P r o f e s s o r Swank therefore said, " L e t there be a classmeeting," and there was a classmeeting. And it came to pass that Melvin Ralston emerged from the multitude as president, A r t h u r Hellenberg as vice president, Marguerite Shattuck as scribe, J. T. Symons 88 class advisor, and behold t h e class o f '22 looked upon their work and saw that it was good. I t was t h e custom i n those days f o r the Seniors t o give unto the Freshman a reception. A n d it was done. Then there descended upon the school a great plague called the "flu." And the Rabbles bade us flee from our studies until the plague had ceased. And behold! T h e r e came forth from o u r midst three men of might. " n x i t i e " Mohrhardt, Hubert Spade, and Clarence Hackett, who overcame the enemy in tierce athletic contests. Thusly ended this year with much glory for us. CHAPTER I I The next year we again assembled i n the antique temple of learning. The rites of selection were again performed. A r t h u r Hellenberg became president; M a x Earley, vice president; V e y Holmes, scribe; and M i s s Bannister, class advisor. And i t came to pass soon after we gathered together on Hallowe'en a huge company to eat and make merry. A n d a l l the company did dance to the sound of music and laughter. There came unto t h e land o f C. H . S . a money changer to make a covenant with us concerning a play, Katcha Koo b y name. V e r i l y, I say unto you, a goodly part of the talent f o r t h e play came out from our class. And our men of might were greatly increased i n number and added to their glory on every occasion. A n d at the end of the year w e journeyed into a strange country. H e r e we ate in abundance t h e f r u i t s o f t h e field and engaged in a combat, "The Interclass Meet." �CHAPTER I I I Then after three months we went up again unto the land of C. H. S. and again we chose new leaders, Margaret, daughter of William of the House of Milnes, with Hubert Spade and Kenneth Olmsted as assistants W e chose Mrs. Randolph to advise us in the hour of need. Not many days after, this wise prophetess bade us partake of a feast at her dwelling by the seaside. Once again we gathered together a t the Parish House and rejoiced among much merry-making and refreshments. The Lord looked upon us with favor a n d once more did we smite our enemies and would-be-champions for another year. And Lo! it did happen t h a t o u r upper-classmen were t o graduate after much toil. I t appeareth that many shekels were needed to fill our coffers in preparation for a banquet and dance thereof. A n d with our mind upon this, the public was bidden to attend our benefit. A n d Lo! the people from all the surrounding t e r r i t o r y d i d come and bring unto our treasury the shining shekels. Now on the third day of the sixth month of the year one and twenty, our tribe did give a big feast to the tribe of '21 saying, ' C o m e ye, come ye and make merry with us." F o r w e knew t h a t the upperclassmen were about to depart from our midst And on the following Lord's day w e d i d all assemble in a body and heard along with our upper classmen of the path that lay before them. And i t came to pass that on the night that our friends were about t o depart from the land of C. H. S., we did again assemble in a body, but this time at Tibbit's Theatre. A n d here w e d i d witness them securing their coveted sheepskin, and listened to a great prophet from the far country of Ann Arbor. And our men of might had returned to us from s m i t i n g t h e enemy with still greater honor. Thus the third year of our sojourn i n t h e land of knowledge came to it's end with a feast by the seaside southeast of our land of dwelling. �CHAPTER I V Now this, the fourth year in the history of this tribe of two and twenty has ended. A n e w leader, M a x Benjamin and h i s assistants, Donald Draper and Elizabeth Woodward, were chosen f r o m t h e multitude. M r s . Randolph was again chosen from among t h e Rabbies, to guide our rising steps. A n d we sent up unto that ruling assemblage, the council, Gertrude Fredrichs and Donald Draper. A n d honor was done unto Draper and he was made president. And then after a short time we bade all the tribes in the land of C. H. S. to assemble at the temple of learning. A n d they did attend a Reception which our tribe gave unto the Freshman tribe. A n d w e gave much entert iinment to make the children merry. And the tribes of our land could n o t enter i n t o combat w i t h other lands in the winter for the place o f combat had become evil in the Lord's sight and been destroyed by fire. H o w -be-it, o u r coffers became fat with gold and silver shekels from the benefits and the great Senior Play wnich our tribe presented unto the world. F o r much money was needed to make a fitting paper which would d o honor unto o u r tribe, t h a t we might the better remember our tribesmen when we traveled in far off lands. And the wise ones of our tribe were made t o s i t before t h e artist, each by himself and in groups and there came to be a great exchanging of likenesses. And then every tribesman was very busy f o r we were preparing to leave the temple of learning. A n d at last, on t h e eighth day o f t h e sixth month of the year two and twenty our t r i b e gathered together a t Tibbit's Theatre and received our sheepskins. A n d our tribe forever left the land of C. H. S. And now we wish much success and pleasure to all the f u t u r e tribes who dwell in the land of C. H. S. �CLASS W I L L We, the Senior Class of '22 of Coldwater High School, City of Coldwater, County of Branch, State of Michigan, being of sound mind and body, do ordain and establish this to be our last will and testament in the manner following, hereby declaring all others null and void.

With the hearty co-operation o f every individual w e trust the work done has been satisfactorily accomplished. We have earned the money to make the publication o f such a book possible, in the main part, by our Senior Play, entitled " O h ! Oh! Cindy." This was given on March 17, 1922, and financially successful to the extent o f two hundred and sixty-five dollars. We also have had numerous movies w h i c h were m o s t successful. "Benefits" seems to be our money-makers, f o r, i t seems, we could even sell a ticket to a wooden Indian. The Editor, at this time, wishes to state her appreciation of the work done by the other members o f the Staff.

Of the days of gloom and the days of cheer While we've tried to do our best. There's a memory dear of the friends who helped On the long hard way we came. So we'll give to them our greatest thanks And we'll ever do the same. There were the good times too, that we have had The thoughts of leaving them make us sad. There were numerous gatherings of the whole band, And the parties and picnics of all our class There will be more good times in the days to come Parties and picnics and all kinds of fun. But we'll not forget as we go on with the rest The good old times in C. H. S. As we take our part in the game of life And play it with the rest The lessons we've learned in C. H. S. Will help us in the strife. There may be some who will fail, and some who will win But whate'er the cost, whaler the returns g r e a t We will all be game. ( f a m e . �VA L E D I C T O R Y Yeiive Angevine " T o Strive, t o Seek, t o F i n d , and N o t t o Y i e l d " iVe are i n sympathy w i t h Ulysses because we too have reached one of the turning points o f our lives, the end of our high school education. F o r twelve years we have been tutored, directed, a n d guided. We have been as children led along a p a t h w a y ; n o w w e come t o a cross-roads. T h e grasp of the friendly hand i s now loosed. W e are left t o choose which p a t h -we a r e t o follow; the one t h a t i s rugged and leads o v e r t h e steep mountains, or the one that is easy and winds through t h e pleasant valleys o f life. C o m m e n c e m e n t i s a n a r c h through which we can see the world and these two paths; one rugged, steep and lonely, the other smooth,nd are l e f t w i t h o u t these friendly, As we pass through this arch a easy, b u t leading where? guiding hands, how great the temptation to say," I am weary and would rest awhile," forgetting that every h o u r o f endeavor, e v e r y effort we make would only make the rough road easier to lead us to newer a n d better things. T h e n let us not t a r r y in the pleasant valleys of life, but start while our ambitions are still strong, and while we have the faith to conquer all things. There we know not what adven 'ores await us, though we may often fail, there is always some work w o r t h y o f our efforts. O u r s t r u g g l e is but begun; w i t h free hearts, free minds, w i t h Ulysses we m a y y e t follow knowledge like a sinking star, and find t h a t youth holds not all. " T h e best is yet to b e . " " T h a t which we are, we are: crie equal temper o f heroic h e a r t s , made weak by time and fate, but st 'ong in w i l l t o strive, t o seek, t o find, and not to y i e l d . " I t may be t h a t i n years t o come, some o f us may reach those happy isles, may know fame, fortune, or f a r lands. We have learned from the past t h a t the heart o f man k i n d d o e s not change from generation to generation. A m b i t i o n s , d e s i r e s , a n d yearning f o r nobler things remain t h e same through the ages. H i s t o r y teaches us t h a t the daring souls of t h e world, those we call heroes, are the ones who, obtaining knowledge, overcoming obstacles, a c h i e v i n g success; they are not content to settle down i n peace and enjoy the rewards of their efforts, but restless, unsatisfied, p r e s s on, ever seeking new worlds to conquer. I tun going to tell you the story of one of these high-bearted heroes of old, Ulysses. �Many, many years ago, Helen, t h e m o s t beautiful w o m a n i n t h e world and wife of Menalus. KinA o f Greece, was c a r r i e d o f f by Paris, son of the K i n g of Troy. F r o m this incident there arose a war, known as the Tr o j a n war. T h e K i n g of Greece called all the great Chieftains of his country together for the purpose o f rescuing Helen. U l y s s e s , who had married Penelope, a cousin of Helen, was loth to go to war as he was happy in his home, his island kingdom, Ithaca, b u t due t o the call o f the king i t was necessary for h i m to obey. Greece being successful in the Tr o j a n W a r , Ulysses was allowed to return home. A f t e r ten years of struggle, hardship, and adventure, he finally reached home safely. During Ulysses' absence, Penelope had been besieged b y m a n y suitors. U l y s s e s , however, soon r i g h t e d matters and settled down to enjoy the ease and comfort afforded h i m b y peace and prosperity, b u t he soon grew dissatisfied w i t h t h e easy l i f e he was l i v i n g and could not content himself there. One o f o u r greatest E n g l i s h poets, A l f r e d L o r d Tennyson, has given us t h e p o i n t o f view o f the o l d hero, h i s da:igers p a s t a n d nothing l e f t b u t t o stay a t home a n d b e h a p p y —growing t i r e d o f inaction and resols ing t o set f o r t h again in quest o f new adventures: ' I t l i t t l e profits t h a t an idle K i n g , By this still hearth, among t h e s e barren crags, Match'd w i t h a n aged wife, I mete and dole Unequal laws unto a savage race, That hoard, and sleep, and feed, and know not me. I cannot rest f r o m travel: T w i l l d r i n k Life t o the lees: A l l times I have enjoy'd Greatly, have suffer'd g r e a t l y b o t h w i t h those That loved m e , a n d alone; o n shore, and when Thro' scudding drifts the rainy Hyades Vext the dim sea: I am become a name; For always roaming w i t h a h u n g r y heart Much have I seen and known; cities of men And manners, climates, councils, governments. Myself not least, but honor'd o f them all; And drunk delight of battle w i t h m y peers, Par on the ringing plains of w i n d y Tr o y. I am a part of all t h a t I have met; Yet all experience is an arch wherethro' Gleams t h a t untravell 'd world, whose margin fades Forever and forever when I move. �How (lull i t is to pause, to make an end, To rust unburnish'd, not to shine in use! As t h o ' to breathe were life. L i f e piled on life Were all too little, and of one t o me Little remains; but every hour is saved From that eternal silence, something more. A bringer of new things; and v i l e i t were For some three suns to store and hoard myself, And this gray spirit yearningin desire To follow knowledge like a sinking star, Beyond the utmost bound o f human thought. There lies the port: t h e vessel puffs her sail: There gloom the dark broad seas. M y mariners, Souls that have toil 'd, and wrought, and thought with me— That ever w i t h a f r o l i c welcome took The thunder an./ the sunshine, and opposed Free hearts, f r e e foreheads—you and I are old; Old age !lath yet his honor and his t o i l ; Death closes a l l : b u t something ere the end, Some w o r k o f noble note m a y yet be done, Not unbecoming m e n t h a t strove with Gods. The l i g h t s begin t o twinkle f r o m the rocks: The long day wanes: t h e slow moon climbs: t h e deep Moans round w i t h many voices. C o m e , m y friends, "Pis n o t t o o late t o seek a newer world. Push off, and sitting well in o r d e r smite The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths Of all the western stars, until I die. I t may be that the gulfs will wash us down: It may be we shall touch the h a p p y Isles, And see the great Achilles, whom w e knew. Tho' much i s taken, much abides: a n d t h o ' We are not now t h a t strength which in old days Moved earth and heaven, t h a t which we are, we are: One equal temper o f heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, b u t strong i n w i l l . " It may be that some o f us, tempest tossed, may not reach the port for which we strive; but all, one equal temper o f heroic hearts, m a y still w i t h n o b l e m a r i n e r s o f Ulysses " O v e r the horizen follow the gleam" beyond the sunset and the p a t h o f the western stars into the broad ocean of noble manhood and womanhood. ���SENIOR P L A Y Cast of Characters Terrence O ' l l o o l i g a n , " G o d m o t h e r " _ __ L a j o i e Faust Jim, a stage hand The B i g F o u r Rae Roslyn C a r r i e Oswalt Persia Nielson G e r t r u d e Friedrich Gracie M a r t i n A l i c e Ross Mildred St. C l a i r M a r g a r e t Doerr Blanche Blondina M a r g u e r i t e Shattuck The Three Bears Little Bear V e y Holmes Middle B e a r M a x Benjamin Big Bear D o n a l d Draper LeCreir F a n n i e Moog Cinderella VanAlstyne, " C i n d y " M i l d r e d Evens Stephen C r a i g A r t h u r Hellenberg Ferdinand Gotrox, " S a n t a Claus,"M e l v i n Ralst. n L i l y W h i t e , " A Cannibal Q u e e n " M a r g a r e t Milnes Friday, " A Penniless L o v e r " M a x Earley Saturday, " A We a l t h y L o v e r " A rthur Waite Oh, Oh, C i n d y ! presented M a r c h 17 under t h e auspices o f t h e Senior Class was one o f the most s t r i k i n g and artistic o f the pjays presented by high school talent.

Two annual banquets are held, the banquet for old Hi.Y members held during the holidays, and the Lads' and Dads' banquet held in the spring. �ROOSEVELT D E B AT I N G S O C I E T Y ROLL C A L L Harriet Abbott R o l a n d Lucas Estella Amaden D o r o t h y Lehmann Tone Brooke E l s i e Moog Marion Balc,om F a n n i e Moog Ithmer Coffman D o r o t h y Oswalt Lola Bell Goodwin R o b e r t Ryan Marshall Hungerford V i v i a n Weller Fern Hill G l e m a Weaver Arthur Lyon A r t h u r Waite Helen Coffman �R O O S E V E LT D E B A T I N G S O C I E T Y I SEMESTER OFFICERS Miss Helen Ralph F Ithmer Coffman P Elsie MoogV Robert RyanS e Arthur LyonT r a r i c e c e u s c l t i y d e n e r a e s t u a r r e Advisor t President y r II SEMESTER OFFICERS Miss Helen RalphF a c u l t Fannie Moog Arthur WaiteV Arthur LyonS Roland Lucas y Advisor P r e s i d e n t i e T c c r r e e e a t s President a u r r y e r The Roosevelt Debating Club is s t i l l very much on the map, though its membership was decreased greatly through the graduation of the class of 1921.

D u e to financial difficulties she was unable t o complete h e r schedule o f five debates, and three members o f the team Roland Lucas, Duane Sanford and Marshall Hungerford were not afforded a chance to participate in active debating. Because of the inexperience of the members of the teams three debates were lost but the experience of this year has afforded a good foundation for the debating team of "23." �JUNIOR-SENIOR B A N Q U E T The Junior-Senior Banquet took place at the Elks Temple on the second of June.

T h e positions left open were filled by those who remained f r o m last year's team and from the new material which reported t o Coach M a r t i n f o r t h e 1921 season. C o a c h Martin carried out the filling and t r a i n i n g o f men f o r these positions not only benefit to the team but also w i t h c r e d i t t o himself, a n d i n a short time had a team trained and f i t f o r a hard season, which, under the guidance of Captain Earley proved equal to the task. The first game o f the schedule was w i t h Union C i t y, a t Coldwater. U n i o n City had an unusually strong team w h o p u t u p a h a r d fight. T h e y started i n f r o m the v e r y first and h i t our line f o r good gains. T h e local ioquad b e i n g inexperienced, lacked organized team work. T h e Union City team finding the weak spots, pushed one score over i n the first h a l f . I n t h e second half, t h e v i s i t i n g t e a m came back strong. T h i s , along w i t h the f a c t that the local team seemed unable to carry the ball on the offensive f o r consistent gains, made o u r chance o f winning look slim, u n t i l near the finish of the game when by means o f a long pass, the local team brought the ball well d o w n t h e field, which in the end, made possible a touchdown for C.

A d r i a n was mindful of the defeat C. H. S. gave her the previous year, and planned to gquare up for i t against this year's team. T h e locals were confident of winning, so the game from the very start was a hard and fast one. T h e first few minutes of play showed the two teams to be evenly matched. A s neither team was able to make their downs, they were both forced to punt during t h e e n t i r e game. T h e l o c a l s brought the ball to within three feet o f A d r i a n ' s goal b y intercepting one of Adrian's passes, but lost i t on a fumble. T h e rest of the game was a hard fight on the part of both teams to secure a touchdown before time was called. A d r i a n attempted-nany times to make good a place kick but Coldwater's defense was good and the plays were easily broken TIP. Score: C. H . S. 0—Adrian 0 The next game was with Albion a t Coldwater. A f t e r t h e defeat Albion gave C. H. S. the Year before, the local team thought i t necessary to give the visiting team a setback.

T h r e e Rivers having taken up football this year after they had discontinued it f o r several years, h a d a team :composed o f a l l inexperienced players. T h e game, which was pl aved from start to finish i n a drizzling rain, was slow and lifeless.

A l t h o the Sturgis team played a good game, they were too light to hold back the Coldwater eleven, the locals pushed four touchdowns thru the Sturgis line in t h e f i r s t t h r e e q u a r t e r s o f t h e game. T h e n having the game practically cinched, second t e a m m e n were sent in so that they might gain experience f o r the c o m i n g year.

T h e members o f this class, m x i n departing from their A l m a Mater, take this opportunity t o make known t o the public the facts o f their history. S u c h is the purpose o f the ensuing article. Early in September, nineteen seventeen, we, the members o f the class o f nineteen twenty-one, a l o n g w i t h m o r e t h a n h a l f a hundred others w h o have since left o u r ranks, made the acquaintance o f Coldwater H i g h School. W e were i n troduced t o this organization w i t h an impressive and original ceremony. I t coniiisted o f songs by the entire class, gorgeously costumed in green, o u r native color. followed b y songs b y individuals, solo dancing b y B i l l M i l n e s a n d M a x Wa k e man, acrobatic stunts b y N i l e s Baldrige and Nathan Shafer, and was concluded by a lesson i n love m a k i n g o n a m o o n l i g h t n i g h t ( m i n u s t h e m o o n l i g h t ) especially prepared b y M o r t ( /Ills a n d E l s i e P a l m e r. Ve soon learned that g e t t i n g an education was n o t as easy as finding threeleaf clovers: that the book o f knowledge contained facts not included in o u r scope. But o u r Freshman year was not without its pleasures, f o r the class o f '17 gave its one o f the best receptions ever held f o r a Freshman class. T h i s was o u r first introduction t o the social side o f H i g h School l i f e . In choosing a president w e take great pride i n o u r excellent display o f gotx1 judgment i n electing A l b e r t Hodgman. Bill M i l n e , was our only representative i n football t o get his letter. W e have always been proud o f B i l l . and w i l l continue t o be so t o o u r d y i n g day. The peaceful cottrse o f o u r progress w a s broken somewhat b y t h e W a r i n Europe, w h i c h called several o f o u r teachers t o the colors. But a t last, i n spite o f various obstacle: encountered o n t h e w a y, a f t e r nine months o f hard w o r k and study we succeeded i n shaking o ff that dreadful name. Ft eshman. and t o o k the more dignified appellation, Sophomore. A f t e r a brief period o f recuperation. (luring which we became widely scattered. we t o o k u p once more o u r task, t h i s t i m e nearer mental perfection. As Sophomores w e a g a i n demonstrated o u r sound j u d g m e n t a n d c o m m o n sense in choosing K a t h r y n Shattuck f o r president. D u r i n g this year, w e had o u r first class party, which was a r e d letter epoch i n our history, as i t has led t h e w a y t o many enjoyable social events. This was the year o f " r e d pepper i n the ventilators- - t h e previous year having been famous f o r bookstacks—and several students were expelled f r o m school as a result o f malicious behavior. W e are proud t o say t h a t none o f o u r classmates were involved i n this breach o f discipline. and also that w e have a perfect iecord i n that none o f our class have ever been asked t o make themselves scarce. D u r i n g this year our number was decreased by the death o f Margaret Moore. She l e f t many friends i n o u r class. and w e w i l l always cherish her memory. �t Well, to cut a long story short, we so increased the size and capacity of that organ of the human body, which distinguishes its front the class of '20 known as the brain, that we soon passed to the next stage of development. the Junior Class. Again we enjoyed a brief period of rest before we took up the strenuous mental effort of maintaining the dignity of Juniors. H e r e we began to comprehend the facts which had been pounded into our skulls by the heartless faculty for so long before, and it was astonishing how fast we developed our intellectual capacity. In choosing a president, we even outdid our former good judgment hy selecting Helen Farwell to be mistress of ceremonies. She was personally responsible for the success of our numerous activities while Juniors. Along with our greater and broader knowledge of life, we took even greater honors in the athletic field. W e also had a large majority on the trio of clamant, howling, insurgents known as the debating team. We made our first attempt at getting for ourselves the root of all evil, the American dollar (Canadian money discounted). I n this respect we were so successful that we immediately turned around and converted our hard-earned cash to the benevolent task of feeding and entertaining the hungry and pleasure seeking class of 1920. W e also had several social events, including a sleighing party, at which we all enjoyed the cold weather and the excitement of thawing out. But even such activities could not stem the tide of golden sand flowing from the upper compartment of Father Time's sand glass to the lower chamber, and so we soon found ourselves no longer Juniors, but in the most coveted and noble station known to the mind of man, Seniors in Coldwater High School. Ye Gawds! Could we stand the test? Could we uphold the traditions and beloved customs of old C. H. S.? Have we done it? I t is for you to decide. You have seen us, under the leadership of John Gage. uphold our part in school activities. Yo u have seen its contribute to the football team one of the best Captains C. H. S. ever had, as well as the majority of players on one of the most successful teams we have ever had. Yo u have seen us do our part in all branches of athletics. Yo u have seen its successful in our Senior Fair, raising more money than any similar High School activity has ever made. Y o u have helped us in staging the most successful Senior play ever witnessed in Coldwater. Yo u have. some of you, had the pleasure of removing the figure ones front the banners which we won in the ticket contests, with a percentage in the basket-ball ticket contest of over 200%. A n d you have seen its publish (with your generous aid, for which we thank you kindly) the best, we proudly say, and the largest "Mirror" C. H. S. has ever had the privilege of reading. A n d lastly, you have seen its graduate one of the largest classes ever to graduate front C. H . S. Now Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen, we leave to you the task of living up to the traditions of our most beloved High School. A n d after we are gone from your sight, we beg you to remember that we are still thinking of you and Coldwater High School. �CLASS PROPHECY A T last, I believe that I am really going to have an afternoon to myself, and will have a chance to take a little much needed rest. T h e r e goes that door bell. I might have known that there could be no such thing as rest in this life.'• "Well, well I f it isn't Pauline Kaiser. Yo u old dear. Where have you been keeping yourself? How nicely you look. Where did you get that wonderful Marcel?" "Why, didn't you know that I own one of the most exclusive beauty parlors in Chicago? I thought every one had heard o f it. Ye s , my assistant, Leona McGrew, is managing the business while I take a needed vacation. I began last week by going down to the old class reunion. and I certainly heard the news." "Oh, I've been longing to see some one who went to the reunion. I wanted to go but Jimmy had the measles, and so I was unable to attend. Do tell rue about it.'' "Well, about the most sensational thing is the divorce suit of Helen Farwell Ralston. B o b Rattray and Bert Hodgman are the lawyers in the case. B o b is working for Helen, and they say he is not entirely uninterested. I never thought it of Bob, slid you? B u t then, you never can tell. However. this is the third time that Helen has applied for a divorce, but she always takes him back." "How shocking! D i d you hear anything about Kathryn ?" "Yes, she and Nape are married, and run a swell hotel at a summer resort in the Alleghenies. Nathan Shafer is firing on the railroad that goes near their home, and ' K ' waves to him from the garden every day. Elsie was at the reunion and told me about them. I t seems that she stayed at the hotel a couple of ,veeks while she was on her honeymoon with Mr. Rockerbilt. Yo u know she always said she'd marry for money and manners. H e r husband is seventy-five years old, has a couple of millions, and elegant table manners. Elsie is very happy." "I always thought she'd marry Mort. I s he still enjoying single blessedness?" 'Yes, he's a very eligible bachelor. l i e ' s still behind the counter of one of the leading haberdasheries of Coldwater. M o r t and Levi Wirley are great pals! You know Levi owns 'The Club,' now. S p o t was at the reunion too. H e and Nellie are married. and Spot is the leader of the brass band in a carnival. M a u rice Johnson is the 'strong man; and Leta Dollimore is the 'snake-charmer.'" "Oh. I know some stews I can tell you, if I didn't go to the reunion. I heard Niles lecture lately. He and Shirley are leaders of the National Prohibition Party." "Did you hear the awful news about *Looie' Wirt? H e was experimenting in his laboratory on a new kind of a 'still.' Something went wrong and he was blown to atoms. ' F a t ' Wakeman, a member of the mounted police. but still a great friend of Look, was headed for the cellar when the end came." "Well, I knew that he•sl end by blowing himself up, one way or another." "By the way, did you vote for John at the presidential election last fall? Yo u know that he got his start in politics when he was president of the Senior Class. I went to his inauguration. l i e certainly (lid in II by several members n1 the class. �Russell S m i t h is his favorite chauffeur.

Monroe Duane Sanford Nathan Shafer R. Thomas Louis Wirt Roscoe Wood W. Wright Last fall Mr. Good (as good as his name), who is om senior leader, started something. H e got a few of the fellows so interested in a State Hi Y convention that they decided to attend, and there, by the talks from sonic of the greatest men of the country, sonic of them at least, were first made to realize that there was something else to consider in life besides body and mind. T h e y resolved to complete the Hi Y Triangle of body, mind, and spirit. Since that time, the club has increased in numbers many fold, and they have attended many banquets at Hillsdale and here. O n e of the best of these was the ene at which Tad Wieman. one of the world's greatest foot-hall players. talked to them. T h e y have had wonderfully good times at all of these banquets, in fact they do at all of their meetings. L i n t that is not their chief aim. T h e i r one big purpose is to make more firm the triangle of body, mind and spirit, and a part of every meeting is devoted to each of these. E v e r y time they have some sort of athletics, basket-ball, boxing, etc. A t almost every meeting they get sonic business man to talk of business conditions in the community, and perhaps the most important part of each meeting is the Bible study conducted by M r. Good. I n this they try to put the meaning of that wonder book into their everyday school life, anti we are sure that this study has been of inestimable value to every member of the club. They have a purpose: " To create, maintain, and extend tbroughout the school and community high standards of Christian character." and no one can truthfully say that they have not at least partially, through the campaign against cheating, and by backing the four C's, Clean Living. Clean Speech, Clean Athletics, and Clean Scholarship; accomplished their purpose. B u t the task is not finished. Every senior member of the I l i V leaves C. FI. S. with one sincere wish: May the coming classes do their utmost to continue to create and especially to maintain the highest Christian standards possible. �; �ROOSEVELT DEBATING SOCIETY President K I 'ice-I'resident \ Sieritary Treasurer L A T H R Y N I E O N A R SHATTUCK RV HODGMAN I El.

Aids ugh this club was organized primarily t o f u r t h e r an interest i n debating and public speaking, it has gradually come to take on the air o f a social organization, putting on an annual banquet each year. and having various other meetings of a social nature d u r i n g the year. The club was organized with a membership o f about fifteen o f the high school pupils. w h o were actively interested i n debate and public speaking. T h i s membership has more than doubled, u p t o the present time. T h e fact that the approbation o f the club must be obtained before a new member may be admitted lias excluded several—some o f the members o f the chili feeling the present membership sufficient t o carry on successfully the w o r k o f the club.

First they scheduled a benefit at Tibbitts Theater, but as the class bad not yet awakened to the fact that they had some hard work before them, it did not bring in much financial aid. N e x t the class prepared a Senior Fair, which was well attended and at which they made $186.81. Then the class, with the aid of the faculty and fellow students, put on a musical play entitled "Springtime," under the direction of the Joins Rogers Producing Co. T h i s was a great success, not only in meriting the praise of the audience, but also by netting the class $271.00. I n order to raise the remaining necessary funds it was necessary to place a price of $1.00 on each copy of the Mirror. T h e Staff feels that even at that price the students are getting a book for less than a third of the actual cost. The real work on the Mirror was not begun until nearly two weeks before it went to press and so the various members of the Staff had a great deal to do in a mighty short time. I n presenting this Mirror to you they hope that you will enjoy it, and feel that the project is worth continuing. The Editor wishes to take this opportunity to thank the other members of the Staff. and all those who contributed to the book, for their co-operation and promptness in handing in their material. ��STUDENT GOVERNMENT Several years ago. some time before the present graduating class ever saw the inside o f the Assembly room, there was f o r m e d i n t h i s h i g h school all organization known as the Coldwater I ligh School S e l f Government Association. I t was looked upon as a solution t o all problems. as a cure f o r all ailments. I t rail along for several years, during which time it did little more than conduct the chapel programs a n d keep monitors i n t h e halls d u r i n g consultation period. T h e n as t h e natural result o f idleness, i t gradually pined a w a y a n d i n t w o years passed o u t of existence entirely and nobody seemed t o miss it. Rut t h e Roosevelt Debating Society, viewing the present comlition o f the high school, decided t o resurrect f r o m t h e dead t h i s organ i f self-government. Y o u all k n o w their methods and the result o f their effort. A convention o f students and f a c u l t y assembled t o construct a constitution. The old constitution was used as a nucleus to start w i t h and the existing constitution was formed. T h e r e were i n this convention M a r g a r e t Milnes, N a p i e r A l d rich, A l b e r t Hishrtuan, Robert Rattray, M r. Symons, M r s . Randolph. Miss Moore. and M i s s 'McConkey. The constitution was adopted b y a vote o f the students and f a c u l t y. and t h e Self Government Association became a n established fact. T h e executive c o m mittee consists o f Napier A l d r i c h , President : K a t h r y n Shattuck, Vi c e -President ; Margaret I%lilnes, Secretary: Kenneth Olmstead, J . C . Spade, M a r y I loilgvnan, Joe Aalbregtse. and Dorothy Phinney. T h e legislative committee consists-of these same students and t h e f o l l o w i n g teachers: M r . Symons, M r s . Randolph, M i s s Dean, M i s s Kempster, Miss Heimbach. Miss Weeks, M i s s Moore. and M i s s M c Conkey. The council has passed several bills and resolutions, restored assembly r o o m privileges and the like. A s yet they have had t o deal w i t h n o serious breach o f discipline, but they are vested with authority and could act i f necessary. So you see that the present system o f self-government fundamentally is n o t a new thing, b u t merely an old organ painted over. L e t us not expect too much o f it in order that we may not be disappointed, neither let us expect too little so that we accomplish nothing. R u t l e t u s co-operate w i t h o u r council i n establishing better conditions. and above all, let us not abuse our privileges. but keep our part of the bargain. L e t us create a sentiment so strong against w r o n g doing that the council w i l l not be called upon t o use its authority. This is one o f the o l d institutions o f C . I I. S . T h e " M i r o . - - was a m idler. Hail them both. L o n g may they live. C.

There were many other and varied attractions, namely: The hot-dog stand, movies, home-made candies, fish-pond, cabaret, ice-cream stand, athletic show, thirty-third degree and fortune telling. The bathing beauty show was looked forward to eagerly by members of the masculine sex, who were taken aback at the sight of five tiny goldfish innocently swimming in their glass house.

Although there have been many entertaining and interesting chapel programs given at the High School this year, the one put on by the Faculty was perhaps the most highly enjoyed by the students. N o t often are we given the opportunity of seeing the members of that awe-inspiring body in the undignified positions which they occupied that Wednesday morning. W e saw one of them being given a rather forceful ducking in a tub of hot water, which was really the bath prepared for "poor sick Fido" by his adoring mistress, another one of our faculty. Ye t another was searching for a turkey which he was planning to baste— with a stick of wood. I n the maid, who used perfectly terrible grammar, we recognized another of the austere members of the Faculty. T h e three remaining members of the cast seemed to he occupying more their natural state: the one, who has trained so many football men, being a star himself, while the other two were charming girls, waiting for the return of their brother and his guest, who were expected home from college on a vacation. The student body has always deemed the Faculty (or most of thetn) "good sports," but we were doubly sure o f it after this performance, which they so kindly put on for our entertainment. �JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET T H E evening of June third saw the Elks Temple attired in gayest decorations. Here the annual farewell banquet and dance was given, by the Juniors, to the Seniors and Faculty. T h e banquet was served in the large dining loom, which was very attractive with its bright decorations of class colors. T h e dinner course consisted o f escalloped chicken, potatoes an gratin, peas in timbales, lemon sherbet, salted nuts, hot rolls and chocolate. F r u i t salad and salted wafers comprised the salad course, while brick ice-cream and angel food cake ended the delightful dinner. After dinner the guests, and their hosts and hostesses, enjoyed an excellent program of toasts. M i s s Margaret Milnes acted very efficiently as toast-mistress. Churchill Bradley gave a toast to the Seniors, which was responded to by Miss Phyllis Osborn in a very charming manner. A toast to the Faculty was given by Miss Gertrude Friedrich, and was answered by Miss Irene Weeks. of that august group. T h e conclusion of the program was the reading o f the Class Will, by Ferris Purdy. Originality seemed to be the keynote of the toasts, and some exceedingly interesting stories, not generally known, were told of some of the most severe members o f the Faculty and the most dignified of upper-classmen. The ball room was very charmingly decorated, not the least of the decorations being the dainty gowns of the pretty (lancers. These alone formed a very delightful picture. T h e long evening was spent in enthusiastic dancing. Those present will always remember June third, nineteen hundred and twenty-one, as a redletter (lay. We, the members of the Senior Class, extend to the Class of Twenty-Two our sincere thanks and appreciation for the wonderful entertainment so delightfully given as the last social event of our career in C.

H. S. has some real clean fighting athletics. U n d e r the capable leadership o f Captain Milnes the season ended with a record our foot ball fans can be proud of, �9 The first game of the season was played at Union City. Having only five of last year's men on the team, it was a little doubtful what the outcome would be. After the first few minutes of play our boys began to smash through their opponents without any trouble, and continued to do so throughout the game. T h e final score was C. H. S. 34—Union City 0. T h i s being the first game of the season, many mistakes were made, as was expected, but it put confidence into the boys, which meant a successful season. The second game of the season was a walk-away for the opponents in the first half. T h e Coldwater boys could not forget the whirlwind of a team Kalamazoo had the year before. Every player went into the game with a frightened look that spelled defeat. Kalamazoo took advantage of the situation, and walked down the field time and again for a touchdown. Before the end of the first half, the locals discovered that Kalamazoo was playing on its reputation, so put forth every effort, and during the second half heist their opponents scoreless. I f the Kalamazoo game had been a few weeks later, the local team would have stood a good chance of winning. The next game was played at Sturgis. I t looked at first as though C. H. S. would win an easy victory, but in the second half Sturgis came back strong, and worked pass after pass with success, gaining eight to ten yards each time. I f our opponents could have worked the long pass game on our boys, they would have accomplished more, but our boys were watching for this, so that accounts for the success which Sturgis had in working short passes. O u r line was like a stone wall throughout the entire game, so our opponents tried pass after pass. The final score was 39 to 13 in favor of C. H. S. The following game with Adrian was one of the best games of the season. Our boys were tuned up to a high pitch, anxious to get revenge for the defeat ,uffereil by C. H. S. the year before. A few minutes before the game was called. while the Adrian eleven was warming up, the spectators on the side lines were ready to give the game to the visiting team. T h e Adrian eleven was fast and heavy, but they did not have the "pep- or fight to defeat our aggregation. F r o m the very start, the red and white team outclassed their opponents and sent them home with a score not to be proud of, 26 to 0. The next victim was Hudson. R a l p h Fox and Johnson were on the side lines during this game with slight injuries. Hudson put up a game fight, but did not stand any chance with our team. T h e final score was 21-14 in favor o f Coldwater. The succeeding game with Marshall was a fight from the start to the finish. The game was not won by either team till the final whistle sounded. I t was up to C. H. S. to defeat Marshall, to pay back the defeat handed our boys a year 'Cu �9 ago. Neither train was able to score, being forced to punt a few minutes after gaining possession of the ball. Finally the local boys made the first touchdown by an on side kick. T h i s took the life out of the opponents. and they were unable to get the pig skin near their goal line. The following week the boys made a trip to Albion in cars, during a snow storm. I t was cold, and our team was in no condition to play. Because Coach Martin was delayed on the road with car trouble, the boys were worked up to a nervous point, and played a lifeless game during the first half. I n the second half they came back strong and scored a touchdown before the opponents realized it. Almost a deadlock ensued, but finally Albion succeeded in completing a pass, and scored a touchdown. T h i s encouraged them t o greater efforts, and another pass netted them a good gain, which resulted in a third touchdown made by a line smash which brought the final score to 33-6. The following day the team went to Ann Arbor to witness the Chicago-Michigan game. T h i s was made possible by the good spirit and efforts which the High School put forth during the season. Every boy had a good time, and all felt repaid for the hard grind which they had been put through during the past weeks. We have nothing more to say in regard to the Blissfield game, except that we to not consider it a defeat. The Thanksgiving game with Hillsdale was an easy victory. T h e game was played with straight football from start to finish. Coldwater played a tie game with Hillsdale last year, so it was necessary to show them up this year. T h e visiting team (lid not get in our danger zone at any period during the game. T h e final score was 34-0. I t is expected next year that Hillsdale will be out to seek revenge, but we hope to be prepared. The high School this year loses eight players from the squad. W . Mines, N. Aldrich. C. Loose, M. Johnson. L. Lucas, R. Fox, H. Fox, and II. Hodgman. Captain Milnes has proved himself a capable leader. and was liked by all the men of the squad. H e was strong on both the offensive and defensive side of the game. B i l l will be greatly missed on next year's football field. Nape Aldrich has been one of the best High School punters in this, part of the state. H e out-punted every team this year, and it will be hard to find sonic one to fill his place next year. I his speed in the back field netted our team mans' king gains. Bert Hodgman developed into a very good quarter-back this year. T h i s is the hardest position on the team to fill, for if anything goes wrong it's the fault of the quarter-back. I t generally takes two years to develop a good man for �this place, but after the first few games Bert was holding down the job in a firstclass manner. T o fill his vacancy will he ime of the biggest problems to be solved next year. Tippy Loose was one of the best ends C. H. S. has had in a long time. Tippy would rather catch passes than eat. Ti m e and again he would catch passes which were almost out of reach, and go for a long gain or a touchdown. I t was very seldom that an end run o r a line smash to Tippy's side would work, for he was always on the job. M. Johnson was a new addition to the team this year. H i s brilliant playing on the line made many an opening and stopped many a fine smash. I n the game with Adrian and Hillsdale, when playing at half-back he tore through the line for many long gains. W e will miss his weight and speed next year. L. Lucas started out the season at the position of full-hack as green as you find them. H e worked hard and by the end of the season developed into a good man for that job. H e was not fast, but when he hit the line, he hit hard. I f Lucas were back next year, he would play a star game from the start. R. Fox was the man of the hour. I f Ralph was not mixed up in every play, things didn't go just right. W h e n an opponent got around to his end. Ralph was there to give him a jolt that would make him lose his nerve. H e was one of the most consistent players on the team. both offensively and defensively. I t will be a difficult task to fill "Spider's- place. 11. Fox played in hard luck this season. O w i n g to injuries, he was forced to stay out of the game most of the time. I t crippled the team, because Herb was a hard-hitting back field man and always tried to do mitre than his share. W e are sorry he cannot be back next year to make up for his hard luck this year. John Gage, although not a member of the team, helped in every way to make the team what it was. H e was out every evening and worked hard, knowing that he could not play but still he wanted to do something to help the buys. H e has not only helped in football, but i n all the school activities. W e think his place can never be filled. "Fat- Harley was elected for next year's Captain. H i s playing this year won this position of honor, and he claims that although our losses are heavy this year, C. H. S. will come back strong next year. The following boys are left from this year: Hellenberg, Olmstead, Bradley, Sanford, Jordan, Gruner, Sprague, Smith, Kaiser, Spade, Wright, Davis, Whitcomb. Mohrhardt, and Carpenter. They all played hard this season and will make an awful scramble for a berth on the team next year. "11 ��BOYS' BASKET BALL \ Martin C N. S.

II. S. had rather a slump in basket ball, having apparently expended all her energies on a successful football team ; thus leaving herself exhausted for basket ball. Coach Martin started the year with a bunch of the greenest of green applicants, Aldrich being no exception, in spite of a year's experience. A f t e r a few hard weeks this bunch gained some semblance of a team in the form of floor work, hut remained absolute failures as to basket shooting. �In this flulitloll they yos aged to /liaison, to return a sadder and wiser team. The first half of the Hudson game was a walk-assay for Hudson. our fellows being scared stiff. T h e next half they began to limber up. and Hudson was able to ring up but one more point during this period than their opponents. The following games were a series of defeats, leavened only by the defeat of Hillsdale and Hudson: Hillsdale, a close hard fought battle of many thrills and some beautiful floor work on the part of the locals, and I Nilson a game of sweet revenge. The number of defeats were dejecting, but every man stuck to his job, and through much hard practice the team developed some very good floor work and an impregnable defense. T h e team work was conceded by many local fans, as svell as outside critics, to be equal if not superior to anything our fellows ran up against. B u t in the matter of basket shooting a decided deficiency was shown that could not be overcome by practice. A few weeks before the end of the season, however, "Tootle" Mohrhardt appeared in school and after a week or so of diligent work on his( ?) part, became eligible. H e was a decided addition to the team, for Mohrhardt was well known for his ability in dropping the hall through the elusive hoop, but this year something seemed lacking, and in spite of the combined efforts of the two former team mates, Aldrich and Mohrhardt, it was decided. as the Marshall coach said, "That two men couldn't make a team." Another streak o f hard luck was sustained in the early part o f the season when Hellenberg fractured his arm during practice. H e was able to return toward the end of the season, but lacked the practice and confidence to be of much use. This year's team loses but two regulars, leaving a number o f experienced men for next year, who will be captained by Mohrhardt. O u r heartiest good wishes and support are given these fellows, and we hope they will clean up things next year in a manner that will wipe out this year's record, and again put old C. H. S. on the basket ball map. Hudson 3 Hillsdale 1 Sturgis 3 Three Rivers 3 Sturgis 1 Adrian 1 Marshall 3 Three Rivers 2 Marshall 3 5 8 3 7 1 9 7 SEASON'S RESUI.TS C . H. S. 1 C . H. S. 1 C . H.

In this game the girls' team suffered its first defeat of the season. Unaccustomed to the severe method of refereeing, employed by the Sturgis referee, our team was fouled again and again, and it can truly be said that Sturgis won on fouls, for C. H. S. had more field throws than Sturgis. However, Sturgis had superior team work. TECUNISEH... .32.

T h i s town has always been noted for its excellent girls' team, and it lived up to its reputation in this game. Marguerite Peppiat had her ankle injured in this game and so was unable to finish. Rhea Johnson took her place and played well, being especially good on interference. T h e trip up to Tecumseh was long and tiresome, and the girls were pretty well tired out to play, but the team fought to the last whistle. C . H. S. girls' team will have to win from T. H.

However, in justice to the splendid team work of our girls, it must be mentioned that the referee was a little slack about allowing the Hillsdale players to over-guard. H . H.

The girls' team bad hoped for a victory for the last game, but Three Rivers was destined to win through their superior ability. T h e game was fair and square, and although at times it looked like a victory for C. H. S., Three Rivers cat tied home the laurels. This season has been one of pleasure for those who took part in basket ball. The girls earned the money for maroon sweaters with service strips. A t the close of the season the C's were presented in chapel and each responded with a speech. O n Friday, April 15, the annual Girls' Basket Ball Banquet was given. This ended the season of 1921. ���TRACK CAPTAIN BERT HODGMAN C N I , ter! N ( 7 0 a c h ALPHer I HINT ) 11001:,1 i x C a p t a i n For several years one of the things C. H .

E v e r since Father Adam blamed Mother Eve for making him eat the apple, man has laid the faults of the entire universe at wallahs door. Both man and woman sprang from apes, but woman sprang the farthest, and man has been a jump behind ever since. Some one has said that man hasn't horse sense, his ears being too long, but it has been noticed that he shows unusually good sense in picking out a wife. H e invariably chooses a woman. Odd, but none the less true. A cracked stove and tnan resemble one another quite strikingly. T h e y both smoke, and they are both unpleasant to live with. When man reaches the college stage he enters a period described by Miss Maria Weatherby as "the smart Alec stage.- l i e affects gaudy shirts and loud socks, makes remarks heavy with wisdom in English class, and wears open galoshes that Hap like elephant ears. l i e calls at dormitories, and drapes himself with more or less artistic effects over piano or davenport, and languishes melting glances at the gentler sex. T h e ancient cave man called his lady love " M y Woman." Modern man says. " M y Chicken,- Or " M y Jane." M a n has made surprising intellectual progress, has he not? Man is a four-footed beast, who walks on his hind legs with his fore paws in his pocket. H e excels at eating, playing card,,, spitting between his teeth, and drinking when he can get it.—The Echoettr. ��Branch& Co.'s Olds&Johnson nnillinerp atib Clothcraft Wearing Etyparci Section SUITS A N D OVERCOATS GIMBEL HATS Offers you the greatest variety, Latest Styles at Reasonable Prices.

Were out at last for the sea, Where the winds and the waves make havoc, And the hurricanes dash wild and free. Where the peaceful land which we're leaving Will be but a memory fair, When the stars alone at the evening Will shine with encouragement ther: Not luck, but pluck." But we have no fear for the storming; We sail in a wonderful craft, Built of the strongest of timbers, Through all of four years' work and laugh. And we're raising our flag at the mast high. Can't you see how its emblems do shine! Those good masters who superintended The building, have taught us this line: "Not luck, but pluck." So come on, mates, our good ship is launching; Before lies the blue of the sea; We care not what storms overtake us, Or how rough the voyage may be; 0, we'll fight with the spirit within us, And we'll win because we're "nineteen," And because our flag waves in the sea breeze With its colors of white and of green.

B u t n o w t h a t s_ �Page 20 T H E MIRROR the war has stopped, we find ourselves turning with a sigh away from this sort of literature and seeking some other k i n d t h a t i s o f more interest to us now. W e are more interested n o w i n the articles and books concerning the reconstruction of the world order, both material. iy and spiritually. We can trace the same change b y comparing t h e attitude o f the schools before and during the war with the present attitude. B e f o r e the war we began to see a strong tendency toward the technical specialization. T h e Gary vocational systems was talked o f everywhere and people were universally praising the idea of this sort of training. N o w we find a change taking place and a different motive is gradually acting in our school system. M o r e social sciences a r e being studied along with the practical things and we are t r y i n g t o develop the students in mote than the one line. W e find, o f course, t h e greatest p a r t of the work is along material lines, but at the same time we can see a nobler motive in the present ideas. I n the grades duaing the past year there has been a health crusade. N o w although t h i s was brought about primarily from the fact that a large percentage o f men i n the army were found to be defective physically because o f t h e neglect of some simple thing, such as the care of the teeth, nevertheless it is being carried out for other reasons too. T h e child's aesthetic senses a r e developed by this training and he is taught to see the aesthetic or beautiful part of even the small things of life. There is an unmistakable need for developing this ideal and spiritual tendency. W e must get out of the r u t that we have unconsciously sinking into. W e mm,t not let the gains w e make in material life, in mechanical or commecial achievements, satisfy u s i n themselves; we mbst begin to appreciate the other factors which also play a part in our success. W e perhaps would benefit ourselves i f we adopt an attitude like Hamlet, that "there's nothing in the world, either good or bad, but thinking makes it so," and begin looking for the joy and beauty of life. I f we do this, we surely will be able t o give back lo the world better service. T h e mind is really t h e most powerful force i n the world- history can do nothing other than develop as the social mind does. And so as last year's class left C. 11. S. with an earnest determination to do its part toward ending the great struggle, that was going on, let us go from C. H. S. with an equally earnest determination to do inir part in the social, economical and spiritual reconstruction. L e t us go our different ways, some to school, and some into the business or social world, with a conscious desire t o serve t h e world in the best way we can, and to give for the benefit of others the best that is in us.

P r i n c i p a l Betchel said in chapel that twenty-five freshmen were lost at the end of the first puriod. H e found t h e m floating around the hall. Sept. 15.—The Young People' Society gave u s a reception at the Methodist church and the Seniors gave us one, too, on the sixteenth and still everobody has so many mean things t o say about the freshmen. I don't think they're any different f r o m any one else. I have even heard them say: "The cows are in the pasture, The sheep are on the grass. But all the little silly geese Are in the Freshmen Class." Sept. 27—Tonight we had a class meeting and f o r president we thought Harry Stansell would satisfy us. V i r g i n i a McConkey was elected vice-president, and Edith Milnes, because of her rare ability as penman, was elected secretary. ( W e knew w e would have so many meetings that we would need a regular secretary.) A l i c e Calkins was our choice for treasurer. Our second and third class meetings were devoted chiefly t o de. cide the weighty question of class colors. F o r some unknown reason green and white were chosen. S o m e o f our mean upper class men said that they thought those colors were very appropriate. I ' l l bet that we won't be so mean when we get up in their places. Even though we were just freshmen we had t o send three members to the Student Council. H e l e n Hungerford, Russell Waldron and William Clarke were the ones we picked o u t —or maybe I had better say "picked on." This year the play, " M e r r y M i l k -maids", was given and we find on the cast the names of several of our talented classmen. Very little was done by us in athletics this year.

W e feel t h a t now having elected Milo Ralston, we, as sophomores, have done our share in trying to preserve peace and. order. J e a n e t t e P a l m e r a n d Harriette Cocks w e also thought important requisites in attaining that end. On election day for the first time equal suffrage was granted and we all took advantage o f t h e opportunity and cast our first ballots. Hughes was our choice for President.

G u e s s that we can't brag about anything else in athletics except the " C ' s " that Mike and Herbie got in baseball.

" ' A s You Like It' is a synonym that's fit For the Juniors so they tell." Sept. 7—Mr. Guy Fox, our new principal, gave us his first chapel speech.

T h e "weenie bat" was a decided success and t h e g i r l s are hoping some other members may welcome them as Ruby did.

We were sure glad to have them win, like that. June 5—Feeds having been forbidden because of the war, we gave a reception to our friends, the Seniors at St. Mark's Parish House.

June 6—The Junior.Senior banquet was pulled off tonight and i t surely was a success. Everybody had a peach o f a time, eats, dance, music n' everything. June 9—The Baccalaureate Service wos held last n i g h t a t the Methodist church. R e v.

T h e real speech will be given by Rev. Lloyd Douglas o f A n n A r b o r, s o we are sure going to hear one good speech.

Love to e v e r y b o d y, JEAN �Page 30 T H E MIRROR Letter No. 2. Chicago, Ill. December 22, 1930 Dearest Folks: Well, I am back in old Chicago again in the holiday whirl of this big city. T h i s world surely is a small place. I n Rochester I met many of my old friends who were there for treatment at the hospital, but in this city it seems as if we have a regular Coldwater quarter. My first thought on reaching the city was to hunt up Beryl Swain at her apartment on Mt. Vernon Drive. I t was nearly eight o'clock, so we just had time enough to go out for dinner before going to the theatre. I t was a very agreeable surprise when I learned that there were to be other members of our party, Jeanette Palmer and Marjorie Westendarp. These three girls are the best of friends on account of their common interest. T h e y are costume designers for Lady Duff Gordon. O u r dinner was served in a most elegant manner and was certainly delicious. But this was easily explained when we found that the head waiter, Benjamin Lafene, sees that his Coldwater friends want for nothing. After dinner we went to the theatre. T h e r e was to be aconcert hy four noted artists who have just returned from an European tour. W e had arrived too late to obtain a program, so you can imagine our suaprise when the opening ensemble revealed to our astonished gaze our four old friends, Dale Shumaker, with hls beloved flute, Harriette Cocks with her violin, A l f r e d Rice lustily blowing his trombone, and Margaret Loring presiding at the piano. After the concert, we went to the stage entrance to greet these friends of ours, but it was with much difficulty that we did so because the manager, Mike Ralson, flatly refused to let us see his charges until he recognized us, and then you may believe the nine of us had a fine chat about all the old Coldwater bunch. I must tell you some of the encounters our musical friends h a d while they w e r e i n Europe. I n Paris, the American Amdassador, William Clark, gave a ball f o r his former classmates. I t was a very brilliant affair, and was marred only by the Ambassadors private secretary spraining her ankle. T h e y would not have thought so much of this had they not learned that the secretary was Winnif red Pollockwho had made the best record for speed on the typewriter of anyone who had ever taken it in our school. S h e was soon resting easily because the private physician, Roland Hilliar, a n d the private nurse, Gertrude Higgins, had skillfully reduced the swelling in a very short time. A l l in all this ball was one of the most brillant affairs they had ever attended. On their concert tour through the reconstructed portion of France they were admiring some beautiful landscape gardening when they saw the young lady coming toward them who was responsible for the work. They were naturally pleased to see it was Susie VauAken, who has become the foremost American gardener in this kind of work. This is an awfully long, and l a m afraid, somewhat tiresomeletter, so I will say good-night. Yours with love, JEAN. �THE M IRROR P a g e 31 L e t t e r No. 3.

T h e r e are five men with more than one " C " and two new men with one " 0 ' . The following is the record of each one of them: WALDRON, RUSSELL, "Sheapy-, acting captain o f last year's football, never found himself in athletics until last year. H e p u t u p a good game at fullpack and also played well at center i n basket ball. "Sheapy" has won two football "C's" and one basket ball "C". RALSTON, M I L O , " M i k e " was a sufferer from hard luck in athletics, but in his Senior year finally stuck the season out and was one of the standbys in the line. M i k e is the winner of three " C ' s " i n t h e Senior class; although M. Hilton may come under that head later in the year. M . A. C. secures " M i k e " next year. BIRCH, HERBERT " R e d " slthough, leaving school to join the Students Training Camp, returned i n time to win his basket ball "C". "Red" was football captain this year and, although, only playing in two games, was always on the job. " R e d " i s t h e o t h e r member of the three " C " triumvirate. HILTON, MAX, one of the Kinderhook boys, put up the star game of any individual on the football team and ought to make a good man for M. A. C. in a few years.

"Russ" acquitted h i m s e l f i n good style and only lack of experience prevented him from being a star. H e is fast and heavily built and has a gridiran future before him. PFOST, EVERETT, arriving i n school just before t h e close o f foot ball, made a good showing and earned his " I t " . H e was also upon the bate ball team and while playing a style all of his own, delivers the goods. BOWSER, CLYDE, would n o d o u b t have made the football team last year, but preferred to devote his ability and time to baseball a n d chances are very favorable that he will w i n his letter.

The History o f the Class o f 1918. On September 3, 1914, we entered the training camp of Coldwater High School. W e were some eighty strong on that day. W e were reviewed by General Johnson, commandant of the camp, a very fine appearing officer. W e were given four days leave in which to g e t ready for training. W e reported on Tuesday, September 7th t o Lieutenant General Bechtel, in charge o f t h e receiving station, situated i n t h e High School auditorium. H e r e we were formed into a Freshman B r i gade and divided into squads under command o f faculty Captains, f o r the purpose of being more easily trained in the rudiments of warfare. We were permitted to organize as a social unit and elected Bill Foy as president, Kathryn Woodward as vice president and Myrtle Allen as secretary and treasurer. For many days we were the subject of much fun for t h e seasoned veterans of the camp. I t was some time before we learned thoroughly the location of the barracks where we were supposed to go for instruction. By careful execution of all orders, we were able t o g e t t h r u , and finish our f i r s t year of training. O f the once large Brigade, however, only about sixty remained. S o m e were n o t able to go farther because of ill health or work and also because a f e w thought they had gained sufficient knowledge. So things went on and w e were instructed i n t h e rudiments of learning necessary to soldiers in the army of education. After nine months of intensive training, orders came f r o m headquarters that because of our efficient and diligent endeavor during the past nine months, we were to be given a furlough. L o u d and joyous were the cheers that echoed thru our ranks when this order came. We returned to our training after our enjoyable furlough, n o t as raw recruits but as trained and seasoned veterans. Our organization was no longer known as t h e Freshman Brigade but as the Sophomore Brigade. W e veterans were self appointed t o �Page 14 T H E MIRROR instruct the Freshman Brigade in the rudiments o f M i l i t a r y training much to our joy and their dislike. As the days passed on we again organized into a social unit, choosing for our leader Bill Kibbe, for assistant leader, Neva Keel, as secretary, Marjorie Lockwood, and as treasurer, Bill Foy. During the following months we took u p more intensive training that was to fit us to tight the battles of life. Near the end of our second nine months of training, orders came to prepare for a track meet. W h e n that meet came off, our team held second place, the team from the company o f Seniors taking f i r s t b y one-half point. N o t long after this again came welcome orders to prepare for a furlough. By the time we returned from this furlough, our regiment was reduced until it was now only the strength of a battalion. Entering on the third year of our training as officers, w e started off by electing the officers of our social unit. Kathryn Woodward was our first assistant, Neva Keel our second assistant, and again we choose Marjorie as secretary and Bill as treasurer. Our training this year was much mote difficult than i n previous years, the two subjects, Physics and English I I I being v e r y difficult for certain persons. While we were not spending our time on these two topics, we were trying to raise a fund sufficient in amount to furnish a farewell feed for the departing company of Seniors. B y a Junior F a i r and a benefit this amount was finally raised. During this time a call had come for a cross c iuntry team and also a track team. O u r noble team won first in both events. T h e n came the all important feed for the Seniors. A l l who were in attendance admitted it to be a wonderful event, even the haughty Seniors themselves admitted that it was incomparable. Not many days before this, there came dispatches saying that our country had declared war o n German Militarism. W i t h these dispatches came a call for volunteers. T o this call t h e following s i x o f our fellow class men responded: C h a r l e s Shannon, Bernard Corson, Ralph Barrack, Percell Overly, Rodney Parker and Webb A u l t . N o t long after this for the third and last time we were given a furlough. Again our number was reduced and lessened for many reasons so that when we came back only a company was left of our one proud and powerful Fresh man Brigade. For the last time officers were chosen to lead us thru the struggle of another year. Z e k e Osborn was chosen as president, Clyde L i g h t as vice president and for the third time we chose Marjorie and Bill. No sooner had we elected officers than we began to consider various plans for raising money to pay our class expenses. T h i s was done by having a fair and a play. �THE MIRROR P a g e 15 Soon came the call for a debating team. F o u r out o f the five members were Seniors. When the cross country and track meet came off the Seniors easily won f i r s t i n both events. N e a r t h e end of May our friends, the Juniors, gave us a farewell banquet. On the following Sunday night, Rev. Donald MacCluer delivered the baccalaureate sermon. O n Wednesday night we answered t o the last roll call and received our commissions in the A r m y of Life.

That war was sure some exciting, but I wouldn't have missed i t for anything. B a c k here i n Coldwater reminds m e o f '18 when I graduated. I ' v e heard quite a little about the different members of the class. A f t e r I had been "Over There" about t w o years, I h a d m y first trouble. G o t hit in the shoulder and while I was in the base hos pital who should come along but Myrtie Ralston. B e l i e v e m e I was some surprised. I remembered she could hardly wait to graduate so she could go in training to become a nurse. I only spoke w i t h h e r a short time. S h e said that Starr Farwell was at the head o f t h e Battalion of Death in Russia. P r o b a b l y his Latin helped him to learn the new languages in the old country. I sure had a hard time with French. 'Twas all I could do to get thru first year Latin in High School so that wouldn't help me much i n French. O u r old friend " O c t y " was r u n ning a transport back and forth across the great pond. G o s s i e in the navy had been i n love about f o r t y times w i t h R e d Cross nurses bound for the front. Just t h a t day M y r t l e had had a letter from Neva IC. S h e and "Doc" were located happily on a farm in Alabama. F u n n y how people scatter. I t seems that "Doc" was exempted 'cause he was a farmer. October 2. M e t Myrtle Allen down town, and w e g o t t o talking the class of '18. S h e has not changed in a n y way except her name. She said that Klock had been doing government work which kept him in this country. I believe he is located near Baltimore. C o u r s e , I asked her where Hellen S. was. S h e said she'd been t o Vassar and had graduated with honors. A t present she is visiting Russell in Baltimore. M a r j o r i e Lockwood and Bill Kibbe still were going together. She is a senator now and he the President's chief adviser. N i c e they're located in the same city. A l l of Marjorie's load of books s h e used t o carry home from school were some help after all.

C l y d e Light has been in the secret service department and has become quite efficient in rounding up German spies. Harold Draper has taken over the running of his father's farm and made heaps of money. I t seems that he has become so overwhelmed with dollars that he gives them away by the handful. I remember 'I'. E. J. used to say in history class that a farmer always made money during a war. T o o bad I didn't stay at home on the farm! I learned that Ruth Day had been living i n Kinderhook a l l t h i s time. I think she has been running the village store while her husband went to war. C o o k i e on his farm north of the city has invented a wonderful piece of machinery. I t is used in stump clearing H e is now manufacturing them in Chicago.

Waldo Presentation of Diplomas . T . E. Johnson Class Song. Class Ye l l Athletics. Senior Weerere of C'e. No class of late years has been honored more in an athletic sense than the class of 1918. I n all branches of sport the class has been ably represented and upon several occasions the strength of t h e different teams depended upon these boys who are going to leave C. H . S . t h i s year. Not for some time to come, perhaps at least until the war has been won, will Coldwater High School boast of "C" men who have completed their work, both academic and athletic, so well and with so much vim as the " C " men of 1918. In football, the major sport of C. H . S . t h e y have Goss, Crull, Klock, Hodgman, Foy, McConkey and Gage: In baseball, Klock, Goss, Foy and Crull. In basketball, Foy, Klock, Crull, Goss, Osborn and Hodgman. The track work, Foy, Crull and Osborn. They have won the inter-class meet the last t w o years b y over. whelming scores due to the efforts of these same eight men. ��THE MIRROR P a g e 23 Individually these men represent a clean living, ambitious set o f athletes and whether they leave to fight the "hun" or to fight life's bat. this, the work they have had along these lines will aid them i n no little way for the " B i g Fight." Clarence "Cupid" Goss is about t h e most consistent of this group of boys, ably competing his four years in basketball, four years in football, and one year in baseball. H e has showed a fineness and fitness in each sport that would be hard t o be surpassed. C r e d i t must be given him for his splendid control of the men under him while he was captain of certain teams. Russell Klock, who has really made his athletic name i n football, has also won his basketball and baseball " C " and is rather a versatile athlete and if he carried on h i s education, should make a name f o r himself. I n football "Russ" is one of the most ideal ends a t blocking and tackling it was ever my pleasure to see. "Octy" Howard Crull, captain of last year's football team and with Foy the only wearer of four "C's" now in school has performed w e l l upon all four teams. H e has the "personality" t h a t inspires the opponents with deadly fear and did much to cause many well started end runs to fail. " O c t y " also made a record o f over f o r t y feet w i t h t h e shot in track work. Foy, William " B i l l " the real veteran of Coldwater's athletic teams is a strong man along the lines of basketball and football altho he won his letters in the other branches, it was really in the first two where he was at his best. Osborn, Kenneth "Zeke", alga) "Zeke" won his basketball letter, it was in track work where he became state wide famous. Z e k e has won two track "C's" and bids fair to follow the footsteps of " H e c k " if he follows up his chance. H i s race a t Grand Rapids o f eight miles was a wonderful thing when we consider he had n o : trained f o r t h e event. " Z e k e " is one example of clean living and regular training and what can be done by systematic work. Hodgman, James "Jim". A l t h o rather late i n getting started, "Jim" was good enough to make up for his lost time when he d i d arrive. H e was an ideal plunging fullback and did much to helpour team of 1918 make its excellent record. McConkey, Lowell, "Mac" did not do much i n athletic lines u n t i l his Senior year but put in one year on the Reserves and then put in a year at end on the regulars and played a consistent game throughout. Gage, George, "Jawn" is left to the last as an example of plugging perseverance and what it will eventually do. H e played three years on the Reserves and in his Senior year won h i s coveted " C . " " J a w n " was t h e stumbling block of many an aspiring football s t a r by their connection with some part of his anatomy. H e i s the type of man Who invariably makes good.

Our soldier and sailor boys so brave With homes and lives at stake, Have gone to fight on land or wave Offering their lives for democracy's sake, "Each one doing his bit."

P r i z e s were awarded to the girl and boy most attractively costumed. A n o t h e r part of the evening's program was a colored scene.

The Senior play after much effort on the part of the Director, Mrs. Milnes, and the pianist, Mrs. Thompkins, proved a great success. T h e class of '18 certainly appreciates their untiring effort and faithfulness in making it a success. The play itself was very "pat." T h e plot was laid in Paris during the period of war. T h e time of the leaving of the recruits for the front and their return to their homes expired during the two acts. The scenes and costumes were very attractive. R e g u l a r uniforms were worn by the soldiers and the village maidens were characteris. tically dressed in fancy peasant costumes. T h e music was martial and catchy. T h e characters were well suited to their parts and carried them out finely. The Senior class certainly is to be congratulated on the outcome of its play. �THE M I RKOR Page 29 3t goo THE GREAT RALSTON SHOES pug With Neolin Sole is the only Shoe to buy !our 3uorg — = S O L D O N LY B Y- - MITCHELL.— of us gnu Phone 473-J.

So that when after years are passed Our friendships won't be broken. Herein you'll find illustrious deeds Of Seniors great and small; We're sure you'll want to copy them, For they'll help you one and all. We've put our teachers' records here, Although their deeds are few. We think that they deserve a place, For they've helped us—maybe—too. Stories, poems and the like We've put in here and there, To prove we have some talent I f we don't show it everywhere. And one thing else we wish to add We haven't said before,— That in all four years in C. H. S. We've had good times galore. So now dear underclassmates, We dedicate this Mirror, Although it is a trifle now, Sometime it may be dearer. • N. L. Clizbe, '15. , •• , �2 T H E MIHHOIL You a l l k n o w Miss Frnmaw Wimps.

W e are glad t o recognize and we appreciate the motives which influenced you in coming here. T h i s is the climax of four years of both work and pleasure and, while we have enjoyed many good times together, we feel that we have had many valuable experiences that have, in a measure, prepared us f o r the future. W e realize now, as we never have before, the value and importance of a High School education. The advantages t o be derived from f o u r years spent i n a High School are many, and t h e y are familiar to almost everyone. T h i s is an age of specialization, and the High School student is enabled to choose the line o f work that he wishes t o follow after he graduates. T h e n through the school associations he learns his relationship to his fellow students, so that he is better fitted f o r the social life of a community. While we have been pursuing our course we have received help and encouragement from those who are interested i n the school, especially from the members of the faculty. O u r teachers have not only taught us the lessons in the textbooks, but they have given us a high standard of ideals and morals. W e wish to thank these friends for all the assist. once we have received from them. We have also to thank the school board f o r the provision they have made f o r the high grade instruction that has been offered us I t is through their efforts t h a t our High School i s one of the best in the state, and we are glad to express our appreciation to them. But we feel that we should give the greatest thanks to the parents who have given us these opportunities. I t is sometimes difficult f o r parents to send their boys and girls to school, and we are glad that the fathers and mothers of today realize the value of a good eduacation and �12 T H E MIRROR are a n x i o u s t o g i v e t h e i r c h i l d r e n all t h e p o s s i b l e a d v a n t a g e s o f one.

Class Prophecy of 1915. I t is the evening of June 10, 1935, and the spacious gymnasium of the new High School of Coldwater is gorgeously decorated with flow. era, palms, brown and gqId festoons, and banners of C. H. 8 '15. In the center of the hall are the tables beautifully decorated and laid ready f o r the feast. A t one end of the hall i s the orc..estra ready to receive the guest of honor with a grand flourish of music. Y o u ask why all this splendor and anxious expectation—why haven't you heard? The class of 1915 are celebrating their twentieth anniversary in honor of their old classmate, Roscoe Emerson Stewart, who was i n the last election, elected President of the U. S. At the door you meet t e reception committee composed o f Bessie Holway, Nina Pelton, Frank Tuttle and Harold Parker. I t is to these few members of the class that we owe our thanks f o r such a splendid event. S i n c e they still remained in the city, they took i t upon them• selves to look up the whereabouts of the other members of the class and send out the invitations. We find that Frank Tuttle ,s ,,ow in partnership with his father in the furniture business. A l t h o u g h he is a prominent business unin, he occasionally rinds time to write poems f o r magazines and local papers which his aesthetic character is beautifully portrayed B e s s i e Hol way is still at home, keeping house f o r her father, and running opposition to the city bakery in baking bread H a r o l d Parker ha, taken up the trade of professional dyeing in the dye house on South Monroe st rect. Nina Pelton is also at home, taking care of her parents in their old age The other members of the class are now beginning to arrive and the committee i s greeting t h e m one a f t e r another. F i r s t we see Marian H a r r i s entering, who says she i s now teaching Domestic Science in Union City. T h e n Merle Bennett, who is now manager or the White City farm, and h i s piosperous little housewife, "Leelie," (Lucile Clizbe). T h e n Charlotte Hawes, who is teaching physical train ing i n Alaska, with Gertrude Gripnian, who became a trained nurse, and then married a congressman and lives in Washington T h e ITI,Wie star, Charles Clarke (president of the class), who is now playing the part of John Bunny, was the next to arrive. H e was followed by Fern AcMoody, who has just signed a contract to teach a country school for boys. P r e s e n t l y Rosamond Pollock, now an easterner living in Massa chusetts, joined the m e r r y company. T h e n comes Reo Ryder, new manager of Mr. Cowell's office. N e x t is Capt. Arnold Hellenberg, who �THE MIRROR had to leave his company of regulars, at West Point, to attend this ban. guet. N o r m a Wirley, who is tea_hing kindergarten in the south, and Jennie Weage, who spends her leisure moments driving that rattling good car of Deabler's,'were the next to present themselves. F o l l o w i n g these came Nina Brown, who is keeping house for a nice looking young man whom she captured early in her career. N e x t to come was the star actress of the U. S., Marjorie Curless, A f t e r her we sees ministerial looking man who turns out to be Clarence Grove, who is home from his missionary duties in Turkey f o r a short visit. L u c i l e Bansford came next—she is now teaching in a newly founded institute in the west. Immediately behind her is Zella Waldron, who now occupies the position (in about the same manner) formerly held by Nellie Driggs. The next arrival is Ruth Zeller, who is a successful bookkeeper f o r a large firm in Chicago. The committee next greets Carlton Perry, the honored postmaster of Girard. T h e next to pass the committee and disappear in the confusion of the fast gathering crowd i s Dorathea Cook, who gives lessons in elocution. W e know the person with the long and easy stride to be Malvern Blackman, the latest addition to Michigan's body of surveyors. The next is Esther Youse, the naturalist. W e know the next, by his stately bearing, to be Irving Stansell, the man who trims the people in the noble fashion of a legal adv'sor.

To the Triple Crown I'd not bend down— But this is a different thing! I'd not fight with the Powers of A i r — Sentries pass him through! Drawbridge let fall—His the Lord of us all— The dreamer whose dream came true. Why does Kipling so exalt the person whose dreams come true? I s he such a rare individual that he stands above all others? I t would seem that he is. H e is the king of the world. W h y ? Because he has had the satisfaction of seeing his most cherished hope gone from a mere dream, a misty vision, into a reality that anyone may recognize. We all have our dreams today, and dreams have always held their place in the heart of every person regardless of the vogue of materia things in the outside world. J o a n of A r c dreamed of an unconquered �IS T H E MIRROR France as she sat on the hillside, unmindful of her scattered flock; Na. poleon, while still a boy, saw himself as the ruler of Europe, seated on a golden throne and surrounded b y a magnificent court; Bismark dreamed of a united Germany; Lincoln dreamed o f an emancipated race; and Edison dreamed of hearing the world's talent long after that talent was gone. But all of these people did more than to dream. A l o n g with their dreams they possessed h i g h ideals, those high determinations, the steps by which they made their dreams come true. T h e s e they never lost sight of o r laid down, however difficult it might be to keep them, for without these ideals their dreams might never have come true. Our ideals are the framework of our accomplishments, and the rosy day dreams are the thread w i t h which we weave our patterns. W e may not attain our hearts desire if we neglect one of the ideals. W e constantly change the designs o f our dreams as we grow older, but the same threads are always there. W e even change our ideals, yet when the pattern is complete and we have attained our highest desire, we readily see familiar threads of our childish dreams of long ago. A small boy with a white, delicate face once stood looking at beautiful Lake Geneva and the mountains around it. H i s little beauty lasing soul longed to put the picture on a canvas just as he saw it, but he was too poor to buy a brush and paints, so he drew with a stick in the sand, promising himself each day as he did so that sometime he should put it on a real canvas in its true colors. Years later as he sat despondent inn garret in the Latin quarter of Paris, the beauty of the Alpine scene came before him; he seized his brush and palette and set to work to paint it, his heart growing lighter as he worked until a little tune bubbled out of his heart. A f t e r days of hard work and privation, the picture was completed, and he secured permission to hang it in a gallery. T h e world looked at his picture and at once proclaimed him a master artist. B u t where the world only saw a beautiful picture, he saw a cherished dream comae true and his heart was glad that it had happened even better than his dreams because he was true to his task and to his ideals. Like the master artist if we would gain our goal, we must be willing to endure hardship and privation. W e should not regard the years as long through which we pass to make true our dreams, for time has no place in dreams. W e may not overlook the little things that offer us advances toward our aspirations, for as someone has aptly said, "It's the little things in life that count." Whatever we undertake must be well done and then we are neaer the realization of our dreams.

Promptly at six thirty we assembled in the parlors of the Methodist church, which were very artistically decorated in the Senior class colors, brown and gold. H e r e we mingled with the faculty and Juniors in an informal reception, and a few minutes later were called t o the banquet.

H —Rah ! 8 —Rah ! R a h ! Junior-Senior Chapel Friday morning, May 25, the Seniors and faculty were very pleasantly surprised by a chapel program prepared by the Juniors. First, Mr. Cowell gave a nice little talk as a farewell to the Seniors and then the Seniors gave a few yells. About this time they saw the Juniors moving toward the piano, and shortly the strains of t h e following song to the tune of " I t ' s a Long, Long Way to Tipperary". Up to Mr. Percy went the Senior class one day, There wasn't hardly anyone that knew just what to say, Because they were all Freshmen And they toil and cut the air, Till Bechtel told them that it couldn't do, and was not fair. CHORUS: I t s a long way to plow thru High School, It's a hard hill to climb, It's a long way to a diploma, To the honor of the time, Farewell upper classman, You have stood it well. It's a sad, glad way that's why you tarry, But our heart's right there. Now they were all Sophomores and they knew a little more, Began to know a few thing, but they didn't know what for. They began to save their pennies for a spicy little spread, They gave to those darn Seniors who have now gone on ahead. Coo. �pr TRR MIRROR 2 3 Now we called them Juniors and they thought they knew a lot. They had to earn more money, but they knew not how or what, But they finally got the sheckels and then they had the feed, But this year they are Seniors, and have not a thing to heed. CHO. Then the following yell for the Seniors was given: Clarke, Byers, Waldron, Hawes, Yes They deserve lots of applause, AcMoody, Clizbe, Corless, Cook. Together could make up a book Gripman, Harris, Hart, Holway, They do nothing but pass the time away, Lind, Pollock, Preston, Ryder, Ransford, Soldatt, Vogt, Snyder Waldron, Weage, Wimer, Wirley, In this piece they come not early, Youse, Zellar, Pelton, Brown, Most of these walk up and down, Barnard, Bennett, Blackman, Clinefelter, Whose typewriter keys go hilter.skilter, Parker, Perry, Shenie, Stansell, These the Seniors could not cancel, Stewart, Tuttle, Wright, Grove, Hellenberg, Rah ! R a h ! R a h Jove; The Seniors then answered w i t h a few more yells, and shoved how much they appreciated the efforts of the Juniors. T h e beauty of the assembly was also greatly increased by three cartoons of members of the Senior class, Roscoe Stewart as a singer, Gertrude Gripman as a kindergarten teacher, and Irving Stansell as a lawyer. Senior Map Breakfast. Perhaps one of the most pleasant school functions of the year was the May breakfast, which was served b y members of the Senior class at the Baptist church Tuesday morning, May 5th. T h e affair was arranged for the purpose of raising funds with which to defray our corn• rnencement expenses. The morning was damp and rainy, but this condition of affairs did not hinder those who had charge of the meal from being at the church at an early hour. A t 6 o'clock the serving began and lasted from then until 8:30. I t was quite a novel idea to take the f i r s t meal o f the day away from home, and so about 250 people availed themselves of the op. portunity. E v e r y b o d y seemed well repaid f o r their efforts, f o r the splendid menu, together w i t h the attractive appearance of the tables, �24 T H E MIRROR w h i c h w e r e d e c o r a t e d w i t h f l o w e r s , g a v e t h e w h o l e a f f a i r an agreeable a t m o s p h e r e .

Galliaest made straight for the big city; Omnisdivisa followed a vanishing dam. sel into a dressmaking shop; while Inpartestres—our hero—strolled down an alluring by-path. Many were the adventures each had to relate when he met with his brothers in a year and a day. Galliaest proudly exhibited the miraculous '.wishing carpet," seated upon which one could be transported to any desired location in a twinkling o f the eye. O f course this was nothing else than a Ford. Divisaest had acquired a mysterious mirror, probably the " M i r r o r of Fashion." F o r it is quite possible that such things may be found i n select society. B u t Inpartestres had, a truly wonderful gift. H e hoped i t would be the "apple of her eye". N o w any deaf mute would spy that it was a diamond ring. Together they sought the object of their affections who was again doing her d u t y dutifully. B u t why continue? T h e sparkle took her eye and the wedding bells rang merrily as is the custom of marriage bells.

The Ambition of the Senior. A certain Senior in the class of 1915 wished t o make himself famous H e wished t o invent some new method o f cleaning dishes, other than b y washing them w i t h soap and water. H e had also labored t o rind some way of making trees grow upside down. B u t "the schemes o f mice and men gang a f t agley," and s o was i t with t h e schemes of this illustrious Senior. H e tried to discover so many seemingly impossible things that I really think his gray matter had begun to send out l i t t l e rays of knowledge for his head was most always surrounded by a hazy, gray atmosphere. On one memorable day in March i n the year of 1915, as the occupants of the assembly room sat plying what few brains were available, to get their lessons f o r the following day, an unusual sound issued from that corner of the room known as the "Seniors' Recluse." P r i n . �IS T H E MIRROR Bechtel raised his head and glowered in the aforesaid direction. A n d to see the figure of a certain Senior dancing about, flinging his arms aloft and yelling, " I have, I have it," certainly chilled the blood of our honored pedagogue for a second. B u t in a trice Mr. Bechtel was walk. ing down the aisle and i n another trice was escorting poor M r. Senior out to safer quarters, which, by the way, was the chemical laboratory. Here our illustrious Senior had to stay. Perhaps you think he had cause to worry, but on the contrary he made use of his misfortune by using his leisure moments in perform. ing his experiments. The thought that had come to his brain while in the assembly room and had caused all t h e disturbance was that one which urged him to make sunbeams out of cucumbers. Y o u t h i n k that was a laughing matter, but I assure you it was a most serious one. He then set about to catch a sunbeam, which was no easy task. A l l manners of traps were set to do the deed. S t i c k y flypaper was even pressed into service to ensnare the delicate, timid sunbeams. One morning as lie was about to give up in despair, he spied a stray sunbeam stealing into the room. H o w beautiful i t was. so happy and gay, and oh how badly he hated to catch it, but his fame depended on his procuring it. Seizing his electric tweezers, he made a quiet but quick raid on the beam arid caught it I n spite of all the wriggling and squirming, little sunbeam was placed in a glass jar for further use. The search was begun f o r the proper acids etc., that were to be used on poor sunbeam H a v i n g a little knowledge as to the composition of the beam, Mr. Senior did n o t have as hard a time as one might imagine finding his proper acids. In the first place, the sunbeam was divided into several parts and put into separate dishes. Ta k i n g one portion h e put onto it one cubic beamometer of epizudimetric acid. N o re-action took place. Ta k i n g another portion, a drop or two of bugothewisp was added which was such a strong compound that it entirely destroyed time sample of the sunbeam as well as the dish holding it The next experiment was to take a long, small, iron cylindrical, perforated pipe and supported it at both ends by blocks of wood. I n t° this pipe was placed a section of the sunbeam. T h r o u g h the holes of the pipe chlorine was forced with great velocity, in fact, with such great velocity that the beam was forced out at one end, and, of course, flew away. T h i n g s had begun to look pretty discouraging, when three experiments had been done and no results had followed. T w o other experiments were tried but were of no avail. Taking his last sample of sunbeam in one hand and his bottle of precious compound, known a s M o r t a w e e o u r e g w a m p u s acid (Mq2ZHP5TS7), in the other, he poured a few drops onto the bit of sun- �THE M I R R O R 2 9 beam. 0 b l i s s !

When I took over as the advisor for the yearbook in late January, we were having serious problems in each of these areas; the problems continued to plague us throughout the second semester as well. However, the problems were finally overcome, and we are pleased to present to the student body and community this edition of the Viking, which is entitled, 100 Years o f Viking Pride. Three members of the staff deserve special mention for their hard work, positive attitudes, and their ability to get things done. They are: Dawn Miller, Jodi Woods and Rhonda Cook. Without the efforts of you three this book never would have been completed. Also, I would like to thank Ron Philbrick o f Carousel Studios and Ray Smith of the Bronson Journal for their time and pictures, many of which were used in this year's Viking. Many thanks also to Lee Zimmerman of Taylor Publishing for your "Let's-goget-'em" attitude and also for helping us lay out pages. I'm sure that you have a few additional grey hairs due to this year's Viking. To Bev Weaver, thank you for all of your help and advice; it was invaluable and I greatly appreciate it. Lastly, Linda Weber thank you for helping with the typing. Over the course o f the year, the yearbook had three different advisors. With all of these changes and the subsequent lack of consistent, coherent guidance to the staff, a number of events and groups are not represented in this book. To anyone who may feel slighted, please accept my apologies and understand that nothing was intentionally left out. By the time everyone receives their yearbook, I will be gone, and therefore, I would like to leave a couple of thoughts for next year's editor and staff. To next year's editor — Your main role is to guide and support the staff; it is not to be "the boss," also be willing to work hard and have pride in the quality of the yearbook. To the staff — pull together and be supportive of each other because i f you don't you will surely splinter apart, and that will make your work a thousand times more difficult. Also, remember that while it's a lot of work it should also be a lot of fun.

This year's Homecoming also came with a few surprises: The introduction of the first Viking mascots, the addition of a junior court, and the revining of the parade through town which drew a large crowd. Following the traditional bonfire, the Vikings played a masterful game, but the Maple Valley Lions slipped by with a 7.0 victory. During halftime, the Juniors were awarded first place for the best float. Seniors captured second; Sophomores, third; and Freshmen, fourth.

Bronson tied for first in the Pennfield Tournament and finished second in the Bronson Invitational. Coach Woodcox noted that the team fulfilled his expectations as many good players were lost from last year's team. "The boys came within a few points of winning many of their matches but were not able to pull out a victory.At the conclusion of the school year Mr. Woodcox retired from his teaching career, but plans to continue coaching girls' and boys' tennis. He has spent long hours building a tennis program for Bronson and should be commended for his diligent efforts.

"Just Between You and Me" was the theme chosen by the junior class and the ballroom and hallways were beautifully decorated i n maroon, creme, and pink. Everyone enjoyed dancing to the music provided by "Jinx." The traditional Grand March was also very entertaining. A first: The Garter Ceremony involved the boys wearing their dates' garter on their arm and keeping it as a souvenir. 4 106 P r o m • a - �3\0 Dctuteri nt••• 6.

The theme for the week was "Nothing Serious!," with individual themes for each day: Monday, Hats n' Shades; Tuesday, Switch (guys dress like girls and vice versa); Wednesday, Toga (with the slave auction also); Thursday, Summer Daze (Primarily Hawaiian shirts); and Friday, Down and Out in BHS (bums and bag ladies). A zany assembly held on Friday afternoon featured such competitive events as the ever popular obstacle course, the lemon eating contest, the battle of the belchers and a new legs contest. The evening activities held on Friday at 7 P.M. ended the grueling, but fun, competition between t h e classes. E v e n though t h e underclassmen worked hard and putup a good fight, the seniors were victorious. To add a finishing touch, t h e MORP (backwards P R O M ) w a s h e l d i n t h e cafetorium. The D.J.'s for the evening were Kim and Lori Cranson, otherwise known as "Dead Fish on the Beach." The "totally tasteless" event ended around midnight with many tired people pitching in t o get the cafetorium back to its "pre-Morp" condition. The week really was "Nothing Serious!" • 4 5. 110 Tw i r p Week 6 �"Mr 8 • 0 11 10. Can you name these legs? Hats n' Shades in choir?! Karyn Czajkowski a n d t h e lemon eating contest.

Our Freshman year was just present, and now it's in the past. I just can't get over it, it seems so strange, yesterday we were the youngest here, and today we reign. Next thing! knew, it seems it happened over night, I was a Sophomore already. Wait, this can't be right. I was having such a good time with all of my friends, then all of a sudden, my Junior year was just around the bend. One morning I woke up and looked in my mirror, something wasn't right — I was starting my Junior year. While I was dreaming one night, I woke at the dawn only to find out the night was our Junior-Senior Prom. All of a sudden class was interrupted by the school P.A. Senior Class meeting will be held on Monday. When's our Senior trip, what colors will we wear? Decisions, this doesn't seem fair. Next thing! knew I was up on the stand with a smile on my face and a diploma in my hand.

There is a copy written by the yearbook staff displaying their varied styles; and there are pictures representing the wide spectrum of student life, reflecting the personalities of so many. All of it is forever imprinted on the pages of time. I would like to express my gratitude to: Ray Smith of the Bronson Journal for sharing his photographs; Morris Wood for the most recent aerial view on page two; Ron Philbrick and Floyd Prater of Carousel Studios for photographing our students and staff and encouraging us when we attempted o u r o w n ; L e e Z i m m e r m a n , representing Ta y l o r Publishing Company, whose positive attitude and excitement kept us going when the going got tough; our advertisers who gave us their financial support, and my yearbook staff people who made this an enjoyable job. A special note of appreciation goes to Michelle Perkins whose quiet spirit, gentle ways and persevering attitude made her a joy to work with. It is her ability to visualize and verbalize that makes this book a success. "To everything there is a season and a time for every purpose under the heaven" wrote Solomon.

An annual sports night in the gym gives students the opportunity to participate in a wide range of activities s u c h a s v o l l e y b a l l , basketball, gymnastics, and ping pong. Each year in May the eighth graders take a trip to Chicago, where t h e y v i s i t t h e F i e l d Museum of Natural History, the Shedd A q u a r i u m a n d t h e Science and Industry Museum. The trip begins at 7 a.m. and ends at 10:30 p.m., making it a long b u t educational a n d enjoyable day. A magazine sale which was held f r o m S e p t e m b e r 1 9 through October 1 5 profited $1,826.13, and provided money for the Chicago trip and other junior high expenses.

Without the members and their extra effort, cherished memories of the school year might be easily forgotten. The Viking staff certainly takes pride in their important role at our school. In August, some of the staff members enjoyed a cookout at Pokagon State Park, where they made plans for the 1985 Yearbook. Following this, was a time of recreation. 2. 1. Kim Smith, Shelly Geiger, and Jamie Wilson are discussing layouts for the sports section of the yearbook. 2.

Tears fill our eyes Because it's all gone, We're starting a new life, We have to move on. We hope friends will keep in touch As the years pass us by, Although it hurts inside We'll try not to cry. We think of kindergarten And our first day, Now we've reached the end We are going away. How do you say good-bye To friends who mean so much? Will there be time To sincerely keep in touch? You'll always have the memories Of your school years from day one, Don't think of school as ending — Think a new life has begun. Cindy Kichline, Easton, Pa. 1. Jim and Jeff. 2. Ronny and Trisha 3.

However, because of the efficient manner in which she handled her duties she is now finishing twenty-one years of uninterrupted service as study hall supervisor and attendance clerk. All of us will feel our loss next year without Mrs. Laws who hopes to have more free time for travel and family. She in turn says she will greatly miss the association with staff and students. Marjorie Keeslar is finishing twenty-one years as a cook for the high school cafeteria. In reference to her involvement she said, "I have enjoyed the work. Many changes have taken place, but the students remain their loveable selves, complaining one day and complimenting the next." She is looking forward to having more opportunity for travel, hobbies and family. John Ash spent ten years as a custodian in the Bronson School system following twelve years with Sturgis Public Schools. Having worked the night shift for part of that time, he saw students in their after-school activites and says he will miss them. However, he is looking forward to having more time for his grandchildren, reading and riding his bicycle. We will miss these who have been dedicated to their jobs and wish to express our appreciation for all our hourly employees who quietly and faithfully work in the background 2 . . . this 1984 edition of the VIKING to three of our supportive staff who are retiring this year. �At the Sixth Annual Junior Miss Pageant held in the Tibbits Opera House, Saturday, November 19, 1983, Lorinda Mayer was named Branch County's Junior Miss for 1984. She was selected from 11 contestants, all of whom were seniors in their respective high schools. Each girl was judged on youth fitness; creative and performing arts; and poise and appearance. Loonda was the first girl from outside the Cokf water area ever to have earned the right to represent Branch County in Michigan's 26th Annual Junior Miss Program, staged in the Marshall Middle School auditorium January 21, 1984. Out of 28 contestants Lonnda had the high honor of being named third runner-up. Her performance in the creative and performing arts category was a song and dance routine that she choreographed herself — " A Bushel and a Peck" from the Broadway musical Guys and Dolls. As members of the yearbook staff, we have been pleased to write the above in recognition of Lonnda's achievements as a person and in appreciation for the two years she has served as editor of the 1983 and 1984 Bronson High School Viking.

You help me with my problems, And our joys together we share. I can't imagine life Without a friend like you. Once we get together We are an indivisible two! All the fun I've shared with you Can never be replaced. Together we've had many good times, And conquered the problems we've had to face. So I want you to know That I am always here, If ever you need a friend To make your thoughts clear.

Brian Wrozek Ben Yearling Tammy Yearling The ring of the bell. The shuffle of feet through an almost soundless hallway. The whispers in the stillness, And the quiet, empty feeling that awaits us all. "How can it be?" "Why?" So many questions that we, ourselves, cannot answer. Losing a friend is such a hard thing to accept. So much wanting them back, But, instead, only memories. How we wish we could turn time back. To share the friendship again. If it were only possible. In time we shall accept your absence, But, we will never forget your presence. Memories are seldom lost. . . . The Class of 1987 ��The Class of 1988 First Row: Paula Howe, Shelly A.

Talented and Gifted Participants included: Beth Herman, Kathy Czajkowski, Susan Carpenter, Shelly Geiger, Tim Wotta and Jesse McGuire. What is a talented and/or gifted student? One definition might be as follows: A talented and gifted student is one who does things a little earlier, a little better, a little faster, and usually a little differently from most other students. Whatever definition is chosen we think Beth Herman, Kathy Czajkowski, Susan Carpenter, Shelly Geiger, Tim Wotta, and Jesse McGuire will fit. These students were selected to participate in the T.A.G. Conference at Battle Creek Central High School. For two days they met and shared communication experiences with others of their caliber from Calhoun and Branch County schools. All participants agreed that hearing experts in the fields of communications and working in discussion groups with their peers was a very rewarding and enlightening experience.

I n the opinion o f the advisors Dave Lockwood and Vera Hurd they could have very easily ended in third had they not lost a couple of matches by very narrow margins. The teams took on a new look with monogrammed sweaters provided through an anonomous source. The scores for the second round of play are as follows: Bronson 115 115 110 125 110 155 Opposing Team Olivet 135 Maple Valley 155 Pennfield 120 Springfield 105 Bellevue 120 St. Phillips 90 AJV team, made up of those not quizzing on the varsity squad, saw limited competition because only a few SMAA schools had a second team. 76 Questions for competition included the academic areas of fine arts, literature, science, social studies and mathematics. The following questions are taken from one of the quiz sessions. 1The style most closely connected with Vincent Van Gogh is? 2. The diagonals of a rhombus are 15" and 20" What is its area? 3.

It was a learning year with the underclassmen gaining very valuable experience. The Vikes had trouble getting into the end zone, and had too many turnovers. As a result, they saw the season end with 0 wins and 9 losses. Although it was bit of a discouraging year for the Varsity Vikes each felt that they had gained from their experience and the time, effort and hard work put into shaping their team was all well worthwhile. 78 Varsity Football t �Respectable Season Despite Circumstances First Row: Chris Canbury, Rodney Sgambelluri, Tony Herman, Mike Kimes, Tim Moore, Teyyr Rossell, Jamie Smoker, David Stanley.

They placed tenth in the Regionals. The team consisted of only one senior and the rest were a l l underclassmen which hampered the team due to a lack of experience. Junior, Jeff Case, was selected to the All Conference team for the second straight year. Apromising young golfer, Tom Kehoe, will be sadly missed by his fellow golfers next year.

McGuire finished second and was named to the All-State team. Both McGuire and Cline were made all conference and named team captains. Beth Barrows and Jean Miller were chosen co-captains for the girls. �Varsity Encounters Disappointing Season Unfortunately, the Varsity team suffered a disappointing season, losing 13 games and winning 6 overall. The league record was three wins and 9 losses. Mr Zabonick's most enviable career record now stands at 419 wins and only 186 losses. Several factors contributed to this year's disappointing season including numerous injuries, only three returning players, and team difficulties in functioning as a unit. Coach Zabonick felt that the season might have had a different outcome i f Bronson could have beaten Maple Valley which would have given his players the determination needed to win four or five more games.

The J.V.'s were under the supervision of their coach, Mike Miller, who stated, "I'm really happy with the season; the players worked hard and played excellently as a team." The team's strong point was defense, holding their opponents to an average of 36 points a game, while the Viking offense pumped in an average of 56 points. Perhaps the most spectacular victory for the squad came late in the season when they tromped Three Rivers by 27 points, revenging an earlier loss of 40-41.

Jesse moved from Arkansas last year as a freshman. While attending Bronson High School he has broken school records in Cross Country and Track. This year he placed second at the State Cross Country Meet and first in both the Mile and Two Mile events at the State Track Meet. Much of Jesse's drive and ambition to win, stems from his hope of winning an athletic scholarship so that he may attend college after his senior year. He contributes his running success to some natural ability but the most important factor is prayer. Jesse says that he doesn't practice any more than his teammates but when watching him it is obvious he puts everything he has into each practice.

FffrIl Remember all of your friends, And the fun we must now leave behind, As each of us begin the rest of our lives, Not knowing what we'll find. Remember not mistakes we've made, But what each of us has learned, As we say good-bye for good Walking away with what we've earned. As we go our separate ways To face what the future has in store, Remember all that we made it through As the class of '84. Memories 1 5 9 �Time — that infinite number of seconds, minutes, and hours. The time we have, we take for granted. It is as if we have that infinite amount of hours to do everything we wish to do. And yet our time is numbered, our seconds precious. Every second we waste, is a second gone from our lives forever. And no matter how hard we try, we can do nothing to regain that time that we have lost. Time is that unconquerable thing that no one has the power to begin nor the will to make end. That beautiful thing that we wish we could stop when things are at their best and speed up when things are at their worst. This book holds within it the times spent at B.H.S. and treasures every moment, knowing these times are now in the past and only remain as memories for us to look back upon. But it also conveys a very important message to all . .. Live for every second, enjoy for every minute, and love for every hour, for sand is slowly going through the time-glass of life, and sobn, too soon, the sand will run out. I would like to extend a special Thank-you to my staff for all the continuous hours spent in designing and developing this year's yearbook. The publication of a yearbook takes much time and hard work and without each staffers dedication the completion of the book would not be possible. This completion also requires guidance. The guidance of someone who is willing to offer their time, knowledge and understanding to anyone at anytime. That person is our advisor, Mrs. Vera Hurd. In our eyes she is not only an outstanding advisor but an outstanding individual as well. To my classmates of 1984, I would like to wish you the best in all that you do, and may you find success and happiness in the many roads ahead of you. Lorinda Mayer Yearbook Editor Gathering and organizing the countless candids and endless copy for a 160-page yearbook requires the cooperation and hard work of many people. I am especially indebted to the dedication of our editor, Lorinda Mayer, and all the staff who benefited from her inspiration. Aspecial thank-you goes to all our advertisers, without whom this book could never have been; to Lee Zimmerman of Taylor Publishing Company for the hours of good advice; to Ron Philbrick and Carousel Studio for helping us with our photography; to Ray Smith of the Bronson Journal for pictures and copy; and to the administration, staff and students of Bronson High School who so graciously responded to the innumerable questions, "takes" and "retakes." With deepest gratitude, Vera Hurd, Advisor 160 Memories ����_ • 4', •• - T • • : � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
