And i t came t o pass in the nineteenth hundredth year, the nineth month and the first day that the class of and fourteen heard the sound of the bell and took warning f o r it was their first year of High School and they were to Now these are the names of the children of Union City H i g h School t h a t came i n as Freshmen: R u t h the Brownite; Georgia the Krullite; J.

Now it came to pass that in the days when we were Freshmen that the Seniors began to prey upon us, and certain ones would make a joke of us, but we were not to be thus used as the Seniors soon found. Now there were many obstacles before us, such as Latin and Algebra. But i t came to pass since we feared them not that quered them. There was English, and much trouble was there in ruling this, but the weary English teachers tried hard and so did t h e i r best. There were times of amusement and often at these times did we go into the country i n sleigh loads to the Grange hall and at these times there was much happiness and enjoyment. And it came to pass, while we were thus engaged, that a great sorrow came to us, the sudden death of our classmate, Georgia the Krullite. But before departing from school i t came to pass neyed through the country of the Calhounites, to the Lake of Lee �and remained there a day and were happy. I t came to pass that we again started i n school and that we were Sophomores, during which there were more times of urgent studying, and times of enjoyment as before. And it came to pass that more obstacles arose such and Geometry, but again did we conquer. A t the end of this year, we departed for the land of waterites, and another day of happiness was spent and t h e year was ended well. But, behold, in the t h i r d year when we again d i d come t o school, we found several more followers and they were thus called: Margarite and Marshall Brushardites, Bridgway the Culverite, Bernice the Brattinite. There were many who departed from the field of it came to pass that we remaining ones studied less industriously then before, and t h a t there was much amusement and gatherings in the library. Then, at the end o f this year, when we were Juniors i t was known that a banquet had to be given unto the Seniors forth we began to labor that we might find favor in the them, and that success might be our fortune. We, therefore, labored and though we became weary of the task we were exceedingly glad, for it came to pass that success did come to us and we rejoiced. And, behold, another year had passed, and we again journeyed into the land of the Coldwaterites, the Narrows, and again, fore, spent a day of enjoyment. Behold, when we again did assemble we were Seniors, and it was to be our last year. L o ! all but twenty-two had grown weary by the wayside, and we were left to assume our duties as before. Now, during this year, we found that trouble had at to us in our class and that we did n o t work in harmony, however, right carried the day. It was in this year that we did plan to have an "Annual", the first of this school. B e h o l d ! again our forces were Therefore in the month of June, in the year of our teen hundred and fourteen, we did present the "hoodoo- for the peopl �And i t came to pass at the end o f the school year, nineteen hundred and fourteen, that we did dream that we were presented with a parchment with writing upon it. The interpretation o f t h e w r i t i n g was, t h a t t h e sons and daughters of these tribes of the Unionites were graduates of the Union City High School.

Gladly I went, back to my work and to contentment, Perhaps in some vague, reaching way—you may learn As I have learned—How very sweet is Life And how unworthy the things we long for most. Love at They love: You smile at the phrase, And say you know i t is not true. For youth alone is made f o r love As blushing rose f o r m o r n i n g dew. B u t love: Comes not alone to youth A t early dawn of day, I t comes too, when the shadows fall Across the Border way. And: They who love when silver hairs Have won away the gold, And t r e m b l i n g lips seek for the kiss, And weary arms infold. Love indeed: Undaunted shines w i t h i n the eyes, And i n the heart is perfect rest. Ah! y o u say love at morn is true, B u t I say t w i l i g h t love is best. �Class RUTH A.

Many years ago. long before the white man came to t r y, there dwelt along the banks of a river, now well known in the southern p a r t of Michigan as the St. Joe, a tribe of Indians called the Pottowattamies. A t this time, the r i v e r w a s several t i m e s its p r e s e n t size and the m i g h t y w a t e r s r u s h i n g t h r o u g h t h e t h i c k f o r e s t , did seem like a Great Way—rushing, tumbling, picturesque in ness—to m e e t some v i t a l f o r c e —maybe civilization. N o w m i l l s and powerhouses have been b u i l t on i t s banks and the once proud river f l o w s u n o b t r u s i v e l y along, t h r o u g h t h e m a n y cities which have overtaxed its s t r e n g t h and left i t to ripple softly as though ashamed, lest i t be noticed and commented upon. " G re a t H e a r t " w a s chief o f t h e Pottowattamies. H e h a d a daughter whose h a i r was t h e color o f golden maize, and eyes as deep a n d s t a r r y a s t h e s t a r s i n a m i d s u m m e r s k y. " G r e a t H e a r t " loved his daughter with a passion lacking any control,— b u t he was secretly ashamed t h a t the child of t h e chief of wattamies should resemble no known creature. H e mourned over his degradation, and t h e sight of t h e sunshine mingled w i t h h i s daughter's golden hair made sorrow w i t h i n his heart. The Indian maiden had never k n o w n a mother's love, f o r, on the d a y o f h e r b i r t h , a l s o t h e d a y o f t h e " S u n g o d ' s " v i s i t t o earth, the t i r e d l i t t l e m o t h e r w e n t H o m e —where n o l o n g e r the war c r i e s w o u l d t r o u b l e h e r slumbers. B e f o r e she went ressed h e r b a b y, and, because of h e r g o l d e n h a i r called h e r the " S u n maid". The Indians thought the Sungod had been displeased and had sent to them a creature so u t t e r l y different f r o m anyone they had ever seen. A n d even though t h e y loved t h e maiden d e a r l y, who was so considerate of their comforts, they allowed h e r to grow up, knowing f u l l y t h e i r real feelings and l e a v i n g her to bear h row alone One day in the time of ripened maize, the Sun maid came home from a t r i p i n the f o r e s t and f o u n d a l l confusion w i t h i n wam. T h e chief and his warriors were going on the warpath w i t h a neighboring tribe --All In. T h i s t r i b e w e r e excellent w a r r i o r s and, b y far, outnumbered the Pottowattainies and the Sunmaid's �heart sank for she knew they would nqt be the victors. The next day at sundown she wandered down the river. I t was just sixteen years since her mother had l e f t her. T h e last rays o f sun i n the west shed i t s r o s y l i g h t over the weeping maiden. S u d d e n l y the figure of the tiungod appeared "Listen to me! T h e r e is one way by which you may be saved, and that i s b y t h e tribes uniting. I w i l l cause t h i s t o be brought about if you will r e t u r n with rue to the region of the sun, coming back only once each year in the night to visit your home." The Sunmaid loved h e r father, and knowing that only t h r u her could the unison be brought about, she consented.— B u t pray let me leave some sign t h a t m y father may know where I have gone. S o she went to the region of the sun with the Sungod and every summer there comes a day when the corn is at its ripened stage and the Sungod visits the earth. H e allows the "Sunmaid" just at nightfall to return f o r a brief visit. S o if you should now hear the sound of dancing waters and whispering trees, you may know that it is the Sunmaid back among her own. The day after the disappearance o f t h e Indian maiden, the chief was walking beside the river and he saw a bush on which grew many, many little bleeding hearts,—he knew then that the Sungod had taken his daughter and he would never see her again. But true to the Sungod's promise, the tribes were united and today on the banks of the St. Joe river there is a prospering little town which resulted from the united tribes and i s called b y the inhabitants—Union City. — R . A. B. The Union City was yet naked and leafless, but its sunsets ways beautiful, and t h e rosy glow of the sun is tinging w i t h i t s radiance the whole evening sky. I t is inspiring and soothing to witness the effect of the after-glow, to see the very ing forth in the flashes of gold and crimson, to experience ing of awe stealing over The gold-tipped arrows o f the sunset pierce t h e deepening shadows of the sky and b u r s t into beautiful tints.

A t the first meeting o f the year officers were elected and the class activities year started. T h e r e were four parties listed on the senior social calendar this year. I t is hoped that these pleasant times spent together as a class w i l l not soon be forgotten. D u r i n g the last part of the first semester we decided to put out an annual and so we have been ing on the project ever since. It w i l l be interesting to note that o f the present graduating class five have way together through the twelve grades in Union City High School. Of the graduating class this year better than seventy-five per cent are going institutions of learning. A s we are leaving old U. C. H .

Page �Sophomore History On September 4, 1924, about thirty students began their school l i f e as cers were elected and a great deal o f enjoyment and school spirit has been manifested by the class through the year. Entertainments have always gone hand i n hand w i t h work and so we have found i t fit during the past year to have several class parties at which all work gotten On our social calendar this year were listed five parties o f various nature. 19, a party was held at the home o f Rena Belle Yu n t ; October 31 a t the home o f Harriet Howard; December 19 at the home o f LaVendee A d o l p h ; January 16 at the home trude E l y ; and February 20 a t the home o f Kenneth Lee. A l l o f these parties were w e l l attended and refreshments, f i t f o r a k i n g t o eat, were served. W e hope that hours spent together as a class w i l l not be forgotten soon. Friday, A p r i l 24, a good representation o f Sophs were i n attendance a t the Party sponsored b y the Juniors and held a t the N y e Grange H a l l . O n e o f the features o f our Sophomore year was a debate staged by the t w o Soph English classes on the evening o f March 5 i n the assembly room. T h e question f o r debate was, "Resolved: T h a t the country life is more pleasant and profitable than the city life." T h e affirmative side was uplicld Hooker, Harriet Howard, and Kenneth Dolbee, while the negative side was defended by Eula Kahler, M a r j o r i e Cline, and Horace Crandall. T h e affirmative side w o n t h e directly after the debate refreshments were served. When melancholy rides the sky and fills The distance with her dust o f gloom and doubt, And from despair there seems no gateway out; When the cold blast o f disappointment chills 1he green young buds o f hope and the once rosy hills Stand gaunt, forbidding battlements, too stout For faltering strength to master, ere i t kills Faith in high purpose, turn your face about. Search the great past, the pages that have gone; Pause and reflect by some At Valley Forge once more with Washington, Learn what it means to suffer and be brave. Or stand w i t h patient Lincoln and believe That what is right, its purpose shall achieve. —Edgar Guest Page E i g h t c , n �Sophomore OFFICERS PresidentK Vice-PresidentX E N R Secretary and TreasurerG N J E E O R T R T R H I I LEE E ' D E ELY MEMBERS LaVendee Adolph A l b e r t ma Gauss Edward Adolph L u c i l l e Hanna Victor A l l w a r d t H a r r i e t Howard Lillian Alden E l i Hooker Miriam Blanchard F u l a Kahler Doris Badger ‘ V e e d Kenyon Marjorie Brooks E r v i n Knapp Mable Brown K e n n e t h Lee Neva Carpenter L u c i l l e Lutz Marjorie Cline K a t h e r i n e Neubauer Horace Crandall W i l m a Olmsted Kenneth Dolbee W a l t e r Philo Gertrude E l y M a r i o n Whiting John Flewelling R e n a Belle Yunt Richard Gaw ( * h a r l e s Stafford' l'agr e r i �Freshman Class of The freshman class o f Union H i g h We are, and proud o f it, too, For " W e l l begun is h a l f done", And our colors are grey and blue.

T h e team o f last year is gone w i t h the exception t w o relay men and t w o point winners, leaving almost nothing in experienced men. A l t h o u g h Coach "Doke" McCamly has not yet shown his skill i n building such a team We feel sure that i t w i l l be a winner when completed. It will be hard to find such men as E l y but we hope our boys w i l l come across best. W e feel as long as the boys and girls made such a good showing last year i n bringing home the championship Track and Relay Pennants that they should receive a word here. O u t of a possible 144 points w e took 68. I n the dashes E l y, Case, Teeter, and Thompson took points; in the runs Teeter, Walsworth, and Whitney; in the jumps, E l y, Case, Teeter derson; i n the weights, H i l l . T h e relay team composed o f Walsworth, Teeter, Anderson, and Whitney; and the basketball throw Thompson and Spencer. Out o f the group Whitney, Anderson, Davison, and Spencer remain f o r this year's work. Our hopes f o r this year are in such men as Eggleston, Lee and Lynn Bartlett, ison, Gaw, 'Whitney, Hagerman, and the possibilities o f finds. The only meet w i l l be with the county association at Davis Field held on M a y 23. T h i s association consists o f Quincy, Bronson, Sherwood, and Union City, and i s played under the M. I . A .

P r e v i o u s t o 1917, however, f o r a generation other activities and a crowded curriculum had forced out a l l agencies which train students in oral expression until i t seemed that pupils, like little children, were to be seen and not heard. I n the past eight years there has been an increasing interest shown in the high schools o f this state in public speaking until now, i n the larger partments of speech are being introduced. T h e practical value o f the same needs no argument. Union City H i g h School entered the State H i g h School Debating League i n 1923 and i n the past t w o years has w o n one-half o f i t s debates each year. A n increasing interest has been shown this year and i t is hoped that the time w i l l come when proper instruction in public speaking can be offered in Union City H i g h School. 1923 - 1924 U. C.

W e are gaged in a great strife f o r that Knowledge; testing whether that class o r any other class, so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. W e have come t o dedicate a portion o f o u r lives as the final step toward the achievement o f I t is all together f i t t i n g and proper that we should do this; b u t i n a larger sense not dedicate, we can not concentrate, w e can n o t absorb t h a t knowledge. O u r decessors living and dead have encompassed i t f a r above o u r poor power t o add o r detract. This school w i l l l i t t l e note, n o r long remember what I say here; b u t i t w i l l never forget what they d i d here. I t is f o r us now as Juniors, t o dedicate the remaining portion o f o u r school l i f e to the great task remaining before us. But before we take up this great undertaking, let us pause f o r a moment and recall •onie of the more pleasing o f our experiences o f the past two and one half years since we entered t hi, school as Freshmen. C A N TO F I R S T I t was on a balmy M a y morning about the f o u r t h day o f September i n the year o f our Lord 1923, that about thirty pupils entered these portals and were thereby declared Freshmen. Thereafter f o r f o u r long years t o he p u t t o work a t hard mental labor, on a diet o f History. Algebra, and English, with either L a t i n o r General Science as a dessert. A t least there were the orders we received t o be carried o u t the I w i l l n o t t r y here t o describe the trials and troubles o f that year b u t w i l l endeavor t o bring t o l i g h t the more pleasing incidents. Sometime about the twentieth o f t h a t same September, as I remember, a class meeting was called and the class officers were elected. T h e y were: President, Richard President, Wa l t e r Philo; Secretary and Treasurer, Eula Kidder. Having this o f f our minds we decided t o indulge in a few revelries i n the f o r m o f class parties. W e therefore appointed the following as victims o f our choice: L a Vendee Adolph, Marjorie Cline, L u c i l l e H a n n a , a n d M a l i k . B r o w n . P a r t i e s were accordingly h e l d a t t h e respective homes o f these pupils and some very good and well-to-be-remembered times ensued. In athletics, as i n many Freshmen classes, not much was accomplished. O n e o r t w o o f the fellows succeeded i n making the scrub teams b u t i n general there was n o t much enacted in t h i s time. There were few pupils who dropped o u t o f the class during the Freshmen year dicated the high average o f the class as a whole. So ended o u r Freshmen year with nearly the same t h i r t y pupils t h a t the preceding f a l l had ushered into old U . C. H . S., now graduating into f u l l fledged Sophomores when they would again enter the wide portals o f the Birthplace o f Knowledge. C A N TO S E C O N D This time i t was a wintry December day about the second o f September, that i n the near vicinity o f t h i r t y pupils again marched u p t h e great stone steps which lead t o the door o f Eternal Knowledge. This year as before we gathered together to select the leaders f o r the term. T h e y were: Pre:ident, Kenneth I.ee; Vice-President, Nlarjorie Brooks; Secretary and Treasurer, Gertrude Fly Having had such good l u c k w i t h t h e festivities o f the preceding year, we planned a n rqually active time f o r this year. A c c o r d i n g l y, parties o f a very enjoyable nature were held at the homes o f the following: Rena Belle Yu n t , H a r r i e t Howard, LaVendee trude E l y, and Kenneth Lee; also a school p a r t y a t the Nye Grange H a l l sponsored iors. A n o t h e r special was the debate between the t w o English classes. Q u e s t i o n : "Resolved that country life is more pleasant and profitable than city life." T h e affirmative off the honors. Refreshments were afterwards served and a j o l l y time enjoyed b y all. Several pupils were forced f o r various reasons t o leave school d u r i n g the year, though they were greatly missed by their classmates, the class was kept moving ly towards i t s destination. Athletics began t o pick u p this year. I n football, letters were won b y Hooker, Crandall, Kenyon, and Dolbee and i n baseball b y Hooker, Crandall, Kenyon, Dolhee, Philo, and Lee. With the closing of the baseball season came the much-looked forward-to ly the same "bunch" as the f a l l before had entered as Sophomores, was now "turned loose" to be "gathered i n " the next f a l l as real honest-to-goodness Juniors.

One night when the drivers were gathered about the campfire we d u i . , 'cifLong .alias Shorty, was elected camp president; Dale Swain, vice-presid i i : W o r d r n . secretary and treasurer. Every month the Fords were given the once over b y the mechanics we brought w i t h us. Sometimes they proved sound; sometimes they d i d n o t . One night we halted at the Community Grange H a l l and enjoyed a Hallowe'en p a r t y, our guide and mechanic, Miss Butzer, attending. C i d e r a n d doughnuts were served ments One day Glen Baylis mired his Ford so deep in the mud that we were forced t o go on w i t out him. November 18th, after halting f o r the night, Eva Robinson hailed the other drivers and by the flames o f her crackling campfire had our second party, with a picnic supper. and Miss Sheldon dropped their tools long enough t o come also. Next came Christmas a n d t h e severe semi-final engine t e s t f o r the rallied a t the call o f our guide t o continue our journey we discovered that a new F o r d driven by Mabel Smith had joined us. Two weeks later the Fords o f Letha M a u r e r and Neuma Reneh collided o n a mountmiii pass. W e pitched the wreckage over the c l i f f and l e f t i t there. The 14th o f February Mabel Smith invited her fellow travelers into her camp f o r a V i i entine p a r t y. Refreshments were ,jello and wafers. A l l t h e mechanics were cleaning spark plugs and could n o t come. Carl Washburn's car was lost in quicksand one day when we attempted t o ford a river. In the f i r s t o f March we pulled w i t h another p a r t y on the second l a p o f a ney long enough to give a mock wedding at the Methodist church. L u c i l l e Hannah, a stranger. was picked to be groom and I r m a Brunson, one o f our own drivers, as bride, while our guide tied the knot. Then came the eatastroohe o f David and Lucille Moore. B a n d i t s held them up, ran o f f with their Fords and forced them t o go home broke. Next, Gerald Worden drove his car over an embankment and fell into the river. On A p r i l 5th we came t o an o l d f a r m house which we recognized as an ideal place f o r another party. Refreshments were popcorn and candy. M i s s Sheldon, Miss Butzer, and Miss Steele, a l l mechanics attended t o f r i g h t e n t h e ghosts away. In May a track m e e t was held near us and we entered two athletes, Margaret Smith and Rowene Dennison. Last came the final engine test f o r the Fords after which we were given a rest months. W e spent the time in the same camp on the banks o f the River o f Life. September 8 t h we f i l l e d t a n k a n d radiator and stood ready f o r t h e second l a p journey. M i s s Butzer. former mechanic, was chosen as road guide this time. O u r ficers were: Richard Weeks, president; Margaret Glew, vice-president; A r t h u r tary and treasurer. There were b u t thirty-six o f us now. L o o k i n g around u s w e saw t h a t s i x F o r d s were missing whose owners were Thomas Clark, Maurice Crandall, 'Winnifred Bell, bury, Lewis K a t z , and L o l a Dibble.

With the aid o f our guide we picked. two casts o f characters and presented t w o acts o f "The Merchant o f Venice." T h e best cast was given a party a t the Community Grange H a l l . Refreshments proved t o be rather scarce—a few sandwiches and a can o f beans. The F o r d driven Icy L o i s James suffered a punctured tire and we left her by the road trying t o With this incident the second l a p o f our journey is over and we are looking forward t o the third, our hearts singing the song o f the road t o the tune o f maiquito: in the Everglades.

Debatin Interest i n debate a n d o r a t o r y i n t h e schools o f :11ichigan increases year by year a. shown by the increasing number o f schools taking part and also the larger attendance a t t h t final debate at Ann Arbor. I n some o f the smaller places which succeeded in entering finals, spirit ran high and teams were accompanied t o distant forums by ers. T h i s is a healthy symptom; as, in the writer's opinion, n ) other extra-cu rrieular aetivit) yields greater dividends t o the participant. Union City was somewhat handicapped in debating this year due t o keen competition and the fact that new teams had t o be developed f r o m inexperienced nwinhers. A s a result, oar teams were n o t quite as successful a s i n f o r m e r years, although they were better t r a i n thanks to Miss Nelthorpe. O u r debate schedule follows: U. U. U. U. Page C. C.

Bell, Class of 1894 at the Alumni reunion held June 20, 1924.) "Speeditis" is what ails the " D E A R G E N E R A L P U B L I C " when the D . G . P. doesn't know W H A T ails it. I t is the disease that causes the public to rush madly from the plact where it I S to the place where it A I N ' T, in search of that which i t thinks i t wants, but which it soon wishes to blazes it didn't have. I t is that which explains why the Dear General Public went courting day before yesterday, got married yesterday, and got a divorce today. Speeditis is the B I G U N R E S T which has attacked our "body politic", and which pression in symptoms which are many and various. In the treatment o f this disease, numerous remedies have been tried; but—as the learned Doctors would say—"the speeditis hug has not been definitely isolated as yet, and ment o f this obscure malady is still in the experimental stage." A f e w years ago the dentists and M . D.'s called a council o f Doctors. T h e y examined the patient, took an X - r a y photograph, and ordered that the Public's teeth should be pulled. One kind old lady who had not yet heard this decision, went to her family doctor for advice. After the preliminaries were over, the doctor said: "Well, Auntie, your symptoms are very pronounced; the F I R S T thing to he done is to remove all your teeth." " V e r y well, Doctor," replied Auntie, handing him both upper and lower plates, "here they be; now what's N E X T ? " Soon events proved that not all the ills to which human flesh is heir were due tooth sockets and diseased tonsils. I n the course o f time, a full-fledged epidemic dicitis appeared, and now the aforesaid General Public rushed with all speed to the operating table to have its appendix removed. S o o n thereafter, the ladies o f our Sewing Circles and Wednesday Clubs were bringing their "appendices" t o the club meetings i n bottles f o r the purposes o f comparison and differentiation. But still, the abnormal symptoms persisted; the Public's pulse was still rapid; so other remedies must be tried out. A n d so i t came t o pass that our vertebrae were yanked into place, and our spinal columns stiffened up a b i t ; the f a t were taught to "reduce to music", the lean were taught t o "fletcherize," and our yeast factories were forced t o to supply the demand f o r vitamines. But alas, alas, the Psycho-analysts began t o work on the problem. T h e y soon made i t plain (to themselves) that what ailed the General Public was not organic disease. T h e trouble was in our "think tanks." W h a t we ne:Aed was amusement, diversion, recreation, and tinual series of new sen,ations and thrills. S o our dance halls were put on the 24ule, our vaudevilles, theatres and movies were pressed into the service; and thrills were hand. ed t o the Patient until he yelled f o r shock absorbers. Then when nerves were on the ragged edge, and lines o f dissipation began to appear, the B E A U T Y n o c r o n s undertook t o save our women folk. " W h a t you need," said they, "is dress reform and some skillful camouflage. D i s c a r d your corsets, shorten your the sleeves from your gowns, build your blouses with a B A C K exposure; paint up ('Save the surface, and you save a l l ' ) ; take that schoolgirl complexion with you wherever you go, and whenever you chance to be in a public place, dab your noie, and rouge up. C u t off your hair. and pull out your eyebrows; buy yourselves some cigarettes, connect with some trustworth bootlegger, grab a walking stick, and- 1 ) a l l means—learn to spit through your teeth." But—by the S H A DES I M NIORTAL— it seems that the B E A U T Y DOCTOR overdid it Nlere man i beginning to wonder "%V Il.%T N E X T " ? I t may be necessary t o call upon tb•• present Congress to " I N V E s Ti G AT E " this situation. . % thorough " P R O B E " by that august body might result i n the isolation o f the speeditis bug. A n d then—if President Coolidgc -houldn't veto it—it would lie up to the World Court to take action on it.

D o you remember how Mr. McCamly could hardly p u t u p w i t h you two? O h t h a t reminds me, R u t h was Vi c e President o f o u r Freshmen class, Secretary a n d Treasurer o f o u r Sophomore class, and Treasurer the t h i r d year. Helen: This Daisy is f o r Eunice who entered i n the sixth grade. O t t o and F r e d Smith joined us next, so I have planted a bittersweet f o r O t t o and a Dandelion f o r Fred. as I thought it suited them best. Irene: I believe O t t o was E d i t o r -in-Chief o f o u r Les Nlemoires wasn't he? W e had lots o f trouble publishing that Annual didn't we? B u t i t was fine when completed. and Marguerite come t o us j u s t a fter that? Helen: Yes, and I have planted a violet and L i l y - o f -the-Valley f o r them. T h e s e t w o flowers are so shy and sweet. D o n ' t you remember that sales campaign and party at Marguerite's? Irene: Yes, didn't we have a wonderful time? Z e n a was rr-xt, you must have planted a Ti g e r L i l y f o r her, you know i t would be such a p r e t t y match f o r her hair, and Helen: Yes, that is exactly what I planted. (Sigh.) N o w here we are t o o u r Freshman year, there were several o f us entered a t that time. I ' m going t o make one b i g garden year. W h o shall w e begin w i t h ? Irene: Oh, let's begin with Gula, she was Valedirtorian o f our dais, because o f t h a t we ought to plant a Star of Bethlehem f o r her. S h e was always one o f the kind that you could not flatter. S h e was Vice -President o f our Senior year and Secretary o f our Junior Helen: I know what we'll do, we'll plant a Tu l i p f o r A r t h u r and Elvetta M y ! that romance grew u p very suddenly in our Senior year. T h e y were a fine pair, weren't they? always thought so much of them, too. Irene: Yes, and i f E l v e t t a wanted h i m t a , he would t a k e the whole school t o so-ial a ff a i r s Take f o r instan:1- t h e ball game a t Quincy. ( t h i n k . ) Suppose we p l a n t a B l u e -Bell bp! Willard A d o l p h i n honor o f Rena Belle, we'll p l a n t i t r i g h t here beside A r t h u r vetta. T h e r e , that's fine. Helen: Then Gerald who was President of our Junior and Senior years. I l e was the all around Athlete o f the county i n both his Junior and Senior years. L e t me see! Didn't he have a nickname? Irene: Yes, Rev. Helen: Then why n o t plant a Jark-in-the-Pulpit for him? V i r g i n i a M i l l e r entered t h a t year too, d i d n ' t she? Irene: Yes, and I believe a Lady Slipper would he appropriate for her. I wonder i f she is a stage dancer by this time? Yo u know that was her ambition. (Sigh.) . A s I was walking through reminded me o f Lillian, why n o t p l a n t t h a t the fields t h e other day I saw a for her? Page Porly-on' �Helen: Yes! and wasn't she one of George Gaw's specials? I had decided t o plant Box flower for him and Rex. T h e y always did their bit toward entertaining bors Irene: Do you remember how reserved Vesta Mae used to be? B u t we all liked her. W e will plant an Aster for her. ( ) m a r was sort of sedate too, he put in my memory book that his utmo,t desire was to be a minister, so I think that an Elder Berry would be best. Helen: Wilbur, the "sheik" o f our class, was the one who took Rov.,ene Dennison from Omar. (Sigh.) H e was much noted f o r his ability along such lines. W e ' l l plant Honeysuckle for him, they're so sweet you know. E v e r e t t and Wayne were the ILIA hut not least to enter with us in the Freshmen year. T h e only thing I can think of that would be suitable is a Bachelor Button. Irene (Wandering over to the bench and sitting down): Where did we have our Wasn't i t a t Everett's? ( T h i n k i n g . ) N o , i t was a t I ' . S. Robinson's and we all had a good time, as f a r as I can remember, and then the next one was a sleigh ride party, I believ Helen: Yes, and there was one a t the Methodist church. G e o r g e G a w was President that year, and Ruth was Vice-President, then LaMoin was Secretary and Treasurer, dropped into Matrimony. J o h n Wedel a n d Louise O'Dell entered w i t h us, and they rushed on ahead, so graduated with the class o f '25. Irene: Now we come to the Sophomore year, but I don't think that we had any additions or subtractions. D o you? I believe Louise was President and Vivian Vice-President. Louise had a party, but I don't know much about it because I wasn't there, neither do ber about LaMoin's. ( T h i n k . ) I t was i n the year 1924 that Vivian left us wasn't it? Then she went t o Battle Creek Business College. Helen: Oh, yes! and at the end of the year we had a picnic a t Maddison Lake. I t was a very cold day but we had a nice time. I ' m sure that they were all the interesting events o f our Sophomore year. T h e n our Junior year was most eventful. B u t say, (getting up), we had better get to work. Y o u know we have not planted flowers f o r the united with us then. Seems to me Katherine came from Missouri to us. What about a Wake Robin f o r her, she was always so cheerful. Irene: Then George Gourley came from Indiana, we'll plant a Cowslip f o r him because we knew he would turn into a prosperous farmer and dairyman. N o w comes the Burlington couple. I believe Marjorie was one of them, I think a Wind Flower would be best suited to her. S h e was Valedictorian of her class at Burlington, and why not a ton for Leo, he had Helen (both sitting down): Don't you remember the good times we had in our Junior year? We had a good time at your party didn't we? B u t we had the best time of all practicing our Junior play. I t was hard work practicing night after night hut I believe we all had some very enjoyable evenings. W a s n ' t that a wonderful play, the name o f i t was gaged by Wednesday." I believe the best character i n i t was Martin Henry, Lawrenec Ohnstead, the laziest man i n the country. Irene: Yes, yes, i t was all very nice hut we must hasten, as we have Marie and Nina yet to plant Helen: Oh! that's right. Irene: I see just one place to put them, and that's right over in the corner. W e ' l l add clover, They were so unobtrusive. N o w our Senior year is finished. T h e r e ! that's the garden is all planted. A r t h u r had a party didn't he? A n d Elvetta acted We all had a very good time though. in spite of the rainy weather. W e l l ! I must ing, it is getting late, and must be almost dinner time too. Helen: Well! I am so glad you came in to help me, or I don't know when I would have got the flowers planted. Irene: I hope the garden grows nicely. Good bye. Helen: Yes, I must go in the house. Good bye. Fini !iv Fort y- �Class (aeoroe ( t o r o w l l I i i , , R a l s t o n ) Time- 2 : 0 0 A . 11.-1933.

Oratio The H y p h e n a t e d C i t i z e n (By Bush Moore) There is i n America a national impulse called .‘merieanization b u t i t acquired alization hefore i t had become specifie. I t was subjected t o organization a n d the achievement o f results before i t was a branch o f knowledge f a i r l y evolved and reduced to practice. I t has been the d u t y o f these Americans to f i n d a way b y which a l l on one soil, under one f o r m o f government w i t h n o territorial lines. can be assimilated a n d become a p a r t o f her integral national life. T h i s was thought simple a t f i r s t f o r i f talk a common language unity was assured and i f a l l were citizens under one f l a g could separate them. B u t when t h e w a r came w e found alien enemies i n s p i r i t among the American born, we also found old stirrings in the hearts o f men t o take p a r t i n the struggle; not as true Americans but as Hyphenated-citizens that were ft detriment t o the welfare o f any flat This was found more than t r u e when a naturalized citizen was lamenting the f a c t t h a t •110111(1 I t a l y j o i n the w a r i t wmild be necessary f o r him t o leave, f o r he declared t h a t " I t a l y never gives u p her children." T h r o u g h investigation i t was discovered t h a t natives o f I t a l y were subject t o m i l i t a r y service between t h e ages o f eighteen a n d thirty-nine and natural ization i n a foreign country without the formal consent o f the Italian government D O E S N M . interfere with the neeessity o f service and neither does i t end their Italian citizenship. An I t a l i a n -horn naturalized citizen i s n o t alone i n having t w o allegiances w i t h t h e one to his native country holding f i r s t . T h e r e is n o treaty on t h e subject o f tween O w I ' n i t e d States a n d Greece. Rumania, Poland, Netherlands o r France, b u t t h e French immigration is too small t o he o f much importance Neither i s there a n y naturalization t r e a t y between flue U n i t e d States and A Swiss who becomes an ‘nnurican citizen. lout whose renunciation o f his native not been accepted leaves t o his descendants unto the t h i r d and f o u r t h generation a Swiss Cif izenship which holds precedence over t h e American citizenship acquired b y b i r t h . T h e r e i s no t r e a t y between t h e U n i t e d States a n d Russia: i n f a c t . Secretary H u g h e s declared n o Peg, Forty-nine �treaty is possible w i t h t h a t country so long as i t sends us propagandists whose ject is the overthrow o f the American f o r m o f government; and y e t we continue ize Russians. N o t r e a t y exists between o u r country a n d Germany. U n d e r t h e Tr e a t y o f Versailles, Germany undertakes t o recognize any new nationality which has been o r may Ite acquired b y h e r nationals and t o regard such persons as having severed t h e i r allegiance t o their native country b u t the United States was not one o f the signatory powers. In a l l notices t o citizens o f foreign b i r t h returning t o the country o f their nativity the State Department tacitly admits that the American Government is powerless t o protect such citizens f r o m punishment i n the countries they have formerly renounced. Thus i t is t h a t a naturalized citizen born i n a country w i t h which we have ation treaty i s not a citizen. Why does the United States then, as a nation, insist o r coerce the immigrants t o accept a citizenship which cannot protect them? Large employers i n Pennsylvania and other states as well, specify in their advertisement, for workmen t h a t no unnaturalized citizens need apply. Politicians who want ignorant and cheap votes, round u p the unnaturalized citizens ano rush them through the naturalization courts so as t o obtain t h e i r votes w i t h n o thought o f American citizenship. T h u s have o u r hyphenated-citizens been made w i t h no thought fare t o the country but what the country can give them in mere dollars. The American melting pot, i f there was one, has become a saturated solution f u l l soluble lumps. I n large cities, there are Polish settlements which have their own duct church services i n t h e i r own tongue and l i v e quite a p a r t f r o m American thought and happenings. O n e Polish lump made this statement. " P o l e s we are and Poles this generation will remain. Y o u cannot Americanize the f i r s t generation o f immigrants. T h e y get t h e i r traditions n o r change their language. T h e second generation has n o country, boys grow u p lawless. despising their ignorant parents but with no more conception o f ica really stands f o r than t h e i r parents have. F r o m this class comes t h e m a j o r i t y o f o u r youthful bandits and desperados. T h e t h i r d generation m a y produce good citizens through the agency o f the public school b u t much depends upon the intelligence o f the grandparents and the environment o f the grandson." Another effect o f the de-Americanizing process a t work i n this country is visible in o u r changing f o r m o f government. W e were a representative democracy. W e a r e becoming a pure democracy. The aspirations o f the men o f 1776 were satisfied w i t h the assurance o f life, the pursuit o f happiness. I t was l e f t t o later generations t o discover that happiness can be pursued only through the ballot box. A radical restriction o f immigrants is the f i r s t p a r t o f the curative prescription restoration o f the body politic t o health requires in addition, the drastic remedy o f a greatly restricted naturalization. N o immigrants from a country with whom we have no treaty should be permitted t o become a voting citizen and every immigrant f r o m a n y country should b e required t o show wherein he has been o f actual service t o this country before being granted the boon o f citizenship. No other country coerces alien residents t o become citizens. T h o u s a n d s o f American, spend their lives i n England, France, I t a l y, China, Japan, and no attempt is made t o divert their allegiance from the nited States. A man who desires t o be a British subject must shou very good and sufficient reasons f o r his desire t o renounce his The man who is n o t able t o write n o r read his own ballot is found t o depend upon the honor o f the watcher a t the polls who gives assistance. B y requiring a n ification f o r the franchise will no doubt help There is but one real way t o Americanize and that is f o r every American t o understand the ideals of America and be able to interpret them in every act o f his daily life. I n the future American ideals have to be both more exalted and more practical than in the past. W h e n all Americans both born and naturalized begin t o live u p t o common ideals, then and then only, will the hyphenated citizen o f America cease t o exist. Tope F i f y �President's (lierahl Darixan) As we step out into the world tonight t o take o u r places and t o make o u r f u t u r e cess we must pause a moment and con ider the benefits derived f r o m a good school ficient instructors.

To start the year o f f right a full staff o f officers were elected. T h e y Eli Hooker; V i c e -President, Horace Crandall; Secretary, E u l a Kahler; Treasurer, Wi l m a Olmstead. S o r r y t o say our genial President was forced t o drop school a few weeks after his election and the Vice-President was left in charge. Although he later returned he did not claim his Royal Office. Through some mistake o f the officers in charge o f the Social Calendar for the few parties have been held. T h e r e has been only one to date, and that a t Marjorie Cline's on the same night o f the fire a t Athens when the school house was partly Although the parties have been scarce a very busy time was reported by all the Juniors. The Junior play, "When the Clock Strikes Twelve," w a i given March 25-26 with only three weeks of practice. A n d I f o r one, will vouch for the business o f As yet only two Juniors have dropped school and by good luck they have been permitted to return. In athletics this year the Juniors played their part very creditably indeed. I n football, Crandall, Hooker, Dolbee, Lee, and Kenyon received their letters and in baseball, Crandall, Hooker, Lee, Kenyon, and Philo have promised to "pluck" theirs again. Although i t is getting harder to keep up with all the activities o f a peppy Junior cla,, like ours, most of the class is making the grade very well. I f they continue the remainder of the year as they are doing now they will make a fine showing for a Senior class CANTO F O U R T H Canto fourth o f this History o f the class o f twenty-seven will not be presented i n this issue of Les Memoires, but will have to wait until another year has passed, in which we hope to prove our ability t o cop successfully with the dangers that are constantly threatening the life o f a Senior. In closing we wish t o express o u r appreciation o f the work which the SeWor class o f twenty-six has so successfully executed i n the preparation o f another volume o f oires, and that this issue of l,es Memoires will "go across" as successfully as the did Just-a-Mere Junior.

The name o f Glen Baylis is missed from o u r roll, And now we are minus one really good soul. A party was held at Miss Robinson's "Post." We'll speak f o r ourselves, w e enjoyed i t a t most.

Bashful C a r l Washburn has l e f t us, we sec, We're sorry, but learned that it just had to be. We had a mock wedding, with I r m a as bride. And who d o you t h i n k was t h e man b y h e r side?

W h y don't they come back? Our class roll seems empty with such a great lack. We had a party way out on a farm. Three teachers went with us to keep us from harm.

Page Thirly-nin,' �Valedictory 1 Fula Kohler 1 We who stand tonight a t the meeting between a happy past and a n unknown future, have reached not the end, b u t the Commencement o f o u r lives, and w h a t those lives are to be depends i n a large measure upon the foundations w e have been building f o r them. We are beginning now t o think seriously o f these foundations. W e know t h a t i n a l l o u r school years w e have been unconsciously imbibing t h e principles, t h e initials, t h a t t h e name o f o u r dear old school signify. W e now realize t h a t U has stood f o r unity. C f o r courage. H f o r honor, and S f o r service. T h e s e f o u r qualities a r e essential i n mation o f character. I f we remember them in our coming l i f e we can make o u r education worth while. 1 1 1 1 T h e first quality, unity, has been necessary all through our high school life. i f o u n d the necessity o f it with our classmates, with the teachers, and w i t h the school board. I S o i t w i l l be i n after-life. M a s t e r m i n d s may have great ideas, but they can not p u t them 1 i n t o e ff e c t w i t h o u t co-operation o r u n i t y.

W e must have a goal and keep that goal b u t oftentimes i n o u r strife toward this end obstacles w i l l arise that w i l l take courage t o c o m b a t . Sometimes these obstacles w i l l be too great to be overcome. T h e n w i l l come the n e e d f o r real courage t o bear t h e obstacles t h a t prevail.

Real l i f e lies in service, in being o f some use in the world, in making other people happier 1 a n d better by o u r presence among them. S e r v i c e and honor were Lincoln's ciples o f life. W e can not all be Lincolns, but we can all accept his principles. 1 1 i 4 Page Forty �-1 We w i l l f i n d j u s t as these working principles have carried u s through o u r life, they w i l l carry u s through o u r future l i f e , b u t more than that they w i l l very principles o f o u r government because a nation i s a f t e r a l l t h e s u m o f i t s individual citizens.

F r o m now on o u r paths lead i n different directions. W e must say farewell to our teachers, our friends yet in school, to each other, and even t o o u r parents.

We are leaving o u r old schoolroom, Grown s o dear w i t h passing years, Leaving, too, o u r friends and schoolmates. Memories bringing smiles a n d tears. We w i l l ever miss o u r teachers. Who have labored f o r our good, We have often t r i e d their patience, But perhaps t h e y understood. We w i l l take our motto with us As into the world we go Unity, courage, honor, service, Worthy weapons 'gainst the foe. A f r i e n d indeed is M r. Foster, Who has helped us a l l w i t h care. And his aid in all o u r efforts Has always been beyond compare. Unity w i l l make us loyal In each place our lot is cast, And, whatever m a y b e f a l l us. We'll be faithful to the last. For many years he's been the beacon Which h a s lighted o u r troubled sea. .Many classes has he aided With his help and sympathy. But life t o r him holds something better, So h e leaves u s a l l tonight To become a n a i d t o others And t o guide t h e i r steps aright. In t h e long, long years before us Should w e need a guiding hand, We shall wish f o r o u r Miss Sheldon Who w e know would understand. Courage i s a v i r t u e taught us. By its use we shall be strong. Daring, doing, never fearing, ,4s through l i f e w e g o along. Honor means we shall be upright, Stooping not to small and mean. Being open, honest, virile, Fighting a l l l i f e ' s battles clean. Service w e have been receiving And, to follow nature's plan, It is now our turn t o render Service to our fellow man.

C l a s s m a t e s have a memory o f t h e same events a n d a l i k e mode o f thinking. Doubtless t h i s f a c t accounts f o r t h e s t r o n g appeal a n a l u m n i association h a s f o r i t s members as the years lengthen between the present and the date o f their graduation. The A l u m n i Association o f the Union C i t y H i g h School i s unique i n the hold i t has upon the majority o f past graduates. N o school o f our size has a better ization. For a t least f o r t y years, and probably before that time, reunions o f the graduates o f our school have been held, t h e f i r s t recorded mention o f such a n a f f a i r having gathering at Blanchard's restaurant i n 1887, when officers were elected and a and by-laws adopted. T h i s restaurant did business i n the building now occupied b y t h e Disbro Cream Station. For several y e a r s a f t e r this, meetings w e r e h e l d a t t h e school building, w i t h t h e program i n the chapel, as the present assembly r o o m was then called. Refreshments o f ice cream and cake were served, the girls o f the association making the cake and the boys freezing the home made cream. This custom seems t o have been continued u n t i l 1892, w h e n t h e opera house w a s rented f o r the reunion. P r o b a b l y the refreshments and program, a t first, w e r e same as before, w i t h dues a t twenty-five cents, b u t t h e growing association more convenient place o f meeting than t h e o l d school h a l l w i t h i t s stationary recitation seats Through these years a t the opera house a f a i t h f u l group o f the local a l u m n i stood loyally by to make each reunion a success. T h e y decorated w i t h house plants, ferns f r o m the woods and class colors. T h e y made the place home-like with borrowed rugs, furniture, and screens. T h e y toiled to get together dishes and silver. T h e y baked cakes, wiches and salads, until weary f r o m much hard w o r k and alarmed b y a depleted treasury, they sought variety and a sharing o f responsibility b y a picnic held i n Clark's grove i n 1896, when histories o f the classes were read and reminiscences o f school days enjoyed. In 1897 the f i r s t f o r m a l banquet was held a t Brown's Hotel. T h e old once t h e scene o f much activity, s t i l l stands o n t h e south bank o f the St. Joe. I n 1900 and 1901 banquets were held i n the Union Hotel, b u t the association had grown t o such proportions that neither hotel could seat all the guests at one time, so the next year there was a return to the opera house, with this difference, that the catering was done by different individuals o r church societies, and dues were raised t o f i f t y cents. F o r eight was the regular program, interrupted b u t once, the occasion then being Union City's f i r s t Home Coming i n August, 1909, when the A l u m n i gathering was held i n connection w i t h "School D a y " ; and, as in earlier years, at the school hall. In 1909 the Congregational church increased its social equipment by the addition o f a gymnasium. H e r e i n 1910 and 1911 t h e banquet was served by the Priscillas. A b o u t this time the M. E. church had completed their basement dining room, so in 1912 and also 1913, the Ladies' A i d provided entertainment f o r t h e reunion. S i n c e then w e have relied o n the hospitality o f the churches t o take care o f o u r needs, t h i s program being varied b y a big home coming picnic held i n Monument Park i n 1914 and a banquet i n the Maccabee hall i n 1920. D u e s were raised i n 1910 t o seventy-five cents, i n w a r time t o In spite o f this increase i n dues, the cost o f printing and o f the banquet have f o r some time exceeded the receipts until last year the surplus i n the treasury, acquired a t the time of the picnic i n 1914, was i n danger o f vanishing entirely. I t was then that some o f the stand-by's p u t t h e i r w i t s t o w o r k and devised a n I n d i a n p o w w o w a t t h e opera house. where refreshments prepared b y the local alumni were served cafeteria style w i t h service reduced to the minimum. T h e novelty o f the invitations and the a i r o f mystery about the affair brought a record attendance. Experience has shown u s that no organization backed b y such loyal supporters i s i n danger o f failure. T h e future o f the Union C i t y A l u m n i i s safe i f the spirit o f the past can have a rebirth i n each succeeding generation.

They are fourteen i n number and consequently take up a considerable space. B u t we feel assured that our readers will agree with us in saying that the space i s well occupied.

RIN-N-G!—Hello, hello! yes, yes, this is the M K G studio, New Yo r k —She can't come! W h a t do you think we will do for an accompanist? T h i s is to be an unusual program and has been highly advertised N o , we can't wait for her; we've got t o start on time! W h o ? A Miss Alling-ton? Y o u say she is a real musician? A l l right, hurry up and get her here. O n l y ten more minutes before we begin. " C l i c k . " 1 "Hey, boss, did you say a Miss Allington would come instead? N o w isn't that funny! T h e r e was a Miss Allington—Margaret I believe—in my class at Union City High School. S h e used to play the piano quite a bit; I wonder i f i t could be she." Those ten minutes went by swiftly but Miss Allington arrived on time. I n fact, she entered the door to the studio just before the violinist did. W h e n she realized that some one was behind her she turned around. " W h y , Mary Ellen Gaw!" " O h Margaret, I ' m so glad t o see you. I was ling o f - I "Order! I t is now 9:50. N o more noise!" P l i n k , ring, click. "This is station M K G , New York City. W e are now about to broadcast a program of violin music.

J. Eisen helmet, played by Miss Mary Ellen Gaw; Miss Margaret Allington at the piano." 1 Perhaps i t is needless to say that the program was indeed a success. W h e n their part of tainment had been completed, Miss Gaw and Miss Allington had dinner at the Ritz. T h e y spent an enjoyable evening as one could tell from their conversation. which I will endeavor to repeat. ! "Mary, the first thing that came to my mind when I saw you, was the good times we we were classmates in Union City H i g h School." "You know, that was the first thing I thought o f too! T h o s e were the days! Remember the day back in 1926. E v e r y one laughed at us country kids because we were so a‘skward and i O.course we were called 'Green-hornse' as all Freshmen are." "Our officers were—why Margaret. you were President that year and Helen Howard was Treasurer "And y o u were Secretary, M a r y.

"Our class and the Sophomores fought an inter-class foot-ball game with the juniors and Seniors that year too. Ye s , we were beaten, but what more could one expect o f Freshmen?" "Mary, certainly you haven't forgotten the parry at the Church, and Roma gave us another about two weeks after those dreadful semester tests. T h a t certa:nly took the bad taste out o f our mouths, didn't i t ? " "Remember Worden and Worthington didn't come back after those tests. I wonder why?" "Don't forget that party at Harriet Kenyon's when you were Queen o f Sheba and Margaret Day. Shak Jahan. T h e n there was the picnic at Madison Lake at the very end o f the school year and I for one will say 'we had a picnic'!" "Yes Margaret, but I think there was a great blot on our freshman year and that was that we . lost so many by the t trie we were Soollomores.

Certainly you haven't forgotten how nice the '30' that Vernon Cline made looked on the North wall after we had decorated i t with ' O l d Rose and Silver,' our class colors." "That was the year that M r . Elliot became our Superintendent i n M r . Foster's place and Miss Dairy Williams ruled in Miss Cayon's stead."

I d o this with great pleasure because I know that each o f you has come o f our interests at heart and w i l l help us when we leave the school o f preparation t o enter into the school o f We are glad t o enter the school o f experience because we are anxious t o take our places i n the affairs o f the world and to make a name for ourselves as others who have gone before us have already done Today there are wider and more varied means o f livelihood f o r us than there would have been fifty years ago, f o r the things t h a t a t t h a t time were unknown, are today laid before u s scientists. E v e n yet, however, with all t h a t has been brought forth there are still some things t h a t remain as mysteries i n the world o f science. T h e s e unexplainable phenomena are not confined of the sciences, but are in all o f them. T h e r e is not one science in which everything has So that you will better understand why I have said that there are wider and more varied means o f livelihood for us today than i n the past, let me show you how widespread these phenomena are. L e t us take the science that has existed the longest o f all o f them. I refer t o chemistry. Chemistry has existed ever since the Stone Age. Perhaps at that time, i t was not called chemistry b u t i t tainly was, f o r one o f the first things studied i n chemistry is oxidation o f substances which cases is fire. A t that time, fire was the greatest wonder that existed. I t was made with flint, friction caused b y rubbing two pieces o f wood together. S i n c e then the means o f starting advanced through the match stage to our present electrical system, so that fires have become one ordinary things o f life. Y e t with the long age o f chemistry, there are still three atoms, known t o exist, which have not been found. B u t , just as the ones that have come before, so also, will these be found b y some chemist. Coupled w i t h chemistry and progressing w i t h i t i s another study t h a t has been existing just as long, b u t not as a s:ience. T h i s is electr;city. Perhaps i t will seem strange t o you t o hear me say that electricity dates back t o the Stone A g e also. I t does date back that far, f o r lightning has been known t o exist since the creation; and lightning, we learned is electricity. T h i s science was not portant as chemistry, but i t is now a ne-essitv o f life. I t was known as f a r back as 600 B. C . that when an amber rod was rubbed with a flannel, the rod would attract sritall bits o f paper. attention was paid to this fact because i t could not be explained and could not be used. I n 1600, D r. Gilbert discovered other comb:naticns o f s• bstances that would produce the same effert o n ticles. T h e s e substances were named electrics. I t is from this word that we get the name electricity. Still, not much attention was paid t o these strange phenomena, but i n 1752, Franklin took electricity from the sky by means of a kite, a key. and a piece of string. Since then, men have been working on the theory o f electricity. Foremost among t h e modern scientists i s Edison, who has done more t o further the uses o f electricity than any other person. S t i l l there are other uses of electricity that have not been found. Aviation is our newest science which is now i n its infancy but will some day be as important as the automobile is today. J u s t as now aviation i s i n its infancy, so also d o we know that there are numerous things that the greatest o f aviators are unable t o solve. T h e r e are however, many things dealing w i t h aviation t h a t have been explained and p u t i n t o practice. A t first, m e n were traverse the air only i n crafts lighter than air; so the problem came u p o f designing a heavier-than-air machine that would be practicable. T h i s was solved b y the Wr i g h t Brothers who designed t h e first airplanes. Since then the heavier-than-air machine has been advanced until we are now able to the ocean. Y e t , with all the work that has been done, the perfect airplane has not been made, b u t fome day i t will be as safe as the automobile or train. Last, but not least, we will take u p the wonderful science o f medicine. Ye a r s ago there was no !•cience o f medicines, f o r treatment o f diseases had n o t been advanced f a r enough t o call i t Today, things are changed. I n recent years some o f the most fatal diseases have been found t o have remedies, among these are diphtheria, small pox, and appendicitis. A l t h o u g h this last one does n o t come under the science of,, medicine i t can be placed thus, because surgery has advanced as much as the medical sciences. S o we see that wonderful and almost unbelievable things have been Yet, there has been n o cure f o r the cancer. The sciences that I have mentioned are not the only fields i n which a person might There are many professions that also have their great people such as music, teaching, and business. I t is, however, necessary t o study, prepare, and have patience. T h e s e last three words form the keynote to all advancement made i n any line—whether i t be chemistry, electricity, medicine, o r a profession. For our motto we have chosen one which incompasses study, preparation and patience: H e Conquers Who Endures." I t is the wish o f everyone in the class tonight, t o advance. S o may we all use this motto, and some day, perhaps we, too, can become one o f the best. 0 1 . • • • . • • • • g o • • • • • • • • • • Page F o r t y -One �t ! i ii 1 I S G ( e e n r t i r o u r d e Class History Coon and I n a Brenner I G n a knocks at door). : O h , Hello!

T i m e and space o f the future looms mysteriously before us while youth gropes uncertainly f o r something o n which t o p i n i t s f a i t h and hope. W e have been born i n t o a world, weary, beaten, tragically bitter, yet w i t h t h e determination not to be changed. T h e wonder is that we have not lost faith in life during the merry-go-round tory, as the world repeats the same blunders year after year. A n d so young people, as they are about to commence helping with the affairs o f the world, question old motives, old philosophies, tions—and they are perfectly willing to throw away anything that refuses t o be questioned. L i k e Paul of old, their motto is, "Prove all things, hold fast that which is good." I t is i n this thought that my oration will be centered tonight—to find proof for the right and to hold fast to that which is it is obtained. Will the rising generation hold fast t o that which is good? W i l l the torch o f progress be carried forward i n the coming age, o r will the ashes o f our civilization soon lie with those o f ancient Rome? To these questions, the older generation are giving gloomy answers, and when the younger generation probes into the heart of old beliefs and customs with the big question " W h y, " they are predict calamities f o r the rising generation because they feel that i t is not conforming t o standards set up by them. T h i s is not true. W e are not forsaking that which is good—we are shaking beliefs, as many o f our ancestors before us have had t o do. Y o u t h demands proof f o r all things, old and new, and i t keeps merely that which i t Since the beginning o f history, youth has been denounced f o r its desire t o test all things. B u t only in a desire to prove and question is there any chance for progress. A n d so, like the youth o f all generations, we too wish t o excel the past. W e realize the hard, discouraging facts about the world today—nevertheless, we stand curiously awaiting the dawn ready to look these facts in the fa:e and yet say. "Oho. the glory o f the years t o be. I . too, would labor at their fashioning, I . too, wish t o have the power and the something which might make me face each day on tiptoe with eagerness, equal t o the demands o f life a t every moment." M a y we, the modern youth, move o u t into the unexplored areas o f thinking, where we shall find something o f worth around the corner. H u g e questions our minds and we hope that the education t h a t we have received will help us be the kind o f people able t o live freely and unafraid i n a world o f hatred and fear; able n o t only t o ask questions and tear down, but t o answer and build up; t o be people who can live usefully i n a world o f morality, class pride, race prejudice and international strife—things which we are troubled cause they deny us o f the qualities that education has developed i n us. Before our generation will be able t o live lives which are free and yet d o the work o f the world, we will have t o prove all things, and hold fast t o the good. I t will take keen minds; young people with courage who are not afraid t o doubt existing dogmas, and furthermore, who are not afraid t o talk about i t —young people who love the going forward better than the place where we now are; Page F o r t y -Seven �t . . . . . . . . . . . • - . . . . • • • • - . . - . . - . . - . . - . - . • - . . - . . - . . . . - . . . - . . . . . . . . . . . . • • - . . . . * • • • . . . . . . . • -4 I i I I i n g i more than anything we yet have found.

J u s t because an idea is new. I do tamn that i t is good. I do not advocate the radical. W h a t I do maintain is that i f we are o keep up I a degree o f progress—we must in our individual minds, give new ideas a chance t o prove their worth. I Because o f new ideas we have obtained wonders i n sc;ence, religious freedom, while humanity has been I rescued from the bondage o f autocracy. To d a y modern youth is filled with the new idea, the of investigation—to take nothing for granted. " P r o v e all things, hold fast that which is good.- T h a t is the spirit o f the age o f progress. I I I As we pause now on the threshold, wanting to venture forth, yet not knowing where we want t o I go, with all our doubts, with all our energy and fine spirit, ready t o go whichever way the wind let us think as leaders o f a new day—are we going t o make our generation better? H a v e we g r i t 1 enough t o pay the price? T h e r e are problems f a r more difficult t o overcome than those which fronted our fathers. O u r forefathers scoffed a t the idea that man would sometime travel i n the air.

I t will be the youth o f today who will be the great thinkers of tomorrow in spite of the harsh I criticism o f the older generation. I So at this last gathering together, let us resolve to live according to our own standards, let to learn the truth, let us think our own thoughts, and make our own conclusions. I t is youth who must care f o r the future.

T h r o u g h the four years a school patriotism has steadily developed. so we naturally feel very grateful to those who have made it possible for us to come to this To our parents who have worked and sacrificed t h a t we might finish t h e secondary give our sincere appreciation and hope that all their expectations for us may be fulfilled. Members o f the Faculty—We appreciate your many acts o f kindness, your encouraging words. your timely counsels amidst difficulties. W e thank you at this time for all you have so cheerfully done and tried t o do, and trust that i n years t o come we may demonstrate t o your satisfaction as well as to our own that you were as successful as your ambitions could desire in turning out men and women. Fellow Students, our relationship will soon cease. W e shall enter new fields, but you and you will take our places which we so regretfully leave tonight. T h e memory o f our comradship will not soon fade away. Classmates, we are gathered here together f o r the last time as a class—the Senior class o f '28. Soon many o f us will leave Union City t o take u p our life's work i n other places. W e have gone through h i g h school together coming i n contact every d a y, a n d enjoying each other's friendship. Though our paths lead i n different directions, let us not forget the close associations we have had i n the past four years in Old Union High and remember as we go on into life's school that Who Endures."
