Hiram Erahlrg lilnhna RINCIPAI. OE XVl'lEEl.lNG HIGH SCHOOL, sponsor of the RECORD, and friend of every student and teacher, we dedicate this Annual. For his manhood we have respect, and for his friendship during our four years in High School we have gratitude. XVith the utmost sincerity we express the wish that his success in the future may even out-shine his remarkable success in the past-that is the wish of the Class of 1924. At the meeting of the Board of Education, held on April 17, 1924, Mr. ll. B. johns tendered his resignation as Principal of XYheeling High School. This came as a surprise and a distinct shock. The resignation was accepted with the Board's regret. Ur. H. P. l.insz, member of the Board, in com- menting on the resignation said: Mr. President: It is with regret that we receive the resignation of Mr. johns, our High School Principal. Mr. johns is one ofthe ablest educators in the State of XX'est Yirginia, if not throughout the country. lle has developed our High School to the highest degree of efficiency and has proved himself a most able executive. I therefore move. Mr. President, that wc, the NVheeling Board of Education, accept the resig- nation of Professor H. B. .lohns with reluctance and regret, and with great appreciation for the wonderful work that he has done in the XVheeling High School and the success attained during his administration, and that the Superintendent of Schools be instructed to convey, in writing, these senti- ments of our appreciation of the good work done by Mr. H. B. Johns as Principal of Wheeling High School, and our regret of his departure from our school system. This motion was unanimously adopted by the Board of Education, Upon his entrance as Principal he found all student affairs without money, and some. including the RECORD and Athletics, with deficits, but he has worked so diligently and strenuously that under his careful guidance all student activities have been so conducted that now the RECORD is 11 financial successg Athletics have a bank account of approximately ten thou- sand dollars: various other funds show balances, and the school has pur- chased through its own efforts a grand piano and beautiful new curtains and draperies for the stage. NVhile Mr. Johns has promoted these activities with patience and energy. he has labored most faithfully to expand our curriculum and elevate the standard of scholarship during his nine years as Principal. That his hopes and his work have seen their fruition is'known from the fact that our school ranks today with the first of the land, and its graduates have been received on certificate by the best Universities in America. It has had its representatives among the graduates of XVest Point, Annapolis, llarvard, Columbia, University of Michigan, University of XYisconsin, Dart- mouth, Carnegie, University of Pittsburg, our own State University, and manv others. Then, too, there are hundreds of graduates and former students whose welfare has had the personal attention of Mr. Johns, who has known and helped more bouvs and girls in their ambition than any other person in the city of XYheeling. All those whom he has helped, as well as the present student body, teachers, and Board of Education, regret the loss of the Principal, whose professional life thus far has been devoted to the XVheeling High School. 'His earnestness, his high intelligence, his gentility, his genius for organization. and his limitless capacity for work have made a profound impression, and we wonder if there is one anywhere that can replace him. He came. and planned, and worked, as only some can dog The world is full of common folk, but men like him are few. 633523 Q QW An Apprniatiun NCIC UPON A TIME there was an ideal class sponsor-a sponsor who never became bored with the worries, the childish pranks, and the festivities of her classg a sponsor who gave constructive criticism instead of only the destructive variety. That sponsor was deeply loved by her class, and thoughts of her were always among the brightest memories of that class. just such an ideal sponsor was granted to us, the members of the Class of '24, when Miss Jeannette Pryor consented to act as our guide throughout our high school years! Always faithful and kind, she has been an inspiration in every respect. Not once during our four years under her care has Miss Pryor refused anything we asked for. Our plans were never too trivial for her interest, and we always knew that she'd be there for our parties and programs. So we, the Class of '24, take this means of voicing our deep appreciation for Miss Pryor's interest in us and her many efforts in our behalf. May she ever be as happy as she has always helped us to be-this ideal teacher, spon- sor, and friend! f Life's joys come not by chance of luck They are the roses that we pluckg So 'tis with this, the Book we makeu- Its contents are---just what you take.

The work of Household Arts is very wide in its scope, including' food principles, mealfplanning, and servingg the study of textiles, color, garment construction, and fundamental principles of costume design. X'X'e have long realized that we must know something almout food, shelter, clothing, and how to lie healthy, and we are now teaching almove all such knowledgeg we must also understand how to administer the funds that provide comfort of a home, and for this purpose we have dehnite prolmlems that we work oiit-s--lwiidgetiiig' for the hu-zincss woman and for the family. XYe try to teach the wise spends ing of an income. The accepted fact today' is that every housewife ought to lie as proficient in her realm as the business man is in his. Ks a man can not do good work without the lmest facilities and the most careful organization in his office, so the home-maker is handicapped unless her work shop is suitalmly 1-lanned and arranged. live teach our girls home-planning' with a definite View to economy. effi- ciency, and artistic arrangement. They learn the value of choosing a certain style in architecture and of furnishing' the interior in its proper relation. lffllf pliasis laid on the fact that color, light, pictures, pleasing' arrangement, and tonvenience plav an important part in the happiness and comfort of the individual. 18 111 THE INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT 1 .1.

FAIR READER, you will raise pensive brows and ponder over the idea of evolution in a high school. XVe interpret the definition of evolution as the means by which we obtain our high school diplomas. It is necessary to pass through four stages of high school evolution--namely, Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior years, We shall take the liberty of ignoring precedent of an editorys etiquette, and so, instead of beginning our annual with the pictures and write-ups of Seniors, we shall endeavor to lead you with us on our trip of evolution, begin- ning with our verdant Freshman year and ending with the ripened year of Seniors. XVe want you to share the fun with us. Enter, the Freshmen! Everyone seemed to know we were the green- ies ! XVas it because in arranging our schedules we tried to make the English Literature teacher believe we were in 211 for 9B English? Maybe. Then, as supposedly wise Sophomores, we strutted around letting thc world know we weren't Freshmen any more. XVhat a thrilling junior year we did have! Cupid pricked every heart available. An unusually large amount of powder and Stacomb was sold. And now, Seniors-the master minds of the universe! VVe are to en- lighten the world with much sought-for knowledge that we have stored away during our four years' sojourn in the great institution of learning. And thus we begin unfolding to you our evolution. 22 FEE' HM N Blreahmm Behold the child, by nz:ture's kindly law, Pleased with n rattle, tickled with a straw Ah! vvhllt would the school be to us If the lireshies were no more? lVe should dread the desert behind us XVorse than the dark before. The childhood shows the mzm, As morning shows the day. S IIOIHOTES -,,c:aq: s-la. Q 1 4 A A ,QM - 1 K' Nw V XT 4, 11 x Emu 1' K I 1 vr- .

Grumpy was an excellent selection, and the cast chosen to put it on was equal to the taslc. As Grumpy , XYalter Menlcemeller performed well and quite consist-- ently for such a difficult role. His mannerisms and voice portrayed that interesting old character most faithfully. The old man, with his perpetual grouch underneath which was the kindly disposition of mcllowed age and the keen discernment of youth. made an enjoyable impression on the audi- ence. The maid, as presented by Helen Aclcer, pleased every one by her representation of faithful attendance on Grumpy and by her sympathetic treatment of his changing moods. She was one of the most consistent char- acters of the cast. lithel Check, as Yirginia Bullivant. portrayed that happy. slightly coquettish, yet admirable personage, very accurately. Denny May was not an unworthy hero. His presence was quite natural, and voice better 1han anticipated. Ruddock, the valet to Grumpyl', was done most admira- bly by Bradford Noyes, who was perhaps the most consistent performer of the evening. lle was clever in his obsequious attentions to Griunpv , and at the same time he displayed a sense of humor, unnoticeable to 'tt1rumpy . As Mr. Jarvis, George Marines did exceptionally well for so difhcult a char- acter. Paul flillilan assumed the role of Merridew, the butler, in line style and surprised his closest friends. Dorothy McKee made a big part of a less prominent character and, as Mrs. Maclaren, won much praise for the perf formance. Ur. Naclaren, played by George Tavlor, was well done. Roi' lYallrabenstein did well the impersonation of Yalentinc XYolfe, and l'aulf 50 5111'111g N1I1Il1'151'11 lls 1111 Ilx 1D1111x1111, 1111- 1'111111111111g 1111111- 1X1111is1111 S11Zll'l1, 11'111 1151111111 l111l'N Nll1'11 111-1111111 1111111 111-1111111 1111- s1'1-111-5, 1'111111- 11111 111111 11111111-11 1111 1111-1111- 111 1111 111-11111 111 g'1fI11'l'1l1 1111- 1'11w1 gg'111'1- 115 Il 1'1-111111'11111111- I11.lll1l1ft.i1111.

From the :xpression on his face we thought that the visions he saw must be very interesting, so we looked over his shoulder to view the magic globe. A group of children dressed in green were entering a large building. They cast frightened glances about them, but the cloud of gloom seemed to lighten when a sweet-looking lady met them. Miss Pryor, murmured lfather Time. As we gazed. a period of several months seemed to go by. Miss Pryor, the sponsor, took those young children over a very rough and rocky road. XYilbur Neer was chosen to be Class President, Benny Paur, Vice-President, Margaret Hawker, Secretary, and Kathryn Carnahan, Treasurer. But all was not sorrow for them. They attempted great things, and achieved much success. Even then it seemed that the color of those garments were changing from green to another hue. But the crystal ball became misty and Father Time looked. up with a sigh, whispering, As they were when they were Freshmen. XVe looked hack into the globe and the mist cleared away. NVe saw the sz-.me children, and yet they were not the same. Their faces were olderg indeed, they were no longer children. They had their same guardian, Miss Pryor. The rough path grew gradually smoother. Indeed, there were even times when they relieved their minds from scholastic duties to give or indulge in a few of those mysterious events, called parties. They also indulged in a Hallowe'en Masquerade. The globe again became a misty cloud while we listened carefully. and were soon rewarded by hearing Father Time explain softly, As they were when they were Sophomoresf' A third time the crystal cleared. Miss Pryor was still at the head of the band. Junior Blum was President, Denny May, Vice-Presidentg Pat Heusel, Secretary, and Alma XVerner, Treasurer. VVC noticed that our friends were rather quiet during the first part of this, the third stage of their journey. Their greatest burst of enthusiasm came when they presented a very successful dance called The junior-Senior Masquerade, in order to raise sufficient funds for the Tunior-Senior Prom. After a time we noticed in the globe that there was evidence of much suppressed excitement. VVe found the reason for it when we saw a great number of people assembled from far and near for the big social event of the year, The Junior-Senior Prom. The crystal globe lit up with a rainbow shower of colors from the lovely gowns. Many people looked on with envious eyes, sorry that they could not participate in such an event. But such scenes cannot last forever. The crystal clouded for the third time. Father Time said with a happy little smile, As they were when they were Juniors. For the last time we gazed into the depths of that magic ball. Yes, we saw them coming with Miss Pryor, who was still their sponsor. President. junior Blumg Vice-President, Bud Noyes, secretary, Helen Ackerg and Treasurer, Pat', Heusel. Their faces were serious, for they were not the same care-free group who began the journey. Some had fallen by the way- sideg some had stumbled from the path, but there were still many of the charter members. Three times they betrayed their false dignity by giving the play, Grumpy At last they came in sight of their goal-Graduation. Those who have experienced that joy, know what it is. Those who have not have yet to live through that supreme thrill, which cannot be described or explained. As the crystal darkened for the last time, Father Time sighed, As they were when they were Seniors. . UMIDGEU MEINHART. PAUL GILLILAN. 52 5 fy, -Q E ' M. f4W K ml,- rs. V! I ' A -09 Q : lg..

However, it will not assume that posi- tion merely because the oil scandal was uncovered by Congress, or because XVheeling secured pure water in that year, great as they are, but because we, the Seniors of XVheeling High School-the very individuals for whom the world had been waiting so patiently-were graduated. VVheeling High relinquishes us with tears and regret, while the world welcomes us with out- stretched arms. It knows now that order will be brought out of chaos, and that the many intricate, perplexing, and heretofore insolvable problems will vanish as dew before the noonday sun. Success has followed us--or shall we say that through our endeavors we have attained success. XYhether it be in athletics, music, dramatic ability, literary societies, debating, school publications, in the class rooms-no matter what activity one may suggest, the class of '24 will be found represented and a powerful force in its work. Can you think of a class with more versatile athletes? Can you conceive of a more talented group of musicians and singers? Undoubtedly, they will be trooping before the foot lights of our great concert halls, worthy successors of the present day masters. Literary socie- ties have always been considered at Vtlheeling High, they were almost un- known here. Did we pass the four years of our High School life without such organizations? Certainly not. XVe perceived the value and importance of such organizations, and immediately formulated plansifor two such socie- ties, which we christened the Pioneers and the Mountaineers. Braddock, the Piritish general, was humiliated but little compared to the humiliation our instructors have suffered during our sojourn here. All their efforts, and we know they have been strenuous, to discover some fact or cvent of which we did not know, have utterly failed. But without acknowl- edging defeat, they changed their line of attack, realizing that their supply of knowledge must be enlarged, before another attack could be contemplated. But you know how ridiculous such a move would be when intelligence endeav- ors to cope with superior intelligence. Our great wealth of knowledge, and our ability in the class room is admired by our teachers and envied by our fellow students. Our verv presence has excited fear and trembling, tending to obliviate all else. Truly, we have been the very personification of erudition. Being deeply interested in the modernization of our school, and concerned for the health of our fellow students, we initiated a movement for securing a cafeteria. Previous to this we brought our lunches in the morning news- paper and ate them under the most disagreeable conditions, helping them along with half pints of milk. Tlut the old order changeth, for now instead of sandwiches and milk, milk and sandwiches, one may secure his lunch, con- sisting of foods beneficial to the health, in the cafeteria-all because there was a class of '24. This alone should force you to your knees in gratitude. One of our characteristic traits is our insatiableness. XVe were not satis- lied with the type of Record edited by former classes-therefore we set out to produce a Record that would satisfy our desires.

Perhaps the world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never for- get what we do here. All Gaul is divided into three partsg likewise all High School is divided into three parts-the bad, the worser, and the this school worsest. XYe might liken unto a League of Nations-each class representing a government and the en- an absolute throned monarch, therein, tyrant whose Usccptre shows the sway of temporal power. lt is a well known fact that the most powerful of these monarchs are in the habit of holding clandestine meetings every six weeks for the purpose f - f-.An Y 8OLfxSnE5 ON THE Baci' 'WO ww FHGE5 orcjqi .

'l'here are two factions in XY. ll. S.: the possibles and the impossibles-A -- teachers and students. liach faction is divided into groups. 'l'he students are Freshmen, Sophoniores, juniors, and Super-intellects. The Freshmen- their faces not yet emaciated and who little realize the hardships in store for them, the Sophomores--just beginning to sink under the merciless tide of tyrannyg the junicmrs-submerging for the second timeg and finally the Seniors-having sunk for the third time, but by their indomitable spirits having fought their wav up, are now washed upon the shores of peace. The teachers are dvided into two factions: The ones who want all of our time and the ones who want only four-fourths ot it. XYith the able assistance of the adding machine we have been able to complete the tempus fl.atin for time j each of our teachers expects us to put on his or her subiects and now have tacts to prove the utter ridiculous- ness of said teachers' demands. l. Miss llouglass-leading power l lltlllf--NIltL'll1l1lli. ll --Memorizing lXlilton's major and minor poems. 25 W-Outside reading. 5 'l'ot.ll. ll. Mr. lfair-WA more benevolent despot-SQ hours. lll. Miss Carroll-.X member of the Holy Alliance with King Douglas and Teacher for acrobats who are doubling up . IY. Miss Gregory-Most benevolent of all despots-3 hours. Y. llotentate lflallentine--3 hours to read newspapers dating from 1880 to the present day. 57 Taken as a whole, these teachers require 18 hours of diligent and unres lenting study each day. Allowing each student ten minutes to reach his home from school, he studies continuously from 3:10 in the afternoon until ten minutes after nine the following morning. He has neither eaten nor slept during this long stretch of time and is rewarded by an invitation from Prof. Hand-in-your-Books johns to return after school for being tardy. To explain to him that l3 hours from 3:10 turns the clock hands around to 9:10 in the morning is useless. lYe are expected to accept all this with a smile and respect our teachers. Even the little pleasure we can extract from a life of toil and hardship has been taken from us. Not many months ago we enjoyed music at our chapel services, being naturally musically inclined and possessing an appre- ciation of all the finer arts, such as music, drawing ftestimonials of which may be found upon study hall desks todayl, and rope skipping. Today we are deprived of our music in Chapel by an edict handed down from the grand council of the League of Nations, banishing the soothing' strains heretofore rendered by Professors Clemans and Evans. Our rope has been taken from us, and Dame Rumor has it that behind locked doors every afternoon Miss Best, Miss Looser, and Mr. Fibers are to be found jumping rope in the Superintendent's office. Enter again Despot Douglas. l,Vas it not at her command that the worthy thanes Cmeaning athletesj were removed from our athletic teams? An investigation conducted by our eminent attorney, Mr, Alfred O. Ander- son, has brought to light the startling fact that the grades of Reginald Denny May and Buster Keaton LaRue averaged 94? and 97? respectively. Realizing the importance of the subjection of these celebrities to further their own selfish cause and carry out their plans of general destruction, the council of tactless teachers concluded that it was altogether proper and fitting to deduct 30? from the grades of said supernumerated and sounde- nuinded subjects for conduct unbecoming to a student of XV. H. S.-such as Wearing a bow tie or a large brightly colored handkerchief. Often in our restless and most worried moments we are wont to wander about the locker rooms and corridors. But beware all you people who are thus inclined. For if the Student Council fstudents forced into military dutyj doesn't get you, Miss Beck, keeper of the royal spirits Qaromaticj must. In keeping with our sympathetic natures and all things humane, our parting vvord is to our underclassmen: To you, we open wide our symp- thetic hearts and place the fruits of our experience at your disposal. Bear not this burden which hangs so heavily upon your shoulders. X176 beseech you to carry on the work which we have started. It is for you, the under classmen, rather than the departing Seniors, to carry on the work which we have thus far so nohly advanced. It is in your power and it will surely be to your advantage to throw off the yoke of despotism and become a free and independent student body. Follow the example of that brave little band which stages a young French Revolution in Madamoiselle Looseris room every day. Let their bravery and their knowledge of what is right be an inspiration to you. l.ct your watchword be Carry On. DONNA R. SULLIVAN.

C. fErom asidej: HHello, Helen E. l XYh,v-why-why, Alice Zimmerman! NVhere ever did you come from? lVhat ever brought you to Vifashington? XVhere are you going??? I just arrived from Chicago to resume my position as Attorney General. I suppose you heard of my resignation after the impeachment of our old friend Iune Evans, but since that matter is successfully settled-here I am. And me?-Oh' Ilm Editor of the New York Times and just ran down here to get some inside dope on the big Impeachment of the President Scandal l I So you see how it all began. XVhen I met Alice in the Wlillard Hotel in XYashington that spring--several years ago, about 1939-I hadn't the slight- est idea that I would be lucky enough to meet any of my old class-mates of NV. H. S. It will probably even sound impossible to you. Oh well, I just can't help risking my good reputation by telling you, so here goes!! ' .Alice and I were having a lovely time when the hotel manager came to us and asked us to kindly repress our mirth-can you imagine that? I never will forgive Tiny Gersting for that! Yes, he was the Hotel Manager- having Esther xXvCll'lSt'Ill1 for his right-hand helper. It is rumored in Wash- ington that Esther is the brains of the bunk-house but, of course, we don't believe in gossip! . But when Tiny found out who we were, everything was lovely. After a few minutes of reunion we were escorted into the dining room where the head waiter, Paul Gillilan. went at once to consult Chick I-Iiener, the chef, as to our menu. lYasn't that just grand? Some very distinguished folks dined at the VVillard that evening, among whom were Ambassador and Mrs. Gamble Cformerly Kiss Harrisj. Chief lustice Noves, Mrs. Noves. and all the little Noises were there in grand splendor, Missionaries Bob Quinn, Jessie Flading, and Vera Speidel had just returned from an adventurous tour throughout the South Seas. The party was completed liv a group of old Grads who were touring the United States: Kenneth Bicry, Gertrude Alvey, Helen Connelly, Mr. and Mrs. Gene Hall fMrs. Hall being a society belle of Hanniballj. After a delicious dinner we were informed by one brilliant member of the party that we should attend the performance at the xmshingmon Theater that evening. Tiny said that was a splendid idea as he always had three boxes at his disposal-having one for himself. He also said that We would have Charles Caldabaugh, the head of the Gold and Blue Taxi Service, send several cabs for us. XVe were late getting started for the theater, due to the fact that Bobbie Martin had just arrived in XYashington in search of Albert Krauss. Bob said that Albert had owed him 31.50 for the picture money since 1924, and poor Bob had only Pete's I. O. U. slip for the amount. XVe induced Bob to accom- pany us te the theater. lVe just arrived as the curtain rose. The title of the play was A Kindly Actfi and who do you suppose was the leading man? No other than our Grumpy',-lValter Menekemeller! Yes, indeed, he was the leading man-- he lead a blind hcrse across the stage! The play being only a one-act play- the act just mentioned. the remainder of the evening's program was filled with several selections by the Dolly Blue Sisters who are noted the world over for thgir dancing. XVI? always did know that Virginia Hoffman and 'l'izzy Clemans were good dancers, but we never thought it would come to 62 that. They were accompanied bv the Spring-Sharp jazz Band, and sav-but did they know their stuff? VVell-ll ' i XVe later heard that this accomplished group brought their own electri- Lian--NN'eldon Stroud, stage manager-Bill Paul, and janitor--Bill Taylor. There really isn't any wonder they were successful! After the theater we went to the Rietz-Virginia Rietz's famous Second- lland Inn . XVe soon found Virginia had several helpers who were Henrietta l-Lose, Frances Reece, and Sarah Moser. It has often been said that women could not make a success at such occupations, but there are exceptions to the best of rules, The Inn was very clever, all quaint and everything! Vlfhile we were sipping our team it was suggested that each person tell all he knew of any member of the graduating class of '24, but that was amended. Instead of telling all he knew, we decided it would be better for each tell only part of what he knew. This is what we learned: The twins CMary Lou and Kate Carnahanj had established a school for stenogs because it seems they realized the need for efficient stenographers by their own work. Bob Rehm had founded a beauty shop on Ellis Island in order that the immigrants might have a Marcel upon entering the U. S. He was assisted by VVilliam Farrell. Helen I.ally was traveling in Egypt. XVillie Cowan had entered the business world and now owned the 'nost exclusive gift shop in Benwood. XVe always did say that VVillie knew her stuff, and with Irish Broverman as helper, it is no wonder she suc- ceeded. . Mary Emmons. Kathryn Custer. and Ada Hall were teaching in dear old XVheeling I-ligh. Don't you think the pupils enjoyed that delightful change? ' George Taylor was a dentist--what do you think of that? NVe under- stood that his trade was immense. due to the fact that his offices were perfect art galleries, each masterpiece being Taylor Made . Martha Kindelbergcr was making a wonderful success in Shakesperian drama. She had Mary Humphrey as coach and advisory so this, perhaps. helps to make her success more easily understood. Fred Amos and Eugene Maguire had invented a new spiritual radio, in which the performers appeared in spirit form. This company had the best artists obtainable to perform for them 3 among those making several thousand dollars for one solo were I.ouise Evans-the cornet soloist. Donald Gott- hardt-the violinist, and George Marines--the whistling soloist. Ethel Check, having completed her studies abroad. was now enchanting huge audiences with her wonderful piano playing. lust as we were about to leave the Inn, who should rush in with a tele- gram for Tiny but Edward Perry. He was the chief messenger boy of the company, having been in their emplov for many years after he had re- signed from coaching the Fulton Public School Indoor Football Team. Tiny said that Denny May had just been married and would arrive at the XVillard Hotel within a few hours. VVe were most excited at this and wondered who the lucky girl might be-- Mac , perhaps? Yes? Returning to the hotel we talked of the latest inventions of the year and were surprised when told that the Hall-Kfimmins corporations had secured the patent for Kid Blum's latest invention in games- the Submarine Base Hall --and Lillian Heusel's sanitary lipstick. Noticing a movie magazine, I thought I would glance through it. And what do you suppose I saw, the verv first thing? The cover was a very inter-- erting picture and showed great talent-the artist being Uonna Sullivan, of 63 whom we were very proud. .Xfter showing' this to the crowd, we all gathered round to hear more ahout our friends of 24. XYe found that the liditor of this magazine was lsahel Marvin, and her assistants were l.ena Foster and Margaret Senne. XYe understood that the Cotton-l'liener Follies were quite the rage, llelen llervev he-ing' considered the most heautilul girl ol' the company.

XYe noted that Dot llammat was the exclusive costume designer, while lfva llerd was the humorous playwright ol' the day.

All during the school year there are frequent meetings of blunior classmen, but in February and March it seems that those meetings become daily events. XYeary bod- ies, tired eyes, perplexed minds, heavily murdened souls, and withal Amysterious smiles, these are signs of junior activity and planning for the event of the year- the junior-Senior Prom! On that night the luniors are hosts to the Seniors and to the Faculty, and such hosts as they always are! ln the gayest of attire, they welcome their guests to a bower of loveliness where the artists of the class have devoted every talent to the beautification of the hall. En- chanting music, clever programs, witty speeches, and delicious food are bounti- tifully provided by the bluniors hosts, Also, once into the life of each Senior there comes an evening of colossal importance! That, too, is the evening of the Junior-Senior Prom. XVith the memories of their activity and efforts to make the Prom of the previous year a success, the same people can now doubly appreciate the one given for them. Of course, there is a vast amount of pleasure to be derived from plan- ning a festival of that sort, but it is positively thrilling to be one of the honor guests for whom all this festivity is prepared! Certainly the junior-Senior l'rom of 1924 promises to come up to all expectations. A bevy of committees has been hard at work for weeks to make it the best prom ever given by any Junior Class in the valley high schools. As usual, the party is to be given at the Scottish Rite Cathedral. june sixth is the date selected. The orchestra is to be in a bower of flowers and Gold and Blue streamers. The rest of the hall is also to be elaborately decorated in keeping with the occasion. The efiect is sure to be beautiful, for George Edwards is chairman of the decorating committee. An extensive and interesting program has been arranged. Some of the numbers are decidedly novel and will of necessity be tremendously popular. Stanley Cunningham, as chairman of the program committee, vouches for the rest of the evening's fun. Music is to be furnished by Mango's orchestra. XVith the executive ability of Mary Eliza Noyes, general chairman, to keep everybody busy and interested, the Prom will surely be the gayest of events. The winds may blow, The rain may fall, But blithe are those NYithin the hall.

This Annual has been produced under just such careful guidf ance and workmanship, through the con tinuous and indefatigable efforts of Miss Nora E. Miller, whose keen mentality, fervent interest, artistic sense, and re- sourceful versatility have been the means by which this year's Record has been published. To her we offer these inade- quate words of our heartfelt appreciation. XYhatever is faulty in this Annual we attribute to ourselves, and whatever is attractive and excellent we attribute to Miss Miller. As we, in our several sta! tions, live out the long years that lie before us we shall frequently feast our eyes and refresh our fondest memories MISS KDKA li. Mll.l.FR by browsing over the ever verdant pages of this book, and at 'each perusal we shall renew our gratitude to her, for she has made all this possible. il. IZRADFORD NOYES, leditor-in-Chief. DOING THE WORK UR XYORK IS DONlfl The fruit of our efforts is in your hands. Nothing has been left undone to make this year's Annual the very best that has every been published by a graduating class of XYheeling High School. Several new features have been added. Leather covers for the Seniors, baby pictures, and class room photographs are only a few of the many improvements. Most of those connected with the staff have devoted the greater part of their time since january planning and working out the perplexing details that have necessarily confronted us. NYC are repaid for our efforts, however, by the satisfaction and pride we possess as we carefully turn the pages of this book. XYe would be repaid many times more were we assured that our efforts are appreciated by those for whom this annual is published. ' XYe take this means of thanking those who have so kindly aided us and who have never failed to respond to our call for assistance. Especially do we appreciate the advice and constructive criticism offered by Miss lilizabeth lliggins, who has always shown her willingness to aid us. ln conclusion, may we express our appreciation to those people who helped us when unexpected and last minute emergencies arose: Mr. Heyl, whose artistic talents were so kindly given, the Commercial Department for its cooperation in helping ns get our manuscripts typed, Mr. Ebers for his timely assistance in printing kodak pictures. XYe also desire to compliment Marian Haller and Kenneth Cameron for having won the prizes in the art contest. Uur parting word is to the members of the Junior Staff. May they profit by the experience they have had this past year, and may the Record next year be a tribute to the staff and to the school-this is the sincere wish of the Senior Staff. 74 4 ilitnrialz WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE IN HIGH SCHOOL? S CiRAI'JUA'l'ION 'l'l'lli END? Truly, it is but the beginning. Then we begin to live our own lives: but we do not, as some people think, attain ' the highest peak of success! Are we going to drop into the first position that opens before us and become fixtures for the rest of our lives? NYC hope not. Are we going to be ships without definite harbors, sailing here and there, never seeming to get or stay anywhere? XVQ trust not. XVe must put something big before us and work for it as we have worked for four years for that one night-the night of graduation. Y College is :1 good port to steer for. That we cannot enter immediately is no reason why it should be classed among the impossibilities of life. XYhen we reach our twenty-second or twenty-third birthdays we shall, perhaps, realize that we do not know so much after allg that we are not the kmmwledge-crammed students we fondly imagined ourselves to be on the night of our graduation. 'XYe shall feel that we have only begun to learn, only begun to have caught a fleeting glimpse of what might be in store for us. It is then that we discover that a college course would mean much to us. By this time we should know how slowly we advance without education. The road to success is paved with education, a thin layer of high school training covered with a smooth finish gained from a complete college course. Thus, to attain success, we must almost invariably pass over the rough high school road. Travel over the smooth college surface, however, insures a much more rapid journey. This does not mean that without a college educa- tion success is unattainable. But how much easier it is for us to assert our- selves when we have a background of facts, how much uuicker we rise to worthy positions, how much sooner we attain our goals! The door now stands open before each of us. In the distance, perhaps, we see our goals-our life ambitions. From here on, there are two roads leading to our futures. The high school road is fairly smooth, but lacks a well-defined course. From here it looks to be the shorter of the two. NVE: glance at the college lane but are apt to conclude that it is out of the ques- tion-appearing. as it does, to be more of a detour. But, graduates, let us not forget that the four year detour--representing our college years-brings us out on the main highway. smooth and level, over which we may more easily advance to our set goal. Choose wisely, graduates! Realize the vast importance of vour decision! Ul.l.OXYlNti the custom of most High School and College Publications we offer for future consideration some very few suggestions for improv- ing our High School. These suggestions we give most kindly and modestlv. llere they are: l. Department of .loui'nalism. 2. Department of Printing. 3. Music Studio. 4-. 'Department of Art. 5, Complete gymnasium conveniences. o. Combination locks on lockers. 7. llcautify ing the interior of the building. 75 MADAMOISELLE LOOSER GREAT PLEASURE was bestowed upon us when we were permitted to interview Miss Looser concerning her career as instructor for the past years. XYe found that Miss Looser secured her degree from Munich Seminary, Bavaria. Germany, forty-six years ago. The 'Seminary was the best of its kind at that time, and it has never lost its splendid repu- tation. In 1882 Miss Looser arrived in XYheeling. After a few weeks she secured the position as. teacher at Ritchie District School, having at that time twenty pupils, under her supervision the school began to grow rapidly and at the time that Miss Looser retired from Ritchie School there were ninetv-six pupils enrolled. Eleven years ago Miss Looser entered our school and she has since that time shown just what a capable and efficient instructor means to the pupili ,and to the name of the school. During the time spent in XVheeling High School Miss Looser has been teaching French and German, as she is one of the few fortunate people who are able to speak three foreign languages. Sh: is thoroughly at home in the French, German, and Swiss Languages. In spite of her success. Miss Looser is very modest and can scarcely be induced to speak of her past school work. But on one subject she is quite out-spoken, for Miss Looser has never become reconciled to the fact that last September she was so ill that she could not come to school for three days And those three davs are her only absences from her school duties in hem forty-six years of teaching experience. It gives the graduating class of ,24 great pleasure to know that they were tutored by one who is as loyal, true-hearted, efficient, and lovable as Mam'selle I,.ooser . At the close of this school year Miss Looscr retires from active service as a teacher, but her success will continue to be seen in those whom she has taught. WHEELING HIGH SCHOOL DEPARTMENT OF RELIGIOUS EDUCATION URING THE SCHOOL YEAR OE 1923-24 an elective course in Bible has been offered in XYheeling High School. The classes meet three periods a week for two years, one unit of credit is granted for this amount of work. The American conception of the separation of Church and State in authority and of their mutual interdependence in promoting human welfare is made practically operative in XVheeling High, so that this school feels some right to distinction in offering religious Education. This fortunate situation has come about partly through clearer understanding that not only intelligence, but moral integrity, can be produced by proper education. lt is also the result of a deepening conviction that moral integrity is indispen- sable, both to the highest self-realization of the individual, and to the happiest human relationships. The roots from which have sprung the finest of our concepts of manhood, of human relationships, and of our social fabric are to be looked for in the Bible. The Biblels ideal man is the man of the beatitudes, and the Bible ioints the wav to perfecting his relationships with his fellows-a way never l - 4 , ' . ti- be replaced, never excelled, and that will finally solve the difficultiesbe- tween men. The rules of tolerance, direct dealing, choice, co-operation, charity, and self-sacrifice are set forth here. On knowledge such as this the churches of the future will build at a compounding rate the whole moral structure of our civic, industrial, and social life. About thirty-five students have been enrolled in the XYheeling High Bible courses this year, and the work has been conducted by the very able instructor, Mr. Charles E. Bates, Secretary and Treasurer, Ohio County Council of Religious Instruction. 76 Qt lf.. QW If Q91 vb 't A Pfwxv Q ww!

XVe have conquered all opposition and have at last reached our goal by establishing a cafeteria. Many people may wonder just who is responsible for this great accomplishment. XYe find that the credit of this splendid work cannot be given to one, but to many organiza' tions, clubs, and individuals: but the greatest amount of praise :CIOCS to the lloard of liducation who, of course, said yes and paid the bills. So, after long discussions, the cafeteria was established. Our cafeteria is managed by Miss Ross, gi leading dictetian and the Head of our Home Economics Department. Each luncheon is planned with several points in mind. First. we must have food that is necessary and nourishing for the growing boys and girls: second, the food must be served as attract-- ively as possible in order that 'the boys and girls will eat itg third, the amount must be sufficient to satisfv the appetites of growing boys and girls: an'l fourth, the food must be served at a minimum price. Each point is thought- fully carried out, and the results are surprising.

An organization of this sort is always the subject of divided opinion until it has proved itself worthy of the authority vested in its hands. So it was with the Council during the year it was first established. However, within a few weeks of its introduction into our school routine, the organization had not only shown itself to be an asset to the school, but almost a necessity. Its presence is now one of the many things which places XVheeling High on the highest plane of school efficiency. In many schools the Council consists only of Senior and Junior students, with one representative for each of the two under-classes. In the case of our own Council. the classes are given representation on a fairer basis. Each thapel section has one representative in addition to the representatives at lz-rge elected by each class. These students are all of the best standards themselves, so their work has done much to keep locker rooms in better order, to prevent loitering and petty thievery in the locker rooms, and to stimulate better school spirit in general. XVith the advent of the cafeteria, a tremendous burden has been lifted from the Council, but the promised increase in enrollment next year presents a most perplexing problem for solution. VVith faculty and student cooperation, however, we shall even find the Council equal to this emergency. IT ISN'T YOUR SCHOOL-IT'S YOU. lf you want to have the kind of a school l.ike the kind of a school you like, You needn't slip your toys in a grip And start on a long, long hike. You'll only find what you left behind, For there's nothing that's really new. It's a knock at yourself when you knock your school, It isn't the school-it's you! Real schools are not made by people afraid Lest somebody else get ahead. XVhen every one works and nobody shirks You can raise a school from the dead. And if while you gain your 'personal aim, Your neighbor can gain his, too, Your school will be what you want to see' lt isn't the school-it's you! .7 -Exchange. 87 THE GIRL RESERVES --sg- all U,-4: .

The XYheeling lligh Club has just completed its third suc- cessful year of activity, and at present has an enrollment of twenty-five. During this year an elaborate party was given in honor of the High School athletic teams. Then the Hallowelen party, held in the Y. M .C. A., proved a most enjoyable event. Several union banquets have been given by the clubs from XYheeling. Union, XYarwood, and Triadclphia High Schools. The basketball teams were entertained with a banquet and bowling party: This affair proved unusually successful. Several prominent speakers have addressed the local club. The Y. M. C. A. Chinese Field Secretary spoke to the four Hi-Y Clubs at a seven o'cloclc breakfast held at the Y. M. C. A. this past winter. The speech was of especial interest and educational value.

Formerly these groups spent all their elliorts in a study of parliamentary rule and methods for conducting meetings. l.ast year this was found impractical, so two smaller organizations were lormed by selecting' as charter members the best Senior and junior English students. The purpose of each organization is identical. The plan is not merely to produce plays or various programs of that sort, but to train pupils in the technique ot those activities that they may become more efticient in all their other work. Members of these organizations are to use every possi- ble opportunity to speak in public, to take part in other club work, and in every way to develop abilitv for leadership. The results can best be deter- mined by studying the members of the club and their individual accomplish- ments. The president of the society is also president of the -lunior Class, a member of the Student Council, a member of the debate teams, and has ap, peared before the student body in Chapel on several occasions. The vice- president is school yell leader and Hi-Y president. The secretary is one ol' our most active debaters. and the treasurer is known to have ability in stag.- Work. The society lists among its members the president of the Spanish Club, advertising' manager of the RECORD, five members of the debate teams, as well as members of every other club and activity in the school.

This fact has helped to promote interest in that department not only in the school, but throughout the entire community as well. The many public appearances of the musical organizations have always won most enthusiastic applause. All of the musical organizations have favored us with frequent appear- ances at school chapel exercises and at special programs. The State Teachers' Association in November. various Music VVeek programs, and several con- certs enabled the public to enjoy their music along with the students. In addition to the rehearsals, every member of every musical club must take a course in Music Appreciation. These classes meet regularly for the purpose of studying the history and development of music. Demonstrations of types of music are given to help in this work. Special music, rhythm, and the general principles of technique all come in the course. This appreciation study has not, however, been limited to the develop- ment of those specially gifted people who are members of these organizations. During the first semester Mr. Steckel devoted part of chapel time each week to lecture on music. lle conducted a systematic study of various musical instrumentsg musicians were brought to the school to demonstrate each instrument. so that no High School pupil can now honestly say that he doesn't understand orchestra methods or that he isn't able to identify the yarious instruments. lYe even know whose duty it is to turn the music, and where the best players sitl lYe are now eagerly awaiting the furnishing of our studio, for we all feel that music plays a most important part in a successful, happy lifeg and the place to learn to enjoy music is in school, when we are at an impression- able age. No, by the study of music we don't mean the development of talentg but we do mean the mental and spiritual training necessary to enjoy and understand this most wonderful of the arts. And that is why we want a music studio and even larger appreciation classes for lVheeling High! 99 URCHICSTRAX THE ORCHESTRA Hli ORCHESTRA this year includes forty students. Quite a number of these people are experienced, it is true, but a great many are playing for the hrst time. liven some of the more experienced players have never done :my orchestra work. At present, eight different musical instruments are represented. The music played by the orchestra is all of the highest type-opera r-elections. overtures, and the lighter classics, no jazz of any kind is permitted in the orchestra repertoire. 'l'he orchestra work, as a unit, is noticeable for sureness of attacks, precision of release, and all those hue points which are expected of professional organizations, but which are so seldom found among amateur players. Because of these things. the High School Orchestra has won much favor- able comment both from individuals and groups before which they have appeared and also from the press of the city. During the State Teachers' Association here, the Seventy-fifth Annivers sary Celebration, and Music XYeek, the orchestra was prominently featured. 'I'he Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs, the Chamber of Commerce, and various tixic clubs have also been entertained by the orchestra. Of course, the orchestra has always helped to make our school programs more enjoyable? 'l'he Senior Play, the Debates, and Chapel exercises have all been made more successful because of the orchestra music.

Seven regulars who repre- sented XX'heL-line' High School on the gridiron in 1922 did not report for practice last September, having completed their high school careers. llap Mctiill, veteran end. and Bus Laliue, backtield, suttered injuries during the tirst two games on the schedule. Mctlill was out for the remainder of the season. XVaryvood, first team played, was the lirst victim, SAO. 'Vriadelphia came next and out-lucked us, 7-fi. securing the tirst win over the tiold in the history ofthe school. Moundsvillc out-passed us 12-0. Both of their counters were the direct result ol' forward passes. lt was Moundsville's tirst victory over XVheeling. Fairmont fell, 13-0, in a second-half rush by the Stobbsmen. Denny May and Chick lliener starred. Although completely out-played in every department of the game, Linsly scored a touchdown in the last minute of play and beat the Stobbsmen, 7-3. 1Yheeling' gained 150 yards, by' rushing, to l.insly's 5-l. l.insly's victory marked their tirst win over the Gold in four long years. Three hundred XY. ll. S. students filled four coaches of a special train and journeyed to Parkersburg to see the tiold swamp the Big Reds, 1922 State Champs, 14-0. Perry, May, and lleiner starred. Minus hve regulars. XYheeling' held the strong lluckhannon eleven to a 0-0 score. The lliener brothers played well for llhecling. On 'Ihanksgiving Day XYheeling High's football team, before a holiday crowd ot' 53,000 people that jammed the lsland Athletic Field, defeated Bellaire Iligh, conquerors of 1.insly and Martins Ferry. The Final score was 12-0. Denny and Cliick scored the touchdowns. Bellaire, previous to the Turkey Day g.I:un-g-, had claimed the 'Yalley Championship. They based their claim to the title on the fact that they had defeated l.insly, conquerors of XVheeling. Martins I errys2victors over l.insly and Bridgeport-the team which scored a 32-o victory over 'l'riadelphia. XVheeling s clean-cut victory over Bellaire I ut us in a Lfood position to claim the title. Hill Stobbs coached the 1923 eleven. llildreth Rider acted as assistant coach.

On the XYheeling floor the locals outplaved the Green and XYhite and won lo-12. Sistersville opened the season here and boarded the ll. and O. the following' morning sniarting under their lirst defeat of the year, having' howed before Captain XYerner and Company 20-8. Moundsville entertained the XYheeling quint and presented Coach Klein with a 24-5 victory. XYar-- vqood fell next, lo-12. 'l'hursday, ilan. ll, was a hanner day for XYheeling High students. Un that day the Spencer girls, champions of NYest Virginia in 1922 and undefeated for over two years, fell hefore the well-drilled XYhee1- ing team in an extra-period game, 24-22. listher XX'erner was high point scorer for the Qame. 'l'he close guarding of Clara llamill and Kathryn Bell featured. Bellaire journeved across the beautiful Ohio the following' evening and returned on the short end of a 22-20 score. 'l'he Red and Black led for over three-quarters of the game. llertha Kaiser scored tive tield goals in the second half of this game. Kathryn Irhy scored the winning basket in the last ten seconds of the contest. Parkersburg' girls travelled many miles for their medicine, swallowing a hitter dose, 23-17. Second Half Thursday evening, Feh. 21, the XYheeling quint journeyed to XVarwood and lost a heart-lmreaker. 16-15. This game evened the count at one victorv apiece. Parkerslnirg girls. not satisfied with a 23-17 defeat and determined that two weeks of diligent practice had henefited them materially. invited the XYheeling girls to invade their gym and lock horns with them for the second time. 'l'heir second defeat was even more decisive than the first and we left their city on the long end of a 22-9 score. On the return from the VVood county metropolis, the XVhee1ing quint dropped off at Sistersville and paid their rcspects to the team representing' the oil city. Score-XVhee1ing 33: Sistersville 13. Bellaire entertained the locals next. and forced the Gold to the limit to secure a 19-18 win. Moundsville, winners of the XVest Liberty Tournament, furnished the closing attraction. The locals won, 33-7. Tournament At the Spencer 'l'onrnament, March 6, 7 and S. the local team drew W'arwood for their opponent in the first round.

The Gold lost to Spencer, 30-lb, in the tri-finals, after having played and defeated two of the strongest teams in the state. listher XYerner was named center on the second all-state team. Bertha Kaiser and Clara Hamill were awarded positions on the third team, and Mary Ilamm and Kathryn Irby were given honorable mention. BOYS' BASKETBALL SEASON T THE OPENING UF THE 1924 BASKETBALL SEASON Vfheeling boasted of a likely looking squad, as six letter men, as well as some very capable reserve material, remained from last year. Following the examinations in january, La Rue and Captain May were declared ineli,Q'ible because of scholastic delinquencics. These two personages had been holdinp regular berths on the varsity. Their loss, however, was not as keenly felt as was expected. Their places were filled by reliable- sub-- stitutes. l'aull Spring acted as Captain for the remainder of the year. just before the second Sistersville encounter, Broverman, varsity center, had to lay out with a bad.foot. Later he was dropped for the remainder of the season. A glance at the season's record will show that Wheeling was defeated but four times- --twice by Bellaire, once by Shinnston. and once by Warwood. At the same glance one may see that the boys hold double victories over Cathedral, Moundsville. I.insly, Sistersxtille, Parkersburg, and a single victory over VVarwood. A perusal of the record will bring to light the fact that XYheeling was never defeated by more than three points, which means that they were never badly beaten and certainly never completely outelassed. NVheeling entered the State Tournament held at Huckhannon with little tour- nament experience. Thev were classed as rank outsiders. The Gold, how- ever, weathered the first and second rounds by defeating XVelch and Blue- field, respectively. ln the tri-finals Fairmont was eliminated 19-9. ln the semi-finals XVheeling met Grafton. The down-staters started with a rush that carried them into the second quarter with a 16-0 lead. The game ended 23-21 in favor of Grafton. This game shall long be remembered because of the fighting comeback of the Gold which only fell a little short of putting a XYhec-ling High team in the finals. A great deal of the success of the past basketball season belongs to Coach Hill Stobbs. Not discouraged bv the loss of three regulars and six second :-tring players due to scholastic difficulties, Coach Stobbs put on the hard- wood floor one of the fastest, scrappiest, pluckiest quints that ever wore the Old Gold and Blue. The team was under the very capable management of Burt Sauvageot.

Burt Sauvageot B AS KETBALL-SECOND TEAM Rlilllfl' for what the first teams have done in athletics is often con tributed in a narrow-minded way. How the first team was developed is not given much thought. One thinks that the coach has developed ii. True enough! But not alone. He has as his assistants those who have answered the call for basketball candidates. After failing' to make the first squad, these boys have continued to come out and go through all the drudgery of basketball practice, receiving little compensation in return. The second team of XYhe-:ling High has maintained an enviable record. The defeats suffered were few and far between. However, the past history' of the so-called scrub teams show that none have encountered the difficuls ties that the team of '24 had to face. At the time of reckoning, the Lord High Executioneru found almost the entire second squad wanting in knowl- edge, and, in consequence, declared them ineligible. But not even a blow such as this succeeded in discouraging the scrubs . Coach Stobbs issued a second call for recruits and these new candidates, together with those who had evaded the disastrous cuts, were developed into another winning team. These fellows who came out regularly to practice deserve much credit for what thev have contributed to the success of the team that has represented XVheeling' this vear.

Track is destined to become a major sport in this district and as such it is up to the Old tlold and Blue to develop more interest.

A majority of the games resulted in defeats for the Stobbsmen and the ehalnpionship cup, won by the liold last year, was relinquished to Martins lferry with nary a spot on it . The past, however, has been forgiven and forgotteng and the attention of all of us is centered upon next year's diamond squad. The ehanees for another championship team this year seemed excellent when six regulars from last year answered the eall for candidates. Our expec- tations were greatly strengthened when Captain Spring and his men turned back Bellaire in the first game played. The Gold played an uphill game and emerged vietors, 0--l. The Red and Black led at one stage, 4-2, but were unable to hold the advantage l'aul Spring hurled for the locals and was opposed by Brown. Poor fielding by both nines detraeted from their per- tormanees. -lust before the team took the field against Martins Ferry, both XYl1CL'lll'lg' pitehersvs lienny 'l'aur and Paul Spring--were declared ineligible, both having played inter-seholastie baseball four years, previous In 1924. This left Coach Stobbs without the services of even one experieneed pitcher. The brunt of the pitching burden fell upon the shoulders of Frank llelmbright. Frank hav: had little previous experience on the mound, but as a result of faithful prae- tiee and determination has developed into a fairly reliable piteher. l-le is only a lfreshman, and so gives promise of becoming a real twirler. l'le has been assisted by XYayne Strielclin, Stanford Meyers, and XX'alte1' Sneddon-N all inexperienced, ln looking' over the seores of the past season we find two that furnish us with a mighty good reason for whispering Ain't baseball grand? Our oldest and greatest rivals, l.insly and Bellaire, bit the dust before the inex- perieneed Stobbsmen, 12-6 and 6-4, respectively. Linsly proved no maten for the loeals and was never dangerous, Rellaire at times threatened, but were held in eheek by the veteran Paul.

For many, travel means only to visit the show-places of Europe, for others, travel means America first. then Europe. Fortunately, there are hosts of Americans who have come to realize that despite thc romantic glamour cast over foreign countries by his- tory, there are no more wonderful places to see and no more interesting people to know anywhere in the world than those right here in the United States of Xmerica. lint. as we admitted at the first of this sketch, many of us find it impos- sible to learn these things by actual contact with those communities. Oh, then fortunate is the person who can be Exchange Editor of his high school paper! There are papers from Oregon and Florida, from Maine and from t alifornia: there are magazines from Canada, Hawaii, Alaska, and England. From the ROl'ND UI' we learned that Texas is not a state of cowboys, Indians, and cactus alone: from the LUMBERJACK we found that people out in XVashington know how to build beautiful new cities almost over-night: from the COMET and the CENTR:Xl.lA we discovered that, while summer comes to Wisconsin and tru Michigan, the winter snow carnivals must be marvelousl The CYNOSURE and the ORANGE AND BLACK from the Dakotas make ns wonder what it would be like to see vast stretches of plains where there are no houses for miles Our own over-populated section makes that seem doulilv inviting, From the TREE CITY BREEZE of lndiana we hear of a courthouse where a life-sized tree is growing right up from the top of the tower. The BLUE AND GRAY from Robert A. NValler High School of Chicago and the PIONEER from the Manhattan Trade School of New York City bring with their long lists of local high schools give a partial understanding of the size of those great cities. Then there are papers from every community in lYest Yirginia, from the BOOK QTRAI' of Charlestown and HIGH LIFE of Fairmont to the mimeographed six-bv-eight inch sheet from Lost Creek. XVhen we read of the trials and tribulations some high schools face in puiulishineg a periodical, it makes us wonder whether or not we could stand a similar strain. Then again, there are schools by the score where the papers :are edited bv the llournalism Departments and printed by the Printing anal Lithographine' Departments. In fact, we know of no phase of RECORD work which is quite so fasci- nating as this department. No. it wasn't entirely to further the cause of the RECORD that we collected exchanges from forty-seven states in the Union, as well as from foreign countries! fArkansas seems to have no stu- dent papers, or we'd have made it forty-eightj Our efforts are more than rtpaid as we study the map on the opposite page and look at all the marked cities. Every one of those places is on our mailing list. And because of that fact, we have learned that high school pupils are the same the world over. XYe all have problems to face-notebooks, book reports, exams, and flunks: but we all have our joys. too-parties, athletics, dramatics, scholarship recog- nitions, and friendships. After all, that's why we lil-'e this work. Somehow it seems to raise the curtain so that we can see for miles and miles, even beyond the borders of our own country, and everywhere we seem to see and to feel friends! 119 4 Qlalrnhar .

This startling statement is ta- ken from Bulletin No. 34 of the U. S. Bureau of Education. Who's VVho in America , which lists more than 20,000 successful living Americans contains the names of 87 times as many high school graduates and 800 times as many college grad- uates as there are those who have had only grammar school instruction. NVhat is the answer? It can only be this: You will suc- ceed in life in proportion to how well you are prepared. Just beyond the echo of the next clock-tick-just behind the next leaf of the calendar-just back of the dawn of the new day and of many such dawns that are to come, lies the most interesting future in all the world- YOURS. Marietta College-historical in name and achievements-has been training men and women for leadership and lives of usefulness since 1835. The col- lege is located in beautiful old Marietta where one enjoys life while preparing for the better things of life. lst Student: Did you get the second question in History? 2nd Student: No, 3rd Student: How far were you from the right answer ? 4th Student: Four seats. I stole a kiss the other night, My conscience hurts, alack! I think Iill go again tonight And put the darn thing hack. Can You Imagine riilllllllly Cotton six feet three? Marie Front weighing 100 pounds? Bud Noyes resolving never to have another tardy slip? Kathryn Harris being quiet? Sara Hartenstein serious? The teachers not assigning lessons? Mr. Kossuth: How do you want your picture taken ? Dot McKee: I want my feet to show. Mr. K.: Just a minute, I'll get my group camera.
