Last night I had nothing to do so I got out my "Old Memory Book" and was look•
ing at some of the things that I had in it. It seemed to bring me pictures of the past.
The first thing that came to my mind was our first year i~ High School. Our first
semester as Freshies was uneventful, but during the second semester things began to
happen. One eventful day we had our first class meeting and elected "Betty" Kline
as president. Paul Heiman was entrusted with our money as secretary and treasurer.
If memory serves me rightly we had a few parties, and
were a "howling success",
so as to speak.
The next year t:ame when we were allowed to take another step on the journey
throu::;-h H.i:;-h School. Sometime ·'doing that year Helen Debold was chosen. to lead us
on th!s journey, her assista:qt was Roberta Gabbert, also at this time ·we had to celebrate our becoming Sophomores so we had a few parties, and as the saying is after all
parties, "a good time was had by all", including the faculty member;.
I had . wandered pretty far from the subject. of our first year in school 1Vhen it
suddenly dawned upon me that I had forgotten something of the utmost importance
il:ld that was that our first honorary member was one of the present mern,bers ·of the
stern faculty, he is Mr. W. E. Neihaus.
·
·
Well, to go back to our Sophomore season, Mi~s Lois Helfer, was given the honor
of be!ng our faculty adviser, and as most of you know that she was the Domestfo~
Science tea :her, you can be sure that we always had good eat.s at all our parties, which
was something· to be thankful for.
It w:is during this school year that Mr. Copper and Mr. McNeil passed' away.
'Every year some of our members left us, maybe it was because they ·4 id not like
our company, or perhaps they .wanted to start in the business world early ·so as to get
a good start on the rest of us that desired to finish our journey, through the halls and
room:;' of dear old; B. II. S; . I am sure that none of us regret our four years spent here.
(Well, so 111u~h for that lecture.)
·
My mind, Il~s now ~andered bac~ to almost a year ago and then we became Juniors,
and of course, a new I.ender was re.q uired to lead us on that journey and pilgrimage.
Whe~ we became "fl.ighty Juniors",·. we began to think that we were· somebody and took
more interest
the affairs of the sch:>ol, for example, we thought that it was oµr duty
and pleasure to tease the Freshies, which of course, we did to the pleasu!e of all parties
concerned. As I started to· say that we had to have a leader. Weil, to be. truthful; a
boy was given this honor. It was Hiram Bell, better known by the title of "Hi", and
Lilian McClowery was given the position as secretary and treasurer. These two worthy
people held these offices while we were Senior B's and of course that is when the biggest deal of all High School life begins. We had to think of some means of getting
1-::1oney to feed the Senior A's. Before we had time to plan for very much, the day of
the banquet was near. At the eleventh hour we decided to "stage" .a carnival. This.
was 8- huge success, much to our surprise. If it had not been for our honorary mem- .
b21•, Miss Gbdys Heyman, who worked till sh<i was almost gray-headed, I might have
•: dcff<!rent story to t ell you.
The banquet was a success too, , we held it in the cafeteria, which was decorated
with our colors, cardinal and black, and the music room was decked out in blue and
all

gray, the colors of the class of June '25. Dan ce was held there after the banquet. I
h3ard tha~ s::nne of the Sen:ors of that cl.'.lss d:d nat expe::t to have any ba nquet and if
t h Jy did i; et one tha t ihey wodd h:ive a li~;h~ lnnch , namely, for th e first c ou ~ se they
e:cpe ~te ;t a glass cf water a1:d toothp:c!c, a::d for tl:e seccnd and !art, a ean dle and a
mat:::h. \Ve~l; they were sur prised for they w2rc given a splentEcl ban ciuet.
At t his critical time we can say tha~ a ll the memter s in our class worlwd ha1 d,
both doing th:nzs for the carniv::.l and for the ba nquet. Also we can thnnk the :r_;~.m .
bers of the other class, and the co operation cf the teachers in making both c ;' ~ h!!se
events a s uccess.
Dur ing th:s semester one of our tea::hers died, Mr. Rhinehart.
After all of thst exciter.:ent we had a vacation which seemed to be very pleasant,
no books or teachers to bother us.
Let me · remind you that during all of our three years. and a half in school that
we were not seated in t he s~u:l y hall, but w hen t he new addition opened, we were put
ba: k in Room 30. There we entertained ou rsel ves immensely. We hr.d giYen up the
idea of ever being in the study hall and decided our next m ove would be down on the
firs~ flo or or to the ba:ernent , but Mies Heyma n i::forrr:ed us differently, and so as ·
S enior A's we were sent over to the study hall, not to our sorrow, but we ha~ed to.
leave M'.ss Heyman to the cares of the cold, cruel world.
Mr. Reed was then given the h.1n:ir of ·w:!tching o~ e r u s a nd to ~ee that we s~ udled
ha:der than ever. So. for more info rm ation about us ancl our actions in the s~u dy
hall, I mus i; refer you to Mr. Reed. He sh:::ll no doubt t ell you that we •.ve re the mo s ~
~: tudious a:1 d cli::;nified class in Hi:;h School.
( Apples;iucc ! )
A's we had a milll.on and one thin:'.,s to do. To c:iv~ a ch:-.p:>l q:;::e ~h
l::ut tha t was about the fL·s t thl::g we had t o do. T~-ie : :'. · : an oLi
pr;,ver·b, I believe, some:hin::; like this, '"One doesn't have to do anythil' r: ':.:t di~".
Tha:; is all true, but most of us thou .:_ h ~ we wodd die wh] e giving one, bu~ . i::iy are
all ovc1· now, a:1d we are still alive and "goi.ng strong"'.
Ano'.:her important epil:ode iri the Senior life wus that of giving a class . pla~· . Jt
wa::; ;;. hu:;-e success, according to reports of everyone.
While

The off.:cer-s of _our_, ch ss a~ that time were: P rcs:dent, Elean or Long; Vice P1eside:1t, Paul ·lJ.e_·: ky,- a nd Se:::re~ary and Tre:isurer, Treva Hui.-ihert.
T :1e page:> of the Memo~y Rook are ·facled awcy, but the wordF of an old song that ·
we used to .·s ing come b:J.Ck to me as plainly as if it were but yesterday:
"Soon for us w:!l our school days be ended,
The dreams of youth that fade so fast,
But the. heart oft will ponder,:·
On memories of scenes that ar e past.
There are joys that will long be . remembered,
And friendships too that ne'er will die.
So hue's a cheer for our Old High School,
Ou:- cle::ir old High."

We set out in our 1940 model Elizabeth. Treva drove all the way t.o Ohio. You

Mr. and .Mrs. Cimperman invited us to stay at t heir home while we w~ ::-o visitinr:.
and of cours e we gladly accepted t he kind invitation. Their h or.;c n tif;e rnar..s:on, w<·-~
located in the most exclusive resicential section of town on the fashionable Boli•a•·
Roa:! Heights. It certainly was wonderful!
The next day we began to look up our old friends. We foun<l that E li T ercovich,
t he peerless <lancc1., wus keeping a dancing school a t S nyrlertown. He ·was aided by
his beautiful young wife whom we reco.-;nized as our old schoo lm a~e, Angeline .Merda.
Another high school romance!

Genevieve Cook-Cook no more in name but in pro:fession- was now M:::s. Butler
and was famous all over the U. S. for her lectures on ' ·How to get a dinner in three
minu'.:es via the delicat essen store."
Tha~ niah t in company with .Mr. and Mrs . Cimperma n, we attended the Pastinii.e
where we h ea;:d Don Beidle, the famous lecturer talk on "Ho\\' to get what you want,
when you want it." We always did think that hls oratunrl voice wo uld son:e day bring
him r en own.
The next day we began to visit the. surrcunding towns. At Gl:nton we passed
::: very beautiful mansion and upon inquirir:g I found that the owner was a former class ·
mate. But what a surprise ! We found that t he ow:1er of the m ansion v1:.s Henry
Gates (now known as Squire Gates), president of the lar:;:est s oap fa::to:.·y a~ Clin:on.
He was married to--y:iu never could guess - but his wife w:is formerly Juanita M.~th:e.
That certainly was a s urpris e. He b"ave us valuable information concerning several
of our othe r classmates. F;:a nk H Dhn had become P resident of the Ditch Di_ge.-s'
Union, which certainly is a (Teat h:inor in this sc:ent~fic agf\.
Robert Cherryholmes had become a great mathema~ician and had su : cEi:!ded in
squaring the circle and a ls:i in discovering the four~ h dime:;sion.
Ben Fink was attending Massillon Tech, and since he h arl been there so I.mg, there
was talk of ma king him President.
F rom the re we went on to Warwick. There at the beaut iful U11iYerl'i'.y of War·
w:c~t, we found Paul .Maas teaching dangerous acrobatic s~ un ~s .
We always knew that
Paul would take up some dangerous profession by the things he used to do (or no~ do)
in chemist ry ckss. Jennie F urber was also teaching at t he same sc-h:o l. She was

One of the most important events that ever occurred in the history of B. IL S. took
place in 1923, when one hundred and fiv e Freshmen graced the halls of fame. We were
a very brave little troop and were not at all slighted by the upperclassmen as they
soon realized our superiority ( ? ) .
ln our Freshman B yeai· we resided in rooms 11, 12, 13 and 14. The first semei:; ~p 1·
passed without any class meetings. The following semester, as Freshman A's. ' " '
o:!cupied rooms 16, 17 and 18. During that semester we held our !irst meeting. r;" :.i :u
Carrier was elected president; Frederick Kreider, vice president; and Evelyn D : .pp,
~e cretary and treasurer of our class.
Very soon the time came when we were no lunger Freshmen but Sophomore B'~.
We then occupied rooms 18 and 19. Our number became much smaller. During thb
semester we held a party at the Bank rooms. The following September found u ;;
Sophomore A's. How proud and elated we felt when we were m;hered into the coinme:.:cial room and room 25! That semester Paul Brotsman was elected class president; Ilma Krupp, vice president; and Leola Schield, secretary and treasurer. We enjoyed another party-a masquerade party held in the gym.
At last. we were Junior B's-upperclassmen, a very dignified bunch. The most
thrilling event of that term was the selection of our class rings-white gold ones.
We are now Junior A's in rooms 30 and 31. Our officers are: President, Ruth
Chapman; Vice President, Leola Shield; and Secretary Treasurer, Ruth Phaulah. We
are looking forward to next year when we shall be mighty Seniors. · We are going
to make that year one of the .best and glorious years in our lives and in the history
of B.. H. S.

The next January most (?) of us ::cnc~uered the grades and studies, and passed

HISTORY OF THE FRESHMAN CLASS
The Freshman Class of 1925 started in the semest er full of '.:·lee, wi ~h their h:rrh
!chool career before them. The Freshman have had a ver y inteiesting sc;_:cs·c:- :·ht'.~
far, and have tried to go in for everything with en: husiasm. We have s:mw vc_y ;·ccd
football players from the Freshman class and hope to have some l:asketb:-11 players
too. The Freshman girls are interested in volley ball and have been pbying- very
earnestly.
One day in October, our faculty advii:or, Miss Mitchell, and some of the Freshnrnn
decided to .call a meeting of this Freshma n class to or.ganize. This w t s ::-.ccomplishec',
and the results were as follows: President, Fra nces ·La Porte; Secretary, Charle•
Sutter, and Treasurer, Thomas Keenan.
The Freshman held a class party in the music room and had a ve~y in ~er es ~i ng
time.
Most of the Freshman are interested in the Honor Roll. We ha<l repre~ entat i vc~
from each of the grade schools on that list the fir st six weeks, however t he majority
coming from Lincoln.
Many F reshman members a re talented in the line of music and have mide lai·;cr
glee clubs and orchestra possible for B. H. S.
You have also seen many posters and cartoons in the buildin:i;, som'i: below-in;.

Sophomores! ! Such wonderful people were we. Immediately we had a class
meeting and elected Ruth Jacob president and Helen J.awrenC'e secretary a,nd treasurer.
Miss Lee and Mr. Tener were appointed our honorar~· members. Between Latin and
bookkeeping we were kept so busy that we had no time for entertainment, excepting
footba11 and basketball games, and these we attended religiously, yelling· ourselves
hoarse.
As three follows two so Junior succeeds Sophomore. Ahem! we were called upperclassmen. We could hardly wait until we would ·have our class assembly. We
elected efficient officers, namely-Agnes Alspach president and Lola Samples secretary
and treasurer. Miss Lee was chosen our honorary member. The meeting adjourned
with a promise of another in the near future to decicie on our ring·s. One and then
two weeks. passed before Mr. Simon came with samples. A committee was appointed ,
and after hours of discussion they finally chos e our rings, green gold with black onyx
trimming;.;. Everybody must admit that our rings are keen looking· and are the best
duplication of the standard seal so far.
Lai::t but not ·1eas1;, we were designated SENIORS.
Are we dignified'?
Well, I
don't mean perhaps!! The first important tl:j.inrr for us to do was to elec~ the assistant
s~alf for the Magfoian. This done, our thoughts turned to our officers and sweaters.
.John McNamara was elected president and Agn•~ S Als pach s ecretary anri treasurer.

decision of class colors. The final battle was between scarlet and tan and blue and
g·o!d, the l a t~er being the victor. A committee was appointed by the president to interv:cw the mci-dw.nt s. of Barberton as to styles and prices of i::weaters. After a pro l<uged investigation they decided on the Keller-Koat from Werner and Stebick, so
o<'...· orders were placed. Om· marine blue sweaters with thos e artistic old gold emblems

One thin :; is true of you·: class and every cbss which ever graduated from high

'l'h:ire are fi ve , three, two, or.e, talent people. Schocls and colleges can not create brain

Your probler:1 is to analy:e your self on the following abilities: Reasoning power,

THE VALUE OF ATHLETICS IN OUR SCHOOI,S
Athletics have so imbued our nation with their value that for a man to be uns portsmanlike in any situation is indeed a disgrace. To be unable to win or lose sanely and
gallantly.
Both girls and boys are taught through athletics t o accept and classify failure
through chance, through error, 01• through wilfulness.
Athletic participation during the most plastic period of life accords to men and
n t learned through cowomen of the future that self-sufficiency and lac~ of : restrai_
ordination of mind and muscle. An equable disposition, :that safeguard of happiness,
··
is acquired.
Competition being the spice, as well as, sometimes, the bane of business life, it is
well that its judicious application be learned early. And what field is better supplied
with this lesson than a thletics ? The keenest a..~ well as the fairest competition to be
encountered is met in interscholastic contests. A rigorous sel~-control is taught, and
insubordination is not tolerated.
The discipline that governs a squad of athletes will serve well a man who once
worked under it. Competition fairly supplied and intelligently directed is invaluable
to potential business men.
To be physically fit is to be efficient. Athletics during school days place our boys
and girls in womferful trim, providing them with suffiderit endurance 6f health to
carry them through life.
The question has recently been asked, Does humanity at large benefit- from such
f eats of human skill and endurance as swimming across the English Channel? Of
what use to the wol'ld is the best swimmer, the . swiftest runn_e r,_ . ~he best baseball"
pitcher, the be!it football player or the best boxer ? · Hundreds and ..thousands of per~
sons throng arenas, stadiUms, pools· and sea beaches, to see them perform. Of what
value are Red Grange's accomplishments to the progress of civilization? Grange exemplifies skill, speed, daring, strength, courage and initiative. He is the superman of
football and as such, millions pay him tribute. Has he contributed anything to civilization ? It is well that the youth of the land aspire to be like him anc1 train with the
hopes that some day they may be famous as he is now famoui;.
Not many of the several thousand youngsters who as pire to oe Red Granges will

ever be known beyond their immediate section of the country, but when they are training their bodies and guarding their health with the hopes· that they will be starH s_ome
day, they are not committing crimes or getting into mischief. Rather they are building a foundation for health and character that will be of value to them in later life.
1'hey aspire to make touchdowns and the other things are by-products. However in
"-fter life the achievements of the gridiron become of less im portanr.e and health and
¢ha:racter t:raining which they have :received ·i~ trying to make tom:hclown~ are of major
importance.

Two boys had been Seniors in B. H. S. for one week. One was A! Collar, the other
was his brother, and his name was Collar too-Horse Collar.
It was seven o'clock and Al, gently turning in his bed, gracefully kicked Horse out
of bed. Horse awakened and graciously .smacked Al with his fist in return for the
kick. Horse of course alwaysf:rose early, for his ·m other wanted him to be a model for
the other boys in the neighborhood, which was an exclusive one, for only night bores
Jived in it. Al sat up in bed and triumphantly spit into the comer without striking
the wall paper. Then reaching for his trousers whieh hung on the bed post he extracted a Camel, and having lit a match on Horse's neck.. proceeded to have. an enjoyable smoke, aiming the sm~k~ at his toes which, peering from the comforts, were exceedingly cold: .
~: For soine: time they lay in bed, thinking they n~ded the i·est, but finally when
they rose, rememberfog it was Saturday, ate a hearty breakfast and s tarter! µlannini;
the day's routine.
"Let's go to the game," suggested Horse .
. "How much will it cos t?" inquired the more ~ens ible :\I.
"Nothing-," was the reply, ''There's a hole in the frn<'e".
So that a fternoon thru a hole in the fence they witnessed the B. H. S. a nd Akron
West game.
· West won by scoring mgre points and tipping· the referee, so t hat evening they
assembled in Snyder's and talked over the game.
Horse had a date and left early.
"Going to see my girl,'.' he said.
"My turn tomo~ow night," Faid .'\ I.
"We'll compromi~e and l'll go both ni~hts," spok<> up Ho1"Re.
So Horse went ·o n his .way, and Al went home after a few game;; of pool. Thel'c
be:ng nothing to do but study· he went to bed.
When Horse came in. at::threP. o'clock, slamming the door so as not to awaken Al,
went to bed so they were ·then hoth in her!.
When Monday c.a me they went to :<chool. _Al m.~de. good t:?:r acle"' by sitting in the

IF A GLOVE COULD TELL ITS STORY
It was the bright, busy, whirligig Christmas shopping season a,:ain. Stores were
heavy with holly, candles and stuffy, unnatural looking Santa Clauses. Merchandise of
every description was on display-some of it attractive, most of it otherwise-to tempt
and fbally induce the uncertain purchaser studying hi.\' long list of names followed by
question ma.rks. People pushin::; head long some place, or no place; whining children
demanding this, tha~verything; sales women alternating their disposition between
orgies and lumps of sugar, all of this together with a stifling atmosphere went to make
up any respectable place of business twenty three days before Christmas.
In a conspicuous glass counter in the front of one of these exclusive abodes of the
shopper, I was enthrowned, a jaunty pair of tan buckskin sport gloves. You say enthroned ? Why not when you have soft, goldened colored satin beneath you; a great
Jar of saffron chrysanthemum:;; at your side and a sumptous jewel box at your feet?
Flappers gazed at me with reverence; st out matrons would sigh and lament the fact
that they could no longer ple:!sin.:;ly cover their portly figures with sport clothes. My
glory was suprer.-.e! What if greasy urchins did try to smear my glass palace ? Was
no ~ there always a pompous be flowered floor walker to quietly push the little villains
out into the cold, sloppy streets?

It was not so amusing,· however, \Vhe·n fifteen days before Christmas I was taken
from my position by one of these over dres£ed, cxprc: s .onless me11. It ~ ecmed 1 h<'., .;
sold enoug-h of my buckskin brot hers and sist.ers hack in the drawern, and besides, the
clerk agreed that the long, white, sixteen button, French kid were mur:h more in keeping with the gala holiday spirit.

Up there on a green, f elt counter I lay, and then to add to my disgrace, I was hung
· on a minerature fla g pole, for e\ery man, woman and child to finger, pinch and peer
deep into my inside to see the tiny numbers placed on my back. It was not long before
this kind of treatment began to change t he appearance of my exterior. I sagged at
the fin:;;ers and stretched at the wrist. My lovely sheen was all but gone and tbe1 e
was hardly a be fur coated miss who would stop to look at me. At last, I knew it
would come to that, they opened me, shook their heads, and changed those little uu1:• ·
b'.:)rs on my back fo1· a red tag. I was on the bargain counter and it was or.ly t en days

lt was something like the old life, however, to be taken into a quiet home and carefully laid on a se~luded table with several other self satisfied gift:;;. And later, I was
wrapped ih creaseless tissue paper and tied with the most vivid of red ribbon. Really,
I was getting on very well! And this "dear little niece" whom I had heen i:;ent to
cheer- surely she was worth speculating on.
When she was unwrapping me I stretched and puffed myself into a t rue semblance
of my former beauty, for the niece was all that any pair of gloves might CC1vet. After
one glance at me, however she let me fall to ~the floor in a heap--my fingers bent over
my back t o my wrist. Upstairs, I could hear ·her sobbing to her mother that stingy,
old, Aunt Clara had bought her some beastly, brown sport gloves instead of those

t'\L'MBEI\
"Dear little niece" could hardly expect not to have a thrifty mother with an aunt
like Aunt Clara, s o why should she display so much digust at having me presented
to Master Tommy, her younger brother? He was an U£"1Y lubbering youngster and
had he succeeded in jamming his pudgy fists into me, I know my "guaranteed seams"
would have surrendered. Just at this moment, however, Mother again interrupted
seeing Tommy's difficulty and quickly decided to p<iss me on to "dear r.h e nieces"
young·est sister. What were my feelings <luring all of this? I didn't have any-I left
them back there in my gfass p:ilace with the golden satin and saffron chrysanthemums.
And with Babe's skinny little hands within me it was double easy to forget that I was
alive. The old sages just slumped the more; my back strai.1.rht up to this time became
creas ed and crooked, and my s tretched wrists refused to shrink. In this pitable condition I might at least have live<l out a respectable old age if it had not been for
Maste? Tommy. He had covet ed me from afar for some time, and now that a sleigh
ride was at hand bringing with it the prospect of sitting besi de Henrietta Bean, the
temptation was too great. With one thrust a sticky 11udgy hand came into me. My
creased ba:::k straightened with a strain, and t he sa::;ging fingers puffect out like stuffed
sausages. Now his whole hand was in me and h e was wiggling hi s thumb. That was
too much; the guaranteed seams stretched and then a sickening pain told me that · a
great tear had been made across the front of me.
Tommy pulled me off with difficulty and after some pouting from Babe and quite
l\ bit cf remonstrating from mother, I was thrown dow11 cellar with the other rags.
You see no one really cared very much because they had not wanted ME anyway.
l remained in 'that dank, dark cellar until Spring. Why did they dii:lodge me then'!
There was going to be a Rummage Sale for some Ladies Aiders-whatever they areand so I was t aken into a cold, empty store -room. One of the. "Aiders" pinned a slip
of paper on me which read, "twenty five cents". On my left were old shoes, white
shoes, tan shoes, black shoes all with tur ned up toes, broken down heels and in a state
of moral decay. On the other side of me were old caps, p atched aprons, broken dishes,
and spotted mirrors-all out casts. People were continually passing by the window,
and many of the curious ones would stop and peer in at me .f or a moment, then pass
on uninterested. Two bright, little faces were quite distinct from these indifferent
pedestrians, in that they viewed me with evident admiration. At last, a s if waiting
for their courage to r each the zenith point, they edged into the store, and quietly a s k
if they might examine me. I was freely handed over for inspection. One Uttle face
continued to "beam", and on learning that I could be obtained for the nominal sum of
twenty five cents, immediately closed the transa~~ion. Almo~t lovingly she patted me
as we left the cold, empty store. I was tucked into her outside podcet, but even f.rom
that position I could hear her explainin~· to her· s~·mpathetic friend .
"I have wanted some real, honest to goodne s~; g loves for ·s o long . In the s tore;;
i t has always been useless to . even ·price them; l:ec a1~ :1c the;' are f::r· too cx::ic:ifli\ c f.. r
me to consider."
I Destled deeper into the sha.llow pocket. This was the kind of convenmtion one
likes to drink in slowly, and with physical comfort. We were approachin.g the river
wh'ch divides the resi:.'.ential section of the town. Perhaps my two friends will soon
fLd it necessary to leave one another so I had bette r be quiet and listen a gain before
all the nice things about me have been sn id.
'It aL:1 os~ seems as if some good fairy has taken pity on me, and placed these
gloves in a Rummage Sale so I cou~d buy them .. But if it was a good fairy, :-VhY didn't
sh~ pla::e a pair of those long, white, French kid ones, and make my happrnesi:; comp le~c".
T:iey were crossing. the foot br idge; the speaker made a sharp, pitiful little cry.
He : gb\ es haJ somehow slipped out of the coat pocket and were slowly sinking in th~·
muddy water of the rapid moving river.

Many girls have been coming to
The first meeting was held October 1, and it was a welcome to the Fresh ies.
Bluebeard's Wife, a little play was presen ted and was very i nteres~ing. We sang a
great many songs before the play was given and we began to look forward to the time
when the Gi rl Reserve Song Books would arrive. There were over a hundred girls
there and so this first meeting ends with eats and it was cons idered very sucl'.'.essful.
\ __/'The Budget Play which was given October 15, was very cleverly produced. This
meeting was held at the Y. M. C. A. The girls a ll liked t he new meetin -- l:l ~ce und it
was decided that we hold some of our meetings there ii;t the future. This Recognition
Service was also held at this meeting and for the first time man y of the girls saw a

The Health meeting was he ld at the Y. M. C. A. too. Miss Heyr:an and Ma rgaret
Yoder had a very interesting progr.am prepared for us. Miss J ones and Miss Mitchell
gave us some very clever talk and how to dress and take ca re of ourselves in a healthful
manner. Many different types of dress were put on display. After the program we
played baseball and thus the m eeting- en(led.
T hanksgiving was coming near and so we felt that we m ust have a program ii•
keeping with the season. A little play, " T he Tragedy of the Tha nksgiving· Dinner''.
The characters took their parts very well and as the play was humorous everyone enjoyed it.
Scrap Books, our service meeting came next anrl we dressed several dolls .:!nd i:i:\:'e
scrap books. The dolls were given to the "Sunshine School" a t om· next meeting \·1h.: ~ h
was a Christmas party given t o the " Sunshine School". T he girls had a good time anJ
~o did the little crippled children.

How like the roadw!lys of country and city is the r oadway of life! Sometimes the
road is long, sometimes the road is short; sometimes sweet and s ometimes bitter; but
after all it is just what we make of it.
"But it's ·the dull road that leads to the gay road," and "the work road that leadi<
to the play road". It's a road where we toil, we rest. we try, we learn, we strive, we
enjoy-and even then the road of· life is the most beautiful road of all.
'fhere are curves and dips, valleys and bumps. It wind s around mountains, runs
beside the silvery stream, and out into the prairie, but it's a p:oor:I road.
Everyone travels the road, he may stir up the dust, he may make ruts, or he may
fix the road; whatever he does, it is accomplished by the things he does and says.
If you are happy ·a nd gay the roadway will be within the fra grant va lleys and cool
woods, and along silvery babbling streams; but if there is rnrrow in the life, the road
leads over the mountains· and dark, dreary places.
All the things that happen day by day, show what kind of metal "'e are m ade of.
How we stand the tests life gives tQ us each day, it is these things that r.mrk the road,
good or bad.
·
·
If there were no sorrows, no cares, no sighs, no tears, no burdens, no soul sickness;
if all our hopes were realized, if every joy cculd l::e found on earth, and we never lost
a loved one, and if we· never had a friend \vho was fa lse-the road would be the same
from its beginning to its end and we'd long· for a chance to prove our worth, to change
the monotony of that ~rowded road, and ease s ome weary so_journer by the way side.
But when the roses of your success are blooming, you will have forgotten the thorn
pricks that you received as y::m tended you'r roses day by day, and year by year. Their
sweet perfume will oblitera'.:e ever y sorrow and trial. The skies are blue , and you
have f orgotten the days wh~ n the clouds were r-:ray. The ache, the pain, and bi tter
disappointment--all is gone, and only a beautiful undiscovered road lies beyond.
.
>.
The man who makes the road most beautiful, the most pleasant, is the man who
is kind, courageous and brave. The man who h elps another t o smooth the path he
treads. Life needs us all; some say the kindly word to ease the pain, and put away the
care, some are friendly, others give the gifts that .are most needed.
The roadway of life's childhood is the road, not Jon<; since built. The way is s trong,
but others, his parents, guide his footsteps ·o'er its surface. and he trus~s them and joyfully trips over the way till he comes to his school days. The school·days are the parts
of the road where the flowers grow by the way and where· ·are tinkling brooks and
cool sylvan shades. The lasting friends are the trees, and the acqua,intances are the
many flowers. The soft green grasses and ftowine- water are the joys we know in our
,;chool-days . .
In the autumn when the trees lose their foliage, the old faithful friends drift away,
but the soul and the spirit still remain. The flowers that die are the acquaintancei;
that soon forget us-there is no common tie. The grass grows brown and s ear; thus
do we forget our pleasures when new ones come, and even thus do the weeds, o?r sorsows, die. Then comes the days of toil and effort, struggling for fame. At_ every
step some new thing rises to view and one sees one of nature's panorama. The way
is long and oft times the traveler is soul sick. There failure, defeat, disappointment
and chagrin await. Here is the real test; here it is that man determines whether he
will take the left fork of the road, which leads down the road which is the i::ame all
the way, always gloomy and with no curves and no sinnfog brooks. But if he can
conquer all these trials he takes the road that goes to the riF"ht that winds around
the joys and sorrows, but the sorrows are soon forgotten with the passing year~ and
the joys tha~ come therein.
