Allison. went to as- sume the duties of High School Prin- cipal of the iVarren City Schools. The school system here was so well organ- ized that what otherwise miprht have been a very diiiicult undertaking: prov- ed to be a pleasant one. In the fall of 1915, there was added to the curriculum, Manual Training. Mr. Shatter of Galion was employed as instructor in that work. His work proved to be very satisfactory as did that of his successor, Mr. Thurman Black of Shelby. A course in sewing was arranged for the girls. So, when the boys of a grade were out of the room for Manual Training the sewing class was in progress for girls. The pupils of the sixth, seventh and eighth grades were required to take the work, but for those in high school it was elective. Both these courses proved to be very popular among the pupils. In the spring of 1925 because of the de- pleted condition of the treasury it was voted to discontinue these two courses until such time as we could occupy the new building. When that time CJan- uary 4, 19263 came, again the time of resuming the work was deferred. When they are resumed n thorough course in Home Economics will be provided for. This can now be done because of the fine equipment in the new building. We have the equipment for Manual Training. If Vocational Agriculture be the course selected a little additional equipment will be needed. From 1915 on the school progress was satisfactory and the enrollment in- creasing at a normal rate until the numbers became so large that addition- al rooms were needed. First a two- room, temporary building was erected. This served to take care of the increas- ing numbers for a short time, when it was evident that u large building would be a necessity. Actual work on the construction of the new building was begun in March, 1925. Under the efficient management of Architect G. E. Scott and Mr. Shultz, Superintendent of Construction for Baker and Shindler, General Con- tractors, the work progressed so rapid- ly that we were enabled to occupy the new quarters, January 4-, 1926. Wil- lard now has as good equipment as any district of its size in northern Ohio.

SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY CContinued from Page 175 Lochinvars' sad fates I suddenly was stricken with horror for there before my eyes was Harriet Futerer in a Flor- ida lagoon, trying to escape the two jaws of a hungry alligator and a bank- rupt real estate dealer. Poor child, I thought: better let the alligator get you. Then :i cold spray of salt water struck my eyes and I realized that I was gazing into the English Channel. And therc, struggling with the icy cur- rent was Tullis Mcflreight, coughing up sharks and cuttletish nt every breath. But to my vast delight she at last reached shore and found that dangling from one foot was a serene appearing lobster. Leaving Tullis to her victory and the lobster, I looked for more pic- tures but suddenly I became aware of a Trojan warrior knocking me on the head with a club. Terrified, I started out of the cavc on the run, leaving the remaining Senior's fates still unreveal- ed and receiving blows on the head from each warrior as I did so. VVith n start I awoke and found myself sit- ting on the floor in front of the rock- ing chair in which I had fallen asleep while studying Virgils Anead. The sharp arm of the chair was striking my head each time it rocked back and forth. Goodness, thought I, suppose those prophecies should come true!

Secretary of Arrow Club, member of Rhodora Triangrle Club and possessor of a copy right on laughter. Robert, the greutleman, stately and tall, Has u habit of always trying to stall, How much he studies you can't tell But he always gets by very well. Poor lbbie never eats a thing, That is the song she always singsg But if she lives up to this rule, NVhy is she the plumpest girl in school? Jene with eyes of blue and voice so soft Fearing a laugh holds herself aloof. Oh! said she, do let the joke be On the other fellow, but not on me. She powders, paints, primps and curls, Then she's oft' with a very brisk whirl: With shoulders back and head high, Just look, Catherine is passing by. What is so rare on this April day, NVhen all longing some prank to play, As to see Marguerite with dignity and pride, Right down the banister to slide. Marion and Marjorie, the sisters so dear, When needed, they're always nearq Kind, studious, cheerful and sweet, And for friends, they eanlt be beat. Dorothy, the precise and dignified, She may well carry her head with pride, Has she not four years with nothing but E's? A record the whole school to amaze. Violet is distant, some may say, But she isn't really far awayg And once you know her you can Without or with ottenee to friend or foes, 1 sketch the world exactly as it goes. Girls' Glee Club.

Without a doubt the wittiest boy in higrh school, with a droll way of making bright remarks that keeps his compan- ions in fits of laughter. SENIOR JINGLES Prepare to laugh and be gray, For Mardel is with us this very day: Here with all her wit, Laugh on, you just can't quit. Paul, a husky farmer lad, great, Hurry and scurry and never late, ls he slow and afraid of work? Why, he was never known to shirk. Tut wants a good time, just pleasure Vl'ith no books, whcre she's at leisure You will always find her at the shew, Even if her lessons have to go. Evelyn the musician of our class, No one yet has been able to surpass As pianist, she is certainly grand: And as editor, quite high she stands. I-lark! NVhat is the sound? Surely Morry is on the ground. A eoronc-t's sweet note we hear, As around him they crowd near. Mary is such a little girl, But best talker in the worldg She surely can make a noise, Especially when her subject is boys. Dear little Eloise, so good and kind, Another like her would be hard to find. Children's favorite and high school pet, We love her dearly, yes, you bet. Rudy, the football vampire great, Pouneing on others at a terrible rate, Forward boys, onward with a smile, Help Capt. Rudaeille gain another mile. Faye, the praised poet of the class, Has won much honor in the past I-lark! Here comes our sister Stacy, Scattering! sunshine along the way, Dead in love with every girl, Yet not the most popular in the world. Hannah, one of the dearest girls in school, Is dependable and never breaks a rule: She is as honest and good as gold, And her entertainment never grrow: old. I-larry B, the very life of the school, ls not at all careful of rules. He's always up to some prank, That is why teacher's are tempted fu spank. Spellbound and fascinated we sat, As her voice roared or came with a snap, Or else lowered soft and sweet- Annette, the reader is on her feet. XVhy is Harriet so reserved and quiet, Like the wee hours of the night? Shh! Don't you really know? She has a very dignified beau.
