Their rivers run with narrowed bounds, Cleared are their broad, old hunting grounds, And on their ancient battle fields The greensward to the plowman yields. Like mocking echoes of the hill Their fame resounded and grew still, And on green ridge and level plain Their hearths will never smoke again. Even to this day. relics of the Indians arc constantly found all along the Genesee; evidences that the Indians inhabited this section of the country not very many years ago. The only knowledge which we possess of the Indians came from some of the writings of their chiefs and noted men. The Senecas, called Ho-nan-nc ho-ont were most closely connected with this section of country. They came about five hundred years before Columbus made his discovery of the New World and remained until the last century. The Senecas belonged to the league of the Five Nations or Iroquois, which included all the Indians in New York State. The Senecas were not civilized to any extent, and their homes were not the best. In early times the cone-shaped hut was built of poles covered with bark or skins. Later, when the axe came into use, the hut was oblong-shaped. Hunks, covered with skins, were built around the walls a foot from the ground. The fire was built in the center of the hut on the ground, so that the smoke might creep out through the chestnut branches spread over the top, which were the only protection from the weather. The hospitality of the Seneca was one of his most prominent characteristics. He would share his last morsel with his despondent brothers. Although the Scncca was gentle at home, he was the fiercest upon the war-path. No foe ever entered the territory who was not immediately exterminated. Among the noted chieftains of the Senecas we must not overlook Red Jacket, Complanter or Handsome I-ake. They grew to be benefactors of their people and men worthy of a place in history. Each one strove to promote the welfare and civilization of his people. Like more civilized nations, we sec that they had men upon whom they could depend in times of danger. The Senecas had held a place in the region so long that it was hard for them to give it up in 1825. when a greater and more civilized band stepped in to clear away the forest and hold undisputed sway. 10 M.

And wc arc glad to go, yet fain to stay ; Behind us four short years of sun and shade. Before us all of Life's long hidden way. Just as when sometimes on a summer’s day A little child will stand with wistful eyes. And look across the flowery fields to where The tree-crowned summits of the blue hills rise. And dream of that fair day when he will climb Until the whole broad earth lies at his feet, Until upon the topmost pinnacle He'll drink the cup of triumph [Kissing sweet. Yet while he dreams, he strives to win his dream. At length, one day, with weary feet he stands Upon the highest peak of all. But there The cup lies shattered in his eager hands. For lo. to right and left, as for away As mind can comprehend or eye can view. Far higher mountains rise in lofty tiers. Their hoary summits lost in heaven's blue. We’ve reached the promised goal and realized The hopes, ambitions, of the four years past; With plodding feet we’ve stumbled on the way. But stand upon the pinnacle at last. Here, with a broader view we could not have Save for the mounting of the smaller hill. We see about us heights that we will climb And noble aims and purposes fulfil. For this, our wider outlook. West High School. For added power to will and strength to do. For memories which live on through the years. For all that serves to make us good and true. For this and much besides, our hearts arc filled With gratitude, and love that will be true. We leave thy portals with a backward glance. The class of nineteen-six. West High—Adieu. Charlotte M.

S., first toddled up the steps of the old high school building and pulled and tugged at the massive oak doors, striving to turn them on their hinges to gain an entrance. We were just learning to do that difficult feat, with a certain degree of safeness to the doors, for some of us really were strong, and incidentally learning a little Latin, German and Physi- ology, and beginning to feel like “ grown ups ” with the new prefixes to our names; and then, too, bravely trying to survive the harsh, cruel usages of our ' who have you gots,” when we were summoned to a new place of learning. What a place it was! And doubly so when you stop to think of and compare the other with it. In the first place we exchanged a neighborhood of noise and dirt for one of quiet and cleanliness, dark gloomy walls for new bright ones. There was room for everybody, a place for everything and everything in its place, an equipment in every department to be proud of. and—but I am hopelessly waylaid when I attempt to give the merits of our high school, unless I make a bold dash and return again to my subject. It was here we began to ••tallow strong and develop into the mighty class we now arc. Our Freshman year came to a close, and we had been wise enough to keep quiet, observe, learn and get ready for future work. In our Sophmore year the first renowed •• Roman election took place under the leadership and guidance of Mr. Gray, and developed because of our earnest work and and attention. We were not so slow in athletics, cither. pushing hard the Juniors for second honors in the inter- class field day. It was in our Junior year that we began to do some- thing in earnest, and to show that the class is one of remarkable talent. Our farce was a most decided success from every standpoint, our ••Prom one of the most enjoyable ever given. In our little rushes with the haughty Seniors we were always on top in more ways than one. Even on •• Senior Day we were conspicuous with our red neckties, notwithstanding the efforts of •• naughty- five. We have always held our own with remarkable tenac- ity as Freshmen, Sophmores, Juniors. But as Seniors! I think no one will doubt but that we have made an extra- ordinary showing. And recall under what circumstances. We were separated at the beginning of our last year, much to our disappointment and against our wishes, some of us to stay East and some of us to go West. Here I must leave off recording the annals of our “ Oriental ” friends, and confine myself to our own efforts and successes, since the migration to the Occident. Alas, class of June '06. W. H. S.! But do not for a moment think I am driven to compassion. Far from it. Wc don't need it. My only thought was of the sad fact of our separation, that it had to come. It brought a lump in my throat then, and w hen I think of it now I cannot forget what a sad and memorable parting it was But it had to come, and we managed to dry our tears then, so let's do it again. After all. has it been a real separation ? Thanks to 20 our good fortune and our good fellowship, we haven't been separated at all, just moved west, where wc have been able to do our work to better advantage, and show that a few miles of pavement can by no means destroy friendships so well founded during our three years of companionship. When I think of the glorious career we have had in our West High School, the beam of joy and pride that comes dries up all traces of tears and dispels all regret. What a year we have had of it! A new school, unknown, waiting for a reputation to be made for her, faced us. Her pupils have done their duty and June '06 her full share. Think over the enterprises wc have carried on during the year. There is not a single instance where the Seniors have not played their part successfully, if there was a part for them. In athletics—Football, Hockey. Basketball, Track, Baseball, all teams with a vast majority of Seniors on them. And besides her part in these larger enterprises. June '06 won overwhelmingly the inter-class meet, with her nearest competitor trailing far in the rear. The girls, too, have upheld their part in athletics. Both the Basketball team and the Track team have their full share of Seniors. In debating, the officers of the Debating Society arc all Seniors. There arc members on one of the boys' teams and the three speakers on the girls’ team are Seniors. In dramatics, wc can boast of as good a Senior farce as was ever given. Our play. “She Stoops to Conquer, was, in the words of many who have seen them all, the best high school play ever given. In musical organizations, too, wc have more than upheld our reputation in other things. Our school paper, even though confronted with many difficulties, has been a thorough success. No one will doubt but that this success has been largely due to the members of the Senior class engaged in the work. Not by any means to mention all who have done heroic deeds, there remain in my memory a few who have carried out their duties with willingness and thoroughness. There is Sutherland, our president, who has “gov- erned to perfection, and whose dramatic attainments every- body is aware of. There is Robinson, a star in every sense of the word, and the backbone of track work. There is Head, a business man and an actor; Levis, one of the defenders of the Amherst cup. Among the girls, Charlotte Dann is especially worthy of mention and praise for her untiring efforts to make the school paper a success. There's Wooden, Phillips, Brandt, Lewis, •• I.ang, Connors, Hagaman. Carroll, Gucker and others, whose fame you well know. However, while all these many and praiseworthy deeds I have mentioned have been done, our scholarship has not been neglected, and I am sure we have carried along this latter quite as succevsfully as the former. Our high school days arc soon to end, and wc arc to go on and up. some to higher institutions of learning, and others to divers occupations. Let us work hard. If we do there is no doubt but that wc shall be as successful in after life as wc have been m our high school life; that we shall do justice to our alma mater, and make her proud that she has fostered us so carefully, and brought us up to be men and women of the right sort.

OUTDCX5R TRACK TEAM 1906 59 The Class Orator’s Stratagem Twenty-six to twenty-five ; there it stood. By one vote • Spouty ” Wilkins had been elected orator of the gradu- ating class. But the honor rested on an unappreciative head. Although Spout's ” vivid tale-telling had gained him his nickname, nevertheless lie lacked any ambition to become a Demosthenes. In fact, he was lazy—surely a most unusual malady for a high school boy. And now, as he glared at his congratulating companions, he growled. You chumps, why couldn't you elect some one that wants to make a speech ?” But they soon let him know that he would have to stick it out. So he hurried home from school and sought assistance from his family. Spout's first move was always to seek assistance. “ Sis, said he, and from his affectionate manner the sister drew suspicions of a favor, I’ve got to toss off the main speech at our commencement supper, and I don't know just how to—well, start it. And his most obliging sister answered. •'Tell me when the dinner comes off, and I'll help you, maybe.'' •' Yes, and you'll let it out to some of those Juniors so that they'll get in and break it up,” retorted ' Spout'; but the more he thought of it, the more he wished that some- thing would happen to the supper in order that he might not have to prepare a speech. Was he becoming so unrcsourceful that he couldn't even think up a way to dodge hard work ? Any shirking might appear to be traitorous to the class, and yet, any oration of his would in no way benefit or interest them, he was sure. A few more days he grumbled and then his companions observed that a smile of satisfaction was stealing over his face day by day. “ 'Spout' has made up his mind to give us a brilliant speech,” suggested one. “ Never! ” answered another, “ Do you 'spose a fellow could look so happy just because he was carrying around a resolve to stand up in front of a hundred people and wave his arms about ? ” In Spout's ” own words he was becoming inspired with the spirit of the occasion ” and was going to out-do himself at orating.” But this explanation failed to make plain what reason he had for planning heavily and secretly with a certain boy from a lower class. His sister feared that he might do something too startlingly unconventional. 60 so she offered to help him on his speech writing. But “Spout ' only refused loftily, and told her that he was thoroughly capable of rivaling Webster through his own efforts. Then she was sure that something was wrong, for never before had he been known to slight an offer of assistance. A few more days passed and then the great day came around. Those interested in the class orator had become more mystified, for “Spout'' made vain efforts to convince them that nothing unusual was going to happen, but that he was simply planning to produce a satisfactory oration. Why was he so anxious that they should expect nothing unusual ? Was he fearing the consequences of some evil project ? On the afternoon of graduating day, the ordinary speeches and presentations were delivered satisfactorily, but it was in the evening at the supper that Spout was to perform his part. The commencement supper was always limited to members of the class and held in some place only decided upon at the last moment, since every year the class below endeavored to break it up and spread Senior gore over the feast. But this time the plans had been laid so carefully that they expected no outside interference. The class had come together quietly and festivities commenced. Everything went on joyfully until “ Spout ” was called upon to give his oration. Something seemed to be expected as the class orator arose and assuming a Wcbstcrian attitude gazed nonchalantly around. There was no twinkle in his eyes, nothing but determination, as he began to speak : Fellow-students ! —very deliberately—• Since so very few of us ever make any stir in life Just then, as if in answer to his words, a disturbance was heard at the door. Then a sumping of feet and a crash at the other end of the room. A few more bangs and then some one cried. The Juniors!” The Juniors!” In another instant they were swarming into the room and a free-for-all fight was started. “Spout sat unmolested on one side of the room through all the struggle, and although he was doubtful of the outcome, he chuckled geefully to himself, No two-hour speech for mine, when I can help it. And evil had so completely triumphed over good that another lazy man's success was recorded. Wakkkn Wooden, o6 6 i f The Annual” Board Double, double, toil and trouble— Such has been their steady struggle ; And do not think that 'mid sweet flow'rs They squandered many happy hours, While pleasures all in glad array Adorned the path where they did stray. Weary pen and sleqdess night, Well racked brain and midnight light. Too oft. indeed, they had to cope While ever living in the hope To hear it said by kindly one That which they've tried, they have well done. 62 Arethusa Founded at Brockport Normal School in 1870.

You've met some faces you have seen And names you've read before. Perhaps with a frown, you throw it down, Perhaps 'tis with a smile; In after years you'll pick it up And deem it more worth while. ANNUAL And each face will be fairer then When broad miles lie between, Fach recollection of West High Will be more dear, I ween. So lay it aside with care, friends. For in the coming years. We'll turn the pages o'er and o'er With smiles, perhaps with tears. C. M. D.

Whether this has been accomplished must be left to the decision of the student'-; but the increase in the number of contributions handed in and in the quality of those contributions surely indicate an added interest in the school paper. It would take a Gen- eral like George Washington to lead an army to victory when that army was devoid of the very necessities of life, and was left by the people to starve and freeze at Valley Forge, but where in history have we a second George Washington ? Equally difficult would it be for a staff, no matter how- capable, to make a success of the school paper without the assistance and co-operation of the entire student body. Not only have the contributions been better and more numerous during the past two months, but also many designs for covers have been handed in ; designs which give promise that in a year or two the covers will not only excel those of the past year, but will be entirely the work of the students. Perhaps one of the brightest and withal most unex- pected things which we recall now in connection with the school paper, is the interest that the Freshman class has taken in it. Faithfully have they handed in notices of class doings and elections, faithfully have they written stories and poems and designed covers, and faithfully have they subscribed for or bought the Occident. In all these ways they have outdone every other class, and the Occi- dent thanks them very heartily. May they continue the good work throughout their four years’ course. Aside from the students and those teachers who have so willingly hcl[ cd us, the paper owes, perhaps, most to the advertisers who have given us their advertisements each month in spite of the fact that the returns were not particu- larly overwhelming. We have concluded a year which has been successful in many ways, and the prospect is still more encouraging for the future. The Occident and the Senior Annual Hoard unite in w ishing every student a very happy vacation, and may each one return to his work in the fall with renewed enthusiasm and interest. 82 Class Officers JUNE. 1906 Co lot —Tai-qnoi ' Blue «ml Gold.

Howard Van Dame Treasurer, Ethel Arthur S4 Class Room and Corridor In the last Senior Annual those students who expected, in September, to go to the West High School, were informed what the two schools could not do if their teams were separate. We were told that the standard of Rochester High athletics would be lowered if two separate teams were maintained in each branch of athletics. And yet East High never had a better track or a better basketball team than she had this year, and West High has had a very success- ful basketball team, for the first season of a new school; moreover, her prospects for having a championship foot- ball team next fall arc very bright. We were told that neither school would be able to produce a successful dabating team. Yet West High has defeated East High, and East High has overcome her old rival Masten Park, in the field of mental gymnastics. We were informed that the two schools could not each publish a paper, either of which would be successful from a literary or financial point of view. Wc think that this year's issue of the Tilt: Occident and The Clarion. affords a satisfactory answer to this objection. Altogether, has not experience shown that it is wiser for the two schools to have their activities separate? Fric- tion could not fail to result from joint management of any school enterprise, for each school would be continually striving to gain the pre-eminence. “ One word more and I am done. Would it not be advisable for this year's graduating class to form an Alumni Association, separate from that of Fast High ? With these few words I lay down my pen. In the fir t issue of The Occident I stated that the object of this department was to hold as ‘twere the mirror ” up to West High School life. If any reader thinks that the reflections have not accurately represented what they are supposed to, let him blame it to some convexity in the mirror, or to a wrong point of view on the part of the writers. Raymond H. Fuller. Vacation is coming ! What visions of joy that word brings up before the eyes of some of us. Visions of happy, care-free days spent in the country or at some pleasant summer rc-'ort in the mountains or at the waterside. Would that all of us might be thus fortunate. Hat there arc many of us to whom the word vacation means vacation fiom school only and redoubled activity in another line. To such it is a time in which they try to earn enough to keep them in school another year, or to help pay up for the privilege they have already enjoyed. To such we extend the hand of encouragement in their commendable struggle, and say. we respect you for it. It is a little consolation that you will be the stronger man or woman for your bard experience. The sooner all of us learn to be satisfied and to make the most of our advantages, such as they are, the happier we will be. Wherever we arc or whatever we do, the writer wishes to all as happy a vacation as circumstances can permit, and especially such a one. that when again we return to our respective halls of learning, we will have a right to feel that our vacation has been well spent. In concluding. I cannot truthfully say that I lay by my think-cap ” and put up my pen—for I never had any “ think-cap to lay by. and as for my pen—that is gener- ally the property of the Occident office. However, that form will convey the idea. All through the year my ambition has been to nuke my contributions to Class Room and Corridor good enough to justify reappointing a girl as joint editor next year, for, goodness knows, that in such a department, where the editors arc screened by their secrecy, the poor girls need some one to look out for their interests. We can recall the unrelenting criticism and merciless abuse girls have suffered at the bands of former impartial Spectators. It went so far that wc couldn't wear a new fashion of clothing that the Spectator didn't publicly comment upon. We couldn't do anything out of the usual way, but what he saw fit to criti- cise. He always kept one eye wide open for the girls, and he couldn't see out of the other, I guess, for he was blind to the faults of his own sex. When a boy and girl arc joint editors, they act as a check upon each other and thus preserve the balance. Now. of course, anything that has been wrong in this department is the fault of my associate. What other purpose do you suppose I had in mind when 1 used ••he? Dorothy Cross. sr, Exchanges As this is our very last appearance in print this year, we wish to say something about our exchanges. Very naturally, although perhaps somewhat unfairly, a school is judged by its publication, and we are compelled to say that some of our exchanges have failed to make a good impression. Some have an inferior quality of paper, some have no exchange column and ads. are scattered here and there among the reading matter. Perhaps we arc too apt to compare them with the papers of our own high schools, and call inferior that which is only different, but more care would no doubt show a great improvement We especially wish to commend the •• Spectator from Louisville, Ken- tucky, for its general neat appearance. We earnestly hope that the coming year will be the brightest in the history of all our exchanges. We gratefully acknowledge the receipt of the following exchanges for the year: Academian, Acroama.

G.It now has over one hundred new typewriters of the kinds most used in business houses, this equipment being unequaled in the state outside of the city of New York. CLTlic banking and business practice department is the peer of any similar department to be found in any other school, and the-c two crowning features ate alone worth a vi-it to the institution G� Thc organization of departments and courses of study is so systematic and complete that a thorough business training can be given to high school graduates in a comparatively brief period, thoroughness in all work never being sacrificed to speed. C.Thc school is in continuous session throughout the year, enabling students to enter at any time.
