ll jist tell yez what it wus.” He then told them how he had brought his wife into subjection. When he had finished. Pat and Mike went in search of a dictionary. When they found one they spent an hour or two pouring over it. “Now.” Pat finally said. Jist yez watch the next toime me wife jumps on me and jist yez see how Oi manage ’er. “Well Oi hope yez succade, answered Mike. “Yez will too if yez don’t let ’er blarney yez out.” Pat and Mike started down the street towards Pat’s home. When they reached it, Mike said. Now Pat. yez go wan in an’ Oi’ll wait some place 'round here till yez came back. Pat had no sooner entered the house than his wife began, “Here yez bay now. how do”_______________ “What do yez mane,” interrupted Pat, “Ye raspberry ranti- pole by jumpin’ on me loike thot?

Some nitrogenious probabilists and prismatic proullarians can blas- pheme their husbands but Oi’m goin' ter check yez in yer negrifi- cation of me ' Here he paused for breath, but poor Kitty was too surprised and stupefied to say a word. She could not imagine what all these big words meant, and she stood waiting, with open mouth, to hear what else he had to say. Pat was thinking what he should say next, while taking a moment to regain his breath, at last he began again. Bein -a mythologist as yez are, yez can scarcely imagine the inculpatory ingurgiation, the dialectic Mormonism and the conglomerated globosity going on in Ireland. For that rason Oi m going to lave Ireland, lave the patronage of yez, my dromedary and yoke-fellow an’ Oi 'm going ter America terday.” With that he left the room and started in search of Mike, who was easily found. When Mike saw Pat, he said. “Faith Pat! an’ how’d yez make it} Pat told him all about it,but said that he didn’t know what to do next. Mike suggested that they go up town and stay for awhile. They went up town and stayed for about half an hour, then started back to see what Kitty was doing. Mike remarked that she had probably gone over to his house to tell Norah, his wife, about her troubles. At this suggestion they directed their steps toward Mike's home. When they neared the kitchen door they were attracted by the sound of voices within. Pat recognized the sound of his wife’s voice. Between sobs she was telling Norah some of the brutal names by which Pat had addressed her and about his leave taking. She was lamenting the fact that now she would have to take in washings for a livelihood. This thought horrified her and burying her face in her apron she began sobbing afresh. As soon as she could control her sobs sufficiently, she said, “Och Norah! Oi hev’ trated him badly an’ Oi desarve a good thrashin’. Oi do! Och! Oi’d bay nice to him for iver afther if he’d ownly come back to me.” Now Pat and Mike thought this would be a good time to make themselves known. Accordingly they stepped inside the door and Pat said. Kitty darlin’ do yez railly mane thot?” Kitty never thought of his hearing her saying that or she would not have said it. As it was. however, she saw no way of unsaying it. so she replied. “Yis Pat. OiMl promise ter bay as good as pos- sible if yez’ll only stay at home with me. but Pat what did all those things yez called me. mane?” Now here is where Pat thought it would be best to go home and there finish making it up with each other and when they got home, he told her that all those names simply meant that she was the dearest and sweetest little wife that ever lived. HAZEL LAWSON. A Jlrinr? in iiagmar JUST won’t stay at their horrid’old school, so I won’t. I think they’re mean, and I won’t stand it.” This is the exclamation that burst forth from the little heap of feminine humanity curled up on the ground at the base of the knarled old apple tree in the garden back of the board- ng school, it had been just three days since Marybelle Hurst, just out of a small village high school, had come to Miss Brown’s Sum- mer School for Girls. She had slipped away and now sat under the apple tree which had sheltered her from the hot sun of the bright June day. Her brown curly hair was blown about her face and her hat lay upside down at her feet. If I could just go home,” she said, I would stay there forever and I’d never see a boarding school again.” What a very bad mood you’re in for such a fine day,” said a voice near her. Starting suddenly, and looking up. Mary- belle looked into the face of a handsome young man whom she recognized immediately as a distant relative of her mother whom she had not seen for years. Great was her surprise and she cried, excitedly, Why, Arthur, is it you? It’s been so long since I’ve seen you! What brought you here? How did you know I was here? How did you come?” ‘‘Not so many questions at a time. Marybelle,” said the young man, quietly, “I’ll answer them at some more convenient time. It seems that I have come just in time to save you from spoiling your face with a great shower of tears. And now, if you are so anxious to get away from your ‘horrid old school,’ what do you say to my offer of a ride home in my car that is standing just beyond the garden fence? And you‘11 be home to your mother in less than three hours.” Marybelle's big brown eyes grew bigger than ever and sparkled mischievously as she exclaimed. “Oh, what fun that will be! To run away from school in your automobile!” But she suddenly became sober again, and added, ‘‘But how will I escape the eyes of so many girls and prim old teachers?” “Oh, that will be fun.” said Arthur, “You can run down through the garden and then we’ll be gone before any school teacher can see us.” The boarding house, where many of the girls and teachers stayed, was in front of the garden where they stood, and back of this garden was the road where Arthur’s machine was waiting and which they could follow to go out in the country and home. The plans were made quickly and. with a loud laugh, which would have made the sedate Miss Brown almost faint, Marybelle ran toward the house, through the kitchen, up a back stairway, and into her room. She hurriedly crammed her few belongings into a suit case, and in less than three minutes she was ready for her ride. Cautiously opening the door, she looked out to see if anyone was coming down the corridor. She shrank back into the room again as she spied the dreaded Miss Brown coming primly down the corridor. She waited quietly until the teacher’s footsteps died away, then she hurriedly came out of the room and locked the door. She ran softly through the hall and slipped down the back stairway and into the kitchen. Here she ran squarely against the good old colored cook, who threw up her hands in amazement and exclaimed. “Why, laws a massy, honey, wha’ you goin?” Marybelle's spirits fell decidedly and she tried to find an answer. At last she stammered. Why-why-oh! Aunt Hannah, don’t ask me, but take this and don’t tell Miss Brown-and-and- goodbye!” And with this she tossed her a piece of money and fled, leaving the old woman standing with her hands on her hips and gazing after her wonderingly. Meanwhile Marybelle ran through the garden as fast as her small feet could carry her, and as she jumped into the machine, she exclaimed, “Oh, Arthur, hurry, before I change my mind. Running off isn't as funny as I thought it would be. Arthur took his place behind the wheel and off they went. A group of girls standing at the bend in the road gazed at them wonderingly, but Marybelle only threw them a laughing “goodbye. Marybeile's spirits rose again as they sped on into the beauti- ful country and before they had gone many miles she was talking excitedy. “Why, Arthur,” she cried, this is just like stories I used to read of princes rescuing princesses from a mighty giant and taking them home. You are the prince, I’m the princess, and Miss Brown is the awful giant.” Arthur blushed, but immediately began to tell her of his home far away in the mountains and of the good times he had there. “And, Marybelle,” he added, “the only thing I need to make me happy is-----,” but so interested was Arthur in the young person beside him that he did not notice the bend in the road and his words were cut off as the light car swerved and crashed into the bank. The next thing Marybeile realized, she was lying in her bed in her own room at home and her mother was sitting near her. Not a word of reproach did she receive for her pranks and she was happy in her mother’s forgiveness. In the days that followed Marybelle had much time to build air-castles, but the only castle that she could think about was that small one in the mountains—and the prince was there, too.

MARGARET PECK. 15. itomratir In the year 1912 a law was passed which requires Domestic Science to be taught in all high schools and seventh and eighth grades. It is compulsory in the latter, but given as an elective sub- ject in the high school. Domestic Science means knowledge of the home, and teaches economy. Many girls have the opportunity to study it while in school who probably wouldn’t have at home. Every girl comes in contact with the things it teaches some time in life, therefore it is necessary for her to know them. This subject was brought into this school in the fall of 1913. It has been very successful. The first year fifty-eight girls took it, each receiving two credits for their two terms’ work. The room is located in the basement, and contained at first three large tables, each girl having an individual drawer, a sink, one range, china closet, one blackboard and a desk for the teacher. There is also a pantry which adjoins this room. The girls, with the aid of the teacher, who has been here both years, gave several socials, and with the money helped to equip the Domestic Science room. They bought a set of dishes, individual equipment for the desks, and had a large apron rack made. With the fifty cent labratory dues paid by each girl every term, the ma- terial was furnished for cooking. At the end of the year 1914-15, white enamel tables were furnished by the township. The first year’s course consists of Household Decorations, Laundry, How to Serve, House Work and the study and cooking of, Eggs, Beverages. Cereals. Vegetables, Fruits. Pastry, Baking Powder Mixtures and Cakes. The second year's course consists of Hygiene. Home Nursing, House Furnishings and the study and cooking of, Fruits (canning also). Custards, Soups. Salads, Invalid Cookery, Desserts, Gelatine Dishes, Ice Cream, Candy. Meats and Puddings. Sixty girls are taking Domestic Science this year, receivng the same amount of credits as before. Two forty-minute periods per week are given to lectures and three eighty-minute periods per week are given to cooking. Owing to the lack of equipment, sewing was not taught until the last of this year. The last two months were devoted to sewing. It is hoped that next year a course of sewing will be taught as well as the course of cooking. Since more equipment is being purchased and the interest in this work is growing more and more, the future is bright for Domestic Science in the Waveland school. BEATRICE CARRINGTON. Class in Domestic Science watching a demonstration of measuring. I Agriculture GRICULTURE in some form or other has been taught in our school for a number of years, but was not organized as a regular department until the fall term of 1913. During the late summer of '13 the township trustee. Mr. Fullenwider. secured Mr. Raquet to organize the work in Agri- culture so it would appeal to the pupils from the practical stand- point and be really worth while. Following the above suggestions it was planned to take up the special phases of Agriculture rather than treat it as a general subject, thus enabling a student to get enough of that special line so that he could apply his knowledge in a practical way. It was also planned to make the laboratory periods and field excursions an important part of the work and to break away from the text book idea as much as possible. It was decided to give three forty- minute periods to recitation, discussions or lectures and two eighty- minute periods per week to laboratory and field work. Accordingly the Freshman class was given Practical Botany and Horticulture during the school year of 13-14. The main idea in the botany work was to get the pupils to understand the conditions necessary to the growth of plants, how growth is carried on and something about the lower groups of plants as they effect man from an economical standpoint. Vegetable gardening was emphasized in the horticulture work but fruits received due consideration. A hot bed was made and some practical work in pruning fruit trees, shade trees, bush fruits and grapes was done. Twenty-five pupils finished this course. An elective course in Horticulture and Farm Crops was offered to the boys of the three upper grades. Fifteen boys enrolled for this and did good work. The work in Horticulture was similar to that given to the Freshmen class and in the farm crops, suitable crops and varieties of each seed bed preparation, and cultivation were ehiphasized. During the past year the first course was given again with a few minor changes. Only the boys of the first year took the work and all the work in Horticulture was devoted to pomology. The propagation, care, fruiting habits, pruning, suitable varieties and harv- esting of fruits were given due consideration. Harmful insects, spraying and pruning, were especially emphasized and much more practical work done than ever before. The elective work was devoted to Animal Husbandry, Dairy- ing and Poultry. Eighteen boys enrolled for the work and sixteen completed the course. Types and breeds of farm animals were studied and especial emphasis given to feeding different kinds of stock. The laboratory work consisted in judging live stock, testing milk, cream and other dairy products. Next year the two years work will be continued but the elective subjects will be Soils and Crops Surely such work should appeal to the farmers of our com- munity, and if any one thinks that the work is not worth while we invite him to visit the class and hear the discussions or witness one of the demonstrations. JniUuttrial Arta HE department of Manual Training was organized at the same time that the department of Agriculture was and with the same instructor in charge, The same ideas were carried out in regard to making the work of practical benefit to the boys of our community. It is not the intention to make carpenters or cabinet makers of the boys, but to teach them how to use, sharpen and care for the more common tools. During the school year of ’I3-’ 14. two classes were organized. Each class had ten boys in it, and some of the things made were as follows: farm ladders, chicken brooders, butter molds, butter mixer. sSel ves, tooth brush holders, towel racks, hat racks, farm gates, etc All the above projects were made from working drawings made by the boys from patterns or blue prints furnished by the instructor. During the past school year only a few boys have been able to take tee woik owing to a crowded program, but nevertheless some good work has been done. Play ground apparatus, library tables, dressing room for basket ball boys, agricultural apparatus, library shelves, book racks, etc., are some of the projects finished. Next year it ic hoped to have at least one class of ten boys do- ing work in this department, for we really believe that every boy should be taught to saw straight, drive a nail and sharpen a chisel or plane as well as to know mathematics, history or Latin.

KATHRYN FULLENWIDER ROBERTA BURFORD Gdt? donft Will €� nridtj HE GOOD WILL SOCIETY was organized in the fall of 1912. All the girls in High School joined the socie- ty and helped to support it. During its three years of existence it has been instrumental in bringing happi- ness to many children as well as to the older people of Waveland. The citizens have been very generous in the support of the work which this society has taken up. Without this support the society could do but little. It has been the chief function of the society to give toys, candy and useful presents to the less fortunate of Waveland’s citizens. At Christmas time one of the most encouraging features of this work is the appreciation shown by those who are helped. On the afternoon of last December 4, about sixty children as- sembled in the fourth grade room of the school building to see San- ta Claus. They were not disappointed. He came loaded with presents for all. He probably never visited a more enthusiastic and appreciative audience. About thirty dollars were spent for presents, besides many ar- ticles of clothing which were donated by the citizens of the com- munity. Education of to-day has undertaken the training of the moral, intellectual and pnysical nature of children. While our athletic records are not of the highest rank they have been made in a clean, sportsman-like manner, and we feel that athletics have come into our schools to stay. It should not be over-emphasized, but should not be neglected. We have an excellent gymnasium and hope to have, in a few years, some well trained athletes. Jnnt lull On account of parental objection it appeared almost impossible to have a foot ball team for 1914. Finally with much difficulty a team was organized. But it lacked proper training and suffered defeat before the Wiley eleven. However. Wiley had a strong team and our showing was no disgrace. Although only one game was played the team showed improvement, and might have done better had not the scarcity of neighboring teams made it impossible to schedule more games. It was not known until late in the season that no mores gam 3 would be scheduled, hence some good was derived from the practice and training of the boys who were trying for places on the tea . Although defeated by a big score the W. H. S. eleven enjoyed the trip to Terre Haute, where they received good treatment. FOOT BALL SQUAD-1914 Top row. left to right-.-Professor Raquet. Mgr.; B.

Spruhan lafikd Hall £ ?aflmt--liU4-T5 At the opening of the basket ball season Waveland H. S. had bright prospects for a winning team. However, these prospects soon began to dwindle, first with the loss of Jarvis, a star forward. Then Grimes, one of the best guards that has represented our school, was forced to withdraw on account of sickness. For a time the remaining members of the team had become discouraged, and Ferrell quit school, while Glover, from lack of interest, quit coming out to practice. With Owens the only man on the team who started the season, practically a new team was organized. The scores show that this new team was not strong enough for the heavy schedule that had been arranged. However, they had the spirit, and played out the schedule—with no discredit to the school. The outlook for a good team next year is good. Most of the members of this year’s squad will be here, besides the new material that is expected. It has been planned to make two courts out of doors and have an inter-class tournament next fall, and from the best of these will be chosen the team to represent the school in the inter-scholastic games. The girls were unable to schedule any games, but received the benefit of practice and ought to be ready for a high school schedule next year.

Rose- baum, by the Juniors, on Thursday evening, January 21st, 1915. The parlor and living rooms were decorated in the Freshman colors, old-gold and blue. A Silhouette contest was given. After this, the revelers went to the dining room, which was decorated in the Junior colors, pink and white. A two-course luncheon was served by Faye Armstrong. Kathryn Fullenwider, Beatrice Carrington, Arthur Jarvis, Elton Milligan and Foster Glover. A bunch of fun-loving Sophomores and Seniors came creeping around the Rosebaum home about an hour after the festivities started and were planning for some good natured fun. when the judge came out with his shot gun, and shot the arm off the “Great Dipper.’’ Then the Sophomores and Seniors beat a hasty retreat. The festivity broke up at a late hour. Everyone went home happy, but it was reported that the little “Rhinies” cast suspicious glances at all the shadows along the walk for fear of being carried off by some of the lurking upper classmen, but we surmise they got home all right, as they were all at school next day. Sox Supper On Saturday evening, Oct. 18, 1914, the Seniors gave a box supper in the school Gym.” The hall was decorated in the school colors, purple and white. The candy booths, show tents, the crys of the auctioneer selling boxes and the racket of the brass band gave the occasion the resemblance of a county fair. The girls brought boxes filled with good things to eat. while the boys brought the girls and money to buy the boxes. This meeting was a success from a financial as well as a social stand- point. GDprmttg jExrrriHPH One interesting feature of the High School work is the entei tainment which has been furnished to the pupils during the morn- ing exercise period from 8:30 to 8:45 each morning. Through the efforts of both teachers a::d pupils, these few minutes have been used for work which is entertaining as well as instructive. The talent of some of our High School students has been bet- ter displayed to us during this period than at any other time. The boys and girls are willing to entertain the other pupils with music and readings. Many of the pupils have displayed their ability in giving read- ings. musical monologues and other recitals for entertainment. Besides the pupils of the High School, many of the alumni and other citizens have been very kind and willing to entertain the pupils by music, readings and short talks. The ministers of the town have given us many helpful and interesting talks. Several lecturers who have been in town have been obtained to speak to us. Their ef- forts and the interest which all have taken in the school by taking part in these short exercises have been greatly appreciated and much help has been obtained from them by the pupils. Olffr rttinr JUatj The second play given by the Senior class of W. H. S. was as grand a success as the first one given in 1914. The class of ’14 was one with many talented musicians, $o their play was a musical one. But the play of 1915 was one of quite a different character. The members of the class of ’ I 5 were pupils with more literary talent, and their skill along this line was very well displayed in the com- ical production, The Hoodoo. After about a month’s hard work by the pupils and of good training by the teachers, the play was produced on the stage of the High School Auditorium on Friday night, March 12, before the largest audience that has been assembled in Waveland for many a day. Each one of the players, inspired by the unusually large audience and by thought of the big sum of money obtained by his efforts did his best. There is generally one star of the play, but so well did each one act his part, from the least Little Spiggot to the rheumatic old “Mr. Meek. that it would be hard to distinguish one better than any one of the rest. The play was long but inter- esting from the beginning to the end. The audience was delighted and there was loud applause, when the play ended happily, for Doris and Billy and Amy and Brighton. On the following Saturday night. March 20, the “show troupe went to Judson, Indiana. Although the crowd was not as large it was a very appreciative one, and the ones who took part in the play had a good time and felt they were well paid. enutra Jflitjlttij Oh class of 'fifteen, so noble and grand! Hark to the cry of dismay! Well have to disband, for we’re losing our sand— Or that's what the teachers all say! Weve ruined the school that once had a name.

The pedagogues, dear, have shed many a tear— Or that’s what the teachers all say! Microbes are biting us all in the neck; Bacilli chewing inside. Ponies and notes are not to be found.
