X5f!::43' Extracts at Random from a Senior Diary September, 1925--Up betimes and hastily donned apparel in an- swer to the bell from the center of learning. Hastened to class meet- ing, dreading the outcome that would ensue. Our fears do be well founded. O, shame! that fellow creatures should address each other in language so vile. One new member, Master Doty, hath entered our ran s. November, 1925-Partook of right royal entertainment in the roasting of weiners and marshmallows at the Roost of Buzzards. Mr. Davis, Master of Ceremonies, withal of jovial disposition and possessed of much wit, doth point out nature's beauties and the scenery as we go by. Thence homeward in company with Classmates, except as to one girl possessing hair of auburn, and masculine portion who did pre- fer to be conveyed townward in Mr. Davis' horseless carriage. September, 1926-To school again. We Sophomores have discov- ered evil intents on the part of the Seniors, but will express proper con- tempt by our calls of the lowly goose and the animal known as Feline. November, 1926-Thanksgiving party with all its merriment and goings on. We have the honor of holding forth a party for the first time in the new building. Right properly we do be chaperoned by Mr. Leath and charming sister. The hour being late we imbibed' delicious drink made from bean of cocoa tree and sundry other dainties spread in the commercial room. Thence homeward. January, 1927-Betook ourselves at the hour of seven to prepare for a bit of acting in the drama Bachelors Forever. Withal, we Sophomores are right ably assisted by the Class of Juniors, and we think the play a huge success, being zealously coached by Miss Pence. September, 1927-Our Class has weathered every gale with few disastrous results. Right faithful have we lived by our motto which sez: The elevator to success be not in working order, take ye the stairs. December, 1927-The footlights lure us ever with their call and we must needs respond with The Hoodoo. 'Tis drama filled with dark conspiracy, yet acted with much nicety by members of the Junior and Senior classes. April, 1928-Of a certainty you should have witnessed the play, Patty Makes Things Hum, -a play well worthy of such a company as we do be. May, 1928-We act as host to the Senior Class at a reception be- holden in the Presbyterian Church. Merrily did we give attention to a program of merit and repasts of dainty nature. September, 1928-In number ten we assembled ourselves back to the pursuit of knowledge. It is decided Master Dean Stewart shall be Grand Master of proceedings, Miss McCoskey, Asst. Grand Master, Miss Gregory, Official Recorder and Comptroller of the Currency. May, 1929-Funeral garments do be prepared for the lamenting graduates. Soon shall we be thrust in the cruel, cruel World-thence to sink or swim.

The cooling breeze of evening was dissipating the heat of the day and fanned my brow as I wondered aimlessly, hat in hand, along the city street. I did not know what to do. The wife and children were away for the hot summer months and I was alone. I strolled on down the street. A huge electric sign in the distance blinked and beckoned to me as I was drawn toward it. It was a movie palace de-luxe. I entered. The cool, clean air of the room was refreshing. I sank back into my seat with a sigh of content. The or- chestra lulled me into a delicious languor. In a few moments came the flash of the opening scene. A voice iloated across the air, and I was in another land-a land of bewildering adventure and bewitching re- ality. Amazed I rubbed my eyes and stared. The scene was in a garden -a beautiful garden. One could tell that it was southern California. Many people were there, walking along the flower-bordered paths or sitting at tables in shady nooks. But what surprised me most,-aston- ished me, was that I knew some of them. Dean Stewart, tall and grace- ful, was bowing over the hand of a beautiful woman. I didn't know her but I did know the two standing on either side. Helena Held, imp- ish and audacious, smiled at his manner. Elma Thomason, reserved and dignified, watched also. I had hardly made myself believe what I saw when I was surprised to behold two more couples join the group. Could it be possible that this dark haired beauty was Berniece McCos- key and this polished, aristocratic man at her side Fremont Conley? And there was Martha Gregory, her titian hair shining with a strangely dazzling luster, her hand resting gently on the arm of Dale Doty, whose judicial manner would, not permit him to unbend to any levity. Presently the crowd parted. At a little distance strolling slowly to- ward the central group came another surprise. Mary Margot Nehrig, tossing her curls light-heartedly, walking laughingly between tall, re- served Richard Rush, and Robert Painter, with the romantic looks and soulful eyes. The scene moved swiftly. Dean was in love with Jeanne Nor- mand. But so were Bob Painter and Fremont Conley. I watched them while they went through the vicissitudes of their love affairs-saw them, each one--sent out upon a quest of fame and fortune. Nor was I the only one who watched. Dale and Richard showed distinct dis- approval. Of the five girls I knew from old Williamsport High, some approved one suitor and some were for the others. Ultimately came the quest-the three going together after that e . v I-ff -- ,, H , . . . .. ,.........,..,.- -............,...,. .... . ....

The three were straggling along a rocky outcrop-where they rested from their exhaustion. The discovery of gold was accidental-a broken rock near the hand of one, the glint of yellow mental, now of such little value with their food and water gone. Then the rescue led by Dale and Richard. In that hour was formed, by the five, the circle of undying loyalty, sealed with suffering-greater than all obstacles. Then came the return to the city, the organization of the compa- nyg the men of wealth who would rob the five, partners now, of all their labor. At last the timely aid offered by the five girls of the old school. They are in a position to give financial aid and infiuence. They de- manded to be taken into the Loyalty Circle. Success, at last, comes to them all. The three who have loved meet to decide who shall go first to Jeanne Normand. Each wants to be the last, for love has changed-each has learned an age old'lesson-no love can endure that's based on desire for fame and wealth. They turn back to the ones who have proved themselves true friends-for nothing is greater than loyal friendship. For seven fast reels I loved and suffered, and fought and endured, with those ten friends of my youth. And I sighed happily as the last scene faded out, with the ten standing, hands clasped in the grip of the Circle, Yes, I said softly, Loyalty is best. Not only to the school we all loved so much, and to our friends, but to ourselves. For without loyalty to self we can not achieve the heights-we can never accom- plish that which we should. Loyalty -But some one was rudely shak- ing my arm. I turned, to see, indistinctly, an usher scowling at me. Come on, he growled, Wake Up! The show's been over for an hour. This isn't a hotel. I got to my feet and slowly walked to the street. My brain was in a whirl. Could it be real? Everything was so vividly portrayed, it surely was true. I sighed. True or not, one Word remained-Loyalty. In that magic scene all members of the class had proved them selves true to the teachings and principles of their school days. They were an honor to instructors in their loyalty to school, to friends, to self. A strange exaltation warmed my heart. The scene I had wit- nessed was merely a forecast of what the class would do in the future. The policeman at the corner gazed wonderingly at me as I strode past him, a smile upon my lips, my face uplifted toward the stars. ' . ,. Gregory '29 .

To Mr. Leath, the Seniors will the opportunity of again sponsoring such as the class of twenty-nine with all their energy, sweet tempers, angelic characteristics, and talent. To Coach Van Scoyoc are willed thermometers, electric fans, win- dow sticks, the latest heat regulating device, or what 'have you, to be used exclusively in the history room. To Miss Pugh, the Senior girls will the sole right to collect com- pacts, combs, amorous epistles, and other articles having tendency toward false vanity.

Elma Thomason kindly offers a generous portion of her quiet Ways, modesty, and methodical habits to Nellie Smith. To Ralph Strickland, Dean Stewart leaves his winning ways with the fairer portion of the student body, together with any old notebooks or equipment apt to be useful to said party.

Page twenty-one 1 -A - l junior Class History In the fall of 1926 twenty-four young men and Women, feeling very dignified because they were now in High School and because they were the first Freshman Class to enter the new building, embarked upon their four years' journey. Since you expect to find the lives of famous men and women in a history, I shall introduce to you the members of the Junior Class. The class president, Grady Swadley, Ezra, is undecidedf wheth- er he should become a jeweler or, since his great success in the Junior play, The Fortunate Calamity, an actor. Frederic Tilton, Fritz, is everywhere known by his happy dis- position. Margaret Dennis and Mary Foster have proved themselves true friends of the cause by selling candy at the basketball games. Marion Allen is our shy little gray-eyed chap, who came to us last year from Independence. Richard Painter, Dick, and Robert Miller, Icky Mick, are our two happy-go-lucky and inseparable pals. Icky has quite a difficult problem controlling his curls. Elizabeth Ross, possessed of musical ability, is always willing to contribute her talent to an entertainment. She is also an excellent student and actress. Rosella Goodrick, the shy little blue-eyed lass, is a favorite and honor student of the class. She carries the highest grades in the class as Well as having the most agreeable disposition. Byron Graham, Barney, so tall and slender, seemingly should be a business man, but he seems to prefer farming. George Downs, Boz, has proved himself a jewel to the Junior Class by his remarkable ability as a basketball player. Frances Collyer, although still very young, has shown tendencies toward becoming a beauty specialist. This fact is very plainly por- trayed by her period of make-up in the assembly room. Rose Chandler, who is especially interested in commercial work, won the first Gregg shorthand pin given this year. The little country boys, Lowell CBozzyJ and Raymond CBabyJ, true friends, are just two more of our happy little group. Robert Marlatt, Bob, the boy with the auburn hair, has Won recognition everywhere by his excellent reputation as a cheer leader. Russel Nehrig, Dutch, seems to prefer the back door for de- parture from the fair lady's dwelling, but we won't tell why. And last is Valeria Doty, just another member of the class. Now, friends, l have introduced to you our happy little group. The fact that we have nine fellows out for basketball, four of whom, Nehrig, Boswell, Graham, and Downs, are on the first team, is some- thing to be mentioned. Our class is also very Well represented in both' the Glee Club and Commercial Club. A,.. . ffl- f '!,1.,-.. ' -Q . . V. P.

The class officers for that year were: Estel Amick, President, Lynn Graham, Vice President, and Ralph Strickland, Secretary and Treasur- er. The principal social function was a Hallowe'en party given at the home of Mr. Hurley, the class sponsor. The topical question that eve- ning was: Where have the apples gone? Later, in the spring, the class had a party in the gym. Everyone invited a guest, which resulted in a few cases of-spring fever? ?? The next step on the stairway of knowledge was the entrance to the Sophomore Class with a firmer step. The class officers for this year were: Lynn Graham, President, Mary Held, Vice President, and Gene- va Marlatt, Secretary and Treasurer. A Hallowe'en party was given in the gym. Everyone came masked. Only twenty of the original twenty-six students remained. Juani- ta, their little blonde, Robert Day, David, and William have left Bingy and have entered the West Lebanon High School. Roy Jones left the class to go in search of education elsewhere. But their number has been increased by Ralph Carpenter, a sheik of Pence, Lucille Gray, Dora McKinzie, Maxine Dice and Donola Lewis, who have come from far distances to test our school. And now the other characters of this drama will be presented to you: Mary and Elbert, who excel in their ability to play their saxo- phones. Now Lynn, Charles, and Earl delight in reciting Latin. Nobody knows why, but they do. Virginia and Edith are sharks in Geometry, which no one would deny. Lyle and Lincoln are two brown eyed lads who shyly cast their glances about the room. Maxine Dice and Hester are the giggling pair of the class. Robert, Estel, and Ralph really get immense pleasure out of Geom- etry. Now there is Nellie, Doris, and Maxine, whose chief alibi is I for- got. Then there is the long andsshopt ,of it alil-Geneva Crowe and Ge- neva Marlatt, . 4, -r L' ,111 ' F- , i , L. M. S.

Lest you fafter living away from Bingyj shoulda forget your former classmates and friends, 1'm writing this little memoir for you to keep among your Schoolday Memories or some such sentimental booklet. Of course, you being a brunette, should have good reason for remembering the unusual supply of blondes boasted by our class. There are Elizabeth, Pearl, Berniece, Maragaret, Olive, and Helen. Their motto is: If you don't have curls of your own, get a per- manent! fAsk Berniece.J Then of the unfortunate brunettes are Frances, Josephine, Esther, LisBeth, and Pauline, for Mary, Eliza- beth, and Olive certainly do carry off the Latin grades. Of the boys there are two whom we see only occasionally, Lo- raine and Harry, then Robert and Richard, of whom it has been said: They never did profess to be Latin students anyway! Of course you remember Red Gregory, and fget this onej Morton has named his horse Josie, Lester and Keith must like our school to come 'way from Jordan township! Lorenze is our athlete Che plays basket- ball of coursel. Surely without description you remember Estel Amick, Robert Dee, and Joe Crane? Our total class enrollment appears to be twenty-three. Use your imagination as to how many of us will be Freshies next year? This Cto use Latinl is the finis at present, but, perhaps you'll get more news next year.

We won about 36 per cent of our games, among which were two vic- tories from West Lebanon and a defeat by Attica by only a small mar- gin. The Second Team was very successful for they succeeded in de- feating Attica twice. Their percentage was 66 2-3 per cent. In the Sectional Tournament, which was held at Attica, we drew Pine Village who had defeated us earlier in the season. We had a chance to win this one but, We Failed. Next year, however, we are planning to raise the percentage to about 7592.

Last fall We were undefeated. The school board has arranged for us to have a portion of the Ridenour farm as a permanent athletic field, and this certainly is appreciated by every one because We Were greatly in need of this. Mr. Van Scoyoc purchased for us nineteen new baseball suits and with this new equipment We are one of the best equipped teams in this section of the country.

The Purpose of Schools To live in a community without a school would be very undesir- able, mentally as well as physically. The school takes the child at the age of six. Eflicient teachers are secured to teach the many things necessary for the child's Weil being. The school's great purpose is to give every boy and girl an edu- cation. Therefore, the aims of education would be the purpose of the school. There is a definite need for goals in the field of education. Learn- ing, as received from the schools, always implies a change in the learner. Education looks always toward definite ends. The school is responsible for the physical welfare of the child, inasmuch as the child is in school the greater part of the time. Reas- onable health and strength are needed for efficient social participation. Physical training is the most common promoter of physical efficiency in our schools today. The school prepares the coming citizensi to be able through some particular work to support themselves. The pupil is given guidance and enlightenment by various subjects in our schools, through pro- jects, occupational contacts, and investigations. It is the duty and purpose of the school to develop interest and enjoyment in civic activities, reading, scientific hobbies, music, clubs, etc. The purpose and aim of the school, also, is to promote civic effici- ency. The school realizes the danger of irresponsible citizenship and offers such subjects as civics and history to acquaint the student with their civic responsibilities. The responsibility of the school for the moral development has long been recognized. The school offers a simplified but adepuate system of ethics. It works with the church in this aim. The school aims to improve home relations by means of home- making classes. The school gives the student the means of social communication. The individual requires an efficient means of expressing his own thoughts and feelings and interpreting the corresponding expressions of' other members of society. The school, therefore, is responsible for social progress. Therefore, the purposes of the school are to give the student the ability to meet the duties of citizenship and carry the burden of politi- Page fU'ty-ezlghf . i , V gf f x -.'

Chandler '30 History of Williamsport Schools It was in 1829, only two years after the platting of the first town lots, when the first school was held by an itinerant teacher, Sanford Cox, in the town of Williamsport. The schoolroom where this first school was held was a room in a log dwelling house and later was in a deserted cabin. From 1829 to 1850 the schools were financed by the subscription plan, those children attending being those whose parents were able to pay the tutor's price. Eventually a log cabin was set aside for a schoolhouse. The seats were of rough boards, without backs and faced the wall. The three R's were taught, punctuated by the weight of a hickory whip and a good right arm. A county Seminary building was finished in 1850, but owing to the lack of funds no form of educational training was held here. It was at this time that the Constitution of the State was revised to pro- vide for a direct tax against all property to support free schools. Williamsport, out of the funds derived from this direct tax, rented the Seminary building, hired a teacher, and held in the winter of 1850- '51 four months of school. This building was used as a schoolhouse until 1874, when, on account of crowded conditions, a brick school- house was built on Lincoln and Monroe streets. In 1885 Prof. S. C. Hanson was appointed superintendent of the Williamsport schools and he formed a Commissioned High School, con- sisting of a three-year course. Finallly, in 1897, the state required all commissioned high schools to have a four-year course and the local school complied with the requirement. Two additions were made to care for the growing schools and added courses, one in 1892 and the other in 1906. In 1920 the main building was destroyed by fire and only the smaller fireproof portion remained. In 1926, however, a beautiful new building was erected. Thus have the schools of Williamsport progressed, from a single log room to our present modern ,.building:V.,from the three R's to a large curriculum, and from ia few students to hundreds. V .

Just a few cents a day invested in telephone service saves many weary footsteps and provides real protection to the home. In business the telephone is indispensable. ln the home it is just as much a necessity. Compared to other commodities there is absolutely nothing that can be had so cheaply, nothing that brings in so great a return on the investment.

To them, the new Dodge Brothers Six--product of Christler Mot- ors-means far more than any detailed recital of its many advanced engineering features and style attractions. But, confident as these buyers are, few are prepared for the many surprises the new Dodge Brothers Six actually holds in store. Not until you have experienced the performance of this splendid new car do you fully appreciate its comfort, its ease of controle, its smooth, eager power and the roominess of its new Mono-piece Body.
